Chapter 126: Becoming Miss Makima's Dog

**Chapter 126: Becoming Miss Makima's Dog

From then on, Power's nickname, the "Cushion Demon," spread among manga fans.

Compared to *Edge Runner*, *Chainsaw Man* might indeed have some less innovative aspects. However, unlike the consistently dark and serious tone of *Edge Runner*, *Chainsaw Man* features a more interesting and absurd storyline with frequently hilarious scenes.

For example, the recent storyline involving Power as the "Cushion Demon" has been incredibly amusing and funny. This has led some fans to think that this difference is due to the length of the manga.

*Edge Runner* is a shorter series, so its plot is more compact, focusing mainly on advancing the story. This has limited the expression of Lin Qing Shan's more eccentric and playful side. On the other hand, *Chainsaw Man* finally allows for the showcase of this absurd and entertaining aspect.

Power's recent "Cushion Demon" storyline has indeed made fans laugh out loud. However, for Denji, the protagonist, it was far from enjoyable.

In the following days, Denji became like a soulless zombie, going through the motions of eating, sleeping, and patrolling in a daze, almost like a vegetative state.

While Denji and Makima were handling the administrative tasks of the Devil Hunters, Makima noticed Denji's distraction. She thought it was due to the tedious paperwork and said, "A pile of documents is annoying, right? It feels like even after defeating the Bat Devil, you've done something wrong..."

But Denji remained silent and unresponsive.

Makima then asked, "Denji, do you have something on your mind?"

"I... I..." Denji replied absently. "I've finally achieved a long-pursued goal."

"But... now that it's achieved, it doesn't seem that important."

It was clear that Power's role as the "Cushion Demon" had left a significant psychological impact on Denji, leading to a sense of disillusionment.

Denji continued, "Is it... that pursuing a goal and achieving it is less satisfying than the pursuit itself?"

"It's really terrible, isn't it?"

Denji was troubled by the fact that achieving his dream did not bring the joy he had expected, making the pursuit of the dream more enjoyable.

Makima was puzzled, "I still don't understand what Denji is saying."

"Touching a woman's breast for the first time, but finding nothing special..."

Denji was more direct this time.

At that moment, Makima moved closer to Denji and said with a smile, "Denji, I think you can only truly appreciate these things when you understand the other person."

"Understanding someone's inner feelings is difficult..."

"So start by observing their hands closely..."

"The length of their fingers..."

"Or the temperature of their palm, whether it's cold or warm?"

She gently took Denji's hand, then suddenly clasped it tightly. Next, she placed Denji's hand on her own ear.

"And the shape of the ear?"

"Has anyone ever bitten your fingers?"

Makima asked suddenly.

Her seductive manner made Denji's heart race.

"Bite..." Denji blushed as well.

"Remember it, so even if you can't see it, you will know from the intensity of the bite that it was me who bit you."

Makima bit Denji's thumb as she spoke.

"I... I remember."

Denji said, blushing deeply. However, Makima then placed Denji's hand on her chest!

Denji took a long time to react and then collapsed to the ground with a scream! This was entirely different from the incident with Power. Denji looked at his hand with disbelief.

At this moment, Makima, crouching in front of Denji in a kissing pose, did not kiss him but said softly, "I have a favor to ask of you, Denji. Can you help me?"

"I want you to defeat the Gun Devil..."

"The Gun Devil is a powerful demon that appeared in the United States 13 years ago, and it is the target of all Devil Hunters."

"But I believe only you can defeat it. You are different from other Devil Hunters."

"You are unique."

Makima looked at Denji and concluded, "If you manage to kill the Gun Devil..."

"I will grant you one request, anything you want."

Denji, under such a promise, blushed uncontrollably.

...

Makima's charm is such that, even without explicit scenes, she leaves much to the imagination. She also mentioned a powerful demon—the Gun Devil.

As previously discussed in conversations between Makima and Aki Hayakawa, a demon's power is entirely dependent on the fear humans have of its concept. For example, a Coffee Devil would be weak because coffee is not feared, except by those with caffeine allergies.

In contrast, the Gun Devil is powerful because firearms are universally feared due to their danger.

No matter one's status or wealth, a single bullet can be fatal. The fear of firearms is immense, making the Gun Devil extremely powerful.

Denji, without hesitation, accepted the task, ready to fulfill any request from Makima.

What remains most fascinating is Makima's charm. After reading this section, Gu Qianli felt her face redden, wondering, "Could Qing Shan also be thinking of such things?"

She was not disturbed by Lin Qing Shan's fantasies about her, as she had them too.

Such matters depend on mutual attractiveness and feelings. If the other person is unattractive and there is no emotional foundation, it can seem as repulsive as a goblin's advances.

However, Lin Qing Shan was handsome, and recently he seemed even more attractive, with a gaze and smile that conveyed a sense of elegance and nobility.

Gu Qianli thought it was just a matter of personal perception, not realizing that Lin Qing Shan had drawn several charm-enhancing abilities in a lottery, significantly boosting his appeal.

In fact, he had become almost like a charm demon. Not only Gu Qianli but other women might also find it hard to resist his advances.

Unfortunately, Lin Qing Shan had no worldly desires.
