The Path to Godhood Begins from the Otherworld

Afterwards, he quickly picked up the clothes scattered on the balcony, tidied his appearance, and cleaned up the remaining lunch box of Shirakawa Miwa. After making sure that nothing was missed, he placed Morishita Wataru, who was unconscious in the flower bed, on a recliner nearby.

Luo Shu has no plans to get rid of Morishita Wataru for the time being, because his intuition tells him that the reason Morishita Wataru was able to receive text messages with a link to download a hypnosis app is most likely because he must have some special value that makes Nomad very excited.

After all, the information about the hypnosis app provided by the World Tree Terminal mentioned that the probability of people using the hypnosis app becoming demonized would increase significantly.

Before he figured out how the hypnosis app developed by Nomad would demonize users like Morishita Shigeru, he felt that a living Morishita Shigeru was far more useful than a dead Morishita Shigeru.

"Morishita Wataru, I hope you can make use of your last remaining value before you die."

Luo Shu glanced coldly at Morishita Wataru who was unconscious on the recliner, returned his cell phone, then turned and left the balcony and returned to Class B classroom.

……

Chapter 17: Lower Succubus Chloe

What Luo Shu didn't know was that shortly after he left the balcony, a wisp of purple-black mist emanated from the unconscious Morishita Wataru.

The fog quickly condensed into a vague figure in the air.

"Ok?"

The blurry figure soon became solid and clear.

A petite and adorable succubus with black, downward-pointing horns, long silver-white hair, and wearing a black and white maid outfit appeared out of thin air on the top of the balcony.

Chloe stared at the unconscious Morishita Wataru, and used her magic power to condense the shape of a hand to pick up the phone from his body.

Chloe quickly discovered that the hypnosis app on the phone had been deleted. Her eyes widened and she murmured in disbelief, "How could someone in this world be able to delete the brainwashing software developed by Nomad? Doesn't this mean that Lady Tiffany is saved?"

When she thought of this, Chloe's golden and red eyes were filled with joy.

However, she soon felt the magic power in her body further weakening.

As a lower-level succubus, she cannot replenish her magic power on her own like royal succubi like Tiffany.

"If that's the case, I must quickly find the human who has the ability to delete the brainwashing software developed by Nomad."

Chloe gently covered her lower abdomen, where the succubus's mark was.

As a low-level succubus, her mark cannot be used as an organ to store magic power.

Most of the marks on the bodies of lower-level succubi are proof of the master-servant contracts signed with royal succubi.

Unless a lower-level succubus obtains permission from a royal succubus and is given the authority to condense a succubus mark, it is impossible for it to condense a succubus mark on its own. This is the iron rule of the succubus clan in the demon world.

Chloe's situation is rather special. The reason why she has the succubus mark is not because her master, the royal succubus Tiffany, is unwilling to give her the permission to condense the succubus mark, but because Tiffany has disappeared since she was forcibly summoned by the Succubus Royal Council.

As a low-level succubus, Chloe would normally not sign a contract with a high-level succubus, let alone a royal succubus, in a demon world where strength prevails and the law of the jungle prevails.

Therefore, no one thought that Tiffany, the first princess of the succubus royal family, would be willing to delegate the precious contract quota to such a weak lower-level succubus.

Before Tiffany was forcibly summoned, she was teleported from the demon world to the derivative world as a precaution. In essence, this was to prevent her sister Chloe from being bullied when he was away.

Tiffany would never have thought that this forced summoning was a hunting operation launched by Nomad, the ruling organization of the demon world, targeting high-ranking officials including the succubus royal family.

It can be said that if Chloe had not accidentally signed a master-servant contract with Tiffany, a royal succubus, before leaving the demon world, the succubus clan would have fallen completely into Nomad's trap.

However, although Chloe had signed a master-servant contract with Tiffany, they were separated by a world, and the magic power that Tiffany could share with her remotely and regularly was actually pitifully small, only enough to maintain her minimum life activities in another world outside the demon world.

When Chloe realized that the magical connection between her and Lady Tiffany's master-servant contract was becoming increasingly imperceptible, she understood that her master had not come to this world to summon her as scheduled, and that something must have happened, although she didn't know what exactly happened.

But Chloe knew very well what a cruel and dark place the demon world was. So when she was not summoned by her master Tiffany to this human world as expected, she followed Tiffany's instructions before leaving and began to secretly search for clues related to Nomad.

Tiffany knew that Nomad was collaborating with the Succubus clan to develop a hypnosis app, and she had told Chloe about it. However, as the Succubus Queen, she was wary of Nomad, so when she received the summons, she instinctively chose to send Chloe, her only contracted servant, to the inner derivative world.

But Tiffany herself would never have thought that it was because she trusted her intuition and sent Chloe out of the demon world that she accidentally avoided the succubus clan from facing a tragic end like the dream-eating tapir.

Even more fortunately, since the two space-time nodes of the Demon Realm and the Inner Derivative World are not in Fusang of the Inner Derivative World, when Chloe was teleported to the Inner Derivative World by Tiffany, the landing place happened to be in Fusang.

