The Life of Lust Demon

Chapter 25 Luna's Shyness



Anos was initially perplexed by Luna's expression. Why the surprise? He touched his own face, wondering if he had suddenly become handsome.

But Luna's next words left him stunned. Her beautiful face flushed pink as she whispered, "Little Anos, I know men have certain... needs, but using that?" Her voice trembled, her eyes fixed on the sofa.

Anos's confusion deepened until he followed Luna's gaze. His eyes widened in mortification as he took in the Love doll, its presence suddenly intensely embarrassing.

"Fuck!" Anos's face burned with embarrassment. "No, Luna, you misunderstood!" he protested, desperate to clear the air. His hands rose in defense, as if to physically push away the misconception.

Luna's face turned a deeper shade of crimson, her eyes darting away, unable to meet Anos's. The tension was palpable.

Just then, the System chimed in, its voice dripping with amusement:

"'Ding... successfully made Little Big Sister shy. Scumbag Man Points + 10000."

....

Luna approached, her face still flushed, and began to tidy up the Love doll's disheveled clothes. Anos had previously examined the doll for any suspicious mechanisms, leaving its attire in disarray.

However, in Luna's eyes, the doll's state was simply scandalous. "Little Anos, having a girlfriend is wonderful. But using...this?" Her voice trailed off, her face burning with embarrassment.

As Anos's sister, Luna was still a maiden, and her inexperience made her unease palpable. Anos struggled to find the right words.

"No..." he started, flustered. "I swear, I didn't...I have no idea why this doll was outside our house. I was just curious, so I brought it in."

Luna's gaze lingered on the doll, her cheeks aflame. "Be honest, Little Anos. Is it really the same as having someone?" Her question hung in the air, innocent yet probing.

Anos's discomfort deepened. How could he explain the System's bizarre reward or the doll's mysterious appearance?

Anos scrutinized Luna's expression and realized she didn't believe him. God! What could he do? In Luna's eyes, her innocent little brother had transformed into a reprehensible man!

Luna's serious face made Anos's heart sink. "Little Anos, I'm not judging you," she said, her voice measured. "I understand men have certain... needs, and I won't condemn you. But please, don't lie to me. If it's yours, own up to it."

Anos felt a surge of desperation. How could he convince Luna of his innocence? The System's meddling had landed him in this mess.

"Luna, I swear on my honor as a martial artist, I have no idea where this doll came from!" Anos protested, his hands clasped together in supplication. "I'm not lying, I promise!"

Luna's skeptical gaze lingered, her expression unyielding. Anos knew he had to think fast, or risk losing his sister's trust forever.

Anos felt like crying, but his eyes remained dry. "It really isn't mine..." he pleaded.

Luna raised an eyebrow. "Really?"

Anos's desperation turned to fervor. "I swear, I, Anos, would never resort to using a doll, even if I were desperate. I promise!"

Luna's face flushed crimson, her expression a mix of embarrassment and amusement. "Nonsense," she muttered, shaking her head.

She knew Anos too well. Logically, if he were truly desperate, finding a girlfriend wouldn't be challenging for him. Why would he need a doll?

Luna's gaze softened, her skepticism waning. Maybe Anos was telling the truth. Maybe this was just a huge misunderstanding.

"Okay, fine," Luna said, her voice gentle. "I believe you. But where did this...thing come from?"

Anos exhaled in relief, grateful Luna trusted him again. "I honestly have no idea. I found it outside our house."

"I'm going to cook," Luna announced, heading to her room to change into comfortable clothes.

As she changed, Luna's mind wandered back to her conversation with Sofia, Anos's teacher. Sofia had expressed concern about Anos's unusual behavior.

"Luna, I need to discuss something with you," Sofia had said, her voice laced with concern. "Anos's recent medical checkup at the Academy revealed some... irregularities."

Luna's curiosity was piqued. "What kind of irregularities?"

Sofia hesitated before speaking. "Anos suffers from erectile dysfunction. And, quite frankly, he shows little interest in girls. It's unnatural for someone his age."

