The Infinite Powerhouse Mixed in with Sakura Dormitory

The four girls were talking quite loudly, and they were sitting very close together, so Shiina Mashiro could hear their conversation. Knowing who Kamiten was, she also knew that the other person was the one who said that morning that she wanted to lock Jiang Jing in a dark room.

Someone actually tried to steal her Sorata.

"They were just joking." Jiang Jing, who roughly knew the personalities of the group, smiled and didn't take it to heart.

Suddenly, Jiang Jing turned his head slightly and looked at the two women who had just entered the coffee shop.

It was a pretty pink-haired girl wearing a blue and white long dress, and a green-haired woman holding a parasol, wearing an exquisite black-striped white shirt and a red Scottish kilt.

Their rare and stunningly beautiful faces, the ethereal and serene aura of the pink-haired girl, and the natural, flower-sea-like ambiance of the green-haired woman immediately attracted everyone's attention upon entering.

"Kong is so mean, staring at girls." Shiina Mashiro across from him, holding a spoon in one hand and a fork in the other, made an X at Jiang Jing.

Jiang Jing withdrew his gaze from Kazami Yuuka and Shiina Mashiro, and smiled slightly: "It's normal for men to be attracted to beautiful women, but I find that you're prettier, Mashiro."

Mashiro's gaze froze for a moment, then she turned her head, pretending to look at the street scene outside, but the fork and spoon she put down and the slightly upturned corners of her mouth gave her away.

Kazami Yuuka and Saigyouji Yuyuko sat behind the river view. The two seemed to be just out shopping. After the reserved waiter served them snacks, they enjoyed the food and talked in hushed tones.

However, just an hour later, many people looked at the pink-haired girl in shock because there was a mountain of plates piled up in front of her.

"Mashiro, they're out."

Just as Shiina Mashiro was also drawn to the pink-haired girl, Jiang Jing suddenly pointed to the arcade across the street, where Ueiso Misaki and Chtholly walked out.

Of the four, apart from the indifferent Nephren, the other three looked excited, especially Misaki and Esya, who had bright smiles on their faces, clearly having had a lot of fun.

"Let's go." Jiang Jing stood up, glanced at the four people chatting happily over tea in front of him, and left with Shiina Mashiro.

However, just as Jiang Jing was about to leave the coffee shop, he felt a pair of eyes on his back. He paused and turned around to meet those ruby-like eyes.

Jiang Jing sensed no malice in Kazami Yuuka's clear, ruby-like eyes. The coldness that had been surfacing in his eyes vanished instantly, and he nodded slightly, ignoring her.

"Yuuka, is that the person you're looking for?" Yuyuko followed Yuuka's gaze and looked curiously at Jiang Jing's back.

"Weren't we just out for a stroll, to see this bustling world?" Kazami Yuuka said calmly, withdrawing her gaze.

"You can't fool me, Yuuka."

Saigyouji Yuyuko chuckled smugly, "Even though you said you were just out for a stroll, I know your personality all too well, hmm..."

……

In the activity room of the Mysterious Research Department, as a dark red magic circle flickered, the figures of Rias and her three companions, fully armed, appeared.

All four of them looked rather disheveled, especially Kiba Yuto and Toujou Koneko, whose clothes were tattered, clearly indicating that they had been through a fierce battle.

"Ah... these past few days have been really tiring, but thankfully, the impact of the void storm has finally subsided." Himejima Akeno stretched, a look of relief appearing on her tired face.

Rias smiled and said, "Although these past few days have been tiring, the harvest has been good. Let's pool our resources and exchange them for two 20% purity Grade 3 Source Crystals. Combined with the Millennium Void Liquid we collected earlier, it should be enough for Yuto and Koneko to try and reach four stars."

"minister."

Kiba Yuto was somewhat moved, but then shook his head and refused: "I think I can break through on my own, and I don't need the help of a third-grade source crystal. It would be too wasteful."

"With the tasks we've completed these past few days and the contribution points you've accumulated, I think the Minister or Senior Sister Zhu Nai could try to concentrate resources and try to break through that barrier."

"I don't need it, I can break through on my own," Ta Cheng Xiao Mao also refused.

