Following Serafall was Rias's speech.
"I will live as the next head of the Gremory family, and winning the Rating Game is my future goal."
Perhaps her superficial dream was truly like this, but what the girl's true dream was in her heart was unknown.
After that, the young devils each stated their dreams and goals, and finally, it was Souna's turn.
"I want to establish a school in the Underworld that teaches knowledge related to Rating Games."
The high-level members were surprised and impressed by the dream of becoming a Devil King, but they frowned at Souna's dream.
"Speaking of schools related to Rating Games, one has already been established, hasn't it?" A high-level member asked Souna as if seeking confirmation.
Souna replied calmly.
"That school only allows upper-class devils and a small portion of privileged devils to attend. I want to establish a school that devils of all ranks, including reincarnated devils, can attend without discrimination."
"Hahahaha… Hahahahahahaha!" However, the response Souna received was laughter from the high-level members that echoed throughout the venue.
Souna, watching from below, wore a complex expression.
Then, the high-level members said mockingly.
"That's impossible!"
"That's truly a masterpiece!"
"I see! So that's what you call a dreamy girl!"
"It's good to be young! But for the next head of the Sitri family to say such nonsensical dreams, it's fortunate that this is a meeting before their debut."
Although Souna was being mocked so mercilessly, Serafall, who doted on his sister, couldn't say anything.
Discrimination from superiors against subordinates, discrimination from pure-bloods against reincarnated devils—this phenomenon was commonplace throughout the Underworld. But even so, Souna still raised her head very seriously, meeting the gazes of those mocking high-level members.
Arthas watched quietly. Rather than saying that Souna's dream was to open a school, it would be more accurate to say that she wanted to change the discrimination in the Underworld that upper-class devils had against lower-class devils and reincarnated devils.
Such a wish was as rebellious as shouting to liberate slaves in a slave-owning society. If Souna wasn't the next head of the Sitri family, the sister of the Devil King Leviathan, she probably wouldn't have been facing mere mockery.
"I'm serious!"
Faced with the mockery, Souna bit her lip, raised her head, and repeated her words stubbornly.
However, repeating her words brought a cold warning from the high-level members.
Lady Souna Sitri. Lower-class devils and reincarnated devils usually discover their talents while serving upper-class devils.
If you establish such a training facility, it would be the same as trying to crush the faces of the old families who possess tradition and glory, you know?
Even if the world of devils enters an era where change is inevitable, there are still things that cannot be changed.
The reason why we're mocking you and not treating your words as treason is because you're the next head of the Sitri family and the sister of Serafall-sama, but those identities are not capital for you to be willful.
"Hey! I say, what you're saying is indeed very reasonable, but to say these words in front of me is truly a masterpiece, it's practically slapping yourselves in the face!"
The sudden voice silenced the chaotic venue. Almost everyone's gazes fell on the same spot, on the black-haired boy with a playful expression on his face.
The young member who had recently received the highest praise, Rias's soldier, had defeated the almost unbeatable Phenex family's third son in a fair Rating Game.
He had also thoroughly defeated the Phenex family's pride using a method that no one could believe: extinguishing flames with ice.
He had delayed the Fallen Angel executive Kokabiel and forced the heir of the old Devil King faction in the worldwide terrorist organization 'Khaos Brigade' to self-destruct.
Each of these things was enough for the high-level members of the Underworld to give him high praise, especially the matters of Kokabiel and the 'Khaos Brigade', which were beyond imagination.
And more importantly, he was just an ordinary soldier, so now, hearing him suddenly speak with such a mocking tone, the expressions on the faces of the high-level members were very awkward.
"I know what you want to say, Gremory family's soldier, but please understand that your appearance is an exceptional case that's one in a million. Not all reincarnated devils are as strong as you."
Most reincarnated devils have very ordinary strength, and they don't even have Divine Dividing Class weapons.
They can only use some artificial artifacts to supplement their strength. I think Ms. Souna Sitri should be well aware of this, right? If I remember correctly, the only one under Ms. Souna who has a Divine Dividing Class weapon is her Queen.
"Originally, there was a soldier with very good potential… but sadly, he disappeared?"
"What do you mean by disappeared? He probably thought his master was too whimsical and defected, right?"
"Hahaha, that's not impossible."
Hearing the high-level devils' reckless comments, Souna could only clench her fists and remain silent, while Serafall, sitting in the high seat, was also somewhat unable to bear it. Just then, Arthas stepped forward and gently pulled Souna behind him.
"What, do you have something else to say, Gremory family's soldier? We've all seen your strength, but what does that have to do with Souna Sitri-sama?"
"Of course, it has something to do with it, and it has a lot to do with it, because I'm not just Rias's soldier; at the same time, I'm also Souna's soldier!"
As soon as these words came out, the entire hall fell silent. All the high-level devils thought Arthas was joking, while the four Devil Kings sitting in the highest seats had different expressions.
Sirzechs and Serafall had naturally told Beelzebub and Asmodeus about Arthas's special nature, especially Beelzebub, the developer of the Evil Pieces, who had originally planned to ask Arthas to come over alone later to study him.
And the four Devil Kings had agreed to keep Arthas's secret, but now, they didn't expect him to say it himself.
Sirzechs smiled wryly, while Serafall wore a look of relief.
This brat, Souna really didn't misjudge him. I'll barely consider you qualified now.
