Speaking of business, even Himejima Akeno, who seemed a little happy just now, looked a little embarrassed.
Chapter 174: Demonic Responses Targeted by Various Forces
A week ago, Rias's first ranking game was deliberately planned, which brought out the top warriors from various forces. Taking advantage of the opportunity when the combat power of each force was empty, the world-famous "Evil Dragon Plunder" incident was created.
Although it was the trigger of this incident, anyone with a discerning eye could see that this incident actually had nothing to do with Rias and the underworld demons.
The one who robbed the major forces was the evil dragon, the one who sent the underworld venue where more than a dozen transcendents existed at that time to the dimensional gap was the disaster group, the one who blocked the road and prevented the top fifteen people in the world from leaving the dimensional gap to defend was the Great Red and the two dragon gods from the other world, and the one who seriously injured all the strong men present was the aftermath of the fight between the dragon gods and the attack launched by the shadow before leaving.
Demon? The biggest crime is poor supervision, which caused the propaganda department to either go crazy or accept bribes and launch a wave of attacks.
If no force responds directly, then everyone can just pretend not to understand and send a few cats and kittens over to take a look, and that's pretty much how it's dealt with.
But as one of the top ten strongest people in the world who is bored wants to see the devil make a fool of himself and publicly expresses that he wants to go and see, the major forces can no longer take the invitation seriously.
It is because of this that each major force has sent out several strong men who can be considered to have strong foundation.
You send out one, I send out one, and just like that, a number of strong people who are capable of fighting a world war on the spot are gathered in such a small competition.
It’s not that there aren’t strong people who can see that the situation is not right, but due to their confidence, they still go to the underworld with the mentality of having fun or looking for trouble.
Some of them even opened champagne in advance and planned to find fault with the underworld after watching the game with the excuse of "playing tricks on the princes with fire". After that... everyone knows what happened.
The strong men who went to watch the game were either dead or injured. Except for a few with strong recovery abilities, most of the rest are still lying in bed receiving treatment.
In a sense, some of the strong ones exceeded their goal of causing trouble for the underworld, although they did not actually want to cause trouble for the demons by seriously injuring themselves.
From the perspective of the middle and lower-level combat forces of the major forces, their boss and senior executives did them the honor of going to your territory of the demon underworld to watch a small game, but they came back seriously injured, and their precious treasures and gold reserves were robbed by the evil dragon, resulting in a drastic reduction in their salaries, and they had to tighten their belts to make ends meet.
Thinking in this way, they didn't even need any hints from their bosses; they spontaneously targeted the demon race.
Although the ones who robbed them were the evil dragons led by the Infinite Dragon God, and although their boss was severely injured by Shadow and the three Dragon Gods, and although the demons also had a lot of things robbed, but... it was...
The two great dragon gods from another world... were beaten to death by Shadow with his bare hands.
Great Red... He couldn't defeat Shadow, but that didn't mean they could defeat Great Red.
Shadow...was alone, and fought against three dragon gods in a row, killing two and driving away one.
Infinite Dragon God...a top five strong man in the world, with the ability to wholesale produce world-class strong men.
The evil dragon... its whereabouts are mysterious, its methods are strange, it can be resurrected after being killed, and its weakest strength is only SS level.
The above-mentioned beings are either difficult to deal with or difficult to deal with. From this perspective, the best person to blame and vent anger on is the devil.
Therefore, under the inexplicable tacit understanding of various forces, the actions against the demons of the underworld were tacitly accepted by all major forces.
But the demons can't say anything about this matter, because they really have to take the blame.
It has to be said that with a common target, the originally tense relationship between the various forces has eased a lot.
The specific manifestation is that now, even if demons around the world are walking in their own territory, they have to worry about being suddenly put in a sack and dragged into an alley to be beaten.
The devil's power is very strong, and it can even be said that it is among the top among many forces. However, the devil has incurred public anger this time, and the descendants of various forces spontaneously joined forces and chose to use the human wave tactic.
Just like the group of masked men who blocked Sid's alley on Sunday, to fight Sid, who seemed to have only B- strength, more than a dozen of the weakest ones with B strength came directly, and there were three A- among them.
From this, we can roughly guess how exaggerated the number of descendants of various forces are who have joined this group targeting demons.
During this time, most demons living around the world were attacked.
Moreover, it is basically an ultra-luxury configuration of a dozen people with similar strength to the person involved, and several people with strength one level higher than the person involved, who come to beat him up. This leads to the fact that most of the time, the person involved just reacts and wants to make a big noise before he is knocked unconscious by the enemy and dragged into the alley.
