I took all my free stat points and immediately dumped them into [Luck]. I was going to need it to get out of this situation if whoever was coming through that portal was powerful.

The teleportation circle on the floor glowed a steady orange before it shifted to red. And then I saw who had teleported into the clubroom.
"Big Sister Rias! I came to play!" A young child dressed in medieval noble clothing and had bright red hair shouted loudly. He threw his hands up in the air as he cheered. And then… he lowered them back down and frowned when he noticed my group. Two and a half Fallen Angels, an Asgardian goddess, and a nun all stared back at him.
Millicas stared at us awkwardly, and we stared back at him. "Uh oh…" He said as his eyes widened in shock. "You know what… I'll just visit my aunt later…" He tried to step back into the teleportation circle, but I ran forward and grabbed him.
"Let me go!" The kid shouted out and tried to kick me. In response, I conjured a [Lightdagger] and held it up to his face. He immediately stopped struggling. He didn't quiet down, though.
"Let me go! My mom is coming soon after me and you'll be sorry!" Millicas Gremory shouted out. That was what I was afraid of… at least it wasn't Sirzechs himself, not yet at least.
"Hmmmm." With horrible timing, Akeno started to wake up where I had left her on the couch. She sprang up quickly and jumped to her feet. Akeno took in the room and snarled at me when she noticed what was going on. "Let go of Millicas, you bitch!" Akeno screamed and held her hand towards me. "Huh!? My magic isn't working!" Akeno looked panicked.
"Hah? Your demonic power is all gone now! If you want to use magic, then you use your light energy, traitor!" Raynare said with a smirk towards Akeno.
Akeno started to pale as realization dawned upon her.
"Um, Layla. Why exactly are you taking a young child hostage?" Sif asked me with some concern.
"Because his mom will be here soon and she'll kill us all if I don't."
Sif nodded. "I guess that makes sense… it doesn't feel right, though." As an Asgardian, she probably thought my actions were dishonorable.
"Even if he is the spawn of devils. He's still a child. I'm sure he hasn't committed any sins against the Lord." Asia spoke up. She gave Millicas a gentle smile. She really was too kind for this world.
"That's right!" Akeno, who was now powerless because she refused to use her light energy, spoke up. "Millicas is a sweet boy who's never harmed a soul. Let him go!"
Millicas trembled in my grip. I could tell the [Lightdagger] I was holding up near him was causing him great discomfort. He'd probably never been around Light energy in his whole life.
"Fuck you, bitch. You don't know anything about devils, do you? They must have brainwashed you real good while you were their slave!" Raynare yelled at Akeno.
While her choice of words was harsh, they weren't necessarily wrong. I gripped the [Lightdagger] tighter and held it up to Millicas's throat. "Now I want you to answer honestly, Millicas," I said threateningly. "What is your favorite food?" My dagger touched his neck and left a small burn as he yelped in pain.
Akeno growled at me, but Raynare easily held the girl back. "What the hell does that have to do with anything? Millicas's favorite food is pizza!" Akeno shouted.
Sif and Asia were looking at me questioningly. Asia shifted uncomfortably and bit her lip. "You shouldn't hurt an innocent child…" she muttered. "Even if he is a devil."
"My favorite food is pizza! Akeno is right–aaarggh!" I burned his neck a bit more this time, and he shrieked. Everyone but Raynare was now looking at me like I was crazy for doing that to an 'innocent child.'
"I said don't lie. If you lie again, I will hurt you."
Millicas had tears in his eyes, and they were probably real, but that didn't mean I was letting the little monster go. There was a particular secret about noble devils that was kept strictly under wraps. Why were they so strong when they were so young? Other supernatural beings took hundreds of years to reach the power that young devils reached in only a few decades. Why was that? The answer was simple and terrifying at the same time. It was their food…
"Ok. I promised Mother and Father to never talk about it, but I'll tell! It's the glowing fruits! Those glowing fruits that they give me once a month. They're so delicious and they make me feel so good when I eat them!" Millicas shouted, and I pulled back my [Lightdagger] from his neck.
"Glowing fruits?" Asia asked with a puzzled look. "What are those? Do fruits glow in the underworld?" she asked. Akeno and Sif looked confused as well.
Raynare had a look of disgust. "Once a month! This kid is like 8 years old! That's almost 100 total! Absolutely vile and disgusting. And people call us Fallen Angels evil…"
I looked at Sif and Asia. "They're souls. Human souls. Young noble devils are fed them throughout their childhoods in order to grow stronger quickly," I said to the two girls. Sif immediately had a look of horror on her face while Asia gasped in shock.
