As for Kyoko knowing magic?
Don't forget, the Annihilation Eye can devour magic; the more magic it devours, the stronger it becomes.
But what people often fear is not Kyoko, but the Night King behind Kyoko.
The Night King is the final boss of the first season of *Is This a Zombie?*. Formerly Yu's companion, he was turned into a zombie by Yu after his death and can create fake Megalo. He can control black mist, works at a pet shop, and loves penguins. After becoming a zombie, he can easily do many things, finds life meaningless, and begins to crave death. Because only Yu can kill zombies, he wants her to destroy him, but Yu can't bring herself to do it. This leads to a war that causes heavy casualties. Although Yu is furious, she still can't bring herself to eliminate him. He is ultimately defeated by Ayumu Aikawa, and Yu makes him disappear.
In short, he's a boss character who's bored with his immortality and keeps seeking death.
After waiting a while, Warwick seemed to have noticed something and twitched his nose.
"My lord, others have arrived. Several of them."
"Several? Let's go take a look."
Chang Yan quietly walked to the window and peered outside.
"It's these people. Warwick, Jack, lift the alert. They're here to handle this; we don't need to worry about them."
It is said that what is seen is not someone else, but Rias Gremory and her retinue.
Rias Gremory is the younger sister of Demon Lord Lucifer. She is the successor head of the Gremory family, a high-ranking demon clan, and the head of the Mysticism Research Club at Kuoh Academy. Commissioned by the upper echelons of the demon world, she takes over the territory of Kuoh Town in Japan, where she and her retinue manage demonic businesses such as signing contracts with humans for payment and exterminating rogue demons.
And his best friend, Hyoudou Issei, was among them.
Clearly, they're here to take down the guys in the house across the street.
"Hey, Ichijo, you should be able to smell it, right? This strong stench of blood."
"Yes, I can smell it, Minister. Speaking of which, my friend seems to live nearby. I hope he's alright."
(At least you still have some conscience; it seems my treasured collection wasn't shown to you for nothing.)
It is said that his enhanced body could obviously hear the conversation of the demons, and he was quite satisfied with Issei's reaction.
"A friend? Does he live in this house?"
"No, it seems to be on the other side."
"Is that so? Then don't worry. I brought you out this time to show you the responsibilities of a member of the Gremory family: to eliminate these villains who are disrupting order."
"Disorderly thugs? Shouldn't they be handed over to the police?"
"That's just ordinary people's business. But this time, we're not facing murderers, but ghouls that feed on humans. Originally, I wanted to take you to see how to defeat a lost demon. But it was just luck. The owner of this house is one of my regular clients, but today the summoning suddenly stopped, and I sensed blood during the summoning process. So I brought you here instead. After all, this is the territory I, Rias Gremory, manage."
"So, be prepared, Issei. Kiba, Neko, open the door! Issei, stay close to me."
"Yes." X2
A blond handsome man and a white-haired loli barged through the door. Rias and Akeno followed suit, with Hyoudou Issei close behind.
Then he saw a scene that only appears in horror movies.
That was a body
Gnawed down to the bones
Human corpse.
I've finally reached 10,000 words! By the way, I'd like to thank Weiss Lee for the donation.
Chapter Seven Tonight, You Are My Late-Night Snack
(I apologize in advance; I forgot that Mr. Hachiman was in a car accident on his first day of school. I'm so sorry.)
The pale bones were covered with bite marks.
Most of the flesh on his body had disappeared.
On the mangled skull, the eye sockets revealed an utterly empty darkness.
He felt as if he were suffocating, enveloped in an incredibly pungent smell of blood.
This is a scene that only appears in nightmares.
This is a scene that only appears in hell.
And this scene is taking place right here in this room.
"This...this is..."
Hyoudou Issei could feel his stomach churning.
She covered her mouth, staggered to the side, and then...
It seems like I stepped on something and slipped.
"Wh...what...ugh."
Internal organs
Human internal organs.
"Haa, haa, haa, vomit."
Ignoring everything else, Hyoudou Issei vomited.
But I just dry heaved.
At least he was a demon.
His demonic instincts prevented him from vomiting; it was merely a psychological effect on Issei Hyoudou.
"Minister, Minister. What, what exactly is going on?"
Hyoudou Issei glanced at the reactions of the others. Although their expressions weren't good, it seemed that his reaction was the worst.
Although he didn't want to lose face in front of the minister he admired, the scene was just too much of a shock to him.
"See that, Issei? This is the horrific sight caused by the ghouls. Can't you stand it?"
