Having found a demon, I've decided to raise her.

It seems that Miss Devil likes sweet things. Chen Ming thought of Lucifer, who used to eat cola chicken all the time. She liked sweet foods.

He smiled and said—

"You're easy to take care of; red wine is much more expensive than cola."

Lucifer remained noncommittal; the monetary value of humans meant nothing to her. Good food was good food, and delicious food was delicious food.

The idea that something is delicious just because it's expensive is simply not true.

I won't be taken advantage of.

Seeing how happily she was drinking, Chen Ming said—

"Would you like some stir-fried sausage to go with your drinks? No, I should say, some Coke?"

"I've already eaten, so I don't need anything."

Although Lucifer said that, he was actually a bit addicted to drinking Coke right after eating.

Chen Ming said—

"It's really amazing when you think about it. I never believed in demons or sword immortals before, but now I've encountered them one after another."

If he were to tell others what had happened these past few days, how many people would believe him? Well, probably only his sister would believe him unconditionally.

Chen Ming looked at the black box that the Sword Fairy had placed to the side and said with a smile—

"You don't know, Dongyi claims to be a sword immortal, but I reckon she's the kind of person who's extremely useless. She said she basically failed all her courses and only ran away from the 'black room' to avoid punishment. I even wanted her to take me flying on her sword, but she doesn't know how at all."

Lucifer listened to his words, his red eyes looking over, and asked—

"Want to fly on a sword? Why?"

"Because it's cool, um...actually, I wanted to try the feeling of flying. You know, I've never even been on a plane before. It's all because the high-speed rail is so convenient now."

It's convenient, otherwise his classmate said that a direct flight from the south to the north would cost over a thousand yuan. Taking a ride would only cost three or four hundred yuan, although it's a bit slower.

Lucifer thought for a moment and said—

"If you want to experience flying, I can take you flying."

"what?"

Chen Ming blinked and said—

"Lucifer, can you fly too?"

"Of course."

"I've never seen it before."

"Why would you fly around all the time? Besides, it's very conspicuous, and you don't recover much strength that way, so I'm reluctant to use it."

"I see. Then forget it. Lucifer needs to use his powers to heal his injuries, right? I don't want to burden you."

Chen Ming shook his head. He hoped Lucifer would get better, and that he would put his own little wish aside for the time being.

Lucifer, however, said—

"It's alright. There's no rush to heal your injuries. They won't heal immediately anyway. Taking you out for a stroll won't be difficult."

She then took his hand and led him outside.

He repeatedly confirmed, saying—

"Are you really alright?"

"I told you I'm fine."

Lucifer thought he could be quite long-winded at times, a little bit nagging.

The two arrived at the rooftop.

The night breeze gently caressed her white hair, and her red eyes shone even in the darkness.

Chen Ming looked up at the bright moon in the sky, its silvery light shining on Lucifer. As she turned around, even her plaid pajamas couldn't conceal her ethereal beauty.

He looked at her damp hair and said—

"I'll take Dongyi to buy some clothes tomorrow, and I'll also buy a hairdryer while I'm at it; I've been forgetting about it."

He himself doesn't use a hairdryer. His hair isn't very long, so he just lets it air dry. But people like Lucifer with shoulder-length hair and Dong Yi with long hair need to use a hairdryer to dry them.

I've heard that if a girl goes to sleep with her hair still wet, she'll have a terrible headache the next day.

Lucifer nodded and said—

"Actually, you can just wear mine. I'll tell her and she'll agree."

"She's so afraid of you, isn't it a threat if you make demands of her?"

"It's just a threat; we won't actually do anything."

"Let's forget it. Don't bully people too much. Besides, the clothes I bought for you still look best on you."

Chen Ming scratched his head.

Lucifer lowered his eyelids slightly, smiled, and said—

"Okay, got it."

She told Chen Ming to stay away.

Then, beneath her feet, shadows began to spread, writhing like churning mud.

This time, Chen Ming could see it. Looking at this strange thing, he simply asked—

"what is this?"

"A type of energy that is quite useful. It can influence various energies and spirits."

Lucifer gave a very ordinary answer.

Then the shadows gathered behind her, emanating a purplish-black light.

Wow.

Chen Ming watched as black wings unfurled from Lucifer's back, creating a gust of wind. He raised his hand to shield himself and waited for the wind to dissipate.

He looked at Lucifer, who had six wings on his back, surrounded by a purplish-black halo, and whose red eyes seemed to be tinged with an eerie color.

She looked at Chen Ming, who was somewhat dazed, tilted her head, and said—

"What's wrong? Were you scared? It's okay..."

"No, it's not..."

Chen Ming waved his hand and said—

"I was just a little engrossed in watching it."

"..."

Lucifer looked at him for a long time, then smiled helplessly and said—

"let's go."

Chapter 28 was so exciting!

Lucifer didn't immediately take Chen Ming flying. She glanced at Chen Ming, considered for a moment, and then drew a few patterns on her palm.

Chen Ming noticed a faint, mysterious light emanating from her body and asked—

"What's wrong? What are you doing?"

"We're making some preparations because you're just an ordinary person, so you still need to take precautions. It's also very cold up there, so you should find shelter from the wind."

Lucifer looked at him and continued—

"In your words, it's like applying a few buffs."

"buff?"

It seems that she learned some vocabulary by looking at his collection, and she is slowly becoming more approachable.

After she was ready, she walked behind him, gently wrapped her arms around his waist, and pressed herself against his back.

He felt the soft warmth behind him, and a slight itch stirred within him. He said—

"Aren't we standing a little too close?"

"This saves more energy."

Lucifer sensed his body was tense, as if he were very nervous. She blinked and said—

"Don't worry, it's very safe."

"No, that's not it... Never mind, it's nothing."

Chen Ming felt the softness of Lucifer's body and blushed slightly. Was this considered taking advantage of him? An honest person should have given him a heads-up.

But he was a lecherous old man, so he chose to remain silent.

He felt somewhat ashamed.

I'm sorry, I'm not as upright as I thought, because she really is too big and too soft.

Lucifer reminded him—

"Then I'll begin."

Her six black wings unfolded on her back and flapped gently. Chen Ming saw the complex characters beneath their feet flash by, and then they slowly floated into the air.

"Wow……"

I was still a little scared because I couldn't touch the ground. I watched the rooftop get further and further away from me, and then slowly become a dot in my field of vision.

High in the sky, two figures overlapped. Lucifer's six wings obscured the moon, and his red eyes emitted a ghostly light.

She hugged Chen Ming's waist, brought her mouth close to his ear, and said—

"how do you feel?"

"Hmm... how should I put it..."

Chen Ming looked down. It wasn't too late yet. Vehicles were driving on the road, and the lights flowed by like a river of stars.
