The Demon of Pleasure: Starting with Angel, Shiina Mahiru! Chapter 153 153: Meeting with Nagi! Plans to Push for the Fu

Flushed with that hefty tip, Hayashi Maki was in a fantastic mood.

Turns out "eating ojou-sama's soft rice" really is the fastest path to financial freedom.

And with different ojou-samas, playing to their tastes was exactly his edge. After all, if he wanted to form pacts with "familiars," how could he not understand them?

He was about to buy so treats to share his joy with the girls when a friend request popped up on his phone, with a note:

"Kurosora Twilight-sensei, I'm your fan, Sanzenin Nagi (she cheekily wrote it as Sanzen 'Yen' Nagi). I'm very bullish on your items—may I add you?"

Hayashi Maki could only smile wryly at the pun, but he accepted imdiately. Drawing the ojou-sama's attention through a novel was part of his plan anyway.

He ssaged right away.

Kurosora Twilight: "Hello, Nagi-san. That tip was from you, right? To be honest, it scared ."

Sanzen 'Yen' Nagi: "That's right—it was my tip. It's encouragent for Sensei. I'm not short on money; I'm short on excellent items to read. So please keep it up and create great works. The tips won't be small."

Kurosora Twilight: "Received! I'll work hard. I already have a new idea."

Sanzen 'Yen' Nagi: "Oh? A new idea? Can you tell ?"

Kurosora Twilight: "Of course. I'm going to write a magical-girl light novel—but not the usual kind. On transforming, she muscles up, grows taller, and has overwhelming strength…"

At that, Nagi practically squealed. That was her exact manga idea. Plot, though, she had none; when she'd posted drafts, people had slamd them. But with a professional light-novel author on board, maybe her work could rise to the next level?

They dove into plotting a magical-girl series. When the chat ended, Hayashi Maki's bank app pinged—another ¥10,000,000 tip.

When an ojou-sama acts, she acts lavishly.

He took a long breath, then exhaled slowly to calm down. Who wouldn't be hyped about money-from-the-sky?

If Kawasaki Saki—still sweating every yen—learned he'd pocketed ten million just for a few ssages, would she cry from envy?

Sanzen 'Yen' Nagi: "Thank you so much for your guidance. I'm drawing manga now—if you publish that magical-girl story, may I adapt it into a sa-title manga with you?"

Kurosora Twilight: "Absolutely! Nagi-san, you're too generous—no one could refuse. I'll send you the outline tomorrow. You think about the visuals, and let's create a magical-girl myth together!"

Sanzen 'Yen' Nagi: "Deal!"

Kurosora Twilight: "Also, could we et in person? So creative points are best discussed face-to-face."

Sanzen 'Yen' Nagi: "Of course. How about Sunday afternoon this week?"

Kurosora Twilight: "OK—settled!"

…

After the chat, Nagi rolled around on her bed, cheeks flushed with excitent. As an ojou-sama, the thing that thrilled her most was her own manga. What creator doesn't want their work recognized? She wanted to succeed on rit and create sothing famous—the sense of accomplishnt would be imnse.

She chose the weekend because she knew Kurosora Twilight-sensei was a student at her school; weekends were the only tis he'd be free. In high spirits, she told maid Maria as the latter ca to help her change.

Maria, a beauty in a maid outfit with brown hair and eyes, was startled:

"Eh—Milady is going out to et soone? And it's a man? Is that alright? Should I accompany you?"

Her eyes brimd with concern.

Nagi puffed her chest and tried to sound calm.

"What could go wrong? It's just a eting. I checked—he's a Hakuō Academy student like . And I already tipped him—what, is he going to kidnap ?"

"…Milady, that's not unheard of," Maria sighed, eyes pained.

Nagi's body trembled. True—there had been an incident. A "friend" from school invited her out and colluded with others to kidnap her for ransom. After that, school scared her; she stopped going out and beca a shut-in.

She inhaled deeply, then smiled with renewed confidence.

"It'll be fine. The editor says Kurosora Twilight is an easygoing boy. I want to try."

"If collaborating with him pushes my work into the lilight, that's a huge win."

"And I'm not a child. I can handle myself—you don't need to co, Maria."

"…As you wish, Milady." Maria said the words—but planned to secretly follow.

…

Hayashi Maki, anwhile, was pleasantly surprised. Getting to et an ojou-sama was a happy accident. If Nagi stayed holed up at ho, he'd have had no excuse to approach her.

This world wasn't simple—angels and demons existed, and Hayate the Combat Butler elents were woven in.

Above the power ceiling stood the Miko of Light, Saginomiya Isumi—and Gabriel's sister, the Archangel Zelel. In the finale of the original story, Isumi even released the gods of the Royal Garden, removing the royal family's power from the world. That implied a hidden force—the Royal Garden and Deities.

Which made Isumi his top target for a contract. And the best way to reach Isumi was through her best friend, Nagi. Isumi was always dropping by to hang out with Nagi. Win Nagi over, and Isumi would co on her own.

Give it ti and proximity, and bonds form—opening the door for him to make his move.

Thinking of Sunday, Hayashi Maki could hardly wait.
