"Good job on today's battle."

Issei turned around. It was him. That god that saved them earlier. The Great Evil of Reverie, Veles. However, something about him was different. He was far less imposing than he was when Issei met him. However, he still possessed the pressure of a God. And he was far younger as well.

"Did you really think our battle today went well?"

Issei felt something pass through him.

It was that woman again. Her snow-white hair flowed in the slightly chilly breeze. Her face was still blurred out, as if something was intentionally not allowing him to see her identity. Even her voice sounded familiar yet his mind couldn't recognize it no matter how hard he tried.

"Are you still…?" he asked.

The woman nodded.

"Ereshkigal is in the infirmary. If only I hadn't made that call to press forward, then she wouldn't be there. If only…"

"Are you really going to keep blaming yourself for what happened?" Veles asked.

The woman said nothing and looked away.

"You know Eresh doesn't blame you for what happened so you need to stop blaming yourself as well," he said.

"That's so easy for you to say. You weren't the one who almost got caught up in Erebos's attack," she said, gripping her arm.

"You can't expect everything to pan out on the battlefield. Ereshkigal knew what she was doing when she followed you into battle. When she saved you from that stray attack. She made that choice to save you so don't blame yourself for what happened," Veles said, placing a hand on her shoulder.

"Is that really how you comfort girls?" she teased, forcing a smile to her face.

"Oi."

The woman giggled before wiping a stray tear from her eye. "I guess you're right. I can't predict everything that will happen out there. I just don't want my friends to get hurt."

Veles nodded. "Yeah, but we don't want to see you get hurt either-"

Issei strained his ear. He clearly said a name. What did he say? He waited for them to say something when he noticed that the world had frozen. Upon blinking, Issei found himself hurtling through a black void toward a small pinprick of light in the distance and then…

"Ow!"

A loud crash echoed through the room.

Issei groaned when he felt something hard hit his face. He gripped his now-throbbing head and slowly sat up. "Wha…? Where-?" He looked around.

This was… his room? The last thing he remembered was…

"LOKI!" Issei quickly got up to run out the door when someone spoke.

"Loki's gone, kid. You're fine."

That voice. Issei turned around and saw the same man who saved them sitting on a chair next to his bed. He was reading a book- a light novel from the looks of it, with a bored look on his face. His orange-red eyes scanned its words slowly, drinking in each and every detail written by the author.

"You know. I never understood what the appeal of these isekai novels was. Most of these are just power fantasies written by an author to appease their audience," Veles said.

He held the book out in front of him, judging the contents of the book.

"You… You're in my room," Issei said.

Veles flipped to the next page. "I am."

"Wh… What the hell are you doing in my room?" Issei asked, feeling slightly creeped out.

"When you passed out, your body began to leak divine power and I was the only one who could carry you back. If any of your friends tried to touch you, they'd be fried," Veles said.

Divine power? Mastema?

For once, the apparition said nothing. Instead, Issei just saw her, hovering in the air and silently staring at the god in front of them.

"Did you… heal me?" Issei asked.

"No. Your friend with Twilight Healing did. After we got you to your room, I mitigated the effects of that woman's divine power on your friend's body," he replied.

"That… woman's?"

Veles quirked an eyebrow when he heard Issei's question. "You're an Ascendant. You should know whose power you have, no?"

"Lilith's. But Lilith is a Devil. How could Lilith have Divine Power?" Issei asked.

"Kali exaggerated you when she told us about you." Veles snapped his book shut. "Listen up, kid. That Boundary. It is originally Lucifer's. How you got it is strange but… there's no mistaking it. The power inside your body isn't Lilith's. It's hers."

"I have… what now?" Issei asked.

This was all so strange. Issei was a Devil. He just thought the divinity inside his blood came from the Fallen Humanity Project but this God was saying something else. He looked discreetly to Mastema for answers.

"Don't look at me. Do you really think I'd have the answer to this?" Mastema asked.

You always do, Issei replied.

"Not this time, Ise-chan. Sorry…" Mastema said.

Odd. She usually gave him a straightforward answer. Issei had known her long enough to know that she had just dodged his question completely.

"Anyway, you're awake now. I was hoping to see how far you've progressed with your Boundary in that fight but… it seems you can't even manifest a Crown yet. I'll leave you to your friends for now. We'll see each other again, Hyoudou Issei," Veles said, getting up to leave.

"Wait!" Issei asked.

Veles's hand stopped short of the doorknob.

