"I'm really a little unwilling..."
As Enigma spoke, her expression became more and more cheerful, as if she had thought of something interesting:
"Now it's my turn to be in the dark..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a breeze blew by, shaking the branches under the night sky.
Amid the rustling sound of trembling leaves, the figure on the bench disappeared without a trace.
-
In Ikebukuro, an apartment building not far from Sakura's apartment.
Ding-ling-ling~Ding-ling-ling~ The phone rang.
Amid the loud ringing, a hand reached out from above the quilt, grabbed the phone, took it and glanced at it, then answered the call without thinking:
"Hello, who is this~"
A deep female voice sounded.
After the inquiry sounded, the other end of the phone seemed to be silent for a while before accepting that the voice answering the phone was a female voice:
[I am Yukinoshita, is Minister Luo Shu here?]
Hearing this, Honjo Niya poked his head out from under the quilt, as if suddenly awakened, and said:
"The one with flat breasts and an awesome sister who loves a sister?"
【...】
What the hell is Yukinoshita Hirano called? ! !
Yukino Yukinoshita on the other end of the line seemed to be completely overwhelmed and completely silent.
Chapter 126 The True Form of the Flame Demon
"Huh? Why aren't you talking?"
Looking at the silent phone, Honjo Niya was puzzled. She even glanced at the screen again, and after finding that it was "on a call", she put it back to her ear:
"Ahem, this is the Honjo family. Is there anything you would like to ask?"
[.....Let's not talk about who you are and why the minister's phone is in your hands. I just want to ask, can the minister receive a call now?]
Hearing Yukinoshita Yukino's voice that was so cold that it almost sent the cold air to her, Honjo Nia shivered, complained "It's so cold", and said directly:
"You mean Luo Shu? He's probably taking a shower. After all, he was sweating all over last night. But why do you sound so cold when you talk? Did I forget to turn off the air conditioner?"
"Oh, by the way, he slept in my bed last night."
When Honjo Niya said this, his expression was full of teasing, as if he was waiting for fun.
However, Yukinoshita Yukino didn't seem to give her a chance to watch the fun:
[...I understand. When he finishes showering, please ask him to call me back immediately. I will only keep his whereabouts secret for an hour.]
As soon as he finished speaking, a busy tone sounded and the phone was hung up, which also shattered Benjo Niya's thoughts of watching the fun:
"Oh my, it's much more interesting than what was described in the text information."
As he spoke, Honjo Nia narrowed his eyes and said with a slight smile on his face:
"He didn't believe what I said at all, and he also didn't believe in Luo Shu's integrity. He's a very interesting kid."
While she was muttering, Luo Shu, who had changed his clothes compared to last night, pushed the door and walked into the room. He looked over and saw Benjo Niya holding his phone. He raised his eyebrows and said:
"Who's calling?"
"It's your secretary Yukinoshita Yukino. She asked you to call her back within an hour."
Honjo Niya smiled and answered Luo Shu. At the same time, he glanced at the plastic bag in Luo Shu's hand and said with a little surprise:
"Hey, did you bring me breakfast?"
"It's just a bento from a nearby supermarket. I just bought it casually."
As Luo Shu spoke, he walked to the bed, put the bag in his hand on the bedside table, sat down to sort it, and asked:
"Did Yukino tell me what she wanted to talk to me about?"
"Wait a minute, let me take a look..."
As Honjo Nia spoke, she waved her right hand, and suddenly, a Confession Book with a black background and a cross pattern, which looked like the Bible, appeared in her hand.
Honjo Niya flipped through the obituary and said in surprise:
"Oh my, so I came to ask you how to deal with the 'Death God Elementary School Student' who was detained yesterday~"
"I was planning to report the situation to Speaker Klein, but because I didn't have your permission, it got stuck at the procedure?"
"Oh, there's also the matter of Eriri-san... After learning what happened at the Sawamura household yesterday, are you worried about how to improve security at home? Yukino-san is really cute~"
Listening to Honjo Niya's explanation, Luo Shu unpacked the disposable chopsticks and placed them next to the lunch box, while turning his head and saying:
"Is this what you do every day with your obituary?"
"if not?"
Honjo Niya turned around, lying on the bed, holding his cheek with one hand, and said lazily:
"Don't you think it's interesting?"
"Without leaving the house, you can see gossip from all over the world, even the privacy that some people don't want to disclose, and eat gossip that others can't eat or finish. Isn't this interesting?"
Luo Shu nodded upon hearing this, and then said calmly:
"I can now understand why you are such a 'physical loser'."
Hearing this, Honjo Niya was stunned at first, then immediately blushed after realizing what was happening, and said in panic:
"This is an attack! An absolute personal attack!!"
"You know, I lasted for an hour last night, okay? And if you hadn't sucked away the negative state from me, I could have lasted longer, okay? ~"
After saying this, Honjo Niya muttered, "Besides, who knows, this kind of exercise will hurt after a long time..."
Luo Shu did not respond when he saw this. He just opened the lunch box, picked up a piece of pork chop, blocked Honjo Niya's mouth, and said calmly:
"Before I ask you anything, let's replenish our energy first."
"Oh." Honjo Niya chewed the pork chop and ate it vaguely, then glanced at Luo Shu. He inexplicably remembered something and his face suddenly turned red.
