Chapter 9: A Baiting Devil
[You go to extreme lengths for your loved one, even killing for their sake. Your moral code may have cracks created by your passion, and your fires of love may be destruction but twisted as it may be, it is your choice. May your bond stay Eternal. You have gained a Special Skill: Ignis Ad Intimacy.]
Erix and Rin were surprised and quickly checked the new skill.
[Ignis Ad intimacy: Whenever you do any intimate action with Rin, you can activate this skill to increase your magic power and all physical attributes by 30% for an hour. Cooldown: 5 hours.]
[Ignis Ad Intimacy: Whenever you do any intimate action with Erix, you can activate this skill to increase your magic power and all physical attributes by 30% for an hour. Cooldown: 5 hours.]
"Let's check how it works. I'll activate mine," Rin said with a chuckle before kissing Erix while wrapping her hand around his neck.
As they kissed, both of them could feel the skill's trigger. Erix didn't activate the skill as Rin said since she was going to do it, and she did it after a second.
Both of them instantly felt power well up in them!
"Nice! Let's quickly kill that bastard and then continue our adventure. We have to finish those three tasks, and they don't seem easy to accomplish," Rin said.
Erix pulled Rin closer as her well-developed plump but tender breasts pressed against his chest. He kissed her again while his hands grabbed her butt cheeks and pinched them. "If it weren't for the current situation, I would've wanted to eat you right now," Erix chuckled and lightly slapped her butt.
"Now, you are arousing me," Rin said with puffy red cheeks and rested her head on his chest. "But, the race is still ongoing. To get stronger and survive, we must work hard and find a solid stronghold. On the way to here with others, we saw a giant portal in the sky from which many monsters came out, and something big was materializing in Phoenix City's direction.
"That's why all of them were scared. I am sure we are no match for those monsters with our current power," Rin sighed.
"It seems that the world is more fucked up than I thought," Erix said with a wry smile. Unlike others, he was sleeping while everything occurred, and after that zombie bite, he fell into a short slumber again. So, he didn't know about those portals.
"Alright then, let's move out after killing that trash. We shouldn't waste this one hour of power boost," Erix said.
...
As Erix and Rin entered inside after blasting the door, Felix woke up.
Still feeling pain, he asked, "Who?!"
However, he soon saw Erix and Rin standing before him and became wide-eyed. "Y-You two..."
Erix saw Felix wrapped in bandages, but feeling no pity, he kicked him.
*Crash!*
Felix was thrown off the bed before crashing against a wall.
"Arrrghhh! H-Help!"
Rin approached him and pointed her katana at him. "Do you have anything to say to me?"
Felix was scared to death and quickly said, "S-Sorry, teacher Rin. Please forgive me. I-I was not in the right mind."
"Good. Now you can die," Rin said before stabbing her katana into Felix's stomach.
"Aaaarrrghhhh! Its hurts, it hurts! Don't!"
*Chrii!*
After leaving the twisted katana stabbed into his stomach, Rin turned around to face Erix, "Let him die slowly."
"Wait," Erix said as he approached Felix before breaking off his arms and legs with four kicks.
"Arghhhhhhhh!!"
"It hurts! Arhhghh!"
*Crack... crack...*
Felix cried in immense pain and wiggled around. "D-Don't, please! It h-hurts! Arrghhh!"
"Now he will definitely die," Erix said before he turned around and left the infirmary with Rin.
"F-Fuck... Arghhh!" Felix stopped moving to lessen the pain, but despair had already filled his eyes. He knew he would die soon.
After a minute, just when he was about to die, a dark swirl appeared beside him before he transformed into a handsome man with two black demonic horns. The man wore red round specs, a tuxedo suit, and a hat. He held a dark red wooden cane with dark gold patterns in his hand and walked towards Felix.
"Ottoo! Phew, guess I made it here in time," the devil spoke as he put his cane on Felix's chest. "Hey, brat. Do you want to live and take revenge?"
Felix suddenly felt some vigor passing into his body through the cane on his chest and opened his eyes. "Devil..." Felix wearily uttered as he looked at the man.
"Yes, I am a devil. You call me Anovin. And I have a simple offer for you," Anovin said with a wide grin showing his perfect white teeth.
"Kill... Kill those two," Felix murmured weakly with intense hate in his eyes.
"Nope. That's not how It works," Anovin shook his head. "The offer is like this. I can save you from dying, and in turn, your soul will belong to me after you die. If you agree, then sign this contract. Just put your thumb on it," Anovin said before he grabbed Felix's thumb and put it near where the katana was stabbed to paint it red with blood.
"Arghh..."
"Sorry, hahaha. But now, yan put your thumb on his contract," Anovin said after putting Felix's thumb down and taking out a piece of paper with eccentric language and symbols.
"H-Help," Felix spoke weakly and tried to lift his hand but couldn't.
"Tsk, I can't help in that. It's really troublesome for us devils when it comes to that, sigh. You have to move your thumb yourself," Anovin said as he bent down and brought to contract near Felix's thumb. "Here, just move it and print it on the paper anywhere."
*Groan..*
Felix groaned in pain as he tried his best and put his thumb on the paper.
The moment it touched the paper, the contract paper brightly glowed before it turned into shiny black motes and disappeared.
Right after that, all wounds of Felix started healing. His broken bones were fixed, and the katana was removed from his stomach automatically as it flew out and fell beside him.
All of his other injuries, including his crotch, were healed completely!
Felix stood up as he felt vigor like before. Several seconds ago, it was as if he was at death's door, and a second later, he was in perfect condition! n-.Ovelb1n
"I don't get any powers?" Felix asked with doubt as he looked at Anovin.
"Hahaha," Anovin laughed and lightly slapped Felix's cheeks twice, "You are not worthy of such a contract. Now, go and die so I can take your soul and dine on it later. Oh yeah, don't die during the next ten days. If you die before ten days, I won't get your soul, and you will also suffer the worst of the tortures by me."
After saying that, Anovin became a black swirl of mist and disappeared while thinking. 'I guess 30 contracts are enough for today. My soul is also feeling more burdened with these many. Hehe, but I can't wait for these fruits to become ripe. If even half of them survived for ten days before dying, I'd be able to have a delicious feast.'
Felix was silent for a few seconds before he took a deep breath. He picked up the katana from the floor and slowly walked towards the exit door before peeking outside. 'Those two should've left, right?'
