Kuoh Academy Old School Building.
This was the former school building of Kuoh Academy, and because it had been abandoned for a long time, it gave off an eerie feeling.
After Rias finished all the procedures for Linde, the three of them had already arrived here.
Miyano Shiho surveyed the old school building and quipped, "Is this one of the Seven Mysteries of the Academy?"
"There is indeed a similar saying."
Rias pushed open the door: "But the actual situation is that it's the activity area for my Retainer/Subordinates."
As she spoke, the three walked into a spacious activity room.
"Akeno, Konekko, look who's here."
"Junior Linde, it's a pleasure to see you again."
Himejima Akeno smiled slightly: "Do you two prefer black tea or coffee?"
"I'll have black tea, Shiho, what do you want?"
"Coffee, please."
Tachibana Konekko waved her hand and said in a flat tone, "Senior Linde, hello."
"Still as aloof as ever."
Linde sat on the sofa, glanced around, and then said, "Rias, do you still only have Konekko and Senpai Akeno as your Retainer/Subordinates?"
Rias said helplessly, "There's nothing I can do, good Retainer/Subordinates are really hard to find."
"Indeed."
Linde nodded thoughtfully, a slight smile curving his lips.
It seems.
He didn't know if it was because of him or the changes in the world.
Kiba Yuuto and that Vampire, I don't know where they went.
That's a good thing.
The fish in my pond, I can't tolerate other men lingering around.
"What, are you happy that I can't find a Retainer?"
Rias looked at Linde suspiciously.
She always felt like this guy...
was thinking something rude.
"How could that be?"
Linde laughed it off, changing the subject: "By the way, there's something I need to ask you about Shiho."
"Go on."
"As you know, she just became a Demon and has no combat experience, so I was hoping your people could guide her."
Linde smiled: "Of course, if you're willing to teach her Ultra-Tier Magic, that would be even better."
Teaching people these things...
He had no patience for that.
"You're dreaming big, aren't you?"
Rias rolled her eyes.
This guy not only wanted to be lazy but also wanted a free ride.
Linde blinked, an expression that said, 'That's exactly it.'
Although the lucifugus Family was also a prestigious one,
its foundation was still a notch below the Gremory Family.
Especially Ultra-Tier Magic.
This was a miracle magic, said to possess power comparable to a Demon Lord.
In some Demon families, it was even a closely guarded secret.
Moreover,
with the Heart of Magic,
if Shiho learned it, he would learn it too.
This was simply a no-risk, high-reward business.
Looking at Linde, Rias twitched her lips, but she didn't refuse.
It wasn't as if she hadn't given Linde Ultra-Tier Magic before.
Rias sighed, saying, "Alright, let's first see what kind of magic she's suited for, and I'll handle it then."
"As for now, Akeno, you'll give her special training first."
"Understood, President."
Himejima Akeno nodded.
She approached Miyano Shiho and said, "Miss Shiho, please attack with all your might first."
"I want to see what your current strength is like."
"Then, Miss Akeno, please guide me."
Miyano Shiho was eager to try.
She had mastered so much magic yesterday.
Finally, she could test it out.
Silently,
the magic power that could make the air vibrate had already spread out.
"Wait a moment."
Himejima Akeno quickly stopped her.
What a joke.
Didn't the other party just become a Retainer yesterday?
But what was happening now?
This was clearly an Intermediate Demon!
If she really attacked, the old school building might even be torn down.
On the other side,
Rias and Tachibana Konekko also looked incredulous.
None of them were Demon novices.
They deeply understood how strict the hierarchy among Demons was.
Unless they were some inherently powerful races,
otherwise, even some human Sacred Gear users,
as long as they reincarnated as Demons, would all start as Lower-level Demons.
But this one before them...
She was clearly an ordinary person who reincarnated as a Demon.
In just one day, she had become an Intermediate Demon?
This was practically cheating, wasn't it?
Rias withdrew her gaze from Miyano Shiho and looked at Linde, saying, "How did she do it?"
"Of course, it's because she has an excellent master."
Linde said seriously: "If you became my Retainer, you would also level up at divine speed."
"You're dreaming big."
Rias gave Linde a glare, not believing a single word.
In her opinion,
perhaps Miyano Shiho had some mysterious bloodline.
Looking at it this way,
Linde's Retainer was practically a huge profit.
After a moment of silence, Himejima Akeno spoke: "Miss Shiho, let's go outside."
"I'm sorry, I was being reckless."
Miyano Shiho also realized her mistake.
It was indeed inappropriate to fight inside the building.
"It's not your fault, I was inconsiderate."
Himejima Akeno shook her head and walked outside.
Behind the old school building,
there was a large open space.
Normally, this was Rias's Retainers' training ground.
Miyano Shiho and Himejima Akeno stood facing each other.
"Miss Akeno, I'm going to start."
Miyano Shiho gave a reminder and began to extend her hands, releasing magic power.
Buzz!
A light blue Magic Circle appeared in the void.
The next moment,
several wind blades had already torn through the air, enveloping Himejima Akeno.
"Wind Blade Magic?"
Himejima Akeno's gaze narrowed slightly.
Although this was the lowest-level basic magic,
her mastery of it...
was too proficient, wasn't it?
Was she really just an ordinary human before yesterday?
Thinking this, Himejima Akeno's reaction was not slow at all.
With a movement of her body, magic of a corresponding level was already released.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The magic of both sides collided, stirring up clouds of smoke.
Waves of air, like solid matter, rolled in all directions.
Rias saw this scene and said softly, "You really found a treasure, didn't you?"
Linde stroked his chin and smiled, "This is just the beginning."
"???"
Rias's face was full of question marks.
"Miss Akeno, let's continue."
"Okay."
Miyano Shiho began to imitate Himejima Akeno's movement style, releasing magic again.
Hum.
The light of the Magic Circle shone brightly.
Brilliant sparks bloomed from within.
"No, it can't be, can it?"
Rias's pupils contracted deeply.
Spark Magic?
Mastered two basic kinds of magic in one day?
Or... was this not even her limit yet?
Soon,
her question was answered.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Miyano Shiho began a barrage of attacks, with various kinds of magic dazzling her.
Was this something that could be learned in one day?
Rias fell into deep shock.
Linde didn't just make a huge profit.
He practically pulled an SSR.
This was too outrageous.
