Extra Epilogue
The True Meaning Behind Family
A pair of magenta colored eyes glanced impassively at the interaction in the private offices of the Satans, a slim athletic man with the height of 177cm dressed in a pair of black cargo pants, white/red/black sneakers, a white polo shirt with black/gold accents and above his attire a black high-collared coat with its height ended in the heels of his foot. On his right hand´s pinky finger, a signet ring with the official seal of the Agares family, a silver-colored signet ring with the seal of the lucifer family on his right hand´s index finger, on the left hand´s pinky finger another signet ring with the official seal of the Leviathan family and in the index finger a silver band ring with copper center and golden tribal inscriptions on it.
A pair of golden round-rimmed glasses framed his face.
The figure at the moment had its arms crossed and glanced at the meeting between Serafall Leviathan, Sirechs Lucifer and Lord Bael, the main function of the Agares Family is to always work as moderator between any negotiations the Great King Family has with the main authorities, this was the medullary dedication the Agares Family has, and he has learned well from his father Alphonse Agares; when Serafall and Sirzechs took their authority names, they allowed him to maintain his names and titles which were given to him by right of blood.
"You can´t be serious about this, a meeting with the Angels and Fallen Angels. Are you getting crazy!?"
Lord Bael declared outrageously getting up and slamming his palms on the desk, at this he sharpened his gaze at the man whom was surrounded by a barrier, his movement restricted only by a slight margin.
"I would consider discretion, Lord Bael."
At this the man huffed and sat back down, the barrier removed and feeling less restricted in his movement, at this Serafall winked at the young Agares whom blushed and turned to the floor in bashful shyness.
"As I was saying in the meeting with all the families, my sister and Serafall´s were attacked by Kokabiel and thus our primary need is to have a meeting with the other factions and try to locate the problem."
Sirzechs stated firmly to Lord Bael whom although spoke rather anxious, whom would not after all, their leader was baring out their faction to the enemies it was only normal for them to react in such an hostile way.
"You must both understand that I merely speak for one of the sides of Devildom my Lords, we don´t wish for…unadequate circumstances to happen after all."
The man stated to both rulers whom nodded and Lord Agares spoke forward with determination.
"Lord Lucifer, Lady Leviathan."
The Magenta-Eyed male with glasses bowed before both whom clearly waved their hands up before he even bowed, he was well respected by the New and Old Generation alike, the prodigy of the civil war and the only Old-Satan Blooded Devil to still be loyal to the rebellious cause, in the Novellized Love-Story of Sirzechs and Grayfia he was one of the most important Secondary Characters whom appeared almost as regularly as the main characters.
Ferdinand Agares Lucifer, The Snake Prince and one of the most idolized Devil Icons of nowadays; his title just as legendary as Diehauser Belial´s which is ´King of Games´. The Agares Heir hasn´t had the chance yet to participate on Rating Games since his peerage, although being given one of the first five protypes that Ajuka Astaroth made, he has yet to have even a Queen, even though he already has prospects, he doesn´t has the guts to ask yet.
He´s just that shy and hesitant.
"If you permit me, I would like to bring a third-party into this meeting as Mediator to assure that no issues or unjust actions are committed."
Sirzechs Gremory glanced at his foster son, so grown and so mature, wearing his spiky green-tinted blonde hair and magenta colored eyes intensely gazing through those glasses, he of course smiled kindly to him, he believed in his talents taught by ´The Conciliator´ his honored father whom now is mostly a retired man, after marrying once again and birthing a girl whose the young half-sister of Ferdinand, Seekvaira Agares, Lord Agares of course doted on him and so did Ferdinand; perhaps the elder brother had a more moderative approach than the biased one of his father.
To Seekvaira of course her elder brother is her hero and adoration and many times has she been trying to be at his footsteps; the girl grew out to love swords and Mechas, and progressively learns whenever the male is not occupied with other affairs.
"You don´t need to bow Ferdinand-kun, you´re my Foster Son and I believe in your judgment."
At this Lord Bael perhaps repressed a snort, so much for a mediator, he´s heavily biased towards the four main authorities, then again Lord Bael cannot take the boy away from some good plays, the boy is rather unbiased when he points up faults that the Four Great Satans do while also he has reprimanded him quite sometimes, him an adult. The boy´s so-so, although it would be interesting to see his debut in Rating Games, so far the authorities have grown lax into putting him there but Alphonse and even the other families have finally given him a ultimatum, Use your Pieces or hand them over.
He announced he was ready to use his pieces and many of course offered for a tryout, in the end to be merciful perhaps Sirzechs Lucifer offered himself as a tryout for the male in his debut in rating games, an unofficial game, that would be scheduled immediately.
"Then this would be all. The meeting between the three factions will be scheduled today at night, I would advise your third party to be there Ferdinand."
The Agares Heir bowed in acknowledgement and Serafall whom was readily to greet the male whom gave a step back and disappeared in a magical teleportation circle, things were coming on swiftly.
.
