"Yo-ho, Lord Rias, long time no see!!"
Jibril pounced forward, rubbing her cheek against Rias's, her face filled with a silly, infatuated smile.
"You've recovered, Jibril."
Rias did not resist.
While Jibril's infatuated expression might be unacceptable to many, in Rias's eyes, the inexplicably goofy Jibril was actually quite cute.
"Yes, after all, it's been two years. If I didn't recover now, I'd be left too far behind."
Jibril complained slightly, "If I had known, I wouldn't have fought that idiot; I ended up wasting so much time."
"Even if you say that, if given the choice again, you would definitely make the same decision."
Rias smiled.
"That's true."
Jibril nodded.
After all, for the Flugel, those words of looking down on others were truly unbearable and made them want to fight.
Letting strength do the talking—that was the Flugel.
"Hey, you shameless bird-woman, let go of Lord Rias!!"
Tatsumaki flew in mid-air, staring at Jibril huffily.
Although Tatsumaki was only ten years old now, for some reason, she had already changed into that extremely alluring black outfit.
Well, it was that outfit where the fabric looked very thin, a somewhat erotic attire.
"This outfit is?"
Rias looked at Tatsumaki in surprise.
"How is it? It's pretty, right?"
Tatsumaki saw Rias's gaze and showed a slightly smug expression.
"Wait until you're a bit older; right now, you're still a bit lacking."
Rias rubbed Tatsumaki's head and laughed.
"Ugh..."
Tatsumaki said dissatisfiedly, "I'm already not that small."
Even so, a green light flashed across Tatsumaki's body, and she changed back into casual clothes.
The previous outfit was clearly meant for Rias to see~
She already had little schemes at such a young age~
Rias was well aware of this~
But Tatsumaki was still too small; she'd have to wait until she was legal at least~
These little schemes should be suppressed for a few more years~
"Sister Rias..."
Hinata Hyuga called out softly from the side, but because her voice was too low, she was ignored.
"Speaking of which, this is our first time meeting offline, isn't it?"
Teresia van Astrea showed a faint smile and said, "Hello, Rias."
"That's too formal; that's not the reaction of friends meeting~"
Rias laughed.
"Then, Rias-chan?"
Teresia said with a beaming smile.
"That's not bad either~"
Rias nodded.
"You... are Miss Rias?!"
Beside them, Kuro Usagi snapped out of it and looked at Rias in surprise.
"Yes, are you surprised?"
Rias smiled and said.
"Yes, very, very surprising indeed!!"
Kuro Usagi's reaction was extremely exaggerated.
"Wait, could it be that Lord Rias, like Lord Shiroyasha, intentionally maintains this appearance?"
Kuro Usagi seemed to have thought of something and asked.
"No, this is my original appearance."
Rias smiled and said, "That being said, the reason I can reach this level at this age is not innate, but through cultivation. It's just that I am a transmigrator, so my worldview and mind were already mature."
"You probably can't imagine, when I first met Rias, she was only three years old. She was incredibly weak."
Jibril sighed from the side, "Despite being so weak, to reach this level in such a short time is not something that can be described simply as a 'transmigrator'."
"Wait, that means Lord Rias wasn't a born Asura or God-Buddha, but reached a Four-Digit with only two or three years of cultivation?!"
Kuro Usagi's eyes widened.
To this, Rias responded with a smile.
"Hiss~"
Kuro Usagi took a sharp breath of cold air.
Before Rias could say anything, another new group member appeared.
It was a young girl wearing a simple kimono.
As soon as she appeared, her entire body began to tremble.
Her eyes gradually lost focus, and cold sweat dripped from her forehead.
Both her flesh and soul were screaming, as if they were about to be destroyed in the next moment.
"These eyes can actually be very dangerous when they encounter an existence they cannot understand."
Rias lightly patted Yasuri Nanami's head, and those eyes, which were like starlight, regained their color.
"I thought I was going to die."
Nanami wiped away her cold sweat.
Nanami's talent was so strong that it was even envied by heaven to the point of being cursed.
Even her Migeiko Eyes was only a part of her talent.
Because she needed to survive, Migeiko was born.
Although it was powerful, it also had flaws.
Despite being such a powerful eye, it could not function in a state of 'not being able to see'.
In the case of Rias's Destruction Demonic Eye, although it bred the light of destruction, it still possessed basic abilities like X-ray vision and insight.
No, it should be said that the Demonic Eye alone had more than tens of thousands of uses.
At the same time, Rias also discovered a second flaw.
When facing an existence whose life level was too much higher than her own, even with Migeiko, she could not copy them.
Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, Taijutsu, superpowers, writing, constitution, weapon usage, thoughts, magic, special abilities... even the genetic abilities of other races could be copied.
This also meant her inspiration was too high; even a 'god' could be seen through at a glance.
However, the person she saw was not Rias.
Because Rias was wrapped in a layer of protection, both to avoid being peeked at by others and to prevent herself from accidentally hurting those she cared about.
So the people she saw were Kuro Usagi and Jibril.
"Hmm? This is..."
Kuro Usagi looked at Yasuri Nanami in confusion and asked with concern, "What's wrong? You didn't look very well just now."
"She is Yasuri Nanami."
Rias said.
"That girl whose talent is even higher than yours?!"
Kuro Usagi was surprised.
Nanami's eyes stared at Kuro Usagi, making her break out in a cold sweat.
"Uh, did I say something wrong, Kuro Usagi?"
Kuro Usagi said dryly.
"It's nothing." Nanami stopped staring at her and said, "Please don't say such things; I'm still far from it."
To only consider the power of the setting without considering the output is completely playing foul.
Was Nanami strong?
She was very strong, and as long as her horizons expanded, she could become infinitely stronger.
But right from the start, she saw the 'spiritual authority' of a four-digit existence and the life form of the Flugel.
The amount of data was simply too massive.
Don't just look at how Rias completely mastered the Flugel's Magic Formula in a few years; that was the proudest technique of Artosh, the God of War!
Even in the world of "No Game No Life," the Flugel was called the most perfect god-made life.
They were the only god-made life among the high-ranking races!
"That child almost collapsed for a moment just now."
Hestia's eyes flashed with divine light as she looked at Kuro Usagi and said, "She can copy others' life forms and abilities. Once she sees an existence she cannot understand, problems will likely arise. Fortunately, Little Rias closed her Migeiko Eyes in time."
"The first time was a failure to react. If there's a second time, that child's body should be able to adapt and automatically filter out things she cannot understand."
"Truly a terrifying talent."
Although Kuro Usagi belonged to the Four-Digit, it was clearly only in terms of life form and combat power.
In terms of Omnipotence, the gods of the Danmachi World were still stronger.
She had already realized how terrifying Nanami's talent was.
Being able to filter out incomprehensible things meant... only retaining what her own constitution could understand.
Injecting water into a container, then expanding the container.
It might not even take long for Nanami to reach the 'realm of gods'!
