《Welcome To Demon School! Ryūko-chan & Iruma-kun [Volume I]》Chapter XIX Story II [Family Time]
Advertisement
Over both days of the Battler Party, students and teachers rate the Battler exhibits. The students can vote for the Battlers they like, other their own. But the most important point of all is that the Party Day is attended by the students' parents.
Suzuki Ryūko and the rest of the Magical Apparatus Battler, consisting of Suzuki Iruma, Asmodeus Alice, Félin Lavande, and Valac Clara (Formerly with Battler President, Amy Kiriwo), were in preparation for their next fireworks show. "All done." Said Ryūko and Iruma, "Now we just have to launch the fireworks according to the schedule." "Shall we check out the other Battlers while we wait?" Asked Asmodeus. "Capital idea, Sir Asmodeus." Agreed Lavande, "Perhaps we can endorse our Battler clothes, that which Lady Valac created." The cat demon was refering to the outifts they were wearing, that resembled a Japanese happi, but in pink. "Sounds good." Said Iruma before he turned his head to Clara, "Hey, Clara, do you want to come with... us?" Apparently, Clara's youngest siblings, Sin Sin and Ran Ran, were clinging on her legs. And here comes the introduction of the Valac family.
Valac Clara: "The Valac family is here! Eldest daughter, !"
Valac Konchie: "Second son, !"
Valac Keebow: "Third son, !"
(Holds a portrait)
"Eldest son, (who is absent at the moment)!"
Valac Sin Sin & Ran Ran: "The youngest pipsqueaks!"
Mrs. Valac: "And their ."
Valac Family
"" Introduced the Valac family. "Wow. They all look alike." Said Iruma slowly clapping with his facial expression with nervousness and suprise, "Don't you think, Onē-chan?" "I could say that the eldest daughter has multipled." Joked Ryūko sarcastically while sweatdropping at this. "Yay, we nailed it!" Said Keebow to Clara with a double high-five, "Check it out!" The youngest twins then were climbing on to the eldest twins of the scene; Sin Sin was clinging onto Ryūko, Ran Ran was on Iruma.
Valac Sin Sin: "Sis, sis, sis..."
Valac Ran Ran: "Bro, bro, bro..."
"I hear you're the tops of the first-year class?" Asked Konchie to Asmodeus and Lavande, "Take that and that and that!" Konchie was continueously punching Asmodeus in the gut. He has no idea what to feel about this family. Either shocked, annoyed, or both. "Ah! Do not challenge Sir Asmodeus as such!" Said Lavande holding Konchie off, which made the noble demon suprised and blush a little from how much she wanted to protect him from this weird scenario.
Anyways, Clara's mother was just as peppy as her eldest daughter. "I'm Clara's mother. Thank you for taking care of her." Said Mrs. Valac. "We're taking care of her, alright." Pointed out Asmodeus. "It was not much of bother, madam." Said Ryūko. "Thanks for being her friends. Are you hungry? I'll put some cabdy in your pockets. I have toys, too, but it's one per person. Don't fight over them." Said Mrs. Valac, "When Clara was younger, she'd always sneeze candy out if her pockets. Everyone nearly drowned in a sea of candy." "Makes sense, since Clara-san is the one with those magic pockets." Thought Ryūko. They weren't what triggered this family, but they suddenly started singing and dancing as if this was a musical. "Oh no. Don't tell me this anime season is becoming a musi-" "Okay, that's enough, Onē-chan." Said Iruma before Ryūko was done breaking something.
Here's the lyrics of the song.
"Valac Clara
Konchie
Keebow
Sin Sin
Ran Ran
We're on a festival rampage

Valac Urala and Daddy are somewhere out there, too
But that'll remain a secret for now
(Mommy's feigning ignorance?!)
Slurp, slurp, slurp
Yakisoba
Jumbo hot dogs
Choco bananas
Bang, bang, bang
Throwing range
Pinball
Goldfish scooping
Yo, yo, yo
Bro, bro, bro
Guess what?
No turning into yakisoba, okay?
Yesh, ma'am
Line up, kids
Mommy's calling for us
Now we say our greetings
Off we go!