Kyoto, Japan
Alphonse Agares was a very respected man in all the factions, including the Kyoto Youkai Faction, after being able to tranquilize the other races after the Oni-Rebellion sparked by an unknown third party, by the end of the deals with the other races The Conciliator advised to put the Kyubi on leadership and thus have been a stable government of the Youkai peacefully, the Lord of the Foxes although died early, but expressed in his last will the desire for his daughter Yasaka to pair up with Alphonse Agares´s son as a gesture of goodwill to The Conciliator´s interference in the whole affair.
A magical circle appeared and a green-tinted blonde haired man approached to a Shinto Temple, a brief breeze of wind passing through he combed his hair slightly and in there just contemplating the beautiful scenery a blonde haired woman dressed in shrine-priestess outfit and blonde eyes turned around and her lips curved upwards in a light smile, Yasaka was a desired woman, no denying it. The Agares heir felt lucky for having her in his life, during his crisis after saving Serafall from the clutches of death, a day after he woke up she came forth to the Agares Family Household with the news of her father´s death and wishes, his father a respectful man of course abided, to the dislike of Shamsiel, whom he managed to calm before his father did something rash.
In the end Shamsiel, Yasaka and Serafall have been an active constant in his life and soon though Mae and Ariette came much more afterwards, years later, and many would perhaps be surprised at the fact that the Agares Clan Leader has no wife yet and no children even with many women in his life surrounding him, but the truth is that he cannot help but just enjoy each of them, their sparks and their personality.
"How did your meeting went?"
She asked to him rather curiously, he chuckled and stepped forward and turned around to meet the peacefulness of Kyoto´s forest, the very natural energy of this place was relaxing.
"It went well. How is Kunou?"
He asked to Yasaka whom nodded and closed her eyes while doing such gesture, daintily and gently, never loosing any of her class for it.
"She´s well, though…it wouldn´t be bad if you tell her who you really are to her."
The woman stated as he closed his eyes and turned around to glance into the intense golden eyes of the Kyubi of Kyoto, the leader of her faction, when her father died she had the threat of other races usurping her place, for her to preserve her father´s throne she needed to have a son or to show signs of pregnancy, of course this happening much later, to secure her reign. And thus, one day she came and asked him for that favor…they never married or anything but yet he of course aided her.
Since then, people have believed the woman to be a mother whose husband left her or just something on the lines, which due to her not wearing a ring meant her as open business for other people to court her, he feared perhaps each time she´s asked by other more stable people, but she just blatantly denies each and every one.
In a way he´s relieved yet also mildly scared.
He vainly tries to believe she´s faithful to him, yet also he´s a pessimistic realist that always keeps the thought that another more stable man in the Youkai Faction can easily sway Yasaka off her feet and march away with her daughter to another man´s abode, and that isn´t that far fetched, since many other Kitsune Youkai have courted Yasaka and many have seen her openly conversing with others, even though he wish to kills them, he has been taught enough by his father to not be a loveable idiot and shame his family´s name.
Duty is the Death of Love and sometimes, duty is more important than self-desires, it is hard for devils not to indulge in their desires…to know when to hold-back is only a few devils have mastered though in the end, everybody falls eventually.
"Uncle Ferdinand."
His heart beat fast in nervousness and also happiness, running from the inside of the shrine to the outside patio a young blonde haired girl rushed to embrace her uncle, it wasn´t new to the girl that Ferdinand Agares was a constant visitor of Yasaka´s temple, Kunou loves her Uncle since it´s perhaps the only stable family member she had, after all Yasaka didn´t had any brothers and her father Kurama died, leaving her alone. In a way perhaps Yasaka also clung to Ferdinand due to the absence of family, and when Kunou was born a dedicated loveable mother was blossomed, and also a very passionate heated lover alongside it.
"Kunou-chan!"
He chuckled and played with her hair and patted it lightly, she wore like her mother a shrine priestess outfit, nothing too dainty and just right like her mother does.
"Why don´t you go inside and help in the Kitchen Kunou, Mamma has to speak about serious things with Uncle Ferdinand over some tea."
She commented lightly to which the girl clapped and jumped energized.
"Yay! I´ll go."
She spoke happily and rushed to the house once more, each day she grows and makes him more conscious of the fact that even though he was there, he wasn´t enough. In his last life he didn´t had the joys of having a family and in this one, he perhaps has failed. And he ahs never told anyone of his origin, at least…not to everyone.
"I never managed to have a family in my last life."
He commented already misty-eyed as Yasaka turned towards him in attention, her nine tails swaying passively and her ears twitching at a certain pattern hearing all sounds. He though breathed deeply and calmly as he glanced around, both slowly treading towards the inside of the shrine, her by his side as he continued to walk.
"I stared at my friends making their futures, In a way I was their ´Rad Uncle´ ·chuckle·."
He stopped and chuckled lightly, remembering his best-friends whom were like a second family to him, God their lives were filled with grace, unlike his which slowly plunged into monotony and unhappiness.
"Whom would´ve thought that the woman I would´ve made a family with was the hottest woman on all the supernatural world, then again…can´t help but to feel I failed as a family man also."
