{Rias Gremory and the rest still seem weak... Well, it might be because they haven't had proper training. Should I offer them one of my Advanced Training Cards? Hard to decide, even though I can create it, it takes time and I spend a lot of energy in the process, after all, I have to use the law of time-space so that only a few seconds pass in the real world. It was also because of this that I could control my Diabolic powers in such a short time, but in reality, it took several months in the training room.}

'What the hell?!' Rias nearly lost her composure. She forcefully swallowed the curse that almost slipped from her mouth and turned her face away, not wanting her expression to be seen.

Koneko let the cookie she was eating fall back onto the plate. Soon after, she picked it up again but remained stunned and forgot to continue eating.

Akeno had already left, so she didn't need to disguise her reaction in front of Light and was outside, flying in the sky, going to make a delivery for one of her clients. 'Light is truly full of surprises. Can he even create something so absurd?' She thought, then let out a charming chuckle in the air and increased her flying speed.

"Koneko-chan." Light called her attention.

"Mm?" Koneko snapped out of her daydream and looked at him.

"Can you pass me one of those sticks?" He pointed to the table in the center of the room.

"Here." Koneko grabbed one and threw it in Light's direction.

It was quite fast and forceful; if it had been thrown at an ordinary human, they'd likely be injured, but Light easily caught it between his thumb and forefinger. He then infused it with the Light Ferry and threw it towards the club's open window.

"Whoosh!"

Like a miniature shooting star, the stick enveloped by Light Ferry tore through the air, producing a whistle-like sound reminiscent of a bird.

"Ahhhh!"

The very next instant, a loud scream echoed, and they saw a sort of chameleon-human standing before the window, now with a finger-wide hole in its forehead.

"Damn you, Amakawa!"

Next, they witnessed the chameleon Youkai turn into ashes, disappearing in front of the window.

"Sorry about that." Light said with a sigh, looking at Rias and the rest.

"... It's nothing." Rias quickly composed herself. She said with a gracious smile, then added: "I kind of expected something like this to happen. Besides, I'm surprised you can handle it so easily. Your attack just now, though it may seem simple on the surface, I sensed that it's not weak at all, right?"

"Well, it's mainly powerful against Youkai and dark beings." Light replied calmly.

Rias caught the subtle way he avoided saying 'Devils'. She gave a slight smile. That's what she started to like about Light; he knew how to behave and act. Had it been someone else, they might've bluntly said it was good for killing Devils and such.

"As expected from the secret ability of the Amakawa family." Rias smiled at him.

Light returned the smile.

'Today's the day Lala will show up. I have to go soon.' Light thought.

Since he was now part of the Occult Research Club, he had to at least stay for a while after class.

"I'm heading out now." Light said, "I just moved yesterday, I still have to set things up at home."

It wasn't a lie, although Himari had already gone home to take care of smaller tasks, he couldn't let her do everything on her own, even if she insisted she could handle it all by herself.

"Really? Then go, we won't keep you any longer." Rias casually dismissed him.

"See you later, Light-san." Koneko said, bidding him farewell.

Light looked at her and, thinking of something, took something out of his pocket, tossing it in her direction, saying, "It's for the stick earlier."

After Light left, Rias went over to Koneko: "What did he give you, Koneko?"

"A lollipop." She showed it. The packaging was unfamiliar, without any letters or such, but the shape and smell... Everything indicated it was a lollipop candy.

"Oh…" Rias lost interest instantly.

However, Koneko had a fondness for sweets, so she liked it. She unwrapped the lollipop and was immediately struck by its sweet, intoxicating aroma, placing it in her mouth and closing her eyes for a moment to savor the flavor.

The taste of the chocolate was rich and decadent, melting softly in Koneko's mouth. The relaxing sensation the lollipop provided was almost immediate, causing Koneko's tense shoulders to slacken slightly. A soft expression of contentment appeared on her face, a rarity for the typically stoic Koneko.

Rias smiled at Koneko's reaction, "It seems you liked this candy."

Koneko gave a small nod in response before turning her attention back to the book in front of her. However, she continued to savor the lollipop, relishing the calming sensation it brought.

What Light had given her wasn't an ordinary lollipop. It was described in the system's store as: 'Relaxing Chocolate Lollipop'. This lollipop has a rich and decadent chocolate flavor. Moreover, it has the ability to provide a sensation of relaxation and calmness to the one who consumes it.

