I can’t do anything at all for this girl who is working really hard as my manager. Then Ravel's face becomes more red, and mutters very few words. “……T-Then, p-please pat my head……”
…………T-This is a request I didn’t see coming. “I-Is just patting your head enough……? Don’t you have anything else you want? You do know that I feel really grateful to you?”
But Ravel shakes her head to the side. She then tells me upfront. “I feel proud just being your manager. That’s why having you pat my head will allow me to work hard at anything.”
—! ……Yeah. Aaaaaaaaa! Sirzechs-sama! This girl is really a good child! Thank you very much for assigning her to me! I start to pat Ravel’s head while holding back my urge to hug her! “……Ehehe.”
Ravel responds by making a big smile. Yeah, I’m thinking of working hard from now on together with this manager. Then Ravel takes out the schedule list as if she suddenly remembered about it. “Ah, yes. After this, I will also adjust the work for [Oppai Dragon] as well. There are also many requests for me to show up to hold a charity event for the children who went through the shocking experience of the monster crisis in various areas of the Underworld, and that number has already exceeded the dozens—”
……She is so capable at doing her work that she isn’t allowing me to rest! “Did you check the ranking made by the association? From that shitty geezer Mephisto, everyone started to talk about it since the ranking for this generation’s youth Devils was announced.”
“Yeah, I heard that the youth Devils of this generation are a bunch of excellent ones and that they aren't comparable to anyone in the past several decades.”
“They aren’t even comparable and they are in a league of their own. Two younger sisters of Maou, the next heir of the Great-King and the King of Lion, the next heiress of the Archduke, the daughter of the new Vice-governor of the Grigori, Sekiryuutei of the Heavenly Dragon, Holy-demonic sword, the Durandal wielder, and the host of the Dragon-King Vritra. Just listing them up frightens me. Even the other group members are monsters.”
“Of course the association will come together to give them the documents to make a pact with them.”
“……The spell casters from the Khaos Brigade did say this. That the leaders who got involved with them were taken down and their organisation was almost forced into disbandment. –But we are still going through with it, right?”
“Yeah. Since we received the request from the Khaos Brigade that you mentioned about, we will also go along with it. I hear that the spell casters from their side are also willing to do this. After all, just getting the Phoenix will be boring.”
“The level of their strength. Boss-lady Shien is looking forward to our impression about them.”

Using your head is fine, but having to train your body is also the harsh reality of being a part of the Gremory group. Besides the selection of the resume of the magicians and the job of a Devil, we, the Gremory group plus Irina changed into our jerseys, and are continuing to train in the battlefield located underground the Gremory’s territory. We are training in two groups within this spacious battlefield. In this location there are the warrior-types that consists of me, Kiba, Xenovia, and Irina. My mock battle for today, which was my match against Kiba, ended just now. Kiba who has attained different types of demonic-swords including Gram and who is also using dragon-slayer holy-demonic swords is starting to become an opponent who is hard to take on with my normal Balance Breaker. It would have been easier if I could wear my crimson armour. ……Ddraig has increased the time he needs to sleep since the battle with Cao Cao. There are times when he doesn’t respond for a whole day. And currently I’m in a state where I can’t promote to use Triaina and true [Queen]. According to Azazel-sensei,
“He must have used too much of his power to revive you. It’s a body given from Great-Red’s flesh with Ophis’s power added to it, so you can’t calculate how hard he worked for it. His soul didn’t wear down nor did he lose his power, but his exhaustion must be really bad. He will probably sleep longer for a while, so let him sleep without stimulating him.”
That’s what he said. ……My partner, the Heavenly Dragon who used a lot of his power to resurrect me. Ddraig doesn’t have a body, and he is in a state where only his soul remains. Even so, he did all that for me…… I just can’t thank him enough. If having a sleep will bring Ddraig back to his old self, then I want him to take a rest. Though, do come back before strong foes appear. An opponent whom I may need to use my Triaina and true [Queen] against may appear. I’m just worried that I won’t be able to give my all in terms of battle since those who appear in front of me are getting stronger and stronger……
When I was drinking a sports drink after finishing the battle, Kiba appeared within my sight. He’s staring at Gram. He says this after taking a breath. “……Like I thought, finding the right time to use Gram is hard.”
“Is it a level where even you find it hard?”
When I ask, Kiba narrows his eyes. “It also has to do with the technical part. Either way, the consumption is really bad. Just swinging this drains a lot from my stamina, demonic-power, and other departments. If I use it continuously for one single battle, it probably will also trim down my life. It certainly is a master piece fitting to be called the demonic-sword of the Emperor.”
That bad huh. Certainly, Kiba who is using Gram looks like he is searching for a way to use it. Though the pressure I’m getting from Gram, which is a dragon-slayer, is insane! Just standing in front of it when he isn’t wielding it gave me the chills. Even now, just looking at it from here when he isn’t making a stance with it makes me sweat a lot. That’s how much the trait of dragon-slayer of that demonic-sword is a deadly poison for me. I just can’t stop but feel the killing intent that sword has towards me. It isn’t Kiba’s will. I can feel the will of that sword with my own skin. Just having it near me will have an effect, so Sensei gave an order to Kiba to have him put it in a different space during usual times. Kiba makes the space at the tip of his right hand distorted, and he puts Gram inside it. It’s the same logic behind how Xenovia keeps Durandal in another space. I hear that Kiba also puts each of the demonic-swords he took from Siegfried inside it. “I wonder how that bastard Siegfried was able to use it.”
When I ask, Kiba answers. “No, I think that was also the reason why he couldn’t use Gram to the fullest that easily. I think the only reason he couldn’t use it to the fullest was because of the dragon trait of his Sacred Gear. You need determination to use this. I’m not Xenovia, but if I have to use it, then it will be when I have to finish someone off with a single strike.”
“How about the other demonic-swords?”
“They all are good demonic-swords.
