Life In Dxd - Chapter 263
After Tatsuya told his demand their was some negotiation between him and Artemis who was intent on not letting him have the whole realm of the dead and in the end it settled with Tatsuya getting 2/3rd of the land in the end though with this too Artemis was not much satisfied but once Zeus told that this was the final she stepped down from the argument.
Apollon then contacted someone in Mt. Olympus telling them to prepare the necessary doc.u.ments for the following deal and once he was done he looked at Tatsuya and said, “Well then I hope that you are fine with this, we will contact you in a day or two so where do you want to finalize the deal.”
“Hmm, how about Kuoh just give me call before coming i will set up the arrangements a cording to that.”
“Hmm fine, Kuoh it is then. Now heading to the second part. What about him.” said, Apollon and looked towards Hades.
Tatsuya looked at Hades as well and said, “Since he has no subordinates right now all of us can say that his duties are currently not need at all right, since cocytus is sealed tightly and I too would make sure that it remains the same as well. So currently Mt. Olympus is not in need of his duties right?”
At this all of them looked towards Zeus, since it would be his word which will tell whether Hades was needed somewhere or not.
Zeus then folded his arms and closed his eyes thinking about something and once he opened his eyes he looked back at Hades and said, “Nope, he is currently free from any work, and since training new Grimm reaper would take a while I don’t think that he would be having any duties for quite a while.”
Tatsuya nodded his head and said, “As I thought, then would it be fine for him to work under me, till everything is back to normal. Since he has both the knowledge and experience of living here and the terrain of the region, he would be quite helpful to me. I even allow him to find some new recruits for the Grimm reapers and train them for the job. He will be quite helpful to me and my business here, and you lose nothing in it as well. Of course since he is a god I would not make him a slave since it would reflect badly on your pantheon’s image but his powers would be sealed and he would be working like a normal employee. Of course that means salary and living facilities as well.”
Hearing that almost all of them looked at Tatsuya with a surprised look on their faces but soon a few of them remembered that even Loki was working under him and has not been making trouble since then.
The three gods then started discussing amongst themselves and in the end even Hades was asked about this or he wants some other punishment if he finds working under Tatsuya disgraceful.
But to their surprise Hades nodded his head accepting Tatsuya’s offer and said, “I am going to be punished anyway, so being in a place that I am already used to is better than being in some prison or getting sealed off somewhere unknown and since my powers would be getting sealed in either case it doesn’t matter anyway.”
Hearing his answer the Olympian gods sighed and approved of Hades working under Tatsuya with his powers being sealed off as his punishment. Their were some other conditions added like Hades having no relation with Mt. Olympus during the period he was working under Tatsuya so as to not let sensitive information get out and all.
Once they were done the Olympian gods stood up and said their byes to one another. Zeus even invited Azazel to go be him a ‘tour’ in his region, but because of the work he had to decline the offer.
Soon all of them left and once they were gone Tatsuya looked at Hades and removed the chains that were binding him though a small golden chain was wrapped around on of his arms like a bracelet.
“Well then Hades-kun let me get you aquatinted with your new boss.” He then looked at Sirzechs and Azazel who too were now exhausted because of their own deals that they did to get their compensation for the attack in their territory and said, “Looks like it went well for all of us, huh.”
Sirzechs facepalmed and said, “Yeah, but we still don’t have any links to Khaos Brigade and since you mentioned that they have the holy grail, the people who were defeated would be coming back to life soon as well. *Sigh* it’s really frustrating.”
Azazel nodded and said, “Yeah, that it is, but it cannot be helped, all we can do is be prepared….Let’s hold a meet to call some new factions into the treaty. What do you say Sirzechs.”
Sirzechs gave it a thought and then glanced at Tatsuya and made a displeased expression on his face, “I think it would be good…..Don’t want to have help of his teammates once again. Having more allies….no having more “safe” allies would be better in a situation like what happend recently. If they can do it once, they can do it again as well.”
Azazel smirked and nodded his head and them said, “Well than it looks like we are about to get busy. So where should we hold the conference?….You fine with us keeping it in Kuoh?” and glanced towards Tatsuya.
Tatsuya thought about it for a while and said, “Just tell me when and where, and I will look after the arrangements. Currently I don’t know what would happen if there are some spies mixed in your subordinates. Make sure to check them on a regular basis as well.”
“Oh, you agreed rather easily, huh. Well better for us. And yeah, it is quite problematic since a lot of devils who were in support bit old Satan faction and were hiding are slowly showing themselves now. Best of luck Sirzechs.” and then teleported away.
Seeing him teleport Tobio did the same as well and was soon followed by Dulio who bowed his head once again to thank Tatsuya and then went back to heaven.
Sirzechs gave a tired sigh after recalling Azazel saying best of luck to him and slumped his shoulders imagining how much work it is going to be to check the entire devil territory. ‘I will drag that holed up green haired genius out of his lab if he tries to ditch this work on me.’ and then teleported as well.
Tatsuya and Rossweisse who were the only ones who were left behind along with their new employee looked at eachother and then Tatsuya threw a master ball at Hades who soon got covered in red light and was then absorbed by the ball.
Rossweisse saw this scene with a deadpan look on his face and asked, “Was it really necessary?”
“Hmmm….Nope but Loki would have been upset if he found out that the one who is going to work under him is not captured by the ball. Oh speaking of capturing, here catch-” and threw another ball towards Rossweisse who caught the ball with a surprised look on her face thinking that she was about to be sealed in it as well, but nothing like that happened much to her relief.
She then glared at Tatsuya saying why did he scared her to which Tatsuya just laughed and said, “There is no way I am going to catch one of my lovers like that.” Hearing which Rossweisse immediately had a deep blush on her face.
“Anyways, since you didn’t have a familiar, like the other take care of that. Samael is in there after all.”
“H-Huh by Samael do you mean the one which you captured a few days ago?!?!”
Tatsuya just nodded his head in response making Rossweisse a bit tense thinking about the being that was inside the small ball in her hand, but soon snapped out of it once she felt Tatsuya grabbing her hand and saying, “Anyway since we are already done with this, how about we take a day off and go on a date. What do you say Rose?”
Rossweisse who heard the suggestion was surprised and started to get embarrased but before she could say anything Tatsuya pulled her hand and teleported away leaving the whole Hades’s castle empty.
