"Because I knew you liked drinking it, Lin Luo."
"Then sorry for the trouble, Akeno. An iced cola would be great."
"Just a moment!"
Akeno Himejima smiled faintly and walked toward the refrigerator.
"You really stirred up another huge mess this time."
Rias gazed at Lin Luo, her expression complicated. "I wonder which of you actually won?"
After all, it had happened in the East.
And Lin Luo had returned very quickly.
So even with Rias's intelligence network, she wasn't entirely clear on the details.
"Well, I won."
Lin Luo smiled faintly. "And it was a complete victory."
Rias: "..."
His meaning was perfectly clear.
But she couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to his words.
Could it be...
She asked suspiciously, "Don't tell me even that King has become your familiar?"
"How could that be? One exception like me among the God Slayers is more than enough."
"How could there be a second King who rose to that position as a devil?"
Hearing Lin Luo's words, Rias inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.
But clearly...
She had relaxed too soon.
"Still, although I didn't reincarnate her as a devil, Cuilian now receives the same treatment as my familiars."
Rias's expression froze. Her lips parted slightly, and she deflated like a punctured balloon, all the light draining out of her.
Just as I thought!
She should never have expected anything from this lecher.
Granted...
She really wasn't a jealous woman.
But sometimes...
She still couldn't help wanting to bite this man to death.
"President, are you all right?"
Returning with the iced cola, Akeno Himejima looked at Rias with concern.
At the same time...
A glint flickered in Lin Luo's eyes.
Finally, another summons from an Otherworld?
Sensing that inexplicable power, Lin Luo's lips curved into a smile.
