Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of explosions echoed in the training ground as Tenraku and the girls trained tirelessly to prepare for any potential battles. Since the formation of the D×D Team, they have been training every day.

Xenovia, Irina, Karlamine, Siris, Meguri Tomoe, and others practiced swordsmanship, while Yubelluna, Akeno, Xuelan, Isabela, and others familiarized themselves with their Sacred Gears.

On one side of the training ground, Tenraku was guiding Lavinia on matters concerning Sacred Gears.

Meanwhile, in the sky, two ice princesses flew back and forth, constantly attacking and colliding. Explosions of ice crystals and frost erupted in the air. These ice princesses were manifestations of Tenraku and Lavinia’s Eternal Ice Princess – Absolute Demise.

However, Tenraku’s ice princess appeared more mature and dignified, perhaps better suited to be called an ice princess queen.

The ice princess and ice princess queen engaged in fierce aerial combat, their chilling aura threatening to freeze the entire sky. Although they started evenly matched, over time, the ice princess began to fall behind.

Eventually, she was shattered by countless ice spears released by the ice princess queen, and her icy aura was absorbed and consumed.

“Why is it that I, the original owner of the Sacred Gear, always end up losing?” Lavinia complained as she watched the ice princess queen descend back to the ground.

“If you feel bad about losing, I’ll go easy on you next time,” Tenraku teased.

“Never mind,” Lavinia replied with a hint of annoyance. She wasn’t the type to be sore about losing. If Tenraku let her win, the training wouldn’t be meaningful.

The Eternal Ice Princess – Absolute Demise was a powerful Sacred Gear, and Lavinia was a talented magic user. Although she had only trained with Tenraku for a few days, Lavinia had made significant progress.

However, when it came to controlling Sacred Gears, Tenraku was supremely confident. There was no one in the world who could match him!

Just as Tenraku and Lavinia were about to train again, Marion’s figure suddenly appeared.

“Lord Tenraku, there’s a visitor,” She announced.

After washing up and changing into clean clothes, Tenraku and the girls returned to the hall, where Rias and Sona were entertaining the guests.

There were two visitors: Nun Griselda, whom they were familiar with, and a middle-aged man with brown hair similar to Irina’s, dressed in priestly attire.

At the sight of the man, both Tenraku and Irina were stunned. Because that man was none other than Irina’s father!

“Dad!”

“Irina!”

“Dad, are you okay? Why did you suddenly come here?”

“I came back here for some work-related matters, of course, I had to come and see my little Angel,” Shidou Touji replied affectionately, patting Irina’s head as she ran into his arms with a surprised expression.

“Uncle Shidou, it’s been a while,” Tenraku greeted as he approached.

Shidou Touji nodded and then patted Tenraku’s shoulder. “You rascal, you really fooled us hard!”

Tenraku couldn’t help but smile wryly. “Uncle Shidou, I couldn’t awaken the Phenex family’s bloodline back then. My mother brought me to the Human World to live a normal life. We didn’t intend to deceive you.”

“I’ve heard about your situation. Fortunately, you didn’t reveal your true identity back then. If I had discovered it, I might have condemned you,” Shidou Touji joked, eliciting laughter from the girls nearby.

Strictly speaking, Shidou Touji wasn’t joking. When Tenraku and Irina were young, the relationships between major factions were extremely tense, and the Church and Devils were not as friendly as they are now.

If Shidou Touji had discovered that Tenraku was the heir of the Phenex family, even if he spared Tenraku out of past friendship, he would never allow Irina to have any contact with him.

Fortunately, none of these things happened…

“Tenraku, I know about you and Irina. Don’t you have anything to explain to me?” Shidou Touji suddenly became serious as he looked at Tenraku.

“Dad, don’t blame Tenraku, it’s just that…” Irina, thinking her father was going to cause trouble for Tenraku, began to explain.

Shidou Touji’s face darkened a bit. This stubborn girl, even before getting married, she’s already standing up for her man. This brat has devoured you completely, why should I blame him and not you?

“Irina, calm down. Leave everything to me,” Tenraku gestured to the girl not to be nervous, then turned to Shidou Touji.

“Uncle Shidou, I love Irina, and I want her to be my wife. Please trust me, I will never let Irina down!” Tenraku said solemnly.

“Tenraku, why are you saying such things in front of Dad…” Irina blushed shyly, unable to contain her embarrassment, but her heart was filled with sweetness.

“Tenraku, you should already be engaged to the princess of the House of Gremory, and there are many other members of your harem here. What makes you think you won’t let Irina down?” Shidou Touji questioned, while Tenraku scratched his head and replied calmly.

“Dad, Tenraku treats me well, and so does everyone else at home,” Irina chimed in quickly, afraid that her father would make trouble for Tenraku.

Shaking his head, Shidou Touji thought to himself, this silly girl, can’t you cooperate a little with your old man who’s trying to help you?

With such a silly daughter, Shidou Touji knew he couldn’t go on like this. His expression softened.

“Tenraku, since you and Irina are already like this, her mother and I won’t stop you anymore. But as Irina’s father, if I ever find out that you’ve let her down, even if you’re now the famous Red Dragon Emperor or White Dragon Sovereign, I won’t let you off lightly.”

“Uncle Shidou, I promise, I will never let Irina down,” Tenraku said seriously, giving his assurance.

“Well, I believe you, Tenraku. Both of you, work hard. Actually, her mother and I have been wanting to hold our grandchild for a long time,” the atmosphere lightened, and a smile appeared on Shidou Touji’s face, while Irina blushed instantly.

“Dad, what are you saying? I’m not talking to you anymore!”

“Haha, this is what your mother asked me to remind you before I set off. She’s been wanting to hold her grandchild for a long time.”

“My… Mom said that?!”

“Cough cough, Uncle Shidou, Irina and I will definitely work hard…”
