I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 368 First round (46)

The only response that I could give was a surprised and confused look since I didn't expect this from Tammy.

After all, I really had no idea what she meant by this.

Was interesting a good thing or a bad thing?

Seeing that this was the response that I gave, Tammy revealed a faint smile as she said, "That is what I mean. This look of yours, it really is funny and interesting."

I was even more confused when I heard this, but I asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Tammy gave a nod before saying, "I won't lie, you've caught my attention more than I've thought and I'm acting on that now."

I didn't say anything as I just waited to see what she would say.

Tammy suddenly took a step forward towards me and said, "You're not dating anyone, right? If so, become my man."

My chin dropped the moment that I heard this.

I gave a gulp as I looked at her, as if trying to figure out if she was joking or not. However, from the look in her eyes, I could tell that she wasn't joking which shocked me even more.

She just silently looked at me, as if she was waiting for my response.

But what response could I give?

After a long silence, I took a deep breath to calm myself before saying, "Why? I don't think that there's anything that special about me, right?"

Tammy nodded before shaking her head as well and saying, "You can't say that there's nothing special about you. There's just this feeling that I get from you that you're different from other people. I think that's what attracted me to you."

Different from other people…

Well, I was certainly different from other people since I was the Demon King of Lust, but it wasn't as if I could just say that out loud.

I had thought about getting Tammy under my control as well before, but I had figured that it would be too much trouble at this stage. I had planned on becoming friends first and then working from there.

I never thought that she would be so direct that she would confess to me like this.

After some thought, I came to the conclusion that…

I couldn't accept this.

Even if I was beaten to death, I couldn't accept this.

After all, the moment that I did, everything would fall into chaos.

The careful balance that I had created would instantly be destroyed and many different things would come to light. Before I had prepared everything with the other girls, I couldn't gather more girls.

So I bowed my head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't be with you."

Tammy was genuinely surprised as if she couldn't believe that I would turn her down.

To my surprise, she suddenly brought her hands to her chest and pushed them up as she said, "Am I not beautiful enough? Or is it that I'm not strong enough? Not rich enough? I don't think there's a reason for you to turn me down, right?"

Beautiful?

She definitely was a beautiful girl with her long flowing red hair, piercing red eyes, finely carved face, fair skin, and her hourglass figure with just the right amount of curve in each place. Her chest wasn't too big and her bottom wasn't too wide, she had just the right amount of fat in each place.

This kind of beauty wasn't inferior to the other girls.

As for the other things that she listed, I didn't know too much about her, but I was sure that she wouldn't be lacking as one of the prized rookies of the Sol Warriors.

It was just that…

I shook my head and said, "It isn't any of that, it's just that I barely know you and I don't think that it would be right for us to go out. Maybe we should start as friends first?"

Tammy narrowed her eyes to look at me before suddenly saying, "It's because of those other girls, right? You're close to them?"

I couldn't help trembling when I heard this, but then I forced my face to be calm as I said, "What are you talking about? I don't know what you mean."

Tammy revealed a faint smile before saying, "There's no need to hide it, I can see how you treat them and how they look at you. I'm a woman as well, so I can understand how they feel."

I really was taken aback when I heard this.

I didn't really understand what she was talking about, but I could tell that it was quite impressive.

Still, I couldn't get sucked up into her pace, so I shook my head and said, "It isn't like that, we're just friends."

Tammy said with the same smile on her face, "Just like how you want to be friends with me?"

I couldn't refute this since I knew that it was a trap.

If I refuted it, it would be the same as admission through denial.

If I didn't refute it…well, I would be admitting it through silence.

So there was nothing that I could say in response to this.

Tammy didn't mind that I was silent as she reached out to pat me on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I won't be defeated. Let's start as friends and I'll take care of the rest. With me here, you don't need to worry about anything."

I really didn't know what to say, but at least she accepted that we would be friends.

That would at least buy me some time until I figured out what to do…

When we came back, I could feel three glares directed in my direction.

But Tammy was the one that met those glares as she looked at the three of them with a smile on her face.

All three of them were taken aback by this before glaring at me even more afterwards.

I just shook my head with a bitter smile on my face.
