51 First Meeting, and Unexpected Surprise (2/2)

”Sirzechs kid, I am here for answering to your invitation.”

”Pleased to meet you, Odin-dono.” Serafall then greeted Odin in a ladylike manner that she did perfectly.

”Hmm, why the stiff etiquette, Serafall. Young girl shouldn't be wearing such boring dress.”

”Ah, then... *Mirurun MiruMiru Spiral*” Serafall looked surprised at first after hearing his words, before she then smiled a bit as she decided to change to her magical girl's outfit, to the pleasant surprise of Odin.

”Hm, what is the meaning of this dress, Serafall?” Odin asked her interestingly as he looked at Serafall in her Magical Girl's outfit.

”This is a Magical Girl's outfit, Odin-dono. How is this?”

”Ohh, it is quite nice actually! I may promote this thing to Valhalla later, hehe.”

”Jezz, don't look at her too much, Old Man!” ”Please keep your image, Odin-sama. You are bearing the name of Valhalla here.” Rafi's displeased tone and Rossweisse's admonishing tone sounded at the same time, surprised both Odin and Rossweisse as their attention turned to him in an instant.

”And here I am wondering, are you the one rumoured as 'another Sekiryuutei' huh? This world sure keep getting interesting.”

”Oh, it seems the news really travels quite fast right, Old Man Odin.”

”Your recent actions just quite flashy, so I don't think it is rather a secret for the higher ups, kid.”

”Well, thanks for the praise, eh.” Rafi grinned slightly after hearing Odin's words.

”Haha, are you not afraid of their retaliation, kid?”

”Hm, if it does happen, then they can come straight to me. I don't really care though. And, who is this beautiful lady?” Rafi said confidently to Odin as he then turned to Rossweisse, and asked her in a manner befitting of a gentleman, much to the surprise of Serafall who saw him as a scoundrel with no gentleman manner.

”My name is Rossweisse, Odin-sama's bodyguard.” She replied in a stiff valkyrie manner as she looked straight to Rafi, though her eyes betrayed her stiff etiquette as it flashed with a curiosity over the rumoured another world's Sekiryuutei in front of her.

”Why are you being so stiff, Rossweisse? This is the reason you have not found your sweetheart hero until now.” Odin said lightly at Rossweisse's stiff introduction as he rubbed his temple with rather pitying look, which caused her to suddenly burst in tears upon hearing him.

”Uuwahhh!! Then what should I do?! I am just a boring Valkyrie who doesn't have a partner for a long time! Uwahhh!!”

”I am sorry for this kid, please overlook it, everyone.” Odin looked at Sirzechs and the others in front of him apologetically after he looked at Rossweisse's unbecoming manner.

”Ah, no need to mention it, Odin-dono.”

”Hmm, but it is surprising that you are still single all these times, Rossweisse. It means that there is still a chance for me.” Rafi suddenly flashed beside her and held her chin lightly, as he matched his clear eyes straight to her crying eyes when he said it softly to her.

”Hm??” Rossweisse, shocked by his sudden hold on her, looked up to his face who suddenly appeared in front of her.

”The guys are really blind if they ignore such a heaven's grace in the form of yourself, Rossweisse.”

”Wha...?!” Rossweisse looked surprised happily after hearing his words, as her cry stopped, and leaving her agape at him.

”Ra-fi!! You, Lecher!” Serafall said slowly as she gritted her teeth in jealousy when she looked at the scene where Rafi held Rossweisse's chin intimately.

”Oops, looks like trouble is behind me. Let's meet at another times, beautiful Valkyrie.” As he said so, he smiled lightly to her while he then flashed beside Serafall and trying to pacify her, whereas an absentminded Rossweisse was still looking at him.

”Oh, this is rather lively scene, everyone. And pleased to meet you, Odin-dono.” Michael suddenly appeared among them as he already finished his matters in Heaven, and arrived to see the spectacle of Rossweisse who was sitting on the ground while staring absent-mindedly at Rafi who was pacifying the jealous Serafall. He arrived with Irina behind him, as she was his Ace after she was reincarnated as an Angel recently, which was done with new system the Angels developed after basing it on the Devil's Evil Pieces.

