Anime Girls are Moist Chapter 124 124: The Terms of Gabriel's Loan

After the hero's party disappeared into the distance, Frieren tilted her head curiously and asked, "Rei Ao, why did you deliberately remind earlier?"

She felt as though Rei Ao's words had been intentional, and her curiosity was piqued.

However, Rei Ao responded with a serious expression.

"Apologies, I only felt that if you joined their team, I would lose you."

He was selfish.

To put it bluntly, he wanted Frieren for himself.

Although he neither disliked nor liked Himl—the so-called 'True Hero'—and even respected him, he wasn't about to let go of what he truly desired.

What he wanted, he would claim through his own efforts. If this made him selfish, so be it.

He wanted Frieren's thoughts and heart to be filled with him, not with Himl.

"Oh," Frieren replied, sensing sothing odd in his words but not fully understanding his emotions.

She patted him lightly on the back with a small smile. "They can't exterminate all the demons anyway. I'm still waiting for the day when you help achieve that."

Rei Ao smiled back. "That day won't be far off."

…

Soon after, Sui and the others returned.

The only notable gain was from gumi Kato, who had reached level 10. Her progress was impressive, and her newfound strength was being likened to breaking down walls.

"It's ti for us to head back," Rei Ao said, scanning everyone.

Aside from Utaha's apparent exhaustion, everyone seed fine.

Before they left, Rei Ao turned to Frieren.

"Even though you didn't learn much from , I did learn a very special magic from you."

"I'll demonstrate it for you."

"Hm?" Frieren looked puzzled.

She was about to ask what he ant when the group disappeared into the void.

"What kind of magic?" she wondered aloud.

As if responding to her thoughts, a breeze stirred her silvery hair.

She turned her head—

"!!!"

Before her was a world of flowers.

Countless petals danced in the air, blooming into an endless array of vibrant colors. Familiar and unfamiliar blossoms alike unfolded around her, forming an ocean of flowers in re monts.

"This is… Field of Flowers Magic…" Frieren murmured.

Field of Flowers Magic.

It was her favorite magic.

…

anwhile, petals drifted into Himl's view, evoking mories of his childhood.

"Himl," Heiter asked curiously, "do you know that elf?"

"…Yes, but it was a long ti ago."

He rembered a distant mont when a kind elf had used flowers to guide his lost, younger self back ho.

Heiter and Eisen exchanged glances, sensing there was more to the story.

"Why didn't you try harder to persuade her to join us?"

"…"

Himl remained silent for a mont, then reached out to catch one of the falling petals. A soft, warm smile spread across his face.

"What's done is done. Let's focus on finding another mage."

His mind briefly lingered on Rei Ao's presence and Frieren's choice.

He understood now—what Frieren needed wasn't a hero.

…

Returning from the trade would normally be uneventful for Rei Ao, but this ti he found himself in a particularly awkward situation.

Seated on his lap, wrapped in a bath towel and faintly exuding a delicate fragrance, was none other than Raphiel.

The two stared at each other.

Rei Ao could feel the warmth and softness of her body.

Raphiel, too, had noticed the shift beneath her.

The tension was palpable, making the air feel as if it had frozen solid.

Finally, Rei Ao broke the silence.

"Would you believe if I said this was just a beautiful misunderstanding, Raphiel?"

"…"

Raphiel didn't answer.

She calmly tightened the towel around herself and stood up, her usual serene smile now emitting a chilling aura.

"Rei Ao, weren't you supposed to be gone? Why did you suddenly appear here?"

Rei Ao sighed, offering a helpless explanation.

"I left and returned using teleportation magic, so… here I am."

Despite the suggestive circumstances, Rei Ao refrained from letting his gaze wander.

As he glanced around, he noticed that the remnants of their gathering had been neatly cleaned up, and no one else seed to be around.

It appeared the dinner had ended.

"…"

Raphiel didn't detect any signs of lying from Rei Ao.

For the mont, she didn't press further. After all, this did appear to be an accidental mishap.

"Hmm? Rei Ao?"

Gabriel poked her head out from her room at that mont, her eyes lighting up.

She dashed over barefoot, grabbing his arm without warning and dragging him toward her room.

"Co with !"

Rei Ao gave Raphiel an apologetic glance before standing up and letting Gabriel pull him into her room.

This left Raphiel standing there, glancing down at her towel-wrapped body with a troubled expression.

…

Gabriel dragged Rei Ao into her room, not even bothering to close the door properly.

