Chapter 12 Milk Tea Cup
The campus environment of University A is very good. There is a large artificial lake in the center, surrounded by green plants and plenty of seats. Students like to sit by the lake to study or enjoy the cool air after class.
After Duan Ke and Helekla finished their water lesson, they ordered a cup of milk tea and sat by the lake to cool off.
Soft, discordant humming continued to come from the side. Helekla held his chin and turned his head, asking boredly: "What made you so happy? Did you pick up money?"
"No."
Duan Ke took a sip of the full-sugar roasted milk with both hands and said seriously, "Brother Hele, you can't just think about making money. Isn't there anything else beautiful in life that's worth your attention?"
"Oh." Helekla crossed her legs and folded her hands, glancing at Duan Ke. "In your eyes, is there anything more important than consuming human essence?"
"No."
"Then what are you talking about me?"
He was indeed a cunning Western capitalist, and Duan Ke felt that he could not win the argument with him.
Duan Ke's temper was like a stuffed daifuku: if you poked it, it would just sink, then slowly rebound when you stopped. If you poked it too hard, it would simply deflate and lie flat on the plate. So Duan Ke easily gave up on arguing and answered the original question.
"My owner finally agreed to kiss me last night, so I'm very happy."
Having said that, Duan Ke's mind began to replay the scenes of last night.
After he proposed the new feeding method, Qin Huai suddenly hugged him very tightly and refused to let go. He kept pressing the back of his head a little forcefully but not so hard that it would hurt Duan Ke, until Duan Ke groaned in pain in his arms and was finally let go.
Duan Ke was no longer being held down, but was lifted up by his buttocks and sat on Qin Huai's strong legs. Qin Huai's shoulders were very broad, blocking Duan Ke's view. He couldn't see Qin Huai's face clearly, but he could feel that the skin temperature of this usually calm man was a little high, and his breathing seemed a little hoarse and heavy.
Duan Ke smiled as he recalled these scenes, his dimples drooping. But then he seemed to think of something else, his thin, light-colored eyebrows drooping. He sighed softly, took out his phone, and turned on the clock.
Duan Ke muttered dejectedly, "But he said it can only be once a week, no more than one kiss allowed. This is a shame. It's still 71 hours and 38 minutes away from our first kiss. It's really tormenting!"
"ha?!?!"
It was so absurd that Helekla almost spit out the tea in his mouth. He couldn't believe it.
"Kissing?? Once a week?? Oh my God, are you and him playing house?"
Helekla stretched out her hand and made the sign of four, her gem-green eyes widening. "I thought you two had already collapsed at least four beds! Duan Ke, did you find a high school student? What grown man would play Platonic with the First Succubus?"
"My owner can do it." Duan Ke stirred the milk tea in his hand so that he could drink the pearls at the bottom, and said innocently.
"He doesn't seem to be interested in me, and he doesn't like kissing."
"I asked him yesterday if he could have sex with me without kissing, and he refused. Maybe he just doesn't like physical contact?"
"No, he's doing it to nourish his stomach. Let's get rid of him!" Helekla clapped his hands and said decisively.
"I'll find one for you. You can pick any young and handsome one. Since we know each other well, I can give you... 20% discount." Helekla originally made the number nine with his hand, but changed it to eight in the middle.
Helekla's last three words seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth. Duan Ke knew that for him, a 20% discount was already the extent of breaking bones and shattering them. Under normal circumstances, Helekla would probably give a 9.99% discount.
Duan Ke was very touched, but still refused.
"Thank you, but no thanks. I don't want to get rid of him. I've already promised my owner that we're one-on-one!"
"And I've already asked Little Black Ball to help me find a suitable human. If things get really difficult together, I'll change owners myself."
As soon as Duan Ke finished speaking, the little black ball that had not been seen for a long time suddenly spoke as if it had received some kind of inspiration.
Duan Ke held the milk tea straw in his mouth and looked in the direction of the sound in surprise.
"Master Duan Ke! Master Duan Ke!"
A small, round, black ball ripped through the void at the lake's edge. First, its short forelimbs emerged, followed by its entire, dark, round body. In his hand, he held a piece of paper larger than himself, with a few sparsely written words on it.
