Chapter 24: Old friend
"Yan, all of this happened thanks to you, in case Serafall-sama didn't have the drink, I can't even imagine what kind of future we would look forward to", Yasaka bowed towards the boy and all the youkai, except Koneko, repeated the act, "In my gratitude, from my people and my daughter, I offer Kunou's hand in engagement, she agrees with this and in joining his peerage".
Kunou raised her head and walked over to Yan and knelt in seiza touching his head on the floor while saying, "I hope I can count on you from now on". In supernatural society having multiple partners is common practice, especially nowadays when the supernatural is gradually losing its power, whether due to the advancement of science, the disbelief of humans, or the side effect of past conflicts, requiring an increase in their numbers, especially among angels and devils, but angels have great difficulty in procreating without running the risk of falling, unlike other beings.
Logically, I am in favor of polygamy, Serafall, Sona, Chloe and Ravel, they are my women and I have already had everyone's consent to have a harem and now I received a marriage proposal, unlike the others, I have no connection with the little girl ahead, so the first answer that comes to mind is denial, but multiple factors prevent me from that, first this marriage is the materialization of the peace agreement between devils and youkai, so the refusal would be the same as denying peace and secondly what man in his right mind would deny a beautiful fox who is more beautiful than his mother, my opinion, wanting to enter his harem? There may be some, but not me.
"I hope we are all happy together! Okay? ", Yan said and turned his head back and received the nod from Chloe and Koneko, unaware of the kitten's actions, turning his attention to Kunou, he extended his right hand to help her up, both having a smile on his face, the crowd of applause from the spectators rises.
The rest of the festival proceeded normally, sampling typical foods and observing dance performances and other talents, Kunou and Yasaka, both wearing red floral yukata with golden tips and a fan in their right hand, participated in a traditional dance side by side, over the sound of drums and Shinobues, bamboo flutes, each step was fluid, the fan flapping hypnotized everyone and to complete the tails fluttering giving a special touch to the scene, Koneko was amazed at the sight and wondered if she should have joined Kunou when she was previously invited to participate in one of the typical dances.
The final event of the night would begin, the fireworks display, the music stopped and the stores closed, some returned to their homes or looked for other places to watch the show. Yan was sitting in the backyard of Yasaka's mansion, with Kunou on his right, Chloe on his left, and Koneko on his lap, looking up at the sky, "A lot has happened in a short time, right?", thought the boy, closing his eyes and feeling the warmth of the three girls around you and remember those who weren't here now, Sona, the little girl who acts and thinks like an adult and in intimate moments knows how cute, Ravel, the girl who should be the most unhappy in his group for being the prize of a bet, however, he became an irreplaceable person, taking the place of the most responsible person of the group, besides of course Akeno, a friend and sister.
A smile bloomed on his face, maybe his feelings were nothing more than a way to fill the void in his mind, without the memories of family, friends, and possible lovers before he was reincarnated, maybe this is God's move to not let him abandon this world its own luck, but he doesn't care, having a family, friends, and people to trust in the worst moments, this was a paradise for him, "Look at a falling star, make a wish", said Kunou, making Yan open his eyes, "May we be together forever", thought Yan.
"Happy birthday, again," Chloe whispered in Yan's ear before giving him a kiss on the cheek, then started fireworks, "Thank you."
Serafall would love to be watching the fireworks display with others, but something urgent came up preventing her from joining, "Why would angels want a meeting right now?" top-secret matter. She came into the room smiling as falsely as possible, to hide her disgust at being in the same room like a chicken with a few extra pairs of wings, instead of being able to be the first to congratulate Yan as she does every year, with a good "snack" before going to sleep, "Hello, why is there an angel in Kyoto at such an inopportune moment?", he asked towards the angel sitting on the other side of the room.
"Thank you very much for receiving us abruptly, Serafall Leviathan-sama, we came on a peace mission at the request of Miguel-sama", he spoke without disdain in his voice, many angels find the devils disgusting and cannot show much disgust for not running the risk of falling, they still make timely comments or demonstrate in indirect ways, such as tone of voice, even releasing small amounts of sacred aura, the same is valid for devils and their dirty tricks, so the encounter without confrontation between the two breeds are very rare and almost impossible if it weren't for the Maou and Seraphim who are trying to make peace, even if only on paper between them.
"My name is Serafina and the nun next to me is Griselda Quarta, an exorcist who is guiding me", the short presentation made Serafall finally realize that he knew the angel, in front of him, one of the few who were allowed to transit between the earth and sky without Miguel's direct permission. "Fina-chan!", Lia ran and hugged her before starting to rub her face on hers, much to Griselda's surprise, seeing two historic enemies being so friendly, then there was a long chat, catching up on the subject, already who had not seen each other for more than two years, a short time for long-lived, pseudo immortal beings.
"So Fina-chan, what is the matter with you? I know you missed me and so did I, but that was not the reason for the right visit? ", Serafall went back to the main point of the meeting, the unexpected visit of an angel wanting to find a Maou without clear intentions is a matter of concern.
Depending on Serafina's response to her life, she would be in danger, even though she is an extremely reliable and clever angel, her battle power is low, being unable to do anything against an enemy that attacks her directly, besides fleeing for her life and given to conversation they had previously is easy for her to assume that Yan will not be delivered easily, even though she doesn't know his power, just for the love that Serafall shows.
