l POV
Hehehe... this is just as I planned!
As l lted into a blushing ss within Maria's grasp, she secretly conjured a coback and surprise plan tonight.
No longer will she surrender easily under her Partner; this ti, she'll 'pretend' submission and surprise by topping her tonight!
A foxy smile curled across l's heated cheeks as her back slid up Maria's embrace.
In her passion to outwit the Saintess, Maria drew idle circles on l as she viewed her 'future' with the .
"Hehe..."
Adoring chuckles escaped her as she licked her l's ear in delight.
"Hic! Partner..." The tickly sensation jolted l awake, as she squird under Maria.
"Shh... l..." Maria puffed hot breaths into her ear. "Rember, Lila was listening to us as well."
'Lila... Lila...'
l's thoughts echoed in the , reminding herself she was not in a *REDACTED* doujin.
Then, both paused as the swirly breeze brushed up snow in the air.
"Uh..."
The breeze eventually cald, then swirled around them like a tornado again.
Yet before l's lips parted to ask, it died down again suddenly.
'This is...'
"Hm."
A regretful frown spread across Maria's face as she pulled away, staring across the snowy night sky.
Uneven winds, snow thickening and thinning at an urgent pace, and most notably to Envy...
She opened her palm to catch a pile of snow. Then another.
So cold enough to freeze a man over a drop. Yet so hollow-feel without heat or chill at all.
"Yep." Maria nodded to herself. "That's the sign of Envy fighting."
'Hm? Lila's fighting?'
As Maria nonchalantly admired l's shocked face, she warmly smiled.
"Absolutely. It would seem..."
A pause in the air as Maria closed her eyes, then re-opened them.
"Oh, she's currently... flinging icicles at Wrath now!"
'Eh?!'
l's lips gaped, her hat almost shaken off in shock before Maria's fingers caught the tip.
"What-"
Stamring, l coughed twice before continuing her .
'Why was she fighting Wrath now? Don-don't you think that will trigger Pride to... You know.'
A malicious shadow covered half of Maria's face as she stared sowhere in quiet contemplation.
"I don't think you need to worry."
Her grasp over l's waist tightened, her thighs splitting before sliding against l.
'Ah...' l held back a moan, steadying to relay her thoughts. 'But... given how emotionally sensitive she was last ti...'
"I'm serious, l. I'm not lying."
Maria sighed. "That Family-seeking Pride was, unfortunately, huddling in a corner while crying now."
l froze; Maria's possessive touch faded in irrelevance upon hearing the news.
'Miss Pride was... crying again?'
"Of course she would."
A sad tone took root in Maria's voice, more towards l's ignorance of their flirts than sympathy for Pride herself.
Hesitation marred her mind, yet it lted upon observing l's warm yet concerned look.
Eying Nyrel's disheartened self, her arms dangling to allow the indifferent maid to be held, Maria shrugged.
"Pride saw one of her children blatantly disregarding the Principles she set up."
Then disgust crept up Maria's throat. "Despite her... unique experience, it eluded how naive Pride was for her 'family'..."
"Maria."
This ti, l spoke with resolve as she turned and faced her Partner with a steel stare.
"Leave Miss Pride alone for now, Maria."
She narrowed her eyes for Maria's, now without her usual blindfold.
Maria's brows raised subtly, yet the observant l caught the fear flickering across Maria's eyes.
She knew not what her Partner was thinking, yet her hands raised to cup both of her cheeks.
"My Partner." A teasing grin blood on her lips. "I understand your distaste for Pride since you've fought her for a long ti, but please... give her so mont."
As much as l wished to rush for a visit to Miss Pride herself, her Partner held the ultimate key to Miss Pride's seal.
So, l wished the Saintess ti to progress their history with Pride to ensure Miss Pride was at least allowed so leniency before then.
"l..."
Yet Maria's golden eyes pierced through l's, her hands raising to cup l's.
"Sorry for my venting." The Saintess's face softened. "And please. You do not need to ask for my permission."
"Eh?"
"I said, you do not need to ask for my permission to visit Pride."
A looming smirk on Maria's face, before she lowered her hands behind l's thighs.
"For a price, of course."
Then, without warning, she scooped l up.
"Hic!"
Yelping, her thighs clasped over Maria's waist; her skirt half-exposed as she snapped her gaze behind her on instinct.
Nyxia and Nyrel were both 'frozen', unaware of this embarrassing scenery ahead of them.
"Maria... Partner..."
She whimpered out, her hands gripping Maria's neck.