"Tell me what that means? What do you mean it's Lucifer's power?" Issei asked.

"Exactly what it means. Inheritance allows you to inherit the Boundary from the Original Ascendant. But it doesn't allow your power to be exactly like theirs. But you, your power, all of it down to the wavelength of how her power resonates through Yesh. It's exactly the same as hers," Veles said.

Issei became unnerved by his words. Was he saying that he was the reincarnation of the Devil herself?

"It's no wonder that Kali took an interest in you. If I hadn't known what you looked like, I'd have thought that you were Lucifer herself," Veles said. He opened the door, leaving the room and leaving Issei alone inside.

"What the hell does that mean? Did he think I was Lucifer or something? Hey, Mastema, what do you think about-" Issei glanced over to her only to notice she had vanished.

"Where the hell?"

[She vanished right after Veles left, Partner.] Ddraig said.

"Where the hell did she go?" Issei asked.

[As if I would know the answer to that. Come now. Let's go downstairs. The others must be worried about you.] Ddraig said.

Issei sighed and nodded.


Him waking up was an event akin to someone coming back to life. Apparently, he had been stabbed in such a location that time was of the essence to heal him and bring him back. When Issei got downstairs, the first thing that happened was that he had been swarmed on all sides by the girls while his teammates and Azazel stood on the sidelines, laughing at his predicament. It had taken three hours for him to get away from the swarming, despite his enjoyment of it, he needed to get his bearings together.

Mastema being missing for three hours was not something he needed right now.

"Ah, Aniki."

Issei turned and saw Mitsuki behind him. She wore an oversized red hoodie that covered her volleyball shorts underneath. She walked over to him and rested her arms on the balcony.

"Mii-chan," Issei replied.

"What a hectic couple of hours. You almost died," she said.

"Yeah, I…" Issei balled his hands into fists and his body shook.

He almost died. No, he had almost died multiple times and died once since becoming a Devil but never before had he feared dying this time around. Maybe it was the knowledge that something was out to get his soul afterward was the thing that was bothering him.

"How are you? I couldn't get to you since Rias and the others were all swarmed around you," Mitsuki said.

"Eh? I'm fine. Asia patched me up just fine," Issei said, flashing her a smile.

Mitsuki smiled and nodded. "Lord Veles carried you on his back all the way back up to your room. Did you see him when you woke up?"

"Yeah, it was kinda weird. Having some random person in your room when you wake up. The last time something like that happened, Prez was the one that was there," Issei said.

"Pfft, let me guess. Rias was naked when you woke up next to her," she said.

"Yeah, it was kinda surprising. Nice view though but kinda surprising," Issei said.

The two remained quiet for a few seconds before Issei opened his mouth to talk again.

"Hey, Mii-chan. You know… Veles-sama said something weird to me. He said that my power feels like the Devil's-"

"Aren't you one?" she joked.

"No, no, not like that. I mean… it's kinda weird how he said it," Issei said.

"Mmm? Weird how?" Mitsuki asked.

"He said my power resonates exactly the same way hers does through Yesh or whatever. I don't know what that means," Issei admitted.

"I don't either. I don't know much about Ascendants and their crap," she said.

Issei nodded.

"About what happened in Asmodeus's office…"

"I'm sorry. I kind of lashed out at you when it all went down," she said.

"No, no, it's fine. I… would have lashed out too. Sorry about how I've been acting," Issei said.

"It's not your fault. We're all just coming to terms with what just happened," Mitsuki sighed. "I just… don't want you to die."

Issei remained silent. He understood how she felt. He had lost her once already and now she was going to lose him. That desperation to bring someone they loved back no matter what price they had to pay. However, unlike him… Issei shook his head.

"I know," Issei said.

"So… let's not keep talking about all of this. Let's talk about something more fun. The Gods aren't going to be here tomorrow so we can just enjoy a normal day off," Mitsuki said.

"Aunt Sae is coming tomorrow, isn't she?" Issei said, feeling a slight shiver crawl down his spine.

Mitsuki's face blanched and she nodded. "Yeah, she is… she's going to be here for the whole meeting. Even when we leave for neutral territory," she said.

"We're fucked, aren't we?" Issei said.

"As long as we don't misbehave, Aunt Sae won't do anything…"

"As long as we can get through this," Issei said.

"Well, as long as Lord Veles is here, Loki won't try anything. He was able to one-shot Fenrir like he was nothing so Loki will probably think twice about attacking… unless of course, Loki is that stupid," Mitsuki said.

