...cosplay, I froze in sheer embarrassment!
As my face reddened, so too did the cheeks of the black haired girl wearing an old Shinto priestess red and white outfit. Her hands covered her face, but the cracks in her fingers tell a different story.
Unlike before, the girl's hair had grown longer, and went from her mid-back to her butt in length.
She appears to be outside with a Naginata laying on the ground, in the middle of a mountain forest. The many slashes on a massive tree showed she was practicing when our mirrors connected.
After I blanked, I ended up smiling at her, pretending I was not dressed as a fucking Pokemon Trainer. I waved all cool-like.
The girl woke up from her daze and looked like she remembered something, and pulled out a calligraphy scroll she had pre-painted. She held it to me and unfurled it with a serious look.
[Mr Gremory Devil, I live on the back-mountain of the Shinra Clan, please rescue me, and I will pay you. I live in Kyoto, and my family has banished me for my Demon Mirror, please?]
Messing with the 5 Principle clans of Japan is not wise politically, but the helpless and sad look in her eyes tugged at my heartstrings, a flaw for a Devil to have. .
. (Tsubaki Shinra is not one of the Characters that Ray remembers well, and the fact she does not wear glasses makes this even more pronounced.
Yes, if Ray knew that she was the future Queen of his best friend, he would have not helped, but. .
. )
Using illusion magic, I wrote and made a picture for the girl.
[Then draw this Magic Circle on the ground while I draw mine, and I will rescue you for a price, an equal price. Do you agree, Human?]
The girl nodded and used her Shinto Magic to begin infusing magic into the ground she was drawing with her weapon. I put up a non-detection magic, then quickly began to make my Transportation circle to forcefully burst through the Shinra defenses.
With a mortal drawing an arriving-circle willingly, and my massive strength, this little Human barrier cannot keep me out.
(This is cannon material, as Sirzechs had the strength to even forcefully burst through a barrier powered by Trihexa, so a simple Shinra Clan circle won't be a problem with help from the inside. )
Just as we both finished our circles, her mirror shattered, revealing a redheaded Ash Ketchum. For some reason, I had this bad feeling I was capturing a Pokemon for some unknown reason?
As I activated my circle on the floor, I vanished from the changing room. .

Two things struck me as I arrived in the mountain forest, first was the frightened Human girl, a bit hesitant of making a contract with a Devil. But the second thing I noticed was my Gremory treasure and talent urge was guiding me to this Japanese shrine maiden, so I smiled and introduced myself.
"Greetings Miss Shinra, I am Ray Gremory, the next Heir to the Gremory House. I do apologize, but my entry has probably been discovered by your Clan, so our greetings are short.
By the time I make my return Circle, please make up your mind if you will come along. And who might you be?"
With a shy and nervous voice, she managed to stutter out.
"T-Tsubaki Shinra, and please rescue me from here, Mr Gremory. "
I nod and tell her.
"Tsubaki, a pretty flower name. Please just call me Ray, I think we are around the same age after-all.
I will be done shortly if you have anything you wish to bring with you from your small home. "
"I-I have nothing. .
. "
She looked a bit nervous at saying that, implying she has nothing to pay with. Yes, it is in a Devil's nature to never work for free.
. .
But I cannot tell her I am a bit different, but I cannot tell other Devils I have a slightly different mindset. One that cannot let a poor girl suffer, sigh.
. .
We said nothing as I finished. I held my hand out to her and said with sincerity.
"Tsubaki, even if you cannot pay, you also cannot stay here, or they will kill you for summoning a Devil. So just come and do not worry.
We only made a verbal contract, and nothing in writing, so let us flee. "
Hearing my words, she did not expect to come from a Noble Devil, she placed her free hand in mine, as my crimson light enveloped the two of us.
A short while after the two children vanished, a large group of 12 priests came rushing ready for battle, as they inspected. One Shinra priest pointed to the Gremory circle and the leader frowned.
He grumbled.
"So the cursed child went and summoned the Devil. Tell the Patriarch that Tsubaki has betrayed the clan.
. .
Why did it have to be the Gremory, sigh. Whoever punched a hole here was very-strong, stronger than the Patriarch.
. .
"

Back in the changing room, the Pokemon Trainer and Shinto Priestess arrived, an interesting Cosplay duo. Realizing where they were, the young woman looked down and blushed in shame.
Knock Knock!
[Ray, it has been too long, I am coming in. .
. ]
As my Father saw the circle vanishing and the girl I was hiding behind me, my Father guessed what could have happened, but he put on his playful smile and said.
"Oh! Ray, if I knew, I would have pretended to see nothing, but to think you had smuggled a Human girl into your changing room, should I come back later?"
Tsubaki was pure red, and only looked at the floor at the older Devils words, but I broke the humorous mood and admitted.
"Father, I am sorry, I may have offended the Shinra Principal clan by taking this girl. .
I could not leave her there, sorry. So this is what happened.
