Without warning, a purple magic circle suddenly appeared beneath Shichen's feet, and at the same time, the same magic circle appeared behind Nangong Nayue.

"Let's go."

Nangong Nayue turned and walked into the magic circle. Her figure disappeared, and the magic circle disappeared with her.

At Shichen's feet, a magic circle slowly rose, as if to devour him.

Spatial magic?

Shi Chen looked excitedly at the magic circle beneath his feet, eager to experience the feeling of spatial teleportation. However, his expectations were dashed. The magic circle shattered as soon as it touched his feet, just like glass.

Bang!

A crisp sound rang out, and the magic circle shattered and vanished.

"..." Shi Chen stared blankly at his feet.

What to do? It seems he's been left behind.

Fortunately, his worries were unnecessary. The magic circle reappeared before him, and Nangong Nayue's petite figure walked out from within it.

"What's wrong with you?" she asked, frowning.

"Sorry... magic doesn't seem to work on me," Shichen replied awkwardly.

"?" Nangong Nayue looked at him in confusion.

"It's just that... I'm immune to magic; magic has no effect on me."

"Magic doesn't work on you?" Nangong Nayue looked at him in disbelief: "You have this kind of ability?"

"It's related to my constitution."

"...You've got quite a few secrets, no wonder you dared to show up in this city." Nangong Nayue didn't doubt him, after all, she had already witnessed it with her own eyes.

"I really was teleported here."

"Whatever, let's go back now." Since Nangong Nayue had decided to take him in, there was no need for her to care.

She led the way outside.

"Ok."

Shichen followed behind Nangong Nayue, and the two left the alley.

Outside the alley was a bustling street, and the appearance of the two attracted the attention of many people.

They were a man and a woman, and they came out of an alley; who knows what they were doing that was inappropriate for children.

However, once they saw what the two looked like, they immediately rejected the idea.

It should be a primary school student, not a high school student, especially in broad daylight; it's unlikely to be that serious.

Moreover, the two of them are so good-looking, they might be siblings.

"Hurry up," Nangong Nayue said, turning around to urge them on the time.

The gazes of those around her were a bit piercing. Although Nangong Nayue had experienced this many times before, she still couldn't stand it.

"Okay." Shi Chen quickly walked to Nangong Nayue's side and walked alongside her.

Nangong Nayue couldn't help but glance at him out of the corner of her eye; her thoughts were a bit jumbled.

It was only then that she came to her senses and realized that she had suddenly agreed to take him in, and that he might even be a pervert.

Could she have been bewitched?

No, how could she be bewitched? She must have thought he knew more, and keeping him around would be a good way to gather information.

Besides, this guy is so dangerous, it's better to keep him around and watch him to prevent him from harming the ignorant women of Itogami Island.

The people above are so old-fashioned and twisted, we can't let this guy come into contact with them. Magic is useless against him, and who knows if he has any other abilities? It would be bad if the higher-ups on Itogami Island offended him and caused trouble.

The aura of the True Ancestor on Shi Chen's body always made her uneasy.

The destructive power of familiars is undeniable. If he truly possesses a familiar at the True Ancestor level, it would be a devastating blow to Itogami Island.

She seems to be doing better; this guy said he's interested in her, so we can make good use of that.

Most importantly, she had been living alone for so many years and was tired of it, so she could try having someone to accompany her.

This guy isn't afraid of her and doesn't show her any respect, so he's a good choice.

Hopefully not bad.

Chapter 42 Moving into the Natsuki Family House

Nangong Nayue's residence was a luxury apartment building. When Shichen followed her home, he felt the poverty of his coffee shop as soon as he entered the door.

The room was large, with tiled walls and floors, several rooms, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a large living room, but the human scent was a bit faint.

After all, Nangong Nayue has always lived alone.

Nangong Nayue is a high school English teacher, which is her identity among ordinary people. Her other identity is that of a national demon-hunting officer and an active-duty professional demon-hunting master who also serves as an instructor for the Special District Garrison.

Of course, among the demons, her nickname "Witch of the Gap" is more famous and can make most demons tremble with fear.

The place where Shichin is now is called Itogami Island, located in the sea, an island entirely built by humans.