Zero lies and pure honesty were spoken from his lips as he sighed and glanced upwards, he was there the moment Yasaka gave birth and at the same time the Underworld was under attack by the leftovers of the old Faction, he always tried to fulfill his duties as an Agares Clan Heir and War-Hero of Devils and at the same time be the nearest he can to the stable family he has formed or that he tried to form at least.
His daughter was born and she had vibrant golden spiky blonde hair and light coral colored eyes glowering with power, in her veins ran the innate blood of the Kyubi Youkai yet also the devil blood of Agares, Lucifer and Leviathan; a very powerful girl. Light Coral is a pinkish color of eyes, a trait characteristic of only one family of supernatural creatures, the Agares and from there people would make conclusions, and he had enemies. Enemies inside the New and Old Satan faction would give anything to get back at the Snake Prince for what he has done to them.
He stayed at a careful distance, always making sure for nobody to see him visit Yasaka except himself and trust associates of the woman, where he always was there for Kunou and tried to give her a good upbringing, making sure Yasaka and Kunou never lacked anything whenever they wanted wardrobe or just accessories for their housing arrangements, he made sure to have Yasaka linked with a secret account of the Agares Family to spend on whatever she desired and not to be traced by anyone not even his father.
He felt a hand grip his with firmness and he glanced around to Yasaka´s visage.
"I don´t regret making this man the father in my family."
She commented standing now at his front and pressed her full body to his, embracing him as he did so her…feeling her full breasts on his chest, as his hands settled and rested on her butt-cheeks lazily. Kissing him passionately he answered with equal feelings.
.
Yasaka P.O.V.
I´ve known him for years, and out of allothers he trusted me with everything he is. After our ´productive´ first time he came forth with his truth and I accepted him even then, when my pregnancy was known he personally took care of me, always looking after me and Kunou´s health during my pregnancy, he was so kind and considerate, good with advice. Eventually my pregnancy which were the most defining years of my life he was there in every step of the way, funny moments I keep always photos of them, mementos of our moments together.
He even got our little Kunou to hear Classical Mozart Music channeled to my womb, something about her turning more intelligent.
When Kunou was born entered parenting and he was there and since then has been Uncle Ferdinand when in fact its Father, he was a straight man and never ever dared to speak badly about anyone. He always spoke to me his rambling about Duty, that sometimes even Duty oversteps to Love…yet Family is the most primordial of Duties. He´s always a anxious and stressed Workaholic, tries to make everything to the utmost perfection believing we all have expectations of him, yet again he´s a child of the Devil Civil War whom was regarded as Prodigy and has had eyes on him since he was even born.
I didn´t expected anything of him and yet he swept me off my feet; he listened to me when I spoke, he gave advice and opinion over the situations I faced, his points of view sometimes too neutral but nonetheless useful. I can trust him and I know he trusts me, and of course my heart goes out to him.
My lips were on his yet and my body pressed on him, my mating season is already here…I can already feel my body heating and the need to mate. For years he has always aided me in my mating seasons, of course I allowed him to use his artisan brush with ink with his blood on it to place runes on my body, as a healing magic expert and also and advanced in the art of runes, he tattooed my hips, private parts and pubis with complex symbols which work as contraceptives to prevent pregnancy, after Kunou I wanted to dedicate to my daughter fully and he agreed willingly to me.
In the border of my pubis and low-abdomen an amethyst colored heart was tattooed and inside the heart was an artistic tattoo of a combination between the Agares Clan Seal and the head of a fox, it was his work of art on me and i try to maintain it hidden for no one to see it, perhaps out of shyness more than anything, I would easily use low-hip pants and exposed low-riff blouses to blatantly show that work of art, I won´t be ashamed to portray his claim on me.
I feel light and slightly dazed as he glanced at me with those beautiful magenta eyes which are mystifying and have caught my attention.
My dear husband.
I can feel his hands gently cupping my ass, I press my body to him and my arms rest around his neck, resting my forehead on his chest he kissed my head.
.
Minutes Later
Kunou was asleep already, and Yasaka lay naked atop him, her bountiful and big chest resting atop his as his hands drew circles on her lower back.
"I need you to do me a favor Yasaka."
He asked to the female whom rose her head and rested her chin on his chest.
"What is it?"
She asked with interest and Ferdinand knew it was better to speak it out than to do anything else.
"I want you to mediate a meeting between Azazel, Michael and Sirzechs."
She widened her eyes and gasped, Yasaka knew them, they were both of course a generation older than her, for her to mediate a meeting between them was something else, a big responsibility.
"Originally Sirzechs asked me to be the moderator between them but, even I know that I could be heavily biased in favor of devildom. It is a fairer to put a third party faction not related to them but to the territory in that meeting."
Yasaka saw the reason behind it and the logic, a devil cannot be a good moderator between a meeting of the three great factions, even if that was allowed back in the Great War, the same formula cannot be used twice, it leads to dullness and also many questioning the credibility of the intentions.
"You know how I am Ferdinand, I don´t think I could do that."
