C344 - Inner Voice: All Heroines Hear My Inner Voice
🕑 Added 2024-06-18 11:23:13 +0000 UTCThe crimson magic circle with the Gremory logo shone in a magnificent room.
There were many devils walking and talking to each other there and naturally the sight attracted attention.
It was Gremory after all, one of the remaining clans of the 72 Pillars and one of the highest ranked devil families in the underworld.
Rias was the heiress of that family, her arrival with her peerage made many devils in the place exclaim.
Unlike the original work where after breaking off her engagement with Riser, Rias' reputation was not very good and was not admired much just because she was the heir to Gremory.
Many of them at most only admired her beauty, many male devils were greedy for her body.
And that was it.
However, what happened in this world was different. Almost all the devils there looked at Rias with admiration and respect as if they were looking at her older brother, Sirzechs Lucifer.
Rias' current reputation was arguably comparable to Maou's.
That was because of the power she showed at the Youth Devil Gathering and Rating Game a few months ago. Eiji didn't know the details because at that time he was busy with other plots, he didn't even watch when Rias defeated Riser to break her engagement with the blonde devil.
Eiji wasn't worried back then because after everything he gave Rias, he was sure the girl would win.
Even so, the fact that he didn't know the details didn't change.
He only knew about the Rating Game where Rias fought Sona in a duel to show their power once again to the devils in the underworld and the people from the other factions who were also watching at the time.
—If I'm not mistaken it was to convince the people from the other factions to agree to the Alliance.
Seeing the power of Rias and Sona who were arguably no worse than the Four Maou. The leaders of the other factions didn't dare to underestimate the devil faction so they preferred to sign the peace treaty.
Although soon after that Greek mythology was kicked out of the Alliance because Poseidon provoked him and Zeus was angry at seeing his older brother die at his hands.
Eiji recalled all this regardless of the many stares that were directed at him. Many devils whispered "That's Rias-sama's fiancee!"
"Eiji Seiya is here!"
"Seen from this close, Eiji-sama is very handsome!"
"Demon King! That's the Demon King in Serafall-sama's show, right?"
"The two of them look good together."
"I heard he's also engaged to Sona-sama, I'm so jealous!"
"I wonder if I can join his harem?"
"Damn, it's that man, right? The man who got engaged to the heiress Gremory and Sitri at the same time!"
"Stttt! Be quiet, have you forgotten that man's power? It would be bad if you offend him. According to the news, not only did Poseidon die in his hands, famous evil gods like Loki also died in his hands!"
"Hiss!"
The female devils stared at him with nympho gazes.
As for the male devils? Although there were some who admired him, not a few of them looked at him with envy, fear and displeasure because he was monopolizing beautiful girls like Rias and Sona alone.
It seemed that not only Rias, but he was also famous among these devils?
Eiji sighed.
[Host, please stop pretending. You clearly know how popular you are in the Underworld, after all you showed off your strength a lot in the previous plots.]
Indeed.
Eiji didn't deny what Miss System said, but who was pretending? He didn't feel happy or sad about the comments those people made.
His gaze glanced around curiously.
"Did you hear that, Darling? You're very popular." Rias said while hugging one of his arms, she was not ashamed to show off her intimacy with her fiancé in front of the devils.
Even so, her gaze sometimes glared at the female devils staring at Eiji, making the women immediately avert their eyes.
"Put that aside. Where are we?" Eiji changed the topic while quietly enjoying the softness pressing against his two arms.
Akeno also hugged his other arm. Koneko looked at the two girls enviously, because she wanted to do it too.
Unfortunately the kitten gave up and stood behind them with Yuuto and Gasper.
"We are now in the capital of Lucifad, more precisely in the waiting room of the promotion test office. Devils in the underworld who want to increase their rank have to go here to follow the procedures before they can take the rank promotion test."
"Ah by the way this building is operated by people from the Bael Clan, Zek– Great King is the president of this place."
[Rias, you were just about to call the old man's name casually, right? Poor thing... Unlike in the original work, Rias has lost her respect for the old man.]
[Speaking of Zekram, has he already made arrangements for the girls? It's not that I'm impatient, I'm just curious.]
