Chapter 138 - China P-1

Daniele pov

 

I looked into Lavinia's half-open eyes.

 

"Keep sleeping, Lavinia."

 

"I~ need to~ see you off~"

 

She spoke in a half-asleep voice.

 

With a warm smile, I touched her forehead and pushed body as she tried to sit up.

 

"Go to sleep, anyway... I've already received my farewell reward~"

 

Lavinia pouted as I spoke in a mischievous tone.

 

"Bully~"

 

As she said this, her eyes slowly closed.

 

I quietly left the room, giving one last smile to the two girls who continued to sleep with regular breathing.

 

..........

 

As I descended the stairs, I was drawn to the intense 'Ki'.

 

"Look, look~ someone finally ended their 'passionate' night."

 

Via said, lying in the couch, Aside from the mischievousness in her voice, her current outfit was even more attention-grabbing.

 

[You're drooling]

 

 

I ignored him.

 

Right now I'd rather look at my sexy wife.

 

She was wearing a white pajama set with tiger stripes.

 

Her short pajama accentuated her voluptuous hips while showcasing her attractive, firm legs, and on top a few buttons on her top were half-undone, revealing a hidden treasure.

I did the most sensible thing, I went over and lay down on the couch next to her.

 

Via giggled and moved aside, or rather, while I lay down, she lay on top of me.

 

"Well, you didn't answer my question."

 

She wrapped her arms around my neck and rested her forehead against mine.

 

"Well, I can't deny it... it was a fantastic night."

 

"Hmph, scoundrel"

 

"That was a bit harsh."

 

I reached out and pinched her cheek.

 

Via smiled and her lips touched mine.

 

I ran my hands through her hair and replied.

 

Our bodies stirred slightly, our lips parting and then quickly coming together again.

 

Her lips were so sweet.

 

"You two ~ don't do that in the living room!"

 

Before we could understand what was happening, we were both suddenly hit with a paper fan.

 

"What's your problem, Irina? Can't you show your jealousy in another way?!"

 

While Via was complaining, I nodded my head while looking at my chestnut

 

"Don't ask me what my problem is! Do that in room, look at poor them!"

 

Via and I turned our heads away at Irina's words.

 

Rossweisse was standing there with a red face.

 

Ravel's eyebrows twitched beside her

 

 Her ears were red too, but most of all she seemed jealous.

 

Via looked at me, then at them, then back at me again.

 

She shrugged.

 

"They can join"

 

That's my girl~

 

After winking at two shy girls while stroking Via's hair, a delicate hand reached out and pinched me.

 

"Look at you, are you being a bit too flirtatious today?"

 

Akemi said, squeezing my cheek hard, but I don't really feel it with my body though.

 

"Jewawus?"

 

Akemi rolled her eyes, leaned down and kissed me on the forehead.

 

"Come on, don't keep them waiting too long."

 

As she released my cheek, I asked permission to Via.

 

But Via showed no intention of getting up; her brown eyes were fixed on me expectantly... she wants a kiss, doesn't she?

 

Of course, after I kissed her again, she got off me with a satisfied expression.

 

"Has Shigune already left?"

 

I asked while smoothing the wrinkles out of my clothes.

 

Via was quite mischievous there.

 

But Shigune isn't around and I'm wondering

 

"Yes, Dany-san, Shigune-san left early, I think they had to go ahead."

 

I got up completely while thanking Asia.

 

We didn't go together because we weren't really going sightseeing, this was an official visit, Shigune is a direct member of Grigori so she had to go with them, just like I went with my Heaven Group.

Of course, my gaze also fell on the Phenex princess; she, too, needed to leave separately.

 

Ravel averted her gaze from mine with a fake cough

 

"I... I don't want to leave without saying goodbye to Daniele-sama."

 

... tsunderes are the best!

 

[I thought Tomboys were your favorite.]

 

 

{Greed unworthy of an Angel}

 

[That's right! Tell her, partner!]

 

{*Sigh* Men}

 

/ [Ah, shut up....]

 

While the we were rapidly debating in my mind, I had already approached Ravel.

 

"What kind of goodbye?"

 

There was a distinct sarcasm in my tone, but anyway, the girl opposite me was a Pureblood Devil, there's no need to exaggerate things like that.

 

Ravel's beautiful deep blue eyes finally locked directly onto mine; suddenly, as she rose on his tiptoes, fire wings appeared on her back.

 

As her arms wrapped around my neck, her soft lips touched my cheek.