”So, the related party has been assembled. Why don't we begin the ceremony now?” Sirzechs smiled as he said so after he saw the representative of Three Factions and Norse Mythology already assembled, and ready to sign the Peace Treaty.

”Well, we are waiting for someone else, Sirzechs. Ah, I think he will be coming shortly now.” After Rafi said so, a space portal suddenly formed on midair, leaving the unknowing devils in shock to the intrusion of unknown portal.

”Objection.” A sudden, heavy voice sounded abruptly from the portal.

”Looks like you really come eh, foolish kid.” Odin looked sharply to the portal as he already guessed who just crashed their peace agreement ceremony.

”I am North Mythology Evil God, Loki.”

”As a god North Mythology, you should not make a trouble here, Loki.” Azazel said lightly after Loki's introduction.

”I am really disappointed in our Father of God when he decides to mingle with other mythologies. If he keep doing so, we will not be able to reach Ragnarok after all. That is why I object to this damn of Peace Treaty.”

”Ragnarok eh, I have heard of it. You, surely are connected to Chaos Brigade aren't you?” Azazel kept looking at him tightly, in fear of sudden movements as he kept asking him, to get more information out of him while got more times to plan how to deal with him.

”I admit that I do work together with him, but this is based on my own will.”

”Loki, if you go back now, I will forgive your transgression just now.” Odin said to Loki deeply as he looked at the floating Loki with sharp eyes.

”Forgive me, eh? Don't joke around! Come forth my children, Fenrir!” Loki smiled sarcastically as he raised his hand, creating a portal as he summoned Fenrir out of it.

”AOUUU!”

”You are really noisy. Space-Lock.” His Byakugan eyes suddenly formed a Decagram-star as Rafi activated his space ability to hold Loki and Fenrir for a moment.

”Huhh??!” Azazel, Sirzechs, Ajuka and the others were surprised at the sudden barrier that trapped Loki. Their surprise continued when they saw the usually pupil less eyes of Rafi which suddenly had a black Decagram-Star on both of them, which reeked with sinister and cold aura from his new eyes.

”Why are you being dull like that?! Ajuka, you should be able to seal him now like how we planned for this sudden attack. I can only hold Loki and Fenrir for a moment here.”

”Oh, that's right! Thank you for holding him, Rafi. I will prepare the seal in a bit!”

Several seconds later, after barrage of attacks from Loki and Fenrir, the barrier of Space-Lock looked really weak like it would shatter with a bit of touch when a flash of light appeared under Loki and Fenrir as it sealed and sent them away to another place in underworld, far away from the devil's cities. Thus restoring the calmness of event when Loki and Fenrir were successfully sent away.

”Ah, good, it really just on time before the barrier breaks eh. Now, we can continue the ceremony. Loki will not disturb us for a moment now.”

”You really surprise me kid. What is with your eyes now? Is that an evil eye? But I never see an evil eye like that.”

”Hm, you can call it evil eye though. Ah, it looks like I have another event, see you later everyone.” Rafi replied lightly as he mysteriously smiled to Odin, before he disappeared in a flash.

”Well, whatever.” Odin looked at Rafi's disappearance unconcernedly as he then continued to conclude the Peace Treaty together with Three Factions.

.....

In another place, at outskirts of the forest. Koneko, Issei, Rias and Tannin just have a clash with Kuroka and Bikou. In which Koneko finally showed her recently mastered Senjutsu to her sister, much to Kuroka's astonishment.

”Kuroka nee-san.”

”Oh, you don't seem afraid of that power anymore, Shirone. Have you decided to follow me, and leaving those devils behind?” Kuroka looked at her sister playfully as she invited Koneko to leave with her.

”No, I will not leave Rias-senpai and the others. I have just understood... what happened back then.”

”...who told you such lies, Shirone? I will rip his throat for spewing such lies to my gullible little sister!” After a brief silence, Kuroka looked Koneko sharply before she said menacingly.

”Oh, it is me. What, you want to have a try with me? Rather than that, why don't you invite them out, Kuroka?” A silhouette suddenly arrived behind Koneko, Rias, Issei and Tannin, scared the heck out of them.

”Hmm, who are you? Don't butt your nose around in our matters!”

”Come on, Vali should told you already. I am the Red Dragon Emperor.”

””Sensei!””

