Chapter 56: Adventure in a Boy’s Room56Please respect copyright.PENANAJnS2Ay9VDX
Saturday.56Please respect copyright.PENANAgaPzX9CZ3q
It was just past six in the morning. The first rays of dawn had only begun to spill across the rooftops of the quiet neighborhood, washing the city in faint gold. Birds were beginning to chirp softly in the distance, the breeze carried a faint chill, and the streets were still wrapped in the dreamy calm of early morning.56Please respect copyright.PENANA8lIRw1aQa2
Then—ding-dong!56Please respect copyright.PENANAk5S6Ppnr7D
A sharp, crisp doorbell shattered the peace.56Please respect copyright.PENANAMb2hnhEvWn
Kouya’s eyes snapped open. For a second, he wasn’t sure if he’d dreamed it. But the sound came again, ringing clearly through the thin apartment walls. It was sharp enough to feel like an alarm bell in the stillness of dawn.56Please respect copyright.PENANAOOVSNP8VQj
And, judging by the direction, it wasn’t his door—it was the one next door.56Please respect copyright.PENANAks0y8rDclg
He groaned. “Vigne?”56Please respect copyright.PENANAVRb7bZzrKb
The rhythm was too familiar. She always pressed the bell twice, paused, then once more—like a polite knock sequence. The last time she came over to check on the Scottish Fold cats, it had sounded exactly like this.56Please respect copyright.PENANALkksXU3dUX
But at this hour, there was no way Gabriel would be awake. The lazy angel didn’t even open her eyes before ten on weekends.56Please respect copyright.PENANAHJjc8ZCt7U
Sure enough, after two more rings, silence. Then, as expected, a few moments later—56Please respect copyright.PENANAnxK44DAtDo
Ding-dong. This time from his door.56Please respect copyright.PENANA3aR8HS9IcZ
Kouya sighed, dragging a hand through his messy hair. “It’s way too early for this…” He threw on a loose hoodie, slipped into his slippers, and shuffled toward the door.56Please respect copyright.PENANAUbVWQ0OoT3
When he opened it, the sight that greeted him made him blink twice.56Please respect copyright.PENANAcvqGyJaPHx
“Um, I rang Gabi’s bell a few times, but she doesn’t seem awake yet,” Vigne said softly, standing outside with an apologetic smile. Her long purple hair shimmered faintly under the morning light. “Would it be alright if we waited inside for a while? I didn’t want to disturb anyone else.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAUS6o4qL8oa
“Good morning, Kouya-kun,” another voice chimed sweetly. That calm, lilting tone could only belong to one person—Raphael, the silver-haired angel who wore the face of serenity but the heart of mischief.56Please respect copyright.PENANAStGtrv9tTt
And just when he thought it couldn’t get worse, a third voice joined in.56Please respect copyright.PENANAD6ZsRpa4Ak
“Hmph! What are you looking at?” the red-haired demon puffed up proudly. “Raphael begged me yesterday, so I, the Great Satania, decided to accompany her! You should be grateful for my divine generosity!”56Please respect copyright.PENANAvo2nBcnnd3
Kouya froze, staring blankly at the three of them.56Please respect copyright.PENANAvFQncx1gUz
Are you kidding me?! You’re all here?!56Please respect copyright.PENANAHZcScvkQPd
You said eight o’clock at the amusement park! It’s barely six! What kind of maniacs wake up this early on a Saturday?!56Please respect copyright.PENANADa6m8diEfJ
Vigne tilted her head, smiling like a teacher reminding a lazy student. “Early mornings are good for you, you know. Oversleeping ruins your energy for the day.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAXvSbcbhB77
“Yeah, yeah,” Kouya muttered, stepping aside and gesturing for them to enter. “Come in.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAwJtQBMLleP
“Thank you, Kouya-kun.” Vigne’s politeness was flawless as always.56Please respect copyright.PENANAL19HSqbl1H
“Eh?” Satania suddenly looked down at the entryway. “There’s a slipper missing.”56Please respect copyright.PENANA7pb1gJo0si
“I live alone,” Kouya said flatly. “Just come in barefoot.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAZsWbJ9T24j
“Oh, okay.” Satania obediently started to step in—but Raphael, of course, couldn’t resist.56Please respect copyright.PENANAp8lEV1Zstq
“I’ve heard that boys’ rooms are full of mysterious and scary things,” she said innocently, eyes glinting. “If you walk in barefoot... you might get pregnant.”56Please respect copyright.PENANA6CLJM893kY
“Pff—!”56Please respect copyright.PENANA5Dw4uH5OD4
Kouya’s jaw dropped. What kind of logic even is that?!56Please respect copyright.PENANAaKmq7GAUVu
“W-Wait, seriously?!” Satania gasped, jumping back. “That can happen?!”56Please respect copyright.PENANAD9HP4a74Ry
“Raphael, don’t say strange things.” Vigne sighed, handing Satania her own slippers. “And Satania, no, that’s not possible.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAJro6Eqz18b
“But Vigne, you’ll get pregnant too!” Satania cried dramatically.56Please respect copyright.PENANAi2ejn7CIQA
Pregnant, my ass!56Please respect copyright.PENANA2MDdsbNZoM
Kouya pressed a hand over his face. How did this become my morning? “Just... come in already.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAgEkdtwBANY
