Contracts cannot be deliberately concealed; this is also one of the restrictions.
Therefore, Rosen clearly explained what the girl would gain and lose after signing the contract.
"If you sign a contract with me, you will gain the power to eliminate spirits, and you will continuously grow until one day, no spirit will be able to harm you. In your eyes, they will be as weak as ants."
"Then... what is the price?"
Upon hearing this, the girl was very tempted, but she was not blinded by the immense benefits before her eyes.
There's no such thing as a free lunch.
As is well known, free-to-play games are the most expensive.
"After signing the contract, you will no longer be a mortal, but my subordinate, unable to disobey or betray me."
"That means... freedom?"
The girl lowered her gaze.
And Rosen nodded slightly.
Power comes with a price; this is understandable and purely a matter of personal choice.
Some people will stop at nothing for power.
While others would rather die than accept charity.
Yotsuya Miko was clearly in a dilemma.
If it were other conditions, she might have impulsively agreed.
But the loss of freedom was described quite ambiguously.
"Don't rush to decide. Choices made under emotional influence are easily regretted afterward. I don't want my first subordinate to be sighing constantly."
Rosen said.
Upon hearing this, Yotsuya Miko looked at Rosen with some surprise.
"Um, I... I don't know what to do right now? So, could you give me one night? I'll think about it."
"You may."
After speaking, Rosen nodded.
Then he asked,
"Are you a Sobu High School student?"
"Yes, I just transferred here last month."
Rosen then asked about her class and found that Yotsuya Miko's classroom was located at opposite ends of the teaching building from his.
No wonder Rosen hadn't noticed Yotsuya Miko's appearance in the past month.
After all, with the girl's limited social circle—only having Yurikawa Hana as a friend—it was normal for him not to have seen her.
"In that case, if you make a decision, find me on the rooftop of the teaching building during tomorrow's lunch break."
"Huh? Is Senior also a Sobu High School student?"
"Yes, don't you feel I'm suddenly more down-to-earth?"
Rosen said with a smile.
"Oh, do you want some watermelon?"
He hadn't forgotten that he was carrying a heavy object.
The watermelon was large; if they didn't eat it today and only put half in the refrigerator, the taste would be affected.
If he were in China, Rosen wouldn't care, of course.
However, watermelon in Japan was exorbitantly expensive, so doing that would be a bit wasteful.
It was a good opportunity to get closer to the girl; since it was for his future subordinate, it wasn't a waste.
As for why he was so certain, the reason was simple.
Yotsuya Miko would not refuse to become transcendent. The spirits had already severely affected her daily life, and if this continued, how long she could live was a question.
One night.
No, perhaps the moment Yotsuya Miko was scared by a spirit again, she would no longer hesitate.
The two arrived at a stone table by the park.
Rosen casually conjured a fruit knife, much to the girl's shock.
"Is this magic?"
But Rosen was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and hadn't turned around; it was impossible.
"One of my abilities."
"If you become my subordinate, flying through the sky and burrowing into the earth will be effortless."
Rosen said with a smile, not explaining too much.
Appropriate displays of power are also a means of attraction.
Upon hearing this, Yotsuya Miko was instantly captivated, then silently took a bite of watermelon.
With one bite, the crimson juice overflowed.
"So, so delicious."
The sweet and delicious juice flowed between her lips and teeth, and a refreshing sensation instantly bloomed.
The gloom from being scared by the spirits earlier was also swept away.
"If Xiao Hua were here, she could eat half by herself."
Yurikawa Hana was her only friend.
One of the reasons she was still willing to go to school was because of Yurikawa Hana's presence.
Talking and chatting with her could dispel half of her gloom.
Rosen knew Yurikawa Hana.
Although she wasn't the protagonist, her presence was not at all low.
She and Yotsuya Miko both had a constitution that easily attracted spirits, but compared to Yotsuya Miko, who would instantly die upon contact, ordinary spirits would be burned to ashes by the rich life aura emanating from Yurikawa Hana if they got close.
Besides that, she also had a pair of very large breasts.
She was a good candidate to become a subordinate, Rosen thought.
After bringing Yotsuya Miko into the fold, making Yurikawa Hana the next target might be easier to succeed.
"Well then... Senior, thank you for today. See you tomorrow."
Yotsuya Miko bowed and then turned to leave in another direction.
Rosen also returned home, ran a bath, and then opened the chat group.
