"stop!"

A cold and resentful voice came from behind Kuroba.

There's no escaping it...

Kuroba sighed softly.

"Is there something you need...?"

Kuroba turned around and asked hesitantly.

Turning around, she met Cang Na's gaze directly. A faint blush still lingered on her face, and her dark eyes held some indescribable emotions.

Are you avoiding me? Do you think I'm scary?

Cang's cold tone clearly contained a hint of questioning and displeasure.

"How could that be? What's so scary about it? The dress fits perfectly, and the student council president looks incredibly sophisticated without her glasses, giving off a beauty I've never seen before..."

Kuroba didn't know if he had somehow touched a nerve with Sona, so he could only offer his praise cautiously.

Upon hearing the mention of the guild master from Kuroba, a hint of disappointment appeared in Sona's eyes.

This was clearly not the answer she wanted.

Just as she was about to say something, Rias and the others appeared.

"Huh? Sona, you got here so fast? Sorry to keep you waiting."

The moment Rias's voice rang out, Sona felt Kuroba's gaze being taken away from him and shifted to Rias, who was wearing a well-tailored pure black dress.

Kuroba stared blankly at Rias, who was dressed in her finest attire.

The gown designed by Vinella herself, paired with Rias's flowing, crimson updo, created a strikingly elegant style. The pure black gown subtly showcased Rias's slightly naive demeanor and flawless figure. Despite its beauty, the gown was not revealing.

Most of her fair skin was completely covered, leaving only tiny gaps. Even so, Rias's full, firm breasts and slender waist were still visible through the tightly wrapped dress, highlighting her captivating and graceful figure. This design, which blended ethereal beauty with subtle allure, left Kuroba slightly mesmerized.

"Rias, this outfit looks great!"

Kuroba said with a smile.

Rias smiled sweetly upon receiving Kuroba's praise.

"Isn't it beautiful?"

"Alala, Kuroba can't be biased, okay? We were wearing formal attire too, so why didn't we get any praise from Kuroba?"

Then Zhu Nai spoke up, seemingly unwilling to be outdone.

"No, not at all. Everyone looks great. I've had a feast for the eyes today."

Kuroba wasn't talking nonsense, and it's unclear whether it was out of consideration for Kuroba or simply due to his own nature.

Although everyone was wearing formal attire, they all chose elegant and tasteful styles that were not revealing. Each outfit perfectly suited their own appearance, greatly enhancing their figure and looks.

"Aren't you proud? This is a dress we picked out after a long search; only you can see its best parts..."

Zhu Nai slowly walked to Kuroba's side, and because she was wearing high heels, she easily whispered in Kuroba's ear.

"Hahaha..."

Kuroba laughed awkwardly.

He said that he always felt their dresses were all quite similar, and that was the problem.

After learning the reason, Kuroba carefully praised everyone until they were all smiling.

Sona stood silently behind, watching Kuroba's intimate interactions with the others, watching him gently stroke Asia and the kitten's heads, watching him have Akeno and Rias cling to his arms, watching Yuuma's shy scolding, watching him playfully pinch Gaspar's cheeks, watching him gently embrace Xenovia and Yuuki...

All these physical gestures expressed his joy, a stark contrast to when he was chatting with himself.

This caused a hint of sadness to flash in Cang Na's eyes.

Cang Na herself couldn't figure out when she started paying attention to Kuroba, or when she started caring about his opinion of her.

Was it because of Rias's praise of him before their first meeting?

Or was it that he fought so desperately during the ranking game to ensure Rias's victory?

Or was it because of her sister's joke that Kuroba took her in?

Cangna felt a bit confused, her head spinning.

I was surprised that my heart would pound because of a single compliment from him, and that I would feel resentful and sad because of his every move.

It's such an unpleasant feeling...

The proud self had now become a lonely, bystander in the background, a contrast that made Cang Na laugh at himself.

As a longtime friend, Rias seemed to sense that something was wrong with Sona, so she walked over and stood next to Sona.

"Kuroba is very outstanding. He is far more than he appears now. You will see for yourself in the upcoming ranking game."

Seeing Rias approach and strike up a conversation, Sona composed himself.

"Yes, I can see that. In such a short time, he seems to have gradually become the pillar of your team. But we are also very strong, and we will not lose."