Only strong people like Rias, Shito Sona and Sairaorg, who have direct relatives and can give the opponent opportunities to make a big noise by using human wave tactics, can avoid any trouble.
But that's all. They are the only three who can avoid being attacked. Their followers and subordinates are also within the target range. No, it should be said that all lone demons are within the target range.
The demons living and going to school on Gengami Island are not just the nobles of the underworld like Rias. There are also many talented civilians who came here after a lot of hard work. These civilians are also included in the targets.
Rather than being in the underworld, demons like Rias, who have noble status and strength, have become the leaders in the cognition of these demons studying on Gengami Island.
So after most of them were beaten, these demons gathered together and wanted Rias to give them some advice.
At this moment, except for the three people arguing with each other on the stage, the people standing in the conference room, including civilians and relatives of the three people above, were all beaten up by that group of people to varying degrees. The few who were not beaten up were also afraid that they would be the next to be beaten.
“That doesn’t sound good.”
After understanding the situation, Sid glanced around and saw several of them who were badly beaten. He had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Yes, if this problem is not resolved, we can only give up studying here and return to the underworld."
Looking up at Rias who was still fighting with others with melancholy, Himejima Akeno looked troubled. It didn't seem like they could solve this big trouble.
"Indeed, the descendants of various forces now regard demons as their common enemy to resolve conflicts and cultivate their own social circles and connections. If you back off at this time, you will be bullied by the American style in the future.
Moreover, if she retreats when faced with problems and returns to the underworld to work behind closed doors, her reputation will be almost ruined if this gets out."
He touched his chin. He hadn't paid much attention to it before, but now that he had enough information, Sid quickly guessed the seriousness of the matter.
"Ah, brother Sid, you are really quick-witted. You figured it out so quickly. You are not saying this because you can't bear to leave your sister and want her to stay by your side."
It is a perfect example of what "changing expression faster than turning the pages of a book" means. In the last second, she looked worried and concerned about Rias, and in the next second, Himejima Akeno put on a face that teased a woman from her family, and whispered sweetly into Cid's ear.
"No, actually I'm thinking, if I make a righteous break with Rias now, and then shout 'I love humans' a few times, can I switch sides?"
Himejima Akeno's expression froze. She carefully observed Sid's expression and found that Sid seemed to be seriously thinking about the feasibility of this plan. It didn't seem like he was just joking, so she started to think about it too.
"Indeed, theoretically speaking, you haven't completed the reincarnation of a demon like us, and you don't have demon bloodline.
Strictly speaking, Sid, you are just an ordinary human who joined Rias's team and took up the position of Rias' future 'soldier'.
In this case, if you want to betray Rias, there is a high probability that you will do so."
"It seems to be true, but the problem is..."
Turning her head and looking at Sid, Himejima Akeno naturally continued the second half of Sid's sentence.
"Will they believe it?"
"Yeah, what will it take for them to say what I say?"
He nodded in agreement. From the perspective of others, Sid himself didn't believe that he would betray Rias so easily.
"So, don't think about this matter, Sid brother. Just follow Rias obediently. Rias is a good master.
Besides, Rias's family is quite open-minded and doesn't care much about marriage partners."
After smiling, Himejima Akeno straightened her face and gave Sid earnest advice.
"I feel like I still have hope, and it would be shameful to go to the underworld just for money."
"Well, Sid, let's not talk about your idea anymore. It seems that Rias and the others have come up with a conclusion."
As if shocked by Sid's idea, Himejima Akeno fell silent. At this time, Rias and the others seemed to have discussed the result, so they decisively chose to change the subject.
"Ahem, everybody, we already know what happened to you recently..."
After a few coughs, he attracted everyone's attention, and Zhiqu Cangna stood up and announced the result.
"If you are willing to trust us as the heirs of the bloodline of the 72 Pillars of the Underworld, then we will naturally shoulder our responsibilities and come up with a solution for you."
Taking a step forward, Rias and Shichito Sona were parallel to each other and looked at everyone.
"But we have to apologize first. The time was too short, and Rias and I only came up with a temporary solution that can't be said to be useful."
Having said this, Chitoge Sona's voice dropped, and he and Rias looked at each other, and at the same time bowed to everyone.
"We would like to ask everyone to try not to be alone during this period. When you go out, it is best to make an appointment with others. I believe that they are unlikely to attack us openly in public."
When everyone heard about Rias and the method of taking Sona, they were all shocked. They all more or less heard the subtext of Rias' words.
How can they remain calm if they don't proactively hold those who attacked them accountable and let them go unpunished? Doesn't this mean that they, the demons, have to admit defeat?
Watching this scene coldly, Sid had already guessed what Rias and Shitori Sona's answers would be, and he even almost guessed what would happen next.
