Chapter 37 - Ch.37

As a Transcender, he had no family to worry about in this world, so as long as his actions were in line with his principles, there were no taboos for him. And strength was the foundation of his existence.

Rias, Akeno, and Koneko all saw the determination and resolve in Luo Guang's eyes. But this only made him more important to them, and he gradually started to occupy a special place in their hearts.

"Of course I won't. If you ever need my help in the future, just let me know," Rias said, her playful smile gone, replaced by a serious expression.

Luo Guang didn't comment, but Rias's attitude and character were enough to make people feel a sense of goodwill toward her. He was no exception. But would he ever need Rias's help? Probably only for one thing: having a child.

Luo Guang then turned to the teary-eyed Asia behind him. "Since you have nowhere to go, would you like to be reincarnated as a devil and live as her familiar?" he asked, gesturing to Rias.

Hearing this, Asia shook her head repeatedly and grabbed Luo Guang's right hand, her face pleading. It made sense. Asia's life had been full of ups and downs; she was exiled after becoming a saintess and then deceived by a Fallen Angel. Although she didn't discriminate against devils, the image of them was already deeply ingrained in her mind. On top of that, she hadn't experienced a near-death situation, and the first person she saw after waking up was Luo Guang. She naturally saw him as her support and didn't want to leave.

"Alright. In that case, you can live at my place. Can you do some housework?"

At a time like this, even if she couldn't, she would say she could. In fact, Asia had lived a life of asceticism as a saintess and was taught to be independent from a young age. Besides not knowing how to make money, she could take care of herself since she was a child. Asia nodded desperately, her tears flying onto her clothes.

"Let's go."

With that, Luo Guang said goodbye to Rias and the others and prepared to leave. Before he went, he casually asked, "What are you going to do about Issei Hyoudou and the Fallen Angels?"

After thinking for a few seconds, Rias replied, "I will erase that student's memories. As for the Fallen Angels, I'll have to ask my brother, Lord Lucifer, first. This concerns the diplomacy of two major factions, so I must be careful."

"Bye." After he finished speaking, Luo Guang left without hesitation.

Night fell, the stars twinkled, and a gentle evening breeze blew, making the air feel intoxicating. Seeing the night sky, the huge rock weighing on Asia's heart finally moved away. But she then cautiously looked at Luo Guang.

"Get on." Luo Guang pointed to a motorcycle. Although he could fly, he still enjoyed the feeling of riding a motorcycle.

Asia carefully got on the back seat. She looked at Luo Guang's back, unsure whether she should reach out and hold him. But as the motorcycle moved forward, to avoid being thrown off, Asia instinctively wrapped her arms around Luo Guang from behind.

"Ah?"

After the initial discomfort, Asia quickly felt an unusual sensation. It was warm and secure. It was strange. She had never felt this way before, even in the church, where the priests, bishops, and nuns had always been kind to her. Yet, no one had ever hugged her, and she had never hugged anyone else.

After being exiled by the church, she had experienced the coldness of the world. The air outside was cold, the water was cold, and the bed she slept on was ice-cold. But Luo Guang's back was warm. This rare feeling of warmth temporarily calmed her anxious heart. She narrowed her eyes and pressed half of her body against Luo Guang, her face showing a look of contentment.

After they got home, Luo Guang showed Asia to her room and then left. The little nun looked at the luxurious room she had never experienced before. After touching the soft, clean sheets, tears uncontrollably fell again. At that moment, Asia made a decision. No matter what happened in the future, she would repay him with her life.

Then, Luo Guang's cold face uncontrollably appeared in her mind. If she were to repay him with her life... and if she were asked to do that kind of thing in the future, should she agree? Or should she agree? Or... should she agree immediately?

Just as her mind was racing with these thoughts, a small hand rested on her shoulder from behind. Asia was startled. But when she turned around and saw a small girl with long silvery-white hair and a dress, who was even smaller than her, the fear on her face quickly disappeared.

"Who are you?"

"Luo Guang is my master. I am his sword. I do whatever he tells me to do." Est looked at Asia with a blank expression. In her heart, she was displeased with this beautiful girl that Luo Guang had picked up.

"I... I'm Asia Argento. It's nice to... nice to meet you."

When Asia tried to shake Est's hand, she found that the girl had already turned and left.

"Huh?" Asia was confused. Had she done something to upset her?
