Takahashi, Demons, and Satsuki

Dark Forest. About 1 kilometer north of Satsuki’s house. It seems that demons inhabit that forest, so very few people go there.

By the time I reached Dark Forest Central, it was already 8:01.

Dammit, am I too late?

I desperately ran towards the ancient tree at the center of the Dark Forest,.

Truthfully speaking, the moment Takahashi hung up the phone, I desperately ran straight out. Originally, Silent Water and Dusty wanted to follow me, but I refused. Sure enough, the aura I felt from Takahashi today was indeed a demon. Since it’s a demon, I couldn’t let them go. I didn’t want them to get hurt.

Arriving at the ancient tree, I discovered that Takahashi sat on top of a rock and Satsuki was tied to the ancient tree. Surrounding the ancient tree, was drawings of strange runes, as if it was a preparation for some ceremony.

“You really came!” Takahashi looked at his phone: “Just on time, exactly 8:00.” The time showed on Takahashi’s phone was probably slower.

“What… do you… think… you’re doing?” I asked while panting.

“Ah, obviously it’s to attain strong power.” Takahashi’s usual handsome face, now looked to be as ugly as a demon.

“Why… Satsuki?”

“That’s obviously because she’s very suitable to be my power source.”

“Lin Xiang, just leave quickly. Don’t worry about me.” Satsuki shouted from the top of the tree.

“What does that mean?” By now, my strength have basically recovered.

“Simply put, my slave. After finishing the ceremony, she’ll obey me. As for me, I’ll have her go and seduce some capable people, after which, I’ll have them killed, and obtain their power.”

Relying on killing to increase their power? This is practically the same as demons.

“Why are you tell me all these?” Satsuki will become your slave? Don’t joke with me. Dammit, why did Takahashi became like this.

“To someone who’s about to die, why would I need to keep it a secret. I’ll let you die knowing everything. Did you know, Lin Xiang, at the beginning, I had wanted to court her, but she was too timid, so there’s no way for me to have a proper conversation with her. So, I wanted to take my time, and bit by bit, open her heart. But during this few days, you became close to Satsuki, and disrupted my plans. During the mock battles lesson, I increased the level of the demons. But to my surprise, you managed to avoid its attacks. Now, she’s able to chat with me normally. I realised, Satsuki had fallen for you, dammit. So I had no other choice but to do it the hard way.

The one who Satsuki likes is you! You b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Dammit, Takahashi, all this time, the way you treated me kindly, were all a lie? Dammit.

“Lin Xiang, to be able to become the sacrifice for this ceremony, you should feel honored.” While speaking, he launched fire magic; a fireball at me.

I quickly dodged.

“I knew it. Lin Xiang, you’ve changed. Your speed has increased. However….” Just as Takahashi finished speaking, a burst of golden magic appeared behind me. No matter where I ran or what I did, I couldn’t shake it off. Awhile later, a bunch of silver swords came flying out of it.

s.h.i.t, so many swords. How am I supposed to dodge them all?

With a roll, I managed to dodge a wave of attack; then as he initiated the 2nd wave of attack, I took cover behind the tree.

*Ka-ca.* With a thud sound, the big tree fell to the ground.

That golden magic’s attack power was nothing to joke about.

“Lin Xiang.” Satsuki anxiously shouted from the side.

“Dammit.” Takahashi got a little angry since his attacks couldn’t land.

Soon after, a series of water, lightning, and fire magic came aiming for me but I still dodged all of it.

At this moment, Takahashi was running of patience as well: “Lin Xiang, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, I dare you to stop hiding.”

“Takahashi, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, I dare you to not use magic.” You idiot, when you’re using magic, how can I not hide. Do you think I’m stupid?

“Fine, Lin Xiang, I’ll take up your challenge.” Takahashi said as such, and stopped his magic attacks and ran towards me.

You b.a.s.t.a.r.d, I definitely won’t forgive you. I made a promise to nerdy Lin Xiang that I would protect Satsuki. Even if it’s you, as long as you hurt her, then I’ll defeat you with my own hands.

I came out of hiding, and ran at Takahashi.

Takahashi threw a straight punch at me. I blocked, and returned a punch back. His reaction speed was very fast as well; managed to dodge my punch, and followed it up with an elbow attack to my face.

As I dodge, I threw a punch to his stomach and it connected. He moved back two steps while clutching his stomach.

