Riser gazed at Yubelluna intensely, his serious expression revealing curiosity. "Have you already contacted the human witch, Amelia?"
Yubelluna slightly nodded in affirmation. "Yes, Riser Sama. I made the contact as requested. Amelia asked for not only money but also some specific items to assist in the location spell."
Riser pondered for a moment, his mind already plotting strategies. "Tell her that assistance won't be a problem. Ensure she receives everything she needs to strengthen the spell."
Yubelluna, demonstrating unwavering loyalty, bowed deeply. "Your order will be fulfilled, Riser Sama." With that promise, she withdrew to organize the necessary resources and fulfill the witch's requests.
Once Yubelluna left the room, Riser took the summoning card from his inventory and threw it on the floor with determination. A bright light illuminated the entire space, and from within the card emerged a female figure. The newly summoned one had short dark hair, wore glasses, and displayed a pendant with an inverted cross.
The metallic voice of the system resonated in Riser's mind, congratulating him on the successful summoning of Shizuku Murasaki. Then, the system provided a brief description of the newcomer.
"Shizuku is a member of the Phantom Troupe, an infamous gang of thieves with class A bounties. Her physical strength ranks twelfth in the group, and she is eighth in terms of overall ranking. As for her powers, Shizuku has the ability to materialize a super-powerful vacuum cleaner named Blinky. Essentially, Blinky can vacuum up any inanimate object limitlessly, thanks to the infinite space inside the vacuum."
Riser, observing the newly summoned Shizuku Murasaki, asked with curiosity, "What am I to you, Shizuku? And what do you remember from your life before coming here?"
Shizuku, with a determined expression, answered without hesitation, "You are my master, Riser Sama. I remember everything from my experiences in another world, but that doesn't matter. My only goal now is to follow your orders."
Impressed with Shizuku's expressed loyalty, Riser smiled satisfactorily. "Great. Come closer, Shizuku."
As she approached, Shizuku awaited her master's next instructions. Riser then decided to go further and, with ceremonial gestures, placed two evil pieces into Shizuku, turning her into his newest pawn.
Time Skip 2 hours
Yubelluna entered the room accompanied by a mysterious-looking woman, whom Riser immediately identified as Amelia, the human witch. Amelia greeted Riser respectfully, expressing that everything was ready to perform the location spell.
Riser nodded approvingly, acknowledging the efficiency of his team. He then turned to Yubelluna and announced, "Shizuku is now part of my Peerage, Yubelluna. Ensure she fits in well."
Shizuku, newly integrated into the group, greeted Yubelluna with courtesy, and Yubelluna returned the greeting, establishing a solid foundation for cooperation between the two.
Amelia began preparing the spell, guiding Riser through the procedure. "You just need to imagine the person's face and say their name out loud." Riser nodded, focusing his mind on the image of Asia Argento.
"Asia Argento," Riser said aloud, and immediately, a hologram of Earth appeared before them, pointing to Italy. Amelia explained, "You're lucky. This girl is far from the Vatican, or it would be nearly impossible for a demon to go there."
Amelia provided the exact location to Riser, who, after obtaining the desired information, gestured to Shizuku. Quickly, Shizuku summoned her vacuum, delivering a precise blow to Amelia's head. Checking that Amelia was dead, Shizuku vacuumed the witch's body along with all the items related to the spell from the room.
Riser, observing the efficiency of his team and the success of the operation, smiled satisfied.
Riser, Yubelluna, and Shizuku appeared in the blink of an eye in front of a rundown house, evidenced by holes in the roof and an unpleasant odor lingering in the air. The surroundings were desolate, indicating the difficult situation Asia was in.
While exploring the house, Riser realized they should be in the living room but noticed the absence of a door. His keen gaze identified a space resembling a bathroom, while a closed-off area with a door caught his attention.
Riser opened the door, revealing an even more desolate scene. A girl lay on the cold floor, covered only by a sheet. The room was dimly lit, and the fragility of Asia's situation became evident.
Observing Asia's condition, Riser felt a mix of emotions, from compassion to determination to alter the unfavorable course of her life. He approached with care, avoiding disturbing the fragile environment around her.
"Asia Argento," Riser called gently, trying to awaken the young girl.
Asia woke up frightened, her eyes widening upon encountering unfamiliar faces. Riser approached her calmly, reassuring her: "Don't worry, we don't intend to hurt you."
With a confused expression, Asia asked, "Who are you?"
Riser introduced himself, indicating Yubelluna and Shizuku. He explained that he would like to take her to a better home and suggested that she become friends with Ravel, his sister. Asia, surprised, questioned, "Friend?"
Riser replied with a warm smile, "Yes, friend. And there will be other girls for you to play with."
Feeling instant relief, Asia hugged Riser. With tears in her eyes, she whispered, "You must be an angel sent by God."
Riser, with an ironic smile, thought to himself, "If only you knew..."
