Arcueid's Troubles / Cath Palug's Difficulties

Based on the information Gwen knew, Sayo Aika was clearly very good at creating mischief.

In this Type-Moon World, the advantage of information asymmetry only applies to Sayo Aika.

Therefore, if a consensus cannot be reached, all Gwen can do is ruthlessly destroy the flowers.

"What a terrible comment..."

"How could someone like Gwen possibly attract so many beautiful girls?"

Despite the aura that had locked onto her soul, Sayo Aika showed no sign of distress; her pink lips pouted slightly, expressing her displeasure.

"If you want someone to do something, you have to offer something that satisfies them, right?"

Elementary school students will even share their candy with others to campaign for the position of class monitor.

"..."

After exchanging a moment's glance with Sayo Aika, confirming that the girl's plaintive words were neither a joke nor a lie, Gwen pondered silently for a while before admitting that he might have been somewhat stereotypical.

Judging from the conversation just now, besides fairy tale-like love stories with Prince, the unknown is also something that Sayo Aika is looking forward to.

And this is precisely Gwen's biggest bargaining chip.

"We can't be misled by what Kihara Kishou-in said..."

Gwen silently reminded himself, then reached out and poured a cup of tea for Sayo Aika—

"Okay, I apologize for my previous arbitrary decision—"

So, Ms. Sajo Aika, the unknowns we can offer may exceed your expectations. Which one would you like?

Academic?

Artistic?

Thought?

Or is it about actions?

Chapter 562 Altrouge's Troubles

"Um..."

Faced with Gwen's offer, Sayo Aika appeared somewhat relaxed, her slender, fair legs crossed behind her desk, exuding a sense of contentment.

"Since it's described as unknown, how can it be considered unknown if I can make such a precise choice?"

"..."

Seeing that Sayo Aika looked like she was about to raise the price, Gwen raised an eyebrow but didn't object.

"Okay, as a small gift—"

As he spoke, Gwen raised his hand, and a beautifully crafted Jade Stone fell into his palm.

Golden light shimmered, and intricate and beautiful patterns appeared on the Jade Stone, attracting Sayo Aika's attention.

"I've stored some things here that might interest you, Miss Aika."

Following Sayo Aika's gaze, Gwen presented the Jade Stone to her.

"What a beautiful gift! Thank you Gwen."

Sayo Aika, like a naive girl who had received a favorite gift, happily accepted the Jade Stone from Gwen and played with it for a while.

However, after a moment, realizing that she couldn't extract the information from Gwen's words Sayo Aika looked up in confusion at Gwen, who was calmly drinking his tea.

"Gwen..."

"Exploring methods to extract information from it is also an unknown process, isn't it?"

Before Gwen Sayo Aika could speak, Gwyn chuckled and retorted.

"Snort!"

Sayo Aika a soft hum, not angry at all, but rather even more interested in the Jade Stone in her hand.

However, Sayo Aika didn't let Gwen so easily, looking at Gwen—

"Since I've already given you a gift, it would be reasonable for Ayaka to have one too, right?"

Gwen wouldn't want to see me and my best sister turn against each other over such a small gift, would he?

"Alright..."

Upon hearing this, Gwen nodded slightly, raised his hand, and took out another piece of Jade Stone, engraving golden patterns on it.

Compared to the one in the Sayo Aika, the patterns on this jade talisman are much simpler. Although it also has a unique beauty, it does not cause the dizziness that comes with staring at it for a long time.

Under Sayo Aika's gaze, Gwen put away the Jade Stone and stood up—

"Now that I've prepared a gift, I'll deliver it to Miss Ayaka right away—"

It's rather impolite of us to only offer a gift now that we've met for so long—"

After saying those words that left Sayo Aika stunned, Gwen had already left the study, leaving Sayo Aika with only his back view that showed no sign of lingering.

"Puff..."

A moment later, Sayo Aika twirling between her fingers, her eyes sparkling with a bright light—

"That's quite an interesting reaction..."

"Huh, for me?"

In the living room, Ayaka Sajou, who was carefully accompanying Altrouge while drinking tea, held the Sayo Ayaka and looked at Gwen with surprise.

"Yes, your sister just asked me for a gift, so of course I have to make it up to you too."

Gwen smiled and nodded, indicating that Sayo Ayaka could boldly accept the gift—

"It's not a valuable gift, just a protective jade amulet, a small token of my appreciation."

"Thanks..."

When Sayo Ayaka heard that it was because of her older sister, she breathed a sigh of relief and carefully put away the unexpected gift.

"Yes, you must have been quite frightened today. Go back and rest for a while."

As for the schedule, Arcueid needs a little more time to recover, so let's postpone it for now.

It was clear that Sayo Ayaka was a little uneasy about being in the same room with Altrouge, so Gwen took the opportunity to let her go back.

"Thank you for your understanding, Gwen."

Although it was somewhat impolite, Sayo Ayaka did not insist on this with respect to these two special guests and obediently returned to her room.

"Call..."

With everything finally settled, Gwen sat back down on the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Altrouge rose and went forward to pour Gwen a cup of hot tea.

"You seem very tired?"

"One thing is that many unexpected situations have arisen, and there seems to have been a bit of a misunderstanding, so the previous plan may need to be revised."

Gwen pinched the bridge of his nose and looked at the graceful black-clad Princess standing before him—

"Altrouge, do you know anything about the Six Royalties of the Dark Night?"

"I've heard of it before,"

Altrouge nodded first, then shook her head—

"But these are just hearsay rumors, and their credibility is questionable..."

Has it revived?

"Not yet."

Gwen shook his head and sighed again—

"But it seems our plan will cause it to awaken."

"This..."

Recalling the various rumors surrounding the other party, Altrouge couldn't help but frown—

The reason she can accept her current identity and situation so easily is largely because Gwen is willing to help her truly become the King of the Dead Apostles and obtain what is rightfully hers.

Now, with the goal she has been striving for for a thousand years within reach, another obstacle has appeared. How can Altrouge keep her mind at peace?

"However, that's something we'll have to consider later. Besides, no matter how strong we are, we can't escape this planet. It's not impossible to solve it, but we need more information."

Seeing Altrouge's expression, Gwen didn't dwell on it and shifted the conversation to someone she was more familiar with—

"In contrast, has Fufu, or Cathy Palug, contacted you?"

While Altrouge and her two companions were being thoroughly outmaneuvered by Gwen during their failed attack last night, Cathy Palug, the last remaining member of the White Beast Black Princess trio and Primate Killer, disappeared.

By the time Gwen remembered that there was such a Fufu counterpart in the Black Princess group, the other party had already disappeared.

If possible, Gwen still hopes to find the other person and continue to raise her with Altrouge.

At least, compared to rapidly growing into an adult beast in today's materialistic human society, it's safer for the other party to be a pet by the side of Altrouge, the Ancestor of the Dead Apostles.

"I can sense its presence; it seems to be not far away, but I can't contact it for the time being."

Black Princess shook her head slightly and sold the Demon Dog that had refused to help her in her time of need without hesitation.

"Oh?

So, it's actually still following you, right?

Gwen's eyes lit up when he heard this answer.

"That's right."

Altrouge nodded.

"If it wants to stay with you, then let it stay with you."

Gwen pondered—

"If it dares not show itself because it is afraid of me, you can tell it that I mean it no harm—"

As long as it doesn't do anything unnecessary, it can maintain its previous lifestyle...

Of course, it would be best to get rid of the blood-sucking habit.

"Yes..."

Upon hearing Gwen's words, Altrouge lowered her head in agreement.

"Heh... Sit down next to me. We have some time now, so let me see how I can help you with your problems."

Seeing that Altrouge seemed a little down, Gwen smiled and patted the spot next to him.

Chapter 563 Cathy Palug's Dilemma

"If that's the case..."

Altrouge sat on the bed in the room that Sayo Ayaka had prepared for her, her red eyes fixed on the blood-red light flashing in her palm, and wisps of magical energy surging around her, clearly as she was experimenting with something.

Earlier in the living room, Gwen had Altrouge demonstrate her use of power, and after studying it, offered some basic advice.

Upon hearing Gwen's suggestion, Altrouge suddenly felt enlightened, but apart from the time Gwen guided her step by step in the living room, Altrouge found that she was actually unable to reproduce that application on her own.

While Altrouge was troubled, a figure quietly appeared. A strange white beast, resembling both a rabbit and a cat, quietly emerged from the shadows of the room and looked at Altrouge, who was studying her power.

Noticing the other person's gaze, Altrouge turned her head and met a pair of eyes that held a hint of inquiry.

"Oh...

"Sergeant Cathy Palug, you're back?"

Seeing the Demon Dog that had previously refused to help, Altrouge's lips curled into a smile.

If it weren't for Gwen's previous instructions, Altrouge would probably have uttered some harsh words.

Having wandered together for hundreds and thousands of years, Cathy Palug, though a later arrival, still holds a place in Altrouge's heart, second only to the White Knight.

Outside, Cathy Palug is also known as the Demon Dog of Altrouge, and almost everyone believes that they are one and the same.

However, this same Cathy Palug had vanished without a trace when she faced Gwen's suppression.

Although in the end, Altrouge did not suffer any irreparable damage, and even found a powerful backer.
