I am the devil, I only know how to trade.

If Luo Feng doesn't accept this soul, it will automatically dissipate.

Luo Feng looked at the ball-shaped soul, lost in thought.

The soul is nothing special; it has no potential to become an angel, no potential to become a devil, and no potential for spiritual cultivation...

That's it?

My hunch is that I'm not just here to get a free soul?

If that's the case, that's such a rip-off. Do I need one more soul?

Kind, but not meeting Luo Feng's standards for collecting.

Normally, a soul like that would be thrown directly into the abyss.

The fact that angels have appeared indicates that this matter is not simple.

Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, Luo Feng had arrived in the air, standing before the angel.

“Chisaki Tapris Hughbell,” Luo Feng called out her name.

She had short blonde hair and green eyes. Upon seeing Luo Feng, she immediately covered her head in fright, crying, "No, don't hit me..."

"Tell me, why did you come all this way to save this guy?" Luo Feng stretched out his hand, the soul in his hand trembling.

"I don't know either, this is an order from above, sob sob sob...it's so scary..." Tapris's wings went a little weak.

Otherwise, she would have gone back to heaven the moment she saw Luo Feng.

How could she possibly be able to face such an opponent!

Even if it were senior Laffitte or senior Gabriel, they would still suffer a setback if they came!

Even the powerful senior Gael couldn't gain the upper hand in front of him...

It was just a simple rescue mission, so why are there demons of this level?!

"The orders from above only sent you..." Luo Feng said thoughtfully.

There are two possibilities: Heaven's mechanisms may have only detected that this soul has something special, but they don't know the soul's purpose, so they just randomly sent a little angel.

They never expected that they would have a premonition as well.

Theoretically, if Luo Feng were a genuine Western devil, he might not have had this premonition.

To have such a premonition, one must at least possess a certain level of divination ability. Generally, this ability is something one is born with in life, and very few demons actually possess it.

Another possibility is that they were afraid that sending a powerful angel would alert them, because Luo Feng would not be able to fail to notice the arrival of a powerful angel.

He will intervene no matter what, and he will sabotage whatever the other party does.

Heaven can't send a large number of angels to Earth, so they sent this child to try their luck...

"Mmm... I really don't know anything, my wings aren't pretty..." Tapris nodded quickly.

"I wouldn't dare bully a child like you." Luo Feng stroked his chin. "Go back now."

“Okay…okay…” Tapris didn’t move.

"You're still here, do you want to fight me?" Luo Feng's lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile: "I don't mind helping Heaven train its troops."

"Waaah... My wings are too weak, I can't fly, I can't fly..."

Luo Feng was speechless upon hearing her words.

Angels born from the womb are not only weak in strength, but also cowardly.

He waved his hand, and a magic circle appeared out of thin air, causing Tapris to disappear.

Actually, the teleportation arrays for Heaven and Hell are connected...

Or rather, heaven and hell are right next to each other, they're neighbors.

However, apart from the entrance, the rest of the area is protected by a strong barrier, with a clear dividing line.

If Raffi hadn't known about a tiny loophole, there would have been no way to bring the current Gabriel back to Heaven.

This vulnerability is not easily exploited, because only those with weak capabilities can pass through it.

For a powerful individual like Luo Feng to infiltrate, it would be completely impossible; he would be immediately placed under red alert as soon as he entered.

Luo Feng collected the soul and returned to the ground.

This had already caught the attention of the train conductor, because a grown person committing suicide, no matter the reason, was no small matter.

After Luo Feng went downstairs, he saw that Kong Yinzi was staring blankly into space, and then he realized that she had never seen such a scene before.

Previously, things were fine; Luo Feng had always avoided these kinds of transactions involving empty silver.

Today, having witnessed the scene of life fading away before her eyes, Kong Yinzi gained a deeper understanding of Luo Feng, and her fear intensified.

Luo Feng patted her shoulder and said softly, "This is her fate; she brought this upon herself."

