My fiancée Yukino

"Is the treatment over?"

Shinobu Kocho nodded: "The seriously injured can be stabilized with magic, so I only need to take care of a few lightly injured people. Besides, there are quite a few medical personnel on site, so I don't have too much work."

Taking Shinobu Kocho's hand, Luo Bai asked, "Did you encounter any unexpected problems when dealing with that priest?"

"No~" Shinobu Kocho chuckled. "The enemy was in the open while I was in the dark. After seeing that the other party had a hostage, I directly used a sneak attack, giving him no time to react. Otherwise, with the level of magic of a World Priest, he would be really difficult to deal with, especially since he can fly."

As a master of poison, Shinobu Kocho wouldn't be thinking about fair fights when dealing with enemies, especially when there are hostages involved.

Therefore, Luo Bai was quite at ease with Shinobu Kocho.

Looking at the collapsed building, Luo Bai sighed, "Luckily we were nearby. Otherwise, with Lucifer's strength, the situation in Shinjuku would have been very different. It's impossible that it was only damaged this little; the number of casualties would definitely have increased."

Even with the Demon King and the Hero having recovered some of their strength, Luo Bai didn't think they could truly protect everyone.

Although her date was interrupted, Luo Bai was still quite fortunate that the damage was minimized.

Shinobu Kocho nodded in agreement, leaning gently on Raku's shoulder as she waited for Sadao Mao's treatment to finish.

Ten minutes later, the seriously injured person's condition stabilized, and he was immediately taken to the hospital by medical personnel for further treatment.

Standing up, Sadao Maou wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "It's over. The magic power I've accumulated over the past few months is almost all gone."

Ashiya Shiro, one of his subordinates, and Yusa Emi were in similar situations.

Yusa Emi was alright; being able to save people was something to be happy about. She glanced at the two demons beside her and sneered, "It's good that your magic power is exhausted; this way, you won't pose much of a threat to this world!"

"Um... I wasn't a threat to begin with."

Maou Sadao scratched his cheek awkwardly. "I'm just a fast food worker. Instead of thinking about ruling the world, I'd rather think about how to work hard and get a higher salary. Besides, have you forgotten about the fighting power of this world? That person's fighting power is not to be underestimated."

Yusa Emi also remembered and looked at Luo Bai and Kocho Shinobu who were walking over.

Volume 1: Chapter 262 Heading to the Tokyo Base (2/2)

Bringing Shinobu Kocho over, Luo Bai looked at the three of them and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, all three of you." "You've finished helping out here. Now come with me. The person in charge of the Tokyo area will be back later to have a proper chat with you."

Maou Sadao swallowed hard and asked somewhat nervously, "Um, could you tell me how you're going to handle our situation?"

Luo Bai shrugged and said, "I don't know about that. I usually live in Chiba. I came to Tokyo today just to accompany my girlfriend. But I think she already knew about you. Since she didn't drive you away, nothing bad should happen afterward."

Just then, a black car pulled up, and the driver got out and nodded to Luo Bai.

“Go ahead, that car will take you to the Guardians’ base in Tokyo. We’ll see you there later.”

Seeing that everything had been arranged for him, Sadao Maou did not resist, knowing that he had no chance of refusing, and led his men toward the car.

"Hye-mi, don't just stand there, let's go."

Ignoring Maou Sadao's urging, Yusa Emi looked at Luo Bai and said, "Can I not ride in the same car as them?"

"Hey, what do you mean?" Ashiya Shiro said angrily. "It's your honor to ride in the same car as the Demon King!"

Unfortunately, Yuza Emi still ignored them and continued to watch Luo Bai's side.

Luo Bai nodded: "Okay, I understand. You can ride in the same car with us then, is that alright?"

"Thank you so much."

Sadao Maou wasn't surprised. He shrugged and then got into the car with Shiro Ashiya and left.

Soon, the second car arrived, and Luo Bai, along with Kocho Shinobu and Usa Emi, got in and headed towards the base.

In the car, Luo Bai sat on the left, Kocho Shinobu in the middle, and Yusa Emi on the far right.

After an initial silence, she looked at the two of them and asked, "Um, what will happen to Olba in the end?"

Luo Bai, holding Shinobu Kocho's hand with one hand and resting his other hand against the car window, said, "I don't know the specifics either. As I said before, I'm in Chiba, not part of the Tokyo area organization, or even the Guardians organization. I just happened to be here, so I was called in to help. As for the outcome, the lightest thing I'll do is remove his magic and throw him back to his original world. After all, he planned to cause trouble here and even kidnapped hostages; that's no small matter."

"The lightest..."

Hearing Luo Bai say this, Yuza Emi roughly understood, but she didn't feel sorry for Olba, since the other party was also planning to get rid of her.