 

Chu~

 

Ravel quickly pulled away, her face flushed red, and stepped back, leaving one last whisper before disappearing as the orange Phenex Magic Circle beneath her glowed with flames.

 

"…...See you in China"

 

I couldn't help but chuckle at the shy little bird.

 

*Stare~~~*

 

Hmm???

 

When I turned my head, I saw many different looks directed at me, a mixture of amusement, envy, frowning, and anticipation—a multitude of emotions. 

 

Yes, they want it too, who am I to refuse my wives' wishes?

 

 

After kissing the girls goodbye and hugging Rossweisse and Ophis, it was time to set off.

 

----------------------

 

Church

 

I headed towards the meeting area while getting dressed; I'd be lying if I said I wasn't curious, after all, meeting the new Angels would be interesting.

 

Michael stood there with a smile, beside him a figure fully clad in white knight's armor.

 

The armor covered him completely, showing no skin.

They both noticed me naturally.

 

Michael only smiled, but the knight struck his chest while making an exaggeratedly metallic sound.

 

"Haha! Greetings, Sir Daniele!"

 

Sir Daniele?

 

[Wonderful, first a ninja, now a knight]

 

I chuckled inwardly at his words; after all, this person was probably Sandalphon, and a twin brother of Metatron.

 

"I believe you are Mr. Sandalphon "

 

Judging by the Holy Power emanating from his body, he was undoubtedly Seraph, but it's best to be sure.

 

"Umu! So my achievements have reached your ears!"

 

Out of the corner of my eye, I glanced at Michael, whose mouth twitched slightly.

 

"Actually... not really?"

 

I said it in a strange way, and Seraph, who was standing in front of me, froze just as sharply.

 

"....Ah"

 

But then he regained his energy and stomped his foot on the ground.

 

"No problem! You'll hear a lot more about it in the future."

 

In the end, all I could do was nod my head with a smile.

 

"By the way, Am I the first one here? ?"

 

There was no one else besides me.

 

But they both looked at each other...then they turned to me.

 

"Actually, you were the last one left."

 

Sandalphon said this.

 

.....Oops

 

Suddenly the door opened and an angry voice was heard.

 

"Damn it! Hasn't that guy arrived yet!?"

 

The little girl's voice was like a gangster shouting words...that was essentially the sound.

 

When I turned to the source of the voice, let's just say it matched my guess exactly.

 

There, leaning against the door, was the 'little girl'; she looked a little taller in Koneko.

 

Her long black hair cascaded down her shoulders, and her yellow eyes were filled with displeasure.

 

She was wearing a mini skirt, protective shorts underneath, a school uniform jacket, and a leather jacket with a tiger on the back.

"Ah, so you've arrived!"

 

As soon as she saw me, walked towards me angrily.

 

She pointed at me with the iron pipe in her hand.

 

"What right do you have to make us all wait, damn it!"

 

"I am sorry?"

 

I told her, and in a way she was right.

 

I wasted a lot of time with girls, and I don't regret it, of course.

 

"Ah... okay, but don't let it happen again!"

 

She complained while leaning the pipe against her shoulder.

 

"Hehe~ Kaname-chan is so cute~"

 

Suddenly, a girl with black and white hair hugged her from behind.

 

"You! Stay away, you crazy woman!"

 

As I angrily tried to push away the man whose name was now revealed to be 'Kaname', I glanced at the familiar girl; was she going to be on mission too?

 

The girl grinned at me as I stared.

 

"Hello Paisen! It's been a while."

 

Lint winked at me playfully.

 

"Yeah, I'm surprised you're here."

 

She puffed out her chest proudly.

 

She was dressed own typical Exorcist attire: a one-piece fitted suit over denim shorts and a leather jacket.

 

The third person was a man who looked about my age.

 

His short hair and focused eyes were locked on me.He possesses slender and nimble fingers, with broad palms that has been forged hard and solid through training.

 

Regular blue jeans, black hooded jacket, and camouflage pattern.

Undoubtedly a martial artist.

 

Especially his eyes... yes, another war maniac.......

 

......

 

"I, Ryuu Heikan, Lord Raziel's Ten , I am Chinese and I practice martial arts."

 

"Hey Paisen! Well, I guess there's no point in introducing myself because you already know me ~ but I'll do it anyway ♪ I'm Lint Sellzen, and I'm currently auditioning for Junior Saint."

 

"Junior Saint?"

 

What is that?

 

"Ah, this is essentially a trial period for those who are suitable for Brave Saint."

 

Michael took the time to explain.

 

But why weren't the girls subjected to such a thing...? Because we both know the highest level of secrets, like the death of God, and we grew up under the tutelage of Vasco and Griselda, yes, that's normal.

