=========================================
Many humans in this world might be aware of the existence of Devils.
With a shrug, Badr decided not to dwell on it. He smiled professionally and began handing out flyers on the street.
"Please take a look at our latest fortune-telling and wish-granting event."
"Excuse me, this is our latest fortune-telling and wish-granting event. Please take a moment to learn about it."
"Hello... Please have a look..."
"..."
Badr had also handed out flyers in his previous life, and the work felt no different now.
Most people would wave their hands in disinterest, some wouldn't even bother to take a flyer, and only a few would reluctantly accept one out of politeness.
Badr knew those people would likely throw the flyer away without looking at it. Only a handful might be curious enough to stop and chat for a moment.
Nonetheless, Badr distributed most of his flyers after several hours of effort.
Great, just a few more to go, and the job will be done.
As he thought this, he saw a beautiful figure approaching. He quickly put on a practised smile and stepped forward.
"Hello... Our club's latest fortune-telling and wish-granting event. Would you like to learn more?"
The girl in front of him seemed a bit surprised.
"Surprising, you can see me..."
Badr looked slightly confused, tilting his head at the girl before him. "…??"
...
Badr didn't quite understand what the girl meant by her words.
What did she mean by saying he could still see her?
He took a closer look at the girl. Although wearing a regular high school uniform, she gave off the impression of a mature beauty with a hint of laziness.
Her slender limbs were perfectly proportioned, like a model from a display window, meticulously crafted to the finest proportions.
Her eyes were deep, and her face was minor yet severe, giving her an air of authority and a mature woman's charm.
"What do you mean by 'you can still see me'?" Badr asked curiously.
The girl responded calmly, "Just as it sounds."
"…I see you clearly," Badr replied, though he was puzzled.
Could she be a ghost? Was it because he was now a Devil that he could see her?
Rias and the others didn't mention the existence of beautiful ghosts in this world...
"Are you saying that others can't see you?"
Badr grew more cautious, given the strange events he had encountered recently.
"Although I don't want to admit it, that's true. It doesn't have a major impact but is quite bothersome."
The girl spoke calmly, her expression unchanged.
Hearing this, Badr felt a bit relieved. The girl didn't seem threatening.
At least Badr didn't sense any hostility from her; otherwise, his Devil instincts would have been triggered.
"Then take a look at our fortune-telling and wish-granting event. Perhaps one of your wishes could come true."
Realizing that this girl could be an ideal contract target, Badr quickly extended an invitation.
However, Badr couldn't shake the feeling that she looked familiar.
Had he seen her somewhere before?
While pondering this, the girl seemed somewhat comforted that Badr could see her.
She reached out and took the flyer from him.
"Huh... What's this? A magic circle? Is this some superstitious propaganda?"
See! I knew it would be taken as superstition!!
Badr inwardly complained but quickly regained his composure, flashing a professional smile.
"No, this is our club's fortune-telling and wish-granting event. It's very effective. It's said that carrying this brings good luck."
"Occult Research Club."
The girl muttered, her eyes showing a hint of interest.
Her current invisible state was indeed within the realm of mysticism...
She kept the flyer and looked at Badr. "I'll take a look when I have time. Goodbye."
"Thank you very much."
Badr smiled, and the girl walked away after putting away the flyer.
After walking some distance, she suddenly paused and looked back at Badr with a curious expression.
"Why do I feel something strange? Oh, it's because his smile looks so fake. Could he be a newcomer in the entertainment industry..."
She said this to herself and then disappeared into the crowd.
Unbeknownst to her, Badr heard her words.
With his Devil-enhanced body, he could hear sounds from hundreds of meters away.
Badr thought his acting skills were good enough, but today, he met an expert who saw through him at a glance...
No wonder she's a professional actress.
Wait, an actress?
Suddenly, Badr thought of something and froze.
"Why does she seem familiar..."
He looked up at a distant building, where a screen was playing an advertisement. The girl in the ad smiled sweetly— the same girl who had just left.
"Sakurajima Mai..."
He read the name of the brand ambassador in the advertisement and blinked.
Not only was she an actress, but she was a big star.
No wonder she saw through him instantly; he was an amateur compared to a professional...
So, she wasn't a ghost?
Badr pondered, realizing there might be humans with extraordinary abilities in this world, too...
Well, with angels, Devils, and monsters around, it's not surprising for humans to have extraordinary powers.
Badr shrugged and resumed handing out the remaining flyers.
He had distributed quite a few today. Hopefully, someone would trigger the summoning magic and summon him...
Badr was eager to find contract targets;
After all, Devils could only gain strength from contracts, which made them more powerful.
...
After finishing his work, Badr prepared to head home.
Walking alone on the way back, Badr thought about Rias and the others' teleportation techniques.
According to Himejima Akeno, higher-ranked Devils could only use those skills. At his current low level, Badr couldn't even attempt it.
If only he could use teleportation, it would be much more convenient...
To raise his rank, he needed to work hard to make contracts, which meant handing out flyers and finding contract targets.
He was still at the very beginning stage...
Badr sighed inwardly.
Suddenly, he felt a tightness in his body, and his heart skipped a beat!
This was his Devil instincts alerting him to danger!
A threat was approaching!
Badr's steps slowed as he narrowed his eyes, looking ahead.
By now, it was dark, and the surroundings were deserted, but Badr's night vision was better than in the daytime since becoming a Devil.
Black feathers fell from the sky as a seductive woman with black wings descended.
A fallen angel!?
Badr frowned, silently cursing.
He hadn't expected to encounter another fallen angel so soon...
The fallen angel spotted Badr first. She was scantily clad, with only a few strips of cloth barely covering her body, surprisingly beautiful.
However, despite her seductive appearance, her thick black eye shadow gave her a creepy look.
"It's troublesome to have a low-level Devil like you here. Killing a weakling like you is too boring. I don't even want to dirty my Light Spear."
The fallen angel spoke with undisguised malice.
Although the three factions had signed a peace treaty, their enmity remained unchanged;
In simple terms, most angels, Devils, and fallen angels wanted to kill each other on sight...
Hearing the fallen angel's contempt, Badr naturally didn't hold back. He murmured with a smirk:
"Seeing such a tacky slut at night makes my middle finger twitch."
Fallen Angel: "..."
...
Badr wasn't one to hold back;
Sensing the fallen angel's killing intent, he calculated his chances of defeating her. Of course, he wouldn't be polite.
His sharp words immediately enraged the fallen angel, her pupils narrowing like an angry tigress.
"Just a lowly Devil daring to disrespect me!?"
Her anger flared, and a barrier formed, covering the area. She raised her hand, summoning a Light Spear and hurling it at Badr!
But Badr wasn't as passive this time as when he first encountered a fallen angel!
His eyes tracked the Light Spear's trajectory. What was once unavoidable now seemed clear to him!
Badr quickly jumped over ten meters with a mighty leap, landing steadily.
The Light Spear exploded, causing a massive shockwave that tore the surrounding plants.
So, she's not that strong!
Though more potent than the fallen angel he killed a few days ago, Badr's Devil body and his Sacred Gear should give him a fighting chance!
Badr judged that he could handle her attacks!
Then, let's try to kill her.
He remembered Rias's advice.