The world's strongest, unbeatable.
Warm and wonderful family
That is us, the Valacs
That is us, the Valacs
Us, the Valac family"
And with that musical act done, the Valac family ran off. "That was incredible." Said Iruma. "Agreed. But I think this Battler already has the best singer." Said Ryūko with a hint of pride in her voice. "But of course. Only Lady Ryūko truly has a songbird's devotion." Added Lavande in admiration. "Let's look around more quietly, Ryū-"
""
Asmodeus flinched at the voice of a pink haired woman coming towards him. "Lady Asmodeus!" Addressed Lavande, recognising the friend of her parents. "Hang on a second... I recognise that demon somewhere..." Said Ryūko quietly in thought, "Is that the Lord of Seduction?" "Alice? Wait... " Exclaimed Iruma. Asmodeus didn't respond and sweated profusely. "Sheesh, Alice-chan. How mean of you to leave me behind." Gushed the woman hugging Asmodeus, "I had to drop all my work to rush here!" "" Asked Asmodeus. "Oh, I knocked him out with my " Replied the woman before she formed a hear with her fingers and looked at Ryūko and Iruma through it, "So you're Ryūko-chan and Iruma-kun? I'm Alice's mother and the "
Asmodeus Amuryllis
"I knew I found you familiar." Said Ryūko, "I guess the books about the Thirteen Crowns were right." "You're all Alice-chan ever talks about, aside from Lavande-chan." Said Amuryllis stroking the twins' hair, "I'm sure you know who that is." "I am at your presence, Lady Asmodeus." Said Lavande on her knee towards her, "Hast been long from where we met in years." "Lavande-chan. I'm so happy to see you, after such a long time." Said Amuryllis stroking Lavande's hair, "How are your parents doing? I'm excited to meet them." At that moment, a couple of cat demons came by and called out to Lavande, which made her ears flicker and stand up. "Lavande. Good morrow to you." Said a male cat demon with black hair, ears and tail, wearing armor, "Good morrow to you as well, Lady Amuryllis." "Amuryllis-chan! Long time no see!" Said a female cat demon with long purple hair, ears and tail like Lavande's. "Sombre-kun! Rosemarin-chan!" Addressed Amuryllis. The three adults bowed to each other before turning their attention to Ryūko and Iruma. "So you are the ones my daughter is of aid, Lady Ryūko and Sir Iruma?" Asked the black-haired cat demon. "Yes, Sir. You are not mistaken." Sajd Ryūko. "Thank you for taking care of my little knight." Said the adult cat woman, "I'm Lavande's mother, Félin Rosemarin." "And I am Sir Félin Sombre, father of Dame Lavande." Introduced the male demon with a bow, "I thank thee for being of her care." "Iruma and I have no bothers with your devoteful fenale knight." Bowed Ryūko back.
Félin Sombre
Félin Rosemarin
"My daughter is truly ambitious when being the first female demon knight in the Netherworld and in the Félin bloodline." Said Sombre. "So, Lavande-chan. Your dad's a knight, too?" Asked Iruma. "Indeed. He is an infamous knight who pulls the strings of shadows and is brilliant in power." Said Lavande, "In my bloodline, there were a preponderance of males who were knights. Reason being that I am the only child of my family, tis' my honor to become the first female knight in both my bloodline and the whole Netherworld." "Wow. Lavande-chan has a lot of ambition!" Gleamed Iruma. "The true nature of a true demon is to be passionate of their ambitions." Said Ryūko, "How much that reminds me of Amy-senpai..."

Amuryllis's attention turned over to Lavande. "You're still such an elegant knight, Lavande-chan." Said Amuryllis with half-lidded eyes as she leaned closer to the shorter demon, "No wonder Alice-chan adores you so. I honestly wouldn't mind having you as my future ." Asmodeus and Lavande both blushed from the comment. The female knight covered her red face behind her hands with her ears down in embarrassment as Asmodeus shouted: "" "Huh? Don't you her, Alice-chan?" Asked Amuryllis. "Well... y-yes. But you cannot say something like that so simply." Said Asmodeus still blushing. Luckily, Lavande didn't catch that because of being too embarrassed, so Asmodeus can still confess to her at a different time. Sombre laughed lightly as Rosemarin agreed with Asmodeus but also argeeing that Lavande would be an ideal soulmate for him. "I suppose you aren't wrong, Amuryllis-chan." Said Rosemarin, "Your son would be very suitable for Lavande as a soulmate." "Mother, please. I am quite mortified." Said Lavande still blushing. "Shall we explore the exhibits, then?" Asked Sombre to his wife and daughter. "P-Perhaps so." Stammered Lavande with her blush fading away.