“Takahashi, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d.” I raised my hands, with the intention of beating him down. Suddenly, Satsuki cried out: “Watch out.”

*Siii~~* A black sword suddenly pierced my abdomen from behind.

“Ah~~~” As I collapsed to the ground, I saw Takahashi laugh sinisterly: “ Well~ hahaha. Lin Xiang, you’re really stupid, did you actually think that I’d fight you barehanded?

“Lin Xiang~~~” Satsuki desperately tried to break free from the rope but she was firmly tied.

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d… the one Satsuki liked was you…. at first I intended to allow Satsuki to go out with you, but, as the way you are now, you’re not worthy of Satsuki.” I shouted loudly.

d.a.m.n, it hurts. Was this the strength of a demon? Was this guy possessed by a demon?

“Like me?” Takahashi looked at me with doubtful eyes and then laughed afterwards: “Hahaha, you worthless person, are you begging for mercy? But, such a shame. Since you know everything, you need to die now. After I get that power, I shall become a new generation of king, and only I, will be able to save this world that’s filled with demons.”

“Right now you’re a demon.” Satsuki was crying: “Lin Xiang, Lin Xiang… please be safe. Takahashi n.o.buhiko, you a.s.shole.”.

“You s.l.u.t, take the chance while you still can to yell all you want. Afterwards, you’ll be submitting to me.”

“Lin Xiang… Lin Xiang… listen. Leave me alone and run now while you still can. Listen Lin Xiang, I like you. These past few days, I realised, the one I like is you. Do you know why I fell for Takahashi? That’s because every time you’re in trouble, he’ll always help you.” Since I was in a lot of pain, I couldn’t clearly hear what Satsuki was saying: “Lin Xiang, leave quickly, even if I really turn into his puppet and lose my conscious, please remember. I, Satsuki Risa, really like… Lin Xiang….”

Dammit Satsuki, what’re you trying to say? I can’t hear any of it. But can your expression not look so sad?

“Okay, Lin Xiang. Now, with you as the sacrifice, I’ll start the ceremony. In your final dying moments, you’ll be able to witness Satsuki become my puppet.” Takahashi turned around and a big black magic array appeared, immediately followed by Satsuki’s screams of suffering. Awhile later, the screams stopped. From the looks of it, she must have fainted.

Dammit, am I really going to just die like this? It’s only just a little stab.

I used all my strength to move my left hand to my wound. Looks like it’s a serious injury. Dammit.

“Woof~~~” Dusty’s voice rang in my ear.

Dusty?

“Master, master are you alright?” Silent Water hurriedly ran to me and used water magic to heal me.

“Spirits?” At this moment, Takahashi had noticed Silent Water and immediately afterwards, as if he had gotten mad: “Human form spirits? Is this real? This… this… isn’t she too beautiful?”

Silent Water fiercely glared at the person who did this to me. Afterwards, she applied a ma.s.s of water onto my abdomen and stood up.

Ah~~~ it’s blue.

Today, Silent Water’s dress was blue. Coincidentally, my head was right under her dress.

Seriously, what’s wrong with me? In this crucial moment, I still was in the mood to look at Silent Water’s underwear?

“The one who harmed master, must not be forgiven.” Silent Water’s voice was filled with anger.

This is my first time seeing the angry side of Silent Water.

“Oh? Oh? Oh? Angry? The human spirit is angry? Ha ha, this is fun. Hey babe, do you want to follow me? Together we can save this world?” Takahashi crazily said.

“I’ve nothing to say to the one who hurt my master.” As she said this, she released streams of high pressure water jets, each with speed of a firing laser gun.

Takahashi easily dodged them and watched as those water jet streams pierced through seven or eight big trees. Takahashi seemed pleased: “Oh~~~ really impressive. I want you more and more as my spirit now. What else are you capable of? Bring them out, enlighten me.”

After Silent Water missed the water jets, she immediately switched to a stronger magic: Watersprout.

“Little Silent. You can’t, the current you can’t use such a strong magic.”

This isn’t the demon world, Silent Water. You can’t use too much magic.

As if Silent Water hadn’t heard me, two huge tornados rapidly went to attack Takahashi.

Watersprout has quite an immense power. Moreover, when flanked from both sides,Takahashi wasn’t able to escape and was. .h.i.t straight on.

