Crossover Anime: Winning over Misako Amamiya at the start

Chen Xiao leaned back lazily on the sofa as Astaroth massaged his shoulders: "The contract is two-way. She gains power, and I gain loyalty."

"You're kidding me!" Mikiko slammed her hand on the table and stood up. "Witch contracts are always about forced enslavement—"

Her words trailed off. Chen Xiao had appeared before her without her noticing, lightly lifting her chin with his finger: "What do you mean by 'always'?"

Mikiko's pupils contracted sharply. At such close range, she finally saw the terrifying power flowing in this man's eyes—an abyss capable of easily crushing her soul.

"I..." Her voice trailed off involuntarily.

Otonashi Miki suddenly knelt down in front of Chen Xiao: "Please, please help me! My brother has been captured by the Kowloon Society... Mr. Tachibana was killed while trying to help me..."

Chen Xiao's gaze shifted to the brown-haired girl. The Dimensional Eye indicated that she was just an ordinary human, but there was a strange fluctuation of magical power within her.

What's your brother's name?

“Otonashi Saya…” Miki sobbed.

Chen Xiao's fingers gently stroked Otonashi Miki's cheek, a glint of gold flashing in his eyes.

He activated Zafkiel's power, and time around him instantly froze.

Anne-Loz and Mikiko remained frozen in place, their expressions of surprise unchanged, while only Astaroth and Fennes were able to move freely.

"Master~" Fenneus circled around Otonashi Miki, poking her cheek with his finger, "There's something strange about this little girl~"

Astaroth's serpent tail swayed gently, her eyes flashing with a demonic light: "Her consciousness was subjected to a high-level suggestion magic, and..." She leaned down and sniffed, "The magician who created her carries the aura of Asmodeus in his magic."

Chen Xiao sneered: "It seems to be an undercover agent who deliberately approached Anne-Lorz and Mikiko."

Fenneus tilted his head: "Should we expose her now?"

"No rush." ​​Chen Xiao snapped his fingers, and time began to flow again.

Annerose snapped out of her daze and looked at Chen Xiao with a puzzled expression: "Master, wasn't that just now...?"

"It's nothing," Chen Xiao said casually, but his gaze was fixed on Miki Otonashi. "Miss Miki, could you tell me in detail how your brother was captured?"

Otonashi Miki's tears welled up instantly: "It was three nights ago when the Kowloon Society suddenly broke into our house..." Her narration flowed as if she had rehearsed it countless times.

Chen Xiao unleashed the Time Emperor once again, stopping the sound of Miki.

Astaroth and Fennes exchanged a meaningful glance. Mikiko, still reeling from the shock of time stopping, looked at Chen Xiao with admiration: "You can actually manipulate time..."

Anne-Loz keenly sensed something was amiss: "Master, is there a problem?"

Chen Xiao didn't answer directly. Instead, he walked to the window and looked at the Red Sky Tower in the night: "The crime scene is in the Red Sky Tower. The other party deliberately had the doll appear next to Meiqi Ke, simply to obtain information, or even..."

He turned to look at the crowd and said, "They probably want to find your hideout so they can get some kind of secret."

"What secret?" Miki asked instinctively.

Astaroth chuckled softly: "Didn't Master already guess that?"

Chen Xiao touched Astaroth's buttocks and laughed, "You tell me."

Her snake tail swayed gracefully: "It must be the Philosopher's Stone from the Scarlet Queen Esther."

“However…” Fenneus added, “the person controlling her doesn’t seem to realize that the Philosopher’s Stone is on Aishu, otherwise they wouldn’t have sent such a clumsy puppet to investigate.”

Anne-Loz suddenly realized: "So they were searching blindly?"

“That’s right.” Chen Xiao walked back to Otonashi Miki’s side, gently lifting her chin with his fingers. “This means that the person controlling her hasn’t had contact with the Crimson Queen yet.”

Upon hearing this, Anne-Loz blushed slightly and looked at Chen Xiao: "So what are your plans, dear master?"

