A Late-Night Talk with Koneko / Koneko's Hurt Feelings

They actually mistook her for Nami!

Speaking of which, Kuroka Toujou's boldness is indeed very similar to Nami's back then. Arthur just now gave him a chop because he saw Nami's shadow in Kuroka Toujou.

"Let's stop joking! My name is Arthur Pendragon, let's get acquainted." To cover up a non-existent awkwardness, Arthur extended his right hand to Kuroka Toujou with a slight smile and introduced himself.

Arthur had a lot of goodwill towards Kuroka Toujou.

This fondness naturally stems from my understanding of the original work, and also from the fact that she is the older sister of my own Koneko.

If possible, he would very much like to help the two sisters clear up their misunderstanding and allow them to recognize each other as sisters.

"I have a good feeling about you. It seems my Shirone has found a very good master." Looking at Arthur's smiling face, Kuroka Toujou put away her playful posture, reached out and held Arthur's hand, and said with a charming smile, "It would be even better if you could have a dragon child with me."

"Are you really not going to see the Koneko?" Arthur ignored the last question and asked again.

"Forget it, given my current status, it's not appropriate for me to see her!" Kuroka Toujou shrugged, saying nonchalantly, "Knowing she's doing well is enough."

"On another note..."

Then, Kuroka Toujou looked at Arthur meaningfully, suddenly a blue-white glow enveloped his body, emanating a terrifying Mana aura, and he said with a dangerous smile, "Aren't you afraid of me? I'm the 'Stray Devil'!"

"This is too fake..." Arthur stared at Kuroka Toujou for a while, then said calmly.

"Huh...?"

"Huh...?"

This inexplicable comment caused the Blue-White Light around Kuroka Toujou to dissipate. He tilted his head slightly, his two cat ears twitching slightly, and looked at Arthur with a puzzled expression, completely bewildered.

"Anyone or any force that harbors ill will towards me will be detected by me." Arthur looked at Kuroka Toujou and said calmly, "This is my innate Instinct!"

"I see. So, does that mean my (bidf's) acting wasn't up to par?" Kuroka Toujou stroked his chin, nodded seriously, and reflected on his actions.

"Do we need to fight?"

Arthur's lips curled into a slight smile. Suddenly, he reached out and placed his hand on Kuroka Toujou's smooth, fragrant shoulder. A golden glow emanated from his body as he chanted:

"--I am the strongest, to seize all victories. Man and demon, fallen angels and gods—all enemies, I will defeat all those who harbor hostility. Therefore, I will break through all obstacles in my path! World, turn for me, open the battlefield of great achievements, and present the victory that is within reach!--"

"Whoosh--"

The arrogant Word of Power of certain victory descended, and the golden glow surrounding Arthur transformed the surrounding environment into a golden battlefield filled with golden light, like an unfurled scroll.

The azure sky of daytime has transformed into a star-studded night sky.

The park and grove of trees have been transformed into a desolate battlefield with towering rocks.

The earth was painted with the color of gold.

A battlefield brimming with fantasy and epic grandeur is now presented!

Arthur could easily guess what Kuroka Toujou was thinking.

Taking the postgraduate entrance exam is one thing, but it also serves as a test of Arthur's abilities.

They probably wanted to know if Arthur was qualified to be the owner of the Koneko Toujou, or if he had the ability to protect his younger sister.

Arthur didn't dislike her quiet concern.

Coupled with his fondness for her, Arthur didn't mind taking the initiative to demonstrate his strength.

The ability to create an alternate dimension in an instant did indeed startle Kuroka Toujou, who had never witnessed such a scene before, and a look of shock appeared in her beautiful golden eyes.

Seemingly feeling that the scene wasn't impactful enough, Arthur continued chanting:

"--Guardian of justice, I invite and dedicate myself to you. Guardian of the righteous, I praise you and make my wishes to you. One who rules the sky and expands the earth, one who grants victory and grace, I will act with justice; grant me the right path and the light! With the power of Word of Power, I will punish the unjust and the wicked! This is the divine law of victory!--"

"Boom--"

The black sky obscured the stars, and endless thunder roared incessantly, turning the entire golden battlefield into a world where gold, blue, and white intertwined.

At this moment, Kuroka Toujou felt like a Koneko in a doomsday disaster, trembling with fear.

Chapter 450 A Night Talk with the Koneko

"This..."

A deafening roar echoed in his ears as he looked at Kuroka Toujou, who stood against the backdrop of Blue-White Light on the golden earth, Arthur beautiful golden eyes filled with barely suppressed awe.

