What is happening?

As everyone ran over to him, Alex was in a bad mood. First he couldn't find the holy grail on Rizevim, and now he saw the mass produced evil dragons disappear, meaning that instead of simply not getting it yet, he must have already passed it off to someone else. Since they were supposed to move in about two days, this also mean they were changing their plans quickly. As he was dealing with Rizevim, Crom Cruach also disappeared, but Alex wasn't too concerned with that as he wasn't actually evil. When he reached him Azazel demanded with rage on his face,

"What happened?!" Alex frowned at him, since it seemed he thought he had something to do with the current situation. He then spat out,

"I killed Rizevim, but he didn't have the holy grail on him. They used it on the vampires of the Tepes and Carmella factions that wanted to be rid of their weaknesses, to turn them into mass produced evil dragons. Now they have an army, several powerful evil dragons, the holy grail, AND chances are Rizevim will be revived since he must've already passed it to someone else." At his words were several looks of confusion, and in Vali's case, rage. He stormed up and said,

"YOU ALREADY KILLED HIM?!" Alex didn't let this get to him, as he knew one of Vali's main goals was to kill his grandfather. He laughed and said,

"Didn't you hear me? They have the holy grail, and it seemed as if they expected me. Chances are you'll get to see your grandfather again, so don't worry, you'll get your shot." Vali looked conflicted at his words, but before he could say anything more Azazel came forward again,

"What do you mean they have the holy grail? They can't extract it without killing Valerie, and she's right here." At his words Valerie stepped forward, she looked a little better and more in control with her actions, as her brother was most likely one of ones turned into a mass produced dragon, but most of the emptiness was till there. Alex turned to Azazel and said,

"It's a subspecies, she has three holy grails in her body. Rizevim already extracted one, which is part of the reason she's so bad right now; and Marius was going to extract another soon, which would have rendered her comatose." At his words Azazel looked as if he had an epiphany, and started muttering to himself. Gasper stepped forward, and asked,

"Is she going to be alright?" Alex sighed, but smiled and said,

"Yes, as long as we can retrieve the other grail that they took, it should help her. It might also help her if there's a strong guy she can depend on." As he heard his words Gasper looked both relieved, yet conflicted. He still hadn't shown her his "real" form yet and still looked like a girl, but the look of determination showed in his eyes, as he decided to be come a reliable man for her. Alex was called conflicted though, as it was during the would have been fight that Gasper reached balance breaker. Maybe they could get him to try next time. He then turned to Azazel,

"While we try to get the grail they took, perhaps a fragment of the original would help her recover faster at the moment?" Azazel looked as if he had another epiphany, and started talking to himself again. At that moment the Sitri magic circle appeared, and Loup Garou, Bennia, and Elmenhilde showed up. The vampire in question looked around with a devastated look on her face, as now even her own faction betrayed the vampires. Alex looked at her and said,

"I could have been worse, they could have started killing the rest of the vampires before leaving." If it was even possible, she turned even paler at his words. They started the preparations for returning to the Carmella faction, as they now had no reason to stay here.

"Valerie, come with us, I'll help you get better, and we can do many things outside. We can walk in the sun, go swimming, go to amusement parks, and tons of other stuff." Rias and everyone else also said they'll do many things with Valerie, and Gasper looked at Alex but didn't say anything, as if wondering if she could go with them in the future. Alex nodded his head slightly, and a smile spread across Gaspers face. But as they were about to leave, someone came out of the castle. Gasper looked at his father, and paled, but filled himself with resolution, and stepped forward,

"I'm no longer a member of the house of Vladi, or the vampires, I'm a guy of the Gremory family." And with just that turned and left him standing there, not saying anything.

***

The next two days were quite uneventful, as they waited for the damages of the vampire nation to be totaled, and for words from the alliance, which was taking an unusually long time. In that time Alex caught Kiba up on Asora, and decided to wait for Valerie until she was more stable, or moved there full time. Elmenhilde and the other vampire went through quite a personality change, as if the situation of their own clansmen turning on them and getting turned into mass produced evil dragons humbled them. After the two days though they heard from the alliance, and what Alex heard caused him to go into shock.

"THEY STOLE AGREAS?!" Azazel shouted while talking to the magic hologram Sirzechs. Everyone was dumbfounded, but Alex himself couldn't believe it. That wasn't supposed to happen for a while, but as he thought about what happened here and how they moved, he realized something, they were purposely changing things so he couldn't predict them. As he realized that he looked at Rosswiesse in concern, he knew they would go after her soon for her knowledge about trihexia's seals, and as he thought there was also the attack on heaven soon.

(A.N. So in case you haven't noticed I'm speeding things up a bit, one reason is because the dxd world is taking a long time. So I want to ask you guys, I already decided trihexia will be the last antagonist before leaving, after that will just be slice of life chapters, and the Azazel cup. So do you guys want the Azazel cup? If not then even though it'll still be here it won't be focused on, and just referenced every now and then during the slice of life chapters, maybe the more important events like the start and ending will be written, but not every part.)
