"No problem, I'll contact them right away," Tohru replied, setting aside her chores and calling her friends.

"Roy, they said they'll come over tonight," she announced a moment later.

"Great! Then let's prepare dinner for them," Roy said with a smile.

His real target was Tohru's friend, Lucoa.

She had lived in ancient times and was originally known as Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent god, who governed culture and knowledge.

However, after being tricked into drinking cursed alcohol by her colleagues, she had gone on a drunken rampage and... well, let's just say she made a mistake with her sister. As a result, she was stripped of her godhood.

Even so, she was still one of the most powerful beings in this world.

She was currently responsible for maintaining balance between the Otherworld and the human world.

Roy was curious. How exactly had Lucoa, as a woman, "made a mistake" with her sister?

<><><><>

That evening, as Tohru was finishing dinner preparations, the doorbell rang.

"They're here!" Tohru chirped, rushing to open the door.

Roy and Kanna followed her.

When Tohru opened the door, a giant dragon head greeted them.

Tohru quickly shut the door and turned to Roy with an awkward smile.

"Please wait a moment."

"Fafnir-san, please transform like you did in the picture I showed you," she called out through the door.

Roy wanted to tell her there was no need to be so cautious around him,

But then again, Fafnir wouldn't be able to enter the apartment in his dragon form.

After a flash of magic, Tohru opened the door again.

A man with black hair, crimson eyes, and a sharp suit stood before them.

This was Fafnir, the cursed dragon.

He was said to be even stronger than Tohru.

"This world is so troublesome," Fafnir grumbled, though his tone was gentler than usual.

He often helped Tohru in the original story.

"Roy, this is Fafnir-san," Tohru introduced him.

"Hello, I'm Roy Lucifuge," Roy greeted him.

"A Devil," Fafnir observed, his usually cold expression softening slightly.

Like Tohru, Fafnir disliked humans after witnessing their greed and cruelty.

But he didn't seem to mind Roy,

After welcoming Fafnir inside, the doorbell rang again.

"Coming!" Tohru chirped, opening the door.

This time, a blinding light filled the doorway, followed by a pair of massive... assets.

Roy's eyes widened.

A woman with long blonde hair and a curvaceous figure, wearing a simple t-shirt, entered the apartment.

It was Lucoa.

"Tohru!" she greeted her friend with a cheerful smile.

"Lucoa-san, long time no see!" Tohru replied, then turned to Roy. "Roy, this is Quetzalcoatl-san."

"Pleased to meet you. You can call me Lucoa," Lucoa said, extending her hand towards Roy.

"Pleased to meet you, Lucoa-san. I'm Roy Lucifuge. Just Roy is fine," he replied, shaking her hand.

<><><><>

After the introductions, they all gathered in the living room.

Tohru went to finish preparing the last few dishes.

Roy gave Fafnir a game console to keep him occupied, then sat down with Lucoa for a chat.

"By the way, Roy-kun, which faction do you belong to?" Lucoa asked with a smile.

Roy had never seen her open her eyes.

As expected, those with perpetually closed eyes were hiding their true nature.

"I'm not with the Harmony faction or the Chaos faction. I'm actually from another world," Roy admitted.

"Oh, another world?" Lucoa didn't seem surprised.

It seemed she had already sensed it.

"Are you curious about other worlds, Lucoa-san?"

"Yes, very."

Roy then told her about the world of High School DxD.

<><><><><>

"It's similar to this world, with constant conflicts between different factions. In the last war, even God and the original Satans perished..."

"But..."

"But what?" Lucoa, intrigued, opened her eyes.

They were heterochromatic, her right eye green and her left eye a mix of dark brown and yellow.

Her eyes were mesmerizing.

Lucoa, noticing Roy's intense gaze, quickly closed her eyes again.

"But unlike this world, the factions in my world coexist with humans. We're inseparable."

"Really?" Lucoa was surprised.

In this world, both the Harmony and Chaos factions looked down on humans.

And most of the Chaos faction members despised humans and wished to eradicate them.

"Yes," Roy confirmed with a nod.

"So, Roy-kun, what's your purpose in coming here?" Lucoa finally asked the question that had been on her mind.

She had sensed Roy's presence as soon as he arrived in this world.

After all, if someone with his power intended to destroy this world, she, as the guardian of balance, would have to intervene.

Roy, sensing her concern, chuckled. "Don't worry, I'm not interested in destroying worlds. I came here by chance. But I might take Tohru with me."

His half-truth reassured Lucoa.

"Tohru used to be such a gloomy child. It's all thanks to you that she's so cheerful now," Lucoa commented, glancing at Tohru, who was happily preparing food in the kitchen.

"I'm glad I met Tohru too."

"By the way, Lucoa-san, where are you staying now?" Roy suddenly asked.

"I don't have a place to stay at the moment," Lucoa replied with a smile.

Roy remembered that in the original story, Lucoa had been invited by Tohru.

And on her way back, she had stumbled upon Shouta's house while he was performing a summoning ritual.

