Takumi immediately agreed to Michael's invitation.
"No problem, I'll serve as a witness."
Takumi, half-hoping someone would cause trouble, agreed without hesitation. Being a witness sounded fun too.
Seeing Takumi agree, Michael's eyes sparkled with joy.
"Great! Let's get started right away."
He looked over at Sirzechs and Azazel.
"I'm fine with it! Let's handle this quickly, then I want to have a good chat with Lord Takumi. I'm so curious about other worlds."
Azazel had no objections. Just sign the documents and wrap things up—no need to make it complicated.
Sirzechs naturally had no complaints either.
So, with everyone in agreement, the three factions quickly finalized everything.
Takumi and Ophis served as witnesses to the proceedings.
But, to Takumi's disappointment, nobody came to make trouble.
He'd kind of been looking forward to it, but then again, the old-school devil faction wasn't stupid. They knew Takumi was here, and there were so many Sacred Gear wielders around. Even if they had a mole, nobody would dare try anything. It would just be a suicide mission. With Ophis standing on Takumi's side, coming here to make trouble was asking to die.
So, everything wrapped up peacefully this time.
When it was over, Takumi started chatting with Azazel.
"After going to Heaven, I finally understand why you fell. I get it now!"
Takumi said this with a perfectly straight face.
Azazel's eyes lit up.
"Right? Who wouldn't get confused living up there? Except those blockheads still on top!!"
Michael's lips twitched at their banter. These two…
"Exactly~! They just don't get it."
Takumi totally agreed. With so many beautiful angel girls around, who wouldn't get distracted? He was just a regular guy—not like Michael, who only ever thought about fulfilling the Lord's tasks. Takumi and Azazel really clicked, and they soon found themselves off in a corner talking about their favorite types of girls.
With the agreement signed, things were pretty much over. People began to leave. Some angels left right after the agreement was done. Azazel chatted with Takumi for a while, building rapport, and then got ready to head back to handle fallen angel affairs.
"Mr. Takumi, I'll be going as well. Once you've settled your business, come to Heaven and take Gabriel with you. She's ready anytime."
Michael also said his farewells, telling Takumi to visit Heaven again when he was ready.
Takumi nodded.
"Sure! I'll come by then."
Michael nodded and left with the other angels.
With the angels and fallen angels gone, only the devils remained. Sirzechs and the other Maou didn't stay much longer either. They'd gotten plenty out of this meeting and were ready to go. Some Sacred Gear holders were waiting to be reincarnated too.
As night fell, everything finally wound down.
Takumi, Kaguya, and Akeno gathered together again.
By now, Kaguya had made herself at home here. After bathing that night, she wore pajamas she'd somehow gotten from who-knows-where.
Seeing her like this, Takumi was puzzled.
"Aren't you planning to go back yet?" Had she just decided to party here forever?
He'd been here for nearly a week already, but Kaguya-hime had been hanging around the whole time—was that really okay?
"Don't worry, I told Eirin I'd be away for a while. As long as it's not a year or two, it's fine."
She was totally calm—not worried at all.
Hearing that, Takumi twitched his lips.
"I bet she's not as calm as you are. If a total shut-in suddenly left for so long, Yagokoro Eirin would definitely be freaking out."
"Hmph! As long as I don't bring back a kid, she won't worry. Dummy glue, moe Akeno~!"
Kaguya was completely confident. Do you know Eirin better, or do I?
She shot Takumi a look. Takumi grinned.
"Bringing a kid home? Not a bad idea. But are you sure you can even have kids? Honestly, you Lunarians are pretty convenient. If it's about kidneys, you could probably do unlimited transplants, right?"
Takumi couldn't help but marvel at Kaguya. If people in his previous life knew about someone like her, they'd be thrilled. Unlimited kidneys!!
Hearing Takumi's words, Kaguya looked at him blankly.
"Are you a devil or what? I might not be scared of losing my kidneys, but even thinking about it is creepy!! How do you even come up with this stuff?"
Kaguya shuddered.
"Alright, let's stop talking about scary things. Takumi-kun, when are you heading back?"
Akeno quickly broke up the strange conversation, steering things back on track.
"Soon. Tomorrow I'll make a quick trip to the exe world. I'll take care of what's left of the exe stuff in this world, then I can pretty much head back."
Takumi answered honestly.
His next step was to fulfill his promise to Heaven.
"Do you need to visit the Underworld? We've got a lot of knowledge too."
Rias chimed in then. Wouldn't Takumi visit the Underworld?
There was a lot to learn there, after all.
Takumi shrugged.
"Honestly, everything you guys have is in Heaven already. So I've got it all. Like the Power of Destruction, for example~!"
He demonstrated as he spoke. Rias was left with a big question mark.
"That fast?"
"No need to be so surprised. Even if you're devils, the God of the Bible is basically your faction's top dog. You're all part of the Bible God's world. So it makes sense she'd have your legacy too. After all, you've been fighting for years. Did you really think the God of the Bible couldn't figure out your secrets?"
Takumi grinned at Rias's stunned look.
"No need to act so surprised just because you've never seen the wider world."
