24 Serafall Leviathan

When Raynor opened his eyes he frowned for a bit. It appears he is sticking around in his world. He truly wanted to beat shit from that delusional Prince.

And it's not because of books or plot. He simply dislikes that this delusional moron thinks he is special from birth. It's simply disgusting. Because you become special, not born special.

It's like this princeling showing the middle finger to everyone who works hard their whole life.

'Maybe I am going to pull Aegon the Second move and feed him to Verrmax.'

After thinking for a bit Raynor got out of bed and proceeded to take a shower and then dress up.

Once he did that he went to the kitchen and checked what he could eat.

'Oh…Tea! Holy fuck! Sandwiches!!!'

For a second his knees nearly gave in. He has not had that stuff for 5 years!

He quickly proceeded to make some.

Though this time around he left his home on time. He didn't expect for certain someone to wait for him outside his house.

"Sona, you could have knocked, I could have made some tea and sandwiches. I haven't had those for years!"

"It's fine. I already had my breakfast."

"That's not the point. Geez." He walked over and hugged her before taking her hand and starting to walk towards their school.

This made her blush for a bit before she got over it. She is still baffled by how assertive and aggressive he is. From her studies, it takes time for such close contact to develop. After all, it's only the second day!

"I do want to warn you. My sister is going to do her observations about you. She is very protective of me."

"In simple terms, she is a siscon?"

The girl rolled her eyes at that word.

"Yes. And she is one of the Satans so…be careful, and the same don't hurt her. I know you are capable." Sona was in a taught spot. She doesn't want anything to happen to her sister and him. So, all she can do is warn him.

For a second Raynor hummed to that request thinking about it. He kinda remembers Serafall vaguely. The girl is cute and has assets, plus twin tails.

"Since my future Princess asks. I won't do anything to her unless she is the one who starts it."

The Heiress slowly nodded. Though she was slightly blushing that he kept calling her Princess.

"That's all I ask. By the way, she told me some interesting things. She said you have godly essence, and souls are all over you. She was quite spooked by what she sensed from you."

"Oh? She can sense all that? Interesting."

'Well, she is a Satan. So I doubt her senses are bad.'

"Yes…so…umm…"

"As I said before, I am a Hunter and a Shaman. When I hunt I collect everything and hunt them in the most literal sense in the eyes of magic. Once I skin them and remove organs the ritual is complete, this way I acquire the soul as well."

"...does this work on people too?"

"No. To collect people's souls I need to carve a different totem and begin another ritual."

As he said that he showed the tattoo on his hand.

"When a Lord went to look for me for various reasons. He wanted me to serve him. I didn't agree and started a war against the entire continent. After blowing up the capital, smart people decided to join me because it was the smart thing to do."

Sona gulped down internally. She realised that turning him into her Bishop or Knight is out of the picture.

"...You…went to war because you didn't want to serve a Lord…"

"Yes. He was a weakling, hiding behind his people. So I removed him. Well, one of my wolves ate him. It's kinda ironic that their banner is a direwolf."

The girl sighed, that's very dark humour.

"Let's stop this whole dark talk. Why don't I tell you about the supernatural of our world?"

"Sure. I do want to hear you talk."

Once more the girl was slightly flustered. She realised that he is a smooth talker. Did he pick this up in that death gore world?

Did he have some women there!?

This made her think. In the medieval world, people get together very early.

That's a thought for later for now she decided to explain things between factions. And things like that.

"Aren't we in a territory owned by a supernatural faction?"

"...Technically yes. But at the same time it's quite convoluted. The rise of the Abrahamic religion has shifted the territories. We are in a territory controlled by Angels but at the same time you could find someone from Slavic Pantheon. Both are true. To make this work Angels focus on areas where churches are while Slavic Pantheon would be more active in the forests."

"...This leaves cities unguarded doesn't it?"

"...Sadly yes. You would get stray devils, vampires, excommunicated exorcists, rogue Fallen angels… or some other mythical creatures."

"I see. So, I might be able to get into a fight."

For a second she smiled at him.

"I could invite you into a stray devil hunt. A devil must deal with a devil who went rogue and started to feast on people."

"That's going rogue on another level."

"Yes…let me tell you about the Great War and its consequences."

And so, she told him about the Three factions and their dwindling numbers, followed by how they're restoring them.

Raynor smiled internally at how cute Sona is. She doesn't hold back and tells him about the naughty Evil Pieces.

"...So a form of selling souls is still around."

"...Um…when you put it like that… I guess it is… but we don't take souls. We give them longevity and status, and a ladder they can rise. It's not perfect but many people accept it. Though what you said about yourself you would not agree to my proposal." She sighed with regret at the end of it. The girl still believes it will be better if he was the devil he would live longer with her.