"Xiao Hei!" Duan Ke happily stretched out his hands to hold it, his almond eyes shining.
"Thank you for your hard work. What have you gained these past two days?"
"Of course, Master Duan Ke!"
The little black ball proudly shook the paper. "I've scoured the land of City A and finally found a few men who might just meet your taste! Lord Duan Ke, please take a look!"
The succubi's blunt words made Helekla's eyelids twitch.
These words made Duan Ke look like a tyrant emperor who was about to turn over the cards, and the little black ball was the eunuch who presented the tray.
This made him very curious about what was written on the paper, even if it had nothing to do with making money. He asked reservedly, "Can I see it?"
"Sure." Duan Ke came over good-naturedly and put the paper between the two of them.
Helekla looked carefully and saw the words written on it:
Chen XX, 21 years old, 188cm tall, eight-pack abs, 21cm, lasted about 20 minutes. Xiao Hei's review: Plus point for length, minus point for appearance! It's average-looking, not very appetizing! If other owners are being squeezed to death by you, Duan Ke might just try it.
Gu XX, 27 years old, 183cm tall, six-pack abs, 18cm, estimated duration 26 minutes. Xiaohei's review: This one is a bit short, but the duration is okay, and the look is okay. I highly recommend it! If Mr. Duan Ke doesn't mind age, you can choose this one!
Lu X, 22 years old, height 191cm, 24cm, male model for AA company. Xiaohei's sharp review: He's handsome and so cool, big time! Big time!
…
There are only five or six people in total, and they are all recorded in this simple way.
After reading the entire article, Helekla uttered a few tuts of shock, the eloquent businessman unable to speak for a moment. He choked for nearly half a minute, then pointed at the line "Lu X" and stared at Duan Ke with an embarrassed expression.
"Do you see this cup of black tea in my hand?"
Duan Ke turned around and answered obediently: "I saw it."
Helekla hummed and pointed at the line of words again.
"24cm. Is that any different from swallowing this cup of milk tea raw?"
“……?”
Duan Ke tilted his head in confusion, and a question mark slowly appeared on his forehead.
Although he didn't know what this had to do with the milk tea cup, he was a good-tempered succubus who would answer any questions. Duan Ke touched his belly seriously and explained:
"24 is fine. I have a reproductive cavity, and if you add it up with the ones above, well... I haven't tried it, but I think it should be quite swallowable."
Helekla choked for another half minute before finally managing to utter, "Wow."
He took the initiative to sit a little further away from Duan Ke to show that he really had no improper intentions. Helekla said worriedly, "Your master knows that you told me this... He won't kill me, right?"
Although he had never even met Duan Ke's owner, his instincts, cultivated over millennia, told him that a man who could hold his own against ten men was far from ordinary, a tough character not to be trifled with. Helekla chose to keep his distance.
"No, he's a very nice person, not violent at all, very gentle."
Duan Ke defended Qin Huai very seriously and folded the paper neatly and put it in his pocket.
"And why do you want to be silenced? It seems like there's nothing you can't say."
For the succubi, discussing this kind of thing was as easy as eating and drinking. So Helekla stopped worrying about it, ignored the two succubi, and continued to study his stocks.
"Lord Duan Ke, is there any human you like?"
The little black ball lay on the back of the seat, his short tail wagging. "If there's anyone you like, I'll call him over right now and discuss the terms with him."
Duan Ke was drinking milk tea while listening carefully to what the little black ball said, but when he heard the words "negotiate terms", he suddenly stopped chewing the pearls and suddenly realized something.
——It seemed that he had never discussed the conditions of "raising" with Qin Huai!
Yes, when Qin Huai was first invited, he said "I will pay you", but it seems that he has not given Qin Huai any benefits until now. Qin Huai did not take the initiative to ask for compensation, but just fed him blood in a good-tempered manner and agreed to kiss him.
Duan Ke tried to use common sense to figure out the reason. Was it because he had disguised himself as a kitten that Qin Huai had sympathized with him?
Maybe this is part of the reason, but it seems to be more than that.
