"Koneko, are we playing fighting games again today?" Standing at the entrance of the arcade, Blake lightly patted Koneko's head and gently asked.
"Mm, I must defeat you today," Koneko said without hesitation. She pushed the glass door open with her small hand and entered.
Seeing this, Blake could only smile helplessly before following Kanna inside. It seemed that Koneko felt she couldn't win him in simple controller games, so she brought him to the arcade for joystick games.
Originally, she thought she could defeat him, but as expected, Blake once again easily defeated her, just as he had in the past. After all, whether it was controller games or joystick games, Blake had quite a bit of experience.
Getting beaten so easily stirred Koneko's competitive spirit again. Whenever she had time, she would drag Blake back here. And since it was the weekend, they were already regulars.
Blake came with the thought of playing with Koneko and reliving some childhood memories.
When they entered the arcade, there was a noisy atmosphere with excited shouts everywhere. Since it was the weekend, there were quite a few people around.
"Here, Senpai," Koneko said, skillfully finding her spot before waving at Blake with her golden eyes. Even though it was crowded, not many people played fighting games in Japan, so it was mostly Blake and Koneko, among a few others. There was no concern about losing their spots.
Just as Blake was about to walk over with a helpless smile, he suddenly sensed a powerful aura, and his crystal blue eyes narrowed. He looked toward a game machine in front of Koneko.
There, a middle-aged man dressed in an unusually odd traditional kimono was holding a joystick, gazing at Blake with an expression full of amusement, as if trying to see through him.
He had the appearance of a born villain, dressed in a dull gray kimono, completely out of place in the arcade, yet emanating a destructive aura.
Noticing Blake's strange reaction, Koneko was taken aback. She then followed his intense gaze and noticed the odd man. However, unlike Blake, who only felt this person was strong, Koneko felt as though she was facing a wild beast. The instant she sensed this, she was terrified, her small body trembling uncontrollably.
"The Governor of the Fallen Angels, Azazel, casually invading our territory and threatening Member of Gremory family, are you planning to declare war on us? Just so happens, I have some matters to settle with you," Blake said coldly, stepping in front of Koneko to block Azazel's aura, his crystal blue eyes filled with killing intent.
"Figured you'd recognize me. Well, kid, don't get too excited, don't get too excited, I don't have any special intentions. I'm just here to apologize for what happened last time."
Feeling the killing intent from Blake, Azazel shrugged and waved his hand, casually saying. However, his expression and actions were utterly insincere.
"Governor of the Fallen Angels, Azazel?!"
Upon hearing the conversation between Blake and Azazel, Koneko was stunned, her heart filled with shock as she looked at the man with a wicked smile.
"Azazel, is this your idea of an apology? And invading our territory for no reason, not to mention sending fallen angels to spy on me and the whole Kokabiel incident—this isn't something that can be settled with just an apology."
Seeing Azazel's unscrupulous demeanor, Blake coldly said.
At the same time, the system's scan of Azazel's information appeared clearly in Blake's eyes.
Fallen Angel Governor - Azazel
Power: Peak Satan (?)
Evaluation: An important character in the High school DXD world, boss of the Fallen Angel faction, an enthusiast of Sacred Gears, has extensive knowledge of various Sacred Gears, not very interested in combat. Though his personality is quite unscrupulous, he is still considered a good person.
"Peak Satan Class, huh."
Blake's crystal blue eyes flickered slightly, and he murmured, "If I want to defeat him, it would still be a bit challenging for me. Furthermore, based on the scan, his sensory can only be reduced by half, and neither Satans nor someone like Cao Cao with a Longinus Class Sacred Gear can be affected by his Perceptual Distortion ability."
"Well, the three factions are about to meet, so I came here for a little fun, check out some places, and play some games. Overall, I'm here to apologize, and as for sincerity, I don't have much to offer. But since I do have some research on Sacred Gears, how about you lend me your Red Dragon Emperor's gauntlet to study?" Azazel smiled at Blake, his eyes filled with deep shock and curiosity.
To be honest, when he heard about the incident at the Silva family yesterday, and the news that someone had massacred most of the family members spread to the world power houses, he was shocked at the time and even ruined the Sacred Gear he had just crafted.
At first, when Raynare reported the news to him, he just chuckled and didn't pay much attention. He had only been monitoring Blake, the young master of the ancient Magic arts family, by chance after discovering the fluctuation of the Sacred Gear on him.
However, he still remembered Blake's warning. He found Blake to be a strong (or kingly) and interesting human being, as most people didn't dare to speak to him in such a manner.
Later, when Blake forcibly suppressed Kokabiel, Azazel became even more intrigued. Until late last night, a piece of news completely stunned him and the entire higher-ups of the Fallen Angels.
The current Red Dragon Emperor had appeared, and it was the very young man he had monitored before, the one who killed Kokabiel. Not only had he appeared, but he had directly destroyed his own family, even killing Cao Cao, the holder of the [True Longinus Spear] and the key figure of the [Khaos Brigade], and heavily injuring the [Dimension Lost] host, causing the [Annihilation Maker] to flee with him.
This news spread like a tidal wave among the Fallen Angels. No, it should be said that it shook all the powerful forces in the world. All the gods and Top powers were shocked and collectively concluded that there was now a new monstrous existence in the world who should not be provoked lightly.
So, Azazel couldn't wait to arrive at this town, eager to meet Blake, the person he was extremely interested in.
