Chapter 69 The First Familiar
Chapter 69 The First Familiar
After finishing their work at noon, Shichen, Tohru, and Nishiki Chizuka had lunch together.
Thor prepared a lavish meal, and the two kept serving Shichen food, giving him no chance to serve himself.
Kasumigaoka Utaha hadn't returned, and Toki hadn't informed her either. He planned to pick her up after school that afternoon and surprise her.
After lunch, Tohru and Chizuka became quite clingy, holding Tokishi tightly on either side of him while the guests were not around, not letting him go anywhere.
He certainly didn't dislike their behavior; in fact, he quite liked it.
The two of them told him about what had happened in the past month, but nothing much had changed; it was no different from when he was around.
No one disturbed the two of them.
Shi Chen had originally thought that someone would try to win over the two of them while he was away, after all, their appearances were so captivating that they were enough to make anyone infatuated.
Opposites attract; this is a natural law of the world.
It's fine if he doesn't have it, so he won't get jealous.
"By the way, why did those customers call you Chizuka-chan? How did you win them over so quickly?" After listening to their story, Toki couldn't help but ask Chizuka Nishiki.
"Oh, it's all Thor's fault." Chizuka Nishiki glanced at Thor with a coquettish look.
Shichen also looked at her.
"What does this have to do with me?" Thor asked in confusion.
"It's all because of you. You keep calling my name loudly, and the guests heard it."
"Oh, so they're the ones who call you that?" Shi Chen suddenly realized.
"Hmm." Nishiki Chizuki nodded, looking at Shichen with a cheerful smile: "Why did you suddenly ask that, Brother Chen? Are you jealous?"
"What? Is it not allowed?" Shi Chen readily admitted.
"Of course, I'm very happy!" Nishiki Chizuka said with a bright smile.
"Really?" Shichen laughed as well.
"What do you mean by jealous? Why is Lord Chen jealous of Chizuka? What happened? I want Lord Chen to be jealous too!" Tohru didn't understand what the two were talking about at all, but that didn't stop her from joining in the fun.
"Okay, okay, I'll definitely do it next time."
Hehe~
In the afternoon, Shi Chen changed into the store manager's uniform and returned to his position as store manager, sitting idly behind the cashier.
Since there weren't many guests, Chizuka Nishiki and Tohru were in the kitchen researching new recipes, and Shichen wasn't allowed to watch.
In fact, many of the dishes we ate for lunch were developed by the two of them, but since they dared to do them, they must have succeeded in their research.
Shi Chen would rather watch them complete a dish step by step, since the main purpose was to make it for him to eat.
But girls are easily shy, and they're embarrassed to show off something that's not finished.
Thor has now fully adapted to her identity as a girl; she has acquired common sense about humanity and developed a girl's personality.
But it's still a little pervert.
Because the two hadn't been studying for long, Thor came out of the kitchen and took Shichen to buy ingredients.
Purchasing ingredients has always been Tohru's job, since it's very convenient for her to bring them back. Even though Tokimatsu is involved, Chizuka Nishiki doesn't suspect anything.
But time doesn't tell the same thing.
Just as he expected, not long after the two left the coffee shop, she cast an invisibility spell, transformed back into a dragon, and flew into the sky with the time.
Shichen stopped being hypocritical and lay on Thor's back, waiting for her to take him to their destination. Perfect timing, he still wanted revenge.
This time, let the dragon maids see his power.
"Lord Chen, we've arrived."
"It's still here." Shichen sat up and realized that the place Thor had brought him to was the same place where the two of them had used the sky as their blanket.
The clouds quickly gathered and formed a large, cotton-like bed, on which Thor could roll around and play freely.
Practice makes perfect. Time jumped off Thor's back and gently landed on the cloud bed.
"Lord Chen?" Thor noticed the difference in time.
"Didn't I say? I'm going to gain power, not to go out and play." Shi Chen looked up at her, hands on his hips, and boasted.