”Nah, calm down now, Koneko-chan, Rias and Issei. And thank you for protecting them, old man Tannin.”

”No problem here.” Tannin's heavy vocie was mixed with a bit of relief when he saw Rafi appeared in their midst.

”Sekiryuutei is that pervert-looking kid there. Who are you?” Kuroka said in a matter-of-fact as she looked at Issei in distaste.

”Calm down, Kuroka. He is another Sekiryuutei that I fought before. Although it is confusing, but he is really Sekiryuutei, beside Hyoudou Issei.” Vali's voice suddenly sounded from behind Kuroka as he then appeared with a little girl in gothic lolita outfit beside him.

”But still, I am really surprised you bring 'her' here, Vali. What is such big shot doing here?” Rafi looked at Vali and the little girl beside him in grimace as he didn't think he would be facing her this soon.

”Ho, I am just accompanying her, you see. It is she who is curious to another Sekiryuutei's appearance no?” Vali smiled a bit after he saw the grimace on Rafi, after Rafi recognized who she was.

”You really take your jokes, Vali. And what do you want to do here, Infinity Dragon God Ophis?” Rafi said lightly to Vali as he then faced Ophis seriously.

”You. follow. me.” Ophis replied to Rafi unhesitatingly as she pointed at him clearly.

”I am sure I am not hearing things right, Vali.” Hearing what she said, Rafi couldn't help to stare at her unblinkingly as he felt he was just hearing another joke.

”You hear her. Just follow us, then we will not touch the others here. How about it? We have sealed this place, you can't deal with us while protecting them now.”

”What do you mean, Vali? If I want to run, it is easy for me. Just, let them back first. I will play with you for a bit.”

””Let us help you, Sensei!”” Koneko and Issei said in unison as they looked at Rafi with conviction.

”Now, now, don't be that disobedient. Leave this thing to me. Beside that, I am also itching for a good fight you know. You go first. Old man Tannin, you too need to leave.”

””Sensei?!””

”Are you sure?” Tannin asked as he looked at Rafi deeply.

”You are rather noisy, take your time to leave now, haha.” As he said so, Rafi used Hiraishin Technique as he sent them away, easily piercing the barrier that Vali and his group erected with difficulty previously.

”You sure are strong, to even pierce that barrier Arthur and Le Fay put up seriously. Then, let's go with us.”

”Who says I will go with you all. I am just saying I will play around a bit.”

”Looks like we really need to use the hard way huh. Balance Breaker! Vanishing Dragon Scale Mail!”

”Nice. Balance Breaker! Welsh Dragon Scale Mail! Why don't you join in the fun too, Ophis?!”

”Later. if. you. are. strong. enough.”

”Fine, let's raise the difficulty then. Juggernaut Drive!” As he activated Juggernaut Drive, his Scale Mail grew in size as it became more compact and solid, with his wing spanned wider, complete with its thruster. It was looking more like Vali's Juggernaut Drive, but with more complete form as he already devoured the hatred and souls of previous holder of Boosted Gear with his {Soul Form}. It made his Juggernaut Drive stronger, safer to use and had longer active duration, as it didn't contain the curse of hatred like the one in Issei's or Vali's current Juggernaut Drive.

”The heck is he doing, releasing it such early?! Juggernaut Drive!” Vali looked at Rafi in disbelief as he also responded by releasing his Juggernaut Drive, albeit with cautioning himself to the time limit for using it.

”It is your honor to witness this. I have been hiding it for a surprise, but I think you will be glad to be surprised right. Then, please meet my Susano'o!” A clone of Rafi appeared behind Rafi's original body from a puff of smoke as it summoned the Full-body Susano'o to deal with Bikou and Kuroka, while he faced with Vali. Ophis only looked at the scene from sidelines with inreasing interest as Rafi kept surprised her with more things, especially when Rafi used a perfect Juggernaut Drive and summoned an avatar of one of famous Japanese God to battle for him.

”Maybe. you. really. could. help. me. return. to. my. home. of. void.” Ophis muttered under her breath as she watched the fierce battle unfolded before her eyes. Destructions kept spreading as the land cracked and shattered due to their battle's impacts. Though, fortunately the destruction didn't spread to outside, largely due to the barrier holding it in.