"There was a clear chance to save her..."

Sora Ginko didn't care about Luo Feng's transactions with others because, unlike Yukino, she didn't know what would happen to those souls once they were in Luo Feng's hands. That's why she would occasionally say something like, "Go to hell!"

This is a classic example of ignorance breeds fearlessness.

If she had known, she probably wouldn't have said it so easily.

It's like someone hoping to have superpowers, but when those superpowers actually come to him, he can kill whoever he wants.

The most likely outcomes are twofold: one is that he loses himself and becomes a madman.

Even Light Yagami changed later; he was still a very self-disciplined guy, let alone an ordinary person.

Another possibility is that they are afraid of their own abilities.

"There's no chance. Do you think you'd be at this tram station without me?" Luo Feng wasn't sure if Kong Yinzi was there or if it would affect the outcome, so he didn't send her away.

But he knew that if he saved this person, things wouldn't be fun anymore.

"But since I'm here..."

"Don't think too much." Luo Feng patted Kong Yinzi's head: "Go play chess. I'll take you guys out tonight. There's a festival in Tokyo, a summer festival."

Sora Ginko is in a bad mood right now, and her whole state of mind has been affected.

Luo Feng didn't care. He snapped his fingers, and the two of them reappeared at the same station.

He neither erased Kong Yinzi's memory nor calmed her down.

It seems quite interesting to let her play chess in this state.

As long as she follows him, there are certain things she will inevitably experience sooner or later.

It's not about simply knowing, or listening like a story; it's about opening your eyes wide to see.

Some things can't be avoided; she'll have to face them sooner or later. At the very least, she needs to maintain her composure and play chess even amidst the roar of war.

In the past of the world where Blank exists, someone, in human form, used all living beings as pawns to set up a grand scheme and scheme against countless powerful individuals.

If she didn't have this courage, this insight, this mindset, her approach to chess would be nothing more than a game.

Chapter 228 Kiss

Kansai Shogi Hall.

Sora Ginko's body felt so hot it was like it was on fire.

"Hahaha……"

She was breathing heavily, feeling dizzy looking at the chessboard, and the world was spinning.

As she entered the game of shogi, its electronic chime, like an electrocardiogram, informed her of the passage of time.

Clang!

She slammed her fist down on the clock switch, and the chess game time was revived.

Like massaging a heart that has stopped beating, she tapped the switch again and again.

She no longer understood what she was doing; she couldn't even remember which piece she had moved.

What is this match in the third stage of the league?

The second game? The final match? Who was my opponent? Was it my advantage or disadvantage?

If you think about those things, you'll run out of time.

In short, first move the pieces, then turn on the switch, continuously massaging your heart.

My vision was swaying, and even though my hands were braced on the tatami mat, it was still swaying.

It's so hot, my throat is so thirsty, and my chest... my chest hurts so much...

She saw Kiyotaki Kosuke's face; he was in the shadows of the pillar, staring at Sora Ginko with a tearful expression.

Kong Yinzi's fists were swollen from pounding so hard that even breathing was painful.

Even so, she kept ringing the game clock, determined to keep ringing it and absolutely not stop.

The dream that I thought would last forever suddenly came to an end.

"I lost."

At that sound, Kong Yinzi collapsed in front of the chessboard as if his string had been cut.

The opponent resigned.

Oh, so this isn't a dream. It's wonderful that the hand didn't stop moving the pieces along the way, and it's wonderful that it kept tapping the switch.

Thank goodness my heart didn't stop beating.

"Miss Kong? Are you alright?"

Her opponent looked at Sora Ginko with a worried expression.

Sora Ginko didn't seem to be in good form from the start of the game, but even so, she was still able to play such a shogi game that was truly admirable.

It can be said that in this round, Kong Yinzi had given up thinking and was playing entirely on instinct.

Her current instincts are similar to those of Kuga Sota in many situations, relying entirely on her powerful calculations and talent to overpower her opponents.
