Chapter 1034: The Devil King's Invitation
"Um, um, I didn't come here to hold you accountable!"
Under the surrounding gazes of everyone, acting on the nature that a good Fallen Angel doesn't suffer immediate losses, Azazel decisively chose to concede. Of course, in Azazel's eyes, this behavior wasn't called conceding; it was called assessing the situation, called following one's heart.
Feeling the pressure from the gazes fixed on him begin to decrease, Azazel also let out a slight sigh of relief, then quietly gave himself a mental thumbs-up for his actions.
"You all also know that Kokabiel's status among the Fallen Angels is not low. Now that he has been eliminated by someone, and even the White Dragon Emperor was beaten away, this has made our side of the Fallen Angels somewhat vigilant. After all, being able to do such a thing, who knows which one of the four Devil Kings might have acted personally. And this kind of behavior is very easy to cause conflict between the two races, so I hurried over to take a look," Azazel said.
"So that's how it is, then we shall tentatively accept your idea!" Liuli nodded slightly, and the Destruction Power continuously diffusing from her body also converged in an instant.
"I wonder what relationship this young lady has with Sirzechs?" Azazel asked.
Feeling the gaze from Liuli that instantly turned sinister, Azazel hurriedly waved his hands: "No, no, no, what I mean is, the power on this young lady is truly somewhat similar to the Destruction Magic of the Gremory Clan."
"What I master is Destruction Power; do not casually link my power to any family!" Liuli said indifferently.
"I understand, I will not make this mistake again!" Azazel nodded vigorously.
Although he didn't know Liuli's background, he could be certain that this was definitely a powerful existence whose strength was not inferior to his own. If such a powerful existence had any hostility toward him, it would definitely be a huge trouble. Moreover, his arrival this time was on one hand for the matter of Kokabiel, and on the other hand for the matter of LuChen and the others. After all, with such a powerful force of unknown origin suddenly appearing in this place, no matter who it was, they would have a few more points of vigilance in their hearts.
"Then, regarding the matter of Kokabiel, do you have anything you want to say now?" Lingyun asked indifferently.
"This, Kokabiel is after all a high-level member among our Fallen Angels, and now on our side, there are still quite a few people who are quite worried about this matter..." A look of difficulty could not help but appear on Azazel's face.
"Actually, for this matter, I have a very simple solution!" Kurumi said to Azazel with a smile.
Hearing Kurumi's words, Azazel's heart could not help but jump wildly. Although there was a smile on Kurumi's face, Azazel could be certain that this solution was definitely a very terrifying method.
"What method?"
"Just bring all those who question us to this place!" Kurumi's tone carried a hint of mystery.
"Kurumi, with your current strength, you shouldn't need to replenish time anymore, right!" Lingyun said somewhat helplessly.
"Replenish time, what does this mean?" Azazel suddenly felt his scalp go numb.
"Kurumi possesses the ability to devour the time of others!" Liuli said indifferently.
"Devour, time..." Azazel suddenly seemed to have thought of some terrifying thing.
"What do you think it would look like if an existence's time were all devoured?"
"If Azazel cannot bring them all over, then me going to the territory of the Fallen Angels would be the same thing!" Kurumi closed one eye, revealing only that pupil which had turned into a clock to Azazel.
"Ahem, don't worry, I will go and resolve the matter on the Fallen Angel side; I will absolutely not let them disturb you here!" Azazel had goosebumps all over his body and nodded vigorously at everyone present.
After the Three-Way War, the Fallen Angels were also in a state of lacking successors. And listening to Kurumi's tone, this was clearly a tone of wanting to start a massacre. If an existence capable of mastering the power of time were allowed to enter the territory of the Fallen Angels and start a massacre, I am afraid the entire Fallen Angel race would fall into a huge crisis.
Watching Azazel's back, which looked more like he was running away, a look of helplessness could not help but appear on Lingyun's face.
"Can't be helped, I have the least affection for this kind of glib-tongued guy, so naturally it's better to send this guy away early," Kurumi said with a casual expression.
"Regardless, thank you, Teacher, for the matter of Kokabiel earlier. If it weren't for you acting, Teacher, I really wouldn't know what the situation would have turned into," Rias Gremory said to Lingyun once again.
"It's nothing, regardless, I am called Teacher by you, so protecting you is also the right thing to do," Lingyun said indifferently. "However, what exactly are your thoughts regarding these two Holy Sword Users?"
Lingyun's gaze fell on Xenovia and the other person; both of them were still frowning tightly even now. It was obvious that the fact that God was dead was quite a blow to the two of them. If there was no correct guidance, no one knew what these two would eventually do. This was also the reason why Lingyun himself hated fanatics the most; once these guys had a collapse of faith, no matter what kind of things they did, it was not worth being surprised.
"Regarding these two children, I have some thoughts of my own, perhaps they can be implemented," Rias Gremory said, letting her gaze fall on Asia beside Lingyun. "Actually, Asia, I am a bit worried now."
"Regarding Asia, I naturally also have my own solution," Lingyun said with a smile.
Hearing Lingyun say this, Rias Gremory could not help but let her gaze fall on Yese Xiayin. After all, just a moment ago, Yese Xiayin had unfolded her Angel wings! Most importantly, Yese Xiayin had said that she was an Angel belonging to Lingyun. Under these circumstances, it was not impossible for Asia to transfer her faith to Lingyun.
"By the way, Teacher, I have another matter for coming here this time!" Rias Gremory said, handing an invitation to Lingyun's hand.
"This is?" Looking at the invitation in his hand, a hint of confusion could not help but appear on Lingyun's face.
"This is an invitation letter my brother entrusted me to bring to you, Teacher. He wants to invite you to meet with him," Rias Gremory said to Lingyun.
"An invitation from the Devil King Lucifer, this is really quite an interesting thing!" The corners of Lingyun's mouth hooked into a smile, and then he nodded slightly.