Luna's eyes widened in surprise. "Is it treatable?"

Sofia nodded. "Yes, but it requires a delicate approach. Sometimes, all it takes is a spark to ignite interest. I recommend encouraging Anos to explore relationships or, at the very least, expose him to... feminine influences."

Luna's face flushed at the suggestion. "You mean...?"

Sofia smiled discreetly. "Tight clothing, for starters. Or, if possible, finding a suitable girlfriend. The goal is to stimulate his natural instincts."

Luna recalled Sofia's words as she tied her apron strings. She couldn't help but glance at Anos, still sitting in the living room.

Their earlier conversation about the love doll flooded back, and Luna's cheeks warmed. Could Anos truly be struggling with these issues? She pushed the thoughts aside, focusing on cooking.

As she chopped vegetables, Luna wondered if she should broach the subject with Anos. But how could she approach such a sensitive topic?

The sizzle of vegetables in the pan filled the silence, accompanied by Anos's muffled muttering from the living room.

"What's wrong, Little Anos?" Luna called out, her voice gentle.

Anos's response was inaudible, but Luna sensed his frustration. She made a mental note to speak with Sofia again, seeking guidance on how to support her brother.

...

Anos turned to glare at the doll, his face ashen. "Damn it!" he cursed, his reputation shredded by a ridiculous misunderstanding.

Fueled by rage and embarrassment, Anos grabbed the doll and hurled it off the balcony.

"Hey! Who dropped this thing from upstairs?" a furious shout echoed from below.

Anos slammed the window shut and collapsed onto the sofa, seething. He was fuming.

"This System is ridiculously deceptive!" Anos muttered, punching the couch cushions. The roulette wheel's twisted sense of humor had landed him in this mess.

As he lay there, Anos's mind replayed the events. From the doll's mysterious appearance to Luna's misunderstanding, everything conspired against him.

"Why me?" Anos groaned, burying his face in a pillow. His day had started with the System's cryptic message, and now this.

Just then, the System chimed in, its tone nonchalant:

"'Ding... successfully shifted host's reputation. Chaos Points + 5000."

Anos's frustration boiled over. "Shut up!" he yelled, tossing the pillow at the wall.

...

Anos's frustration slowly gave way to reflection. He pondered his own attributes, crucial for mastering martial skills.

Most martial skills possessed specific attributes – thunder, fire, ice, or wind. Each attribute dictated the type of skills a cultivator could unleash. For instance, a thunder attribute allowed only thunder-type skills.

Attribute-based martial skills were generally more potent than non-attribute ones. However, Anos's unique situation wasn't entirely hopeless. While he couldn't learn attribute-based skills, he could still master non-attribute ones.

Fortunately, the Sky Martial Court taught mostly non-attribute martial skills. Anos's current abilities weren't impaired.

As for his attributes, Anos remained optimistic. "There must be a way," he thought. "A living person can't suffocate from urine." Nature wouldn't abandon him without a solution.

Anos's determination reignited. He would explore every avenue, uncovering methods to overcome his attribute limitations.

The System's silence was almost palpable, as if awaiting Anos's next move.

With renewed resolve, Anos rose from the sofa, ready to tackle his challenges head-on. The path ahead wouldn't be easy, but he was determined to forge his own way.

"Let's give Little Fairy two Experience Fruits first," Anos thought, considering Luna's well-being.

Luna had never ventured out to hunt monsters or learned combat skills. She focused on working and improving her life.

However, Anos felt responsible for her safety. With his abilities, he wanted to empower Luna to protect herself.

"Once she has a realm, she'll be safer outside," Anos reasoned. His concern wasn't unfounded; Luna's stunning beauty attracted unwanted attention.

Anos's remaining Scumbag Points sufficed to exchange for two Experience Fruits. Though insufficient for his own level-up, 2,000 Experience Points would significantly boost Luna.

The Experience Fruit requirements differed vastly between them. Anos needed 3,000 points to advance from one-star to two-star in the Spirit Focus Realm, whereas Luna could level up with 2,000 points.

