The so-called mana replenishment is a way to supplement magic power through bodily fluid exchange.
Among the community of devils, mana replenishment is even a reward from a master to a subordinate.
“So, that’s the reason why you stuck out your tongue?”
Kasumigaoka Utaha’s eyelashes trembled lightly, her cheeks flushed, her lips pressed together, and her red eyes looked as if they were looking at Xin, yet also as if they were looking at the scenery behind Xin.
“It’s to maximize the mana replenishment effect, you see.”
Xin said righteously.
He was truly serious about replenishing mana.
It was just that Kasumigaoka Utaha had consumed too much, so the intensity of the mana replenishment was a bit large.
“Oh my, how unexpectedly pure.”
Himejima Akeno, who had witnessed the whole process, narrowed her eyes with an auntie smile.
Kasumigaoka Utaha’s body stiffened slightly.
Just now, her mind was entirely filled with Xin, completely forgetting the existence of anyone else.
It’s over!
She wouldn’t have been watched the whole time just now, right?
This is practically social death!!
Kasumigaoka Utaha was somewhat frantic on the inside, yet she forced herself to put on a composed expression on her face.
She took a deep breath and suppressed all kinds of emotions.
However, her heart was still beating so fast.
Swiftly glancing at Xin, she muttered, “My first kiss can be considered given away cheaply to him.”
“How is it?” Rias asked with concern, “How is Miss Kasumigaoka recovering?”
“It should be, alright?”
Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled awkwardly.
Rias looked back and forth for a moment before smiling, “It seems Mr.
Xin’s mana replenishment effect is quite good.”
Kasumigaoka Utaha’s expression stiffened.
Talk about bringing up the exact thing she didn’t want to hear.
Rias looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha with a face full of emotion.
“I didn’t expect Miss Kasumigaoka’s ability to be able to master even World-class Magic so quickly.
It’s truly an incredible ability.”
With just this single ability, Kasumigaoka Utaha’s potential was extremely high.
Once she grew up, her strength would definitely not be inferior to Akeno.
Such a subordinate made even her drool with envy.
Prompted by Rias like this, Kasumigaoka Utaha finally remembered what she had done earlier.
Only then did she turn around to look at the crater caused by the thunderbolt.
Kasumigaoka Utaha pondered, “Although the power is decent, I always feel it’s still lacking a lot.”
This was also the reason why she had staked all her magic power on a single throw just now.
“Of course.”
As a lightning-element expert, Himejima Akeno explained:
“If the full power of the Thunderbolt Magic is released, it can affect weather phenomena.
With Miss Kasumigaoka’s current magic power, it is still not enough to support the maximum output of the thunderbolt.”
“Is that so…”
Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded knowingly.
Indeed.
As a World-class Magic, although the completion rate was very high, Utaha had completely failed to unleash its full power. Enjoying the story? Read on at g.com.
However…
This was already enough.
Xin raised his index finger, and a black lightning snake danced at his fingertips.
The moment Kasumigaoka Utaha’s Demon Book recorded the Thunderbolt Magic, Xin also silently completed his mastery of the Thunderbolt Magic.
As a High-Class Devil, in his hands, the Thunderbolt Magic could achieve many operations.
For example, this soundless thunder.
There was no sound, and no magic power fluctuation.
Everything was tightly locked within this tiny black lightning bolt.
Only the moment it hit the enemy would everything be released.
Therefore, not a single person present could detect Xin’s actions.
Except for…
Himejima Akeno, who was exceptionally sensitive to lightning elements.
Himejima Akeno opened her eyes wide, staring intently at the black lightning on Xin’s index finger, shock flashing through her heart.
That black lightning bolt looked like Rias’s magic power.
Lightning containing an aura of destruction, huh…
Xin smiled faintly at her, gently clenched his palm, and dissipated that bolt of lightning.
Seeing this, Himejima Akeno also smiled and withdrew her gaze.
Yet her heart couldn’t calm down no matter what.
Although it was black lightning.