After Chloe sneaked out of the time and space node of Aokigahara Forest several months ago, she has been trying hard to search for the remnants of the magic of the "Charm Spell" according to the guidance of her master Tiffany.

When she arrived in Bunkyo Ward, Tokyo last month, she vaguely sensed the remnants of many "charm magic rituals".

When Chloe discovered that there might be a "charm magic formula" in Bunkyo District, she did not take any rash action for her own safety. Instead, she chose to reduce her external activities and began to quietly accumulate magic power.

After a month of accumulation, she finally restored the magic power in her body to a reserve level sufficient to support her in performing three [Dream Folding] operations.

The succubus and the nightmare clan are both mysterious people of the magic element system. They are a mysterious race that is good at using dreams as a medium to perform spells.

However, the [Dream Folding] of the Succubus clan essentially requires the residual magic power of the "Succubus Magic Rituals" as the basis for reality positioning. This ritual was developed by the Succubus clan to use the gap between dreams and reality to cleverly achieve long-distance transmission magic that bypasses the rules of the real world.

The Dream Demon Clan uses the "Dream Weaving Technique" to mark the target in the dream, and then perform [Dream Sympathy] to realize the collective invasion and delivery of dreams. However, they cannot use the gap between dreams and reality to achieve long-distance transmission, because the Dream Demon Clan is a mysterious race that parasitizes dreams, and there is no entity concept recognized by the derived world. The entity of the Dream Demon Clan is only a concept allowed by the rules in the demon world.

This is also the biggest racial difference between the succubus and the nightmare clan.

Chloe didn't know what had happened to the succubus clan, but she instinctively realized that her master Tiffany might be in danger.

Therefore, she was the first to notice the clear and perceptible residual magical aura of the "Charm Magic Formula" that appeared in Bunkyo District for the first time today. After thinking it over again and again, she did not choose to continue waiting.

However, as a lower-level succubus, Chloe wasted a lot of time trying to figure out the principle of the [Dream Fold] spell, which resulted in her not being able to collide with Luo Shu in the first place.

However, Chloe was not completely without gain. She looked around carefully and soon found that this place was very similar to the "school" mentioned in the common sense about the human world that Tiffany had taught her.

"This is the human school Lady Tiffany mentioned. Doesn't that mean it was another human student who caused the human male in front of us to fall into a coma?"

While thinking, Chloe walked up to the unconscious Morishita Wataru and saw the school badge pinned on his school uniform.

"Seishin Academy?"

She murmured softly, wrote down the name of the school, thought for a moment, put the phone back on Morishita Wataru's body, and prepared to leave.

Chloe did not choose to explore Chengshen Academy rashly.

Because Tiffany once told her that as a demon in the human world (the derived world) she would be very conspicuous, so when she went out she needed to disguise herself and avoid being seen as much as possible, especially in public facilities such as human schools.

Chloe would naturally not go against her master's wishes.

More importantly, Chloe knew very well that she had to prioritize her own personal safety. It was not because she was afraid of death, but because she knew that she could not die before finding a way to contact Lady Tiffany and find out what had happened.

For lower-level succubi, a lord who is willing to compromise his master-servant contract will gain their lifelong loyalty.

Now Chloe's mistress Tiffany has lost contact and her safety is unknown.

Chloe knew that she had to be extremely cautious in her current situation as she was weak.

Therefore, she did not dare to stay there for too long. After confirming that there were no more clues on the balcony, she activated [Dream Warp] and teleported back to her temporary base.

Chapter 18: Jinghe Ashaji triggers crisis warning

Luo Shu would never have thought that as soon as he left the balcony, a real succubus followed him along with the residual magic power left after the degraded version of the "Succubus Magic Formula" built into the hypnosis APP was activated by Morishita Wataru during the recycling process.

He was just busy explaining to Reina Hamasaki what he did during his lunch break. Of course, he chose to hide the details of his lovemaking with Miwa Shirakawa.

Reina Hamasaki didn't say anything, but just told Luo Shu that she, Kurumizaka Ruri, and Sasaki Setsuna had returned to school early.

Luo Shu was relieved when he found that Hamasaki Reina did not ask any further questions.

After chatting with the three girls on the social software, he put away the World Tree terminal and returned to the classroom of Class B, Grade 1.

The afternoon classes were just average.

Soon, it was time to go home after school. He first asked the three girls in the group whether they wanted to go home together after school. As a result, he learned that Reina Hamasaki was going to participate in the women's basketball club activities, and Setsuna Sasaki said that she had an appointment with Kaho Kotakamine and Saki Yoshida to go singing.

As for Kurumizaka Ruri, she told Luo Shu that she wanted to deal with the affairs of the Idol Research Club with Tsuzumi Mari.

Luo Shu had no choice but to contact Alice through his mobile phone and found out that she also had something to do.

"Are you going to meet an important guest?"

"Yes, I'm sorry, it's Luo Shu. I just received the news as well."

