The call ended.
A series of beeps sounded.
Shiho Miyano sighed helplessly.
It wasn't that she didn't want to say it, but that she didn't know how to say it.
Bluntly stating the facts would only make her sister worry more.
After all, what happened today was too shocking to her worldview.
Even she felt like it was a dream.
After an unknown amount of time, a series of fragrant aromas wafted over.
"Come on, dinner's ready."
Shiho Miyano came to the dining room, looked at the table full of dishes, and subconsciously said, "Master, you really can do this?"
Mapo tofu, braised pork ribs, sweet and sour spinach... Had her master studied in the East?
"It's been a long time since I last cooked. Have a taste."
Taking the chopsticks from Linde's hand, Shiho Miyano picked up a piece of rib and bit into it gently.
Her eyes lit up.
"Is it good?"
"Mm-hmm, it's really delicious."
"That's good. Now, pay the food bill."
"Huh?"
Shiho Miyano's eyes widened, and she pointed at herself, "You're asking me for money?"
Linde said righteously, "Isn't it only natural for a subordinate to support their master?"
"Heh heh."
Miyano Shiho twitched the corner of her mouth, but still obediently took out her small wallet.
No choice.
Linde was her master.
He had the right to interpret things in all sorts of ways.
Then, Miyano Shiho turned her indignation into appetite and began to eat heartily.
Linde held the wallet, looking at the thick wad of money.
He nodded in satisfaction.
His Retainer/Subordinate was a small rich woman.
After eating and drinking to her heart's content.
Miyano Shiho finally remembered the main business and asked, "By the way, Master, when will you teach me some demonic skills?"
She could only fly now, which was too embarrassing for a demon.
"Don't worry, I'll teach you even if you don't ask."
Linde raised his hand and gently waved it towards the table, and a purple Magic Circle appeared.
The next moment.
A magic book had already appeared on the table.
Seeing this, a hint of excitement flashed in Miyano Shiho's eyes.
Was this a magic book?
She was finally going to learn magic too.
"This book is all about the basic knowledge of magic; you can read it first, and if you don't understand anything, you can ask me."
Miyano Shiho no longer heard what Linde was saying.
She flipped through the book, completely immersed in the ocean of magical knowledge.
Linde watched all this quietly, taking a can of iced cola from the refrigerator and drinking it.
Buzz!
A moment later.
Miyano Shiho was seen holding the book in one hand, and her other hand slightly raised.
Amidst a burst of light, a dark red Magic Circle had already appeared on the ground.
"I succeeded."
Miyano Shiho's face was full of excitement.
As her movements changed, the light of the Magic Circle also flickered continuously.
"This is the power of the Heart of Magic."
Looking at this scene, a look of admiration appeared on Linde's face.
These basic spells...
Could she basically control them freely with just a glance?
Who knows how much time passed.
Miyano Shiho had mastered nearly half of the spells in the magic book.
She was still in high spirits.
However... when she turned the page again, she felt a dizzy spell and fell straight onto the sofa.
Her slippers slipped off with the movement, and her mutton-fat jade-colored toes curled on the floor.
And the delicate lines of her legs were as crystal clear as jade under the light.
Seeing this scene, Linde put down his cola and said solemnly, "What, my Retainer/Subordinate has opened her mind and is preparing to seduce her master?"
"Master, is your mind full of dirty thoughts?" Miyano Shiho complained weakly, curling her legs:
"I just don't know why, my body feels so tired."
Hearing this, Linde said with a smile, "That's natural."
"You used so much magic just now, your magic power must have run out, right?"
"Since you know that, are you saying such things to tease me?"
"If you think so, I don't mind."
Miyano Shiho's expression was very helpless, only feeling that this master was full of mischief.
"Then, respected Master, do demons have a way to restore magic power?"
"It's very simple, I'll just replenish your magic."
Replenish magic?
How to replenish?
Miyano Shiho looked up, preparing to see what this was all about.
Then!
She saw Linde's handsome face getting closer and closer.
Wait a minute?
Does replenishing magic require being this close?
Is something not right?
Mmm—
She widened her eyes.
It became... very strange... but.
Her magic power was indeed recovering quickly... A moment later.
Linde released Miyano Shiho's shoulders.
Gulp.
Miyano Shiho's throat moved, and she felt a wonderfully strange sensation instantly sweep through her entire body.
"You... are you sure this is replenishing magic?"
Her body trembled slightly, and she slumped onto the sofa, her cheeks already flushed crimson.
"Of course, among demons, masters always restore their Retainer/Subordinate's magic power this way."
Linde was serious.
He was indeed replenishing magic.
However.
It did seem a bit off.
He looked at Miyano Shiho, who had become somewhat strange.
Sister Fia wasn't like this back then.
That's right, he had awakened his golden finger later and become a Progenitor Demon.
It seems.
He had underestimated his own power.
"Huh, my magic power seems to have increased a bit."
"But... something still feels wrong, Master, quickly think of a solution, did you get the steps for replenishing magic wrong?"
Hearing this, Linde was a bit embarrassed.
Could he say that there was no problem with the magic replenishment?
That her current situation was entirely due to his identity as a Progenitor Demon?
To be honest, he felt quite wronged.
He really didn't know about this side effect before.
Linde looked at Miyano Shiho, whose movements were getting bigger and bigger, constantly writhing, and felt a bit troubled.
Now there were two choices.
One was a beast.
The other was worse than a beast.
A moment later, Linde's gaze became firm.
Since everything was caused by him.
Then naturally, he should choose the former and take good responsibility.
"Don't worry, it can be solved immediately."
"Really?"
A look of surprise appeared on Miyano Shiho's face.