He shook his head and his right hand snaked and took a hold of hers, intertwining their fingers he closed his eyes, hard times were coming and it would be better for Yasaka and Kunou to go along with him.
"I believe in you Yasaka, you´re a great leader to the Yokai faction and I know you´ll wear your title fittingly."
Yasaka shyly nodded as he kissed her hand, time passed after she bathed and started to wear her shrine priestess outfit as she combed her hair, as he stood leaning to a wall dressed in a white loose bathrobe and smile at her, after they both had a steamy bath she combed her hair and started to arrange it properly. He placed on the stand a slip of paper and atop it a ring, it wasn´t a wedding band but rather a signet ring with the Agares Family Official Seal.
"The slip of paper is for you to teleport yourself to the place where the authorities will meet and the ring, wear it on your left pinky."
Shyly nodding, Yasaka was new to the devil society and to the forms and symbols that the three great factions used, her family was more of a traditional Japanese setting than a European one like Ferdinand´s. Rising up from her seat she grappled the slip of paper and glanced at it critically, not knowing how to feel about such an affair.
Wearing the ring how the man asked her to, he spoke to her with a smile giving her a chaste kiss beforehand.
"I´ll stay here with Kunou-chan until you return."
With a nod, the female took the slip of paper and disappeared.
.
Kuoh Academy
Hours Later
On a round table on three different places the three authorities of the three factions were sitting, all of them were straightened and ready to discuss their business, but an unexpected party arrived, the proprietors originally of the Japanese Region, Yasaka the Kyubi of Kyoto in all her grace appeared, and stood straightly and sternly in the middle of all three parties, the three chairs looking towards her, the matters were serious.
"And that concludes my information."
Sona Sitri the young sister of Serafall Leviathan commented, the latter whom thanked her sister for the honesty, soon though Yasaka interfered before anybody could.
"To abide protocol, may the Leader of the Fallen Angels explain his underling´s reasoning for this attack."
Azazel whom was boringly leaning his chin on his hand, he spoke rather focusedly.
"Kokabiel did most of this by himself, it was his own undoing though. He´s been assured, though I want to speak about other matters if I can though, once again it´s not between us The Great THree."
The black haired man explained but Yasaka won´t bide to the man´s wishes, she´s experienced with treating with fallen angels, their race was almost the end of hers, for that reason she was biased against them in a certain sense, and thus won´t easily budge to Azazel in that sense.
"Once again I would ask the Governor of the Grigori to stick with the purposes of this meeting, no other matters shall be spoken except the attempt of Fallen Angel Cadre Kokabiel to wage war against the other supernatural powers through the use of the Excalibur blades and destroy an innocent Japanese City in the territory I convened the Devils to take under certain clauses. Any other subject aside from this topic, shall be spoken on another meeting."
Yasaka stated still standing straightly, even Sirzechs was surprised by the party member that arrived as a favor for Ferdinand Agares, even more surprised was the Crimson Satan to see the sheer dominative and solemnity she expresses throughout the negotiations, Ferdinand was wise to put an external power in the negotiation of the big three, even more related to this territory naturally, that way Azazel and Michael took her serious and so did they, a clever play.
After Michael was given the chance to speak he interjected and spoke about the event.
"I never realized there would be powers that wouldn´t like the state we were now at."
At this Sirechs answered with a court nod and another reply.
"It was only expected for certain individuals to not like what we have now."
At this Azazel though once again spoke rather boringly.
"Spare me the animousity and let´s make peace. After all, that´s what we´re here for isn´t it?"
He stated earning multiple gasps at the boldness of his claims, all while Yasaka frowned, Azazel was a good adulator, but that was not the purpose of this meeting, but peace between the three factions could aid hers also. As the conversations went on, Yasaka half-lidded her eyes and sensed a strange signature using magic, about to be using it big, something is about to happen here and she was going to now be in the fray of it.
´What have I gotten myself into?´
Yasaka thought, usually at the middle of it all a big heated argument started between someone and Azazel and she frowned, about to call forth the order on the place, this time everybody felt it, a big magical signature. A big spell was done and everybody was stopped, except for her.
"Time has stopped."
The brown haired young man stated and she bit her lip, glancing at the magical Aura of power that emitted from her ring on her pinky finger.
"Usually those with superior power are not affected."
The Crimson Satan spoke in a matter-of-factly as the Kyubi Of Kyoto once again realized that her magical power wasn´t that big but the ring aided her.
"And of course our dragons. Those ever there are using holy swords…And that woman…"
He spoke and focused on the ring she wore and the silver haired male widened his eyes at finally feeling the magical power in it, it was a magical power that was similar and yet different from…him.
"Where did you obtain that ring?"
Vali Lucifer asked to Yasaka as everyone´s gaze was upon her, all the leaders lied their eyes to her which she was blushing awkwardly and spoke straightened.
"My possessions is not a matter that is on the competence of this meeting."
