Azrail didn’t hesitate. He moved close to the glass holder and quickly scanned the listing on it. The mont after, he was teleported from outside the treasury directly to the throne room. Appearing back, Azrail looked toward the floating cloud of mist that ford Hera’s figure as he spoke.
"I would like this one."
As he said so, he displayed the listing he had chosen, matching the ID marked on the glass container.
"This one?"
As Hera replied, the very sa glass case appeared in front of Azrail, the item locked inside it. Azrail gazed at the treasure capable of changing any lie into truth. He kept his aura in control as he nodded.
"Yes, this one."
A mont later, Hera asked,
"Do you know what it does?"
"Not really. I just felt so kind of connection to it, that’s all."
"I see..."
That was the reply Hera gave as the container disappeared from in front of Azrail.
"My word is a vow. It’s yours. You can have it. Just ntion the specifics of your location to Charine, and I will have it delivered there."
’No way in hell am I letting my location be known to a devil like you.’
Keeping his thoughts hidden, Azrail replied with a kind tone.
"Sure, that can be done."
Azrail’s words were smooth and flawless. A mont later, he was kicked out again, this ti appearing within a vast, majestic room in which Charine was waiting. Her eyes landed on him as she spoke.
"Location."
Azrail passed a certain location to Charine. The location itself was more of a drop-box point, with a dead neutron star lying close by. It was one of the core black-box drop-off and collection locations that Nayan used. After all, as one of the most wanted criminals, many people wanted his head, so he needed places like this to collect whatever he wanted.
Azrail watched Charine’s eyes twitch as she spoke.
"There isn’t anything there other than a dead neutron star close by."
"It’s more of a collection drop. You will find sothing more there that will pick up the drop. You don’t need to worry."
"Okay."
Charine directly agreed, not batting an eye at it. The spatial lanes attached for travel and droppings would be the ones handling these things anyway.
"It can all be arranged without any issues. You will be getting a notification when the delivery is done."
"That sounds good."
Azrail agreed, to which Charine asked,
"Is there anything else you need?"
Azrail stayed silent, looking deeply at Charine, his mind running through so ideas, but he closed them off for now.
’It’s not ti yet.’
Thinking so, he replied,
"Nope, all’s done. Though I would like to keep your information with , if that’s alright."
"Not an issue."
Saying so, Charine disappeared from the room, leaving Azrail as the only one left in the majestic and vast hall. Azrail looked around, after which he quickly used his own invitation to be teleported into his room, soon arriving in one of the hos he had bought. Looking around, Azrail let out a sigh, a sense of elation filling him with what had happened.
’Sigh... a lot has happened in such a small ti. I need to think up new plans and adhere to those steps with Adria, and update so things with Valencia too.’
With Hephaestus hooked to Azrail, he would be able to make so powerful moves that could help his girls. This could perhaps even beco combined help for Yurou, Valencia, and maybe even Lysandra. The one who would benefit the most would be Valencia. Perhaps the sudden support and help from Hephaestus might even change her entire position within her family.
While Azrail’s thoughts floated around with different matters, he quickly logged out of All-Realm.
.....
Slowly, in the outside world, Azrail’s eyes fluttered open, his mind a bit muddled as he sat up straight in the bed. A lot of things needed to be dealt with. Azrail, for now, decided to sleep. He didn’t need it, but it was sothing Azrail liked doing.
These days and tis passed.
...
The Ailin City looked normal to the outside world, but beneath it all, chests were puffed out, and the air was full of gossip. After all, the nad greatest prodigy of this generation seed to have co to their city in a way, and that also ca with a lot of attention and focus.
Everything looked good on the surface, but the attacks and attention the city was receiving hadn’t gone down at all. Problems lay everywhere, but the mbers Azrail had set up easily dealt with all of them, making sure peace lay throughout the city, and no problems cropped up that couldn’t be handled.
While all this happened, the rest of the family mbers were also doing well. Kia seemingly ca out of her room and rushed into an excursion, sothing about having found her path in the future. The help Azrail had given her had paid off. anwhile, Azrail’s mother, Lan, was focused on the continental eting she had planned.
A vast and first selection like this would be legendary. Not to ntion, the things auctioned off had to match that legendary taste. Overall, everything was going well.
Xunayin was focused on improving herself bit by bit. Valencia focused on improving her position in her family and her other-side business. The Ai family integrated itself into understanding growth and the power of the universe. With their talent, they knew their limits. All they hoped was not to beco soone useless to the family that was being built.
It was still complex in a way, how all of this would grow for them, but in their own ways, they were helping further what needed to be done. And within all this, at the centre, lay Azrail. He was helping and dealing with all of them, moving around with each of them, too.
At tis, he would get contacts from Yurou through their communication, talking about how everything was for her, how she was growing. By this point, the two of them were talking every day. Any ti Yurou could get free, she tried to reach him, trying to feel like the two of them were closer together at the sa ti.
anwhile, things were going well with the flow of everything in the organisation and all. The assassin’s mark, being led by Raven, was spreading fear. The continent was trembling, and that wasn’t the end. Raven was soon planning on spreading it to every continent across the realms, their nas becoming those of pure fear and danger.
Ravenna, anwhile, was growing in her own way, finding her path by growing, understanding, and learning. By now, Azrail’s shadow had beco the best ho she could find. Azrail would also spend his ti interacting with her, talking to her, feeding her, and getting closer to her. She was bound to him, but that didn’t an they couldn’t grow closer, right?
So things went well on that front. At the sa ti, Yunbai was going through the continent. Azrail had given him the chance to grow in the best way he could, through slaughter.
Azrail attached a guard to Yunbai and let him loose. Though he was unleashed with an objective, Yunbai was fulfilling the goals Azrail had placed on him, all the while getting stronger like a monster. He was sharpening his sword, and soon it would strike and kill his enemies. Once he truly killed those who gave him that hell, he would be free of his burdens and grow even more.
Even now, Azrail could lead Yunbai to kill whoever he wanted, but Azrail knew that revenge taken by one’s own hands was infinitely more satisfying than revenge handed to you. Plus, killing the Emperor and those related now would destabilise everything for Azrail. Right now, Azrail needed structure before he plunged everything into chaos himself.
Everything was going smoothly for now.