However, Rias ignored their objections and said forcefully, "Alright, it's decided then."

"department……"

Rias, nicknamed "Yuto the Kitten," reached out to stop Kiba Yuto from speaking.

"Zhuno and I are still a little short of the peak of four stars. Even if we use resources to boost our level now, we can't take that step in a short time. So helping you break through first is the best option."

"This……"

hum! !

In the center of the room, a magic circle shimmering with silver light suddenly lit up. Sensing the familiar magical fluctuations, Rias's gaze sharpened.

"It's her! Minister?" Akeno Himejima looked at Rias with a questioning gaze.

Rias paused for a moment, then nodded slightly: "Let her come over."

With Rias's consent, Akeno Himejima, who controlled the magic circle in this base, immediately released the lock on the magic circle. Then, the silver magic circle on the ground flashed with brilliant light, and a figure was teleported over.

She was a beautiful woman with silver hair, dressed in a butler's uniform, and a cold expression, exuding an air of meticulousness.

"Miss Rias, it's been a long time." Griffith looked at Rias and gave her a slight bow.

Rias's pupils contracted slightly: "Greyfeya, what are you doing here?"

Griffiths said calmly, "Lord Sazex just returned from reporting to the Forbidden Zone. He hasn't seen you in a long time, so he asked me to give his regards and bring someone with him."

"Bring someone? Who...?"

boom!!

Just then, because Akeno Himejima released the teleportation lock, the teleportation magic in the center of the living room suddenly burst into flames, and a tall figure teleported over amidst the blazing fire.

"Heh... It's been a long time since I've been to the human world."

Amidst the flames, a handsome blond man in a red casual suit emerged, radiating a powerful aura that subtly raised the temperature inside the room.

"I've come to see you, my lovely Rias." The blond man looked at Rias with a slightly flippant expression, a hint of surprise and amazement flashing in his eyes.

"It's been two years since we last met, hasn't it? I never imagined my lovely Rias would grow up to be so beautiful." A burning desire shone in the blond man's eyes, a man's intense possessiveness towards a beautiful woman.

“Greyfeya, what do you mean?” Ignoring the sudden appearance of Riesel Phoenix, Rias looked at Greyfeya with cold eyes.

“I’m sorry, Lady Rias, this is the will of your father and Sirzechs.”

Griffia bowed slightly and said calmly, "Although the initial impact of this void storm has passed, seven more pure-blooded high-ranking demons have perished."

"For the sake of the future of the underworld and the demonic forces, both of you and the Phoenix family do not want you to continue to be willful, so the engagement made back then has been brought up again."

"They promised me that the marriage would be discussed after I came of age." Rias's expression was somewhat unpleasant.

"What, Rias, are you so resistant to marrying me?" With his hands in his pockets, Riesel chuckled, a hint of tyranny and dissatisfaction flickering in his dark red eyes.

"I told you long ago that I would not marry you," Rias said coldly, looking at Riesel.

"Unfortunately, it's not up to you."

Riesel shrugged, his face turning cold, and said domineeringly, "I now represent the Phoenix family. To avoid bringing shame upon the family, I will take you back to the underworld even if it means killing all your relatives."

“If Rias wants to see her familiars burned to ashes by me, I don’t mind.” Riesel’s lips curled into a cruel smile.

"Oh my! Lady Riesel, are you that confident? Well then, I'll have to see if you have the ability." Himejima Akeno smiled, her hands on her abdomen, her eyes, which narrowed into crescents with her smile, revealed a sharp edge.

However, the faint sparks of electricity rising from her body exuded a dangerous aura.

"If you want to steal the minister, let's see if you have the ability." Kiba Yuto and Toujou Koneko also assumed an attack stance, their eyes revealing undisguised hostility as they looked at Riesel Phoenix.

boom!!

"stop."

Just moments before, Griffia, who had been calm and polite, dressed in a butler's uniform, suddenly erupted with silver light. At the same time, a terrifying aura far surpassing that of an ordinary demon lord enveloped the entire activity room, causing everyone to gasp for breath.

The immense magical power surged like a tidal wave, rendering everyone immobile and causing them to stare in shock at the silver-haired woman.

