Five days had already passed since Trihexa was resurrectedâ.
I â Azazel, and Barakiel were currently together in the capital city of the Devilsâ side in the Maouâs territory5, Lilith. Within the conference room in the city which belonged to the Maou, a summit was being held (Devilsâ side, Fallen Angelsâ side), to discuss the response to Trihexa. Sirzechs did not attend because he had other urgent matters to attend to. The Governor of my side, Shemhazai, was issuing commands at the Grigori Institute. Five days ago, after Trihexa revived, it destroyed the main facilities of the Fallen Angelsâ Grigori Institute first, after which, it was transported to Heaven. It also devastated the First Heaven which acted as a frontline base, all the way up to the Sixth Heaven, the core area where the Seraphs resided. Those who were working at the main facilities of the Grigori, as well as the Angels who fought against Trihexa in Heaven had essentially been killed. The Cadres of my side â Sahariel and Penemue had both been severely injured, while their older subordinates had also died in battle. The damage which occurred in Heaven was even more serious. Three of the Seraphs had been seriously injured; Raphael had lost a leg while Uriel had lost an eye and an arm. Several of the Angels who had existed since ancient times had died. The final and uppermost Seventh Heaven was successfully defended, and the [System] which was left behind by the God of the Bible had been protected. âŚHowever, the sacrifices which were made for that were simply too great.
At that time, in the centre of the round table in the conference room, a video of that battle was played. The gigantic beast mercilessly sprayed out flames from its seven heads. The facilities of the Grigori, as well as the surrounding terrain were blown away in an instant. What happened in Heaven was an equally horrific and agonising sight. The bursts of fire that Trihexa spat out penetrated from the First Heaven up to the Third Heaven. The scene of Heaven was horribly tragic as it looked as though it had turned into a burning hell. Alongside it were the fake Sekiryuutei and mass-produced Evil Dragons, which caused even further damage. The leaders of this were the legendary Evil Dragons who were second to none, AĹži DahÄka and Apophis. The extent to which their attacks went was even greater than what Rizevim had done. âŚMany black feathers and white feathers had fallenâŚ. Even Michael was unable to take on Trihexa, and he had been defeated. That guy wasnât in this conference room because he was still being treated, while also repairing the damage that was done to Heaven. After the main facilities of the Grigori and Heaven had been successively destroyed, the Imperial Beast of the Apocalypse transported again. On the third day after Trihexa had revived, the place that it had set its eyes on wasâ.
ââŚThe Norse World was also enveloped in flamesâŚâ
Barakiel couldnât help shuddering as he looked at the video which was displayed in the centre of the round table. There were three levels in the Norse World; the lowest level contained the Realm of the Dead and the icy region of Niflheim, whereas the highest level where the gods lived was Asgard â the Valkyries were also there. Appearing in that place was a beast with seven heads and a body several hundred metres long â Trihexa. After transporting to the lowest level of the Norse World, it began its destruction there, and after a single day, everything had been destroyed. Today was the fifth day after its resurrection; Trihexa had finally reached the first level â the uppermost level. Trihexa usually flew in the air, and only descended to the ground when it fought. Speaking of its characteristics, it was like a human â or perhaps it was more appropriate to say that it was like a primate; it leaned forwards, it had four stout arms, and two legs which were even thicker than its arms. Although it didnât have any wings, it was able to fly in the air. Its body was covered with black fur, and things which were as hard as scales could be seen all over its body. A bright red colour resembling blood; it had these red protrusions throughout its body â they were similar to horns. Seven tails came out from its lower back, with each one being thick and long. They were also of different shapes. It possessed the features of a lion, dragon, and various other beasts. Everywhere that Trihexa and the Evil Dragons passed through became scorched earth, and the main buildings had been burnt to nothing but ashes. The Norse Gods, the souls of Valhalla6 and the Valkyries were currently in a desperate fight to stop the advance of Trihexaâs brigade. âŚBut, a single one the fierce and powerful fireballs that Trihexa ejected completely wiped out the beautiful scenery of the Norse World, while the warriors were vaporisedâŚ.
