The next day,
Several women met in the dining room.
Asia looked pitifully at Xenovia and Utaha.
Her big eyes seemed to say, 'Didn't you say it was foolproof?'
Irina also looked at Asia with some sympathy.
She hadn't expected that with both great sensei taking action together, they still failed.
'Could it be that the novice defeats the expert?'
Utaha smiled awkwardly: "There's no helping it. No plan can keep up with changes."
At this point, she sighed: "Who could have expected that Yuri-san, who fainted from the blessing, would take action?"
Hearing this, Asia suddenly felt a bit wronged.
'I had come first.'
'Why was everyone getting ahead of me?'
Xenovia comforted: "Asia, don't lose heart. This was just an accident. Next time, we'll make an even more perfect plan."
Utaha agreed: "That's right. Next time, there will be absolutely no mistakes."
Hearing this, Asia wanted to speak but hesitated, and could only nod.
In any case, she could only rely on her two teachers.
…
Afternoon.
Feeling refreshed, Ayato finally came to the living room.
He looked at Asia and said: "By the way, Asia, was there something you wanted to tell me with that message yesterday?"
Hearing this, Asia's face immediately turned red. Fumbling, she said: "Did I? Probably not. Maybe I sent it by mistake?"
'Something's wrong!'
'Something's very wrong!'
'What was this little girl up to?'
Ayato looked at Asia, his expression somewhat suspicious.
Asia lowered her head, fiddling with her skirt, already turning red.
No matter what, she hadn't managed to throw herself at him.
This matter was far too embarrassing. She absolutely couldn't let Ayato know.
Thump! Thump!
Just then, the apartment door was knocked.
Sensing for a moment, Ayato was slightly surprised.
Asia immediately looked relieved and quickly went to open the door.
Whoosh!
As the door opened,
A figure in a maid outfit, with delicate and serious features, walked in.
"Grayfia, it's you."
Gabriel suddenly stood up, a look of surprise on her face.
"Yes, long time no see."
Grayfia greeted coolly, her gaze already falling on Ayato: "Hello, Ayato-chan."
"Grayfia-nee, what brings you here?"
Ayato quickly invited Grayfia to sit down: "Tea, or coffee?"
He wouldn't be negligent towards this sister who had watched him grow up.
Grayfia shook her head: "No need. Ayato-chan will soon be my master. It would be too rude for you to do this."
'Huh...?'
The mouths of Utaha and the others all opened slightly, looks of surprise on their faces.
They were no longer Devil newbies.
So they deeply knew what a formidable character the person before them was.
'But she called Ayato master?'
'What was going on?'
Even Ayato was a bit confused, completely caught off guard.
"Ayato-chan, you haven't forgotten the Devil Sirzechs promised, have you?"
Grayfia spoke slowly, expressionless.
"That Devil is Grayfia-nee?"
Ayato was stunned for a moment, then instinctively said: "I really didn't expect that."
"What, is it not allowed?"
Grayfia frowned, her gaze becoming dangerous: "Ayato-chan, are you rejecting me?"
Aside from Ayato...
Everyone's breathing hitched.
They felt an inexplicable pressure in the air, making it hard for them to breathe.
"How could I reject you?"
Ayato said with utmost seriousness: "If Grayfia-nee comes, I couldn't ask for more."
In this world, Grayfia belonged to no one. It would be a lie to say he wasn't interested.
It was just that before, there had never been a good opportunity.
Instantly, the pressure in the air disappeared without a trace.
"Although this was prearranged,"
Grayfia looked at Ayato, a faint smile appearing at the corner of her mouth: "But for you to become my master, you must be stronger than me."
"Meaning Grayfia-nee wants to fight me?"
Ayato ventured: "Wouldn't that be bad? If I hurt Grayfia-nee, I'd feel guilty."
Grayfia smiled: "Ayato-chan, don't worry about that. I definitely won't get angry."
'Danger!'
'Extremely dangerous!'
Utaha and the others all had this thought.
"If that's what Grayfia-nee wants, then it can't be helped."
Ayato nodded and smiled: "But not here. Let's set up a different space."
For an ordinary spar, a barrier from his Authority would suffice.
But if it was against her, that wouldn't do.
If the two of them let loose, not to mention his house, the entire city would be leveled.
Rating Game's Game Field!
It perfectly replicated Ayato's apartment and its surrounding environment.
In the entire different space, there were only Ayato and Grayfia.
As for the others, they were all watching from the real world.
"Not bad, Ayato-chan. In such a short time, you can set up such a perfect different space."
Looking around, Grayfia's eyes flickered, and she said: "It seems you've really improved a lot since becoming a Campione."
"Even before becoming a Campione, I was like this."
Ayato smiled: "Grayfia-nee, don't underestimate me."
These words were not false.
After becoming an Origin Magician, Ayato had basically not learned any offensive magic.
Because it wasn't necessary.
But he had paid attention to some magics with special effects.
At certain times, these magics were very useful.
"Then I'll look forward to it."
Grayfia smiled, her Devil's wings and tail extending out.
Her maid outfit transformed into a black battle dress, her surging magical energy flowing like a tide in all directions.
Rumble! Rumble!
For a moment, the entire different space trembled slightly.
Countless buildings visibly shook.
"So... so strong."
Utaha and the others were dumbfounded.
Even across the different space, they could feel that unparalleled aura.