Her strength is far greater than Rias's; she is at least at the highest level, or even at the level of Demon King.

That's why she was able to perceive Arthur's power and terror more clearly than others at this moment.

"Want to have a fight?" Arthur's hand on Kuroka Toujou's shoulder tightened slightly, pressing her left shoulder a little further away. His teasing voice slowly brought Kuroka Toujou back to her senses.

Looking at the playful-smiling boy before him, Kuroka Toujou couldn't help but give an awkward smile. She then reverted to her previous charming demeanor, resting her chin on her hands and softly saying, "How could I possibly be a match for the great 'Red Dragon Emperor,' meow~"

"Click--"

As her voice faded, "The Victory's Golden World" emitted a clear sound that masked the thunder.

A silvery-white crack appeared in the surrounding world, spreading in all directions and transforming into endless radiance.

In the next instant, the apocalyptic scene returned to the park and woods as before.

It was as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

But only Kuroka Toujou knew that the place they had just been in was indeed a man-made alternate dimension.

The boy before me, who had concealed his aura, possessed the immense power to easily create a "world" and control the weather.

Thinking this, the pitiful look on Kuroka Toujou's face vanished, replaced by a look of infatuation and fascination. She stared at Arthur as if he were a rare treasure, licked her red lips, and said, "You're just too perfect. I'm increasingly wanting to have a dragon child with you."

"It's getting late. If you don't want to fight, then let's call it a day!" Arthur ignored the hunting gaze of Kuroka Toujou, looked up at the Sun that was already setting behind the western mountains, and said to Kuroka Toujou with his eyes down.

"Goodbye, meow~" Kuroka Toujou didn't stop her, but waved to Arthur, her beautiful eyes narrowed like a well-behaved cat saying goodbye to her owner.

This appearance is remarkably similar to that of Koneko Toujou. If it weren't for Kuroka Toujou's hair color and clothing, as well as her curvaceous and well-endowed figure, which contrasted sharply with Koneko Toujou's, Arthur would have even thought he had said goodbye to Koneko Toujou.

However, it is indeed because of this sense of incongruity.

This is why Arthur didn't have any ill feelings towards Kuroka Toujou from the very first moment they met; on the contrary, he had a very good impression of him.

Arthur's encounter with Kuroka Toujou was merely a minor interlude.

But this incident sparked a thought in Arthur's mind.

He wanted to help the sisters Kuroka Toujou and Koneko Toujou, get back together and be as good as before.

Arthur is a very easygoing and lazy person; in layman's terms, he's "addicted to laziness."

It was this very personality trait, which even spiritual elevation could not erase, that turned him into someone who regarded power and wealth as worthless.

He rarely does something voluntarily, and whenever he does, it means he has his own purpose.

This kind of initiative was very common in Hai Jilan Yong. At that time, he was still weak and in order to complete the system's "Achievement Quest", he fully Awakening the three Noble Phantasm.

However, in the world of the Fourth Great Holy Grail War and God Slayer, Arthur's initiative became very minor.

Now, his mind is starting to wander again.

This time it's for my adorable pet!

Night falls, and the sky is dotted with stars.

Although this world is a modern metropolis, the environment is completely free of pollution, allowing you to see the beautiful starry sky at night.

Tonight, unusually, I didn't see the couple having a heart-to-heart talk on the balcony.

The glass windows were tightly closed, and a light flickered through the hanging curtains.

In the luxurious and spacious master bedroom, two figures lay on the Simmons mattress covered with a luxurious purple-black quilt.

It was none other than Arthur and the Koneko Toujou, their main pet.

Arthur was wearing only a short-sleeved pajama bottom, his left leg slightly bent, his right ankle resting on his left knee, his emerald green eyes slightly narrowed, and a look of enjoyment on his face.

On his body, the Koneko Toujou, dressed in white underwear and pants, lay on his chest, a pair of white cat ears peeking out from her shoulder-length silver hair, her cute face flushed, and a stream of warm breath slapping against Arthur's body. She slowly licked and rubbed her cloves against his angular chest muscles.

"Koneko, I heard from Rias that you have an older sister, right?" Arthur placed his right hand on Koneko Toujou's head, his fingers running through her hair as he skillfully stroked his cat.

At this moment, his slightly narrowed eyes suddenly opened a crack, and he looked at the Koneko Toujou who was eating her favorite snack, and asked softly.

He didn't mention that he encountered Kuroka Toujou on his way back today.

