The moment Masa appeared, all members of Ravel's family quickly gathered around him. 

Nevertheless, while Ravel's father and older brothers glared at him, her mother smiled softly and giggled when she saw Masa's awkward expression. 

"Onii-sama, don't blame Masa! He is busy, after all." 

Naturally, it was impossible for Ravel to see Masa being ganged up on by her family, and she quickly protected him. 

"But, Ravel... this guy..." 

"Onii-sama!" 

"Hmph!" 

While Riser couldn't be said to be a good person, especially since he had many women and loved to play around, he was a good older brother, so naturally, he cared about his little sister, and because of that, he couldn't help but feel annoyed at Masa, who took and used his little sister's kindness. 

More importantly, he is sure that Masa knows about his little sister's feelings, yet Masa plays a dense character as if he doesn't realize her feelings. 

Facing such a bastard, how could Riser give his little sister? 

Yes, Riser had to admit that Masa was strong and this guy was capable, especially in the business, but even so, this and that were different matters! 

Still, while Riser was annoyed by Masa, Lord Phenex, Ravel's father, was still gentle and asked, "By the way, I have heard that you want to start a new business in the human world, Masa. Is that true?" 

"Yup." Masa nodded. "I plan to make a venture there." 

"Oh? Can I come to invest some of my money then?" 

"Sure, you are welcome, Uncle." 

Yup, the only thing that the House of Phenex didn't lack was money, especially due to their "Phenex Tears," which was the important elixir that could only be produced by their family, and due to their monopoly, it might not be wrong to say they were the richest. 

Yet, to develop that wealth was a different matter, and while they could do a simple business, it took a lot of work to do a complicated business. 

However, Masa was different since this guy was so slick at managing business. 

If the House of Phenex was the richest, then it wouldn't be wrong to say that the House of Vapula was the second richest, especially when it had a variety of businesses and never lacked innovation. 

Yes, at that time, Masa's ability might not have appeared yet, but even so, it didn't mean he was helpless, considering how backward the devil society was and how most high-class devils only related to hedonism and strength. There was hardly anyone who took the matter of business seriously like him; after all, the majority of them could live well by taking a lot of taxes from the devils who lived within their territory like a feudal society. 

Even the Four Great Satans weren't good at business since being strong didn't mean they were equal to being great at business.

Yes, the Four Great Satans might have been stronger than him previously, but their talents weren't as comprehensive as Masa's, so when Lord Phenex heard that Masa went to the human world to do business with Ravel, naturally, he wanted to join and make an investment. 

Anyway, it was only a time, everyone thought. 

Unlike Riser, who was indignant, all of them knew that it was only a matter of time before Masa made his decision since they knew well how mature he was, yet due to that, he might have many worries within him, and with how close their relationship was, it was also hard to take the initiative to start this problem, so as a family, they thought they might as well help to create a chance and this engagement party might be a good chance they thought. 

"I have heard that you are also starting to have an interest in the Rating Game." Ruval Phenex, the oldest son of Lord Phenex and the older brother of Riser and Ravel, looked at Masa with a fighting spirit. "Go and fight. I will be waiting for you. By the way, beat up Riser for me." 

"Aniki!" Riser was angry when he heard Ruval's words since, as his older brother, then shouldn't Ruval cheer him to defeat Masa? 

"Then, can you beat him?" Ruval asked calmly. 

"...." 

Riser could only grumble since Masa was a bastard, and he had to admit that this guy was strong even without his lion pets. 

Nevertheless, as they talked for a while, naturally, Masa didn't stay too long since the protagonist of this party was Riser. 

'Unfortunately...' 

If Riser's failure wouldn't affect him, then Masa didn't care, but, as it would affect him significantly, he knew that he had to move, and at the same time, this was also his chance to learn about whether the world would follow the plot or not. 

After all, Masa had taken Asia, taken down the three fallen angel bitches, then also killed Kokabiel, so what would happen next? 

He wasn't sure, but he decided to go to the party first. 

"Then, I will meet you at the party. Oh, right, here is your gift." 

"Hmph! Ravel must prepare it for you, right?" 

"...." Masa. 

