Moreover, unlike the uniform faces of the Einzbernburg maids, each of the Gremory maids had her own unique features, but without a doubt, they were all beautiful.
Seeing the envy in Chen Fang's eyes,
Scáthach felt a chill.
She never wanted to hear the name "maid Zi" again!
Never again!!!
A woman with flaxen hair and a face that was 70% similar to Rias's, but with even bigger waves in her hair, slowly walked out. Beside her was a little boy with red hair.
As soon as the little boy appeared, he rushed into Rias's arms.
"Aunt Rias, it's been a long time!"
"Long time no see, Milicaes." Rias patted the little boy's head and smiled, after all, he was her nephew whom she hadn't seen in a long time.
Soon, Rias respectfully said to the woman in front of her, "Mother, I'm back."
"Welcome home, Rias, and everyone." The woman smiled, clearly happy that Rias was home. She had met Himejima Akeno, Koneko, and Kiba Yuuto before, but this was the first time she had met Chen Fang and his group of five. "Nice to meet you. I am Rias's mother, Vinerana Gremory."
“I am Asia Argento, it’s nice to meet you!” Asia, who was a little afraid of the 270, said to Vinilana.
"I am Saeko Busujima."
"I am Lia."
Scáthach didn't introduce herself, but simply nodded to Vinilana.
Chen Fang looked boldly at Vinilana in front of him: "As expected of Rias's mother, you are also a stunning beauty. I am Rias's man, Chen Fang."
Upon hearing Chen Fang's self-introduction,
Rias's face flushed red quickly.
Vinilana covered her mouth with her small hand, somewhat surprised by Rias. She hadn't expected Rias to bring a man home at this time. After all, Rias was about to play the King's Game, and if she lost, she would have to marry into the Phoenix family.
Although Vinilana, Rias's father, and Serjax had all prepared contingency plans for Rias to elope, the bold announcement at this time did indeed surprise Vinilana slightly.
“It seems you’re confident of victory too,” Vinilana said, leading everyone to the restaurant.
The Gremory family had prepared a feast after learning that Rias was coming back.
Rias's father, Geoticus Gremory, was sitting in the main seat. His usually dignified face immediately broke into a smile upon seeing Rias.
A complete slave to his daughter.
(PS: Hey guys, do you want both my sister-in-law Gloria and my mother-in-law Vinella?)
Chapter 182 The Ranking Game Begins, Himejima Akeno, Who Shows No Martial Morality
Geotix had a beautiful wife and daughter.
Thanks to him, Rias has this bright red hair, and it hasn't gone astray.
On the table,
Chen Fang's gaze remained fixed on Vinilana.
It's way too big.
Unlike Gorgon's upright posture, Vinilana appeared quite soft even from a distance.
If I had to use a comparison, Vinerana and Gorgon are like Akeno Himejima and Rias.
They are generally the same size, but their softness varies.
After a while,
Serjax and Griffith also appeared at the scene.
Serjax sat down opposite Rias, with Gryffindor standing behind her. Although she was Serjax's pawn, Gryffindor also held the roles of head maid and familiar. However, the main reason for this was that Gryffindor enjoyed playing the maid role.
Chen Fang's gaze kept shifting between Griffia and Vinilana.
Although the others noticed, they simply assumed that Chen Fang was just curious at that age.
Vinilana seemed to see Chen Fang's doubts and said, "Demons have a very long lifespan. Even if it's a hundred years or a thousand years, we will still look the same."
Of course, Chen Fang wasn't concerned about age. Given his level of evolution from a hundred refinements to godhood, he could easily live for tens of thousands or even millions of years, enough for him to live until he got tired of it.
“Rias told me you’re human,” said the old father-in-law, Geotix. “Are you interested in transforming into a demon? Human lifespans are too short. Even with great potential, it’s difficult to reach the maximum due to the limitations of lifespan.”
Geotix was undoubtedly thinking of Rias's best interests. He didn't want Rias to still be young and youthful hundreds of years later, while Chen Fang's grave was overgrown with grass.
This situation is definitely not acceptable.
