This was the decisive, definitive difference between the two situations, an absolute reality that could not be changed under any circumstances.
And more importantly, if it was the current Nezuko...
She was completely legal!
Li Ke thought to himself as he continuously channeled his life-force energy into Nezuko's body.
At the very beginning, he truly hadn't intended to provoke or mess with Nezuko. But since she had actively crawled into his bed on her own, he naturally had no other choices left.
Besides, this wasn't like Amane Ubuyashiki's situation—which would have been an unappetizing "buy one, get four off-limits attachments" deal. This was a magnificent beauty who could switch between a mature woman and a cute girl!
Li Ke felt incredibly excited. As for Nezuko, she subconsciously wanted to get even closer to him. Driven entirely by her survival and feeding instincts, she reached out and grabbed his hand—which was currently resting on her chest, right over her heart—and stuffed his fingers straight into her mouth.
However, she didn't bite down. Instead, she began to slowly suck on them.
It was exactly like an infant suckling to obtain milk, trying to use the suction to increase the amount of food she could pull in.
Li Ke instantly became wide awake. Especially when he felt the sheer force of Nezuko's suckling, he became completely "energized" and raring to go.
Energized in every single sense of the word!
Yet, staring at Nezuko's completely innocent face and her current, entirely oblivious sleeping expression, Li Ke's conscience began to ache slightly, and he forcefully strangled his intrusive thoughts.
This was the perfect opportunity to test whether a demon like Nezuko could truly be nourished by his essence.
Just as Li Ke subconsciously withdrew his hand, Nezuko's small, soft body instinctively followed, moving with fluid grace. Before he could react, she had climbed onto his lap, her delicate frame settling against him. Her plump, springy little bottom pressed down directly onto his hardened length, causing his thick shaft to slide smoothly between her smooth thighs until the swollen head rested firmly against her soft, warm belly.
The sensation was exquisite.
Her small, supple abdomen rose and fell gently with every breath as she continued drawing life force from him. Each subtle movement caused her soft belly to glide and press against the sensitive tip of his cock, creating a warm, teasing friction that sent waves of pleasure through him. The contrast between her innocent appearance and the intimate way her body was rubbing against him was incredibly arousing.
Li Ke couldn't help but imagine how it would feel if that same gentle, instinctive motion were applied elsewhere. Her small, agile tongue — currently licking and teasing his fingers in that pure, instinctive way infants use to stimulate milk flow — would feel utterly heavenly wrapped around his length. He pictured her soft, wet tongue swirling around the head, gently grinding and caressing every sensitive ridge, all while her pure, slightly dazed eyes looked up at him with that innocent expression.
The thought of corrupting such purity stirred a powerful, almost irresistible urge inside him.
It was truly demonic temptation at its finest.
However…
Nezuko had not yet given her consent to go any further.
Right now, she isn't even his woman yet!
He couldn't touch her!
He absolutely could not touch her!!!
"Arghhhhh!!! Curse my damn conscience!!"
Li Ke slammed his fist angrily against the floor beside him. Whether it was Mitsuri Kanroji, Kanae Kocho, or Amane Ubuyashiki, it was precisely because he possessed too much of a conscience that none of them had truly become his tonight!
Only at a time like this, when his veins were burning with pure lust, did Li Ke realize just how much of an eyesore his own morality was!
How great would it be if I had a power that made me lose my mind to desire, yet somehow guaranteed I remained completely conscious!
Li Ke slammed the floor once more in pure fury, feeling like an absolute weakling! If he didn't even possess that kind of power, what right did he have to be a harem protagonist?
Harem-man, Harem-man (singing in a Devilman cadence)...
I want to be a harem protagonist, damn it!
Li Ke smashed the floor beside him yet again in rage, and this time, actual flames erupted from his hand!
Within those flames, arcs of lightning even began to crackle!
Yes, Li Ke's sheer, unadulterated fury had caused him to spontaneously unleash lightning—the very element that symbolized conflict and wrath!
