The Temptation of Chocolate? (6K)

"Yes, Mahiro, there are two things I need to trouble you with," Gamma said solemnly, his smile fading.

"Okay, let's hear about it then."

"Okay, the first thing is about Ita. She said she wants to examine your pistol, but I don't know if that's possible..."

When Gamma said those words, she was extremely nervous, even cautious.

After all, that's Mahiro's weapon; they can't just use it for casual research...

But Ita said that Mahiro had promised her that she could use it for research.

Hearing this, and with Ita's persistent pleading, Gamma finally dared to speak.

In that brief silence, Mahiro what was in his mouth and said something that surprised Gamma.

"I thought it was something serious, but it's just this... Next time, there's no need to go through all this trouble; just send someone to my dorm to pick it up."

As he spoke, under Gamma's astonished gaze, he took the Night Demon from his arms and placed it on the table.

He had made an agreement with Ita.

The agreement stipulated that he would use the Night Demon.

Although this general-purpose specialized CAD pistol was just an ordinary, handy weapon in his eyes, Ita developed a strong interest in it.

She was very curious about how those strange spells were released from this pistol.

What Mahiro didn't expect was that he would have to borrow it from him today.

So before handing it over to Gamma, he did one more thing.

"Est."

"Mahiro, what do you need me for?"

The summoned Est rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked lazily.

Perhaps because she was tired from playing outside, Est has been staying quietly in the imprint and sleeping soundly these days.

If Mahiro hadn't called out to her, she probably would have slept even longer.

But for the waiters and staff, it was a different story. To summon a beautiful girl out of thin air was like looking at a Mahiro.

Even Gamma was the same, her eyes sparkling as she cast an excited glance at him.

It was as if they had witnessed a divine miracle.

"I'd like to ask you, can you replicate the performance of this weapon?"

That's right, he wanted Est to have the same capabilities as CAD.

As far as he knew, the elves who wielded swords did not have a fixed form after forming a pact; that is to say, a sword did not necessarily have to be a sword, and could also be transformed into something like knives or spears.

It can change its form according to the contractor's wishes.

Therefore, instead of waiting for Est to get jealous of Night Demon, it would be better to have Est simply disable Night Demon's functionality.

Then they simply let Night Demon go play with Ita.

Given Ita's abilities, replicating CAD shouldn't be too difficult. This would give them a deeper understanding of technological magic and also add to their combat capabilities in other areas.

"If that's what you wish for."

Est said seriously, completely free of the drowsy feeling she had just had.

It transformed directly into a stream of light and converged in his hand, and a moment later a blue-silver pistol appeared.

This time, no summoning spell was even used.

"Can Est transform into a longsword and also possess CAD capabilities?"

[Can]

As soon as he finished speaking, the pistol reconstructed itself, transforming into the Demon-Slaying Holy Sword.

Extremely satisfying.

It was so exhilarating that you didn't even need to use a summoning spell.

Yotsuba Mahiro: "..."

How afraid they are of him using other weapons...

It feels like there's another way to manipulate Est.

Mahiro a slight loosening of his grip, the Demon-Slaying Holy Sword in his hand vanished, turning into particles of light that returned to the engraving on the back of his hand.

"Alright, Gamma, please take this Night Demon and the matching dagger to Ita for me."

"You're welcome, it's my honor, my lord."

Gamma waved for him to carefully place the Night Demon Set in the treasure chest and leave, then bowed deeply to him.

Gamma understood all too well what Night Demon meant to Mahiro.

For so many years, Mahiro has been using that peculiar pistol, and it can be said that he never leaves it behind.

Even after Miss Est appeared, the frequency of her use didn't decrease much.

But I never expected that they would entrust such a precious weapon to them so readily today.

This trust from Mahiro is truly touching...

"Alright, alright, it's no big deal, Gamma."

Let's talk about the second thing.

"Yes, my lord."

Gamma gently wiped away the glistening tears from the corners of his eyes and looked at him again, saying:

"Another thing is a message from the White Tower in the Lawless City."

You mean the Snow Woman?

"Yes."

Gamma nodded and said, "Snow Princess sent a message saying, '[Everything is ready, the White Tower awaits your arrival].'"