Duan Ke suddenly thought of the soft-boiled egg that Qin Huai pushed to him, and the strong yet warm hug that made him want to soften in it, accompanied by the man's heavy breathing.
…
Duan Ke is very good at observing humans.
He would occasionally see humans playing with cats at school. If the cat had a good temper, humans would indeed feed them and occasionally hug them, wanting to be close to them.
But it seems that no human would take a kitten home casually. If one day, a human passes the layers of tests of an organization called the Cat Department and takes a kitten home in a box, it means that they will become a family from now on. The kitten will be loved unconditionally by the human and will also bring comfort to the human.
And last night, Qin Huai invited him to his home, thinking he was a kitten.
Does this mean that Qin Huai did these things willingly for his own good?
As he thought about it, Duan Ke felt a sour, swollen feeling in his heart, like a bottle of soda that had been shaken and then opened. He didn't know how to describe this feeling. It was different from happiness and different from sadness, but it didn't seem bad.
"...Master Duan Ke, what's wrong with you?"
The little black ball flew around Duan Ke a few times in confusion and found that his king was staring blankly with a straw in his mouth. His delicate and plump little face was red. He didn't know if it was because of the heat or what.
But isn’t Wang drinking an ice drink now?
As the little black ball flew, an idea flashed through its unintelligent brain. It held its head and screamed, "Master Duan Ke, you wouldn't dislike any of them, would you?"
"These are the most capable people in City A, absolutely true! What if you don't like any of them? You can't just starve forever!"
Just when the little black ball was thinking about whether he should persuade his king like the butler in the rich man's comics, "Master, please have a bite," Helekla, who had been silent all the time, spoke up.
"Don't you realize that your king is in pretty good spirits right now? Why are you worrying about that?"
The little black ball was reminded and finally reacted. He looked his lord up and down and found that Duan Ke had completely lost the weakness he had suffered from hunger and his magic power was still quite abundant.
Moreover, the quality of the essence that Duan Ke consumed seemed to be very good. The corners of his eyes and eyebrows were all tinged with a moisturized red, and his skin was more delicate and translucent. He looked like a ripe petal that would ooze juice if pinched.
Little Black Ball was very surprised: "... Could it be that you have already found a suitable owner, Master Duan Ke?"
"Yeah." Duan Ke happily stood up from the bench and patted the fallen leaves on his body. "I'll take you to see him, okay?"
-
Even within the same species of monsters, there are subtle differences in abilities between individuals, just like humans have different heights.
The little black ball's unique ability was to discern the "quality" of the humans in the food storage. Just as the paper indicated, it could automatically detect detailed data such as their height, duration, length, and thickness, all by using its charm on them, like a spherical scanner.
It was once very proud of its ability, because it was an important weapon to assist Lord Duan Ke. From now on, the food that Lord Duan Ke ate would have to go through layers of inspection by itself to ensure that it was of qualified quality!
But not every human being can gain the favor of Lord Duan Ke!
So when Duan Ke told the little black ball that he and Qin Huai were in a one-to-one relationship, the little black ball expressed a fierce protest to their king for the first time.
"Master Duan Ke, how can we do this!" The little black ball huddled in Duan Ke's front pocket and waved his hands excitedly.
"You are the noble Ancestral Succubus! The King of Succubi! All humans will bow down before you! How can you single out one human for your benefit? This is totally against the rules... Why does he deserve to eat so well..."
While listening to the chatter in his pocket, Duan Ke took out his access card, opened the gate of the community, got into the elevator and pressed the floor button.
When no one was looking, he pulled the little black ball out of his pocket and argued seriously, "No, his X ability is very strong. I can feel it. You'll know when you meet him later."
Little Black Ball was heartbroken after hearing this.
Oh no! After all this persuasion, it actually backfired! Lord Duan Ke was even more convinced of this damned human!
This human must have wanted to monopolize their beautiful king, and used some despicable means to confuse Lord Duan Ke!
It felt like it was a loyal minister who was in urgent need of rescuing a tyrant, just like in a TV drama.
When you see that abominable man later, you must report his data loudly to Master Duan Ke so that Master Duan Ke can know his true face! !
