Lynn, the expressions of Rias and Akeno Himejima changed suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Akeno Himejima was no longer smiling, but opened her eyes and looked at Rias silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, Lynn’s move just now revealed a lot of things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only does it require more precise manipulation of magic, but the quality of magic is also an important factor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least if they were to do it, it wouldn't look so easy and effortless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn’s strength, it seems a bit incomprehensible

do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that the terrifying Stray Devil couldn't move, Mahiru Shiina felt relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, under the gaze of Rias and the others, she took out a... handgun?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias: \"??\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before she could say anything, she saw Mahiru Shiina raise her hand, and dazzling white light gathered from the

immediately!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It twisted its huge body frantically, its face covered with hideous blood vessels, as if poisoned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bullet didn't penetrate its body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it’s a Middle-class Devil, and human weapons are hard to cause damage to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren't for the light attribute, this bullet wouldn't even be able to break its skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the light was like a bone-eating poison, constantly devouring its flesh and blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding skin disappeared in an instant, revealing the muscles, blood vessels, and even bones underneath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren't for Lynn’s restraint, it could still put up some resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Middle-class Devils are indeed thick-skinned.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn was very satisfied with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mahiru, use it to your heart’s content.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mahiru Shiina: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stray Devil: \"@￥... @#%!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>PS: Seeking data!!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"This is... light attribute?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias watched Shiina Mahiru, who was incessantly testing the intensity of the light attribute on that stray devil, her expression growing complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lin En, you... did you kidnap an angel to be your servant?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Angel?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin En thought of Shiina Mahiru's nickname, \"You could say that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias: \"......I'm starting to admire you a little.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder he was looking for a stray devil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it was to test the extent of what the light attribute could do to a devil?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias's face suddenly stiffened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin En, why is he testing these things?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She suddenly felt a bit uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It should be... to target the Old Satan Faction, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias guessed correctly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin En indeed had that intention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the effects would give him a baseline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In case he was ever targeted by those lunatics in the future, it would count as a trump card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias observed for a while, doubts arising in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come to think of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If an angel reincarnates as a devil, are they actually able to retain their light abilities?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But didn't she also reincarnate a half-breed fallen angel?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why hadn't she ever seen Zhu Nai use light-attribute magic?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias pretended to casually glance at Himejima Akeno, who had suddenly fallen silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it because of her bloodline that she didn't want to use it, or was it not retained at all?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she was suspicious, Rias didn't want to bring up Akeno's identity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Akeno, this was an indelible pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias looked at the stray devil that had already lost its breath, her eyelids twitching uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was simply too gruesome to look at!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shiina Mahiru was also panting with exhaustion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at the weapon in Shiina Mahiru's hand and said, \"This human weapon doesn't suit her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Rias's words, Lin En's eyes immediately lit up, \"Then does Rias have anything suitable?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias: \"......\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gave Lin En an indescribable look, \"Are you... treating me like Santa Claus?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin En shrugged, \"Can't help it, who else do I know who is as beautiful, kind-hearted, wealthy, and powerful as you, Young Lady?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beautiful and kind-hearted!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias reached out to the right, and a magic circle appeared in mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flintlock pistol interwoven with white and gold was produced by her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take this Blazing Flame Gun!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin En's eyes lit up instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Does it have a holy attribute?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias: \"?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You're even being picky?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kuoh Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Occult Research Club.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias slapped her forehead in annoyance, \"Did I really just give away the Blazing Flame Gun so easily?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Himejima Akeno brought black tea to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias picked up the tea and complained, \"Akeno, why didn't you stop me back then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Himejima Akeno smiled slightly, \"At that time, the President had already been hit by the magic called 'sweet talk,' so there was nothing I could do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias sighed, \"Let's just call it an investment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's right, an investment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She did indeed think highly of Lin En.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she and Lin En communicated quite frequently, it was mostly on their phones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In reality, they had only met three times in total. But every time they met, she could perceive subtle changes in Lin En.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Rias's expression became serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Akeno, have you felt that Lin En has become more... than last time?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"More unfathomable?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias hesitantly voiced her thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin En's strength seemed to be much greater than last time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was her intuition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Unfathomable, huh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Himejima Akeno's eyes shifted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To this day, she hadn't forgotten that black lightning on Lin En's fingertip last time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said softly, \"President, is it possible...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That he has always been an unfathomable man, and you only just noticed today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias was stunned for a moment, murmuring, \"Is that so?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was a bit uncertain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, during their first meeting, other than Lin En's personality and looks leaving a deep impression on her, she hadn't felt anything special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But today, it really gave her a different feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes shifted as she thought of Lin En's peerage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it was Kasumigaoka Utaha before, or Shiina Mahiru this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The quality was terrifyingly high!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A secretary devil, and an... angel devil?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought of Lin En's other peerage members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She muttered to herself, \"Could it be... that Lin En's other peerage members are also children with special talents?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems I really do need to understand Lin En more deeply.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias made a decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very least, she should ask him for some advice on recruiting peerage members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Himejima Akeno squinted, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, \"President, wanting to understand a man deeply is a sign of falling for him, you know~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're overthinking it, Akeno.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rias shook her head with a smile, \"Lin En is Sona's fiancé, how could I possibly have ideas about him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Himejima Akeno said in surprise, \"Oh?
