"As it happens, I am not human..."
As the voice faded, in an instant, a whoosh sound was heard!
Black, bat-like wings spread out from behind Lynn.
"!"
Hitagi Senjougahara's eyes widened slightly, filled with disbelief.
Lynn leaned against the desk, flapping his devil wings, a slight smirk on his lips, "Do you want to make a deal with a devil?"
Such a bizarre scene made Hitagi Senjougahara's heart thump wildly.
She pursed her lips, staring at Lynn's wings, and fell silent.
Asuna Yuuki clutched her head, her eyes dazed, "Right now..."
"What on earth is going on?"
Club President Lynn...
Grew wings?!
And...
A devil.
It feels like I've seen this somewhere before...
Memories flashed through Asuna Yuuki's mind.
Then, a look of realization flashed in her eyes.
It's the Supernatural Investigation Club!
That price list for off-campus requests!
It had prices for all sorts of requests, from Low-class Devil and Middle-Level Demon, all the way up to Demon King!
Hiss—
Asuna Yuuki's heart rate accelerated, her eyes filled with astonishment.
Could it be...
That wasn't just chuunibyou?!
Devils, they actually exist?!
Asuna Yuuki's gaze was complex, "Club President Lynn, you..."
"Are you sure you aren't joking?"
"Of course."
Lynn's tone was full of certainty, "I already told you when you were at the Supernatural Investigation Club, didn't I?"
"Huh?"
Asuna Yuuki was stunned, "When?"
"That price list..."
Asuna Yuuki's eye twitched, "Who in their right mind would believe that kind of thing!"
The existence of supernatural powers had already reshaped her worldview.
And now...
A devil setting has popped up!
Is this still the world she knows?
Hiss—
Asuna Yuuki was suddenly taken aback.
Could it be...
That she is actually inside a virtual reality game world?
And only by uncovering the truth of this world can she return to the real world?!
On the side.
Hitagi Senjougahara had a complex look in her eyes.
She thought she was strange enough already.
But today, she'd seen something even stranger.
"A devil, huh..."
Hitagi Senjougahara murmured, then looked up, meeting Lynn's crimson eyes, her lips moving slightly.
"Compared to humans, perhaps devils are indeed more trustworthy."
Because of her own experiences, Hitagi Senjougahara accepted the setting of Lynn being a devil quite easily.
"?"
Asuna Yuuki looked at Hitagi Senjougahara in disbelief, "Senjougahara, are you..."
"Broken?"
Asuna Yuuki didn't say the word 'brain', but the meaning she conveyed was pretty much that.
Devils are more trustworthy than humans?
If she wasn't broken in the head, she absolutely couldn't say such a thing!
Devils.
Whether in myths and legends or in various documents, they are not exactly trustworthy beings!
"If you had my experiences, you would understand why I said that."
Hitagi Senjougahara's expression was calm.
But this sentence revealed a lot of information.
Asuna Yuuki opened her mouth, then closed it again.
Was it because humans had caused Senjougahara some kind of trauma?
So...
That's why she thinks devils are more trustworthy than humans?
Asuna Yuuki guessed inwardly.
If that was the case, then she really didn't have the standing to say anything about getting Hitagi Senjougahara to trust humans.
However...
Devils are also troublesome in many ways, right?!
But...
Club President Lynn should be fine, right?
Although they hadn't been in contact for long, the impression Lynn gave her was actually quite good.
On the side.
Hitagi Senjougahara gazed at Lynn with deep eyes.
"I didn't expect that the famous Club President of the Supernatural Investigation Club would actually be Mr. Devil."
She sighed, then pulled over a chair and sat opposite Lynn, though her legs were subconsciously pressed together.
Hitagi Senjougahara had a deep impression of the updraft from just a moment ago.
After making full preparations to prevent any wardrobe malfunctions, Hitagi Senjougahara said:
"If it's Mr. Devil, perhaps you really can solve the problem I'm facing."
"?"
Asuna Yuuki's gaze was complex, "You decided just like that?"
Just a moment ago, she had that 'don't meddle in other people's business' look.
Yet, after Club President Lynn revealed his identity as a devil, her attitude changed so quickly?
Hitagi Senjougahara said with a flat expression, "Wasn't it you who said you wanted to solve the problem I'm facing?"
Asuna Yuuki was stunned, then said helplessly, "Fine, I did say that."
As the Student Council President of Shuchiin Academy, she couldn't just ignore the situation with Senjougahara.
But she hadn't expected Lynn's true identity to be a devil!
Asuna Yuuki felt a bit anxious.
"Besides..."
Hitagi Senjougahara continued, "With Mr. Devil here, even if I wanted to leave, I wouldn't be able to, would I?"
That 'updraft' from just a moment ago was completely beyond her ability to resist.
In the end.
She was just an ordinary girl who had lost her weight.
And...
Her blue eyes flickered slightly, "I noticed it from just now."
"Mr. Devil, could it be that you are very interested in me?"
Lynn laughed, "A very keen intuition."
"Keen?"
