"Cheers!"
In the Governor's Office, led by Ayato, all the servants raised their drinks.
After clinking glasses,
Amidst the crisp sounds, the atmosphere gradually became lively.
"Today, over thirty countries have expressed their willingness to join our Devil Federation to create a peaceful world."
Euphemia bowed deeply: "Thank you, everyone."
The so-called Devil Federation was a name Ayato had casually come up with.
The first countries to join were only the unconditionally surrendering Britannia and the Federation.
But after that war, countries had been joining in an endless stream.
"This is only the beginning."
Najenda shook her head: "The bad nature of human beings... no matter the circumstances, people will never give up fighting for fame and fortune."
This world was different from hers.
No matter how corrupt the Empire was, it was still a country with a unified will.
But because they respected Euphemia's wishes, the newly established Devil Federation could be described as having many factions.
There were probably many people with ulterior motives.
"Don't worry, it's a small matter."
Ayato smiled: "Those who make small moves, just wipe them out. There are plenty of upper-level corrupt officials to go around."
While it was called a federation, in the end, it would just carry out his will.
"Master is right."
Lihua agreed: "That's how it was in our Federation. After those high-ranking eunuchs died, the people's lives got better, so they naturally gave their sincere support."
"But this is destined to be a relatively long process."
Utaha sighed: "It seems we'll be busy."
"Don't worry, there's always a solution."
Ayato looked at Cornelia and said: "You find the candidates. I can develop a few more servants in this world to act as your and Lihua's right-hand people."
"Yes, Master."
Ayato clapped his hands: "Alright, serious business is done. Everyone, let's enjoy this party."
Hearing this, Leone immediately perked up and used magic to summon several large boxes.
Each box was filled with colorful bottles of alcohol.
"Haha, for a party, how can you only drink juice and soda? Of course you need alcohol."
Utaha: "..."
Oh no, some memory was attacking her.
Last time... something like this happened too, and the ending was...
"That's right, parties need alcohol."
Euphemia said excitedly: "I've wanted to drink for a long time, but my sister never let me, saying I was too young."
"But now, I'm a Devil. It shouldn't matter, right?"
"Euphemia." Cornelia was about to stop her, but Euphemia had already picked up a glass and gulped down a big mouthful.
"Haha, refreshing. Try this fruit wine. It's very sweet." Leone said excitedly.
With the two leading the way,
The atmosphere became increasingly lively.
"I, I've never drunk alcohol either. Let me try."
"Master-sama, I toast to you."
A few hours later,
The air in the residence was thick with the aroma of alcohol.
Ayato held a glass, taking occasional sips.
With his Campione physique, these drinks were no different from juice.
But some people were beginning to lose control.
"Hey, Esdeath, let's clink glasses."
"Haha, you can hold your liquor."
Najenda and Esdeath sat facing each other, the two who had known each other the longest, drinking like water.
"She-fox..."
"Lily..."
Erica and Liliana, the two who often bickered, were already arm in arm, like good sisters.
"Yomi-nee, you're too strict with me. You don't let me do anything."
"What's wrong with that? You still don't understand anything."
"Nonsense, I understand a lot. For example, Master..."
Yomi and Kagura murmured continuously, leaning on each other.
"Iris, being petite is what's cute, isn't it? I still think I'm so ugly."
"Really, Medusa, you need to have confidence in yourself."
"Really?"
"Of course."
"Wah wah wah, I'm so happy."
"Medusa, why are you crying?"
Medusa and Irisviel had already lost control.
And the other servants were really not much better.
Aside from a few who were already snoring, the rest were more or less behaving drunkenly.
After all,
The group of servants had been competing to drink.
As for the source of all evil, it was none other than Leone. She had even said things like "Devils can't get drunk, so don't be afraid".
Thus, the few who had just become Devils actually believed it.
"Sigh, I really wonder what will happen at this rate."
Artoria held her barbecue and sighed softly.
Ayato smiled: "What? Not drinking anymore?"
"Don't underestimate me. I was a king once, you know."
Glancing at Ayato, thinking of something, Artoria's pretty face flushed: "I have a lot of experience with drinking."
"It's getting late. I'll leave first."
With that, she packed a large bag of food and trotted up the stairs.
"Tsk, tsk, not easy at all."
Ayato curled his lip.
But no hurry. She was his. The only difference was when he would have her.
He was a polite Devil and didn't like forcing others.
Just then, Euphemia, already flushed and bleary-eyed, hugged Ayato's arm.
"Master, I'm low on magic power."
"Could you..."
"Of course."
Hearing this, Ayato smiled without any hesitation.
When it was offered to him, how could he refuse?
Hum!
The next moment, the light of a magic circle flashed.
"Wait..."
Cornelia, hearing their conversation, immediately widened her eyes, sobering up somewhat.
Just as she was about to say something, Ayato and Euphemia's figures had already disappeared.
'It's over!'
She couldn't prevent it after all.
'That foolish girl, had she already decided to throw herself at him, which was why she was the first to drink so heavily?'