 

Let's go back to the last girl.

 

"Tora Kaname, first name Kaname, Kuoh City Destroy High School Banchou, first year student"

 

Wait, isn't that the crime school? Kind of like the Ishiyama equivalent of DxD, I think.

 

Then her gaze shifted to the armored Seraph behind me.

 

"I am Horii-sama's Ace"

 

Another Ace!

 

One minute...Horii??

 

Where exactly did I hear this name?

 

Was Sandalphon's name mentioned in the main story? That's strange.

 

"Young lady, you should call me Sir Sandalphon outside."

 

Sandalphon said, placing his hands at his sides.

 

"Understood, Horii-sama"

 

Kaname nodded her head.

 

Yes, they definitely suit each other.

 

"Okay, Now let's get to the point."

 

Michael started speaking, capturing everyone's attention.

 

"The Agreement Meeting will begin in 7 days. You will be flying there , essentially before us. Your aim is to assess the situation and learn the background without attracting too much attention."

 

We all nodded as Michael continued.

 

"Daniele will serve as mission leader until we arrive. Don't forget to provide regular reports. The situation in China is very complicated right now, but there's definitely something sinister going on behind the scenes. We won't fall into a trap.Go to the churches there to gather intelligence, understood?"

 

""""Roger""""

 

The four of us said it at the same time.

 

Michael looked at us with a kind smile.

 

"Great, your most important priority is your own safety, don't forget that. Now, set off."

 

With Michael's words, we boarded the private plane. Of course, I would love to be able to teleport, but not right now. The situation in China is complicated, and there are also issues regarding political respect and so on.

 

"Stay away from me, you human-shaped color palette!"

 

"Haha♪ Come on Ka-na-me-cwan~ Let's sit together~"

 

"Don't call me like that!"

 

Ryuu and I are sitting side by side watching Lint and Kaname.

 

"They get along quite well."

 

Ryuu chuckled at my words.

 

"I thought the same thing."

 

Then he looked at me......

 

"What?"

 

He was looking quite interesting.

 

"Nothing, we were just curious, the famous Joker and one of the two reincarnated Kings of the new generation."

 

I gave him a blank stare.

 

"...did you just lie?"

 

"...."

 

He just smiled.

 

His words were partly, if not entirely, a lie; as for his real intentions, I actually understood.....

 

"...you thought about how you were going to beat me, didn't you?"

 

"Haha, I got caught"

 

Here's a war fanatic for you.

 

"Okay, we'll fight sometime."

 

Yes, it's definitely your fault, Vali, you've turned me into a war fanatic too!

 

After that, we focused on the journey. Italy and Hong Kong (where we'll be go) were quite long, but the supernatural benefit of taking a plane cut the time in half, though it's still long, so....zzzzzz~

 

I slept

 

 --------------------

 

Hong Kong

 

Third Person POV

 

With its numerous towering buildings and crowds of people, Hong Kong had largely the same characteristics as America.

 

Impartiality

 

As one of the neutral spaces in the world, this place was home to many different supernatural beings, an area left powerless and uncontrolled by the Five Divine Beasts that ruled China's mortal realm.

 

An ideal place to meet representatives from different Pantheon s!

 

Daniele's first order of business upon arriving here was to change the currency; he didn't want to deal with this problem.

 

Kaname and Ryuu had similar ideas as well.

 

"I'm broke, buy me , Paisen!"

 

Lint, without any shame, rubbed her hands behind head and asked Daniele for pocket money.

 

Daniele gave her a blank stare, but finally sighed as he cupped his face in his hands.

 

"I'm worried about your future... anyway, take it."

 

Daniele gave him a rather thick wad of Hong Kong dollars; money wasn't much of a problem, after all, he was now quite rich.

 

"Yay!"

 

Lint shamelessly snatched the wad.

 

Meanwhile, Kaname and Ryuu were also giving them strange looks, Ryuu was thinking whether to laugh or not, while Kaname grumbled.

 

After obtaining sufficient cash there and witnessing the satisfied tears of the man working there, the group of four, led by Daniele continued on their way.

 

Sandalphon had mentioned that there would be someone to meet them when they got off the plane, so they sorted out the money first, and now they can go straight there.

 

A smiling man greeted them there.

 

His long black hair flowed like a waterfall, his blue eyes were filled with serenity, and he was almost two meters taller than Daniele.

 

He was wearing a suit that fit him well.

The moment Daniele saw him, he smelled dragons, bulls, and storms, and most importantly...

