While the Chat Group was buzzing with discussion, Ray was out and about. Strolling the city of Kuoh like a king visiting his domain, totally ignoring the presence of the Devils.
Naturally, he disliked walking and being carried around by his lovely daughter, Sirin, who radiates an air of competitiveness the moment anyone wishes to hold him.
It was sort of cute of her to worry that he would pay less attention to her if he keeps adding more sisters for her. But also sort of unhealthy for her to be romantically obsessed with him, who is her father figure.
Anyway, this time around, only Sirin, Sakura and Dark Sakura, Jack, Abby, Yue and Eva are coming along and also the 'pet' Shinobu. The rest are either unavailable or have something else to do.
The main purpose of this walk was to help the two newest additions to get familiar with the town.
Yue is dressed up in white frilly dress similarly with Eva except she had a white parasol umbrella. Meanwhile Shinobu wore a simple white one piece dress.
Ray could hear the envious chatter from the passing by teens, wishing they could be in his place or admiration of the adults or old people fawning over the group of cute young girls.
Just as they reached Kuoh Park, the legendary spot where many DxD world's events intertwined. Ray spots a certain self proclaimed magical girl peeking behind a bush with her butt comically peeking out from behind the bush quite visible from his direction.
Inside the bush, there's a head barely poking out with two leafy twigs trying to hide the face. Naturally, there's illusion magic placed too. But under his eyes, even illusions cast by the gods are laid bare before his eyes.
Sirin is the first to notice Serafall as she notices Ray stared in that direction. She, too, stared in that direction and saw the face poking out from the bush and paused.
"Satan Leviathan?" Sirin called out as the others turned to her direction too.
"Oh no! I was discovered!" Serafall said in a hushed tone but still audible to Ray as he climbed out of Sirin's hold and jumped to the pavement, much to her dissatisfaction as she glared dagger at Serafall.
For some reason, Ray doubted she was even trying to hide with how nonchalantly she stood up and dust herself before she stood up straight with one hand on her hip and another pointing at him accusingly.
"You! Why are there vampires with you? What is their relationship with you?" Serafall immediately begins interrogation. Although her voice is much more playful than serious since she is naturally afraid of offending him.
Ray stared at Serafall before turning to look at the three blond lolis and turn back at Serafall. He sort of figured out her purpose for appearing here and her persistent stalking since he left the mansion with his daughters.
Serafall is the Satan in charge of foreign relations and Kuoh is 'technically' Devil's territory under the lease by the Kyoto Youkai. It would be normal for her to be arranged here especially with his presence in Kuoh.
It all started in the early morning, when Serafall decided to patrol around Kuoh, given the presence of Ray in Kuoh and after Rias' upset mood upon her return after visiting Ray's mansion a few days before.
Serafall didn't personally patrol the town but instead had familiars do it for her while she as usual, went to pester her little sister, Sona. However, when her familiars spotted Ray and his entourage on the street of Kuoh, seemingly on a casual outing. She ordered her familiars to pay closer attention.
It wasn't until a while later did she pay close attention by sharing vision with her familiars that she noted the three blond girls. All three bore striking blond long hairs. But only one had crimson red eyes that is an iconic trait of a vampire race. The other two had gold and emerald green eyes. But their fangs are barely concealed and obviously in sight.
Serafall immediately alerted and asked if anything major had happened to the vampire clans in Romania but got a negative reply from her subordinates.
Recalling Ray's whimsical nature that even manages to snag Ophis as his daughter and the Youkai Faction's head, Yasaka as his wife and Kunou as daughter. She didn't doubt Ray had done the same. However, none of that is what she is concerned about.
In her mind, she thought Ray had probably barged into the Vampire Clans in Romania and abducted these three vampires. This would definitely anger those vampire clans in Romania and possibly attract the anger towards the Devils since the three vampires are now publicly walking on the street of the Devil controlled Kuoh Town.
But after verifying nothing major had happened in Romania, Serafall's panic shifted to intrigue and curiosity about these vampires. Especially the other two vampires with golden and emerald green eyes.
For the longest time, vampires always had red eyes with the exception of Gasper which is caused by his Sacred Gear, Forbidden Balor View. But other than that, some deviation might occur but never strayed far from the color group of red unlike these vampires with gold and green eyes.
As such, she went to investigate it herself which brought her to the present scene. Naturally, decked out in her Magical Girl uniform to appear less official and more casual in appearance as opposed to her usual business outfit.
Now.
Instead of answering her questions, Ray put on a serious expression. As serious as a cat's face could be before he said, "Miracle Levia-Tan, this look of your's suits you the best. I am tempted to keep you for myself. My own personal Miracle Levia-Tan. Or should I corrupt you into Dark Levia-Tan?" Ray shows a genuine contemplative look.
Silence.
A gust of wind blew through the silence, drifting a lone leaf between the two.
Then—
"Bwuh?!" Serafall spluttered her words and her face turned to the same shade of red as the ribbon under her neck. Her confident interrogation pose immediately faltered as she backpedaled a few steps in shock.
Then an angry shriek interrupts the two.
"Dad?!"
It was Sirin, her face flushed with the anger of a kitten with her tail stepped on. The look of betrayal and jealousy on her face intensified as her anger quickly turned cold as she hissed. "Explain yourself!"
Sakura on the side looked like she agreed with Sirin but was too kind hearted to scold him or too afraid to voice her thoughts out. But Dark Sakura is the opposite.
Abby didn't look like she cared and supported whichever side looked the most fun. While Jack as usual, staring at Serafall, thinking about how and where to cut.
Meanwhile, Serafall is dealing with an emotional turmoil. She is happy to be praised as cute in her Magical Girl outfit. She is actively trying to suppress her joy from showing on her face to preserve her dignity as a Satan. It was then she realized Ray had never turned his gaze away from her, staring at her very intently which made her face burn hotter until it became unbearable.
"T-T-This! A c-c-confession! No! Levia-Tan's heart is not ready for such a sudden flag!" She took a few more steps back and held her heart in an exaggerated manner. "No! Levia-Tan's heart is for my cute and adorable So-Tan only!"
Then in a quick series of actions, Serafall summoned a magical wand and swung it down. Before she vanished into an explosion of pink sparkles.
On the spot where she vanished, there's a single glittery business card that slowly fall to the ground that reads,
[For personal or emergency Magical Girl consultation. — Miracle Levia-Tan ♥]
Rather than a business card, it was just a personalized summoning circle pamphlet designed like a business card that Devils usually hand out to form contracts.
Before Ray could take another glance at the business card, a portal open and took away the business card which appeared in Sirin's hand which she crushed and set it on fire, burning it into ashes.
Seeing the uncharacteristic cold smile and barely open eyes on Sirin's face. Ray felt a sudden chill.
"W-Wait! It was just a joke…" His words unfortunately fell on deaf ears.
Ray gets dragged away through a portal while Shinobu chuckles at his expanse while Eva shows some concerns and asks Sakura if they should be worried. But knowing Ray's power, her concern isn't about his safety but something else.
"Ah, Sirin might have snapped. But don't worry. After Dad coaxes her, she should be back to usual." Sakura replied and then hesitantly added, "I hope."