The female commented sternly to audience, obviously the ring she possesses has some of the embodiment of time power of the Agares that gives them time manipulation, the ring of course would neglect any other powers, as everyone started to speak a situation about one of the evil pieces of Sirzechs´s young sister having a time-stopping sacred gear, the girl was of course forward with desiring to save her piece from being trapped, such were matters that were already done in this blotched meeting, obviously her husband didn´t expected this to happen, but he´s taking care of Kunou right now, so, it´ll be left on her hands.
Her right hand fiddled with the ring on her left hand´s pinky finger, rotating it around its axis, this energy felt familiar and the silver haired boy, had a similar shade of hair as her husband´s mother her mother-in-law whom died in the Devil Civil War. Watching him use magic she whispered.
"…Lucifer…"
And everyone turned around to meet her, at this Azazel´s lips twitched upwards, of course she knew about the Lucifer, after all she was summoned here by the last pure-blooded one of their lineage, Ferdinand.
Soon a magical circle appeared.
"Well, it isn´t the Unworthy Devil King´s Mister ´Zechs and little miss Serafall."
A light brown haired woman arrived and she widened her eyes, she knew the magic well, from her ring soon a portal appeared and a gigantic Sea Serpent shot forward. Katerea Leviathan summoned her Staff and created a magical defense as everyone glanced at the sea monster attacking.
"HOW DARE YOU USE MY FAMILY´S CREATURES!"
Katerea Spoke rather angered as the sea Serpent Instead glared at her.
"You´re not a pure-blooded Leviathan member, you are a dirty-blooded branch member. Even if you desire the Sea Serpent of the End, our alst user Ferdinand is our vanguard alongside the King Fly of the Original Beelzebub. My name is Sargatos and I served Lord Ferdinand´s Mother."
Many eyes widened, this gigantic dark purple/dark aqua colored Sea Serpent is the legendary Serpent Sargatos of the Devil Civil War that drowned many devils in the frontlines, now it´s on the side of good, apparently.
"So, my Older Cousin´s son is still with the unworthy Kings. He might have the blood but he´s unworthy of the things handed to him. They are ours!"
She commented out loud and the Sea Serpent glared at the woman and still hissed.
"I defended the House of Representatives alongside my Daughter Ariette that day when those traitorous men chose to kill innocent civilians, and I was there were we had to drown goethia in a glob of water to prevent you from killing civilians, where Master Ferdinand christened himself as The Underworld´s Water King. The Master was right, you lost your rights to the throne the moment you chose to follow Rizevim, and you have lost the chance for the throne again with this reckless show against what is a precedent moment for the three factions."
The Sea Snake commented to Katerea whom rose her wand and channeled her magic the snake though without any hesitance immediately cailed all around the authorities of the room as everything exploded.
.
Yasaka P.O.V.
Only you could do this?
Even when you´re not here you find ways to protect me, my dear husband.
At the moment all of us were breathing normally, all of us were now in a protective globe of water hovering in the air, on the very edge and akin to swimming fast two Sea Snake Monsters of the Leviathan Family, one of them Sargatos and the other Ariette, I know them both well since when my daughter was little my husband would bring them forth in shrunken height for my daughter to play with both of them, they were kind and I knew them near.
I don´t know exactly bout the King Flies that Sargatos spoke about but i´m sure that they are also creatures my husband uses for fighting.
"And once again I´m appaled and abhorred at the fact that the Grandson of the Original Lucifer and Leviathan of Pureblood is aiding our natural enemies rather than her siblings."
Katerea Leviathan glanced at two Sea Snakes and a blonde haired Kyubi Youkai using master-level powers of the Sea Serpent of the End which gives lordship over all the waters in all its states, this Youkai, how is she using such masterful level of powers, she glanced as the glob of water started to dissolve itself and turn into mist, but this mist was thicker, so thicker that…she widened her eyes.
"CLOSE YOUR MOUTHS!"
She shouted, she knew this technique, the venom glands of the snakes which have liquified water vaporify with the water particles, which turn into thick vapor which adheres itself to the respiratory system, alongside the vapor is the concentrated vaporized venom which its color is almost untraceable even by magic, a deadly technique that the Original Lady Leviathan used in the Great War to kill many high-ranked angels and get out of places.
The magicians though weren´t so lucky, all of them started to inhale the venom and descend to the surface like dead flies.
I was still at a loss until I felt a cloud-like structure adhered to my face, the misty terrain was heavy in it, but a barrier around us apparently permitted me to see Sirzechs Gremory the Crimson Satan, Serafall Leviathan, the younglings whom were alongside them, Michael his protégé and Azazel. The two male devils and even the angels were glancing at me as I had my outstretched hand, at this one of the Sea Snakes hissed, it was Ariette.
"W-what´s happening?"
I asked still oblivious to everything and yet marveled, as I started to produce blue Fox Fire to start my counters Ariette approached and hissed at me.
"Use the Ring´s power…imagine having lordship over water and time, that with your mind you can rule the world…no limits. The rings lend you his powers…"
I widened my eyes, my husband has managed to lend me his powers through this ring akin to a connection, I closed my eyes and brought my left hand to my face, kissing the ring and instead of the fox fire I pictured myself manipulating the water in the very air.
