I'll kill you after I finish this game!

It's all to protect you!

They're both Gremories, so why is there such a big difference between them and her husband, Sazex?

Her heart was filled with rebuke for Rias, but Grayfia wouldn't allow the situation to get any worse, so she raised her hand and activated the spell.

hum!

Rias's beam of destructive magic was directly intercepted. After Rias's stunned magic output dissipated, five magic circles formed a cube, firmly imprisoning Rias's destructive magic within it, preventing it from advancing any further.

“Greefia…”

Turning her head to look at Grayfia, whose face was cold, Rias saw only disappointment in Grayfia's eyes. It was the first time Rias had ever been looked at like that by Grayfia, which made her feel somewhat dazed and at a loss.

"Maid, you're pretty quick. You've prevented her life from going to a Bad End."

Reiji slowly turned around, his eyes scanning them back and forth as if they were dead, causing Rias, who had just come to her senses and realized the disparity in their strength, to break out in a cold sweat.

Suddenly, Razer glanced at the destructive magic energy still lingering in mid-air, and gently raised his hand, beckoning it towards that spot.

Click!

The terrifying spiritual pressure directly crushed Grayfia's spell, and then, to the stunned eyes of Rias and Akeno Himejima...

Reiji violently compressed the red mass of destructive magic into the size of an apple using spiritual pressure, transferred it to his hand, and opened his mouth amidst the twitching gaze of Glefia.

"Hmm... the power of destruction? Its nature is acceptable."

Amidst the stares of others who saw it as a monster, Lei Zhe swallowed it whole, smacked his lips, and offered a fair assessment.

This monstrous act of swallowing her destructive power without any harm made Rias even more terrified. Her proud and meticulous destructive power could only have this much effect in front of this opponent?

Even Akeno Himejima lost her smile, and Raiser's lips twitched at the sight of her swallowing the power of destruction.

Who the hell would dare to do that?

That was destructive power! The opponent actually devoured it like candy or an apple. How could they not be horrified?

Moreover, the power of destruction is very effective against Riesel's Phoenix self-healing ability. It's just that Rias's strength is insufficient, which allows Riesel to be so powerful and arrogant in front of her.

Although Raiser could withstand the power of destruction with his immortality, he would never dare to do what Rezhe did.

"Your dependent? From today onwards, she is no longer."

Moving under the solemn gazes of Rias and the others, she came to Kuroka's side and gently raised her hand to release her power towards the kitten.

Under the astonished gazes of Hei Ge and Xiao Mao, the demonic part began to emanate from Xiao Mao's body, and all the components belonging to the reincarnated demon were stripped away.

Having lost the power of the demon, the kitten seemed to have no other means of suppressing or neutralizing the cat demon's nature, causing its cat-like attributes to become active and restless.

The white hair on his head underwent a slight change and began to tremble, and suddenly a pair of cat ears appeared that looked similar to those of Kuroko, only they were not white.

The kitten also felt something strange behind its rear end, a strange sensation emanating from it as it swayed uncomfortably.

The kitten looked around with its only movable eye and saw two pure white cat tails swaying gently.

"Meow? My little white voice no longer has any demonic elements, this...this is so wonderful, meow!!!"

As the older sister of Tacheng Cat, Heige naturally sensed the unusual thing about Cat, and her eyes lit up with surprise.

Not only did the part that was demonic disappear, but a part of the Nekomata's bloodline also awakened, and Shiro-on didn't feel any discomfort.

It's good that it lost its demonic element!

Tajo Kurogane never liked demons. Demons had only brought her pain since childhood. If it weren't for the demon bloodline that gave her a slight boost in strength, she would definitely hate the demonic elements in her body.

I never expected Lei Zhe to have this ability, to be able to separate things from other people's bodies without any side effects.

That artifact that Kiba Yuto used just now can now perfectly remove anything rooted in one's bloodline; it's simply too exaggerated.

Rias and Grayfia looked displeased when they saw Reize casually crush the lump of demonic power in his hand.

Rias lost the connection with the kitten, which dealt her a heavy blow.

Glefia, on the other hand, was deeply troubled by the power of Reiji, which she feared, and felt heavy-hearted about the power that separated the demonic elements within her.

The demons of the underworld, apart from the few remaining pure-blooded demons, rely on reincarnated demons to keep their numbers alive.

However, this human actually possesses the ability to perfectly separate and reincarnate demon bloodlines, which is tantamount to shaking the very foundation of the demons' current existence.

Yuto and the kitten both lost their demonic nature, becoming pure and no longer connected to demons.

We must report this matter back!

"go!"

Gurefia gazed intently at Rezhe one last time, as if trying to memorize him, before clapping her hands together and unleashing her power.

A magic circle, perfectly enveloping the demons, opened beneath their feet. The circle was inscribed with the Gremory family's markings, and its light instantly engulfed them all.

The next second, as the light vanished in an instant, all the demons that had displeased Razer in front of him moved away and disappeared completely.

"Well..."

The kitten stared tearfully at the deserted place ahead, wanting to speak but unable to utter a sound, only letting out some sad cries.

She could understand why Gurefia abandoned her, since she couldn't make a move here.

