Sona Shiki gently pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said expressionlessly.

However, anger was clearly audible in his words.

"Or do you think that you Grim Reapers now believe you can act with impunity in the territory jointly managed by the Sidi and Gremory families?"

As the water flowed around Cangna, countless turbulent streams of water swirled and coiled like serpents.

Her greatest skill is water magic.

As the administrator representing the demon race here, if outsiders are allowed to act recklessly within my territory, then ultimately it will not only be I who lose face.

Moreover, the town of Komao is now under the watchful eyes of countless powerful forces.

If we back down now, I wonder how many people will laugh at us.

"I apologize for this."

The enormous skeleton bowed its head slightly, behaving with impeccable manners.

He was actually having a lot of headaches too.

Unexpectedly, the traitor who was tracking their side ended up in such a troublesome place.

"However, please allow me to resolve the internal issues first. Afterwards, we will personally offer compensation as an apology."

He is Pluto, a superior death god under Hades.

This time, they were following Hades' orders to hunt down traitors on their side, but they inadvertently stumbled into Kuoh Town.

He still has to abide by the unspoken rules followed by many powerful forces.

Otherwise, there will probably be people causing trouble in their own territory every day in the future.

Moreover, unless things were absolutely impossible, he didn't want to clash with the Gremory and Sidi families.

Zhi Qu Cangna frowned slightly.

She glanced at the timid Death Girl hiding behind her, and felt the gazes coming from all directions of Kuoh Town...

"If I remember correctly, you should be a half-human, half-death being, the daughter of the highest-ranking Death God, Erkus, and your name is Banya, right?"

Shiki Sona looked at the death goddess girl hiding behind him and asked.

"Yes, I have met you once before."

The Death Girl clutched her wounds and nodded hastily.

Zhi Qu Cang Na nodded, indicating that he understood.

Then, his cold gaze fell upon the skeleton before him.

"Then, Pluto, leave here. Kuoh Town does not welcome you."

Under other circumstances, she might have let it go and let the other person do as they pleased.

After all, as a demon, and not a partner of justice, why would he arbitrarily interfere in other people's internal affairs?

It is irrational to choose to become hostile because of a minor collision.

But in this chaotic Komaoh Town, if we do that...

No matter how they try to make amends afterward, the devil will inevitably lose face.

"Is that so? Well then, I'm sorry, but I also have my reasons for taking action. Lord Hades' mission must be completed."

The skeleton named Pluto slowly raised the scythe he was gripping tightly in his hand, his voice resolute.

As Hades' subordinate, he had a good understanding of his boss's personality.

No matter the reason, if you fail to complete the mission, you'll be severely injured even if you don't die.

This little Grim Reaper named Banya also rebelled because she disliked Hades's way of doing things and because of her parents' hatred.

"Although we are forced to confront each other here, it is only due to our different positions, so please do not take offense."

The skeleton said somewhat sincerely.

“I know that. I wouldn’t do something like crying and making a scene to my parents after losing.” Sona Shiki’s tone was calm, but she was on high alert.

The skeletal Grim Reaper named Pluto felt a slight sense of relief.

After all, although he was carrying out Hades' mission, he didn't want to incur the wrath of the two major demon families.

So, for version 5.0, just to be on the safe side, let's go all out against that traitorous little girl.

Since he was in the wrong, he decided to run away as soon as he finished the mission to avoid hurting the little girl from the Xidi family and to prevent making too much of a grudge against the Xidi family.

Pruto thought to himself.

As a veteran high-ranking Grim Reaper, he had enough confidence in his strength and believed that he was not someone that a mere junior could deal with.

Then he noticed that other people had arrived.

"Cangna, do you need any help here?"

Su Mu appeared beside Cang Na and raised his hand in greeting.

An aura comparable to, or even surpassing, that of a high-ranking demon emanated from his body.

At the same time, the human girl who appeared out of nowhere, whose strength was probably at the level of a high-ranking mage, also showed an expression of shared hatred.

There are three opponents of similar skill level on the other side.

Then, the skeletal grim reaper named Pluto nodded.

"Goodbye."

There are already three equally matched opponents; it seems like we're destined to lose.

Since we're sure we won't complete the mission anyway, why bother offending the devil for nothing?

So, he decisively slipped away.

"Thank you so much, Su Mujun, your power has increased again."

Seeing the skeleton death god leave, Shiki Sona immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the difference in strength may not seem significant, these veteran powerhouses have exceptionally rich combat experience.

If she were to actually take action, she had absolutely no confidence that she could protect the person she wanted to protect.

If someone who disregards the rules and trespasses into my territory were to successfully complete their mission...

So, both the Sidi family and the Gremory family have completely lost face.

However, what was unexpected was that Su Mu's power had become so strong.

Putting everything else aside, just in terms of the amount of spiritual power alone, it's already no less than hers.

Realizing this, her expression immediately became extremely complicated.

When Su Mu becomes even stronger than her...

Forget about whether Su Mu could agree; she herself probably wouldn't have the face to invite Su Mu to become her spouse.

To be honest, now that she sensed the power within Su Mu, her desire to make Su Mu her kin was beginning to fade.

and--

Looking at the smug magician holding a wand next to Su Mu, Zhi Qu Cang Na's expression became even more complicated.

"My power?" Su Mu chuckled softly. "In a sense, it was just a coincidence."

If it weren't for the successful awakening of the system, Su Mu might have just been reincarnated as a lower-level demon by someone in the 25th century.

If it weren't for Orpheus's arrival and that divine statement that allowed Su Mu to obtain the Tree of Kabbalah, he might still be struggling with the achievements around him.

Without the Major Arcana card "The World," which is most suitable for his current stage, Su Mu wouldn't have reached this level so quickly.

Therefore, it can only be described as a coincidence.

He acknowledges that luck played a part in his success, a fact he doesn't find difficult to admit.

"What a coincidence..."

Sona gently rubbed her temples, feeling a slight headache.

At that moment, she simply thought Su Mu was being modest.

Su Mu's rapid growth made her feel a little pressured.

As for her, it seems that by sheer coincidence, she missed the opportunity to make Su Mu her partner.

For some reason, she had a feeling that if she had hesitated less back then, Su Mu might already be her husband.

In fact... that is indeed the case.

Shiki Sona pulled back her chaotic thoughts and looked at the death goddess girl sitting on the ground behind her.

"Although it may seem a bit like you're using our gratitude to get something in return, it's undeniable that you've caused us a lot of trouble."

Shichiko's face remained expressionless, and he spoke somewhat stiffly.

"So, in exchange, would you be willing to become my servant?"

The gaze behind Sona's non-prescription glasses remained unwavering, making him appear somewhat aloof.

However, the Grim Reaper girl, kneeling on the ground and covered in wounds, nodded with some difficulty while covering her wounds.

"Thank you so much."

Upon hearing her answer, the expression on Sona's face seemed to soften a little.

In reality, rather than taking advantage of his life-saving grace to make her his family, it was more of a form of protection.

The Death Girl, whom Hades's underworld forces desperately wanted to eliminate, would likely have died on the spot as soon as she left Kuoh Town if she had no one to protect her.

Of course, it is an undeniable fact that Shiki Sona did take a liking to this death goddess girl and hoped that she could become his familiar.

As for how the Sidi family will negotiate with the Underworld, that's another matter entirely.

"Mr. Su Mu! Lu Fei!"

At this moment, Aisha, who had come out with Su Mu and Lu Fei, hurriedly arrived here, still a little out of breath.

"Well then, I'll take Banya back now; her injuries need treatment."
