Naruto noticed that basically everyone in sight was looking to her frequently, no doubt waiting for her to become available.

Naruto's thoughts were cut off by Rias tugging on his arms and informing him, "My father wanted to talk to you, Naruto-kun."

"What?" Naruto asked owlishly. Pointing to himself, he questioned, "Why would he want to talk to me?"

"Why wouldn't he? You're part of my peerage, but he hasn't been introduced to you yet. He'll probably use this party to talk to Asia and Raynare as well.

Not to mention, you were without a doubt the MVP of the match. You probably caught the attention of every devil in this room with your performance," Rias explained matter-of-factly.

Couldn't really argue with that. So Naruto just shrugged and told Rias, "Lead the way."

"Got it. Last time I saw him, he was this way," Rias claimed as she started moving through the throng of people. After a minute of searching, she seemed to spot her target. Changing direction slightly, she called out, "Otou-sama."

"Ah, Rias," a man said in response.

As Rias led Naruto, he examined the man who appeared to be Rias' father. The resemblance was definitely there.

He had the same vibrant crimson hair as Rias, and his eyes were a similar blue color. He looked like a man in his late 20's.

His hair was long, and he had a small beard on his chin. He was dressed in a predominantly white suit, that had golden highlights and a black undershirt.

He wasn't alone either. He was standing with two others. A man and a woman. The man had a clear resemblance to Riser, although his features were overall kinder looking.

Looking to be middle-aged, he was dressed in a red and gold suit. The woman looked like an older version of Ravel.

Similar facial structure, blonde hair, and blue eyes. The only difference was that instead of Ravel's drill-curl hairstyle, this woman had her hair done up in an elegant looking bun.

Her hair had a web of string running through it that had diamonds and pearls interspaced. That piece alone was no doubt prohibitively expensive. Their figures were also different.

This lady was a bit taller than the petite Ravel, and her figure was curvier. She was wearing a red evening gown.

The resemblance of the two towards the two Phenex members Naruto had met made it clear who they were.

A though that Rias reinforced by bowing slightly and saying, "Lord Phenex. Lady Phenex. I apologize if I've interrupted."

"Do not worry, Rias-san. We were talking of nothing of import," Lord Phenex claimed with a nonchalant wave of his hand. Turning to look at Naruto, he added, "You actually brought someone we've been hoping to talk to."

Feeling Rias elbow him in the side and send him a commanding gaze, Naruto reluctantly bowed and said politely, "Hello, sirs and madam. My name is Uzumaki Naruto. Nice to meet you."

"Naruto-kun, these two are the Lord and Lady of the Phenex Clan," Rias informed him needlessly.

"And I happen to be the father of this young girl, who seems to have disregarded her own parent," Lord Gremory pitched in, giving an amused look in Rias' direction.

Rias looked somewhat chastised, but Naruto could clearly see she was uncomfortable. The reason was obvious. She was standing near the parents of the person she refused to marry.

Something Lord Phenex disregarded in favor of examining Naruto. He finally commented, "So you are the one that defeated my son and daughter so completely."

Rias replied before Naruto could by bowing and saying in a rush, "I'm sorry, Lord Phenex. I know I disrespected your clan by my actions, but-"

"Do not worry, Rias-san," Lord Phenex immediately claimed easily. "We long knew you weren't exactly pleased with the engagement. We shall not blame you for acting on that. We accepted the idea of a Rating Game to decide it, and we shall abide by it. No hard feelings."

"If you knew Rias-chan didn't want to marry Riser, than why did you continue the engagement?" Naruto asked bluntly. Rias immediately elbowed his side, but he didn't care.

Lord Phenex gave a wry smile as he answered, "I'd say it was our greed as devils acting up. Both Lord Gremory and I have a pure-blood grandchild by our eldest children. Having achieved that, we naturally desired more. Our greed blinded us."

"Does every devil use some inherent selfishness of devils as an excuse to do what they want?" Naruto questioned frankly.

"Cause I still say I haven't felt diddly squat since-" Rias finally managed to snap out of her shock and cover his mouth before he could continue.

Blushing in embarrassment at her servant's words, Rias turned to the surprised Lord Phenex and claimed, "I'm sorry, Lord Phenex. My servant is kind of thoughtless. Please accept my-"

She was now cut off by Lord Phenex bursting out in laughter, quickly being joined by Lord Gremory. The two actually threw their arms around each other as they continued laughing. Lady Phenex looked slightly embarrassed by their behavior.

Lord Phenex quickly exclaimed happily, "Man, it's been so long since I've been called out like that. Especially by a low-class devil."

"Seems we've turned into the old geezers we used to criticize. Using the 'nature of devils' to justify doing whatever we want," Lord Gremory added. "We're getting old, Rihal. Just a few more decades and we'll be retiring. Maybe it is time."

"I think so too, Rouge. The next generation has grown up well while we've apparently turned into our parents," Lord Phenex admitted.

Naruto and Rias just looked at the two laughing devils in confusion and bewilderment. Taking pity on them Lady Phenex explained, "You might see it much nowadays, but those two were among the first generation to turn against the old ways of the original Maou. You'd be surprised by how much trouble they got into when teens for saying very similar things to their parents."

"But I've met Obaa-sama and Ojii-sama. They don't seem to follow the old ways," Rias claimed in confusion.
