"Everything should be in order. How do you all feel?" asked Promestein. She, along with various other researchers of the Khaos Order had finished the tests on the [Z-Team] and were unwilling to let them go.

The leader of the [Z-Team], Leon grinned as he felt a surge of power emanating from his body. "This...is amazing. I'll admit I was skeptical at the start, but seeing the new power I have, I gotta say it was all worth it. Though it did take a few weeks," he said as he put his clothes back on.

"Well, since we've been cut off from the Evie and Phantasma, we have to make do with our current resources. It took us some time to find that though, the Outer God did a good job in distracting us," said Promestein in frustration.

A few weeks had passed since the match between [Team Sona Sitri] and [Team Golden Rakshasa], and this meant—in the human world, the summer holidays for everyone had just started.

During that time, the members of the [Z-Team] had gone under various experiments to increased their overall power. Many of them had become Satan-class, and their leaders, Leon and Zialbes became God-class in power.

"We've also increased the powers of your Sacred Gears; how do they feel?" Satanael asked, as he just walked into the room.

Leon glanced at the man before summoning darkness, shadows, and black wind around his right arm. A grin spread across his face as he could tell that they had been strengthened too.

"Perfect, just perfect," replied Leon. He then looked around and inquired, "When will we go meet up with Hades?"

Satanael smirked and said, "He's waiting for you and your team along with our leader. I'll bring you guys there, so hurry up."

Doing as they were told, the rest of the team got dressed quickly and followed after Satanael who had left the room before them. Leon and Zialbes joined him and they started a conversation.

"Do you have any idea on when the mission will start?" Zialbes asked.

"I have no idea about the details, I'll also hear about it when we meet up with him today," replied Satanael.

"You're joining?" asked another member behind them.

"No, but some of our hybrids will. They have some new Artificial Sacred Gears that need tuning and are in need of field tests, so this will be a good opportunity for them," explained Satanael.

As they walked through the halls of the Khaos Order's base, they climbed up a few flights of steps and ended up in front of a very unique-looking door. It had various weapons embedded in it, as well as the names of certain leaders that had been slain—one of them included the name Lapis, but many had disdain for the name, yet no one could argue against Daniel as he had put it there per the orders of Aaron—to mock them.

Satanael injected some of his energy into it and it opened. All of them stepped inside after Satanael, and once they were there, they felt several powerful auras hit them. Leon himself was even surprised by this as he grinned at the people near the top of the room.

In the middle, on a throne-like chair was a man that wasn't too far from his own age, but the power he exuded was beyond his own. This was Daniel, the current 'leader' of the Khaos Order. Beside him was Hades with a few other Grim Reapers. One of them was Zeno, the leader of [Team Black Satan of Darkness Dragon King].
