"Aegis Schnee, The King of Solitas and Patriarch of Schnee family."

Aegis lightly said as Rias calmed down and, with blush, pushed herself away from Aegis, as the realization of what she had done crept into her head, making her face and ears share the same crimson color as her hair...

"You are... No, I can see you are close to my sister, so let me introduce myself, my name is Sirzech Gremory, the current holder of Lucifer title, and one of four current Satan's, and this there is my Queen Grayfia Lucifuge."

Sirzech said as he warily looked at Aegis, Sirzech could feel the power the man before him was hiding in himself, and even from that small amount Sirzech felt, he was wary and little unnerved, Sirzech quickly looked at Sona, seeing her dead eyes made him twitch, but after noticing Sona's Queen shaking her head, Sirzech came to decide that it was probably not something urgent, or bad, still, the feeling of worry didn't leave him as he knew what his fellow Satan could do if her little sister was in danger...

"Pleasure."

Aegis said with a nod, respecting fellow leader and brother of Rias but nothing more.

"Can I ask, how do you... Know my Ri- I mean my little sister."

Sirzech wanted to say Ria-tan, but the pinch from Grayfia stopped him.

"Rias came to me, but from your looks... I can gather she already told you of our arrangement."

"Yes... She did... But I worry it is not as simple, Rias is current Heir of Gremory family and as noble-born Devil she-"

"I will stop you right there, right now Rias belongs to me, and I will not let any law of yours or obligation from releasing her before her term ends, and if she herself doesn't in these five years wish to do something, she will have my support, so no, your laws don't concern me, or your opinions, the sole opinion I care from you Devils belongs to Rias and Akeno who too belongs to me."

Aegis said, and Sirzech frowned as he slowly started to radiate his power, just for his eyes to widen as he felt another power crushing his, and looking at Aegis who worry stoic face, Sirzech sighed, knowing that if it came to fight, that all present would be in danger, still, from what Sirzech could see, his little sister Rias was on Aegis side, both figuratively and literally as she was looking at the man with shining eyes full of gratitude...

"I can see that... Rias, do you truly want-"

"Yes! I already said that Onii-sama! It was my decision and I will stand by it!"

Sirzech looked from Rias to Akeno to Aegis, and finally, to Grayfia who shook her head as her eyes didn't leave Aegis, Sirzech could see her being ready to fight at any moment, in the end, Sirzech shook his head with a deep sigh as he slumped on the couch.

"Well then... Why don't you tell me about yourself, so I can know what kind of man my little sister seems to like."

"Oni-sama!"

Rias squeaked in surprise and embarrassment as Aegis gave Sirzech a humorous smile and sat down as Sirzech and Aegis started to speak, the other's occupants of the room stayed quiet, with Rias from time to time looking worriedly at Sona, who still looked into the wall as if her spirit left her body...

------------------------

"So what do you think, Grayfia-chan."

Sirzech said as he came back from the human world, spent both emotionally and intellectually, at first Sirzech wanted to not believe in the man's words, but with evidence, and from his experience in dealing with lies of devils for centuries, Sirzech knew that the man spoke the truth, to think he came from another world, and to top it all was human that ruled species diverse kingdom and the sigh's and fact that he said made Sirzech sure that Ajuka would go over the moon to contact the man, still, even if Aegis Schnee showed a kinder side to his Rias and her peerage, the thing that he showed to Sirzech...

"He doesn't like us."

Grayfia said.

"No, he doesn't like Devils... And I think I know why..."

Sirzech said, he could hear pride and arrogance when the man spoke about humans, and if the man knew how humans were looked down in this world, it was no surprise he felt animosity against Devil's, that said, Sirzech needed a way to deal with it or the man himself, especially now that the three faction's leader's planned peace...

"What about Rias-sama?"

Grayfia asked, still worried about Rias who she practically raised, at least with Riser Grayfia was sure she could make sure the man was kind or at least not daring to hurt Rias even as her husband, but with the human that now held Rias, Grayfia was not sure she could protect Rias in the same manner, from what she could sense, the man looked at them as High Devils look at low Devils, or even worse, a look at them as at reincarnated devils...

"That is a good question, and at the same time, I would like you to ask for a favor, old friend."

Sirzech said as he looked at Grayfia, who seemed to read his mind.

"You want me to shadow Rias."

"No, no, that sounds so shady... No, with the current situation in the human world and the disappearance of Excalibur fragments, I think it would be prudent to send someone strong as you to protect two heiresses of the most important Devil families, and little sister's of current Satan's that could be used as good hostage's..."

"I see... But what about old devils? This could be seen as favoritism."

"Phah, favoritism to protect my little sister? I didn't stop the marriage, as that could be seen as favoritism, but this? This is a different matter, so let them complain, they need to remember it was me and my other three friends who led the civil war and won."

"Very well... I will go say goodbye to my sister Milier-sama and Milicas-sama and then promptly go to the human world."

"Good... Tell her im sorry but I will work until night, and Grayfia, do not contact Seraffal, at least not yet..."

Sirzech said, as it was another can of worms, from what Sirzech heard, the boy won in chess against Sona, and that meant, well nothing, as it was nowhere written for Sona to marry the one who defeated her, but if she doesn't, her reputation will take hit, especially in such big matter like this, the girl truly dug up her grave and jumped right into it...

Sona's sole way other than marrying Aegis would by to make sure that she and he came to some agreement and not tell anybody other of her loss, otherwise nobody would in future take her words seriously, promise breakers were seen badly in Devil society that prided itself to follow upon their contract's and promises...

Sirzech shook his head, right now he needed to prepare for a new player in their already fractured world, and a human one at that...

Sirzech could already see the greedy devils who would want either Aegis himself or some mortals from Aegis kingdom as their peerage members, and from what Sirzech could see, any such attempt would be seen poorly by that man...

And Sirzech didn't know how he should breach the news to his parents, his mother would by probably be happy for Rias, as even if slave in all but the name she was now, Rias was definitely happy, otherwise Sirzech would fight the man to death, but his father...

Sirzech didn't know if he was happy to bring this news to his father or anxious...

Still, Sirzech supposed he didn't care that much, his father was no longer what he was, and past decades after the birth of Rias, something must happen as Sirzech knew that even if they tried, there was bad blood between his father and mother, Sirzech didn't try to look too deeply into it from respect for his parents, but the more he thought about it, the more he was confused, yes his parents never were truly in love as their marriage was political one, but at least when Sirzech was young they were on friendly terms, not lovers per se, but more like old friends...

"Hah... What the absolute cluster fuck this became..."
