Anime Collector: Starting With the Malevolent Shrine

Night slowly descended over the sky.

Outside Nakano Hospital, crows with obsidian eyes gathered.

At Daiki's command, the crows shot forth like arrows. The dense flock soared above Chiba, and through his Black Bird Manipulation technique, he shared their vision of the cityscape below.

Each crow bore a Spatial Mark within its body, allowing him to teleport to any of them instantly. The technique required barely any cursed energy.

Daiki smiled at how perfectly his spatial ability complemented the Black Bird Manipulation.

Meanwhile, the woman in his arms watched in shock as he simply manipulated two crows to enter through the window of the room they were and land on his hand, only to fly away again.

Mei, who was completely spent after giving her virginity and having the hottest encounter she had ever experienced in her life, stared at Daiki in shock.

This man... Not only had he taken advantage of her, but he had also somehow copied her Innate Technique! It didn't matter that he was caressing her waist now and sending shivers throughout her body, this was still unacceptable!

What could this Sorcerer's copying restriction be? Surely such acts couldn't be the key to stealing techniques?

Suguru's face flashed through her mind, but she quickly banished the thought—it was too frightening to contemplate. Besides, this man beneath her who still seemed eager to ravish her didn't appear to be the type who swung that way.

He had made it very clear that his interest was solely in women... especially in her, for some reason?

"Can I leave now?" Mei had already decided to flee to Malaysia, never to return to Chiba if she could help it.

She was afraid of falling into this man's arms again and being unable to escape. What if she actually became bound to him? Not by force, but of her own free will?

She had always been terrified of sharing her money with anyone else...

Until Daiki came along.

"Of course. But I believe I deserve something for us. You know, couples share everything fifty-fifty, so I'll be humble with you and ask for something simple: transfer your Tokyo real estate and stocks to me." He replied with composure.

Her beautiful eyes widened in shock as she brushed aside her hair. This scoundrel wasn't satisfied with violating her—he wanted her wealth too.

How did he even know about her assets? Had they met before? Had she accidentally revealed too much?

Her mind raced, but one thing was certain — she wouldn't surrender her fortune. It meant more to her than life itself.

"Why don't we continue instead?" Mei forced an awkward smile.

She couldn't! She wouldn't! She absolutely would not give her money to anyone!

So her goal now was to drain this fearless and powerful man until he felt pity, or love, and let her go far away! Even if it took all night, she felt she could do it!

Besides, she noticed, perhaps imagined, that her Cursed Energy had increased slightly. Whether this had anything to do with him or not she didn't know, but it was worth testing.

Daiki could only shake his head at her obvious greed.

"My dear Mei, you're not willing to share something so simple with your first and only man." He smiled while holding her chin, giving a soft kiss to her red lips.

"I..." Mei was about to retort when she felt his kiss and his tongue enter her mouth.

That simply heavenly taste he possessed again infiltrated her palate, making her mind wander with closed eyes for a while. Especially when his thick and firm hand caressed her hair, making the woman's mind drift back to previous events.

But soon the kiss ended, and Mei snapped back.

"I'd rather die than give them up." When it came to stocks and real estate, her stubbornness emerged.

Her defiance made him laugh, fazendo com que ele apertasse a bochecha dela.

"Then don't blame me for using you to cultivate." Mordendo o beicinho que ela estava fazendo, ele se deitou por cima dela na cama de hospital do quarto onde estavam.

Supreme Dual Cultivation, Yin-Yang Primordial Method activated!

Daiki advanced forcefully, causing Mei's expression to change as waves of sensation overcame her.

"Wait... please—" Before she could finish, another wave crashed through her.

Daiki focused on the technique, his power steadily growing as he pressed forward relentlessly. His hips moved with firm purpose while the woman beneath him could only feel the pleasure overtaking her.

Hum!

An intense pressure enveloped him, in Mei's futile attempt to also try to defeat him. But no matter how much Cursed Energy she used to reinforce her body and grip, could she really overcome someone with Cursed Energy several times stronger like Daiki?

Then defeat was certain once again, and Mei only felt her legs shake as if they were convulsing!

