Is Something Wrong with Your Eyes?
"Terreiro dolls are traditional toys from island nations. It's said that hanging one up will bring sunny weather, but that's just a trick on children."
As Ren explained the origin of the toy, he ruthlessly debunked the legends surrounding it.
He was even more convinced that the Teru Teru Bozu (Sunny Doll) was a fabricated legend created by merchants to boost sales.
This is just like the various luxury goods available today.
If you don't have an appealing story for your brand, you'd be embarrassed to call yourself a luxury brand when you go out.
Meanwhile, Nangong Nayue watched the two people chatting at the front of the group.
She couldn't understand it at all.
The Chaos Bride, who was brutally beaten up during the day, was able to act as if nothing had happened by nightfall, saying she wanted to enjoy the night market on Itogami Island.
If it were her, she wouldn't have such a thick skin.
It's fair to say that there are some things that become less important as you get older.
But she quickly thought of Aurora.
These two vampires are about the same age, but their minds are just as innocent and naive as those of Nagisa Akatsuki and Yase Kanon.
Compared to the Chaos Bride, she's like heaven and earth.
After much deliberation, Nangong Nayue decided to give up.
Her superiors had previously instructed her to take good care of the Third Progenitor and Ren, meaning they wanted her to act as their bodyguard.
These two eat her food, live in her house, and even flirt right in front of her. She has to protect them. Does the Management Corporation really treat her like a beast of burden?
However, Nangong Nayue's resentment, the Chaos Bride was much more relaxed at this moment.
It was she who took the initiative to suggest going shopping with Ren.
Ren didn't refuse; after all, there was no deep-seated hatred between them, so going shopping was fine.
Certainly.
Although the Chaos Bride is the third True Ancestor, she is not like the True Ancestor in High School DxD, who is a reclusive old ghost. Instead, she is often active in the news.
Because of her beauty, she has gained a large number of fans all over the world.
To avoid being discovered, Jada used magic to change her face before going out.
She looks almost identical to Aurora, but is taller and has a more mature face.
"I never imagined the nights in the Demon Sanctuary could be so beautiful. My opinion of it has changed somewhat; it's completely different from the customs and traditions of my home country."
The Chaos Bride gazed at the bustling traffic and couldn't help but admire it.
In the past, she often traveled incognito within her own territory to experience the local customs and culture. Now, having come to Itogami Island, a Demon Sanctuary, she sighed as she compared the differences between the two places.
Just then, a loud voice suddenly came from behind Aurora.
"Master, I... I want to eat frozen drops of nectar!"
Aurora lived thousands of years ago.
People back then spoke in a completely different way than they do now.
Although she studied vernacular Chinese with Nagisa Akatsuki for a while after the lockdown was lifted, she still retains some of her old habits.
The so-called "frozen nectar drops" translates to "cream ice cream."
Ren naturally wouldn't refuse his pet's request.
With a wave of his hand, he bought ice cream of various flavors for everyone, including himself and Aurora.
Of course, Ren treated everyone, Nangong Nayue paid the bill.
After that.
The Original Fourth Progenitor, seeing through Aurora's eyes the Chaos Bride still chatting happily with Ren, was also furious.
Even though she was a defeated opponent just like him, why could she chat and laugh with Ren, while he could only be captured by that strange Poké Ball and become a pet!
That's not fair!
Even Aurora's earlier act of wanting to eat ice cream was secretly instigated by the Original Progenitor.
The happier the Chaos Bride laughed, the happier she became.
But this clearly didn't work.
No!
I need to find a way to get my owner to put this woman in Poké Ball so she can be my neighbor!
However, she didn't notice at all that the Chaos Bride glanced at her.
As an artificial vampire created under her watchful eye, the Fourth Progenitor knew perfectly well what she was thinking.
Despite the passage of thousands of years, because of a lack of complete life experience, they often act like children.
Chapter 291 Is there something wrong with your eyes?
After meeting Ren.
The Chaos Bride no longer cares about the Fourth True Ancestor.
As the saying goes, water flows downhill, and people strive to climb higher.
Having witnessed Ren's immense power, how could she possibly want to challenge the Fourth Progenitor?
After all, even the twelve Star Familiars possessed by the Fourth Ancestor were specially sought out by them.
The downtown area was packed with people, and the girls found things that interested them.
The Original Fourth Progenitor, because the Chaos Bride ignored him, went back into Aurora's body and drew circles to curse her.
"Lord Ren, my subordinates are bringing the two hosts we are holding in the Chaos Zone to Itogami Island as quickly as possible. You will be able to see them by tomorrow."
"They are Number Six and Number Ten, respectively."
