Chapter 448: Don't Be a Free Laborer
Corridor of the Saikai Academy High School building.
When Aize caught up with Nangong Nayue and was about to call her, a lace fan was swung towards him and pointed at his head.
"If you dare to add the word 'sauce' after your homeroom teacher's name again, I will make your vacation a mess."
Nangong Nayue held up a lace fan, pointed at Aize's nose, and issued a serious warning.
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore, okay?" Aize raised his hands, made a gesture of surrender, and said, "Obviously everyone is calling me that, I'm just following the crowd, why are you targeting me?"
"I'm targeting all those brats who dare to call me that." Nangong Nayue snorted coldly and said, "As for you, a guy who came to steal my business, being called that by you only makes me feel looked down upon."
“Who dares to look down on you, Nangong Nayue?” Aize curled his lips and said, “Even the three saints of the Lion King Organization would not dare to look down on the famous [Witch of the Gap], right?”
Although the Three Saints are the strongest magic attackers in the human race, Nangong Nayue is not bad either.
Although he is now just an instructor in the Demon Special Zone, in Europe, he is a ruthless man who has made a name for himself as a demon killer and can escape unscathed.
That is the territory of the War King, and it can be said to be the base camp of vampires and most of the demons. Being able to act recklessly in such a place and still get away with it, and even live so comfortably and freely, is enough to show that Nangong Nayue is not an ordinary person.
Fortunately, Nangong Nayue lived in a quiet corner and was content to stay on the Genshin Island, otherwise he could have competed for the title of the strongest magic attacker in the world.
If not for this, he would not have unceremoniously called Wattra, the being closest to the True Ancestor, a "snake charmer".
It can be said that even if Watara really fought with Nangong Nayue, it is still unknown whether he could gain the upper hand.
From this we can see how extraordinary Nangong Nayue is.
However, I am arrogant and have no interest in those so-called false names.
"You came over to stop me just to flatter me?" Nangong Nayue glanced at Aize and said, "If you have anything to say, just tell me now. I still have work to do."
Hearing this, Aize smiled and uttered a word.
"LCO."
When this word reached Nangong Nayue's ears, the impatient head teacher suddenly froze there.
"...Where did you hear this?"
Nangong Nayue's tone changed, and her attitude became extremely thorough, causing the leisurely atmosphere around them to change into something tense and heavy.
On the other hand, Aize still looked casual.
"Come on, I'm a spy for the Lion King Agency after all. How could I not know about the existence of this world-famous criminal organization?"
Aize said this quite calmly.
LCO, the full name of which is "Library of Criminal Organization", commonly known as "the library", is, as Aize said, a world-renowned huge criminal organization, a force composed only of high-level magicians and witches.
In this world, there is a kind of book called a magic book.
It is a magical book that records various secrets such as magic spells, procedures for magic rituals, and methods of controlling spirits.
These magical books, which are used to record various mysterious spells, procedures for magic rituals, or methods of controlling spirits, have become tainted with mystery and possessed power in the process of accumulating vast amounts of knowledge. Ultimately, without exception, they have become props that can bring about great disasters and grant readers powers beyond human intelligence.
Therefore, those who explored the way of magic, without exception, began to pursue magic books that could allow them to gain knowledge, wisdom, and even power.
However, there are only a few people who can read the magician's mind and bring the huge accumulated magic power under their own control.
Therefore, in the history of this world, countless researchers have failed in manipulating, reading, and using magic books, and ultimately ended up on the path of self-destruction.
The serious consequences caused by improper manipulation, reading and use of the magic book are even enough to affect the surroundings. If a powerful magic book gets out of control, the disaster it releases will destroy several cities and pollute the souls of tens or hundreds of thousands of people. It is a very common occurrence.
Therefore, many magicians and witches were worried about this, and Bing established LCO - an organization known as the "Library".
They collect magic books from all over the world, strictly classify them according to their uses, and seal them. They only lend the books to selected people, allowing those who are qualified enough to use these magic books.
But gradually, they began to use the magic book not for the development of magic, nor for protecting the peace of the world, but only to satisfy their own curiosity and desires, and eventually became a group of magic researchers who acted arbitrarily and only cared about themselves.