But the other party was someone who had fought alongside him in the resistance and was also a high-ranking member of the church. He never expected that the other party would end up like this.

Looking at Yusa Emi's expression, Shinobu Kocho said softly, "Although I don't know much about your past experiences in your own world, you need to know one thing: people's hearts are very complicated. Although you are wholeheartedly fighting against the demons, others may not think the same way, especially organizations like the Church. You can't use your simple thoughts to understand them. Like this time, in order to prevent your reputation from affecting the Church's control, the Church decided to eliminate you, without caring at all about your importance as a hero."

"..."

Yusa Emi remained silent, but she knew that Shinobu Kocho was right.

Luo Bai then said, "According to the information I have, you are currently working at a telecommunications company as a customer service representative, right?"

Putting aside the jumbled thoughts in her mind, Yuza Emi looked at Luo Bai and asked, "Yes, what's wrong?"

"Compared to the demon duo from before, I reckon Nangong Nayue will consider recruiting you into the Guardian organization, given your considerable strength. Compared to being customer service, you could..."

With a better working environment, there's also a higher income, and the work pressure isn't too high. Ah, as for Nagisa Nanami, she's the guardian of the Tokyo area, whom you'll meet later.

Although it's not confirmed, given Nangong Nayue's fondness for talented people, she will most likely do so.

Yusa Emi said in surprise, "Huh? Are you trying to recruit me?"

"That's right. She should have discovered you the moment you arrived in our world. Don't underestimate her abilities. Since we had no contact before, she was probably secretly gathering information about your personality."

After hearing what Luo Bai said, Shinobu Kocho smiled and looked at him: "Although Luo-kun didn't join the Guardians, I did. I'm from another world, just like you, but not in Tokyo, but in Chiba. I'm currently in charge of the medical team's operations."

"You, are you one too?"

Usa Emi was surprised to find that she had encountered someone who had the same experience as her.

Shinobu Kocho nodded: "There are quite a few people like us. Even in Chiba, a few dragons have settled down and are living very comfortably. However, being a customer service representative at a telecommunications company is really not suitable for you, after all, you used to be a hero, and the salary for this job is relatively low. Joining the Guardian Organization would offer much better benefits in terms of salary and accommodation."

To be honest, Emi Usa was a little tempted.

Although my job has stabilized now, it's really busy and mentally exhausting, and the salary isn't much, plus a large portion of it goes towards rent.

Previously unaware of this, now that she has learned about this special organization in the world, Usa Emi has begun to seriously consider whether or not to join.

"Well, I'll meet with them later. I need to think about it some more."

Luo Bai didn't insist, which was normal.

Twenty minutes later, the car arrived at a large office building.

After parking in the underground parking lot, a staff member waiting there led everyone to take the elevator, not up, but directly down to the underground base.

Luo Bai, who was also visiting for the first time, said with great surprise, "It's different from the one in Chiba. It's actually built underground."

The person leading the way smiled and said, "The building upstairs is mainly for clerical staff who handle daily work, as well as related finances, outsourcing, and so on. The operatives' daily training, mission assignments, interrogations, and the containment of special personnel are all carried out at the base downstairs."

Just then, the elevator arrived.

As soon as the elevator doors opened, Luo Bai saw Shi Yu standing there.

"Luo Jun!"

Luo Bai was quite surprised when Shi Yu happily threw herself into his arms.

"Shiyu? Since you're here, why didn't you send me a message?"

"Hehe, if I had sent a message, there wouldn't have been this surprise, right?" Shi Yu snuggled into Luo Bai's arms, stood up and glanced at Maou Sadao and the other two. "It's the three of them, right? Let's go, the lounge has been arranged for you. Yue-nee has finished her work in Hokkaido and will be back in ten minutes."

Volume 1: Chapter 263 Recruitment (1/2)

Leading everyone to a lounge, Shiyu opened the door and said, "The girl that Shinobu rescued earlier is here now, and she has woken up."

As soon as the door opened, everyone saw the girl sitting inside, looking somewhat uneasy.

She has a petite figure, pigtails, and an adorable face, but an exaggerated figure that doesn't match her age.

She was Sasaki Chiho, Saoko's colleague and junior at the Maou Sadao fast food restaurant.

"Real brother!"

Upon seeing Sadao Maou, Chiho Sasaki immediately rushed over and threw herself into his arms.

"Chiho, are you alright?"

Shaking her head, Sasaki Chiho said with lingering fear, "I don't know how, I ran into someone with a weird hairstyle, and then I passed out. When I woke up, I was already here, and then he explained a bunch of nonsense to me. Makoto, are you really not human?"

"Forehead......"

