Chapter 194: Gift For Serafall

Tokyo.

Serafall arrives for backup.

But…

"Late again, huh?"

Serafall sighed, feeling helpless.

It was the same back in Kuoh Town, and now it's happening again here in Tokyo!

Shirona Kuraki smiled awkwardly. "Sorry, we didn't expect this either."

What they thought would be a catastrophic event had been effortlessly resolved by a mysterious powerhouse who suddenly appeared.

Even now, Shirona still found it hard to believe.

"This has nothing to do with you."

Serafall waved her hand casually. "After all, it's that Lynn Valefor…"

Thinking of this, Serafall clicked her tongue in frustration.

She and Sirzechs had long suspected that the Old Maou Faction would target Lynn.

But…

The result was the same as what happened to Kokabiel!

The key point was that this time, the enemy wasn't someone Kokabiel could handle!

Not only were there two Satan-Class devils among them, but one of them was even a Leviathan-bloodline Maou!

Even if she had faced these two personally, it wouldn't have been easy to overcome this crisis.

Tch.

Sirzechs even asked her to come and assist Lynn.

But honestly, she couldn't figure him out at all.

Serafall was growing more and more suspicious about the Lynn from five hundred years ago.

Otherwise, how could there be so many coincidences?

The problem was, during their last encounter, she hadn't felt that same overwhelming pressure from Lynn that she remembered from five centuries ago.

That was why she had been hesitant.

But now… her suspicions were getting stronger.

Still…

He really went straight into the Old Maou Faction's lair?

When she heard the news, Serafall was genuinely surprised.

This guy was not only skilled but also ridiculously bold.

But…

If he truly is that Lynn Valefor from back then, then maybe there's nothing to worry about after all.

Serafall stroked her chin thoughtfully before finally sighing. "Well… let's go have a look."

They had some guesses about the locations connected to the Old Maou Faction. If they investigated one by one, they might uncover some clues.

Besides…

If Lynn was involved, there was bound to be some commotion.

With that thought, Serafall ignored the other members of the Lion King Organization and used teleportation magic to return to the Underworld.

Meanwhile.

After Serafall left, Shirona Kuraki fell into deep thought.

She kept thinking about the name Serafall had just mentioned.

Lynn Valefor…

So…

Was this the person who had saved Tokyo this time?

Lynn…

Shirona quietly repeated the name to herself, then suddenly froze.

Lynn Group!!

Her eyes widened sharply.

Lynn and the Lynn Group!

There was no way that was just a coincidence. Even if someone beat her to death, she wouldn't believe it!

Damn it!

Shirona suddenly began to panic.

Kirasaka Sayaka was still undercover inside the Lynn Group!

If Lynn misunderstood their intentions, the Lion King Organization would be in serious trouble!

Immediately, Shirona called out to .

A moment later.

Yukari, who had transformed into a black cat, gave her an annoyed look. "You really treat me like a convenient tool, huh?"

Shirona ignored the complaint and quickly explained the situation regarding Lynn and the Lynn Group.

After listening, Yukari's expression turned serious. She fully understood the gravity of the situation.

Her precious disciple was still in the middle of a covert mission.

Realizing this, Yukari could no longer sit still.

There was no time to report through formal channels. She hurriedly called Kirasaka Sayaka directly.

"Kirasaka, your mission is over!"

"Return immediately!!"

"…Return?"

Suddenly, an unfamiliar, mature female voice came from the other end of the line. It was clearly not Kirasaka Sayaka's voice.

Hearing this, both Shirona and Yukari froze, their hearts tightening.

"She can't come back."

The voice was followed by faint sobbing.

"Uu…"

"Uuuu…"

"Uuuuuuuu—"

Beep, beep, beep—

The call disconnected.

Shirona: "?"

Yukari: "?"

What exactly was happening on the other end of the line?!

Yukari's heart trembled as disturbing thoughts crossed her mind, reminding her of certain "secret investigator" stories.

"Kirasaka… I'm so sorry for you…"

Just imagining the tragic fate that might befall Kirasaka Sayaka, Yukari's eyes began to tear up.

Why did someone like Kirasaka, who was terrified of men, have to suffer something like this?

Shirona remained silent for a while before reaching out and patting Yukari on the shoulder, speaking with regret.

"My condolences…"

She could only pray that Kirasaka wouldn't expose the Lion King Organization.