P.S.: Two chapters totaling 11,000 words today.

Yesterday, everyone gave us over 200 blades, but only 100 monthly votes. We'll count that as two chapters, so we owe you 21 chapters. Today, we'll count 11,000 words as five chapters. After deducting the two guaranteed chapters, we still owe you 18 chapters. Hehehe... We've finally reduced it by one chapter.

Don't worry, the current calculation of the outstanding chapter data is only approximate. When we settle the accounts at the end of the month, any overpayment will be refunded and any underpayment will be collected.

Please refresh the page, I'm going to find the image.

Ahem... Should we close the bounty for now?

I've been updating like crazy since it was released, writing 10,000 words a day and I'm starting to feel a bit overwhelmed. It seems like everyone's votes are all gone and can't keep up with my update speed.

So, should we close it for now, and reopen it after I've slowly paid off my debts and you guys have accumulated more money and cash? ^_^

Leave a "1" if you support closing it, and a "2" if you support keeping it open until the end of the month.

I'll check tonight. If there are more people who support turning it off, I'll compile the statistics and settle the accounts at midnight.

Chapter 106 No man could resist (First Update)

"As a noble of the underworld and a high-ranking demon, since there is a conflict, let's resolve it according to the current rules for demon nobles." Grefia slowly withdrew the oppressive aura that had erupted from her body and said coldly.

"Lord Riser wants to marry Lady Rias ahead of schedule. Since Lady Rias doesn't want to marry Lord Riser either, let's settle this with strength."

Rias's gaze sharpened: "A battle in the Mirror World, perhaps?"

"Miss Gloria, can you make this decision?"

A playful glint appeared in Rias's eyes as she looked at him. "Let me warn you first, before I entered the forbidden zone for training, I had already engaged in several betting battles with other demon nobles, winning more often than losing. Do you dare to challenge me?"

"I am here today representing Lord Sazex, and my decision is his will."

Gloria coldly replied, "Lord Raiser, you are already an adult demon and have participated in several gambling battles. You have been roaming the dangerous areas of the forbidden battlefield for many years and have rich combat experience."

"With your fifteen dependents all gathered together, each of whom has fought and honed their skills with you in dangerous areas for years, plus the resources of your Phoenix family, even the weakest one now possesses the early stage of the four-star realm."

"And Lady Rias is currently at the late stage of the fourth star level, and her familiar queen, the Thunder Priestess, is also at the late stage of the fourth star level. In addition, there are two castles and knights at the peak of the third star level. Compared with you, their strength is completely inferior."

"So if you agree to this battle, then if you win, you can take Lady Rias away ahead of time and fulfill the marriage contract between the Gremory family and the Phoenix family."

"But if Lady Rias's team wins, then your marriage contract will end."

"This is a bet that seems unfair but is actually just. Now, what are your opinions? Confirm or reject?" Gloria looked at the two of them coldly, her seemingly imperceptible but immense pressure and her pressing words putting immense strain on them.

Rias's eyes flickered, and she remained silent, seemingly deep in thought.

Riser did not immediately agree. Although he felt he had the victory in his grasp, he was very cautious about making a decision that involved the enormous interests of an ancient demon noble.

His marriage to Rias was not just a simple incorporation into the Gremory family; it also carried a massive plan from the Phoenix family.

Riesel's gaze swept over Rias, Himejima Akeno, and Kiba Yuto Koneko, sensing that their strength was indeed as Griffia had said—two four-star and two three-star demons—and he couldn't help but feel tempted.

"Rias, you've been in the human world for so many years, and you only have two familiars? That doesn't seem to fit your status as the next head of Gremory." As she spoke, Riasel narrowed her eyes and looked at Grefia with a questioning tone.

"Lady Rias has three Familiars, and there is another one in the basement below, but she cannot participate because she cannot control the power of the Divine Item residing in her body."

"However, a human ability user joined Rias's team a month ago. He is a peak three-star ability user and his awakened ability is on the power side."

“Human ability user, three-star strength level, why don’t I see anyone?” Riesel looked around.

"Kouta seems to be shopping right now. Since he only recently awakened his abilities, he's not very interested in the supernatural world," Rias said calmly.