"Don't worry about that. I'm perfectly content with my human identity." Chen Fang casually picked up a drink from the table, took a sip, and chatted casually with Geoticus and Serjax.
To be honest, the father and son were very approachable, and Chen Fang wasn't annoyed at all. On the contrary, when they talked about Rias's funny stories, the two of them became very talkative, and Chen Fang was happy to watch the drama unfold.
After the meal,
"Rias, why don't you take your family and friends and explore the Underworld?" Geotix said. "After all, it's not easy to come to the Underworld, so besides the ranking games, you should also experience the local customs and culture."
Rias agreed and reached out to hug Chen Fang's arm: "Chen Fang-kun, then I'll take you to see the scenery of the Underworld."
The group spent the entire afternoon wandering around the underworld.
In the evening,
Within a battleground in the Gremory territory,
The ranking game for Rias has officially begun.
Originally, they wanted to hold the competition at Kuoh Academy, but considering that Lysa of the Phoenix family had been treated like Chen Fang had been, and that Lysa would make a move after the competition ended, Serjax simply changed the location of the competition to the Underworld.
Of course, if they were to make a move, it would be the Phoenix family that would lose face.
Losing face in the underworld is one thing, at least it won't get out. But losing face outside, especially for someone like Phoenix with the characteristics of a phoenix who has difficulty conceiving and therefore values his reputation highly, can truly be a fight to the death.
As soon as Turkey Man Lessa appeared, he saw Chen Fang's handsome face with a big smile.
The embarrassing incident from a week ago, where Chen Fang rubbed my cheek with the sole of his foot, suddenly came flooding back to my mind.
This is an enormous disgrace!
The fifteen attendants behind him also revealed hostility.
Leisa wanted nothing more than to rush forward and kill the human who had insulted her.
But seeing Serjax and Geoticus beside Chen Fang, he had no choice but to suppress his anger.
Anyway, as long as I win the ranking game, Rias will still be mine.
At that point, the man in front of us will have no connection to the Gremory family, and when the Phoenix family uses all its resources to hunt him down, no one will stop us.
Seeing the fighting spirit in Leisa's eyes, Chen Fang's gaze was filled with contempt.
Before Rias went on stage, Chen Fang summoned a Crest Worm from the Imaginary Dimension and handed it to Rias: "Rias, take this with you. If you really can't deal with this turkey, use my power to solve it."
Rias took the Crest Bug.
Ignoring the reactions of those around her, she kissed Chen Fang on the cheek and said, "Thank you, Chen Fang-jun. I will definitely win."
Then he led his family and relatives toward the arena.
Such actions naturally drew angry expressions from the Phoenix family members who had come to watch the game.
"Hey, Geoticus, what's going on?" A strong voice came from the direction of the Phoenix family. The owner of the voice was the head of the Phoenix family.
This ranking game is very important.
If they win, the Phoenix and Gremory families will form an alliance.
They could even hold an engagement ceremony tomorrow and get married the day after.
But Rias Gremory kissed this man in public, doesn't that mean the Phoenix family's phoenix has a green hat?
It's important to know that the Phoenix and Gremory families weren't the only ones paying attention to this ranking game; other major families in the Underworld also sent representatives to watch. After all, Lysa Phoenix's strength was undeniable, winning eight out of ten matches in the ranking game, and the two matches she lost were due to her family's relationship with her.
No one has ever truly defeated Lysa in a ranked game.
Victory is already secured, or at least that's what everyone thinks.
Rias is just a high school girl, and no one thinks she can beat the already famous Raiza.
However, it's going to be disappointing.
This battle is different from the school battle in the original work; there are not many obstacles and buildings.
Yes, there are, but they are just simple battles.
As soon as they entered,
Before they could even discuss tactics, the group had already decided to act.
Having changed into a witch's outfit and made thorough preparations for battle before the competition, Akeno Himejima flew directly into the air.
Amidst the thunder, carrying the doubling magic array taught by Chen Fang, it struck directly towards the Raiza Familia.
The total time was less than two seconds.
Clearly, this guy had been timing his attacks precisely before the fight even started.
