I Became the Demon King of Lust

My arms were wrapped around her and my hands were holding her hands as we held the bow together.

There was a blush that appeared on Claire's face along with that look of shock.

It was as if she couldn't believe what was happening right now.

But I calmly said, "Alright, hold it like this and see if it's good for you."

However, Claire was just in too much of a daze to hear me properly.

When I held her like this, the people who had been following us suddenly reacted. Many of them revealed disappointed looks when they saw this which confused me, but I went along with it.

Holding her like this, I turned Claire around so that they would be able to see me holding her like this properly.

I even said by her ear, "Alright, now just point it in that direction and pull on the bowstring to see how it feels."

At this point, Claire was like a mechanical puppet in my hands.

I made her point the bow at the ones that were staring at us and then I had her pull the string back as if she was about to shoot them.

I wanted to use this as a threat, but I didn't expect the reactions that came from the watchers.

It wasn't looks of fear or looks of disappointment, these were looks of heartbreak that I just couldn't understand at all.

I had wanted to put pressure on them by having Claire pull back this bowstring like this, but it seemed like something else had happened. I just didn't understand what they were planning to do.

I had thought that they were trying to get Claire and me to fight to ruin the relationship between our group, but that didn't seem to be the case…

After watching for a bit, those that had been watching turned and left with hurt looks on their faces.

This just confused me even more…

But at the very least, they were leaving us alone now.

Once they left, I released Claire's hands and moved away before saying, "Alright, how do you feel about this one?"

Claire was still in a daze when she heard this, but there was a trace of disappointment that could be seen in her eyes.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, I said, "If it doesn't seem right, how about we look at some oth…"

"This one, I'll take this one." She decisively cut me off.

I was surprised by how firm the tone of her voice was when she said this.

It was as if she would broker no argument on this matter.

So I just gave a nod as I said, "Alright, if you like it, then you should get it."

Claire gave a nod before happily holding the bow in her hand, even though she hadn't bought it yet.

As she held it in her chest…it went right between her breasts, accentuating them.

Her figure definitely wasn't small, so seeing them being pushed out against the bow like this really was stimulating.

But I forced myself to remain calm as I said with a cough, "You should go and pay for that bow, or else someone else might take it."

She jolted out of her daze when she heard this and quickly went off to pay for the bow.

I couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief as I saw her go.

The rest of the date went as normal.

Since they had left us alone, I was able to easily input the suggestions into Claire as we went about the store.

When it was all done, the way that she acted around me had changed slightly.

She acted more subserviently.

It was just small things in her actions that showed this, but for the most part she still acted the same.

As we were about to leave the store, Claire suddenly said, "Um, actually I bought something for you as well."

I was surprised to hear this and I turned around to see what it was.

Claire pulled this thing out from behind her and presented it to me.

I was surprised to see what she had pulled out.

It was a gun, but it wasn't just any gun.

It was the mana gun that I had seen earlier.

Claire saw the surprise on my face and she said with a happy smile, "I saw you looking at it earlier, so I figured that you wanted it. I just wanted to give you a small thank you present from coming shopping with me today."

There was a warm feeling that filled my heart when she took this gun out, but there was also a feeling of guilt that filled my heart…

That was because I had only come out with her because I had wanted to use her…

In a sense, I was stepping on the feelings of this innocent young girl.

So it could be said that I was a bad person.

But I still said with a smile, "No problem, it was fun. We should do this again sometime."

Claire's eyes immediately lit up when she heard this as she said, "Really? Do you mean it?"

Seeing her like this filled my heart with even more guilt, but…

I had already committed myself to doing this, so there was no turning back now.

Even if I felt guilt, this was something that had to be done.

I steeled my heart and said with a nod, "Of course, we're friends and you're important to me. I'd be happy to hang out again with you."

This time, Claire's eyes dimmed a bit as she whispered in a disappointed voice, "Just friends, huh?"

But then she invigorated herself again as she said, "Sure, I would love to hang out again with you."

Then in a softer voice, she said, "How about we go to another place like an arcade or the aquarium next time."

This was basically asking me out on a proper date, but I gave a nod in response that caused her to reveal a bright smile.

I was already committed, there was no guilt to be felt.
