"To celebrate our first ranked game win, cheers!"

"Cheers!"

In the living room of Zhou Xiaoning's villa, everyone raised a glass together to celebrate this hard-won victory.

After everyone had a drink, Lias walked to Zhou Xiaoning's side and said sincerely: "Xiaoning, thanks to you this time, thank you." ”

"Actually, it's nothing, I just can't get used to the arrogance of that firebird. What's more......" Zhou Xiaoning suddenly put it into Lias's ear and said softly: "Didn't you give yourself to me, although we didn't take the last step because of Greafi's appearance, but you are already my person, and all I do is protect my own woman." ”

Lias didn't expect Zhou Xiaoning to say it so bluntly and explicitly, and her cheeks couldn't help but turn red. Now calm down, thinking back to what she did that night, Lias herself feels so bold, if Grea Fee didn't show up at that time, then wouldn't she and Zhou Xiaoning really ...... Well, I'm a little shy, but I'm unexpectedly not annoying.

Lias was immersed in her fantasies, not noticing a playful smile on the side of Himeshima. You must know that this is the first time that Ji Dao Juni has seen Lias show such a shy expression, it seems that Lias's feelings for Zhou Xiaoning are not ordinary, this is interesting.

"Minister, Xiao Ning, I want to listen to what you are saying!"

Aisha also saw this scene in her eyes, and suddenly felt a burst of unhappiness in her heart, and her mind came up as soon as she was hot.

"Ahaha, didn't say anything, didn't say anything. Well, let's keep celebrating! ”

Lias forcibly pushed Aisha away from Zhou Xiaoning, otherwise wouldn't it be too embarrassing to let Zhou Xiaoning say what she just said?

Seeing Lias's performance, Zhou Xiaoning couldn't help but smile, but she didn't expect Lias to have such a little girl's side when she faced her feelings. As for the various benefits that Lias gave to Hyodo Issei in the original plot, it is probably because Hyodo Issei has belonged to her from the beginning, and no one can take it away. But Zhou Xiaoning is different, his excellence makes Lias have a sense of crisis, even for Aisha, he subconsciously rises on guard.

Although none of the people present were ordinary people, the celebration was no different from ordinary people, all eating, drinking, and playing until two or three o'clock in the morning.

You must know that Lias and they are all demons, and they will have more energy at night than during the day, but even so, they are so tired that they fall asleep, which shows how crazy they are playing. Fortunately, Zhou Xiaoning's villa is not much else, that is, there are enough empty rooms, in addition to Aisha, who originally had a room, Zhou Xiaoning also arranged a room on the second floor for Lias, Ji Dao Junai and Tacheng Kitten, so that they can have a good rest.

After that, Zhou Xiaoning returned to the living room again, ready to start cleaning up the mess.

But fortunately, with the help of Yuto Kiba, one of them is an ancestral dragon and the other is a demon, and with a few small spells, they can easily complete the cleaning work that ordinary people need to do for at least an hour or two. It's just that a small episode occurred in the process, and the photo album that was originally placed on the small bookshelf fell off and was picked up by Yuto Kiba.

Zhou Xiaoning had some impressions of that album, which recorded the memories of him growing up little by little after he lost his memory and strength and turned into a mortal. It's just that most of the photos on it are of himself, and there are only a few photos with other people. I can't remember who took those photos, maybe it's in this world, my parents who haven't seen each other for a long time, every time I look at Zhou Xiaoning, I have some inexplicable emotions in my heart, after all, the experience of living again is not something that anyone can experience.

"This, this is ......"

At the beginning, Yuto Kiba just looked at it casually, but he knew that when he saw a photo of Zhou Xiaoning and another child, his movements suddenly stopped, and the expression on his face changed suddenly, as if he was sad, as if he was guilty, but more hatred.

"Now, Xiao Ning, what's going on with this photo?"

"I'll look at ......"

Zhou Xiaoning leaned his head over, and when he saw the photo, it suddenly became clear in his heart that there was nothing wrong with this photo, but that the sword in the background in the photo evoked a bad memory of Yuto Kiba, and it was also his inner demon.

"That kid used to be my neighbor and used to play with them when they were kids. Later, her parents went abroad for work, so they cut off contact. I remember my name was Wisteria Irina, and I guess I was my childhood sweetheart. ”

"So, do you have any impression of this sword?"

Yuto Kiba cares more about the sword than who that kid is.

If he really awakens his memory and strength, Zhou Xiaoning really doesn't know how to answer Kiba Yuto's question. But now, although several years have passed, Zhou Xiaoning can still clearly recall the scene at that time. At that time, he was playing near the sword, and he always felt warm and comfortable, and he didn't feel tired after playing for a long time.

