The summer heat settled in, and Kuoh High School had ushered in summer vacation! Students had long decided on their summer destinations, some opting for beach trips, others planning getaways with girlfriends. But the entire Occult Research Club of Kuoh High School had their sights set on a very different kind of journey—a trip to Hell, the Underworld.

At a secret underground station in Kuoh Town, Blake, Rias, and the rest of the group made their way towards the platform. A strange train, adorned with sharp horns and bearing the large Gremory emblem, stood on the tracks ahead. The train's presence alone was enough to confirm that it belonged to the Gremory family.

"Is this the train to the Underworld? It's amazing!" Xenovia marveled, gazing at the train in awe. However, her expression shifted slightly, her brows knitting in concern. "But as a member of the church, I still feel a little strange about going to the Underworld."

"Yeah, Xenovia, I feel the same way," Aisa and Irina echoed.

"It's alright. The Underworld is not that different from the human world. There are special places, like the purple sky and the floating sky city. You'll get used to it once we arrive. As for the church's tales of rampaging monsters and wronged souls—those are nothing but lies," Rias quickly explained, trying to ease their concerns.

"Oh! I see. Now I'm really looking forward to it!" Asia's green eyes sparkled with excitement as she looked forward to experiencing it firsthand.

"Ah, Blake and Lia, you're not excited?" Asia teased, noticing how calm the siblings were.

"Of course, I'm looking forward to it. But it's not exactly normal to be so excited about going to the Underworld for a vacation," Blake rolled his eyes in response.

"I feel the same," Lia added, her voice clear and measured.

"Alright, everyone, let's get on the train," Rias smiled, ushering everyone onto the vehicle.

Once inside, Blake chose a seat by the window. Kanna, ever close to Blake, rested her head on his shoulder, looking content as he gently stroked her hair, causing her to squint with comfort.

"Miss, may I handle the formalities?" A white-bearded old man in a conductor's uniform appeared before them, looking very capable.

"It's Renaldo! Long time no see. You still look as energetic as ever," Rias greeted him warmly.

"Haha, Miss, you're as easy-going as always," the conductor, Renaldo, chuckled before turning his attention to Blake and the others. "Nice to meet you, Master Blake Silva, Miss Lia Silva, and all of Miss's companions and devils. I am Renaldo, the conductor of this Gremory special train. Please, do not hesitate to seek my assistance in the future."

Blake and the others returned the greetings, smiling at the old man's friendly demeanor.

After the brief exchange, Renaldo authenticated his identity and prepared to leave.

"You can relax for the ride. The carriages with beds and dining cars are all set up," Renaldo added, before heading off to attend to other duties.

About forty minutes into the journey, Renaldo's voice crackled over the intercom.

[This train is about to break through the dimensional wall.]

"Dimensional wall?" Asia, Xenovia, and Irina leaned out of the windows, their curiosity piqued. They saw mountains, water, and other familiar sights, their faces lighting up with surprise.

Blake, however, merely shrugged, unimpressed. To him, this was just another part of the world. Kanna was even more composed, having crossed dimensional walls many times with Torhu during their playtime.

"Is that the dimensional wall? And even though there are mountains, rivers, and cities in the distance, the sky is purple! The Underworld is as amazing as they say!" Asia exclaimed, her eyes wide with excitement.

The trio from the church looked thrilled by the sight, which made Blake and the others smile. The lively and cheerful atmosphere was quite refreshing.

[Approaching the main house of Gremory. Thank you for riding with us today.]

After over an hour of travel, the train finally arrived at the Gremory family's main residence.

"Wow, look at all the people..." Asia whispered, awestruck.

As they stepped off the platform, the entire street was filled with maids, soldiers, servants, and even musicians. Everyone was respectful and cheerful. The moment they saw Rias and her group, the festivities began.

Bang, bang, bang! Fireworks exploded in the sky, accompanied by a thunderous salute. Soldiers fired their guns into the air, and a band continued to play. In the sky, soldiers riding Asian dragons waved flags as the crowd cheered.

"Miss Rias, welcome back!" they shouted.

The grand welcome ceremony left Xenovia and Irina speechless, their mouths hanging open in astonishment. Asia, too, hid behind Blake, nervously clutching the corner of his clothes.

At that moment, a familiar silver-haired maid, Grayfia, approached them.

"Miss, welcome back. Master Blake, welcome to the Gremory family for vacation. We're glad you arrived safely. Please, all relatives, please get on the carriage, and we'll head to the house."

Under Grayfia's graceful direction, Blake, Rias, and the others boarded a luxurious carriage that would take them to the family home.

The journey to the castle was spectacular. The road was lined with vibrant flowers, grand fountains, and neatly arranged maids and butlers. The red carpet stretched out before them, leading up to the castle doors. The sheer luxury was breathtaking.

Inside, the castle was just as magnificent. A grand entrance, sparkling crystal chandeliers, and lavish decorations filled the space—each more opulent than anything the human world could offer.

As a pure-blooded devil family, the Gremorys were the nobility of the Underworld, with immense wealth and status. The trio from the church, however, was more accustomed to the simple life of the church, and the grandeur of this place was overwhelming for them.

"Miss, I'll guide everyone to their rooms now," Grayfia announced as they reached the castle's entrance.

"Of course, please," Rias and Blake nodded in agreement.

Grayfia led them to their rooms, while the housemaids and butlers busied themselves with their duties. Blake, however, raised an eyebrow, realizing a certain uncle had likely gone to greet Satan Sirzechs.

"Never mind," Blake thought, shaking off the distraction. He was content to focus on the current moment.
