Fortunately, Badr never hid his true feelings from Rias and the others. He spoke and laughed as usual, clearly showing that his relationship with them was already very close.
This feeling of successfully opening the boy's heart gave Rias and Akeno a sense of accomplishment...
Rias clapped her hands lightly, drawing everyone's attention.
"Um, has everyone received a contract request today?"
Everyone except Badr raised their hands.
Badr: "..."
Summoning his familiar's sealing stamp, Badr spoke softly:
"Have you been playing around instead of working?"
The sealing stamp flapped its wings and flew around wildly, clearly unhappy with Badr's accusation. It had diligently distributed the flyers.
Badr was skeptical: "If you distributed them properly, who did you give them to?"
The sealing stamp immediately presented a long list of distribution records, flooding Badr's mind with numerous images.
After a quick scan, a few black lines appeared on Badr's forehead.
"Why did you only give them to girls?"
Hearing this, Rias and the others came closer, looking at the sealing stamp with mixed feelings.
This little guy really was mischievous. Not only did it like stripping clothes off, but it was also quite harsh towards men...
"Alright, alright, giving them all to girls isn't a big deal. Are you discriminating against women?" Rias said with a laugh.
"Generally, the desires of females can be satisfied by males. Males are naturally inclined to show off to attract females. This is an instinctive part of species evolution," Badr said calmly. "Therefore, the desires of human females can mostly be met by males, commonly known as 'simps.' My target group was wrong. No wonder I couldn't find a contract."
Everyone: "..."
"Is it really that complicated?"
"Really, look at the genders of your contract clients, and you'll find that most of them are male."
They looked at each other and, upon closer inspection, realized it was true...
Badr exhaled softly:
"Females can choose to rely on males, but males can only rely on themselves. If they don't make themselves excellent, they lose their mating rights. Such people are under a lot of pressure, and high pressure leads them to seek us devils for help."
Rias and the others were speechless.
"It feels like something is off, but there seems to be some truth to it?" Koneko said, looking puzzled at Badr.
Badr looked indifferent, spreading his hands:
"If it weren't for life's pressures, who would bother to develop so many talents?"
Everyone: "..."
Rias smiled gently: "Alright, stop philosophizing. Those of us with contract requests need to get to work to fulfill those poor men's desires."
Badr tilted his head: "That sounds like some kind of service industry. If there are excessive requests, you must refuse them and punish them. Especially Asia, she's too pure."
"Huh? Of course not," Rias said with a laugh.
"Although there are indeed humans who make excessive requests, such requests are handled by lower-ranked Devils. We, the Gremory family, would never take on such requests!"
Badr smiled faintly. Even without Rias saying so, he could guess. After all, Rias performance in bed was too inexperienced, not at all like someone with experience...
Everyone prepared to leave, even Rias had a contract request. In the end, Badr was left with nothing to do.
Watching everyone teleport away one by one, Badr could only sit on the sofa and read a book.
This was really annoying. He had just gone to Mai yesterday to absorb the benefits of the contract. Although he wanted to see Mai, it wouldn't be good to cling to her every day, as she still had work to do.
Damn it... even his girlfriend had work...
Everyone had work, but he was the only one idle and bored?
Badr pursed his lips, thinking he might have to distribute flyers himself, even with a familiar.
That would be too low...
Just as he was feeling speechless, Badr suddenly noticed himself glowing.
Was this... a contract summon?
"Hmm?"
After confirming it was indeed a summoning spell, and not from Mai Sakurajima, but a new summoning client.
Glancing at the sealing stamp, he thought that this guy distributed flyers to beautiful girls, who usually had many admirers willing to fulfill their wishes.
It seemed luck was on his side. Perhaps a blind cat had caught a dead mouse...
No matter, how could he miss such an opportunity!
Badr immediately stood up with a smile.
Yes, I love work!
---
In a large high-end apartment building, there was a burst of cheerful laughter.
"Ah... finally home, I'm exhausted..."
A girl said in a tone full of relief, collapsing heavily onto the sofa.
Beside her stood four other girls.
But what was surprising was that all five girls looked identical!
They were... quintuplets.
---
The door closed, and the nameplate on the wall beside the door had the standard characters "Nakano."
"Ichika, you're taking up too much space. Move over a bit," said the girl with black butterfly hairbands, walking over.
