Just Kidding-I've Already Done It

Unable to hide her shyness, Yukina's pretty face flushed slightly as she Mahiro punched Mahiro with her little fists.

From a distance, it looks like they're flirting, but in reality, this is the only way she can vent the shame and anger of being played!

However, Yukina quickly stopped what she was doing, and her expression suddenly darkened.

"I don't have any clothes to wear to the party." Yukina bit her lip, her expression as if she were stubbornly agonizing.

"What does it matter? It's just an invitation to a snake charmer. Just showing up is enough to give him face. There's no need to make a big fuss."

Mahiro shrugged indifferently, completely disregarding Vatler's invitation.

Or rather, if the Ophiuchus dared to express even the slightest dissatisfaction, Mahiro wouldn't mind giving Vatler a new boat and hanging him on the flagpole at the dock as well.

What should we call it this time?

Oceanus Grave III?

However, he then looked at Yukina and said:

"Besides, I don't think it matters even if you don't have an evening gown. With your looks, Yukina, you'd be outstanding and beautiful even in a school uniform."

This is not flattery or perfunctory.

The Lion King Agency sent Yukina Himeragi as a monitor not only because she was simple-minded and easy to manipulate, but also mainly because she was beautiful enough.

To put it bluntly, it's the kind of food that would be presentable at any kind of banquet.

"!!!"

His words made Yukina's cheeks instantly turn bright red, as if they were about to explode.

The girl lowered her head, looking uneasy at her intertwined fingers, a strange expression on her face suggesting both shyness and panic. Then, in an almost inaudible voice, she said:

"Thanks."

After agreeing on a time to meet, Mahiro and Yukina parted ways and returned to their respective classrooms.

Natsuki Minamiya has been very busy lately, and has hardly ever gone home. It is said that a group of unregistered demons have appeared on Itogami Island and are causing trouble.

Mahiro had offered to help, but Natsuki refused.

Therefore, even if Mahiro asked her to accompany him to tonight's banquet party, she probably wouldn't have time.

According to Misaki Sasaki, Natsuki and Misaki Sasaki received orders to shut down the research lab of Kanon Alchemical Industries tonight.

The company's research lab was quiet and dark, with only the sound of fans whirring. The room was filled with a dense network of electrical wires, and the central screen displayed text of unknown origin.

A man stared at the words, pacing back and forth anxiously.

The partition wall in the research room suddenly opened without warning, and a strange trio barged in.

Two men in black suits and a woman in a dress with ruffles, holding a parasol. She had an innocent face and could be aptly described as a little girl.

The man turned to face the intruders who shouldn't have appeared, frowning as he said, "Who are you? This is a confidential area of the company; only employees are allowed to enter."

He intimidated the men in black, his eyes sharp as knives.

But intimidation had no effect whatsoever, because the badges worn by the men in black indicated their status as a special security team.

That's the badge of the National Exorcist Officer in the Exorcist Division of the Special Zone Security Force, responsible for handling international magical crimes.

"Yosuke Makimura, Research and Development Department Kanon Alchemical Industries, right? We suspect that the items in our research lab contain materials that violate the Magic Trade Control Regulations. We demand that you immediately disclose all the data in your lab and hand over the materials."

"Violating... trade control order?"

The man, sweating profusely, stood up from his seat. "Wait a minute, you've made a mistake! We're studying ancient texts and have obtained permission from the management commune."

"We've already detained three of Christopher Jadex's men, you should understand now," Natsuki said calmly, holding an umbrella.

Makimura was shocked and gasped.

"In accordance with Article 5 of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Public Security Ordinance, we will now detain you. Your statements may be used as evidence in court, so please be careful with your words."

"Hmm..."

Two members of the special security team grabbed Makimura's hands, about to handcuff him, when suddenly a whooshing sound came, and a heavy blow struck them.

After colliding with the nearby beams and pillars, the two emitted a low groan of pain.

It turns out he had completed his transformation, turning from a beastman into a werewolf.

The researcher, who gained beast-like muscle strength and instantaneous power, has now become a highly lethal orc.

"So, he really is an unregistered demon... a supporter of the Black Death Emperor Faction?"

Natsuki Minamiya murmured listlessly, then quietly gave an order:

"Astarothie, subdue that guy."

"Command received."

Blocking the werewolf's path was none other than Astarte, whom the priest Lotharingia had once regarded as a tool.

But now, she was no longer wearing a loose, tattered robe, but an exquisite maid outfit.

Ever since Astarte entered the Yotsuba Clan residence, Natsuki Minamiya has taken her in and kept her by his side, where she serves as a maid who helps her brew black tea at school.

When necessary, she can also transform into a battle maid.

After all, with the magical power and regenerative abilities within Astarte now, there's no need to worry about shortening her lifespan by controlling familiars.

Just like right now--

"Execute it, Rose's Fingertips."

In an instant, a pair of arms radiating iridescent light appeared on Astaroth's back, enveloping her body.

