In the dining room, Jaune was sitting in the middle of Sona and Serafall, with Grayfia on the right of Serafall. It was peaceful…for the most part. Of course, there was tension, but it was not because of what one would think. It had nothing to do with the awkwardness of the four fornicating the previous night. No! It had to do with the other two in the dining room.
The place that Jaune and the others are in now is…The Sitri Clan. The person sitting across from Jaune and the others are Lord and Lady Sitri. They are staring at Jaune because of what they heard the previous night. After all, it was two of their children that was a participant in the noise they heard. Lady Sitri did not have much objection to what happened, but she wanted to know what kind of person her daughters picked for a partner. However, Lord Sitri was beyond angry. He did not mind her daughter choosing a partner of their own, especially when Sona announced how she would pick hers. What irritated him was their choice of it not being a Devil.
"You could have picked anyone, and you picked a human," said Lord Sitri. He was not amused. How could their bloodline remain pure by picking a human? Are his children willing to have their pure Devil Bloodline disappear? "I know I shouldn't have let you do as you pleased."
"Oh, hush now. They are mature enough to make their own choices," said Lady Sitri. She had no problem with their daughters' choices. It was not obvious, but she could feel the power from the 'Human' in front of her. She found him intriguing and, therefore, worthy of being her son-in-law. Her husband would have felt it if he had been calm. She looked at Jaune and spoke. "How about you tell us all about you."
Jaune shrugged his shoulder. It was only suitable to introduce himself to the parents of the woman that he copulated with. It would have been rude if he tried to leave without a proper explanation, especially since he made an Arc promise to Sona, Serafall, and Grayfia.
Thinking about it, Jaune would have to also speak to the person Grayfia has a fake relationship with. This was going to be a packed day; he knew it. But for now, he would try and deal with Sona and Serafall's parents.
Jaune spoke of who is to Lord and Lady Sitri. He hid nothing. Everyone at the table was dumbfounded at what he talked about. The things they heard about Jaune had not a single normality. He was not an average man. This made Lady Sitri chuckle. But, on the other hand, Lord Sitri was raging. How could they believe such worthless lies? And he was going to prove the lie before everyone.
"Boy! Do you dare to show proof of your capabilities?" said Lord Sitri. He sneered at the thought of a 'Human' like Jaune having such power. He ignored the fact that Jaune spoke about him no longer being human. "I shall show my daughters that you are nothing more than a fraud!"
Lord Sitri would have seen his daughter's looks if he were slightly calmer. But instead, they were laughing at their father's impending doom. The other day, Serafall did not realize what Jaune did when she released her power—but a moment of thought made her realize how baffling the situation was. Her magic was negated with absolute ease. Thinking about it, her father would learn never to underestimate his opponent.
Jaune looked at Lord Sitri. He was debating on whether to accept the man's proposal. However, he thought that this would be a good thing. This was a chance to ensure he would no longer try and stop their relationship—a single condition before he accepted the proposal.
"I'll accept your challenge. On one condition," said Jaune. He stared at Lord Sitri, who was staring at him. This was funny to him. He has fought people stronger than him. Hence, he found the intimidation funny. "Since you wish to make a point, I do, too. If you lose, you will accept this relationship. However, if I lose, I promise to stay away from Sona and Serafall for all eternity."
It was something bold. Lord Sitri liked Jaune's boldness. Maybe the 'Human' before him was not a wrong choice. He was still planning to show everyone that the young man's story was a fallacy. The young man would learn never to target a clan as highly regarded as theirs.
…
In the StuCo room, many people were panicking. Their leader was missing! They haven't heard from her since the battle. Could something have happened to her? They didn't know since they were not informed of anything. This is the first time that such a situation has occurred. They didn't know what to do.
"Everyone! Please, calm down," said Tsubaki. She was sure that nothing had happened to Sona since Serafall was with her. Although, it did not stop her from worrying a tiny bit since she had a taste of Jaune's overwhelming power. She was unsure if Serafall was much against him. However, he would not say that to the others who were already panicking. Instead, she assured them that Sona would be fine. "I'm sure nothing bad has happened to Kaichou. She is with her sister, one of the Satan in the Underworld."
"That is reassuring…if she was not against Jaune!" said one of the girls. She caused more panic with her statement. Finally, her statement caused her to hyperventilate. "What are we going to do?!"
Tsubaki had tick marks on her forehead. She was usually a very calm person, but right now, she wanted to bash this person's head. She was trying to calm down everyone, and she caused even more panic with a single statement. The girl was going to say something more, but she was hit on the head with something and got knocked out. It wasn't Tsubaki that did it. Looking around, Tsubaki didn't know who did it, but she was grateful for it.