“Satsuki.” At this moment, I was very worried about Satsuki.

“Woof!” Dusty dragged Satsuki out.

“Satsuki.” Seeing that Satsuki was fine, I felt relieved.

“Satsuki, are you alright?” I shook the unconscious Satsuki but there was no response.

Even though it’s water magic, that strong attack still inevitably led to lots of dust.

“Not bad.” Suddenly, Takahashi’s voice came from within the dust: “I really like you.” Takahashi’s voice quieted down and the dust was blown away in a short time. In the middle of the dust, was a floating Takahashi who was surrounded by black smoke.

The b.a.s.t.a.r.d had already changed into a demon. Dammit.

When Silent Water, who used that excessive amount of magic, saw that Takahashi was completely fine, she was taken aback. Once again, she attacked using high pressured water jets. At this moment, Takahashi, who had his eyes shut, opened his eyes, and black lightning fired at Silent Water.

“Ah~~~~” Silent Water instantly fell to the ground. Her body still had some black electrostatic that went *zhi zhi*.

“Woof.” Dusty, who saw Silent Water collapse, was angry as well. It ran straight towards Takahashi but before it could even get close to him, it was. .h.i.t by a black lightning and flew more than 10 metres away.

“Little Silent! ? Dusty ! ?” As I saw Silent Water and Dusty collapse to the ground with many injuries, I got mad.

‘Brat, think carefully. This will burn your soul.’ Suddenly, Freed’s voice rang through my ears.

‘Uh, I know. So what if my soul is burned? As long as I can protect those I wish to protect, even if It leads to death, I wouldn’t mind it at all.’

‘Since this is the case, you can rest a.s.sured and do it. Since we’ve already died once, will there be anything that we dare to not do?’

‘Ah~~ that’s right.’ I stood up, and fearlessly laughed.

“What are you laughing about?” Takahashi asked.

“Hey~ Takahashi. In the past, whenever I encountered a difficult situation, why did you helped me?” I asked.

“Ha?”

“Takahashi, I’ve always thought of you as my best friend.”

“Don’t be stupid, stupid. That’s because you’re really weak and if I’m next you, I would look stronger, that’s all.” Takahashi indifferently answered. He seems certain of winning.

“No~~~ Takahashi, it’s because you’re possessed by a demon. The Takahashi I know, is someone who’s kind, handsome, and popular with the girls.” I laughed: “We’re friends. Those so-called friends, don’t they put their friend back onto the right path if they step onto the wrong one?

“You talk too much.” When he finished speaking, a big lightning bolt shot down from the sky.

“How’s this possible?” Takahashi was shocked when he saw me absorbed the lightning.

“Thanks for the hospitality, Takahashi, you’ve helped me once again.” What I meant by help, was of course referring to him giving me power, and reducing the burning of my soul.

White flames ignited from my hands.

“What? You know how to use magic? What’s that magic? What’s this oppressive feeling?” Takahashi instinctively felt fear, and stepped back a few steps.

“This time, it’s my turn to help you.” I said, then quickly ran towards the Takahashi who was planning to escape.

Then, with a straight punch, I hit Takahashi.

Takahashi caught hold of my fist, but since it was covered with sacred fire, it instantly ignited his entire body.

“WAAAAH!!!!!! WAAAH!!!!!!” Takahashi’s painful screams echoed throughout the deep forest.

Suddenly, I saw a black smoke drift out from Takahashi’s body. It wanted to leave Takahashi’s body, but once it came out, it was spread over by the sacred fire and disappeared in less then a second.

Following the disappearance of the demon, the sacred fire on Takahashi’s body extinguished as well.

Takahashi was panting heavily at first, then he comfortably laid down on the ground: “Xiang~ Thank you.”

“Everything’s fine now?”

“Yeah, It’s fine now.”

“How did you know I was possessed by a demon?”

“Just a feeling”

“Ah~~ is that so.” Takahashi handsomely smiled like he always do: “Being possessed by a demon, was really such a scary thing.”

“Since when did it happened?”

“Two months ago, when we just started high school.”

“Why?”

“Not sure, it probably because I wanted to become stronger.” Takahashi sighed: “My brother, at his 2nd day of starting high school, was killed by a demon.”

So that was what happened. No wonder nerdy Lin Xiang had a feeling that ever since school started, Takahashi had changed.

