《I’m also pardoning myself for being in here.》
I heard a voice saying that from the ceiling! When I look up, there is a magic-circle on the ceiling, and there is a small built Grim Reaper that is showing her face from the magic-circle while being upside down! It’s the new member of the Sitri-group, Bennia!
Wow! Since she’s wearing a skull mask, it feels a bit like a horror scene!
“I’m sorry Ise-kun. This girl was begging me as she wanted to come over to your house so I brought her with me.”
The Grim Reaper girl perfectly lands down next to Kaichou who is apologising. She then sits down next to Kaichou immediately.
《Oppai Dragon’s residence……this is basically like a Shangri-La for me.》
Bennia then looks around my room while having her eyes sparkle.
Well, putting that aside, I don’t mind for the Sitri-group to come over to my house!
I then say it to Sona-kaichou with a smile.
“No no, if you are okay with my house, then come over whenever you like! Though, I’m not the owner of this house.”
The owner of this house is supposed to be my dad……however I’m starting to think lately that it’s Rias…… The ones who renovated this house were the Gremorys’ after all!
—Then Kaichou moves her gaze towards the documents that Ravel and I scattered on the floor.
“My servants are also on-going with their selection right now. Today, apart from Tsubaki and I, they should be together having a hard time in deciding. I’m also giving advice to them, however I want them to decide on their own.”
Looks like Saji and the others are also having a hard-time being popular. And it seems like they are more independent than the Gremory members.
Oh yeah, this is a good occasion. I will ask about the thing that has been on my mind lately to these members.
“By the way, what do you benefit in the most by making a pact with a magician?”
It’s something anyone will be in doubt about. It’s something I should have asked at the beginning, however I forgot to ask. Actually, I was going to ask Ravel about it.
For a magician, a pact with a Devil is full of benefits. Then, are there any merits for a Devil to make a pact with a magician apart from the teachings they were taught since ancient times?
That’s what I’m curious about. If it’s simply about earning money, then there are many industries in the Underworld.
Kaichou says it after drinking the tea that she received from Akeno-san.
“That will be the result they will achieve by researching about magic.”
Magic, huh. Kaichou continues.
“Demonic-powers are the power of Devils, and magic is the power born by researching about the Devil’s power which also became a power that humans can control. Other than that, there is also fairy magic, Norse magic, and different types of magic with different equations. Among them, there is also magic that was created by the Gods, however it is said that the majority of magic that is used by the ordinary magicians are those created by the Great Magician Merlin Ambrosius which involves reading the flow.”
Yeah, I have heard that before. Sona-kaichou continues.
“Those magic have separated from the Devils, and while it goes through its own evolution and changes, there were powers created that can’t be used by the Devils. Those magic are continuing to change even now, and it’s a territory where you can’t see the end of it. Finally, those magic can be used to contribute to the technological development of the Underworld.”
Ah, if I remember correctly, I heard that Sirzechs-sama’s servant, the [Bishop] MacGregor Mathers-san, also has contributed to the Underworld with the research of magic.
Kaichou looks at me and points to her glasses.
“The truth is, these are special glasses that were created due to the researching of magic. Though they don’t have any impressive powers at all.”
She reveals the truth now! So they aren't normal glasses……
“Even if it’s a magic that isn’t impressive in the human’s world, it can have ground-breaking traits for the Devils. Those types of magic have a high value, so they can be used for trade. You can say that we rate the talents of the magicians highly. For that reason, there are cases where we give priority investment to the magicians. That is why it is important for us to select them very carefully. There is a high chance that we may not benefit from them after all.”
So it means that the magician’s research can be a plus for a Devil. I sure do feel something like a karma since magic that was born from investigating the Devils powers became something that is involved with the Underworld in such a way.
Kaichou then says it as if she’s warning me.
