I was drinking tea in the garden.
In front of me were Sirzechs and Azazel—these two had practically become inseparable…
"You really did an amazing job against Samael. People in the Underworld are still talking about you," said Azazel.
Sirzechs took a sip of his tea: "Yes, and even though you've been suspended from being a lawyer for 3 years, people want to see you back among them. Do you have anything in mind?"
I clenched my fist: "Where is Hades?"
"We can't find him. He's hiding, maybe he is still in the underworld, but because of his stupid helmet is impossible to catch him. He knew about this, but the Greek pantheon won't hand him over to us easily," said Azazel.
I gritted my teeth this time.
Both Rizevim and Hades are messing with my nerves!!!!!
Those sons of bitches know about my clan trait, and now that my power has increased, they don't dare come near me.
I need to talk to Shiva somehow and at least give Indra a good beating.
Ah… maybe Great Red knows something?
Should I try summoning Ophis?
Hero Faction members are still strong, but not that strong anymore.
Sirzechs: "Are you okay? Why did you go quiet?"
"Do you remember once you told me if am gonna judge Greek gods. Looks like it's turning into reality. Also, we shouldn't ignore the possibility that we're being watched right now. Hades's schemes are extremely annoying. Soon, the army of the dead will start attacking us," I said.
Sirzechs chuckled: "Well, besides Hades, it seems like you're planning to judge other gods too, but it's too late. I talked to Shiva, and he's trying to make a deal with Indra.
Indra is the type who wants fun. If Shiva actively tells him to stop—whether he wants to or not—he has to stop."
"No… Indra will continue scheming behind the scenes. He disgusts me. Even Nyx disgusts me. If Gabriel and Grayfia hadn't wanted it, I'd search Samael everywhere instead of meeting her," I said.
"You seem to get along quite well with Grayfia and my mother. At first, I wanted to beat you up, but I see my mother is happy… Plus, you're taking good care of her. Grayfia is a free woman. I never interfered with what she wanted to do, and honestly, I'm glad she found you," Sirzechs gave a genuine smile.
This guy really is something else.
I relaxed: "Thanks, Sirzechs. I'm trying my best to take care of them, and I don't want to be a bastard…"
From afar, a song echoed through the mansion.
It was Ingvild's voice.
She liked to sing to herself sometimes, and I had allowed it.
She had a very beautiful voice, and it relaxed me…
"Good, good… I didn't want Kokabiel to die, but you weren't the one who killed him—Gabriel did, so my feelings are a bit mixed. Lavinia and Valerie have been coming to Grigori more often lately and seem to be investigating Rizevim," said Azazel.
"The girls wanted to help me. I didn't reject them—well, I couldn't reject them. Lavinia and Valerie are very kind people, and they know my mind is a mess right now, so they're doing everything they can. I understand them, but I never asked for help."
Azazel created a magic circle, and drinks appeared.
I took one.
He pointed at me: "It would've been good if you accepted help sometimes. Even you couldn't do everything alone. Several world-sized areas were erased and recreated in your fight against Samael. That dimension was cooked."
"Who recreated the dimension?" I asked curiously.
Sirzechs: "Great Red. He showed himself once and, with a swipe of his claw, the entire area was recreated as if nothing had happened. The dragons returned to their places thanks to Ingvild. That girl is truly the ultimate weapon against dragons," he said.
I smiled.
That girl was really useful.
On the battlefield, her move had directed the dragons to attack the magicians and caused them huge losses.
I don't know where Hades is or what he's doing.
Maybe he's hiding somewhere in his own domain.
Finding him is impossible unless he wants to, and Nyx said she wouldn't interfere with Hades and would only help me with Rizevim Lucifer matters.
Instead, she's searching Rizevim, and it won't take long to find him—at most 1 year.
"By the way, I once offered to save Rias from her engagement. In return, I suggested a date with Grayfia and money. Are you still going to help?" said Sirzechs.
Since we started drinking, we had opened up a bit more.
I rested my chin on my hand: "Actually, I indirectly helped you. That's why I still want my money."
"What? How?"
"I helped Koneko and Akeno in her peerage. When I dealt with the Himejima Clan, you knew what am gonna do, and you knew that will benefit your sister's peerage, so you supported me against the Shinto gods. Akeno's potential is very high. Kuroka is helping Koneko, and she's learning senjutsu. These two will become strong enough to defeat Riser within 2 years. I sent Akeno a video, and all I asked was for her to train and accept her power," I said.
Sirzechs put his hand to his forehead: "Hehehe, yes, it was good for my sister. I'll send your money. If they can't beat Riser, that's their problem. Maybe I spoiled Rias too much."
"Yes," I said.
Azazel laughed: "Ahahahaha, chill, Cassien, it's really fun seeing your loving side. Let's keep drinking today."
In the end, we drank the whole day.
The last thing I remember is Nyx pulling me between her breasts.
