After the confrontation with rizevim, vali and his team went to report the events to azazel, seekvaira went to her home and Elizabeth returned to heaven, initially vali and the others offered to take her but she politely refused saying she knew where to go to heaven and that he had already regained enough power to do so.

But they still offered to at least take her to the human world, so she decided to accept. After arriving in the human world, she said goodbye to them and went on her way while they went to Azazel.

Azazel: I see...Who would have thought that a simple check would turn into all this, but what surprises me most is the fact that you have awakened the powers of your bloodline right now.

Vali, without saying anything, just shook his head as if he didn't care much.

Azazel: And can you use them without any problems?

In response Vali just raised his palm and created a shining silver sphere.

Vali: As I have just awakened, I am still learning to control.

Azazel just looked at the sphere with a nostalgic look.

Azazel: The evil light, who knew I would see this power again.

Bikou: What does this power do?

Azazel: Well, as you have already seen, the evil light, as its name suggests, releases a silvery light and this light is poisonous to both angels and demons and can even consume sacred power to become even more powerful.

Arthur: It's a complicated power to deal with, I bet both angels and demons suffered fighting against the ancient Lucifer.

Azazel gave a mocking smile.

Azazel: You can't even imagine.

Le fay: But why was vali-sama only able to use these powers now?

Azazel: I don't know, le fay, there are many possibilities as to why your Lucifer powers have only awakened now, but I don't think there will be a definitive answer.

Naga: Anyway, this evil light came at a good time.

Kuroka: That's good for you vali, now you have a new power I bet you're very excited to train it nya.

Vali: Yeah, I plan to train but for now these days I'm just going to rest.

When Vali said this, everyone was shocked by these words.

Vali: What?

Vali looked at them confused as if she had said something wrong.

Bikou: Hey...are you okay?

Bikou asked reluctantly and Vali just nodded that he was fine.

But Kuroka, who was close to him, came closer and placed her hand on his forehead.

Kuroka: He doesn't have a fever or anything like that, did Rizevim hit Vali Nya's head too hard?

Vali: I already said I'm fine!

Vali said, getting angry at his team's strange reactions.

Azazel: Well you can't blame them for having that reaction... even I was surprised by what you said, after all I never saw you stop training of your own free will, you didn't train or it was when you were injured and they told you to rest or when they wouldn't let you do it.

Vali: There's a first time for everything.

Bikou: But it's still strange.

Arthur and Le Fay nodded in agreement with what Bikou said, Naga didn't say anything because he didn't know Vali as well as the others.

Vali then just rolled his eyes and left leaving the others in the room.

Albion: (It's surprising that you want to rest for a while but don't think that I don't know why, because I know that you didn't want to train because you had arranged to have a meeting with Latia Astaroth.)

Vali: Yes, but they don't need to know that and besides, it's not a date just let's go out just the two of us.

Albion: (uhm, I know! I'm sure anyone who sees this scene will say it's a date.)

Vali ignored Albion and created a magical communication circle.

[???: Oh? Hello vali-san how are you?

Vali: I'm fine bark, I just got back from the mission and I would like to know if you are still in kuoh?

[Latia: I'm still in Kuoh, there's still a lot to sort out, especially now that I found a good place here in Kuoh with the help of the Gremory nobility.

Vali: I see, well I wanted to get in touch because I wanted to know if you are free for us to go out as we agreed.

When Vali said this there was a silence but it was quickly broken.

[Latia: S-of course, I'm glad we can go out!

Vali: So...when do you want to leave?

[Latia: Could it be tomorrow, if that's okay?

Vali: No, there's no problem.

[Latia: Great! See you tomorrow.

Vali: See you later.

Vali finished speaking and was going straight to his room but before he could go he felt a pair of hands go around his neck.

??: So that means that was why you didn't decide to train, honestly I'm very surprised, nya.

Vali recognized Kuroka's voice and Ligo moved her away from him.

Vali: So you came to see what I was doing, didn't you, you curious cat.

Kuroka: It's more like who would have thought you would go on a date, it looks like our valentine is becoming a big boy!~

Kuroka kept saying this to Vali in a mocking tone.

Vali just rolls her eyes at Kuroka

Vali: Whatever Kuroka, but listen, you're not supposed to tell anyone about this.

Kuroka gives him a smile.

Kuroka*smiling* don't worry nya, I won't tell anyone.

Vali just narrowed his eyes.

Vali: I'm serious Kuroka, if you tell anyone, I will lock you in the crimson gourd for a whole day or more.

Kuroka turned white when she heard what Vali said.

Kuroka: I definitely won't tell anyone nya.

Hearing Kuroka Vali's confirmation just walks away.

Timeskip to next day*

Vali was in his usual clothes, waiting for Latia, He told her that he would pick her up but Latia kindly asked him to wait for her in a park that she met when she was with the gremory group and that she would go to him.

Vali had his back turned thinking about what they were going to do today, because honestly he was never one to go out and have fun doing normal things.

???: Vali-san.

Vali, upon hearing the voice that she recognized as Latia's, turned to see her, and when he saw her she was speechless.

Latia wasn't wearing anything too extravagant but it didn't take away from her natural beauty, on the contrary it only increased it, she was wearing a navy blue skirt and a light blue short-sleeved shirt.

Seeing how Vali was looking at her, Laia was expectant.

Latia*Nervous* S-so how am I?!

Vali: You... look very beautiful.

Laria was even more embarrassed by Vali's compliment but she was also very happy.

Latia: Thank you!

She gives Vali a beautiful smile.

Vali: So what would you like to do?

Vali was undecided what they were going to do during the day.

Latia: I was thinking about us going to the cinema to watch a movie.

Vali: Cinema, right.

Vali never had much interest in watching films or series, things that people his age watch frequently.

