Valerie Tepes

Jeanne and Rossweisse followed everyone to meet the new queen of the Tepes Faction. They weren't sure about this meeting since they didn't know anything about this queen. They knew that the only person who knew about this person was Gasper who was dressed in a girly uniform at that moment. They had a lot of questions about why this boy loved to wear a girl's uniform or other things, but they knew that wasn't important right now.

Valerie Tepes.

Valerie is a young woman with short blonde hair and red eyes. She is a very beautiful lady that carries the beauty of both humans and vampires.

It was their first time to see this girl, but they could feel that this girl was normal a girl. Then, they noticed a man who was standing beside this girl.

This man is wearing a black coat with a long mixture of black and blond hairs as well as heterochromatic eyes where his right eye is gold and his left eye is black and he has pointed ears.

The moment they looked at this man they suddenly felt powerful oppression coming from this man showing how powerful he was.

"Hello everyone!" Valerie smiled and said, "Gasper!"

"Valerie!" Gasper was excited when he saw Valerie. He ran toward Valerie with excitement since it had been a while since he had seen her.

Valier also opened her arms to hug her childhood friend.

The man beside Valerie didn't do anything when he saw Gasper's action.

Everyone seemed to be moved to see their reunion, however, they suddenly saw something strange.

Valerie looked up into something, but there was clearly nothing. "----_____ yes, I... ____-----"

Issei and Xenovia wanted to see what it was, but suddenly felt something that wanted to pull them.

"Don't look!" Rossweisse hurriedly said.

Issei and Xenovia who heard Rossweisse's shout hurriedly looked away. They felt a cold sweat on their back after they had looked away from the space where Valerie was looking.

"W - What is that?" Issei was clearly confused and didn't know what was happening.

Rossweisse thought for a while and said, "I guess this is a "dead language". She is talking with something that isn't alive or dies."

"What do you mean by that?" Irina asked.

"She is the holder of the Holy Grail and she has an ability to understand the existence that doesn't exist in this world," Rossweisse said. "Just remember to not look at the space where she is watching or you might be pulled by that existence." She thought to tell this to Yuuki after she had come back later.

"......"

Somehow it had become scary.

"Oh? Are you that Gasper?"

Suddenly they heard a voice and saw a man with a face similar to a doll. They saw the appearance of this person was a bit resemble Valerie and thought that he was Valerie's brother

The man looked at them and smiled. "Nice to meet all of you. My name is Marius Tepes and I'm Valerie's brother."

Valerie, who saw this man suddenly had a change of expression. Before her expression was very vibrant when she saw all of them, but the moment this man had come to her expression turned dim.

"Valerie?" Gasper was worried looking at Valerie. He was also quite scared of looking at Marius.

Valerie only moved her hand and made Gasper hide behind her.

"I am currently the Mayor of the Temporal Government of Tepes Faction," Marius said.

"Where is the previous king?" Rias asked.

"Hmm... I am not sure. He is probably running away and dying somewhere," Marius said with a serious expression.

"......."

"Anyway, I welcome all of you here," Marius smiled politely at everyone.

"......."

They couldn't show a happy expression hearing those words from Marius, but Rias who was the leader of this group needed to show her courtesy.

"Yes, I'm really thankful," Rias said.

"Hahaha, you don't need to worry about it," Marius said with a smile.

"Marius, do we have a guest? Why haven't you told me?"

Then another person walked inside the room.

They saw someone with silver hair who clearly resembled someone they had known, but they seemed to forget who it was when they saw this person. They saw this person was wearing similar clothes to Sirzechs. They also saw a little girl with a similar appearance to Ophis.

"Oh? Are you curious about her? Her name is Lilith." The man smiled and said, "She is my bodyguard." He looked at Rias and said, "It has been a while Rias Gremory."

Rias didn't say anything and looked at this man.

"How is your brother? I haven't seen him in a while," the man said.

"......."

"Oh? You might know me, but let me introduce myself." The man coughed and introduced himself. "My name is Rizevim Livan Lucifer and I'm from the previous generation of Satan Lucifer."

!!!!!!

They wouldn't expect to meet the previous generation of Satan Lucifer in this place. They thought for a while and wondered whether this person was the leader of the Old-Satan Faction on the Khaos Brigade.

They talked to each other for a while and both Marius and Rizevim clearly tried to taunt them, but still had a polite expression on their faces. They didn't stay too long and only let both Rias and Gasper be here since Gasper wanted to be with Valerie.

Rias also decided to accompany Gasper since she was worried about him.

The rest of them decided to go back to meet with Sensei and Yuuki since they knew that those two people might have some idea what to do in this situation.

---

"The head of Vladi wants to meet us?" Akeno asked.

"Do you want us to go with you to the research laboratory?" Azazel asked.

The two female vampires nodded in front of them.

Then Issei along with everyone also came back and heard their conversation.

"I'll visit the laboratory later," Yuuki said.

Azazel nodded and said, "I'll go to the laboratory."

Yuuki was a bit curious about Gasper since he knew that Gasper wasn't a normal Dhampir. He knew that there was something different inside of Gasper and the head of House Vladi or Gasper's father should know what Gasper was.
