Lord Summoner's Freedom Philosophy: Grimoire of Love

(Last night... I turned the television off with my thoughts, or not...?) (Lyan)

Lyan pondered, trying to recall whether he turned the grimoire's space television off or not. But nothing entered his mind.

(Hey, hey~ Master~ Seems like you're having lots of fun these days~) (Lilith)

Lilith's teasing voice felt playful and cold at the same time, making Lyan difficult to discern what her true intentions are.

"I-Is that so?" (Lyan)

(Yes~ Especially the part where that so-called 'Summoner's Wife' of yours went 'Ahhhhhh~', that looks like you're having so much fun, isn't it master~) (Lilith)

Lilith imitated Belle's moan, making Lyan shudder.

(I definitely didn't turn that damned television off...) (Lyan)

"So you were watching all along..." (Lyan)

(But wait. It's not like I'm doing something wrong. I was just going along with my life, and it's a necessary thing for me to get stronger as well, so there's nothing wrong with it right? It's not like I force her and rape her or something anyway) (Lyan)

As Lyan justified his cause inside his mind, the words of threat finally appeared.

(You know~ You're lucky that I'm the only one who saw it~ If Arturia or Griselda saw that scene, Ooh, Master. Their iron fist would have flown to you in full throttle~) (Lilith)

Lyan remembered the time Arturia punched him and made him knocked out with just a single powerful punch. But to be honest, he felt like he just died again at that moment.

(Not to mention that the other girls might not like that scene as well, you're so careless, master~ You're lucky they are still too focused on playing with the items inside your room) (Lilith)

"W-What do you want, Lilith?" Lyan goes straight to the point.

(Hehehe~ I love how the way you catch my intentions so quick. You just need to do me too next time. It's a good offer for you too, isn't it~, To be honest, I'm surprised that you didn't devour all the three of them quicker, master~ You should just be a beast! A beast! Become a real incubus!!) (Lilith)

Lilith's cheerful voice sounded inside Lyan's mind, but her last words triggered something inside him. With a melancholic voice, Lyan said to Lilith.

"I'm sad. Even though you should've been the one who understands me the most amongst anyone in this world. Just like how I should be the one who understands you the most..." said Lyan to the demonic spirit inside him.

(*Sigh!* So it's true. You really became a full-fledged incubus when you're in the demon world... Then I assume the demon world we have in mind is the same world, huh... The gods really have a unique idea, giving you as my master) (Lilith)

Lilith's cheerful voice disappeared. Lyan could imagine the strained smile on her face.

(That world is not soft, especially for succubuses and incubuses. To defeat the evil god that the god's voice mentioned, unimaginable effort and countless sacrifices must have been made) (Lilith)

"...." Lyan replied with silence.

(I have doubts when you said you were an incubus. I definitely thought you were lying. That time when that black-haired butler girl talk about the prostitutes, you remembered about the tribe, didn't you?) (Lilith)

"You're right," (Lyan)

(*Sigh!!*)

Lilith let out a heavier sigh.

(To think that I would be reminded about the past and having a summoner that was my brethren... Who would have ever thought... Sorry for my words before, master. I know it's a hurtful insult for our brethren, but I just need to be sure...) (Lilith)

"It's fine. It's understandable for a succubus to doubt my words about being a former incubus. About your threat to me, do you really want to do it? Or do you change your mind about that matter as well?" (Lyan)

(No. I need to do it) (Lilith)

This time, Lilith said her will without using her playful tone.

"So you want to return to life that desperately, huh... I understand..." (Lyan)

(Yes, I do. Could you guess what kind of past I have, master? You've seen a glimpse of my past, after all) (Lilith)

"Hm..." Lyan closed his eyes as he recalled.

Lilith's moment of death.

The moment of death of the eight spirits is something that Lyan won't be able to forget since they left a huge impression on his mind.

At Lilith's moment of death, her eyes seem to lose all hope. A flame of anger is burning inside her eyes, but since she's already on the brink of death, only hopelessness is born from those anger.

