The warm sunshine shines on the earth and a cool breeze blows.
Today is another refreshing day.
Because it is the weekend, many office workers and students who have a rare day off will hang out in groups of two or three in the streets and have fun.
Among them is Sona Sitri, the daughter of the Sitri family, a high school student in the "Underworld".
Now, she has changed out of her black and white student uniform and is walking on the bustling street in a simple dress.
Although she was dressed in ordinary clothes, her exquisite and outstanding appearance attracted the attention of men passing by.
"Those two girls are so cute!"
"She looks like a student. Do you want to go and chat with her?"
"Well... forget it. I always feel that there is a strong sense of danger from that girl. If I dare to chat her up... hiss!"
"Haha! What a coward!"
Having said that, no one dared to approach and strike up a conversation. The men just stood a little further away, watching them leave with regret.
"Tsubaki-hime."
Sona moved her gaze and looked at the relatives beside her.
"What's wrong, President?"
A girl with the same outstanding appearance and eye-catching long straight black hair, Tsubaki Shinra looked at her master with a smile.
"Do I...have that scary, dangerous aura?"
Perhaps because of the negative comments about her just now, Sona frowned slightly and asked with a subtle expression.
"Not at all. Rather, you are full of intellectual aura, which makes people yearn for you."
Tsubaki Shinra looked at her sincerely and spoke frankly from her heart.
"...Yeah."
Sona muttered to herself, but finally gave up thinking about this question and continued walking forward.
Although Kuoh Town is the territory managed by Rias Gremory, the new generation of devil of the Gremory family, Sona, as her best friend, sometimes patrols on behalf of Rias when she is unable to leave due to other matters.
It's called a patrol, but it's just to pay attention to some church exorcists, some fallen angels who have broken away from the group, and other uninvited beings who stay and cause trouble. As for the disputes between humans, that's something the police should deal with.
Of course, if Sona, who has a strong sense of justice, really encountered those things, she would not turn a blind eye.
"Speaking of which, President...I heard that the army of 'Absolute Evil' has already attacked the hell."
After inspecting for a while, Tsubaki Shinra suddenly asked.
"Um."
Sona nodded. Although the devils outside could not return to the underworld which was still in a "state of war", some news could still be heard.
"However, Tsubaki, your information is outdated. The battle in the hell actually ended a few days ago, and it is no surprise that the Devil King won again."
"this..."
Tsubaki Shinra opened her mouth, a little stunned.
"Is the Devil King just like the legend says, possessing unrivaled power among all living beings?"
"That's right."
Sona smiled and said, "I also consulted my sister about the situation. I heard that it seems that the Devil King broke into the temple of Hades, the Lord of the hell, alone, and killed him in less than half a minute...Now the remaining bones of Hades, the Lord of the Underworld, seem to be being analyzed and studied in the Institute of Absolute Evil in the capital."
As a lower-ranking being, Tsubaki Shinra had no idea how powerful the Lord of the Underworld was.
Now she only knew that the devil king "Absolute Evil" who could easily kill her was just as the legend said, possessing terrifying power that surpassed all gods.
"The hell after the fallen angels... President, could it be that the devil's goal is to make all forces bow down to him?"
Tsubaki Shinra asked with lingering fear.
"How can we explore the Devil King's thoughts? However, judging from the current situation, it may be true."
When she said this, a hint of admiration flashed in Sona's eyes.
"...President, you seem to care about that adult very much."
Tsubaki Shinra, who noticed this, asked softly.
"It's natural."
Sona smiled calmly.
"Tsubaki, you are not a pure-blooded devil born in the underworld, so you may not understand what kind of existence that sir is to us devils. Especially for new generation devils like me and Rias, we have been instilled with the idea that 'the devil king is everything' since we were young. Therefore, devils regard him as the supreme existence, just like the relationship between angels and gods. Just being able to meet him is a great honor for us."
....I always feel like it's a little different.
Tsubaki Shinra thought to herself that she always felt that her master's feelings towards the Devil King were not just simple respect, and there seemed to be a glimmer of longing in her eyes.
But Tsubaki Shinra still knows what to say and what not to say.
"It seems that there is nothing special. Let's stop here for today's inspection."
After discussing the deeds of the Devil King, Sona seemed to be in a good mood. she glanced at the sky and made this decision.
"Yes. Next, shall we go back to the mansion?"
Shinra Tsubaki asked.
"There's nothing to do if I go back now..."
Sona thought about it, and looked around, finally her eyes fell on a clothing store with a lot of customer traffic.
Then she looked at the clothes she was wearing and then at the clothes on display in the cupboard.
"Go buy some clothes."
"…Huh?"
Sona's decision made Shinra Tsubaki look surprised, as if she had heard something unbelievable.
"What does that expression mean, Tsubaki-hime?"
Sona frowned slightly, looking a little dissatisfied.
"I didn't expect it President... No, nothing."
Tsubaki Shinra seemed to realize something halfway through her speech and immediately changed her words.
However, the careful Sona still guessed what she wanted to express.
"I am a girl after all, so naturally I would pursue some nice clothes... Forget it, let's go."
"yes."
And so, the two girls walked towards the clothing store.
"Welcome."
Amid the salesperson's warm hospitality, Sona and Tsubaki Shinra walked into the clothing store and headed towards the women's clothing area.
