79 Chapter 79: Clue To Finding A Dragon

Alex woke up, as usual, prying himself from Aura and Tosca's grasp, then went to the bathroom for a good long shower.

Opening the tap, he let the boiling hot water, fall upon his shoulders. It used to be one of his favorite things in the world feeling the hot water pour down on his shoulders and flow down his body as if taking all his worries and fatigue with it.

After finishing his thirty-minute shower, he went downstairs to get himself a cup of coffee. Arriving in the kitchen he saw Aura still in her nightdress busy making breakfast while a hot cup of freshly brewed coffee stood at the corner of the kitchen table waiting for him.

"Mourning", Alex said picking up the cup and taking a sip, sighing afterward in contentment.

"Morning Master, sleep well?", Aura asked happily as she scrambled some eggs.

"Not bad, where's Tosca?"

"Still sleeping, we stayed up late yesterday night"

"Ok", Alex left the kitchen and went to sit at the dining table, waiting for his breakfast to be served.

Waiting for his breakfast Alex enjoyed his coffee while thinking about what he could do throughout the day to keep himself busy. He thought about the previous night when he confronted Rias and her peerage.

'I might have been a bit hard on them, they are only kids after all. I just hope this will scare the laziness out of that redhead so that she could more easily tackle the obstacles ahead. I don't want to involve myself in every little squabble of there's, but I also don't want to watch from the sidelines like those good for nothing devil kings and other heads of the three factions. Who the hell sends children to fight their fights.'

"Here you are Master"

Alex watched the plate of scrambled eggs sausage and bacon that Aura placed in front of him, he was no gourmet of the culinary arts but even he knew that the food would taste delicious just by looking at it and smelling the aroma it gave of.

"Thankyou Aura, it looks delicious", after saying his thanks Alex dug in, enjoying his food while Aura watched from the side her smiling growing larger as she saw how much Alex enjoyed her Cooking.

Alex just finished his breakfast when Tosca stumbled into the dining room and took her seat next to Alex, Aura left for the kitchen and soon returned with another plate with the same contents as Alex's as well as another cup of coffee. She placed it in front of Tosca, who thanked her before starting with her breakfast.

After Breakfast Alex decided to enjoy some reading on the balcony.

...

Sitting at a desk with loads of documents piled all over it, a crimson-haired man sat going through reports. With each report read his frown became deeper and deeper. With a hopeless sigh, he asked,

"Just who are you?"

The previous night he got an urgent call from his little sister, in which she complained about how she and her peerage nearly died at the hands of some unknown man.

Being the current Lucifer and head of the underworld he did not think anyone would be so bold as to attack his little sister, events proofed him wrong, at first, he thought of bringing her back from the human world but she protested and even threatened him so, in the end, he could only comply with her wishes.

Still, this event bothered him greatly so he sends a few devils to scour the whole of Kuoh town, in the end he found nothing other than a few stray devils. Just where had this person come from? What were his intentions? It felt so frustrating not being able to just blow away his troubles with a bit of magic, not only didi he not know where this hidden foe was, he didn't even know how strong he was.

He thought about having Rias and her peerage give details of how he looked, but when they tried to recall they all came up with a different appearance, Akeno even said it was a woman and not a man, this left Sirzechs, currently the most powerful devil alive, helpless.

"Grayfia", he said listlessly

"Yes", spoke the silver-haired beauty in maids dress.

"What are your thoughts about this mysterious perpetrator"

Thinking for a while Grayfia replied, "He is a powerful individual, but it seems that he might have some sort of relationship with Rias or someone close to her or else there would be no reason for him to say the words he did."

"Mhhh", Sirzechs hummed in agreement, he had similar thoughts but having someone thinking the same thing helped solidify his conjectures.

"Have everyone return, there is no need for further investigation"

"As you Command", Grayfia bowed a little before contacting the scouts sent out to scour Kuoh and having them return.

Taking a new set of documents from the neverending pile, Sirzechs gave another hopeless sigh, but for a different reason this time, staring at the never-ending piles of paperwork he felt his heart constrict, he even took a peek at Grayfia who was standing nearby.

Everyone thought that she was staying by his side to help him as his Queen and wife but the truth was she was watching over him to make sure he did his job properly, even trying to cheat just a little would be responded with severe force. Sirzechs had luckily gotten used to getting beaten by her, whether it was a good thing or not he didn't know but at least he was hardier than most men.

Reading what stood on the cover of the new document he just got, it was a rather thick intelligence report its title, "Intelligence concerning an organization known as Samsara.", Sefrzechs eyes shined in curiosity. Turning the page he started reading it but soon lost interest as the whole first page was the agent explaining that most of the report was made up of multiple conjectures based on Information he had gained and could thus not be confirmed.

"Why would you even submit it then!", he burst out in rage, but soon calmed down and continued reading. Sirzechts was literally about to explode when he read some of the conjectures the agent came up with but froze when he read the last page, "Members confirmed to be part of Samsara", but that was not what really shocked Sirezechs it was the first name written on the page.

"Mournomon..."