The burning energy nourished his body, calming his mind. Another strand of yin-yang power was extracted.

Mei gasped heavily, her body trembling, eyes unfocused. Daiki remained silent, preparing to extract more power.

"Stop... the stocks... you can have them." He didn't respond, so she added desperately, "The real estate too!"

Her poor money! She had worked so hard for them!

But if she didn't give this voracious man what he wanted, they would spend the night here, with her spilling so many fluids she could die of dehydration. Or worse, she might start wanting more of him!

"See how easy that was?" He whispered in her ear, sending another shiver, "Next time you disobey me, I'll show you why you should comply quickly."

At this, Daiki finally released her and took out her phone. Furious at his distrust, she made the urgent calls to have her staff transfer the assets.

She looked at him helplessly, disbelief in her eyes. She still couldn't believe she had actually handed over her possessions to him...

Just when she thought it was over, Daiki continued.

"Damn you! You untrustworthy bastard... mmph..." A tingling sensation overwhelmed her body, leaving her limp and powerless.

"I'm sorry, dear Mei. You're too irresistible for me to let this opportunity pass." Daiki held her waist, savoring the moment.

Her flexibility rivaled Mafuyu's!

Nino, who was watching over Miku, lifted her guilty eyes.

Itsuki was gently shaking her shoulder, "You need to rest. Nino, don't exhaust yourself, let me take over."

Nino glanced around. Mafuyu and the others were still hard at work.

Utaha was drafting a light novel on her phone, Fumino drowsily worked through a complex science problem and Saki had stepped away briefly to comfort her sister Keika.

The main reason for her absence was that the little girl had received a strand of Spititual Power — secretly given to her by Mafuyu. Though uncertain of its origin, Saki remained discreet about it.

Looking at the exhausted teacher beside her, she felt deeply grateful.

"Sorry for making you worry. I lost track of time." The blood vessels in Nino's eyes betrayed her fatigue.

"It's fine, just make sure to rest. I bought you a face mask on my way here." Itsuki proudly displayed the face mask, bringing a smile to her sister's face.

It wasn't the face mask that made her happy — it was Itsuki's thoughtfulness.

"Thank you." Nino said warmly, accepting the face mask.

"Hehe... By the way, Nino, is this face mask okay? I'm not familiar with the brands, so tell me if I chose poorly." Itsuki held a meat bun, looking uncertain.

"Face masks are mostly psychological — they're fine as long as they're decent quality." Nino explained with a relaxed smile.

But Itsuki shook her head.

"That can't be true! Your face masks must be working — your skin is smoother and more delicate than before. Did you switch brands recently?" Her fingertip brushed Nino's cheek admiringly.

She wasn't exaggerating — Nino's skin had indeed changed subtly.

"Really? I hadn't even noticed." Nino touched her cheek in surprise, knowing she hadn't changed face masks.

The only change was her intimate relationship with Daiki.

Could it be...? Her fair cheeks flushed crimson. How could such a thing be possible?

But besides this change, nothing else was different.

"I'll tell you a secret — Ichika must have been using your face masks. Her skin changes are even more noticeable than yours, but she denied it when I asked." Itsuki whispered in Nino's ear.

She didn't notice her sister's smile suddenly freeze.

Nino turned abruptly to look at Ichika sleeping peacefully. The changes in her skin were unmistakable, like precious jade.

She had been too flustered to notice before. Now, all her confusion came rushing back.

Suddenly, everything clicked into place!

She walked to her sister's side in disbelief and sniffed.

'Damn it! That's Daiki-kun's scent!' Nino's small fists clenched with a crack.

To think she had been sitting there feeling guilty, even thanking Ichika.

She'd been betrayed while counting her blessings!

Her guilt, troubles, and depression vanished — replaced by pure anger!

No wonder Ichika and Daiki had stayed out so long before returning. No wonder her sister was willing to keep her relationship with him secret.

Of course she kept it secret — how else could she steal him away?

How laughable that she had sat there thanking Ichika for keeping quiet! She probably started the affair the moment Nino's back was turned!

Her face burned with rage at the betrayal.

Did they think she would let this slide? Did they take her for a fool?