“I wanted to become strong, strong enough to kill demons, but in the end, I didn’t expect that I would actually be possessed by a demon instead. That’s so ironic.”

“Does your family know?”

“Of course they knew. But they couldn’t do anything, furthermore, since my clan is famous. Since this sort of thing happened, it would disgrace my clan, so they decided to kick me out of the clan.”

“Is that so? So this was the reason you had to work.” I understood everything: “In that case, what’s your plan now?”

“I want to become stronger. I want to kill those hateful demons. Now that the demon possessing my body had been purged by you, I’m going back home to visit my old man and do closed-door training.” As he said that, Takahashi stood up and looked at me with a serious face: “Xiang, thank you. Even though I don’t know what magic you used to purge the demon in my body, I still must thank you.”

“Humanoid spirit. Didn’t expect they actually exist.” Takahashi exclaimed as he looked Silent Water, who was still lying on the gra.s.s.

“Sorry, but I won’t let you touch a single hair on her body.”

“Of course I won’t. Xiang~~ I don’t have the qualifications. Furthermore, she has already found her master.”

“What do you mean?”

“Nothing, don’t worry. This matter regarding the humanoid spirit, I’ll keep it a secret for you. But I have a condition.”

“What condition?” Has the demon really been purged?

“My condition is very simple, that is: Lin Xiang. You must take good care of Satsuki.” Takahashi seriously said.

“Even if you didn’t tell me this, I still plan on doing so.”

“Is that so. After listening to your words, I feel a.s.sured now.”

“n.o.buhiko.” Now I finally felt that he was the real Takahashi n.o.buhiko: “Satsuki, that girl, really likes you.”

“Oh? Is that so?” Takahashi with a half-smile, looked at me: “Perhaps so. However, it seems that she likes an incredibly stupid guy more instead.”

“Who?”

“Don’t know.” Takahashi you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, why did you leave me hanging. Who’s that incredibly stupid guy?

Takahashi’s turned his back to face me and dragged his tired body forward a few steps. Before stopping he said: “Xiang~~~ being able to have a friend like you is really great. Remember, you need to live well, aim towards the t.i.tle of the strongest, and advance.”

“Same goes for you.” From the looks for it, it’s going to be difficult for me to see Takahashi in the future.

In the previous world, Takahashi was with me for four years. In this world, Takahashi was with nerdy Lin Xiang for four years as well. A total of eight years.

And now, I have to separate with a friend that I’ve been with for eight years. This feeling wasn’t exactly pleasant. However, even if he didn’t want to leave, he shouldn’t want to see Satsuki anymore? After all the things he did to her.

Satsuki? Speaking of Satsuki, I quickly ran to Satsuki’s side and shook her, only to see that there was no reaction. However, her body condition seemed to be normal, so she probably had only fainted.

I carried her on my back. With Silent Water and Dusty together beside me, we continued to walk until we arrived at Satsuki’s home.

After putting Satsuki down on her bed, I realised Silent Water’s face was very pale. Probably should be a severe loss of magic power.

Without saying anything, I pulled her into my arms.

“Master…..” Silent Water cried out, flabbergasted.

At this moment, I could feel the transferring of magic power. A total of 15 seconds had pa.s.sed.

Truly worthy of the t.i.tle of King cla.s.s spirits. The magic replenishment took so long, whereas Dusty only needed a second.

Embracing Silent Water in my arms for 15 seconds, didn’t feel that bad.

“Little Silent.” I looked at Silent Water’s blushing face and said with a serious tone: “Next time, you’re not allowed to be this reckless again, understand?”

“Mn.” Silent Water nodded her head.

——————————————

“In that case, you guys head back first.” To not let Satsuki discover a rare humanoid spirit, Silent Water, I’ve decided to let her head home first.

“Okay.”

“Remember to walk in places without any people. Be careful.” At first, I planned to bring them back home myself, but the thoughtful Silent Water refused. She wanted me to remain here and take care of Satsuki.

Since Dusty knew the way home, then I can rest a.s.sure that they’ll return home.

“Well then, master, goodbye.”

“Woof woof~~~”

After saying their goodbyes, they left for home.

I watched them until their shadow disappeared around the corner of the street.

Returning back to Satsuki’s room, Satsuki still had not woken up. At this moment, I walked pa.s.sed a mirror and noticed how embarra.s.sing I looked.

