[Otherworldly Girl Helper Manual has collected Spider Mother's Light of Love]
[You gained Charm +5]
[Spider Mother simultaneously gained Charm +5]
"It actually added Charm?"
Kisaragi Rin looked at his Charm, which had directly reached 13 points, and he didn't know if such a large attribute increase was because Spider Mother's talent was too outstanding, or if his Charm attribute was originally low.
Kisaragi Rin closed the player panel. At this time, the curtains were almost unable to block the sunlight, and Spider Mother was curled up in a tiny ball, sleeping in the quilt.
Kisaragi Rin reached into the quilt and took out a ball of light from Spider Mother's heart.
Spider Mother kept her body tightly curled, vaguely unwilling to wake up like a cat.
Although demons basically don't have something like stamina as long as they have energy, their spirit can be depleted.
The ball of light taken from Spider Mother's body was naturally the effect of the Otherworldly Girl Helper Manual, which was the Special gift obtained when affection reached maximum value.
The ball of light transformed into a spider web, and the paradise bracelet displayed the effect of this gift.
[You obtained a Special gift - Spider Mother's Love Spider Web]
Item - Spider Mother's Love Spider Web
Description: A spider web woven for you by Spider Mother.
Effect: Targets captured by the spider web will develop feelings of love for you...
Bonus: None
Usage Condition: For some beings, their way of expressing love might be a bit different...
"Not bad."
Kisaragi Rin read it over and put it away. He just didn't know what degree this so-called love was—was it a budding romance, or unwavering devotion?
But no matter which it was, it was a fairly powerful item.
An enemy who wanted to kill him suddenly falling in love with him—just thinking about it was a good source of amusement.
Leaving Spider Mother to continue resting, Kisaragi Rin put on his bathrobe and prepared to take a shower.
Walking past a few strange stories, with his Charm suddenly increasing so much, Mary's eyes went wide.
Charm represents affinity, dominance, summoning, etc. It doesn't mean that reaching a certain level will turn one into an unparalleled handsome man or beautiful woman, but rather that subtle changes occur, making one appear more charming and approachable.
A low level of affinity will give strangers a higher base level of goodwill, preventing situations where they find you displeasing.
Of course, if you encounter an ordinary office worker who likes beautiful small hands, this Charm might also bring some misfortune.
And when Charm reaches an extremely high level, it's probably what's written in fantasy novels as "favored by heaven and earth, and in horror stories, it's Tomie Kawakami, who can drive every man mad...
Rejecting Sadako's idea of scrubbing his back, Kisaragi entered the bathtub, but there was already a figure inside.
Sitting in a corner of the bathtub, only a head remained outside because she was too short.
Of course, it wasn't Haibara Ai, but the original landlady, now Ms. Asoumi, Miyuri Asou.
Miyuri Asou, 27 years old.
"Why are you here?"
Kisaragi Rin asked strangely, giving up on taking off his bathrobe and just soaking in it like that.
"Because the bathtub at home is very small, and on weekends, you have to find a bigger place to relax."
Miyuri Asou stared at Kisaragi Rin's body without blinking, speaking indistinctly in the bathtub.
She wore a semi-transparent bathrobe, which became almost completely transparent after being soaked, but it wasn't a big deal, as Miyuri Asou's figure didn't have much curvature, and she would have to pay double for a back rub.
Kisaragi Rin retracted his gaze and said, "The problem is, this is my home."
"As a landlord, isn't it right to meet the needs of tenants?"
Miyuri Asou said as if it were a matter of course.
It sounded completely unreasonable, but Miyuri Asou indeed did this when she was the landlady.
When Kisaragi Rin handed Miyuri Asou the money he borrowed from Kato Megumi and local delinquents, she, dressed in a nurse's uniform, immediately wanted to demonstrate the landlord's obligations to Kisaragi Rin.
Before this happened, Kisaragi Rin had thought she was some landlord's daughter or something.
Miyuri Asou extended her feet into the deep water area for her, walked to Kisaragi Rin's side, and sat down, "And I will pay compensation."
Pushing away Miyuri Asou's restless hand, Kisaragi said speechlessly, "Judging by your performance, is this you paying me, or me paying you?"
"Of course I'm paying you! No matter how you look at it, it's like this!"
Miyuri Asou said terrifying words while her body prepared to move in on Kisaragi Rin.
"Ms. Asou, your clothes have been packed up."
A voice from outside suddenly interrupted everything. Miyuri Asou slumped into the bathtub and responded to Busujima Saeko outside, "Got it, I'll be out soon."
Her purpose in coming here was to collect her personal belongings... those Special uniforms.
"Mr. Kisaragi, I'm leaving, ugh..."
Miyuri Asou reluctantly bid farewell to Kisaragi Rin, moving very slowly to leave the bathtub, hoping Kisaragi Rin would say something like, "Isn't there still a little time?"
Clearly, this was just Miyuri Asou's fantasy. Kisaragi was bathing in the tub, and if anything, Miyuri Asou's departure made him feel more relaxed.
Miyuri Asou pouted, took off her bathrobe in the nearby changing room, and changed into the OL uniform she had arrived in.
"We only found these from the bedroom, changing room, and similar places, Ms. Asou. Please check if anything is missing," Busujima Saeko said to Miyuri Asou, pointing to the cardboard box on the table.
"Thank you, Saeko."
Miyuri Asou clasped her hands together and thanked her, casually flipping through the cardboard box, then let out a soft "Eh?"
With doubts, she searched carefully again. Miyuri Asou raised her head awkwardly, "There really is one item not in there. That item... is very important to me."
Busujima Saeko asked strangely, "What is it?"
Asking Miyuri Asou to check was just for politeness. The items in the cardboard box were all found by the three strange stories from various places in the room, so there shouldn't be any errors.
Thinking of that item, Miyuri Asou blushed and put her hands behind her back.
"It's a bunny girl uniform, but it's a little Special..."
As Miyuri Asou paused frequently, thinking how to express it, Shizuka Marikawa also put down the two-person game she was playing with Kanroji Mitsuri.
Busujima Saeko glanced at the wandering eyes of Shizuka Marikawa and already knew where that bunny girl uniform had gone.
Or rather, the whereabouts of that tail.
After all, one might not trust Shizuka Marikawa's brain, but one could completely trust Shizuka Marikawa's body.
An elf queen who is 176 cm tall cannot wear the clothes of a 134 cm elf princess.
"Ms. Asou, regarding the bunny girl uniform, I will have someone buy a new one to apologize to you."
"Eh?"
Miyuri Asou had a question mark appear above her head, only belatedly realizing something.
