Grigori

Jin Skyward

I teleport with Meruem to Grigori, and we appear in the lobby. However, a lot of the fallen angels around us start to look at him with curiosity. But Meruem doesn't pay them much mind, so I start walking away and he follows me.

"The territory of the fallen angels... Why have you brought me here, father?"

He asked sounding a bit confused.

"You'll see soon enough, don't worry too much."

I didn't want to spoil it for him, so I just kept it vague. Meruem thankfully didn't question it, so that's one of the few aspects I like about him. Maybe it's also due to me being his 'father' that he isn't questioning it.

[Or maybe your status too? I mean, realistically you're kind of known for helping people, Partner.]

Fair point, but let's leave that for now. I had been following Azazel and the rest of the Electa's auras and they seemed to be in the meeting room along with... Mittelt, Penemue and Raynare? Why are those two here? Well, apart from working here... I'm confused as to why they're in this meeting.

We quickly arrived at the meeting room and I touched the door and it slides open.

"Yo, I'm here."

"Took you long enough!"

Azazel complained, although he wasn't, that bothered by it. I was surprised that Slash/Dog wasn't here, but I'll just assume they're in their bar or on a mission. But Lavinia didn't call or text about it...

"Who... Is that?"

Azazel points at Meruem as we both enter the room and the door behind me closes. I point my thumb at him.

"This is Meruem, one of my 'children' like Ignia. To put a long story short, he wanted to find out why his 'mother' made him, so I brought him to Grigori. Anyway, don't probe him or do anything unnecessary, Azazel. Let him live here for a bit."

After saying that, the room fell into stunned silence. I don't blame them. What I just said to them must have been shocking.

"C-C-C-C-C-Chil— You have kids with someone?!"

Raynare screamed while pointing at me. Which made me facepalm. That's what you're hung up about?! That I have a kid?! Not the fact that he's one of the leaders of the current Khaos Bri— You know what... Never mind.

"No... Ray, I'll explain what's up later..."

I tiredly say to her as she goes red from the nickname I gave her.

"Wait, hold on Jin, I don't mind having a new ally, but... Is he willing to cooperate?"

Azazel asked while staring at Meruem, who had no change of expression. Apart from him and Raynare who were a bit skeptical, the rest were fine with it, even Penemue, much to my surprise.

"Probably after a certain time. Anyway, let him live here for the time being."

I turned back to Meruem as he was making a face like I was the insane one.

"This will be very beneficial for you. This place has a lot of characters you can interact with. They range in a lot of personalities, anyway, that blonde midget over there will be the one taking care of you."

I pointed at Mittelt as her face paled. The small fallen angel started shaking violently.

"Hmm, did I say before that Ignia was a double agent for me? Anyway, Meruem. Give this place a chance, let's say... Two months, and if it doesn't work come find me."