She pointed to her computer screen, where a ga was on display, and said, "Rei Ao, lend so more money."

Rei Ao raised an eyebrow. "How much this ti? Another 10,000?"

"Ahem, let's make it 20,000 this ti," Gabriel replied, her face not betraying the slightest embarrassnt.

It seed that after her secret was completely exposed, Gabriel's shalessness had reached new heights.

"20,000..." Rei Ao rubbed his chin, pondering for a mont. "If that's the case, I think it's ti we change the terms of our agreent."

"Huh?" Gabriel squinted. "Change… the terms?"

Rei Ao smirked. "You should realize by now that with the amount you owe, there's no way you can pay it back—right?"

"Uh…"

Cold sweat ford on Gabriel's forehead.

The amount had indeed reached a point where paying it back was impossible. No matter how hard she tried, she'd never manage it.

Rei Ao extended his hand. "Give another contract. Look over the new terms I've drafted."

"S-sure…"

Gabriel obediently handed him a blank contract.

Monts later, Rei Ao presented the newly drafted terms.

…

[Contract]

[Terms: Rei Ao will lend money to Gabriel freely, with no obligation for repaynt.]

…

Gabriel's eyes widened as she read.

"No need to repay the money?"

Wasn't this just free cash? Was there a catch?

Good fortune?

Heh.

Rei Ao gestured with a smile. "Look at the conditions."

…

[Conditions: Each loan may not exceed 5,000 at a ti. For amounts exceeding 5,000, it will be considered a new transaction, requiring Gabriel to pay a price.]

[The price will be determined by Rei Ao. Gabriel has the right to refuse, which will cancel the loan.]

…

"A price?" Gabriel looked up at him. "What kind of price?"

Rei Ao shrugged. "For example, helping with chores, cleaning the house, or… like last ti."

"L-like last ti…"

Gabriel's cheeks turned red as she recalled what "last ti" ant. The previous loan required her to kiss him on the cheek as paynt.

"Isn't there so other way?"

Even in her fallen state, Gabriel still found that kind of paynt hard to discuss.

"You can't pay the money back anyway. This is the only way I don't lose out, isn't it?" Rei Ao spread his hands, feigning helplessness.

"Besides, this is practically giving you money for free."

It appeared she had a choice, but in reality, she didn't.

As long as Gabriel needed money, she'd have little choice but to agree.

"Fine, I agree," Gabriel finally relented, as Rei Ao had expected.

Her gaming addiction ultimately outweighed her pride.

She took the contract and stamped it with her handprint.

…

"Alright, the contract is finalized," Rei Ao declared with a smile. "So, are you borrowing 20,000 this ti?"

Gabriel nodded hesitantly. "Yes… What's the price?"

"Since 20,000 is equivalent to four separate transactions, and if we set a single kiss as the price for one transaction, that ans four kisses. How does that sound?"

Rei Ao's devilish smile grew as he laid out his terms.

"H-huh?" Gabriel was dumbfounded.

F-four kisses?!

"Um… Can't we change the terms?"

"Sure," Rei Ao replied with a mysterious grin. "One 'handjob' instead."

"Hand... what?" Gabriel blinked, unfamiliar with the term.

Rei Ao leaned in and whispered the explanation into her ear.

"!!!"

Her face turned crimson at an alarming rate.

"T-that's impossible! How could I do sothing like that?!"

She finally understood what he ant, and just the thought of it made her want to dig a hole and hide.

"You have the right to refuse," Rei Ao said nonchalantly. "If you refuse, I'll head out now."

With that, he walked toward the door, hand on the handle.

"Wait!"

Gabriel tugged at the hem of his shirt with her small hand.

Turning her head away in embarrassnt, she murmured, "Fine. Four kisses for 20,000."

"Of course."

Rei Ao took out his phone and transferred the money.

[Ding! Your account has been credited with 20,000!]

Gabriel barely registered the notification before Rei Ao pointed at her computer.

"Go ahead and spend it on your ga. I'll wait."

"!!!"

For a mont, Gabriel thought Rei Ao was a saint.

Letting her focus on her ga first? Was he actually such a good person?

Wasting no ti, she started pouring the money into the ga, gleefully buying the set of gear she had long desired.

With her new equipnt ready, Gabriel bead with satisfaction.

"Alright! Ti to test out how powerful this gear is!"

Just as she prepared to dive into the ga, however—

"Mm!!"

Her eyes widened as her lips were suddenly seized.

It was Rei Ao!
