Chapter VIII Negotiations

The three things that Naraku hated the most in his life were disturbing people sleeping, disturbing people fighting, and disturbing people eating.

Although Naraku looks like a young and beautiful teenager in his teens on the surface, his real age is actually more than three digits, infinitely close to four digits due to the age of the third life and the time spent in the world with different time flow rates.

No, even if you don't count the time he spent as a god killer as a god killer, he has been alive as a saiyan for more than five hundred years, although most of the time has been spent in his sleep.

Therefore, for Naraku, sleeping is a great way to pass the time.

However, no matter what, it is impossible for Naraku to turn a blind eye to the current Issei.

"Nai...... Naraku, I don't know what I'm going to do anymore! Maybe it's anger, or maybe it's pain, the emotions in Yicheng's tone fluctuate a lot, and he holds the door of the entrance with one hand, but he doesn't have the usual anger at all.

"Don't be too busy talking!" Frowning, Naraku interrupted Issei's speech and helped Issei in, dragging his body like a marionette, the mud on the soles of his feet drawing black curves in the living room.

The thighs and abdomen were pierced, and there was no blood, but a few wisps of black smoke.

There were multiple abrasions on his limbs, a few sticks of grass stuck to his elbows and knees, blood stains on his forehead, a slight puffiness at the corners of his lips, and even more messy hair that had been fluffy, as if he had fallen on the concrete floor and rolled for three and a half weeks.

Ordinary people don't make this kind of joke with themselves, Yicheng leaning on the sofa is weak, his eyes are blank, and he still mutters something to himself.

It seems that dragging this body to his own house is already the limit of Yicheng.

"You've been caught by a ghost?" Naraku mocked, "It's been a bad thing lately! ”

Throwing a wet towel at the half-lying Issei, Naraku sat across from Issei in his pajamas, turning the teacup full of water on the table as he spoke.

"......" Yicheng's mouth opened slightly, wanting to say something, but finally closed it.

It's about fallen angels and demons, Naraku is a mortal, and the gap in strength is too big, right...... It's like Yumaβ€”or more so "Linali", compared to herself.

Seeing that Issei was hesitating, Naraku sighed lightly and said, "Is it the 'demon' thing?" ”

"You...... You ......" Issei jumped up and pointed at Naraku in surprise.

"Isn't that weird?" Naraku said calmly.

"Naraku, you know there's a 'demon'?" Issei asked tentatively.

"Nonsense."

"How do you know?"

"And how do you know?" Naraku threw back the question.

Yicheng's face was full of bitterness: "This matter is a long story. ”

Naraku smiled faintly and said, "Even if you don't say it, I can guess one or two, it's because of 'Amano's Yuma', right?" ”

Issei was dumbfounded and didn't respond for a long time.

After taking a sip of tea, Naraku continued: "Abnormal things are always a precursor, this woman took the initiative to attack you, if it wasn't for the long-term desire, it was an ulterior motive, your situation ...... Only the latter could ......"

"It's so hurtful! Bastard! ”

"Aren't you used to getting hurt?" Naraku has no heart and no lungs.

"That won't be able to draw the conclusion of 'demon'!" Issei also learned to change the subject.

"Actually, when you were dating Yuma Amano, Lias Gimmonri came to see me."

"Ministries, ministers?" It's unexpected," the minister told you. ”

Issei is anxious, worried about whether Naraku will accidentally become a family member of the demon.

"Not really, she only asked me if I was one of the three major forces." Naraku scoffed.

"Huh?"

"Demons, fallen angels, churches...... Of the three, you are naturally not a member of the church, you have no pure faith, and you are a person with a full head, even if you join, it is estimated that you will soon be expelled as a heretic. Naraku chuckled.

"Nonsense!!" Issei yelled, "Boobs are everything!" Chest is justice! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I don't want to go into that anymore. ”

"Then I still have the possibility of falling into the angel, Naraku, you ......"

"Of course, I didn't say 'you're a demon' at all!" Naraku shrugged.

"That ...... just now"

"I just said, 'Is it because of the devil,' but not 'You're a demon, right?'" Naraku looked cunning.

"You're lying to me!" Issei was furious.

Naraku shook his head and said slowly, "Well...... Don't get excited, speaking of which, I've also seen 'demons', so there's no need to make such a fuss. ”

"Demons!?"

"You'll think I'm also the host of 'SacredGear.'" Naraku gave a passable reason.

"Alas...... I knew Naraku, you're not that simple......" After a while, Issei took a long breath and sat down again.

When he learned from Lias that Amano Yuma was a fallen angel, Issei was already a little suspicious, it stands to reason that the fallen angel wants to hide his whereabouts, so as not to leave some clues, and it is impossible to let people go just because of the reason of "not having deep contact", Naraku can remember that there must be his own factors in it.

Naraku, who is usually inconspicuous, only Issei knows how terrible his brother is.

Such a person has the power to transcend common sense, and it is normal for Issei to think that it is also normal.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It seems that after a long time with me, your brain has finally developed a little. "Naraku didn't leave anyone behind.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Can you not put everything in your face? ”

The two sang and harmonized, and the originally tense atmosphere was relaxed.

"So, you want to save the nun?" Naraku summarized Issei's situation.

"Aisha is my friend, she has been taken away and I can't abandon her!" Ichisei replied very simply.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What about your boss's opinion? Naraku didn't rush to make a statement.