Maou Sadao paused awkwardly for a moment, then looked towards Shiwa.

Shi Yu shook her head: "It wasn't me who said it. It's mainly because the other party knows you, which is why they were brought here. Since they're here, we definitely need to explain. Whether to erase or retain the memory later can be discussed further. So, you should rest for now. Food has been prepared for you."

As he spoke, he winked at Luo Bai and Butterfly, and then left.

Luo Bai nodded and said to Mao Sadao and the others, "You should rest for a while."

Then he took Shinobu Kocho with him and went out.

Once outside, Shi Yu happily hugged Luo Bai's arm.

"Luo Jun, did anything unexpected happen up ahead?"

"Don't worry, I won't do anything I'm not sure I can handle. Knowing that my opponent is strong, I always aim for a quick victory and don't give them a chance to make a move, so it ended very quickly. As for you, I didn't hear you say you were going to work here today."

Shiyu smiled and said, "Because the novel's manga is progressing quite smoothly, I don't need to be busy with these things all the time. Plus, Sister Yue went to Hokkaido these past few days, so I've been coming over to help out with some things. Luo Jun, how was your date today?"

"not bad."

Luo Bai nodded and looked at Shinobu Kocho on the other side.

Shinobu Kocho squinted her eyes happily and said, "I'm quite happy. Although this unexpected event happened, we still managed to go to all the places we wanted to visit and have fun. Luo Jun even bought me a new bag earlier."

As they spoke, they took out their bags, and the two girls put Luo Bai aside and started discussing the bags.

Seeing that he had no chance to join the conversation, Luo Bai shrugged and returned to the lounge.

When the door was opened, several people in the lounge were eating, and then Maou Sadao told Sasaki Chiho about his identity.

The fact that the other world, with its demons, demon kings, and heroes, was real truly shocked Sasaki Chiho.

But considering where I am now, it's not so unacceptable.

"Looks like we've covered most of it?"

Seeing Luo Bai enter, Maou Sadao nodded and thanked him again, saying, "Thank you so much for saving Chiho."

"Of course, since we've encountered this kind of situation and have the ability to handle it, we certainly won't let it go unchecked."

After sitting down on the single sofa, Luo Bai glanced at Yusa Emi, who was silently drinking juice, and said, "You've revealed your identity, so it seems you don't want your memories to be erased, your junior?"

Scratching his head, Maou Sadao said, "I actually wanted to erase Chiho's memories, but she wasn't willing, and I couldn't force her. Now I'm gradually getting used to the magical energy in the air of this world, and I'm slowly recovering some of my strength. As long as someone like Lucifer doesn't appear again, I can still protect my friends."

"Alright, you can decide for yourself."

Nodding, Luo Bai looked at Sasaki Chiho and said, "Since you've decided not to erase my memories, Sasaki Chiho, please don't reveal what you know, okay? I'll have you sign a confidentiality agreement later."

"No problem, I will definitely protect it."

"Dense!"

Sasaki Chiho answered with a serious expression.

Meanwhile, Yusa Emi finished her thinking and looked at Luo Bai, saying, "I've decided, I want to join."

"Looks like you've made up your mind."

Just then, Luo Bai's phone vibrated. He picked it up, glanced at it, and said, "Perfect timing. The person in charge is back. Let's go out together. Sasaki, you can wait here for a bit. I'll have Shinobu and Shiho keep you company, so you won't be bored."

After saying that, he led Mao Sadao and the other two out of the lounge and headed to Minamiya Nazuki's office.

Pushing open the office door, Luo Bai saw Nangong Nayue sitting there, still wearing her usual black gothic dress, holding a teacup in her hand, drinking tea while reading the incident report that had just been delivered.

Seeing Luo Bai arrive with the three of them, she put down what she was holding and said, "Please sit down."

After sitting down in the chairs that had been set out, Nangong Nayue first looked at Yusa Emi and said with interest, "A half-angel and half-human is quite rare. Would you like to join us?"

Yusa Emi agreed without hesitation: "Sure, what about the salary and benefits?"

Because Shiyu had already relayed the conversation between Luo Bai and the others and Yuza Emi in the car to Nangong Nayue, she also knew what the other party's demands were.

"Of course, the compensation will be excellent. I'll give you a contract for a Level 1 staff member later. You can take a look and we can revise it if you're not satisfied. As for your strength, we will do our best to help you restore it, including returning to your original world. However, once you sign the contract, you'll have to settle here with us. Please think this through."

Reflecting on the betrayal by the church, Yusa Emi is no longer as fixated on returning to her original world as she was at the beginning.

"Sure, but I definitely need to go back there; many of my friends are there."

Then, she glanced at Sadao Mao sitting next to her.

"In addition, my business with the demons also needs to be settled."
