Alex dithered, pondering which card would be best for him to take. He counted twenty-two cards and had a hazy memory that those cards were the primary arcana that are seen in tarot card decks.
He went with the option that was a little to the left of the centre. When he turned it over, he saw a person who resembled a priest.
"That Would Be the Hierophant. It turns out that my assumption that you are the Lord of Lust was correct."
"Eh? What exactly did you say?" Alex was unaware of what she was saying.
"... Nothing. The Hierophant represents destined power and knowledge... Either in the future, or now." Alex rubbed his eyes, unsure of what to make of the divination. He figured that if magic and demons were real, so was fortune telling. The succubus then asked, "... Would you desire a more precise fate? The single card is purposely vague."
"Uh, I guess. Fate can be changed, after all."
"... Rare words from one so young. Very well, give me back the card."
Alex scrunched up his nose and pretended not to care while making a face. The past was exactly where it should have been. The divination of the present has shown to be accurate thus far. The prediction for the future appeared to be encouraging, but she was quite right: what kinds of things could he achieve? "Now, could you just tell me who the heck you are? At the very least, provide me with that much."
The woman maintained her silence, and then, as soon as she started to move, she brought the cards together and rearranged them in a flawless semicircle. Alex was able to comprehend what it was that she was directing him to do, and he selected a card. He turned it over and was quite taken aback by what he saw.
"... The Couple in Love That is the kind of person I am to you. It is a symbol that we need to decide for ourselves the path to choose in order to provide ourselves with direction. In a nutshell, the answer will not be presented to you; rather, it will be up to you to seek it out. And... Ahn!" At the conclusion of her speech, she trailed off, flushed, and let out an incredibly adorable shriek while letting out a squeak. Alex was confused by what she was saying, so he sat in his chair with his back leaned back and thought about what she had said. And at that point, yet another fascinating occurrence took place.
"Take a look at that! Now, as a beautiful succubus, what do you think you might be doing with this slender little piece?" Alex turned his ear in the direction of the voice as he cocked his head. Alex and the violet succubus were sitting at a table together when a group of six demons approached. Four of the demons in the group were incubi. "Come on, you pretty little lady! You're going to have a great time hanging out with us."
Alex was under the impression that turmoil was inevitable given the presence of these people. Alex had a strong suspicion that the violet succubus would not take them up on their offer, despite the fact that he could not say for certain whether or not she would. His suspicions were quickly proven correct.
The succubus pulled out a card and displayed it to the audience, "... The Adversary. No, I'm not going to give in to your inane babbling, and I won't fulfil your needs. I ask that you exit at this time."
"Hello there! Do I recall giving you a choice in the matter? If so, I must have forgotten. In the event that it is necessary, I will have Ezaeryll take care of your companion here." The leading incubus let out a menace as it opened its mouth. The individual known as Ezaeryll approached, poised to take decisive action.
'Isn't it there supposed to have a bodyguard protecting me? Not that I could use it," Alex reasoned to himself in his head.

"Ohhhhhhh dammit! My very first time guarding that adorable little Lord of Lust, and heeeeee vanishes the instant IIIIII even slightly take myyyy eyessss of him, Dea's going to murder meeeee! Where have you been hiding, my adorable little Lord of Lust?"

Alex was unaffected by the fact that these individuals were identical to Mandal and his cohorts in every manner, and he responded with, "Yea, I'd like to see you try."
pαпᵈα-noνɐ1·сoМ Rushed forward with his newly developed demonic speed as soon as the conclusion of his sentence was reached. He was grateful that he had adjusted to it, albeit only just barely, during the battle against the angels.
Even though he still needed to practise, he was experienced enough in combat to be able to handle thugs in both the human and the demon worlds.
He was able to handle them. He grabbed hold of the person's face who was identified as Ezaeryll and slammed it against the stone table. Instant KO.
They aren't as tough as they seem; if they had been more experienced fighters like that Avalandor guy, then they could have easily avoided his attacks or countered the ones he made against them.
On the other hand, the head incubus appeared to be just as unfazed as Alex. He heaved a sigh and gestured for two of his guys to take position so that they could dominate Alex.
"Really? Why did you have to be the one to bash poor Ezaeryll's head against that stone table? I'll see to it that he gets what's coming to him later for being so easily dominated... In any event, I can't let you go at this point and keep your life. My two closest friends here are very knowledgeable when it comes to fire magic, which is the Shirran's primary area of expertise."