She was the second oldest of the quintuplets, named Nakano Nino. Their names were ordered by age, and the one on the sofa was the eldest, Nakano Ichika.
"Haha, sorry, sorry, please sit," Nakano Ichika said, wriggling a bit and hugging a pillow, contentedly pressing her face against it with a cute moan of comfort.
Nakano Nino sat on the sofa, looking at her three sisters opposite her: Nakano Miku, Nakano Yotsuba, and Nakano Itsuki.
"So, what now? We did so poorly on the exams. Dad will definitely rush back from the company when he finds out," Nino said in a troubled tone.
Yotsuba immediately shrank her neck, awkwardly smiling and touching the green ribbon on her head.
She had undoubtedly taken the last place among her sisters in this exam, gloriously scoring zero...
Next to her, Nakano Miku leaned casually against the sofa, while Nakano Itsuki rummaged through the refrigerator for some milk.
"Prepare for a scolding," Miku replied lightly, then fell silent without further explanation.
"It shouldn't be a big problem... Dad's probably used to it," Itsuki said nonchalantly after sipping her milk.
"…"
"Haha, then let's not worry," Ichika said casually, seemingly not concerned at all. She turned over, stretching comfortably: "So tired, let's wash up and watch the latest movie on the sofa!"
"Hmph, if you all don't care, then I won't either," Nino said, smirking and giving up as well.
Itsuki, carrying her milk, suddenly noticed a piece of paper sticking out of Yotsuba's pocket.
"Hmm? Yotsuba, what's this?"
As she spoke, Itsuki reached into Yotsuba's pocket and pulled out the paper.
The sisters saw that it was a complex pattern that looked like a magic circle.
Itsuki read the text on it aloud:
"The most magical wish spell, granting all your desires. Make a wish now..."
After reading, Nino showed a bored expression:
"Really? I thought some boy had slipped you a love letter. Yotsuba, why are you still playing with such childish things..."
Yotsuba chuckled awkwardly:
"It's not that. I saw a very pretty lady handing out flyers on the way home, and she gave me one, so I took it..."
"Probably just another boring mall promotion," Nino said dismissively. "Yotsuba, you really need to learn to say no. You don't have to accept everything handed to you."
"Haha... I just thought her job looked tough..."
The sisters didn't comment further. They knew Yotsuba's personality.
"This flyer doesn't mention any specific promotional events. Strange," Itsuki said, tossing it on the table.
Miku, sitting on the sofa armrest, glanced at the odd flyer but didn't pay much attention.
"Let me see... a wish spell... Can I really make a wish?" Yotsuba's green ribbon twitched as she looked intrigued.
"Huh? No way, Yotsuba. Do you really believe in that?" Nino rolled her eyes.
"Hehe, I thought maybe I could wish for some luck. It's unfair that I scored zero even though I answered seriously..." Yotsuba mumbled.
Ichika couldn't help but laugh: "You could have guessed a few right. Maybe you do need some divine luck..."
"Right? Right?"
Yotsuba ignored her sister's teasing, genuinely starting to pray and make a wish.
Her four sisters watched in silence.
If wishes worked, they would have asked for perfect scores long ago...
But as they were dismissing it, Yotsuba, praying sincerely, made her wish.
The next moment, the flyer on the table, with the magic circle, began to glow.
It brightened rapidly, hovering in the air!
"Huh!?"
Itsuki, the first to notice, stood frozen, holding her milk, staring at the levitating magic circle in confusion.
Miku and Nino noticed too, followed by Ichika, who opened her eyes at Itsuki's exclamation.
The magic circle slowly separated from the flyer, growing larger and brighter!
Whoosh!!
With a soft sound, a figure emerged from the circle, landing lightly before the astonished girls.
Facing them, Yotsuba gaped, still clasping her hands in prayer, staring at the boy who appeared out of nowhere.
Badr arrived via the summoning, using his own teleportation spell.
With his magic level upgraded to mid-level devil, he could finally use the teleport
ation magic he had once envied. This initial experience was quite satisfying.
Looking at his summoners, he raised an eyebrow.
These five girls looked identical. What was going on?
Slightly surprised internally, Badr maintained a calm exterior, looking at Yotsuba. He knew she was the one who summoned him through the contract.
