"Is Miss Rias planning to use me?"
"No, that's not what I meant! I had no intention of taking advantage of you whatsoever!"
"I am neither Rias's boyfriend nor her fiancé; we are merely business partners. Why should I be the one to become that person?"
"that is because……"
"I don't want any lies in this conversation."
Baili now holds the initiative.
His words were sharp, aiming to make the red-haired girl in front of him explain herself clearly.
"As Baili Jun just said, we only have a cooperative relationship and no closer relationship, but I believe this situation only applies to the present!"
"Miss Rias...does the future mean things will change?"
"I want to make changes now."
Rias took off her coat.
Her long dress was also untied and fell onto the sofa.
Beneath her glamorous attire lies a stunning figure and fair skin.
"Before coming here, I chose my favorite set..."
Black lace and ruffles adorn exquisite, beautiful, and charming close-fitting garments.
Upon seeing this, Baili immediately stood up and prepared to lead his men to the bedroom.
However, the light of II Jiujiu San burst forth at this moment.
A magic circle appeared outside the courtyard on the first floor.
When everything returned to calm, a woman dressed as a maid entered the house.
Baili could have killed him instantly, but he didn't take any action.
Because he knows the other person's identity.
The Silver-Haired Annihilator – Griffith Lucidus.
When Baili first saw her, the image of Izayoi Sakuya from Gensokyo popped into his mind.
Rias was quite surprised by her appearance.
"Greyfeld?!"
“This is truly unseemly. You are the next head of Gremory, so please show some self-respect. Now let’s go back, Miss Rias.”
"Wait, Griffith, I...!"
"Do you want Gremory to become a laughingstock?"
"I'm not……"
"Of course I believe you."
Griffith changed the subject
"Besides, there's more than one way to change the current situation. Have you forgotten about ranking games?"
"That is……"
Rias knew, of course.
Ranking games —
This is one of the ways to determine the status of a demon.
The battle competition is led by the highest-ranking demon king, who leads his retinue. The competition has many different rules and restrictions. How to use the rules and restrictions and make good use of the terrain will affect the king's evaluation. Based on the performance in the competition, the demons who receive high evaluations can rise in status.
At the same time, a victory or defeat can also be combined with other bets, which is a way for demons to resolve disputes, determine strength and weakness, and train their abilities.
"Riesel's strength should not be underestimated, especially if we were to have a ranking game."
"You chose to come here because you trust this gentleman beside you, didn't you? He... must have the potential to become a powerful kin."
Gloria's gaze fell on Baili.
Baili, who was being stared at by the demon maid, immediately denied it.
"I do not intend to become Rias's familiar."
He emphasized
"In my opinion, Rias is a very powerful demon, but she still has her limits, as long as she stays within the realm of demons."
"What do you mean?"
Griffith looked doubtful, while also staring at Baili with a scrutinizing gaze.
"Anyway... Rias, you should go with this maid first, and we'll see you tomorrow."
"tomorrow?"
"I will go there in person tomorrow to Kuoh Academy."
"Wait, Baili Jun, you need to know about Riesel's situation..."
"It goes without saying."
After interrupting Rias's discovery, Baili added a key point.
“I never said I wouldn’t accept your proposal, so I’m going to confirm it tomorrow.”
"Bailijun..."
Rias was at a loss for words.
Before being taken away by Griffith, she left behind one last sentence.
"I'm waiting for you……!"
A new magic circle was then generated, and the two disappeared.
After a while, Mai and Asia, who had gone out shopping, returned home.
The two girls noticed two water glasses on the low table in the living room.
"Lord Baili, have any guests visited us while we were away?"
"Yes."
Baili nodded and then explained the plan for tomorrow.
"I need to take tomorrow off; we're going out of town."
"Going out? Where are you going, Mr. Baili?"
Asia asked curiously.
"Komaou Academy."
Baili's goal was simple—
It's time to give the demons a real shock with their strength.

Thank you for your support, dear readers!
Thank you for the flowers, favorites, monthly passes, and ratings!
The author, who works on Xianyu (a Chinese online forum), was flattered.
However, there won't be many updates today. I'll double the amount tomorrow to make up for it!
Chapter 54 Ranking Game? Too much trouble, let's just start the war!
The next day.
Baili took out her phone and contacted Yukino Yukinoshita and Miko Yotsuya, who did not live together, through a chat group.
He issued a task, asking the two of them to help him, Mai, and Kirisu Mafuyu ask for leave.
Although Yukino and Miko initially agreed, after finding out the reason, they changed their minds and chose to refuse...
[Yukino Yukinoshita: Please allow me to accompany you on this afternoon's operation! As for requesting leave... I have Hiratsuka-sensei's contact information, or Yui-chan can help!]
[Yotsuya Miko: If we're going to fight those guys, I hope I can come in handy! There are plenty of excuses for not going to school; Hana will cover for me!]
Simply put, neither of the girls wanted to be left behind.
Since Baili is going to fight, they also need to contribute their share; it's that simple.
Generally speaking, more people means more strength.
However, for Baili, the girls are not of much use at present.
But then he thought about it.
Fighting demons may lead to rapid growth.
Just like a linen garment.
She also went through many battles against evil spirits and monsters before she was able to acquire her ultimate move.
[Baili: If you insist, please come over this afternoon. I will send you my home address.]
Yukino Yukinoshita: Okay.
[Yotsuya Miko: Change your clothes right now!]
It seems they all plan to come find Baili ahead of time.
After ending that communication, Baili then opened the messages he had previously received on his phone.
This message was sent by Akeno Himejima after Rias was taken away by Griffith.
It briefly explains what a ranking game is and also provides a rough list of Riesel Phoenix's allies.
"To solve Rias's problem, we must defeat this guy named Riesel."
"Is he a high-ranking demon like Rias?"
“That’s right, that’s why she has so many familiars, at least four times the number of Rias’s.”
