I can’t help myself but ask Ravel about the words I heard for the first time.
(It’s the title that was given recently to the four young Devils consisting of Sairaorg Bael-sama, Seegvaira Agares-sama, Rias-sama, and Sona-sama. Even looking back at recent years, it’s called a generation gathered with promising rookies that are in the exceptional level. Did you know that even looking throughout the history of the Underworld, the generation you and Rias-sama belongs to is something which is out of the ordinary for a rookie who still hasn’t matured?)
I-Is that so……? So we are among such an amazing generation…… Well yeah, Sairaorg-san and Kiba’s strength are insanely crazy after all.
—Then someone enters the room. It’s Azazel-sensei.
“My bad, I was the only one who had to stay longer for the meeting. Oh, if it isn’t Mephisto!”
Seeing the holographic vision from the magic-circle, he responds by making a smile right away. Mephisto-san also raises his hand gently when he sees Sensei.
[Hey hey, Azazel. It hasn’t been that long since we last met. I had myself talk to Rias-chan first.]
“Yeah, the magicians association must be having a rough time after all. More than that, do you want to go drinking over here next time? I got my hands on some good alcohol.”
I have the impression that they have known each other for a long time.
“Do you know him?”
I ask Sensei.
“Yeah. We go way back. When Mephisto distanced himself from the old government of the Devils, we, the Grigori, allowed ourselves to contact him personally.”
Hee, he sure is a former Governor-sama who knows his own way. Rather than that, this person really has many connections with other places.
[Grigori’s information was a great help, Azazel. After all, I’m still getting assistance from Grigori even now.]
“Same goes to us, Mephisto. Well, there isn’t any disadvantage for the Fallen Angels to have connections with the association of the magicians in secret after all. And we don’t have to keep that as a secret now since the Three Great Powers made an alliance.”
From there, the two of them talk about this and that about the business world while leaving us behind.
“What!? Seriously!? That mythology which has been declining to make an alliance came for a negotiation?”
[Rather than that, it seems like there are those investigating the Dragon’s incident that was mentioned previously. So you shouldn’t be expecting for the alliances. They have basically been cutting ties with us. Thanks to that, we can’t obtain proper information on the mythologies which have isolated themselves.]
“……That matter huh. Well, the old mythology faction has been completely ignoring the other factions. Even if the rebels from their factions turn their fangs on us, they will probably continue to play dumb about it.”
