Koneko Toujou / The Scheming Arthur and the Reward
One of the two rewards bestowed by the system.
The fusion of corresponding Authority can be considered a slight enhancement for Arthur.
At least the power system, and it's not that complicated.
"Ding! Main Quest One has ended. Main Quest Two will be released in seven days. Please prepare!"

..."
The sky was clear and cloudless.
The streets of Kuoh Town were bustling with activity, filled with cars and people.
This scene of a modern metropolis brought a smile to the handsome face of a young man who emerged from the alley.
His natural charisma made even the young women and girls walking by, whose lives had been thoroughly corrupted by the city, stare at him with shining eyes, stopping as if gazing at some priceless treasure, unwilling to move an inch.
Seemingly sensing the gazes directed at him, Arthur's smile remained unchanged, but his holy and noble demeanor was restrained. He stopped a passerby and asked about the largest Jewel Treasure store in the area.
Following the directions of the passersby, Arthur used his Observation Haki to quickly locate the largest Jewel Treasure store in Kuoh Town.
Arthur stepped into the Jewel Treasure store, and soon emerged accompanied by the manager.
And in his pocket, there was now a bank card belonging to this world.
Although there is no universal currency in this world, treasure is universally accepted in any world.
Unfortunately, Arthur's "Avalon" doesn't contain much else, except for the Jewel Treasure collected by Nami.
With just a small amount, one can exchange it for an astronomical sum.
After exchanging his money for the world's common currency, Arthur first went to find a place to change out of his pure white knight's outfit.
Because after he exchanged the currency, Arthur's Instinct (A) suddenly triggered a warning in the city.
Moreover, the air itself was filled with Mana.
Clearly, this is an urban superpowered world similar to God Slayer.
"Handsome young man, this is for you..."
After Arthur changed into ordinary clothes, he followed the warning from his Instinct (A) and went there.
Just as he was passing a fountain, he was suddenly stopped by a female demon cosplayer.
The female demon handed him a flyer.
Arthur reached out and took the flyer, then glanced at the female demon with feigned confusion.
"This is a flyer that can grant people's wishes." The female demon seemed to notice Arthur 'Arthur confusion and said something intriguing before walking away to continue handing out flyers.
This flyer was enough to make most people believe that the female demon was a real cosplayer.
Except for Arthur!
Except for Arthur!
He could indeed sense the presence of Mana in this female demon.
And there was no trace of human presence in them!
However, it lacks the repulsive evil aura of a demon, and its power fluctuations are relatively weak, seemingly only suitable for distributing flyers.
Relatives?
Familiar?!
Arthur pondered for a moment, then glanced down at the demon flyer in his hand, his brow furrowing as he murmured, "It looks familiar..."
A world where demons exist--
These familiar demon flyers—which world are they from?
Arthur stood there, lost in thought for a few seconds, still unable to figure it out, and temporarily suppressed his doubts.
I bought a cell phone first, and then started exploring the internet to get in touch with the world. I wanted to settle down somewhere first.
It took Arthur nearly three hours to finally purchase a luxury villa in a prime location in Kuoh Town, paying a large sum of money in full, and he moved in that same day.
However, since this luxury villa is still a few days away from being fully completed, it is still missing a lot of furniture.
Arthur had no choice but to buy a large amount of furniture again.
As dusk fell, Arthur refused to help.
The luxurious living room was filled with a large amount of extravagant furniture, waiting for someone to move it and beautify the spacious and empty room.
"Will you grant my wish?" Arthur sat on a single, soft sofa, took out the flyer the female demon had given him earlier, and stared at the True Magic circle on it.
Sure enough, there were specially written words in that True Magic circle.
"Interesting, it feels familiar, but I can't quite place it! What kind of world is it?" Arthur muttered to himself with interest, a faint smile appearing on his face.
'Swish--'
Just as Arthur was staring at the demon flyer in his hand for a moment, the True Magic circle inscribed on the flyer suddenly lit up with a dazzling red light.
Then an invisible force pulled at the demon flyer in Arthur's hand, as if trying to take it away from him.
Arthur frowned slightly and slowly released his grip.
The demon flyer slipped from his hand but did not fall to the ground.
Instead, it ignored gravity, floated directly into the air, transformed into a massive red True Magic circle, and landed on the luxurious floor.
Meanwhile, night had already fallen outside the villa.
It's time for the demons to be active!
A dazzling red light shone brightly in the villa, lasting for a short while before dissipating.
As the light faded, a petite figure came into Arthur's view.
