EP.312 Tairat’s Retainer, Becoming My Family

I don’t know why Adeline suddenly called out Rosario in pain.

As I comforted her, it could have been a misunderstanding, or it could have been real.

But it didn’t matter.

I saw the situation as an opportunity to sway Adeline’s heart, and I succeeded by taking advantage of it.

By planting negative feelings toward Rosario, I nurtured a deep admiration for me.

The proof is Adeline’s transformation.

She probably doesn’t even realize that her irises have turned completely purple, or that her pupils are slit vertically like a cat’s.

Her pale skin, sharp nails, and the glowing dark red Demon Realm.

Even the aura she emits is purple, completely harmonized with my magic.

These physical changes in Adeline were a sign of her corruption.

But one thing remained unchanged.

It was Adeline’s hair.

Still golden, as if it were the final arrangement.

Perhaps it’s Adeline’s last remaining conscience.

“Kiss… Jihyuk… I want a kiss…”

Come to think of it, her way of speaking is still the same.

I gave her a deep kiss on the lips as she squirmed below, then lifted her upper body.

After that, I hugged her from behind and continued fingering her.

“Heehee…♡ It tickles…!”

Every time I teased her, Adeline twitched as if electrocuted.

Her legs spread wide, her hands restless, both lewd and unbearably cute.

“Jihyuk…! Stop it…! It tickles…! Stop it…!”

“Should I stop?”

“Yes… Stop it… You idiot…♡”

“Adeline has sworn to serve only me now, so you should show some respect.”

“Huh…?”

“Say, ‘Master, please stop.'”

Adeline fell silent.

Her cheeks puffed up, clearly showing she’d rather die than say it.

“Jihyuk… you’re…”

“Shouldn’t treat me like that?”

“Yes… Master… I hate it… Hyaaaah♡”

Adeline, who had been whining, let out a moan.

I had brushed against her protruding clitoris from below.

Adeline’s heels lifted, her toes curling to the limit.

“Jihyuk…! Don’t do this…! I told you to stop…!”

“Then what did I tell you to say?”

“…Ugh…! I… hate it…!”

Squish-!

My finger plunged deep into her pussy.

Adeline’s shoulders hunched, her heels lifting high.

“Huaaah…♡ You bad…! Demon…!”

“You should speak politely. Our Adeline is a good girl.”

Teasing her with a playful tone, I stirred her heated insides and pressed her G-spot.

The reaction was immediate.

“Ah…! Hwaaaah…”

Adeline’s body went limp, and a translucent liquid trickled out.

After another orgasm, Adeline slumped down.

Resting my chin on her shoulder, I patted her pussy and spoke.

“Adeline.”

“Huh… Why…♡”

“Do you like it?”

“Yes…!”

“Do you know how pretty you are now?”

At the blatant compliment, Adeline’s head shook wildly.

“Aah… I don’t know…♡”

Adeline’s unique charm, her cuteness.

I love it so much… I might end up becoming Adeline’s retainer at this rate.

I kissed her sweat-drenched forehead and reached toward the nightstand.

Whoosh-!

A hand mirror floated into the air and came toward me.

Adeline, still dazed, didn’t see this.

Not that it would mean anything even if she did.

Grabbing the mirror, I held it up to Adeline’s face.

“Huh…?”

Adeline, who had been making cute sounds like Yuria during her training, looked at the mirror.

And then she was startled.

Eyes that looked demonic to anyone, skin even paler than usual… it’s no wonder she was shocked.

Adeline, who had just been squirting in excitement, started chattering her teeth, perhaps frightened by her appearance.

“Hwaaa…! Jihyuk…! A monster…! There’s a monster…!”

“Monster?”

“Your eyes are weird…! My eyes…! What happened to them…!”

Adeline raised her hands to rub her eyes.

Does she not realize what’s on her hands right now?

I crossed my legs in front of her, blocking her hands, and she squirmed.

“Let go…! You idiot…!”

“Don’t you like it?”

“You’re like a demon…! It’s like I’ve been possessed by a demon…!”

“It’s proof that Adeline has become mine. You’ve changed because of my magic.”

At those words, all of Adeline’s movements stopped.

Looking at her eyes through the mirror, she asked in a trembling voice.

“…Did you do this…?”

“Adeline accepted my magic, and because she thought it was more sacred than Rosario’s Divine Power, it naturally harmonized.”

Adeline pulled her head so close to the mirror that her nose almost touched it.

Though startled by the vertical pupils, she didn’t try to avoid them like before.

But she was still scared, as she tried to hiccup.

Praise her. She’ll be happy.

“You’re incredibly beautiful.”

“Beautiful…? Really…?”

“Of course. Do you think Adeline is just average?”

“Umm…! I think I might be beautiful…”

She turned her head sharply and started touching my face.

Opening and closing my eyelids to check my pupils, she spoke.

“Jihyuk… you’re the same… You haven’t changed…”

“Isn’t it good that I’m always consistent?”

“…Yes…”

Adeline seemed to be accepting her changes.

Currently, she’s in a state of partial corruption.

That’s why she couldn’t accept the changes in her body, and I thought she’d make a fuss like before, but it was unexpected.

Has her faith in me made her adapt quickly?

Whatever it is, it’s a good sign.

