Duanmu Huai had always acted swiftly and decisively—or perhaps he was simply too lazy to think things through. Before long, Naruse Mio and Maria entered Komaou Academy as transfer students.
Their arrival naturally attracted the attention of quite a few boys at Komaou Academy. After all, Naruse Mio was beautiful and well-endowed. Maria was rather petite, but she still caught the attention of some boys with latent criminal tendencies. She was mischievous and adorable, too, which only made many of the boys even more excited.
Of course, excitement was one thing. Once they learned that the two girls were Duanmu Huai's relatives, everyone had no choice but to keep their distance... Duanmu Huai was a legendary figure at this school, and no boy dared to make trouble in front of him. Because of that, Naruse Mio and Maria did not encounter too much trouble on their first day as transfer students.
However, for them, the real test had only just begun.
"Hello, my name is Naruse Mio. It's a pleasure to meet you. I look forward to your guidance, Rias-senpai."
Standing before Rias, Naruse Mio respectfully lowered her head in a bow—her way of putting it was not technically wrong. After all, whether in terms of their school years or the length of time they had lived as Devils, Rias could indeed be considered Naruse Mio's senior.
Still... the two of them really did look somewhat alike.
Standing beside them, Duanmu Huai carefully sized up Naruse Mio and Rias. He had to admit that there were similarities between them. For example, both had red hair, though Rias wore hers loose and long, while Naruse Mio had twin tails. In terms of bearing, Rias was more mature and composed.
By comparison, Naruse Mio still could not hide her childish, youthful-girl air.