"Anyway... I heard that you made something called fireworks." Said Amuryllis to Ryūko and Iruma, "What kind of seduction magic is it?" "Madam, fireworks are explosive decorations that are flowers of light, blooming in the night sky." Said Ryūko. "" Said Asmodeus clearly embarrassed and pushing his mother to the opposite direction, "Right. Raim-sensei was your student, right? Let's go say hello! I'll be back Ryūko and Iruma-sama! Have a good time, Félin-sama!" "See you soon, Ryūko-chan and Iruma-kun." Said Amuryllis before she blew Ryūko and Iruma a kiss, which irritated her son. "" Asked Asmodeus. "Why? Because they're cutiepies, like Lavande-chan." Answered the Lord of Seduction, "Oh. Speaking of her, I will try to refrain from fawning over her, so go ahead and seduce her all you want, Alice-chan~."
""
Ryūko couldn't help but giggle at the embarrassing scene. Lavande turned her attention to her father and asked: "Shall we be off, then?" Sombre nodded with Rosemarin before she bowed to Ryūko and Iruma, "I shall return tonight, Lady Ryūko and Sir Iruma." The Félin family then walked away from the Magical Apparatus Battler's exhibit. "Everyone has their unique family circumstances, huh?" Thought Iruma, "But they do tend to act more natural in front of family. " Iruma envied the others who have their families around and Ryūko undoubtingly sensed his envy. "Brother, you're not thinking about our so-called parents, are you?" Asked Ryūko. "I... I'm not so sure if I can respond to-" "" Ryūko cut Iruma off with a sharp and bold tongue before she calmed down and put her hands on his shoulders while giving a straight, but affectionate look, "Besides, why ask for them when you have me, your beloved sister, who vowed to protect you until death does us apart? I'm willing to give my all into our sibling relationship, there won't be any need to feel alone. Isn't that right?" Iruma returned her look and said: "Yeah. You're right. Not only do we have each other, but we even have Grandpa and Opera." Right on cue, Sullivan lifted Iruma up and Opera did the same to Ryūko. "What snack would you like?" Asked Sullivan. "Grandpa? Shouldn't you be working?" Asked Iruma as the adults put them down. "No problem! I promised I'd be back by Battler presentaion day, didn't I?" Reassured Sullivan, "Come, now. Let's enjoy the festival together." "I'm relieved that you were able to keep your promise, Grandfather." Smiled Ryūko softly as Iruma beamed a happy expression from this.
Their first destination was the Demon King Battler, the one Sabnock Sabro is a member of. This Battler looks over at books and documents about the Demon King. They were performing an ancedote about a former Demon King, and Sabnock was playing the role of that Demon King himself. "" Said Sabnock,"" The role was indeed suitable for him, as his ambition is to become the next Demon King, His Majesty's throne is currently vacant as it had been for centuries.
After the ancedote, Ryūko's group met up with Sabnock. "Way to go, Brother!" Cheered Sabnock's younger sister, Sylvia hugging Sabnock from behind. "As expected of you, Demon King." Praised Ryūko with a bow, "Such suiting role of yours deserves a radiant light to shine upon." You were really cool, Sabnock-kun." Praised Iruma, "Is that your sister?" "Yes! I'm his sister, ." Introduced Sylvia, now hanging over her brother's shoulder, "He doesn't come home often, so I'm happy to see him." She then pointed at the heterochromiatic girl, "Hey, Brother. Is that Ryūko?" "Indeed! This is Ryūko, my greatest friend!" Said Sabnock. "Wow, she's cool. Even having different eye colours compare to her brother!" Complimented Sylvia, "Say, Ryūko! What do you think of my brother?" "Pardon? My personal opinion?" Ryūko puts her index and middle fingertips on her chin as she thought for a little, "I shall give my whole description of him. He surely has no lack of confidence, and has the true nature of a demon; to be truly passionate of his ambition. Regardless of his indiscreetness, he is an inspiration for those striving for their ambitons. That is why... A demon who is passionate and breaks his or her limits to reach out for ambition... is a demon truly worthy of following by example. That's how I would put everything into this description of your brother. My academic ambition is to achive the best as a student of this very school. He's one of those demons who inspired me to bring it closer to me so I can reach my ambition, too."
