…If my transcendent father really exists, he must be someone with supernatural powers and abilities fit to be my father. “Well, will you search for your father?”
Verrine asked that as she drank the sweet coffee that was almost like a sugary syrup. “Searching for my father, huh…”
Verrine realized that Balberith had understood something from the word just now. The land where the Asgardian Gods lived — Asgard. Vidar’s secret retreat sat in the outskirts of Asgard. In the living room of that hideout, Vidar was drinking alcohol, the new chief God of Olympus, Apollon appeared. As they sat facing each other, Apollon started
“Vidar, I hear that you are going to be married…have you become serious?”
“Nope, I have no intention of making Göndul’s granddaughter my bride, you know.”
The tipsy Vidar-san replied as he spun the glass. Apollon looked puzzled as asked once again
“Then, why?”
“It seems like that drunk Valkyrie’s relationship with the Sekiryuutei isn’t going anywhere, so I thought I’d give a little boost to the Sekiryuutei and the Valkyrie.”
After hearing his real intention, Apollon sighed. “What a whimsical thing to do.”
Vidar then laughed mischievously
“It seems like my father caused them lots of problems, you know. When you think about all of the people who keep bugging me to get married and consider [DxD], which of them is better?”
“Ha.”
Apollon laughed at his friend’s frankness. In short, the second generation Chief God himself picked up the role of being a cupid for the Sekiryuutei and the Valkyrie. “What’s with that scornful laugh?”
“I suppose the prodigal prince has finally become somewhat Chief God-like, you know.”
Vidar-san raised his voice
“I don’t want to hear that from someone who only pursues art like you. …It’s because my eldest brother Baldur went to the Isolation Barrier Field with my father, you know. I thought that I must succeed this role and not live freely as I am now. I don’t know if this is what they call the fate of Gods.”
“But, the battle is a different topic, right?”
Vidar-san who was spinning the ice inside the glass looked happy upon hearing Apollon’s question. “Yes, certainly. —Fighting with the Sekiryuutei is valuable after all.”
Yes, while it was true that Vidar-san took on the role of being a cupid for the Sekiryuutei and the Valkyrie, it was also a fact that he wanted to take advantage of Sekiryuutei’s passion. That was because the Sekiryuutei’s power was the one that would be felt more than anything else. —This God was also charmed by the power of the Heavenly Dragons. Vidar then poured alcohol into the empty glass and handed it to Apollon. Apollon said as he held the glass in one of his hands. “We intend to win, right?”
“It’s only natural that we would win.”
“Well, what will you do after winning the match? Will you be engaged?”
What will happen to the Valkyrie… If Vidar wins the match? Apollon was also interested in this. While Vidar drank more alcohol, he tilted his head in thought, and then said
“…I will find fault with her and return her to Sekiryuutei.”
And so that was the answer. In short, no matter if he won or lost, he had no intention of making her his bride in the very least. This man was someone who had no interest in somebody else’s girlfriend. However, the opponent that this man had his eyes on was the one who would suffer
“Hmm. That’s terrible, for both you and the Sekiryuutei who is at your mercy too.”
Vidar made a bitter expression in response to Apollon’s words as if he had a reason. “…I, do I look like my father? I don’t like that…,”

I became really excited and wanted to try to train there just by hearing the name of that seemingly interesting world. Anyway, would it be possible to ask Beelzebub-sama and Nakiri-kun to let me try to play in the original game? The idea of playing in a world as vast as the Australian continent with our own bodies seemed so fascinating! —And, after reporting about what happened at the ‘Ocean of Milk’…everyone made a doubtful face as if there was a question mark on top of their heads. Although…the story of me meeting the Chichigami was taken seriously. Well, it was because Chichigami did bless me with divine protection during the fight against Loki after all. Everyone had high hopes for the Longinus’ outcome that was released by stirring the Ocean of Milk. I mean, right now, I was sure that the key for the next match was going to be that outcome itself. In order to prepare for tomorrow’s match, every member of the [Sekiryuutei of the Blazing Truth] Team went to bed early after doing everything that had to be done. As I returned to my room and dove into bed, I wondered if I was going to sleep while burying my face in between Rias’ oppai—. “G-Good evening…”
The person who sat and was waiting in the bed for me was — Rossweisse-san! O-On top of that, she wore revealing lingerie… I was touched by her shyness as she tried to hide her nipples that could be seen through the revealing dress with her hands! There was no one else but Rossweisse-san on my bed. Usually, Rias and Asia would be here, sometimes Akeno-san too, and there were also times when Xenovia and Irina would barge into my room, but…
Since the proposal, they had been fighting over who would sleep with me, and the number of people who slept on my bed just kept rising. Often times I would also be on the floor when I woke up. It was mainly because I was kicked off by Xenovia who frequently turned over while sleeping though… And because of that, we were considering the purchase of a larger bed. …No, it would be pretty hard to find a bed that could fit seven to eight people! As expected, I think the most a bed can fit is four people! Personally, I think that three people sleeping next to each other is the best! As I thought about such things…I asked Rossweisse-san
“U-Umm, are Rias and Asia not here?”
Rossweisse-san nodded in response to my question
“I heard that R-Rias-san has things to do back home and she will be staying there with Akeno-san.