 

'God-level, Low~Mid, I'm not entirely sure, but it's not High. but definitely God.'

 

Daniele narrowed his eyes at the man, who then introduced himself.

 

"Greetings, Members of the Celestial Sect, I, Long Aotian, am here to guide you."

 

[*Whistle* I call that an arrogant name]

 

Daniele couldn't help but agree with him.

 

Dragon Proud Sky = Long Aotian

 

This name was especially used for characters like Mary Sue and Gary Stu.

 

Daniele reached out and shook the hand he offered.

 

"Daniele 'Abe' Berti, I hope we didn't keep you waiting too long."

 

"Haha, of course not, I was a little late myself."

 

They both smiled at each other.

 

Long Aotian then led everyone to a very long, luxurious limousine.

 

"You are not sparing any expense."

 

Daniele knew the price of that thing perfectly well; it was a completely new, modified version.

 

"Hmm? Of course, guests should be treated well, after all."

 

Long Aotian said this with an innocent smile.

 

The sheep-headed driver waiting there nodded to them and slowly opened the door.

 

Daniele, Ryuu, Kaname, and Lint sat down somewhere, while Long Aotian sat directly opposite them.

 

He handed me a bucket filled with ice and drinks.

 

"Something to drink"

 

Daniele shuddered at the thought of getting drunk here.

 

"No thanks"

 

Ryuu arrived right after.

 

"I'm not drinking, the numbness in my body is bothering me."

 

Long Aotian nodded to both of them.

 

"Ah, actually I'll take it---"

 

Before Lint could finish his sentence, Kaname grabbed her by her bun and pulled her into the chair.

 

"Pain, pain, pain! It hurts, Kaname-chin!"

 

"Don't talk to me like that! And you're not even of legal age yet!"

 

When Long Aotian realized they wouldn't drink it, he poured himself a glass with an elegant air.

 

"I think you're still adhering to human rules."

 

He murmured as he gently licked them while taking a sip.

 

"This is normal, after all, those who don't know their past cannot shape their future."

 

Ryuu said, looking into his eyes, his voice filled with conviction and determination, and Daniele nodded in agreement beside him.

 

Long Aotian didn't answer, he just let out a soft, gentle chuckle.

 

The rest of the journey was relatively quiet after that.

 

........

 

Peninsula Hotel

 

This hotel, known as one of the best in Hong Kong in the colonial style,

 

It was a very luxurious hotel with a slightly old-fashioned style.

 

"Guests will be staying here, don't worry, everything is free and I assure you the facilities are first-class."

 

Long Aotian guided them.

 

There were security guards at the entrance who looked at them respectfully; Daniele could feel the supernatural energy emanating from them just by looking at them, they were at least of the Middle Class.

"You must be tired from the journey on your first day, so I'll let you rest and enjoy the hotel. I'll send a tour guide for you tomorrow."

 

"Oh, there's no need for that, I'm practically from around here, so I can handle the guiding part."

 

Ryuu raised his hand but refused his offer of help.

 

Daniele offered his support by placing his hand on his shoulder.

 

"Hmm, ultimately it's more fun when you discover it yourself."

 

Although Kaname didn't answer, she let out a grunt of approval.

 

"Hehe~ Let's have an adventure!"

 

Lint raised her fist in the air.

 

Long Aotian shrugged as he looked at the group.

 

"Of course, if that's your wish, still be careful not to get lost."

 

He snapped his fingers after saying those words.

 

An attractive woman in a miniskirt handed them a metal tray with a professional expression on her face; the tray contained keys with room numbers on it.

 

"Are there three here?"

 

Kaname looked at them, raising one eyebrow; her expression was far from happy.

 

But the female officer quickly explained

 

"No no, actually one of our guests said he arranged a shared room with Mr. Daniele 'Abe' Berti, and that was approved by upper management, so..."

 

As the three of them watched Daniele, the young lion king quickly looked in a specific direction, sensing the presence .

 

There, descending the stairs, was a dazzling beauty with dark golden hair.

 

Her blue and black/grey eyes looked at him with an undeniable love and affection.

 

Her hair was styled in a twin ponytail, and she wore a light blue Cheongsam adorned with white rose patterns.

 

The cutout at the chest just below the neckline and the long fabric at the bottom gave her an alluring and indescribable sexiness.

Shigune, for her part, was pleased that Daniele's mouth was left open as he stared at her

 

"Paisen is drooling."

 

Lint's warning brought Daniele back to his senses, and he reached for his mouth, but there was no wetness...

