I Obviously Just Want to be a Minor Character CH.14

Chapter 14: You’re talking nonsense!

There was a relationship between the adaptability and compatibility of human and spirit demon bloodlines.

As mentioned earlier, only after taking an illusion potion could a person adapt and take the power of the spirit demon blood within it as their own, fully integrating it into their body. Only then could a human become a hunter.

In such a situation, some humans naturally had a very high level of adaptability and compatibility with spirit demons. This was also true for Xu Qianqian, who inherited the bloodlust of her ancestors.

Now, according to Xu Qianqian’s words, Su Ming’s blood seemed to have some sort of attraction to her.

In other words:

“Your blood is very compatible with mine and even the blood of my family. That’s why I became agitated when I met you.”

This was why Xu Qianqian had noticed Su Ming and paid attention to him.

Having learned the truth, the corner of Su Ming’s lips twitched slightly. He felt he was in a terrible state.

So this female vampire is paying attention to me because she’s craving my body?

Xu Qianqian didn’t know what Su Ming was thinking right now and instead looked around.

“That night, I bit your wrist and unconsciously sucked a bit of your blood. Not only did my injuries heal completely, but I also felt a satisfaction I’d never experienced before, as well as a familiar desire and restlessness.”

At this point, it was clear why Xu Qianqian had noticed that the person who had appeared that night and clashed with her was Su Ming. She had sensed his identity through the taste of his blood and her desire.

That was why she had said those words.

“Others might be fooled by you, but I’m different.”

It was because Su Ming’s blood held a special meaning to this academy’s beauty.

“Honestly, I’m quite surprised,” Xu Qianqian said to Su Ming. “I never thought that you, who I originally thought was just an ordinary student, would actually have such strength.”

Even though she had lost some of her rationality, Xu Qianqian still remembered clearly how Su Ming had played her like a puppet that night.

Even if she was heavily injured and in a poor state of mind, Su Ming had still managed to knock her down with a technique that couldn’t be any more basic. This proved his strength.

Because of her status, Xu Qianqian had crossed paths with many warlocks since she was young. She had fought many of them, including some who were extremely powerful. She had lost to these warlocks a lot of times, but this was the first time she had been defeated so thoroughly by someone her own age.

Therefore, Xu Qianqian estimated that Su Ming’s strength was about the same as hers, and he could have easily taken the top three spots in any division.

Xu Qianqian herself could always secure the top three spots in the  Hunter Division.

This made Xu Qianqian, who thought she understood Su Ming and had been paying attention to him for a long time, surprised and mostly confused.

“If you have this level of strength, why would you be willing to be ordinary and a nobody in the academy?”

Xu Qianqian clearly didn’t know much about human relationships and said her thoughts without hesitation.

“How can I have any strength?” Su Ming naturally wouldn’t admit anything. After figuring out why Xu Qianqian noticed him, he immediately began to give an evasive answer. “If you weren’t in such a bad state that night, I definitely wouldn’t have been able to do that.”

“Is that so?” Xu Qianqian narrowed her eyes.

“Of course.” Su Ming nodded vigorously and said sincerely, “Otherwise, why would I have only used low-level spiritual techniques that night?”

His meaning was clear: He hadn’t intentionally held back that night. He really could only use low-level spiritual techniques.

If he could only use low-level spiritual techniques, then he was obviously a noob, right?

Su Ming was hinting at this, hoping to dispel Xu Qianqian’s curiosity.

Unfortunately…

“I don’t believe you.”

Xu Qianqian’s attitude was always so straightforward.

“It’s not my fault if you don’t believe me.”

Su Ming wore a smile.

After confirming that Xu Qianqian didn’t have a clear understanding of his true strength, Su Ming felt relieved.

As long as his true strength wasn’t exposed, he could continue to fumble through it.

Who made him not use high-level spiritual techniques that night? Who made him only use one technique the entire time?

This was proof that he was a noob!

Sure enough, he was a clever little thing!

Xu Qianqian stared at Su Ming, trying to see through him, but of course she failed.

However, Xu Qianqian didn’t care.

“You don’t want to admit it, and I can’t force you to. But I’ll keep an eye on you.”

This little girl seemed to be ready to fight with Su Ming.

Su Ming’s smile became forced.

Fuck, is she going to keep staring at me like this?