"He looks stupid. Have you seen his hair?" he commented. "Anyway, we'll get through this meeting with no problem at all! We got Lord Veles, Sensei, that Old Man, and Aunt Sae! What kind of idiot would attack this meeting?"

"The type of idiot that thinks he can bring Ragnarok when his Chief God is talking to another pantheon."

Issei almost jumped. Mitsuki raised an eyebrow when she saw her friend's body involuntarily stiffen up.

At least give me some warning! Issei said.

"Aww, your surprised, freaked-out face looks really cute," Mastema chided.

"Are you alright?" Mitsuki asked.

"Yeah. Ddraig just said something," Issei said.

[Really?] Ddraig said.

Issei ignored him.

"Anyway, Aniki, I'm getting tired. Ingvild and I are going to head home. We'll see you tomorrow at school," Mitsuki said.

Mitsuki walked toward the door.

"Wait, Mii-chan. We'll get through this," Issei said. "I won't let them take me that easily so… don't worry about me."

Mitsuki stood at the door for a few seconds, never turning to look back at him. "I know," she said after a few seconds. And with that, Mitsuki left the house, leaving Issei alone with his thoughts.


"You know. When you said that she was going to be here to look after us, you never said she was going to be a student teacher here," Irina hissed.

"Yeah, Mii-chan. I thought she was just going to be a temporary manager at the cafe," Issei said.

"Oi, oi! I don't control my aunt! Grandpa must have told her to pose as a teacher here!" Mitsuki said. "I thought she was just going to stay at home compiling data for Ingvild and I to analyze later."

Sae Adashino stood at the front of the class, hands behind her back, and dressed in a dress shirt with a black jacket and matching skirt. Her formal appearance was accompanied by her icy stare. Even Asmodeus, in her Sara persona, was unnerved by her stiff and oppressive aura.

"So… this is Miss Adashino. She's going to be with us for a few weeks as a student teacher to get some practical experience for the real world," Asmodeus said, introducing her.

"It's nice to meet all of you."

Her greeting was straight and to the point. Everyone in the class sat ramrod straight. Her tone demanded the utmost respect from everyone in the classroom.

No one dared to utter a word. And that was how class went for the next six hours. Sae stood like a guardian standing vigil in front of their lord's room, keeping them all rooted to their spots and focused on their assignments. It was like none of them were capable of physically taking a break until she did, which she didn't until the day ended.

Even Asmodeus, for all her power as one of the Prime Demons, was tired at the end of the day just from being around her.

"Um, right. Class is dismissed for today. Good job everyone. Remember that tonight's assignment is to write a paper on-"

The entire class let out a groan and began to protest when Sae tapped her heel on the floor. This simple yet forceful sound made the entire class go silent instantly. Asmodeus coughed into her hand.

"As I was saying, this paper is due next week and it's a paper about the similarities between completely unrelated civilizations across history. I want the paper to be at least 5 pages long and you need to use at least 3 sources. Got it?" Asmodeus asked.

The class nodded.

"Finally…"

Issei leaned back in his chair, having felt a mental fatigue unlike any other. Mitsuki nodded and set her pencil down. Her eyes were on the verge of bleeding from overusing Scan in a single day. It was something she never thought possible.

Irina's head was on her desk and her soul began to leak out of her body.

"Mii, why did your aunt decide to go to our school?" Irina asked.

"I… don't know," she said.

"Here she comes," Issei said.

Sae walked up to them with a clipboard in hand. "You three. Come with me."

Her eyes flitted over to Xenovia and Asia, who shrank in their chairs from her intense stare.

The entire class stared at the three with pity as they got up to follow her out of the classroom. As soon as they left, Sae pulled a talisman out of her pocket. She ripped the talisman, causing it to disperse in blue flames.

"Don't worry about talking. I just used a barrier that filters out keywords, making our conversation seem normal to everyone outside the bubble," Sae said.

"Jeez, Auntie. Couldn't you be less intense?" Mitsuki asked.

"Er… it's…" Sae began.

"It's?" Irina asked.

"It's my first time teaching kids so…"

"First time!? You taught us at the Academy!" Mitsuki said.

"That's different. These are normal kids," Sae said. "I'm not training them to be battle-hardened warriors or data analysts. These are just normal kids."

Mitsuki's eyebrow twitched.

"Anyway, I've been in contact with the other delegates that accompanied the Gods. Odin had his entourage negotiate with the entourage of the Slavic Gods. They have a meeting place set in mind," Sae said.

