At the Shrine!
Ayato looked at Haruno, didn't speak, just pulled his arms out of Seiko and Momo's embrace and stood up.
Whoosh!
The next instant!
A pair of black wings unfurled.
An eerie aura spread.
"Hiss!"
Haruno immediately gasped, frozen in place.
Her eyes widened as she stared fixedly at Ayato.
"A... a real Devil?"
Haruno's voice trembled.
Even having experienced countless storms, facing this supernatural creature, she couldn't help but tremble.
Most importantly.
Yukino was in his hands.
Instinctively, she looked at Shizuka.
And then saw the Devil Wings unfurled behind Shizuka.
"..."
Haruno almost fainted.
Shizuka was also a Devil?
This was far too incredible.
And thinking about it carefully...
Servants and the like...
Her sister wasn't also a Devil, was she?
Shizuka said with some concern, "Haruno, are you okay?"
She got no response.
Shizuka wasn't surprised.
She fully understood how the other felt right now.
After all.
She had been the same way.
It had taken her a long time to come to terms with it.
Whoosh!
At this moment, Haruno took a deep breath and smiled. "Shizuka, you've been hiding this from me for so long."
Shizuka: "..."
Good grief!
As expected of you.
You came to terms with it so quickly?
"Mr. Devil, I was very rude just now, not knowing your true identity."
The next moment, Haruno knelt on both knees, performing a perfect dogeza.
When in Rome...
If the other party was human...
Even if they were incredibly powerful, there might be room for negotiation.
But now.
Trying to negotiate with a Devil... was simply a joke.
Beyond that!
She thought of even more.
Since Devils existed...
Those legendary supernatural powers must also exist.
Unconsciously.
Her heartbeat began to quicken.
"Since you know you were rude, shouldn't you pay a price?"
Haruno's body trembled, then she said with a smile, "Haruno is willing to accept any punishment."
"It's not that serious."
Ayato smiled. "Just promise me one thing."
Haruno said nervously, "What thing?"
"How about becoming my servant, just like Yukino?"
Haruno was stunned for a moment, then a look of wild joy appeared on her face. "I am willing, Mr. Devil."
"???" xN.
Everyone's gazes became somewhat complicated.
This was the first time.
Someone had agreed so readily.
"Interesting."
Ayato stroked his chin and explained, "Becoming a servant means being reincarnated as a Devil and serving me for life."
"I understand perfectly."
"Just becoming Mr. Devil's wing, right?"
Haruno asked, "Besides that, I should also awaken supernatural powers, right?"
"Of course. If you work hard, moving mountains and filling seas is not beyond reach."
"Then, becoming your servant is my honor."
A look of satisfaction appeared on Haruno's face.
Flying, immortality, eternal youth, all kinds of incredible powers.
For an ordinary person, this was an immense temptation.
And most importantly.
Sooner or later, for the sake of her family's development, she might have to make sacrifices.
But rather than being with those disgusting people...
It was better to follow this Mr. Devil.
At least he was handsome.
And he could give her incredible powers.
And she could be with Yukino forever.
That being the case.
This punishment felt like a pie falling from the sky.
Seeing this, Seiko and Mikumo were stunned.
This woman.
Was really something.
She had accepted it so easily.
"Good, then let's perform the Reincarnation Ritual."
Ayato took out an Evil Piece and said, "First, take off your outer clothes."
Haruno: "???"
She blinked.
A look of surprise on her face.
To become a Devil, did she need to take off her clothes?
Could it be that the Reincarnation Ritual...
After hesitating for a moment, Haruno began to move.
Even more thoroughly.
In an instant, she was completely bare.
Sooner or later, it would happen.
It didn't matter if she guessed wrong.
Seeing this, Miko and the others were dumbfounded.
Their faces instantly turned red.
Yukino's sister... was actually like this.
Shizuka also twitched her mouth.
As expected.
This friend of hers was as unscrupulous as ever.
