On this day, Leon and his group, as well as Rias and Sona's peerages, followed their usual routine. As soon as school ended, they used the magic circles in their homes to jump into the subspace, preparing for another training session.
However, when the three magic circles appeared simultaneously in the dimension and Leon and the others stepped out, they found that a guest had already arrived and was waiting for them in this subspace that supposedly no outsider could enter.
"Sona-chan~~~!"
Accompanied by a tearful, emotional cry, a figure pounced forward with terrifying speed—faster than anyone present could react—and pulled Sona Sitri into a tight hug, leaving everyone in shock.
Looking closely, it was an exceptionally high-leveled beautiful girl.
She didn't possess a curvaceous, mature figure like Rias, nor did she have the slender, delicate frame of Sona that always exuded a cold sense of beauty. Instead, she looked like a beautiful girl who had stepped right out of a fairy tale. She was innocent and romantic to the extreme, surrounded by an aura of lively, cheerful energy.
Her looks were in no way inferior to Rias or Sona; she was both exquisite and cute. Wearing a high school JK uniform, she truly looked like a beautiful girl in the prime of her youth. One might mistake her for being the same age as Leon and the others—a high school student who might also be a popular idol, given how naturally one could imagine her dancing passionately on a stage.
Currently, this girl was hugging Sona tightly, rubbing her cheek against Sona's over and over again.
"Sona! My Sona! Your sister missed you so much! I missed you so much I almost shriveled up!"
Amidst the girl's deeply emotional cries, Sona Sitri stood there like a doll, completely frozen, unable to move a muscle.
Her expression was stiff, and her entire body was tense. Her eyes, which were usually cool, rational, and intellectual, were filled with unprecedented panic. Her agitation was visible to the naked eye.
"S-Sister?"
After a long silence, Sona finally managed to speak with great difficulty.
"W-Why are you here?"
Never mind Sona; even Leon's eye was twitching. He had a sudden urge to turn around and leave immediately. He had absolutely not expected her to show up here.
"Who is she?"
Many of the peerage members who hadn't met her before looked at each other in confusion.
However, the sharper ones—like Yukino Yukinoshita, Utaha Kasumigaoka, Asuna Yuuki, and Mahiru Shiina—immediately made a connection.
"Sona-senpai's... sister?"
Indeed, that was how she had introduced herself, and that was how Sona had addressed her. And as far as they knew, Sona Sitri only had one sister.
She was the strongest female devil in the Underworld, the only female among the current Four Great Satans, the one with absolute authority in diplomacy, a member of the House of Sitri who inherited the name of Leviathan—Serafall Leviathan.
"Y-You are Lady Leviathan?"
The girls spoke out in astonishment.
"Leviathan? Huh? What?"
Issei Hyoudou and Genshirou Saji, who hadn't made the connection, were profoundly shocked and let out series of exclamations.
"She, she, she, she—she is the strongest and most beautiful female devil in the Underworld, that Lady Leviathan?!"
Issei even started screaming.
The reason was simple: as a certified pervert, Issei had been looking forward to meeting this representative of the Underworld's female devils since the day he became one. After all, she was the legendary strongest and most beautiful. Issei had constantly fantasized about what kind of person she was, even constructing a mental model of her.
In his imagination, she was surely a charming, mature older sister with immense womanly appeal, a fantastic body, and a voice that made every word sound seductive. That was his ideal image of a female Satan.
Who would have thought that this legendary devil would be such a lively and cute girl? The gap between expectation and reality was simply too vast.
However, this was reality.
"Strongest and most beautiful is just how others praise me." Serafall held Sona tightly, like she was holding a giant plushie. Looking both slightly bashful and very happy, she said, "I'm just a cute, lovely Magical Girl. Don't call me Leviathan, just call me Levi-tan, okay?~~"
What the hell is "Levi-tan"...
Leon couldn't help but want to retort out loud. Though he already knew what kind of person she was and what her personality was like, no matter how many times he saw her in person, he always felt the urge to roast her.
"M-Magical Girl?"
Yukino and the others were left with heads full of question marks, looking utterly dazed.
It was Ravel Phoenix, the daughter of a pure-blood devil family, who understood this Satan's personality.
"Um... that's just Lady Serafall's personal hobby." Ravel gave a wry, embarrassed smile and said with some difficulty, "Lady Serafall is extremely fond of the Human World's Magical Girls, so she always refers to herself as one."
Hearing this, the crowd was momentarily speechless.
Liking Magical Girls? What kind of childish hobby was that? Could a Satan really have such a hobby and call herself that? Are we sure this doesn't damage the reputation of the Devil Race? Everyone was roasting her frantically in their minds.
"It has been a long time, Lady Serafall."
At this point, Rias stepped forward and bowed respectfully to greet Serafall. Seeing this, the others finally snapped out of it and hurriedly followed suit, greeting the sudden arrival of the Satan.
"Long time no see, Rias!~~"
Serafall greeted Rias with a beaming smile, lacking any of the haughty air of a Satan. Instead, her voice was cloyingly sweet, very much like a cheerful older sister from next door.
"Sister! You still haven't said why you are here!"
Sona Sitri finally broke out of her frozen state. She began to struggle while demanding an answer.
"Big sister came to see Sona-chan, of course!" Serafall refused to let go, easily restraining a high-class devil of considerable strength with her delicate hands. She puffed out her cheeks and said huffily, "Honestly, Sona-chan, you know big sister loves you the most, but you never contact me. I had to take this chance to come to the Human World just to see you!"