"Already?" Issei asked.

"Mmm. It's going to take place in Asgard," Sae replied.

"Asgard. Isn't that a little…?" Mitsuki asked.

"Mmm. The Slavs were the ones who proposed to do it in Asgard. I guess they're not afraid of being in Norse Territory because they have two Ascendants on their side for this little treaty signing. They don't really have much to fear. I guess it was just made to appease the Norse since doing it in Russia would mean being in Perun's territory. All they ave to do is make it final," Sae said.

"So, do we have to go?" Mitsuki asked.

"Yes, we do. We're supposed to be a neutral third-party arbiter that oversees the entire signing. I don't want to go either. I'd rather leave the diplomacy stuff to your Mom. You and I both know your Dad and I are horrible when it comes to negotiations," Sae said.

"Anyway, I'll give you four more details once I get the setting sorted out. In the meantime, I want you four to get ready in case Loki decides to try something again. We have the White Dragon on call so-"

"Wait, Vali too?" Issei said.

"Mmm. The White Dragon agreed to work with us as long as Loki remains at large. For now, the White Dragon is in agreement with us," Sae said.

"And what about us?" Issei asked.

"You four need to get ready. Especially you, Issei. We have access to a Great Evil so we can get you to train your Boundary more. We need to at least get you to be able to partially manifest a Crown," Sae said.

"A Crown?"

He had heard that term before.

"You'll have to ask Veles about that. I know as much about how Ascendants work as the next person," Sae said.

"So what about you? What are you going to do until the location is finalized?" Irina asked.

"Another job directly from Dad. We've gotten movements from one of the Cardinals of Serpent's Seed but we don't know their target. So until the meeting, I'll be compiling until then. If you need anything, I'll be grading papers and looking over data," Sae said.

"Wait! Auntie!" Mitsuki said.

"What is it?" she asked.

"Can I get a free pass from you? Please! Like give us the answer key for the next exam," Mitsuki begged.

Sae's lips thinned into a line before she raised her hand and knife-chopped her niece's head.

"O- Ow! What the hell was that for!?" Mitsuki protested.

"Study. You're still young. I want you to have a life outside of what we do," Sae said.

"Auntie…"

"All of you. Living this kind of life. There are many people in this world who want to get out. I just wish all of you could live a normal life, even with your circumstances," Sae said, walking away from them.

"And there she goes," Mitsuki said.

"So what now? School is over. We don't have anything to do until the meeting starts. Do you guys want to do anything?" Irina asked.

"I actually have a meeting with Prez and the others. Even with all this Loki stuff, the Rating Games for the Young Devils are still going on and Prez wants to prepare as much as she can for her next opponent," Issei said.

"The end of the world might be happening and Rias wants to play in Rating Games?" Mitsuki asked.

"Hey, she's just making the best of what she has. It's not like there's anything we can do until we can find something to act on. Ever since Beelzebub died, Serpent's Seed has been mostly quiet… almost like we cut the head off the snake," Issei said. "Er… no pun intended."

Irina and Mitsuki nodded.

"Well, now we do know… with what Auntie said that there is also someone there and you said someone offered you the deal. I guess Aniki is right, until we can find something what can we do?" she said.

"So what are you going to do, Mii-chan?" Issei asked.

Mitsuki smiled and grabbed Irina's arm, pulling her in closer much to the girl's surprise. "Rin and I are going to have ourselves a girl's night out so don't wait up for her, Aniki!"

"Eh? Girl's night-"

Mitsuki nudged Irina's ribs subtly, causing the girl to nod. "Mhm! Mii and I haven't seen each other in a long time and with everything that happened with Beelzebub and Serpent's Seed, Mii and I really need to play catch-up with each other."

"A- Alright," Issei said.

"Right! We'll see you tomorrow, Aniki!" Mitsuki said, dragging Irina by her arm down the hall.

"Yeah…" Issei waved goodbye to them, watching them round the corner. Issei sighed and turned around to make his way to the Old School Building when he was met with a familiar set of blue eyes.

He jumped back, surprised by her sudden appearance. She hadn't changed since their first and proper meeting in Centralia, though she looked less starved than before.

"Ah, Issei," she said.

"Sora-senpai," Issei said.

Sora-senpai. She had insisted on that nickname. Ever since they met after the incident regarding the massacre in that town, Issei had been meeting her in the hallway more often. It went from Izayoi-senpai to Sora-senpai per her request.

