Satsuki drank her tea as she looked around her school. No doubt Inumuta was already researching their next move, with Nonon maintaining order among the ranks of students. Sanegeyama was already practicing his blade with the stronger students, and Gamagoori was disciplining the Prinnies.
It's funny that things tend to be a little bit like life, give or take the initial years of death. She looked up as two other girls entered her sanctuary. "Ryuko Matoi, Mankanshoku. Welcome back. Ryuko, have you decided to join me? To take back our world?"
"Why should I?" Ryuko glared back at Satsuki. "Only humans should live on Earth. I'm not like the rest of you."
"If you haven't noticed, everyone here is not human." Satsuki pointed out to Soroi who was a penguin on pegs, ignoring the fact that she herself sported horns. "In fact, the only odd one here is Mankanshoku. Despite being an Angel, she hasn't abandoned you."
Ryuko couldn't argue with that. "But still, after what I've done..."
"What's past is past." Satsuki got up and looked at the screen. "What matters is that Ragyo still lives, and when COVERS converts every human life into fuel, I doubt they'll just stay on Earth and starve themselves."
"However, this Dark Council has continued to reject the proposal to invade Earth."
Ryuko picked her nose. "Why do we need permission to invade another world? We're demons, aren't we?"
"Yes, but we also do not have enough power to send more than one person through an Earth-bound portal, and I would rather commit a full assault against Ragyo."
Mako peeked out of the window. "Lady Satsuki, your boyfriend is here!"
Ryuko blinked. "Boyfriend?"
"He's the Dean of Evil Academy." Satsuki muttered. "He prides himself as the owner of the only school for demons, and I have no doubt he's here to correct that...And he is not a boyfriend."
((Was it a rule for every Overlord to have an evil laugh? Then laugh, Satsuki, laugh!))
