Arthur and Koneko's Contract / Training Koneko

This was a tea ceremony he had learned from Robin, Erica, and Liliana, and his skills had long since reached the highest level.

Upon hearing this, the Koneko Toujou didn't look at Arthur with a wary gaze, despite their interactions over the past few hours.

There was no aura about this person that she found repulsive; on the contrary, he possessed a charm that made people want to like him.

Her demeanor was gentle and refined, and her tea-making skills were comparable to those of Senior Akeno. It seems she had encountered a very good customer.

"Um, sorry to bother you!" Koneko Toujou glanced at the alarm clock on the wall and realized that it was still past the end of the workday; she probably still needed to rush another order.

Without refusing, he quickly drank the black tea in his hand and dragged his dusty body toward the newly cleaned bathroom.

After a long while, the clean-looking Koneko Toujou emerged, dressed in the uniform of the Kuoh Academy.

The uniform was still the same, but all the stains on it had disappeared.

"Another cup!" Arthur tossed a clean towel to the Koneko Toujou and then waved the teapot in his hand at her.

Koneko Toujou instinctively caught the object thrown to him, and his expression faltered slightly.

She glanced at the towel in her hand, then at Arthur, who had thoughtfully brewed her a cup of hot tea. A glimmer of light appeared in the otherwise emotionless eyes of the Koneko Toujou.

With a slight smile playing on his lips, he walked over to Arthur while drying his hair.

"Senior, this is for you." Arthur, who was making tea, heard a pleasant voice that wasn't as cold as before.

Looking to the side, I saw the Koneko Toujou, its cheeks flushed red from the hot water, emitting wisps of mist, looking incredibly cute.

She wiped her shoulder-length silver hair with one hand, and handed Arthur a devil flyer with the other.

This is a flyer exclusively for the Koneko Toujou!

Clearly, it was Arthur's considerate behavior that had given Koneko Toujou a slight liking, and she would definitely consider him a long-term customer.

"After all this work, what kind of reward do you need?" Arthur picked up two cups of black tea, handing one to Koneko Toujou and taking a sip himself, asking with a hint of teasing, "It's not going to be the price of having your soul taken away, is it?"

Chapter 374 Arthur's Contract with the Koneko

"Take away a soul?" The Koneko Toujou seemed oblivious to Arthur's sarcasm, shaking its head and saying calmly, "Demons grant wishes only for a fee of equal value. I only expended a little effort; the reward isn't substantial."

"All you need to do is give me something, senior! Money or goods are both fine."

Demons help humans fulfill their desires simply to perpetuate the myth of demons.

After all, whether it's a god or a demon, they would die without humans.

"Is that so?" Arthur responded with a smile, "But after keeping you busy for so long, it's really not fair to just give you some money and things to get rid of you."

"Koneko, come with me for a second."

Arthur suddenly stood up, looked down at the Koneko Toujou and stroked its hair, then walked towards the stairs to the second floor.

"A strange senior..."

Being patted on the head so affectionately by someone she was meeting for the first time, Koneko Toujou was subconsciously taken aback. Strangely, she didn't feel any resistance. Then, looking at Arthur's back, she couldn't help but mutter to herself.

But I followed them anyway.

The two went to a large gym on the second floor.

Arthur looked at Koneko Toujou, who was staring directly at him, and asked, "Koneko, since demons exist in this world, there must also be gods, angels, Fallen Angels, and other mythological beings, right?"

"Hmm." A hint of doubt appeared in Koneko Toujou's beautiful eyes, but she still nodded.

A sense of unease finally crept into his mind; this customer was indeed different from the others.

So calm!

If it weren't for the fact that it didn't have the aura of any other race and was just a simple human, Koneko Toujou would have already made her move.

"Since demons, gods, angels, and Fallen Angels exist, there must be hatred and war between them. You demons must also have enemies, right? Do you fight often?" Arthur continued to ask patiently.

"Yes! But it's a ceasefire now, and our job is to clear out the Stray Devil... Senior, who exactly are you?" Koneko Toujou replied, finally unable to resist looking directly at Arthur with a wary gaze, and asked in a deep voice.

"Don't be nervous... I'm just giving you payment!" These three words entered Koneko Toujou's ears like a gentle breeze, and a stunningly handsome face came into view.

Those emerald green eyes held a hint of indifference.

Despite being less than half the height of Arthur, she was able to look directly into Arthur eyes, not because Arthur crouched down.

Instead, her body had somehow floated into the air, and her smooth, jade-like neck was grabbed by a hand, lifted up, and pressed against a wall.

'Whoosh--'

The speed, almost imperceptible to the naked eye, and that indifferent gaze sent a shiver down the spine of the Koneko Toujou. She didn't even notice that the hand gripping her neck wasn't exerting any force. She raised her small fist and delivered a powerful punch to Arthur's face.

It was completely inconsistent with the power of a fist, and it sliced through the air.

'Snap--'

Faced with the incoming fist, Arthur released his grip and took a few steps back.

As soon as she landed, the petite Koneko Toujou leaped up and delivered another powerful kick to Arthur.

The lifted hem of her skirt even allowed Arthur to see her blue and white patterned panties underneath.

This time, Arthur didn't choose to dodge. Instead, he easily reached out and grabbed the leg that the Koneko Toujou was kicking at, and ruthlessly swung her aside and threw her away.

