"Sigh~"
A refreshing evening breeze blew in from the distance, slipped through the window, and caressed the two demons.
Feeling much cooler, Kawashima Miki took the opportunity to catch her breath, raising a sleeve to wipe the sweat from her forehead. In the dim light of the floor lamp, the dust stirred by the wind danced around her like fine powder.
After resting for a few seconds, she bent down again, her icy fingers gliding over Fujiwara Reya’s scorching skin.
With every knead of her fingers, his muscles twisted and stretched to the limit, then quietly absorbed the nourishing oil.
This method greatly benefited his body; originally, she shouldn’t have used it on him.
But Kawashima Miki could no longer care about such matters, she only wanted Fujiwara Reya to suffer. As long as she saw him trembling in pain, she felt comforted, paying no mind to the possibility that she might be indirectly increasing the enemy’s strength.
Fujiwara Reya gritted his teeth, barely making a sound.
*The current feeling was pleasure mingled with pain.*
*On one side was a burning flame of agony, while on the other, the lady’s fingers brought cool delicacy. These two sensations combined to leave an impression he would never forget.*
Massaging his entire back took about thirty minutes.
Kawashima Miki was so exhausted, her forehead dripping with sweat, that she had to pause to drink some water and catch her breath.
Fujiwara Reya silently shrugged his shoulders.
*A peculiar sensation,* he thought, *even though only his back had been massaged, his entire body felt refreshed, as if all his internal parts had been replaced, improving mobility significantly.*
He got up from the massage chair and performed some stretching exercises, feeling the strength swelling within his body as he remarked, "This lifestyle really is deteriorating. I wish the lady would deteriorate me like this every day, so much that her massages would render me useless."
"Behave properly," Kawashima Miki glared at him with displeasure, poured a glass of water, and walked slowly to the window to drink.
"This massage feels somewhat odd," Fujiwara Reya said as he stood beside her, looking out at the nightscape, "the technique doesn’t resemble the bubble bath massages I’ve seen in movies; rather, it seems more like a form of therapy, or perhaps training."
Kawashima Miki drank her water silently.
Fujiwara Reya had no choice but to keep quiet and enjoy the night view.
Outside the window was bustling Tokyo Taito District, with countless lights vying for attention against the dark backdrop of the night. The Skytree’s colorful lights, the lamps along the expressway, car headlights, airline warning lights atop skyscrapers, vibrant advertisement lights, and fluorescent lights from apartment windows all blended together, forming the unique colors of this metropolis, thoroughly banishing the night from the sky.
"Hey," Kawashima Miki suddenly spoke, "can I ask you a question?"
Fujiwara Reya replied with gentlemanly grace, "I can answer any question for the lady."
"About your Shikigami..."
At that point, Kawashima Miki realized she had no idea where to start asking.
Fujiwara Reya turned his head to look at her
Amid the fluttering lights outside, she crossed her left arm over her chest, supported her right elbow on her left hand’s back, and pressed her right palm against her chin, her cheeks patterned with illuminating shadows.
"My Shikigami," Fujiwara Reya began proactively, "she is Luo Xinfu, the Empress of the Spider Demon clan."
Kawashima Miki’s eye twitched.
Bullshit!
Yours is a fake!
There can only be one Luo Xinfu, and that is me, Kawashima Miki!
"Is the lady interested in my Shikigami?" Fujiwara Reya asked with feigned surprise.
"Uh, hmm," Kawashima Miki pondered for a moment before asking, "I want to know, how did you find this Shikigami?"
"Of course, I can tell the lady the truth, but the condition is..." Fujiwara Reya paused, patting his chest, "the back is done, what about the front?"
"..."
Kawashima Miki’s expression was one of utter shock, or perhaps ’astonishment’ might be more accurate.
Helping to massage the back was already pushing her limits. After all, massaging from the back meant she couldn’t see his face or... the important part; but if she were to massage the front... that thought alone made Kawashima Miki wish to jump out the window.
"I will most certainly tell the truth!" Fujiwara Reya raised one hand high, declaring solemnly, "With Amaterasu as my witness, heed my oath."
Kawashima Miki frowned beautifully, cautiously scrutinizing Fujiwara Reya’s face.
His face showed only calm and sincerity, as calm as the surface of a pond after the ripples had spread. This forced her to believe he wasn’t lying.
After all, he was a Shinto priest.
Amaterasu, the Supreme God in Shinto, if one broke an oath taken in her presence, they would be punished.
"Can the lady trust me yet?"
As he spoke, Fujiwara Reya’s lips curled into a faint, elegant, and charming smile.
Kawashima Miki didn’t know how to respond. Her face felt hot, and her heart was pounding so fast that it sounded like the thunderous clatter of galloping horses crossing a wooden bridge.
She even thought that any woman seeing such a smile would surely blush.
"Lady, is that okay?"
Fujiwara Reya slightly lowered his head, aligning his gaze with hers, like pausing in the Nezu Museum to admire his favorite painting.
"No..."
Kawashima Miki shook her head with immense difficulty.
"You’ve already done half; why not complete the other half?" Fujiwara Reya extended his hand, naturally holding her small hand, whispering in her ear, "Besides, the lady must know how irresistible she is. Leaving me halfway might feel a bit cruel, don’t you think?"
