ISEKAI? More like I See Crap!-Chapter 61: Slumbering Secrets ( )

Ellyn knelt beside Hazuki, carefully checking his condition.

He had fainted.

But—

Inside, his mana had finally settled.

She let out a small breath of relief.

Yet—

Her hands were still trembling.

What she just saw...

It wasn’t normal.

It wasn’t possible.

"If I didn’t control his mana just now..."

"This entire area would have been problem."

She stared at Hazuki’s unconscious face, her eyes filled with shock.

"Uncle... just what are you...?"

She had seen many talented warriors, mages, and nobles before.

But never—

Never had she seen someone with a mana pool this large.

"It’s like an entire ocean of mana is inside him."

Yet—

He had no control over it.

"No wonder he couldn’t feel mana at first... His body wasn’t leaking small amounts like normal people—it was sealed shut. But the moment it opened..."

It exploded.

Like a dam breaking all at once.

Ellyn clenched her fists, still processing everything.

"If someone finds out about this..."

She bit her lip.

Hazuki was in danger.

But for now—

She needed to make sure he was okay.

She gently placed her hand on his forehead.

Then—

She smiled softly.

"Haaa... You really are a troublesome Uncle."

Ellyn took a deep breath, steadying herself.

Hazuki was unconscious, his mana finally settled—

But she couldn’t ignore the truth.

"His mana... it’s beyond anything I’ve ever seen."

She needed to be sure.

Slowly—

She activated her Absolute Eye.

Her iris shifted, glowing with a complex, mystic pattern.

Then—

She placed her hand over his.

The hand that bore the Pinky Promise ring.

Immediately—

The ring pulsed with energy.

A soft hum echoed through the air, like an ancient force awakening.

Ellyn bit her lip.

"This is dangerous... but it’s the only way."

Then—

She leaned down.

And—

She pressed a gentle kiss against his lips.

The moment their lips touched—

A brilliant light erupted around them.

The Pinky Promise ring glowed fiercely, releasing a radiant aura that engulfed them both.

The sacred oath had been fully sealed.

A mystical golden path of light extended from their rings, connecting their fates completely.

Ellyn felt it—

A rush of memories. A future unseen.

Hazuki’s potential laid bare before her.

And deep inside—

The ancient power of the Pinky Promise activated at last.

As Ellyn kissed Hazuki, the Pinky Promise’s sacred light surrounded them.

Then—

She felt it.

A massive surge of mana flowing into her.

"W-What is this...?"

The power rushed through her veins, her body responding instinctively.

Then—

It happened.

Her small frame began to shift. Her limbs stretched, her figure matured—

In mere moments, her childlike form was gone.

And in its place—

A fully grown woman.

Beautiful. Mature. Stunning.

Her features sharpened, her curves fully developed—

But—

There was one big problem.

Her clothes...

They were still the size of a child’s.

Ellyn panicked, clutching at herself.

She wasn’t supposed to show this!

"No, no, no! Uncle can’t see me like this!!!"

This was her real form.

The form she had been hiding for years.

The truth was—

Her power allowed her to suppress her real appearance, making her look like a child.

It was a disguise.

A way to escape from bad people.

She frantically looked at Hazuki—

Still unconscious.

"Good! He didn’t see anything!!!"

But then—

Hazuki stirred.

"Ugh... wha... what happened...?"

Ellyn’s ears flattened in pure horror.

Without hesitation—

She chopped him in the neck.

"Guh—!"

Hazuki didn’t even get to finish a thought before his eyes rolled back—

And he collapsed again.

Ellyn exhaled, her entire body trembling.

But then—

She looked down at herself.

Her grown-up body was still there.

Her bare skin felt cold from where her clothes had torn.

Her ears twitched.

Her tail puffed up.

And then—

She scrambled, wrapping the blanket around herself, looking for a way to reverse the transformation before Hazuki woke up again.

Time was running out.

And she was NOT ready for him to see this.

Ellyn took a deep breath, focusing.

"Eyes activate. Mana flow control."

Her eyes glowed as intricate patterns surfaced.

Slowly—

She guided the overwhelming mana within her, forcing it to stabilize.

