Chapter 210

The only man in the house not only spends his days indulging in pleasure but also likes to bring girls home. Looking at it this way, she is simply an incompetent wife.

Why are you so busy?

"Who do you think is preventing me from taking a vacation?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Nayue became quite angry.

Ren shrugged, just as he was about to try and refresh the Prison Barrier quest on her, but she simply left through the teleportation array.

"Forget about her, let's play."

"..."

Surprisingly, halfway through the game, even the Chaos Bride joined in.

Furthermore, after Ren defeated Nagisa Akatsuki, Aurora, the Fourth Progenitor, and the vampire sisters in the fighting game, the arrival of the Chaos Bride brought the situation to a stalemate.

"Speaking of which, as a true progenitor of vampires, how come you're so good at a video game?"

Ren complained, while simultaneously controlling his game character to deliver an uppercut to the enemy, but the Chaos Bride reacted quickly and controlled her game character to block it.

Upon hearing this, the Chaos Bride said calmly, "Why do you have such a question?"

"Oh, I've met a few vampires like you before, but most of them are old fogies with rusty brains, just clinging to their own little corner of the world while dreaming of ruling it."

The vampires Ren mentioned are from the world of High School DxD, specifically the vampire realm within Romania.

The vampires of the Tepes Faction and Carmilla Faction, in terms of their lifestyle and behavior, are almost identical to the stereotypical vampires portrayed on television.

Not to mention video games, even the internet itself has disappeared.

Putting aside their strength, the comparison between Carmilla and the Chaos Bride alone made him feel that the Chaos Bride was still a child.

After hearing these words, the Chaos Bride chuckled and said, "Although I don't know where you met him, the True Ancestor of Vampires is also human, and he can play games occasionally too."

As she spoke, the Chaos Bride's hands moved with surprising speed.

The Chaos Bride, who had been utterly routed by Ren on both battlefields, seemed to be trying to turn the tide in this way.

But in the end, Ren proved to be the better player. The Chaos Bride was not entirely convinced and secretly decided that she should try to regain the initiative on another battlefield tonight.

That night.

The Third True Ancestor was once again utterly routed.

Several days passed in the blink of an eye.

The only impact of the Fall of the Abyss was that residents complained about rising prices.

Di Shanpo, the ringleader, was acquitted because of Ren's influence, but the others weren't so lucky.

The destruction of three Demon Sanctuary has earned them a place on the global wanted list.

However, since Itogami Island follows the island nation's laws, the conditions for a death sentence are extremely harsh. Therefore, like Yase Kensei before them, they were imprisoned in a special cell.

Although Ren could release them with a single word, there was no need for it.

Di Shanpo herself was quite satisfied with the fate of her companions.

After all, for those who have committed various crimes, being able to continue living is already a stroke of luck.

Looking at Ren lying on the sofa scrolling through videos on his phone, a strange thought suddenly arose in Di Shanpo's mind.

But just as she was about to say "thank you," the door to the study on the other side quietly opened.

A young girl with black hair, whose appearance and figure were like a doll, walked out with light steps, wearing a green dress with ruffles.

Although she looks no different from an elementary school student from any angle, Nangong Nayue's inherent dignified aura makes it clear that she is not a child.

Di Shanpo swallowed back the words that were already on the tip of her tongue.

Hearing the commotion, Ren looked at Nangong Nayue and said, "Nagyue, so much time has passed, haven't you figured it out yet?"

What do you mean, "understand"?

Nangong Nayue had just finished grading the test papers, was stunned for a moment, and then she realized what was happening.

Then, she fell into a silent silence.

--Prison Barrier.

Although Ren got the information from somewhere, she no longer needed to pretend to be ignorant.

But let's ask ourselves honestly.

Is she really ready now?

She deliberately changed the subject earlier because she had only known Ren for a short time and did not trust him.

After all, it's impossible not to break free from the shackles of the contract.

If she weren't so attached to this colorful world, she wouldn't have gone to the trouble of creating an exquisite doll as her vessel for traversing the human realm.

If given the chance to experience the world's temperature in its true form, who would willingly spend their days as a guard in a dark and dreary prison?

On the other side.

Seeing the flicker in Nangong Nayue's eyes, Ren knew that she was still hesitant.

Seeing this, he narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Give me an answer now. If you don't want to, I won't bring it up again."

Although Nangong Nayue is one of his many quirks, it's not enough to make him care about her all the time.

Upon hearing this, Nangong Nayue understood what Ren meant.

If she doesn't give an answer today, even if she changes her mind later, Ren might not help her anymore.

Although she had considered refusing, she just couldn't bring herself to say it.

This body, which moves through the world by magic, allows him to breathe the fresh air of the world freely.

The reason she became a teacher was because she sensed attitudes from her students that were completely different from those of adults.

