Playing with other Supernaturals

Chapter 907 A Turning Point in History

While Kisuke was busy preparing the gate to further safeguard its function and informing the relevant people of the girl’s return, the Belial House set a secret meeting between them, the Gremory, and the Sitri to discuss the ‘bomb’ that Kisuke had just dropped on them.

From the Belial side, it was Cleria and Diehauser, Zeoticus and Venelana who came for the Gremory, and Dylan and Cordelia as the Sitri’s representatives.

While the other two Houses didn’t really know what this meeting entailed, the moment they heard about it being ‘secret’ and ‘Kisuke Urahara’, they’d rearranged their busy schedules to accommodate them fully.

“I apologize for suddenly springing this on everyone here and thank you very much for coming despite your busy schedules.” Cleria started with obvious dark bags under her eyes and a bit of a pale skin complexion. It was very clear to everyone that she has been overworking herself to the point that even being a High-class Devil didn’t help anymore.

Dylan sighed, “If we still called ourselves busy after looking at you right now, we’d just be ashamed. In any case, anything that’s attached with the label ‘Kisuke Urahara’ is a call for attention. Though…” He then looked at the Gremory couple sitting opposite of him and Cordelia, “I didn’t think you’d also invite the Gremory.”

Venelana just let out a small laugh while covering her mouth and Zeoticus just shrugged his shoulders before responding, “If not for a certain incident, we wouldn’t be here.”

“I see… It looks like his unconventional methods have reached your house too.”, Dylan replied while also thinking, ‘Does it have to do with the rumors going around that their Ancestor is still alive?’

“Well then, I won’t be wasting your time any further.” Cleria looked at Diehauser and said, “Please.”

Diehauser nodded and began distributing documents to each of the attendees as Cleria explained, “Although I want to make it simple and just summarize it for you, I might only confuse everyone here, so I’d like for you to read through the documents carefully before we begin. The negotiations will be easier with all of us on the same page.”

Curiosity took everyone’s attention and they became fully committed to the documents just a few minutes after.

Cleria and Diehauser smiled wryly with each other and enjoyed their coffees. They knew that it’d take quite a while before they could start discussing.

After approximately an hour, everyone had finally finished digesting everything that the documents had to offer with heavy expressions plastered on their faces, “Does the Belial House intend to start a war?” Zeoticus asked.

Already expecting this type of response, Cleria answered calmly, “Please don’t compare this to a weapon of mass destruction. In my opinion, this could be seen as a form of progression likened to how Human civilization switched from swords and shields to guns and bombs.”

“But that only happened because of their thirst to conquer.”

“And their desire to protect themselves from their enemies. Please don’t forget that.”

“So are you saying that we have to prepare the entire world for a massive war?”, questioned Dylan.

Cleria smiled and turned to him, “Aren’t we already preparing for war?”

“Did you mean the threat of the Alliance of Hell?”, asked Venelana, “Aside from this being too late already, it doesn’t warrant such technology that might potentially affect how everyone lives their life and the destruction of the barrier between the ‘normal’ and ‘supernatural’.”

“Alliance of Hell? The DxD is fully capable of dealing with the threat they pose.”, Diehauser pointed out, “But aside from that, I agree with one of the points they brought up.”

The four guests’ eyes widened in disbelief, “That statement would be controversial if the public were to know of it. The whole world might even see you as their enemy.” Dylan muttered.

Diehauser nodded, “I know that. But just because they are seen as ‘evil’ doesn’t mean some of their ideas are wrong. The fact that the world is not adequately preparing for an otherworld invasion is something I fully… and the entire Belial House agrees with.”

A heavy silence covered the room for a few minutes before Cordelia voiced her question, “What does Kisuke-kun know?”

“What he has right now are just speculations, and he’s one of the most pessimistic people I know,” Cleria answered after a moment of hesitation.

Everyone looked at her and waited until she sighed before continuing, “As we are now, we probably have no way of fighting against an invasion that will come from another dimension.”

Zeoticus frowned and said, “That’s really one pessimistic view, but I believe he wouldn’t just think of the worst-case scenario for no reason… At least from all the displays he has done that I’m aware of.”

Cleria nodded, “He said that after Rizevim’s stunt, our world just shouted at the top of it’s lungs in a very big, very dark, and very silent room where an unknown number of other worlds were quietly listening. The chances of one having a jumpy personality might just pull the trigger for an invasion can’t be ignored. Heck, he even said that he wouldn’t be surprised if some otherworldly beings are already roaming the world without our knowledge. While Great Red is guarding the Dimensional Gap, he couldn’t possibly notice every small hole that will be created in an instant.”

Cleria’s words sent shivers to everyone as they imagined that Kisuke uttered those words. It became even more terrifying when they recalled that he’d already brought an otherworldly being with him.

Cleria liked their response as that was what she needed now. Although it might be considered an unnecessary fear now, that’s why they needed to proceed with sufficient speed, ‘This is just the start. If possible, I’d like the entire Human world to become aware of this side of the world… As expected, some drastic measures are needed and we’d need all the authority we can have.’

Clapping her hands, Cleria gathered everyone’s attention again and with a small glint of craziness flashing in her eyes, she continued, “Now then, shall we discuss the specifics of the Soul Gear?”

Dylan chuckled to himself and said, “We have no way of getting out of this one, huh?”

Zeoticus, on the other hand, rubbed his chin while sighing, “Better to take the initiative than give it to others, huh… I wonder if this is worth it for making enemies everywhere?”

“We’ll always have enemies whenever a new form of progression is presented,” Cordelia commented.

While rubbing her forehead, Venelana could feel the immense amount of work coming for them, “Priorities have to be rearranged…”

And although none of them were voicing it, they all knew that the first one who they had to take care of, ‘Zekram Bael’, the de facto leader of the Devils after the fall of the original Satans.
