After seeing Kanzaki Rin off, Fang Cheng returned to his bedroom and pulled out a sheet of paper.
It was covered with ideas for developing new abilities, things he had jotted down recently while his imagination was running wild. He planned to test them one by one.
Whether it was the hidden threat of the Evil God or Kanzaki Rin's plans, both had made Fang Cheng feel a sense of urgency.
Originally, after killing the Spider Monster, he had thought he was pretty strong and could at least protect himself in Tokyo.
But his miserable showing during the assassination of Aoki Yusuke, and his helplessness in the face of the Evil God, had made him realize he was still weak as a kitten.
So improving his strength was imperative. He couldn't keep wasting time taking it easy.
Several days later.
Kanzaki Rin got off work early that day and made a special trip to Fang Cheng's home to discuss their plan of action for the charity gala the next day.
She opened the front door and entered the living room, only to find Ye Yuqing and all three of the Sato Siblings crowded around the bedroom door, watching something.
Kanzaki Rin walked over. At the sound, Sato Hayato turned around and quickly held a finger to his lips.
"Where's Fang Cheng?"
"Captain said he's developing a new ability. Every day, he comes home and stays cooped up in his room."
Sato Hayato answered in a hushed voice.
His own training had been paying off lately, but he didn't dare show off at all.
"Developing a new ability?"
Kanzaki Rin was immediately curious, but the doorway was so narrow that there was no room for another person to squeeze in.
She pointed her thumb toward the living room.