My face was cover with dust, and my chest was covered with bloodstains.

Bloodstains? Speaking of which, I remembered I was injured.

I quickly took off my shirt to look, and discovered what was supposed to be a hole in my abdomen, was completely fine. Not even a trace of injury.

“Wasn’t this too incredible?” I think it must have been Silent Water’s magic that saved me.

I went to Satsuki’s bathroom to wash my face, wiped away the dust on my body, and returned to sit beside Satsuki.

A wave of tiredness struck me, and without realizing it, I fell asleep.

……….

“Not bad, brat. To save your friend.” The white dragon Freed praised me.

“This was all possible because of you guys.”

“Of course, of course.” The black dragon Yalide confidently laughed.

“d.a.m.n you Yalide. Can’t you be like me and have some modesty?” White Dragon Freed scolded.

“Modesty? I think hypocritical fits you more.”

“What? You picking a fight?”

“Fight? Bring it on. Who’s afraid of who?” As they spoke, they started to fight again like last time.

I really didn’t get why these two like to fight so much.

………………

Hm? So warm, this feeling is?

Just as I opened my eyes, I discovered that I was laying down on Satsuki’s bed. My jacket was missing and Satsuki was hugging me like an octopus. I looked at the ticking clock that was hanging on the wall. It showed that it was 6:30 in the morning.

“Hey? You’re awake?”

Satsuki opened her hazy eyes. Once she caught sight of me, she appeared to be extremely happy; her beautiful face was just a few inches away from mine.

Seeing Satsuki at close range, I couldn’t help but say that she really was awfully beautiful; faced with such unblemished skin, curly eyelashes and big eyes that flickered with captivating radiance, my heartbeat couldn’t help but start to accelerate.

“Idiot, you’re too close.” I reminded her in this way.

At that moment, Satsuki realized that she really was too close. She immediately let go of me. Her face became red and then she sat down on the chair that I sat on yesterday.

“It’s good that you’re awake.”

“Mn.”

“What about Takahashi?” Satsuki asked.

“He’s already fine.”

“Oh.” Satsuki only replied with a single word and then looked at me with infatuation.

“You’re not curious about what happened?”

“It doesn’t matter, I don’t want to know. After all, it’s fine as long as some idiot is alright.” She looked at my intact belly.

“What’s that supposed to mean.”

“Nothing~~~” Satsuki wrinkled her nose adorably, and then said: “Come, let’s eat breakfast. We’ll go to school in a bit.”

“Oh.” I nodded my head.

 

Silent Water Short Story

“h.e.l.lo!” When I was staring blankly at the small stream, he ran in front of me and greeted me.

I won’t be able to forget this scene for a very long time. He was the one who eliminated the demon who killed my father and mother. He was the one who, at the time when my magic power was depleted, gave me his incomparably strong magic power. It was he, who gave me a home where I could settle down.

…..

My parents and I originally lived in the Demon World. Our family of three lived very happily. One Sunday (a week) ago, that diabolic demon —- spirit hunter Genuoduolasu, appeared before us.

My father, who was omnipotent in my eyes, was easily injured. Afterwards, in order to give my mother and I time to escape, he sacrificed himself.

At the time we arrived at the border of the Human World and Demon World, due to the excessive fatigue of opening a crack in s.p.a.ce, my mother was overtaken and murdered by it. All that remained was me, who was all alone. When I was staring blankly at the small stream, he ran in front of me and greeted me.

Just when I wanted to respond to him, it appeared. The fear it gave me was really too much; I felt my two legs tremble, as if I couldn’t walk anymore. He, without saying anything, dragged me and ran. Right when we ran to the place called a “factory”, he was. .h.i.t by its flame. I could only look on helplessly and watch his soul energy gradually become weaker as it was burned by the flames.

