"What makes you think today will be any different?"
"It will be! I know it will. So please, hurry...!"
Lucifer glared up at me with fire in her eyes. I grabbed her face with my own hands and pulled her out of Flauros's roots.
"Hehe, you've been thoroughly marinated."
Lucifer was naked, her entire body sticky with the roots' mucus. Flauros, ever tactful, presented Lucifer to me by simply lifting the tentacle lodged in her rear end straight up.
"Now then, time for today's gacha pull..."
Whoosh.
Lucifer spread her legs in an M-shape toward me. This was an assertiveness and boldness I'd never seen from Lucifer before, and I wondered what could have possibly happened in the span of a single day.
"What's gotten into you?"
"I'll do my best. I'll produce a high-grade stone no matter what and repay your grace, Master. So please, just don't put me back in the roots... hic."
