……And that happened to backfire today. Agreas is one of the sources of the Agreas territory’s budget. The current Arch-Duke was put between the two sides of the Agreas Tourist community and the army that wanted to set-up the device……looks like he will fall sick.”
……So the protection wall device was set-up late due to putting the amusement facilities as a priority……! No, each territory has their own way of doing things and I’m sure the Arch-Duke also was going through troubles. Even though he’s already stuck between each of the Maou’s factions as well as the Great-King’s faction that puts the bloodline as the priority…… It sure does seem like the person with the job of being the middleman will fall sick……
Sona-kaichou makes a posture of putting her hand under her chin as if she’s thinking about something. “……This happened before Agreas set-up the protection wall and the town nearby happened to have the assembly of the Magicians they are after. The barrier that covers only this town and Agreas…… I can’t let it slide as a coincidence. ……It scares me since it feels like there’s something behind all of this.”
Looks like Kaichou is starting to have doubts. We are really lucky Kaichou is with us since Azazel-sensei isn’t here right now. One of the members of staff enters the staffroom while we are having a discussion about the enemies’ objectives. He opens the door violently and is breathing hard. “……Did something happen?”
Rias asks while finding it suspicious. The staff member points his finger up after he starts breathing normally. “—A vision has appeared in the sky.”

All of us came out to the school ground at once. When we look up—a vision of a crop that refreshes my mind appears within the whole sky and there are Devil’s symbols written there which reads “Please wait for a moment”. While all of us makes our stance after being alert at this, a mocking voice comes from the sky. [Eh? The broadcast started already? Seriously? Hold on a sec~. This old man right here still hasn’t eaten his meal. But you are still telling me to appear? Fine, fine.] ……A familiar voice. I can only come up with one guy who has an easy-going attitude like this. I guess the other Gremory group members besides me also realised it after hearing this voice, so they look towards the sky with eyes filled with hatred. The heart refreshing vision changes and a silver-hair middle-aged man appears in the sky. —Rizevim Livan Lucifer! He starts talking while making a wink. [Ncha♪ Uhyahyahyahyahyahya! It’s everyone’s idol, the old man Rizevim☆. Hi there everyone, or long time no see! I guess terrible things are happening to all of you, so I decided to personally explain the situation since it will be weird if there isn’t one! You know how the scene where your enemy explains the situation to you is one of the most common cliché?] He sure is an old man that gets on your nerves. I’m getting goosebumps and my hatred is building simply from hearing the way he talks. [I’m sure all of you have kinda realised it, anyway, the truth is we covered this whole region with a barrier! Oh my, I’m sorry for surprising all of you from the get go!] He doesn’t even feel bad about it despite saying that and is simply putting on an evil smile. [The one who did that is one of our allies, Ladon-san from the Evil Dragon’s Army! He’s the guardian of the golden apple that was killed by the hero, the First-Gen Heracles!] A giant creature appears behind him. ……A dragon-shaped tree……no, is it a Tree Dragon? The Evil Dragon Ladon which is giving out an evil aura. ……They are continuing to resurrect the legendary Evil Dragons…… We still haven’t defeated a single one of them yet! [Well, like always, we resurrected it and turned it into a regeneration monster with our key item, the “Holy☆Grail”. The protection walls and barriers he uses have a severe defence. And also, with the help of Euclid-kun’s Longinus, we were able to cover the whole region!] Euclid who is besides Rizevim appears on the vision. He has the Holy Grail in his hand. “…………!”
Gasper who is standing next to me is biting his teeth hard while his eyes are giving a dangerous glow. This vision must be something hard to endure for him right now. [And to all the people in that town! We have also put barrier around that town while sealing away the famous Magician’s magic. The one who sealed it is called the Evil Dragon amongst Evil Dragons! Aži Dahāka-san who can use a thousand magic! And the way he used his power was also magnificent! Of course the power of it has been enhanced by the use of replica Boosted Gear!] Another giant Dragon appears behind Rizevim. The three-headed Dragon. ……I can tell he has a dense and evil aura even from this vision. ……I heard that he is called equal to that Crom Cruach, right? I heard that he still went towards the Vali-team even with a bloody body due to their attack. ……To be honest, he’s a Dragon I don’t want to fight head on. Rizevim continues happily. [Now then, that place has been completely shut away from the outside world along with time, so the people outside haven’t realised it. The combo between the Evil Dragons and the Longinus sure is amazing~!] After he makes an annoying laugh, he shrugs his shoulders. [Why did I do this, you ask? The reason is simple♪. Since the Magicians over there didn’t cooperate with us, we’ve decided to blow them away altogether since it seems like they will get in our way!] So they will just crush them if they can’t abduct them, huh. The way he does things is childish rather than being aggressive! [Also, it will save us the trouble if we can steal a bit of Agreas’s technology! That’s because my papa and others were the ones that made them~. Don’t you think it is normally a thing I should inherit since I’m his son? Hey, don’t you think so?] Rizevim narrows his eyes and points his finger at us. [Uhyahyahyahya, I’m sure the D×D team which was formed to defeat us are over there too, right? Oh, we already received information about it beforehand. It does seem interesting, so shall we have a match? The armies of mass-produced Evil Dragons and the legendary Evil Dragon-sama will head over there—as well as the sky city. —In order to crush it. So try to stop them. Hey, really, try to stop them.] Rizevim clicks his fingers. That instant, many giant purple fire pillars start to grow around the town! What the heck is that!? Why are there so many fire-pillars appearing!? “—Purple flame. An opponent who is hard to deal with sure did appear.”
When I look around after hearing a familiar voice—I witness Gondur-san. Looks like she came here from the assembly hall. Gondur-san looks up at the giant purple fire pillars with disgusted eyes. The fire pillar has the shape of a cross. “……This is the “Incinerate Anthem”!”
Rias shouts as she looks up at the fire pillar. …...”Incinerate Anthem”! The Longinus possessor who is affiliated with the Maverick Magician’s group, “Hexennacht”! Gondur-san then says.
