Help! My Overprotective S-Rank Master Who Loves Me Too Much Won't Let Me Go on Quests! - Chapter 28: Adin is Happy!

Chapter 28: Adin is Happy!

“If I give you my magic, Etenela-san, there won’t be any reason for you to attack the town anymore. And if that happens, my wish for you not to attack the town will naturally come true. It’s a win-win situation, I feel.”

“That’s true, but… Are you sure? Giving magic to a demon, a succubus, and a high-ranking officer of the Demon King’s Army like me…”

“I’ve realized that Etenela-san is a kind person, after understanding that, everything else seems trivial in comparison.”

“…Trivial…?”

After a moment of silence, Etenela-san placed a hand on her chest and smiled.

“Thank you, I feel saved… Just as expected from the apprentice of Aria Feruste, you’re quite special too.”

“Really?”

“Yeah, succubi like us are born with bodies that make men attractive to us, because we can’t survive without interacting with men. It should be especially noticeable in my case, but you didn’t seem captivated by my body… except the first time you saw me.”

“At first, I… I’m sorry. I was just hoping to gather any useful information to help, but I found myself getting lost in thought unintentionally.”

“Don’t apologize. The fact that it stopped at just that time is truly remarkable… Besides, if your eyes were captivated by me, that’s not so bad either.”

Etenela-san said with a seductive smile.

There were many things I wanted to actually ask her, but for now, I feel like discussing what we should do next seemed like a priority. So, I decided to talk about our future.

“Etenela-san, regarding the matter of me giving you magic from now on, how often do you need it?”

“If I said I need it all day, every day, would you stay by my side every day?”

“Huh…!?”

If that were the case, would she accompany me even during training?

But if I were to go on quests, I couldn’t bring along Etenela-san, who wasn’t even an adventurer.

“That’s a bit difficult… But if that were really the case, I’ll think of some countermeasures.”

“You’ll think of something… But rest assured, if I get the right amount, I can actually hold on for quite a while. If I need it, I’ll come straight to you.”

“You will? I’m grateful.”

“…But, the sensation of losing magic all at once is tough, so I don’t want you to experience that.”

“Losing magic all at once…”

While I understand the feeling of using magic during magical training, I’ve never experienced the sensation of losing it completely, so I don’t know how that feels.

As I tried to imagine that feeling, Etenela-san spoke while moving her wings slightly.

“If you’re okay with it, there’s actually a way for you to feel not tired but rather pleasant after giving me magic, and it lasts much longer than giving me your magic itself.”

Such a method existed… What method, though?

“Speaking of which, you mentioned something about human sources, right? You said you couldn’t bring yourself to take it from uninterested human men because of the method…”

“…Yeah, that.”

“Does that mean… you’ve taken an interest in me?”

“Now? Among humans… No, among all living beings, you’re the one I’m most interested in… Hey, can I call you Adin?”

Being called by my name… it seemed like she really was interested in me.

“Yes, that’s fine… I’m happy, after all.”

“Happy…?”

“It makes me happy that someone as strong and kind as Etenela-san is interested in me… I also want to become stronger.”

“If it’s dark magic, it’s our specialty as succubi, so I’m pretty good at it, but other than that, you’re…”

Just as Etenela-san was about to say something, a bolt of lightning magic passed over our heads, and a loud voice came from above us.

“Adin-kun! Get away from her!!”

There was Aria-san, aiming her magic at us—or more accurately, towards Etenela-san.
