Chapter 1: The Hypnotized Magical Girl

“Big Sister… ah…”

A soft moan escaped the girl’s lips, laced with dependence and infatuation, echoing in the quiet hypnosis chamber.

The air was thick with the scent of cedarwood and white tea, enveloping the mind in a soothing embrace.

This was Bai Wanting’s exclusive hypnosis room.

A sanctuary that shielded them from the chaos of the outside world, crafted solely for the girl she cherished… a gilded cage.

Lin Qingya lay on the custom hypnosis recliner, her body completely relaxed, her consciousness long submerged in silence.

Her long lashes trembled faintly under Bai Wanting’s caresses, but beyond that, she made no other movement.

Her mind was a chaotic void of darkness—no direction, no time, only a single voice, a single touch, her sole beacon in the abyss.

Bai Wanting’s fingertip lingered at Lin Qingya’s brow, the warmth of her touch searing into the deepest layers of the girl’s perception.

Her slender fingers began to trace slow, rhythmic circles.

Each rotation deepened the chaos in Lin Qingya’s mind, thickening the fog within her.

Today marked the seventh day of Lin Qingya’s hypnosis treatment.

Bai Wanting gazed at the defenseless sleeping face before her, the girl’s delicate, flawless features breathtakingly beautiful.

Pure, fragile, and utterly captivating.

A scorching emotion churned in Bai Wanting’s chest.

There was tenderness, desire, and an overwhelming urge to possess this girl completely.

“Xiao Ya…”

Her voice was low, laced with an enchanting allure.

“Tell Big Sister, who is the person you love most?”

This question, she asked every day.

Each time, it reinforced the hypnotic suggestions she had planted in Lin Qingya’s mind.

The girl on the recliner trembled faintly, her vacant eyes devoid of focus, simply receiving the command and delivering the pre-programmed response.

“The person I love most… is Big Sister…”

Her voice wavered, ethereal, and merely uttering the title sent a shiver of delight through her subconscious.

“Well done.”

Bai Wanting was thoroughly pleased with the answer. She leaned down, gently pinching Lin Qingya’s soft cheek.

“Big Sister loves honest children.”

Her fingertips glided slowly across Lin Qingya’s tender cheek, savoring the familiar warmth and smoothness.

A sickening possessiveness took root in her heart, growing wild and untamed.

Seven days.

A full seven days!

Seven sessions, seven rounds of hypnosis, seven relentless invasions of the mind!

The girl before her was an uncarved gem, pure and radiant.

But soon, this gem would bear only one name—Bai Wanting’s.

Lin Qingya’s mental defenses were like a sandcastle eroding under relentless tides, crumbling, collapsing.

After careful consideration, Bai Wanting decided it was time to advance to the next phase.

She needed to test the depth of this hypnosis.

Her gaze locked onto Lin Qingya’s hollow eyes, her voice once again dripping with seduction.

“So, if you had to choose between becoming Big Sister’s girlfriend or giving up your identity as a magical girl, which would you pick?”

The words fell.

Lin Qingya’s faintly trembling body froze abruptly.

For the first time, a flicker of struggle and pain surfaced in her vacant, lifeless eyes.

Becoming Big Sister’s girlfriend—this thought filled her with an intoxicating sweetness and longing.

But abandoning her magical girl identity—this idea unleashed a heart-wrenching fear and sense of betrayal.

Lin Qingya began to shake her head unconsciously, her expression twisting in agony.

Fine beads of sweat seeped from her forehead, soon dampening the strands of hair at her temples.

“No… don’t…”

She murmured, her voice fractured, brimming with fear.

At that moment, a pair of cat-ear-shaped accessories materialized atop Lin Qingya’s head, emitting a faint white glow.

Bai Wanting’s gaze turned icy.

She glared venomously at the cat ears, cursing them in her mind with every vile word she could muster.

That damned magical girl transformation device…

If forcibly removing it wouldn’t reduce a magical girl to an idiot, she’d have destroyed it long ago, like Homura Akemi slaughtering QB for sport.

Clearly, a direct assault would only provoke the fiercest resistance.

It might even unravel all the progress made over these seven days.

“Alright, Xiao Ya, stop thinking about that question.”

Bai Wanting swiftly changed tactics, her voice softening into a soothing, comforting tone.

She reached out with her other hand, gently stroking the girl’s sweat-dampened hair, calming her with the familiar method.

“It’s okay now. It’s all over.”

Her voice carried a strange, guiding power, slowly dismantling the mental barriers Lin Qingya had just erected.

“Forget it. Forget the question that caused you pain.”

“It’s alright. Everything is behind you now.”

Under her soothing words, Lin Qingya’s intense struggling gradually subsided, her rigid body softening.

The turmoil in her eyes faded, replaced once more by emptiness and confusion.

The cat ears flickered briefly before vanishing.

Bai Wanting knew that, while risky, the probe had not been fruitless.

She understood that the hypnosis was progressing quickly, though the timing wasn’t fully ripe.

She needed more refined methods.

No more binary confrontations like that one—she had to bypass the defenses, dismantling the fortress from within.

Her goal wasn’t just to make Lin Qingya abandon her magical girl identity.

She wanted her to despise that perilous role.

She had to subtly twist the concept of “magical girl” from an emblem of love and justice into a synonym for pain, harm, and sin.

Until one day, Lin Qingya would willingly cast that identity aside.

And then… she would obediently become hers.

Bai Wanting’s fingertip returned to the girl’s brow, her focus intensifying, a faint purple glow emanating from her touch.

She guided Lin Qingya’s consciousness deeper, into the darkest recesses.

She aimed to strip away Lin Qingya’s ability to think, leaving only the instinct to obey.

“Xiao Ya… you feel so comfortable now… so relaxed…”

“You won’t feel pain anymore, nor struggle…”

“You’ll accept all of Big Sister’s commands, won’t you?”

Lin Qingya’s gaze was vacant, her eyes a bottomless pool of dim submission.

Her lips moved mechanically.

“Yes, I’ll obey all of Big Sister’s commands…”

Bai Wanting smiled faintly, her tone returning to its initial warmth and kindness.

She leaned down, whispering into Lin Qingya’s ear at a volume only they could hear:

“Then, let’s begin today’s lesson…”
