Mike announced his name which shocked everyone in the room except Serafall because she just cared about Mike's 'cute' looks. After Serafall, the next one to react is Grayfia Lucifuge.
"It seems this matter is very confidential, so I will wait outside the room."
"Ah, I don't mind..." Before Mike could complete his sentence, Grayfia vanished from the room. Mike sighed and the next moment, his face was buried in boobs once again. He felt a sense of deja vu.
And as one would expect, Serafall hugged Mike without even a little sense of danger. "Ah, Kawaii!! Omochikaeri! (Ah, so cute!! I am going to take you home! : Higurashi Reference.) I will raise you as my Mi-tan along with my So-tan! Ah, that's right! You can also wear a magical girl costume!"
"But I am a guy! Mmphh!" Mike tried to talk but he was buried in boobs as usual. Mike felt a little bit of pity for this 'So-tan'. And it was Euclid who pulled Serafall away from Mike.
"Hold your horses, Serafall. Please don't forget that this guy is currently the most famous exorcist and also the one who took over the underworld." Euclid calmed her.
"But Euclid-chan, he's so cute!"
"I thought you were just a sis-con but you are also a shota-con huh..." Sirzechs commented on Serafall's excuses. After that, all of them took a seat. And the unofficial conference between the Maous and Mike officially started.
"So, would you like to explain what is happening and what is it that you want, the infamous child prodigy?" Sirzechs questioned.
And Mike started his explanation "I know I made a mess yesterday and I apologize for that. First, my goal is to achieve peace between the three races. You might know me as the famous exorcist working for the church but I don't really take orders from anyone and the person backing me is the Archangel Michael himself. He wants peace too. Since direct communication between you and him only happens during the Three factions Conference which will happen only during emergency times, I am sent to talk with you about Peace. Angels can't sin but as a human, I can. So, I had to use some methods of my own to get into contact with the Maous. I once again apologize for the mess."
Sirzechs sighed "Haa... What is Michael thinking? Alright, I understand why you contacted us but you didn't need to do what you did yesterday, right? Why did you involve with the Rating Game Corruption? Although I am grateful, one wrong step from your side will destroy the peace you are trying to achieve."
"Forgive me for my interference but I would like to confirm one thing. If the one who is involved is a church official and Diehauser decided to work with you, can I take it that Cleria Belial is still alive?" Euclid is the one who interrupted.
"Yes. But you will never find out where she is. I was the one who was assigned to kill her. I faked her death, got into contact with Diehauser who came investigating her death, and he asked me to help him get revenge on the old devils. So, I helped him. My hacking skills are excellent as you have seen yesterday." Mike said.
"So, you hacked the system that I worked hard to build and got rid of the King Pieces," Ajuka commented with a little hint of frustration.
"Wow, Mi-tan, you are so cool!!" Serafall exclaimed but no one in the room cared about her comment.
"What's your relationship with Michael?" Sirzechs asked curiously.
"I am the adopted brother of Michael Nii-chan and Gabriel Onee-chan. Yes, I was raised by them in heaven. I am considered an adopted grandson of Vasco Strada while I am on Earth. I am too mature and clever for my age due to certain circumstances. I will tell you more about my origin sometime later. Just accept it for now."
Well, of course, everyone is shocked at Mike's confession. And the first one to react is again Serafall.
"Gabriel 'Onee-chan'? That was supposed to be my title... Gabriel, you thief!! What were you thinking when you are letting such a cute boy, who calls you 'onee-chan', do dangerous work like this?! That's it! I am gonna destroy the heavens!!" Serafall summoned her wand and got up to go to war.
"But I will be sad if you do that. Serafall Nee-san, can you not start a war and agree with peace for me, please?" Mike asked with puppy eyes. Serafall took a critical hit and she fell back to her seat with a bleeding nose. Mike understood that handling her is the same as handling Gabriel.
"Hehehe... Can you call me that one more time?"
"Serafall Nee-san?"
Another critical hit. "Give me peace!! I vote for peace!" Serafall shouted. And that's how Mike got one of the Maous to agree with his goals.
The Maous looked at Serafall and sighed.
"I see... I understand why Michael sent you. Help us achieve peace huh... What are you gonna do?" Sirzechs asked.
"I think I already did what's needed to be done. The ones that are a major hindrance to peace are the Old devils and excessive pride of devils. With yesterday's incident, the old devils lost the backing of Zekram Bael. And without the corruption in Rating Games, the reincarnated devils would start winning over the pure-bloods. That would change the thought process of the next generation of the underworld. Furthermore..." Mike gave some info to Ajuka "...This is the info I gathered about the corrupt businesses throughout the underworld. I guess this will be enough to control the Old devils who will slowly lose their influence with time. So, when you put up a proposal for peace in a few years, I guess no one will be there to object."
There was a moment of silence after that. And Sirzechs broke that silence "Diehauser might be thinking that you helped him but you are the one who used him, huh..."
Mike smiled, "Diehauser was already convicted to declare the corruption to the public. So, I used that conviction for my sake."
Sirzechs started laughing out loud "Hahaha... I see... The one from heaven who can sin for the sake of the greater good. A Heaven's devil... Hahaha... Excellent job, Michael!! Hahaha!"
He laughed for a while. And he extended his hand towards Mike "Alright, Michaelangelo Strada, Let's work together for peace."
"Please call me Mike." Mike shook the Maou's hand. With this, the second one accepted. Now onto the third one, Ajuka Beelzebub.
"Maou Ajuka Beelzebub. I am not an inventor like you but I am a researcher. So, I can gather and infer a lot of info about something. So, can you accept peace so that we work together in science? I will tell you how I hacked your system too..." Mike said while extending his hand to the Maou.
Ajuka took Mike's little hand "Sure, I am interested. Consider this a reward for impressing me by hacking the system."
And that's the third one. Only one Maou left.
Euclid sighed "I guess I am the last one who needs to accept huh... I would like to ask you some questions before that, Mike."
"Sure" Mike agreed.
And Euclid started questioning. "Alright, Mike, here's the first question. What do you know about the term 'DxD'?"
*************************
(Author's Note: Well, I said that there might not be a chapter but things somehow worked out. So, I decided to make you guys hang on an even steeper cliff.
Well, about the chapter's ending, I already gave you hints and it was kinda obvious from the start. Why else would the past be different from the original?
For those who didn't figure it out and thought I changed the past because I wanted to put Grayfia in the harem, you were either thinking with your d*ck or you were so used to authors giving some dumb reason to put Grayfia in the harem or both of the above. I will let you decide which case it is. In any case, congratulations, you fooled yourself.
And here's the final blow for those who still have hope. Grayfia Lucifuge won't be a part of the harem.)
