When his spirit body returned above the gray fog, Klein still had not recovered from the immense, unrelenting pleasure he had just experienced.
He had simply assumed that, after advancing to Sequence 1, he would be able to overpower Angel, who was still at Sequence 2. He could also exploit the "special nature" of today's group wedding to "graft" the Spirit Body Threads of the other marionette couples onto Angel, realizing a kind of play he had imagined before but never had the chance to try...
But he had forgotten that, besides being a Catastrophe Demoness, Angel also possessed the boon of a War Bishop. That meant she could use every ability of Klein's as a member of her team, including Spirit Body Threads, Grafting, and even the Historical Void.
Sharing the sensations and extreme emotions of five versions of myself at once was terrifying... She even learned to borrow strength from her past self in the Historical Void to recover her stamina... How could she be so wicked... Oh, I did it first. Never mind, then... Thoughts kept surfacing in Klein's mind. Only after he gradually calmed down did he extend his spirituality toward the star belonging to Angel, the Empress, and pull her spirit body above the gray fog as well.
Looking at Angel, whose cheeks were still slightly flushed and whose entire body radiated an almost irrepressible charm, Klein let out a long breath, leaned back in his chair, and said slowly:
"I've become a Mystic Seer."
"Yes, I know." Angel nodded calmly. "But there doesn't seem to be much improvement compared to before."
*That's because I only grafted the Spirit Body Threads without making further use of the ability. For example, I could have grafted the beginning and end of a certain state of yours together,