"No, I can still do it. But I need to get used to it a bit more, Minister."
"Good boy."
Seemingly satisfied with Hyoudou Issei's answer, Rias gave a slight smile and then raised her hand.
"Get out here!"
With a sharp shout, a bright red magic circle appeared in her hand, shattering the second-floor floor, and a dark figure fell from above.
"Damn exorcists, you're everywhere."
"Exorcists? Excuse me, we are—"
"You devil!"
"What?! Why is a demon here?"
"I originally intended to take my cute junior out to broaden his horizons, but I never expected to run into a disgusting guy like you, Akeno. Use your lightning to purify him."
Himejima Akeno, who usually has a smile on her face, also showed a serious expression. Yellow lightning rolled continuously from her hand and struck the figure.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!"
Upon hearing the screams, Himejima Akeno wore a puzzled expression.
"Oh my god, how could someone survive such a powerful lightning strike? What a tenacious life!"
"No, his kagune just happens to be a kaku. Akeno, do it again."
"Hi, Minister."
As the figure whose voice gradually faded away after being struck by lightning, Hyoudou Issei remained silent.
(Is this the power of my seniors? Wow, they're amazing. Looks like I still have a lot more to work out. Go for the captain's oppai!)
"Issei, get out of the way! There are two ghouls here!"
He heard the minister's voice, and when Hyoudou Issei looked up, a dark shadow crashed into him.
Thanks to his enhanced abilities after being reincarnated as a demon, Hyoudou Issei reacted quickly, dodging the attack from another ghoul. He immediately regretted it.
Because that ghoul was charging towards the house across the street. And there lived his best friend.
"Hahaha, I heard everything, you demons! The person living in this house is that brat's friend. Catch him and see if you still dare to kill me. Ahahaha."
A maniacal laugh erupted from the ghoul's mouth, and soon he reached the doorway. Just as he was about to barge in,
The door was opened.
One hand grabbed him as he moved at high speed and pulled him inside.
The door closed again.
As the door closed, he thought he heard a young man's voice.
"Why did you have to provoke me? Fine, you're the one for tonight's midnight snack."
Hyoudou Issei stared nervously at the door of the Tsuneo family's house, because screams were coming from inside. And the source of those screams was the ghoul who had been laughing so loudly just moments before.
"What do you want? You mere human, let me go!"
"Aaaaaah! What did you do?!"
"Spare me, spare me, I beg you—"
The screams ceased, and there was no further sound from the house.
"Hey Minister, what exactly happened here?"
Beside Hyoudou Issei was Rias, whose face was solemn.
"Zhu Nai, can you tell if that scream is real or fake?"
"Based on my years of experience teaching (abusing) bad kids, this scream should be real."
"Is that so? If we rule out the possibility that it's acting, then that can only mean one thing."
"Yicheng, your friend seems to be more than just a simple person."
"You guys are the ones who are not simple, right, Rias-senpai? And Issei, I never thought you were a demon too. You really can't judge a book by its cover."
Unbeknownst to them, Chang Yan appeared at the door at that moment, dressed in casual home clothes, smiling at everyone.
Thank you for the generous donation.
Chapter Eight: Seeing the President's Stye
Are you... Chang Yan?
Hyoudou Issei looked at his friend standing there with a beaming smile and asked incredulously.
"Yicheng, you didn't really get a sty from staring at breasts, did you? You don't even recognize me anymore? This really breaks my heart."
"Hey, hey, hey, will looking at breasts cause styes? Is it that scary? How can such a cruel thing happen in this world?"
"As expected of an idiot." Shirae Toujou's face was full of disdain.
Seeing her junior's pathetic performance, Rias sighed helplessly.
I initially thought Issei was just a womanizer, but it seems he's also a bit naive, despite his immense potential. "Issei, haven't you realized he's just teasing you?"
"Hey, really? Changyan, how could you deceive your friend like this? Don't you have any conscience?"
Upon hearing Hyoudou Issei's condemnation, Chang Yan narrowed his eyes and said in a subtle tone:
"I remember someone asked me for some compilations a few days ago. Since that person said I'm heartless, then I'll be heartless this once and delete that compilation. It's such a waste that I spent several days working on compiling it."
"My lord, I was wrong. Please forgive my heartlessness."
The shameless Hyoudou Issei immediately backed down.
"Alright, Issei, that's enough of the greetings. Now, Mr. Tsuneo, could you please explain what happened to that ghoul that just stormed into your house?"