There are thousands of people in the library, and it is named after the large number of magic books it owns. So far, it has committed many large-scale magic incidents, causing suffering to many families and even cities, and the number of victims is countless.
As a national demon hunter, you should know about this kind of international criminal organization.
but……
"You suddenly mentioned these guys, it shouldn't be to make fun of me, right?" Nangong Nayue said coldly: "Tell me, what do you know?"
Hearing Nangong Nayue's deliberately cold words, Aize smiled.
"It is said that many years ago, Genshin Island experienced a magical crime." Aize said as if talking to himself: "The leader of the incident was the LCO's chief librarian. She is not only a famous witch, but also carries an extremely powerful, even terrifying magic book."
Nangong Nayue remained silent, but she exerted a little force on the hand holding the lace fan.
The so-called witches are not actually human magicians or wizards, but a nickname for a group of women who have made a contract with the devil.
They usually have a wish that they want to fulfill, and decide to make a contract with the devil in order to fulfill their wish.
After signing a contract with the devil, they will be able to manipulate magic power that is even enough to rival that of higher-level demons. Their magical skills and techniques will reach a level that even the highest-level magicians can easily surpass, and some will even have special abilities.
Therefore, they are outliers among humans, and outliers among outliers. They are demonic women that people fear.
Of course, this doesn't come without a price.
By signing a contract with the devil and gaining enough power to realize their wishes, they also pay an equal price.
This price is not fixed. It may be that you must achieve a certain goal, or that you must achieve a certain accomplishment. It may even require sacrificing the blood of a loved one, using the lives of others as a price, and living in pain for the rest of your life.
For this reason, after signing a contract with the devil, the witches will also become the followers of the devil's incarnation. They are both the source of the witch's power and the witch's monitor. While protecting the witch who is the host, if a witch intends to break the contract, they will become the executioner who reaps the witch's life and kill her.
A witch is a person who is given power by the devil and is willing to sacrifice her freedom and soul in order to realize her own wishes.
[The Witch of the Gap] - This title is both a compliment to Nangong Nayue, but it is also a symbol of her true identity.
Yes.
Nangong Nayue is a genuine witch.
Therefore, she knew better than anyone how closely the incident mentioned by Aize was related to herself.
"Is that what you mean?"
Nangong Nayue seemed to know what Aize was about to say. She looked at him and spoke expressionlessly.
"In order to rescue the organization's top executives and retrieve the precious magic book, the library has set its sights on Genshin Island?"
It has to be said that Nangong Nayue was very perceptive and immediately realized the meaning of Aize's words.
"That great librarian was captured by you, Teacher Nangong, right?" Aize said, "That powerful magic book is also in your hands, right?"
Nangong Nayue understood the hidden meaning once again.
"I see. The target is not Genkami Island, but me?"
Nangong Nayue still had a blank expression on her face, but she emanated a chill.
"If those people want to do something, then this Halongyuan Festival should be a good opportunity, right?"
Aize's hint made Nangong Nayue couldn't help but click her tongue.
"Why are you so kind to come and remind me? Are you planning to use me as a laborer?"
The unhappiness in Nangong Nayue's tone could no longer be concealed.
"I just want to tell Teacher Nangong that I'm not the only one who can cause trouble, okay?" Aize spread his hands and said innocently, "In order for students to have a happy holiday, you should know what to do, right?"
This is secretly telling Nangong Nayue that if she doesn't want to get involved in strange events and cause trouble, then she should lend a hand and solve the problem herself.
Otherwise, if something really happens, you will have to blame yourself for being involved and making a mess of it.
Aize originally wanted to do it himself, but since Nangong Nayue was bothering him so much, he naturally didn't want to be a free laborer anymore.
So he laid his cards on the table and let Nangong Nayue handle it herself, and found something for her to do so that she wouldn't always be staring at him and making things difficult for him.
“You bastard…”
Nangong Nayue raised the lace fan, as if ready to hit him on the head.
But Aize had anticipated this and disappeared without a trace, leaving Nangong Nayue with no place to vent her anger.
Thinking of what Aize told her, Nangong Nayue couldn't help but get angry.
"The library... is such a troublesome thing."
It seems that I really need to pay attention and make some arrangements.