"Is it because of the whole age thing? You do know that I practise blood and soul magic? I could live longer than you can."

For a second she frowned and realised that this is quite true.

"Though I don't understand why your race didn't invent fertility-based magic to overcome the weakness of low fertility."

"It's not as easy as you might think."

"It is. I have magic for it. If I can get it, the devil kind with superior magic should be able to do it as well."

"W-Wait what?"

"Yeah, I can use it on vegetation, or myself, or other people. It's quite nifty."

"Y-You… that's…"

Gears in Sona's brain started to spin. She could use this… it would be easy coasting for her if they somehow sell this to the devils!

'I could get a lot of breathing space from this!'

Indeed, she could make Devil Council, and her parents back off, and allow her to have an extremely powerful human as a husband!

Just thinking about this made her excited about the possibilities.

After talking for a bit more they arrived at the class. The whole time they were holding hands. Though the moment it was time to separate Raynor did something which made the glasses-wearing devil blush like a tomato. He kissed her on the lips and then went to his seat.

Sona was rooted in place for a few moments before she dashed to her seat.

Everyone was baffled to see the nerd who turned wild to have this foreign girl as his girlfriend from the looks of it!

The whole class went ablaze! While Sona has buried her head into her backpack. Not showing it to anyone.

'Damn, everyone thinks it's a big thing.'

Not that there were many people in the class, to begin with. He can see that it will be an even bigger thing later on.

And he was right.

Arno, his best friend when arrived at the class, learned quickly about this as well.

"Bro! Second day and you already have a foreign girl as your girlfriend!?"

"Yeah. I had a chess match against her in Stockholm. I won, and it was enough for her to be interested in me."

"Wow… that."

"Yep, she is a Heiress to a devil family. So, yeah supernatural girlfriend for the win!"

"...Wait…WHAT!?"

"Gods, why are you so shocked? I was spirited away, that's enough to know that the supernatural is real." Raynor rolled his eyes.

"Bro! You need to teach me magic! Who knows what can happen!" Arno realized how fucked up he is…

"...I guess… though my style is not that easy, and you need to have a bloodline. Just in case we can talk with Sona about this."

"...Mate…she is a devil…"

"Indeed, and that makes it even more interesting, doesn't it?"

Arno just face-palmed upon hearing that.

~~~

When the long break time started Raynor approached Sona's table and the girl still had a thin blush on her cheeks.

"Sona, let's go get something to eat."

"...Okay."

Eventually, she agreed. Not that she can ignore him for long. She can guess from his character that he would make her even more embarrassed until she snapped out.

Something she doesn't want to test.

As she got out of her seat she decided to introduce him to one of her followers.

"Raynor, this is my Queen, Tsubaki Shinra."

The girl did a small bow. She already heard some things about him from her King.

"Raynor Valeron. Nice to meet a fellow warrior."

"...You can tell?"

"Your Footing and behaviour reveal such things. I assume you use Naginata as well."

"..."

"..."

"...Japanese culture. I know a thing or two." He said with a shrug before motioning to follow him.

A few steps later he looked at Arno who was still sitting at the table as if rooted in place.

"Stop lollygagging and come over."

"R-Right…"

After this, the four people left the classroom and proceeded to walk.

"Are we going to the cafeteria?" Sona asked him as they were taking the stairs to the ground floor.

"No, that food grosses me out. We are going to eat some game meat I have. I am going to prepare some barbecue."

"Oh…"

While Arno gulped down with hunger.

The pair of girls looked at each other, it appears the blonde liked his food.

'Is he a good cook as well?' Sona was thinking to herself. While she has her servants. Quite a bit of those, it makes her want to learn to cook as well since Raynor can do it.

After going outside to the same place as yesterday Raynor proceeded to take out all the furniture from the inventory before proceeding to cook the slabs of meat he had.

He cut them into small pieces and prepared the marinate, a bunch of veggies, and some rice…

"...that's a lot of items you have."

"You don't say. I have plundered an entire city and put all the loot into my inventory. I have had enough food for several years."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Anyway, Arno wants to learn magic. What is the best way?"

Raynor's comment made the two girls look at the blonde for a bit.

"I assume he knows what we are?" To Sona's question, the blonde stiffly nodded.

"Magic of humans is mathematical, this means you need to be good at equations, though you could pass some of them into your staff or some other Foci.

The fastest way to learn would be to become a devil. That way you could use magic with your imagination."

"In other words, there is no easy way," Raynor said while frying the meat on a fire.

"...No, there is not. Unless certain circumstances are met. There is an array of energies in this world. You know that better than anyone. Souls, blood, nature… even we devils don't have such an array of things you have."

"Hmm… true, Arno if you want I can take you to my lands and we can make some rituals so that you could access the magic I use..."

This made him slightly weary.

He was between two difficult choices.

"I suppose I can take your offers. Though what things I would need to do?"

"...Not going to lie, you would need to learn how to hunt, and then take someone's life."

"...fuck…" The blond swore under his breath when he heard that.

"Yes, it's right of conquest."

"What is that?" Sona asked curiously. She has heard something similar before but never thought it existed.

"Symbolism in blood magic is important. It can be blood forcefully taken, or blood given by free will, there is the right of conquest as well where the blood of the conquered belongs to you."

"By following this trend, Arno would get the blood of someone who can use magic, this way accessing the supernatural."

"Don't worry. I will find you some rapist or something, and you will have your moral ground intact."

Arno snorted with amusement.

"No wonder you found yourself with a devil girlfriend."

Sona narrowed her eyes at him.

"I haven't killed an innocent person before if this is what you are implying."

"Hoh? We haven't told stories about our first kills yet." Raynor quite happily said that which made everyone sigh.

This guy was on a completely different level.

"I start first."

The Wolf King then proceeded to tell them about his life as a hunter, before he started waging war on a continent sized Kingdom. How his stuff was stolen and how he slaughtered a group of bandits and tamed his first pack.

The thing was they were quite sucked in by his storytelling. The reason for that was that he had quite a bit of time practising telling them. Either to Lords around the dining table, when he was in the Army, or when he was already living in Dragonstone and was telling things to his ladies.