Drifting alongside Trihexa were two Evil Dragons â one of which was the [Diabolism Thousand Dragon]7 AĹži DahÄka. Standing on top of AĹži DahÄka was the [Eclipse Dragon]8 Apophis, in a human form. AĹži DahÄka had created a countless number of magic circles within the air (magic from various different mythologies). The myriad of magic circles encompassed a vast area and released huge amounts of flames, ice, water, lightning, and storms. All of this magic was directed towards the souls of Valhalla. Apophis raised a single hand in the air. Gathered in this hand was an extraordinary amount of aura. In response to this action, the sky became dark. The radiant light which poured down from the sky had actually been obscured by the power of that Evil Dragon. He then created a large dark ball in the sky, and even blocked out the sun, causing the ground to become a world of darkness. When he used that forbidden technique to block out the sun in the past, a tragedy would occur. Activating the forbidden technique which was engraved on his body, from that ball of darkness emerged [Primordial Water]9 â the flow of a large, dark river. It would engulf everything. Even a god-class being would be seriously injured if they were to be engulfed by it. In order to prevent Apophisâ forbidden technique from activating, the Valkyries that Rossweisse was a part of activated their own magic circles, and used techniques to hold it back. Rays of sunlight were able to return through the sphere of darkness, but were stopped again. The defensive battle in which the situation continuously shifted back and forth began. The Valkyries opposed it desperately, but a smile emerged on Apophisâ face, clearly showing that he was enjoying this tug of war. Compared to Rizevim, these two Evil Dragons, AĹži DahÄka and Apohis had even more power. The current situation had already far exceeded what happened during the attack on the Underworld by the Demonic Beasts10.
The factions which had peaceful relations with each other sent aid and combat forces to the mythologies which had been attackedâŚ. However, facing Trihexaâs brigade which could easily transport themselves anywhere regardless of the most powerful barriers in the world, every faction was so busy guarding against attacks and reinforcing their own territory that they were unable to move. Despite that, the Devils, Fallen Angels, and Heaven still sent over the combat support that they could. The anti-terrorist group [DxD] also went to the Norse World. After all, they had received a lot of care from that jisan Odin in the past. If they didnât show up now, there wouldnât be another chance for them to do so. Especially [DxD], they had been fighting all night these past three days. âŚIf the fighting time was lengthened, they wouldnât be able to support it either. Hopefully they could have some more time to restâŚbut it was very difficult at the moment. One of the Maous, Falbium Asmodeus said
âThese Evil Dragons have not completely destroyed any of the factions; they simply think that they can accomplish their task by destroying some of it. After that, they immediately head over to their next target for destruction. Their strategy is simply too unrefined. âŚTheyâre able to transport themselves without any signs of preparation, which should be part of AĹži DahÄkaâs forbidden technique. That is also rather difficult to deal with. Could it be that those fake Sekiryuutei can use Boost and Transfer, which allows them to enhance the forbidden technique? If that really is the caseâŚ. No matter the time or place, they would be able to invade regardless of any barrier. That would make the cooperation between various factions quite difficult, after all, each faction places the protection of its own faction above all else.â
Falbium shared everything that he had thought of with a quiet voice. Serafall said
âAre the Evil Dragon-kuns moving according to someoneâs directions? It looks like theyâre just rampaging around, but it gives off the impression that theyâre actually acting in accordance to some kind of plan. To some extent, it can be seen that theyâve been moving sequentiallyâŚâ
Choosing the main facilities of the Grigori to be first was because they wanted to destroy it as soon as possible. Compared to the defence of other factions, even if it had significantly more advanced technology, the level of combat strength was insufficient. The size of the facilities was small in comparison to Lilith. If the defence was broken through, it could be destroyed in an instant. After destroying the Fallen Angelsâ side in the Underworld, they would go to destroy the Devilsâ side that was also in the Underworld. âThat was what we originally thought; we never imagined that they would move to Heaven. It was truly unexpected. On the surface, it appeared as though they were just going on a rampage, but they actually had a plan of attack. Hearing this, Falbium spoke softly again.
âIndeed, Iâve already contacted the Greek mythology just in case. I asked them to monitor Hades. There were rumours that he was secretly in contact with the Evil Dragon Apophis, and it was also him who informed them of the shortcut when Rizevim attacked Heaven. If the situation is similar to when the Underworld was attacked, it wonât be good if he takes advantage of any loopholes. If Hades comes out again, the damage will be even greater, so itâs fortunate that we have help from the Greek mythology. Those who have been secretly associated with Rizevim are also being monitored. However, if the situation becomes chaotic, weâll just have to ask those allied mythologies and associated organisations to get rid of them, even if they are a god.â
It appeared as though Falbium had already made a pre-emptive strike. It was only natural for Hades, as well as the countless number of associations that Rizevim had when he invaded Heaven to be monitored. Even before that, Sirzechs and I had gone to visit his side along with two Longinus wielders. Another suspicious god, Indra â Ĺakra had previously provided support to those against us, so it was not difficult to sense his hostility. Aside from the first generation Sun Wukong of Team [DxD], various other strong people had been sent over. âŚWhat was this God of War planning? Supporting us from behind was the God of Destruction Shiva, but what exactly do you want? âŚWell whatever, weâll just accept his good intentions for now. âŚOr should we go back and think of our countermeasures against Trihexa? Anyway, every faction needed to strengthen their own defences. In order to prepare for a second attack, and strengthen the defences of the main remaining facilities, all important research data and results were being hidden deep underground. Really, among the facilities which were destroyed, my laboratory was included. There were also things which I hadnât finished researchingâŚ. It looks like that part about research on Sacred Gears will have to be delayed. But the most important thing that was lost were those outstanding subordinates⌠Damn it, even if I live for a longer time, I wonât be able to get used to this guilt or regret.
