"Is the boss planning to interfere in Gremory's family affairs?"
Zhou Ye picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip.
"There's no other way. Akeno is still Rias's 'Queen,' and we're one. I won't hand Akeno over to a spoiled brat."
Shizuka Marikawa was confused, but she grasped the key points.
"So, soon, Rika and Gil will be able to conjure weapons like the boss?"
Nanri Kaori grinned and patted Shizuka Marikawa on the shoulder.
"Shizuka, I'll conjure up a scalpel for you sometime, a pure gold one, the kind studded with diamonds."
Shizuka Marikawa's eyes lit up.
"Really? That's fantastic!"
Jill shook her head helplessly, somewhat used to the two's eccentricities.
She is more concerned with practical issues.
"Can we really learn from and replicate Kiba Yuto's divine weapon?"
"Isn't the power of a divine artifact unique?"
Zhou Ye explained.
"The core of a divine artifact lies in a concept of construction and bestowal."
“I can completely replicate his artifacts and analyze their essence, and then use my power to tailor more suitable creative powers for you.”
He looked at Jill and Nanlixiang.
"Your [Weapon Creation] will be more versatile and have greater potential than [Demon Sword Creation]."
These words further heightened the two women's anticipation.
Time passed by minute by minute.
The people in the living room had different thoughts, but they all paid some attention to the upcoming arrival of Kiba Yuuto.
About half an hour later.
The doorbell rings.
Ding-dong-
Zhou Ye stood up.
"He has arrived."
Chapter 92 Creation of the Demon Sword
The night is dark.
Zhou Ye opened the door, his face displaying just the right amount of enthusiasm.
"It's so late, and you've gone to all this trouble to come over, Kiba-kun."
Standing outside the door was a blond boy wearing a Kooh Academy uniform, none other than Kiba Yuto.
He had a handsome face and a knightly elegance, but there was a hint of imperceptible urgency hidden between his brows.
"That's not true, Mr. Zhou."
Kiba Yuto bowed slightly, his tone respectful.
"I was also acting on the minister's orders."
He raised his head, his azure eyes looking directly at Zhou Ye, filled with inquiry and a hint of hope.
"You really can use my divine artifact, the [Magic Sword Creation], to manufacture the items the minister needs?"
This issue is clearly the core concern of his trip.
The engagement between Rias Gremory and the Phoenix family weighed heavily on the hearts of all her relatives.
The anomaly that occurred on the moon has just ended. Although it was quickly quelled by various forces, it has made certain forces in the underworld even more restless, making the marriage arrangement even more urgent.
If Zhou Ye can come up with an effective way to counter Phoenix, it would be a great help to Rias.
As Rias's most trusted knight, Kiba Yuuto's loyalty to her is beyond question.
The servant, unwilling to submit to his master's fate, will naturally do everything in his power to fight against and change it.
Zhou Ye turned to the side, raised his arm slightly, and made an inviting gesture.
"Let's come in first, it's chilly outside."
Without the slightest hesitation, Kiba Yuto stepped into the living room.
When he saw the scene in the living room, he paused slightly in his steps.
On the sofa, Shizuka Marikawa was hugging a soft cushion, her big, watery eyes curiously looking at him.
Nan Lixiang leaned against the wall not far away, her arms crossed in front of her chest, her eyes sharp as an eagle's, as if she could see right through people's hearts.
Gil Valentine stood by the window, his posture upright, his gaze calm yet scrutinizing.
What alarmed him even more were Nami and Saeko Busujima. They had only met once that morning, but why did they seem stronger now?
"This is Captain Rias's family member, Kiba Yuuto."
Zhou Ye's voice broke the brief silence as he briefly introduced the two parties.
Then, Zhou Ye turned to Kiba Yuto, his expression becoming serious.
"Kiba-kun, Rias should have already mentioned it to you. I need to study your [Demon Sword Creation] carefully."
Kiba Yuto immediately composed himself and nodded solemnly.
"Yes, Mr. Zhou. The minister has already given detailed instructions."
His tone was firm.
"I will do my best to cooperate in anything that can help the minister."
Zhou Ye continued to explain his plan.
"I understand the core concept of 【Creation of the Demon Sword】as a kind of power of construction and bestowal."
"I hope to draw upon this unique concept to create a completely new ability for my two companions, Jill and Rika, which I call [Weapon Creation], or perhaps a better name, [Omnipotent Weaponry]."
He pointed to Jill and Nanlixiang not far away.
"They are all battle-hardened and excellent warriors, and were previously police officers among humans. If they can be allowed to create weapons that are best suited to the battlefield at will, then they will be an indispensable force in Rias's fight against the Phoenix family."
These words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, causing a burst of surprise to erupt in Kiba Yuto's azure eyes.
He originally thought that Zhou Ye just wanted to borrow his artifact to create a specific powerful tool.
Little did they expect that Zhou Ye's goal was so grand—to grant others new abilities similar to the core concept of a divine artifact.
This kind of craftsmanship is countless times more difficult than simply creating a prop, and its potential value and power are far beyond what a prop can achieve.
"【Weapon Creation】? 【All-Encompassing Weapons】?"
Kiba Yuto's gaze towards Zhou Ye now held a deeper, more heartfelt respect.
“Mr. Zhou, your idea is truly… amazing.”
He carefully considered the words.
"If it really succeeds, it will not only greatly help the minister, but also be a qualitative leap for the overall strength of our team."
Zhou Ye smiled faintly, appearing confident.
"Therefore, we still need your strong support in this matter."
"I need to observe closely and analyze in depth the specific energy flow of [Creation of the Demon Sword] when it is activated, as well as its internal construction process."
Upon hearing this, Kiba Yuto did not hesitate or waver in the slightest.
"I totally understand."
He responded decisively.
"Mr. Zhou, please feel free to tell me exactly what you need me to do."
Zhou Ye pondered for a moment, then glanced around the living room.
"This place is a bit cramped; it would be best to find a more spacious place."
"After all, once your demonic swords are fully unleashed, the commotion will be considerable."
Nami spoke up at the opportune moment, her voice carrying a hint of languid charm.
"How's the basement, boss?"
"The space there is spacious enough, and I have also set up some simple isolation barriers to effectively prevent energy fluctuations from leaking out."
Zhou Ye nodded in agreement.
"Okay, let's go to the basement."
He turned to look at Kiba Yuto and asked for his opinion.
"Kiba-kun, you think there's no problem, right?"
Kiba Yuto shook his head decisively.
"I have no problem."
So the group immediately set off towards the basement.
Still somewhat unwilling to give up, Shizuka Marikawa followed closely behind Zhou Ye, lowering her voice and muttering in a coquettish tone.
"Boss, boss, what about mine? Where's my good stuff?"
Zhou Ye chuckled and reached out to gently pat her head, his tone soothing.
"Don't worry, you'll get your share too."
The basement space is indeed much larger than the living room upstairs.
On the surrounding walls, faint runes could be seen, clearly Nami's handwriting, emitting a weak energy fluctuation.