 

"Pffftttt-----"

 

Daniele later decided to teach that brat a lesson.

 

For now, all his attention was on his exceptionally beautiful wife (fiancée) who came and took his arm.

 

"It took too long~"

 

Daniele smiled, captivated by her playful demeanor, and kissed her on the cheek.

 

"The flight took a long time."

 

The two of them were lost in their own worlds as they gazed at each other with love----

 

*Applause*

 

"Truly a match from heaven, Xiao Daniele and Junior Taotie"

 

Long Aotian said, clapping his hand slowly.

 

"Well, I'll leave now, I wish you a good rest."

 

As Long Aotian departed, the woman also left respectfully.

 

Daniele looked at the three people staring at him, then at the uniquely beautiful woman who wrapped her arm around his.

 

"Okay... I think Long Aotian is right, go and rest, we'll start work tomorrow."

 

Daniele said this as he and Shigune got ready to go up to their room.

 

He completely ignored Lint's "have fun" or Kaname's "you bastard," he certainly didn't speed up because of them, no sir. Absolutely not.

 

Ryuu shrugged and headed towards his room.

 

"Okay Ka~na~me~chin~ shall we take a bath together?"

 

Hearing Lint's voice sent a shiver down Kaname's entire body, and her hairs stood on end.

 

"No! Stay away from me, you crazy woman!"

 

Lint burst into laughter at Kaname as she ran away.

 

"*Laughs* I'll tease her later, let's try out this luxurious hotel now!"

 

Lint ran towards her room.

 

.......

 

Daniele and Shigune arrived at a room on a relatively upper floor

 

Daniele opened the door and closed it behind her as Shigune entered the room.

 

At that moment, Shigune leaped on top of him and pressed her lips against his.

 

Daniele, without hesitation, moved one hand to her soft legs and hips beneath her Cheongsam, while wrapping his other hand around her narrow waist.

 

As Shigune let out a moan, the two moved towards the bed, kissing and passionately exchanging glances.

 

As they descended onto the huge bed, they burrowed under the blanket, which completely enveloped them, but from beneath it, their pants, jackets, trench coats, cheongsams, and bras leaped out.

 

Even an idiot would figure out what's under the blanket right now.

 

Miles away, on another rooftop, two people with binoculars naturally understood.

 

"...do we have to watch these two?"

 

The man in the black robe complained there.

 

The man next to him also shook his head sharply.

 

"Yes, the boss wanted it that way, and I'm not happy about it either, but that's our job, so we were hired."

 

These two came from a group of supernatural bounty hunters.

 

As the two sighed, their gaze turned to a secret, passionate encounter under the blanket.

 

.....to the unreal scene!

 

Interdimensional Room

 

Daniele and Shigune sat opposite each other, examining documents with coffee and biscuits in front of them.

 

Yes, the scene outside was entirely an illusion.

 

Neither Daniele nor Shigune were newcomers to the supernatural world.

 

Before Daniele closed the door, he installed a doorknob, and created a layered illusion spell.

 

Of course, it wasn't normal illusion magic.

 

Divine Power + Human magic and Light Power with light refraction + Infusion

 

Yes, Daniele could now use the infusion, albeit with difficulty; of course, it was FAR inferior in quality to his Balance Breaker, but even that was an achievement, remember, he hadn't even used his Longinus for this!!!

 

In addition, Daniele certainly wouldn't allow anyone else to see his future wife's body, not even an illusion, so the whole thing would take place under a blanket. So why such a scene? Of course, to torture them, who would want to stand there idly on the roof watching someone else's happiness, even Daniele's illusion later set up flirtatious scenes?

 

"So what information is there?"

 

While Daniele was asking the question, Shigune handed him the documents.

 

"Long Aotian, who is leading you, seems to be a student of Huánglóng, at least one of them, and his reputation is incredibly good."

 

Daniele nodded as he examined the document.

 

"Look, what about the other one?"

 

Shigune showed the other document.

 

"Lei Tianwu, aka Crazy Lan (Blue), is essentially treated like a demolition machine...and he has caused a lot of destruction."

 

"These individuals can also be considered potential suspects then."

 

Shigune nodded to Daniele.

 

"That's true, but we can't be sure, the situation is very delicate.Here, Azazel advised us to find someone named 'Gongzi' (Young Master), who is apparently some kind of underground information source in Hong Kong."

 

"Where will we find it?"

 

"I have no idea, but apparently it hangs out at luxury nightclubs."

 

Daniele frowned.

 

"Well... it looks like we'll be doing a lot of 'hanging' tomorrow."