Luo Shu glanced at her and said nothing, but asked calmly:
". 'What is the purpose of the Hell Cult? Can you tell me now?"
"It's not impossible for me to tell you now, but..." Honjo Niya opened his mouth slightly and let out an "ah".
Seeing this, Luo Shu picked up a piece of fried egg for her with an expressionless face.
"Hum~"
Honjo Niya happily ate the food Luo Shu brought her, and said while refusing:
"This time the Hell Cult came to the island nation with two goals."
"One of them is the 'Stargate' held by the SDS. It is said that it is what a certain Grand Duke of Hell has his eyes on."
"The second one is the Flame Demon Advent Plan mentioned earlier."
"This plan was proposed by a Viscount of Hell."
"The specific plan was blocked by the Viscount of Hell. However, it is nothing more than using faith and other means to pull the 'Flame Demon' in the chaotic abyss into reality, and use the Akihabara Great Barrier to suppress the 'immortality' of the Flame Demon, thereby creating an opportunity to kill or capture it."
Having said that, Honjo Niya looked up at Luo Shu, as if waiting for Luo Shu's question.
Luo Shu did not let her wait too long, and quickly asked calmly:
"Enma, it's Gokawa Kotori, right?"
"Bingo~ Correct."
Honjo Niya snapped his fingers, and then said to Luo Shu with a smile:
"Sure enough, after I told you that Gokawa Kotori existed in this world, you immediately thought of her, Luo Shu."
"Well, would you like to guess why the Viscount of Hell wants Kotori-chan?"
Listening to what Honjo Niya said, Luo Shu frowned and asked seriously:
"Is it because of... the ceremony?" Xian.
Chapter 127 Class Oppression in True Hell
Real hell.
Hearing this term, Luo Shu's eyes became solemn.
During last night's 'waist force coordinated combination action', Luo Shu got some information about the real hell from Honjo Niya.
Therefore, Luo Shu also had a certain understanding of the real hell.
In his opinion.
The real hell is a terrifying 'world' that is a mixture and intensification of the descriptions of demons in mythology.
In the real hell, strength is the most important thing among the strong, and power is their class.
Under this tone, life in real hell is particularly terrifying.
Generally speaking, after the life in the true hell is born, the lowest level demon is also the excellent level among the mysterious side of human beings, which can be said to be one in ten thousand among human beings.
The offspring of a few high-level demons are born elite, and some pure-blooded ones are even born heroic. With a little training, they can become infinitely close to demigods.
Therefore, in the real hell, the real elite, the ones who can truly call themselves "demons", are only those demigod demons who have obtained the "title".
Those below the rank of Noble Demon can only be considered as 'commoners' among demons, the grassroots civilians who are ruled.
The ones that Truth Astronomy and the Hell Cult come into contact with the most are these civilian demons, and only a few will encounter those with 'noble bloodline', but these numbers are extremely rare.
Therefore, there are those lawless "invasion factions" in Truth Astronomy, who develop their own class system based on seizing the power of demons.
Although the Hell Cult is relatively respectful to the demons, they will not hesitate to use these demons as cannon fodder when encountering certain situations.
The core reason why humans are so arrogant towards demons is because these 'Demons 717' are a vulnerable group and a group of people without a voice.
These demon civilians can only be described as a race of 'demons', but they are still far from wanting to call themselves 'such and such demons'.
To truly call oneself a devil, one must at least complete the devil's promotion ceremony, become a demigod devil, and be granted the title of "Baron".
Therefore, there is a situation where demon civilians are ruled by titled demons and oppressed by humans and their power is taken away.
Often, the favorite thing of these demon civilians is to call themselves a certain demon, or even a certain baron, to satisfy their desire to be powerful.
But to the real titled demons, these demons are no different from the inferior races among humans who clamor to be the 'chosen people of God'.
They know they don't have it, but they still desire to become that powerful person, so they talk about these things all the time.
The titled demons are disdainful of this, and because such demons are unlikely to appear in reality, most of the demons active in Luo Shu's world are actually demon civilians.
Only pure-blooded demons like Kisara have a higher status, probably the illegitimate daughter of a certain viscount or even earl.
"However, I didn't expect that the one targeting Kotori would be a viscount."
Thinking about the meaning of Viscount, Luo Shu also had a headache.
Barons, as the first initial level of the demon ruling class, are not rare in the real hell, but they are also (badi) uncommon. They can often command an entire demon town, and are one in a million among the demons.
And the viscount is above the baron.
They are beings that have evolved again after realizing the unique demonic powers.
In the SDS evaluation system, Viscount is a high-ranking existence at the "Apostle" level.
He is a person of high rank who can suppress even a demigod with great strength.
Even in the real hell, he is still a regional bully or a local warlord.
And now, a viscount, an apostle-level being, is targeting Gokawa Kotori, and is determined to get her even if he cannot come in person... No matter how dumb Luo Shu is, he can think of the problem.
"By the way, how did you come up with the idea that the reason was the promotion ceremony?" Honjo Niya was full of curiosity.
Luo Shu had already thought of it before she even gave any hints, which made her feel no sense of accomplishment as a 'mentor' at all!
