Chapter 75 75 – Qualification As A Man

The restaurant was quiet. The only sound that echoed inside the restaurant was the sound created by Kai's finger hitting the table repeatedly and the ticking of the clock on the wall, which showed 5 PM.

He looked around the restaurant anxiously. The curtains were pulled down, and the door was closed. No one outside would be able to see what was happening inside.

His grandfather was unusually late. Marcus usually arrived at this time to cook dinner with the fish he had caught. All of this was normal, however.

So then, what made him anxious? It was because he heard what Amber said inside the shower room.

'That girl! This is bad. Bad bad bad.'

The sharper senses he had after contracting with Ibaraki allowed him to pick up sound from far away. If he concentrated, he could even hear a drop of water from 100 meters away.

His restaurant was nice, but it was not installed soundproof. Especially the inside. There was no need to install it in the first place. Who knew it would backfire on him like this?

'I don't plan to eavesdrop, but I was really curious about what they did in the bath that took them so long. Who knows that Amber would plan something like that?'

Right now, he had no time to even think about a plan for solving the problem that happened in New York City. No, he would leave it to Griffin. There was something more urgent for him.

'Damn it. What should I do? I am totally sober and am not influenced by any alcohol at all. When it was with Amber, I had some drinks with Robert. The same thing happened with Shuten Douji. She gave me a strange alcohol that made me aroused.'

The situation was similar to the previous two, just without any alcohol. He heard Amber whisper to Ibaraki to increase his bond by making out with him.

He understood where Amber came from, but it was still too sudden. Looking from a different angle, he was also a man, and Ibaraki was a beautiful woman, so he couldn't deny that he was a bit excited.

Even thinking about Ibaraki being naked together with Amber in the bath when he accidentally heard their conversation had excited him slightly.

Searching for defense, Kai stopped tapping his finger against the table. Then with a serious look, he muttered, "There is nothing wrong at all. I am just showing affection to Ibaraki."

The mood had turned strange, but he didn't hate it at all. With his strange innate ability to read someone's mood, he could guess that Ibaraki would follow Amber's suggestion. The Oni girl was just that innocent.

With how shy she was, Kai wouldn't be surprised if Ibaraki was still a virgin. Maybe he had more experience with something like that compared to the Mythical Oni.

As he was thinking about all kinds of things, he heard footsteps coming from behind, through the hallway that connected the front and the back of the restaurant. Only a door separated what might be his blessing in the day.

'Alright. Give me your best shot, Ibaraki Douji!'

He turned around, preparing himself so he wouldn't get surprised. That was when he suddenly heard a voice inside his head.

[Fufufu, Kai. Ibaraki is coming for you~]

Amber said playfully, and he knew he had nowhere to run, not that he planned to.

'It must be your fault, Amber. What did you feed into her ear?' Kai asked the Phoenix girl through telepathy, trying his best to appear calm and oblivious.

But it didn't work.

[Don't pretend like you didn't hear it, Kai. I know that your senses are sharper than that.]

'Tsk!'

[Just accept her. That girl is a bit insecure about your feelings toward her as she was the one who asked to serve you then.]

'I know. I don't plan to run away. By the way, where are you now? I can't feel you inside the restaurant.'

[Me? I am hanging out in the stall with your grandfather and his friends. Don't worry. I will keep them here~]

'You planned everything, huh?'

[Fufufu, enjoy your time. Put up a soundproof barrier to prevent noise from leaking out. You've learned how to do it in the last few days, right?]

'I know.'

The footsteps got closer and louder. Then the door creaked open, revealing Ibaraki Douji with a red face wearing her revealing leotard bodysuit only. It was half-transparent, allowing Kai to see past it.

He was frozen, and Ibaraki approached him while shaking her hips as she walked.

"M-Master… M-May I request something?"

She stopped in front of him and hid her chest with her arms. Her body trembled slightly, but Kai felt her mood turn into something pink, something he had only seen twice when he did it with Amber and Shuten Douji. It was a mixture of excitement and arousal.

"W-What is it, Ibaraki? And why did you dress like that?"

"I-If I may, I want to advance our bond, Master. I-Is that okay with you?"

While he knew about Amber's plan, Ibaraki also seemed to forget that he had sharp senses and blushed.

He found himself in an awkward position. His previous two sexual interactions began with the girls inviting him, not the other way around. They were fierce and willing to take the lead.

This time, Ibaraki was someone shy. There was no way for her to take the lead, so the job fell to him. She already showed her will to do it with him. And Kai would have failed as a man if he had been unable to show a manly side and taken the lead this time.

Gulping the saliva that built up inside his mouth to ease his nervousness, he stood up slowly and put his hands on Ibaraki's shoulders as he smiled sweetly.

"Of course." He nodded firmly. "Let's do it in my bedroom, okay? It's not appropriate to do it in this place."

Hearing him accept her advance, Ibaraki beamed with a wide smile. Her eyes glistened as she nodded firmly. "Y-Yes!"

Both of them smiled at each other and held their respective hands as they went to the second floor, to Kai's bedroom.

He locked the door, put the soundproof barrier just as Amber suggested, and turned to the bed where Ibaraki was sitting.

When he observed her closely, her body was still a bit wet from the earlier bath. Her fair skin glistened, giving her a sexier look.

Approaching her, Kai took off his shirt, showing off his well-toned body. Ibaraki blushed even redder and gasped when she saw him, but she didn't avert her eyes. Instead, she muttered.

"You look amazing, Master."

Oni was a fighter race. They all loved strong bodies. As the Mythical Oni from ancient times, Ibaraki was no different from them.

"Thank you, Ibaraki." Kai replied to her honest compliment as she stopped in front of her, gently pushing her to the bed. "I will be gentle, okay?"

The Oni girl smiled. She put her arms around Kai's neck and nodded, "Un."
