A Deathless' Return (Male Reader x DXD)

Chapter 9: A Stray Cat

It's been a week since Y/n pulled the Infinity Blade from its resting place in Kyoto, and his titans were still growing, reaching almost 40,000. Currently, Sirzechs was kneeling in front of Y/n, apologizing for what happened in the meeting. They sat in Y/n's office in Kyoto, with Raidriar behind Y/n himself.

"Sirzechs, you aren't at fault, nor is your Queen," Y/n spoke, "I was the one who instigated Riser, and this was what happened."

"Right, but why would you even do that in the first place," Sirzechs asked.

Y/n sighed, "I suppose I'll tell you. I watched Riser very carefully in that meeting. I then realized who he was."

Raidriar was with Y/n, "Riser Phenex is a Deathless, changed at an early age by the Worker of Secrets himself and had that memory wiped by the man himself."

Sirzechs was dumbfounded, "No, no no that can't be. How would you know this?"

"I tested his sense of pride, and everything that makes him who he is," Y/n smiled, "Comparing his life to mine, and found that his pride is on par with a Deathless, if not the same level. Also the physical differences that I've noticed about him."

"Because you are a Deathless yourself, you'd know how to spot another," Sirzechs put together, "Then how would you explain his regeneration? It's much faster than the rest of his family."

"We Deathless also have a fast healing trait," Raidriar explained, "His Phenex Healing plus a Deathless' will enhance his healing to a higher level."

"Then how will he know that he's Deathless? He's been raised as a High Ranking Pure-Blooded Devil all his life," Sirzechs asked them, "And according to his blood, he still is a Pure Blooded Devil."

"You see, becoming a Deathless doesn't change the blood," Y/n explained, "It changes their soul. The Worker of Secrets had his experiments, and one of which was being able to turn Biblical creatures into Deathless, he's succeeded only a few out of a few hundred times. So he has been bound to understand how to turn a Pure Blooded Devil into one of us. No one knows the process of turning others into Deathless, but he has his ways."

Sirzechs shook his head, "So what are you going to do? Make him submit and back out of the marriage? Kill him?"

"The latter of the two will only be used if Riser refuses to follow," Raidriar quickly answers, "But if Riser attempts to kill Ausar, then he will die himself. Only if Riser surrenders and pledges his allegiance to Ausar will he be spared."

Sirzechs sighed with relief, "Alright, then."

A teleportation circle opened up in the office, with Sirzechs not flinching at the thought of seeing a Fallen Angel. From the circle, Kalawarner stood tall, and was on guard when Sirzechs Lucifer was the first man she saw. Once she looked behind the desk, she composed herself and knelt where she stood.

"My Lord Ausar. Azazel, Governor General of the Fallen Angels, has a response to your alliance proposal," she greeted, "He accepts the terms and has been thinking on making peace with the other two factions anyways."

"Good," Y/n smiled, "Then I suppose our goal for peace for the humans is growing. What is his response to you staying by my side?"

"Oh, he fully supports it," Kalawarner answered, "I'm not sure why, but he wants me to stay with you, but he worded it in an...explicit way."

Y/n shook his head, "Why am I not surprised? He's a Fallen Angel, the most powerful one. Very well, since we have yet to sign for this alliance, then you shall remain by my side and serve me until Azazel summons you."

Kalawarner rose to her feet and nodded, "Yes my Lord."

She then walked around the desk behind Y/n seeing his finished paperwork, and took it from him. Y/n saw this and smiled, knowing she knew how to help her superiors.
