The higher-ups seem like they want to fill the Seraphs and higher-up’s seats in the future. So it seems like they will be asking powerful reincarnated Angels for those roles too. This is what my papa told me. He said that there’s plenty of chance for them to ask me in the future who is fighting on this land. If that happens I won’t have the time to start a bakery. For the Heaven. For the Church. And for our followers. I may have to give all my effort for fulfilling my duty then. It really is an honorable position but it will come with obligation.”

Everyone puts on a serious face at Irina’s words. ……Yeah, I did feel reassured at the peaceful talk we just had. But we haven’t fixed all of the aftermath of that battle which is now known as the War of Evil Dragons. The main forces of each factions has headed out to the very long battle against Trihexa and you could pretty much say that each force had lost that much power as well. So the matter becomes serious from here. Even the Heaven lost several Seraphs which were their core members and many Angels had died in battle. So even Irina would be sought for assistance from the Heaven from now on. That battle would definitely affect our path from here no matter what. Trihexa and the Evil Dragons that went on a rampage at the territory of each forces. They also showed up in the human’s world where they destroyed several islands, armies, and great nature. The casualties the human world received wasn’t severe as the damages the territories of the mythology factions. I heard that thanks to the works of God-class individuals of each forces that were giving their all in repairing and restoring of their territories the damaged territories are returning to their original state. Though it won’t be that easy in regards to the lives that were lost in that battle. The God-class that took damages are forced to spend a long time for their return. It was already bad enough by losing the leading Gods of each forces against the battle with Trihexa. Likewise for the humans. ……I wonder just how many lives were lost because of Trihexa’s attack. No, just how many humans lost their lives since Rizevim’s havoc……
Though people are saying the casualties we received was much lighter than what we expected for the worse…… I, no, we attained many things by getting involved in a large-scale war for the first time but we also lost the same amount of things. …..And the Rating Game World Tournament is about to happen under such circumstance. From what Rias heard in the Underworld the joint top brass of the tournament organising committee are Ajuka Beelzebub-sama and ———Shiva the God of Destruction from the Hindu mythology. This news spread like fire among each forces. The God of Destruction who never took action no matter what chose to be part of the World Rating Game tournament organising committee was something no one would have predicted. The tournament committee has already started gathering registration and participants. There are obviously criticisms. To start a game. A tournament in a situation like this. There have been voices about their intentions from many parts of the world. However there are those that had showed interest in participating right away from various parts of the world. This is what they said in the interview of the Underworld. ———This is a chance we can’t ask for more. We were given the stage where the legendary beings are allowed to clash head on officially. We do understand the criticism. But don’t you want to see it? The Angels and the Devils. Just which one is stronger? The Norse Gods and the Greek monsters. What will happen when they go head on? This interview spread among each forces and it stimulated the curiosity and the battling spirits of many people. The match-ups you could only imagine or dream about. It has become officially “approved” so the number of those who wants to see it are increasing. And also one more. The winning prize. This is something unbelievable so this also brought the curiosity of the participants greatly. Obviously the number of participants has increased after the announcement. Even we……are burning with desire at hearing that interview. I’m sure it’s the same for Vali and Sairaorg-san———
There’s a rumour that the tournament steering committee are planning to put some energy into the people by getting them heated up by showing them the matches of the upcoming tournament. I also heard that the money profited during the tournament such as ticket sales will be donated to the repair fund of all forces. What’s shocking is that the tournament fund will be coming from the pocket money of the Maou-samas, the Grigori leaders, and Shiva. I’m sure the money involved will have crazy figures but it will come from Sirzechs-sama and Azazel-sensei’s inheritance (the pocket money and inheritance will obviously go to the restoration of each forces). ……To send the money gained from the tournament to the restoration funds huh. If the higher tops of the Underworld that are currently being prosecuted for their crimes were involved, then it would be totally fishy. Though I guess I can trust this one since Ajuka-sama and others are working behind the scene. ……I ended up thinking about the complicated stuff. Uggh, I sure did get a weird habit ever since I reincarnated into a Devil. I feel that I started to ponder more compared to the past. Kiba then says it and changes the topic. “Well, right now the main issue is Ise-kun’s future……or more like the promotion since it will also be a major event for us too.”
“You are right. Who would ever have thought that he would promote to a High-class Devil within one-year. To be expected from the man I thought highly of. It sure is.”
Xenovia continues after Kiba by saying that. That’s right. The achievement I attained during the War of Evil Dragon——— such as beating Rizevim and defeating Apophis. Because of that the number of people that wants me to promote has increased drastically. The higher-ups of the Devils approved it and it was finally decided (the truth is there are talks about the members of our group that are Low-class Devil getting promoted to a Mid-class Devil). There’s going to be a High-class Devil promotion ceremony for me in the Underworld and I am currently receiving words of applaud and gifts which are being sent to my house from the people with high posts. The High-class Devil which I have been yearning for so much———. I will be given the right to create my own group. …………
……Myself who was in high spirits by strongly shouting out my lecherous ambition. “I’m going to be a High-class Devil and create a group full of girls and become a Harem King!”. What came to my mind when I fulfilled that ambition of mine was…..happiness which also came with the realisation that you cannot attain everything with satisfaction. ……I attained many things by coming this far but it’s not like I didn’t lose much because of it. Perhaps attaining something means losing something as well.
