Trying to Create a New Power

"You can wake Rias up?" Virgil muttered. "No matter how hard you try, that's impossible."

"You never know."

"If that was indeed possible, I would have done it from the start. Why would I want to keep my beloved granddaughter in slumber if her lover has come to visit her?"

"Not, visit. I am here to take her back with me." Rudy glared at Virgil from the corner of his eyes and said, "And you are the one who put her in the slumber."

"That was a punishment, as I said."

"Yeah, yeah. Your stupid rules and stupid punishments."

"It wasn't the punishment. It was to send a message," Virgil uttered in a low voice. "Had I forgiven Rias for loving a human, my citizens would have thought I did that because she is a royal and my grandchild. Then, others would try it too, and I couldn't 't possibly punish them then."