"As Moderator of this meeting, I shall take care of the threats that dare to interrupt it. Also, Katerea Leviathan´s fate falls under the jurisdiction of Ferdinand Agares Lucifer´s responsibility and since I represent him, I´ll handle it."
I spoke feeling confident, with my husband with me nothing will ever defeat me raising my arm forward, the mist was simply dispelled immediately, and we were received with a field filled with the death bodies of choked poisoned magicians whom all were already dead, the only one left alive was Katerea Leviathan whom was now murderously glaring at us.
"You, y-you…HOW!? Kitsune Youkai aren´t supposed to have Sea Serpent of the End´s manipulation over water."
Katerea stated but I didn´t cared, right now I knew something, peace between the three factions is real and if such a thing could happen then the minor factions will also have peace in the long run. It was a time for change, for the sake of my little Kunou and our family i´ll do so.
Indirectly this woman has threatened my family, my daughter is a Devil whom on her father´s side is an Agares whom aids the new reign and also my husband whom has sacrificed many things for this side.
I rose my left arm and glared at her, she was about to raise an eyebrow before she widened her eyes and tried to breathe but she couldn´t kneeling down as her fingers started to take a purple hue of hypoxia.
.
Sirzechs and Serafall knew this technique, it was one of the classics that Ferdinand used with his Sea Serpent of the End bloodline, not particularly a merciful technique, it fills the body´s lungs completely with water, simply ceasing the transmission of air throughout the body and with such a fast speed simply cutting effectively the body´s supply of oxygen, a technique that was crafted by him to use on cruel enemies or on those he wanted to have a painful death.
"Ack…·gag· ·gargle· ·Cough· ·Groan·."
Katerea started to claw her neck in desperation trying to suck in air, all while the Holy-Sword Users turned away and even Michael had to do so, until the woman simply fell to her death face-first, soon from her nose and mouth water and blood started to come out.
"It´s done."
Yasaka commented turning around and a big explosion echoed, someone attacked Azazel, the white dragon emperor.
"So must I be surprised about this Vali?"
The fallen angel Governor asked and the male revealed himself as Vali Lucifer one of the original descendants of the Devil King Lucifer, of the Old Satan Faction. At this Yasaka though mirthfully and politely even chuckled, everyone even the white dragon emperor turned around.
"I must plea you to check and update your information young Hakuryuukou, for already more than one to two centuries, the status of your father´s lineage has been reduced to nigh-bastardry. After your grandfather and grandaunt´s betrayal, it was your Uncle Ferdinand Agares Lucifer, Grandson of Devil King Lucifer and Lady Leviathan and son of Tsufaame Tereaku Lucifer Leviathan whom managed to recover at least some of the leftover honor to the nigh-deceased household of Lucifer."
At this everyone widened their eyes and turned around to meet the blonde haired Kyubi Youkai whom finally out of everyone Serafall spoke out.
"And how do you know about that!?"
She stated out to the blonde haired woman as she spoke rather politely.
"Ferdinand is the father of my daughter Kunou. And he doesn´t holds you on account for your Grandfather´s crimes, which should I say were the following; Asking for the execution of Sirzechs Gremory, Zeoticus Gremory and Lord Bael with also the attempt to marry Lady Venelana Gremory nee Bael; for the sake of birthing a Lucifer Heir. Which in the long run brought out the Devil Civil War your Uncle Ferdinand Agares Lucifer was forced to fight at only Six Years old under the pseudonym of ´The Snake Prince´."
The Blonde Haired woman chided politely and calmly to the young man whom exposed his helmet and glared at the woman and then at the others, he…he wasn´t aware he had a family aside from his parents and his cruel grandfather whom killed his father without any much thought, he was about to snarl at the woman but Leviathan confirmed it.
"I´m sure Ferdinand will offer you kinship Vali Lucifer, to you and any of your associates. You´re after all his grandnephew and family must stay joined in these hard times. Please, consider this…he lost a mother to the Devil Civil War, with both Grayfia Lucifudge and Sirzechs Gremory as witnesses."
At this many turned to the Silver Haired female and the Red-haired man whose faced got clouded with regret, mostly the red haired man´s whom closed his eyes.
"As a young leader of the Devil Civil War I committed many mistakes, when I rose Ferdinand as my foster child with young adult rush I offered him to come with me to the frontlines or stay at home, he chose to go with me to the frontlines at Age six…I took away any leftover childhood he could´ve had and by the time he was thirteen…when I saved my wife grayfia from captivity on your Grandfather´s state, there was your Grandaunt Tsufaame, whom in her grief-filled insanity threatened to murder her son."
At this Vali turned away, having mixed feelings and a very similar experience with his Grandfather and Father, although with a much different context.
"How do I know you´re not lying?"
Vali Lucifer asked to them as the blonde haired woman instead nodded and spoke solemnly.
"You can ask my husband yourself, he´s at the moment in Kyoto."
At this the male flew down to the surface and approached, many were still on edge but others perhaps but to Yasaka it wasn´t.