"Lord Chen is so amazing!" Thor was genuinely happy for Chen's increased strength. Then, she shrunk in size and returned to human form, completely naked, and landed.
"I'm really powerful now, and it won't be long before I avenge you." Shi Chen's gaze fell on Thor, making no attempt to hide it.
"Yes, yes, I believe in Lord Chen!" Thor was naturally not shy.
"Don't you want to know how strong I've become?" Shichen couldn't help but ask.
"Lord Chen, now is not the time to talk about such things!" Thor said with a smile as he slowly walked up to Shi Chen.
"...Alright, I'll show you just how strong I've become."
"Huh?" Thor tilted his head, puzzled.
Without explaining, Shi Chen asked just in case, "Is the barrier set up?"
"It's all set up, no one will find out!" Thor was getting more and more excited.
"That's fine."
"Lord Chen, shall I help you take off your clothes?" Thor eagerly reached out his hand.
"Okay..." Shi Chen twitched the corner of his mouth and turned his back to her.
"Hehe~" Thor hugged Shichen from behind and then unbuttoned his clothes.
Feeling the softness on his back, Shi Chen felt restless and his breathing became rapid.
His pupils turned crimson, his fangs stirred and slowly grew out, and at that moment, he suddenly wanted to drink blood.
This wasn't a vampire's impulse, but rather his familiars urging him to offer them their blood so that he could awaken them.
It is clear that Thor is qualified, even though she has already dedicated herself to the Hour.
Now that Shichen possesses the body of a true ancestor and has immense magical power within him, the familiar beast residing within the fragment of his divine essence can no longer restrain itself.
"Lord Chen..."
Thor's voice rang out in unison. No one knew where she had learned to be so adept at undressing people. Shichen's shopkeeper's uniform had already fallen to the ground, leaving only a pair of black boxer shorts.
Shichen turned around, his scarlet eyes captivating. His gaze fell on Thor's fair and smooth neck, burning with intensity.
"Lord Chen?" Thor looked at him in confusion.
"Thor..." Shichen's breathing was heavy: "I might need a little of your blood."
"Blood?" Thor blinked. "Lord Chen, my blood is extremely poisonous to humans."
"It should be fine for me."
"Is that so? Then Lord Chen, please take it." Thor smiled slightly.
"Um!"
Unable to restrain himself, Shichen grabbed Thor and hugged her tightly, burying his face in her left neck, his fangs digging into her skin.
"Hmm..." Thor murmured softly, his eyes still heavy with sleep.
This is not simply bloodsucking, nor is it the vampire's feeding; for the vampire, it is a different kind of pleasure.
Thor was aroused.
Time greedily sucked Thor's hot blood. He had expected it to be rusty or have a fishy smell, but it was sweet and delicious.
No wonder vampires are humanity's greatest enemy in the world of Strike the Blood.
He dared not inhale too much, and stopped when one of the divine fragments within his body emitted light.
"Hey——!"
Just then, a loud cry rang out from within Shi Chen's body, followed by a massive surge of magical power that shot from his body into the sky.
The magic stopped at the top of the barrier and slowly formed a huge, colorful bird-beast, which began to soar and fly.
"That is..." Shi Chen recognized it immediately after seeing its appearance.
So, they were his familiars?
No wonder the Fourth Ancestor's familiars weren't suitable for him; compared to them, they seemed a bit lacking.
"Lord Chen..." Thor's hazy voice rang out.
Shichen looked down at the charming Thor, her beautiful face and her blood-stained neck.
Now doesn't seem like the time to focus on familiars.
Shichen leaned down and kissed Thor fiercely.
Thor wrapped his arms around him and responded warmly.
"Hey——!"
In the sky, colorful birds and beasts are singing, and above the clouds, there are songs sung by young girls.
The combination of the two is not strange at all; on the contrary, it is exceptionally harmonious.