So, she was currently homeless.

Roy's eyes lit up.

"Why don't you stay here, Lucoa-san? We have plenty of rooms."

"And you're good friends with Tohru. You must want to spend more time with her, right?"

Lucoa considered his offer for a moment, then agreed.

"Sure, I wouldn't mind that. After all, I don't have anywhere else to go."

For a long-lived Dragon like her, staying at a friend's house for a few decades was nothing.

<><><><><>

"Dinner is ready!" Tohru announced, bringing in the food.

"I'll help you with that. By the way, Tohru, I've invited Lucoa-san to stay with us for a while," Roy informed her.

"Eh?!" Tohru puffed out her cheeks, a bit jealous.

"Don't be jealous, Tohru. Lucoa-san doesn't have a place to stay right now. She came all the way here to see you. You can't just send her away, can you?" Roy whispered in her ear.

"Mmm... okay," Tohru agreed after a moment of thought.

"I knew you were understanding, Tohru," Roy praised her.

"Heehee, really?" Tohru blushed.

"Of course. Now, let's serve the food," Roy said with a nod.

"Okay!"

"Lucoa-san, dinner is ready. Let's eat," Roy invited her.

"Sure." Lucoa smiled.

"Would you like some alcohol? I have some excellent wine," Roy offered. He usually didn't drink alcohol, preferring the tea Akeno made. This wine was something he had taken from the Gremory mansion.

"Alcohol?" Lucoa's smile vanished, and she opened her eyes.

"I wouldn't mind some, but I have to check it for curses first," she said.

The atmosphere became a bit awkward.

Fortunately, Tohru arrived with the food.

"Lucoa-san was once stripped of her godhood because of alcohol. Her colleagues tricked her into drinking cursed alcohol, and then she drunkenly..." Tohru began to explain.

"Tohru, stop!" Lucoa quickly interrupted her.

Tohru really had no filter.

If it were anyone else, they would have been eliminated by now.

"It's alright. Let Lucoa-san check it," Roy said with a wave of his hand.

He wasn't worried. There was nothing wrong with his wine.

<><><><><>

The table was soon filled with food, and they all enjoyed the feast.

Roy had a few drinks with Lucoa, who seemed to have a low tolerance for alcohol.

After a few glasses, she was already tipsy.

Of course, this was without using her magic. If she used her magic, she wouldn't get drunk no matter how much she drank.

After dinner, Fafnir left first.

Roy showed Lucoa to her room, then went to rest.

In the middle of the night, Lucoa woke up to some... interesting sounds.

It was Roy and Tohru.

Listening to their activities, Lucoa couldn't help but... take care of herself.

<><><><><>

The next morning...

"Good morning, Lucoa-san," Roy greeted her with a smile as she entered the living room.

"Good morning," Lucoa replied cheerfully.

"By the way, Lucoa-san, we're going to play Bullet Hell later. Do you want to join us?"

"Bullet Hell?" Lucoa blushed, remembering last night's events.

"Yes, it's a very fun game. Come play with us, Lucoa-san," Tohru encouraged her.

"Alright," Lucoa agreed.

After breakfast, they went to the grassland.

Roy brought them into the subspace.

"Lucoa-san, watch us play first," Roy suggested.

"Okay."

Roy, Tohru, and Kanna began their Bullet Hell game. Unlike their first time, their attacks were now more intricate and beautiful.

They created various patterns with their magic bullets, filling the sky with dazzling displays.

Lucoa watched with interest.

"Lucoa-san, come join us! Let's defeat the big bad Roy together!" Tohru invited her.

"Yes, defeat the Demon Lord!" Kanna added.

They had yet to defeat Roy in their games and had nicknamed him the "Demon Lord."

"It's alright, Lucoa-san. I can handle you all on my own," Roy said confidently.

"Is that so? Then I accept your challenge," Lucoa replied with a smile.

She had grasped the concept of magic bullets after watching them play.

They faced each other in the air.

Roy, facing three opponents, was still confident.

After all, he was the one who introduced them to this game. He still had many tricks up his sleeve.

But then, he regretted his decision.

Tohru and Kanna summoned countless magic bullets, though fewer than Roy.

However, Lucoa's magic bullets filled half the subspace.

She had summoned even more than Roy, Tohru, and Kanna combined.

"A-Amazing!"

"Maji yabakune~"

Tohru and Kanna were stunned.

Even after days of practice, they had only managed to increase the number of magic bullets they could control by a third.

But they still couldn't match Roy.

And Lucoa, on her first try, had summoned so many. It was incredible.

But it made sense. Roy guessed that Lucoa, before being stripped of her godhood, was likely a being beyond the level of a Super Devil.

Now, although her power had diminished, she was still likely at the peak of Super Devil.

And having lived for countless years, her control over magic was far beyond theirs.

Roy felt a headache coming on.

"Here I come, Roy-kun!" Lucoa declared with a mischievous grin.

She unleashed her magic bullets.

Roy quickly countered with his own barrage.