The capital of the Devilsâ side, Lilith, was starting to deploy the military and police in major cities; high-class Devils, as well as ultimate class Devils and their servants were also on standby. But that was also inadequate. The news of my facilities being destroyed had already spread throughout the Underworld. The general population of the Underworld was afraid of the unrest like the attack of the Demonic Beasts again. The Devils had started to prepare emergency shelters, but under these circumstances, everything was very confusing and there was unrest everywhere. The video on the round table showed citizens who were planning to take refuge outside the city thus causing traffic jams due to the sheer volume of vehicles; they were Devils who were nervous and untrusting of the shelters.
The video display cut over to show other scenes in which Devils were causing havoc as they took advantage of the confusion, while the local military went to supress the situation. âŚNo matter where, it was chaos. I was annoyed at the fact that I could only stay here and issue commands right now. If I knew that this would happen, with that legendary creature, I should haveâŚmade a contract with the King of Demonic Beasts Typhon11 so that I could prepare a new set of artificial Sacred Gear armour. âŚIt was a bit too early to retire from the frontlines. âAt that time, the video returned to the battle in the Norse World. There were new reinforcements again. Oh! From the Hindu mythology, the Ape God Hanuman12, and the God Ganesha13 descended from the sky with an immeasurable number of warriors! Even the Asuras, and the King of the Asuras, Varuna14 came along with his subordinates! Ever since their war against Indra, these Asuras had not been seen in the world! For them to actually appear under such circumstances, it was truly admirable! Amongst all the mythologies, the monsters of Hindu mythology were still incredible. After the gods entered the battle, the army of fake Sekiryuutei and Evil Dragons which were around Trihexa were attacked by the gods, and faded into particles of light. Despite that, a steady stream of mass-produced Evil Dragons still appeared all around Trihexa; it was truly a difficult situation. Rossweisse activated a technique to stop the mass-produced Evil Dragons, but, perhaps because there were too many Evil Dragons or they had already become immune to the effect of the technique, Rossweisseâs technique didnât have much of an effect. âŚHowever, the fact that the number of fake Sekiryuutei didnât increase was fortunate. While I was just thinking that it was fortunateâŚa change occurred in Trihexaâs dragon heads. What was it spitting out!? Lying on the ground was the dirt-covered object that it had spat out. âIt was actually an enormous egg! I had a bad feeling about itâŚ. All of the VIPs who were present were also thinking about the same thing, and our worst premonition was realised. The egg slowly cracked open, and from within it â a large volume of monsters encased in full red armour flew out! âŚâŚDamn it! We were completely speechlessâŚ! We simply could not understand the principle of how the dragonâs head of Trihexa was able to give birth to fake Sekiryuutei! âŚJust what kind of modifications did that bastard make!? That bastard, just how much malice did he have to leave behind to us before he was willing to restâŚ!
However, with the cooperation of the Norse Gods, as well as the Hindu Gods, there was already a significant improvement compared to when the war had just begun. With so many gods entering the war, Trihexa still had not suffered any significant damage, so I couldnât help feeling amazed by its power. This was the true power of the legendary Imperial Beast which was on par with Great Red as recorded in the ApocalypseâŚ! Even gods had to come forward to fightâŚ. The enemy was a beast beyond the normal, and there were also the innumerable number of Evil Dragons and fake Sekiryuutei on top of thatâŚ. It was a scene which basically looked like the battle of the ApocalypseâŚ! Such a scene had not been seen since the Three Factions were at war, no, this should be even worse than thatâ. At that time, Trihexaâs attacks suddenly stopped. A magic circle used for transportation appeared above its heads, and at the same time, its heads disappeared from the battlefield one by one. Finally, Trihexaâs enormous body completely disappeared from that location. Towards this unexpected occurrence, all of us who were in the conference room were taken aback. We then calmed down immediately, and sent units out to investigate where they had transported to. But, after a few minutes, there was still no news about their transportation. Rather, we had completely lost sight of themâŚ.
