Chapter 23

Successfully recruiting two Familia members, Lin En’s strength had increased once again.

He had a premonition that he was not far from a breakthrough.

The [Devil Contract] skill was truly amazing!

Just one world-crossing, and in a short time, he had gained two Familia members, plus this leveling dungeon.

It was an absolute steal!

Once Shizuka Marikawa had tidied her clothes, Lin En briefly introduced the situation of the Familia to the two of them.

A moment later, Saeko Busujima nodded and said, "I see, so the Familia’s base is actually in another world?"

As she spoke, she couldn't help but look at Lin En.

The master was even capable of crossing worlds.

As expected of the master!

"Eh? Another world?" Shizuka Marikawa blinked, "So curious!"

"Don't worry, I'll take you there when there's a chance."

"Mmm-hmm!"

Hearing the answer she wanted, Shizuka Marikawa nodded frantically like a puppy, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Before that, let’s finish the business in this world."

Saeko Busujima’s expression became serious, "Master, please give your orders!"

"No need to be so serious, Saeko."

Lin En’s expression was relaxed, and then he said, "I plan to turn this world into a fixed location for the Familia to grind experience, what do you think?"

Saeko Busujima was stunned for a moment, then thought seriously, "Our world is indeed very suitable right now."

The "them" were not very strong, and there were many of them.

Very suitable for Familia members of their low level to grind experience.

"Then it’s decided!"

Lin En clapped his hands, deciding on the plan for the future.

"First, we need to establish a safe Familia base."

"Not only can it be used as a residence for you and Shizuka, but it can also provide a place for Familia members to rest when they come over."

"Right now, we don't have many Familia members, so the base doesn't need to be too big; as long as there are enough rooms, complete facilities, and it’s comfortable to live in, that’s fine."

Saeko Busujima nodded, seriously noting down all of Lin En’s requirements.

As for the other Familia members, she had heard about them from Lin En before.

They were also two girls.

This made her feel much more at ease.

After all, since they might be living in the same base, it was better that everyone was a girl.

As for men, having the master was enough.

"Ah! I have an idea!"

Shizuka Marikawa raised her hand, "Minami Rika’s house, it fits the master’s requirements perfectly!"

Saeko Busujima asked in confusion, "Minami Rika?"

"Mmm-hmm!" Shizuka Marikawa nodded, "My friend, she’s a policewoman, very capable!"

Lin En made the final decision, "Alright, let’s go there first, Shizuka, lead the way."

"Yay!"

Lin En also had an impression of that place.

The house was nice, and it seemed to hide some firearms and such.

It was just that this batch of firearms probably wouldn't have much use.

Devils, naturally, should use devilish methods.

With a plan in place, the three of them prepared to leave Fujimi Academy and head to Minami Rika’s house.

Saeko Busujima was also planning to kill more "them" on the way, to test her current strength and skills while training her ability values.

Of course, the most important thing was to satisfy certain desires.

"Minami Rika’s house is still a distance away, why don't we drive there?"

Shizuka Marikawa suggested, and incidentally pulled a car key out from her chest!

"...Didn't you just strip naked, why can you still take things out!"

Saeko Busujima couldn't help but retort.

"Hehe!"

Saeko Busujima wanted to say something else, but suddenly heard a sound coming from the end of the hallway.

"W-why did the stairs disappear!!"

"Shh! Keep your voice down, Takagi-san, do you want to attract all those guys here!"

"Ugh..."

Are they girls?

Saeko Busujima felt that one of the voices sounded familiar.

"Master..."

Lin En understood what she meant and said, "It’s fine, let’s go together, we were going to leave anyway."

At the place where the stairs had been destroyed by Lin En.

Saeko Busujima saw the people above.

"Miyamoto-san?"

"Busujima-senpai?"

Both of them were stunned for a moment.

They didn't expect to encounter acquaintances in such a situation.

Lin En also looked up.

Sure enough, they were characters from the original protagonist group.

But...

It seemed like two people were missing?

If Lin En remembered correctly.

That male protagonist and a chubby guy?

Had something changed the plot?

Lin En thought for a moment, and then realized.

If one were to ask what had happened.

Lin En looked at the scene before him.

Wasn't this the biggest change?

A lightning strike, taking out the male protagonist and a supporting character?

Precision strike?

Not necessarily.

Perhaps it was because the huge noise attracted more "them" than in the original work, causing them to get separated.

Even if they were alive, facing so many "them," it shouldn't be easy for them, right?

But it didn't matter.

He wasn't interested in men.

Hmm... pink and white.

Standing in Lin En’s position, he could clearly see the underside of Rei Miyamoto and Saya Takagi’s skirts.

