Chapter 74 - True Peace And Gabriel's New Pet.
Kurayami, Esdeath, Lavinia, Akeno, Raynare, and Ophis all went to go meet Azazel and The Abyss Dogs. They first went out to a big courtyard where he brought out Tyrant. Kurayami looked up at his beloved pet. "Hey, Tyrant. Care to give us a lift."
Tyrant looked down at Kurayami and nodded. "My, lord. You do not need to ask, I am your mount and partner. My loyalty is yours." Kurayami patted the dragon on the neck and he jumped on his back. The girls also got on Tyrant he spread his huge wings and took off.
Ophis was sitting on Tyrant's head and she was expressionless, but she pointed forward. "Faster.." Who was he to deny her and he began to move even faster towards Azazel and the Abyss Dogs.
The people in the city recognized Tyrant, but it did not make him any less scary. He was a literal dragon and was huge. When Azazel and his guards saw that dragon they all recognized it on site. Clarrise still wanted one of her own as she admired the legends of the dragons she had learned over in Grigori.
Knowing that Kurayami had two dragons made her want her own. Jack looked around. "The boss is coming, remove your helms."
The whole team removed their helmets showing their faces and held them under their arms. Serafall looked at all of them and she saw they were all very young. The oldest was Jack who looked like he was 22 and his hair was black and his face was sharp.
He looked like his father Ares. Clarise had a rough face and you could see the resemblance to Jack. James had softer features and looked handsome. Jaime looked Mexican and had a buzz cut.
Jannice was a young woman about 17 and her face was gorgeous. Her eyes were light silver and yet very sharp. When Tyrant landed and Kurayami and the girls jumped off he looked back. "Thank you, Tyrant." The dragon shook his head as he did not mind. He looked at his team and he was happy with their progress.
"Clarise, Jack, Jaime, Jannice, Jack. It is good to see you guys. Last I saw you guys it was over 2 years for me but was 6 months for you. I hope you were not slacking or I got a whole training from hell ready for you."
They shivered, but Jack all smiled. "We definitely did not slack while you were away. Father and Azrael would not let us slack." Clarise shuddered as if she was still a normal demigod she felt she would have died ten times over. Jaime saluted him.
"Muy bueno verte jefe. Te agradezco por darnos esta oportunid que mi perro paddre no lo haría."
(Good to see you boss, I thank you for giving us this chance that my bitch of a dad never did. He talks Spanish when he is happy and so do I.)
Kurayami shook his head. "Ni lo digas Jaime, todo seat bien." (Don't even say it, all is good.)
James sighed. "Our parents are all a bunch of dead beats. We don't need them, except for lord Ares. He is the only god who while forced to is taking time to train us." Clarise nodded.
"He may still be a god, but I feel he has mellowed out." Kurayami broke out laughing and nodded. "Old Ares really has become tamer them when I met him. You think it is because he fears me and Azrael?"
Raynare nodded. "It definitely has to do with that who would not fear the Angel of Death and The Angel of the Abyss." Kurayami looked over and he repeated that name in his head. He liked the ring of it and he needed a title for himself. That fit the bill.
"You know I liked the ring of that. That is my new title. The Angel of the Abyss. What do you think Shin?" The giant dog barked in agreement as he liked it. Azazel was being ignored and he coughed a few times and Kurayami looked over. Kurayami sighed as if he saw a kid he did not like.
"Oh, your here. Hi Azazel. Have you taken the blood crystals I gave you?" Azazel flinched and he looked away and seeing that Kurayami's lips twitched in annoyance. This was not the first time he made some excuse to get out of it
"You know, I felt they were a waste to use on me so I donated them as it is better to use them on Koga. Poor guy still has brain damage and using that could fix him right up."
Kurayami shook his head at Azazel's laziness. Azazel didn't want to be stronger, because it would mean he would have to work more. The stronger you are the more jobs you get. If he became a 7 winged fallen his workload would be crazy in case of war. He just wanted to stay in his lab and work on making better and stronger sacred gears.
Esdeath crossed her arms and shook her head. "So, much for the Governor-General, you are. Azrael or Kurayami would be better than you. They are strong, not lazy and responsible." Raynare nodded a few times.
"You are a geek Azazel. While your sacred gear research is important, you need to take your job more seriously. It gives Grigori a bad image when our own leader is lazy. Poor Shemazai has to deal with you when he should be relaxing with his wives."
Akeno's nodded a few times and yet her eyes looked at Kurayami. She felt he would be the best person to be the new Governor-General. She hugged his arm and looked up at him and imagined him being the leader and seeing people cower at his name. Her face got bright red imagining that.