[Woooooooooooooooooooohhhh!]
Faced with the sudden disappearance which still confused us, the cheers of victory echoed out from the video stream. Indeed, it seemed the war in the Norse World had finally concluded.
âFrom the looks of things, the Norse World has been saved.â
Sirzechs said as he walked into the conference room. Once he had finished doing what he had to do, he finally sat down at his seat in the conference room. After watching us sigh in relief, Sirzechs made a wry smile and said
âAlthough we donât know what theyâre trying to doâŚin short, this battle can be considered to be a successful defence, which isnât bad.â
âWell said ââ
Compared to Serafallâs gleeful smile, Falbium suddenly made a sinister expression towards the Evil Dragons.
ââŚItâs because of the Holy Grail, right?â
âŚHe was really sharp. Really, I also agreed with his view. I was afraid that the Holy Grail that they were manipulating had some kind of mutation or change, or perhapsâŚthey had exceeded the time limit; that was what I thought. They could mass-produce Evil Dragons if they wanted, but it wasnât infinite. In order to attain the infinite, it was only possible for the complete Ophis of the past. However, the rest that was attained here was extremely precious. Between the various factions, we were able to obtain combat strength, and time to finish compiling intelligence, which was a rare opportunity. Sirzechs stood up again.
âNext is to convey this news to everyone in the Underworld.â
The Maou Lucifer said that he had to convey that to the uneasy and confused publicâ.
Part 2
In the broadcast room of the Maouâs territory, Lilith, Sirzechs and Serafall were currently making an urgent broadcast. I was watching them from the listening next to the broadcast room. Using all of the channels in the territory, the two Maous were reporting this matter to everyone in the Underworld. The filming began, and of the two Maous who were sitting at the table â Sirzechs was the first one to speak.
âEveryone in the Underworld, currently, the entirety of the Underworld also includes the Fallen Angelsâ territory; the world of Devils has been subjected to an unprecedented crisis.â
Sirzechsâ voice was very clear, and his tone was also calm. The Maou Lucifer recounted the events which had occurred to the public one by one. Rizevim was the culprit behind everything; he manipulated the Evil Dragons, revived the legendary Imperial Beast Trihexa, and right now, Trihexa was unleashing destruction upon the territories of various factionsâ. The video of the battle that only we in the top brass had just seen was then played â the facilities of the Grigori, Heaven, and the Norse World were suffering from Trihexaâs attacks.
âThe beast that you are seeing right now is the legendary Imperial Beast Trihexaââ
Seeing that even gods were participating in battle, the ordinary Devils would feel as though it was truly the end of the worldâŚ. The video then cut over show that the Norse World had been successfully defended, and presented the image of our side which was cheering due to victory. How would the Devils feel when seeing such a scene?
âThe ones shown fighting in this battle arenât just Devils. There are also the Fallen Angels and the Angels of Heaven who have formed an alliance with us, as well as strong support from other mythologies that have rushed over to help us one after the other. Our opposing force against Trihexa and the Evil Dragons has increased significantly. Although they have been temporarily repulsed, they will reappear soon, and continue their destruction. The scale of this has already tremendously exceeded the âDemonic Beast Riotâ which occurred several months ago. Nevertheless, to everyone in the Underworld, please stay calm, there is no need to panic. That is because we have the star of hope.â
The next image which was shown was the talented youths. The Chichiryuutei Ise, Switch Princess Rias, the next head of the House of Bael Sairaorg, Heavenâs Joker Dulio, and the others. The citizens of the Underworld were all familiar with the people who appeared there one by one.
ââThatâs right, this is the anti-terrorist group [DxD]. Right now, in order to protect the world of us Devils, as well as the citizens of the world, and in order to protect the worlds of other mythologies, these brave warriors who make me proud are now fighting fiercely with their lives on the line.â
Serafall, who was on the side also appeared in front of the camera and smiled towards it.
âThatâs right! Everyone! I will also be going to the frontlines, so thereâs no need to worry!â
Sirzechs couldnât help showing a slight smile as he looked at Serafall, and then continued to elaborate.
