After all the noise, Owen looked sincere and said to Logan, "Logan, a high school student's spirit power can only bind one familiar."
"A C-level succubus is almost the worst in C-level familiars. Choose the Silver-maned Griffin. That's the best choice."
The guild representatives nearby all nodded and agreed.
At least Logan would have a B-level familiar as a backup. Whether it was for the college entrance exam or joining the army, he had a chance to get a high score.
Plus, with the five million he just got, Logan could quickly grow into a strong familiar master. It just meant his future achievements wouldn't be very high.
Thinking this, the crowd started to slowly leave.
"Hey, commoners should know their place. I thought Logan might get lucky."
"Nancy Priest just said the gods don't bless the same person twice."
...
Hearing the change in public opinion, Nancy Priest finally sighed in relief. Her eyes softened when she looked at Logan.
"Poor kid, it's not your fault."
"Bind the Silver-maned Griffin. The light will be with you."
She took the Silver-maned Griffin from the knight's hand, and walked slowly toward Logan.
In the center of the altar.
The succubus heard the surrounding talk. Her eyes darkened. Her look toward Logan changed from hope to worry.
That strong human said the boy could only bind one familiar.
If he bound that ugly bird, what would happen to me?
Would that boy abandon me?
As Nancy Priest was about to get close, the succubus's body started to tremble with nervousness.
At that moment, Logan stood in the center of the altar, his eyes moving between the succubus and the Silver-maned Griffin.

...
After reading the two familiars' info panels, Logan felt a deep sense of warning.
Something's wrong!
This Lilith is very strange!
Even though her rank is only C-grade 1 star, her bloodline is way too strong.
A Demon King? That's way better than an angel, right?
Since I can see the hidden information, it's only a matter of time before Lilith awakens her demon king power.
It's just a bit troublesome to raise her. Well, I guess I'll have to suffer a little on my own tongue.
Thinking this, Logan silently told himself that he was doing this to get stronger, not for any beauty.
Then, Logan looked at Nancy Priest, his eyes full of disgust.
A fool would choose the Silver-maned Griffin from the Temple. Who knows if that bird is just a hormone-made fake.
So, before Nancy Priest could get close, Logan immediately pressed his hand to the forehead of the succubus Lilith.
Soon, Logan and Lilith's spirit power merged.
The surprise came without warning. When Lilith felt the mental mark in her mind, she burst into tears of joy and threw herself into Logan's arms.
Watching the two of them hugging in front of everyone, Nancy Priest stood between them like a wedding officiant, and she exploded:"Logan, why didn't you listen to me?"
"Are you doing this for beauty? Are you willing to throw away your future?"
Hearing Nancy Priest's angry tone, Logan turned around and smiled:"What are you talking about? I should thank Nancy Priest. Thanks to your blessing, I was able to bind such a great dark-type familiar."
"Especially since she's so pretty. Nancy Priest, I have to say, your taste is really good."
Logan's words were full of flattery, but Nancy Priest was so angry her lips were trembling. She couldn't argue back, though.
Finally, she could only say, "Take care of yourself," before leaving with the Holy Knight Order.
Logan saw this and grinned.
He wasn't someone who'd let himself be taken advantage of. Since Nancy Priest had called him average, he was going to make a mess of the Temple in return.
Now that the crowd had scattered, he was ready to take Lilith home and start training her.
But on the way, the two of them were stopped by Jessica, who was riding a golden deer.
"Logan, how are you going to pay me back for taking advantage of me this morning?" Jessica stood tall with her hands on her hips, pretending she had been wronged. "I'm telling you, it's not just one ten thousand... no, not even two ten thousand, I won't forgive you!"
She was about to step forward and pull Logan's collar when a phone transfer notification rang out.
"Your account has received 200,000..."
Seeing an extra zero, Jessica's expression froze. Her voice stumbled:"I, I won't... I won't return this money to you."
"This is a prepayment for your trouble. Please buy ten barrels of Moonflower Dew for me and deliver them to my house later," Logan said, and then sent her one million.
Looking at Logan's back as he left, Jessica was completely stunned:"Is this what a rich guy looks like?"
"Still, I like it!"
After saying that, Jessica turned around and ran toward the trading market, running while humming a country rock song.
When she came back to the street, carrying ten barrels of Moonflower Dew, she attracted a lot of strange looks and whispers.
"Tsk... tsk... tsk..."
"Hey, kid, at least try to be modest."
"Does she do something special for a living?"
Now that Jessica had bound a familiar, her body's abilities were partially enhanced by the golden deer, especially her hearing, which became more sensitive than normal.
As all kinds of comments reached her ears, Jessica's fists clenched tighter and tighter.
Finally, when she met a boy's strange look again, she stepped in front of him and shouted, "Speak! Why are you looking at me like that?"
"N-no... nothing!" The boy answered, stuttering, but his tone was firm.
After a round of beating, the boy finally crouched on the ground and whispered to Jessica, "The Moonflower Dew you're holding is the most expensive sex toy on the market. It's super smooth."
"I never use it even when I sneak around with my buddy's girlfriend. But you're carrying ten full barrels. Doesn't that seem strange?"
After hearing this, Jessica's expression was priceless.
She held back her anger and sent the boy away, then screamed, "Logan! You bastard!"
Finally, after Logan paid her another ten thousand for the delivery, Jessica was satisfied and happily left Logan's small house.
At this moment, night had fallen.
Lilith stood nervously by the side of Logan's bed, careful and shy.
It wasn't that Logan wanted to do anything. It was just that his house was so small, with only one bed and a pair of tables and chairs. It was too cramped.
"Master, can we eat now?"
Logan looked at the instant noodles on the table and slowly started thinking.
After a long time, he finally looked up at Lilith and said with a firm voice, "Do you want to live in a big house, eat good food, and drink nice drinks?"
"YES!" Lilith, as a succubus, also longed for comfort and luxury.
Seeing that Lilith had taken the bait, Logan smiled and took a big sip of noodles.
"Then you need to work hard and get stronger as fast as you can."
Hearing that Logan wanted her to get stronger, Lilith's eager energy suddenly disappeared.
"I... I'm so weak. Can I really do it?"
"You say I can, then I can. You're going to be a demon king one day!" Logan continued to trick her.
"A demon king? Master, I didn't put any alcohol in your noodles. Are you drunk?" Lilith looked at Logan, confused.
Logan didn't care. He grabbed her hand and said, "Even demons need dreams!"
Then, Logan took a bottle of Moonflower Dew, put it in his mouth, and kissed Lilith's lips.
In the days that followed, Logan used Moonflower Dew to train Lilith every day, following the hints from the hidden information.
Unexpectedly, Lilith was a succubus who knew how to return the favor.
Whatever way Logan trained her, she gave it back to him tenfold. This made Logan suffer a lot.
After more than ten days of hard work, Lilith's rank went from C-grade 1 star to B-grade 2 stars. She also awakened an extra skill:Enslave Mind.
Looking at Lilith's growth, Logan wiped his mouth and was very satisfied.
"This rate of evolution, she'll eventually beat Diana."
