Then that makes the bat being devils right……..? Then this skeleton changes his sights…….to me!? M-Me!? His eye socket glows. Welsh Dragon. It sure brings back memories of when you and the Vanishing Dragon were rampaging at the depths of Hell together……>>
……..He knows you? Ddraig? [There was a little something a long time ago.] I see, so a little something happened huh. …….It’s not something where his grudge will be directed to me who is the current Sekiryuutei right…? If the opponent is a skeleton, it’s scary because it feels like I will be cursed for real. Well, then. I will have myself enjoy today. You should hope you won’t die. I didn’t come here to take all your souls with me today after all.>>
Saying just that, the skeleton…..Hades, walks pasts us. I wiped the sweat on my forehead and took a breath. When I looked, it seems like the other members were also nervous, and were loosening up now. “……I did hear about Hades-sama from my senior back when I was a Valkyrie, but…… It sure doesn’t feel like you are still alive when it seems like he holds a grasp of your soul.”
Rossweisse-san mutters. Yeah, it felt exactly like that! The feeling of our soul being looked through! I see, so this is what it means to govern death…..is it? “…….S….Scary…… That Skeleton-san had intense pressure……”
When I said that, Sensei started to move around his neck as if he was stiff until now. “Well, yeah. His power is among the Top-classes within the whole major faction after all.”
“…….Is he stronger than you, Sensei?”
“He’s stronger than me, that Skeleton-geezer that is….. All of you, don’t turn him into your enemy definitely. Also Hades, but the grim reapers around him are creepy.”
Seriously!? He is a serious issue if he is stronger than Sensei and Sirzechs-sama! And his escorts being grim-reapers! It’s too scary! He definitely came up on the top list of “People I don’t want to encounter”. “So he is an evil God then…….”
When I said that, Sensei shook his head. “No, he just hates devils and fallen-angels…… Rather, he hates other kinds which are from the different mythologies. He is a God who confronts humans normally. He is a being who is necessary in the realm of the dead. But I hate him.”
Ara, he just clearly hates him. I also dislike him. That’s because the way he looks at us devils is hostile. I took a breath after having a scary encounter, then lively laughter echoes throughout the corridor. “Dehahahahahaha! I have come, Azazel!”
“I have also come, Azazel! Gahahahaha!”
Two good build old men with moustaches came and surrounded Sensei. Sensei also sighed with his eyes half closed. “……So you came, Zeus-geezer and Poseidon-geezer…… You guys are really hard to be with like always. It would have been better if Hades was lively and easy to understand like these two.”
Zeus and Poseidon! The moustache geezer who’s wearing no top, Poseidon-sama, is someone I met due to a certain case before. But the moustache geezer who was wearing a crown and togais someone I see for the first time. I see, so he is the legendary Zeus-sama…….! Such a famous God came running towards us! It sure is an amazing view! It seems like these two know Azazel-sensei, and they started picking on him. “Aren’t you going to find a wife, Azazel-bou!? Being still single feels lonely doesn’t it!”
“I can introduce someone! There are many great women in the seaaaaaaa! Gahahahahaha!”
“Ah~, you don’t have to worry about unnecessary things….”
Sensei is being pushed back! It's my first time seeing it. Hee, so there were actually Gods that Sensei can’t act too high to! Even if they are the same Gods from Greece as Hades, unlike him they are friendly. “I came, you guys.”
This time it was a voice I've heard before. When I turned around, there is a chibi-dragon floating in the air. I don’t know any chibi-dragons, but judging from his voice…..
“That voice, is that you old-man Tannin!? You sure have become small!”
“Hahaha, it will be hard to move around in my original size. I’m usually in this form at events like this.”
So he can become this small! He’s adorable! He’s like Asia’s familiar which is also a chibi-dragon. Old-man says it while looking at all of us. “The man you will be facing is said to be the strongest youth, but I don’t think all of you are inferior to him. So go at him with all your might!”
“Of course! Look forward to our victory!”
I replied to him with confidence. My tension sure does rise when I meet those I know at times like this! It seems like he’s cheering for us today, so it will be worth fighting today. “Ah! Odin-sama!”
Rossweisse-san made a hysteric sound. In the direction Rossweisse-san is pointing at….Odin the geezer was there! Odin the geezer shouted “This is bad!” when he saw Rossweisse-san and ran away from the scene! Rossweisse-san made a howl seeing that! “You are out of your luck meeting me here! Waaaaaaaait! This shitty geezeeeeeeeer! Who’s that new Valkyrie next to yoooooooooou!”
Rossweisse-san who turned into an armoured Valkyrie state went after the geezer Odin who ran away. “…….Ise, Yuuto, Xenovia, please. Go and stop Rossweisse.”
Buchou says that while making a sigh. It’s right before the match, but the hotel is getting livelier than I thought. We get guided to our own personal waiting room. Rather than a room, it’s more like a spacious floor, and there are table sets so you can take a break (Green tea, snacks), and even training equipment. It’s a place with everything available. Members who will be doing some exercise got changed into our jersey and have started to do some warm ups. If we don’t do some warm ups now, then we might not be able to unleash our full power for the actual match. So there’s still six hours until the game huh. We should use the remaining time for a light exercise and to relax. It happened when I thought something like that and was doing some running. “Pardon me.”
A single man entered the floor. It was someone who we know! What the! “Raiser!”
“Onii-sama!”
Buchou and Ravel exclaim hysterically at the appearance of that man. Yeah, that man was none other than Raiser Phoenix. “Yo, I’ve come. Looks like you are also doing well, Ravel.”
Saying that, Raiser sits on the chair. So Raiser also came to the stadium. It must be to observe our battle. And he’s already back on his feet. At one point, he hid himself in his room due to his shock at being defeated by me. Did he come to see how we are doing? I had doubts. The other members thought the same. Akeno-san pours tea for Raiser. Raiser says it after taking a drink. “I thought I would talk a bit about the match. Today’s game has the same amount of attention as that of a popular pro’s match. The fact is, the flow of the game will basically be the same as that of a pro’s match. Even the seats are being filled with viewers. You guys will be fighting under that. You might feel bewildered because of the difference with the real battle where there is a thing called entertainment involved. But, it’s such a big stage like this.
