DXD: The Villainous Devil Signs-in into the Mash-up Anime World

Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Katerea Leviathan



Lucius and Seekvaira found themselves transported to a mysterious alternate space.

"Lucius-kun... that teleportation magic circle just now."

Seekvaira recognized the pattern immediately.

"Yes, it was the sigil of the Old Satan Leviathan."

Lucius nodded.

He was more than familiar with that sigil.

After all... the magic circles he used bore the same mark!

The next moment, a dark purple teleportation magic circle shimmered before them.

From within, a tall and imposing figure emerged, wielding a staff in one hand.

A strikingly tall and dark-skinned woman stepped out gracefully. She exuded an air of refined authority—an archetypal dark-skinned dominatrix.

Everyone knew that arrogance and a certain level of "discipline" were common traits among women like her.

The statuesque, dark-skinned woman smirked haughtily, gazing down at Lucius as if he were nothing more than an insect.

"The counterfeit Leviathan embraced by the usurper Satans. Welcome to my domain."

"I've heard you were granted Evil Pieces recently?" Katerea licked her lips as she spoke.

"Yes, I was granted them."

"Katerea, why have you come to find me?"

Lucius directly addressed the dark-skinned woman by name.

Katerea Leviathan.

She had long, ash-blonde hair, with red-framed glasses resting on her nose. Two braided locks fell elegantly over her ample chest.

Her wine-red stockings and unique Maou outfit didn't fully cover her, leaving her thighs and abdomen quite eye-catching.

Judging from the fullness of her thighs and the flatness of her stomach, Caterina might not excel as a Maou, but she certainly excelled as a woman.

Truth be told, Katerea was a weakling in terms of combat prowess.

Because for a Satan, true strength was the only thing that mattered.

And she... was lacking.

Katerea Leviathan, the offspring of the previous Leviathan Satan.

In her attempt to reclaim the title of Satan, she had aligned herself with the Khaos Brigade, leading the Leviathan faction within the Old Satan faction.

At best, she was a minor warlord in the grand scheme of things.

One could say that Serafall was often ridiculed as a "miniature Katerea."

In the original story.

During the Three Factions' peace talks, Katerea, alongside her allies, attempted an assassination.

She battled Azazel, utilizing the power of Ophis' "Snake" to enhance herself.

Even so, she was utterly outmatched.

In a desperate final act, she attempted to self-destruct, intending to take Azazel down with her.

But the seasoned Fallen Angel leader severed his own arm to escape, before mercilessly ending her.

Her strength was unimpressive. Even with Ophis' boost, she barely scraped the peak Satan-class level.

Azazel didn't even need to use his artificial Sacred Gear to defeat her.

Instead, he merely used the fight as an experiment to gauge his own technology's effectiveness.

In short.

She was both weak and foolish.

To think that obtaining Ophis' "Snake" was enough to challenge the three leaders of the supernatural world...

Did she truly believe seasoned war veterans could be easily overcome by a second-rate Leviathan?

"Katerea?"

Hearing Lucius call her name with zero respect, Katerea's gaze turned icy.

"Do not call me Katerea!"

"You will address me as the True Satan Leviathan! You imposter!"

[Aqua Blast!]

Raising her staff, Katerea unleashed a torrent of water straight toward Lucius.

"Lucius-kun! Watch out!"

Seekvaira reacted swiftly, deploying the Grand Duke family's signature defensive magic, blocking the oncoming torrent.

"Hmph! The heiress of House Agares?"

"How laughable that a family of fence-sitters dares to stand before me!"

Katerea sneered, intensifying her magical output.

"An Old Satan... and a Satan-class one, at that."

Seekvaira pursed her lips.

Although she was not Katerea's match, she was among the top-tier Ultimate-Class Devils.

She wouldn't be easily defeated.

Lucius, however, made no move to assist Seekvaira.

Instead, he quietly retrieved a pet collar from his system inventory.

Hiding it within his sleeve, he turned his gaze back toward Katerea.

"Katerea, what exactly do you want from me?"

"What do I want? You dare to ask?!"

Katerea's lips curled into a contemptuous smirk.

"Of course, I'm here to rescue you from the pathetic usurpers you serve!"

"Rescue me? Now?"

"If that were truly your goal, shouldn't you have made a move much earlier?"

Lucius countered.

"Hmph! And you wonder why it's now?!"

Katerea let out a sharp laugh.

This traitorous filth had the audacity to question her timing!?

"It's because I've heard you were given Evil Pieces! You are meant to marry the usurper Leviathan's sister!"

"I cannot allow a counterfeit Leviathan to wed the sister of a fraud! It would be an insult to the true Satan Leviathan!"

Katerea's voice was filled with righteous fury.

"Ah, so you came because of my engagement with Sona... well, that's no longer an issue."

Lucius responded calmly.

"Hah?"

Katerea's head tilted slightly in confusion.

Did she hear that right?

"I said, my engagement with Sona has already been annulled."

"The one standing beside me—Seekvaira—is my true partner."

Lucius confidently took Seekvaira's hand.

"Seekvaira?"

"Seekvaira Agares?!"

"Your lover?!"

"Huh?!"

When Katerea let out that final "huh?!," it wasn't because she had doubts—it was because she thought Lucius was out of his mind.

Seekvaira, while still holding back Katerea's attack, calmly replied.

"Yes. Lucius-kun is my lover."

"If you came here to break off Lucius-kun's engagement with Sona, you may leave."

Although Seekvaira was at a disadvantage fighting a Satan-class opponent, she wasn't one to back down.

"Hmph! You think I'd just leave because you told me to?! That would be humiliating!"

Katerea scoffed and poured even more power into her magic.

Seekvaira's defenses began to buckle.

But at that moment—

Lucius activated the Boosted Gear's full power.

[Transfer!]

A brilliant green glow flared from Lucius' gauntlet as he pressed his palm to Seekvaira's back.

[Boosted Transfer!]

Seekvaira's magic surged, instantly repelling Katerea's attack!

"Tsk!"

Katerea's expression darkened as she glared at Seekvaira.

The next moment.

"Boom!~"

[Dragon Shoot!]

A green energy blast shot from Lucien's hand, striking Katerea's arrogant face while she was still in shock!

"Crack~~"

Her red glasses shattered, and Katerea's face instantly turned grim.

Without using Balance Breaker, Lucien couldn't deal significant damage to Katerea.

However.

Lucien's goal wasn't to deal damage.

He did this... to make Katerea lose her cool!

"Boom!~"

Ophis's "Snake" was triggered.

Chaotic energy began to emanate from Katerea.

Magical power!

Immense magical power!

Unparalleled magical power!

Katerea unleashed a terrifying amount of demonic energy that nearly surpassed the limits of a Satan!

The weakened water cannon surged back with renewed force!

Easily overwhelming Seekvaira's defensive spell once again!
