Chapter 997 Preparation


    To be honest, Duanmu Huai can hit a group of such demons with one hand, but this time, the reason why he chose to attack the demons was certainly not just to eliminate them.


    "I''m leaving it to you! Mio! I''ll pull the monsters, you''re responsible for the output!"


    That''s right, Duanmu Huai treated himself as an MT this time. His task was to hold the monster and let Mio Narase learn how to fight - learning is the fastest progress in real battles, and Wanria also agreed with Duanmu Huai''s point of view.


    "Do you want me to do it?!"


    Looking at the terrifying monster in front of her, Mio Narase felt a little nervous. After all, before her parents were killed, she was just an ordinary girl... Hum?


    A girl who has always lived an ordinary life suddenly changed one day, her parents were killed, and she awakened the power hidden in her body. Isn’t it the protagonist of a light novel when she changes her gender?


    Now Duanmu Huai depends on whether she has the potential to be the protagonist of the light novel.


    “That’s right!”


    Duanmu Huai casually waved the war hammer to block the attack of the outlier demon on the opposite side, and nodded in front of Mio Narose. And Wanria also clenched her fists and looked at Mio Narase.


    "Come on! Lord Mio, I have taught you how to use magic!"


    “Woo……”


    Hearing Wanria''s words, Mio Narase raised her right hand, and soon, a bright red magic wave like a flame burst out from her. Immediately afterwards, a lightning bolt flew out from the magic circle in front of her and blasted towards the outliers of the demons in front of her!


    “Wow!”


    The outlier demon obviously did not expect that the delicate girl in front of him had such power. The bright red lightning radiated out of Mio Narase''s hands and directly hit the outlier demon, causing a thunderous explosion. However, this outlier demon was obviously not a weak person. After detecting Mio Narase''s magic, it also flashed quickly and tried to escape.


    However, at this moment, Duanmu Huai was quick-eyed and quickly broke the forelimbs of the devil with one hammer, knocking him to the ground!


    "Hurry up, take action, kill it!"


    "this………"


    "Think about it, how many people did this demon eat!"


    Seeing Mio Narise hesitated, Duanmu Huai also angrily.


    "It is a demon who enjoys killing people and eating people, and it is the same as the demon who kills his parents!"


    "And the demon who killed my parents..."


    Hearing this, Mio Narase recalled the nightmare again, the figure of the demon who easily played with and killed her parents... At this moment, the bright red magic on her body shone more and more. Then Mio Narise raised her hand again and pointed it at the outlier demon in front of her.


    "Go to die--!"


    Accompanied by Mio Narase''s roar, the next moment, a bright red light ball flew out from her hand and directly hit the huge body of the outliers of the demon.


    “Oh oh oh oh!”


    The moment he was hit by Mio Narase''s red light ball, the outlier demon let out a painful scream. Then, his body began to squeeze, deform, and twist, as if it was crushed by some invisible powerful existence. It gradually began to decompose and break, and then disappeared completely after a moment.


    "This is Lord Wilbert''s power! Lord Mio has indeed inherited this power!"


    Seeing this scene, Wanria immediately cheered, while Mio Narose stared at the floor in front of her blankly, looking at the look of not knowing how to react - there is now nothing left.


    “Good job.”


    Duanmu Huai also came over at this time and patted Mio Narise on the head.


    "It''s time to do it, remember, there is no kindness in the fight, although I know it may be difficult for you to accept this. But no matter what, the only thing you can do now is to keep going, remember, your parents are dead, and die to protect you. And all you can do is not let their sacrifices be in vain. Maybe you hate fighting, but if you don''t fight, you will be killed. At that time, your parents'' sacrifices will be meaningless and valuable, do you understand?"


    “…………”


    Hearing Duanmu Huai''s words, Mio Narose lowered her head and looked at her hands. Then she raised her head and nodded vigorously at Duanmu Huai.


    "I understand, uncle."


    After the "big cleaning", Duanmuhuai and his group moved into this luxury house that was almost like a free pick. Fortunately, the furniture of the ex-owner is still there. Currently, there are only three people living in this villa, so there is no need to be too complicated. Of course, for Mio Narase, she was reluctant to live in such a haunted house, but Duanmu Huai said, "You are the eldest lady of the demon clan. How are you afraid of ghosts?" and after Wanriya''s persuasion, she finally nodded in agreement.


    Of course, Mio Narase did not forget to complain to Duanmu Huai, which made him look like a big villain... After all, he is a demon now and lives in a haunted house. How strange it is, isn''t it?


    Duanmu Huai just smiled and said nothing. The facts proved that his method was effective. Although Mio Narise still minds living in a haunted house, she will no longer look at the ruins of her home like before, and she has been looking at the ruins of her home all day long.


    If you have the energy to complain, it means that she is walking out of the shadow in front of her.


    Of course, she and Wanliya also transferred to the King of Ju Academy where Duanmu Huai is located. In fact, Wanliya had refused this, and she proudly took out a driver''s license, claiming that if a policeman came to ask her why she didn''t go to school, she would say that she had become an adult... Duanmu Huai directly punished this and beat Wanliya up completely.


    Come to school with me, and you are not allowed to go anywhere!


    However, before this, Duanmuhuai still has another problem that needs to be solved.


    "Why………"


    Looking at the sign of the "Mysterious Research Society" in front of him, Duanmu Huai sighed silently, then knocked on the door. Soon, Lias''s voice came from the door.


    "It''s Teacher Duanmu, please come in."


