My wife believes me; how could I be a cuckold?

It just goes to show that succubi and humans have different values, even though Lilith is an inexperienced, low-level succubus.

Anyway, he's not going to pay any more attention to Lilith.

Seeing his evasive attitude, Lilith became even more emboldened, a wicked smile on her face as she prepared to say something more.

However, Makoto Asano reacted faster, speaking before she could say anything: "If you keep spouting nonsense, you won't get your food rations for today."

With just one sentence, he had her completely under his control.

She quickly covered her mouth, afraid that she would make a sound.

She had no choice; it was a matter of life and death.

Asano Makoto ignored her and got up to wash and tidy himself up.

Today is Tuesday, the day I had arranged with Eriko Miyajima to clean the house.

Moreover, he also wanted to take this opportunity to see how Eriko Miyajima would react after seeing him, following yesterday's dream.

However, Makoto Asano actually had a general idea of ​​what was going on, because when he woke up this morning, he opened the system and clicked on Eriko Miyajima's information panel to see what he had gained last night.

Then he was pleasantly surprised to find that Eriko Miyajima's favorability rating had finally broken through the 80 mark, increasing by 5 points to 81.

Her moral depravity score increased even more, jumping from 57 to 85.

It even caused her moral depravity value to exceed her favorability value!

It's worth noting that the last time Eriko Miyajima's moral character spiked this much was when Makoto Asano was pulled into a dream by the side effects of a nightmare skill, and then stood there unable to move, only to be kissed by Eriko Miyajima for an entire night.

However, last time Eriko Miyajima's moral depravity only increased by 20 points, but this time it increased by a full 28 points!

Clearly, even though it happened in a dream, accepting Makoto Asano's confession and giving him her whole heart had an enormous impact on Eriko Miyajima.

Makoto Asano couldn't say exactly how much of a role Lilith played in this, but she certainly had some effect.

Therefore, his opinion of Lilith improved slightly.

At least he won't be as heartbroken as he was yesterday when feeding Lilith love points in the future.

However, one thing made him feel a little depressed.

That is, although he successfully won over Eriko Miyajima this time, it didn't count as completing the mission because it happened in a dream.

This made him feel somewhat regretful.

However, he quickly put those feelings behind him.

Because he knew very well that the time for this task to be completed was not far off.

Chapter 106 Eriko is sick? (2/2)

After getting up, Makoto Asano tidied himself up a bit to make sure he didn't look too sloppy.

After all, Eriko Miyajima would be arriving soon, and he didn't want this incident to negatively impact her impression of him.

That was what Makoto Asano originally thought.

However, he waited until 10:30 a.m. but Eriko Miyajima did not knock on the door.

The previously agreed cleaning time was 9:00 AM.

In fact, from the very beginning when he asked Eriko Miyajima to be his personal housekeeper to clean his house, the agreed time between the two was 9 a.m., and it has remained unchanged ever since.

Has Eriko forgotten the time...?

Makoto Asano naturally thought of this possibility.

After all, even now, Eriko Miyajima has only come to clean once, on Tuesday of the first week, and missed the subsequent visits for various reasons.

It's fair to say that he and Eriko Miyajima haven't mentioned cleaning for almost two weeks now.

Although he and Eriko Miyajima had arranged for her to come and help with the cleaning today when they were about to go home after lunch last weekend, neither of them mentioned the cleaning time at the time.

So even if Eriko Miyajima is a very meticulous girl who rarely forgets things, it's not impossible that she might forget the time they agreed on because it hasn't been mentioned for a long time.

While the probability is not very high, it is by no means zero.

Of course, it's also possible that she's simply too ashamed to come today because of last night's dream.

Thinking of this, Makoto Asano couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

That won't do. He just used up his last dream demon experience card on Eriko last night. It would be a huge loss if he didn't contact her now, and he wouldn't be able to verify Lilith's abilities.

Moreover, even if it weren't for the fact that he was heartbroken over that precious prop, Makoto Asano would have no choice but to meet Eriko Miyajima at this time.

He was worried that Eriko Miyajima might once again want to distance herself from him because of this incident.

After all, what he did in the dream this time was quite special, and the impact on Eriko Miyajima was extremely strong.

What if Eriko Miyajima can't handle such a shock and decides to cut off all contact with him completely?

Therefore, Makoto Asano knew very well that he should contact Eriko Miyajima as soon as possible.

In this way, at least he can find a way to correct the situation as soon as the other party shows such signs, and will not be in a situation like before where he was alienated by the other party without knowing anything.

But whatever the reason, what Makoto Asano wants to do will not change.

That is to invite Eriko Miyajima to my home, observe her reaction, and then decide what to do next based on what I observe.

Thinking of this, Makoto Asano took out his phone and sent a message to Eriko Miyajima.

However, the message seemed to sink without a trace, and no response was received even after waiting for a long time.

This shouldn't be the case...

Asano Makoto felt a little strange.

Eriko Miyajima is a housewife, so she usually has a lot of free time.

In the past, when Makoto Asano sent her messages, she usually replied very quickly.

Unexpectedly, this time she not only didn't reply, but she didn't even look at his message.

Perhaps you didn't see it?

With that in mind, Makoto Asano decided to call Eriko Miyajima.

Soon, the phone rang.

However, after a full minute of waiting, Makoto Asano was met with an unanswered message.

Asano Makoto refused to believe it and immediately attacked again.

Again, no one answered the phone.

Makoto Asano hesitated for a moment, then decided to fight one last time.

If Eriko Miyajima doesn't answer this time either, then he'll just go to her house to check.

He was worried that something might have happened to Eriko Miyajima at home.

In any case, this situation is too strange.

Soon, the ringtone sounded, and another long wait ensued.

Just as Makoto Asano thought that Eriko Miyajima wouldn't answer this time either, and was about to hang up and go next door to check, a call was suddenly answered on the other end of the line.

"Eriko, good morning! Why are you only now—"

The moment the call was answered, Makoto Asano, who had been waiting impatiently, greeted the caller immediately.

However, he stopped halfway through his sentence.

He suddenly heard several rapid coughs coming from the other end of the phone.

Noticing this, Makoto Asano quickly asked, "Eriko, what's wrong? I think I heard you coughing. Are you sick?"

"Cough, Asano-kun, I... cough cough, I'm fine."

Eriko Miyajima quickly responded to Makoto Asano's question.

However, contrary to her stated answer, she didn't seem to be in any way at all like something was wrong.

A muffled nasal tone, a low voice, and bursts of coughing that seemed to be trying to be suppressed but were completely unstoppable.

No matter how you look at it, Eriko Miyajima looks sick, which makes Makoto Asano a little worried about her health.

At this moment, Eriko Miyajima continued on the other end of the phone, "Asano, kun... cough, do you want me to... clean? I'm sorry, I accidentally... cough cough, I accidentally overslept today, I'll be right there..."

She seemed to be trying to hide the fact that she was sick, her tone becoming slightly more upbeat, no longer as subdued as before, but the constant coughing in her voice betrayed her.

Upon hearing these words, Makoto Asano felt a strange sensation, as if his heart was being clenched.

He couldn't help but frown and hurriedly tried to dissuade her, saying, "No! Eriko, you don't need to worry about me. Just lie there and I'll be right there."

"Asano-kun! I really... cough cough cough."

Upon hearing this, Eriko Miyajima became somewhat anxious, even a little agitated, as she seemed reluctant to cause trouble for Makoto Asano.

However, her current physical condition did not allow her to have any major emotional fluctuations, so she started coughing violently before she could say more than a few words.

The sound of his painful cough made Asano Makoto feel a pang of heartache.

"Eriko! Don't get up or speak! Lie down properly!"

After shouting that into the phone in a somewhat stern tone, he ran straight to the next room.

He didn't knock or call Eriko Miyajima to open the door; instead, he simply took out his key and opened the door.

As the original owner of the apartment, he naturally had the key to it.

After entering the house, he didn't change his shoes. Instead, he took them off and walked barefoot to the guest bedroom, then suddenly pushed open the door.

Author's Note: There will be three more chapters today, but I need to go to sleep now. I'm too tired after staying up all night. I'll update again after I wake up (kneeling).

Chapter 107 Eriko Miyajima's Explanation (1/3)

Upon seeing Makoto Asano enter through the door, Eriko Miyajima's already somewhat confused mind, already clouded by a fever, became even more muddled.

She couldn't understand why Asano Makoto would appear here when she hadn't opened the door.

However, seeing the anxious and somewhat distorted expression on Asano Makoto's face, she couldn't help but feel a little pleased.

"Asano...kun, cough...how come...cough cough, how come you're here?"
