Chapter 2374: Winning Over



"Transfer student?"

Ai Li looked curiously at the black-haired girl in front of her, who was obviously a little nervous.

Well, a transfer student, and living next door to my house...

"Yes, and this letter... Please accept it."

As she spoke, the girl named Himeragi Setsuna extended her hands respectfully and handed over a letter. Well, if the envelope didn't look quite formal, one might have thought it was a love letter from someone.

"What? Is it a love letter? Is it a love letter from you, Yukina, to your sister?"

Look, there is a misunderstanding here.

"You can tell it's not... Well, let me see what's written inside."

As she spoke, Ai Li took the envelope, opened it, and took out the letter paper inside. It was written in calligraphy, and it used vertical lines in a very ancient style. As for the content, it was quite simple and straightforward, and Ai Li finished reading it quickly.

I see. Are they new recruits sent by the Lion King Agency for training?

According to the letter, the girl in front of them, Himeragi Setsuna, was a newly appointed sword wizard of the Lion King Organization. She was not familiar with the work of a magician, but had heard of the name of the Silver Witch for a long time. That was why they sent this girl here, hoping that they could give her some pointers on the path of a magician...

Of course, that’s all the paper crap.

As for the rest…

I see. We should take action here after all.

After putting away the letter, Ai Li looked at Himeragi Setsuna in front of her with a smile. The latter stared at her with a little uneasiness without saying a word.

In fact, Ai Li had been prepared for what was happening. After she awakened the power of the fourth true ancestor, Na Yue had told her about it more than once. Therefore, Ai Li also understood the current situation very well.

Just like what was said before, the reason why humans can maintain a balance with the demons is because the three True Ancestors check each other. The strength of the three parties is almost the same, so they can maintain a delicate strategic balance. At the same time, they are also afraid that humans will take advantage of them if there is a problem on their side, so they formulate the "Sanctuary Treaty".

But once the fourth True Ancestor appeared, the originally stable triangle immediately turned into a quadrilateral. Once the fourth True Ancestor fell to any of the other three True Ancestors, it was very likely that the consequence would be a war. Of course, if that was all, then humans would have nothing to do except try to protect themselves and pray not to be dragged into it.

But the situation is different now, because the fourth true ancestor who awakened again was once a human.

In this way, humans have an opportunity. If they can win over the Fourth True Ancestor to join the human camp, they will no longer have to serve as a buffer zone for the three True Ancestors to confront each other as before. Instead, they can truly control their own destiny and leap forward to become opponents of the same rank as the other three True Ancestors.

However, humans also have a headache as to how to win her over.

Because Ellie has proven that she is not only strong, but also intelligent. She killed the fourth true ancestor, but she pretended to be fine, and used Zaharias's "Feast of Flame" to awaken her own power, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

Especially when Zaharias held the "Flame Feast", representatives of the three True Ancestors were all present, and the "Chaos Princess" from America came in person. As a result, even they did not expect that this little girl would actually dare to use this opportunity to awaken the power of the fourth True Ancestor in her body...

Careful and courageous, this kind of person is not easy to deal with.

The reason why no one has come to contact Ai Li for so long is mainly because it is a situation where both sides are afraid of each other. Everyone is worried that if they mess up, the fourth true ancestor will be encouraged to join the enemy camp. Of course, humans seem to be more comfortable. After all, Ai Li's identity is still a magic attacker, which is vaguely considered to be on their side.

However, although this kind of "tacit understanding" is beautiful, it will not work without a formal relationship.

Just like all the nice things said at the bar, in the end, it still has to be finalized after the contract is signed, right?

And now, this girl is the "sincerity" they sent.

As for why Ellie is so sure, the reason is very simple - she and the Lion King Agency are not from the same organization.

Nangong Nayue had introduced it to Ai Li a long time ago. Magic Attack Master is a general term for humans to fight against demons, but even among Magic Attack Masters, there are many organizations. It's like the CIA, FBI, and NSA. You may think the positions are similar, but in fact, everyone has different divisions of labor.

Ai Li and Nangong Nayue belong to an organization similar to the FBI, and are magic attackers with law enforcement powers. The Lion King Agency is more like a secret organization like the CIA. If you send a CIA newcomer to the FBI and say it's for training... who would believe it?

Of course, if the other party sent a handsome man, Ellie would kick him away and put him on the blacklist. But now it seems that the Lion King is still very smart and sent an innocent, simple and cute beautiful girl. Just looking at her nervous look, I find it very interesting.

Thinking of this, Ai Li also smiled slightly and looked at Xue Cai.

"Well, Miss Himehira, since you are already here, how about we have dinner together?"

"This, this is not good!"

Upon hearing Airi's invitation, Setsuna was frightened and quickly stepped back, shaking her head, but Nagisa now came over and enthusiastically grabbed her hand.