After taking a sip of tea, the atmosphere around Serafina became serious and her eyes cold, "Levia-chan, I came in the name of heaven to meet the one who occupies the position of Queen of your sister's peerage", after finishing talking took another sip of the tea served by Griselda for both of them.
"And what is the matter?", Maou did not show her surprise when she learned that the sky was watching a simple reincarnated devil, which meant a big problem because depending on the still unknown circumstances, Yan's sacrifice could be considered to avoid conflicts and save the ass from useless devils, like Diadora asTRASHroth.
"I can tell you that a war can be started depending on our conversation", on hearing Serafina's words, Serafall released some of his devil power by stagnating the air and freezing the room and said calmly, "Measure your words".
Serafina had just confirmed her assumptions, if it weren't for Miguel's words that she would like to use war as a last resort or even discard it she would have already started a tougher approach, but that is not the case and Serafall is a friend. "Sorry, I just got a little carried away", the room returned to its original state after the angel apologized, with some moisture stains on the floor and walls, "I'll make it clearer, Yan is a Sacred Gear user, and we are interested in it, that's why I was assigned to come here ", the friendly atmosphere returned to permeate the room.
Serafall stopped to think for a few minutes trying to understand their interest in Yan, his Sacred Gear is a mutated Sword Birth that has a being sealed inside, Chloe, that there is no historical information about its origin and the only one who seems to know everything about it is her master who does not reveal anything about it, but even so, she never gave reason to be investigated further, despite Juka-chan asking to send DNA samples to her laboratory, without success.
"I see, she is very interesting indeed, different from the ordinary Sword Birth that makes the sword rise from the ground, Yan-Kun can create his sword in the air, all right? I'll let you talk to he tomorrow under my supervision, anything else?". Serafina wanted to get more from her, but trying something now could be considered a sin that would make her fall and with that, the meeting was postponed to the following afternoon giving her little time to think about a good strategy. None of those present would ever hope that the casually arranged meeting could cause drastic changes in heaven and in the relationship between devils and angels.
My name is Griselda Quarta, and I was assigned to be Serafina-sama's escort on a visit to Japan, leaving aside my service of instructing my pupil in the way of God and the sword temporarily, thanks to this being one of the few moments when I have been able to leave the Vatican in recent years, since Xenovia's talent was discovered, I decided to make a small detour through Japan before we went to Kyoto, the best decision I had, because we avoided participating in a war and being caught in the crossfire, I thank God for this gift.
Upon arriving in Kyoto we were received relatively well for having a neutral relationship with the Youkai Faction and asked for an audience with Maou Serafall, which was only possible at the end of the festival, one more grace from God for this humble servant who had never experienced perks of worldly life.
Finally, we had the meeting, but I noticed the visible disrespect that a devil was having against an angel, a divine being, the son of my beloved God, before I could say anything Serafina introduced us and the climate changed 180 ° when Maou and Angel looked like friends at a slumber party, talking about clothes, food, mahou shoujo and boys, the last topic impressed me when I heard of a young reincarnated devil who beat a thoroughbred and his nobility at such a young age, of course, I didn't participate in the conversation and just served the tea delivered by one of the mansion's servants.
The atmosphere in the room cooled when Serafina mentioned a war, I quickly moved my hand to the crucifix on my necklace, this is Excalibur Mimic, capable of turning into anything, but there was no need to intervene and the meeting continued without problems, I wonder what kind of training the reincarnated devil went through to become so strong, I should increase Xenovia's training a little more, 100 squats, sit-ups, and chest support, in addition to 10 km of walking should be a good start.
"So Serafina-sama, what's the interest in the boy's Sacred Gear?", We are currently in one of the rooms at the Kyoto Leaders' mansion, waiting for the next day to talk to Yan Zollen. "Griselda, don't ask questions that I can't answer", said the angel lying on the bed full of accumulated stress, it was just a conversation in which his brain was working at full speed to not fail in its mission and start a war accidentally.
"Sorry, I didn't want to meddle in heavenly affairs", I said, bowing my head because of my insolence, who am I to meddle in the affairs of heaven, the father chose me for a purpose, to protect her, I don't need to know the reasons or the circumstances. "You don't need to make that face, I'll tell you a secret", Serafina approached Griselda's ear and whispered seductively, "If I were a man you would have already lost your virginity", leaving the static nun in shock at the bold words that heard.
"You are not a fallen angel in disguise, are you?", Serafina smiled and shook her head at the words of Griselda, who did not understand the joke, the angel had already discovered that if her logic and feelings are pure her words and actions they didn't let her fall, for example, now she imagined both of them getting married in a family that would follow God all their life, before speaking those words.
"I hope the boy is as easy to talk to as you are, Griselda," she thought of the angel before falling into dreamland.

CREATORS' THOUGHTS 
L4DR1X
L4DR1X As promised in another chapter, one of my biggest difficulties is to demonstrate how Yan's existence completely shook the canon taking the story in a new direction so characters like Kanon and Serafina are important to demonstrate that the story will not follow the original. I hope you enjoyed.
Your gift is the motivation for my creation. Give me more motivation!
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