"Relax... soothe yourself..."
Licking her lips, Maria breathed onto l's neck. "Rember my offer, l."
Her hips buckled up against l's, while her palms smoothed over her thighs-
Then grasped l's bum lightly.
"Ah-ah..."
The Witch of Lust nodded. "Mm. I will..."
Maria's eyes smiled in satisfaction.
It bugged Maria once; how she disliked forcing l against her own will.
Then, as she touched l, her l, more and more, she broke her promise to herself as Maria contemplated a fair, calculated plan.
She would prioritise l's happiness.
But... who couldn't say she couldn't shift l's happiness solely to be hers and hers alone?
"Good."
l blinked away her tears as she glanced at her surroundings with wondrous eyes.
Greyness occupied every corner; snows halted mid-air like the distant clouds.
"Maria..."
As her partner's forehead clung to hers, she faced Maria's mischievous, heated gaze.
"Yes, l. I'm just preparing against our descent to stop Envy's fighting."
Her lips neared l's. "But before we do, let's present a more... graceful self for her before we do?"
One palm continued to tease her bum, as another slid over her back before claiming her hair.
"Consent." She murmured. "I know you want to."
The creepy tone scared l, as her thighs wetted in the promise of pleasure.
Yet in the trance, the Witch smiled as her neck bowed.
Then, her tongue darted out and swiped against Maria's cheek.
"Hehe..."
A childish giggle escaped her as l gazed into Maria's shaken eyes.
"You're also blushing, my Partner."
Maria blinked; her cheeks further flushed as she panted.
"I know. Of course you're not embarrassed..."
She murmured as her lips frowned.
"Because I feel the sa as you... Partner..."
A breath caught in Maria's throat as she gasped at the wetness that clung to her robe.
"I... hehe..."
A hushed chuckle, then l tilted her head.
"Just a little..."
Maria's mock-calmness shattered on l's blushing submission.
Her rationality told her she shouldn't.
The original plan was always to leave l hanging for tonight, before she suggested l date Lila.
So that l would have her in mind more, so that she could occupy l's thoughts a while longer.
Yet as her hand loosened on l's cheek, l's hands remained firm on hers.
The warmth, sickeningly sweet as if ripe for breaking.
"Heh..."
She took l's hand, as her golden eyes suddenly shone.
Then, the grey World expanded itself, stretching beyond the horizon as far as she liked.
"You win, l."
Facing l's confused glance, Maria squinted as she tilted her head and licked l's palm.
"As always."
Her lips stuttered before confessing.
"I can never win against you."
Then, they teleported out, blinking out of existence.
The grey world continued to expand, for l and hers alone.

Wrath POV
"Senior! Please stop running!"
Lila shouted as Wrath sprinted and weaved through frosted trees at zooming speed, as shadows lood over the entire forest.
The falling snows, once gentle winter that never hurt anyone, now turned icicles against the running Wrath.
Worse, so harmless snows mixed in as traps; a tactic all too familiar to Wrath.
As she lifted her blade to mix dodges with slashes against the spiked ice, Wrath shouted.
"Aren't we all fellow Witches? Shouldn't we all calm down and-"
"Yes! I'm very calm!"
Lila scread as she amplified snow glitters on the frozen bark, snapping it in half and continuing to chase Wrath in clumsy steps.
"I'm just... asserting my place right now!"
She pouted, recalling an embarrassed l.
"You can take it regardless. l wouldn't care for a friendly spar as long as we're both not hurt!"
With her trait, Lila was sure she could sohow freeze wounds 'pain' away.
"Tch."
Recalling Envy's impulsive and unshaful nature, Wrath's steps continued forward-
Then ground stop, as a wave of greyness washed over her.
With her shocked gaze up, Wrath quickly flicked the blade-
And slashed nothing.
"What?"
Confusion marred her mind, as her eyes drifted over to the 'grey' scenery; all snows and leaves ceased fluttering in this grey-filled world.
"Ha?"
Lila, too, ca to a halt.
Having received her power just now, her senses were enhanced to monitor the entire world.
Yet as the greyness encroached further and further, beyond even this forest...
The Witch of Envy felt as if the World slipped away from her grasp, away from her vision, away from her hearing.
"What is... what is this?"
Whispering out, Lila snapped her gaze and locked onto Wrath's, questioning as if it was her doing.
Wrath rely glanced away, slightly annoyed.
Judging how she failed, it seed to her that Maria had acted impulsively on her own, again.
The principle behind the grey world was simple: A
