Even if God and the Maous don’t exist, we are still alive.”
“Well, I also like the current Maous, so I have no problem.”
…………The discussion of these two is at such a high level that I can’t understand it! Maybe they realised it, so Sensei and Mephisto Pheles-san stop their conversation and go into the main discussion. [I’m sorry for taking a long time, Rias-chan. Now, I will send the data about the magicians that want to make a pact with all of you through the magic-circle.] Saying that, Mephisto Pheles-san swirls around his finger from the vision, and points it to us. A new magic-circle appears in the air of this clubroom, and lots of documents come falling down from it! Akeno-san and Kiba pick them up. Me and the other members help move the mountain of documents elsewhere. There is no stop to the documents falling down from the magic-circle, and it keeps on piling up! When I took a glance, a document that seems to be a resume appears to my eyes. ……I can see their faces from the photo or the portrait of them. The other thing visible is……the entries written in a devil’s letters or magical letters that I have never seen before. ……This is a written document to appeal themselves! The other things written are their previous experiences and their households. This really is a resume! There are also many documents attached to it! Kiba says to me while I’m looking through the documents. “Putting the past aside, the pact that magicians make with a Devil now starts from having their documents being selected. The selection which will come after that will be selected by us.”
Document selection! Wow! For real? ……It’s like a job hunt of the human’s business world. “Instead of a job hunt, it’s more of a pact hunt. This is the mainstream right now. There was also an era where they fought to make a pact with a certain Devil first.”
Rossweisse-san says that while carrying loads of documents. So there was a war between magicians fighting over a pact with a Devil……! So having a pact with such a powerful Devil becomes their status huh…… It means that this will have a big meaning for their background. While I was thinking like that, we split the mountains of documents between us. The one who has the most documents is —Rias! She has mountains of documents! Sensei has an expression that seems to convey that this is an obvious result. “Well, obviously. Rias is the [King] of the Gremory group. They must have thought that having a pact with Rias will allow them to control all of you who are her servants. Since it is also a possibility where they can have a good relationship with the House of Gremory, it’s obvious that Rias will be the most popular one within the “Gremory group” category.”
It’s just like Sensei says. Making a pact with Rias will have many benefits. Sensei then continues. “For that reason, Rias will have to choose a partner very carefully and the magician also has to be very powerful.”
If it’s a magician that Rias will be choosing, then it definitely will be someone famous. —Then the one who has the second most is Rossweisse-san! Oh! Is it because she is a spell caster? “I see, on top of researching on their magic, they craved for the wisdom I obtained in the Norse and the information regarding the world tree Yggdrasil.”
Rossweisse-san analyses her value calmly. It means that there are many magicians that want to obtain the truth and the wisdom of the Norse mythology. I do hear that the Norse is one of the central factions for magic. So Rossweisse-san who is a half-God must have a big role. “A Valkyrie who is a Devil isn’t merely rare.”
Sensei also adds that. Certainly, that must be true. Now then, the one who has the most after her is, —Asia! This is quite unexpected…… No, if I think about it she has a Sacred Gear which can heal anyone, so it will be natural for her to get many offers. “……H-Having this many documents……are they really okay with it being me?”
Asia is feeling timid. She probably didn’t think even the slightest that she is being sought for this much. Mephisto Pheles-san then says. [There is a big merit in having the ability to heal. The power to heal is always one of the ultimate themes in whatever era or person. Making a pact with you and getting blessed with the power of healing. Using that to obtain fame is easily possible.] Yeah. There are people who are seeking for the power to heal all over the world. It can be a good business to make fortune, and it can be used for many trades. “Asia! Choose your partner carefully! Don’t get caught by a vicious guy! No, I will choose the person together with you!”
I’m concerned about Asia that I protect her too much. That’s because I’m feeling scared! [Well, they are the people that we, the association, picked, so there shouldn’t be any cruel people.] Mephisto Pheles-san says that…… I don’t want Asia to go through a painful experience……
“Don’t worry. Akeno and I will also consult with Asia, so we won’t allow her to go through troublesome trades.”
Rias smiles. If our [King] and [Queen] are there for her, then I won’t have to worry about it. I hope she makes a good pact. ……If it’s possible, I want Asia’s partner to be a female. I will be worried if it’s a bastard! The order after Asia went by: Me→Kiba→Akeno-san→Xenovia→Koneko-chan→Gasper. Gasper has the least. Sensei then says it after seeing the result. “Well, it was predictable that Rias who is the [King] would receive the most. The majority of the magicians think that they will be able to pull all of you out by making a pact with Rias. Rossweisse the spell caster, Asia who possesses the Twilight Healing, Ise the Sekiryuutei, Kiba of the holy-demonic sword, Akeno who is the daughter of Barakiel, and Xenovia the holy-sword wielder. These members would be nominated the most. Koneko and Gasper who still haven’t unleashed their own powers didn’t get solicited that much, but they might be magicians with higher quality rather than quantities. To begin with, a majority of the ones who solicited Rias and the rest could be thought of as small fry. Only very few numbers of them among these piles of documents are exceptional.”
Sensei sure knows how to say it. Well, I don’t think all of the magicians in these documents are amazing either. That's the reason why not many people choose Gasper because they haven’t seen his real powers? Well, I haven’t witnessed it either. Hearing Sensei’s words, Mephisto Chairman who is the chairman of the association—
[Hahahaha, well, the majority of them are small fry.] He is saying something like that! Is it okay for the chairman to say things like that!? [Even so, Sekiryuutei-kun who is popular in the Underworld and who has made meritorious deeds didn’t have that much of an increase for his solicitation as I expected. Even still, you were solicited a lot. Maybe the young ones from my side aren’t into the popular ones.] “The magicians take importance in their status, but more than that, they value how they are seen within the industry.