Rias rolled her eyes. It was true that she had lost her respect for Zekram because of their previous encounter where the old man was very humble to Eiji.
Even now if she wanted to, Zekram who had been shocked by Eiji's power and curried favor with him could actually easily pass her peerage members in the high-class promotion test and give them a certificate for it.
As for she herself who was already a High- Class Devil?
Rias knew, she could be promoted to the Ultimate Class because with her current power, she could say with confidence that she was no worse than her older brother.
There were also all her achievements in fighting the terrorists who were a threat to the underworld with Eiji and the other girls before.
This should have been enough to promote her and her peerage members if not for the fact that the devils still had to take a promotion test to officially announce their rise in rank.
However, Rias refused to use the quick way to instantly get a promotion certificate from Zekram.
She wanted to do it honestly and fairly.
Even if the people in the underworld should already know how strong she was thanks to her Rating Game with Riser and Sona earlier.
Isn't that good?
Still, Eiji dared to think of other girls while with her...
If she herself hadn't agreed to the man's deal with Zekram, Rias wondered what she should do to her fiancé who had given her so many green hats?
"Oh... so that's why there are so many devils hanging around here. They also want to take the promotion test?" Asked Eiji without knowing what Rias was thinking, Leme did not activate the feature to eavesdrop on the girl's inner voice.
It wasn't like he was going to do it all the time anyway, especially to a girl like Rias whom he had already conquered.
Rias looked around before saying, "Um... Actually it's not usually this crowded, after all it's not every day that the devils in the underworld come to promote their rank. Maybe it's a coincidence that there are more devils coming today."
"When I took the middle class test in the past, there were only a handful of devils and their peerage." Akeno said, her gaze fixed on the devils loitering in the waiting room.
"Looks like not everyone here came to take the promotion test, meow." Koneko said flatly but what's with the meow?
Instead of "Nyaa" like your older sister, you actually meow.
Eiji thought it was cute.
They walked towards the reception desk. While Rias was talking to the receptionist's devil lady about the queue number for her and her peerage's promotion test, Gasper who no longer had agoraphobia after being given a genjutsu by him suddenly pointed in a certain direction.
"B-Buchou, Eiji-senpai. Perhaps the reason why there are so many people here is because many of them came to watch the commotion over there."
Although Gasper still said with a hint of nervousness in his voice, Eiji didn't care and turned to the direction he was pointing.
Rias who had finished talking to the receptionist and the others were also doing the same.
In fact it was impossible for Eiji not to notice the commotion going on around him. He noticed it from the start thanks to his snake-sharp natural perception, but he didn't pay much attention to it before Gasper said so.
It was at the end of a hallway that was actually quite far away and located in the open side yard of the promotion test office.
The reason why there were quite a few devils who had come inside the promotion test office to watch the commotion was also probably because they happened to see the commotion from the street.
With his vision piercing through the crowd, he saw two people who were arguing loudly.
"It was your own incompetence that your heir status was stripped away because you lost to Sairaorg whom you previously mocked and became unstable because of it."
"Now you're suddenly blocking my way to hold me accountable? You want to open a private room with me to comfort your pathetic self? You said something unreasonable and disrespected me again, Zephyrdor Glasya-Labolas."
"Now that you've lost your heir status, what makes you think I who previously even dared to kill you when you were the heir dare not kill you now?!"
The words came from a beautiful young woman with long pale-greenish blonde hair.
The pink eyes behind her glasses looked extremely cold. She gave off a cold impression that was even colder than Sona when in her student council president mode.
There was killing intent in her gaze as she stared at the green-haired youth with pointed ears who was called by the name Zephyrdor Glasya-Labolas.
He must be the devil of the Glasya-Labolas clan. In the original work, there was indeed a small villain character with such a name.
But put that aside.
Eiji was very familiar with the woman's appearance.
The green-haired man had a very ugly expression, his reddened eyes looking even more insane after hearing the beauty's words.
"You're just a bitch! You dare to speak to me like that! You should be thanking me because I'm willing to open a private room with you! Although I am no longer the Heir of Glasya-Labolas, I am still Zephyrdor Glasya-Labolas! I'm a high-class devil! There aren't many men like me in the underworld and I know you Onee-san Agares is still a virgin and hasn't let a man touch you until now. Aren't we right for each other?! You want to kill me? Try it! I lost to Sairaorg, but that doesn't mean I'll also lose to a bitch like you!"