{Watching Koneko, I couldn't help but think of Kuroka.}

Koneko paused in her lollipop sucking, but because it had a strange effect that made her mind relaxed, she continued to savor it. She became a bit agitated, realizing that Light seemed to be thinking of her sister again.

{Many presumed that Kuroka was drunk on her own power, even her little sister, Koneko, and because of this, Kuroka killed their master, but...}

Koneko started to tremble. She didn't know why, but she had a bad feeling. If not for the lollipop in her mouth, her mental state might have been worse.

"Koneko!" Rias, seeing her condition and being the only one in the room, rushed over to her and embraced her.

Then, Light's voice appeared again in her mind.

{The real reason for the murder was to protect her younger sister Shirone from their master, who tried to conduct unethical tests on her in his research about creating a Super Devil. This resulted in her younger sister's near-execution and depression, as well as why she refuses to use Senjutsu and Youjutsu. After the incident, Kuroka became one of the Underworld's most wanted criminals, ranked as Class SS. Tsk, a classic case of a victim becoming the story's villain.}

{Above all, despite her mischievous nature, she can be a kind and compassionate woman who loves Koneko more than anything, wishing for peace more than anyone. To raise Koneko after becoming an orphan, Kuroka agreed to become a reincarnated devil. She murdered her former master to protect her younger sister from him, even though it meant she would be branded as a criminal and continue to play that role. However, Kuroka often struggles to show this side of herself, often choosing to tease her younger sister. Well, maybe deep down she knows that if her little sister stayed with her, Shirone, now known as Koneko, would become a criminal like her and couldn't wander the world freely anymore.}

"Kaichou... Rias-kaichou... Is... Is this true?" Koneko couldn't calm down, not even with the miraculous effect of the lollipop. She felt anguished.

The revelation about her sister Kuroka caused a flood of emotions to wash over Koneko. Anguish enveloped her like a thick fog. She felt betrayed, confused, and at the same time, relieved to find out her sister wasn't the villain she believed her to be.

The truth was like a double-edged sword, cutting through the lies that had surrounded her for so long, but also deepening the wound of their separation. The fact that Kuroka had killed their master to protect her, and not out of madness as she had believed, turned her world upside down.

Koneko wondered if she should feel gratitude, relief, or anger towards her sister. She felt guilty for having misjudged Kuroka and felt powerless to change the past or her sister's current state. Even the calming effect of the lollipop couldn't dispel the storm of emotions forming in her heart; everything she thought she knew about her sister, about herself, and about the world around her was being challenged, leaving her feeling incredibly vulnerable and lost.

"I don't know, Koneko... I really don't know..." Although Rias wanted to deny and comfort Koneko, the truth was that she herself was unsure.

[Kuroka Toujou had a good impression of the Host. The Host's Fortune increased by 50, while Destiny points increased by 250]

Light, who flew in front of his house, stopped instantly upon seeing this notice. 'I kinda expected she might be one of the heroines after all...' He chuckled a bit in his mind: 'Hahaha, anyhow, as expected, she gave me a lot of points just for having a good impression of me.'

Kuroka's role as a lead female was also very important, and she was very strong. Being the furthest from Issei Hyoudou, her Fortune should be greater than the others', perhaps on the same level as Rias Gremory or even surpassing her.

Speaking of Issei, he was indeed resilient. Yesterday, he had less than 200 Fortune, but today he already had more than 200, although not reaching 300.

As Light landed, he felt a protective barrier around the house, but it didn't stop him.

"Young master." Himari, sensing his presence since he didn't bother hiding it, came out to greet him: "Welcome back, young master~"

Her smile was sweet. Dressed in a navy-blue kimono and with her hair tied back, greeting him at the entrance, she looked like his young wife welcoming him home.

"I'm back." Light approached her, pulling her by the waist, and tasted her sweet lips.

It was a quick kiss, their lips soon parting with a soft smack.

"So bold, young master, but I like it~" Her body was pressed against his, her warm breath touched Light's face, and her voice was sweet, slightly teasing and full of charm: "You must be tired. Go take a bath first, young master, leave the rest for later, okay?"

"Mm, thank you for your hard work." Light didn't decline: "Ah yes, tone down the barrier a bit."

"Mm? Why, young master?" Himari couldn't help but ask.

"A friend of mine might come today, it would be bad if this barrier stops her. And, it's just the two of us here, what is there to fear, right?" Light said.