She was a petite girl, about 13 or 14 years old, who looked like she was in elementary school or just starting junior high.
The fact that she was wearing a school uniform confirmed that she was indeed a student.
She wasn't even half as tall as Arthur; she was a short, silver-haired girl with shoulder-length hair, the same color as Athena's.
A black Koneko ornament was pinned to her temple, which, combined with her youthful face that was as expressionless as Athena's, made her incredibly cute.
"I see--"
The devil's flyer, Kuoh Town, the silver-haired girl, grant your wish... These words reappeared in Arthur's mind, finally reminding him what kind of world this was.
--High School DxD.
"Bite!...".
Chapter 373 The Cunning Arthur and the Reward
"Ding! You have successfully arrived at the new instance. Quests will now be assigned!"
"Ding!" Main Quest Two: Collect the first and strongest "Longinus - Twilight's Holy Lance" and enchant it with Conceptual Enchantment! Reward: --"
Almost the instant he confirmed the information about this world, Arthur heard the familiar system notification in his mind.
The new "main quest" made him purse his lips.
"Hello, I am Koneko Toujou! I have come at your summons to grant your wish!"
After the girl arrived, she didn't care about the crowded and messy living room. Instead, she looked at Arthur on the sofa and said in a cold voice.
At first glance, it looks as if Athena has followed along.
"Are you a demon?" Arthur snapped out of his daze, feigning confusion as he looked at the Koneko Toujou and asked.
"Yes."
'Smack!'
As if it had anticipated this, the Koneko Toujou suddenly unfurled a pair of black wings from its back. These wings resembled bat wings, or perhaps scythes with many sharp spikes.
It's not as evil as you might imagine!
Arthur discovered that after the Koneko Toujou spread its wings, its petite body emitted a dark elemental Mana.
That aura of the abyss was undoubtedly that of a demon.
"I never imagined the legendary demon would be so cute." Arthur couldn't help but smile slightly, looking at Koneko Toujou, whose expression remained unchanged despite his praise, and continued, "Then can you really grant wishes? Any wish!"
The last sentence clearly highlighted the key point.
The moment he finished speaking, seeing that Koneko Toujou had clearly understood his meaning and a hint of difficulty finally appeared on her face, Arthur smiled faintly and said, "It seems that I can only grant most of your wishes."
After hearing Arthur's words, Koneko Toujou's expression returned to normal. She then walked to a wardrobe, lifted it effortlessly, turned to look at Arthur, and said, "I'm very good at manual labor."
As if to prove her point, Koneko Toujou dragged the wardrobe up and down a few more times, but her petite figure didn't move at all.
That astonishing arm strength, so unusual for a little girl's size, certainly indicated she was very good at manual labor.
"Then, I'll have to trouble you to arrange these furniture for me," Arthur said with a smile, his legs crossed elegantly.
"Yes, the contract is established!" Koneko Toujou nodded, a smug smile spreading across her cute face as she celebrated another achievement in her business.
Afterwards, under Arthur's instructions, the Koneko Toujou moved the furniture that filled the entire living room, and began to beautify the spacious and empty living room, as well as the master bedroom, kitchen and other places, according to Arthur's aesthetic sense.
It wasn't until nine o'clock in the evening that Arthur, who was spotless, and Koneko Toujou, whose face and uniform were covered in dust, sat back in the brightly lit living room.
Arthur seems to have a hidden cunning side; he feels no guilt whatsoever about ordering around a little girl like Koneko Toujou, but rather is quite enthusiastic about it.
Not only did he not lift a finger, but he also made Koneko Toujou move the furniture up and down the stairs for him. After the furniture was arranged, he even made Koneko Toujou clean the villa for him.
Asking a little girl to clean such a large villa, without lifting a finger herself, would instantly lower anyone's opinion of the man, regardless of his appearance.
But Koneko Toujou didn't; she treated these things entirely as work.
It took almost four hours to get everything done.
"Koneko, is it okay for you to call me that?" Arthur, sitting on the sofa, unusually having a 'change of heart' and brewing a cup of black tea for the Koneko Toujou, asked with a light laugh.
"Um."
Holding a clean handkerchief and wiping away her sweat, Koneko Toujou nodded, picked up the black tea Arthur offered, took a sip, and then her emotionless beautiful eyes instantly lit up.
The taste of this tea is actually comparable to that of Senior Sister Akeno.
"Would you like to take a shower?" Arthur asked, crossing his legs and elegantly sipping his black tea.
