Chapter 71: Improved Indoctrination ; New ce to Stay


    Koneko gives me a quick exnation of Rating Games, what significance they hold, and their value for Devils.


    To put it in simple terms, it determines the power of a Devil. Apparently, the top-ranked Devils are almost impossible to beat.


    An intriguing notion.


    So, Rias has agreed to hold such a Rating Game with Riser. Depending on the final result, the marriage that had been agreed upon could be annulled.


    I''m going to be participating in it for various reasons. The main one being that I will be having fun breaking Riser''s psyche.


    Then,es his immortality that I will be plundering.


    Why would I need that? Obviously, because it would be useful ifbined with Gift.


    Besides, it could be used as a trump card against enemies if thought out properly.


    I wonder how I should deal with the guy himself


    Well, I''ll think about it once the timees, so for now, I should think of my current state of affairs.


    First, I must find a ce for us to stay, however, that''s easier said than done...


    Hold on,


    "Hey Yuno, are you able to form a spatial gateway between two locations? You did form a spatial gateway between two tforms after all, even if it fagged your powers.


    "Yes, I should be able to do that," she says before asking, "Do you need to make use of it?"


    I nod my head in response, which makes her giggle happily.


    Does she enjoy being of use to me? Cute. I just hope that she keeps it within a range that can be considered so.


    "What are you nning?" Sora asks me.


    "Nothing much, really. I will just get us a new mansion in the ''real world'' somehow and may make use of her powers to link them with other mansions that I might get my hands on.


    "Thus, we will all be able to live rather well."


    Sora looks at me wryly but doesn''t say anything. Koneko''s ears are twitching a little urging me to y with them even more.


    Shifting my head, I kiss Koneko''s cheek lightly before looking at Yuno. What meets my eyes is a sulking face as Yuno stares at the nekomata on myp.


    I pat her head to make any dangerous thoughts that Yuno might have go away, as I am well aware of how much her thoughts can drift off from normality.


    cing Koneko on the bed as I get up from it, I bid the three of them farewell, before leaving for a walk.


    Going outside the building, I notice that it''s dark.


    Recalling Irene''s words, a worrying thought crosses my mind. That is, the location of the Arena may change arbitrarily, which can be quite dangerous if it takes ce unexpectedly.


    {Father doesn''t need to worry about that. There will be a warning before it urs.}


    Good. I don''t want to even begin imagining all the things that could go wrong if it wasn''t like so.


    Now then, I should probably work on the new house we''re going to stay in.


    Now that I think about it... I could go somewhere isted and create a mansion there, but then several issues would arise.


    No inte, electricity or anything for that matter.


    Oh, right! Indoctrination.


    Now that more than three hours have passed, it should be avable for usage. I just need to find someone to try it out on.


    Exiting the Arena, I find myself back at school in the ult Research club-room.


    As I am about to leave the school, I sense several presences within the school perimeter, and upon checking them out, I see that they''re the school guards. All of them except for one.


    A girl that seems to be a student here is attempting to go inside a ss, however, she is unable to do so because the door is locked.


    I should help her out, or so I would like to say, but I want nothing more than to try out Indoctrination on her.


    Using Blink to disappear from one corridor and reappear in another, I reach the location where the girl is at pretty soon.


    I lightly cough to inform the girl of my presence.


    Knowing that she will scream, I use Indoctrination tomand her: "Stay silent."


    The girl immediately finds herself unable to talk anymore no matter how much she tries to.


    Ho~ From the looks of it, if I will for it, they will keep their rity of mind while obeying my orders now.


    "What''s your name?" I ask her while coolly creating a chair using Creation.


    The girl''s eyes widen, as she monotonously replies to my inquiry,


    "Kristina Parsons."


    Looks like an order I give could overwrite another while keeping the one previous one once it''s over.


    Kristina attempts to run away, but I order her to get back and stand in front of me.


    Is it bad that I''m using my powers so openly? Not at all. In fact, I would like her to talk about whatever that has happened or will happen to others.


    It would be quite the sight. Her friendsughing at her and calling her an imbecile, while she suffers, not knowing who talk with that would believe her.


    Now then, time to try out all the possibilities of my ability


    ---


    That took a while.


    Creating a bag of chips, I begin to enjoy it while thinking of what I am able to do with my ability.


    I''vee up with a simple n: Take over the property of that guy I had killed for the contract while erasing the memories and brainwashing all rted parties.


    Quite simple.


    As for money, I can keep on taking contracts from the dark web or perhaps somehow gain ess to someone''s wealth.


    ---


    Looking at the empty mansion, I''m overwhelmed by a euphoric feeling as I begin to think of life in it with the girls.


    I can link other mansions I get using Yuno''s power, so this is not even the end of it.


    Kind of reminds me of a game I used to y in my former life before it became hell on earth...


    Also, it''s just in time, as the others will soon arrive in the Rift.


    I''ve missed them all so much, especially Ayumi.


    But it''s going to be real pain in the ass to exin to Ayumi that I have a sister in this "world".


    Also, I don''t think Nao will find the number of girls apanying me appealing


    Nevertheless, I''m letting none of them go away, as selfish as that may be.


    I need to return to Project Charlotte sometime to close off all opens ends and bring Shinoa over.


    Irene, grab the data of this mansion from me and make them all appear here.


    {Affirmative.}


    Now, I need to go to sleep. Bringing the others over to the mansion will be left for tomorrow.


    "Arena."


    Finding myself in the now-familiar city, I use irvoyance to check everyone out.


    As expected all of them are asleep except for Raynare and Asia.


    The former is standing in front of a mirror and admiring her new lookbined with the two pairs of wings on her back.


    As for thetter, she seems to be feeling a little uneasy. She might be feeling lonely and in need of some warmth.


    Flying up so that I''m right beside the room Asia is in, I phase through the whole, shocking her.


    Once she calms down upon realizing it''s me, I slowly walk over to her bed as she asks me,


    "Did you need something, Your Holiness?"


    Shaking my head, I run my hand through her blond hair and move my face closer to hers as I whisper,


    "I thought you''d be feeling lonely, so I decided to apany you to sleep."


    A blush covers Asia''s face as she averts her eyes, nervously muttering,


    "O-Okay."


    Smiling at how cute she''s acting, I give her a quick peck on the lips, which surprises her a lot.


    Not minding the dazed Asia, I move the nket and get underneath it before cuddling her to myself.


    "Goodnight,"


    I whisper into her ear.


    She flinches a little before holding me and going to sleep.
