Regarding Kama/Mara.
In a typical Kama Spirit Origin, the ratio between the two is 6:4.
When the ratio reverses, Beast will Awaken.
During this year, Sakura was influenced by another Beast, Beast VI, and the Kama Spirit Origin within her gradually shifted towards Mara.
The Young Miss born in the Tohsaka mansion’s basement is now a being similar to Rhode, an infant Beast.
With Mara and Kama each making up 50% of her Spirit Origin, simply put, she is—
Kama, who believes herself to be Mara.
…
As Rhode’s body sank into the sofa, Kama’s petite figure skillfully pressed against him.
“The annoying bugs have been eliminated, Satan Senior~ Let’s do something fun. Let me reward you?”
Sitting on his lap, her hands clasped around his shoulders, the Young Miss Devil King looked into his eyes and said faintly.
“Don’t worry, just give your body and heart completely to me. I will satisfy you.”
Her creamy skin, through the light purple gauze, transmitted a wonderful sensation and warmth to Rhode.
Her bewitching red eyes seemed capable of draining all the vitality from his eyes.
Rhode shook his head and sighed, “Mara… I’m talking to you.”
The Devil King, who presides over temptation, leaned close to his ear, blowing warm breaths while murmuring sweetly.
“Hmm, that’s right. For Senior, this Physique should be more satisfying, right?”
Rhode felt the weight on his chest, abdomen, and legs rapidly increase.
The purple gauze tightened around her skin, and Kama, who had been a Young Miss just a moment ago, began to swell.
Her pure and lovely youthful beauty transformed into a seductive and enchanting demonic beauty, and her full, rounded thighs sat on the boy’s slender legs.
Kama leaned forward, completely squeezing out the last bit of air between them.
The XL-sized Devil King and the S-sized Devil King were, literally, “intimately close.”
“Let’s be happy together…? Whether it’s murder, lies, or indulgence. I will love everything about Senior; I will accept all of Senior. Hmm, I will take Senior’s precious—”
Rhode, whose face was pressed and breathing with difficulty, smacked his lips and calmly raised his hand to rudely push Kama’s face away.
“Do you think I’m stupid? If I did that with you, I’d definitely become your bait. Mara, your love is too heavy; I can’t bear it.”
Fortunately, he had embraced Elsa three times this morning; otherwise, he truly wouldn’t have been confident in his self-control.
“Oh~~~ You turned me into this, you summoned me from the Sixth Heaven to the present world. And now you say you don’t want to accept my love. Senior is truly a scumbag, a big scumbag! The shame of the Devil King realm!”
Kama puffed out her cheeks, staring up at the boy beneath her with resentful eyes.
“Anyway, your goal is to consume my [Divine Core of the Devil King] to gain your full power, right?”
Rhode tightly gripped Kama’s restless hand as he spoke.
“Sorry, I also have reasons not to disappear.”
“I just want to repay Senior’s kindness for Awakening me~ I won’t eat you.”
“That’s what I say when I take a girl to a love hotel.”
“That’s two different things.”
Kama, a little deflated, climbed off Rhode’s lap and sat on the sofa beside him.
Legs crossed, arms folded across her chest, the Young Miss Devil King huffed in a sulk.
Kama’s desire to tempt Rhode into corruption was certainly not out of gratitude.
If there had to be a specific reason, it was that she wanted to prove she was a more excellent tempter than Rhode.
According to legend, Satan once transformed into a snake to tempt the first humans to eat from the Tree of Knowledge, stripping them of their divinity and bestowing upon them the ability to procreate and the concept of death.
Not only that, he also transformed into a Devil multiple times to test the Messiah during his asceticism, such as persuading the hungry Jesus to turn stones into food, and so on.
Therefore, Satan is regarded by the Holy Church and believers as a tempter and a liar.
On the other hand, Mara is a Beast that presides over the Dao of [Fall], dedicated to making all humanity fall into her love and desires.
In her view, Rhode and she had a clear conflict of interest.
How can one sweep the world if one cannot even sweep one’s own house?
Before making all humanity ascend to heaven, she had to find a way to make this boy fall for her!
“Mara, what are your plans next? Staying in East Asia for too long might get you noticed by Shiva. And Japan is considered half a Buddhist stronghold. With your current Spirit Origin, you might be physically ‘purified’ by a passing militant monk on the street one day.”
Rhode asked nonchalantly, flipping through last week’s Yu Yu Hakusho.
Due to Sakura’s extremely special Physique, and his distrust of Mara, Rhode had no intention of letting her get involved in the Fourth Holy Grail War; he just wanted to send this plague god away as soon as possible.
“You don’t need to tell me; I’m leaving anyway. Hmph, if I wasn’t thinking about making Senior fall, I wouldn’t stay in this place for a second. As for the destination… Hmm, let me think. Alright~ Let’s set it as Western Europe, where Senior wouldn’t dare to go.”
“The guy who pushed Senior into the black mud three years ago…? Hmm, what good would knowing that do?”
“…”
Rhode remained silent, and Kama, feeling a bit bored, changed the subject.
“Western Europe, huh? Alright, Western Europe it is… Hmm. If I’m there, I can also avoid Shiva’s ears and continue to accumulate my power.”
Accumulate power means…
Rhode rolled his eyes: “I say, don’t do strange things with this body.”
“Eh?”
Kama blinked in surprise: “You’re actually so gentle with her. C-could it be that I’ve always misunderstood Senior, that you might be a…?”
“Mara.”
Rhode placed his hand on her thigh, his fingers sinking deep into the plump flesh, while he revealed a ‘kind’ smile.
“If you say anything strange again, I’ll make you end up like the bugs in the bug warehouse.”
“…Ugh!”
Kama’s body trembled, and she quickly shook her head: “Even if I wanted to do something with her body, I couldn’t. This child’s spirit is surprisingly strong, an incredible resilience. If I really angered her, she might seize superficial control, and please spare me from that; it’s a vessel I only just obtained.”
Rhode: “…As long as you know.”
“Wuwuwuwu… Hmm?”
Making a charming sound, Kama stretched and slightly reduced her XL-sized body to an energy-saving L-size.
She rose from the sofa: “Alright, alright, I should get going. I won’t disturb your Heroic Spirit Summoning. Senior, your Divine Core is my important backup vessel, so don’t die, okay?”
“The same to you. Don’t let the Holy Church guys eliminate you, my backup ingredient. Speaking of which, since you can’t do ‘that’ with Sakura’s body, why were you tempting me just now?”
“…Is that something a girl should say aloud?”
Kama, who had been about to leave, suddenly returned to Rhode’s front.
She leaned down, her large, abundant ‘headlights’ shaking violently.
A seductive curve played on her crimson lips, and Kama hooked Rhode’s chin with her index finger.
“That’s because this child [Sakura] allowed it.”
