Compared to Vishnu's Ten Great Incarnations, the fusion of the Copycat Eyes was far more tranquil. With nothing more than a blink, Su Yang had already fused with the Copycat Eyes!
"Oh?~~"
Slightly surprised, Su Yang turned his Copycat Eyes, gleaming with pentagrams, toward Heige.
Previously, he had also been able to see the dozens of Magic Circles around Heige through Krishna's ability, but because Krishna's power was limited by Su Yang's own strength, he had been unable to see their true nature.
But now, under the power of the Copycat Eyes, the origins of every Magic Circle were laid bare before Su Yang!
The Copycat Eyes originated from the world of The Legend of the Legendary Heroes.
The ordinary Copycat Eyes could instantly analyze the composition, form, nature, and power of any magic seen by their user once activated, allowing them to directly learn that magic. This remained effective even if the opponent stopped casting midway.
A skilled wielder of the Copycat Eyes could strike after their opponent yet arrive first. With enough knowledge, they could even freely alter existing magic and create new magic with practical applications!
For now, it was far more useful in ordinary combat than any single one of Su Yang's Avatars.
After seeing the Magic Circles around Heige, Su Yang had already understood their nature and weaknesses. At the same time, he could use them himself!
Heige's gaze met Su Yang's in midair.
After noticing that the fur on her tail and ears had been plucked without her even realizing it, Heige's expression immediately changed.
"Looks like this little black kitty misjudged you, meow? To play a prank on me without me noticing... is this handsome little guy some kind of powerful existence? Interested in working together for the future of the Nekomata clan, meow?"
Heige spoke with a trace of seduction in her voice.
"No!~~... You can't~"
Before Su Yang could respond, Koneko spoke first.
After saying that, Su Yang could clearly see a faint blush blooming across Koneko's face.
"If you could dismiss the newly formed Magic Circle in your hand while saying that, I might agree."
Su Yang silently snarked.
You were clearly worried that some unidentified powerhouse who had never appeared before was staying beside your little sister, so you wanted to silence me, weren't you?
Still... thanks for letting me learn another kind of magic.
Heige silently withdrew the Magic Circle hidden in her hand.
"The handsome little guy Shirone found isn't bad, huh~~ What a pity. Can he really protect you forever? Come to Sister instead. Sister's companions are very interested in you, and you could gain the protection of one of the Two Heavenly Dragons~~"
"This handsome little guy might be strong, but you should know that being strong yourself and being able to protect others are two different things. It would be effortless for Sister to take you away, meow?"
"Cough, cough..." Su Yang coughed lightly.
"Um... sorry, but I really can."
After saying that, Su Yang used Instant Movement to arrive beside Koneko before she could notice.
"Hm?... Eh?"
Koneko had only just reacted when she discovered that her feet had left the ground and her center of gravity had shifted!
I... I was picked up by Su Yang-senpai?
Realizing this, a blush spread over Koneko's little face. Her big eyes blinked, and she took a deep breath, seemingly calming down.
However, just as she settled herself, the changing scene before her made her heart race again.
She was now in Su Yang-senpai's arms. The Princess Carry position from before had reversed—now she was the one being carried in a Princess Carry!~
"Senpai? This is?"
Koneko noticed the difference in their surroundings. She and her senpai had somehow arrived in this clearing as though they had used Instant Movement!
"Koneko, I don't know any Magic Formulas for repairing houses. If I still want somewhere to live later, I can't fight your Sister there~~"
Su Yang narrowed his eyes.
Since the Monkey King had come with Heige, they would surely be able to detect where he was now.
"Um... Senpai, you're not an ordinary person? How did you get fur from my Sister's tail and ears just now? Could it be... Senpai, do you have Maou-class strength?"
Wariness appeared on Koneko's slightly bashful face.
Even the president, a High-class Devil, couldn't do something like that. Did this senpai at the school possess strength beyond President Rias's?!
But Sister hadn't noticed Senpai's movements either. Could it be... could it be that Senpai's strength had already surpassed Sister's and reached the Maou-class?!
A Maou-class being had been staying at Kuoh Academy all along? And he was even an honor student who always ranked first?!
Koneko felt that this world was simply too fantastical... Oh, right. This world itself seemed to be a fantasy world.
Hearing Koneko's words, Su Yang could not help but smile wryly. If he had Maou-class strength, he would have pinned Heige to the ground and spanked her right there, then confiscated the Monkey King's Golden Cudgel and waited for the old monkey to come ask for it himself.
"It is just that my ability is rather special. You can think of it as me having awakened a Heroic Bloodline. My actual strength is about the same as yours."
Su Yang was not lying about that. Without using her Nekomata bloodline, Koneko possessed the strength of an Intermediate Devil.
And when he used his Avatars without overtaxing his body, merely consuming stamina, he was at that level as well.
Using the power of [Vamana, the Dwarf], he could easily cross through time and space. No restriction or seal could stop him!
In the myth of Vishnu's Fifth Incarnation, Vishnu transformed into a Dwarf to reclaim dominion over heaven, sky, and earth from Demon Pali.
Demon Pali believed the little Dwarf was nothing remarkable and agreed to give him all the land within three steps. To his surprise, Vishnu returned to his original form and crossed heaven and the human realm in two steps, then stopped, leaving hell to the Maou.
[This symbolizes the sun crossing the cosmic expanse in the morning, at noon, and in the evening.]
"A... a Hero? Senpai, are you someone who inherited a Heroic Bloodline?" Koneko asked.
"Something like that."
Su Yang had roughly decided on his future course of action during what had just happened.
"What kind of Hero?" Koneko's feline curiosity was piqued.
"A... Hero with special abilities. I'll tell you when I get the chance." Su Yang smiled.
He knew that telling Koneko was equivalent to telling Rias.
"Alright..."
