Bab 256: Leave
Riser caught three members of the Khaos Brigade trespassing in his domain.
At the time, the entire Underworld and many other parts of the supernatural world were surprised!
It wasn't that they felt surprised that Riser had caught those members, but they were surprised that the Khaos Brigade dared to invade the domain of the current Lucifer.
Yet, when they heard the identity of those three members, they fell into silence because of their identities.
Kuroka, the SS-Rank Criminal.
Bikou, the descendant of Sun Wukong.
Arthur Pendragon, a member of the Pendragon family, was also a descendant of the legendary British King.
With how amazing the identities of the three were, they became amazed at Riser once again, thinking that he was really strong, and the confidence of the devils became even higher under his leadership, as everything would be okay.
Nevertheless, while no one was afraid as long as Riser was around, the meeting of the three factions was held once again.
Kuroka aside as Riser had put him into his villa, Michael and Baraqiel, along with Serafall, Ajuka, and Falbium, came to discuss how to handle Bikou and Arthur Pendragon.
"I will handle Kuroka. You can take the rest."
"...." Everyone.
While they were speechless, no one said anything as Riser was the one who caught the three, and to be honest, whatever he wanted to do with them, he was free. Still, for him to contact the angel and the fallen angel showed that he respected them as an ally, which made them happy.
"Um... can you let the two go?"
Yet, among those who were invited to this meeting, there was one bug that joined this meeting brazenly.
"Baraqiel, what's the meaning of this?" Serafall looked at Baraqiel with dissatisfaction for bringing Azazel with him.
"This..." Baraqiel felt awkward, but he knew that facing Azazel, he was helpless.
As the leader of the fallen angel and angel came to this meeting, the two brought their companion.
While Baraqiel came with Azazel, Michael came with Metatron.
Frankly, there was one person who was more suitable to be brought by Michael to this meeting, but he hesitated.
"Is there something wrong, Michael?" Riser felt that Michael's gaze on him was quite strange.
"No, I just want to ask what you want to do with the two?" Like others, Michael didn't agree with Azazel, who told everyone to let go of Arthur and Bikou. No matter how amazing the identity of Arthur and Bikou, the fact that they had invaded Lucifer's domain didn't change. No one knew what their purpose was, but it definitely wasn't something good. Moreover, with the damage caused by the Khaos Brigade, the fact they were members of the Khaos Brigade was something unforgivable.
If they could forgive the two, then they would be looked down upon by the rest, and many other myths would look down on them for getting scared of their identity.
Even if Bikou and Arthur were young, it wouldn't be a reason for one to forgive their crime!
Just because they were young, should they be given a chance? If so, where would the victim ask for justice?
So—
"Riser, can you give the two to me? I will let them talk." Ajuka was still smiling, but everyone felt a chill toward this smile. This was a chance that he had been waiting for, and he knew as long as he got his hands on Arthur and Bikou, his chance to uncover the death of Sirzech would be close. Even if he couldn't, he could also lure out Vali as he knew whether Arthur or Bikou were Vali's dear comrades.
Riser was about to agree, but Azazel interrupted the meeting once again. "No! I think we should return them to the Pendragon family and Sun Wukong! We have lost our God! We lost his protection! We are all by ourselves! Right now, what we need to do is to gain more allies so we can fight against the Khaos Brigade!
"Moreover, as long as we give the two back to the Pendragon family and Sun Wukong, we might be able to gain their goodwill, making them their allies!"
"...."
Everyone fell in silence by Azazel's words as they knew gaining more allies was more critical at this moment, especially when the Khaos Brigade was too dangerous.
Yet—
"You can have them, Ajuka."
"Thank you, Riser." Ajuka smiled, feeling elated.
"RISER!" Azazel was angered by Riser's decision.
"You don't need to shout. I can hear you."
"Then, why didn't you listen to me?! Returning the two is the best course for all of us! What we need now is a strong ally who can help us fight our predicament! We don't need more enemies!"
Azazel could imagine the moment Ajuka got his hands on Arthur and Bikou, the chance of them staying alive was almost zero. Even if they were alive, they would be crippled by Ajuka's torture as he knew how much love Ajuka had for Sirzech.
Riser looked at Azazel and asked once again, "Azazel, there is one question that I have always wanted to ask you. Are you really not a member of the Khaos Brigade?"
"..." Azazel.
Azazel felt a cold sweat as he could feel all the gazes on him, but he quickly said, "I am just thinking the best for this alliance! I don't want us to fight other supernatural myths due to this small fight!"
"Small fight? There are many high-ranking devils, fallen angels, and angels that participated in my hotel during that gathering, so you think that it is alright for them to be hurt?"
"But they are not hurt!"
"But by trespassing on my domain, they should know that this is the same as a provocation to my status." Riser looked at Azazel, who was still high. "Do you think it is alright for them to do this?"
"That's..."
If it were others, Azazel didn't care, but Riser?
If Azazel dared so, he knew he wouldn't be able to come out alive.
"It's just Sun Wukong and the Pendragon House. Why are you so scared of them?" Riser felt that Azazel was too much of a coward.
"You don't understand."
"No, it's you who don't understand." Riser shook his head as he kept staring at Azazel. "We don't have our God. If we cower back just because of the descendant of the cuck king and a stupid monkey, what will the world think of us?"
"..." Everyone.
While Riser's words made them speechless, they felt that Riser's decision was correct. If they cowered due to the identity of Bikou and Arthur, what would the others think them to be?
The fact that Arthur and Bikou were members of the Khaos Brigade didn't change, and the two of them needed to pay a certain price.
As for Kuroka?
Well, there was no need to mention her as they knew Kuroka wouldn't be able to do anything with Riser by her side.
"Also, next time, you don't need to come, Azazel. The meeting is over. Let's go back. Take care of the two for me, Ajuka."
"Leave it to me."
The meeting ended quickly, as there was no need for them to discuss much about Arthur and Bikou as they were left in reliable hands.
As for Azazel? Everyone was completely disappointed in him, especially when they heard his answer about how he didn't show much care toward the high-ranking devils, fallen angels, and angels who happened to be present at the gathering.
"Michael, I have heard that the reincarnation angel project is successful now."
"Yes." Michael nodded at Riser's question. "We're on the right track right now. We have succeeded in making our version of Evil Piece, Brave Saint. We have a lot of reincarnated angels now, including Xenovia's partner, Irina."
"Oh? Really?"
"Yes." Michael nodded. "I planned to send her to Kuoh Town to help with the Khaos Brigade and a bridge for us to communicate with each other, but what do you think?"
"If that's the case, I will tell my wife."
"Okay."
The two of them talked smoothly, and everyone also walked out of the meeting room.
However, Azazel had been at a loss even after he returned to Grigori's headquarters.
Watching this, Baraqiel, who stood by his side, couldn't help but sigh.
"Come on." Baraqiel patted Azazel's shoulder with a sigh, then whispered, "You should give up. There is no place for him in this place anymore."
"Wh-What do you mean?" Azazel was startled.
"I am telling you this as my dear comrade, or else I might lose you. I don't want to lose anyone again."
Baraquel knew that Azazel's move might anger Riser sooner or later, and he wished for him to stop, but he knew whatever he said, it would be ignored by Azazel, so he just left and let out a long sigh.
Watching Baraqiel, who left, Azazel opened his lips and wanted to say something, but he couldn't. He looked at the scenery in the surroundings and watched how peaceful the territory of the fallen angels was. Everyone was full of smiles and laughs, but he knew his actions might bring misery to them. Yet, could he ignore his dear son?
"I am sorry."
For those to whom that apologizes, no one known as Azazel left directly after that.