Right at that moment, however, Nezuko's body suddenly shrank down once more. Li Ke instantly recognized what this meant: the life energy he had injected into her had reached its upper limit, and she now needed to undergo a further evolutionary breakthrough.
Consequently, her body shifted into the form of a child under eight years old, though her mouth was still wrapped around Li Ke's finger.
However, this time, she could no longer evoke any primal urges within him.
Because if it still evoked an urge, he would be looking at a literal execution.
Witnessing this sudden transformation, Li Ke's mood instantly evaporated, and any lingering physical tension completely vanished!
Although the biological "long spear" of his body had not fully subsided yet, the metaphorical "spear" in his heart had completely cooled down!
"Damn it!! My conscience! Can't you just go offline for five minutes?!"
Li Ke slammed his fist against the floorboards once again in pure fury, causing the entire wooden floor of the building to shudder from the impact.
Unlike the protagonists of typical battle shonen manga, Li Ke's explosive rage did not grant him a sudden power-up. Instead, it successfully woke up the rest of the house.
"Are you ever going to sleep?!"
Mai Shiranui threw the door open in a fit of rage. Ever since the evening started, Li Ke's room had seen a non-stop revolving door of guests, completely ruining her night's rest. However, the exact moment she spotted Nezuko curled up in Li Ke's embrace—and saw the distinct suckling motion of her mouth—Mai's expression turned remarkably grim.
In particular, when she noticed that Li Ke's hand was still resting directly on Nezuko's buttocks, she silently reached into her cleavage and drew her signature folding fan.
Then, watching Li Ke frantically scramble to lay Nezuko down—which fully exposed his still highly aroused and excited long spear—she tightly balled her hand into a fist.
Li Ke naturally caught on to her homicidal aura.
"Wait a second! This is a total misunderstanding! The only reason my hand was on her butt and the only reason I'm hard is because she was literally a fully grown woman just a few seconds ago!"
Before Li Ke could even finish his desperate explanation, Mai delivered a vicious kick straight toward him.
"Just die, you lolicon! Personality Correction Kick!!"
"I am not a lolicon!"
Mai's foot flew straight toward Li Ke's exposed spear, giving him zero time to gently tuck Nezuko into bed. Left with no other choice, he instantly let go of the girl. Nezuko fell headfirst onto the floorboards, sliding face-down onto the tatami mat where she lay completely motionless.
Li Ke swiftly reached out and caught Mai Shiranui's slender ankle, using the momentum of her charge to pull her straight into his arms.
However, Mai was far from surrendering. In one fluid, practiced motion, she twisted her body mid-air, using her exceptional flexibility to reverse their positions. Li Ke was caught off guard and pulled down to the ground with her.
Mai landed on top, a triumphant smile blooming on her lips as she prepared to pin him and strike at his head.
But in that exact moment…
She sat directly onto his hardened length.
The thick, scorching head of his cock pressed firmly against her most intimate place, separated only by the thin fabric of her clothing. The sudden, intimate contact made the air between them freeze.
Mai's eyes widened in shock, her mouth falling open in a silent gasp. She could clearly feel the impressive size and heat of his arousal pushing insistently against her soft, delicate entrance, the fabric doing almost nothing to dull the sensation.
Li Ke, lying beneath her, stared up at the famous kunoichi. Her flushed cheeks, slightly parted lips, and the way her voluptuous body was straddling him created an irresistibly erotic sight.
Before she could scramble away in embarrassment, Li Ke's strong arms wrapped around her waist, holding her in place. His gaze lingered on her full, red lips for a moment before a mischievous idea sparked in his eyes.
"Say… could you help me with something?" he asked, his voice low and suggestive.
He glanced downward meaningfully, drawing her attention to his throbbing erection that was still pressed hotly between her thighs, the tip nudging insistently against her covered entrance.
Mai's face burned an even deeper shade of red as she realized what he was implying. Her body remained frozen on top of him, the intimate pressure between her legs making her heartbeat thunder wildly in her chest.
