After getting ready with Asia and the other girls, Tenraku stepped out of the room and saw the so-called important guest in the living room.
It was old man Odin!
In addition to Odin, there was also his Valkyrie guard Rossweisse and Tenraku's cheap father-in-law Baraqiel.
Azazel had mentioned that Baraqiel, acting as a temporary guard and guide, had been accompanying Odin on visits and sightseeing recently. So Tenraku didn't find it strange to see his cheap father-in-law and Odin together here.
"Oh, young man, you finally came out," Odin greeted but his tone was filled with indescribable envy.
Rias and Yubelluna blushed, and Tenraku's mouth twitched as he inwardly cursed Odin for being insatiable. Meanwhile, Rossweisse, standing beside him, was extremely embarrassed and even landed a few punches on Odin's head.
"Odin-Sama, the Valkyries are already in tears. Please stop doing things that embarrass us any further!" Rossweisse reprimanded.
"Oh come on, I was just joking. Rossweisse, it's because of that uptightness that you haven't been able to find a man," Odin said as he casually ruffled his own hair. He enjoyed teasing his Valkyrie guard like this.
As expected, the innocent Valkyrie instantly felt as if the whole world was mocking her, and tears welled up in her eyes as she collapsed to the ground.
"Wu…wu… I'm just a Valkyrie without a boyfriend. Wu…wu…"
Tenraku couldn't help but feel speechless at Odin's twisted sense of humor. He gestured for Xuelan and the others to help the "injured" Valkyrie up, while he took a seat opposite Odin.
"I apologize, Lord Odin, and Father-in-law, I didn't know you were coming here," Tenraku said.
"Ohhhh… it's we who have rudely intruded. I heard that you were here, so I just came by casually to take a look," Odin stroked his beard and laughed. Baraqiel also nodded in acknowledgment, but when he looked at Akeno, who had her head lowered, a hint of sadness appeared on his face.
Tenraku's cheap father-in-law didn't know that Akeno had already forgiven him, and repairing their strained relationship after such a long time was not something that could be done overnight.
However, Akeno's heart knot had been untied, and it was only a matter of time before father and daughter reconciled. Tenraku had no intention of interfering further in this; he believed that everything would naturally fall into place.
"Has Lord Odin's visit to the Underworld concluded?" Tenraku asked.
"More or less. Next, I plan to visit the gods of this country. There are some things I want to discuss with them. After all, we haven't had much communication so far," Odin nodded in response before speaking about his future plans.
The old man's actions were akin to a state visit, representing the Northern European God's visit to the Devils, Angels, Fallen Angels, and the entire Eastern Gods, conveying a message of peace and friendship. It can be said that it held great significance for the entire mythological system.
However, these matters didn't concern Tenraku much. After casually chatting with Odin, Tenraku had Marion and the others prepare a sumptuous feast and warmly entertained Odin.
Aside from his slightly lecherous demeanor, Odin was actually not a bad person. He was approachable and didn't carry the air of a God King. But Tenraku had to be on guard against Odin's lecherous behavior.
Rias and the girls were clearly aware of it too as they all changed into tightly wrapped clothes, resolutely not giving the old pervert any opportunity to take advantage of them, much to Odin's disappointment.
After finishing the meal, they rested for a while, and Odin, Rossweisse, and Baraqiel also planned to leave.
"Tenraku, my boy, thank you for your hospitality," Odin said before leaving. "I asked Michael and Sirzechs to arrange a meeting with the gods of this country in a few days. If you're interested, you can join us."
Since Odin extended the invitation, Tenraku decided not to be impolite. Although he wasn't particularly interested in it, he couldn't reject Odin's well-intentioned offer.
"Ohhhhh… Then, for now, goodbye, Tenraku, and you lovely little girls," Odin waved his hand and walked towards his own dedicated divine vehicle. Rossweisse and Baraqiel bid farewell to everyone before leaving as well.
However, just as they were about to depart, Akeno suddenly came out.
"Please wait a moment," Akeno said, and Baraqiel immediately stopped in his tracks.
"Akeno, you…" Baraqiel hesitated, his expression filled with anticipation but also apprehension.
Seeing her father's appearance, Akeno felt a mixture of sadness and relief. She took a deep breath and finally decided to say what she wanted to say.
"Father, Otou-sama, please take care of your duties as a guard," Akeno said. Although it was a simple expression of concern, it sounded like the most beautiful voice in the world to Baraqiel, and he was filled with joy and excitement.
"Yes, Akeno, I will!" Despite being a seasoned warrior, Baraqiel was as happy as a child who had just received candy. With an excited expression, he looked deeply at Akeno before turning around and leaving.

Kuoh Academy, Kendo Club:
Da! Da!
In the middle of the dojo, Murayama was engaged in an intense battle, while Tenraku, Kiryuu Aika, and the other Kendo Club girls watched their duel from the sidelines.
As the main forces of the Kendo Club, both Murayama and her opponent displayed remarkable swordsmanship. Apart from Kiryuu Aika, the dark horse who rose to prominence later, there were only a handful of members in the Kendo Club who could match their skill.
They fought fiercely, evenly matched and neither side was able to defeat the other. As their stamina was starting to wane, they exchanged a determined glance, seemingly deciding something.
"Hyah!"
With a cry, both girls leaped into the air and swung their wooden swords downward.
Sila…
Amidst the astonished expressions of the other girls, two crescent-shaped sword energy attacks shot out and collided in mid-air, canceling each other out.
Bothe girls landed back on the ground with pale faces wearing wry smiles on their face. They hadn't expected that even with such a move, they still couldn't emerge as the victor.
