Chapter 12: Raiser Phenex, My Future Brother - In - Law

Chapter 12: Raiser Phenex, My Future Brother - In - Law (The Intervension. Tension Between Strongest Youth and Fake Lucifer)

The hall of Phenex has been filled with elite devils since noon even though the engagement time between Raiser and Rias will be held at exactly midnight. The engagement party was very grand, no wonder because one of the engaged parties was one of the Pillar heirs who was the current Pillar Lucifer from. However, when compared to other weddings in Meikai the party was relatively ordinary for a Pillar heir, the strange thing was the large number of elders who attended the event.

Demon elders are figures with both military and political experience. Their strength could not be compared to that of the four Maou, but their military experience was far above that of the four Maou. They consist of several demons who tasted the bitterness of the Great War as well as several former clan heads.

Rias was already in the makeup room of the Phenex family with several demons and Venelana herself doing the makeup. Her beautiful face was not at all excited even though this magnificent party was held for her, of course who could be happy if she had to be side by side with someone she didn't love, again she hated her existence. Meanwhile, Raiser is unknown.

In the Meikai Elders' banquet room, the 10 elders sat on their luxurious chairs accompanied by a cup of greenish lemonade.

“You are all aware of the current political situation?” The elder sitting at the very end started the chat with a little small talk, he took a sip of his lemonade a little waiting for a response from the other elders.

"Well, there is nothing we can do. Compared to us, the two of them are more famous and influential in the minds of the Meikai people. We can only choose to side with those that bring more purpose to them." Another elder replied in a tone without enthusiasm, he chose to play - slowly twirling the glass, his gaze fixed on the surface of the lemonade that rose and fell for his actions. A second later, the surface of the lemonade rippled due to an increase in the energy output of one of the elders and all of the elder's eyes were fixed on the elder who was sitting right in the middle, his lemonade glass had broken and the lemonade had evaporated just as a result of his energy pressure. However, nobody was intimidated at all, their expressions were flat and they thought it was not a threat.

"It is true. The presence of the new Lucifer and the Strongest Youth lowered the dignity of the elders in front of the Meikai people. It is undeniable that we are now only symbols for the Meikai people that democracy and politics are still going on. However ..."

"You don't need to explain, we understand, Zekram - sama" The second elder spoke cut off the words of the most respected elder in Meikai, namely Zekram Bael who still serves as the head of the Great King Bael family, the second highest pillar after Lucifer. He is a demon who has led Bael for nearly a thousand years.

"We can't do anything. The engagement between Raiser Phenex and Gremory Rias will definitely be canceled. Sirzech Lucifer and Uzumaki Naruto have the same goal of that, but there are several points that are different, where Sirzech tries to blame Raiser while Naruto trying to defend Phenex. I firmly support Naruto, he has signed a contract to follow our pure devil program, Ajuka - sama and Serafall - sama even helped Naruto to realize our program. "he continued with a thin smile.

“How can you be sure this isn't a political game? Surely you are aware of what that brat meant when one year ago he challenged Grayfia Lucrifuge!” Zekram replied fiercely. All the elders are silent, yep only the Maou and the elders and some critical demons who understand the true meaning of Naruto's actions. It meant to declare Naruto's existence and strength at that time, Naruto indirectly stated that he was strong, intelligent, and understood the Meikai political situation. Naruto stated that he could not be used as a puppet for Meikai, he had his own views, and he was not afraid to oppose the elders.