"Ugh—"

Rei Miyamoto and Saya Takagi clearly reacted as well.

Upon discovering that there was still a boy below, they hurriedly clamped their skirts shut.

"Um, Busujima-senpai, what is the situation now?"

Rei Miyamoto asked in a low voice.

She looked at the surroundings, which had been destroyed beyond recognition, her eyes somewhat dazed.

The stairs were gone, how were they supposed to get down?

PS: Please provide data!!

PS: Thanks to all the big brothers who provided data!!

"Hey!"

Rei Miyamoto jumped down from above.

Like a homing pigeon, she threw herself into Lin En’s arms.

Lin En’s chest immediately felt the impact of the young girl.

"Thank you!"

Rei Miyamoto got down from Lin En, bowed deeply, her eyes unable to help but sneakily look at Lin En’s arm, her ears slightly hot.

Such strong arm strength!

It felt like he had caught her so easily.

Next was Saya Takagi.

She was a bit more timid, keeping her eyes closed the whole time she jumped, not daring to open them.

Only after her feet touched the ground did she feel secure.

"We survived!"

After a unanimous discussion, they had decided to jump down directly.

They had expected to get hurt at least a little, but who would have thought it would be so easy?

She felt it was somewhat magical.

Also thanking Lin En, the group finally gathered.

But after passing one hurdle, there was another.

Rei Miyamoto cast her gaze downward.

"Them"!

All "them"!!

Although the stairs had disappeared, these "them" had gathered, and unconsciously, they had actually piled up like Arhats.

If they didn't find a way to leave, these guys would climb up sooner or later.

"What should we do?"

Rei Miyamoto subconsciously cast her gaze toward the only man here.

The "them" that were very terrifying to Rei Miyamoto and Saya Takagi, Lin En didn't even bother to look at.

"Saeko, I’ll leave it to you."

Eh?

Rei Miyamoto and Saya Takagi were stunned for a moment.

Busujima-senpai?

What is she going to do?

"Yes! Master!"

Mas-mas-mas-master??

Rei Miyamoto and Saya Takagi heard Saeko Busujima’s address to Lin En, and their eyes widened.

C-could it be some kind of sexual play?

They looked at each other, unable to help but speculate.

What was the relationship between this man and Busujima-senpai?

Boyfriend?

On the other side.

Saeko Busujima couldn't control herself and licked her lips, her eyes filled with a trace of excitement.

When she saw these "them," she had long been unable to hold back.

But Lin En hadn't given the word, so she had been enduring it.

Now she had finally waited!

It was the perfect time to test the ability the master had granted her!

*Clang—*

The blade left its sheath.

The twilight sun shone on the blade, rendering it with a dazzling golden hue.

Holding it in her hand, Saeko Busujima felt a flash of enlightenment.

As if by instinct, she swung it down fiercely!

*Rip—*

The sound of tearing through the air exploded in her ears!

A white light instantly rushed toward the "them"!

*Splatter!*

The "them" piled together were instantly cut apart!

Blood gushed out!

If one looked closely, one could even see the extremely smooth cuts where they had been severed.

"Whew—"

Seeing the gushing blood, Saeko Busujima’s breathing was noticeably heavier.

But Lin En frowned slightly.

Saeko Busujima, who was constantly paying attention to Lin En, calmed down instantly and looked at Lin En cautiously.

"Remember to cut the heads next time, otherwise the efficiency is too low."

That was the one bad thing about "them."

If you didn't blow their heads off, they wouldn't die easily.

Saeko’s slash just now had a great visual effect, but it was clear that the "them" whose heads hadn't been cut off were still active.

"Yes! Master!"

Saeko Busujima let out a breath of relief.

Thank goodness, she wasn't disliked!

The small killing spree just now had stirred up her excitement and exposed a tiny bit of her nature.

Lin En’s frown had scared her into thinking she was disliked.

She took a deep breath and restrained herself slightly.

Swinging the katana again, the slashes landed precisely on the heads of the "them," never cutting anywhere else again.

On the other side.

Watching Saeko Busujima display her might.

Rei Miyamoto and Saya Takagi were both scared silly.

Sword, sword energy?!!

Busujima-senpai unleashed sword energy?!!

Is, is this still Japan??

Rei Miyamoto and Saya Takagi looked at each other again, both seeing the shock in the other’s eyes.

Could it be that in the midst of this "them" crisis, some humans had evolved?!

"Wow! Busujima-san is so amazing!!"

Marikawa-sensei, are you not shocked at all!! X2

That was sword energy!!

Supernatural!!

Completely and utterly supernatural!!!

Rei Miyamoto and Saya Takagi were screaming frantically in their hearts!

Both were full of questions.

They wanted to ask Busujima-senpai.
