we had our meeting postponed to allow everyone to recover but now me tenka and kyoka were in the meeting room the two girls were seated on the couch opposite of each other as usual i was standing in front of window

"tell me chief izumo, what do you know of the moon demon company" i asked in that instant tenka's eyes widened and we had her full attention

"so your a member of them then" tenka said she wasn't as surprised as she thought she'd be, the moon demon company did in fact employ male fighters, the commanders remembered one in particular, the renowned mage assassin, lieutenant colonel kiritsugu emiya, one of the colonel's most trusted officers, emiya was a monster, and one who would take any advantage to win even if it was the most dishonorable thing to do

"maybe, kyoka has been offered the opportunity to join our ranks, we will grant you the same opportunity, of course weather you accept or decline this meeting is to be kept between us, and is not to be told to anyone not even your commander, our recruitment is something we keep within the strictest confidence" i said

"did you accept kyoka" tenka asked kyoka nodded

"i did the offer, the colonel gave me was just to good to pass up, and thanks to nei, i know the decision i made was the right one" kyoka said tenka nodded

"so if i accept" tenka asked

"you will learn everything, even things your commander doesn't know, including of me and the seraph, the term is known but it is highly classified because of how dangerous the seraph is, my seraph especially" i said

"and if i decline" tenka asked

"then you will never speak of this meeting to anyone, and we will never bother you again" i said

"so this is a one time offer, then, will it just be me" tenka asked

"probably not, my meeting of kyoka was not accidental, i am the inside man of the anti-demon corps, it was decided a males perspective was required to avoid any betrayals" i said tenka nodded

"it makes sense if i remember correctly, you don't use the power of the peaches" tenka said

"no we use the weapons we have used since our inception which was well before the mato was discovered, the moon demon company is a very old and very powerful organization, there is a reason we are the top dogs, and your commander has never tried to usurp us" i said

"i accept then, yuuichiro-kun" tenka said

"are you certain" i asked

"once you agree, if you ever betray us, it becomes our duty to hunt you down, and take care of you before you start telling others our secrets" kyoka said she hasn't even been told everything yet but that was just because she had yet to head for MDC HQ yet and yuuichiro can't be expected to remember every single detail

"i understand and accept your offer to join the moon demon company, when do i meet the colonel" tenka said

"you already have" i said

"allow me to introduce, colonel yuuichiro hyakuya and supreme commander of the moon demon company" kyoka introduced tenka's eyes widened

"you wanted to see it for yourself" tenka said

"i would not take a second hand report i would see what the anti-demon corps was so i picked one of the most dangerous areas in mato, and i went hunting, and just as planned kyoka appeared" i said

"this answers so many questions about your strength and power, but that would mean your stronger then any of us" tenka said i nodded

"there is a reason those so called gods fear me, i have the power of a true god, a seraph perhaps the most dangerous being to exist i am the second, and probably also the last as i have killed several myself, there were seven trumpets of the seven only i remain, just like our predecessors i search for any knew seraph holders, but instead of our predecessors i protect them and i don't turn them into weapons for my use, i intend to make sure i remain the only one who uses this power, especially when we have found a means of transferring trumpets safely from one host to another if it works i will have access to all seven" i said

"you would be a god" tenka said

"i practically already am, i am at full power the strongest being on this world, i gave up my humanity long ago to protect the rest and i will continue to do so for as long as i am able, so will aid me will you become one of my seven trumpets of apocalypse" i asked

"i will" tenka said seriously

"good fetch your vice chief she is also getting the same proposal" i said tenka nodded and went to do as she was told i got a resounding yes from yachiho when she was asked to join our ranks

"looks like we will be heading to the company, by the way tenka, yachiho, you have been wondering where himari got her blades" i said as my swords materialized around me

"she got them from me" i said as i took a blade and opened a portal straight to shibuya and the main headquarters of the imperial demon army

"welcome to the imperial demon army headquarters" i said
