I became a heart-stealing thief in Azure Files

Amamiya feigned surprise: "...Isn't Misaki with me right now?"

"No... I mean another way, another level, another meaning of 'being together.'"

"..."

After a moment of confusion, Misaki found the most accurate description she could think of.

"...It's like Sensei calling me 'Xiao Mi,' calling me like a cat, treating me like that."

“I want to... maintain a relationship with Sensei that is like this, or even closer.”

"I want to be with Sensei in this way..."

"I want to be Sensei's 'pet girl'."

Amamiya was somewhat dumbfounded.

It's hard to imagine that this is something a girl who was 'deeply depressed before joining Xia Lai' would say.

But the fact that she can say such things... also proves that Misaki's 'incomplete' self, which was harmed by Beatrice, is gradually being truly restored.

"That's it..."

After a moment of surprise, Amamiya's smile gradually became ambiguous: "...I understand Misaki's thoughts."

"Would Sensei accept me?"

Amamiya brushed aside the girl's bangs and gently kissed her forehead.

"Why wouldn't you want to? After all, Xiaomi is so cute..."

"Whether you raise them before or now, it's still the same..."

After responding with his actions, Amamiya took the initiative to embrace her.

[I've developed a special relationship with Misaki...]

There's no going back...

【Kasano Misaki (God of Death) ★★★★★★★☆☆☆】

……

[Title changed to Lin Yiqi I dance 9 like a dove`*:岄.亿R化!]

[Those who turned to disaster and abandoned their lives → Those who were reborn and freed from disaster]

After a long embrace, the girl, who seemed to have received enough tenderness, spoke again.

"Sensei..."

"Ok?"

Before going back... could we... spend a little more time alone?

"Ah."

Chapter 5 Succubus Mode, activated!

"Do you all still remember the story of Gerina?"

"Back in the day... in this academy, a place of outstanding talents and abundant geniuses, there was a being called the 'Thunder Emperor'..."

"Until later, the invincible Makoto (emphasis added) finally ascended to the throne of the Pandemonium Chairman, defeating the other Pandemonium Chairman candidates who were known as invincible."

"Oh ho~~"

"Makoto~! You're so~ amazing!"

"Haha, this little girl is incredibly strong!"

"I'm hungry too."

On the way to Gehenna, Amamiya sat in the smooth train, with a blue-haired girl nestled beside him, looking languid, propping up a tablet with her thigh and playing videos.

Listening to the narration coming from the wireless headphones, which was probably in the style of "movable type printing" unique to some kind of Graham culture, clearly pieced together word by word, it had an odd, punctuated quality that made it both comical and ridiculous...

After making eye contact with Fubuki, who was biting into a donut and looking down, Amamiya gave her a questioning look.

Why is the introductory video for Gerina that Fubuki found like this?

The latter shrugged slightly and returned a very calm look.

'This one got the most views on social media, so I clicked on it.'

The video is still playing.

“Chairwoman Makoto’s ability to suffer setbacks is unmatched.”

"Councilor Iroha, would you like to learn about the unique slacking techniques of our Pandemonium? She is the slacking expert of our Pandemonium."

“Member Ibuki is a mascot.”

"There's one more, I reckon it might be Representative Motomiya Chiaki."

"I am Satsuki, the intelligence chief of the Pandemonium."

Upon hearing this, Amamiya couldn't help but laugh.

It seems this video was made by Satsuki... or rather, by members of her intelligence department.

But is it really okay to make up stories about your own 'bosses' like this?

Moreover, it was blatantly displayed on the official account of the Pandemonium, becoming the most-viewed "promotional" video...

Do all the members of the Pandemonium not use the internet?!

As the video came to an end, Fubuki quickly exited full-screen mode, paused the webpage refresh, and stopped the automatic redirection.

Then, she waved her hand at Amamiya, making a gesture of asking for it.

Amamiya was taken aback, then moved closer to observe Fubuki's lazy and boring expression.

A little strange...

Her own 'charm' easily fails when facing Kirino, and the same is true when facing Fubuki.

As for Ye Zhu... he didn't show the slightest bit of 'extra emotion'.

Amamiya was certain that this situation did not indicate a decline in her charm attribute.

That means... the students have become more resistant to themselves?

"...Sensei?"

As Fubuki leaned back to create some distance, she raised her eyelids slightly and whispered a reminder.

Amamiya remained silent, took off the other wireless earphone she was wearing, and placed it back in Fubuki's palm.

"...Fubuki."

"Hmm, what's wrong, Sensei?"

