"Yes, but you're giving it a go." Sirzechs replied. "That's what's important, Rex." He finished his tea, and handed the cup back to Akeno. "Now." He created a transportation-circle, and gestured for Rex and Palutena to step into it, which they did. "Let's go."

Sirzechs activated the transportation-circle, and one flash of light later, Rex and Palutena were standing outside a gigantic castle, which spiralled to dizzying heights, and featured many turrets and towers.

"Doesn't that castle look a bit like Hogwarts, Rex?" Palutena whispered to her husband, who looked up at the castle himself.

"Yeah, it kinda does." Rex replied. "Seems J.K. Rowling had some connections to Devils. I guess that's why Harry Potter is insufferably popular."

As Sirzechs, with Rex and Palutena behind him, walked forward, the enormous double-doors to the castle opened, and Grayfia stood in the doorway.

"Good morning, Lord Sirzechs, Lord Rex, Lady Palutena." She said, in the fomal voice that Rex remembered from two centuries ago, the voice that Grayfia used while on the job as a maid for the Gremory Clan. "Lady Rias and her peerage have just arrived, and they're waiting for you, along with L- Millicas, Lord Zeoticus and Lady Venelana, in the living room."

"Ah. Thank you, Grayfia." Sirzechs replied, as he, Rex and Palutena walked into the castle. One thing that Rex couldn't help but immediately notice that there were more butlers and maids walking around the place than he found comfortable. He rubbed his hands on his jeans, as they began to sweat slightly.

"Rex, can I ask you something?" Sirzechs asked, in a whisper, as the three beings to be exact, one Devil, one Nephalem and one Goddess who was doing an excellent job in keeping her Divine aura under wraps. 

"That woman that was serving me tea... I could sense she's a Fallen Angel/Human Hybrid. Care to explain?"

"Later." Rex replied, out of the corner of his mouth. "I hate repeating myself to people."

"Fair enough." Sirzechs replied, nodding in acceptance. "But can I ask something else: Does she live with you?"

"Yes." Rex replied. "Along with four other women, not including Palutena."

"Oh, so you've got a harem?" Sirzechs chuckled. "That's nice. If not a little unsurprising. I had one myself, before becoming the Lucifer, you know."

"TMI, Dad." Rex mumbled, uncomfortably, as they kept walking, until they heard a cry of "Father!"

Rex and Palutena looked up to see what looked like a short-haired clone of Sirzechs with red eyes running forward, and embracing his father in a hug.

"Hey, Millicas." Sirzechs gently hugged the young boy. "You've been waiting for us?"

"Yes!" Millicas hopped back, and tried to peer around Sirzechs. "Where is he?"

"Right here." Sirzechs stepped aside, letting Millicas clap eyes on Rex for the first time, and vice versa. Millicas thought for a second for what to say, before clasping his hands in front of him and bowing his head.

"Hello, big brother Rex. I'm your younger brother, Millicas Gremory. It's nice to meet you."

"So, you're my little bro, huh?" Rex smirked down at Millicas, who didn't even reach his navel, in terms of height. "Looks like you took after Dad more than Mom."

"He's cute." Palutena remarked, as Sirzechs led Rex into the living room. As Palutena and Millicas followed, Rex clapped eyes on his biological family, for the first time in two centuries.

Sat on one sofa, alone, was Rias Gremory, his aunt, who he'd met on the night he had taken on the mission to deal with Apoge and the other Stray Fallen. Behind her, he presumed, was her peerage.

As Rex' eyes idly passed over Rias, he absently acknowledged that Rias, despite him being 15 times her senior in age, that is, his aunt was an attractive young woman, worthy of being compared to Akeno.

Though he knew full-well that the views of humans on this particular matter were very different to his own, Rex himself had zero problem with incest. 

This was because he knew that through the Demonic Genesys Ritual that the original Lucifer, former King of Devils, Grayfia's father and Rex' grandfather, and Lilith, Queen of the Sex Demons and his grandmother, on Grayfia's side, had used to create the original 72 Pillar Heads, along with the first 7,405,926 Devils of Hell.

From the dust that made up the ground of the Underworld, made every born Devil Rex highly disliked the term 'Pure-Blooded Devil' as he'd actually done an experiment that involved extracting some blood from a 'Pure-Blood' Devil, and doing the same to a Reincarnated Devil, and comparing them. He found that there were no differences whatsoever biologically related. 

So, hypothetically, any member of the Gremory Clan, Rex included, would be related to any member of the Phenex or Belial Clans.

The same went for born Angels, and by extention, born Fallen Angels, as they came from the Creation Ritual that the Biblical God, Palutena's father, had used, and continued to use up until His death during the Great War of the Three Factions, to Create Angels some of which Fell and became Fallen Angels.

Though something that Rex always wondered about was, since he had somewhat gone through Palutena's Creation Ritual, and became part-Angel, did that make him partly related to all the born Angels? Like Michael, Uriel, and Gabriel?

Eh, maybe.

'Hm.' Rex thought, as he looked over each of Rias' peerage members in turn. 'White-haired girl. Definitely a Sacred Gear wielder. Given that she's right behind Rias, she's almost certainly her Queen. Another white-haired girl. Nekoshou. Probably sealed, considering her lack of a figure. Most likely a Rook thanks to that. Blondie boy. Calluses on hands, telltale signs of experience in sword-combat. Also a Sacred Gear-wielder. Probably sword-based. Certainly a Knight.'

He then set his eyes on Isane, who was trying to keep her eyes off him.
