About an hour later…
Haruno Yukinoshita glanced at Andrew, who still looked full of energy, and quickly shook her head.
"No more!"
"I'm done, I'm done, Andrew... I give up! I surrender... sob sob..."
Andrew grinned and pulled her into his arms, finally letting her go.
Haruno rested against his chest, her snow-white arms naturally wrapping around his neck.
Her beautiful face was flushed with a seductive shade of red.
Her hair was wet with sweat, clinging to her forehead and cheeks — but oddly enough, it just made her look even more stunning.
Yukino Yukinoshita already had a face that was criminally cute, but as her older sister, Haruno was just as gorgeous — maybe even more so.
And when it came to figure... Well, back then, Yukino was still nicknamed "Flat-no."
So obviously, Haruno had her beat in that department too.
After taking a short break, Haruno poked Andrew's chest with her finger.
"Why are you so damn good at this?"
"Ahem! Well... you know how it is... it's just a guy thing. Totally natural instinct."
"Oh yeah? You sure it's not 'cause you already have a girlfriend?"
Haruno said this with a lazy little smirk — and was seriously tempted to bite him.
She wanted to leave a bite mark on him, then stir things up between him and his girlfriend. Ideally, she'd get so pissed she'd dump him.
Then he'd be all hers.
Since she'd already made a contract with him, given herself to him, and could now vaguely feel some sort of magical connection between them… she wasn't gonna stress about it anymore.
She'd just accept it.
And honestly, being tied to a mysterious guy like him wasn't exactly a bad deal.
Still, just because she'd accepted her fate didn't mean she was okay with her man being a flirt.
In fact, a tiny little ambition had started to grow in her heart—
She wanted to completely win this man over, make him fall so hard that he'd love only her, and only her.
Andrew didn't reply to her pointed question — just smiled with that fiery look in his eyes.
At the same time, his hand was sliding down her smooth, slender leg.
Haruno's ambition and schemes disappeared in an instant. She stared at him, pitifully, her eyes starting to tear up.
"You're gonna bully me again?"
"Hmph. Only because you look like you need a little disciplining."
"Ughhh... how could you say that? I'm already yours… what else can I do?"
She pouted, resting her head on his chest and started crying.
Whether the tears were real or just part of the act was anyone's guess.
Compared to Yukino, Haruno was a straight-up drama queen.
Still, Andrew softened.
No matter how clever and calculating Haruno might be, she'd still been completely devoured by him, hadn't she?
"Alright, alright, don't cry. I'll stop, okay? You need to rest."
He raised his hand and gently stroked her hair, calming her down.
Haruno finally started to relax, a small, smug smile forming at the corners of her lips.
Another useful piece of intel, secured.
This guy totally fell for the cutesy act — and had zero defense against a girl's tears.
That said… she was genuinely a little upset.
After all, she'd just given him her body. And she hadn't even dated anyone before.
It all happened so fast.
After resting for a bit, Haruno seemed to have pulled herself together. She gave him a little push with her small hand.
"I'm good now. Shouldn't we get back to business?"
Andrew obviously understood what she meant — "business" as in helping Yukino.
"No rush. Let's get you cleaned up first. You don't want Yukino seeing you all sweaty, right?"
"...Yeah, true."
Haruno didn't argue. She let him scoop her up and carry her into the bathroom.
This house had originally been bought to celebrate Yukino getting into high school — her way of rebelling against their mother and becoming more independent.
Who would've thought she'd lose her virginity here?
Wait, hold up!
This guy calls her little sister by name so casually — isn't that too familiar?
Could it be that he's actually interested in little Yukino too!?
Haruno stared at Andrew's handsome face, her emotions getting more and more tangled.
After a quick shower and a change of clothes, Haruno called the driver. She and Andrew got into the car and headed to the hospital.
Meanwhile, Andrew pulled up his Demon Development Panel.
The stats had changed.
[Demon Development Panel]
Player: Andrew
Familiar 1: Mahiru Shiina (Grants Super Regeneration) Familiar 2: Haruno Yukino shita (Grants Damage Absorption)
Abilities:
Super Regeneration
Damage Absorption
Mage (Hellfire, Flame of Judgement, Mana Infusion)
Demon's Wish
The interface was simple, but it also meant thatAndrew had grown even stronger.
He took a closer look at the specific ability Haruno had given him.
[Damage Absorption]
The player can absorb any type of damage from a target's body — including diseases — and store it. This stored damage can either be healed using Super Regeneration or transferred to another target.
Andrew's eyes lit up.
A familiar's ability was tied to their deepest desire.
Haruno desperately wanted her little sister to recover — so much so that she even wished she could take Yukino's place and suffer for her.
And just like that, Andrew gained this "damage absorption and transfer" ability.
Not bad. It was perfect for a cautious, strategic demon like him.
Now, if he ever got attacked, he could just pass the damage onto someone else. Let them feel the pain.
And since he also had Super Regeneration, even if he did get hurt, he could recover quickly.
Plus — this ability was perfect for healing Yukino.
Her body was basically paralyzed — she was like a vegetable.
He could absorb that damage, store it, and later transfer it to someone he didn't like.