âWe will definitely protect everyone in the Underworld. Even if I have to bet my life on it, I swear that I will protect it even if it costs me my life.â
Sirzechsâ words were very firm. âŚSeeing the figures of Ise and the others who were just shown, how would ordinary Devils feel? At least compared to having a suspicious person like me on TV, it would give the people more peace of mind if Sirzechs personally said that. The broadcast of Sirzechs and Serafall then continued onto the topic of the future, and also the injustices of the Rating Games. For dozens of minutes afterwards, they continuously made such announcements to the citizensâ.
After the broadcast ended, Sirzechs and Serafall got up from their seats and left. I said to Serafall
âYouâre still the same even at a time like this, Serafall.â
Serafall made her usual peace pose with two fingers â and then she became even bolder.
âI should act this way even more during a time like this. âWell, I also have to go to the frontlines.â
Sirzechs smiled lightly.
âYou and your servants always cause trouble.â
âReally, you donât need to say such unfriendly things. Are we really good friends who have come together? Moreover, I only come out at these times, so I really get the feeling that âIâm a Maouâ.â
I also said to Sirzechs
âThe Cadres of my side will also be sent here to you. The Seraphim of Heaven will also come here. Ah, itâs almost as if Armageddon15 has arrived early.â
Serafall asked Sirzechs
âWhat about you Sirzechs-chan?â
The intention behind this question was whether the Maou Lucifer would also be fighting. Sirzechsâ expression became stern, and he then said
ââI will go. Let me do something that a âMaouâ should do as well. âŚBut before that, I have some things to deal with.â
Sirzechs would also be heading outâ. I was afraid that I would be able to see his true form soon. That was because it would be a long and arduous battle. After Serafall confirmed his reply, she said
âWell, Iâll be going first then!â
And left early to go off somewhere. That left me and Sirzechs. Sirzechs asked me softly
ââThe plan from before, it can be started at any time, right?â
That matter was centred around our Three FactionsâŚand a certain âstrategyâ.
âThatâs right, Iâve gotten the agreement of the other gods. The next step waits on the decision of you Maous. Even if you guys say no, itâll just be us who will implement it at that time.â
If that âstrategyâ was really implementedâŚit would be both difficult, and cruel. In fact, I did not want to involve Sirzechs and Michael in it. However, Sirzechs smiled at me
âWhen it all comes down to this, you could say that we all share the same fate, right?â
ââŚActually, is this really for the best? Say, Sirzechs. You werenât originally Lucifer. âŚYour real name is âSirzechs Gremoryâ. Iâm not saying this with any bad intentions, itâs just thatââ
Do you need to bear the name of âLuciferâ to such an extent? I always thought that. Sirzechs was still quite young as a Devil, he was a young man who hadnât even lived a thousand years yet. However, he was going to put his own life at stake for the Underworld. âŚHe was not born into the family of Lucifer. He was just the extraordinarily strong young master of an aristocratic family. Sirzechs looked up at the ceiling, and he narrowed his eyes slightly.
âI understand what youâre saying. Itâs already been half a year since Iâve been able to talk to you, AzazelâŚso I also understand. Fallen Angels can be unexpectedly gentle.â
Donât say that. Otherwise, at that time, your determination will dullâŚ. Sirzechs continued
âI worry about what will happen afterwards. Azazel, we current Maous finally passed the proposal for the next plan yesterday.â
I see, they had even agreed on that. Itâs really only at times like these that youâll think and act seriously, you guysâŚ.
âLeaving Belphegor and Mammon aside, a new problem has been placed before us. That is time, it is necessary to have time for the citizens to accept it.â
âBut, there isnât anyone else is there?â
All of a sudden, Sirzechs revealed a lonely expression.
âThe only pity isâŚI wonât be able to see it once the plan is implemented. I originally thought that I had to see it for myself, their matchââ
I couldnât help scratching the back of my head; you really can say it, Sirzechs.
âYou definitely shouldnât say that. Youâve also shaken my mind a bit. âŚBut letâs leave it at that, this alternative work can be considered complete, right?â
âYeah, heâll stay behind.â
âI see, I understand so we canât blame him for not being here, right? Then, there are no problems to implement that plan.â
Regarding the next matter, Sirzechs and I smiled at each other, and at that time, someone appeared before us. It was a blonde-haired girl. Her two eyes were a crimson colour like blood; she was a vampire. I recognised this vampire girl. That was because she was the girl that I met before the incident in Vampireâs country. Moreover, I was also looking forward to this girlâs appearance.
