"......"
After hearing Chiba Akira's words, Nao Hayasaka fell silent for a long time.
"Chiba Akira-sama, when did you realize?" Nao Hayasaka asked, her red lips slightly
parted.
"A long time ago," Chiba Akira replied honestly.
Once he recognized that Nao Hayasaka was the same Nao he knew, he began to
suspect whether she was doing the same things as her daughter.
Her daughter, Ai Hayasaka, was a spy placed beside Kaguya Shinomiya.
So could Nao Hayasaka be a spy placed beside him?
It was precisely because of his suspicions about Nao Hayasaka that he took the
initiative to investigate, allowing him to discover her more obsessive side.
...
Fortunately, Nao Hayasaka hadn't done anything out of line.
Otherwise, Chiba Akira would likely have been taken away by either the old Demon
King or the fallen angels by now.
.....
"Since you know my identity, what do you plan to do, Chiba Akira-sama?" Nao
Hayasaka asked, biting her lip slightly.
Chiba Akira looked directly at Nao Hayasaka.
"I don't intend to hold you accountable; after all, this is your job."
"You not only took good care of me but also concealed my ability to purify various
items and trade with other factions."
"In any case, I should thank you."
"So, Miss Nao, I now give you two choices."
"Choice one: Accept my chess piece, stay by my side, and pledge your loyalty to me,
becoming completely mine."
"Choice two: Erase all memories related to me and leave my side."
After hearing Chiba Akira's plan, Nao Hayasaka smiled helplessly.
"Chiba Akira-sama is truly merciful; I initially thought you wouldn't allow someone like
me to stay by your side."
"How could that be?"
"Absorbing my chess piece represents absolute loyalty to me. I will absolutely trust
anyone who has absorbed a chess piece."
"So, Miss Nao, your choice is....."
Chiba Akira looked at Nao Hayasaka, anticipating her decision.
"Phew~"
Nao Hayasaka exhaled a breath of hesitation as if releasing all her doubts.
"I choose... to absorb your chess piece and continue staying by your side."
Nao Hayasaka made the choice that Chiba Akira had anticipated.
The blue sign-in task wouldn't be too difficult; that was why Chiba Akira dared to lay
everything on the line.
....
A black "soldier" chess piece appeared in Chiba Akira's hand and flew into Nao
Hayasaka's grasp.
Without any ripples, Nao Hayasaka quickly completed the absorption of the chess
piece.
[Ding!~]
[Congratulations! Host has completed sign-in task!]
[Sign-in Level: Blue.]
[Sign-in Event: Removing Hidden Dangers.]
[Congratulations! Host has received reward: Observation Countermeasure Barrier.
]
[Observation Countermeasure Barrier: As the name implies, this barrier can resist any
observation and inspection.
As long as the host wishes it, they can undergo any mechanical or powerful detection
without being detected as abnormal.
Moreover, the host can even disguise detection data as belonging to other races.**
"Good stuff."
"With this barrier, I won't have to worry about what the current Demon King might
check on me."
"This ability is simply essential for a spy. If I wanted to I could even be detected as
having fallen angel body data!"
Chiba Akira felt relieved inside and casually threw an Eye of Appraisal at Nao
Hayasaka.
[Name: Nao Hayasaka (♀)]
[Level: lv125 (Mid-Level High-Ranking Demon)]
[Attribute Evaluation]
[Note: Strength within same rank.]
[Strength: C+ → B]
[Speed: C → B]
[Magic Power: C+ → B]
[Body Strength: C → B]
[Martial Arts or Spell Proficiency: D+ (A typical reincarnated demon; even among
reincarnated demons she ranks lower; without special opportunities she could never
become a high-ranking demon.)]
[Artifact or Bloodline Ability: C → B+ (Artifact: Observer; capable of directional
reconnaissance and intelligence gathering. After absorbing the exceptional chess
piece it can soon reach forbidden techniques.)]
[Overall Evaluation: C → B Level High-Ranking Demon.]
**[Final Assessment: Originally an ordinary reincarnated demon with an artifact for
intelligence gathering; after absorbing the host's purification energy underwent
evolution and rose in strength to become a high-ranking demon.
After absorbing the exceptional chess piece, the artifact "Observer" officially unlocks
forbidden techniques with strong capabilities in intelligence gathering.]**
....
After reviewing Nao Hayasaka's appraisal panel, Chiba Akira displayed a subtle
expression.
Wow.
A high-ranking demon?
It seemed that Nao Hayasaka had gained quite a few benefits from him.
He understood why she had been acting so infatuated with him privately.
She must have gradually become unable to part from him under the influence of his
succubus bloodline while enjoying his benefits!
"Miss Nao, come to my room tonight; I have some questions for you."
"Eh?"
"Alright; I understand."
Nao Hayasaka was initially startled but then lowered her head and blushed as she
agreed to Chiba Akira's request.
....
That night,
Dressed in a white maid outfit, Nao Hayasaka knocked on Chiba Akira's door.
As soon as he opened it she knelt before him in sincere servitude toward her master.
"Hmm~"
Chiba Akira hadn't expected Nao Hayasaka to be so direct.
High-dimensional succubus bloodline—terrifying indeed!
"Well then, Miss Nao; please continue while I ask my questions."
"Mhm..."
Nao Hayasaka replied softly; given her current state responding like this was already
her limit.
Confirming that Nao Hayasaka was clear-headed, Chiba Akira began his inquiries.
"Since you are a spy then who exactly sent you to my side?"
"After being sent here what specific tasks were assigned to you?"
"How do you report intelligence back to your superiors?"
"What do your superiors know about me?"
"If we both keep this hidden can we continue concealing it?"
"Mhm..."
After drinking from Chiba Akira's gift filled with purification energy, Nao Hayasaka
slowly raised her head and opened her red lips.
Chiba Akira confirmed he wasn't mistaken; from Nao Hayasaka's blue eyes he saw
pink hearts reflected within them.
"Chiba Akira-sama, I will answer your questions now."