"Feeling left out?" she asked, leaning to look past him.

"Kind of. I was wondering if they wanted to come hang out with us at the Occult Research Club," Issei said.

"Eh? Really? Mitsuki and Irina are also…?" she asked.

"Mii is a half-devil and Irina became an Angel," he replied.

"So Angels exist too, huh? I figured that might be true," Yozora said, leaning against the wall.

"So, what's up, Senpai?" Issei asked, wondering why she was here.

"Is there anything wrong with wanting to say hi?" she asked.

"Er…"

"Just joking. You know… you're talking to a pretty girl and you're being really stiff," Yozora chided.

"S- Senpai," Issei blushed at her words.

"Ah, that's right! I wanted to ask you something!" Yozora said. She stepped in front of him and smiled.

Issei gulped, feeling nervous about what she was going to ask. She wasn't going to ask him out, was she? For some reason, the thought of dating her gave him the same feeling as it did whenever people joked about him and Mitsuki being in a relationship.

He let out a surprised yelp when he felt her fingers poke his forehead.

"Idiot, what are you thinking about?" she asked, furrowing her brow slightly.

"Nothing," Issei said, touching his forehead. That poke. That feeling was familiar.

Lili-nee...

He cleared his throat. "Anyway, Sora-senpai, what do you need? I might not be the best but I can probably help you more than other people I know!"

Issei puffed his chest out proudly.

Yozora smiled at his response. "I was wondering if you would like to come to the Forensics Club after school every other day."

"Eh? What for?" Issei asked.

"Of course, I want you to be my training buddy!" Yozora replied with a beaming smile.

"Huh?"


"Ah, is everyone here?"

Azazel looked around the room. The setting reminded him of one of those Japanese movies he watched about the Yakuza and how different families often met. They were in a traditional room with a low-set table. Pillows were set out on each side. One for Odin. One for him. Three for the Chief Gods of the Slavs. The setting was picturesque.

Outside, past the sliding door and porch, there was a cherry tree in bloom and its petals gently floated down to a still man-made pond below.

"Azazel-boy, we're just waiting on one person," Odin said, stroking his beard.

Ah yes, they were mostly here. Their most problematic guest was still taking his time. Though, it had been a while. Azazel was almost convinced that the Great Evil of Retribution rose from Yomi and eradicated him herself.

"Hmph." Veles nodded and closed his eyes.

"Oh dear, if he doesn't show up, then Amaterasu will surely be frustrated. She was already irritated when they met in Takamagahara a few hours ago. I wonder… how much more she can handle." A woman said. She had vibrant green hair and a pair of small antlers on her head. Her golden eyes stared at the empty spot next to her. Unbeknownst to her, Odin and Azazel had been ogling her for the past 15 minutes, analyzing every curve that struggled to stay contained within her dress.

"You know how he is, Mokosh," Veles said.

"I guess. I really should've married you instead, Veles," Mokosh said.

The sliding doors swung open violently, revealing a towering red-haired man. His long hair flowed down his back, covering one of his piercing gold eyes. He had a lean, muscular build that could easily be seen through his flowing white robes. His feet were bare yet there were no signs of dirt clinging to his soles. It was as if the Earth did not dare to stain the feet of the man who walked upon it.

His gaze slowly moved to Odin, whom he nodded begrudgingly to, and then to Azazel, whom he regarded with the same regard someone would see a fly. Completely and utterly insignificant. Compared to him, Loki might as well have been a harmless kitten. The power difference between them was simply too vast that it might as well have been incomparable.

Azazel felt an irritated smile threatening to erupt across his face. However, he held it in. This man's arrogance was famous across the world. People almost called him Slavic Indra. But the pressure he exuded was real. It was oppressive, violent, and chaotic like a storm in full. His mere presence ionized the air, causing the lights above to flicker slightly and the winds to pick up outside.

He was, for all intents and purposes, a King of Gods.

Perun.

The Slavic God of Thunder and Warfare. Chief God of the Slavic Pantheon.

And… an Ascendant to boot. The space here feels like it can barely contain his aura and it's not even full… at any rate, it feels like he's trying to project Pleroma here just to prove he can wipe both of us out, Azazel thought.

"Oya, you've finally arrived, Perun-boy," Odin greeted jovially.

"Hmph, I have no reason to properly greet a washed-up Ancient God such as you, Wodan," Perun said, sitting down next to Mokosh.

