As the night fell, the devil made his appearance in front of a dozen ruffians. Ten people of different yokai races were imprisoned in the cages around the ruffians. None of the yokai were particularly strong compared to the low-class half devils.
The devil of average stature grinned. "Lovely work, ladies and handsome boys. Make a civil queue please."
Grayfia grimaced as she identified the devil with short silver hair. "That's Euclid's butler, Vels… is my father involved too?"
"Your bro wants more slaps on his face." Asahi tapped Grayfia's back. "Come on. Don't think so low of your father. He isn't that bad. Euclid must be involved in some shady shit."
Grayfia nodded, still looking concerned. Euclid might be planning on revenge, which wasn't going to end well for him.
"Let's end this show first." Asahi made the ruffians unconscious with his aura before he stepped out of his stealth.
Euclid's butler Vels stared blankly at Asahi before he tapped his feet on the floor. A blue magic circle bloomed to life on the ground. He was coldly efficient in making momentary decisions.
"You aren't going anywhere." Grayfia froze the teleportation circles. "Vels."
If Asahi's sudden appearance shocked Vels, then a glimpse at Grayfia's face froze his heart with terror.
"M-My Lady, w-why are you here?"
Grayfia thrust her hand. Numerous magic circles surrounded the young devil. "Don't move."
The young devil knew he was no match for Grayfia. Raising his hands, the young devil shakily nodded his head.
Meanwhile, Ray went around breaking the cages. Most yokai hid behind one familiar kitsune. As Asahi stared into her eyes, her face turned red.
"So," Asahi said with a smile. "Anything you would like to say."
She was the kitsune Asahi rescued earlier, Tamako. Quite ironic for her to be captured after rejecting his offer earlier.
"...I'm sorry…"
"At least you acknowledge your mistake."
Tamako bowed her head. "Thank you for saving my friends. I promise to reach home safely now."
The ronins lured Tamako out by acting like civilians beaten up by their lord. She wasn't going to another trap again.
"Well, I'll check up on you later. We'll be going now."
Asahi grabbed Vels. Grayfia teleported the group to her family mansion in the Underworld. The maids tried to stop them, saying the young master was asleep.
"Move aside." Grayfia showed no sympathy and stormed into Euclid's room. The sight inside dissipated her rage and filled her with shock. Euclid was sleeping on a bed full of her clothes.
"This fucker."
Asahi spared Euclid last time since he was the last heir of Grayfia's family. Euclid seemed to have become a bigger siscon without anyone's intervention. This time, he wasn't sure he could do that.
"Who is disturbing me now?" Euclid got up and rubbed his sleepy eyes. He stared at Grayfia with wide eyes. "Onee-sama… Onee-sama! You're finally home!"
Euclid tried to hug Grayfia, but she slapped all the drowsiness out of him.
"Euclid, even the lowest of the scums would have learned something after the humiliation you suffered… you became worse."
"I-It's not like that, Onee-sama… I tried… I tried to forget you… I couldn't."
"Ray, bring Vels."
All color faded from Euclid's face. Ray entered the room, dragging an unconscious Vels with her telekinesis.
"Master, he was trying to run."
"It's no problem."
Asahi grinned and slapped Vels' face. It took four slaps for him to wake up. Seeing Asahi's face, he passed out again. Asahi channeled his lightning element to electrocute Vela. He used too much mana and ended up overloading Vels' nerves.
Asahi looked at Euclid. "Well, you can speak in his stead. Who gave you those rings and why does he want yokai?"
"I-I made them…"
"You fear that person more than me?" Asahi narrowed his eyes and cracked his knuckles. "I'll have to repeat the events of that day."
Euclid shuddered, unconsciously touching his face. "Someone came to me with these rings. I don't r-remember who."
"Are you kidding me?" Asahi raised his brow. "I'll do it myself."
Asahi shifted through Euclid's memories and stumbled upon one strange thing. Euclid certainly met that person when he was down and depressed. However, all those memories were blurry, almost unreadable.
'It can't be the Devil Kings. They are too arrogant to be this cautious.'
Euclid obeyed that person's words as if he was under a spell. He had delivered almost fifty yokai to a forest in Kyoto, all of them sharing an unknown fate.
Asahi spared Euclid from more questions, puzzling Grayfia. She had thought Euclid would get some punishment for endangering the relationship between Yokai and Devils.
"We will deal with him later."
After leaving the room, Asahi created a little fairy with his Life Creation skill. A fairy with top-notch concealment skills.
(A Fairy Ninja!)
"Keep an eye on the man inside the room."
The person might visit Euclid if they didn't receive the promised 'goods.'
"We're going to ambush that person?" Grayfia pieced things together and frowned. "Should I stay here?"
"No need. I'll teleport when my fairy finds anything abnormal."
"Hmm…" Grayfia nodded in understanding. "I don't want to face a threat like him myself."
She couldn't be reckless since she didn't want to put her child in any danger.
Asahi visited Lord Lucifuge. His secretary had bad news for them. Lord Lucifuge was in a meeting with the Great Devil Kings. Grayfia's mood sank as she didn't get to meet her father. Asahi couldn't help but chuckle at her visibly sad face.
"We'll do it tomorrow, I promise."
He teleported to Kyoto and flew to the forest where Euclid took the captive yokai. Other than the usual animals and birds, his Life Sense skill found no lifeforms. Despite the results from his Life Sense skill, an ominous feeling remained in his heart. Someone or something was lurking within the eerily quiet forest.
'Something dangerous.'
Even the Heavenly Dragon in flesh couldn't bring this feeling out of him.
'Klyscha, take the girls.'
Grayfia and Ray were forcefully teleported to the Stardust Garden.
(Be careful.)
Asahi triggered his Wind Elemental Form for maximum mobility and summoned Gae Bolg. As if sensing his presence, someone flew out of the forest.
A cute little girl wearing a black gothic lolita one piece. Asahi recognized the black-haired loli in one glance.
"Ophis?"