 

Shigune continued as he mumbled

 

"Also, going to places frequented by high society can provide useful information, at least a few extra connections."

 

"Good idea."

 

From then on, while the two continued to share information, the two lookouts outside inflicted creative torture upon them.

 

After this?

 

The next day

 

Daniele slowly opened his eyes and looked at the beautiful woman in pajamas beside him; her breathing was regular, and she had her arms wrapped around him.

 

Daniele woke her by leaning down and kissing her on the lips.

 

Shigune slowly opened her eyes, squinting for a moment to adjust, then looked at Daniele, pulling herself closer and burying her face in his neck.

 

Daniele gently stroked her hair with a smile.

 

"We need to get up, we have work to do."

 

Shigune got up, letting out a few grumbles.

 

"Fine~"

 

Sitting on the edge of the bed, she glanced at Daniele out of the corner of her eye, running her fingers through the hair that flow down her back.

 

Daniele certainly knew what she wanted.

 

He picked up the comb he'd taken from the Space Storage.

 

He combed her hair with such care and tenderness, as if he were afraid of breaking it.

 

He combed and straightened her hair.

 

"It feels good~"

 

"I can do it anytime if you want."

 

Daniele said in a loving tone, putting lust and eroticism aside, spending time with her like this right now was more valuable.

 

"Can you do my hair too?"

 

".....ponytail"

 

"*giggle* Can't you make a twintail?"

 

"Excuse me, Shigune, it's officially impossible to make those braided crowns, how do you girls do it?!"

 

There was a smug undertone in Shigune's reply.

 

"Talent♪"

 

Daniele let out a grunt.

 

He slowly tied her hair into a high ponytail.

 

At that moment, her neck was also visible.

 

After Daniele finished styling her hair, he had a slightly mischievous expression on his face when he suddenly hugged her from behind and kissed her neck.

 

"Hya!"

 

Shigune let out a sweet cry of surprise, while Daniele's hands went to her sides.

 

"Hahahaha! Stop....than--hahaha~--"

 

"Call husband~"

 

Daniele grinned.

 

"Hahah-husband~~hahaha....pffft--husband!-haha---"

 

Daniele withdrew his hand with a satisfied expression, and Shigune collapsed breathlessly into his arms, tears welling up in her eyes and her chest heaving.

 

"You... You big meanie!"

 

Shigune pushed him onto the bed as she turned his back, her cheeks puffed out with displeasure.

 

Daniele was captivated by the mature woman standing above him, her cheeks puffed out and radiating sweetness.

 

Shigune leaned down and bit....

 

--------------------

 

Daniele manipulated the illusion from the outside.

 

He timed it so that he and Shigune would exit through the door at the same time.

 

Shigune happily clung to his arm while Daniele stroked his own neck and lips with his other free hand... Shigune had left her mark.

 

There, the church crew were sitting together having breakfast, a special meal.

 

They also had a familiar Fallen with silver hair with them.

 

Shemhazai

 

"Shemhazai! How are you?"

 

Daniele wasted no time in greeting him cheerfully, pulled up a chair and sat down beside Shigune.

 

"I'm fine. I just came to keep Shigune, just in case."

 

"Thanks then."

 

Shigune nodded in agreement, while Daniele offered his thanks to Shemhazai.

 

"What will you do next?"

 

As Shemhazai asked the question, Daniele was about to quickly erect a soundproof barrier around them...but he noticed there was already one.

 

When he looked, Shemhazai simply smiled and, without using words, said that he was the one who had done it.

 

"There's someone selling information, we'll call him, maybe we'll learn more interesting things about what's going on behind the scenes."

 

Shigune announced the plan.

 

"Ah, yes, 'Gongzi' is definitely a good place for information, but bring some sweets with you, it like them."

 

"So you know it, huh? Then why don't you tell us where it is and save us from having to search it?"

 

Kaname leaned on her hand, her sharp yellow eyes locked on Shemhazai.

 

"Well, I'm sorry about that, but that pinky moves around a lot."

 

'''''''Pinky '''''''

 

That was their shared thought: what kind of code name is Pinky???

 

"So, are we going to leave like this?"

 

Ryuu pointed to the group.

 

But Daniele intervened and refused.

 

"No, we're still waiting for some people."

 

"Oh, Paisen's other lovers?"

 

Lint asked curiously, clearly very interested in the topic.

 

"No~ she's not my lover....yet when you think "

 

Silence enveloped the room, and as for Ryuu, even though he was a war fanatic, he couldn't help but give Daniele a thumbs-up in his heart.