“Does this mean… I’ve become Jihyuk’s family…?”

“Correct. Look here.”

I placed my palm on Adeline’s Demon Realm and channeled my magic.

Her body trembled faintly, and a dark red shadow seeped out of her Demon Realm, spreading across her lower abdomen like a drawing.

“Ah…!”

Adeline gasped.

I patted her lower abdomen, and she quickly calmed down, burying her back into my chest.

“Feeling a bit calmer?”

“…What is this…? It feels ominous… so sticky…”

“It’s proof that Adeline is becoming my retainer.”

“Retainer…?”

“Yes. Once this Divine Mark spreads completely over Adeline’s body, you’ll be reborn. As a retainer who can never be separated from me. No matter what method is used, no miracle can return you to the original Adeline.”

Gulp.

The sound of Adeline swallowing her saliva reached me.

She seemed terrified by the extreme statement.

I rubbed her inner thighs gently and explained again.

“It means becoming my family.”

“…Jihyuk’s family…?”

“That’s right.”

“But… we’re already family… we’re married, aren’t we…?”

“Of course. But we haven’t had a wedding ceremony, have we?”

Adeline glared at me with sunken eyes.

I quickly continued.

“Adeline’s rebirth is called retainerization. This retainerization can be seen as an official wedding ceremony. It’s a true ritual where Adeline’s soul merges with mine.”

“Ah… So… I’ll be reborn as Jihyuk’s true wife…?”

“Exactly. Once retainerization is complete, we’ll be together forever. We’ll share and use the magic that comes from my soul and heart. How is it? Good, right?”

Adeline asked in return.

“Does that mean… Jihyuk can’t abandon me…?”

“Abandon you…? It’s very disappointing to hear you say that.”

“Answer me…! Answer me…! Quickly…!”

“I don’t have any intention of doing so now, but once retainerization is complete, that possibility will disappear entirely. We’ll become closer than blood, so close that ‘sticky’ wouldn’t even describe it.”

Squish…!

The sound of my finger plunging into her wet pussy.

Adeline’s shoulders twitched as she caught her breath.

“Hoo… Hwaa…♡”

“You seem deep in thought. Why?”

“That’s… Rosari… Ahhh♡ Your finger… it’s inside…! It feels good…!”

“Rosario only thinks of using Adeline. Besides, she appeared in your mind earlier and caused you pain. Why is that woman still in Adeline’s heart?”

“……”

“That’s also Rosario’s arrangement. She brainwashed you. To serve only her, and to suffer if you worship any other god.”

“…That, that’s…!”

Even while feeling pleasure and curling her toes, Adeline’s eyes widened.

To her, who believed only my words as truth, this must have been a shock.

A huge one.

“How could that be…! Rosario… did that…?”

“Yes. When Rosario found Adeline no longer useful, she reached out to Silvia. With her wicked and cunning tongue, she brainwashed her, and later, she’ll make her writhe in pain like Adeline.”

“But… but my sister is under Helix’s plot…”

“That Helix is Rosario.”

“What…!?”

Adeline almost screamed.

She turned her head sharply, her voice trembling as she sought the truth.

“Is… is that really true…?”

“To be precise, it’s not Helix but the corrupted Rosario.”

“Rosario… is corrupted…?”

“Yes. The corrupted Rosario is using Helix’s guise to bring chaos to the universe. Her first target was Adeline. A saint who followed her so well. But Adeline overcame the trials with me splendidly. She didn’t fall for the schemes. But Silvia… sigh…”

I sighed regretfully and trailed off. After a long moment of contemplation, Adeline came to her own conclusion.

“Si, Silvia unnie… didn’t have true love by her side, no one to steady her heart, so she fell for the temptation…! Ah…! Now I understand…! Why unnie’s eyes and ears were closed, why she became so ignorant…!”

“That’s right. Because of Rosario. Silvia is one of the people Adeline loves dearly. We must save her. Right?”

Adeline’s expression changed.

From surprise to anger, from anger to determination.

Clenching her fists, she muttered.

“Yes…! We must save her…! My sister, deceived by the wicked Rosario…! We must save her…!”

For the first time, Adeline omitted the honorifics for Rosario.

It was proof that the rooted hatred was growing stronger.

Gooo…!

The dark energy filling the room became much denser.

The shadow of the Demon Realm, which had only spread across her lower abdomen, now crept up to her navel and solar plexus.

She let out a long breath and spoke.

“What should I do… to save my sister…?”

I slowly laid Adeline down and climbed on top of her, smiling.

“Starting now, we’ll begin the true ritual to purify Adeline’s body, tainted by Rosario.”

Adeline’s face twisted.

Not because she felt uncomfortable with my words, but because she felt considerable disgust at being tainted by Rosario.

“Yes…! Quickly…! Cleanse my body and mind…! Retainerization…! Do it…! How do we do it…?”

I bit Adeline’s earlobe, jawline, and neck lightly, leaving kiss marks, and brought her back into excitement.

Then I whispered in her ear.

“Adeline only needs to remember one thing. The firm resolve to abandon Rosario and become my, Tairat’s, retainer. That’s all you need. Understood?”

“Huu… Yes…!”

She didn’t even realize I had subtly revealed my identity.

This was better.

For the current Adeline, learning while doing was better than knowing beforehand.