    "Sorry to disturb me."


    As he spoke, Duanmu Huai pushed the door and walked into the Mystic Research Society - unlike before, there are only two people in the company office, Rias and Akano Himejima, and the other three are not there. Rias sat behind the desk, looking at Duanmu Huai with curious eyes.


    "Teacher Duanmu, what''s the matter with me? Have you changed your mind and planned to become my relative?"


    "That''s impossible, give up."


    Duanmu Huai refused decisively... Then he looked at Rias.


    "Actually, I have something I want to ask you for help."


    "Woo... I just rejected my invitation, and now I have something to ask me for help?"


    Hearing this, Rias''s expression was somewhat speechless.


    "Teacher Duanmu, you are so domineering... but you will ask you to come to me... What''s the matter?"


    "I remember you said that you are the superior demons from hell, are you considered a noble?"


    "Of course, our Jimuri family is a famous family with a long history...what is there any problem?"


    "Oh...it''s a long story..."


    Duanmu Huai sat on the sofa, and Akano Himejima hurriedly handed over the tea. Duanmu Huai was drinking tea while telling Rias about what had happened in the past few days. After listening to Duanmu Huai’s story, Rias was unable to hide her shock.


    "I have heard of the situation of the Wilbert family, but I remember that after the death of the Wilbert patriarch, his younger brother should be in charge of the family... So that''s it. I really didn''t expect that Wilbert would have a daughter who stayed in the human world..." "In short, now I live with her, and she will come to King of Joshua College to study next. Aren''t you all demons? It should be fine to help take care of her."


    "Um……"


    Lias was silent for a moment.


    "It''s not impossible...but I''m from the Gimmonri family, and she''s the heir to the Wilbert family, and from what you say, they are fighting inside because of the inheritance right. To be honest, as a member of the Gimmonri family, I don''t think I''m suitable to participate in the internal affairs of other families."


    “This is not a problem.”


    Duanmu Huai shook his head.


    "I just hope you help her in the community activities."


    “Society?”


    "yes."


    As he spoke, Duanmu Huai pointed to the community in front of him.


    "If the transfer student wants to join the club, as the minister of the Mystic Research Society, it should be fine to help newcomers, right?"


    “………… Do you think this statement can work?”


    Faced with Duanmu Huai''s scoundrel''s answer, Rias was speechless. Indeed, if it is a relationship between two members of the superior demon family, there may be political problems. But as a student, Mio Narise transferred to Konoha College and joined the Department of Mystic Studies. She was guided by the minister. This is the duty of the student, and no one can say anything, right?


    Of course, that''s it, but everyone knows what the situation is.


    "The Wilbert family won''t agree with you."


    "Don''t worry, they have to agree if they don''t agree."


    Speaking of this, Duanmu Huai snorted coldly.


    “I will give a proposal that they cannot refuse.”


    "To be honest, I''m really curious, teacher, why do you have to be involved in this muddy water."


    Lias picked up the teacup and drank a sip of black tea, and looked at Duanmu Huai curiously again.


    "To be honest, whether it is our Gimmonri family or the Wilbert family, it is all our own problems among our demons. Teacher, you are just a human being, why do you have to intervene in this? And according to your statement, isn''t that Miss Narase Mio just your neighbor? But what you did for her has more than what a enthusiastic neighbor should do."


    "If you want to ask me if I like her, of course I like it. After all, I am beautiful and cute, and have a good figure."


    Duanmu Huai didn''t care about Rias''s inquiries at all and said carelessly.


    "But the main problem is that I''ve been involved."


    “What do you say?”


    "I just told you that a demon attacked Mio Narase and killed her parents. In order to save her, didn''t I kill that demon?"


    “That’s right.”


    "Well... I found out later that guy''s name is Zokiel, and he seems to be quite famous among you demons?"


    “………Ph!”


    The teacup in Rias''s hand fell directly to the ground and shattered, while she looked at Duanmuhuai blankly, looking disbelief.


    "Wait, wait, you mean... you killed Marquis Zogil!?"


    "That''s right, an old man with cow horns and looks very cool. Judging from your reaction, is he really famous among the demons?"


    “It’s more than just famous!”


    Lias almost jumped up now!


    "Marquis Zogil is one of the only veteran figures of the Demon Clan that remained in the three-party war, and he has very strong attainments in ancient magic... Even the current Demon King respects him three points...!"


    "Oh, that seems pretty bad."


    Duanmu Huai was still calm, put down the teacup and spread his hands towards Rias.


    "So you see, I''ve been caught in."


    "……It''s true, but it''s not certain that you''re destroying Marquis Zogil himself, or maybe his clone or a trick..."


    Lias breathed a long sigh and sat back on the chair.


    "I will investigate this matter, I have to say... Teacher, you are really brave..."


    "Overall, the third in the world, then we are determined?"


    “……I can only say that I will consider it before making a decision.”


    "That''s nothing wrong."


    Duanmuhuai stood up and nodded to Lias.


    "Then I''ll leave it to you, I''ll say goodbye first."


    After saying this, Duanmu Huai walked out of the Mystics Research Room, while Rias watched Duanmu Huai''s back disappear, and then looked at the Azuno Himejima next to him with a serious expression.


    "June, go and investigate the situation of this matter immediately, the Wilbert family, and Zokiel..."


    "yes."


    "Why………"


    After giving the order, Rias sighed and lay directly on the table.


    "Teacher... I really can give me some difficult problems..."


    Then, she muttered to herself.
