Who Can I Reason With?

Top floor of Succubus Castle, Shafna's room.

"Thud."

Amid a muffled sound, Shien, whom Shafna had dragged into the room, was shoved straight onto the bed. He stared blankly at the ceiling.

"Hehe."

Just as she had the past two days, Shafna climbed onto the bed with seductive grace, showing off her perfect, voluptuous figure to the fullest.

Same recipe.

Same flavor.

But Shien felt even more devastated than he had two days ago.

"Witch, what exactly are you trying to do?"

Shien could only cry out in grief and indignation, while making up his mind.

If this witch dared say "You guess" again, he would stop caring about consequences and make her regret it. He would let her know that even Buddha could get angry.

But it seemed she had seen right through him.

"I came to talk to you about something serious, you know?"

Shafna said such words with a perfectly solemn expression.

"Something serious?" Shien's eye twitched. He pointed at her, then at himself. "Have you ever seen anyone discuss serious business on a bed in such an ambiguous position?"

"I certainly haven't." Shafna still looked utterly serious as she said, "That's exactly why it's fun."

You're so shameless.

Shien nearly blurted that out.

He had seen through it too. This woman had probably never been put in her place by a man before, which was why she never got tired of messing with him.

For no other reason than that it was fun.

This Witch had the strongest playful streak among the Six Great Demon Lords. Even Milu, innocent and childlike as she was, could not compare.

Of course, Milu only played games children ought to play, though they could sometimes be dangerous. The games this Witch played, however, were all for adults.

"What a disturbance."
