Chapter 172: The Tricked Azazel
🕑 Added 2025-04-04 10:44:24 +0000 UTC“Give you the Red Dragon Emperor’s gauntlet for research...”
Blake raised an eyebrow, a little surprised inside.
He had only visited the Silva family yesterday and used the gauntlet once, yet today Azazel had already gotten the news?
“Don’t look at me like that. Someone must have spread your information completely. There are a lot of people who are very interested in you.”
Noticing the change in Blake's expression, Azazel still wore a wicked smile, speaking carelessly.
“I see.”
Upon hearing this, Blake immediately understood everything. He had killed Cao Cao and taken the True Longinus Spear, so it was no surprise that the Khaos Brigade couldn't sit still. Perhaps they wanted to attract some powerful people interested in him to either kill or trouble him. The mad Sacred Gear enthusiast in front of him, Azazel, was one such example.
“Now I understand the situation. However, such matters are of no concern to me.”
Then Blake gave Azazel a sharp look, and his aura began to rise, making the surrounding space feel somewhat oppressive.
“If this is your sincerity, then I don’t mind taking some interest from you right now.”
“Sigh, really, today’s youth, such a hot temper.”
Upon hearing this, Azazel immediately sighed.
“However, Raynare’s matter and Kokabiel’s affair, plus this sudden visit, are indeed my fault. How about this? I’ll fully assist you in forging three artificial Sacred Gears as compensation, how about that?”
Then, Azazel became unusually serious, raising three fingers, and said solemnly.
“Sacred Gear can still be forged?”
Hearing this, Koneko was stunned, surprised.
“Although only gods could forge them in the past, after studying Sacred Gears for so long, I have developed related abilities. Of course, things at the Longinus Class Sacred Gear and some powerful complex Sacred Gears are still beyond my capability. So, Blake, how about you join me in research? With the Red Dragon Emperor’s gauntlet information, I’ll definitely forge even stronger Sacred Gears.”
Azazel said confidently, and at the end, he looked at Blake with fervent eyes.
This made Koneko silent for a moment.
She suddenly recalled what Kokabiel had said—Azazel was obsessed with Sacred Gears, and collecting and forging them had become a pathological obsession.
“Fine, I’ll believe you once. But, you won’t get my cooperation for free. One last thing, three Sacred Gears are not enough. I want six Sacred Gears.”
At this moment, Blake finally spoke, his tone firm and unyielding.
“Eh...! You really are asking for a lot. Sacred Gear aren’t easy to forge. And those rare materials aren’t easy to find. I said three pieces is already generous, but you’re asking for double...”
Upon hearing this, even the unscrupulous Fallen Angel Governor couldn’t help but twitch his mouth, feeling a pang in his chest.
“That’s your problem. It must be six. One that can carry and enhance destruction-type magical power, one to enhance lightning attributes, one for strength-enhancing gauntlets, two to enhance speed, and the last one, an automatic defense-type Sacred Gear. That’s all my demands.”
Before Azazel could finish speaking, Blake interrupted him, stating his requirements in a calm and unhurried manner.
This made Azazel’s face darken. This was basically a robbery, as if Blake thought forging Sacred Gears was just assembling toys?!
Knowledge, materials, and energy were all essential. Even for him, successfully forging one moderately strong Sacred Gear would be quite an accomplishment. But now Blake had laid out so many demands, it was as if he wanted to bankrupt him!
“Azazel, I heard from Kokabiel that you’ve studied Sacred Gears, collected and forged various kinds of them. I think these shouldn’t be a problem for you, right? So, let’s settle on this.”
In the next moment, Blake spoke again, causing Azazel’s face to stiffen, feeling his stomach churn, and his grin disappeared, replaced by a frustrated expression.
“Hey, hey, hey, Blake kid, when did I agree...”
Seeing that Blake was getting more unreasonable and cutting off his escape routes, Azazel quickly tried to interrupt. He feared that if he let it go on, he would be left with nothing.
“Ah, today is my lucky day, meeting the sincere apology of the Fallen Angel Governor. In that case, at the upcoming meeting, I won’t bring up Kokabiel’s matter or cause trouble for the Fallen Angels, and I’ll just keep observing. What do you think?”
However, before Azazel could recover, Blake smiled again, speaking with a tone that made it clear he had already trapped Azazel.
“Ah, today’s youth, really don’t understand how to be considerate of their elders. Really, with such strong power, you don’t care about the consequences, but even your words are so sharp.”
Saying this, Azazel’s face was full of sorrow. The implication was clear: he had given in. He was afraid that if he continued, Blake would make even more demands, and he would be totally wiped out.
He didn’t expect that after all these years, after flirting with Valkyries and even Odin not being able to do anything to him, he would be completely dominated by a seventeen-year-old brat. What a twist of fate.
Azazel looked at the smiling Blake and weakly thought to himself.
“Since it’s settled, let’s play first. Well, dear Governor, would you like to play? One Sacred Gear per game, quite a bargain, right? Perhaps you could win them back.”
At this moment, Blake, full of energy, looked at Azazel and said.
“No need, I have things to do. I’ll be leaving now.”
Upon hearing this, Azazel’s face immediately darkened, and with a twitch of his mouth, he fled the scene. He had decided there was no need to stay—he needed to avoid this cunning guy.
“It’s a pity. I was hoping to get a couple more Sacred Gears as backups.”
Looking at Azazel fleeing, Blake murmured.
“Thank you, Senpai.”
Hearing this, Koneko couldn't help but show a smile, then sincerely tugged at Blake’s sleeve.
“Koneko, we don’t need to thank each other. Alright, although something unexpected happened, let’s play now.”
Blake gently patted Koneko’s head, then sat down in front of the game machine, removing the barrier around them and said with a smile.
“Mm!”
Upon hearing this, Koneko’s usually expressionless face broke into another smile as she nodded and sat next to Blake. Meanwhile, Kanna sat on Blake’s lap.
Thus, the very noticeable silver-haired trio began to happily play in the joyful atmosphere.