Mahiro was quite surprised when he heard this message.

I never expected that after several years, the Snow Woman's side would actually achieve something. I originally thought it would take much longer.

That's true. Nowadays, the Snow Woman's strength is no longer that of the weak fox in the original story who could only play tricks.

He is a terrifyingly powerful being whose strength rivals that of Alpha.

In terms of tiers, they should be considered T1 in this world, basically without any rivals...

"My Lord."

"Um?"

Just as he was reminiscing about his past with the Snow Woman, Gamma's voice brought him back to his senses.

"What's up?"

"Um... my lord, do you intend to travel to the Lawless City Return to subdue the legendary [Blood Queen]? If so, please grant me permission to overstep my bounds and immediately summon the Seven Shadows to accompany you."

Gamma knelt on one knee and spoke earnestly, like a subject willing to die to remonstrate with his ruler.

Titles such as Blood Queen, progenitor of vampires, vampire princess who destroyed a nation, and master of the Crimson Tower all revolve around a vampire named Elizabeth.

Elizabeth is said to have existed for over a thousand years, and a terrifying being who caused the destruction of many nations a thousand years ago.

After this intelligence was relayed to the Shadow Garden, even Alpha couldn't help but show a solemn expression after reading it.

Therefore, Gamma was very worried that something might happen to Mahiro Shinji during this process...

"Gamma."

A soft call brought Gamma back to reality, as if an invisible force compelled her to raise her head.

However, when she looked at Mahiro, her pupils involuntarily contracted.

"My Lord..."

Although he still rested his head on one hand and wore a kind smile, his refined and easygoing demeanor had completely changed, radiating an aura of power that could subdue all things.

"Gamma, who do you think I am?"

Mahiro's voice was very soft, but the moment it echoed, everyone in the room immediately knelt down on one knee.

"I am so sorry, my lord, I..."

Gamma felt a tightness in her chest, then lowered her head deeply, biting her lower lip, tears welling up in her eyes.

Yes.

Who is my lord?

He is the strongest person in the world, her savior, her hero!

How could I be afraid of a mere vampire princess!

If it weren't for Mahiro, she would probably have long since turned into a pile of rotting flesh, abandoned by her family, banished from her hometown, and plunged into Abyss of pain, fear, and despair from losing everything.

And then die alone in some shadowy corner, perhaps?

The pure white light that enveloped her belonged to the Shadow Garden, to Alpha, and to her salvation.

That voice, that unforgettable face, was her hero, her savior.

Just like now, back then, a hand gently lifted her chin, and her reflection was seen in those deep, dark pupils...

"My... my lord... wait?!"

The next moment, Gamma suddenly felt herself enveloped in a warm embrace, causing her delicate body to stiffen.

I was kissed.

I was actually kissed by Mahiro- sama!

The surrounding waiters stared wide-eyed and covered their mouths at the sight.

They dared not make a sound, nor dared to look away for even a moment, as if they wanted to imprint this scene firmly in their minds!

Gamma offered no resistance; instead, her body gradually relaxed, she slowly closed her eyes, and gently parted her lips to quietly enjoy the moment.

Mahiro- sama's kiss was so warm...

Gamma never expected that she would obtain the thing she had longed for most in her life so easily.

Not only her, but all the members of the Seven Shadows shared this desire: to be intimate with Mahiro and to be with him.

I dedicate everything I have to my Lord!

But they dared not, fearing they would overstep their bounds, fearing they would defile him, feeling they were simply not qualified. After Mahiro was so distant from them, seemingly untouchable...

But in reality, they are so close...

After a long while, their lips parted.

"Ah..."

Having lost that warmth, Gamma felt a slight sense of loss, but she was completely powerless and couldn't even hug Mahiro.

He collapsed to the ground.

My body trembled slightly involuntarily.

"My lord, I..."

"Sorry, Gamma, did I scare you just now?"

"No, that's not it..."

"Thank you for your concern, I understand you're worried about my safety. But if you rush off together and get hurt, I'll be even more heartbroken."

Mahiro gently wiped away the uneasy tears from the elf girl's eyes.

Feeling the tenderness from Mahiro, Gamma shook her head vigorously and retorted:
