After Rias introduced her new bishop named Asia to the devil world, this time she told Asia about her being a devil right away. I hope my argument helped her with that choice.
But in the aftermath of killing fallen angels Rias told her brother Sirzechs. Being the leader of the devils he was forced to go explain what happened to the fallen angel leader Azazel.
I asked to go with, not just to give first hand knowledge of what happened. I also wanted to see my mother, who lives in the fallen angel territory.
Sirzechs wasn't very happy about the whole situation. But he understood both my motives for wanting to tag along.
(underworld entrance to the fallen angel territory)
"so what's the plan for meeting Azazel?" I ask Sirzechs
"we are to wait here for a guide, then meet and explain what happened, to Azazel" he answered
"do you think it would be wise to tell Azazel about me. I don't really see him letting me see the diamond devils if he thinks I'm a regular devil?" I said
"I do think you will have to, but he might ask to scan you. I fear he will detect the other parts of you that aren't devil or angel" Sirzechs told to me as he thought aloud "but maybe telling Azazel would help you, maybe he could work with Ajuka and help suppress your growing draconic power"
'to bad it's not really growing, it's the aura of a [dragon god] I thought to myself 'I just am getting forgetful to suppress it at the same level every time you test it'
"if he does ask to scan my power. I'll need to talk to him alone" I said aloud 'because if he scans me, there is a great chance he would since Samael inside of me. He's the sacred gear master. He might notice it right away' I thought
"what don't you want me to know?" Sirzechs joked
"oh nothing really. Just family secrets" I joked back
"it looks like our escort is here" Sirzechs said pointing to the sky
I looked where he was pointing. There flying too us was a metallic white dragon. I knew right away it was a heavenly class dragon. Which meant it was the sacred gear [divine dividing] I tried my best to suppress my godly aura, but I had a feeling I was too late.
As the dragon landed, the suit dropped to one knee. It looked like the person inside didn't want to kneel before us but the suit took over control
Sirzechs, thinking the kneeling was for him said "you have no need to kneel. I am here as a representative of devils, not as a maou"
I chimed in after saying "please don't kneel"
After my line the person seemed to take control and stood saying in the dragon voice "I apologize for what I did. It seems my suit decided to kneel and not tell me why"
"that's quite alright, let us make our way to the capital building to meet Azazel and move past this" Sirzechs spoke
I was thinking 'thank goodness the dragon didn't tell the person who he was bowing to. That would have given me away too quickly'
We walked in silence until we got to a giant 100 story building. That's when I noticed a problem with the building. "there's no door?" I asked
"no, everybody has wings so the entrance to every major building is at the top" the dragon suit spoke
"well that's definitely an interesting way to do things" Sirzechs spoke back
I just told Acheron to come out give me a lift. Should have thought that through a little better. As soon as he was visible, that suit seemed to take control again and move in for an attack.
I jumped in front of the suit as it reached out to touch my dragon. My instinct was to draw my scythe and rip the dragon to pieces, but my judgment got the better of me and I just looked into the eyes of the dragon suit
"this dragon is off the kill list, he is under my protection" I declared
{"as you say"} the suit said in a real draconic voice that didn't have any of the persons other voice blended in with it
Then I got on Acheron and we all flew to the top of the building. As we entered the building there was only an elevator. Getting in the button pressed was B12. Of the numbers 100-B14
It took a good 5 minutes to reach the sub ground floor. Once the door opened we were in a single sized room with a big wood desk in the center
The dragon person walked through a door then came back with Azazel fallowing behind
Sitting down after we all bowed Azazel said "so what is it we were going to discuss today?"
"I am here to explain the deaths of four fallen angels" Sirzechs said
"ahh..now I remember. I sent them to your territory for a simple watch and report mission. But I never received any updates. I already assumed the fallen angels you described, had been killed" Azazel said reading a paper
I spoke up then "when you say watch, you do mean 'not' kill the boy with a sacred gear. Right?"
"oh course, why would I want to kill an important human like that?" Azazel looked at me
I looked at Siezechs and said "it seems we killed a few stray angels"
He just nodded
"well now I'm curious about what happened?" Azazel all but asked
So I explained what happened. Leaving out the type of gear issei has and leaving out the way I killed the three fallen.
"well I did not intend that. But it seems that they believed they were on my orders to kill those people." Azazel spoke thinking about all that happened
"we would still like to give you proper compensation for the lives of the fallen" Sirzechs said
Azazel then looked at me and smiled "I know just what would be worth it." He then pointed to me "I would like to run a few tests on the boy that's with you"
"no that's out of the-" Sirzechs started but I stood up
"fine. But whatever you find you are sworn to secrecy" I looked at the white suit. Anything that was learned about me, will stay to themselves"
"deal" Azazel quickly says to me and Sirzechs
I look at Sirzechs and say "I'll give you word when I am back home in the human world. Please don't tell Serafall about this" I plead at the end
"very well. I will await your news" he said rising and leaving with the white suit
(level B13/ research and development)
"is there anything you want to tell me about before I start?" Azazel askes me
"I'll consider telling you if you can find it." I said cryptically
"good. I like a challenge" he said
He then started to use five different machines and ten or so different magic circles. After a few minutes one machine started printing out paper really fast
He then stopped everything and gestured to a desk. He sat down and started reading.
After an hour he looked at me and smiled. He through a hand up, and the room was warded with a very strong ward to keep out any spies.