'Boom! Boom! Boom--'

The Koneko Toujou landed with a somersault, raised her fists and charged angrily at Arthur. Her pink fists glowed with blue and white Mana light as Arthur threw straight punches that crushed the air.

"It's powerful, but too monotonous." Arthur's amazing dynamic vision easily caught the Koneko Toujou's weakness.

With lightning speed, he reached out and swept his hand across Koneko Toujou's fist, grabbed her wrist and twisted it, instantly interrupting Koneko Toujou's attack. With a force that she could not resist, he spun her petite body around.

'Snap--'

As soon as the hand loosened, the Koneko Toujou landed and felt a sharp pain in her right knee, as if all her strength had been drained away, and she knelt on the ground on one knee.

At this moment, as she looked up at Arthur, her eyes were no longer wary, but filled with horror.

Monster!!

Koneko Toujou was very clear about the extent of her own power.

She is the reincarnation of the minister, a demon who has occupied the familiar castle of the "Rook" Evil Pieces. She receives a class-based bonus, which greatly enhances both her strength and defense.

She also didn't neglect her physical training.

But she was utterly powerless against this human.

The speed was unpredictable, and even the power was a fusion of skillful and precise strikes; a light kick was enough to paralyze his entire leg.

More importantly, this person did not reveal the slightest fluctuation of Mana when fighting her.

What does that mean?

He simply overpowered her physically, without any real intention of taking it seriously!

Thinking of this, a sense of despair instantly filled the heart of Koneko Toujou.

"What's wrong? What happened to your resistance just now?" Arthur slowly squatted down, reached out and lifted the Koneko Toujou's chin, asking with a light laugh.

At first glance, he looks like a bad guy revealing his true colors.

"Despicable..." Koneko Toujou stopped throwing punches, but glared fiercely at Arthur and uttered two words in a cold voice.

"Pfft... I'm not kidding anymore, get up!" Seeing Koneko Toujou's defiant look, Arthur couldn't help but laugh out loud. He reached out, grabbed her arm, and pulled her up, then bent down and picked her up with one hand.

The Koneko Toujou, who had been wrapped up and wanted to resist, was stunned by these words.

Seeing Arthur revert to his previous considerate, brother-next-door demeanor, Koneko Toujou was a little confused about this customer.

"Are you satisfied with the reward just now?" Arthur carried Koneko Toujou to a blanket and sat down, placing her on his lap. He reached out to rub her numb legs and, seeing Koneko Toujou finally showing her first hint of embarrassment and anger from being touched, slowly asked.

"..."

This sentence, as expected, stunned Koneko Toujou once again.

"I'm pretty strong, aren't I?" Arthur asked with a teasing smile.

"Hmm." Koneko Toujou nodded vigorously, then after a moment of contemplation, said, "It's simply not human!"

Upon hearing this, Arthur's smile widened, "As payment for your labor, you'll help me from now on! I'll train you, how about that?"

'Swish--'

The moment the words left her lips, a gleam of light shot out from Koneko Toujou's beautiful eyes.

"Contract established--"

The girl sitting on the boy's lap spoke with a firm voice.

Chapter 375 Training the Koneko

(This volume might be a bit long because I love this world so much.)

"Lighter, even lighter!"

'Snap--'

"Let's try again! Stand up straighter..."

Around noon, in a luxurious villa in Kuoh Town.

A calm yet authoritative voice rang out in the gym.

The Koneko Toujou, wearing a white sweater top and a slightly bulging bottom, was doing quick, stationary steps, her slender legs supporting two balls on her knees.

This kind of activity is difficult and challenging.

However, for someone with a strong nervous system, it is still within the realm of what is possible.

Arthur would naturally not use training methods that humans could employ to train Koneko Toujou, who was a reincarnated demon.

Therefore, every time the Koneko Toujou lifted its foot, Arthur required it to be at the same height and with the same force.

Moreover, her two slender legs had weights on her ankles.

"1289, 1290, 1291..."

Arthur sat on the sofa that Koneko Toujou had brought over, sipping his homemade black tea and reading books about the mythology of this world. Occasionally, he would look up at Koneko Toujou, who was already drenched in sweat, her blouse soaked with sweat and revealing two red spots. After sensing that her strength and breathing were somewhat disordered, he would remind her.

The mythological texts in his hands were naturally brought by Koneko Toujou.

Although it was unclear why Arthur wanted to see such things, the Koneko Toujou still brought them to him.

And it was taken from the minister.

This is the true classic of mythology!

And that was Arthur's true purpose.

Conceptual Enchantment onto Excalibur, it is no longer just a manifestation of the concept, but an existence no less than the real thing.

This is a "Sword of Wisdom" capable of severing divine status, an ability that Arthur uses as his trump card.

It can be said that the more comprehensive the knowledge base, the greater the power of this sword.

Therefore, Arthur needs to supplement his knowledge.

"2495,2496,2497,2498,2499,2500!"

Time passed little by little, and I don't know how much time had gone by.

After announcing an integer, the Koneko Toujou stopped.

"Wipe it off..." Arthur stood up, took a clean towel, and walked over to the Koneko Toujou, who was slumped on the ground.

"Senior, that's vulgar!"

Koneko Toujou took the towel from Arthur and was about to wipe her sweat when she suddenly realized that her private parts were exposed. Her face immediately turned red, and she quickly covered her chest, glared at Arthur, and said coldly.

'Snap--'