The demon Astaroth, dressed in an office lady uniform, gently retracted her snake tail beneath the uniform, transforming it into long, beautiful legs, and gracefully leaned against Chen Xiao: "Master, are you planning to wait for me to come to you?"

Chen Xiao chuckled and pinched Astaroth's cheek: "We can just wait for the Kowloon Society to come to our door." He turned his gaze to Annerose, "The first thing the Kowloon Society will do when they come to our door is to deal with you, and as for us..." He made a gesture to disappear into the shadows.

"I see!" Annerose's eyes lit up. "You want us to be the bait!"

Mikiko looked worried: "If we do as you say, what if we're in danger..."

"Don't worry." Chen Xiao reached out and ruffled Meiqi Ke's green hair, making the girl blush. "Jingliu, Astaroth, Fenneus, and I will protect you in secret."

The words had barely left her lips when Annie Rose and Mikiko's eyes widened simultaneously. Mikiko, trembling, pointed at Astaroth: "You...you're Astaroth?! The legendary ruler of the Demon World, connecting the Demon World and the City of Gods and Demons?!"

Astaroth covered her mouth and chuckled softly: "Right now, I'm just Master's little maid~"

The two witches were speechless with shock. They never imagined that this legendary, terrifying being would actually be Chen Xiao's...woman?

Chen Xiao no longer concealed anything and revealed their entire plan to deal with the last demon god, Asmodeus. After listening, Annerose and Mikiko's eyes were filled with shock, but also with an indescribable admiration.

Annerose, in particular, felt a surge of heat from the power of the contract, her legs involuntarily pressing together: "M-Master..."

"Alright." Chen Xiao snapped his fingers. "The game is over. I'm going to restore time stop."

He turned to Jingliu and the others: "Let's go into hiding for now."

Time flows again.

Otonashi Miki recovered from the time stop and looked at Annerose and Misaki, who had suddenly become enthusiastic, with confusion: "What... is wrong with you two?"

“It’s nothing~” Annerose affectionately took the doll’s arm. “We’re just discussing how to save your brother.”

Mikiko smiled in agreement, "Yes, yes..."

Time passed, and night fell. 170

In the courtyard of the safe house, Anne-Lorze was pretending to discuss plans with Mikiko. Suddenly, the soil on the lawn began to move unnaturally.

"They're here," Annerose whispered a reminder.

The next second, dozens of Kowloon Society members burst out of the ground! Leading them was a stunningly beautiful woman dressed in traditional Eastern attire, holding twelve silver needles that gleamed coldly in the moonlight.

"Finally found you!" the woman sneered. "Anneiroz, how have you been?"

"It's Li Meifeng, the White Snake!" Annerose's pupils shrank, and her body instinctively assumed a defensive stance.

She knew all too well how terrifying this opponent was—the human assassin who had transplanted a witch's tattoo onto his back, gaining forbidden powers.

Li Meifeng's red lips curved slightly, the silver needles in her hand gleaming with an eerie green light: "Long time no see, Annerose~" Her voice was sweet, yet it sent chills down one's spine, "I let you escape last time, but not this time~"

Before the words were even finished, twelve poisoned silver needles had already pierced through the air!

Anne-Lorze hurriedly deployed a mechanical barrier, but the silver needles strangely bypassed the defense and went straight for her vital points.

"Mechanical Magic - Defense Matrix!" Annerose rapidly formed hand seals, and a protective shield composed of intricate gears appeared around her. However—

"Too slow~" Li Meifeng's figure flashed behind her like a ghost, and a snake made of white energy darted out from her sleeve and bit Annerose's neck hard!

"Ah!" Annerose cried out in pain as the mechanical matrix instantly collapsed.

She staggered backward as the poison spread rapidly, numbing half of her body.

Seeing this, Meiqi Ke wanted to help, but was blocked by three members of the Kowloon Society at the same time.

Miki Otonashi huddled in a corner, trembling.

"Is that all you've got?" Li Meifeng chuckled as she approached, white energy snakes slithering around her. "And you call yourself a pure-blooded witch?" She suddenly ripped open Annerose's collar. "Let me see... where's your contract mark?"

