Time, like sand, flowed away little by little.
A week had passed since the familiar contract.
Currently, at Abel's home.
Grayfia was busy.
Tiamat was still cooped up at home as usual.
Elsha was enjoying her rare retirement life.
At this moment, a black magic circle with snake patterns appeared on the ground.
Grayfia put down what she was doing.
"Long time no see, Grayfia."
"Same here, long time no see, Falak."
A black-haired woman walked out of the magic circle.
It was Ajuka's Queen, Falak.
Falak scanned the area, and besides the familiar Tiamat, she also noticed Elsha on the sofa.
"This is?"
"Hello, I'm Elsha, Abel's Pawn." Elsha introduced herself.
"Falak."
Falak stated her name.
A greeting meant they were acquainted.
However, the name Elsha sounded a bit familiar to Falak. Of course, Falak didn't think too much about it. After all, no one would have thought that the strongest female Red Dragon Emperor in history would actually be resurrected.
After sensing for a moment, Falak realized that Abel was not at home and asked, "Grayfia, when will Abel-sama return?"
Grayfia said, "Master is currently out dealing with Stray Devils with his Peerage."
"I see, then I'll wait for him to return."
"Please take a seat then, it might be a while."
Falak didn't stand on ceremony and sat on the sofa.
Grayfia got up and walked towards the kitchen.
Tiamat leaned over and asked curiously, "Falak, do you have something important this time?"
Falak replied, "Ajuka-sama wants Abel-sama to return for a family dinner, and also to discuss something important with him."
"I see."
Abel's Peerage would also be returning to the Underworld with him.
Tiamat nodded.
Grayfia served Falak a cup of black tea.
"Please enjoy."
"Thank you."
Everyone chatted while waiting for Abel to return.
Time passed little by little and the teleportation circle representing Abel appeared.
"I need a good bath, I'm so dirty."
"Eat! Eat!"
"Abel-nii, do you need help?"
...
Everyone walked out.
Seeing an unfamiliar woman sitting on the sofa looking at them, they instantly fell silent.
"What's wrong?"
Abel was puzzled as he walked out of the magic circle with some curiosity.
Seeing Falak, he was stunned for a moment, then greeted her, "Falak, long time no see."
Falak respectfully said, "Long time no see, Abel-sama."
Abel looked at Falak and asked with a smile, "Does brother have something for me? It's so much trouble for you to come over."
Falak said, "Ajuka-sama wants you to return for a family dinner, and also to discuss something important with you."
Abel nodded. "I see."
Then he turned to Kanae and the others, saying, "Then everyone, pack up, we're going back to the Underworld."
"Understood."
Then the four girls went to wash and bathe. After all, they had just finished fighting Stray Devils, and the smell of blood on them was still quite strong. Abel also returned to his room to change his clothes.
After a while, everyone was prepared.
"Falak, sorry for the trouble."
"It's nothing."
After speaking, Falak activated the magic circle leading to the Underworld.
As Falak's demonic power was injected, a flash of light passed, and they disappeared from the room.
Underworld.
Beelzebub's Castle.
"Wow, what a magnificent castle."
"It's so big."
Hana and Miko couldn't help but exclaim as they looked at the luxurious room.
The others stood behind Abel without speaking.
"Please lead the way."
"Understood."
Then everyone followed Falak to the place where Ajuka was preparing the banquet.
On the way, aside from Elsha and Grayfia, Kanae and Asia were a bit nervous. After all, they were about to meet one of the Four Great Satans, Beelzebub and he was also their Master's brother.
Abel understood everyone's thoughts and reassured them, "Don't worry, my brother is a very good and gentle person."
To Abel, Ajuka was a very gentle person during his childhood, but he occasionally belittled his intelligence.
Soon, led by Falak, Abel first went to Ajuka's office.
As the door opened, Abel saw that Ajuka was chatting with a man with crimson hair, Sirzechs.
"Brother, Sirzechs-nii."
"My little brother is here."
"Abel, long time no see."
Seeing Abel, Ajuka showed a gentle smile, and Sirzechs also greeted Abel.
Then Ajuka looked at the Peerage behind Abel and was very satisfied.
Abel had actually managed to win over the most difficult maid in the Underworld, and the talents of these Peerage members were not bad.
Then Ajuka said with a smile, "You must be Abel's Peerage, nice to meet you, I am Abel's brother, Ajuka."
"Hello, Ajuka-sama, I am Master's Pawn, Miko."
"I... I... I am Abel-nii's Bishop, Asia."
"I am his Knight, Kanae."
...
"Elsha, his Pawn."
Hearing Elsha's name, Ajuka and Sirzechs were both a little surprised. This seemed to be the name of the strongest female Red Dragon Emperor in history. Although they were surprised, they didn't say anything.
Except for Grayfia and Tiamat, who they already knew, the others introduced themselves.
Ajuka said with a smile, "You are all good children. I'll leave Abel to you. These are gifts prepared by me."
"Thank you."
Saying that, Ajuka also took out many gift boxes. At the same time, he had Falak distribute them.
Kanae and the others thanked him and took the gift boxes in their hands.
Ajuka put some thought into Abel's Peerage.
Kanae's gift was a katana with sun attribute, forged from the best materials in the Underworld.
As for Asia, it was a counter-necklace that reflected attacks by consuming demonic power, which would be helpful to her in the early stages.
Miko, Hana, and Elsha all received gifts that would be helpful to them now.
"Alright, Falak, take my Abel's Peerage to the banquet hall to wait, and we'll come together later."
"Understood, everyone, please follow me."
Falak followed Ajuka's command and led Kanae and the others towards the banquet hall.