"Minister, she opposes this action......" Issei appeared to be in a very low mood.

is also the owner of the artifact, but Issei doesn't think that Naraku will do anything to him, and the three-year "bad fate" is not a joke.

Although Naraku has always pointed out the naivety of Issei's idea.

This is perhaps the main reason why Naraku and Issei get along well.

But trust is one thing, and having no city is another.

The two tacitly agreed to take a step each, and Issei didn't ask about the origin of Naraku's artifact, and Naraku didn't delve into what happened to Issei after he became a demon.

What I have learned so far is that Issei was rescued by Lias, reincarnated as a demon, and helped Lias in her work.

Many times, the outcome is often more important than the process, and both Naraku and Issei are left with enough gaps.

Naraku's fingers tapped lightly on the table: "Rashly attacking one side of the force is tantamount to directly declaring war, and the other party will be caught by the handle at the very least, your minister's consideration is very reasonable." ”

In just one sentence, Naraku analyzed Lias's position and the relationship between the three camps.

"Behind peace is inevitably an undercurrent, but it is similar to the human world." Naraku shrugged.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"So you came running? Dragging this wound? ”

Lias's can be said to be caused by Issei's impatience, but according to Issei's words, the nun has the power to heal even fallen angels and demons, from the impression of the first meeting and Issei's relay, she is by no means a person who will ignore Issei's injuries and ignore the lives of others, from another point of view, it shows the urgency of the situation at that time.

"I'm so sorry!" Issei thinks that Naraku is holding him accountable for soiling his own home.

Naraku didn't correct Yisei's misunderstanding, but smiled helplessly: "Come on, who told me to know you......"

"So what do we do? You've always been the most thoughtful of us. "Issei relies quite heavily on Naraku's judgment, and for a long time, Naraku has been the backbone of his sworn friends.

If there is really no way, it is better to break into the enemy base with Naraku to rescue Aisha. Yicheng thought so in his heart.

"Do you know where they're based?" Naraku saw through Ichisei's thoughts.

"It should be in the church." Issei spoke solemnly.

"How strong are you?" Naro is planning something.

"No! Except for this hand. "Issei posed and stretched out his left hand, driven by his mind, and showed Naraku the artifact he was holding," said Linari - ah, it's Yuma, it's an extremely common artifact 'twicecritical', the effect is to double the wielder's power for a certain period of time, but I ......"

The more Issei explained, the lower his voice became, and finally he lowered his head in frustration.

It's impossible to save Aisha like this!

The reality is cruel, zero is still zero even if it multiplies.

Do you have to rely on Naraku? I just don't know what Naraku's artifact is......

"By the way, Naraku, what is your artifact?" Issei finally thought about it.

"Although my artifact is very rare, it has no attack power, and the consumption is not small, it is an artifact that can travel through space, I myself call it 'another dimensional space', but in fact it is just the name of the move when I use this artifact." In line with the words, Naraku stretched out his hand and swiped it out of thin air, and then, a crack appeared in the space.

"W-This?"

The anomaly of the space can be clearly felt, and the distorted space can be seen just by looking at the crack that Naraku opened.

Naraku smiled slightly, waved his hand to restore the space, and continued: "My ability is simply two words - teleportation, although it can only be used for rushing or transporting things, and it depends on whether the holder has been to the destination, if there is no coordinates of the target location, then at most it can only be teleported to my line of sight or perception range." ”

"That Aisha ......"

"It's said that it's not okay if you don't have coordinates, not to mention combat effectiveness on the spot, I can only protect myself, of course, when it comes to escaping, I'm still quite confident."

"And how do you know what you're capable of?" Issei keenly grasped the contradictions in Naraku's words.

"Isn't my ability obvious, I can get familiar with it with it casually, although the consumption is very large, but because I have exercised myself in the trip, the magic power is not bad, I can afford it, plus I think my control ability is also good."

"......" is speechless, the real speechless, compared to the fact that he survived because of Minister Lias's rescue, Naraku has mastered the use of the artifact so easily, although it is difficult to investigate, but Yicheng believes Naraku's statement.

"I feel like I want to say that......" Issei looked at his left hand, clenching his teeth.

"Not necessarily." Naraku took another sip of tea, and the corner of his eye looked out the window, "There is still hope." ”

Naraku's words were like a beacon in the darkness, guiding the way of the lost, and Issei looked at Naraku.

"Lias Gimonri must have said something like this to you: 'Each of the demonic dependents reincarnated with the demon's chess piece has the characteristics of the corresponding chess piece'?"

"Yes, yes."

"What is it that reincarnated you?" Naraku swept over Issei's left hand armor.

"Minister Lias said, that's eight soldiers." Issei smiled awkwardly.

After all, when ordinary people hear that their rank is so low, they will inevitably feel sorry for themselves and sigh that the future is unfortunate, and Yicheng is no exception.

"Do you think 'Pawn' is the lowest?" Naraku gave Issei a chestnut fiercely, "You forgot what I used to kill you when I played chess with you?" Forgot the rules I told you? ”

"Rules?"

"What are the characteristics of a soldier?"

"Upgrade!" Yicheng suddenly woke up.

"That's right, when the 'soldier' reaches the deepest part of the opponent's position, he can be upgraded to any pawn other than the 'king'. In other words, it has the characteristics of any piece except 'King'. ”

"Great! …… However, the concept of 'deepest' is very vague! After rejoicing, Yicheng discovered the essence of the problem.
