Meet Azazel

One day after the battle with Kokabiel.

When you're back to your base, Raynare reported:

"My Lord, we have made contact with Azazel-sama. He said that he wants to have a meeting with you."

Azazel was a tall man with an average build, black hair, golden bangs, and black goatee. On the first look, his appearance was no different from a normal man in his twenties. Seeing you appeared, he just calmly greeted: "Welcome, Red Dragon Emperor."

You realized that Raynare didn't reveal your true identity.

That's good, the showing was better than any explanation.

You smiled and replied: "If you think being polite can make me forgive the fuss caused by Kokabiel, then you need to think again."

"I think if the one who can complain about that is Rias, not you."

"Why do you think I'm not qualified to make a complain?"

"I have the impression that you're her subordinate."

"No, I'm just the subordinate of her boobs."

Both of you laughed. Then suddenly Azazel's expression became serious: "Ok, there are enough jokes. Do you have anything to say with me?"

You looked directly at him: "Do you believe in God?"

Someone else would respond like "what stupid question are you asking". Azazel was just quietly thinking. Then he asked: "What is your relationship with God?"

"Let's assume I'm his apprentice, do you believe me?"

"I can see Raynare's loyalty has been shifted. You can't do that with power alone. However, that's not why I want to meet you today. Let's go straight to the main part: what is your goal?"

You laughed: "What you want to know is not my goal, but whether or not it can affect your goal. And I can answer you: Help me with my goal and I can fulfill yours."

Azazel's expression changed greatly. He coldly said: "Do you know what are stopping us?"

"The rules of Heaven, right? Now it's my turn to ask: Who do you think can change these rules?"

"If you're that strong, why need our help?"

"I already said I'm still an apprentice. I need to get rid of four other illegal apprentices first."

For a while, no one said anything. Azazel broke the silence first: "I have a plan."

"I'm hearing."

"In the next month, the leaders of the Three Factions will attend a meeting to prolong the peace treaty. We can prepare and perform a coup d'état there. According to my information, Michael himself is the one who controls the power of God. Killing him will help our goal. And if we successfully capture Sirzechs Lucifer, then you can do anything you like to Rias..."

You interrupted him: "An interesting idea, but it's unrealistic."

Azazel was stunned: "I don't understand..."

"You don't think Three Factions are the only power in the world, do you?"

"Are you referring to other Pantheon? But they can't possibly know! And even if they can, they are too busy to beware of each other..."

"And if I tell you there is an organization consisted of multiple races, from multiple Pantheon?"

Azazel fell silent. After a long time, he said: "If that's the truth, what should we do?"

"Don't worry, I already have a plan..."

NOTE: I'm quite busy these days, so the release rate might be slow.