The three of them entered, their footsteps soft against the floorboards. Satania immediately began snooping around like a detective, poking at bookshelves and peeking into corners.56Please respect copyright.PENANAIawHZIEXW5
“Hmph,” she said with a smug grin. “I expected a boy’s room to be filthy and chaotic, but this is actually... decent. Of course, it’s nowhere near as magnificent as my royal quarters, but I’ll allow it.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAiWQZJtfydf
“Maybe,” Raphael said smoothly, tapping her chin, “Kouya-kun cleaned up last night. You know, hiding all the embarrassing things.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAuHI0mZdtiD
Satania blinked. “Embarrassing things?”56Please respect copyright.PENANAB7E4oaYqle
Raphael smiled sweetly, raising a finger to her lips. “Like... dirty magazines, or adult toys~.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAlRG0UL6qDz
“D-Dirty magazines?!” Satania’s eyes went wide as her face turned scarlet. “A-Adult toys?! Those exist?!”56Please respect copyright.PENANA03QaQO6sfq
“Raphael!” Vigne scolded, cheeks flushed pink. “Stop saying those things! Kouya-kun isn… isn’t like that!”56Please respect copyright.PENANAcT9lqfkQo9
That pause—why the hell was there a pause?!56Please respect copyright.PENANAhqQkJ9enP8
Even you doubt me, don’t you?!56Please respect copyright.PENANAnuoiFtYFgq
Fine! Maybe I do have a secret collection... but it’s not what you think! It’s art! Refined culture! Historical preservation of the most forbidden anime scenes known to mankind!56Please respect copyright.PENANAi3KktQvdvt
You girls have no idea the danger you’ve stepped into. This is the lair of the former Demon King! According to every dark anime trope, this should end with me locking you all inside for a lesson in corruption!56Please respect copyright.PENANAJmbBXmPHMK
“Not necessarily,” Raphael interrupted calmly. “At school, I’ve received quite a few love letters from boys.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAXtlocknD2l
“Good for you,” Kouya muttered.56Please respect copyright.PENANA5eRCu0bUPR
“Some spray perfume on them. Others include rose petals,” she continued with an amused smile.56Please respect copyright.PENANAmGvMKv1yVl
Corny, but harmless.56Please respect copyright.PENANAvEU0OH45qN
“And some even leave snacks in my desk.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAWl0dyUI881
That’s just biology, Kouya thought. Sharing food’s a basic animal instinct.56Please respect copyright.PENANAl6QBY6ZZIA
“But last week,” Raphael added with perfect calm, “someone left me a black pair of panties.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAAzoRbpti7f
“WHAT?!” Kouya sputtered. “That’s not affection—that’s a felony!”56Please respect copyright.PENANA3hlOgCnhZM
Raphael smiled sweetly. “I had a pretty good idea who did it, too.”56Please respect copyright.PENANA5VpgEi4JNh
No. No way.56Please respect copyright.PENANAiMzQlcJPbp
“You didn’t...” he said cautiously.56Please respect copyright.PENANATOC4gjvnZZ
“Oh, but I did.” Her smile widened. “I gave him a thank-you gift. He’s still recovering.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAzVKur4PL3O
Kouya groaned. “You did turn him into a pig, didn’t you?”56Please respect copyright.PENANAO1jB58xzAW
“Mm-hmm~” Raphael hummed happily. “He oinked so realistically, too.”56Please respect copyright.PENANABXdjB17gol
Holy hell. That explains why that idiot didn’t show up for class Tuesday.56Please respect copyright.PENANAjJm6GAnV0e
“But,” she continued in a lower, teasing tone, “I really liked the style of that underwear. So I ordered another pair online.”56Please respect copyright.PENANA6mLBW9SfsS
“Raphael!” Vigne exclaimed, face bright red. “Don’t—”56Please respect copyright.PENANAlTOG6kChoJ
Raphael ignored her. “Kouya-kun... want to see?”56Please respect copyright.PENANArmhPxN8QwT
She wasn’t wearing her uniform today. Instead, a white blouse tucked neatly into a red-and-black pleated skirt. Her black stockings climbed just above her knees, leaving a slim, glowing band of bare skin between the two—a mesmerizing strip of light that could make anyone’s pulse skip.56Please respect copyright.PENANAP0h7jCcpnA
As she slowly lifted her skirt, that forbidden strip of skin expanded, smooth and flawless.56Please respect copyright.PENANAmOCbKpVaYp
Vigne froze, mouth open. Satania’s brain short-circuited completely, her face going from red to crimson.56Please respect copyright.PENANAsRxMwEClHN
Kouya squinted, crossing his arms. “Go ahead.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAGpt1LXeHSF
They locked eyes—Raphael’s playful smirk against his deadpan stare.56Please respect copyright.PENANAzbrPMJrB7D
Three seconds.56Please respect copyright.PENANAekDBX3yBVg
Five.56Please respect copyright.PENANAz4CWbo04EX
By the seventh, Raphael’s face was bright red. She dropped her skirt in defeat, coughing awkwardly. “...You really are impossible.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAGwRZlw9R7R
Kouya smirked. “Round one goes to me.”56Please respect copyright.PENANAWTB128Cw1a