But…

Could that really be avoided?

Shirona's expression turned grim.

She knew they had to find a way to eliminate this potential threat.

A look of determination flashed across Shirona's eyes.

…

In the Underworld.

At the stronghold of the Old Maou Faction.

Serafall quietly approached the area where the commotion had been reported.

But…

The place was already eerily desolate.

Serafall: "?"

"So quiet?"

Could it be…

The Old Maou Faction has already been wiped out?

Suddenly.

A faint but peculiar sound reached her ears.

Serafall's expression hardened as she focused and pricked up her ears to listen.

Pah, pah, pah!!

Serafall: "?"

"There's still… fighting?"

She immediately flew toward the source of the sound.

Meanwhile.

Inside the chamber where Ingvild Leviathan slept.

Lynn raised an eyebrow, sensing something.

Is there a curious little cat sneaking around outside?

He thought about it briefly, but then decided to let it go.

Consider it a free show. A little gift for the intruder.

Outside.

Serafall crept closer cautiously, her expression serious.

But the closer she got, the stranger her expression became.

Why…

Why did it sound like more than just the sound of combat?

There were… very clear, high-pitched noises mixed in.

Serafall peeked around the corner quietly.

In the next instant, she froze in place.

Smack, smack, smack!!

Gulp.

Serafall swallowed hard, her mind going blank.

If she remembered correctly…

Wasn't the one inside that ice coffin supposed to be the Leviathan of the Old Maou Faction?

Why… why was this happening?!

Serafall squeezed her thighs together, her head spinning.

Her breathing became shaky. She continued eavesdropping for a moment before finally clenching her legs tightly and fleeing in a flustered panic.

The next day.

Ingvild Leviathan stared at the pale white marks left on Katerea Leviathan's brown skin, her face still flushed bright red.

She pressed her thighs together, fidgeting slightly. She could clearly feel the stickiness between them.

"Haa… mm…"

Ingvild couldn't help but let out a soft moan, her heart racing uncontrollably.

Ever since waking up, she had been hit by one shocking event after another.

First, she'd gained a master.

Then came the Blessing system and everything else that followed.

And finally…

Ingvild bit her lip, her emotions in turmoil.

It felt like her once-pure soul had been thoroughly stained.

Smack!

Suddenly, the sound of a crisp slap echoed through the air.

Ingvild immediately shrank back like a startled kitten, the events of the previous day flashing through her mind.

Lynn gave Katerea Leviathan's backside a firm slap, causing a stream of water to flow out instantly.

"Hmph~"

Katerea let out a soft snort, then slowly opened her hazy eyes and looked at Lynn, dazed.

"Don't just lie there. Time to get up."

…

Back in Tokyo.

Lynn once again stepped through the gates of Shuchiin Academy.

After resting for the night, the academy looked as if it had never been attacked. Everything appeared peaceful.

But the frequent glances cast toward Lynn revealed an unusual tension in the air.

Emotions like fear, dread, awe, worship, admiration, and even love were all mixed together.

Lynn remained calm, ignoring these gazes as he walked straight toward Natsuki Minamiya's office.

When she saw him, Natsuki gave him an annoyed glare.

"So you finally remembered to come back?"

There had been no word from him all night. She had been seriously worried that something might have gone wrong.

After all, that was the lair of the Old Maou Faction!

Natsuki had spent the entire night in anxious worry.

Her phone was nearly broken from how many times she tried to reach him.

She had even considered heading there herself to check on him.

But she realized she didn't even know the exact location of the Old Maou Faction's base.

Lynn simply shrugged without saying anything.

He couldn't exactly tell Natsuki that he had spent the entire night entangled with Katerea, could he?

Natsuki rolled her eyes at him but eventually sighed.

"I really didn't expect you to have grown this powerful."

She had been genuinely shocked watching him in action yesterday.

Especially when he suppressed two Satan-Class devils so effortlessly.

It was almost unbelievable.

All of that had unfolded right before her eyes, and she still couldn't comprehend how he had done it.

And…

"Did you really wipe out the Old Maou Faction completely?"

Natsuki still found it hard to believe, but when she saw Lynn standing there unharmed, she knew the answer.

Lynn gave a faint smile, not bothering to respond.

The fact that he was here, safe and sound, was all the answer she needed.
