People in Zongman, start plundering the Red Dragon Emperor entry

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Under Lin Dong's guidance, the white light enveloped the remaining soul of the Red Dragon Emperor.

Like boiling water, a sizzling sound was heard, and wisps of black smoke emerged from around the remnant soul.

These black smokes are the resentment of the remaining souls.

After it was all purified, the remnant soul's originally dull eyes regained a bit of consciousness.

"Thank you."

After nodding and thanking Lin Dong, the white light completely enveloped the remaining soul.

The next second, the remaining soul of the Red Dragon Emperor disappeared into the artifact space.

"Success!"

Ddraig's excited voice rang out.

"The consumption is a bit high."

Lin Dong wasn't particularly happy.

If he consumes too much life energy, he will become weak.

To retain a sufficient amount of life energy, you can only purify it bit by bit.

As his eyes swept over the remaining souls, Lin Dong came to a conclusion in his mind.

"It will take at least a month to clean up all these residual souls."

"That was pretty quick."

Ddraig consoled him, "Partner, you're a demon. You have a lifespan of at least ten thousand years."

"For you, a month will pass by like a nap."

"You are a metaphorical person."

Lin Dong shrugged and walked towards the next remaining soul of the Red Dragon Emperor.

Anyway, let’s get to work.

...

The underworld, with its capital Lilith.

Sirzechs, who had been busy reviewing documents all day, received a special contact after a long time.

"Long time no see, little Liya."

Looking at the figure projected on the screen in front of him, Sirzechs smiled.

"I didn't expect you to contact me on your own initiative. Are you in trouble?"

"Well, there is something I need your help with, brother."

Rias got straight to the point: "I want to cancel the engagement."

break off an engagement?

Sirzechs' expression straightened. "I can cancel the engagement, but could you please tell me the reason?"

"I don't like Lessa Phoenix and don't have any feelings for him."

"anything else?"

"Gone."

"I see."

After exchanging a glance with Grayfia who was standing nearby, Sirzechs replied.

"Rias, I can help you with breaking off the engagement, but I can't do it myself."

"I hope you can understand that the Demon King is not omnipotent. There are many people watching me."

"Don't worry, brother. I understand this kind of thing. I just want you to help me get in touch with me."

Rias held out her hand and clenched her fist. "Please give me a chance to play a ranking game with Raiser Phoenix."

"If he wins, I will follow my family's arrangements for everything that happens next. But if I win, I hope the engagement will end here."

"...nice expression."

Sirzechs and Rias stared at each other for a few seconds before a smile suddenly appeared on their faces.

"I helped with this matter. I will notify the Phoenix family later."

"Then I'll leave it to you, brother."

Rias nodded slightly and hung up the call.

Looking at the black screen in front of him, Sirzechs thought for a moment and then looked to the side.

"If I remember correctly, Xiao Liya recently recruited a new follower, right?"

Gurefia nodded: "It's a divine weapon holder named Lin Dong."

"Do you have any detailed information?"

"Have."

Gurefia handed over a document.

Sirzechs looked down and quickly noticed something was wrong.

"He occupied eight soldier chess pieces and single-handedly killed a special-grade cursed spirit on the eighth day after becoming a demon?"

"Yes, and according to subsequent investigations, the special-grade cursed spirit that was killed was not weak. It is suspected to be a special cursed spirit related to the forest."

"Interesting, no wonder Xiao Liya would go against her usual behavior and take the initiative."

Sirzechs' curiosity was piqued. "Please help me contact the Phoenix family."

"Yes."

......

Time passed, and the next day came in the blink of an eye.

After finishing his morning exercises, Lin Dong stopped by the Occult Research Club to take a shower.

However, unlike usual, there were two figures sitting in the club at this moment.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Lin Dong?"

A girl in a nun's uniform with long golden hair came over and asked.

Lin Dong nodded: "It's me."

"Great, I finally see you."

The blonde girl smiled happily and introduced herself.

"My name is Asia Agendo, thank you for saving me."

.....

Chapter 24: Strategically despise the enemy, tactically take the enemy seriously

As one of the heroines in the original novel, Lin Dong naturally knew Asia.

But what he didn't understand was why the other party appeared here.

According to Renalei's memory, shouldn't Asia still be on her way to Juwang Town at this time?

"I was the one who brought Asia here."

As if she had noticed Lin Dong's confusion, Rias, who was sitting nearby, began to explain.

"After we separated yesterday, I sent someone to find Asia and took the initiative to meet her."

"With the help of the recording crystal you gave me, I was able to explain the whole story to Asia."

"After that, I invited Asia to become a bishop, and she agreed."

Lin Dong was a little surprised: "So simple?"

"Actually, I hesitated for a while." Asia replied from the side.

For a nun who grew up in the church, Asia's faith is still very firm.

However, he was expelled from the church one after another and betrayed by the fallen angels he took in.

Even Asia couldn't help but feel shocked and her faith was shaken.

At this time, Rias, her savior, invited Asia to accept.

"Although it's a bit troublesome not being able to pray after becoming a demon, Miss Rias is a good person, and I'm very happy that I can meet Mr. Lin Dong."

"It's a simple reason indeed."

Lin Dong smiled at Asia, then looked at Rias beside him.

"You invited Asia for the battle with Raiser, didn't you?"

"I really can't hide it from you."

Rias nodded in acknowledgment.

As the saying goes, despise the enemy strategically and take the enemy seriously tactically.

Rias is confident in Lin Dong's ability, but she won't look down on Raiser because of that.

As a supernova in the evil underworld in recent years, Lesser is also very powerful.

In order to prepare for a possible protracted war, Rias set her sights on Asia.

The Virgin Mary's smile has a strong restorative power and is effective against demons.

As long as they could bring Asia into the team, they would be able to win even if Raiser used his immortality to fight a protracted battle.

"In order to repay the favor of saving my life, I will do my best to help Mr. Lin Dong and Ms. Rias win."

Asia, who was standing next to her, clenched her fists and spoke with a serious expression.

Actually, there is no need to take it so seriously.

Looking at Asia and Rias in front of him, Lin Dong showed an expression as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

These two people were so enthusiastic that he felt embarrassed to tell the truth.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

At this moment, a magic circle engraved with the Gremory family crest appeared on the ground not far away.

Flames rose in the magic circle, and a surging heat wave rushed towards him.

The next second, Lesser and Gurefia walked out of the magic circle.

"Huh~ It's been a while since I last came to the human world."

Lesser, wearing a red suit, tossed his hair and looked forward.

"Dear Rias, I'm here to see you."

Rias said with a straight face, "I don't think we're that familiar with each other. Please be careful with how you address me, Raiser."

Lessar shrugged. "Same old style, no mercy at all."

"You came all the way here just to tell me this?"

"That's not the case. I came here mainly to confirm one thing."

Raiser asked, "Rias, I heard you wanted to play a ranking game with me. Is that true?"

"Yes, it's true."

"Why would you do such a stupid thing? You should know you can't win."

Lessar's face was full of confidence.

Since his debut, he has won eight out of ten ranking matches.

He lost two of the games intentionally for the benefit of his family.
