"Sister Fia, are you really not coming to the Human World with me?"
"I still have some things to deal with; I'll come find you after I'm done."
After bidding farewell to Grayfia, Linde left the castle with his luggage.
Soon.
Linde arrived in an extremely vast space.
It was somewhat similar to a train station in the Human World..
A train with sharp angles and covered in demon markings was parked on the tracks.
"It's really quite modern."
Linde muttered, looking at the train.
This train naturally led to the Human World.
Originally, for demons, as long as they mastered Teleportation Magic and had coordinates, they could freely travel between the Human World and the Underworld.
However.
Since it was Linde's first time going to the Human World, he had to formally go through the passage for entry.
Otherwise, it would be illegal entry, which could easily cause trouble.
Of course.
Grayfia had already handled the entry procedures.
Linde only needed to follow the process...
"Beep—!"
The train's whistle sounded.
Linde sat in the first class compartment, retracting his gaze from the spatial ripples outside the window, and began to organize his belongings.
He didn't have many personal items.
Most of them were things needed for the Human World.
"Let me see... This should be the address of the apartment Sister Fia bought for me, so I don't have to worry about a place to live."
"But there isn't much money..."
Linde's mouth twitched slightly as he looked at his wallet.
He had wanted to ask for more.
But Grayfia, under the pretext of making him accustomed to life in the Human World, almost cut even these one hundred thousand in half.
"Fortunately, I am a demon. I'll just borrow some from some scumbags later; I believe they won't mind."
He had a headache over money before transmigration, and if he still had a headache over money after transmigration.
Then what was the point of being a demon?
An hour later.
Linde got off the train and took the elevator up.
The Underworld station was built beneath the Human World station.
Although not far apart, ordinary humans could not discover it at all.
Accidentally stumbling into it was almost impossible.
Stepping out of the station, Linde began to stroll around.
Although Komaou Town was just a town.
Its area was huge, probably not inferior to a city.
Indeed.
The overall area of this world was probably several times that of his previous life.
Linde had originally intended to rob the rich to help the poor.
But perhaps due to luck, he couldn't see a single scumbag.
"Hmm?"
Just as he was about to head home, Linde's gaze slightly narrowed.
On his panel, the Demon Contract was faintly flickering.
"It seems my luck isn't too bad after all."
Linde muttered in a low voice, spreading his perception.
A moment later, his eyes lit up: "Found it."
With a flash, Linde's figure disappeared.
"A ghost..."
The passersby nearby, seeing this scene, all showed expressions of terror.
They looked at the sun above their heads, and cold sweat couldn't stop breaking out.
"Excuse me, could you please move aside?"
Miyano Shiho looked at the several students in front of her, who had dark circles under their eyes and seemed half-asleep, and frowned deeply.
The entire alley was only so wide, and with the four of them blocking the way, she truly couldn't get past.
Hearing Miyano Shiho's words, the four students paused, then all let out excited growls.
"You saw us?"
"You can see me?"
"That's great."
"I'm going to eat her, don't fight me for her."
The four students' delicate faces became distorted, their mouths splitting to their ears, emitting an ominous aura.
"This…"
Miyano Shiho instinctively took a step back.
Even if she was stupid, she realized something was wrong now.
Almost instinctively, she turned and ran.
Bang!
A muffled sound rang out, and Miyano Shiho felt herself Collide into someone's embrace.
Her body stiffened, and an overwhelming despair spread through her heart.
It's over.
There's a monster behind her too.
"Don't be nervous, I'm here to help you."
Linde held her in one arm to prevent her from falling, and with his other hand, he gently waved.
Boom!
A dark red light flashed, and a magic beam tore through the sky, engulfing the bodies of the four Cursed Spirits.
The violent explosion stirred up turbulence, causing Miyano Shiho's skirt to fly up repeatedly.
"Ah ah ah…"
Amidst the shrill screams, the four Cursed Spirits were already reduced to ashes.
"experience 4"
Looking at the text message, Linde's eyelids twitched.
His attribute panel really looked like something from a third-rate web game.
"But with my current strength, it's a good thing that killing these Cursed Spirits gives me experience."
Linde nodded to himself.
If that's the case, he might be able to try grinding for experience to quickly increase his strength.
Miyano Shiho stared blankly at all this, trembling as she said, "They, what are they?"
"Low-level Cursed Spirits."
Linde explained, "Under normal circumstances, they only act against people who can see them."
"Then are you a legendary psychic?"
Miyano Shiho's eyes lit up, feeling as if a mysterious corner of the world had appeared.
If that were the case.
The Black Organization would be nothing.
Could she ask him for help?
Why was this woman so excited?
Linde looked closely, and his eyelids twitched.
No wonder she had the aptitude to be a Retainer/Subordinate.
So it was Miyano Shiho.
But in this world, the timeline wouldn't be chaotic, would it?
After thinking about it carefully, it seemed there was no such thing, and he let out a slight sigh of relief.
"Unfortunately, I am not a psychic."
Miyano Shiho was still excited, "Then are you an exorcist, or a magician?"
"Neither."
Linde shook his head, playfully saying, "Let me introduce myself."
"My name is Linde, and my race is Demon."
"De-Demon?"
Miyano Shiho opened her mouth, her mind struggling to process it.
The person in front of her clearly looked no different from a human, so how could he be a Demon?
"It seems you don't believe me."
Linde smiled, and a pair of slender Demon wings unfolded.
Whoosh!
The air whistled, and under the cover of an ominous aura, the entire alley grew dim.
"…"
Miyano Shiho's pupils contracted violently, feeling as if her worldview had been shattered.