"That's fine, but you should be more careful at the Jinghe Mansion. Don't forget that Jinghe Asaki is the strongest Taimanin after all."

"I will."

"Contact me later then."

"it is good."

Luo Shu ended the call with Alice and found that he seemed to have nothing to do again.

"Wait, I almost forgot about the teacher."

Luo Shu was about to leave the classroom when he realized that Shirakawa Miwa was still resting in the Sky Island World.

So, he took the time to go back to the Sky Island World, gave Shirakawa Miwa some clean clothes, and took her back to Class B classroom.

After Shirakawa Miwa and Luo Shu talked for a while in the classroom, she refused Luo Shu's offer to take her home.

Luo Shu watched her leave Class B classroom before picking up his schoolbag and preparing to go home.

However, not long after he walked out of the classroom door, he noticed that the alarm mechanism of the teleportation anchor bound to Jinghe Ashaji was triggered.

"Jinghe Ashaji finally took action..."

Luo Shu clearly noticed that Jinghe Ashaji was not in any abnormal state at this time.

"But, has she found Long in this situation?"

Luo Shu rubbed his chin.

He originally thought that Jinghe Ashaji would wait until night to take action, but he didn't expect her to be so impatient.

"It seems that she still cares about her fiancé, Sawaki Kyousuke. But, Asha-ji, you probably didn't expect that when you found Sawaki Kyousuke, he had already been demonized by Habo and turned into a meatball."

Luo Shu muttered to himself while thinking about his next plan of action.

"Should I rush over right away? Or..."

He began to think about how to maximize his own interests.

After all, conquering Asha Igawa is related to whether he can carry out his plan against the demon ninja in the future.

"Well, let's wait and see the information that Boyman sent today."

Thinking of this, Luo Shu suppressed the urge to rush over to rescue Jinghe Ashaji.

Because the teleportation anchor bound to Jinghe Ashaji only triggered the early warning mechanism and did not activate the teleportation mechanism, it showed that her situation at the moment was not dangerous enough.

The most important thing about a hero saving a beauty is naturally the timing of the hero's appearance.

So, he was not particularly anxious.

Luo Shu knew very well that if he wanted to win over a heroine from the other world like Jinghe Ashaji, who already had someone in her heart, or whose heart was completely devoted to the person she loved, he could only proceed step by step without using other world cheats like hypnosis and super powers.

The key to a step-by-step strategy is to seize the opportunity.

What's more, Igawa Asaki is different from the heroines of the other world he met before, because Igawa Asaki is the strongest Taimanin and has certain self-protection abilities.

He knew that only by letting Jinghe Ashaji walk into a desperate situation and making her realize that not only was she unable to protect her fiancé, but she was also in a difficult situation herself, could he shake her strong will.

With this in mind, Luo Shu patiently took out the World Tree Terminal from his pocket, opened his mailbox, and began to check the intelligence emails sent by Boyman and Nomad.

While Luo Shu was looking at his phone, he walked to the entrance and changed his shoes. He roughly browsed through the intelligence email that Boyman sent on the first day.

"As expected, Nomad Precision Manufacturing has established a network of contacts in Fuso over the past decade. However, I didn't expect Nomad to go beyond just targeting Fuso's business and social circles and even begin infiltrating Fuso's political circles. Also, that artificial island project Boyman mentioned, over a hundred nautical miles off the coast of Tokyo Bay, seems extremely suspicious."

After Luo Shu made note of this artificial island in his mind, he frowned because he found that Boyman could provide too little valuable information.

"It's a pity that Boyman has so little information. It seems that Nomad doesn't pay much attention to the Boyman family. But if you think about it carefully, this is not surprising. After all, Boyman is just a weapon used by Nomad to attack the Liulichuan family. His influence in Fuso's social and economic circles is also average."

After realizing this, he felt that it was not particularly reliable to collect more information about Nomad through Boyman.

"It seems that we can only find another breakthrough. Well, let's start with Jinghe Asaki. Long, please don't let me down."

Luo Shu changed his shoes, walked out of the teaching building, looked up in the direction of Tokyo's Itabashi District, and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.

At the same time, on the other side, in Fuso Tokyo Itabashi District, in the basement of a factory in the northern part.

Jinghe Ashaji had just dealt with the ugly demon that was blocking the way in the pipeline.

These monsters look ferocious and hideous. Most of them are hybrids of humans, orcs, goblins and even dog-headed people, and without exception, they are in naked DIAO state.

Unfortunately, Jinghe Ashaji was completely unmoved because she had hunted too many similar monsters.

At this moment, she just stared at the bloody mark left by Long on the wall, and felt the ominous premonition in her heart becoming stronger and stronger.

"Kyousuke, wait for me."

The low murmurs she made echoed in the underground pipes littered with broken branches, but received no response.

Asaki Igawa, who is known as the strongest Taimanin, felt fear in her heart for the first time in her life.

This fear did not come from fear of demons, nor from worry about Oboro's return, but was born out of her fear of Sawaki Kyousuke's situation.
