I Became the Demon King of Lust

The dynamic of our team…did improve, but it still wasn\'t as good as it could be.

There was some form of cooperation between Claire and Long Shui Ling, but it was still far from full cooperation where they fully trusted each other.

It still seemed like there was some kind of competition between the two of them.

Long Shui Ling even found me secretly to say, "You really are popular, aren\'t you?"

But of course, I acted completely oblivious to this.

For now, this was the best that we would get, so I would just accept it.

After all, there was something more important to do right now.

I would have to handle the case of Hayato\'s handler, Motoyasu first.

After another normal day in the dungeon, we were about to separate before I called out to Hayato.

"Let\'s go and have a talk. There\'s something that I need to discuss with you."

When he heard this, he couldn\'t help looking at me with a shocked and confused look.

It was the same for everyone else that was still here, they all looked at me with the same shocked and confused look before looking at Hayato with concerned looks. It was almost as if they were kids who were looking at another kid who had just gotten in trouble.

After a moment of silence, Hayato asked, "Is something wrong? Is there a problem that you need to call me out to talk alone?"

He was very confused as he said this.

After all, he couldn\'t think of a single reason why he would be called out like this.

He hadn\'t caused any trouble with their party, so it shouldn\'t be him who was getting called out. If anyone should be called out, it would either be Claire or Long Shui Ling.

Or if he wanted to talk about something between men, it should be both him and Blaze, right?

So it didn\'t make sense to call him out alone.

I could see the doubt in his eyes, but to avoid creating suspicion with a certain someone, I just said, "I have something that I need to talk to you in private about."

Everyone couldn\'t help knitting their brows when they heard this.

Long Shui Ling suddenly came forward and said, "If there\'s something private that you need to talk about, you can come talk to me."

Claire narrowed her eyes when she heard this.

Then as if not to be outdone, she also came forward and said, "I can talk to you too if you need something."

Both of them turned to glare at each other after she said this.

At the same time, Blaze and Qin Yue Ru also walked over with concerned looks before saying that they both could talk if I needed to.

But I just shook my head and said, "There\'s something that I need to talk about with Hayato. I hope that you will respect that."

When I said it this seriously, they all couldn\'t help being caught off guard.

In the end, it was Hayato that said, "Alright boss, that\'s not a problem. If you have something private you need to talk about, then we can talk."

The others all nodded as if they were respecting my decision.

This was their first time hearing me talk in this serious tone since our first time in the dungeon, so they couldn\'t help feeling a bit afraid. It was still a trauma that was on their minds the entire time.

Hayato\'s handler Motoyasu was about to leave, but I quickly came forward to take him by the shoulder as I said, "I also need to have a talk with you."

Motoyasu couldn\'t help knitting his brows when he heard this, but since I had trapped him, he had no choice but to follow us in the end.

I also had Su Chen follow us just in case anything happened, but it didn\'t seem like it was necessary.

I was able to bring the two of them to an isolated place before letting go of Motoyasu.

When Hayato saw the place that we had come to, he couldn\'t help feeling a bit worried.

Though he had faith in me that I wouldn\'t do anything, this seemed a bit too suspicious. After all, this was the typical place where one would be brought to be murdered…

So Hayato couldn\'t help asking, "Boss, what do you need to talk to me about?"

Motoyasu also moved away from me and created some distance with me, as if he didn\'t trust me.

But then again, how could he have trusted me with the way that I had treated him?

Su Chen came up behind Motoyasu to prevent him from moving back any further.

I looked at Hayato and said, "Well, it\'s not so much as having a talk with you as having a talk with him?" I pointed at Motoyasu as I said this.

Hayato revealed a confused look when he heard this before turning to look at Motoyasu.

Motoyasu was already trembling when he heard this, but he still managed to say, "Mister Lin, what do you mean by this? I don\'t remember having done anything to offend you?"

I raised a brow and said, "Is that so?"

Motoyasu knitted his brows even more when he heard this, but he said, "Mister Lin, what do you mean by that?"

I suddenly revealed a smile and said, "What if I said something very interesting."

Motoyasu had the same confused look when he heard this.

"Amaterasu."

The moment that I said this, that confused look disappeared and there was a hostile look that appeared on his face.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly said, "It seems that you\'ve dug too deep haven\'t you? You\'ll regret that now."

With a snap of his finger, there was a group of dark clothed figures that appeared around us.