…
In an open space in the Underworld, Jaune was facing Lord Sitri with the others far away, observing the happenings. Jaune was calm; he made a bet because he was sure he would win. This is not because he underestimates the enemy but because he has many trump cards. However, he would do his best to use them sparingly. They are trump cards for a reason. It might be needed someday in this world.
Lady Sitri was curious about who would win this spar. She could feel the strength of Jaune, but she didn't know the depth of it. However, she knew her husband, his capabilities were enough to pummel the power she felt from Jaune. At least, that is what she believed. Hence, the slight disappointment, as she would lose a prospective son-in-law whom she likes to a certain extent.
"Girls, what are the chances Jaune will win this bet?" asked Lady Sitri. "I like him. You girls did a great job choosing your partner if what I heard last night was any indicator. It would be a shame to lose him".
"He-he! There is nothing to worry about," said Serafall. She held her head high. She knew that Jaune was not going to lose. Not only because he was strong, but because he made a promise, an Arc never returned to their words. "Let me tell you a secret. Jaune can stop me".
That was all that needed to be said for Lady Sitri to be shocked. But, honestly, she was also skeptical of Jaune's claims. It was not easy to believe that he was that powerful. But she believes her daughter. Hence the shock.
"Oh, my," said Lady Sitri. She hid her smile with her hands. "This is going to be quite something for your father. No doubt he is going to lose. Your father was never strong enough to stop you."
Serafall chuckled. Her father had never been able to overpower her, but now he was going against someone even more powerful than she was. This is hilarious in her books. She was trying to imagine how her father would look after this ordeal.
While the female of the group was conversing, Jaune and Lord Sitri started their spar. From the get-go, Lord Sitri was not doing his best as he was skeptical of Jaune's capability. Plus, he was prejudiced when it came to the strength of humans. And he was not willing to believe that Jaune was a Dragon. It was unheard of for a human to gain Draconic lineage.
Lord Sitri started by sending a water snake at Jaune. He sneered and thought this would be the end of Jaune, but the magic merely bounced off his skin. This was incredibly shocking for him. It was not something he had ever seen before, more so on a human.
On the other hand, Jaune brought his hand forward and flicked a finger at Lord Sitri, who did nothing to dodge, thinking it was nothing more than provocation. He was wrong. The flick was strong enough to hit him from far away, send him flying, and cause his body to bruise. Indeed, this was unexpected.
Lady Sitri had her eyebrows raised. This was different from what she was expecting. Even with Serafall's statement, she thought her husband would resist more. But with what she saw, Jaune was not even trying, yet her husband was sent flying. What would have happened if Jaune had been more serious?
"Woo-hoo! Go, Jaune!" cheered Serafall. She was happy even though she knew Jaune couldn't lose. "Kick his ass! Show him never to underestimate you or anyone else ever again!"
Jaune rolled his eyes. But he was smiling at her, cheering. He looked at Lord Sitri, who stood back up from being knocked down. He did not give the man a chance to regain his senses. Using Shundō, he appeared behind Lord Sitri and kicked him in the back, sending him flying again. This time, however, he did not allow the man to meet the ground as he once again used Shundō to appear in his direction and kicked him again. Then he repeated this process until the man was utterly unconscious.
Lady Sitri watched her husband get decimated without a chance to retaliate after his initial attack. She chuckled. Her daughter had already informed her that Jaune could stop her, something her husband could not do. So what happened before her eyes was no longer surprising after the initial shock.
…
Somewhere. A little girl with sharp ears was active. She was searching, searching for someone who gave off the same 'energy' as her. The moment it appeared on Earth, she did not stop looking. The people with her were curious as to why the change in attitude. Usually, she would be sitting around doing nothing, but this time she was busy. One of the people in the room with her is curious. She had black cat ears and was wearing a kimono.
"What's with her?" asked the cat girl. "She is usually in a corner doing nothing. What's different this time?".
"Nobody knows," said a man. He was not privy to the details of the happenings in the group. "It's been a few days since she started acting this way. Maybe we should ask Vali. She's kind of freaking me out".
"That would be a great idea, but he is currently occupied with other things," said a younger girl. She knew where Vali was, but it was best not to find him now as it might blow his cover. She looked at the girl with sharp ears. "All we can do is wait for her to finish what she is doing to know what she is doing."
With that, the curiosity of the cat girl was unsatisfied. But she knew that she would have a chance to satisfy it in the future. After all, the little girl was in their group. So sooner or later, the little girl would finish what she was doing and be there to see the result.
