"You may reveal the information to your peerage under conditions that they can't talk about this." Serafall with a serious tone explained.
"I understand/ Thank you."
"Good, then it settles it." The Leviathan was satisfied, for now. She will be watching though.
"Umm… so, Sister… is he… well… you know…" Sona fiddled with her dress for a second.
She is not used to the serious and, well… Satan-like version of Serafall…
"Know what?" The older Sitri moved her head aside for a second, trying to see what her little sister meant by that.
"You like... him?" Sona asked with slightly flushed cheeks.
Serafall slightly giggled for a second.
"You didn't hear this from me. But, yes… It would appear that I have things for men who can build wonders from scraps they find in a garage." She started talking animatedly before getting serious once more.
"That's why you two will be on your best behaviour. I was working for years to build trust with him. And I don't want to lose it now."
"Sister… won't it be easier for you to just say… that you like him?" Sona tried to reason with that.
Snort
"I was summoned by him because I am Satan Leviathan. I was summoned to help him to set up pipes for his workshop because I am Leviathan and an expert in water manipulation." She said while rolling her eyes.
"I told you, didn't I? He has already installed a pantheon-worthy security system in his home town being the same age as you two."
""WHAT!!!""
"He is the same age as us?/ He summoned you for what?" Both of them were shell shocked to hear that.
"This means that I was qualified enough to be summoned."
"But… you are a Satan sister!" Sona pointed out with disbelief.
"And he single handedly, with a blob of clay built a surveillance system which will last as long as Earth rotating around the sun. What of it?" Serafall said with an eye roll. Which made both of the younger girls shut their mouths before they could say anything.
"Creating things is much harder than destroying them. While my power is impressive he has already found ways to beat me."
"...He did?" Sona squeaked funnily.
Sigh
" I already told you that he is a once in millennia genius. Do you think I will fall in love with someone average?" Serafall was getting tired of everyone looking down on her Marcus like that. Sirzechs did… well not anymore… after seeing Signer he became a fan… and now her sister still doesn't get the message when she said Pantheon level security. It means security is good enough for a pantheon!
"No...I mean… he is a human…"
"And what is that supposed to mean? He can't be smart?" Serafall said with raised eyebrows. Is her sister getting biased?
"How… does smart have to do anything with strength?" Rias asked from the side. Earning a couple of stares from the Sitri siblings...
Sona just groaned. It seems she was too short-sighted…
"Easy enough… for example, he could build a gun which could kill an Ultimate Class Devil." Serafall gave them an example with a smile.
"That's simply impossible," Rias said while shaking her head.
"You want to bet on it?" The Satan Leviathan said with a smirk.
The redhead girl quickly shook her head. No, she won't be betting on this while Sona started to understand the scale of things.
If her sister is willing to bet then this human indeed is capable of doing such things. Then this is very big indeed. This means that he is smart to an absurd level. Now the younger Sitri indeed wants to meet him.
"Wise choice. And since we are discussing him like this I expect both of you to keep this to your peerage and nothing more. You can tell them that if they fail they will have to deal with me."
"I understand, sister. There is no need for you to threaten me so many times…" Sona said with a sigh.
"I am only making sure you two understand."
""We do…""
~~~~~~~Marcus~~~~~~
With a burst of light, I appeared in a Victorian mansion. This was my first time travelling through a teleportation circle.
The experience was quite… seamless… one moment I was in my garage and next, I was in a large room.
The difference though was the timezone. When I left my garage it was nearly midnight but, when I arrived here it was morning.
"This is the Sitri estate in Kuoh. Follow me, let me show you where they are." Serafall motioned for me to follow her as we started walking towards a pair of double doors.
Without wasting any time she opened them and entered inside while I followed after her.
The first thing I saw were four females waiting for me.
The one standing out the most was the redhead. For the simple reason that she was a pure redhead.
I have never seen someone with pure crimson hair like that before. A ginger? Yes, I saw plenty of those. But a redhead like that? Nope. Well, I am in what is considered an 'anime' world, not that I saw any black lines on my body or anything like that…
I am pretty sure some world governing laws are much weaker, my technology is a proof of that. I am having a much easier time with them. Either that or, my genius simply went up to a completely different plateau, so much so that I find making things much easier.
Back to the matter at hand. Apart from that beautiful hair, she was a carbon copy of Venelana. A Younger and much more naive version with longer hair.
Next was the black-haired girl next to Rias Gremory. Her Queen Akeno Himejima… a girl who is the daughter of Baraqiel. One of the top dogs of Grigori and Lightning of the God… a girl who doesn't want to use her inborn powers because she doesn't like her father…
My only comment to that is… she's stupid and wasteful…
Next on the other side of Rias, is Serafall's little sister Sona Sitri. I can see some similarities between them. Where Serafall can easily pass as a socialite, Sona can pass as a librarian. The sharp glasses only add to that. The only difference is that she has striking purple eyes.
As for the last, it's Sona's Queen who is quite similar to Sona with sharp glasses, a girl from a prestigious clan of exorcists. With a Sacred Gear no less. Just like Rias Queen this one had similar treatment because of how different she was.
All I can say about this, it is basically like saying: one's trash is another's treasure.
'Now that I think about it, this place has an enormous concentration of Sacred Gears. I have not even found one in my hometown. Yet this small town has more than a few running around.
Well, it's either something to do with the amount of magic in the air or just some main cast, main city bullshit.' Internally I sighed.
'Since I am here I might as well find out all those little secrets.' Smiling to myself I walked forward toward the group of girls.
They all looked nervous, like they were standing on extremely thin ice. It seems Serafall words have cut them very, very deep.
~~~
The small group of devil ladies waited with a nervous look as they knew the current Leviathan would soon bring over the genius inventor Marcus Goldman.
The moment they learned his name they tried to find anything they could about him.
All they got was classified information under Satan Leviathan's seal. So they tried to do the same in the human world…
It was the same… they could not find anything for the simple reason that he lives on the other side of the globe.
In other words, there was nothing on him. even if it was, it's under Serafall's watchful eye.
They didn't even know what he looked like!
When the doors opened their backs strengthened and they tried to look as professional as they could.
The moment Sona and Rias saw him they were having a hard time believing that he was the same age as they! He looked far too mature!
Broad shoulders, short black hair, striking brown eyes, he looked as if he knew what he was doing, but the most striking thing about him was...
'His magic level is even bigger than ours!!!' Sona thought with a little bit of sweat rolling down her forehead, her Queen was the same as she fixed her glasses for a second. She has never met someone their age with this much magic!
'Is he truly a human?' Rias tried to comprehend how this guy has this much magic!
While Akeno wanted to lick her lips after seeing him…
