Chapter 1060 Unexpected trouble

Naturally, there was nothing much to say next. After Duanmuhuai woke up from his sleep, Rias's family had successfully won their first victory in the ranking match.

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 I could keep winning like this.

But as for who to summon next... Duanmu Huai really couldn't make up his mind, so he went to Mary to discuss it. After all, Mary has been with 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 inquiry, 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..."

"Huh? Why?"

"Uh...nothing."

After coughing slightly, Mary quickly changed the topic.

"The only chess pieces currently used by Mr. Duanmu are my 'Queen' and Miss Lumière's 'Castle', right?"

"That's right."

Duanmuhuai 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 is friends with her. It's not too deep, so I don't plan to invite her to join the Inquisition yet.

And Fulilian really didn’t seem to have this intention.

"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, we should first strengthen the strength of the Tribunal."

Originally, Duanmu Huai's plan was to strengthen the first candidate, including Aikote, 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 is completely a 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 was also hesitant about this. Naruse Mio's gravity and space attributes were very suitable for him, but the problem lay in her mentality and to what extent Fulilian could ultimately teach her. 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 the 'Knight' 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.

Currently, the [Queen] of Duanmu Huai is Mary, one of the [Castles] is given to Lumiere, and the remaining one is reserved for Aikote. Both of these are paper defenses, and Mary has no objection to them.

As for the [Bishop], the current candidate is Naruse Mio. Although Duanmu Huai didn't say anything about the other candidate, Mary felt that it was most likely for An.

After all, when it comes to magic, Enke is the first magic advisor of the Inquisition.

Then the next vacancies are [Knight] and [Soldier].

Not to mention the [Soldiers] who are less strengthened and the [Knights] who focus on speed...

"Miss Suzuna and Miss Shinjirei, right? I remember that they are both good at speed, and Miss Shinjirei is also a horse girl... she seems to be very good at running."

Mary didn't know Suzume very well, because the elusive and clever Kunoichi was quite familiar to her. 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...

"It's decided, let's summon the bell girl first."

Duanmu Huai made a decision decisively. With the current forces in this world, he could not yet see the need for Zhen Ji Ling 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 her luck, and she doesn’t expect her to go to the battlefield, right?

I have decided to write an invitation letter to Suzu Girl when I get back. Of course, I have to consider asking her to bring something over...

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, a blond nun was standing there uneasily holding a broom, and in front of her was a handsome green-haired man, who was talking passionately to the blond nun.

"Isn't that Asia? What happened to her? Someone confessed to her so early in the morning?"

Seeing this scene, Duanmuhuai couldn't help but start joking. 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 her faith and refused Rias's persuasion... Well, is she devout in her 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 will pick up a chainsword and bolter to hit demons or greenskins when they see them, instead of treating them with kindness.

In addition, Duanmu Huai really doesn't have a good impression of the fallen angel camp, so 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 really unlucky for me 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 introducing Duanmu Huai, and then looked at the handsome green-haired boy 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 hell are you taking off your clothes in front of others so early in the morning? Crazy?

Just when Duanmu Huai was considering whether to beat him away directly, a scar appeared on the handsome green-haired boy's chest. Seeing this scar, Asia seemed to have thought of something, and her expression changed slightly.

"That injury...could it be that you...?"

"Yes, although I didn't let you see my appearance 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 I 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 others immediately felt no longer sleepy.