But while she could understand, the kitten really hated the feeling of being abandoned, since she believed that she had been abandoned by Hei Ge back then.

Thinking this, the kitten's pale golden eyes were filled with stubbornness and hatred as she glared at her older sister.

"Baiyin, I..."

When Kuroko saw her younger sister in her arms, looking at her with such a painful and piercing emotion, it made her, a sister-obsessed person, feel very uncomfortable. The cat ears on her head drooped down, reflecting her disappointment.

Nothing hurts a cat more than having the person it cherishes most look at it with such a strange and hateful gaze.

Lei Zhe, having been an older brother himself, naturally understood Hei Ge's feelings to some extent. He coldly observed this foolish cat, who would count the money even if sold out by a demon, and spoke in a cold voice:

"Do we need to erase her memories of those guys? It seems your sister is deeply bewitched by the devil, preferring to believe the devil rather than her own sister."

These words immediately caused the kitten in Hei Ge's arms to widen its eyes, its cat ears trembling as it looked at the indifferent Lei Zhe with a terrified expression.

She felt that this guy was more like a demon, his methods were so vicious, and he even wanted to erase her memory.

She needs to forget Rias and Akeno Himejima?

No! Absolutely not!

"...Baiyin is someone's sister, and they wouldn't want to treat her like this. Brother Lei Zhe, don't scare her."

Ta Cheng Hei Ge rolled her eyes at Lei Zhe, though she had indeed been tempted and hesitated when Lei Zhe made such a cruel and ruthless suggestion.

But seeing the fear and terror on his younger sister's face, he finally softened.

"Whether you do it or not is up to you. Although your sister is physically here with you, her heart isn't. Be careful that she doesn't betray you for the devil one day."

Lei Zhe glanced disdainfully at the kitten trembling in Hei Ge's arms; he couldn't be bothered with the little white cat.

This is nothing like his Scarlett, who is so well-behaved. Her heart has been stolen by the favors bestowed upon her by those demons. Can't she use her brain to think about the strangeness of the Black Song incident?

If you didn't use your brain when you were a child, will you still not use your brain when you grow up?

"If you have any misunderstandings with your sister, you can let her see your memories if you don't mind."

After saying that, Lei Zhe glanced at the gradually dissipating banishment spell around him, and not wanting to say anything more, he turned and slowly left.

Ta Cheng Hei Ge glanced at the kitten and realized she had indeed taken her words to heart. If she was determined, she could indeed clear up the misunderstanding between the two sisters.

However, she still needs to thank Lei Zhe, since he was the one who helped her bring her sister back.

"Um, thank you..." Kakeru Toujou hesitated, watching Raizetsu's retreating figure, before finally expressing her gratitude. However, having ultimately used him, Kakeru apologized afterward, "And I'm sorry for using you..."

"Don't do it again. Don't try to call me that way again. Just contact me directly. It's not like I'm not going to help you."

Without pausing or turning around, Lei Zhe waved casually and walked further and further away.

He did have some reservations about Hei Ge taking advantage of him, but he could have just called him directly. Considering they were teammates, it's not like he wouldn't help the other party.

Using such extreme methods, aren't you afraid of attracting Thor and the others to wipe you out? Stupid cat!

It's not like I'm not going to help you.

I pondered the meaning of those words.

Hearing Lei Zhe's words, Hei Ge felt a strange emotion in her heart. Her face returned to its seductive smile, and she licked her lips charmingly as she watched Lei Zhe's departing figure.

Although he has a somewhat cold personality, he is a very good person at heart, not to mention his other qualities.

In terms of strength, Kurogane could sense that his opponent had undergone a significant change in a short period of time, but he was unable to detect it in detail.

She is a perfect partner in every way, and he trusted her without hesitation when he came here, and won his sister back.

Affection +20. Originally, she defined Lei Zhe as a potential partner, but now she considers him someone she wants to pursue.

"Little Baiyin, although you have a lot of opinions about your older sister, I have never had the idea of ​​abandoning you. Those demons probably didn't tell you the truth about why I defected."

Looking down at his younger sister in his arms, who had breathed a sigh of relief after Raize left, Kuroka wore a gentle and tender smile, gently pinched his sister's cat ears, and continued speaking despite his sister's angry glare.

"Although you're still immature, you've grown up quite a bit. If you really hate and dislike me, I'll let you see my memories, as Brother Lei Zhe suggested."

"If you still want to leave your sister's side and go back to those demons when the time comes, your sister will no longer stop you."

Such sincere and genuine words were enough to move the kitten outwardly and surprise inwardly, making her look at her older sister, Hei Ge, with some disbelief.

Is this person with the doting and gentle smile really the older sister she remembers?

You can even show me your memories? Could there really be some hidden story behind my sister's defection back then?

The physical constraints had gradually loosened after Razer left, but the confused kitten no longer had any intention of resisting.

If your older sister keeps her word, you can listen to her explanation and see the truth in her memories.

P.S.: Please vote and recommend! I'll add more chapters if you get more votes. Quite a few chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) authors have messaged me. I knew it! How could a gathering place for a bunch of anime and manga fans like Hedgehog Cat not have any? (lol #)
