Chapter 71
“Rufus is currently losing his human form and reverting to a demon.”
“Losing his human form? Why……?”
“From the beginning, his human form was unstable because he couldn’t receive complete affection from you, Heesu-nim. It’s only natural that it would eventually be undone.”
“What is this ‘complete affection’? Don’t tell me, f*****g?”
“……Yes.”
Heesu asked with an expression of disbelief, but Izzen hesitated and then nodded. At that answer, Heesu’s face contorted.
“You’ve got to be kidding me……. If he reverts to a demon, isn’t he going to attack me again like before?”
“He…… will.”
“You said you wouldn’t let that happen!”
“Yes. If that happens, I’ll stop it by beating him unconscious again like last time…….”
“……Wait.”
Heesu, who was about to say something, soon gritted her teeth and hit her own throat. She had almost burst out with, What right do you have to hit our boy?
At the time, Heesu hadn’t thought much of Izzen’s promise. No, she had even thought it was appropriate. Back then, Rufus was a terrifying creature who had been a werewolf, attacking her and shoving his p***s at her. She wanted to chase him away, not keep him close, so she wouldn’t have cared at all if Izzen had beaten him unconscious.
But now was different. Heesu now knew how blindly Rufus followed her. She knew that he was harmless despite his large size, and that he was as foolishly kind and innocent as could be. Rufus was now her one and only precious wolf in the world. Like the fox in The Little Prince, he had somehow become that kind of being.
The thought of Izzen beating that kind of being unconscious was just unpleasant. Naturally, being hit hurts. Being hit hard enough to be knocked unconscious hurts even more. It certainly couldn’t be good for his body. His life might even be in danger. If possible, Heesu wanted to avoid that.
“Then what if I give him that complete affection? Will he stay human instead of turning back into a werewolf?”
When Heesu asked that accusingly, Izzen hesitated, avoided her gaze, and said,
“Yes. He will. For a while…….”
“For a while? Why for a while?”
“Because the affection he receives doesn’t last forever. While maintaining his human form, the affection is gradually consumed and disappears, and at some point, his human form will be undone again. However, the stronger the affection he absorbs, the longer it will last and the more stable it will be…”
Heesu, who had been listening to Izzen’s words with a somewhat cold, stiff expression, cut him off.
“But eventually, that human form will still be undone.”
“That is…… true…….”
“So I have to give him this ‘complete affection’ frequently.”
“If you do…… it would be good…….”
When Izzen answered evasively, Heesu’s lips curled up.
“But that’s not limited to just Rufus, is it? The same was true for Violen. I just didn’t know because I was constantly doing that ‘complete affection’ thing with him. And not just the demons I’ve met so far, but all the demons I’ll meet in the future will be the same. Right?”
“…….”
Izzen couldn’t bring himself to answer yes, and he anxiously watched Heesu’s reaction. He had expected her to grab him by the collar if he confessed the truth, but her seeming ease in understanding and accepting it made him even more nervous.
He had a feeling that if he were to bow his head now, some executioner would rush in from somewhere, swing his sword, and chop off his head. But there was no escape.
“That…… is true…….”
In the end, Izzen nodded, his anxiety at its peak.
“Ha……!”
At that answer, Heesu let out a hollow laugh.
Actually, it wasn’t that surprising to Heesu. In fact, it even made some sense. A system where she had to constantly f**k the demons who followed her as their master to prevent them from reverting to their original forms. She’d thought the magical girl violation stories was a bit loose, but a hidden setup like this was behind it.
It was fine. She could accept it. But,
“F**k!!”
That didn’t mean she wasn’t angry.
Heesu suddenly turned into an executioner, rushing at Izzen and grabbing him by the collar.
“What the f**k do you take people for?! What ‘complete affection,’ this means I have to constantly bang all the demons, doesn’t it! Am I some kind of f*****g machine? Is that what you call a magical girl’s human rights?! Huh?”
“Th-that…… I couldn’t…… cough…….”
“Don’t give me that b******t! Why didn’t you tell me such an important fact from the beginning! You were planning to hide it until the time came, weren’t you?! You intended to deceive me from the start?!”
“N-no…… cough…….”
“Lies! What else haven’t you told me! Spill it all right now, you cheating bastard!!”
“Cough…… cough…….”
Izzen choked and gurgled as he was violently shaken by Heesu’s grip.
His throat was being choked and his breath was cut off, making his vision turn yellow. How well had she been exercising him, his stamina was well-developed, and even in his original form, his strength was considerable now. If he had ever anticipated that this stamina would one day be used to grab him by the collar and shake him, Izzen would not have trained her so hard.
In his hazy mind, Izzen regretted those times. No, he regretted his entire life. The days he had lived flashed before his eyes like a revolving lantern…
“Just…… kill me…….”
Izzen gasped and said with difficulty.
“What, you asshole?”
