The dim cave was left in silence.
In front of the cross, there was a circle of firewood, and between the cross and the wood, two people lay on the ground.
They were the Demon King and the Magical Girl.
A Recording Crystal hovered mid-air, aimed at the two’s feet, with the angle tilting up, emitting a faint glow.
Shami’s back had slammed into the ground, but due to his robust physique, he felt only a brief pain before it subsided.
His attention turned to the soft Magical Girl lying on top of him.
Perhaps because the Magical Girl had a rather slender figure and the two were standing not far apart just now, her small head now nestled above his chest, their bodies closely pressed together.
Shami lifted his head to look, finding the Magical Girl’s face buried in his chest flushed red, starting from her thin lips, upwards along her delicate nose, her eyes, even her smooth forehead was as red as could be.
The expression on that small face seemed as if the sky had fallen.
Thump. Thump thump. Thump thump thump.
The Magical Girl clearly heard her own heartbeat, entirely erratic, as if it might stop at any moment.
Her hands tightly clutching Shami’s clothing trembled, as the tension in her body gradually loosened, the long-held urge to pick flowers faded away, her little face growing darker.
Upon sensing the large area of wetness on her legs and Mage’s Skirt.
The Magical Girl knew she probably had to admit defeat completely.
Shami asked with concern.
Having completed the contract and recorded footage, ensuring the Magical Girl was now under his wing, he had no need to keep up a stern facade.
Being a suave and affable Demon King, it was only proper to treat the newcomer Demon Envoy gently, without scaring them.
Shami felt slightly puzzled, wondering if it was just his imagination, his abdomen and thighs were feeling much warmer.
He was wearing regular clothes today, rather thin, so it was highly likely the Magical Girl’s body heat had transferred over a large area upon contact.
If that’s the case, isn’t the Magical Girl’s temperature way too high!
[Demon King’s Detection] activated.
[Status: Half Demon Envoy (hidden identity, only known by the contract-bound Demon King)]
[Condition: Extremely flustered]
[Attribute: Genius Magical Girl]
Shami was slightly surprised.
The level was quite high.
And there was even a system-certified genius Magical Girl honor. She surely had the makings to become the Saintess of Fata, but now was the Demon King’s Magical Girl.
Saili didn’t respond, her thin lips trembling.
How, how could it be okay... she wasn’t hurt from the fall... but now thinking about it... she’d rather have died from that fall than face the current situation.
The Magical Girl’s eyes filled with shame gazed at Shami beneath her.
This Magical Girl, who had roamed Fata for twenty years, who had read more than half of the banned books in the library, who could even decipher Divination Art, was brainstorming frantically, yet her mind was blank, not knowing what to do.
Being the first Magical Girl to be on top of the Demon King, saying it out loud could qualify her as a new species...
"Um, um, let me tell you something..."
The Magical Girl slightly opened her mouth, her small hands released Shami’s clothing, slowly moving upwards, eventually propping against his chest, raising her face and upper body.
Her black hair fell slightly disorderly on both sides of her face, unable to cover the blush on her cheeks.
But actually, no matter what it was, could she move off him already.
If the flat-haired golden and white-haired people came in suddenly and saw this, thinking he was being suppressed by the Magical Girl, the Demon King’s honor would be gone!
They’d definitely consider the Demon King unable to win a physical fight against a Mage to be trash!
"As a Magical Girl, I generally keep some backup water in my Storage Bracelet, just in case, since a Magical Girl isn’t made of steel and definitely needs to replenish water. Sometimes, I might forget to tighten the cap and put half-drunk water back in the bracelet. And coincidentally, the bracelet hasn’t been repaired in a long time, has some minor issues, occasionally popping things out uncontrollably."
The Magical Girl’s gaze drifted, her eyes never meeting Shami’s, her slender neck turning red as she swallowed, slowly straightening her waist, finally sitting on Shami’s lap.
Shami noticed that the Magical Girl’s lower half and Magic Skirt were wet, as were his pants and clothes’ hem.
The warm feeling, that explains it.
"So-so-so during that fall, the Storage Bracelet malfunctioned, spilling the water inside and soaking us both."
Shami silently watched the Magical Girl.
The Magical Girl held her hands up in front of herself, blinking her lashes, her pale ears turning red under her black hair.
"You picked flowers on me, Magical Girl."
"No. The bracelet broke, and the drinking water leaked out."
The Magical Girl calmly replied.
"A Storage Bracelet with that kind of flaw can’t be worn anymore, right?"
"It’s just a minor flaw. After all, the Fata’s Magical Girl is essentially a student, not a professor, with no salary, and the family has to pay for her to study there. Where’s the pocket money to replace it with a new Storage Bracelet? It’s not something cheap; Storage Bracelets are expensive magic equipment."
