People in Zongman, start plundering the Red Dragon Emperor entry

"I'll ask Rias later if there's any suitable load-bearing gear in the underworld."

...

At the same time, at Rias's house.

Rias, who had just returned home, picked up the phone and talked to her best friend about her troubles.

"Cang Na, can you believe it!"

"In that atmosphere, Lin Dong didn't think about hugging me or taking further action. Instead, he dragged me into a fight."

"Looking back now, I can't believe it. What on earth was he thinking? I can't understand it at all."

"If you could understand, wouldn't you also be a weirdo?"

On the other end of the phone, Sona, who had just laid down, picked up her glasses and put them on, sighing silently.

"So what happened next? Did you agree to his challenge?"

"...I agreed."

"Take that back. You're acting weird right now."

"You can't blame me for this."

Rias tried to save face: "Every time Lin Dong challenges me to a fight, he's always very persistent."

"If I don't agree, he will pester me every day."

"That's great, you two can spend more time together."

Sona sighed again, thinking about how to skip this topic.

But at this moment, Rias finally noticed that something was not right with her best friend.

"Cangna, are you in a bad mood?"

"I can't say it's bad. I'm still happy to see you out of this misery."

"Then why are you sighing all the time?"

"My family just contacted me."

Sona's voice revealed a hint of helplessness: "After watching your ranking game, they seemed worried that I would find a powerful follower to cause trouble, so they wanted me to complete the engagement quickly."

"Uh, sorry."

Rias looked a little embarrassed.

Like her, Sona's marriage was also arranged by her family.

Having similar experiences, Rias naturally understood Sona's feelings.

"No need to apologize. No matter how you look at it, it's not you who's at fault in this matter."

Sona's voice came from the other end of the phone: "And to be honest, I'm quite grateful to you. With your case, I think I can give it a try."

"Do you need help?"

"No, I'll find a way to solve it."

"Ok."

After some pleasantries, Rias hung up the call on her own initiative, a thoughtful look on her face.

Although Sona said she didn't need help, as a good friend, how could she just do nothing?

"Let's discuss this with Lin Dong later and see if he has any good ideas."

......

Seven in the morning, Occult Research Society.

"Good morning, Rias."

"Good morning, Lin Dong. Do you have a moment?"

"Of course, what's the matter?"

"I have something I want to tell you."

"What a coincidence, I also have something to tell you."

"?"

This conversation sounds familiar.

After staring at Lin Dong for a few seconds, Rias silently put down the teacup in her hand.

"I don't feel like fighting today."

"Well, you misunderstood."

Lin Dong waved his hand and told Rias about the weight training.

"Training by pulling tires or under waterfalls would solve the problem, but I'd rather have some heavy-duty equipment I can carry with me. Is there anything suitable in the underworld?"

Rias thought about it for a moment and then shook her head. "I don't think I have any memory of that. If you're not in a hurry, I can find out for you."

Most pure-blooded demons have very high talents.

Even if you do nothing, you will get stronger little by little over time.

In addition, demons have a long lifespan of at least 10,000 years, so most demons will not take the initiative to train.

In fact, inside the underworld.

Demons like her who agree to training and even bring their followers to train together are actually outliers.

Without such demand, the technology of weight-bearing equipment would naturally not be developed.

"Then please."

Lin Dong handed the matter over to Rias and then changed the subject.

"What did you want to tell me just now?"

"Sona's in trouble, and I was wondering if I could help her."

Omitting the complaining part, Rias recounted the conversation she had with Sona last night.

"Want to break off the engagement? I'm familiar with this."

Lin Dong patted his chest and said, "Leave it to me. I'll help Cang Na solve this problem."

Rias: “?”

You come to solve it? How are you going to solve it?

For some reason, looking at the confident Lin Dong in front of her, Rias had an inexplicable foreboding feeling.

"Tell me about your solution."

"Just like you, I can just challenge you to a fight using the ranking game and then beat you down."

"This method won't work. There's a big gap between Cangna's family and her fiancé's."

"Then find a way to narrow the gap."

"for example?"

Lin Dong raised his finger and pointed at himself: "Exchange the demon chess pieces with Cang Na, and let me join the fight."

Rias: “???”

You are such a genius.

Looking at the man in front of her who was expressing his astonishing wisdom, Rias opened her mouth hesitantly, not knowing what to say in response.

Lin Dong’s plan is indeed feasible.

Even if you only look at the results, there is a high probability of success.

However, correspondingly, public opinion in the underworld is also likely to explode.

"Personally, I don't want my boyfriend to have too many strange scandals."

"How can this be called a scandal?"

Lin Dong tilted his head: "Cang Na has a crush on me, it's not normal for me to help her."

"...Actually, I still don't understand how you came to this conclusion."

"I can tell."

Lin Dong glanced at the entry's notes and replied firmly, "Cang Na definitely has a crush on me!"

Rias: “…”

I need help online. How can I deal with my narcissistic boyfriend?

......

Chapter 29: Sona's Request, New Entity: Pure-Blooded Demon

Noon, Student Union Office.

"Exchange demonic chess pieces?"

After hearing Lin Dong's shocking proposal, Cang Na was not surprisingly stunned for a moment.

After a moment, she pushed up her glasses and asked hesitantly.

"Does Rias know about this?"

"know."

"She has no objection?"

"I had objections, but I tried to convince him."

"How did you convince him?"

Cang Na was a little curious.

"Depend on this."

Lin Dong took out a Sun Wukong mask and put it on his face under Cang's puzzled gaze.

"I can use magic to modify my appearance and body shape, and then wear a mask to conceal my identity."

"As long as I don't use the Sekiryuutei's gauntlet in battle, no one will know my identity."

"I see. This can indeed solve the problem to a certain extent."

There was a flicker of excitement in Cangna's eyes.

But after hesitating for a moment, she still nodded towards Lin Dong.

"I appreciate your kindness, but I don't need your help this time."

"why?"

"I'm well aware that my followers aren't strong enough, so I figured out a way to resolve this issue without resorting to force yesterday."

Sona tapped the tabletop, summoning a chessboard to appear on the desk in front of him.

"I'll go back to the underworld later and challenge my fiancé to a game of chess under the pretext of 'I won't marry a fool.'"

"If I lose one of the ten games, I lose. As long as I set this condition, the opponent will definitely take the bait and accept my challenge."

"So you have to win all ten games?"

"Yeah, but I'm sure."

Sona's face was full of confidence.

Seeing this, Lin Dong remembered the other party's entry.

[Overclocked Thinking (Red): Forces you to enter a calm state when dealing with problems, and your thinking speed is greatly accelerated, entering bullet time.]

With a fully activated overclocked mind, Sona does have an absolute advantage in playing chess.

"Well, I wish you success."

Lin Dong felt a little regretful.