If that was the case, then he would no longer be able to do those shameful things in secret!

No way!

Su Ming immediately prepared himself to have a proper talk with this female vampire and make her give up on this dangerous idea.

However, Xu Qianqian changed the topic first.

“Why were you here that night?”

Xu Qianqian suddenly asked.

“And you?” Su Ming’s attention was successfully shifted, but he didn’t answer and instead asked, “Why were you here?”

“I followed a suspicious group here.” Xu Qianqian didn’t hide it. “I’ve been tracking them for a long time.”

Why?

Su Ming almost blurted out the question.

But after some careful thought, he stopped himself.

After all, he had chosen to ignore the incident and the suspicious group that night in order to avoid unnecessary trouble. Since he had already done so, why should he get involved in this now?

It was better to not ask and not know.

“This actually has something to do with my mission.”

Xu Qianqian was ready to explain.

“Stop!”

Su Ming called out to her.

“What’s wrong?”

Xu Qianqian was taken aback.

“Nothing.” Su Ming said very succinctly, “I just think that since this is your mission, it must be a very important secret. It’s best if you don’t tell me about it, a mere Minor character, about such an important matter, don’t you think?”

Even with Xu Qianqian’s calmness and straightforwardness, she couldn’t help but choke at these words.

“But I…”

Xu Qianqian frowned, as if she still wanted to say something.

“Don’t say it!”

Su Ming immediately cut her off.

“But…”

Xu Qianqian still wanted to continue.

“I’m not listening, I’m not listening, I’m not listening! (」▽、「)”

Su Ming covered his ears like a little girl throwing a tantrum.

Xu Qianqian was dumbfounded.

This high and mighty young lady probably never imagined that Su Ming would act like this.

Seeing that Su Ming was about to slip away, even the cold and aloof Xu Qianqian started to panic.

“I need your help!”

Xu Qianqian could only grab Su Ming’s arm to prevent him from escaping.

However, Xu Qianqian underestimated the extent of Su Ming’s shamelessness.

“Aiya! You’re hurting me!”

Su Ming cried out like a little girl who had been caught by a wild man.

“S-sorry!”

Xu Qianqian thought she (the strong and powerful hunter) really had hurt Su Ming (the delicate and powerless warlock) with her powerful hunter’s grip. She subconsciously apologised and let go.

“It’s fine, I forgive you.”

Su Ming’s expression changed immediately, then he turned around and ran.

“???”

Xu Qianqian’s head was filled with question marks, unsure if she should ask them or not.

She only knew that she had been fooled by Su Ming.

“You…”

Even someone as strong as Xu Qianqian couldn’t help but feel angry.

Thus, Xu Qianqian’s figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.

Su Ming was too busy running away to notice a figure suddenly appear before him. He instinctively raised his spiritual energy.

Yet unexpectedly, Xu Qianqian moved first before he could do anything.

“Shh!”

Xu Qianqian lightly touched her slender waist and removed her belt, then flung it out like a whip.

The scene was almost as if a fairy was dancing and undressing at the same time. It was extremely pleasing to the eye.

Su Ming couldn’t help but feel his heart flutter at this sudden sight from such a close distance.

This slight hesitation slowed Su Ming down by a second, which made him cry out in his head, Oh no.

“Whoosh!”

Amidst the sound of the wind, the belt wrapped around Su Ming’s body while he was frozen in place.

The belt was like a real rope that coiled around Su Ming’s body several times before finally binding him up.

“Bitch!”

Su Ming’s expression changed as he cursed at Xu Qianqian.

“I can’t believe you used the beauty trap on me, Xu Qianqian. You’re such a bitch!”

His condemnation was so righteous it would have made anyone think Xu Qianqian really had used some sort of beauty trap.

“I didn’t!”

Xu Qianqian grabbed her skirt and argued back as if she was angry.

“You did!”

Su Ming seemed determined to pin this crime on her.

“I didn’t!” Xu Qianqian continued to argue back. “If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll suck you dry!”

Now it was Su Ming’s turn to be speechless.

If she said that, wouldn’t the beauty trap become a reality?

If this girl wasn’t his enemy, Su Ming would have really wanted to say, “Come on then!”

The Demon-Hunting Academy’s famous beauty was going to suck him dry?

Just thinking about it was exciting!
