Chapter 20

First out were the six rookie devils. Unsurprisingly, Rias Gremory and her peerage were out first and took their spot before the stage with the thrones on. She looked proud as she stood with her peerage, wearing a dark red dress similar to her mother's.

Following them was Sona Sitri in a dark blue dress and violet eyes shimmering with pride and confidence as her peerage followed her as well, one of whom he could sense contained a portion of the Dragon King Vritra. He would need to keep an eye on him in the future.

Following them was Sairaorg Bael, his brother. He is the strongest of his generation, as Naruto could see when he sparred with him.

Once Naruto saw the six Rookie Devils take their places, the Four Satan's and his old friends walked out and took their places on their thrones. The boys were all in elegant-looking dress shirts and pants with armor covering their chests and shoulders. Serafall had finally gotten rid of the costume and wore an elegant dark blue dress, which, although beautiful, still had a child-like look.

Fallbium Asmodeus sat on the left, Sirzechs and Serafall were in the center, and Ajuka sat to the right. Grayfia, unsurprisingly, was also there and stood directly to the right of the Sirzech's throne. He saw the Four Satans quickly take notice of him. Ajuka nodded at him, and Fallbium smiled since it was his first time seeing him. Serafall looked away in a huff, still annoyed about the other day, while Sirzechs stayed looking away from him.

Ajuka clapped his hands, indicating the meeting event had begun as a small group of older devils appeared next to the stage, with one stepping forward as it officially began.

"Good, you have gathered. You have been gathered here to check the faces of all of you who will carry the burden of the next generation. This is also a meeting performed over a regular cycle so we can ascertain the young devils." The elderly male devil spoke solemnly while clasping his hands together.

Next, Sirzechs leaned forward. "You six are all devils of the next generation that have true abilities that no objection can be raised against. That's why I want you to compete together before your debuts and increase your power this way."

"Rating Games. Joy." Naruto muttered as he took another drink, and small chatter broke out among the devils.

For a short while, Naruto tuned out to what Sirzechs was saying and instead started poking Kunou with his foot. This started a ten-minute poke war between the father and daughter. Yasaka would have stopped them, but Layla beat her to it when she noticed people staring at them.

If the Four Satans could tell he was not paying attention, they didn't show it.

Sirzechs continued. "I want you all to understand that you are the treasures of the Underworld. Now, we will all hear about your respective future goals. Be loud so everyone in the room can hear."

The first to respond to Sirzech's request was Sairaorg, who placed a hand firmly on his chest and grinned at the Leaders of the Underworld.

"My dream is to become a Satan."

"It's unprecedented for a devil from the Great King family to leave it." One of the elders spoke.

"When the people of the underworld feel that there's no choice but for me to become a Satan, then I will become one."

Next was Rias Gremory.

"My goal for the near future is to live as the next Gremory head and to win in each Rating Game battle."

The three other devils made their request, similar to Rias's goal, which also bored Kuroka. She complained that they could have been more original and wished someone would announce something different for a change. Devils were so dull, in her opinion.
