About three minutes later.
Lin released Iwanaga Kotoko.
Iwanaga Kotoko leaned back against the seat, her beautiful face flushed red, panting softly.
Her eyes were misty and full of affection.
Her impression of Lin was changing bit by bit in her heart.
Feeling that invisible yet intimate and inseparable connection with Lin, her mood was somewhat complex.
A little happy, a little confused.
Happy because she was together with the object of her love at first sight.
Confused because the progress was too fast.
They had met less than an hour ago today, and now they were together.
From now on, she belonged only to Lin.
Not just her body, but even her soul would gradually be molded into his shape.
The speed of it all left her feeling a bit lost.
It felt as if she were having an erotic dream.
Since it was a dream, there was naturally no need to follow steps one by one.
Lin returned to his own seat.
Looking at the faintly distracted Iwanaga Kotoko, he smiled slightly and asked:
"Kotoko, don't you intend to tell me your story?"
"For instance, about your eye and leg."
"..."
Hearing this, Iwanaga Kotoko slowly came back to her senses, her eyes moving slightly to look at Lin.
There was a dissonance in her two eyes that could not be detected without careful observation.
The right eye seemed somewhat stagnant.
Because her right eye was a prosthetic.
Meeting Lin's gaze, Iwanaga Kotoko smiled and said:
"You've already discovered it."
"Actually, this is the price paid to become the yokai's God of Wisdom: losing my right eye and left leg forever."
"My body is incomplete now; I am a disabled person."
"Will you disdain me?"
As her voice fell, the hands resting on her legs gently gripped the hem of her skirt.
"What do you think?"
Lin did not answer directly, but instead asked back with a smile.
Their gazes met.
In this moment, no one spoke; they simply communicated with their eyes.
A moment later, Iwanaga Kotoko's hands loosened their grip on her skirt, and a happy smile appeared on her face:
"This story starts from when I was eleven years old..."
She began to tell the story.
One night when she was eleven, she was quietly taken by a group of yokai to a place where yokai gathered.
The yokai made a request.
They hoped she would become their God of Wisdom, helping them solve difficulties and questions they could not resolve themselves.
And they stated the price.
After thinking it over, she finally agreed to the yokai's request.
Thus, the yokai signed a certain contract with her, and she became a god at the cost of one eye and one leg.
Just like that, she entered the truer side of the world she lived in.
"So that's how it is."
Lin feigned a sudden realization, then looked at Iwanaga Kotoko and asked:
"Kotoko, do you want to restore your lost eye and leg?"
"You can do that!?"
Iwanaga Kotoko's expression stirred upon hearing this.
If it were possible, no one would be willing to be incomplete.
However, this was her choice after all, so she did not regret it.
Lin smiled: "You forgot my identity so quickly."
"!!!"
Iwanaga Kotoko was slightly stunned.
Her eyes widened a little.
That's right, Lin was a god known to be capable of controlling all things in the universe.
Restoring her lost right eye and left leg should be no problem.
Thinking of this.
She felt a little anticipation in her heart.
Lin smiled and added: "Let's eat first. After eating, I'll take you to a place."
"Okay..."
Iwanaga Kotoko nodded, a look of curiosity appearing in her eyes.
Thus, the two stopped talking and focused on demolishing the cuisine on the table.
Half an hour passed in a flash.
The two left the restaurant.
Lin used a Concealment Card to cover himself and Iwanaga Kotoko, and a Space Card manifested to teleport them back to his residence.
"Hmm???"
Seeing Lin and Iwanaga Kotoko suddenly disappear, the Wagtail yokai and White-Eye yokai were instantly dumbfounded.
What happened just now?
Where did the huge Princess go?
"Come to my house."
Just then, Lin's voice rang out.
It made the bodies of the two small bird yokai tremble, nearly falling to the ground.
Their little hearts were pounding.
Scared the bird, it really scared the bird too much.
"Go or not?"
The Wagtail looked at the White-Eye.
"...Go!"
The White-Eye hesitated for a moment, but ultimately nodded fiercely.
"Alright..."
The Wagtail was helpless.
So, carrying the spirit of 'the wind blows, the water is cold, and the brave warrior will never return,' they headed for the destination.
Lin's residence.
Lin and Iwanaga Kotoko appeared inside the living room on the first floor.
"Where is this?"
Feeling her vision blur and the place change, Iwanaga Kotoko looked around, finally looking at Lin with curiosity.
Lin: "This is my house. Well, one of my homes."
Speaking of which, he thought of Homestead One, paused slightly, and added that sentence.
Iwanaga Kotoko blinked gently: "You have other homes?"
"Yes, I'll take you there later."
Lin nodded with a smile.
Then he asked: "Kotoko, do you want to retain your identity as the yokai's God of Wisdom?"
"What do you mean?"
Iwanaga Kotoko blinked gently.
Lin: "When I help you restore your body, I can incidentally help you dissolve the contract made with the yokai."
He had previously discovered the contract within Iwanaga Kotoko through perception.
The contract with the yokai.
Under the influence of that contract, ordinary means could not restore Iwanaga Kotoko's lost eye and leg.
Therefore, he bestowed the power of the Silver Authority, using the power of immutability to reject the influence of that contract.
This way, he could use healing abilities to restore her body to wholeness.
Of course, he could also directly use Conceptual Separation to separate the contract, and then use healing abilities to restore her.
However, he respected Iwanaga Kotoko's choice.
After a moment of silence, Iwanaga Kotoko smiled and said: "Help me keep this identity. I quite like it."
If she hadn't been willing, she wouldn't have agreed back then.
"Alright, preparing to start."
Lin nodded gently upon hearing this.
After Iwanaga Kotoko removed her prosthetics, he activated the Recovery Card from the Inherent Spirit Dress: Cards of All Creation, borrowing the conceptual power of recovery.
Theoretically, it could restore any damaged thing to a complete state.
At the same time, his right hand cast Sky Magic.
The two powers entered Iwanaga Kotoko's body together without conflict.
"Ah..."
An intense sensation of comfort came from within her body. Iwanaga Kotoko subconsciously let out a moan, her body trembling.
The next moment, she reacted abruptly.
Her fair face instantly turned red.
She bit her lip lightly, forcing herself not to make a sound.
She felt a tingly, numb sensation at her right eye and left leg, as if something were growing out rapidly.
It wasn't uncomfortable at all; it was very comfortable.
But she still closed her eyes, waiting for it all to end.
Soon, all sensations dissipated.
"Open your eyes, Kotoko."
Lin's voice rang out.
Hearing this, Iwanaga Kotoko carefully opened her eyes and immediately sensed the difference from before.
Her right eye could see.
There was no discomfort whatsoever, as if her eye had never had any issues.
Surprise emerged, and she couldn't help but look down.
A leg with snow-white skin instantly appeared in her field of vision; she could clearly perceive its existence.
The fair and tender toes moved gently.
She stood up from the sofa and tried walking a few steps. There was no discomfort at all, and a happy smile instantly appeared on her face.
"Lin, thank you!"
Iwanaga Kotoko looked at Lin, a look of gratitude on her face.
She lacked nothing now!
