Omonai Naoko hesitated briefly before saying, "I mentioned the school's reform needed investors. Kuroe offered the loan, saying he'd become principal once it was built."
"Absurd!"
"Ridiculous!"
"Impossible!"
No matter how the three investigators pressed or threatened, Naoko stuck to her story.
Frustrated, they relented. The root issue was the bank's negligence—blame fell on their poor hiring.
They couldn't just arrest Naoko.
Kuroe hadn't gifted her the money; it was a legitimate loan contract.
"We understand the situation. We may contact you again," the investigators said politely, rising to leave.
Lingering was pointless.
"Hmph! Hope that's the last of it!" Naoko sneered, placing a recorder on the table. "Or this recording of you threatening a citizen might leak!"
She pressed play.
"Headmistress Omonai, I'm from the Financial Crime Special Investigation Team…"
They'd been recorded from the start! The trio's faces paled, sweat beading.
"It won't happen! I swear this has nothing more to do with you!" they stammered.
Su Ze and Naoko escorted the investigators to the school gate.
The smooth resolution, with a counterblow, owed much to Su Ze's subtle hypnosis.
As he watched them enter their car, a chilling dread crept up his spine.
It was as if he stood on Arctic ice, a cold wind scouring his soul.
He spun, locking onto a figure.
Atop the towering wall, a woman in a purple bodysuit, ninja blade on her back, stared at him.
Without hesitation, he activated True Eye.
[Name: Igawa Asagi]
[Traits: Anti-Demon Ninja, Sensual, Genius, Dark Heart, Demon Bloodline]
[Hobby: Executing Justice]
[Thoughts: ???]
[Description: Anti-Demon Ninjas have guarded the human realm since ancient times. Igawa Asagi is their strongest, with no sexual experience.]
"Huh?! He spotted me!" Igawa Asagi's eyes flashed with surprise. With a leap, she vanished.
"An Anti-Demon Ninja!" Su Ze muttered, equally shocked.
He'd skimmed that famous series out of curiosity.
The standout plot? Asagi's sensitivity cranked to 3,000 times, followed by relentless training!
Nearly every Anti-Demon Ninja faced such "training"—it was practically a training anime!
Ninja betrayals were rampant, leading to their capture.
He vaguely recalled the final boss—a vampire who could create or destroy worlds, powered by Asagi's latent dark forces.
No wonder True Eye couldn't read her thoughts. It was just an 8,000-point budget tool.
"That vampire's creation power came from Asagi's darkness," Su Ze mused, his heart sinking.
With him around, he'd never let this world fall.
A harem garden beat a pile of ruins any day.
Should he kill Asagi now?
Her psyche was flawed.
As a fighter and the planet's apex predator, he was confident he could take her.
But chasing down a superhuman ninja with top-tier escape skills? Tricky.
"The underworld's on the brink. I need to get stronger, fast!" Su Ze thought, taking a deep breath.
"Boss, what're you looking at?" Naoko asked, puzzled.
"A bird," he replied.
Anti-Demon Ninjas didn't act lightly.
A financial case drawing one out? Lousy luck!
He hoped she wouldn't court death.
If she did…
He'd retreat to the surface world, power up, then return to crush her.
His worst fear was a two-front crisis—underworld and surface world both in peril.
Like running into the Joestar family…
If both worlds faced doom, he'd be screwed.
Under shaded trees, a bewitching woman with rose-red hair stood, arms crossed.
Her figure was flawless, her attire revealing, her sultry charm bone-deep. One glance screamed "femme fatale" or "vicious seductress."
Her eyes snapped open, fixing on her suddenly appeared comrade. "Well? Any results?" she teased.
Igawa Asagi replied flatly, "They're all non-magical. Unrelated to us."
Koga Hazuki's eyes glinted, sensing more.
Sure enough, Asagi continued, "But that male student, Su Ze, is odd. He spotted me!"
What?! Hazuki straightened.
Even she might miss Asagi's stealth, yet a non-magical human noticed her!
"And?" Hazuki pressed.
"I'll observe him longer," Asagi said.
"But he already saw you," Hazuki countered, brushing back her hair. Before Asagi could respond, she added, "Last mission was exhausting. I need a break."
She flashed a teacher recruitment flyer for St. Girls' Academy.
Asagi frowned but nodded. "Fine, it's yours. Don't dawdle."
She vanished, her speed barely traceable.
"One boy in the whole school… interesting," Hazuki murmured, her grip tightening, a cat-toying-with-mouse smile curling her lips.
"System, upgrade hypnosis!"
Back inside the school, Su Ze boosted his hypnosis.
His physical prowess was solid, but his mental strength lagged.
Weak minds fell to illusions.
Ten thousand desire points vanished, a cool current flooding his brain, enhancing his mental fortitude and flooding him with hypnosis techniques.
"Desire points never stick around," he sighed.
"Ze-kun! Wait!"
A call rang out.
Su Ze and Naoko turned to see Hirano Natsume and Oribe Mafuyu hurrying over.
The two beauties formed a striking sight.
Natsume wore a tailored teacher's outfit, her curves criminal.
Mafuyu sported a high-collared gray-white blouse, a black-brown midi skirt, and black low heels—conservative.
But Su Ze's ghost eye caught the intricate purple lace lingerie beneath, brimming with allure.
Her training was showing results.
"Headmistress, Ze-kun, big trouble!" Natsume panted, her curves quivering.
She'd called out to them.
"Trouble?" Naoko echoed, frowning.
"A… a…" Natsume gasped, her chest heaving dramatically.
Su Ze raised a brow. After so many "sessions," her stamina was still this bad?
Her massive "peaks" must be weighing her down.
"I'll explain," Mafuyu said, adjusting her glasses, her tone grave. "Soma Seito's mother is here. She opposes his withdrawal and threatens to report us to the Ministry of Education!"
