Alright, once again I was rejected from job recruitment. Sad... That's why I didn't upload anything yesterday.
Maybe I am not good enough? Well, that was it.
Sorry for the rant, enjoy the chapter!

"Yo! Wait a minute, let me finish this game. You can sit there while waiting."
When Jin arrived at Azazel's apartment, he was greeted by Kalawarner, who opened the door for him. He let himself in, thinking that Azazel was waiting for him, but
'What the hell is he doing?'
It turned out Azazel was still playing a game. And not some random game, but a famous retro one with a plumber wearing red clothes saving a princess.
While Jin was looking at Azazel as if he was looking at a degenerate who didn't work, Kalawarner approached him from the side.
"Jin-sama. Do you want milk tea or milk coffee?"
"Ah, milk tea, please." He answered reflexively as he sat on the couch, relaxing. Somehow, he didn't really think of Azazel as a threat even though he knew the man was able to defeat him easily.
The sight of a leader of the Fallen Angels playing a retro game was rather funny. Azazel was already at the final level, a lava-filled underground, and was about to fight the last boss to save the princess. Jin knew it would end in five minutes at most, so he didn't mind waiting.
However, unexpectedly, Azazel messed up. When the boss threw its axe, his character jumped right to the axe and got killed.
"Fuck!" Azazel shouted loudly as he threw his controller to the ground. "And I was about to save the princess! What the hell is this game!"
While the governor was raging, Jin laughed loudly on the couch.
"Hahaha! You suck, Azazel!"
"Shut up!" Azazel replied as he walked to the couch across from Jin. He dropped his butt down and clicked his tongue. "Damn reptiles! I should've finished the game if not for that guy!"
The governor kept grumbling about the game as Kalawarner brought a tray with two cups from the kitchen. One of them was colored a bit brown, the milk tea that Jin asked for, and the other was pure black, a coffee.
Kalawarner's face was a bit flushed, and she appeared to be shy as she kept glancing at Jin. From her reaction, Jin immediately knew what kind of milk was mixed in his drink.
'Naughty Fallen Angel.' He scoffed inside but kept his expression calm as he watched Kalawarner bend forward; her breasts were jiggling in process.
"Here is your drink, Jin-sama. And here is your, Azazel-sama."
"Oh, thank you. This is perfect for calming me."
"You're welcome. Please enjoy the drink. I made it with my heart's content." Kalawarner smiled and winked at Jin before she left.
Azazel noticed Kalawarner's gesture and smirked.
"My, you're one kind of lady killer. It seems like my subordinate takes a liking to you, boy." He said as he took a sip of his coffee. "As you can see, she will make a good bride. What do you think? Maybe you will be able to get into her pants if you join Grigori."
As much as Jin wanted to scoff at Azazel's words, he kept himself stoic as he drank the milk tea. As he had expected, the milk came from Kalawarner's breast milk. As proof, he got a notification of getting EXP and Lifespan after he drank a mouthful of the tea.
[You drink a mouthful of milk. As a result, your lifespan increases by 14 Days. You gained 14 EXP]
His lips curled up a little as he put the cup down.
'Sorry, Azazel. But that girl is already as good as a slave to me.' He kept this in himself as he replied.
"Sorry, but I will not join Grigori for now. I only came here because I heard from Vali that you want to meet me. So, let's just cut it to the chase."
"Ahahaha, how impatient. Well, I don't hate that." Azazel laughed loudly as he fixed his sitting position. His aura suddenly changed, and he looked more like a leader than a bad gamer who rage quit the game earlier. "It's about Kokabiel. I found some strange movements from him."
"Strange movement?" Jin asked curiously.
"Yes." Azazel nodded. "Before that, I need to ask something. What do you know about Excalibur?"
"Excalibur? Isn't that the Holy Sword that King Arthur had in Arthurian legend?" Jin replied rather swiftly.
As a child, he was more curious than usual. He loved to read something that might interest him, including Legend and Myth.
Arthurian legend was a popular one. King Arthur of Camelot is the king chosen by the sword in the stone. Of course, Jin had heard it at least once.
"What about the sword and its relationship with Kokabiel's movement? Don't tell me that the sword is real and in his hand?"
"Hahaha, the answer is yes and no. First, the sword was real, but it was destroyed. Now the church only had its fragments. But, those fragments are forged into new Holy Swords, Excaliburs."
"That's messed up." Hearing Azazel's explanation, Jin laughed bitterly. "Then, why did you bring up the sword?" he asked.
"Don't be impatient. Here is the continuation. The swords can only be wielded by someone compatible with them. There is no chance Kokabiel will be able to wield one, and his small fry who could wield the sword has already died. Heck, the one who killed that small fry was you. You know Freed Sellzen, right?"
"Ah, that mad exorcist? So he can wield Excalibur? How scary."
Even though Jin said that there was no change in his expression. Indeed, he was lucky that Freed didn't have that holy sword, Excalibur, when they fought.
'Who knows what will happen to me if he has that sword at our first meeting? Surely I would be killed on the spot if the power of Excalibur was real. Even if the current sword is just a fragment, it surely is strong.'
"Then, what's the problem?" Jin asked about the main problem.
"You see Three of six Excalibur fragments in Church's hand were stolen by that same Kokabiel. Hahaha, the church has weakened too much."
"What a surprise. Are they a fool?" Jin retorted with a monotone. Why? Because it was too absurd.
"Right?"
Both men laughed loudly before stopping at the same time absurdly.
"That was not something to laugh for, no?" Jin said.
"Yeah, no. It is a dangerous situation. Kokabiel's target is Kuoh Town, Satan's siblings. He will come here sooner or later. But, he will bring Excalibur fragments with him. Meaning"
"Someone from the church will also come to Kuoh Town. Fuck." Jin let out a curse as he heard the situation.
"Right. That's fucked up. But I need your help to stop them. I can't interfere directly as it would make the situation worse. The war will resume if I show myself."
"Understandable." Jin understood the situation, so he nodded. But, he wasn't someone who worked for free. "In exchange, tell me about the Phenex family and provide me with some weapons. I also need Vali's help to train, so I want a way to call him."
"Deal!" Azazel immediately answered without digging anything. Jin felt like he was deceived after hearing how easily Azazel agreed to his term.
'I should've added some more conditions, but that's good enough. I will make him owe me instead of getting a reward this time.'
