The tension in the living room was high after Jin’s parents excused themselves to give time to youngun, or so they said.
As you’ve guessed, the tension came from the two girls inside the room. If you put enemies, maybe even mortal enemies, against each other, then you would get this kind of tension.
Issei’s acting girlfriend and Jin’s fake lover were literally glaring at each other, wary of each other's presence.
On one side, Sona appeared to be calm and could control herself. But, Jin felt something like malice came from Amano Yuuma being directed at everyone in the room, even Issei. His brother looked uncomfortable as he looked back and forth between him and Amano Yuuma.
‘Aha! So the Devil isn’t hostile, and whatever Amano Yuuma is, she is hostile toward the Devil and mankind.’
After a few minutes of silence, Issei couldn’t handle it anymore and tried to break the ice.
“H-Hey… Should we play a game together?”
His little brother was nervous. His stutter was proof of that.
“Good idea.”
Unexpectedly, the one who answered Issei while clapping her hands was Amano Yuuma. Her lips curled up into a grin as she glanced at Sona.
Facing her gaze, Sona crossed her arms and muttered under her breath.
“What is she planning?”
Jin, who sat beside her, caught what she said.
‘Indeed, what’s she planning?’
He had the same question as Sona. Great minds think alike, they said. But, the only ignorant person in the room decided to move along by himself without asking Jin and Sona.
“Great! Then, what should we play? I think playing cards is good.”
“I agree.”
“Then wait here! I will get the card in my room.”
Before Jin or Sona could even open their mouths, it had been decided that they would play a card. And Issei was the one who volunteered to get the card, leaving the three of them in the living room.
Issei’s footsteps rang in the house. It went upstairs. Then a loud thud rang before the footsteps stopped.
Jin was worried about the sound, but as soon as the footsteps couldn’t be heard anymore, the atmosphere inside the living room became heavy. Amano Yuuma erased her façade, even though Jin was still in the room. Her lips curled from ear to ear.
“What a thing. To think that a Sitri would date a normal human. It’s laughable to the point that this will become a piece of great news in the Supernatural world.”
Kukukuku, Amano Yuuma chuckled as her expression twisted maniacally.
This situation was unexpected. Jin didn’t know that someone from Supernatural would reveal themselves this easily. It made him wonder whether they could erase people’s memories.
‘If that’s the case, then I can understand why they didn’t even try to hide. But if that’s true… then this World is more fucked up than what I previously thought. I need to step up my game too.’ He frowned.
“What are you talking about?”
Sona pretended to be ignorant mainly because Jin was here.
A normal person. An innocent bystander that had no relation to the Supernatural world. Such was Jin’s position in Sona’s eyes.
Indeed, she had tried to rope him to her peerage. But he managed to get away because he had a wonderful mind. She respected his choice.
However, the other party didn’t seem to care about Jin’s existence.
“Why pretend to be ignorant, oh Heir of Sitri.” The girl, an existence called Yuuma Amano, glanced at Jin. “Could it be he doesn’t know? He’s just a normal person like the fool that I made asleep upstairs?”
‘Alright, calm down, Jin. You’re an ignorant person. You don’t know anything about Supernatural, so act like one. And, now is the perfect time to enter the conversation.’
“What are you talking about? Heir of Sitri?” Jin asked as he glanced at Sona suspiciously. “Who is Sitri? No one here has the name of Sitri.”
Of course, that was just a lie. Jin knew. Rather, he had guessed who Sitri was. He only never thought to hear that name here.

After he found out about Supernatural, he read all kinds of myths. After knowing the word Devil from Freed, Jin searched the internet about Devil and found about 72 Lesser keys of Solomon. Sitri was one of them.
‘That means I got a big target right off the bat. Is this a blessing or a curse? I should make sure to make Sona fall later. No matter what method I could use, I needed to make sure that she won’t be able to live without me again. If not, then I would be in danger.’
“I think she means one of the Devil in the Lesser Key of Solomon.” Unexpectedly, Sona answered with something that he had thought earlier. A slight lie combined with truth.
“Hey, Jin-kun. Is your brother’s girlfriend alright? I think she read too many books.” She continued.
‘She dodged the question. Let’s just follow along for now. I need to wait for the perfect chance to strike Sona, and that’s when the tension disappears.’
“Maybe–”
“Don’t act like a dumb person, Sona Sitri. I certainly mean you.”
At that moment, Amano Yuuma changed. Maybe transformed was the right word. Her uniforms tore, and her clothes turned into some latex corset often used in adult bondage videos.
From her back, two feathery black wings spurted out. Some feathers fell to the floor as the wings unfurled.
Without waiting for a second longer, a pink light spear appeared in Amano Yuuma’s hand. Seeing the light spear, a sense of danger was instilled all over Jin’s body. His plan had gone awry, and he was in grave danger now.
Upon seeing Amano Yuuma’s transformation, Sona shouted.
“Fallen Angel! I knew it!"
His instinct flared. The first thing in his thought was how to avoid or block the light spear. His hand felt something on his right; his bag. Remembering what kind of thing was inside the bag, he quickly took it out and did whatever was in his mind. This was his last resort.
Even if Sona found out he had something like a light sword, he could always blame the madman for attacking him and making Sona feel guilty as it was partly her fault that Jin was attacked. All in all, he was not at a disadvantage.
But he didn’t know how to use the light sword yet. Even so, he swung it at the same time Amano Yuuma threw the spear in her hand.
At that moment, a notification rang in his ear.
[Ding! Magic Power Unlocked. 1 Year of Lifespan is used to unlock it!]
[Magic Power: Low Rank]
A surge of knowledge entered Jin’s head, and a light sword appeared from the handle that he held.
The sword met with the spear, deflecting it. The spear lunged on the floor beside Jin.
“Aha! So you really are the one who that Freak talked about!” Amano Yuuma screamed as she flew back, going to the window on the side.
“Sona!” Jin shouted, calling out to Sona, who froze beside him.
Sona immediately snapped out and used her Magic. A Magic Circle appeared in front of her hands as she tried to use Magic.
However, before she could even shoot her Magic, Amano Yuuma had already exited the house as she waved at Jin.
“See you tomorrow, Human. I believe someone will be interested to know the location of your house right now.”
She then flew away, gone from Jin’s sight.
The situation began to calm down. Sona lowered her head as the Magic Circle disappeared. It was awkward.
Both of them looked at each other. Sona glared at him while he smiled awkwardly. That girl, the one that Sona called Fallen Angel, had literally destroyed his plan, but he didn’t mind it. Instead, he decided to take advantage of the situation.
“Now, Jin-kun. It seems that you are holding something interesting.” Sona said as she glanced at the light sword in Jin’s hand. “Care to explain it to me?”
Jin dismissed the light sword. It was easy after he got the knowledge on how to use Magic Power.
Looking back at Sona seriously, Jin shrugged his shoulders, “Before that, Sona…” Jin's voice trailed a little bit before he continued. “I think you need to hear my story and answer some of my questions.”