Lyan remembered that her last moment is inside a cramped room. It looks like a room of a tower. He remembered there is something that caught his attention back then when he first got shown the scene by the summoning grimoire.

A book. A book of a certain human kingdom, not the book of the kingdoms of ancient age. It's something that wouldn't exist inside the demon world.

"You left the demon world to this world..." (Lyan)

Lyan recalled the clothes she was wearing.

"Not only that, you're wearing a human attire, not a succubus's attire. You blend in with the humans and live with them... And you got betrayed..." (Lyan)

Inside the grimoire's space, Lilith flinched at Lyan's guess.

"Am I right...?" (Lyan)

(Hehehe~ I'll only tell you after we sleep together! Sorry, master~) (Lilith)

Lilith's cheerful and playful voice returned.

"Then what's even the point of me guessing... What are the others doing? They seem to be so absorbed in my room," (Lyan)

(Griselda and Eira are having matches in your Zbox, Azelia is playing harvest sun in your portable Playxstation, Sylphia is reading the books on your bookshelves together with Hestia, Arturia is watching fighting animes, while Cynthia and I are in the middle of hunting for your holy scriptures. We've already found some, by the way) (Lilith)

"You guys understand how to use those things? Do I have the manual somewhere?" (Lyan)

(At the time we touched the electronics, the information about how to use them immediately filled our minds. The air conditioner is one of the best innovations in your world, master! Damn, it's so comfortable inside~) (Lilith)

"Getting sluggish because of the air conditioner... What a modern symptoms you spirits are having... By the way, Lilith," (Lyan)

(What is it, master~) (Lilith)

"About that holy scriptures, are they my prized collections...?" (Lyan)

(Fufufu! I love how you catch on so quickly, master~ Yup, it's your porn magazines! To think that you have such a wide tastes~) (Lilith)

"NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" (Lyan)

**************************************************

After getting teased by Lilith to the brink of death socially, Lyan returned to the courtesans' house. He didn't enter from the main door or the back door, since he know where his room was and where Belle is sleeping at, using wind magic, he jumped into his room and entered from the window.

When he entered the room, he saw Belle that is still sleeping while hugging the Papilio Slime beside her. The other thing he understands is that the summoned monster that has a mother is capable of getting summoned to a place near the mother even if the mother is far away from the summoner.

"She's still sleeping like a log, huh..." (Lyan)

*Creak!*

The door towards the room opened, revealing Xena in her courtesan attire. Folding her arms, she

"You're here. When I entered the room before, you're not here, where did you go?" (Xena)

"Ah... I'm training outside," (Lyan)

"Where did you enter the room from," (Xena)

"The window," Lyan points at the window.

"The window!? This is the highest floor, you know!? Well, it's you, so I guess it's not that surprising, huh..." Xena shrugged.

"I thought you ran..." Xena lowered her head.

"Ran?" (Lyan)

"Yeah. I thought you ran after taking advantage of Belle's feelings. I know that we decided that it's fine even if you run, but I was still scared. If Belle wakes up and saw that you've gone if you decided to reject us because you know about our debt... I'm afraid that it will break her heart..." (Xena)

"But when I peek into the room to check, you're not there. I searched all over the place and you're not there. I was sure you've run, and I'm on the brink of hating you," Xena slowly approached Lyan and put her forehead on his chest.

"I entered this room again hoping that you miraculously appeared, and you did... Just like the time when we were surrounded by the goblins... Just like the time Alina and I were abducted in the goblins' lair... You always miraculously appear... Thank you..." Xena hugged Lyan tightly as she cried.

"Even if you say so, it was all just coincidence. There's no need for you to thank me, no?" Lyan slowly strokes Xena's head.

Feeling the warmth that she had been yearning for, warmth enveloped Xena's heart making her smile from ear to ear.

Xena shakes her head.

"No. For you, it's just a coincidence, but for us, it will still be a miracle. And Lyan..." Xena sniffed the obscene smell of the room, and take a peek at the wet sheets of the bed. The scene made her whole body feel hot, and since she got raped by the goblins, she wants her body to be dyed by the color of her beloved.

"You accepted us... Right?" (Xena)
