CRASH!
"Hey, watch where you’re going, idiot!" Eliss snaps, landing hard on her ass after colliding with Aoshi as they round the corner at the sa ti.
"S-Sorry... I was kinda lost in thought," Aoshi Toya mutters.
He offers her a hand to help her up, but she swats it away, annoyed.
Ugh, here we go again — another pathetic pervert using this as an excuse to hit on , even after I yelled at him. Humans are all the sa... boring, predictable...
But...
"Sorry again. Have a good evening," Aoshi Toya says, giving a small, polite bow.
He simply walks past her, leaving Eliss sitting there on the sidewalk, frozen in disbelief.
Is he ssing with ?! — the great Princess Eliss Narkhalis — ignored by so random human?! Impossible! Maybe... maybe he didn’t get a good look at ! Yes, that has to be it!
Eliss springs to her feet in an instant. She unbuttons her blouse, pulling it open to show off her outrageously full chest. Then she hikes up her miniskirt, baring her thighs completely.
Alright, this ti that loser is definitely going to fall for it! Still... the fact I had to go this far ans he’s earned at least a little respect. No doubt about it — the toughest human I’ve ever co across.
"Hey, you — where do you think you’re going?" Eliss calls out, raising her voice toward Aoshi, already several ters away.
He slowly turns to face her, his eyes cold and empty as she does everything she can to show herself off.
No reaction. No response. Not even the slightest hint of interest.
Nothing — despite her being half-naked.
"Do you need sothing?" Aoshi asks, calm and detached. His body is there, but his mind feels miles away.
Eliss freezes. More than shocked — she’s devastated.
In all her twenty years, no one has ever ignored her like this. For her, this goes beyond an insult — it’s humiliation.
"Well..."
Her voice turns warm, sensual.
"...after bumping into , the least you could do to make it up to is..."
She doesn’t even finish the sentence — she just hikes her skirt higher, up to her navel, revealing her red lace panties.
A sight enough to drive anyone mad... anyone but Aoshi.
"You’re a friend of Miori, right? Did she send you to comfort — or just to rub it in and make feel even worse? Look, today’s not my day. You should go ho — it’s late, and there are plenty of shady guys around. It’s not safe for a girl to be out alone."
Miori? And who the hell is Miori?!
Of course... dead eyes, a bouquet dragging along the asphalt — there’s only one conclusion. This loser just got dumped!
I don’t know who this Miori is, but I’m at least a million tis sexier than her! And he’s still thinking about her even now?! What the hell is wrong with this idiot?! I’ve never felt this humiliated in my life!
Fine... then it’s ti to get serious!
Eliss steps toward him, her stride firm, her gaze unwavering.
Now they stand face to face.
"You did well to resist — I’ll give you that. But rember this: I never lose. Now you’ll fall at my feet like everyone else. Ga over, loser."
Her eyes flare with a sinister violet glow — and Aoshi’s mirror them.
She’s casting Seduction Magic — a variant of Charming Magic.
While Charming Magic lets her control the minds of those already drawn to her, Seduction Magic takes even the faintest spark of attraction and twists it into an uncontrollable obsession.
Even if that empty little head of his is filled with nothing but his precious Miori, all it takes is the faintest trace of desire for — and this magic will make him fall hopelessly in love in an instant! Just one second, and...
The violet glow fades from their eyes. The spell worked perfectly.
And yet... nothing.
Aoshi remains exactly as he was — lost in his depression, his empty, puzzled gaze fixed on Eliss.
What... what the hell just happened? Why is he still standing there like nothing happened? It should’ve worked perfectly — so why... why is my heart racing?! Why are my legs shaking... my breath getting heavier... and why do I feel wet down there...?!
Eliss’s eyes widen. She freezes in terror.
N-No... that’s not possible...
Eliss stands motionless, staring at Aoshi.
T-That guy... ssy hair, those plain eyes, that hopeless nerd face... why is he so... so... attractive?! What the hell is happening to ?! No, impossible! I can’t be in love with him! My own spell... did it backfire on ?! How?! And now what do I do? The only way to undo it would be a counter-spell... but I don’t even know it! I’m not even sure it exists!
This is a tragedy... a real tragedy!
"Are you okay? Should I call an ambulance?" Aoshi asks.
His voice... so flat, so monotone — and yet insanely sexy! I could lt right here! So this is what Seduction Magic feels like? What a nightmare... Raelor, where are you?! Help !!!
Eliss can’t speak.
Aoshi shrugs and turns — he’s only a few steps from ho. But sothing — or rather, soone — stops him. Eliss suddenly drops at his feet, clinging desperately to his legs.
"How can you leave here after making fall in love with you?! You heartless bastard!"
"Let go — and when you see Miori, tell her that, despite everything, I was happy during that month. Good night."
"Stop talking about this Miori!" Eliss snaps, jealousy in her voice. "I don’t even know who she is, and I don’t care! The sooner you forget her, the better — then we can spend the rest of our lives together!"
Oh shit... why am I saying this to soone like him?! If the incubi I turned down saw now, they’d laugh forever! And my sister Vanya would never let live it down! This is so humiliating...
Aoshi looks down at her, almost pitying.
Poor girl... drunk, high, or both. About my age... and already like this? What a pain...
Still, I can’t leave her here. It’s late, and there are people who wouldn’t hesitate to take advantage of soone this vulnerable.
"Ahhh... fine. You can stay at my place tonight."
He offers her a hand — and this ti, she doesn’t push it away. Instead, she latches onto his arm, clinging to it like a monkey to a branch.
"But tomorrow morning, when you’ve sobered up, you go ho. Got it?"
Eliss nods frantically, eyes shining with joy.
The nerve... he wasted no ti inviting to stay the night! What a shaless man... taking advantage of a young, innocent beauty like !
So... why am I this happy?! Why is my heart racing?! And why... why do I actually hope he says sothing like, "Sorry, my place is tiny — we’ll have to share the futon"? Ahh... this is insane! How can I be so completely into soone so insignificant?!
It only takes a couple of minutes to reach Aoshi’s place — an old apartnt with thin walls, rusty stairs, and small balconies cramd with plants and hanging laundry — the best a broke college student can afford.
When he opens the door, Eliss’s eyes light up — it’s exactly the tiny dump she imagined. Worse, even.
It looks like a bomb went off: wrinkled clothes everywhere, piles of dirty dishes in the sink, dust coating every surface, and more.
As a princess, this would’ve driven her insane — but now, that cramped, neglected den feels more welcoming than the royal palace she left behind.
"Sorry, my place is small and I only have one futon..." Aoshi begins — and Eliss is already hanging on his every word.
"...so you take it. I’ll manage. I can sleep in the tub for one night."
W-What?! He didn’t even suggest sharing it?! Either he’s completely depressed... or the most asexual guy alive! Fine, better this way! Tomorrow I’ll go back to Elyndra and have Raelor break this stupid curse — he’s the strongest incubus there is, it’ll be nothing for him!
