Again.

He had done it again.

Even despite promising himself to be better, he still couldn't resist the lustful urge and hold himself back for Fischl's sake.

He simply couldn't refuse an invitation that tempting without at least once having a piece of ass in the end.

He had simply proven himself incapable of suppressing his urges and desires, in favor of bending to his own selfish whims instead.

(I'm really a piece of shit...)

He knew it all too well, and was definitely accepting the harsh truth.

He was greedy.

Greedy to the point of shamelessness.

Greedy to the point of breaking any promise.

Greedy to the point of death.

Despite getting an amazing girlfriend who loved him unconditionally, unlike those fakes back in his old world, he was greedy enough to want another one immediately.

Hu Tao, and then Fischl.

A brand new trophy to add to his shelf of conquests to satiate his fiery beast.

He wanted to at least show his love to his other girlfriend as well, but failed to hold himself back.

Not to mention, he was already full of thoughts regarding the other two girls who seemed to have showed interest in him.

As two lovers weren't enough, right? He needed more trophies to accomplish the task to satisfy his needs.

"..."

That long rumination carried on for awhile longer with his brows furrowed, lips contorted in dissatisfaction.

(No, I'm not like that. This world is different. Has different rules. Polygamy is a normal thing. I don't collect throphies. I'm serious about every woman and I care for them very much...)

He acknowledged himself within his heart and sighed.

He would make sure to give all of his love to Fischl as well, in order to make it up to her hundredfold.

Finally coming back to reality, he realized he was being watched by Hu Tao.

He cleared his throat and looked down at his naked lover with concerned eyes.

"...Hu Tao?"

She seemed somewhat off ever since the beginning. Of course, she was still sleepwalking, but now that he seriously looked at her, she seemed strange.

Not long after his question, a white light began emanating from her smiling face, causing him to become anxious about it.

"Hu Tao...?" His voice came out slightly more apprehensive now, feeling uneasy.

Something wasn't quite right. The thin veil of silence shrouded the room, as the bright light from her body was intensified in magnificence.

"...This is!?"

"Kyu!"

Suddenly, a childlike laughter burst out from within her.

A white entity flew out of Hu Tao's chest, floating around the room.

"Isn't this...the ghost of the little girl which Hu Tao keeps at her side at all times? I was wondering where it disappeared to as I haven't seen it in a long time..."

"...Eh? Assistant? Why am I in your bed?" A tired voice spoke out to Yomite.

It was Hu Tao, who was looking around in confusion at her surroundings. It appeared she was no longer asleep.

The last thing she remembered was kissing Yomite and then everything went blank.

But now, she found herself in his bed, covered in his fluids and cuddling in his warm embrace.

Not that she minded.

"Wait....what happened? Why did that ghost of yours fly out of you?"

Yomite furrowed his eyebrows, trying to grasp what was going on.

"Eh...I don't remember~"

That statement alone gave him clear confirmation that Hu Tao had been awakened from her sleep walking trance, no longer dreamwalking within it.

(But something's strange...why would she come back to normal when the ghost flew out of her...was she perhaps being possessed?)

The scary thought caused him to clutch hold of her hand tightly, although his worries died down quickly as she smiled brightly.

"Are you okay? Could it be that the reason why you're sleepwalking is because you're being possessed by this little runt!?" His hostile gaze was aimed at the little entity that hid itself behind Hu Tao's back.

"I'm okie dokie! No worries, silly!""

She offered a thumbs up and waved it off, suggesting nothing terrible had occurred to cause her distress.

Although she seemed fine now, it was probably best to resolve this issue immediately.

Ghost possession was no joke.

Something like that happened in horror movies all the time, and for it to be happening to his dearest one made him frantic. He never imagined it'd ever happen in real life. Although with ghosts being real in this world, it was probably only a matter of time before something like that happened...

Still, there must've been some sort of reason why it was happening.

Perhaps, because she was a worker of a funeral parlor, her connection with the dead was stronger than average or maybe it was due to the influence of Hu Tao's spirit…

(But this is still alarming.)

BEst

Whatever it was, if it were to continue, then there would certainly be a risk for her health.

Hu Tao noticed his worried expression and smiled cutely.

"Aw, are you worried about me? How cute ~"

She squeezed his hand reassuringly as she gave him a playful smile, picking herself up from atop of his physique and straightening her back with a groan.

"Of course I am...do you think I'll be able to ignore something of this degree? Your sleep walking happened many times before, and if a possession is the reason why it's happening, then we need to resolve this issue or else something might actually happen to you."

Even though his voice sounded stern, it was evident that his true concern was for her wellbeing.

The situation required immediate action.

If they failed to handle it properly, the consequences could possibly spiral out of control.

He wasn't the type to stand by and watch his beloved suffer a potential deathbed through careless neglect.

If he couldn't figure out something himself, he would relay the info to his party members and maybe they would come up with a solution.

"Now, now! I'm telling you it's all fine and dandy! Stop looking so grim! This litte girl is harmless, please don't be angry with her!"

She reached out her hand towards the white entity and hugged it in her arms.

"Kyu!"

The little ghost responded reverently before snuggling in her embrace like the most treasured gift.