With a thoughtful expression, Anos decided to prioritize Luna's growth. He would secure her safety, even if it meant delaying his own progress.

The System, silently observing Anos's actions, chimed in:

"'Ding... host prioritizes Little Fairy's growth. Relationship Points + 1000."

Anos smiled, knowing his decision was worthwhile. Luna's happiness and safety were paramount.

....

Anos entered the kitchen, two Experience Fruits in hand. "Little Fairy, I've got something special to show you."

Luna turned, her eyes narrowing playfully. "Little Anos, how can you say such things to me?"

Anos's confusion deepened. "What do you mean?" He scratched his head.

Luna's cheeks flushed pink. "You said it yourself," she whispered, her voice laced with teasing innocence.

Anos's face lit up with realization. "Oh, you thought I meant...?" He chuckled, holding out the Experience Fruits. "Treasure, as in these!"

Luna's relief mixed with amusement. "You silly brother." She smiled, taking the fruits.

Anos grinned. "Eat these, and your realm will advance. You'll be safer outside."

Luna's eyes sparkled with gratitude. "Thank you, Little Anos."

The System chimed in:

"'Ding... host strengthens bond with Little Fairy. Relationship Points + 500."

Anos gently placed the Experience Fruit before Luna's lips. She opened her mouth, and he fed it to her.

"What's this? It tastes weird," Luna said, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

Anos smiled affectionately. "My special gift."

Luna's cheeks flushed as she realized the intimate gesture.

The System chimed in:

"'Ding... successfully made Little Big Sister shy. Scumbag Points + 50,000!"

"Anos!" Luna exclaimed, her voice tinged with embarrassment.

Anos's warm gaze met Luna's, his expression softening. He savored the tender moment, his heart swelling with affection for his sister.

The System's announcement faded into the background as Anos focused on Luna's radiant smile.

...

Luna's angry gaze locked onto Anos, but her expression suddenly froze. Anos sensed an unexpected shift in her aura.

His Spiritual Eye flashed, detecting Luna's level skyrocketing to Qi Building Stage 3!

Anos's eyes widened in astonishment. "Incredible!" he thought. "This is even better than farming monsters!"

Luna's lack of battle experience was a concern, but her newfound realm provided ample protection.

Luna's surprise mirrored Anos's. "I... how did I level up?" she stammered, her face aglow with wonder.

Anos smiled, relieved that Luna was now safer. "That's the power of the Experience Fruit," he explained.

Luna's eyes sparkled with curiosity. "What's in that fruit?"

"That's why I called it a treasure," Anos said, feigning hurt. "You didn't believe me, and you scolded me. Sigh... I feel wronged."

Anos sniffled, exaggerating his injury.

The System chimed in:

"'Ding... successfully made Little Big Sister blame herself. Scumbag Points + 30,000."

Anos thought, amazed, "Who knew making her feel guilty would earn Scumbag Points?"

Luna apologized, "Okay, okay, I misunderstood. I thought it was..."

Anos's curiosity piqued, he asked, "What did you think it was?"

Luna's face flushed crimson as she hesitated.

The System announced:

"'Ding... successfully made Little Big Sister shy. Scumbag Points + 10,000."

Anos's eyes sparkled with amusement, intrigued by Luna's unspoken thoughts.

Luna hastily added, "Nothing!"

Anos's grin widened, enjoying their playful exchange

Anos handed Luna another Experience Fruit. "Here, have this one too."

Luna took a deep breath, her eyes narrowing. "Little Anos, don't you need to kill monsters to level up?"

She scrutinized Anos, suspicion etched on her face. "What did you give me to eat? How can I level up just by consuming it?"

Anos chuckled, his eyes sparkling with amusement. "That's the magic of Experience Fruits. They contain condensed experience points."

Luna's curiosity deepened. "Experience points? You mean like the ones from killing monsters?"

Anos nodded. "Exactly. These fruits allow you to level up without the risk of battling monsters."

Luna's gaze lingered on the Experience Fruit, then shifted back to Anos. "Where did you get these?"
