Chapter 1060: Unexpected trouble
There is naturally nothing to say next. After Duanmuhuai woke up from his sleep, Rias's family had successfully won their first victory in the ranking match.
And Duanmu Huai's summoning list also unlocked a spot again. During the whole process, Duanmu Huai did nothing. It can be said that he simply won.
It would be great if we could keep winning like this.
But as for who to summon next... Duanmuhuai really couldn't make up his mind, so he went to Mary to discuss it. After all, Mary has been following him for a relatively long time - or in other words, because of the characteristics of the golden eyes, Duanmu Huai has taken Mary with him wherever he goes, so Mary is also the most familiar with the people around him.
“Next?”
Hearing Duanmuhuai's question, Mary showed a somewhat embarrassed expression.
“Although it’s not nice to say this, but...shouldn’t we summon Miss An and Sister Ogis?”
"I plan to save them until the end. They have special strengthening methods and are not in a hurry."
Duanmu Huai shook his head. The soul card was not his main target for strengthening this time. Duanmu Huai's current goal was to make up for weaknesses rather than strengthen them.
"That's right, but I'm worried that they might get into trouble..."
“Hmm? Why?”
“Uh...nothing.”
With a slight cough, Mary quickly changed the topic.
"The only chess pieces Mr. Duanmu is currently using are my 'Queen' and Miss Lumière's 'Castle', right?"
“That’s right.”
Duanmu Huai nodded. His summon list was unlocked three times, using two chess pieces, and Fulilian was not among them. The reason is very simple. The main reason why Duanmuhuai summoned her here is to teach the human magic system. He plans to promote this system on a large scale as the special magic system of the Tribunal. As for Fulilian herself... Duanmuhuai has no friendship with her. It’s quite advanced, so I don’t plan to invite her to join the Tribunal yet.
And it seems that Fulian didn’t mean this.
“So, what are Mr. Duanmu’s current thoughts?”
“I plan to leave another ‘castle’ to Aikote.”
"Ah... Miss Aikote is indeed... not good at fighting, but why don't you summon her here now?"
“For now, it’s better to strengthen the strength of the Tribunal first.”
Originally, Duanmu Huai's plan was to strengthen the first candidate, including Acote, but with the emergence of a lot of troubles such as the God of Disobedience, Duanmu Huai changed his mind. After all, in addition to directing tactics, Ecote does not have a certain self-protection ability like Mary or Lumière. Summoning her here now will be a complete hindrance. Her strength can only be brought into full play when commanding an army. There are only a few people in the Tribunal, so it would be useless for her to come.
“Well, in that case, there are only two ‘bishops’, two ‘knights’, and eight ‘soldiers’..."
Mary also fell into deep thinking.
“Does Mr. Duanmu intend to leave the ‘bishop’ to Miss Mio?”
“It depends on the situation, if her strength meets my requirements.”
Duanmu Huai is also hesitant about this. Naruse Mio's gravity and space attributes are very suitable for him, but the problem lies in her mentality and how far Fulian can teach her in the end. If Naruse Mio can reach the qualification line that Duanmu Huai wants, then it is not impossible to give her one of the bishops.
“In this case, I suggest focusing on ‘knights’ first…”
Mary thought for a moment and then spoke. She has already heard Duanmu Huai explain the characteristics of the chess pieces. [Queen] is an overall improvement, [Castle] enhances offense and defense, [Knight] is speed, and [Bishop] enhances magic power.
At present, the [Queen] of Duanmuhuai is Mary, one of the [Castles] is given to Lumiel, and the remaining one is reserved for Aikote. Both of these are paper defenses, and Mary has no objection to them.
As for [Bishop], the current candidate is Mio Naruse. Although Duanmuhuai didn't say anything about the other one, Mary felt that it was most likely for An.
After all, when it comes to magic, An Ke is the first magic advisor of the Tribunal.
Then the next vacancies are [Knight] and [Soldier].
Let’s not mention the [Soldiers] who are less strengthened and the [Knights] who focus on speed...
“Ms. Suzume and Miss Shin Ji Ling, right? I remember that they are both good at speed, and Miss Shin Ji Ling is also a horse girl...she seems to be very good at running.”
Mary didn’t know much about Suzume, because she was quite familiar with the elusive Kunoichi. She had also watched Ma Ni’s flash series of competitions, and was deeply impressed by Ma Ni’s running speed.
"Um………"
After listening to Mary’s thoughts, Duanmu Huai also started thinking. Indeed, when it comes to speed, these two are the fastest in the Tribunal, but Duanmu Huai needs to think more about who to summon. Suzume is proficient in espionage and assassination, so combat effectiveness is not an issue. Zhen Ji Ling's combat effectiveness is poor, but her [Superior Charm] is the best in the world, so she can be regarded as the exclusive diplomat of the Tribunal.
Now...
“I’ve decided, let’s call the bell girl over first.”
Duanmu Huai made a decision decisively. With the current forces in this world, he could not yet see the need for a real wit to appear. Moreover, the real Jiling is Ma Niang, not a human. Her appearance is somewhat different from that of humans, and it is not easy to show off in this world. If there is any need for external negotiation in the future, it would be better to find Zhen Jiling.