"Mou! I was supposed to have Fer-chan´s Baby first!"
Everyone turned around to meet Serafall rushing to at the front of Yasaka, protesting at her while Vali rose an eyebrow, while the blonde haired woman stayed there in surprise.
"MOU! I´m going to destroy Kyoto for this! And I´ll take my dear Fer-chan back with me and have babies!"
She commented and Yasaka stood before Serafall, she had a passive smile and chuckled, all while her aura was soon shrouded in light blue fox fire, all while Serafall stood very straightened and her aura instead emitted white mist as the floor under both was now covered in a thin sheen of ice.

Serafall P.O.V.
I should´ve been more forward throughout these years, yes with my job i´ve been stressed and heavily occupied, but still my affection for Ferdinand hasn´t gone away since during the therapy, he gave his life for me and it was only fair that I now live all my life for him, I love him and it won´t ever change.
But, now at my front is a woman whom apparently has birthed him a child.
Children.
In my head I never thought about it then I was always aware that Lord Agares wanted to have future heirs to the family, now that apparently this woman has freely given herself to do so…I´ve fallen behind. And I felt bad, couldn´t have his first time and didn´t had his first son, then I grow firm.
That doesn´t mean I didn´t achieved anything, I was the one that brought him up when his world was down a long ago, and I continued to be doing so, we worked so well on certain Miracle Levi-Tan Episodes, he was so courageous and romantic.
My heart throbs.
Anyway, I won´t give away my Fer-chan so easily, he´s mine and I don´t care if this woman birthed him, I´ll take him back with me to the underworld.
And I have realized it.
I want children too and I want them to be his.
Why not do it now?

Yasaka P.O.V.
The Father of my Daughter has told me all about his life, including the loves he has; he told me of his childhood and his first love Shamsiel whom is at home and each and every day shares his bed, and both have sex at least once or twice a week, three to four at times when he feels peckish or she does. She´s been there for him since his childhood and is his succubus assistant, I didn´t intend to draw him away.
Then there´s Mae Lucifudge, a woman his mother tortured and that bounded her to him under an ancient devil mating mark using his placenta blood, yes that twisted. She´s his personal maid and they have sex only twice to three times a week or weekends, he bonded with her after giving her empathy and asking for her aid during his therapies.
And Ariette who's his assigned companion snake, she´s mostly just in her snake form around him or wherever he needs her to be, never leaves his side.
And Serafall Leviathan, formerly Sitri and his superior during the devil civil war. The female went through some abrupt change during the transition since she almost died and he revived her almost giving his life away in the process, he of course survived with minor to none sequelae, however he acknowledged that the feelings were there. He got near her and she got near him but they never formalized anything, she of course still expressed affection and possessiveness over her ´Dear Kouhai-kun Fer-chan´ and didn´t wanted other women around him.
In truth, I am aware of how devils have harems and I have no problems in my daughter´s father to have one, my husband in all but papers, but I won´t allow myself to be placed at the side when I know my place in his heart is bigger than most. I´m the first woman to birth him a heir, and he´s the one that he ahs officially said that loves me the most…tiering by Shamsiel´s side and slightly above due to my birth.
Serafall Leviathan has wanted to be the only one in Ferdinand´s heart when truly, it´s big enough to house us all...like all devils though she´s selfish and wants him to herself.
While I respect her selfishness, though I´ll have her to deny it for as My daughter and my place is there also…and it´s time someone cared for Ferdinand´s happiness beyond duty.
"Can I be able to meet him now?"
I heard the silver haired haunted male ask as many others turn around, I nodded of course. Ferdinand and Vali would feel kinship between them I know and I´m just as sure.
"Then please, come. Lord Lucifer, Lady Leviathan, Azazel, Michael. I shall report to Ferdinand the happenings of this meeting, and I´m sure he´ll send a throughout report also to you. If you excuse me."
.
Underneath her a blonde colored magical circle disappeared and soon everybody was gone and Kuoh was back in peace, due to the timely intervention of Yasaka, little did she know that she has now forever changed the timeline of the DxD World forever and events that should´ve happened never will or will happen but very much different.

Kyoto
Shinto Shrine of the Kyubi of Kyoto
On the main Kitchen of the Shrine a green-tinted blonde haired man, his hair with a silvery-like sheen to it which was so unique to him drank honeyed green tea with gusto, his favorite, as he rather carelessly just read some news reports of the underworld with nothing new to give, as the doors slid inside came Yasaka, he smiled.
"How did the meeting went?"
He asked and behind her soon appeared a silver haired young man dressed in dark blue almost black colored pants, boots, an olive-grene shirt underneath a white sleeveless sweater and above it a black leather jacket. A pair of Hazel eyes darted back and forth with certain nervousness and anxiety, he of course didn´t need to reach out to him to know whom he was.
Vali Lucifer.
His Grandnephew, one of Rizevim´s lineage whom must´ve suffered the insane man´s antics and must be tired with the world. He got acquainted enough with the Pure-Blooded Four-Prince madness with his mother and all those branch-member descendants of the Old Four. Perhaps his Agares blood maintained him untouched of the insanity it causes.