Anne-Lorze was filled with shame and indignation, but powerless to resist.

The poison blurred her vision, and she could only watch helplessly as Li Meifeng's hand touched her chest—

"(cbae) Bang!"

A dark shadow flashed by, and Li Meifeng suddenly retreated, leaving a large crater where she had been standing.

"Who gave you permission to touch my things?" Chen Xiao's figure slowly emerged from the shadows, the Dark Bible flipping through his hands.

Astaroth and Fennes stood on either side of him behind him, while Kagami Ryu blocked Li Meifeng's retreat with his sword.

Li Meifeng's expression changed slightly: "You are...?"

“Master!” Annerose called out weakly, her face flushed and her breathing rapid from the poison.

Chen Xiao waved his hand casually, and the power of the Dark Bible instantly purified the toxins in her body: "Step back, leave this to me."

Li Meifeng quickly regained her composure, a white energy snake slithering between her fingers: "Interesting~ Another one sent to its death." She suddenly flicked out three silver needles, "Taste my White Snake Kiss!"

The silver needles suddenly transformed into three white snakes during flight, baring their venomous fangs and lunging at Chen Xiao!

"A mere trick." Chen Xiao didn't even move; the Dark Bible automatically turned its pages, and a black barrier swallowed all attacks. He slowly moved forward, and with each step he took, Li Meifeng took a step back.

"Impossible!" Li Meifeng gritted her teeth and summoned even more white snakes, "Ten Thousand Snakes Devour the Heart!"

Dozens of white energy snakes surged from behind her, a terrifying sight. However, Chen Xiao simply snapped his fingers—

"Kfkl - Time Freeze".

In an instant, all the white snakes froze in mid-air. Chen Xiao strolled leisurely through the swarm of snakes and arrived in front of Li Meifeng. He grabbed her by the neck with one hand and lifted her off the ground: "Is that all you've got?"

Li Meifeng was horrified to discover that the witch tattoo on her back was fading!

The power of the Dark Bible is stripping her of her abilities!

"No...no..." she struggled, her legs kicking weakly in the air. Chen Xiao gripped Li Meifeng's neck with his left hand, and casually swung his right. In an instant, all the members of the Nine Dragons Society in the courtyard stiffened simultaneously, their pupils dilated rapidly, black blood flowed from their seven orifices, and they all fell to the ground dead like puppets on strings.

“You…!” Li Meifeng’s pupils contracted violently, her legs kicking helplessly in the air. She had never seen such a horrific method of killing—no incantation, no hand seals, just a simple wave of the hand.

Chen Xiao pulled her closer, their noses almost touching: "Now, we can have a proper talk." His voice was deep and magnetic, and his golden rhythm made Li Meifeng's heart beat faster involuntarily.

“Talk about…what…” Li Meifeng began with difficulty, the white energy snakes swirling uneasily around her, yet daring not to attack.

“For example…” Chen Xiao suddenly released his grip, and Li Meifeng fell to the ground. He knelt on one knee, lightly lifting her chin with his finger, “Why do you work for that trash from the island nation?”

Li Meifeng rubbed her neck, her eyes filled with complex emotions: "The Kowloon Society gave me power..."

"This kind of inferior transplant technique?" Chen Xiao scoffed, running his finger along the tattoo on her back.

The power of the Dark Bible surged, and the tattoo began to fade. "It's just a trick Asmodeus has already played."

Li Meifeng was shocked as she sensed the changes in the power within her body: "You... how can you possess such terrifying abilities...?"

"Are Yazaki Souichi and Rial your superiors?" Chen Xiao suddenly asked.

Li Meifeng nodded subconsciously, then became wary: "You know them?"

Chen Xiao gave a meaningful smile: "Of course. After all..." His voice suddenly turned cold, "I'm the one who scared them into hiding."

Li Meifeng trembled. She finally understood why she hadn't been able to contact the two leaders recently—it was because of the man in front of her!

"How about it?" Chen Xiao suddenly pulled her into his arms, his alluring eyes looking directly into hers. "How about submitting to me? After all..." His fingers traced her red lips, "We are both Chinese."
