"Miss Lala, what do you plan to do next?"
Sensing something, a slight curve appeared on Sora's lips as he spoke to the girl.
"Hehehe... as for that, I already have a plan!"
Clenching her little fists with a look of complete confidence, Lala replied.
He couldn't help but roll his eyes. Although they hadn't known each other long, he had already profoundly experienced how unreliable this air-headed girl was. He really didn't dare to have high expectations for her so-called plan.
Though he wasn't very expectant, Lala was full of excitement and was about to say more, but—
CRASH... The window was violently pushed open, and two figures in black suits flew in. Upon seeing them, Lala's expression instantly stiffened.
"You truly are a noble who loves to cause trouble for others."
"Lady Lala, surrender yourself. We absolutely will not let you escape this time!"
The two men in black surrounded Lala from the front and back. Without a doubt, they were Devilukeans who had been chasing her.
With his arms crossed, Sora had the look of someone enjoying a good show, while Lala, snapping back to reality, had an extremely annoyed expression.
"Peke, I told you, didn't I? Not to be followed..."
"Honestly, you stupid robot! Now you've ruined everything, you know that?!!"
"Sniff... I'm sorry, Lady Lala!"
…
Lala furiously scolded her idiot dress-up robot. The master and servant pair bickered, but the two men in black were unmoved. They exchanged a look and began to close in on her step by step.
"Tch, no choice then..."
Noticing their movements, Lala's expression turned grave. She stopped bickering with Peke, took a step back, clenched her fists, and assumed a defensive stance.
The two men in black revealed cold smiles, looking at her as if she were trapped prey. Just as they were about to move in unison to subdue her, an unexpected voice sounded from the side:
"Hey, hey, you two uncles from Deviluke. Is it really okay to just ignore me like this? Miss Lala is my important guest. I don't plan on just standing by and watching you take her away!"
With a wicked smile, it was Sora's voice, instantly drawing the attention of everyone in the room.
The two men in black only just noticed his existence. They frowned. In their eyes, he was just a lowly, weak, ordinary Earthling, no different from an ant on the roadside. If he hadn't spoken up, they probably wouldn't have noticed him at all.
Seeing them pause, the surrounded Lala let out a small sigh of relief. Although she didn't think he could actually help her, his good intentions still made her a little happy and moved.
"Weak Earthling, know your place. This is not your business. Do not interfere!"
One of the men warned him coldly, his expression full of undisguised contempt and disdain.
As members of the number one race in the universe, Devilukeans saw these backward, weak Earthlings as completely insignificant beings.
A sharp glint flashed in Sora's eyes, but he just shrugged and said no more. Under everyone's gaze, he calmly walked over and took one of Lala's hands.
"I don't want my new home to be destroyed by these boorish fellows. Miss Lala, come with me. With me here, they won't be able to hurt you."
Giving her a gentle and confident smile, Sora pulled her onto the windowsill and jumped out.
"Hahaha... this looks fun!"
Being pulled by him as they ran across the rooftops, Lala, who loved chaos, cheered and giggled, cooperating fully.
"Damn it! We won't let you escape!"
Seeing this weak Earthling dare to interfere, the two men in black, snapping back to reality, were furious. They also jumped out the window and gave chase.
"Huh, Sora-san?!!"
Mikan, who was about to close her bedroom window and go to sleep, saw Sora pulling a girl in a pink dress as they ran across the rooftops, with two flying men in black suits in hot pursuit. She was utterly dumbfounded, her face a mask of disbelief.
"Ha... haha... that's impossible. I must be seeing things..."
Snapping back, Mikan looked out at the empty, quiet window and laughed at herself awkwardly, assuming she had been hallucinating.
She wanted to take a good look at the gift Sora-san had given her before bed. No longer paying it any mind, she glanced shyly at Sora's room across the way and closed her window...
,,,
"Woof woof!! Woof woof woof!!!"
"Maron, what's wrong?"
On the quiet street below, Haruna, who was walking her pet dog, wondered why Maron was suddenly barking. She looked in the direction he was facing.
"A thief... huh? So-Sora-san..."
She saw two figures running on the rooftops, but when she recognized her deskmate Kusanagi Sora and an unfamiliar beautiful girl in a dress, she was stunned.
"Yo, Sairenji-san! Good evening!"
Having also spotted the girl below, the great Demon King Sora greeted her with a grin while still pulling Lala along.
"Good eve—"
She was about to habitually bow in return, but remembering the situation, Haruna quickly shook her head and straightened up. This was not the time for that!
Sora-san is running on the rooftops with an unfamiliar beautiful girl. What is going on?
Moreover, to her utter astonishment, why did she also see two flying men in black, one of whom was lifting a large truck and about to throw it at them?!!
Although he was running without looking back, Sora was naturally aware of the situation behind him. He let go of Lala, leaped into the air, and delivered a sweeping kick to the flying truck.
BOOM...
With a loud roar, the flying truck was kicked back by him, crashing into one of the men in black and sending him flying into the sky until he disappeared.
"Ooh... amazing! Sora is amazing!!!"
Seemingly not expecting him to be so strong, Lala jumped up and down in surprise, clapping her little hands and cheering. Peke, in dress form, secretly broke out in a cold sweat, thinking that its initial feeling was right—this Earthling named Kusanagi Sora was a terrifying guy...
Landing back on the ground, Sora had originally planned to finish off the two annoying pests right here, but worried about endangering Haruna below, he decided to run a little further with Lala.
"Sairenji-san, it's dangerous here! Go home quickly!"
He shouted to the girl below, then grabbed Lala and started running again.
"Stop!!!"
The remaining man in black, though shocked by Sora's sudden display of strength, was now committed and had no choice but to pursue them again.
"Sora-san..."
Standing on the street with her little dog, a cool breeze blew past, and a shiver ran through Haruna, finally bringing her back to her senses.
"It's true... it's true... Sora-san is not a normal person!"
She had suspected it when he had kicked the principal away to save her, but at the time, she was the only one who saw it and wasn't sure. But after what she had just witnessed, she was finally certain!
The girl's entire face flushed with excitement, as if she had discovered a great treasure...
"Although Sora-san said it's dangerous, but..."
Logically, she should listen to him and go home immediately. But thinking about what just happened, especially the mysterious beautiful girl with him, she felt she couldn't just let it go...
Gritting her teeth, her eyes flashed with determination. Haruna pulled her little dog Maron and gave chase...
