It was Sunday, a week after my first date with Jessica, and I was currently using magic. My family went out and I was the only one at home, so I stayed in my room and drew a magic circle on the floor with magic power.
"Come out… You little demon…"
In response to the powerful words I uttered, the brilliance of the magic circle increased. Then, a green object rose from the centre of the magic circle.
When the object reached a height of about fifty centimetres, it stopped there. At the same time, the brilliance of the magic circle lost its light and disappeared.
What remained was something green and humanoid. People familiar with light novels and games might call it Goblin.
"It's a success. For my purposes this time around, I'll need at least this much summoning magic."
***
Summoning magic.
It is magic to summon otherworldly things. The higher the mastery over the magic the more powerful beings you can summon, but as you would expect, I have not yet mastered that level of magic.
The small demon I summoned this time is of a low level. It doesn't seem to be useful in combat at all, but other abilities could be used.
As a feature, first of all, it is invisible to humans who have not practised magic. Furthermore, it looks like a spiritual body and does not have a materialized body.
Thanks to this, it is possible to pass through walls and temporarily materialize its body if it consumes magical power. I can also communicate with it telepathically, so I can know its current location.
"Hey, can you hear me?"
'I can hear you, Master.'
"Hmm… Nice. First, follow me."
'I understand.'
I left the house a little bewildered by the words that reached me directly in my brain, not as a voice. The first thing I did was check if we could communicate telepathically and if it could be seen by others.
'Goblin, follow right behind me.'
'I understand.'
After confirming the small demon was following my instructions, I headed to the nearest station. The place we were heading to was the town where I went on a date with Jessica.
***
As I headed for my destination on the train, I lowered my eyes while sitting on the seat. There, the legs of the man standing in front of me overlapped with the small devil.
As I reconfirmed that It could not be seen and that it had not materialized, the train began to slow down and we arrived at the destination station. When I got up from my seat and started walking towards the door, the little devil followed me with a bouncing walk.
The reason I came here today is to find a woman in a kimono that I met on my date last week. After that, I intend to let the little demon stalk her and find out where she lives.
I searched while wandering around matching the place and time. I couldn't find her easily, so I took a break and bought a drink from a vending machine to quench my thirst.
Then, the same woman, dressed in a different kimono from last week, was walking on the other side of the road. I hurriedly threw my empty can in the trash and followed her so as not to lose sight of the woman.
After coming to a position about 5 meters behind her, I gave an order to the small devil.
'Goblin, follow that woman.'
'I understand.'
The goblin went right behind the woman in a kimono. The woman will not think she has a stalker on her and will lead it to her home.
'Follow along and wait at the house where the woman fell asleep.'
'I understand.'
This should reveal her home. Today's schedule ended successfully, and I headed home with a smile on my face.

And the next day is Monday. Although I started going out with Jessica, our relationship in the classroom hasn't changed in particular, and no one knows about it.
I haven't attended the fortune-telling club either because senior Margaret seems troublesome. Occasionally, I exchange glances with Jessica and simply enjoy our secret relationship.
We have a second-semester final exam next week, so there will be no dates or anything like that. However, we have agreed to study together somewhere on Saturday.
When class was over and it was after school, I rushed to the station. The place I'm aiming for is where the small devil is now.
***
The house was located within walking distance of that station. Even I, an ordinary high school student, can tell at a glance that the land prices are high.
"Wow… This is a mansion…"
While retrieving the small demon, I saw the house of the lady in question and naturally spoke up. Seeing the house was surrounded by a splendid fence, I knew that it was likely to be worth millions.
"This house seems to have solid security."
There is a high possibility that I will not succeed if I do not act carefully. I decided to leave quickly today, thinking that I would first get some information from the little demon.

This week, I had fun in the sex room with Isla and Charlotte once on weekdays. And Saturday would be an exam study date with Jessica.
As a result of discussing where to have the study date, it was decided to be her room. It seems that this is because she is concerned about other people's gazes in libraries and the like.
If it's my house, I'd send Kojina-san home after we're done, but she doesn't want to trouble me. So the only option left is Jessica's house.
On that day, I was invited to my girlfriend's house for the first time, so I was nervous. On my way, I bought several kinds of cakes at a popular pastry shop as souvenirs and arrived at my destination in the morning.
I contacted Jessica on the way, so she will meet me in front of her house.
"Good morning, Ethan."
"Jessica, Good morning."
"Today, it's just my mother. My father and my brother are not here, so relax."
"…I think I feel less nervous when your father isn't around."
As far as I can see from the outside, her house is two-story and of a reasonable size. Her family is a family of four, so the house should be spacious enough.
"Sorry to intrude."
"Yes, come in."
"Ah, this is a souvenir."
"T-Thank you. Even though you shouldn't have…"
"It's fine."
Invited into the house while conversing, I followed Jessica and was taken to her mother in the living room.
"Sorry to bother you, Ethan."
"Welcome. It's been a while since the sports festival."
"Yes."
"Mother, this is from Ethan."
"Oh my, thank you. Let's have it during the break."
"Then I'll go to my room. Let's go?"
"Understood. Then, excuse me."
"Yes. Study and do your best."
Leaving the living room, Jessica went upstairs. When I followed her to the second floor, she explained the place to me.
"This is the toilet, so feel free to use it."
"I understand."
"This is my brother's room, and this is mine. Well then, come inside."
As I finally entered her room, thinking to myself how exciting it was to share a bedroom with Jessica, her room turned out to be a typical girl's room dominated by pink colours. It had a sweet scent different from the rooms of the lewd crest slaves I had been in before.
"…For the first time, a boy has entered my room…"
"…What about your brother?"
"My younger brother is not included."
Jessica gave me a wry smile while urging me to sit on the cushions placed around the table. She sat facing the door, and I sat opposite her.
"Phew… Shall we have a little chat first?"
"Yeah, sure."
"Then, I'll prepare drinks. Is hot coffee okay?"
"Ah, thank you"
"Yes. Please wait a moment."
Saying it in a playful way, Jessica left the room. She seems pretty trusting to leave a high school boy alone in her room by himself.
"Love…huh?"
While it may seem understandable to succumb to temptation as we are lovers, I still wouldn't go as far as rummaging through the tall chest in her room.
Of course, it would be unthinkable to check inside the small drawer that likely contains her underwear. Naturally, I wouldn't bury my face in her bed and inhale her sweet scent to my heart's content.
"…All my thoughts are perverted."
Eventually, I intend to have a naked, intertwined relationship on this bed, but it's not time yet. Let's enjoy our sweet relationship as a couple, keeping it innocent for the time being.
Besides, I already have partners, Isla and Charlotte, with whom I can have daily sex to relieve my pent-up sexual desires.
