"Thank you for bringing me back, Lynn!"
Yotsuya Residence.
Yotsuya Miko thanked Lynn at the door.
Lynn said, "It's fine, I was going to come over and set up a coordinate anyway."
"Um…"
Yotsuya Miko hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "Do you want to come in and sit for a bit?"
Lynn glanced at the slightly ajar door behind her and said, "I think it's best if you explain the current situation to your mother first."
"Ah, this…"
Yotsuya Miko stiffly turned her head and saw that her front door was slightly open.
Yotsuya Miko sighed, "Alright."
"Then, see you tomorrow."
Lynn waved his hand, found a place where no one could see him, and directly used 'Magic Cube Teleportation' to disappear.
"Mi—ko—"
Yotsuya Miko's neck sharply retracted.
Yotsuya Keiko stood behind her and said faintly, "So Miko came back so late because she was on a date with her boyfriend, huh?"
"Poor Mom, I waited for Miko until the food got cold, and I'm still hungry…"
"I'm so sorry, Mom!"
Yotsuya Miko apologized decisively.
"Good! Next time, bring your boyfriend over to visit, and I'll forgive you!"
"Eh????"
The next day.
Supernatural Investigation Department.
Yotsuya Miko arrived a little late.
Yesterday, she left Hua alone, and promised to treat Hua to daifuku today, so the two of them went shopping outside.
After parting ways with Hua, she rushed back from outside.
"It seems I need to learn Magic Cube Teleportation."
Yotsuya Miko thought of how Lynn used 'Magic Cube Teleportation' to travel yesterday and couldn't help but feel envious.
During class in the daytime, she secretly used her phone to ask about the usage of 'Magic Cube Teleportation' in the 'Lin Ens Familiars Harem Group'.
When Utaha sent a large amount of dense theoretical knowledge, Yotsuya Miko decisively gave up.
She was simply not cut out for studying!
Standing at the entrance of the Supernatural Investigation Department, Yotsuya Miko couldn't help but inwardly wail.
With a whoosh, Yotsuya Miko pushed open the door of the Supernatural Investigation Department.
What met her eyes was Lynn sitting with his back against the window.
His eyes were slightly closed, and he seemed to be deep in thought.
To his side, Utaha's slender fingers were frantically tapping on a tablet.
Of course, what attracted Yotsuya Miko the most was the Evil Spirit in the classroom, which seemed to be tied up but was so large it was almost breaking through the ceiling.
"Yiyaaaaaaa!!"
The bloated Evil Spirit let out a sharp, piercing shriek!
Yotsuya Miko quickly entered the classroom and slammed the door shut with a bang.
Her speed was so fast, as if she was afraid the Evil Spirit's roar would echo throughout Shuchiin Academy.
"Don't worry, ordinary people can't see or hear it."
Lynn opened his eyes.
Though Nayue-chan might file a noise complaint against him on Line.
Ah, unconsciously…
Yotsuya Miko also remembered the Evil Spirit's setting, awkwardly scratched her face, and then said, "This Evil Spirit…"
She was a little confused about the situation.
Why would the Supernatural Investigation Department… kidnap an Evil Spirit?
Her expression was a bit subtle.
If it were before yesterday, she would never have imagined this scene.
"This is a Tier 2 Curse Spirit."
Lynn explained, then said, "Use Swallowing Spirits on it, Miko."
"Ah… Yes!"
Yotsuya Miko reacted.
So, they were going to test how effective Swallowing Spirits could be.
She took a deep breath, then raised her hand, palm facing the bloated Evil Spirit, and softly shouted:
"Swallowing Spirits!"
Buzz—
Her magic power was fully released.
The Evil Spirit began to fluctuate.
"Aaaaa!!"
It seemed to sense a hint of danger, becoming agitated and frantically twisting its body, trying to break free from its restraints.
But…
It seemed that was all it could do.
Lynn looked at Miko, who was starting to pant, and made a judgment in his heart.
Tier 2 Curse Spirit.
Although it could still have some effect, for Miko's current strength, it was clearly too strenuous.
Moreover, the Tier 2 Curse Spirit showed no signs of turning into an experience pill.
"That's enough."
Lynn stopped Miko from continuing to release magic power, otherwise she would soon be like Shiwa before, depleted due to excessive magic power consumption.
Though he didn't mind removing such negative states for his Familiars through replenishment.
"Hoo—"
Yotsuya Miko stopped the output of magic power, looking at the unchanged Curse Spirit, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"I'm sorry, Lynn, my strength is too weak, I can't move it at all."
Lynn comforted her, "It's fine."
"Rather, this is normal."
If there were truly no restrictions, and Lynn brought a special-grade Curse Spirit for Yotsuya Miko to absorb, wouldn't her level soar like a rocket?
Lynn walked in front of the Evil Spirit and patted it.
"Alright, you're useless now."
As his words fell, the magic power ropes binding the Evil Spirit instantly tightened.
"Ugh ah ah ah!!"
The Evil Spirit only had time to let out a scream, and then with a bang, it exploded!
No one noticed that after the Evil Spirit exploded, tiny particles, like dust, gathered towards Lynn.
Swallowing Spirits!
However, unlike Yotsuya Miko, Lynn's method of Swallowing Spirits was not limited to compressing the Evil Spirit into purple beads for absorption.
Lynn carefully experienced it.
His strength had indeed increased.
But not as much as when Shiwa and Miko became Transmigration Demons.
And the growth of his Familiars would also constantly provide him with feedback.
To increase his strength, the most important thing was to recruit Familiars and help them level up as quickly as possible.
As for Swallowing Spirits…
If it were a Tier 1 Curse Spirit, or even a Special-grade Curse Spirit, it might rapidly boost his strength.
However…
"This level of Curse Spirit isn't that easy to come by…"
It depends on fate.
Hmm…
I'll mention it to Nayue-chan, and ask her to keep an eye out.
Although Nayue-chan's main focus isn't Curse Spirits, doesn't she have colleagues who specialize in them?
Of course, for a Special-grade Curse Spirit, Lynn wasn't very confident.
Although the 'Psychic Demon' has a special attack effect on spiritual entities, Lynn wasn't sure to what extent it could be effective.
It's better to be cautious.
"Is it over?"
Utaha asked, then put down her tablet and stretched her body.
That old woman, Machida Sonoko.
I just forgot to write for a few days and didn't submit my manuscript, yet she could say such harsh words.
She must be at the age of menopause, right?
Moreover, "Love Metronome" had dismal sales, there was no need to continue it at all.
If it were before, she might have been sad for a while.
But ever since she met Lynn, everything has completely changed.
Not just her life or becoming a demon, and so on.
Even in writing, she had found a new direction.
For the new book, why not call it...
"Miss Demon and Her Loyal Servant"?
Utaha stared at Lynn, her eyes shimmering.
If Lynn knew her thoughts, he would probably say it was an inversion of the natural order.
Thinking of this, Utaha couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Seeing Utaha like this, Lynn knew that this woman had fallen into one of her fantasies again.
Shaking his head, Lynn waved his phone and said, "I sent a file in the group. Remember to check it out when you have time."
File?
