The aftermath?
Well, while it was a bit troublesome, it was quite easy to solve since Sona's mansion was quite immense, and all the surrounding suburbs were owned by her due to Masa's insistence on making a safe place for her and for him if he came to visit.
Similar to the house of Masa of Mahouka in Tokyo, Masa of DxD also followed a similar pattern, so their safety could be guaranteed, yet even so, it was quite hard to erase the trace of the previous battle, especially when Katerea wasn't weak and the impact that came from tens of kilometers meteorites that came from the space wasn't something that everyone could joke upon.
"...this was the power of Masa-sama."
While Masa and the others had returned to the house, Sona's peerage members along with Masa's cats helped to take care of the aftermath since hundreds of meters of the hollow created by his first attack on Katerea was just impossible to ignore, especially if one fell on such a hollow, they might be hurt.
Devils and reincarnated asides, those weak humans would definitely have broken bones if they fell into such a hollow.
Yet, watching all of this, they realized why Masa was called the strongest devil of the current era. The one who had defeated Sirzech and was also the lover of their master, Masa Vapula.
With such power, even if Masa had a fiancee, and a certain one thought that it wasn't right, Saji knew that he was helpless.
"...so, what should we do?"
"No, you don't need to do anything, nyaa. You are useless in this area, nyaa."
"....." Sona's peerage members.
Still, this was the truth since Sona's peerage members couldn't help much to fill the hollow. Instead, it was the cats who helped the renovation by using various magics that were related to construction, earth, and minds, so every trace of Masa's battle could disappear.
Yet, how could it be?
Even if the hole could be filled in a night, it would have been impossible for people to forget about the ten kilometers of meteorites that fell from space, ready to smash Kuoh town, which would have caused the complete destruction of this city and the surrounding cities.
The strange darkness might absorb the meteorites, yet this also made all of the forces who were present in this town feel tense because of the overwhelming power of the Masa Vapula.
'More importantly, that aura...'
"Baraqiel-sama."
The fallen angels, who were hiding in the next town besides Kuoh Town, looked at their new governor with a solemn, nervous, and even fearful look after they saw the might that was shown in Kuoh Town.
"Did you understand what was happening?"
"Not yet. We don't dare to get close to Kuoh Town."
After all, for someone to show such power, they definitely had a certain reason, and if they carelessly came to Kuoh Town to investigate, then wouldn't they be viewed as enemies, too?
Baraqiel might be a rough guy, but even so, after staying with his old comrade, who had passed away, Azazel, it was impossible if he didn't pick up a knack or two to handle a diplomatic affair.
Yet, even so, he knew that despite how dangerous it was, he had to go to Kuoh Town, especially when he was worried about his estranged daughter.
"Ask for a formal meeting with the devil side, if possible, Masa Vapula; no, it can be anyone, or we can even tell them that we can be a support in the case the Khaos Brigade has made an attack."
"Yes."
No one rejected Baraqiel's words, but a certain young man, whose blood was boiling hot after he saw such a might, felt that he couldn't stay and had to go.
"Vali, stay!"
"...."
"...are you stopping me, Baraqiel?"
"I do." Baraqiel looked at this young man, whose relationship with the previous governor was close. Naturally, even if Azazel passed away, this young man remained to stay, especially when he wanted to avenge Azazel. The others didn't stop this young man from staying and even helped him, but unlike Azazel, Baraqiel and the others wouldn't indulge him, as they knew what kind of a chaotic situation that this young man would bring.
"If you don't want me to send you back, then remain here."
"Without me, do you think you can handle the devil with such a power?"
"Yes." Baraquiel nodded. "I have called the Slash Dogs here, and they can help me fight. So, follow my words or just go back."
The young man didn't say anything and kept staring at Baraqiel, but Baraqiel didn't relent and continued his harsh gaze until another young man came between them.
"Governor, please forgive Vali. He is still tense and sad about the death of Azazel, after all."
"Tobio..."
"Go back and rest. I will handle the rest."
This young man was older than Vali, smiling, telling him that he would take care of the rest.
Facing this young man, Vali was silent for a while, then nodded.
Then, when Vali left, the young man looked at Baraqiel and said helplessly, "Governor, you are too harsh."
"What can I do? Our relationship isn't that close, and I have to maintain the cohesion of the Grigori, or else everything will fall apart."
Without Azazel, those fallen angels who wanted to rebel and continue the Great War, ignoring Baraqiel and the other high-level fallen angels, were on the rise, but fortunately, those fallen angels could be suppressed as Kokabiel, who was their leader, should have died, but what about Vali?
Unlike those fallen angels that were weak, Vali was...
"Anyway, let me handle Vali, Governor."
"Thank you, Tobio." If there was someone that Baraqiel could trust, then it would be the young man before him, Tobio Ikuse, the leader of the Slash Dog Team, the special team and power fighter group of the Grigori, and lastly, the owner of Longinus.
Still, when Tobio left, Baraqiel sighed, thinking that Vali wasn't the only one who was childish, especially when he knew that mighty attack that appeared on Kuoh also made his heart tremble, wishing to rush to that town right away, but he knew well, if he did...
Letting out a long, helpless sigh, Baraqiel closed his eyes, wondering why that troublesome guy had passed away and left all of those messes.
"Khaos Brigade..."
Meanwhile, the fallen angel wasn't the only one that stayed nearby. Instead, another force, who was the opposite of both the fallen angel and the devil, also stayed in the nearby town and felt the might of Masa's power.
"Michael-sama!" 2x
The two young women felt their bodies filled with powerlessness as they were unable to do anything when they felt such might.
The divine and handsome man, who appeared so holy and pure, also showed a tense expression due to Masa's aura. It was as if Masa had told the enemies to come and not to be cowards, as he was ready to take down all of them.
While he was surprised by Masa's aggressiveness, this was a good strategy, especially when it was impossible to believe in the words of the fallen angel so easily, despite the purpose of this meeting, which would bring good than not.
So, while it was dangerous, he knew that he had to meet Masa and his group.
"You two stay here. I have to go to meet this Masa Vapula and the devil side first."
"Michae-sama!" 2x
Yet, there was no doubt that the one who had the strongest reaction would be another group who didn't have a good intention to those who wanted to destroy the peace between the three factions.
"K-Katerea-sama has been defeated and might have been killed!"
"..."
At that moment, no one could say anything, yet a single young girl, whose expression had always been bland and emotionless, had a flicker of emotion for the first time.
Staring at all of them for a while, who didn't appear to notice her, she left quietly, but there was no doubt, when everyone realized she had disappeared, they were all in a panic.