"What's the matter, Setsuna? You see, we are not only classmates, but also neighbors. This is fate. You just moved here, and you must have not eaten yet. Is there anyone else in your family?"

"there is none left."

However, this time it was Airi who answered Nagisa's question. She shook the letter and said to Nagisa.

"This is a letter from Miss Himeragi, who is considered a work partner. She said that she would be uncomfortable coming to Genkami Island alone, so she hopes that I can take care of her."

"Isn't this better? Come on, come on, Setsuna, come in!"

Hearing this, Nagisa was even more delighted. She just pulled Setsuna straight into the entrance, and the latter was led in with a confused look on her face.

Seeing this, Ai Li also laughed inwardly. Her sister was good at everything except being a chatterbox. Of course, she didn't show it so prominently in front of outsiders. But in front of acquaintances and friends, she would chatter non-stop like a lark. It was obvious that Setsuna was a taciturn person who didn't like to talk much. Facing a naturally outgoing person like Nagisa, she was simply a natural nemesis. So she was in for a good show.

With this thought in mind, Ai Li returned to the living room, brought the dishes to the table, and invited the two to eat.

It was not until this time that Xue Cai had the opportunity to begin to take a closer look at the target in front of her.

She is the fourth true ancestor?

Although she had seen photos before, seeing her in person still gave Xuecai a feeling of disbelief. Photos were inanimate objects after all. Of course, even so, by looking at the photos, Xuecai could see that she was a very beautiful girl. However, when she actually met her, Xuecai felt a little different.

To be honest, before meeting Ai Li, Setsuna was very nervous. She originally wanted to follow her to see what was going on. Unfortunately, Ai Li always went out high and high, and Setsuna didn't have the ability to ride a broom around the streets like Ai Li, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and visit her directly.

Xuecai originally thought that she would be kicked out, but she didn't expect that the other party would actually entertain her very warmly. This made her feel a little embarrassed, but she didn't know what to say.

But what surprised Setsuna the most was Ai Li herself.

In Setsuna's mind, an existence of the level of the Fourth True Ancestor was either extremely terrifying, or extremely gloomy, or had some kind of smirk, and looked like it had bad intentions... But after seeing Ai Li, all these doubts in her heart disappeared.

The smile on the white-haired girl's face was like a gentle breeze, making Setsuna feel quite at ease. Although it was her sister Nagisa who was talking at the dinner table and the white-haired girl just listened quietly most of the time, for some reason this scene did not make people feel awkward at all.

Not only that, every time the white-haired girl's bright red eyes looked at Setsuna, the latter felt a sudden itch in her heart, as if some unspeakable emotion was about to jump out of her body uncontrollably. This made Setsuna very confused, because she had never had this feeling before, and didn't know what it was like.

But overall, the dinner was very enjoyable. After that, Setsuna said goodbye to the two and returned to her home, while Nagisa was sent by Airi to do her homework.

Just at this moment... Suddenly, Ai Li's cell phone rang. She picked up the phone, looked at the name on it, and then opened it.

"Hello? Xiao Nayue? What do you want from me so late at night?"

"I've told you so many times, don't call me Xiao Nayue."

Soon, Nangong Nayue's helpless voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I am your teacher after all."

"What does it matter? Xiao Nayue, you are so cute, you should be paired with Xiao Nayue."

Facing Nangong Nayue's protest, Ai Li smiled and completely ignored it. Ai Li had always liked this older loli who liked to wear Gothic clothes. In fact, when the two were together, she would often go up to her for hugs and cuddles. Nayue had protested against this, but later she just let it go.

So you see, this is the advantage of being a girl. In the words of female characters, taking a bath together, sleeping together, and changing clothes together are all natural and self-evident. If it were a man, he might be beaten to death even if he just glanced under the skirt.

Of course, being a novice is pretty cool, you can lick whatever you like, and you won’t be scolded or beaten…

So, humans have limits!

"Forget it, I won't talk to you about this."

Na Yue had long been helpless about this, so she just brushed it off and then her tone became serious.

"Get ready, we have work to do."

"Is there a case? Is it serious?"

"It's quite serious, a serial murder case. I'm already at the scene, come quickly."

"Understood, I'll be there right away."

Hearing this, Ellie nodded seriously, then she put her phone back in her pocket and walked to the door. At the same time, the coat and hat hanging there came over as if they had their own life and were put on Ellie. Then Ellie walked out the door, waved her hand, and the next moment the broom appeared beside her.

Then Ellie sat sideways on the broom and nodded. Then she jumped out from the balcony and flew away into the distance under the moonlight.

"ah!!"

However, not long after Ellie left, a figure rushed out from the next room in a hurry. She looked at Ellie flying higher and higher in the moonlight, sighed softly, then jumped out quickly and followed.