The girl, with her eyes half-closed in a lazy manner, showed no change in expression. As if she had expected this, she directly blocked Amamiya's attempt to change the subject: "...If you want to ask about the recent situation of the Valkyrie Public Security Bureau, I can only say that it is very bad."

"Right now, the Public Security Bureau has almost completely shut down. With Director Ye Zhu gone, Deputy Director Mu Naixiang, um..."

After carefully considering her words, Fubuki felt that since she had now joined Xia Lai, it was okay to use some adjectives. She succinctly summarized: "...not up to the task."

Amamiya: "..."

Is this the unique resentment that "working people" have towards their "bosses"?

"That's not what I meant to ask..."

Amamiya remains in a blank state, with no bond skills activated, and simply tries to exude her charm.

"Fubuki..."

"What do you think about me?"

"How about what?"

Fubuki was puzzled for a moment, then looked Amamiya up and down before suddenly understanding.

Oh... does Sensei want to be 'complimented'?

"Yes, in my opinion, Sensei is very mature and handsome, and a very reliable adult."

"I've had a more comfortable time with Xia Lai than I have with the Valkyrie Security Bureau."

Fubuki's words were not against her conscience; in fact, they could be described as quite "sincere"—after all, Valkyrie was currently in a state of chaos, and although the Bureau of Life Safety had not yet shut down, it had been affected to some extent.

In this situation, being able to "protect oneself" is already a very fortunate thing.

But her calm, even slightly languid, tone made Fubuki's 'truthful words' sound somewhat perfunctory.

"..."

After staring at Fubuki for several seconds, Amamiya looked away.

It seems that after the students of Kivotos gradually got used to my charm, my charm, which I usually don't use for bond skills, has gradually become somewhat ordinary.

It's time to further 'let go of the shackles of self-indulgence'.

For example... adding a permanent "Succubus Mode"?

Think about it, those skills could be permanently available...

First, the three bond skills obtained from Hifumi—【Cute Destructive Desire】, 【Kindness and Affinity】, and 【Ordinary Girl's Fragrance】—should all be suitable for inclusion in the bond skill list of "Succubus Mode".

Then there are Xiaoyu's two bond skills - [Voice of the Stars] & [Voice of Emotion], which can be described as versatile.

Next are Kayoko's two bond skills—[Evil Charm] & [Animal Affinity]. These two skills have a slightly narrower scope of application, but students with 'evil' attributes and students with 'animalistic characteristics' are quite common in Giwatos.

Wakazama's [Crimson Calamity Charm] buff is just too overpowered...

However, the ability of [alluring aura] is a versatile ability that another version of myself hasn't used in a long time.

And then there's Zhu Yin's [Elegant Penetration] – this 'pre-emptive defense-breaking ability' is absolutely indispensable.

Then comes the crucial ability to instantly manipulate the affection level—Yuzu's [Game Queen's Love Cheat Code] and Xiao Lü's [Emotional Filter].

Yuzu's bond ability allows for 'free adjustment of affinity levels for a very short time'. It can serve as the core of all bond skills.

Xiao Lü's bond ability effect is the "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" filter bonus, which can also be used as a core "filter" or "enhancing" effect.

So... the basic operation of the [Succubus Mode] has been decided.

With the "Game Queen's Love Cheat Code" as the core skill, and the other skills existing as auxiliary functions and enhancements, a very stable "Succubus Mode" is formed that will not directly cause students to lose their minds.

As for the test objectives...

Hmm, judging from Fubuki's seemingly high resistance, maybe... I should just let her suffer a little?

Thinking of this, Amamiya looked at Fubuki, who was sitting next to him searching for information about the Pandemonium, and instantly activated her 'Succubus Mode'.

"Fubuki?"

"What's wrong now, Sen..."

The slight impatience hidden in Fubuki's words vanished instantly, like ice melting away, when she saw Amamiya's profile.

Her movements froze instantly, and her breath caught in her throat. At that moment, Fubuki experienced what 'utter silence' truly meant.

How can I describe the sight of that short-haired young man I saw at that moment, who remained calm and silent, simply looking at me with a smile?

The first adjective that came to mind when Fubuki thought of was 'seductive'.

—That's right, it's "glamorous".

It transcends all aesthetic standards, overwhelming all defenses like a torrent of crimson.

'Click, click...'

During that brief moment of stunned silence, Fubuki seemed to hear the clock hands being turned and the sound of her stomach swelling rapidly.

Emotions exploded instantly, heart pounded, throat went dry, eyes trembled...

Fubuki swallowed hard, using almost all the willpower she had ever had in her life, before she finally managed to pull her gaze away from Amamiya's neck and collarbone, as well as the chest muscles that were faintly visible beneath his shirt.

Strange, strange...
