Chapter 92

Dis-, dissolve the engagement?

She suddenly remembered that this matter still existed.

Ah...

"No, it's not..."

Sona felt a bit awkward.

Lin En was silent for a moment, then asked, "Then what is this..."

Sona silently took out a pile of scrolls, spell formations, and weapons.

Then she dumped them all on the floor.

Lin En’s eyelid twitched.

Sona began to explain them one by one.

"This is a holy-attribute magic, Atonement Chain..."

"A light-attribute spell formation, Light Etching Seal..."

"A holy-attribute weapon, Nail of the Penitent..."

"A light-attribute weapon, Photon Collapse Hand Cannon..."

Lin En’s apartment.

Living room.

The air was filled with a silent atmosphere.

Lin En looked at the spell formations, weapons, and other items piled up on the floor, falling into silence.

Not until Sona finished taking everything out did Lin En speak: "This is..."

"Um... it’s compensation."

Sona deliberated for a moment, then said, "I heard from Rias that you’ve been needing holy and light-attribute items recently."

"Com...pensation?"

Lin En raised an eyebrow, thinking of their previous conversation.

If the engagement were dissolved, she would give him compensation.

But...

Lin En asked in confusion, "But haven't we not dissolved the engagement yet?"

Sona’s expression stiffened, and she stammered, "Soo, sooner or later..."

"Fine."

Lin En reluctantly accepted this explanation.

If she insisted on giving them, could Lin En refuse?

However...

Lin En looked at her with a subtle gaze, "Did you rob the Church for this?"

Mentioning this topic, Sona calmed down again.

She pushed up her glasses and said calmly, "Just some insignificant little bugs."

Little bugs?

Could little bugs have this much loot?

Lin En’s eyelid twitched.

However...

Let’s just assume that’s the case.

Lin En didn’t need to expose her.

After all, he was the one benefiting.

Hmm...

These holy and light-attribute things are just right for Zhenzhou to use.

Uh...

Is it not very good to give Zhenzhou the things Sona gave him?

But...

Even Zhenzhou is his; how can giving things to a subordinate be considered giving them to someone else?

"Cui, heat up a cup of tea for Miss Sona."

Having sent him so many things, Miss Sona deserves a cup of tea!

Sona pursed her lips.

Miss Sona...

Rias calls her by her name directly...

She felt a tightness in her chest.

And...

Sona stared silently at Koneko Toujou, who was still sitting in Lin En’s lap.

Seemingly sensing the cold gaze, Koneko Toujou’s body stiffened slightly, and then she met Sona’s gaze.

Koneko Toujou: "..."

She remembered that President Sona was supposed to have an engagement with Senior Lin En, right?

For her to be leaning in the senior’s arms so openly, would it be...

Not very good?

But...

Isn't she a pet?

Unable to stand Sona’s gaze, Koneko Toujou stood up silently, "Senior, I’ll head back first."

Without giving anyone a chance to ask her to stay, Koneko Toujou used teleportation magic and left Lin En’s apartment.

However...

The moment she stood up and left Lin En’s arms, she felt a bit dazed.

Feeling...

A bit empty.

After Koneko Toujou left.

Lin En’s apartment fell into silence again.

Sona sipped her tea, also feeling a bit awkward.

She had come on a whim.

But because of their friendly exchange during their first meeting, the relationship between her and Lin En was somewhat subtle.

She didn't know...

What to say...

She wanted to salvage the awkward relationship between the two.

But all she could think of was throwing money at it.

After hurriedly drinking a cup of tea, Sona left.

Lin En couldn't quite understand this woman.

Just to send him things?

Could this woman be trying to keep him as a kept man?

Just then.

A phone notification sounded.

Rias: What did you do to Koneko?

Kuoh Academy.

Occult Research Club.

Rias looked at Koneko, who had returned from Lin En’s place, appearing to be in an unusual state.

She sent a question mark to Lin En.

This state, she was clearly about to go into heat!!

Rias had a subtle expression; could this guy Lin En...

Lin En: ...Does touching her ears count?

Seeing Rias’s inquiry, Lin En understood what she wanted to ask.

Rias: ...

A flash of surprise crossed Rias’s eyes.

Just...

Just like that?

She had thought...

Rias felt slightly uncomfortable.

However...

Is Koneko that pure?

Just touched her ears, and she’s already like this?

However...

At least it didn't fully erupt; it’s in a controllable stage.

Rias rubbed her forehead with a headache.

In the future, maybe she should just forbid Koneko from meeting Lin En.

It hasn't been long, and she’s already showing her ears to him.

Will she show her tail next time?

"A girl grown up is hard to keep..."

Rias let out a sigh like an old mother.

Ding-dong!

Suddenly, a message notification.

Lin En: [Image].jpg, thank Miss Sona for the tip on my behalf.

Since Sona is so generous, shouldn't you, Miss Rias, also show some gesture?

Lin En hinted wildly.

Rias: ?

Rias had a complex expression.

In Lin En’s picture, it was all holy and light-attribute spell formations and weapons.

Without needing to think, Rias knew Sona had sent them over.

Hmm...

She had received news not long ago.

A Fallen Angel church in Kuoh Town had been annihilated.

Needless to say, it was Sona who did it!

A diplomatic incident! A diplomatic incident!!

Just to send Lin En holy and light-attribute spell weapons?

Sona...

You...

Have you fallen for him?

Setting that aside, this matter with Sona would definitely reach the Maou.

Fortunately, Sona was still very rational.

She only chose the weakest of the three factions, the Fallen Angels.

And...

That church really had major problems...

Overall, it didn't count as much of an issue.

But...

"Lady Serafall will definitely know about this..."

Rias felt helpless.

On the other side.

A corner of Kuoh Town.

A woman who had been monitoring Koneko Toujou with magic discovered her abnormality immediately.

"Shirone’s heat period has advanced??"

Underworld.

Leviathan’s office.

Sona’s actions were placed on Serafall’s desk immediately.

She stared at the intelligence in her hand and asked in confusion, "Destroyed a Fallen Angel stronghold in Kuoh Town?"

"Sona did it?"

She found it unbelievable.

It didn't feel like something Sona would do.

But after she finished reading all the intelligence, her eyes went blank.

Then she gripped the intelligence tightly and gritted her teeth, "My Sona actually went to such lengths for that man!"

"I’m not reconciled..."

Serafall’s eyes filled with tears, and then she said resolutely, "It must be that man!"

"It must be that man who threatened Sona using the reason of dissolving the engagement!"

"Woooo... Sona, you’ve suffered..."

Serafall had long known about Sona’s move to break off the engagement.

But this matter was not simple.

It concerned the entire Underworld.

She and the four Maou, including Sirzechs, were new Maou, and their foundations in the Underworld were still shallow.

If what was promised wasn't fulfilled, it would only make the Underworld more turbulent.

They could naturally suppress everything with their powerful strength, but then how would that be any different from the old Maou faction?

Therefore.

The engagement with the Vapula clan became a stimulant to stabilize the Underworld.

Except for her, the other three Maou valued it highly.

Serafall, also being a Maou, could understand.

But...

"As expected, I still can’t let Sona bear this pain!"

Serafall’s eyes held determination.

This engagement was originally hers to begin with.

For Sona’s happiness...

Her eyes were obscure, not knowing what she was thinking.

A few days later.

Black Bullet world.

Tokyo’s fall shocked the world.

They focused all their attention on Tokyo.

And were shocked once again.

Scorpio, dead?