 

'Respect.'

 

.......

 

A figure was waiting at the hotel entrance.

 

Her twin-drill style blonde hair lay down on either side of her head, diamond earrings dangling from her ears, and a wing-shaped necklace around her neck shimmered in the sunlight.

 

The long white skirt and fitted black shirt, complemented by a jacket, gave her a very classy look.

 

It also beautifully accentuated her attractive physique, which didn't quite suit her age.

 

If you look closely, the lip gloss she wears shimmers; you'll undoubtedly look at her again when you passes by.

But sadly, this stunning beauty didn't care about them at all.

 

She was waiting for someone else.

 

And as soon as that person stepped out the door, her stern expression melted away, replaced by a bright smile, but she quickly concealed it with a fake cough.

 

Those around him wondered who he was looking at, but the moment they saw, they wanted to swear at him.

 

Because the man she was looking directly at had a mature and beautiful woman, no less attractive than her, on his arm.

 

"Welcome Daniele-sama"

 

"You're welcome, Ravel, not me."

 

Daniele greeted his secretary, Ravel's gaze lingered for a moment on Daniele's empty left side...and then shifted there.

 

She reached out and took Daniele's hand, her ears turning red.

 

"The car is over there, let's go."

 

Ravel accompanied him as e around him wondered who he was looking at, but the moment they saw, they wanted to swear at him.

 

Because the man she was looking directly at had a mature and beautiful woman, no less attractive than her, on his arm.

 

"Welcome Daniele-sama"

 

"You're welcome, Ravel, not me."

 

Daniele greeted his secretary, Ravel's gaze lingered for a moment on Daniele's empty left side...and then shifted there.

 

She reached out and took Daniele's hand, her ears turning red.

 

"The car is over there, let's go."

 

Ravel accompanied him as she said this.

 

The three people behind him looked at Daniele, who had two girls on either side of him, and then at each other.

 

"As expected from Paisen"

 

Lint wasn't surprised at all.

 

It would be strange if it weren't like this.

 

Ryuu was calmer, more focused on the fact that Daniele was quite close to both the Devil and Fallen sides.

 

'I wonder if I should ask him to set up a rival for me?'

 

As for Kaname...

 

'What's the deal with this guy?'

 

Kaname had good instincts; her appointment as head of the delinquent school was proof of that.

 

The moment she saw Daniele, she realized she couldn't beat him.

 

But that didn't bother her; after all, she defeated people she hadn't been able to beat before.

 

But she was also certain that he wasn't a bad person; the worst part was that Heaven's so-called pride was a lecher!

 

Anyway, Kaname hasn't made a decision yet, and she'll make her decision about him eventually!

 

"Hmm, come here."

 

When Daniele saw her hesitate, he called out.

 

"Yes, yes, I'm coming!"

 

Kaname grumbled and ran after him.

 

A little further on, there was a luxury car, and a familiar blonde man was in the passenger seat.

 

Riser was chewing gum with sunglasses on, and Xuelan was leaning against his chest.

 

Riser raised an eyebrow from behind his glasses as he looked at Daniele's group.

 

"Bro, you're quite a large group."

 

He looked at Kaname and Lint for one more moment----

 

*Bamm*

 

Suddenly, an ice ball hit him on the head.

 

Riser chuckled as he stroked his own head, while Daniele raised an eyebrow at him.

 

"Yeah yeah bro, I got the message."

 

Then Riser took out his phone and called someone.

 

"Send a car here...yes...yes...no...not entirely...anyway, bring it!"

 

Riser hung up the phone while shouting.

 

He then turned to the group.

 

"Wait a minute, I ordered a car."

 

True to Riser's words, a car sped up and arrived 1.5 minutes later.

 

A luxury jeep arrived, where the driver rolled down the window and nodded respectfully to Riser and Ravel.

 

"Young Master, Young Lady, I have come at your request."

 

"Thanks Jonathan, follow my brother's car."

 

As soon as Ravel said this, she with Shigune pulled Daniele into the car.

 

Riser completely ignored it, his reaction to his sister walking towards her bro—or rather, practically running towards him—was simply to pretend he didn't see anything.

 

Riser was driving while Daniele sat in the back seat with two beautiful women on either side of him.

 

"Hey bro, how are you?"

 

"I should ask you, Riser, is there a particular reason for being in China?"

 

Riser chuckled at his question.

 

"I come here a lot, I'd say it's my favorite place outside of the Underworld."

 

"Really? Why?"

 

As Shigune asked the question, Ravel covered her face with her hand, already guessing what he was going to say.

