-Kokabiel-
He could honestly care less of his four minions that had died. They were just insignificant, lower ranking fallen. He had plenty of much stronger fallen under his command. He would just have to send more of his weaker fallen to that Japanese town with the sister of the Satans.
But he did lose someone who was important to his plans and now he would have to find a replacement for them or take that role himself.
Freed Sellzen was not the most talented or strongest out of the Sigurd Institution but he was still greatly talented with a sword and was a man he control, especially with his plans to restart the war.
Freed with a complete a Excalibur would be a great minion to be under him, especially to be in the fallen side during the war but Freed wasn't completely unique in the supernatural world, so he could definitely find a replacement for him or he could take that spot and use the sword for himself.
After all he had been one of the earlier angels created by God and unlike Lucifer, he and the other fallen angels could still use the element of light so he should be able to use Excalibur by force if he had to but depending how the sword is connected to the system of heaven since if it was similarly connected like artifacts like sacred gears he wouldn't be able to use the sword.
Maybe he would pay a visit to that hero faction after his war start after all he has heard that the first and strongest clone of Siegfried was a part of that group.
Then he will recruit them or eliminate them, after all he was attempting to create a world where the fallen angels were the pinnacle of the world so he wouldn't allow any other species to rival them or be a true challenge.
-Christopher-
My training had been very effective, and thankfully I have a very willing training partner.
With my main body, I focus on physical training; my other focuses on magic training and other forms of training.
As Esdeath prepares herself, like the other rounds, I pull up one of my weapons, this time being my twin blades, as we both prepare ourselves to continue.
-later-
As I lay on the floor, letting my body rest, Esdeath was slightly away but also resting on the floor as she was removing her coat.
In the distance I could see Kallen walking towards us with two water bottles in her hands; she was wearing a simple yellow tank top with a pair of small black shorts.
I appreciated her breasts slightly jiggling as she walked up to us.
"Thank you for the water," I say as I grab the water bottle she offered.
+5 reputation for Kallen Stadtfeld (45/100)
It wasn't hard to form a reputation with both of them, but it took different things for me to gain a reputation with them. With Esdeath, when I trained with her, I gained a reputation for it; with Kallen, it was more random, but usually it was when I was nice to her.
+5 reputation for Esdeath (55/100)
As I finished my water bottle, I got up, popping my shoulders. Returned to the house I made for Esdeath and Kallen.
I decided to look at my status and profession to see my progress in these days.

I have been a busy man indeed. Using my knowledge, it wasn't hard to re-create different types of magic. I still need to learn how to use other types of magic but I have definitely increase my diversity of abilities.
Other than that life been very boring for these couple days other that training….
Currently now I was in the middle of dismantling a golem I'd summoned for practice when the air shifted.
A red magic circle bloomed in the center of my living room, and out stepped Rias Gremory.
She wasn't wearing her school uniform this time. A black dress covered her figure but the dress did have a big opening for cleavage, her crimson hair tied up in a ponytail.
Gray growled low from his spot on the couch before I raised a hand, silencing him.
"Lady Rias," I said, wiping dust off my hands. "Good to see you but if I may ask, why are you here coming to my house unannounced."
"You didn't respond to my phone calls or text so I figured it's better to come in person" she replied flatly.
With her statement, I pulled out my shitty flip phone, noticing the missing calls and text messages.
I guess it was my fault…
I sat down in one of my chairs. Rias did the same, settling into one across the room.
"So my lady what brings you to my home it great to see you, but I doubt you just came here to visit" I tease slightly getting a slight blush out of her.
+3 reputation for Rias gremory (75/100)
"I have came to request your services Chris-kun" Rias stating passing me a piece of paper be the reward for the job….
It was simple I would follow her order for around a month in this month, I would help with whatever she needed, and after eliminating certain targets I was free to go…
Of course, with my meta knowledge, I already knew what I was going against Kokabiel…but I only had one question since I killed Freed Sellzen who would take his place when it came to this part story.
Dissipating those useless thoughts for now I listen to Rias as she explains the information she goes of course I already knew it, but I had to pretend otherwise.
She explain about the two exorcist that went to kuoh and one of them got into a fight with her knight injuring him afterwards they left and she immediately try to get in contact with him.
"You want me to be your attack dog for a month and potentially fight an ultimate class," I said flatly.
Rias eyes narrowed. "I want you to be my insurance. You're not affiliated with any faction. If things escalate, the Church can't claim Devil interference if it's a neutral party who stops them."
A smile at that she's clever and this mission wouldn't be a problem for me since I have no issue in fighting Kokabiel but still I should probably try to get the most out of this.
"What exactly will you ask me to do?"
"All I will ask you to do is to defend the territory even if it means having to fight users of swords fragments of Excalibur or a Cadre" Rias said as she points at the part of our contract, the amount of money I would receive.