However, in less than 2 seconds, his soul energy returned. What was even more unimaginable was that later, he unexpectedly extinguished its flames. You know, the flames of fire attribute demons can’t stop burning, so how could it be extinguished by a human? This also wasn’t even the thing that amazed me the most. What amazed me the most was that he clearly had time to flee, but he nevertheless stayed in front of me and helped me ward off its flames. Furthermore, he ultimately also killed Genuoduolasu…

If it were before and my father asked me: is a regular human capable of defeating a superior demon? I would say no, but looking at him, with his weak spiritual energy, truly defeat the demon who killed my parents and moreover, only needing one move — a white flame; a move that gave me a sense of familiarity from the heart and also shock…

In the moment that he embraced me, his incomparably strong magic power poured into my body. I’ve never felt such powerful magic power before. It was completely inconsistent with the spiritual power that was emitted from his body; it was so strong and irresistible…

After arriving at his house, he cooked something called Plain Noodle Soup for me to eat. It was the first time I ate such incomparably delicious food. The soup tasted completely better than the “Almis Sweet Spring Water” that the water spirits in the Demon World regarded as a treasure…

Mother said to me before, that male humans are extremely fond of females who grow up beautifully; those male humans always wish to take advantage of females. If, in the future, I had to choose my own master, I must consider the opposite member’s manner of speech and conduct. He told me to bathe, I originally believed that he wished to bathe together with me and was somewhat uncomfortable. However, I had completely not expected that I was the one who one-sidedly misunderstood his intentions; he was an honest person…

When I finished bathing, he had came back with the clothes he bought for me. He switched on a box that was called a Television and watched it for awhile before heading to the second floor. Suddenly, I felt a powerful magic. From the floor above me, I started hearing lots of crashing noise. Awhile later, that magic vanished: I ran upstairs to check and found that his room was like the trees in “Ilila” jungle that randomly grew and intertwined with the other trees. A complete mess. I asked him what happened here, and he told me he was careless and tripped. Suddenly, I have a feeling of respect towards him. With just a fall, he was able to produce this much destructive power, it made me look at him suspiciously, having doubts about him being human….

Evening.

There was still one more thing that Mother said, and that was that all male humans like to “sleep” with females. “Sleeping”, this sort of thing, I knew about it. Mother had told me about it before, since human spirits are a very rare species, my generation needs to make contact with humans, and form contracts with them to ensure the continuation of the next generation….. So I wanted to confirm that he was an upright man. When it was time to sleep, he brought me to his room and I jumped onto his bed, hugged a very soft object (pillow), and closed my eyes to see if he’ll do anything. In the end, he did something. He poured a gla.s.s of water and placed it beside me. Afterwards, he gently covered me with a blanket and left and the room…..

First Day:

Not sure why but after waking up, I felt uncomfortable when I didn’t see him. However, there wasn’t any reason for me to run to his room and look for him, so I went downstairs and tried to imitate his cooking from yesterday…. After he woke up, he ate my cooking and felt very happy. He even praised me. I’m not sure why but this made me very happy.

He had left for school. In this empty house, I’m don’t know what to do so I helped him clean the house. His house was very dirty (This is a misunderstanding, in actual fact, Lin Xiang is someone who love to be neat and tidy. It’s just that he didn’t have the time to clean his house.) After spending a long time cleaning the house, I started doing the laundry. While holding his clothes, I became slightly dazed as I looked at it. Afterwards, I could not help but do some unbelievable things. I started sniffling his clothes…. After sniffling, I quickly put down his clothes. It’s not that his clothes were smelly, it was just that his smell was making my body hot. After I washed his clothes, I drew the water out from it, and just like this the clothes became dry…..

By the time I was done with this, it was already noon. I warmed the food he cooked for me and ate it. After eating, I switched on the box that’s called Television and looked at the pictures inside. But I still felt that time pa.s.sed by really slowly……

In the evening, he came back. After seeing me wear the clothes he bought for me yesterday, he blankly looked at me. It made me feel embarra.s.sed as my whole body started to feel warm. Afterwards, he said I was beautiful. This caused the water in my initial warm body feel like it’s evaporating. I only felt my head was getting dizzy so I quickly hid in the room beside me.

After some time, my breathing stabilized and that’s when I discovered that I actually hiding in the bathroom. This is somewhat embarra.s.sing. I sneakily came to the kitchen and the him that’s currently cooking saw me and gave me a smile that’s as warm as sunshine. He asked me to come into the kitchen, and taught me how to cook…..

After cooking, he asked about my situation today. I told him what I did today, but, the thing about his clothes… was obviously left out. I really can’t bring myself to speak about it. After hearing my narrative, it seems that he was able to understand my boredom today so he took out his magic hands and patted my head. Not sure why, but I really like it when he touches me. His touch makes me feel so warm, makes me forget about the pain of losing my parents….