Sylvia was shocked from hearing such an aristocrat description. "I... I so agree! My brother is a great demon!" Agreed Sylvia wholeheartedly. "That was a cool description, Onē-chan!" Beamed Iruma, "Your choice of words are so your style!" "Thank you for such a detailed thought, Ryūko." Thanked Sabnock, "You can really say things that can't be expected." "This is sort of a déjà vu. Or maybe not?" Thought Ryūko. "Did you come alone?" Asked Sullivan. "No. I was wih my oldest brother, but we go seperated in two seconds." Answered Sylvia. "" Said Sabnock, "" And with that, Sabnock and Sylvia ran out of the tent to look for his older brother. "Fare thee well, I guess." Joked Ryūko.
Ryūko's group then met up with the captain of the Execussion Cannonball Battler. "Heya, Ryūko-chan and Iruma-kun." Greeted the captain. "Oh, good day to you." Greeted Ryūko back. "Destroy-the-target, huh?" Asked Sullivan. "Those fireworks were incredible." Said the captain scratching the back of his head, "I'm ashamed I found your lacking abilities before." "Oh, please be ashamed not, Sir." Reassured Ryūko. "She's right. Don't be." Added Iruma. "Play a few games, if you'd like. These metal targets are tough." Said the captain. Suddenly, a ball thrown by Opera broke the metal target instantly. He won a giant teddy bear and Ryūko sincerely apologised to the Execussion Cannonball Battler for the mess. "For you, Ryūko-sama." Said Opera handing the prize over to Ryūko. "Oh... Thanks... I suppose." Sweatdropped Ryūko. They checked out the other Battler exhibits and it's clear that Opera is pretty amazing. No matter if it's a fishing game, bowling game, or golfish scooping game: he can . As his mistress, Ryūko is quite inpressed and proud of him, but felt symphatic for the different Battler members. Because of him, they were running out of business faster than they should. It's no suprise that a married couple was complaining about this to Kalego, who looked as if he had better things to do.
"Unbelieveable! An adult stealing prizes from my kid?!" Complained the female parent. "Right..." Responded Kalego. "Do something about this!" Demanded the husband. "I shall lock them up." Said Kalego. Ironically, Kalego froze when he saw Opera play the arrow shooting game. The couple told Kalego that it was Opera to teach a lesson to, but they saw him walk away. "" Called the wife. "What's gotten into him?" Wondered the husband. It's understandable why Kalego doesn't want to involve hinself with Opera. He'd rather ignore the parents' complaints than face up with his shameless . "Opera, I have a feeling that you're going to get us into trouble like this." Whispered Ryūko with consideration. "Is that so?" Asked Opera, "My apologies, Ryūko-sama."
In The Late Evening
It was time for the Magical Apparatus Battler's fireworks show. Asmodeus lit the fuses and launchpads fired the firework shells high into the air, where they explode as beautiful light flowers. It was a huge success, everyone absolutely enjoyed Ryūko's Battler's firework display. All present at the party were having a ton of fun.

8 237Does Hell Have an Adventurers' Guild?
I have decided to try out a different style. I cannot say much at this point, the story is mostly fantasy/romance and will evolve as I go, but it will involve an "adventurers' guild" in a demonic setting. MC will be a reincarnator becoming a denizen of hell, I will add vital description as I go. Gore will be used with reason, some bad words here and there and severe explicit or traumatizing content will be announced in advance, but it will not be the focus of the work.