But there was no doubt it was the spell-form of thunderbolt.
Black wasn’t strange either.
Though she didn’t want to bring it up.
But that bloodline which disgusted her made her own lightning unusual as well.
What she found strange was that Xin seemed to have only glanced at the thunderbolt scroll twice, right?
Why did he look like his proficiency was extremely high?
The kind of control over thunderbolt just now was something even she couldn’t achieve.
Xin Valefor.
This only bloodline of the Valefor family didn’t seem simple at all.
On the other side.
Rias was still sighing, saying with a look of regret, “What a pity, even with World-class Magic, it failed to test the upper limit of Miss Kasumigaoka’s ability.”
Xin said with a smile, “It doesn’t matter.
If Miss Rias wants to test it, you can contact me anytime.”
Rias rolled her eyes at him and retorted unhappily, “Forget it.
A World-class Magic was already gambled away this time, who knows what would be gambled away next time.”
“Tsk, what a pity.”
Xin looked regretful.
Given the heritage of the Gremory family, Xin didn’t think a single World-class Magic was all they had.
Furthermore, Rias had a Demon King brother with the strength of a Transcendent; she could definitely drop a lot of gold coins.
Having squeezed Rias almost dry, Xin also prepared to leave.
Before leaving, Rias arranged for Toujou Koneko to show them around Kuoh Town.
“So, why is it an arcade?”
Kasumigaoka Utaha looked speechlessly at Xin and Toujou Koneko. New chapters come out on novelping.com first.
“K.O.!”
“Defeated again.”
Toujou Koneko looked at the character she controlled collapse to the ground, her expression slightly dazed.
“Senior is so strong.”
Although Toujou Koneko’s tone had no fluctuation, Xin could hear her earnestness.
“I say, we’ve played about enough, right?
If we don’t hurry, we won’t catch the bus back.”
Kasumigaoka Utaha glanced at the time, her right leg shaking incessantly.
For some reason, seeing Xin and Toujou Koneko having so much fun made her somewhat irritated.
“That’s true.”
Hearing Kasumigaoka Utaha’s urging, Xin gave up the idea of starting another round with Toujou Koneko.
Although he had learned Magic Cube Teleportation, he hadn’t placed coordinates at home yet, so he could only continue taking the bus back.
“See you next time when you’re free, Koneko.”
“Senior.”
Toujou Koneko tugged at Xin’s clothes, then pulled out a flyer, “Please accept this.”
Xin took it and glanced at it.
Devil Summoning Contract.
Toujou Koneko’s exclusive.
“Senior, I want to learn combat!”
Toujou Koneko tilted her head back, her eyes filled with seriousness.
Xin glanced at the Street Fighter nearby.
Understood!
So it’s *that* kind of combat!
“No problem, if you have time, I’ll invite you over to my house as a guest.”
After leaving Toujou Koneko’s line of sight, Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms and followed behind Xin.
“Calling her Koneko, huh.”
Xin gave her a strange look.
“Why do I feel like you’re a bit jealous?”
“Ha?
How could I—”
Kasumigaoka Utaha was about to retort, but her brain suddenly crashed for a moment, and she froze in place.
That’s right, she was indeed jealous.
Kasumigaoka Utaha gave Xin a complicated look, her gaze involuntarily locking onto Xin’s thin lips.
Crap, she felt like she was falling in love!
But haven’t they only known each other for two days?
Images of what they experienced over the past two days flashed wildly in her mind, finally stopping at that so-called magic replenishment scene from earlier, causing her heartbeat to inevitably speed up.
“Why aren’t you walking anymore?”
Xin stopped in his tracks, waiting for Kasumigaoka Utaha to catch up.
Kasumigaoka Utaha snapped back to her senses, stroked her long hair messed up by the wind, then took a few quick steps, grabbed Xin’s arm, tilted her head up slightly, and said, “I admit, I am a bit jealous.”
Xin was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, “Then you should rein it in.
I’m a Devil who’s going to build a harem, you know.”
“…You really are a Succubus.”