After eating, I watched some television programs with him. Not sure whether it was because of the television programs or not, I kept feeling that the show was very enjoyable, and the time pa.s.sed really fast. In a short while, it was already time to sleep….

Second Day:

After waking up in the morning, I secretly went to his room to see him. At that time, he was sleeping so soundly.

After he ate the breakfast I made, it was time to separate from him again. Going to school and all, is it really that fun? Afterwards for the whole day, I watched the television show that’s related to school. There was an anime show on, where the main character was mostly in school. I gradually understood the usefulness of a school, and why students went to school…..

At night, he’s back. There’s an injury on his face and he told me was wrestling. As I was reducing his swelling with my water magic, I was praying too; hoping that no one was hurt when he fell. I really hope that he didn’t hurt anyone, since the television said if he hurt someone, he’ll be going to a place called prison. (In fact, there was 8 person who was injured due to Lin Xiang’s “Fall”.)

Day Three:

Today, it was already way past the time that he should be back. The sky was slowly getting dark as well. He’s still not back yet, so I worriedly stood in front of the door and waited for him, praying that nothing happened to him. I didn’t know how long I stood there but finally, I saw him at the mirror of the junction… Even though I didn’t know what happened to him, but as long as he’s fine, it’s more important than any other things.

Day Four:

Since I used some magic power when I was doing the housework, I used quite a lot of magic power, so I woke up later today. Also, my complexion wasn’t too good today and my hair was a mess. In order to let him eat breakfast earlier, I didn’t have time to take care of it. Coming to the kitchen, I saw that he was currently cooking something; I rubbed my eyes and realised that he really was here. Only until he greeted me, did I realised my hair was in a mess. I quickly ran towards the bathroom…..

I asked why was he up so early and he actually told me it was an apology for making me wait yesterday night. Actually, this wasn’t really needed? Just as I was lost in my thoughts, he suddenly embraced me and my mind went blank. Afterwards, I felt his strong magic power….

In the afternoon, he came back home while bringing an Earth Element dog spirit.

This is his house, and he even asked for my opinion. Asking whether he can keep that Earth spirit at home, is this his way of accepting me? Then when will he engrave the magic mark on me? (Simply put, it means forming a contract. A contract is made by kissing the contracted spirit. Afterwards, a certain spot on the spirit’s body will have an exclusive marking of its master.)

……

He answered a call and ran out, looking very anxious. From the anxious looks he had, something must have happened. Dusty and I wanted to follow him but he wouldn’t allow it. He had a very serious look. Usually, he would have an impatience look but I know his heart was filled with patience. However, I’ve never seen him have such a serious look. This made me realise that something must have happened.

I needed to abide to his order, so I can’t follow him, but I can’t let him get hurt, so I must follow him. While in a dilemma, I wasted about twenty something minutes before deciding with Dusty to look for him. Luckily, Dusty was a dog spirit, so it can sniff the air and know which direction he went in….

By the time we reached there, he was already injured. Looking at the him who had collapsed onto the ground, my heart felt it was fiercely pulled by something. Looking at the guy in front who had changed into a demon and listening to his possessive words, my mind didn’t seem to be able to think of anything. I am very angry….

By the time I recovered, that demon guy was already gone. I struggled as I dragged my body to the house of the girl on his back. After he put that girl down on her bed, without saying a word, he pulled me into his arms and that strong magic power flowed into me once again. It felt like only a moment had pa.s.sed, until he let go of me. At this moment, my magic power had fully recovered. Furthermore, I even felt that my ability had increased. If he gives me his magic power every time, my magic power will probably increase….

Today.

“Alright, Silent Water, I’m going to school.” He heartily lifted up his schoolbag and said that to me with a smile, breaking off my train of thought.

“Okay, please be careful on the road.” Eight days have already pa.s.sed by. Faced with the affable and approachable him, I honestly don’t know what I should say. I just felt that meeting him was truly wonderful.

He gave me so much, but I had nothing to give back, so I can only sweep the floor, prepare meals, wash the clothes and so on; repaying him by doing the things that I’m capable of accomplishing. Undoubtedly, the things I’m doing are so little and not equal to 0.0001% of what he has done for me; however, they are nevertheless capable of making him extremely happy.

He, is my master, and his name is Lin Xiang.