Ravel chuckled since she knew well that Riser did this to help her, but even so, she quickly defended Masa again. "It's all good, right? Anyway, Masa didn't forget your engagement party and sincerely wished you happiness, you know?" 

"Well, that's true." Riser nodded. "Thanks." Yup, this guy was an asshole, but he knew well that his little sister loved him, and he took care of her well. More importantly, Masa was good at maintaining a distance, especially when Masa never tried to seduce his women, even if Masa could, which made him trust Masa a lot. 

"No problem." 

Still, Masa asked, "By the way, Riser, can you get me the record of your Rating Game?" 

"...you didn't watch it earlier?" 

"No." 

"Asshole!" Riser was furious, but then he sighed and said, "I will get someone to send you later." 

"Thanks." 

After excusing himself, Masa left with Asia, leaving Ravel with her family, and then went to the party. 

Still, while this was her first time seeing something like this, Asia wasn't nervous since Masa was holding her hand. 

At the same time, by showing this action, he showed that she was his woman, which might cause others to think that he was a womanizer who kept many women close to him, but everything was fine, especially when Masa was strong and there was someone who was more horrible than him, so he was okay. 

"Masa-sama, what is a Rating Game?" Asia asked. 

"Hmm... you can say that it is an event to show a devil's social standing." 

"Ah, then, isn't that a super important event?"

Unlike those poor and weak devils, Masa was wealthy and strong, so he couldn't care less about the Rating Game. "Though, we might join it in the future. Is that okay with you?" 

"Yes!" Asia nodded happily. "I will be your greatest support, Masa-sama." 

"Thanks, Asia." 

"No, it should be me who thank you, Masa-sama." 

It was he who pulled her up from hell known as the world.

Well, she had never thought that she would become a devil and live in the Underworld, but as long as she was with him, she was happy. 

Masa had to say that this girl was as naive as ever, but it didn't matter since, from now on, he would protect her. 

"Let's go then." 

"Okay~!" 

As the two walked toward the hall where the party was held, many of the attendees had come, and Masa was probably the late one since, unlike the others who had to curry favor of the House of Phenex due to the Phenex Tears, there was no need for him to do so, especially when he had Ravel by his side. 

Still, everyone was immersed in the Rating Game between Riser and Rias, which was held previously, but most of them couldn't help but say that Riser was so lucky to have Rias! 

After all, Rias was gorgeous, and she was Sirzech Lucifer's little sister! 

For Riser, who would marry such a woman, how could he not be lucky?! 

Yet among all of those discussions, two young women and one young man, who were the peerage members of Rias, gathered together calmly as if waiting for something. 

"I watched your match. It was a good match." 

As Rias' best friend, naturally, Sona came, and as she saw the three, she comforted them for a bit. 

"Thank you, Sona-sama." The oldest among the group of three, a young woman with a kimono and Japanese-like beauty, thanked Sona sincerely, yet the fire in her eyes hadn't been subdued. "But this isn't over yet." 

"Oh?" Sona nodded, didn't bother too much, and just looked around. Unfortunately, she couldn't find the one that she sought after. 

While Tsubaki sighed helplessly at her mistress, the three were confused. Yet this wasn't the time for them to care about Sona, but—

"Masa Vapula-sama has arrived!" 

On that announcement, all the clatters and noises directly disappeared. 

Yet, somehow, all the men became nervous. 

"HIDE YOUR WIVES! HURRY UP!" 

"DAMN, WHY DID THAT SHUT-IN COME OUT! AH, WHAT SHOULD I DO?! I BROUGHT MY FIANCEE WITH ME!" 

"DAMMIT! DAMMIT! HURRY UP AND USE THE TELEPORTATION MAGIC TO GO BACK!"

"...." 

At this moment, the group of three were dumbfounded by the commotion. 

"W-What's happening?" 

It was their first time to see something like this, or rather, this was the first time they heard the name "Masa Vapula," especially when they mostly stayed at the domain of the House of Gremory. 

Yet, Sona and Tsubaki, who had read the background of Masa, couldn't help but feel speechless by the commotions caused by Masa's entrance. 

Yet—

Tap! 

As the sound of footsteps was heard, and his figure was seen, all the noises vanished completely. 

'Ah...' 

It was too late, they thought.
