The King of the Danger Beasts?

Under everyone's stunned gazes, bolts of lightning danced wildly like writhing serpents, crashing down from the magic circle.

His strength had improved tremendously some time ago.

At last, Lin Luo got a little serious.

Rumble! Rumble!

Terrifying mushroom clouds rose within the imperial palace, the violent explosions surging into the sky.

Countless Ice Cavalry soldiers were crushed in an instant, finally dissolving into ice dust.

Endless smoke seemed to blot out the sun and sky.

"Did I go a little overboard?"

Looking at the scene, Lin Luo grinned.

But he couldn't help it!

There were too many Ice Cavalry soldiers.

He had no patience for clearing them out one by one.

A real man cleared the whole field, of course.

In the distance, everyone sheltered beneath the buildings, their faces filled with horror.

Their minds had gone completely blank, as though they had lost the ability to think.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

A gentle breeze blew, dispersing the smoke and dust.

Enormous craters emerged across the ground.

All the Ice Cavalry soldiers had vanished.

Crack! Crack!

At some point, ice walls covered in cracks had appeared around Esdeath, only to shatter with a thunderous crash.

She staggered, but instead of falling to the ground, she found herself in a warm embrace.

He smells wonderful!

Taking a deep breath, Esdeath looked up into those ruby eyes. "You won."

She raised her hands, as lustrous as jade, and rested them against Lin Luo's face.

"What would you like me to call you? Master?"

A faint smile curled her lips.

"If you want to start calling me that early, I certainly don't mind."

Lin Luo held her in his arms and led her toward another palace.

"You really are domineering..."

It was the first time a man had treated Esdeath this way. Her face flushed before her lips curved upward.

This really does feel nice.

"So you're actually a Devil?"

Inside the palace, after hearing Lin Luo's explanation, Esdeath's pupils contracted. She looked toward Akame and Leone beside them.

"And you've reincarnated those two as Devils too?"

"That's right!"

Lin Luo nodded. "And you'll become one of them as well."

Gazing into Lin Luo's eyes, Esdeath gave a captivating smile. "Oh, now that's something to look forward to."

Devils, huh? Interesting.

"Aren't you surprised at all?"

Esdeath shook her head, her gaze calm.

Naturally, she was surprised that the legendary Devils existed in this world.

But the weak obeyed the strong. She had understood that principle since childhood.

Since I've lost!

Never mind a Devil.

Even if he were a demon god who would destroy the world, I'd follow him to the end.

Besides...

If I become a Devil...

Perhaps I'll have a chance to grow even stronger.

After all, she had witnessed her master's power just now.

Her supposed status as the strongest...

Was utterly worthless before her master.

So, all things considered, she was the one getting the better end of the deal.

Esdeath tossed her hair and said firmly, "Master, can we begin?"

Lin Luo gave her a long look, then smiled. "That's just like you."

"With that resolve, stay by my side for the rest of your life."

A smile formed on Esdeath's lips. "Of course, my master."

Lin Luo raised his hand, and a rook piece appeared.

"..."

Esdeath looked a little stunned.

What's a chess piece got to do with reincarnating as a Devil?

"This is an Evil Piece. Placing it inside your body will complete your reincarnation as a Devil."

"I see."

Esdeath nodded, then gave it a strange look.

But where does this thing go, and how do we put it in?

Instinctively looking down at herself, Esdeath sank into thought.

P.S. Please send flowers and boost the stats.

Chapter 24: The King of the Danger Beasts?

"Then let's begin."

Looking at Esdeath as he fiddled with the Evil Piece, Lin Luo said, "Take your clothes off first."

"Huh?"

Esdeath blinked.

Take my clothes off?

Put the piece in?

Seeming to catch on, she asked, "My pants too?"

"..." Lin Luo was speechless.

Has she misunderstood something?

That's a path I never even imagined.

Shaking his head, Lin Luo said, "You only need to take off your outer clothes and face me."

Oh, that's all?

For some reason, Esdeath felt a little disappointed.

She looked at Lin Luo's handsome face.

Never mind. There'll be plenty of opportunities later.

"This woman... she's a formidable rival!"

Watching all this, Leone's gaze sharpened.

"Esdeath will be our comrade from now on, not our enemy."

Akame patted Leone. "Don't be hostile."

Akame, do you even understand what's going on?

We were here first!

Leone held her forehead, unsure how to explain.

Just then!

Esdeath had taken off her outer clothes, and her ample chest swayed like ocean waves.

Taking in the sight, Lin Luo placed the piece inside.

"Ngh..."

Esdeath let out a muffled moan, her face flushing slightly.

Even if she had slaughtered countless people, she was still a woman...

Instinctively, she looked at Lin Luo.

Master seems to really like this?

At that thought, Esdeath's lips curved upward, and she met Lin Luo's gaze.

But soon, a dark red magic circle began to appear.

Esdeath's expression gradually began to change.

Her body was changing.

It's so hot. It feels like some kind of power is surging inside me.

The very next instant!

Two pairs of batlike wings unfurled.

A long Devil Tail also sprang out with a swish, swaying back and forth across the ground.

"So long..."

Lin Luo's eyes flickered slightly.

Of all his servants, Esdeath had the longest Tail.

"Master, would you like to touch it?"

Smiling, Esdeath brought her swaying Tail in front of Lin Luo.

Lin Luo grabbed it and began kneading it.

"Mmh...!"

Esdeath trembled, feeling her entire body grow burning hot.

"Does it feel good, Master?"

She looked at Lin Luo, her ice-blue eyes so moist they seemed ready to spill over.

"Hehe!"

Lin Luo chuckled and gently released her Tail.

Though it was no longer restrained, Esdeath did not withdraw her Tail. Instead, she kept swishing it back and forth in front of Lin Luo.