"You really think that way about me? Heh, disgusting... What a piece of trash... Fufu, you think you can defeat me? What a bad joke. Zephyrdor Glasya-Labolas, your already damaged brain got even more damaged after you were defeated by Sairaorg."
The beauty still had a cold gaze, the cold intensity and demonic power mixed with killing intent leaking from her body was getting stronger.
The weak spectators naturally retreated and took distance.
None of them took the initiative to call the security guards that the Bael Clan had stationed to stop the two from fighting.
Perhaps it was because of the plot? Even Rias who recognized the young woman as her childhood friend did not speak right away and only showed a surprised expression.
The blonde beauty prepared to throw an attack at Zephyrdor.
The latter was also ready to defend himself and fight with the hot gaze directed at her body.
But Eiji interrupted the young woman by saying in his heart. He asked Miss System to add the blonde beauty with glasses to the 'can hear' list.
Miss System: "It's ready, host! You can do it, catch her!"
"...."
[So noisy here, it turns out that the people arguing are the little villain Zephyrdor Glasya-Labolas and the beautiful female character from the original work... If I'm not mistaken she was a childhood friend of my fiancé, Rias.]
[That's Seekvaira Agares, the heiress of the Agares clan. Hey she looks even prettier than the novel illustration. Why is she here? There wasn't this plot in the original work, this fight should have already passed in the Youth Devil Gathering arc where Sairaorg interrupted them.]
[Now I see that no one, from the people watching and the security guards, wanted to stop the two? Rias, your childhood friend is in trouble. Aren't you going to go help her?]
Rias: Now that you mention it... Yes! I have to help her! Okay I'll-
[Since no one has come forward to stop the two, let me do it.]
Rias: "...."
She, Akeno, Koneko, Gasper and Yuuto saw Eiji push through the crowd and walk up to the two people who were ready to fight.
Seekvaira Agares was a little dazed and stunned because she heard Eiji's inner voice, her movements stopped which made Zephyrdor laugh because he thought she did not dare to kill him.
Zephyrdor thought Seekvaira was just loud-mouthed but actually soft inside, she actually didn't have the heart to kill him and might consider opening a private room with him?!
She was just tsundere... She must have wanted him to be more aggressive for her to reluctantly agree.
Zephyrdor: "What is this? You're so cute, Onee-san Agares. Of course, I see what you want. I see, hahahaha!"
Zephyrdor did not notice Eiji who walked up to them. He looked at Seekvaira's voluptuous figure covered in a fitted noble outfit with a short skirt with a more lustful gaze than before.
To be honest compared to her style at the previous Youth Devil Gathering, now Seekvaira was dressed up more beautifully.
This... Could it be that she had known all along that he would block her path here and intentionally seduced him?!
As Seekvaira said, after being defeated by Sairaorg, Zephyrdor's brain was completely damaged.
He was so narcissistic and delusional that he didn't realize now that Seekvaira wasn't looking at him at all, she was instead looking at Eiji who was already standing between them with shock on his beautiful face.
"You two are quite up to here. Are you really going to fight in this place? I advise you to stop."
"Especially you green-haired man, forcing a woman to open a private room with you is not something a real man would do."
Hearing the protagonist's words interrupted the villain who wanted to force the heroine.
The protagonist even looked at the villain calmly, there was 40% justice and 60% contempt in his eyes that were glancing at the villain.
Eiji was in his protagonist mode right now.
Rias, Akeno and Koneko opened their mouths slightly silently.
Seekvaira's cold face softened slightly, even blushing slightly. From the way she looked at Eiji, she seemed to recognize him and couldn't help but remember something in the past.
People watching the Rating Game, Maou Serafall, the restroom...
Isn't this man Eiji Seiya?!
His hair color was different from the last time she saw him, his eye color was also different, but his overly handsome face was definitely him!
And that voice she just heard inside her head, that voice was similar to his.
Seekvaira didn't know what was going on, but seeing that man trying to help her...
How could she not have a good impression on him?