They are young and full of energy.

Interacting with her students allows Nangong Nayue to experience a sense of freedom in life.

Since signing the pact with the devil, her life and soul have been given to him, which is why she craves freedom more than anyone else.

Nangong Nayue raised her eyes, quietly gazing at the young man so close to her, and asked the question that had been hidden in her heart for a long time.

"I only have one question: why would you help someone like me who has absolutely no connection to you?"

Volume 2: Chapter 314 The Witch's Curse

As soon as she said those words, Nangong Nayue stared intently at Ren's expression, afraid of missing even the slightest change.

Although from a rational perspective, breaking through the Prison Barrier shouldn't be influenced by personal feelings, she desperately needed such a reason at that moment.

"Because I am ***."

"..."

"To be honest."

Nangong Nayue looked at him very seriously.

That is absolutely true.

Ren shrugged.

Aside from triggering new quests and obtaining rewards from Nangong Nayue, breaking the curse of the Prison Barrier is a thankless and arduous task for anyone.

The same applies to Ren.

But that's always been the way Ren was.

Now that I've become a time traveler, of course I have to do things that will make my mind clear.

If Nangong Nayue were left to stay inside the Prison Barrier while I transmigrated here and did nothing, not only would it be unsatisfying, but I would also lose a legitimate loli for nothing.

"Although Xiaona Yue, you don't have a good figure and a bad temper, what can I do? I'm kind-hearted."

Upon hearing these comments, Nangong Nayue's expression changed slightly, but soon a helpless smile appeared on her childlike face, which could easily be mistaken for that of an elementary school student.

Even the maid Astarte in the room could tell that Nangong Nayue was in a pretty good mood.

No one knows what the witch is feeling at this moment.

At the same time.

The system notification sounded again.

[Nangong Nayue has issued you a new task.]

[Quest: Prison Barrier]

[Objective: "Break the witch's curse and set her free"]

[Rewards: Nangong Nayue's Affection +50, World Anchor Fragment *1, Random Reward *1]

"What should we do next? Or what's our plan?"

Having decided to proceed, Nangong Nayue no longer hesitated and directly inquired about the battle plan from Ren.

To break the curse, the Prison Barrier hidden in the dream must first materialize in reality. After that, the magical criminals she had imprisoned swarmed out like sharks smelling blood.

Almost equivalent to being sentenced to life imprisonment, they constantly yearn to escape from the Prison Barrier.

There were dozens of criminals, and they were quite powerful. Even at his peak, Nangong Nayue would not have been able to deal with so many criminals at once.

"Once the Prison Barrier appears in the real world, the first thing they'll do after escaping is kill me. And in that situation, my magic will be greatly weakened, leaving me with little combat ability."

"Nangong Nayue said."

Besides that, what concerned her most was how Ren would break the curse on her.

After all, if things were to progress to that point, Nangong Nayue would be seen by the demon as a traitor to the contract, and the demon, who had once been her guardian, would transform into an executioner and reap both her life and soul.

"You don't need to worry about that, I've already devised a pretty perfect plan."

Ren's nonchalant attitude reassured Nangong Nayue.

Although Ren' past actions seemed extremely risky, they were always perfectly resolved by the other party using various methods.

The follow-up processing was a bit troublesome.

But having a lot of debt is never a bad thing.

Compared to Ren's duel with the Third Progenitor, Nangong Nayue felt that her own situation was nothing.

"In that case, I'll take my leave now. The physical form of the Prison Barrier will soon appear on the sea north of Itogami Island; that's the real-world location where the Prison Barrier is built."

At this point, Nangong Nayue suddenly paused.

"The Prison Barrier isn't just my ability; its existence is also valued by the Artificial Island Management Corporation. Once the Prison Barrier manifests, it will definitely trigger an alarm on Itogami Island, and the Special Zone Guard might come over. I hope you can show mercy."

"It's all taken care of. After all, we're all just working like cattle for capitalists. I won't do anything to them."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Nayue gave a wry smile.

Are they cattle or horses?

It may sound unpleasant, but that's the reality.

Even a seemingly carefree witch like her is nothing more than a pawn in the eyes of those in power.

Once she loses her value, she will inevitably be dumped immediately.

"They're gone."

After saying this, Nangong Nayue's body shattered like a mirror until it disappeared.

Her body at this moment was purely composed of magic, and her five senses were the result of magical transformation.

She disappeared because she deliberately dispelled the magic.

At the same time, the space around Itogami Island suddenly began to tremble.

An extraordinary surge of magical power shook the entire Itogami Island, the chaotic torrents of magic disrupting the atmosphere and unleashing terrifying, raging winds throughout the entire island.

The magic collection device on Itogami Island detected a powerful magical reaction and sounded a piercing alarm.

The residents of Itogami Island were all numb.