Rias smiled knowingly, her eyes narrowing.

"I'm afraid you'll lose more than just the game..."

"What...what do you mean?"

Cang Na was caught off guard by these words, and she hurriedly asked.

But Rias didn't give her an answer. Instead, she asked Kuroba, who was not far away.

"Kuroba, should we go now?"

Kuroba, who was angrily rubbing the kitten's ears, turned around when she heard Rias's voice.

"Okay, I understand. It should be about time... Uncle Tenny promised to pick us up and take us to the venue."

As he spoke, the sky was covered by a huge figure, and Hei Yu looked up and couldn't help but get excited.

The countless figures soaring in the sky were all dragons, and the one leading them was Tanni.

"Uncle Tenny!"

Kuroba waved happily and shouted.

"Oh, little one, I've come as promised!"

Tanni landed in the courtyard with his ten dragon followers and addressed the crowd before him.

“When you sit on me, I will create a special barrier on my back so that your hairstyle and clothing will not be blown around. This is very important for women.”

Uncle Tenny is a gentleman dragon, isn't he?

"Thank you, Uncle Tani. We also have Lady Sona and her retinue here. Is everything alright?"

"No problem at all, come on up."

Once everyone was seated, Tanni spread his wings, and a gust of wind carried him into the air. In the vast expanse of the sky, Black Feather and the others headed towards the venue.

Chapter 140 Lord Kuroba, I Miss You

Although Tanni was flying very fast, the party was unprecedented in scale because it was initiated by the Demon King.

The ultra-high-rise luxury hotel, used as a party venue, is located on the edge of Gimonri territory, standing alone in a vast forest.

Even Tani took about an hour to fly there.

As for its size, needless to say, it's conservatively estimated to be about the same size as the city where Kuroba and the others live in the human world.

This is just a rough conclusion that Kuroba drew from an aerial view; the actual figures may be even greater.

Because Tanni is a dragon, they also have their own reception area, so Tanni left after dropping everyone off.

Kuroba and the others were greeted by the waiting staff and boarded in limousines; Rias and her group were in one car, and Sona in another.

Inside the limousine, Rias gently tidied Kuroba's slightly disheveled hair, which had been sitting on Tanni's head out of curiosity, and even the barrier couldn't properly protect his hairstyle.

Rias gently tidied Kuroba's hair as she spoke softly.

"Kuroba, you really can't give me a moment's peace..."

"Huh? What did I do..."

Kuroba asked, somewhat bewildered.

He was clearly chatting with Tenny the whole time, but he didn't do anything at all.

But Rias just smiled and spoke in riddles.

"You know what? Sona just declared war on me. Just like she said in front of the Demon King, her dream is to build a school where everyone, regardless of social status, can participate in ranking games. She said she would defeat us for her dream."

"As expected of the president, as someone who has been reincarnated from a human, I can really feel the greatness of this dream."

Kuroba couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

"You can't just go easy on us because our opponent is Cang, okay? We have our own dreams too, and we need victory after victory to prove ourselves."

Rias looked at Kuroba with a teasing expression and started joking.

"Rias, what do you mean by this? When have I ever gone easy on you? I've been risking my life for you the whole time. You're making me sad."

Upon hearing this, Rias pressed Kuroba's head against her body.

"Who can say for sure? What if you suddenly feel sorry for Cang and can't bear to see her defeated and dejected look?"

Kuroba felt that there was something hidden in Rias's words, and he even had a vague idea of ​​what was going on, but he wasn't sure. So he kept rubbing against Rias in front of him, trying to distract her.

"Then try your best to make me love you even more."

Feeling the tingling sensation from the friction in front of her, Rias blushed and slapped Kuroba in an annoyed manner.

"You've gone too far! You actually dare to threaten me... Ah... Don't rub me..."

Inside the car, Kuroba teased Rias until she was panting heavily before finally stopping. Rias glared at Kuroba resentfully and then straightened her slightly disheveled dress.

Once Rias had recovered, they arrived at the venue.

After Zhu Nai handed over the task, everyone quickly boarded the elevator and headed towards the top floor.

"Kuroba, if any aristocratic families greet you, be sure to respond warmly."