Serafall had indeed wanted to come to the Human World for a long time. Over the recent period, her beloved younger sister had been caught up in terrorist attacks twice, encountering life-threatening dangers multiple times. Whether it was the raid by the Old Satan Faction or Kokabiel's recent attack, the targets had been the sisters of the Satans—Rias and Sona.
Knowing her sister had faced such danger twice, how could Serafall sit still? If she couldn't just abandon her duties as a Satan, she would have run to the Human World long ago to check on her precious sister.
Now, with the Three-Way Summit about to begin, Serafall, as the diplomat for the Devil side, had confirmed her attendance. Having finally found an excuse to come to the Human World, her first priority was naturally to see her adorable sister.
As for how she entered this subspace, that wasn't even an issue. This dimension was prepared by the Satans led by Sirzechs for Leon and the others to use. If outsiders couldn't get in, did that mean the creators and initiators couldn't?
Thus, Serafall arrived and waited for Sona. However, Sona clearly didn't want to see her embarrassing sister.
"Didn't I just contact you recently?" Sona looked like she had swallowed a fly, feeling as though her dignity was crumbling in front of her peerage. She said sternly, "Also, how many times have I told you? I'm not a child anymore! Don't add '-chan' to my name, it's too frivolous!"
"How could it be?" Serafall kept her cheeks puffed out as if refusing to back down. "That is my term of endearment for you! When people hear it, they'll know how close we sisters are, making everyone envious!"
"W-Who would be envious? Please stop making up these weird scenarios!" Sona struggled again. "And you should let go of me now, Sister!"
"No! Sister will never let go of Sona-chan! I won't let go for the rest of my life!"
"Stop saying such weird things, Sister!"
"These aren't weird things! This is a legal way for a sister to express her love for her sibling!"
The two sisters began to bicker right in front of everyone. One held on tight, practically hanging off the other, while the other struggled forcefully, her face flushed with a mix of shame and annoyance.
To be fair, the sight of two beautiful girls clinging to each other was quite pleasing to the eye. Issei Hyoudou and Saji's eyes lit up, their gazes fixed intently on the scene. The two of them were practically screaming in their hearts: Go further! It's okay to go even further!
Just as Issei and Saji were cheering internally, someone couldn't take it anymore.
Thump!
Gah!
Koneko Toujou buried a fist into Issei's gut, causing him to double over and gag.
"What are you looking at, Saji?"
Tsubaki Shinra also delivered a sharp smack to the back of Saji's head, sending him face-first into the dirt.
"...Perverts are the worst."
Koneko stepped on Issei's head, burying him into the ground as well.
"Ahaha..."
Yuuto Kiba had turned around as soon as Serafall and Sona started their antics. Hearing the commotion behind him, he could only offer a bitter smile.
As for Leon, he watched quite openly. The women present didn't stop him—and didn't dare to stop him—leaving him feeling like giving a critique.
If this is the kind of thing you're showing me, I'm wide awake!
That was what Leon wanted to say. Even if he didn't say it, seeing him watch with such relish, Yukino and the others looked at him with disdain, likely cursing him in their hearts.
Perhaps because Leon's gaze was too blatant, Serafall finally noticed his presence.
"Ah—!"
The moment the sole female Satan of the Underworld saw Leon, she looked as if she had spotted her arch-nemesis. She let out a loud cry, dashed over, and planted her hands on her hips in front of him.
"You annoying guy, you really are here too!"
Serafall pointed at Leon and shouted. Her angry expression was more cute than intimidating. At the very least, those watching wouldn't think this self-proclaimed Magical Girl was actually furious with Leon.
Only Leon knew that while the girl in front of him looked adorable and lacked any sense of majesty when angry, she was truly capable of lethal force. Due to her jealousy regarding the intimacy between Leon and Sona, this female Satan had played some dirty tricks on Leon in the past, which was why Leon wanted to leave the moment he saw her.
But escaping was impossible. Even if he had run at the start, he likely would have been caught. The being in front of him calling herself a Magical Girl was actually a Super-Devil class powerhouse. According to Sona, she was the kind of monster who could freeze someone of Kokabiel's level ten times in ten seconds—precisely once per second!
Even the current Leon, facing this veteran Super-Devil class entity, could likely only manage to protect himself. As for defeating her, he was probably still a bit short. Therefore, Leon wisely gave up on running and put on a smile that was so fake it was painful.
"Hello, Lady Serafall. It truly has been a long time..."
The greeting was as perfunctory as it could possibly be.
"Humph! Levi-tan didn't want to see you at all!" Serafall snorted. "You despicable villain who wants to kidnap my Sona! Don't think I can't do anything just because you're hiding here. No matter where you go, wherever my Sona is, I will be there!"
"Yes, yes, you two are the closest." Leon said, half-roasting and half-dismissing her. "Being called a villain by a female Satan... people who didn't know better would think I'd committed some heinous crime."
"And haven't you?" Serafall said righteously. "Following my Sona around all day, isn't that heinous enough?"
"Don't talk about me like I'm a stalker, okay?" Leon's lip twitched as he said speechlessly, "Besides, I don't follow Sona around all day, do I?"
"I don't believe you!" Serafall said bluntly. "My Sona-chan is so cute that even I want to follow her around all day. How could a bad man like you not want to?"
...Is it possible that you're worse than me? Leon didn't even want to argue anymore.
