Lin Luo's killing intent

After getting a clear look at the four of them, Utaha Kasumigaoka instinctively wrapped her arms around Lin Luo's arm.

Lin Luo: "..."

Was this woman brave or timid?

She'd just been taunting them.

Despite his inward grumbling, it certainly felt comfortable.

Lin Luo shifted his arm and said, "You've got quite a figure."

Utaha Kasumigaoka froze, then flushed scarlet. "Master Pervert, could you pick a better time for your filthy thoughts?"

"Relax. They're a bunch of weaklings."

Watching the pair converse as though no one else were there, Raynare and the other three looked utterly grim.

Just how little did these two think of them?

"You mere devils, that's enough!"

Dohnaseek roared and shot into the sky, drawing his arm back to throw.

Hum!

Brilliant light flashed in the night. Pure white radiance flickered in Dohnaseek's hand, taking the shape of a spear of light.

Though they were fallen angels, they still possessed the power of light.

"This power..."

Utaha Kasumigaoka frowned.

As a devil, she instinctively found this power repulsive and dangerous.

Whoosh!

The spear of light tore through the sky, stirring visible clouds of white air as it broke the sound barrier and hurtled toward Lin Luo and Utaha.

Seeing neither of them move, Raynare smiled coldly. "Devils will be devils. They can't even withstand a single..."

Her words cut off before she could finish.

Right before their eyes!

A Magic circle appeared, and a mighty torrent of blue Thunder shattered the spear of light and engulfed Dohnaseek.

Rumble!

The entire sky shook.

The park lit up as brightly as day.

An eerie silence settled over their surroundings.

Rei and the other two fallen angels, as well as Utaha Kasumigaoka, all looked stunned.

A moment later.

A charred corpse fell limply from the sky.

"He... he's dead already?"

Utaha Kasumigaoka instinctively tightened both arms around Lin Luo's arm and said blankly, "But he was a fallen angel!"

A fallen angel straight out of legend.

The devils' nemeses, their mortal enemies, could be killed in a single strike?

She knew her master seemed powerful, but wasn't this a little different from what she'd imagined?

"I told you, they're weak."

Lin Luo shook his head, looking bored, then addressed the three remaining fallen angels. "By the way, was the human you mentioned earlier named Issei Hyoudou?"

"How did you know?"

Mittelt answered instinctively, then caught herself and snapped, "You damned devil! How dare you kill Dohnaseek?"

Rei and Kalawarner exchanged a glance, their bodies tensing.

The devil before them was no ordinary opponent.

"So it really was you."

Understanding dawned on Lin Luo, and he raised a hand. "As a token of my gratitude, I'll let you die painlessly."

Hum!

The instant he finished speaking, an exquisitely radiant pale blue Magic circle appeared in midair.

The terrifying surge of magic visibly warped the air all around them.

"Kill him!"

Rei and the other two shouted, springing into action with spears of light in their hands.

That terrifying magic sent fear coursing through them.

They absolutely could not let him cast his Magic.

He seemed to be a devil who specialized in Magic. If they could just get close...

Boom!

As that thought crossed their minds, a vast, surging torrent of Thunder burst forth.

Their spears of light crumbled like tofu.

Terror spread across the three fallen angels' faces as they felt an overwhelming aura of death drawing ever closer.

"No!"

They let out a defiant scream, but could only watch helplessly as Thunder swept over their bodies and their consciousness rapidly blurred.

In the final moment of their lives.

All they saw were those wine-red eyes, filled with coldness and indifference.

It really is painless.

With that thought, their consciousness sank completely into darkness.

Meanwhile, Utaha Kasumigaoka's eyes widened until she stood utterly stunned.

My master is terrifying.

Is this his other side?

Lin Luo looked at Utaha Kasumigaoka in surprise. "Are you all right?"

"I'm fine!"

Utaha Kasumigaoka jolted and instinctively let go of him.

"What a shame. I shouldn't have said anything."

Lin Luo swung his arm.

He had to admit, it had felt wonderfully soft.

Sure enough, no matter what, my master is a complete pervert... Utaha Kasumigaoka calmed down.

She looked at the three corpses, a curious gleam in her beautiful eyes. "I thought Master Pervert would go easy on them. They were three pretty girls, after all."

"It's not as though I lose all self-control whenever I see a woman."

"Really? A rare moment of lacking self-awareness, Master."

"They were enemies. I'm not in the habit of showing enemies mercy."

Lin Luo said helplessly, "Besides, what pretty girls? They couldn't hold a candle to you."

"..."

Utaha Kasumigaoka froze, her toes curling awkwardly against the soles of her shoes.

Yet the corners of her lips lifted without her realizing it.

Chapter 11: Lin Luo's killing intent

Early the next morning!

Kuoh Academy!

"Enroll?"

Asia looked hopeful. "Can someone like me really enroll here?"

Having grown up in the church, she deeply yearned for a normal school life.

"Don't worry. Leave everything to me!"

Lin Luo affectionately ruffled Asia's hair.

"That's right, Asia. You don't need to worry."

Having learned a little about Asia's circumstances, Utaha Kasumigaoka felt a flicker of sympathy.

It was time for school to start.

Plenty of students hurried along the academy's paths.

Lin Luo and the two girls drew considerable attention.

"That's the transfer student, Kasumigaoka, right? She's a real beauty."

"And the girl beside her—is she a Nun? She's gorgeous too."

"They're both with Lin Luo. I'm so jealous."

No matter where they went, a handsome boy accompanied by beautiful girls was sure to draw a crowd's attention.

Lin Luo had long been well known at the academy.

Although he often skipped class, his almost inhumanly handsome looks appealed to people of every age.

Utaha Kasumigaoka had only just transferred, but her reputation as a beautiful girl had already spread throughout the academy.

Wherever they went, they could hear all kinds of comments.

Lin Luo and Utaha had long since grown used to it.

"So this is school life? They're so bold about what they say."

Unlike Lin Luo and Utaha, Asia blushed bright red as she listened to the voices around them.

Saying I'm Lin Luo's girlfriend... it's so embarrassing.

As the three continued walking, a figure appeared ahead of them, seemingly having waited for quite some time.

She had shoulder-length hair and wore glasses on her delicate face, giving her an intellectual air.

"Sona, did you need something from me?"

As she approached, Lin Luo greeted her with a smile.

Sona Sitri!

Another pure-blooded devil besides Rias.

Thanks to Rias, the two of them knew each other well.

Stare!

Utaha Kasumigaoka studied Sona Sitri without taking her eyes off her.

Good!

I haven't lost this time.

But she's another stunning beauty.

Should I expect anything less from devil territory?

How many girls this beautiful have I seen now?

Noticing Utaha Kasumigaoka's gaze, Sona Sitri paid it no mind and instead said to Lin Luo:
