A/N:
Hi, all thanks for tuning in for another chapter of Heir of Hyoudou, I would like to thank you for all for tuning in over these past five years, as it is getting close to its fifth birthday so for that I would like to say thank you.
So please remember to leave a review, and without further ado let us begin chapter 38.
Closing the blinds in his office the Governor General of the fallen angels proceeded to walk back towards his hardwood desk, which was littered with paperwork. Looking at the piles of paperwork regarding many different event and other matters, he could not help but sigh.
Even before the peace treaty between the three factions there had always been paperwork set up on this desk, with reports from skirmishes with the angels and devils to the acquisition of companies in the human world Azazel had never not been busy. But this, this was ridiculous.
Ever since coming together as one faction the biblical religion had been getting messages from all over the world from different factions to religions to even small sects of other cults reaching out for assorted reasons.
Reasons from peace from factions such as the Norse and the Egyptians, to threats from the Aztecs some of the ancient African religions. Although he did not care much for the threats, as he only saw them idle knowing that the power that the biblical faction now whole again combined posed to this world.
He knew that this was his father's fault, as he was one of only a few gods to ever be the true centre of his faith, accompanying most aspects that other religions would have tens if not hundreds of gods to watch it teach for certain factors of life.
Yes, he always had his angels as his messengers, most famous amongst them his sister Gabriel as she will travel between the realms and religions setting up diplomatic ties with them all to create a peaceful and cohesive world,
This cohesion hat his father had always tried to build was destroy when Lucifer revolted against his father causing a schism to occur within the angels. This schism was further divided again when is Azazel and the rest of these fallen angels broke off from God's teachings as well believing that both God and Lucifer we're on the wrong path.
But this was of little consequence to the Governor General all day years later, from his time as an Angel before transforming into the leader at the fallen angels Azazel's life had always been that of a tumultuous relationship with the world around him.
When he was first created, he always thought that there was something bigger for him in the world then just being another high-class Angel in his father's retinue of countless beings. From this point on he had always began to try and to gain his father's attention through his technological intelligence in an attempt to gain his acceptance by learning how his sacred gear system worked and why only him, one out of many gods around the world created devices that allowed humans to compete alongside mythological beings.
Yes, in his eyes other gods such as the norse and the Greeks had sent their heroes down or had impregnated mortal women with their seeds creating demigods to protect the realm of man. From monsters that lived at the fringes of society, it was solely the God of the Bible that created weapons that was systematically calculated through bloodlines another means to bless certain humans with these gifts.
It always confused him, well he had done this it was somewhat of a failsafe that he had created after the humans had killed Jesus and this was a lot less direct way of connecting what his human followers then a physical form.
Shaking his head and thinking back to what he was currently doing and what the current matters were in front of him the Governor General could only sigh in defeat and the amount of paperwork that he had sitting on his desk.
Placing the events of his past in the back of his mind, Azazel's mind once again split and began to think of Baraqiel and his two daughters. He had always loved his younger brother, even more so after their fall as Baraqiel sat up on the fallen angels' war council since the schism.
Others such as Kokabiel who sat on this council wanted nothing but destruction and war, the level-headed Baraqiel often tempered his brothers' indiscretions citing mostly with matters regarding the entire organisation.
It was this that now confused Azazel more so than ever he knew he had to be there for his brother however although he had mellowed in the past couple of 1000 of years Azazel brass nature often sometimes still got the better of him although, he wished it not to.
Thinking on how he could help his brother, and his current predicament Azazel also began to go through his youngest daughters file trying to see where he was currently up to with breaking the manipulation, so she had gone through after being abducted directly after her mother's death.
Tapping his foot on the ground as he began to run his hands through the small stable upon his chin thinking on what the best way for would be the three of them to move forward amicably and hopefully in the best-case scenario reform as one family unit.
Deep in thought the Governor General was soon interrupted by the sound of a knock on the door causing him to lift his head up looking at the door in question. Calling out for whoever was knocking on the door to enter Azazel was shocked to see his purple haired wife standing there eagerly smiling at the man sitting in the chair.
"What's up pen" Azazel said as he looked towards the secretary of Grigori standing in his doorway.
"Hey not much, just wanted to let you know that the all father is trying to make contact with us saying he requests a meeting with you today" Penemue said Azazel set back in the chair running his hand through his mismatched scalp.
"Odin, that old Geiser just turns up when he wishes to have, has he ever heard of at least sending a message of warning" Azazel said out loud causing the young lady in the doorway to chuckle at his comments.
"Well considering he is the chief deity of his respected religion" Penn said chuckling as she noticed her partner sigh.
"Yeah, but Sirzech has taken de facto leadership of the three factions with Michael and I acting on as a council to show united front to the wider world.
"That may be true and although he is strongest this alongside Beelzebub amongst the leader of the three factions, remember he is young and doesn't have the thousands of years of experience in diplomacy that you and Michael have, perhaps that's why he suggested you join the councils with him the four Satan's" Penn said as she rattled off the names at the controlling bodies over 3 factions since there merger.
"Yes, but why is he seeing me" Azazel said.
"Well, you are both perverts and perhaps he just wants to chat with you seeing that you both have a long relationship with one another" Penn said as she closed the door walking down the hallway Azazel could still hear her chuckling to herself at his current predicament.
"Oh well, this day continues to get more and more interesting I suppose" Azazel said as a magical circle opened within his room.
Unlike normal biblical magical circles, where the circle materialised around the person and or object from the top down somewhat similar to that of a curtain closing. North magical circles open more like a door with each God or goddess having their own individual magical symbol and segment appearing first before the magical door open in a bifold manner allowing the being to walk out of it quite naturally.
Looking and the magical circle in front of him his eyes would tell instantly by its gold colouring the chief deity of the north was here to do business with him causing him to stand up to greet the old Geiser.
"Hello old man" Azazel said as he looked towards Odin who only shook his head at the comment that the younger man made his way.
"Hello is Azazel, how are you hopefully you are not causing too much trouble for that lovely lady of yours, I hope.
"of course, what do you think I am" Azazel said as he looked towards the old man who only chuckled as I made their way towards Azazel's desk.
Sitting down the two men soon began elements of small talk, while sharing a bottle of sake between the two of them. Continuing to talk eventually matters of human politics as well as Odins recent interactions with the current descendants of his own faith in Germany.
"Out of all the beings that I've met in my life, why is it only you that seems to ignore everybody else is desires to stay separate from the humans with you openly visiting them in your true form I might add and partying with them while also showing them the traditions of their ancestors in their worship of you. Azazel said as he took a sip of his drink.
"do you blame me, humans have always interested me. They exist as somewhat of an intersection between the lower level beings and creatures of this world and the magical beings that's it above them such as us Dragons the giants. However, I see them as perhaps the most free of all creatures as they can be themselves within both realms " Odin said as he looked at the Governor General he nodded back but his assumptions.
"Well yes but aren't you scared that they would record you, I know that doesn't bother me per say but others especially those such as Indra look down on the humans there's nothing but tools of worship". Azazel said as he looked at the man
"That brat, Indra although he's powerful, he's stupid he doesn't see the great picture of cohesion between factions let alone his own faction as he still got that gripe with Shiva and the war that he started between the two over who knows what, however the politics of the subcontinent and not why I'm actually here today" Odin said as he looked towards the Governor General and confusedly looked back towards him wondering what the old man needed from him.
"So why are you here" Azazel said as he looked towards I did not he chuckled at him.
"Well I thought seeing a lot of the youth, in particular those in your ward reside in Japan maybe I should make something of a Grand Tour about it seeing the brat while also making contact with the Shinto gods and goddesses is I particularly want to strengthen our relationship in the Far East.
"So why do you need me, apart from issei" Azazel replied as he looked confused and what was going on and was the Norse God would need to be blissful faction to contact the Shinto gods.
"Well, I don't need your help per say as I already have contacts within Kyoto to meet with the Shinto gods and goddesses however is it a crime for me to see how some of my students actually going" Odin said as he looked towards Azazel he chuckled.
"So, the main reason is to tease Issei with his relationships aren't you" Azazel said causing the old guard to chuckle as he played with his long beard.
"Well, I heard that him and Vali are currently a thing as well so there's another thing I can tease as well" Odin said as he looked at his eyes seriously looked at him at the mention of his adopted daughter.
"Oh, relax do you think I and other gods got the shits with you when after your fall when you came crying to call our daughters" Odin said as Azazel smiled at the memories of his younger days trying to find himself after his fall.
Standing up and walking towards the door odin no sooner arrived at the door before the Governor General spoke up causing him to turn back around looking at him.
"While you are in a territory, that is under our control, I will be assigning you a bodyguard seeing that some are not happy about our alliance, I believe it is best if we at least provide you with a guard or two as a show of good faith towards you.
"Oh well if I get to choose, I would like a pretty fallen Angel please" Odin said pervertedly thinking how seductive fallen Angel women could be.
"Baraqueil it is then" Azazel said teasingly aside and looked at him shot.
"What him, he's a man I don't want to set my eyes upon him when I can be looking at a pretty fallen Angel woman all day every day while I'm here" Odin said dropping his cane as he looked towards the fallen Angel.
Scene break.
Walking down the road, alongside his friends the young heir of the Buer clan couldn't imagine a better life for himself, to his left stood his future wife and her best friend happily walking side by side. Enjoying the day without a care in the world as to what could happen next would be just taken within their stride, to is right his right hand woman and queen was happily humming to herself as she continued to bounce her way down the road in an exceedingly positive mood.
Although things had been confusing and rocky with these friends in the past couple of days especially with Murayama after she had kissed him within the training room and running away without saying another word, the group was finally at pace over prosperity with the outside world.
Turning around he could see they the two cat sisters playing with each other, with the older of the two teasing younger one by flicking her white hair around annoying small rook tremendously. Chuckling at the sight in front of him his attention was soon brought to the two knights of his future wife's peerage who both eagerly we're reading two different books appearing to be earlier encyclopaedia about all the different fighting styles and fighting swords around the world where is the Xenoiva was reading one that's somewhat appeared to be more of a novel rather than a historically accurate book.
Shaking his head in disinterest, his attention assumes brought to you that the small blonde bishop he just hummed happily as she continued to toddle behind them,
He always had his special connection with her, and whenever he was in her presence and even Vali had commented on this in some regards. There mood greatly differed when they were within proximity to the young girl.
however, this was not the reason his attention was now drawn to her now. It was not long ago that he and the rest of the group thought that they had lost her forever when she disappeared within the throne room after the rating game against Diodora.
Thinking back two all transpired afterwards a large black void soon filled his head it is where the memory of what happened should be had been removed by his own mental blockers about the trauma that he had gone through to beat the descendant of Beelzebub. Smiling to himself and wrapping his arms around his queen, the group continued to walk towards the house happily and what was going on.
Looking over at the Raven-haired queen of his future wife Issei noticed that she was as cheerful and happy at where she was currently in life. He had known that the reemergence of her sister is perhaps the best thing that could happen to her. But this was something that the group thought that she would take longer to get over then she did, however the meeting with her father seemed to have gone well. Well, enough she seem to not worry about it anymore.
Scene break
Running the towel under his arm of yellow singlet that he was wearing Issei proceeded to wipe off any excess water that he missed after his shower that he had just taken, Throwing the towel over his neck and holding the two ends of it.
Beginning walking down the hallway towards his bedroom, he began to think about what he could watch on TV before going to bed at a late hour, walking past the study he noticed that the door was slightly cracked open with light emanating out of it.
"Strange" Issei thought to himself stopping to look at the door.
The study had been put into the house after its renovation, however it use was surprisingly low as a group preferred to study together. Due to this the study had become more akin to that of a library with books on diverse topics both human and supernatural accumulating on its shelves gathering dust.