By the way, Duanmu Huai, one of the [Soldier] chess pieces, has decided to leave it to Tutu. After all, Tutu’s [Lucky] BUFF is what he needs most. Although the enhancement of [Soldier] is not as powerful as [Queen], it is enough for Bunny. After all, her mission is to be a cheerleader for Duanmu Huai and increase his luck, and we don’t expect her to go to the battlefield, right?
I have decided that I will write an invitation letter to Suzuki when I get back. Of course, I also have to consider asking her to bring something...
When Duanmu Huai and others left the demon world and returned to the human world, it was already early the next morning. Fortunately, today was a holiday, so the group also yawned and prepared to go back to rest. But when they walked to the door of the church, they saw an unexpected scene.
At the door of the church, I saw a blond nun standing there uneasily holding a broom, and in front of her was a handsome green-haired guy, who was talking passionately to the blond nun.
“Isn’t that Asia? What’s wrong with her? Someone confessed to her so early in the morning?”
Seeing this scene, Duanmuhuai couldn't help but joke. Duanmuhuai was somewhat familiar with this nun from the fallen angel camp. From the outside, Asia is a simple and good girl, well-behaved and obedient, and very zealous in her faith. Every day she would get up early in the morning to clean the church, and she also showed great enthusiasm for the teachings of the Inquisition.
Rias had also persuaded her, hoping that Asia could be reincarnated into a demon and become her vassal. And her purpose is obviously for Asia's ability to heal demons - after all, there are not many demons with healing ability. If Asia can join Rias's camp, it will obviously be a powerful trump card.
After all, a priest is a must for the Iron Triangle.
However, Asia is devout in faith and refused Rias's persuasion... Well, is she devout in faith?
To be honest, Duanmu Huai doesn't think so. Although the reason for Asia being labeled a witch sounds a bit ridiculous, it is not incomprehensible from the perspective of the Tribunal. If a certain state priest dares to save the Chaos Demon, it goes without saying. The first time was to burn it to death.
From this point of view, the angelic church only expelled her but did not hang her, which is quite good.
This is also the reason why Asia is very capable, but Duanmu Huai never thought of recruiting her to join the Tribunal. This kind of person who can't figure out his identity is a virgin to say the least, but to be blunt, he is confused. Although according to the standards of the Tribunal, the demons in this world are not Chaos Demons, so Duanmuhuai just sits back and does nothing. But if she is brought to the Tribunal and the latter still treats people indiscriminately on sight, then she is definitely not suitable for the Tribunal.
It is not that the empire does not have full-time medical nuns, but even medical nuns can pick up a chainsword and bolter to hit demons or greenskins when they see them, instead of treating them with kindness.
Coupled with Duanmu Huai's lack of affection for the fallen angel camp, his relationship with Asia can only be said to be average...
But no matter what, it’s not okay to cause trouble in front of your own church.
"what's the situation?"
Duanmu Huai also yawned and walked up to ask. When seeing Duanmu Huai's appearance, Asia, who looked embarrassed, suddenly seemed to have seen a savior and hurriedly ran to Duanmu Huai's side.
"Master Duanmu, great, you are finally back..."
“Who is that man?”
Duanmuhuai glanced at the handsome green-haired guy and asked angrily.
It’s unlucky to see a handsome guy so early in the morning.
As a result, the other party didn't speak, but Rias recognized him.
“Theodora? Are you Theodora?”
"who?"
“Didn’t we meet at the banquet last night? Teacher Duanmu, he is one of the new generation of demons and the current successor of the family from which His Majesty Beelzebub came.”
Rias finished the introduction to Duanmu Huai, and then looked at the handsome green-haired guy in confusion.
“But what are you doing here?”
"Ah, hello, Rias. I watched yesterday's game. Your victory was perfect. You are worthy of being the successor master of Gremory."
Seeing Rias, the green-haired handsome guy also said hello, and then looked at Asia affectionately again - the latter trembled and hurriedly hid behind Duanmu Huai. It seemed that she was not used to such gaze.
"...Have you forgotten me? Asia, we met at that time."
As he said that, the handsome green-haired guy unbuttoned his shirt and exposed his chest...Why the **** are you taking off your clothes in front of others so early in the morning? Crazy?
Just when Duanmuhuai was considering whether to beat him away directly, he saw a scar appearing on the handsome green-haired guy's chest. Seeing this scar, Asia seemed to have thought of something, and her expression changed slightly.
"That injury...could it be that you...?"
“That’s right, although I didn’t let you see what I looked like at that time, I was the devil at that time.”
"oh………"
Hearing this, Duanmuhuai immediately understood that Asia was expelled from the church because she saved a demon with her own power. Now it seems that this green-haired handsome boy is the devil who was revived by Asia.
Then he saw the green-haired handsome guy walking up to the surprised Asia, half-kneeling on the ground, staring at her.
"Asia, I'm here to greet you. I think it's fate to meet you - so, I hope you can become my wife."
"…………Um?"
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai and the others immediately felt no longer sleepy.
