Ravel gazed at Kaiser, inexplicably nervous.
Before, it was for family.
Now, for herself.
The lure of surpassing Devil King—irresistible.
"Fine, I'll follow your lead."
Kaiser smiled, gesturing invitingly.
"Then, Master, this way."
Ravel's skin pinkened.
She took his hand proactively, leading from the hall.
Phoenix family—pure-blood legacy ran deep.
Even vase placements artistic.
Ravel guided while explaining layout.
Unknowingly, a pink room.
Dolls everywhere, adorably arranged.
"Master, believe it or not, I hold no hate."
Ravel cradled his hand, eyes earnest. "Feel my sincerity?"
Kaiser met her gaze, sensing carefully.
"Mmm…"
Feeling his stare, Ravel blushed faintly.
"Your sincerity… might need more proof."
Kaiser said seriously.
Ravel agreed without protest.
She'd erase his doubts with honesty.
Kaiser ruffled her hair; power surged.
"Master, what—my level rose?"
Ravel glanced out window, delighted.
"Peerage perk."
Kaiser answered gravely.
Explained briefly.
"Master has such great power?"
Ravel turned, eyes shimmering with reverence and affection.
Dazed, visions swirled.
Soon replaced by Kaiser's towering form.
"Neither devils nor gods match Master's greatness."
Moved tears fell.
[Phoenix Tears] activated naturally; Ravel frowned deeply.
"…"
Well now.
Healing treasure indeed potent.
Wasted his prior effort.
But time plentiful.
He wasn't one to quit halfway.
Lucifuge castle.
Living room.
Grayfia lounged, swinging legs, toes tapping floor occasionally.
Puffed cheeks. "Little Kaiser hasn't contacted me in ages."
"Enchanted by some vixen in the human world?"
She grabbed her phone.
Magic-crafted—cross-realm calls easy with human tech advance.
Then—a message.
"Riser dead."
"Little Kaiser's doing?"
Grayfia shot up, incredulous.
But possible.
That trash was Rias's fiancé.
What—jealous rage for beauty?
She dialed quickly.
"Little Kaiser, you really killed Riser?"
"Fia sis, news travels fast."
Kaiser one hand phone, other gripping ponytail, movements ceaseless. "No worry—Phoenix dropped it."
"Busy now—talk later."
Beeps.
Grayfia disheveled.
What was that background?
Chest tightened.
Little Kaiser with Rias already?
"No—Little Kaiser's diligent. Special training."
Grayfia clenched fist. "Definitely."
How else kill Riser in Phoenix castle so soon?
"Intense cultivation lately."
She nodded firmly. "Rias helped from childhood bond."
But she itched to teleport over.
Not yet.
Even if Phoenix relented, other pure-bloods would riot.
Busy times ahead.
…
Morning.
Kaiser stretched, refreshed.
Sensing movement, Ravel murmured drowsily.
"Master… ate too much, so full."
Smack!
Kaiser slapped lightly, leaving faint print.
"Up. Human world time."
"Oh."
Ravel rose groggily.
Yawned, showing remarkable resilience.
Short time, noticeable growth.
Soon Ultimate-Class.
After freshening, her petite frame exuded mature wife allure.
Informed brother about human world trip.
Then packed furiously.
Clothes alone—several huge bags.
Jewelry piles.
"…"
Enough for a mall?
Kaiser deadpanned. "Anything else?"
"No, Master."
Realizing wait, Ravel embarrassed.
"Fine. Let's go."
Kaiser grasped her slim waist; magic circle glowed.
Kuoh Academy.
Occult Research Club.
Kaiser and Ravel emerged.
Sensing familiar magic, Rias rushed over, spotting Kaiser.
Relief flooded.
He was fine.
Riser's death news worried her endlessly.
Now safe.
But seeing the girl beside him, she stiffened.
Worry unnecessary.
This guy—woman magnet everywhere?
Villa filling fast.
"You're here, Rias. This is Ravel—new peerage member."
Ravel curtsied. "Hello, next Gremory head. Ravel Phoenix."
Rias blinked. "Phoenix family?"
Expression complicated.
"Riser's sister?"
"Yes."
Kaiser candid. "Problem?"
Rias: "…"
She admired him now.
Audacious.
"Fine—you're safe."
"Haha, how could I not be?"
Kaiser smiled. "Phoenix matter—your brother handle?"
Though unafraid, Fia sis intervened.
Sirzechs's aid would ease pressure.
"Told brother already," Rias said. "Troublesome, but solvable."
"Good. Reward?"
Kaiser meaningful.
Rias flushed, glancing Ravel.
Together?
Pass.
"Visit anytime."
Leaving old school building, Ravel clung to Kaiser's arm, excitedly scanning streets.
"First human world?"
Kaiser curious. "This excited?"
"Hehe, was little last time."
Ravel beamed. "Human world changed so much."
"Master, shop with me?"
Reasonable request—granted.
Commercial street stroll.
Ravel curious kitten—everything fascinating.
Later, fully unleashed—trying all.
"This girl."
Kaiser trailed, helpless.
Less date, more babysitting.
About to catch up, purple allure caught eye.
Long purple hair cascaded shoulders.
Exquisite face, flawless porcelain skin.
Tall yet curvaceous.
Pink top outlined perfect fullness.
Cinched waist—no excess.
Purple skirt over perky peach rear.
Black thigh-highs traced ideal legs.
"Familiar… which anime?"
Panel check—glowing contract.
Whatever.
Encountered—recruit.
Kaiser veered toward her.
Seated Hitagi Senjougahara noticed.
Handsome.
Her type.
But no dating qualifications now.
No hesitation. "Sorry, not interested. No dates."
"…"
Kaiser speechless.
Preemptive strike.
Feeling stare, Hitagi frowned.
Still not leaving?
Harsher words might hurt.
Hesitant.
Then Kaiser spoke. "No rush rejecting. My job—helping people."
"Sorry, no need."
Hitagi refused firmly.
"Not so sure."
Kaiser smiled, deep eyes on hers. "As a devil, my wishes are precious."
"???"
Hitagi froze.