"Five hundred thousand euros for a month of guard duty?" I said, looking back at her. "That's… generous" I said sarcastically.
Rias smiled faintly clearly not understanding the jab directed at her, as she crossing her legs. "You're worth it. Besides, after what you did to Riser, I'd say you're undercharging."
"Then we have an agreement?" she asked, extending her hand.
I took her hand, giving it a good handshake.
"We have an agreement."

Rias stood, smoothing down her dress. "I'll have a portal prepared for you. How soon can you be ready?"
I glanced around my apartment. There wasn't much to pack. Most of my important belongings were in my inventory or the pocket dimension.
"Give me an hour," I said. "I need to make a few calls."
She nodded, a red magic circle already forming beneath her feet. "I'll see you in Kuoh, Chris-kun."
-later-
The portal deposited me at the edge of the school grounds, just as the sun was setting.
I hadn't missed this place.
The familiar buildings loomed in the distance, the same ones I'd walked past during my brief time as a student.
A figure waited for me by the gate.
Akeno Himejima stood with her arms folded, her long black hair swaying in the evening breeze. She wore a purple dress that matched her eyes, and her smile was as enigmatic as I remembered.
"Kageyami-san," she said, her voice dripping with amusement. "Or do you prefer Christopher now?"
"Either works," I said, stopping a few feet away.
"Come the others are waiting."
She turned and walked toward the old school building the one the Occult Research Club used as their base.
I followed her as we entered the building.
As we finally made it to a certain door Akeno open, letting me pass through the door as I entered, what could only be the Occult Research Club.
The room was covered with what look like to be high-quality furniture, and the lighting of the room, being dim.
Rias was sitting behind a desk she was also wearing her school uniform without the top part only having the uniform standard white shirt.
Akeno quickly move to be right next to Rias.
On a couch near the window, a white haired girl sat munching on what looked like her a bag of cookies. Her expression was blank, she was Koneko Toujou.
And there, sitting quietly in a chair near the bookshelf, was a blonde girl. Asia argento she was wearing the Kuoh Academy uniform.
I glanced around the room once more as I didn't spot a certain pretty boy.
He probably left like in canon after the fight with the exorcist. Not like it matters it wasn't my problem so I wasn't gonna do anything about it.
"Christopher," Rias said, turning her attention back to me. "Allow me to officially introduce my peerage."
She gestured to Akeno first. "You already know Akeno Himejima, my Queen."
"A pleasure, as always," Akeno said, her smile widening slightly.
Rias gesturing to the silver-haired girl on the couch. "Koneko Toujou, my Rook." Then Rias's looked at the blonde girl. "And this is Asia Argento. She joined us recently."
Asia stood up quickly, almost knocking over her chair, and bowed. "It's nice to meet you, Christopher-san! Rias has told me so much about you!"
I raised an eyebrow at Rias, who had the decency to look slightly embarrassed.
"All good things, I hope," I said.
Asia nodded enthusiastically. The introductions wrapped up quickly after that.
"Christopher," Rias said, rising from her desk. "Let me show you to your room." I followed her out of the clubroom and down a hallway.
"You'll be staying here," Rias said, stopping in front of a door near the end of the hall. She pushed it open, revealing a modest but well-furnished room. A bed with clean white sheets, a wooden desk, a wardrobe, and a window that overlooked the school courtyard.
"It's not much," she added, stepping aside to let me enter. "But it should be comfortable enough for a month."
I walked inside, setting my bag on the bed. "Thank you for the room Rias" I said genuinely after all I could've stayed in a shitty hotel. At least here I wouldn't have to worry about any bugs in my room or use condoms in the trashcan.
"If you need anything or have any questions, my room is up ahead" Rias said as she close the door behind her leaving me.
As she close the door, I sat down on the bed given to me.
[New Reputations Unlocked]
Asia Argento: Reputations 55/100
Koneko Toujou: Reputations 55/100
Akeno Himejima: Reputations 85/100
I raised an eyebrow at Akeno's score. That was... higher than expected.
[Reputation Bonus Applied: Enemy of the Fallen]
[Due to Akeno Himejima's personal history and resentment toward her Fallen Angel heritage, your title [Enemy of the Fallen] grants a +40 reputation boost instead of the usual penalty. Additional +30 reputation for defeating Riser Phenex in public combat.]
I dismissed the windows and leaned back on the bed, staring at the ceiling.
I could probably take out kokabiel tonight if I really wanted to but honestly, that would be very boring for me.
I'll try to use this opportunity to grind out as much reputation as I possibly can hopefully I will be able to align myself with the devils by the end of this mission.
XxX
We are back with this story… next chapter will be the end of this little arc also yes like we will be going through the devil faction route (also Christopher is not joining a peerage mostly because he's too strong at this point and no one can reincarnate him except for the Satan)
