"At that time... an important figure overruled all objections and kept the Little White Cat, even finding her a master. She had lived like that ever since."
By the time Koneko finished telling the story, her golden eyes were already brimming with tears.
"That Little White Cat was you, Koneko..."
Su Yang said softly, feeling a little heartbroken.
Although he had known this story long ago, hearing it from her personally and seeing her delicate face and tears still stirred his emotions.~~
"Yes... I just didn't expect Sister to come looking for me. Sister once easily killed my master, who was a High-class Devil. I'm worried Sister might come after the President..."
"Don't worry. Even if she comes looking for someone, I think she'll be looking for me. Koneko, you only need to stay by my side."
Su Yang stroked Koneko's white hair, his eyes carrying a trace of indulgence.
He had been a cat lover in his previous life too, hadn't he?
"We're here."
Koneko spoke softly. By the time she finished speaking, the two had already arrived outside the Occult Research Club.
"Click~~~"
Su Yang gently opened the door to the Occult Research Club.
"President, I brought Su Yang-senpai."
A trace of tears glimmered in Koneko's eyes, but Rias's attention was focused on Su Yang, so she did not notice.
"Thank you for your hard work, Koneko. You must be Su Yang, then. I'm Rias Gremory, president of this school's Occult Research Club—and a devil, you know~~"
The Crimson Hair girl extended her hands toward Su Yang.
"This counts as getting acquainted again, doesn't it, President Rias? I already know the basics about devils."
Su Yang smiled and extended his hand. As one of the school's most beautiful girls and the Top Scholar, they naturally already knew of each other.
"My, my, Yang-kun, this is hot tea~~"
After Su Yang sat down, a Japanese-style Beauty with a single ponytail gracefully approached from the side. If she had any defining feature, it was probably that she was very large.
"Thank you, Akeno-senpai. You're the ace of the Tea Ceremony Club. I never expected to get to drink tea brewed by you personally."
"My, my!~~ Thank you for the compliment, Junior~~"
Akeno Himejima touched her face and spoke with a smile all over it.
"I'm Yuto Kiba, also a devil."
Yuto Kiba introduced himself with a smile as well.
"Mm, I'm Su Yang, a mere human, Kiba."
Su Yang raised his eyebrows and smiled.
The reason he raised his eyebrows was simple: he had not expected Yuto Kiba to refresh three tasks for him at once!?
[Ding!] [Congratulations, Host, for triggering a Location Sign-in! Sign-in Level: Bronze!] [Sign-in Location—Yuto Kiba's demonic sword!] [Sign-in Time Limit: 1 hour.] [Ding!] [Congratulations, Host, for triggering a Location Sign-in! Sign-in Level: Silver!] [Sign-in Location—Yuto Kiba's Holy Sword!] [Sign-in Time Limit: 2 months.] [Ding!] [Congratulations, Host, for triggering a Location Sign-in! Sign-in Level: Silver!] [Sign-in Location—Yuto Kiba's Holy Magic Sword!] [Sign-in Time Limit: 2 months.]
Yuto Kiba, the quality of the tasks you brought up wasn't much, but there sure were a lot of them. In a sense, quantity really could make up for quality—as long as he got lucky.
"A mere human? Yang-kun says he's a mere human? How humble. A mere human who can drive back Heige, an opponent even the Underworld's Enforcement Team couldn't capture."
Rias took a sip of tea as well. She knew she had little connection with Su Yang. At most, she had been slightly interested in him once. Clearly, Su Yang's relationship with Sona was far better than his relationship with her.
So... her goal was to make Su Yang her Servant before Sona could—that was, to steal a march on her!
"I was only running away the whole time. Of course, she definitely couldn't catch me."
Su Yang had to admit that he truly was no match for Heige.
Unless—unless he was willing to be bedridden for a while.
"Yang-kun, since you understand the devil world, I'll be direct. I need your strength, Yang-kun. I hope you can become my Servant."
Rias's blue eyes were filled with seriousness.
She truly did not want to marry Raiser Phoenix, who looked—and actually was—a complete piece of trash.
She had heard that all of his Servants were women. One look was enough to tell he was a lustful pervert who indulged in pleasure!
Moreover, he really was the kind of person a scumbag would be. She had heard that, just to complete the harem setup, he had even made his own younger sister his Servant.
No! She absolutely could not become his wife! Even if she had to use a Rating Game, she would reclaim her freedom to choose whom she married!
For that... powerful Servants were essential.
Koneko had said that Su Yang had only just awakened his Hero bloodline, yet he could already drive back Heige, an Ultimate Devil.
With talent like that, even a Longinus wielder might not be capable of it! He was simply the ideal Servant candidate!
"Become a Servant? President Rias, do you mean becoming a devil?"
Su Yang narrowed his eyes. During class earlier, he had already examined the energy within his body, and there was only a very small amount of magical power.
That was energy provided by six Pawn Pieces, one Bishop Piece, and one Knight Piece!