âYo, Elmenhilde.â
Hearing my voice, Elmenhilde Karnstein also greeted us. Indeed, it was that vampire who was sent by the Karnstein family of the Carmilla faction, Elmenhilde. That lofty, high-class blonde-haired vampire girl. But compared to her arrogant attitude from before, she had a more vague atmosphere now. The Carmilla country had suffered serious damage, and was caught in the difficulties of having to rebuild from scratch. Also, the nobles of the Carmilla faction no longer tried to cover up the crisis that the country was in, and they began to accept help from the rest of the world.
This young girl was sent to other places as a vanguard, but I heard that it was also a rather difficult job. When Ise happened to meet her at that timeâŚI saw her become completely astonished. Elmenhilde turned to look at Sirzechs; she intended to start the conversation in here. I waved my hands and said
âThereâs no problem.â
And allowed her to start speaking. She handed me a memory stick. âŚThey did indeed have it. Elmenhilde said
âAs you said Former Governor-dono, this is the research data that Marius Tepes had hidden.â
Thatâs right, I was looking for that; the information about the Holy Grail that even Rizevim did not know about. As the Prince of Vampires, Marius Tepes had been investigating Valerieâs Holy Grail. I always had doubts about it. Was all of the information that Marius had on the Holy Grail really taken away by Rizevim? Marius was indeed the type of person who would be manipulated and deceived by Rizevim, but as a pure-blooded vampire, and as a vampire who had inherited the royal bloodline, would he really commit such a stupid deed to allow other races to take away all of his research? I thought that he would have hidden at least one or two pieces of information about the core of the Holy Grail. Thus, I sent investigators through my own network to investigate it together with the Carmilla faction there. Everything was investigated, from the Tepesâ Palace to the all of the personal belongings of Marius. Elmenhilde said
âMarius Tepesâ ingredients â one of the humans who had their blood sucked by vampires had previously undisclosed information about the Holy Grail. âŚHe had a technique engraved on his body.â
So thatâs how it was, Marius had actually engraved the hidden information and techniques onto the body of a human.
âBefore Rizevim Livan Lucifer was received in my country, it seems like he freed that person, and exiled him to live abroad. We also expended a lot of effort to find him.â
âElmenhilde added.
Oh, I didnât expect that Marius would actually have such elaborate preparations. That bastard Marius, he had actually sent the hidden information abroad before Rizevim even arrived. âŚThatâs why it could never be found. I looked at the memory stick in my hand as I thanked Elmenhilde
âThanks for your effort, youâve been a great help.â
âDo you also want to see Ise while youâre here, heâs currently receiving treatment in the hospital hereâŚâ
I teased Elmenhilde, and that girlâs face instantly became bright red.
âW-W-Why did the Sekiryuuteiâs name come up here!? I, h-heâs got nothing to do with me!â
Hoho, that was a good reaction. I heard that a lot of things happened when she met Ise again; I just said that, but it actually hit the bullseye! Really, that guy Ise, heâd very naturally made a girl fall for him again. That kid really only gets non-human girls, and girls with strange personalities to like him. Elmenhilde recomposed herself, and said farewell to us
âIâll be returning now.â
And then left from there. Well, Iâll immediately try and understand this new information about the Holy Grail now. Also, Slash Dog â Tobio had brought back something from Agreas that I wanted to investigate if I had time. I had already secretly asked Tobio to investigate it firstâŚas expected, it actually turned out to be that thing. Incidentally, the Evil Dragons had already been swept clean, and Agreas had been recovered. It was then returned to its original place â and it was given to the people in the Agaresâ territory to begin the investigation. Sirzechs said to me
âWell, Iâm going to talk with my peerage next.â
âWell, Iâm going to go see those kids again.â
Ise had not awoken since the fight against Rizevim. I was also quite concerned. It was rather strange that there werenât any signs of him awakening even though he should soon. The members of [DxD] who had gone to the Norse World were also very concerned about Iseâs situation, and would also be going to the hospital. âŚAfter I sighed, I said to Sirzechs
âIt appears as though weâll be in contact for a long time.â
âIf itâs you, Azazel, I wonât feel bored.â
âAlthough Iâll still be following a slightly annoying Angel.â
After we both laughed, we left that place. I looked at the memory stick as I walked down the stairs, and I couldnât stop the corner of my mouth from making a smile. Look, Livan. You sure gave us a lot of awful things to deal with. We met in the Vampireâs country, and after that, Agreas was taken, and Heaven was attacked. But, always being on the road that youâve set doesnât suit my style. Nor is it what we do. Iâll stop it for you to see this time. Even at the expense of my lifeâ.
