"Master, my level seems to have truly increased."
Although she couldn't see her own level information, Chelsea was very clear about the strengthening of her body.
After becoming a Demon.
The strength gained in such a short time.
It was far, far greater than all her diligent training throughout her life.
"This is just the beginning."
"However, to become even stronger, it's up to you."
"Oh, I know."
Chelsea took a deep breath, the blush on her pretty face becoming even more charming.
A moment later.
She was immersed in the joy of becoming stronger.
[Chelsea]
[Race: Demon]
[Master: Alex Lucifergus]
[Level: LV27]
[skill: Stealth]
[Stealth: Reduces one's presence, perfectly eliminating one's aura.]
"She just went up one level?"
"Indeed, the lower the level, the faster the leveling now."
Alex was thoughtful.
If this continued.
He would become stronger and stronger.
It was likely that future Retainers would all ascend to greatness in one go.
After one time, it wouldn't be impossible to directly ascend to an Upper-level Demon.
"Oh my god, as expected of Master, to take her as a Retainer in such a way?"
"Alas, I lost."
"If only Master had been so gentle with me back then."
"You Fallen Angel, don't overthink it; dealing with a nasty fellow like you requires strong medicine."
Outside the main hall, numerous Retainers were chattering incessantly.
But very quickly.
Their voices came to an abrupt halt.
Because Alex's gaze had already turned towards them.
Oh, really.
Just now, they were making excuses, but now they're so enthusiastic about watching the show.
"Oh no."
"This is bad."
The smiles on Shiho and the others' faces had all frozen.
How did watching a play seem to get them involved?
Buzz!
The Magic Circle's light flashed.
Figures piled up like dumplings.
Chelsea: "..."
The next afternoon.
Alex returned to the Main World.
Old school building, Occult Research Club.
"You bad guy, you disappeared again these past few days."
Rias leaned in Alex's arms, gently raising her small pink fist and punching him repeatedly.
"Didn't you also know that I was in Other World?"
Alex reached out and pulled Rias's head closer, gently stealing a kiss from her lips.
He whispered in her ear, "Besides, didn't you say you had things to do and wouldn't come over?"
However, this was indeed a troublesome matter.
It seemed he needed to find time to research inter-world communication.
"Hmph."
Rias let out a soft snort, a faint blush spreading across her charming face.
"You have a point."
"By the way, when exactly do you plan to enroll?"
"This..."
Hearing this, Alex felt a bit awkward.
It seemed he had almost forgotten about this matter.
He wanted to say he wouldn't go.
But because of this, Rias had been busy for so long, so it didn't seem right to just stand her up.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Alex's eyes flickered slightly.
He saw that the [Demon Summoning] skill was flashing.
"This contract is..."
Alex's lips curled into a slight smile.
"Finally, caught in the net?"
Inside a somewhat dilapidated house.
Senjougahara Hitagi paced back and forth with her phone, her eyes filled with anxiety.
"Dad, where on earth have you gone?"
If he merely didn't answer the phone, she wouldn't be worried.
But not long ago, that woman had visited, which made it impossible not to overthink things.
That.
The woman named 'Mother'.
Ever since she started believing in that cult, she had completely lost her mind.
They had long since cut ties with her, but for some reason, she had shown up again.
If it was just to scam money, that would be fine.
Because they had no money at all.
She was just afraid that woman would do something crazy.
She rubbed her temples, then her expression shifted.
"I remember, I already threw it away, didn't I?"
She looked at the black contract in the corner of the room, feeling slightly puzzled.
"Could it be... a supernatural event?"
Senjougahara Hitagi's expression stiffened slightly.
"No, it must be some kind of prank."
"But what if it's real?"
She picked up the black contract, a flicker of hesitation in her eyes, which was ultimately replaced by resolve.
As long as she could save her last family member, even if it truly was a Demon, she would willingly dedicate everything she had.
Taking out a pen and signing her name on the black contract, Senjougahara Hitagi murmured to herself.
"Mr. Demon, can you truly respond to me?"
A glimmer of anticipation flashed in her eyes.
She knew the possibility was slim, yet she still hoped to grasp it.
She was at her wit's end now.
But very quickly.
Senjougahara Hitagi shook her head and laughed.
As expected.
It was fake!
She was truly too foolish.
To be so desperate as to try anything.
How was this any different from that woman who believed in a cult?
Just as she was thinking this, the black parchment in her hand glowed brightly.
A dark purple Magic Circle began to spin.
"This?"
Senjougahara Hitagi took a step back, her eyes wide.
"It seems you finally wish for my help."
Under her gaze, that familiar yet strange handsome figure came into view.
"Are you truly a Mr. Demon?"
Senjougahara Hitagi couldn't believe it.
