Chapter 169: Chapter 169: Unexpectedly Cooperative
The next day.
The day of the experiment had arrived.
Denji was brought to the lab by the scientists specifically in charge of the experiment, and Kotone Asaba followed along as well.
A place as important as the lab naturally did not allow ordinary people to enter, but Kotone Asaba was no ordinary person. In the eyes of the people at the experimental base, he was an important figure sent by the military, so they were all very respectful toward him and would not restrict his freedom of movement.
After entering the lab, the first thing Kotone Asaba saw was the Sword Devil’s heart. However, he did not immediately use genjutsu to control the Sword Devil’s heart. Instead, he planned to observe the situation first.
If the Sword Devil’s heart voluntarily merged with Denji later, then there would be no need for Kotone Asaba to use genjutsu. Naturally, it would be best if Denji and the Sword Devil’s heart could get along peacefully.
At that moment, Kotone Asaba looked at the Sword Devil’s heart for a while. Perhaps because he carried the aura of the Gun Devil, after all, his own heart had already become the Gun Devil’s heart, the Sword Devil’s heart instinctively felt a little afraid.
Seeing its reaction, Kotone Asaba suddenly remembered that he had forgotten about that.
It was not a good thing for the Sword Devil’s heart, which was about to undergo the experiment, to become emotionally unstable. That would increase the risk of failure later.
Although Kotone Asaba could use genjutsu to forcibly eliminate any risk, his principle was still to avoid doing that unless it was necessary.
Therefore, Kotone Asaba walked over and comforted the Sword Devil’s heart, making it clear that he held no ill will.
"I don’t mean you any harm. I only came over to take a look."
Kotone Asaba spoke in a gentle tone. "By the way, how have you been getting along with Denji? Do you feel like you two are compatible?"
He even started casually chatting with the Sword Devil’s heart.
"It’s... it’s all right..."
Although the Sword Devil’s heart was not as frightened as before, it was still somewhat restrained while speaking to Kotone Asaba.
"Mm, I understand."
Kotone Asaba did not say anything more, so as not to put pressure on the Sword Devil’s heart.
After that, Denji finished changing his clothes and came in mentally prepared.
At the scientists’ request, Denji obediently lay down on the bed and began undergoing the heart experiment.
Fear often came from the unknown. Denji knew absolutely nothing about the heart experiment, but he was not particularly afraid, because he knew that as long as Kotone was beside him, there definitely would not be any problems.
Kotone Asaba did indeed remain inside the lab the entire time, watching the experiment process closely at every moment to ensure that if anything unexpected happened, he could react and intervene immediately.
However, the experiment process was faster than he had expected. To be precise, the Sword Devil’s heart was very cooperative. Its efficiency was so high that even the scientists were surprised.
In reality, it was because Kotone Asaba was standing there, creating a deterrent effect on the Sword Devil.
It had been in contact with Denji for such a long time that it often heard Denji mention someone named Kotone Asaba, and from that, it understood that Denji and Kotone Asaba had a very good relationship.
So even though Kotone Asaba had not threatened it, it did not dare to be uncooperative. It believed that if it refused to cooperate, it would definitely be killed afterward.
At that moment, the scientists looked at one another. While surprised, they all let out a slight sigh of relief. This heart experiment had been completed smoothly.
Because he had been given anesthesia, Denji, who had kept his eyes closed the whole time, had not felt much of anything. He did not even know that the heart experiment had already ended successfully.
Only when a scientist patted his shoulder and called out to him did he suddenly open his eyes.
"Huh? It’s already over?"