Vali*Thinking* I don't think it will kill me to try new things, and going to the cinema would be a great start.

Vali: Okay, that's okay with me.

Latia*Smiling* So let's go!

Latia takes Vali's hand and pulls him to follow her. At first vali is shocked by her action but says nothing.

The two walk for a while and arrive at the mall where the cinema they are going to is located, when they get there to buy tickets they try to decide which film to watch, in fact she barks who is going to choose even though she tries to make it worth choosing too.

There were several film options, there were films in the genre of action, romance, drama, horror, adventure, fiction, etc.

Latia then chose to watch Dungeons Dragons – Honor Among Thieves, which ended up surprising vali who thought she was going to choose another type of film, seeing how vali was looking at her she decided to say something.

Latia*Smiling* I like adventure films.

Vali had to admit that she was even more beautiful when she smiled. After buying the tickets, they bought popcorn and drinks and went to the movie theater.

Vali wondered if he would find the film boring, but surprisingly he found the film really cool and fun, and although Vali wasn't someone who really liked jokes, he liked some of the comical scenes in the film, so overall he enjoyed going to the cinema.

As the two left the cinema, Latia started talking to him.

Latia: So you liked the movie?

Vali: I liked it, I thought it was really cool. And you?

Latia: I loved it! The film is very fun and funny.

Latia said her opinion excitedly.

Vali: So what do you want to do now?

Latia: How about we go get some ice cream.

Vali: Okay, let's go.

The two talk along the way with Vali telling her about his travels with his team.

Vali: And as punishment for the two not paying attention and leaving the guard open, I decided to leave the two trapped for a few hours in the crimson gourd.

Latia*Smiling* Fufuf, it seems like being with your team never makes you bored, after all, a lot of things must happen to you.

Vali nodded after all as he had already told her before he likes to have a busy life. Then they finally arrived at the ice cream shop.

Latia: Vali-san, which ice cream will you want?

Vali: Any flavor is fine for me.

Latia: Okay, so you can sit at one of the tables while I go get the ice cream.

While bark was going to buy the ice creams, vali went to sit on a chair at one of the empty tables and then he only had to wait a few minutes and bark came back with the two ice creams in a container and sat at the table with vali and gave him his ice cream.

Vali: Thank you.

Vali started eating the ice cream and thought it was delicious, he barked and asked.

Latia: what did you think vali-san?

Vali: It's very good, what flavor is it?

Vali asked the bark as he continued to eat the ice cream.

Latia: It's an ice cream with three flavors of vanilla, cream and chocolate. And mine has two coconut and pineapple flavors!

Latia said as she ate her ice cream.

Vali: I had eaten ice cream before but not very often.

Latia*Smiling* I eat ice cream often.

The two ate the ice cream while talking.

Latia: Vali-san...is there something I would like to ask you?

Vali looked at her curious about what she was going to say.

Vali: Tell me, I'm listening.

Latia sighed and then began to speak

Latia: In a few days there will be a party with all the noble demons, and several people were present to celebrate.

Vali: I see, so the heirs will participate in this party?

Latia nodded, stating what Vali was asking.

Latia: Yes, several heirs mainly from the Gremory, Sitri, Bael, Phoenix etc. clans. Will they be there and are they allowed to take any guests with them, which brings me to what I wanted to ask you?

Vali looked at her curious as to what she was going to ask him

Latia: I would like to know if you could be my date at this party?

Vali stays quiet for a while, making Laia more nervous than she already was, even though she looked calm even when she made the order, inside she was very nervous.

Vali: Are you sure about this?

Latia*Confused* Huh?

Latia is very confused by what he means.

Vali: It's just that your family is still having trouble gaining the trust of the other demons thanks to Diadora's betrayal, so don't you think that showing up at an important party with a former terrorist would cause you some problems.

Latia understands what he means.

Latia: But I thought you were already forgiven for that.

Vali: But it doesn't mean everyone is happy with it.

Latia: Well, I don't care what others think or will say, I've already made up my mind and I want you to come with me, that is if you want to go.

Latia looks at him, determined not to listen to anything else worth saying.

Vali gives a small smile.

Vali*Smiling* Okay, I'll go with you.

Latia*Smiling* Thank you vali-san!

Latia is very happy and gives Vali a beautiful smile that leaves him mesmerized, Vali is frozen looking but soon recovers.

Vali: So..how about I accompany you to your new home.

Latia: Well, I won't refuse, if you want to accompany me.

They soon leave the store and head towards Latia's house, two calmly walk through the streets with Latia telling Vali the time and place of the party while Vali thought about how pleasant and fun the day was.

The two arrived after a while, at Latia's mansion they had just arrived.

Latia: Have a good night vali-san, I really enjoyed our day together.

Vali*Smiling* I also really enjoyed today, it was really fun, I hope we can do this more often.

Vali gave the bark a smile as he said those words, leaving the bark blushing as he walked away.

(Albion): (First the date, now you will be her companion, I wonder why?)

Vali: I think maybe...I'm starting to like her, the smile she gives, the kind way she acts, I'd like to know more about her, but I still have my doubts.

(Albion) (Well, I'm happy that you're starting to be more of a normal person and less of a battle maniac)

Vali just snorts with what Albion says.

Vali: Now I have to find and buy a suit, I think I'll ask for help from Arthur or maybe Azazel although I'm reluctant because she'll start talking too much about Latia and me.

End

Firstly I want to apologize for only posting the chapter now, because as I work I end up getting home very late and tired, so I ended up writing little, so that's why it took me a while and another thing I would like to let you know is that the next chapters that I will focus on will be from my other story.

And I hope you enjoyed the chapter that focused on latia and vali and there is one thing I would like to know if you had to choose a dxd character to have a light novel about them, which character would you choose?
