Steam-Locked Hearts

Albedo

(Why is the door locked from the outside? And why are all these women here?)

Kurumi

My, my. It seems we're all trapped together. How... convenient.

Rias

This was clearly planned. Someone wanted us all here together.

Akeno

(The lock has my seal on it. But why would I trap us all here... unless...)

Albedo

The lock isn't physical. It's... magical. And familiar.

Kurumi

Oh Albedo, you haven't figured it out? The spell signature is yours.

Rias

(Albedo's magic? But that would mean...)

Albedo

No... I didn't cast this spell. But it's responding to my mana. Someone's using my power against us.

Akeno

(Who knew the Overlord's guardian could be so easily manipulated? This will be fun to explain to Ainz-sama.)
