A clap of thunder breaks the silence, lightning briefly illuminating the rows and rows of books in your library. You chuckle a bit. “A dark and stormy night, perfect!” In front of you lies a small chest no bigger than the tomes that surround it. Finally your master plan would come to fruition!
Running my hand over its scuffed surface I cursed those who had handled it in the past. Blast those mail people. Couldn’t they treat anything gently? It DID have fragile stamped all over it. What would they do if they broke it? After all you spent a whole two weeks’ worth of your salary on the item.
Still you couldn’t hold back your excitement as you broke the seal. A tiny holographic succubus popped into view. While she was endowed with the wonderful curves all her kind had between her rather large glasses and frumpy sweater she couldn’t help but look a bit bookish.
“Greetings valued customer of the Mail Order Mamono Service! I am the 42nd daughter of the Demon Lord, Yomiko.” The tiny succubus gave a victory jump and spread her lily white wings. “Thank you for buying our latest product the Literary Lover Crystal. With this stone infused with my demonic energy you can bring to life your favorite wifu from any book you choose. Truly this is a modern miracle a dream come true! Just rip a page that only has her on it, picture her in your mind’s eye and rub or smash the crystal over the page. Of course there are a few rules for using the crystal.”
She stuck her finger up at me as if I was getting lectured and ticked off the points “1. You must choose a page that only has your target on it. 2. Her personality and other character traits will heavily depend on your visualization of her so be as clear as possible. 3. Of course as with any summoning with demonic energy the person that is created with the magic will be a mamono even if they aren’t in the story, so make sure to enjoy it.” She gave a wink that looked like she intended to be sultry but failed utterly. “And 3. Once the crystal is used there are no refunds or getting rid of the girl. After all it doesn’t matter that they were created three seconds ago they are people too so treat them well. Enjoy your new life!”
With a small flash of light the Lilium disappeared leaving behind a red pulsating crystal on a velvet bed.
