In the midst of cherry blossoms dancing in the wind, Misaki opened the old diary and read the words of promise written there.

In the scene where the protagonist, the succubus, appeared, her tattered and dirty appearance, and her ragged attire, were in stark contrast to the final boss, the young vampire with a pretty face. This time, when he appeared, his appearance was not weakened in the slightest. He still looked like a well-dressed young gentleman with slicked-back hair, a powdered face, a tuxedo, white gloves, and alligator shoes.
Upon seeing the succubus, the young vampire, as expected, said with a confident tone, "It's really you."
His appearance, combined with his attitude and tone, which seemed to say, "Ahaha, it's really you. Everything is under my control. I am naturally superior, and you, a lowly servant, should kneel before me," made the succubus want to slap him.
So she put on a very surprised expression, "What the heck, it's actually you?!"
"… Ah, eh?" The young vampire was surprised by the succubus's unexpectedly surprised reaction. The atmosphere of a showdown between experts that he had just created was instantly ruined.
"That, that… seeing me, do you feel very surprised?" the young vampire couldn't help but ask.
"Of course," the succubus said matter-of-factly, "I thought it would be some powerful character. Like a Pit Fiend, a Balor, an Archangel, a dragon, or a legendary warrior. Fortunately, it's you. Seeing you, I feel much more confident."
"I'm not necessarily worse than those things you mentioned…" the young vampire looked very displeased, "And, and, didn't I tell you before? This gladiatorial competition was held for me. So it's only natural that I would be the final opponent!"
"Would I believe you just because you said so?" the succubus snorted, "Look at you, so weak, so weak, and still weak. You're just a weakling. The last time we met, I always thought of your words as hot air. In my mind, the one who could make it here should be a cunning and strong demon, not a noble pretty boy like you."
Saying this, the succubus ignored the young vampire's slightly red face and continued, "So, I didn't expect that what you said before was actually true. A pretty boy like you could actually reach the same level as an excellent demon like me. Isn't that surprising?"
At this point, the succubus nodded seriously and said earnestly, "It's worth encouraging and praising. You must have put in a lot of effort. I know, I know. Striving for your dreams. You made big claims in front of me before, so to make it all come true, you must have worked hard. You must have endured a lot of hardship, done some super intense training, begged your elders on your knees, and signed a tyrannical contract with the devils of the Nine Hells, right? Ah, ah, ah, really, there are not many young people like you nowadays."
At this point, the succubus looked ashamed, "I'm different. I can't endure hardship. These days, I've just been playing around. I'm really ashamed, ashamed."
"You, you—!" The young vampire thought for a long time but couldn't come up with an adjective to describe the succubus. However, he seized on a loophole in her words and loudly rebutted, "No— I saw it! You didn't play around at all; you've been fighting in the arena these days!"
"For a demon, the arena is entertainment," the succubus said matter-of-factly.
The young vampire stuttered, "You, you," unable to speak, and had to change the subject, "Have you not inquired about anyone these days? Have you not gathered any information? Has no one told you that what I said was true?!"
"If they said it, would I believe it?" the succubus snorted, "Who knows if they were plants you sent to set me up?"
"Send plants to set you up? Would I do that?!" the young vampire was flustered.
"Why not?" the succubus said matter-of-factly, "I'm a top seed. A top seed, you know? I'm a hot favorite in this gladiatorial competition. Very hot. A guy like you, who will do anything to achieve your goals, setting me up is completely normal."
"I didn't set you up at all! Not at all!!" The young vampire was so angry that his whole body trembled, "And I'm the top seed! The hot favorite. Much hotter than you!!"
"Hmph, if you didn't do anything wrong, why are you so anxious?" the succubus said with a look of disdain, "Listen, listen, listen, listen, does anyone call themselves a hot favorite? Have some shame, will you? Do you know how to be ashamed?"
"You just did—!" The young vampire wanted to continue rebutting. But halfway through, he stopped, took a deep breath, and calmed down.
"Ha, ha, ha." The young vampire chuckled and returned to his elegant and confident self, as if the person who had been mocked by the succubus was someone else.
"Very impressive psychological tactics, demon," the young vampire continued to act confidently, "But to truly defeat me, you'll have to get past my sword! Come on! Let's have a fair and decisive battle!"
"…" The succubus looked at the young vampire with an expression that said, "Look, this person is actually acting confidently."
The young vampire became awkward again. He lowered his raised sword and said to the succubus, "… Ah, that. At this moment, I think you should draw your sword and say, 'Alright! Let's decide this, I will not lose!' That would be better…"
"Is that so… hmm…" The succubus thought for a moment, then drew her sword, thought again, sheathed it, and drew it again, "Which of the two ways of drawing the sword looks cooler?"
"Hmm… about the same. But personally, I think the second one," the young vampire thought for a moment and answered.
"The second one… like this?"
Unconsciously, the succubus was already half a step away from the young vampire. After finishing her sentence, she drew her sword and, without a word, stabbed towards the young vampire's head—
