CH. 32: Grimoires

'No. I don't want to waste my magic potential like this. I also need a trump card against other magicians. Protecting my women is absolute.'

(Un. You can wait for it to awaken naturally or buy a grimoire to learn it yourself.)

'Waiting… What kind of Grimoires do you have? Like the ones from Black clover?'

(I also have the ones from Mythologies. Take a look at this.)

[List of Grimoires]

Book of Enoch (Rank EX): Contains boundless wisdom and knowledge on Giants, Demons, Angels and Fallen Angels.

—Spellbook: Encompasses the knowledge to cast holy, divine, and, darkness magic spells.

Sworn Book of Honorius (Rank EX): Contains Honorius' unparalleled knowledge of all science.

—Summon: Summons a Demon from 72 Pillars of Solomon. The incantation requires an immense amount of mana.

—Contract: Holds the key to form a contract with any of Demons. 

(Price - 20000 KP)

Book of Moses (Rank A): A book...

I ignored the ones below A-Rank. These cool grimoires enticed me. But why was the infamous Solomon's grimoire… so cheap.

I lacked KP to buy one EX rank Grimoire. Unlike Solomon's grimoire 72 demons, Book of Enoch also had no limits on contracts it seems. I could amass an army of Mythical beings and conquer everything in my way. It sounded wonderful, but it would affect my growth in many ways.

(Relying on external devices halts the growth of the soul.)

'Then maybe Solomon is good to keep as a trump card.'

I scrolled through the list for some cheap Grimoire and found a masterpiece.

Hymn of Spirits (Rank A): A grimoire attuned to achieve true harmony with Nature and Spirits.

—Spellbook: Contains various magic spells of five natural elements.

—Wise Sage: Increases wisdom and intelligence in accordance with your understanding of this grimoire.

(Price 6000 KP)

And it was cheap as fuck.

(Humans can't usually read an original Grimoire, as they are written in the language of Gods. But my love is already someone who surpassed humanity.)

'Hooh. Buy me Solomon and this one. I want a demon underling.'

(Because of their moody nature, it is hard to form a pact with demons. However, my Asahi can do it.)

'Yep.'

A hefty weight dropped on my hands. The badass book with a pitch-black cover and 'Lesser key of Solomon' written in creepy red letters. The other one had a mild green cover with a tree drawn on it. It stayed true to its name.

Saya beside me rolled over and clung to my leg.

"Mommy…"

"No mommy here. Though I can become your father if you want~"

She opened her eyes and stared at me. I snuck the Grimoires inside the ring and stroked her cheeks.

"You woke up earlier than I thought."

She closed her eyes and her lips curled up. Her brain must be perceiving it as a dream. Very well, let's give her a memorable dream.

Pulling her cheeks with one hand, I moved the other one to lightly pinch her nipple.

"Mm~"

Her eyes suddenly opened. I formed a grin and squeezed her boobs even bigger than Saeko's.

"S-Stop."

"Why should I? You came and clung to me at night. What does it mean? Tell me."

She averted her gaze at my question. "I don't remember it… You must have brought me here. Yes, that's it!"

"Should I call Shiori? She was also her this morning."

She pushed my hand and got up. "Fine, I'll tell the truth. I came to invite you for dinner last night but you two were sleeping. I somehow passed out here."

Her answer sounded believable. She stayed calm at my harassment. Tsundere was no longer tsundere?

She got off the bed. But before she could go, I grabbed her hand.

"Whaa?!"

Ignoring her cute yelp, I pulled her over and pressed my lips on hers. Before I got deeper, she pushed me away with a flushed face.

"Why you—"

"It was compensation for making me horny. Also, you look cute in this dress."

She stayed frozen for several moments before she turned around and ran for the door.

*Ding!*

[Saya Takagi: Affection +3]

"Aa-kun, what was that?"

I turned around to find Shizuka pouting. Was she jealous?

"Do you like her?"

I nodded at her sharp question and moved closer to her.

"But I also like nee-san."

My cheeky answer made her smile widely. "I also like Aa-kun… as a family."

As a family, huh. That would be changing soon. I bet my genius ass on it!