 

"Because I am a young master!"

 

Daniele:???

 

Shigune:???

 

Ravel : (⁠╯⁠°⁠□⁠°⁠)⁠╯⁠︵⁠ ⁠┻⁠━⁠┻

 

Ravel looked ready to punch something.

 

"I, Riser, am undoubtedly a young gentleman! I have money! I have a harem! My family is alive! I'm a first-class playboy! If I declare myself second, who would call themselves first, hahahaha!!!"

 

Daniele didn't say a word, he just looked at Ravel.

 

"Please Daniele-sama... avoid looking at me right now."

 

"Fine"

 

Daniele didn't look at her.

 

........

 

One after another two luxury cars parked, equally luxurious, at the entrance of the hotel.

 

A strange group in different clothes got off there.

 

While Ravel wore the same classic attire, Xuelan and Shigune wore Cheongsam.

 

Daniele, Ryuu, and Lint were wearing Exorcist outfits.

 

Kaname wearing school uniform

 

The security guard initially considered intervening, but when he saw the third son of the Phenex family, who was wearing a kimono for some reason, he quickly stepped back and opened the door for him.

 

Riser was quite famous here.

 

There was a lively atmosphere with music and alcohol, where many people were dancing and having fun; there were some sexy pole dancers and shirtless, muscular, thin men.

 

Riser took Daniele with him while leaving the others to VIP service at the club.

 

He arrived accompanied by Riser, facing a specific man.

 

The man had gelled hair combed back, wore sunglasses on his head and collar, and was adorned with jewelry.

 

"Ah, young master Riser! Welcome!"

 

The man brought his hand and fist together and saluted Riser, his expression clearly showing his excitement at seeing him.

 

Daniele looked at the man and Riser, and naturally, the situation quickly became clear in his mind.

 

'Riser is probably paying this guy a lot of money.'

 

"Yes, Yi Chen, let's get to the point. My bro is looking for an information broker, and you're going to find him for me."

 

"Of course, Young Master Riser, who are you looking for?"

 

Daniele was the one who needed to say it here.

 

"Someone named 'Gongzi' "

 

At that moment, the man named Yi Chen froze.

 

Riser raised an eyebrow as Daniele watched him carefully.

 

"I-I'm sorry, young master Riser, but I---"

 

*Bang!*

 

Riser slammed a hard object onto the table, the kind of thing you'd know what happened the moment you looked at it.

 

......Gold bar

 

"Young Master, you don't understand----"

 

*Bang!*

 

The second gold bar!

 

"Rise--"

 

*Bang!*

 

Yi Chen's eyebrow twitched as he looked at the three gold bars in front of him; he swallowed unconsciously.

 

Riser rolled his eyes when he saw that she still hadn't responded.

 

"Well, then I'll find someone else."

 

He took the two golden bars without Yi Chen reacting.

 

Now, let's get to the third golden bar...

 

"Okay, okay, okay! Let me do!!"

 

Yi Chen literally threw himself onto the table, completely covering the remaining golden bar with his body.

 

"Then call him right away, otherwise, this will be your last transaction with me."

 

Riser waved his gold-plated fan (Daniele couldn't understand where he'd pulled it from).

 

"Yes, yes, Young Master Riser, please wait a moment~"

 

Yi Chen said, rubbing his hands together.

 

Then he quickly ran to the background.

 

Daniele said nothing, instead looked at his smug expression.

 

"...you really love China, don't you?"

 

"Haha! I love it!"

 

Daniele nodded with a helpless smile and let him play as he pleased.

 

Yi Chen returned 5 minutes later.

 

"Please follow me, Gongzi will be there."

 

Yi Chen led the two of them and then stepped back into the background.

 

They walked down a corridor, two muscular figures standing guard at the door.

 

After the two men glanced at them, they opened the door, Daniele and Riser saw Gongzi!

 

There, sitting on a throne-like seat with plenty of cushions, was a little girl in a Chinese robe, with short, sakura-colored hair.

 

She held a fan with the Yin and Yang symbol on it.

 

"Daniele 'Abe' Berti, 'The Lion King' and 'Joker', Riser Phenex, the third son of the Phenex house and a promising rookie in the Rating Game. "

 

The little girl looked at them and pointed at them with her fan.

 

"My name is Gongzi, also known as Zhuge Liang!"

 

Daniele and Riser were stunned, but for different reasons.

 

Daniele wasn't expecting to see a canon character here.

 

As for Riser...

 

"Wow, what a cute loli!"

 

Daniele seriously considered punching him at that moment.