~~~~~~After School~~~~~~

After making plans with Arno and taking Sona to her house, Raynor was walking home.

Once again he sensed a bubble of magic settled around him.

'A barrier…'

He looked around for a bit before he saw a girl with black hair styled in twin tails. She had quite a big burst and was blue-eyed. She was dressed in a pink magic girl suit.

"You have me at a disadvantage."

"...Raynor Valeron, I am Serafall Leviathan."

"..."

"What does a Satan want with me?"

Serafall noticed how the air got stiff around him. He was almost radiating bloodlust.

'This guy… he is seriously dangerous.'

"...You practise blood magic and soul-related magic, this kind of art has been practised by Devils of old and they are the most diabolical of them all."

*Snort*

"My question to you is, is a weapon like a steel sword evil? No, it's not. Magic is a weapon just like a steel sword. I see it as a means to kill my enemies.

For a devil, you are quite soft."

At that moment black miasma surrounded her.

"I can't allow someone like that to be around my baby sister. "

"Hoh? Do you think you are capable of doing that?"

Serafall snorted and lifted her staff and there was a lot of ice…freezing everything in the path.

But around Raynor who by that point cut the ice with a casual swing of a sword made from water.

'What the hell is that!?' Her eyes widened as she saw the weapon! She had never seen anything like that! It's like the weapon is holding some sort of strange magic and is made from live magic!

"Sona said not to hurt you. I guess I am going to spank you into obedience."

"...You are a mere human with a little bit of magic, do you think you can defeat me?"

As Serafall said her magic roared to life it was enough to suffocate people just from standing in front of her. But at that moment several glowing white arrows were rushing at her.

'W-What the hell!'

***BOOM***BOOM***BOOM***

The Devil girl needed to dodge all of those blasts!

"...You…You are using souls as explosives!!!"

She said with disbelief and utter shock! Not even Death Gods do that!

Before she could hear his answer the guy was already in front of her.

To counter this she froze everything around her including air.

But, once again with a howl of a wolf, her ice was simply shattered as if it was something simple.

'What is this thing? My ice doesn't work on him at all!'

The water sword went for her with the intention of killing which sends goosebumps through her body. She tried to block that sword with her magic wand which was the real thing. Though her wand was like a piece of paper in front of the water sword as it cut it cleanly.

'Shit…he is seriously dangerous with this weird stuff he is using.'

Then his other hand went to her neck and grabbed her.

"Agh!!!"

"Got you~"

"...Just because…"

"Your Sitri magic is elemental at its core. My anti-elemental magic cancels and ignores anything you cast."

"Then I use pure magic!"

Serafall was quite happy that he was helping her to get the upper hand but that grin on his face sent warning bells to her.

"Sorry, but you are mine. I always wanted Satan as a summon."

His words confused her as she started gathering magic but at that moment her world started to spin. She was feeling sick!

"W-What did you do!?"

"Got some of your blood~"

She then remembered that when he grabbed her neck, he grabbed with force! He cut her!

"...D-Damn…"

Then her brain got blank as he claimed her lips and some weird magic started to invade her body.

She tried to resist but it was like water and air… her magic just passed through while it started to consume her whole body.

Eventually, he finished his kiss and let her go. Serafall back peddled several steps before dropping on her ass. Something is happening to her that she can't control and it simply terrified the shit out of her!