"That is a good idea, brother you are the trump card of Grigori. It means you need a cool official title that everyone fears. Which one are you going with, Trump Card of Grigori, or Angel Of the Abyss? You named your team the Abyss Dogs after Shin are you keeping with the abyss theme. " They all looked at Shin was the size of a medium-sized black bear and he raised his head in pride as the team was named after him.
Clarisse nodded a few times and she felt pride in being part of this team.
."It is a cool team name. I can't wait to have an actual mission where we can let loose." The whole team nodded as they had been sent on a few missions, but none of them were really any dangerous, or important as no wars were happening. Serafall felt this was important, so she just stayed aside as this was about Grigori.
Azazel's eyes shined and he looked at Kurayami. "You want to lead Grigori. I would be better as a scientist and your name will give Grigori new status as an organization led by a being in the top ten. You can leave most menial tasks to Shehameazai and just deal with the hard stuff."
Kurayami thought about it and while he was thinking he and everyone were already on Tyrant who flew them back to the castle.
"Azazel, how about this. I will become Governor-General, but you have to begin to train and take the blood crystals. On top of that wait until I am 20 and I will take over for you." Azazel sighed.
'Fine I will do it You are currently 17 meaning I just got to wait about 3 years and I have lived way longer, so whatever. Akeno was cheering in her head as she was one step closer to seeing people cower in fear of her brother.
When they reached the castle Kurayami snapped his fingers. "Look sharp, Abyss Dogs." The Abyss Dog put on their helmets and their aura went from being relaxed to being serious.
It took a lot of training to get that done and it showed how good their training was. Kurayami nodded a few times as he was happy with their progress. Kurayami looked at his girls.
"Girls, me, Azazel, and the Abyss Dogs will be going to an official meeting now with the devil kings. You want to come. You are welcome."
Raynare shook her head. "Nah, politics don't interest me. You and Azazel are better at that than me. Consider this training for when you become Governor-General."
Esdeath also didn't want to go. "Just point me where you want me to fight, sitting down at a meeting is not for me, but if need be just call me and I will go with you."
Lavinia to be honest was an airhead and her brain would probably melt if she tried to be a politician. She shook her head and held her forehead.
"I don't think I would do any good. I feel like my brain would short circuit. " Ophis could sit through anything, but that didn't mean she wanted to. She shook her head.
"I will stay in the room." Akeno also did not want to be a part of that meeting. "I will see you when you are done, big brother." She giggled as she was going to prepare a surprise for him when he was done with eh rest of the girls.
The girls all decided to go back to his room which was one of the biggest and he sighed as he may regret his choice to be Governor-General. Azazel patted him on the shoulder.
"Now you see why I want to retire. No one wants to go through politics and I have dealt with this for millennia. Now, it is your turn, but even Serafall is the same." She sighed but nodded.
"It is such a drag to be the leader. We all need our hobbies to relax. Sirzechs is a siscon and spoils his sister, but that ruined her engagement. Falbium is lazy and likes to sleep. Ajuka likes to analyze things, and me. Well, you know my hobby, being a magical girl. Kurayami likes to collect beasts and you Azazel like Sacred Gears."
Azazel nodded as he watched her show once out of curiosity. Kurayami got a thoughtful look on his face when he heard Azazel's next question.
"Why is that the stronger a being gets the more eccentric they get?" Kurayami, Serafall, Azazel, and the Abyss Dogs all went towards the meeting and Kurayami gave his answer.
"Maybe, it is because the stronger you get the less you care for world matters, and your hobbies matter more." Azazel and Serafall looked at each other and nodded. The Abyss Dogs were not saying a thing as they learned that by being quiet they were scarier. It also gave them a more disciplined look.
When they got to the meeting room once again Ajuka, Sirzechs and Flabium were waiting as they had already learned that Azazel was here. Serafall looked at Kurayami and went to sit next to the other satans as she had to stop being a friend and act like a leader of the devils.
Azrael entered the room and when they saw him the Abyss Dogs nearly broke character as they will always fear him. Azrael, Azazel, and Kurayami sat in front of the four satans while the Abyss Dogs stood behind them. Behind the devil kings were Souji, Grayfia, and Beowulf.
Azazel pulled out a contract and laid it on the table. "Well, let's start the business. We at Grigori are now the strongest of the Three factions as we have 6 Loginous, two Super Fallen Angels, on top of that, we have an allaicne with the Greek gods and the Shinto gods. If we wanted we could wage war and take over, but as I said, we prefer peace."
Sirzechs sighed as they know confirmed that Grifori had the most Loginous of any of the factions. The devils had one, the church, and have had one as well. While Grigori had 6. How unfair is that." Ajuka looked at the contract and he looked at every word a few times and he was surprised there was no scam.
"Azazel, this is not only a peace treaty but a request for an alliance. To have cooperation with devils and as Serafall is marrying Kurayami we are on the way for peace. We had wanted Rias Gremory as she was related to the devil king, but she was just too weak." Sirzechs felt that and his face was in pain.
