She twisted her hips as if to say what lay below that skirt refused to settle down.

“Come to think of it, he did Miss B and Miss C at the same time in that grownup form.”

“Really?”

“It was awful, Miss A. That version of him was like an incarnation of lust, so he did it with those two until they passed out. I was certain he was going to move on to me next, but he said it would be too awkward doing it with me and moved on!”

“Did you want him to do you?”

“No, I wouldn’t say that! But I didn’t like being the only one he turned down either! …Of course, that was about when we went to the HQ to pursue Jiyuuni-san’s group, so there wouldn’t have been time regardless,” she grumbled. “I really thought I might finally lose my virginity.”

“You could just go over and ask him, you know?”

“I couldn’t possibly! I’m his teacher!”

She had some sense as far as that was concerned, so she shook her head.

But that did nothing to get rid of her womanly desires, so her mind kept turning toward her skirt’s contents.

Miss A shrugged in an exasperated way.

“…”

Then she reached for her chest.

“Hm.”

She now had a much bigger and adult body and she had just noticed her nipples were erect.

Her adult body was reacting to the sexual situation in a way her child’s body never had.

“Well, this is interesting.”

“What is?” asked Miss D.

“Oh, nothing. Anyway, has heaven contacted us yet?”

“Let me check…oh, they just did. Jiyuuni-san…Ange-san has apparently just returned to earth. I will send Miss E to meet her.”

“I see. In that case…”

“Yes, it is time for Miss E to get to work.”

Adolescent Adam 9: Chapter 8 – Adolescent Adam

Up in heaven, Michael was removed from her mission on the surface.

Ange was allowed to remain the Fujita boy’s bodyguard and Rapha was already working to assist her, so no additional angels were sent in.

Lilith was imprisoned in heaven.

Detaining the mother of all demons would destroy the power balance between heaven and hell, so she would eventually be released, but only after an agreement was reached between those two realms.

Preparations would take a century, so she would not leave heaven during Mutsuki’s lifespan.

Mutsuki was allowed back home that day.

There was not much risk in returning to his family home now, but he returned to that apartment because that was what he was used to. The demons had calmed down, but there was still a chance some stray demon would attack, so heaven and FeTUS had recommended he stay there.

He had returned to his life at the apartment.

The biggest change was Micha’s absence, and…

“H-hello.”

“This is your home now, isn’t it?”

“Positive. That is correct.” Machina set down her large bag and nodded. “I-I am home.”

“Welcome home, Ibekusa-san.”

Heaven had sent a traitor like Micha, but they still had control of Fujita Mutsuki.

As a compromise, FeTUS had suggested that Miss E, aka Ibekusa Machina, move in with him.

That allowed heaven and the human world to share the boy and placed them on equal footing, which was awfully convenient for FeTUS. Heaven had no choice but to agree after the fiasco with Micha.

Hell was left out of that agreement, but hell had never been one for obeying rules. Lucia was not remotely hesitant about visiting.

The only real change to Mutsuki’s life was trading Micha for Machina as a roommate.

“God, this is why I hate you humans. We make one teensy mistake and you take us to the cleaners over it.”

“Calm down, Ange.”

“Just so you know, Ibekusa, no matter what heaven might say, you have to follow my rules if you’re going to live with me. Upset me and I’m kicking you out!”

“Understood.”

Ange was more opposed to the change than anyone.

However…

“That’s so good!”

“Wow, it really is. And it has plenty of vegetables for proper nutrition.”

“…I see.”

Machina made them dinner that day, but…

“I didn’t realize you could cook, Ibekusa-san.”

“I learned the other day.”

For the first meal cooked there in around two weeks, they had a homecooked meal of crab fried rice, stir-fried vegetables, soup, and ginger pork.

Machina made it all.

Ange mumbled quietly with the spoon still in her mouth.

“W-well, we did cause you a lot of trouble and I wouldn’t want that conflict to drag on needlessly. You can stay here.”

“I am glad to hear it.”

They reached an agreement quick.

That was a relief, but Mutsuki was more surprised by Machina’s unexpected special skill.

Since she claimed to have learned to cook “the other day”, she could not be all that accustomed to it, yet her skill was impeccable. Was this some kind of witch’s power? He had the skill built up over a decade of cooking for his family, but she seemed to have surpassed even him.

That may have been the biggest change with her replacing Micha. Whenever Micha was in charge of a meal, she would provide burgers wrapped in paper adorned with the letter M.

“I can do all the cooking. Is that okay with you?”

They had no objection to Machina’s suggestion.

Mutsuki had always been in charge of the housework here, so he was happy for the extra time and the improved food quality. Although he did wonder if he would know what to do with himself during the newfound free time.

“That sounds good to me,” he said. “Oh, but I’ll help out too of course.”

“Yes, I do want to eat your miso soup again.”

The two of them came up with some rules while washing the dishes afterwards.

Machina would generally be in charge and Mutsuki would help if he had the time.

“I’m surprised you eat so much, Ibekusa-san. You only eat a single apple at lunch.”

“That is sufficient if all I need is the energy.”

“So you were enjoying the food today?”

“Positive.”

He thought he would be more nervous having a classmate suddenly become a roommate, but the atmosphere was light as they stood side by side washing dishes. It probably helped that the two of them were already close.

“…”

FeTUS’s ultimate objective was to impregnate her with his semen, so she had come here for that purpose.

That part of it made it hard to calm down, but…

“Hmph.”

From Ange’s perspective, they looked like a newlywed couple.

“Um, where do the dishes go?”

“I’ll put them away. Since that requires more muscle.”

“Really? Okay.”

Once the washing was done, Machina returned to the living room alone.

“Hmph.”

Ange greeted her with a sullen look.

“Is something wrong? Did you not like the food?”

“The food was fine.”

“I really would prefer you tell me if you didn’t.”

“I said it was fine.”

“If my cooking upsets you, then you can ask Fujita-kun to cook for you starting tomorrow.”

“I said the food was fine.”

“I am sure he can cook those inventive but nutritious dishes of his for you again.”

“Wait, no! Don’t make me go back to that!”

That natural contrarian would often refuse to say anything when she was upset, but she had trouble with Machina’s type of honesty. She had no choice but to sigh here.

“Weren’t you going to confess to Mutsuki?”

“Um.”

“…Ibekusa?”

Then she noticed Machina’s flushed face.

Her usual lack of expression made this change hard to miss.

“Um, well.”

“?”

“…”

Machina nodded just a little bit.

“N-now is not a good time. I should wait until I have settled in more.”

“Are you scared?”

“Whose fault do you think that is?”

Ange put on a lopsided frown.

She was not sure what she had done to deserve this, so she could only puzzle over it.

Machina had been acting weird ever since the resolution of that incident – when she had been taken into that young man and Ange had shaken off Lilith to bring back Mutsuki – but Ange was not sure why.
