[169] He Bid Too High!
[169] He Bid Too High!
Because he had just experienced her first time yesterday, and considering he had been a bit excessive, August didn't do anything to Hilda.
He merely enjoyed the decadent life, with a beautiful woman in his arms, relishing the luxuries he hadn't dared to imagine not long ago.
At this moment, August noticed a flyer on the table.
"Summon devils, fulfill any wish?"
Isn't this a devil flyer? How come there's one at his home?
"Hilda, where did this come from?"
"I received it from a familiar when I went out to buy groceries today."
"Familiar?"
"Yes, it should be sent by the devils in this area to help distribute flyers."
Recalling the plot, it seemed to be true. Except for the unlucky Iseei, everyone else seemed to use familiars to distribute flyers.
Looking at the magic circle depicted on it, August suddenly smiled. Summoning devils seemed quite interesting.
"Um, My Lord, you don't actually plan to summon, do you?"
"Yes, I'm curious to know who will be summoned."
"In that case, let me help you draw the magic circle."
Hilda continued from August's embrace, immediately entering work mode when something happened.
Soon, a magic circle for summoning devils was drawn on the living room floor.
Looking at this suddenly, August felt a bit familiar but couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
"My Lord, it's all set. Just inject some magic power, or use the summoning method written here to activate the magic circle."
"Forget about that summoning method. It's easier to just inject a bit of magic power."
The method of summoning devils was written on the flyer, but August found it troublesome. Injecting a bit of magic power would do, saving time. Besides, the written method was for humans without magic power.
After injecting a bit of magic power, the entire magic circle was activated.
The magic circle on the floor suddenly emitted a deep blue light, then expanded into a pattern.
"This is the Sitri family's crest, Sona's flyer, not Rias's."
Preconceived, August thought it was Rias's flyer but unexpectedly, it turned out to be Sona's.
The family's inherited magic circle was a symbol of identity and also a symbol of power. The generational crest was equivalent to the family's secret technique, only usable by the family members.
Buzz~
Then the magic circle began to operate. A burst of light flashed, and a figure emerged from it.
Seeing the person, August suddenly felt happy.
"Devil Shinra Tsubaki, responding to your summon. What do you—"
Mid-sentence, the voice abruptly stopped upon seeing August.
After the teleportation through the magic circle was complete, Shinra Tsubaki appeared in the living room of August's house. However, she stood still, locking eyes with August.
"Well, good afternoon, Shinra."
"August, why is it you? And just call me Tsubaki."
"I originally thought this was Rias's flyer and wanted to meet the Crimson Princess in a special way. I didn't expect it to be Sona's flyer."
"Uh~"
Tsubaki Shinra was also speechless for a moment. The leader of the demon clan actually had such peculiar interests.
"But since you're already here, might as well help fulfill my wish."
As August infused magic power and Tsubaki Shinra responded to the summon, the devils's contract was already sealed.
In the devil race, contracts were incredibly important. Every devil valued their contracts, and even in modern times, though devils had evolved, they still adhered to ancient contracts when making deals with humans.
"So, August, what is your wish?"
While saying this, Tsubaki Shinra glanced at Hilda beside August, already recognizing her identity.
The maid that even her presindet admired, she finally met her.
"Um~, wishes, I..."
Suddenly, at this moment, August rushed into the room, rummaging through things, and then came out with a bag.
"This is my wish. Put on this outfit, and let me take some pictures to record it. That's all I need for my wish to come true."
"Huh? Change clothes? Take pictures?"
In an instant, thoughts of bikinis, bunny girl outfits, and tempting uniforms kept flashing.
"What is this inside?"
Pointing at the bag, Tsubaki Shinra's tone was a bit hesitant.
"Nothing special, just a regular maid outfit. I'm curious about how you would look in a maid outfit, Tsubaki."
Saying that, he opened the bag and took out the maid outfit, quite normal, with no strange designs.
However, just as she breathed a sigh of relief, Tsubaki Shinra suddenly remembered something. Where did he get her measurements from, someone he just met today?
"My Lord, isn't this my maid outfit?"
"Borrowing it for a bit. I'll get you a better one later."
"Yes."
With August saying that, there was nothing more Hilda could say. She could only keep her mouth shut.
Now, everything fell back to Tsubaki Shinra.
"Well, Tsubaki, can you fulfill this wish of mine?"
"This-"
If it were any other man making this wish, she would directly use the physical memory loss technique. She wouldn't tolerate anyone daring to request such a thing.
But now, it was August, a man with a status far superior to hers. She had no idea how to refuse, and deep down, there was a bit of anticipation and excitement.
Most girls have a tendency to like beautiful clothing, especially such uniforms. It's just that many times, they don't dare to try.
"I can offer ten bottles of Large Health Potion."
"I-"
"Plus ten bottles of Large Magic Potion."
"But-"
"Add ten bottles of each type."
"Alright!"
Tsubaki Shinra agreed. It's not that she lacked self-respect, but the price he offered was too high.
Twenty bottles of Large Health Potion and twenty bottles of Large Magic Potion were already twice the meeting gift for today. It was simply too tempting.
Taking the maid outfit from August's hands, Tsubaki Shinra headed towards the bathroom.
Hilda, on the side, widened her eyes. What does this mean? Didn't she agree only because the price wasn't sufficient?
A devil capable of distributing flyers was undoubtedly a territorial devil. Yet, such a person turned out to be like this. She suddenly felt that devils were all the same, not that different.
With a smile on his face, August took out the phone that Sona had just sent him today.
Unexpectedly, the first photo taken with this phone was of Tsubaki Shinra in a maid outfit!
