Thanks to the gentle care that Linc gave Raina. Linc was relieved of the task of mopping the mansion's floors clean.
The zombies are doing his job now.
Linc had also repaired some broken electronic equipment with the mechanical skills he had just acquired. He could now relax in a cold room even though it was very hot outside. Air conditioners are the most useful creation of mankind.
Even though inside the library is now very messy. The zombies that were crushed there had already been taken away, and it was only a matter of waiting for Linc to tidy it up.
A random corpse in one of the rooms had also been cleaned up. For some reason Raina didn't want to take care of one of these corpses. Obviously, this is very troublesome for Linc.
Bury the corpse in the backyard using a shovel in both hands. Linc gasped with exhaustion.
"Let me put the finishing touches."
Picked up a boulder he found while on the road. Linc placed it on the grave, and wrote a few sentences in white chalk.
"[For someone that no one even remembers.]"
"Perfect."
Linc felt him was getting closer to becoming a real demon.
[Ding! +350]
[Ding! +350]

....
Get up from the ground and look at the mansion behind him. Linc watched Raina disappear behind the mansion's glass windows in a hurry.
Linc sighed.
"Gosh, what kind of sin did you commit to make my daughter hate you so much?"
Shaking his head helplessly. Linc saw the scorching heat of the sun, and he didn't expect it to be noon.
"Time to cook for lunch. Being human is such a pain."
Linc began to forget who he was.
Go back into the mansion and wash his hands thoroughly. Linc heard the sound of a chair shifting, and he ignored it.
"Meow~"
"Ah, hello Miss Kitty."
Turned around, and realized that Raina was sitting holding Miss Kitty in her arms. Linc could only shrug his shoulders.
"How many times have I told you. Her name is Jessi! J-E-S-S-I!" Raina said while lifting Miss Cat up high.
"Grumpy lady, attack her."
"HASHH~!!"
"Calm down bro!"
Seeing that Linc also wanted to pick up the white cat like she did, but was hit back by a sharp claw. Raina laughed cheerfully.
"Ha ha ha ha...."
Linc's face turned ugly.
"Hum."
He snorted in disgust. Linc adjusted the temperature in the fireplace, and began to fish from the refrigerator.
"Hey Raina, come here."
Looking at the Devil and tilting his head in confusion. Raina saw Linc holding a knife.
"Some fish have very many scales, but some are not like tuna. Depending on how it is cooked, we can remove these scales or not.."
Linc dropped he knife onto the cutting board very hard, and the tuna fish split into two halves.
Blood started seeping into the sink.
"So, what's your choice now. Cooking grilled fish or washing rice?"
Waited a few minutes to digest what the Devil had said to her. Raina points her finger at herself.
"Me? Cooking?"
"No, I asked Miss Kitty."
"Don't think I'm stupid! Cats can't cook!"
Seeing that Linc had turned around, and cleaned the fish's entrails slowly. Raina asked while playing her thumb.
"Why me?"
"Because you want to cook. NO, I want you to be able to cook too. The devil, always keeps his promises."
Having slightly flushed cheeks, Raina looked at Linc's broad back with a bit of awe.
"So are you going to grill the fish or wash the rice?"
Raina clenched her fists tightly: "Grilling fish!"
Hearing this, Linc sighed helplessly.
"Why not wash the rice? Isn't that easy enough? Please don't think you are so talented."
Raina gritted her teeth in anger. Green veins could be seen very clearly forming on she forehead.
"Devil, you're really underestimating my abilities aren't you? I'll show you how good I cook!"
"Even though you've never cooked in the kitchen?"
"Devil, shut up!"
Seeing the very high fighting spirit bubbling up in Raina's body. Linc smiled gently.
"Understand."
"What's Understand!? You're trying to make fun of me again! Don't laugh!"
Put the half of the tuna into the metal roasting net, and handed it to Raina. Linc washed he hands, and began to wash the rice slowly.
Raina saw the tuna in the roasting net, and she felt that this fish could only be eaten by one person.
"You do not eat?"
"Not."
Grilled the fish over the coals of the fireplace linc had lit. Raina grilled the fish in a bit of a daze.
"Hey Raina."
"Hmm?"
She saw the demon mask that was again staring at his face. Raina felt that the devil must be looking at her seriously.
"Why don't you put out the fire?" Linc asked confusedly.
"Eh, eh?!"
Holding Raina's slender hand. Linc raised the metal roasting slowly.
"Grilling means using the heat of a fire to cook it until it's cooked. If a fish is devoured by fire, it's called burning."
Raina's face suddenly turned red. She felt Linc's face was too close.
"Don't be shy about just this. Put out the fire, and re-roast the fish with only coals of fire. Remember, if a fire comes back soon, put it out immediately."
Raina nodded her head very quickly. She heartbeat was beating so fast that it made his knees weak.
"Good, good girl."
"I'm not your daughter!"
She brushed off Linc's hand that was gently stroking her hair. Raina recovered her normal status.
"You're quite rude. Didn't anyone teach you some manners?"
"The devil doesn't need to thank you!"
Seeing that Raina had returned to normal. Linc couldn't help but sigh with a smile.
"Raina..."
"WHAT!!?"
Looking at the demon who had turned his back, and washed the rice once again. Raina looked at him with a look full of anger.
"From now on, I'll teach you to cook every morning. I'm just warning you that there's no turning back after this."
"I-I know..." The angry expression on Raina's face subsided, and she looked to the side in embarrassment. Somehow his heart felt very warm.
"Also, I might be able to eat after a few days of rest. So when that time comes, I hope to be able to eat the dishes you made."
"Let's eat together later."
She wiped the tears that had gathered in his eyes, and Raina smiled sincerely at Linc.
"...Haha, of course! I'll cook a good cooking for you!"
"I will wait."