After all, the solution to this problem is really difficult. There is no point in telling it to others, whether it is reporting to the teacher or calling the security team. With the tacit consent of various forces, I believe these so-called third-party forces will only make things difficult.
Even though targeting demons is now a tacit agreement among all major forces, when things really get out of hand, the demons are actually the ones who are in the wrong.
"I know everyone is angry, and so am I, but everyone should know what has happened recently. Now we demons are in crisis. I ask everyone to give us some time.
Please believe this heir of the Baal family. I swear in the name of the Baal family that this period of time will not be too long. We will definitely come up with a solution for you."
Sairaorg, who had been unable to get a word in from the beginning and could only sit aside and watch Rias and Sona Shichito arguing about methods, received a hint from Rias and the others and stood up decisively.
"Yes, I swear in the name of the Gremory family that we will find a way out of our predicament in the shortest possible time."
Seeing Sairaorg, the strongest of the Underworld, speak, Rias followed closely.
"Same, I swear in the name of the Sidi family that I will fulfill my responsibilities as the vice president of the student union and stop other people's actions against us demons as soon as possible."
Zhiqu Cangna also jumped out and used his status in the school to vouch for the devil.
"This……"
"Is it okay? I feel like Miss Zhiqu's last words seemed a little uncertain..."
"Who cares? If the sky falls, there will be tall people watching. It's just a matter of getting beaten up."
"I feel like they are just making sarcastic remarks. We are the ones being beaten. What's the point of them swearing in the name of their family..."
Even though they were mentally prepared in advance, everyone started talking about what the three of them said. Some people were very dissatisfied and felt that what Rias and the others said was just empty talk to fool them.
"It's amazing..."
As expected, Sid couldn't help but sigh as he watched all this.
"They came here to ask for help, but because the help they received did not meet their expectations, they secretly criticized those who were willing to help them."
Shaking his head, Sid continued to look at Rias and the others. They probably had more to say.
"I know you're worried that even if we travel together, the enemy won't hesitate.
So we will be together, and until this incident is resolved, we and our families will lead the team for protection, and accompany you after school."
He pushed up his glasses and spoke to everyone without changing his expression.
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other, realizing that there was no room for bargaining, and finally accepted the proposal honestly.
"Very good. As today is the first day, let's not rush to decide on the assigned teams. Let's first conduct a field survey. Is that ok?"
As they said this, Rias and Sonasidi secretly made a look to the audience.
Seeing the hint, the families of both families came forward tacitly to support their masters.
Chapter 175: The team that temporarily retreated, Shinra Tsubaki was moved
A lot of time had passed since the school bell rang, but there were still a large number of students lingering at the gate of Caihai College, waiting for someone, squatting, or chatting.
"Hey, look, over there..."
Among a group of students who were originally gathered at the school gate and talking to each other, one of them seemed to have seen something extraordinary and started shouting while pointing at the school gate.
"No way, so many..."
"What are these demons doing? They are gathering so many people at once. What do they want to do..."
"Maybe it's not the demons that are going crazy. Have you heard about what happened recently..."
The group discussed by many passers-by was a group of more than 40 people, among which the three leading figures were recognized by some students.
"Damn..."
In a corner, a man in black who was staring at the school gate saw this scene, and a magic circle for communication appeared beside his ears.
"Boss, today's battle plan against the demons may be in trouble. Those scumbag bats have gathered under the Baal family, the Gremory family, and the Sidi family. Now they are leaving the school in a group. What should we do?"
"...
"Okay, I understand, Boss. I will notify everyone else to cancel today's operation."
The man in black nodded, hung up the communication, shook his head and looked at the demons gathered in front of him with an unhappy expression.
"You are so lucky. Be thankful that you have saved your life. You bastards, you won't be so lucky tomorrow."
The men in black were not the only team that temporarily changed their battle plan. Because the demons gathered together and left the school, several people who were monitoring the situation contacted the boss of their own team and finally came to a unanimous conclusion.
"Ah, it looks like Rias's method is quite useful. What a shame! I was ready to electrocute a few people to vent my anger, no, to establish my authority..."
Feeling that the gaze that had been staring at them since they came out had disappeared, Himejima Akeno dispersed the lightning in her hand and said with a smile.
"Don't say that, Akeno. I'm in enough trouble right now. If you start to quarrel with those people again, I'll really have to ask my brother for help."
Rias, who was walking in front, stopped when she heard Himejima Akeno's voice and turned back to complain.
"Hehe, it's really rare to see you in such a mess, Rias."
"Yes, so knowing that your master is in a lot of trouble right now, can a certain queen find a way to help my master solve the problem?"