The shockwave spread outwards, a dense magical fluctuation that possessed substance and mass.

The werewolf hadn't paid any attention, but he hadn't expected the girl in front of him to summon her familiar!

Before they could even react, the enormous arm transformed into a fist and slammed into the werewolf's body.

The sensation of bones and flesh being crushed came through the deep, resonant impact.

"Familiar... Familiar? A vampire?!"

As he coughed up mouthfuls of blood, the orc let out a painful, delirious groan.

Astarothie's eyes were devoid of emotion, like a ruthless pile driver, relentlessly pounding her arm against her enemy until he fell completely silent.

Severely injured and unable to maintain his beastman form, Makimura began coughing violently after reverting to human form.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the men in black rushed forward and put a metal ring around his neck.

That's a special restraint device for orcs that uses a weak electric current to disrupt nerve responses and prevent them from turning into orcs.

"I'm so sorry, Instructor Nangong. I was saved thanks to you."

One of the special security personnel, supporting his broken right hand, thanked Natsuki.

And Natsuki unfolded its umbrella, it gracefully said:

"No need to be so polite, it's nothing at all."

She didn't look at them, but instead focused her gaze on one or two photographs on the table, which showed what appeared to be stone tablets unearthed from some ancient ruins.

The inscription on the surface of the monument, like the message projected on the research lab screen, is an undecipherable string of characters.

"So this is the smuggled goods that the Black Death Emperor Faction specially transported from the Western Regions. It doesn't seem to be just an ancient relic. Where is the actual object?"

"Target could not be identified; it is presumed to have been transported out of this facility."

Astarothie listened to the Natsuki's whisper and answered calmly.

The artificial life form girl was pointing to a metal transport storage box left in the corner of the room.

It was completely empty.

The stone tablet that was stored inside was probably taken away by someone.

Were we too late?

That Natsuki, feeling unhappy and resentful, she looked up at the image projected on the screen.

As a witch, she can read some of the words above.

That Natsuki, when the words "Narakvera" were discovered, he unusually showed a serious expression.

"Prehistoric relics excavated from the No. 9 Mehrgarh Ruins in South Asia. It is said to have destroyed countless cities and civilizations in the past. Were they weapons created by the gods? Given the intelligence of the orcs, it seems impossible for them to unravel the mystery."

For some reason, whenever she saw the description above, the image of Yotsuba Mahiro would immediately pop into her mind.

At the same time, a sense of unease and unease welled up within her.

She sensed an impending storm.

Chapter 370 I was just kidding, I've already done it (5.5K)

The luxury cruise ship that Vatler used for his party was docked at the renovated harbor area.

Even from a distance, the extravagance of that cruise ship is immediately apparent; it shines like the morning star among all the other vessels.

Yukina recognized her at a glance.

The party starts at 10 p. m.

Now, large numbers of invited guests, dressed in elegant formal attire, can be seen walking down the gangway into the ship, appearing dignified and composed.

It's obvious at a glance that they are a group of important figures with special identities.

At this moment, Mahiro and Yukina had arrived at the dock as agreed and were preparing to board the ship with the crowd.

His black suit and handsome face made him stand out from the crowd of guests.

But compared to his usual elegance and affability, his slightly open collar tonight made him look more like a suit-wearing thug.

However, what was even more amazing was Yukina.

She was wearing a light blue evening gown with a conservative amount of skin showing at the chest.

In contrast, the cut from the shoulders to the back is quite bold.

The light and thin fabric perfectly and clearly revealed the girl's figure, while her long, slender, white thighs were exposed beneath the gorgeous ruffled mini skirt.

Very charming, and very stunning.

Her already youthful and energetic temperament was enhanced by this dress, which added a touch of delicate charm and even a subtle beauty.

At the very least, she's on par with those mature, wealthy young ladies and many invited celebrities.

She was even more beautiful than them.

The only pity is that Yukina still carries the Schneewaltzer that she never leaves her side.

However, it wasn't the black instrument case he usually carried, but a hand-held hard-shell instrument case.

It slightly detracted from Yukina's beauty.

Mahiro didn't care much about these things, because his gaze was fixed on Yukina's chest the whole time.

Is it really that big?

He was very puzzled.

The suit he's wearing now, and the evening gown that Yukina is wearing, were actually mailed to him by the Lion King Agency this evening.

It seemed to have been specially prepared for them, just for this dinner.

Not only does it fit Yotsuba Mahiro's size perfectly, but it even comes with a size list for Yukina.

He can even clearly remember the size marked on it.

Height 156 cm, B76 W55 H78 C60...

"It's a C cup, surprisingly big... but is it really that big?"

You can't tell from Yukina at all; she seems to be on par with Nagisa Akatsuki.

Little did he know, all his murmurs were clearly heard by Yukina.

In an instant, the girl blushed, glared at him with a mixture of embarrassment and anger, and then playfully reminded him:

"Yotsuba Clan! It's our turn to board the ship!"

"Uh-huh."