Odin merely laughed in response. "Ohoho! How Chernobog must weep when she sees how arrogant you've become, Boy." The All-Father's remaining lone eye glowed ominously.

Azazel sighed, feeling the Chief God's aura begin to rise incrementally.

Perun was unfazed by such a display. He extended his arm and pulled her, holding her possessively.

The Mother Goddess looked down meekly while Veles sighed in annoyance.

"It looks like everyone is here, Azazel. Now, let's begin discussing," Veles said.

"What even is there to discuss? The meeting should be held in Vyraj," Perun said.

"I'd like to disagree. I am the only God going there. Not to mention, your Pantheon is one of the most powerful ones out there, along with the Greek, Shinto, and Hindu Pantheons. We do not have any Ascendants of our own," Odin said.

"Odin is right. The meeting shall be held in Asgard," Veles said.

"You'd allow a lesser God to-"

"It's more for posterity than anything. Dictating the terms of where the signing is going to held should go to the one's proposing the treaty. Odin was originally the only ones wanting to sign with the Shintos and the Three Factions. Izanami agreed to have Azazel be her proxy and she agreed to having it in Asgard," Veles said, eyeing his brother dangerously. An orange Crown resembling four horns faintly manifested on his head.

Perun was incensed but kept it down.

Letting loose in Izanami's territory while Veles was here was not a smart move.

"Hmph. Getting pushed around by lesser Gods. It's no wonder you couldn't even save her," Perun said.

Veles clenched his fist and the ground shook violently. An orange-gold flame-like aura appeared around his body.

Azazel and Odin both prepared to summon a barrier.

The pressure in the room skyrocketed and the Chief God was thrown against the wall, pressing him up against it. An incomprehensible sound that defined the entirety of the world, holding everything in it as facets of itself, assailed their ears. The world quaked violently with every step Veles took toward the pinned God.

Perun could not scream. He could not do anything. He was at Veles's complete mercy. Very discordant terror and ideas beyond him were being forced into his ears. If he weren't an Ascendant, his brain would have ruptured from the massive influx of incomprehensible, alien information being forced into his mind and existence.

He knew what it was the moment Veles's Crown manifested. Veles's Boundary, Vlasezhelische. A Boundary that ruled over the ideas of "Harmony" and "Distortion".

Blood began to flow out of his eyes, nose, and mouth.

Veles held him there for a few seconds before releasing him. He took a deep breath to calm himself.

Perun groaned as he slowly got up, wiping the blood from his mouth.

"Kh… Fine, I'll go with you on this one for once. But only because Izanami decreed it. If she's fine with it, then I'll go along with the whims of lesser beings," Perun said begrudgingly.

Veles nodded.

Azazel sighed in relief. Veles didn't cause an international incident but there was no doubt that… the other Great Evils felt it. He could feel their cosmic gazes trained on this location specifically.

"Alright then," Odin said, clapping his hands together. "Rossweisse!"

The Valkyrie Bodyguard, who had been watching the entire exchange with utmost terror in her soul, shakily made her way to Odin.

"Get us some booze! We're going to celebrate the decision of the location of the signing! And make sure you write it down. Perun and Veles are probably going to drink us all under the table," Odin grumbled.

Azazel chuckled.

"W- Where is the meeting to take place, my Lords?" Rossweisse asked.

"The meeting is going to take place at the end of the week. Send a message to the Valkyries and the Einherjar to get Gladsheimr ready! Asgard is going to be expecting some very important guests soon," Odin said.


So the meeting will happen in a few chapters! Oho, we met Veles in full. To explain Veles's Boundary in a way you can understand. Think of the Song of the Ainar from Lord of the Rings or Tonal Architecture from the Elder Scrolls. Until then, the other concepts like "Crown" and "Yesh" will be explained later. Anyways, I've been having ideas and begun drafting the final fic that connects to this fic and my other DxD fic. This is the only time I'll mention it but eventually, I'll put it up. For now, just know it's called DxD - RE:Wind. It's basically the summation of both of Doomsday Option and Azure combined into a single fic yet it's different from the others. For those that don't know or I just never said anything, Azure and Doomsday Option do exist in the same shared cosmos, just different parallel versions of each other. DxD - RE:Wind is the one that will serve to solidify that connection and expand on it, which is why Laws and Boundaries behave similarly (Because they're basically the same thing but with slightly different functions - For those that know the Masadaverse, just think of the difference between a Hadou and Gudou God). Anyway, I'm getting off-track. See ya'll later.