"As for Number Ten, she is completely different from the other the Fourth Primogenitor, and even the Number Twelve you currently possess."
"She was the first of the twelve hosts to awaken, and later joined an organization called 'The Fall of the Abyss,' destroying a total of three Demon Sanctuary. That's why there are so few Demon Sanctuary in the world today."
"But later I captured her and kept her imprisoned in my palace."
"I originally intended to keep her hidden until the end of the Feast of the Crimson, after all, that child is indeed different, but since you want her, I've had her brought here."
After listening, Ren fell into thought.
The Number Ten host is named Di Shanpo, and its familiar is Capricorn's Eye Crystal, which possesses the power of "charm".
As for "The Fall of the Abyss," he remembered that there was a scene in the later part of the story where this organization caused trouble on Itogami Island.
The purpose is self-evident.
Basically, the villains in the Strike the Blood world have two main goals: to rule the world and to destroy Itogami Island.
There is absolutely no higher ambition.
Their ideas are all quite pure.
In fact, there are quite a few villains in this world who are evil without any brains. Even if their thoughts and initial intentions are good, their actions are no different from those of terrorists.
It's similar to the Hero Faction in the High School DxD world.
However, if we really had to pick the tallest one from the short ones...
The Hero Faction are far more noble than the villains in this world.
At the very least, they really wouldn't target ordinary people.
"Be careful, she's not the Fourth Primogenitor who will submit so easily."
The Chaos Bride spoke with a light laugh.
A hint of cunning lurked beneath her stunningly beautiful face; clearly, there were still many things she hadn't explained to Ren.
Fortunately, as a transmigrator, Ren's greatest asset was his foresight regarding the plot.
Even if the details are slightly different, the main body is largely the same.
Once the quest is triggered, just go and bring her back.
The moon is hazy on Itogami Island tonight, and it's still very beautiful.
After finishing their shopping trip, Ren took the girls back to Nangong Nayue's house.
After washing up, Ren appeared in... the Chaos Bride's room.
The Chaos Bride, who was gazing at the starry sky, has returned to her original form.
Her emerald-green hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and her back wasn't particularly slender; as a vampire, she had a more robust frame than ordinary people.
Combined with her fit physique, she exudes a healthy and beautiful aura, rather than the delicate beauty of Lin Daiyu.
"Lord Ren, what brings you here so late?"
The Chaos Bride turned around and looked at Ren with great interest.
Ren shook his head. "Nothing, just bored and came out for a walk."
His single sentence completely destroyed the atmosphere created by the Chaos Bride.
Princess Chaos: "..."
I don't believe you for a second! You old geezer, you're a really bad guy!
What time is it? Still taking a stroll?
Besides, who would sneak into a woman's room while taking a stroll?
The Chaos Bride possesses the innate ability to see through people's hearts, which is based on judging their inner thoughts by observing the micro-expressions on their faces.
However, this ability was completely useless to Ren.
It wasn't because Ren could remain expressionless; it was simply because he was still wearing sunglasses late at night, putting on a show, with the same smile on his face as he had during the day.
The only thing that's certain is that Ren' eyes, hidden behind his sunglasses, are looking at him.
The Chaos Bride turned around and slowly approached.
She was wearing only a thin silk nightgown, which accentuated her slender and curvaceous figure. One of her legs, which could be described as perfect, peeked out from under the hem of the nightgown. The nightgown was slit up to halfway, revealing glimpses of her fair skin that was almost dazzling.
The legs have no unnecessary decorations.
Indeed, with legs this exquisite, any embellishment would be superfluous.
What's even more eye-catching is that pert, jade-like foot.
The insteps were fair, and the toes and heels had a captivating pinkish hue, showing no signs of dryness or cracking due to age.
Her glossy toes were painted with light green nail polish.
It looks exactly like Apple- flavored Alpenliebe lollipop!
My gaze shifted slightly upwards, revealing a stunningly perfect figure with a slender waist and full, pert hips.
As he continued moving upwards, Ren sighed softly.
Unfortunately, even with the Chaos Bride's figure, she did manage to produce a pair of large children, but compared to Ren, whose sexual fetishes had been spoiled by Rias, Lavinia, and others, they were still too small, too small!
Now, even if the Chaos Bride had poor eyesight, she knew that Ren was sizing up her figure.
Any other man, upon learning her identity, would never have dared to be so rude.
However, according to the bet, she was already his concubine, so it was understandable that she was viewed this way.
It's both novel and unsettling.
Having lived for thousands of years, she had never been stared at by a man with such an aggressive gaze before.
However, she quickly noticed Ren's gaze and shook her head slightly when he placed it on her chest.
"?"
"What do you mean?"
