Is This Thing Really Prototype No. 12? (5K)

Natsuki Minamiya raised an eyebrow, and at the same time, the veins on her temples bulged.

Despite being a powerful attack mage nicknamed "The Witch of the Void," she has a small and cute appearance like a Western doll and likes to wear gothic dresses covered in lace, making her look incredibly adorable.

But actually, what she hates most is this kind of childish address.

Especially Natsuki- chan!

"Don't you dare call me Nazuki-chan!"

Suddenly, a fan appeared in Natsuki's right hand. She jumped up angrily and tapped Yotsuba Mahiro on the head with the fan.

Hmm, it didn't hurt much. It didn't seem like they used much force; it was more like a massage.

After being tapped, Natsuki Minamiya clicked her tongue in disapproval, but seemed to be in a much better mood.

Even the chains of Chain of Commandment his body were removed.

"Forget it, it's just a test anyway, no need to take it so seriously."

As she spoke, she gazed into the distance.

"Alright, I'll take you to the Demon Sanctuary on Itogami Island."

Natsuki Minamiya, known as the Void Witch, used spatial control magic to bring Yotsuba Mahiro and the others to a large house in an upscale residential area. The house was spacious and luxuriously decorated!

The girl, who had been Yotsuba Mahiro Aya Sengakuji's arms, had somehow slipped out of his embrace and even straightened her clothes, as if nothing had happened.

Except for her resentful gaze, which remained fixed on Natsuki Minamiya.

But Natsuki Minamiya didn't care. She walked over, picked up the teapot from the coffee table, poured herself a cup of black tea, and then proudly introduced her mansion.

"This is my residence in the Demon Sanctuary. There are many empty rooms. You will live here from now on."

The tone was light and cheerful, but it brooked no refusal, conveying a strong sense of assertiveness.

"Hmph, how pathetic. Do you intend to remain trapped in this dream forever, refusing to wake up?" Aye sneered.

"Indeed, you can treat me as a real projection. Aye, you can sleep in the same bed with him like husband and wife, just like in the Prison Barrier."

Natsuki -chan held her head high and said some things that could be misunderstood.

Aye's expression changed slightly, and she said in a deep voice, "Don't talk nonsense. When did I sleep with him? As for you, were you pretending to be asleep so that he would kiss you on purpose?"

"Aye, are you going to start a fight?!"

Natsuki Minamiya stood with her hands on her hips, glaring fiercely at Aye.

"Who's afraid of you? One day I'll take back the Dark Oath Grimoire from your memory. Do you really think I'll make peace with you?!"

Aye's beautiful, ruby-like eyes met Natsuki's gaze with a fierce intensity, the air thick with tension.

Their gazes seemed capable of sparking each other.

Seeing this, Mahiro simply sighed and didn't intervene. Instead, he turned around, found an empty room, placed the still-sleeping Yuuma Sengakuji on the bed, and covered her with a blanket.

Honestly, this girl can really sleep. She's like she's dead asleep. Even though something so big happened, she still acts like she didn't feel anything.

However, on second thought, he remembered the number twelve physical body stored in the ring.

"It's time to wake her up too."

He muttered to himself as he walked out of the room, only to find that the two people in the living room had stopped arguing and were sitting quietly on the sofa with their arms crossed.

But the low pressure and tense atmosphere around them clearly indicated that their battle was far from over.

It doesn't really matter.

"Natsuki -chan, can I ask you for a favor?"

"What's up?"

Perhaps still angry with her best friend, she didn't notice how he addressed her.

"Nothing special, but could you help me transfer Yuuma Sengakuji to a nearby school?"

"That's possible, but you'll need to complete the necessary procedures to reside in Itogami City. I'll arrange it for you tomorrow."

Natsuki muttered to herself, her eyes inadvertently glanced at Yotsuba Mahiro.

She couldn't understand what this man was thinking—why send Aye's daughter to school?

Is it really just a simple matter of wanting to raise a daughter?

Before she could even ponder and investigate further, Aye had already spoken:

"Hmph, no need. Why would my daughter need the burdensome teachings of school?"

"Heh heh, is that really so? Yeah, Aye, you're just using that child as your puppet. If I'm not mistaken, you hope that one day that child will break through the Prison Barrier and rescue you, right?"

Natsuki Minamiya's gaze seemed to see through everything, and her tone was full of confidence:

"Let me tell you, that's impossible. Even if you give her another hundred years, she simply can't do it!"

No, it really can be done, and it doesn't need a hundred years, just five more years will suffice. It can be done with the help of some unfortunate True Ancestor.

Mahiro silently complained to himself, thinking of the future Fourth Progenitor, Kojou Akatsuki.

But nowadays, Kojou Akatsuki can no longer become the Fourth Progenitor, right?

It's hard to say.

After all, the Feast of the Flame hasn't officially started yet, and the outcome is still uncertain.

However, even as he pondered these things, Natsuki Minamiya's incessant chatter continued unabated.

"Aye, you must be feeling terrible right now, right? You've already escaped the shackles of prison, but the puppet you carefully nurtured for your own plans is useless now, and has even been adopted as a daughter by another man... Heh, a puppet with its strings cut, Aye, you can't control it anymore."

That Natsuki, she took a sip of red tea and let out a laugh that was hard to pronounce but exceptionally cheerful.

Aye's pretty face flushed with anger, and she glared coldly at Natsuki Minamiya.

She wanted to refute, but couldn't find any words or powerful arguments.

Because what Natsuki Minamiya said was right, Yuuma Sengakuji is now completely out of her control, and even if she wanted to manipulate her, that man named Yotsuba Mahiro wouldn't let her have her way.

"By the way, what grade is that child in now?"