Instead, they intend to use Rias as a starting point to guide Koneko Toujou to open her heart even further.

Chapter 451 The Wronged Koneko

"Elder sister..."

Arthur's question startled the Koneko Toujou, Toujou, who was licking his chest. She looked up at Arthur and asked in confusion, "Does Senior want to know about my sister?"

"Ah... is it okay?" Arthur said with a smile, gently stroking the Koneko Toujou's hair.

"Why?" The Koneko Toujou tilted its head slightly, a trace of something remaining at the corner of its mouth, and asked like a greedy and adorable Koneko.

Arthur's hand descended from the Koneko Toujou's head, slowly unwrapping its white garment. He gently squeezed its snow-white skin and chuckled, "Because... I want to know more about the Koneko!"

"..."

Arthur's words, "one, two, seven," indeed had an exponentially greater effect on Koneko Toujou.

Her lovely face flushed red, revealing a blissful smile. She couldn't help but nuzzle against his chest, letting out a tender meow. "Meow~"

"Koneko, can you tell me something?" Arthur played with the snow-white flake for a while, then hugged the Koneko Toujou's waist, looked down at her, and smiled as he repeated the question.

"Mmm..." Koneko Toujou, whose heart was already as sweet as if she had eaten honey, naturally nodded repeatedly.

Moving her body upwards, the Koneko Toujou hugged Arthur's neck, pressing their bodies together without any gap. She nuzzled Arthur's face as she whispered reminiscingly, "My sister and I were originally adopted by a branch family member of the Naberius Family, ranked 24th among the 72 Pillars of High-Class Devil in the Demon World! But after my sister became a familiar of High-Class Devil, her power surged rapidly. One day, she killed her master and escaped, becoming a 'Stray Devil'... And I was considered just as dangerous as my sister. When they were planning to get rid of me, Lord Lucifer suddenly vouched for me and sent me to the Minister's side..."

Koneko Toujou spoke softly, but these were only things she herself knew.

In reality, the father of the sisters, Kuroka Toujou and Koneko Toujou, was actually a human researcher in the secret research lab of the Naberius branch of the 72 Pillars of High-Class Devil, who was researching and creating Artificial Transcender.

For the purpose of the experiment, the father of Koneko Toujou and Kuroka Toujou chose the Nekomata, a Japanese yokai, and specifically the Nekoshou, the strongest of the three races, to mate with, resulting in the birth of the two sisters.

Their father only saw Koneko Toujou, Kuroka Toujou, and their mother as experimental subjects.

During a failed experiment, both of Koneko Toujou and Kuroka Toujou's parents died, and the two sisters were then adopted by the High-Class Devil behind the experiment.

Among them, Kuroka Toujou, due to his potential, was reincarnated as a familiar by the High-Class Devil Araboku using the "Bishop" from two Evil Pieces.

However, after becoming a demon, Kuroka Toujou's talent in sorcery and magic became apparent, and her power gradually spiraled out of control. She also learned that the High-Class Devil was still conducting experiments on the Artificial Transcender, and even her sister, Shirone, was preparing to harm her.

To protect her younger sister, Kuroka Toujou chose to kill her master and escape alone, becoming a "Stray Devil."

Koneko Toujou was unaware of her sister's sacrifices, but she never blamed her sister.

This is also a key reason why Arthur feels extremely fond of these sisters and wants to help them reunite and reconcile.

"Do you resent your sister?" Arthur listened quietly to Koneko Toujou's recollection, his hands already wrapped around her waist and resting on her neck and head.

Gently stroking his silver hair, Arthur looked at Koneko Toujou, whose eyes were red but who remained strong and did not shed a tear, and asked with feigned confusion.

"Mmm... mmm..." The Koneko Toujou shook her head, sobbing. Her pitiful expression made Arthur unable to resist wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, comforting her, "Don't say it, don't cry..."

"Mmm!" The Koneko Toujou pursed its lips and nodded vigorously, then rubbed its face against Arthur's, as if seeking comfort from its owner.

Arthur used his skillful cat-petting techniques to dispel the sadness and grievances in the heart of the Koneko Toujou.

Watching the Koneko Toujou's face gradually fill with happiness and enjoyment, Arthur continued his actions, but his eyes fell into deep thought.

My resolve to help these two sisters reconcile has only grown stronger!

Meanwhile, in the room next to the master bedroom.

A red True Magic circle appeared on the luxurious floor, and a woman with a mature figure appeared in front of Rias, who was studying.

Her long silver hair and maid outfit revealed her identity.