This never really bothered him as he knew that one day someone would end up reading all these books, due to their extended life span as devils however, he wondered if it would be in 10, 100 or 1000-years time.
Walking towards the door and opening Issei was soon met but the familiar figure if his silver haired queen sitting at the desk with book in hand. Since they had come into the human world Vali had tried varying hair styles when she was at home with her favourite ones she wore out in public.
Looking at her now Issei noticed that her hair was tied up in a ponytail behind her head with two bangs framing her face pefectly. Walking over to her he notice that she was still wearing the school uniform, however she had left the modest overcoat and school shoes downstairs as she wished to be more comfortable in her home.
Getting a closer look at her Issei noticed she had undone the top two buttons revealing an impressive amount of cleavage, getting closer Issei began to blush at the site of it. Looking at the book that she was reading Issei noticed that she had one of the many archaeological books that she had brought on their travels
Perplexed at this current interest on the archaeological world Issei repositioned himself to sit on the desk facing her in attempt to get her attention. Sitting there as she continued to read a few more pages Vali averted her eyes from her book to her king before her eyes averted back to the page that she was currently reading.
"Hi Ise, what's up" She said somewhat uninterested in the conversation that was going to be had between the two favouring the book more.
"Not much I just wanted to know why you're currently so interested in history" Issei said as Vali closed the book placing it at the top corner of the desk before facing king.
Facing the brown hair boy that sat on the desk, the what dress shirt that she wore struggled to stay together as her bust was pushing out. Smiling she quickly stood up giving him a kiss on the cheek before sitting back down.
"Well, the truth is I've always loved history it's just something that my mother and I always did together" Vali said as she looked towards him as he smiled back towards her listening intently and what she was saying.
"Once my mother was removed from my life I kind of began to hide the fact that something could give me so much joy, that's why the past couple months I really enjoyed going to the history classes ,to be completely honest I think I wish to study history at university to become a historian or archaeologist" Vali said as she continued telling the young man sitting in front of her.
"Well, I couldn't be happier for you darling, and I imagine made you mother proud, Issei said as he looked towards his queen with a smile across his face.
Walking towards the endless books on the bookshelf within the room young the young king began analysing the menagerie of books that set up on its shelves. From books regarding human anatomy to those regarding human history and human fiction that was genre books for at least a single occupant of the house to enjoy.
Smiling as he turned around to Vali, he noticed that the young queen's attention was directly back into her archaeological books ignoring the fact that he was even still in the room with her. Seeing this as his sign to leave Issei soon closed the door behind him before walking back down the hallway wondering what he would do now the everybody seemed busy.
Scene break
Sitting in her chair in her office in the old school building of Kuoh Academy, Rias continue to play with the frame of her glasses as she began to flick through multiple contract phone clients and potential new contracts that have been distributed by her familiars.
Hitting the stack with papers on the end so that they are all neatly and uniformly lined up with one another the young redhead began to go through another step as she continued to hear slight snapping sorry by chewing in the corner of the room.
Ever since that she had adopted her Koneko would often sit with her not saying a word just eating her snacks, but she had brought with her in allowance more recently what Issei had brought her.
Although she had got her sister back, this still did not change the fact, but she felt most comfortable with the presence of her king even if the two we are just sitting here not talking with one doing work and one eating snacks.
Looking up at her she noticed that she appeared to have some chocolate covered sticks in her hand, but she was cutely eating, which although Rias knew of her true nature for those who didn't it would reminisce to them something similar to that of a cat gently eating snacks given to it by its owner.
Noticing another stack of magical papers appear on her desk Rias was shocked when she noticed the Grigori symbol sitting in the top left-hand corner of the paper left. This was strange for her often all Grigori information was given to her by Azazel himself when she saw him however this one appeared to go through official channels, she noticed the name of their secretary at the top.
Using this is an opportunity the young king began flicking through the paper work trying to understand what was so important that was coming up that she needed to get official documentation regarding it.
