"Now, write your name below mine. And there will be a thumbprint below that. Press your thumbprint on top of mine, Yuya. I have a needle ready. Scared of pain? Need me to help you? Hehe."

  "No, I'm good. Just need to sign here, right?"

  I gnced at the contract on the table. White letters lined the bck paper. Saeko Kurozaki's name was written in white, and I wrote my new name, Yuya Kurozaki. It felt strange to write a new name, but oh well. I didn't really pn on becoming her disciple. If it really is a shady company, I can always go back to the slums.

  I pricked my right thumb with the needle. It stung a bit.

  "...I just need to press it here in the end, right?"

  "Yes, press it there and you'll become my first disciple."

  The first disciple, huh. Is she really taking on a disciple for the first time? A bit unsettling. But for now, food and a pce to sleep are more important. I pressed my blood thumbprint on top of Saeko's blood thumbprint. Okay, that should do it...but then, the bck paper started to float.

  "What's happening? What does this mean?"

  "The contract has been sealed. Keep watching."

  The floating bck paper suddenly ignited, with bck fmes rising.

  "Whoa, you're not pnning to burn down the house, are you?"

  "It's okay, don't worry. There's more to come."

  After the bck paper burned out, a bck sphere appeared. It split into two and entered both mine and Saeko's bodies.

  "Something came in! What is this!? Hmm!?"

  I hurriedly touch my own body. Did something strange happen? Suddenly big sister hugged me, and with her breasts, I couldn't breathe...

  "I did it in one shot! Hahaha! Banzai~ Banzai~"

  "Hey, let me go, I can't breathe...!!"

  "Oh, sorry. I was just so happy, I couldn't help it."

  After catching my breath, I asked big sister,

  "...What do you mean by 'did it in one shot'?"

  "Well, taking on an apprentice isn't that easy. It also depends on compatibility with the witch. Usually, there are many cases of failure."

  "What happens if you fail...?"

  "Who knows. I've never done it, and the reaction to failure might vary depending on the witch, right? Since she is a bck witch, hmm... maybe being swallowed by darkness?"

  Hey! You should have told me beforehand! Being swallowed by darkness just from eating bread doesn't seem fair!

  "It's already successful. Don't think about failure. It's te at night, let's go to bed quickly."

  Ring ring ring! Ring ring ring!

  "Oh, I'll answer the phone. You go to the bedroom first, Yuya."

  "The bedroom?"

  I couldn't believe it, so I asked big sister again for confirmation.

  "Yes, yes, the room at the very back, Yami, show him. Okay~ hello~"

  While Big sister was on the phone, she fshed a 'V' sign at me.

  Meow~

  The president moved in front of me and turned towards the outside of the living room.

  "Is that what you mean by 'come with me'? Can this cat really understand human nguage?"

  The president stopped in front of the door of the room at the far end of the hallway.

  "Meow."

  "This must be the room. Bck door, no mistake."

  I opened the door and turned on the room's light. As expected, there were many bck things. I saw the biggest bck thing. I swallowed my saliva.

  "A big double bed... I wonder if I can perform tonight...?"

  Next to the bed was a dresser. Many cosmetics were lined up on the dresser.

  "Big sister is pretty enough without makeup. I wonder if she'll look even sexier with makeup..."

  Big sister still seemed to be on the phone. Waiting was boring, so I wandered around the room.

  "Oh, there's even a TV. It's big, maybe 50 inches."

  Since the room was big, there were a lot of furniture, and there was even a computer on the bck desk. The biggest piece of furniture in the room was the bck closet.

  "Big sister's everyday clothes are inside..."

  I swallowed my saliva again. I opened the closet. There were several bck suits hanging on hangers.

  "Is this a set of suits? Oh, there are skirts under them..."

  There were many bck skirts, so I tried taking a few of them up.

  "Short, this skirt... There's even one with a slit. But there are so many skirts, why were you wearing jeans at the bakery? Not bad though."

  Looking at the other clothes hanging on the hanger.

  "There's even a dress. Wow, is this dy a celeb? A dress with a slit."

  Gulp, imagining the dy in a dress, her slim legs peeking out from the slit... Where could she possibly be going in this dress? It's really intriguing.

  The next target is the bottom drawer.

  "No way..."

  Gulp.

  Opening the drawer, I find neatly folded underwear.

  "So many! Do all women have this much underwear?"

  I also open the drawer next to it.

  "All underwear... mostly bck. Seriously, a bck witch. Huh?"

  Suddenly, I notice the bottom drawer has four more drawers, all locked. I try to open one, but it's locked.

  "It won't open. Damn, I'm really curious..."

  I don't give up and try to open the remaining drawers.

  "This one and this one too, locked. What could be inside?"

  Finally, I open the st drawer.

  "It's open... alright, let's see what's inside! Ohhh!"

  I see the same underwear, but in various colors. Red, blue, white, pink, purple, beige...

  "Why does she have so many bck ones, huh? This lying sister. But there are a lot of thongs...hehe"

  "Yuya, are you already asleep?"

  Her voice approached. I quickly closed the drawer and shut the closet. I got onto the bed quickly.

  "Well, well, still awake I see. Waiting for me, huh?"

  As she entered the room, Big sister closed the door.

  "You haven't been rummaging through my things without permission, have you? Hehe..."

  "No, I would never do such a thing," I quickly lied.

  "Okay, I'm going to bed, turning off the light now."

  Moving to the back of the bed, I y down. Big sister turned off the light. The room went dark in an instant, still not accustomed to the darkness, I couldn't see anything in front of me. But I could sense Big sister approaching. Huh? I could hear the sound of fabric rubbing.

  "I'm going to sleep naked. Hehe. Getting into bed now," she said.

  I felt the bed shake. Now, there was a beautiful woman lying next to me completely naked. Can I sleep like this?

  "Goodnight. Sleep well. Children who sleep grow fast!"

  "Goodnight," I replied.

  Feeling a bit embarrassed, I turned my back to Big sister. After she fell asleep, I took a quick peek...

  "Yuya, Yuya..."

  "W-What!"

  "My first disciple, hmm, hmm... disciple number one... hmm..."

  I was surprised. It must have been talking in its sleep. Even so, Big sister fell asleep within five minutes. Amazing.

  "Good timing, a chance to get a good look at the breasts."

  Whether in the bathroom or just now in the living room, I couldn't catch Big sister's gaze and couldn't look at her breasts. Now is the chance.

  As I turned my body towards Big sister, she suddenly hugged me.

  "Hmm, hmm. You're my first disciple... hehehe~ hmm..."

  Big sister hugged me while she slept. My body couldn't move! Something fluffy was behind my head. Big sister's chin was on top of my head, her left leg wrapped around me. The most dangerous part was that her left hand was pced on my groin.

  "Is this heaven or hell?"

  But, being this close, I could really feel the warmth of another person's body. Surprisingly nice.

  Ah, I can hear Big sister's heartbeat.

  Thump, thump, thump.

  I feel strangely at peace. My eyelids feel heavy. Today has been quite eventful. Maybe it's the first time in my life I'm able to sleep so comfortably... I've had many first experiences in life today....
