A dark red Magic Circle gradually appeared.
Shizuka Hiratsuka blinked, watching in disbelief as the Evil Piece slowly sank into her body.
Thump!
The next instant, her pupils dilated, and she felt her heart race.
Something inside her was changing.
At the same time, Lin Luo raised his hand slightly and summoned the Boosted Gear.
A crimson vein of energy slowly flowed into Shizuka Hiratsuka's body.
"There's a strange kind of qi inside her."
"Shizuka Hiratsuka is a martial artist. I wonder which merged world that came from."
After sensing the condition inside Shizuka Hiratsuka's body, Lin Luo's eyes flickered slightly.
"Mmm..."
Just then, the skin on Shizuka Hiratsuka's back writhed. With a ripping sound, a pair of black wings burst out of her body.
Immediately afterward!
A tail with a heart-shaped tip slowly emerged.
"Right, there's also the blessing."
Lin Luo took a few steps forward and looked down at Shizuka Hiratsuka.
"A blessing? What's that?"
Shizuka Hiratsuka blinked, looking a little lost.
"A blessing is the power of a god."
Momoka Ayase kindly explained, "And the way he grants it is..."
Huh?
Huhhh?!
Shizuka Hiratsuka froze, her cheeks visibly reddening.
Is this blessing even legitimate?
As that thought crossed her mind, she saw Lin Luo's ruby-like eyes drawing closer and closer.
"Mmph..."
Shizuka Hiratsuka closed her eyes.
It felt as though some kind of power was flowing through her.
So this is... a god's blessing?
A long while later.
Lin Luo took a few steps back.
"Phew!"
Shizuka Hiratsuka's legs went weak, and she instinctively grabbed the chair with both hands.
Her breathing grew heavier, and her gaze became unfocused.
"..." ×2
Yukino Yukinoshita and Momoka Ayase wore complicated expressions.
This adult doesn't seem all that impressive, either.
She's even worse than us in quite a few ways.
