After much consideration, Aresta finally gave up on the idea of snatching the cell phone from Misaka Mikoto.
Based on Misaka Mikoto's behavior, she should be going to the research center to stop the experiment. In other words, she was ready to make a move. All he had to do was to wait and see.
Plan before taking action.
Aresta liked to plan before taking action. But now, it was no longer up to him to decide whether or not the plan could be carried out, and even if it was decided, whether or not he could take action in time was no longer up to him.
Meanwhile, in the Land of Fantasy.
"That's it. From now on, you'll live in the Red Devil Tavern. Midnight will bring you to school in the Human Realm in the morning and bring you back in the afternoon. You can learn magic from Patchouli or play with the fairies … Don't worry, I'll come and see you often."
Tang Hao patted Xiao Ying's head and said with a smile.
He had made the appropriate arrangements for Xiao Ying's life for the past few days.
The Red Devil Tavern was the most suitable place for her to live in. First, she had money and did not need to worry about food and drink. Second, she had Patchouli with her so she did not need to worry about her safety. Moreover, she was very talented in magic. It would be a waste to ignore her talent. Following Patchouli would solve this problem. It was killing three birds with one stone.
As for letting Midnight take Xiao Ying to and from school, it would not cause her any trouble. After all, Midnight was the one who took care of everything in the Red Devil Tavern. She would go shopping in the Human Realm every day.
The Red Devil Tavern did not reject such an arrangement. Xiao Ying was a little disappointed that she could not live with Tang Hao. However, after experiencing those changes, she had become very sensible. She knew that Tang Hao did not have time to take care of her, so she agreed obediently.
Tang Hao knew that she was still a little reluctant. He could see it from the occasional expressions on her face. Perhaps she might not be able to adapt to such a life in the beginning, but she would get used to it after a long time. No matter what, it was much more convenient than living in his world.
Since there was still some time left, Tang Hao took Xiao Ying around the Red Devil Tavern a few times and played with the fairy maids for a while.
The Red Fiend Tavern kept many Fey maids. Although they were maids in name, they were actually freeloaders. Apart from laughing and fooling around, they did not know how to do anything.
In Reemilia's words, the Red Daemon was so large that it would be too boring if there were only the few of them. The Fairy Maids were perfect to add some liveliness to the Red Daemon … Well, they were basically mascots.
In fact, this was one of the reasons why Reemilia was willing to accept Xiao Ying. After all, the house was big, and there had to be someone to live in. The more people, the livelier it would be. Anyway, Reemilia was not short of money.
Not long after, Tang Hao brought Xiao Ying to Patchouli's library.
A few days ago, the library was still bustling with activity. Kato Megumi, Yukino, Hikari Ichihara, and Asuna were studying magic with Patrice. Their daily chatter had died down, but now, it had quietened down.
As early as two days ago, the others had already returned to their respective worlds.
After all, Megumi Kato and Yukina still had to go to school. If they were out for too long, their families would be worried. Asuna and the others also had their own things to do and could not stay in Fantasy Village for long. Sauron, on the other hand, had been taken by Tang Hao to Kaguya's Time Cabin to train for half a year. His strength had improved by leaps and bounds. In Tang Hao's opinion, he probably had the combat power of the Water City period in the original work.
Unfortunately, he did not manage to master Haki.
This was also the reason why Sauron only stayed in the Time Cabin for half a year before leaving. After all, some things could not be achieved by simply relying on the accumulation of time. He also needed the guidance of a famous teacher. Although he learned about the existence of Haki from Tang Hao, Tang Hao still knew nothing about the training of Haki.
Oda did not explain in detail how to train this thing at all in the manga!
Oda probably did not understand it either.
…
Time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already midnight. Most of the people in the Red Fiend Dojo had already gone to bed. Only Patchouli was still studying magic throughout the night. When they first came to Fantasy Village, Patchouli said that her new magic was about to have a breakthrough. In the end, she was still stuck at a bottleneck. It seemed that the study of magic was not something that could be done overnight.
After saying goodbye to Patchouli, Tang Hao left the Red Fiend Dojo and immediately contacted Amethyst. The moment his Travel Points were fully restored, the two of them set off at the same time and headed to the Magic Prohibited World.
At the same time, near a certain research institute, Misaka Mikoto was wearing casual clothes and a hat on her head. She was hiding in a hidden corner. With a swoosh, two figures landed beside her.
"You're finally here!" Misaka Mikoto was instantly overjoyed. Even though she had repeatedly confirmed in the chat room that Tang Hao and Amethyst would come today, she was still worried that something might have happened. Now that the two of them had arrived in person, she finally felt relieved.
"Hmm?"
Aresta opened his eyes abruptly.
Two more people came?
A young man and a young girl?
They were both new faces that he had never seen before. Putting aside the young man, the young girl … When Aresta saw Amethyst, he felt a faint sense of danger. It was a feeling that he had not experienced for a long time.
Zzzt —
Ah, it turned black.
All of a sudden, Aresta could no longer see what was happening on the other side. He knew that Misaka Mikoto had made a move.
No matter how advanced the hovering loop was, it was still a mechanical device with magnetic force. As long as it was a device with magnetic force or electricity, it would be under Misaka Mikoto's control. With just a little bit of her ability, she would be able to completely destroy it.
In other words, Misaka Mikoto was one of the few people in the campus city who could shield herself from Aresta's prying eyes.
However, Misaka Mikoto probably did not know about the existence of the hovering loop. She did not deliberately destroy it earlier. Now that she suddenly made a move …
"Is it because she doesn't want me to spy on her? In fact, she already knew about it a long time ago. She had been pretending that she did not know about it. I miscalculated …"
In an instant, Aresta felt that he had been tricked.
He could not bring himself to be happy.
On the other hand, Tang Hao and Amethyst had turned their attention to somewhere in the campus city. It was located in School District 7. There was a windowless building. Even though it was an iconic building, it could be seen from any corner of the campus city.
That was where Aresta was!
"Let's go."
Tang Hao called out softly. He did not bring Misaka Mikoto with him as he stepped into the gap between Amethyst's buildings.
The next moment, the gap opened up inside the windowless building.
Tang Hao stepped out and looked forward. There was only one thing in the huge and spacious room. It was a life support device that was about ten meters long and made entirely of tempered glass. The device was filled with a red liquid and a man was floating head first in the liquid.
Aresta Crowley.