Her adult frame began to shrink—

Her mature curves vanished—

And—

She returned to her usual childlike form. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

"Fewh... lucky Uncle didn’t see it."

She exhaled in relief, wiping her forehead.

But—

"Crap! My clothes are still ruined!!!"

She rushed inside, quickly changing into a fresh dress.

Then—

She stepped back outside, adjusting her sleeves.

"Alright... now I just have to wake Uncle u—"

Then—

She froze.

Hazuki was still lying there.

A bubble of spit slowly expanding and shrinking from his mouth.

"A-AH!!!"

She rushed to his side, shaking him.

"U-Uncle! Wake up!!!"

But—

He was completely out cold.

"I-Idiot! I didn’t hit you that hard!!!"

Ellyn poked his cheek.

"Oi... stop making that stupid face and wake up!!!"

Yet—

Hazuki remained in his own dream world.

Ellyn groaned, clutching her head.

This—

Was going to be a problem.

Meanwhile...

Hazuki stood in the middle of an endless plain.

A gentle breeze brushed against his face.

In the distance—

A wide river split the land into two sides.

On his side—

Nothing but grass and sky.

But on the other side—

"Hazuki~~ come ~ it’s beautiful here~~"

Hazuki blinked.

"Huh? Where am I?"

"Hazukiii~~"

He focused his gaze.

Then—

He saw them.

A group of stunning, breathtakingly beautiful women—waving at him from across the river.

"Hazuki~~"

Their voices were sweet, angelic.

Hazuki’s brain went blank.

"Hazuki~ come and join us~"

"Really? I’m comi—!!"

Then—

Someone grabbed him by the collar.

Hazuki stumbled, stopping just before stepping into the river.

"H-Huh?!"

Then—

He turned.

And froze.

Before him stood a gorgeous cat-eared woman.

Nice melons. Gorgeous curves. Pure "Yummy."

"W-Wow..."

The girl tilted her head and smiled sweetly.

"It’s not your time yet."

She grabbed his collar.

"Wait, what—?"

And—

She threw him BACKWARD like a sack of potatoes.

"UWAAAHHHHH!!!"

Hazuki fell—

Straight down.

Meanwhile, in reality...

Ellyn was panicking.

"Damn it, Uncle! I didn’t chop your neck that hard!!!"

She placed both hands on his chest, activating her Absolute Eye.

"Absolute Healing—Activate!"

A soft glow surrounded Hazuki’s body.

Ellyn gritted her teeth.

"What the hell is wrong with you?! Stop being dramatic and WAKE UP!!!"

Yet—

Hazuki remained unconscious.

Ellyn groaned.

This idiot—

"Uncle, wake up!!!"

SLAP!!!

"OUCHHH!!"

Hazuki shot up, clutching his burning cheek.

"Wha—?!"

His neck hurt. His face hurt. His soul hurt.

"What just happened?!"

Ellyn smiled innocently, quickly hiding her hand behind her back.

"You were sleeping while training!"

Hazuki blinked.

"Huh? Me? Sleeping?"

Ellyn nodded rapidly.

"Y-Yes! Totally!"

Hazuki rubbed his sore face, frowning.

"Then why does my neck hurt... and my face hurt?!"

Ellyn looked away, pretending to think.

"Umm... maybe because of your... sleeping posture?"

Hazuki squinted at her.

"Really?"

Ellyn kept nodding.

"Yes. Definitely. No other reason at all."

Hazuki stared at her suspiciously.

"...Alright. That makes sense."

Ellyn exhaled in relief.

"Oh thank God, he’s an idiot."

Hazuki rubbed his cheek again, wincing.

"Wait... then why does my face feel like someone slapped me?!"

Ellyn froze.

He could still feel the burning sensation of her handprint on his face.

"Wait a minute—"

Ellyn quickly turned away.

"ANYWAY! Let’s continue your training, Uncle!"

Hazuki narrowed his eyes.

"...Something feels off."

She casually hid her glowing hand behind her back.

"N-No way! You’re imagining things!"

Hazuki yawned, stretching.

"Man... I had the weirdest dream..."

Ellyn just smiled.

Choosing not to comment.

She was NOT explaining what just happened.

Nope.

Never.

Let him stay clueless.