He maybe should not spoil her so much, but she was too cute not to. He couldn't just stop, but soon he would have no choice. Falbium nodded.
"Well the offer is fine, but would Michael agree to this. They might see this as a way to take over heaven with a united front."
Kurayami shook his head and he activated a magic circle in the air and the devil kings looked at it. Suddenly a big screen opened up and showed Gabriel with a few tiger cubs jumping on a huge black bear. She was hugging the huge black bear, and dwarfed her and had its face totally battle-scarred.
Its eyes were red as hellfire, and its body was full of scars from all the battles it had gone through. Yet, it looked so peaceful with Gabriel. Serafall knew he was friends with Gabriel, but that was a speed dial magic circle.
He really was friends with her, but the devil kings could see that bear was a rare Asura Bear. Very deadly and their rage was uncontrollable, but she made it look like a teddy bear.
Kurayami's eyes dilated as she did not tell him she got a new pet. He got totally serious as this was more important than anything to him. He rested his chin on his hands.
"Gabriel, I thought we were friends. How could you not tell me about that ball of fluff?" She looked over and waved happily as she had not talked to him since he vanished.
"Kurayami, I missed you. How is Castiel, is he eating, how big is he? Anyway, this is Ragnarock. I wanted to go with an angelic name, but he hated them all. Big brother said he found him fighting off a big group of poachers and he saved him."
He explained what was happening and how they were looking to get peace to the three factions and that the devils wanted to include Heaven so true peace could be achieved. The more she heard the more she liked how it sounded. Her best friend was a fallen angel and she never liked war. This way no more had to die in a meaningless war.
She nodded. "I will sign on his behalf." Sirzechs blinked a few times.
"Lady Gabriel, shouldn't you get the other seraphs involved?" She shook her head as if it was not a big deal.
"Who cares, I will just tell big brother Michael after this. He will agree to peace easily. Should I go over right now, I can just teleport if my friend Kurayami helps me. I will even bring Ragnarcok with me."
Kurayami and Azrael looked at each other and nodded. The giant bear shrunk down into a cub and both Azrael and Kurayami had her aura memorized and with her help, a mixed magic circle appeared on the floor. It was pitch black, and gold, but in the center was the emblem of a dog with a sword in its mouth.
She appeared in the circle and Ajuke looked right at the little bear. That was not just any Asura Bear, it was a very strong one. She rushed to him and gave Kurayami and tight hug. He smiled as she was like a pure little sister he didn't have. Akeno did not count as their relationship was anything, but pure.
"Hi, Gabriel. I take this fluff ball is Ragnarock."
Serafall looked at Gabriel like she was her greatest rival, but not know. Gabriel was not doing a thing, but they all felt their hearts were more happy and calm being around her. They realized why she could tame an Asura Bear easily was because she was just a good person.
Azazel was the only one who was going to joke about her marrying him, but before he got a chance Azrael grabbed the back of his head and smashed his face into the desk. It even smashed the desk in, and Azazel was out cold. The Abyss Dogs almost broke out laughing as Azazel still did not learn.
When you are as innocent as Gabriel even Azrael and Kurayami will protect that innocence; She was too pure to allow Azazel to perv on her. She looked at that and she fronwed. "Azrael, why did you do that? He did't do anything." Azrae smiled.
"He was going to say some inpure things." She squinted her eyes and poked Azazel who was out cold. She sat down while Ragnarock was in Kurayami's hands It was funny that Kurayami could go from a serious, terrifying being to a happy pet-loving guy, but that was his hobby.
Gabriel smiled and looked at the contract and it was a magic one, so she added that Heaven also agreed to the treaty. She coughed to get attention to her and smiles.
"Well, as I am Gabriel one of the Great seraphs of Heaven I agree to peace with Grigori and the devils. I never hated either and my best friend is a fallen angel. Michael himself always wanted peace, but none of three factions could be the first to go. Kurayami just did't care."
Kurayami shrugged. "If their is peace I can spend it training my pets and spending it with my friends and wives. I may love battle, but it does not mean I need a war." Serafall nodded.
"We are the same. Devils are a endagnged species and another war will probably result in us going extinct. We do not want that, so peace is the way for us to prosper." The other three satan all nodded as well.
Kurayami and Azrael sighed the treaty, the devil kings and so did Gabriel. Michael will just have to come another time cause as she beat him to it. The meeting went on for another 3 hours and they got a few of the details of this peace treaty. Now they just had to give the news and being dealing with each other.
The most important was that Serafall and Kurayami would have to get married very soon as a political move. They would have to invite many clans and the Great King faction will also loose some influcine as the Satan faction were the ones who will bring peace to the Underworld.