Natsuki Minamiya suddenly turned the topic to him, Mahiro shrugged and said:

"Yuuma Sengakuji is probably around ten years old now, but she's very smart. She's already mastered the elementary school textbooks, and going to junior high school won't be a problem for her at all."

In this matter, Mahiro who has the most authority to speak.

Because he was in charge of Yuuma Sengakuji's academic studies, and her intelligence was astonishing, her learning ability was in no way inferior to Lelouch, who he remembered as having the highest IQ.

"Is that so? In that case, let her attend junior high school at the Saikai Academy. I happen to be a teacher there," Natsuki said with a light laugh.

This was the conclusion she reached after a moment's thought.

However, Mahiro's gaze kept sweeping over Natsuki Minamiya, revealing a hint of strangeness.

Although I knew from the beginning that Natsuki Minamiya was a teacher in addition to being a demon tamer, seeing her petite, loli-like figure and hearing her call herself a teacher felt very strange.

Yes, she's at the Tsukuyomi-level (cute).

"Hmph, so you've become a teacher at the school, watching over the growth of new students!" Aye said coldly.

"Yes, what's wrong with it?"

Natsuki Minamiya replied nonchalantly, her gaze fixed on the world outside the window, as if lost in thought.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly put down his teacup, stood up, and said:

"It's getting late, let's call it a day. You can choose your own rooms, but Aye, you'll share a room with him and get some rest."

After saying that, she went straight back to the master bedroom in the front.

After Natsuki Minamiya left, Aya Sengakuji only glanced at him coldly and didn't say much, but her back view looked a little disheveled and unwilling.

She chose the innermost guest room, completely disregarding whether Yotsuba Mahiro followed, and slammed the door shut behind her.

He didn't mind and simply opened the door and went inside.

"Get out! This is my room!"

"But you heard it too, Natsuki -chan made us sleep in the same room."

"This is none of my business... What are you doing?! Don't come any closer, sob..."

No one knows what happened in the guest room, but in reality, Yotsuba Mahiro simply tied up the defiant witch, threw her on the bed, and then lay down on the other side of the bed.

The silence of the living room was broken by bursts of noise coming from inside the bedroom.

In the empty living room, Natsuki Minamiya's figure reappeared. She stood in the hallway, gazing at the door, and murmured as if lost in thought:

"Aye, don't blame me."

"If only everything could stay like this forever..."

Chapter 341 Is this thing really the twelfth prototype? (5K)

It was a quiet night; nothing unusual happened, and everything was peaceful.

Only on the morning of the second day Yuuma Sengakuji somewhat panicked.

Finding herself in an unfamiliar room, with neither her mother nor father in sight, she immediately burst into tears.

In the end, it was Yotsuba Mahiro came to the room and comforted her before she calmed down.

Apart from that, everything else remained the same. Natsuki Minamiya brewed herself a cup of fragrant black tea early in the morning, while Aya Sengakuji sat on the sofa without saying a word, her eyes slightly cold.

It wasn't until Natsuki Minamiya left with Yotsuba Mahiro and Yuuma Sengakuji that Aye had no choice but to follow.

She didn't want to recall the terrible things that would happen after she left within 500 meters of Yotsuba Mahiro.

As the chief librarian and leader of the LCO's Library, it's natural to be unhappy about having one's freedom restricted.

Fortunately, the current environment is better and freer than prison, so she can barely accept it.

Unfortunately, the man she thought would help her obediently followed Natsuki Minamiya's arrangements. She had promised to take him in for one night in prison—was it because of his kiss with Natsuki?

She felt her mind was in turmoil, and her emotions were difficult to control, unlike herself.

In short, seeing Yotsuba Mahiro and Natsuki Minamiya together filled her with an indescribable displeasure.

"Natsuki, you're here, Natsuki-senpai! And who are the people behind you?"

Halfway there, Natsuki Minamiya found it troublesome, so she used spatial control magic to take them to an office.

The office was luxuriously furnished and very spacious; it could easily be mistaken for the principal's office. Unfortunately, it was Natsuki Minamiya's private domain.

The speaker was a young woman with red hair styled in a bun with braids, wearing a cheongsam-style top with a mini skirt and tight pants, her outfit exuding a sporty vibe, and she had a voluptuous and attractive figure.

Yes, a purely Chinese-style female attire.

Although it's somewhat stereotypical, this is how it's portrayed in Japanese anime, and after experiencing the world of Lelouch, it's not surprising.

However, at this moment, the Chinese girl was observing Yotsuba Mahiro with great interest.

"No way, is Natsuki -senpai going to start dating?"

Her tone was somewhat teasing, and her eyes were somewhat ambiguous. Just as Natsuki Minamiya was about to explode, she reached out and excitedly touched Natsuki's head, as if comforting a child.

"Stop touching me! Besides, they're just here to help the three of them get their demon registration certificates!"

That Natsuki, she glared fiercely at the teacher she worked with, completely unable to withstand her passionate advances.

The so-called Demon Registration Certificate is the thing that the vampire Liana wore on her wrist before; it contains a biosensor badge, a magic sensing device, and a transmitter.

Those wearing these things are not ordinary people.

Special citizens who have landed in the Demon Sanctuary; in other words, non-human beings, demons.

Demons who wear bracelets rarely harm humans.

If such a thing were done, the Special Zone Security Force's anti-demon officers would immediately swarm in, and the demons would be able to live in the city as normal humans.

Knowing all this Yotsuba Mahiro at Natsuki Minamiya with a strange gaze, even though he was a pure-blooded human.

"Her name is Misaki Sasaki, my colleague."

Natsuki Minamiya looked at the tall, youthful-looking woman in front of her with displeasure as she introduced her to Mahiro and the others.

Then, Natsuki introduced Yotsuba Mahiro and Yuuma Sengakuji to the girl, deliberately ignoring Aye.