Then decided to speak "you are by far the most interesting thing I have ever set eyes on"
"thank-you?" I said
"I would like to tell you a story about the birth of devils before I tell you what I found. I think it will answer any questions that you might develop about yourself" he said
"okay, I'm down for a story" I replied
(Azazel's past)[Azazel's p.o.v}
In heaven I was a regular guard. Day in day out nothing ever happened, it was the most boring job I had ever had. But one day it all changed. The day humanity received the gift of knowledge, after humans were cast out of the [Garden of Eden] the apple that was given to the humans was locked away inside the golden vault. I was lucky, or unlucky enough to be the guard of the vault.
One-day Archangel Michael was inside like he normally was, studying the two halves of the apple of knowledge. It was split between two great powers. Half was the heavenly virtue's. It was an all white half that looked to be carved of a perfect piece of marble. The other half was the powers of sin. It was a rotted and decayed half apple.
As I was doing my job protecting the vault Archangel Lucifer went into the vault. I later learned that he stole the sin half of the apple and ate it, then ripped off his wings. Casting himself out of heaven. A few days later Michael ate the virtue half and gained the golden wings he is known by.
While Lucifer fell into hell and created the race of devil's. a result of this was the balance of power in the supernatural world and a peace between humans and monsters that would last thousands of years.
YHWH was angered by his twin sons going behind his back to eat the forbidden apple, but what was done was done. So instead he chose to curse the new race of devils.
God thought in his wisdom that if a devil was ever born with natural white wings that that devil will unleash the apocalypse and destroy all of existence.
(back to present){Stixx's p.o.v}
"so what does that all mean?" I ask after hearing the truth behind Devils
"I'll get to the apocalypse part soon, right now I want to talk about the two half apples" Azazel tells me
"yah, the two halves of the apple of knowledge" I said remembering
"yes, it's just like your two fires I detected in you, the flame of sin and holy fire. Those are the same as the two half's, and like the two half's they combined back into the original flame of knowledge" Azazel said explaining his thinking
"so your saying that my fire symbolizes the original apple from the Garden of Eden?" I asked trying to get my head around it all
"that's exactly what I'm saying. You had some really lucky parents. If your father wasn't a user of holy fire, and your mother wasn't a user of sin fire. You would have never been able to be born. Without those fires combining within you, you would have been ripped apart." Azazel said
That took a minuet to sink in
"wait, how could you tell my father was the angel?" I asked wanting to know the answer
"simple. Only those of Michael's blood line can use [Holy fire] so it had to be a male, because Michael only has one son." He told me smiling
"okay I'll give you that." I said laughing so what was this about me bringing an end to the world?"
"oh…that…..well let's just say it's believed that you, being a white winged devil will one day awaken the beast of the apocalypse, but don't worry about that. It's a prophecy. Its usually ends differently then what people think" Azazel says waving his hand dismissively
"well that fills me with hope" I deadpan
" . what I want to talk about is all the dragon energy flowing in you" he shows my two charts "this is the energy level of Vali, the white dragon emperor you meet earlier" it was a power reading of 12,000 "12,000 is comparable to an ultra-high class devil, just below a super devil. That's just draconic energy." Then he shows me the chart in the stack of papers I made from the scan "your draconic energy level is a symbol ∞ I've never seen a reading like that before."
"that one I won't be telling you about. Unless you can guess I won't be filling you in" I spoke darkly
"woah woah, easy" he took out another paper "I was just telling you about it"
"it's not something for light conversation" I said
"then let's move on to the last weird thing about you." He took a deep breath "I don't know how, and I don't know why. But I hope you understand the consequences of your actions."
I sat perfectly still. I know he found Samael, now I just had to see what he did with the knowledge
"I have a feeling if I go to Cocytus the big room at the end of the hallway would be empty" Azazel spoke "but I don't really care about that. What I want to know is how you managed to make it. I have spent almost 2,000 years on trying to make a [Longinus class sacred gear], but you managed before me"
I sat back a little "I'm shocked that you could sense who it was?" I was very interested
"well I have a lot of experience with them" he said starting to get his smile back
"do you want to see him?" I asked Azazel
"of course!" he yelled
"then I have a favor to ask?"
"what, anything?"
"I want you to help me move Diamond devil's back into devil territory" I said seriously
"they came to my territory for a reason. They were kicked out of the devil territory" Azazel said
"I know, when I get that decision undone I want your help convincing them to go back" I request
"I'll happily help with that. Its where they belong after all" he said
"thank you for understanding" I say
I then summon the rainbow scythe and lay it on the scanning table. Table then lights up and its starts printing paper. After a few moments a bolt of colorful lightning arks across the room and blows apart most of the weapons on another table.
"aww….my custom sacred gears, it took me years to make those" Azazel says sounding depressed
"I'm sorry, I don't know why it did that" I apologized
"its fine, I can make them again" he said
Then he read the papers that the table printed. "this is amazing, it's the most powerful gear I have ever seen. I predict it's equal to the true Longinus god made by hand."
"well I'll give the person how made it a compliment" I said to him
"I would much rather meet them" he said to me
"I don't think that would happen, sorry" I told him
"too bad." He said to himself "well that's all the test I wanted. I'll go over the paperwork once more then destroy them, thank you for your time."
"it was fun. Thank you for the history lesion" I said
I then put the scythe back onto my back it a tattoo form, then walked out to teleport home.
