Chapter 1123 – You Smell Tasty
Lux's first thought was simple. 'Oh, it's working!' His second thought arrived half a breath later, wearing a suit, carrying a clipboard, and screaming.

Her hand slid to the back of his neck.

Lux fell forward into the crystal coffin.
Cyrinne made a strangled sound behind him. "Lux."

Lux landed half over the demoness, one hand braced beside her head, the other catching the coffin edge before his entire dignity collapsed into her chest. The crystal beneath them was cold. Her body was not. Heat bloomed from her like a slow infernal sunrise, ancient and deep, rolling through his spirit-form in waves that made every instinct in him go abruptly awake.
The demoness smiled wider.
Then kissed him again.