There is no doubt that the sword has some kind of mysterious power, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a holy sword, although it is not as powerful as a high-level holy sword like Excalibur, but it is definitely not bad.

And what's interesting is that as soon as Zhou Xiaoning touches that sword, it will emit a faint white light, and now I think it should be because he has the qualifications to become a holy sword envoy. It's just that he was sneaky at the time, and no one found out, otherwise he would have been brought into the church for cultivation, and what happened after would not have happened.

It's just that these things are really hard to talk to Kiba Yuto, otherwise with his hatred of the Holy Sword, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not lose his mind and do some crazy things.

Because of this, Zhou Xiaoning chose to hide it and did not tell Kiba Yuto the truth. However, all of this turned into a seed and was buried in Yuto Kiba's heart, and it is unknown what kind of fruit will grow at this moment.

In the next few days, Kiba Yuto returned to his previous appearance, and the photo seemed to have been left behind by him, but I don't know why, Zhou Xiaoning always felt that he was a little weird, and when he had nothing to do, he became fond of being alone and meditating, and he didn't know what he was thinking. And this situation is getting worse, which is really worrying.

The subsequent development did not surprise Zhou Xiaoning, and bad things still happened.

During an operation to exterminate the outlier demons, Yuto Kiba was in a trance and did not support Tacheng Kitten in time, causing her to suffer a slight injury. Although that kind of injury healed quickly under Aisha's treatment, the nature of this incident was really bad, this time it was Tacheng Kitten who was slightly injured, but if the next time he faced a more powerful enemy, Kiba Yuto was still like this, wouldn't the situation of the others be very dangerous?

After that action, Lias slapped Yuto Kiba in the face, trying to make him sober up, but Yuto Kiba was full of worries, how could he still listen to Lias's words. After that, Yuto Kiba left alone, and his back was indescribably lonely.

This made Lias very uncomfortable, and she habitually came to Zhou Xiaoning to complain. I don't know when it started, when she encountered difficulties, the first thing that Lias thought of was Zhou Xiaoning, as if as long as Zhou Xiaoning was there, there was no problem that could not be solved.

"Well, that's still the case."

Zhou Xiaoning sighed helplessly, then took out the album and flipped to the photo to show Lias.

"The reason why Yuto is like this is probably because of this."

"How could it be, it turned out to be a holy sword!"

Lias was surprised and lost her voice, so it made sense, but what she didn't expect was that after such a long time, Kiba Yuto hadn't put it down.

"Well, what is the Holy Sword?"

Aisha raised her right hand and asked weakly.

Don't look at Aisha used to be a saint of the church, but at that time, she had no freedom at all, like a puppet who was manipulated, who she saw and what she learned was only arranged by the church people, she just passively accepted. If she were asked to explain the deeds of the God of the Bible, she would be able to talk about it for most of the day, but she really didn't know anything about the Holy Sword.

"The holy sword is a weapon with strong restraint against demons, and the demon will damage its body just by touching it, and it may even be directly wiped out if it is slashed by it."

"Woo~, what a terrible weapon!"

Aisha was taken aback by Lias's description, after all, she was also a demon now.

Seeing Aisha's appearance like a frightened little rabbit, Zhou Xiaoning couldn't help but touch her head with amusement and said, "Don't worry, there are only a few who are qualified to be called the Holy Sword, and the Holy Sword is not something that anyone can control." Besides, you don't have to worry even if you encounter the Holy Sword, those defensive items on your body are enough to protect you from being hurt by the Holy Sword. ”

When Lias heard this, she couldn't help but look at Aisha with envy, the power of those defensive props is obvious to all in ranked games, even if her brother Sejack Lucifer is in person, it will take some effort to break it, if she also has a set of such defensive props, even in the face of the highest level of demons, she has the power to fight.

Zhou Xiaoning's eyesight is so keen, how can Lias's expression change be able to escape his eyes.

While laughing, Zhou Xiaoning moved his lips lightly and sent a message to Lias: "Don't worry, I have already prepared the defensive props for you, and I will give them to you later, don't be shy and dare not take it when the time comes." ”

Hearing Zhou Xiaoning's voice ringing in her head, Lias paused for a moment, but after hearing what Zhou Xiaoning said, the stunned look on her face was replaced by crimson. Part of it was because of Zhou Xiaoning's shyness to see through his mind, but more of it was the expectation of that defensive prop. The efficacy is secondary, the important thing is Zhou Xiaoning's intention.

But then again, it should be the first gift Zhou Xiaoning gave her, and I don't know what kind of thing Zhou Xiaoning will give her at that time.
