## Plot

### Volume 1

Vali is first mentioned in Volume 1, when Lavinia decides to give him and Asriel some of Tobio's delicious cooking, who asks about his identity. Damian describes him as a cheeky brat who lives in the same apartment building with them. He later makes his first appearance, asking Tobio, who is training Jin - his Ancient Gear - for a sparring match. He defeats Tobio with minimal difficulty, to Natsume's displeasure. Lavinia then appears, telling them it's time for breakfast, and embraces Vali, much to his embarrassment.

As they discuss over breakfast, they decide to investigate the house of Sae Tomoe in relation to the Utsusemi incident. Vali and Asriel decline to follow them, mentioning that the "Governor General" requested them not to do so. He is later shown at an abandoned factory where Natsume, Damian and Kouki are in trouble after they are ambushed at Sae's house by the Utsusemi Agency. He greets Natsume and stops Kazuhisa Doumon from escaping the location. As he attempts to attack him, he is interrupted by Kouki, who punches Kazuhisa instead. As Kouki collapses from his injury, Vali catches him and teleports him to the Grigori institute along with Kazuhisa and Byakusa, Kouki's Ancient Gear.

He then updates Natsume and Damian with the current situation and they head to the headquarters of the Utsusemi Agency together, where they rescue the victims of the "Heavenly Aloha incident" along with their parents and teleport them to the Grigori institute. Vali tells Natsume to go meet Tobio, who is confronting Hanezu Himejima. A short while later, Vali appears along with Azazel and returns a rampaging Tobio in his Overdrive state back to normal with the help of Azazel, Lavinia and Asriel.

### Volume 2

Two months later, Vali follows Damian, Kouki, Lavinia, Asriel and Sae to Tobio's room. Upon reaching their destination, Lavinia covers his eyes, telling him there's something going on that he can't see. After they all have breakfast, Vali goes with the rest of the team to Nephilim, where Vali, Lavinia and Asriel temporarily separate with them as they are not registered students there.

Half a month later, he has a sparring match against Tobio and Kouki, from which he emerges victorious with little difficulty. He later has another match against Tobio, which he wins. The following Saturday, he follows the rest of the team to a shopping district where he sees a black jacket he likes, expressing a desire to grow taller so it could fit him.

He is later shown with Baraqiel, interrupting the fight between Tobio, Damian and Kouki against Seiryuu Kushihashi and Andreas Hoffman. Suzaku Himejima also appears and asks for a meeting, where both parties forge an alliance. Vali watches on as Tobio, Kouki, Damian, Sae, and Natsume decide to rescue their classmates who are being pursued by the remnants of the Utsusemi Agency and the Wizards of Oz. As they head towards the location of the aforementioned classmates, Baraqiel warns them of the abilities of the Astra Team and Lavinia tells them about her past and her current objective. As the rest express their support for her, Kouki asks Vali if he will help Lavinia, to which he replies in the affirmative, albeit in a roundabout manner.

As they move closer to their destination, Sae raises an alarm, causing Baraqiel to investigate ahead alone. He finds Shigune Nanadare, one of the classmates, along with her Ancient Gear. As she warns them to escape, they are confronted by a strange stone statue. Immediately as Baraqiel warns them to close their eyes, it releases an intense light that is revealed to be capable of causing blindness. As the team study the surroundings, a man reveals himself and expresses his desire to make them blind. As some of the team engage the man and the statue, Shigune reveals that there is a second statue, with Vali reacting quickly to destroy it. After the man is forced to retreat, Shigune reveals that their remaining classmates are fighting alone in the village.
