Lilith's POV
What a boring day, even Sakamaki hasn't co back yet. It's a bit late for him considering that loner don't even have friends.
It's been three weeks in the human realm for and since he got his first target. For it would've been re minutes if I was in hell, but ti passes differently in the human realm. Three weeks is a long ti for humans.
I'm doubting if he was the right person for this contract now. Maybe he is taking his ti because he knows how this is going to end.
The target's status deteriorated a few days ago. Her negative energy surged. I don't know what he is thinking.
That brat, I can't even read his mind. It's like he intentionally thinks about other stuff when he is at ho. I have to teach him a lesson.
I should check the target's status once more. I hope it didn't degrade any more than this. Because if the negative energy keeps increasing, after a certain threshold it'll be impossible for him to do it.
I was going to my resonance spell to asure the target's energy levels when I heard a loud thud on the main door.
I went to the main door and looked through the peephole as Sakamaki had instructed . But I couldn't see anyone. I opened the door.
I took off the chain lock and turned the knob, unlocking the door. I pulled it inside and a lifeless body of Sakamaki fell in front of my feet.
What the hell!?
I looked at his half-open eyes staring at before he lost his sense. What is happening? Did soone beat him? Is he injured?
Wait, I should let him inside first. I picked up his body with my left arm and placed him beside . Then I closed the door and carried him to his bedroom.
It was like carrying a lifeless corpse. Though I could tell his vitals were all normal, he was knocked out cold.
Though carrying a re human was not a tough job for . In terms of strength, we devils are of course superhumanly stronger relative to normal humans.
I laid him on his bed and then thought of a correct course of action. I tried to wake him up. I splashed a bottle of water on his face.
His eyes twitched and he slowly opened them while staring at with a blank stare. Our gazes t and I smiled at him. Now that he was in his senses.
"So Sakamaki-kun, any new updates on the target?"
"You self-centred bitch, let get my thoughts straight."
"I saved you and you called bitch? That's not very nice."
"You just splashed water on my face." It irritated him.
He sat up and loosened his tie with his left hand while he stroked his hairs with his right hand.
He looked at his left arm strangely.
"Is sothing wrong?"
"Oh wait, why were you knocked out? Did you get beaten?"
"Wait, first tell , how is it going with the target?"
I had so many questions in my mind that I just rapidly threw them at him. He looked at with his irritated eyes.
"I'll answer all your questions, Devil-chan." He sighed.
"But first I have sothing to ask you." He added.
It was weird. He rarely had questions for . Actually, this was the first ti he was asking sothing from . I was curious about what it could be.
"Yeah go ahead." I smiled.
He advanced his left arm towards . "I felt unbearable pain in my arm when I was coming back."
"So?"
"So? Tell what the fuck that was." He said.
"I don't know, maybe you hurt yourself."
"Are you useless?" He sighed.
How dare he call useless? I have never been offended by sothing so true.
"You dare call useless. I will annihilate your entire city." I said though I wasn't angry. He stared at .
"I'm not hurt. Neither do I play sports." He said.
"I can tell." We looked at each other.
He wasn't hurt, and he felt unbearable pain in his left arm. Let check the target's status. I think I know the reason for this pain.
"You're a left-handed person, right?" I asked him, and he nodded.
Evoca, this was my resonance spell. A magic circle ford around my right arm. The red light was illuminating the entire room.
Sakamaki was looking at in awe. I know he couldn't believe what was going on in front of his eyes.
The spell was successful and I got the results I wanted. The target's negative energy has decreased nearly to zero. In other terms, the vessel was nearly empty now.
"What was that?" He asked.
"A spell."
"No, I an what does it do?"
"It's a resonance spell. It helps track the negative energy of the vessels." He stared at without saying a word.
"Are you surprised?"
"Not much, ever you ca, I think nothing can surprise anymore." He smiled.
This is the first ti he has smiled in front of . Did he lose so screws making her fall for him?
"What?" He asked in his usual tone. Yeah, that's more like the Sakamaki I know. The jerk Sakamaki.
"Yeah, the pain in your arm. Let see your left arm."
He advanced his arm towards . I opened the button of his full sleeve shirt and tried rolling the shirt to check his shoulders, but they got stuck near his forearm.
"I can't fold this anymore, take off your shirt." He looked at in confusion.
"Ara, don't be shy, I have already seen you naked," I said. He was clearly embarrassed.
He stood up and took off his shirt. I examined his shoulder to find the thing I was searching for.

This was another spell that I used to check if he got the insignia from the contract or not and I was right. The red insignia was visible but on the top of his wrist.
This insignia was the proof of the contract accepting the person who was doing the contract. The insignia was red-eye.
In terms of hell, the contract accepted its monkey.
"Why did you make strip? It was on my wrist." Sakamaki was disappointed.
"Teehee!"
He stared at for a few seconds and continued asking questions.
"Glowing tattoo? I can't get a tattoo at high school you know." Sakamaki said, looking at .
"Don't worry, no one can see it. It's only visible on activating that spell."
"And what is this?"
"This is your reward for completing the first task of the contract."
"Reward? Interesting." He glanced at .
Sakamaki's eyes were always cold and calculating. He tries to read but gives up pretty quickly when he realized that I'm not a normal person standing in front of him.
"Completing the first task? So that ans I passed the contract, right?"
"Not precisely, try a bit more and Tomose will completely fall for you."
"A bit more? Didn't you say this mark was my reward for completing it?"
Shit, this guy always takes everything literally. I stuck in my own web of words. He was staring at . This guy is weird.
He was wearing his shirt again.
"Well, a bit more? I'll do it next week, don't worry Devil-chan." With that, he left the room and headed for his shower.