The island's temperature remains above 20 degrees Celsius year-round, and its total population is approximately 560,000. Although it is called Itogami City in Tokyo, it is actually a special administrative region with an independent political system called the "Demon Special Zone"—used to protect the endangered demon race and study their physical structure and special abilities.

Most of the island's residents are researchers and demons, and their families are also there, creating a situation where humans and demons coexist.

Demons also have corresponding rights, but humans don't need to be afraid of them. Demons are all registered and wear wristbands with ability-limiting and alarm functions, making them easy to distinguish.

In this city where humans and demons coexist, Nangong Nayue, as an official in charge of attacking demons, naturally holds a high position, not to mention that her strength is among the best in the human world.

Moreover, she has a special identity.

It's quite normal for her to own such a large apartment.

Shi Chen glanced around the living room to get a sense of his future home before sitting down on the sofa.

"call--"

The sofa was so comfortable and soft that as soon as Shi Chen sat down, it felt like he was being swallowed up, sinking into it completely.

"You...you're really not being polite." Nangong Nayue was somewhat speechless at his overly familiar manner.

"There's no need to be so polite. You definitely won't like this kind of thing," Shi Chen retorted with a smile.

How did you know? We only met for the first time today, didn't we?

"I have a good eye for people."

"Fine... as long as you behave."

"I promise I'll be obedient."

"Then get up first. Choose any room you like and decorate it yourself. The storage room has everything you need. I won't help you."

"No problem, but which room is yours?" Shi Chen asked.

"What do you want to do? You don't still want to sleep in the same room as me, do you?" Nangong Nayue frowned, looking at him incredulously.

"No, no, not so fast. I just want to live next to you."

"Not so fast..." Nangong Nayue couldn't help but twitch her lips.

Did she let a wolf into her house?

Forget it, there's no need to worry. She's not a weak woman.

This guy doesn't seem like the type to use force.

“My room is that one,” Nangong Nayue said, pointing to the innermost room.

"Oh, I see. I'll sleep in the room next door then."

"Whatever, just hurry up and get it done. Let me see your tea-making skills."

"OK!"

Shichen immediately got up and went to the warehouse to move things.

The room was fully furnished with furniture such as a bed and bookshelves, as well as blankets and pillows. It was very complete. Shi Chen knew that Nangong Nayue was all alone, so why would she prepare these things?

Are you looking forward to having guests over?

Shi Chen was quite strong and quickly finished tidying up his room. Although the room was a bit simple, he wasn't a person with any particular demands.

He used to be content with just a phone and a bed, but now he's even more satisfied with just a bed.

In truth, he was still an unregistered resident in this world, and without shamelessly following Nangong Nayue, traveling would be truly difficult.

He's still grateful that Nangong Nayue took him in.

Fortunately, the mission privileges granted him the abilities of a True Ancestor's Body; otherwise, he would have been unable to gain Nangong Nayue's attention.

He revealed to Nangong Nayue that he knew about the Fourth True Ancestor in order to make her pay more attention to it.

He had no value, and Nangong Nayue would never kindly take him in; he didn't believe his appearance was useful.

He's already halfway to success by stepping into this house. He has no ulterior motives, so surely he can gain Nangong Nayue's trust?

Spending so much time together, it's almost inevitable that feelings will develop over time, as long as one of them isn't completely hopeless.

But is the True Ancestor's body his original power?

Shi Chen was very concerned about what she had said in his mind. He had a vague idea of ​​it, but he also felt it was impossible.

"What are you daydreaming about? Come and make me some black tea." Just then, Nangong Nayue's voice rang out.

"Oh, okay, I'm coming." Shi Chen suppressed his thoughts and walked towards the living room.

Nangong Nayue was sitting upright with her right leg crossed on her lap, expressionless, her small face serious, appearing very proud and dignified.

If she weren't wearing a black gothic Lolita dress, if she weren't so petite.

"Use this. I want to see if you really know how to brew black tea," Nangong Nayue commanded, pointing with her fan at the black tea set on the coffee table.

She still didn't believe what Shichen had said before; he didn't look like someone who knew how to do housework.

The key point is that it also carries the aura of the true ancestor.

She didn't know where it came from, nor did she need to know, but how could someone with this kind of aura possibly need to do housework themselves?
