At that moment, it was not only Akira Gajo—even Liana looked toward Luo Zhen once more.
However, unlike Gajo's interested gaze, Liana's eyes revealed a hint of hesitation, a trace of fear, and finally even a sliver of hostility as she looked at Luo Zhen.
Luo Zhen endured the two different gazes. He maintained a practically perfect smile on the surface, while secretly sighing to himself.
"Looks like you did quite a few good deeds in Europe, Natsuki."
That was Luo Zhen's only thought.
Whether it was Akira Gajo or Liana, the moment they heard that Luo Zhen came from Kageno Island and bore the surname Nangong, they immediately reacted excessively. It was clearly because of Nangong Natsuki.
After all, Nangong Natsuki was a famous demon hunter in Europe. As a first-rate National Demon Slayer Officer and a Witch, she had carried out countless missions and arrested numerous notorious Magi criminals, long since becoming synonymous with terror.
That was why Akira Gajo looked at Luo Zhen with interest, while Liana, who came from the War King's Domain, revealed both fear and a hint of hostility. It was all directed at Natsuki, not Luo Zhen.
And it went without saying that these people must be thinking this, right?
"Are you somehow connected to that 'Witch of the Void'?"
Gajo asked the question bluntly.
That was right.
Both Gajo and Liana were wondering whether Luo Zhen had some connection with the famous 'Void Witch.'
After all, they both came from Kageno Island and both bore the surname Nangong. It was only natural for them to be suspicious.
Of course, the fact that they could associate Natsuki with him based solely on a surname showed just how renowned Natsuki was in Europe.
Kojo and Nagisa, on the other hand...
"'Witch of the Void'...?"
