Serafall was in a state of confusion and took several deep breaths before she was able to calm down.
Then, she looked at the silver-haired girl with complicated eyes.
"Why...Grayfia."
Grayfia looked indifferent and she asked, "Why what?"
"Why... would you rather serve a monarch who is not from our clan than join us?"
Serafall whispered a question that had been buried in her heart for a long time.
"If you are willing to come to our side, the civil war among the Devil clan will surely be quelled sooner."
Facing that serious, uncompromising gaze, Grayfia calmly stated the reason.
"I used to be the daughter of the Lucifuge family, so my position is contradictory with you, so I can't do that."
"It's not too late now! Follow me and leave immediately. The rebels are much more harmonious than you think. They will definitely not mind your previous identity and will gladly accept your joining!"
Accept with pleasure?
No, this is just Serafall's naive wishful thinking.
Grayfia knew very well that she was already an "outsider" with countless demons from both the Rebels and demon king factions on her hands, and would be ostracized and treated with hostility wherever she went.
Of course, even if she really wouldn't be excluded, Grayfia would still refuse Serafall's invitation.
because--
"I am now a servant of Absolute Evil."
That's right! This time, even if threatened with death, Grayfia would never break the promise she made to Ryan!
Grayfia Lucifuge, willing to spend her entire life with "Absolute Evil"!
"We used to be best friends."
Perhaps sensing the unshakable determination in the other's eyes, Serafall sighed with a dejected expression.
Grayfia remained silent.
It's true that they were best friends, at least... decades ago.
"Serafall Sitri."
After calling out the girl's full name, a silver-white light manifested by magic appeared on Grayfia's body, and she raised the magic spear in her hand and aimed it at Serafall.
"I am warning you as a friend from the past. Leave immediately! Otherwise, I will kill you here in the name of the commander of the army of 'absolute evil'!"
Although she knew that the Rebels would have to be dealt with later, Grayfia still showed her friend her last bit of kindness.
At least, before the master issues an absolute order, it would not hurt to let the 'good friend' live for one more day.
"You really haven't changed at all, Grayfia."
Seeing the tenderness hidden beneath the cold appearance, Serafall couldn't help but smile.
"But I refuse."
As she spoke, Serafall put away her smile and unleashed an astonishing amount of magic power.
"The order I received is to annihilate the 'Demon King Faction' and the 'Absolute Evil Faction' in the midst of a chaotic battle!"
Since there was no way to talk about it, then she could only knock out her good friend and forcibly take her back with her. In consideration of her succession to the position of the clan Sitri and her own strength, no one would dare to have any objection!
Serafall thought so and smiled brightly at Grayfia.
"Grayfia! The last battle ended in a draw. This time I will definitely defeat you completely and take the title of the strongest female devil in the underworld!"
"Just what I want."
Serafall is eager to fight, and so is Grayfia.
Finally, after their eyes met -
Just like magnets attracting each other, they rush forward at the same time.
"Freeze into ice, Grayfia!"
Serafall's enormous ice magic power spread out, causing the surrounding area to instantly condense into ice over a very wide range.
With a wave of her arm, Grayfia easily shattered the ice and snow world created by Serafall once again.
"Hah!"
With a loud shout, Serafall refused to give in. A large number of ice cones condensed from the void and poured down on Grayfia like a rainstorm.
Upon seeing this, Grayfia deployed hundreds of magic circles, and the magic spears and magic ice cones that flew out of them canceled each other out and disappeared.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The two girls launched powerful attacks at each other in mid-air, directly distorting the terrain below.
We can't go on like this.
Serafall's proud ice magic is enough to freeze an army, but even so, it is unable to freeze Grayfia alone. At most, she can only make her exhale white breath.
If we continue to waste energy like this, there is no doubt that the game will end in a draw.
As Serafall became more and more anxious, she increased the release of her magic power. Hundreds of spears ice attacks were about to be launched, encircling Grayfia in the center.
But it's useless.
Grayfia still managed to offset all the magic bombardment with her equal magic power.
The intensity of the battle between the two made all the demon soldiers below retreat far away. After all, this was no joke, if they were accidentally affected, they would be blown into pieces.
"Damn it! Can't you just lie down and let me take you away, Grayfia!"
Serafall shouted in dissatisfaction, as if to vent her inner dissatisfaction, and another batch of countless magical attacks swept towards Grayfia.
"You still love dreaming, Serafall."
Responding coldly, Grayfia dodged all attacks flexibly and threw the silver spear in her hand at Serafall with all her strength.
The silver spear with a flashing sharp tip cut through the air and headed straight for the target.
Upon seeing this, Serafall immediately raised her arm and gripped the silver spear with force.
Snap!
The approaching silver spear was instantly frozen into ice and shattered.
Both of them are among the strongest female Devils, so their strength is naturally equal. It would be difficult to determine the winner within a few days.
With the determination to take Grayfia away, Serafall must win even if it is a difficult and protracted battle!
"Huh?"
However, just as Serafall released her magic power and prepared to use her own ultimate move, she found that her opponent suddenly restrained her breath and magic power and returned to the ground.
What happened?
Just as Serafall was puzzled, an unbelievable scene happened.
The arrogant Grayfia actually knelt on one knee with a respectful look on her face and lowered her head.
Then, in Serafall's field of vision, an unfamiliar black-haired young man walked out from the white mist. He first glanced at Grayfia who was kneeling beside him, and then glanced at Serafall who had a dull expression.
"Why don't you continue? Actually, I really like watching you cute girls fight~"
With that handsome face, and a hearty smile that would make any woman feel favorable towards him, the black-haired young man said something make any woman want to beat him.