"Please sit down, do you wish some tea?"
He asked to the young man whom sat down like Yasaka did and the man brought two more tea cups and served them both one, sitting down and sipping some green tea Vali went straightforward.
"Who´re you?"
Vali asked to the man at his front, certainly he could feel the potent powerful passive aura he exuded, it wasn´t as passive and cold as Azazel´s or as oppressive and sheer as his Grandfather´s, this was warmth and at the same time passive, a welcoming time and not a cold type, it brought a change to him.
"Ferdinand Agares Lucifer, son of Tsufaame Tereaku Lucifer and Alphonse Agares. Pureblooded Grandson of King Lucifer himself and Lady Leviathan, through an adultery both had that birthed my mother, your grandfather´s young half-sister. This…is a Lucifer Family genealogical tree."
He brought forth a big page which once spread he showed it, the two lucifer lines, as he indicated where he was.
"You´re here, son of Razevam and your mother whose name is here. Your father is son of Rizevim and a human woman he raped, whom in turn is son of the Devil King Lucifer and Lilith. I stand here."
Indicating with an index finger as Vali´s hazel eyes followed his Granduncle´s finger, as he ascended slowly.
"My mother Tsufaame and my father Alphonse Agares are here."
He indicated then afterwards to the face of Lady Leviathan.
"Lady Leviathan remains here, with her ´Husband´ whom she sired no son of and Devil King Lucifer whom she sired Tusfaame Tereaku with. And here…"
He pointed below him and closed his eyes.
"Is my only daughter Kunou. Devil-Youkai Halfling whose the official heiress of the Agares, Lucifer and Leviathan families."
He commented to Vali whom stood appalled glancing at the genealogical tree of the Lucifer Family, so apparently the Devil King had two lineages.
"If you want historical detail perhaps…this could be useful for you."
He brought forth a book, it was a book about the history of Devil King Lucifer and the Lucifer Family.
"Your Greatgrandfather King Lucifer, my grandfather wasn´t an evil man entirely. He ruled fairly over all devils and conquered the underworld for the dark creatures to live in it. He was not insane and instead he won the people of the underworld through his charisma. Nobody suffered, nobody was hurt…everything was well."
At this he stiffened and whispered something, if everything was roses then…
"Why did I suffer…?"
He whispered and the Agares Young Lord sighed and brought forth a folder and pushed it towards Vali, whom took it and he gestured for him to open it.
"In it you´ll find the letter your Grandfather Rizevim send to all the Seventy Two Pillars. Your grandfather sired no sons during that time and he desired a perfect heir for the family; he demanded for the heads of Sirzechs Gremory, Zeoticus Gremory and Lord Bael…to leave Venelana Gremory alone and take her as his wife. Of course, the Gremory family had allies; the Sitri, the Astaroth and the Glasya-Labolas and the Bael was a very influential family. By the time all the ravens arrived to the families, Sirzechs and Ajuka Astaroth whom were at a party in the Glasya-Labolas territories, marched to their territories to gather their bannermen, the Civil War begun."
The Books always spoke of the Civil War of Devils being more of a political conflict that rose after the Civil War due to the absence of leadership, it never stated that his Grandfather´s desire to take a married woman was there.
"It was partially thanks to my intervention, that the historians had mercy to leave your Grandfather´s short reign in the dark…for as to not shame the Lucifer name anymore further."
Ferdinand commented to Vali whom glancing at the documents was starting to believe in the credibility of it, Ferdinand though spoke rather solemnly.
"All those with the blood of the Four Original Kings are fated to insanity as a curse."
Ferdinand spoke and glanced away to the side, all while Vali absorbed what he was being told.
"You loose yourself, you turn into someone without heart and life; no loved ones, no allegiances, you just cause pain to everyone around you for enjoyment and for your own purposes."
And Vali felt nauseated, an apt description of his Grandfather Rizevim, w-was he fated to turn into him, to be into that man and just kill people for enjoyment and that´s it, no space for him to be out of this.
"Not a day goes by when I don´t have to fight it…it´s so easy to succumb, to fall to it…it gives you strength and you win, but each time you draw blood, it turns more easier to do so to anyone including those you hold dear and near."
The Agares Heir took a longing look and finally after a few moments he refocused and glanced at the young man.
"Anyway, is there anything else I can do for you?"
Confused, dazed and not knowing how to answer he glanced at the book and the big page then back at him.
"i…I need to go."
He spoke out and before he could get away the man spoke sagely.
"Then please take the book with you, It´ll be useful for the days to come."
And obeying the sagely advice he took the book and walked away from the house, flying away.
Yasaka turned to meet her husband whom turned at her and gave her a smile, kissing her lips chastely as both got up, ready to go to bed. As the man thought about his Grandnephew he smiled, he was going to come, he´ll always receive him here and perhaps who knows, maybe the boy can be a good influence on his daughter Kunou whom could know a family member aside from him and yasaka.
