She meets up with Vali as he gets a sports drink from a vending machine, noticing it's the kind he has for an important battle. Vali wasn't too keen on her being here and says that he doesn't need her support, but regardless she will still cheer for him. As Vali goes to prepare for the game, Lavinia wishes him the good luck. During the game, Grim Reapers had already began their attack, angered that they would interrupt Vali's match, Lavinia froze everyone of them in place, leaving them open for her allies to attack.
Lavinia was mentioned in True Volume 1, and she had taken Aika Kiryuu and Mil-Tan as her pupils after Le Fay and Kuroka refuse to teach them magic because they aren’t good enough to teach.
In True Volume 2, When Vali decided to move into a house in Kuoh Town, Lavinia wanted to help with the moving and called over Natsume, Le Fay and Tobio to assist. They've even previously brought over items from his childhood as well as bought a few new things.
She made a request to Issei's office for more help with the moving and became Ingvild Leviathan's first client, Ingvild summoned along with Issei as she could not safely teleport on her own yet. When Le Fay arrived, she thanked Lavinia for lending her a book on secret philosophy written by Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa along with notes from Mephisto. After the request was done, Vali handed Ingvild his old dragon plush doll as payment.
