Although there were many onlookers, very few people offered alms.
After all, they were grown adults; they could earn money by working a few hours of odd jobs, but unfortunately, both of them were practically helpless in daily life.
At this moment, Xenovia felt that rather than starving to death, it would be better to directly attack the Fallen Angel's base and die in battle.
Perhaps it was a warrior's intuition.
Xenovia noticed a different kind of gaze and then looked in one direction, her body stiffening.
Ye Xiao was seen holding a camera, filming with a smile, while Toujou Koneko looked at Ye Xiao as if he were a pervert.
Koneko suddenly missed her old Onii-chan.
Unlike Toujou Koneko's thoughts, Xenovia suddenly wondered if she should just silence the devil in front of her, but she couldn't defeat him.
So she poked Irina Shido, who had entered a trance-like state, beside her.
"What's wrong, Xenovia? These people actually..."
Irina Shido was about to say something, but following Xenovia's gaze, she saw Ye Xiao filming, and already consumed by hunger, she felt her world collapse at this sight.
Seeing the two look over, Ye Xiao stopped filming, put his things away, and looked at them with a slight smile, saying,
"Yo~ The proud members of the Church are actually begging in the devil's territory, how extraordinary."
"By the way, shouldn't you be on a Holy Sword mission? How come..."
Ye Xiao paused, looking at the bowl in Irina Shido's hand, "Did the Church not give you any funds?"
Hearing this, Irina Shido's face turned red with embarrassment; she had used the funds to buy a painting.
She really wanted to say that the Church had given them money, but she was afraid of being questioned further.
And Xenovia, hearing Ye Xiao's words, glared fiercely at Irina Shido, then calmly said, "This is a trial given to us by the Lord; the Lord will protect us."
"That's right, this is a trial given to us by the Lord!"
Irina Shido said, then looked at Ye Xiao, "Or are you here to mock us?"
Ye Xiao spread his hands, "Who would mock you? I brought Koneko out to play."
"Mmm."
Koneko beside him nodded in agreement.
Only then did the two realize that there was also Toujou Koneko beside Ye Xiao.
Then both looked at him with the eyes of a pervert.
"Lolicon, devil."
"Hentai!"
Their words made Ye Xiao's face darken. Why did they have to speak such inconvenient truths?
But since they already said that about him,
Ye Xiao's eyes darted around.
Then he pulled out a large chicken drumstick, its meaty aroma enticing the two.
They involuntarily swallowed their saliva, their eyes following the drumstick, then Ye Xiao directly devoured it in one bite.
Instantly, the two felt their hearts break, filled with desolation.
Toujou Koneko watched this scene and grumbled, "A pervert with bad taste."
However, Ye Xiao paid no attention.
Instead, he looked with interest at the somewhat despairing duo.
"Want something to eat?"
"Yes!"
Xenovia nodded without hesitation, while Irina Shido looked at her friend in disbelief.
She was about to open her mouth to scold her.
But her own stomach rumbled.
"That's a bit loud."
At this moment, Irina Shido felt she couldn't face anyone. Feeling her body's resistance, Irina Shido lowered her head, tears in her eyes.
"Can I?"
Ye Xiao's goal was almost achieved.
"Of course you can."
"Too..."
Her words were cut off again.
"Is that how you ask for help?"
Looking at Ye Xiao's expression, Irina Shido's face turned crimson.
But Xenovia, knowing when to be pragmatic, decisively bowed her head and said,
"Please give us some food, thank you!"
Seeing her friend and her own stomach's rebellion, she also lowered her head and said, "Please give us some food!"
Ye Xiao nodded in satisfaction, having secretly recorded it all.
This secret, these past few days, he could use it to control them completely!
"Alright, follow me."
Saying that, Ye Xiao led the two to a place called—Devil's Maid Cafe.
This was Ye Xiao's own business.
"Welcome, Ma... Master~"
Mmm~
Comfortable.
As Ye Xiao stepped in, several maids came over to greet him. Don't ask too many questions; these were all devils from the Underworld.
A leading devil maid respectfully walked over.
"Boss."
"Hmm, are there any private rooms available?"
"Yes, please follow me."
Then the four came to a small private room.
Xenovia and Irina Shido felt a slight regret; this was simply falling into a devil's den.
Ye Xiao scanned the two with his Eye of Data.
"87 / 59 / 89"
"87 / 58 / 88"
These were their body measurements. Ye Xiao then pulled out two maid outfits.
"You... what do you want to do!?"
"You'll get food if you put them on~"
Ye Xiao smiled, then a large screen displayed the video of the two begging and pleading with the devil, saying, "You wouldn't want the Church to know you did these things, would you?"
Irina Shido and Xenovia looked at Ye Xiao in disbelief.
"You... you actually recorded it!!"
"I'm a devil, after all~ A little cunning is fine, so what's your choice?"
Toujou Koneko also saw Ye Xiao like this for the first time. Ever since he obtained the chess pieces, Toujou Koneko felt he had let himself go.
As a strong warrior, Xenovia quickly gave in. It was just a piece of clothing; it was no big deal, and she wouldn't lose a piece of flesh.
But Irina Shido, being a local, had heard about these things.
This was TJ!
Did the devil in front of her want to train them into his maids?!
She looked at Ye Xiao with a blushing face, "You perverted devil!"
"That's right, perverted devil."
Toujou Koneko also chimed in.
Ye Xiao rubbed her head and said, "I almost forgot about Koneko, you get a share too~"
That's right, Ye Xiao got his revenge on the spot, then looked at Irina Shido and said,
"You wouldn't want this thing to spread to the Church, would you? A dignified Holy Sword user humbly begging a devil."
"And as a warrior, do you want to starve to death on the way to completing a mission? You wouldn't want to be punished by the Church for not completing the mission, would you?"
Ye Xiao said with a cheeky tone.
"......"
"I understand, I'll agree!"
Irina Shido gave in.
The two, no, the three of them, including Koneko, took the maid outfits and went to a small room to change.
Irina Shido looked at the maid outfit in her hand, her face slightly red, then slowly put it on.
But Xenovia didn't know how to wear it.
Finally, with Irina Shido's help, she managed to put on the maid outfit.
Then the three walked out.
The tiny maid Koneko, cute.
The other two each had their own charm.
Ye Xiao immediately took a barrage of photos, then snapped his fingers.
"Serve the food!"
