**************************************************

Floating around in a space of various colors where gravity and distance don't matter there was a pale silver mist in the shape of a sphere that can't be seen through. If anyone could see through it they would see that it had multiple layers with silvery mist at the top, then crimson red energy, followed by a golden-colored light and a dark-colored light.

Obviously, the space is the dimensional gap and the colors of light are barriers protecting what's inside. What's inside you ask? Obviously, it's a meeting between the three races and me, the 1st Progenitor or vampire king.

"Before we begin I would like to welcome you Ashera Tepes. It's a pleasure to be working with you." A redheaded man said to me with a warm smile on his face. In the anime, it was never revealed but I can feel it, he is strong. Not strong enough to kill me but if I fought him we would fight for days without a real winner.

"It's nice to meet you as well Sirzechs, I've heard many things about you from Serafall. Most of them good don't worry." I said with a smile as his face twitched at the thought of what Serafall could have said to me.

It's been just over a month since I met Serafall and Gabriel and just recently agreed to join the alliance so color me surprised when a few days later I was invited to a secret meeting with the leaders of the three races. Apparently, they meet often to discuss various topics that affect the three races with this meeting being especially important.

"So you're the 1st Progenitor huh? It's nice to meet you, I'm Azazel the Governor-General of the Fallen Angels." Azazel said on my left side of this round table with an unusually serious look on his face while I just nodded in response.

"It's good to finally see you Ashera. I've heard a lot about you from Gabriel. Oh yes if you have the time please feel free to visit her. You should have been given a special pass from Gabriel correct?" Michael said with a warm smile on his face and once again I nodded in response and we all looked towards Sirzechs the one who called for the meeting.

"Now that the pleasantries are over I believe it's time to focus. I believe you all should have heard of the group calling themselves the Khaos Brigade? They are a recently appearing group but we have been able to connect them to various mysteries from the past. We do not know their goal but we know that they have many connections within every faction. Does anyone have anything to add so far?" Sirzechs said with a serious look on his face showing the threat that is the Khaos Brigade.

"I've had a run-in with a few of their members. The strongest of them almost always said the same thing about being granted power before being consumed by some kind of black snake. I tried to catch it but it went through all the barriers I could make with no problems. I looked into the remaining energy signal and it matches with Ophis, I just don't understand why she would become a terrorist." Azazel said with a sigh with Michael nodding his head with a worried look on his face next to him. Seems like Ophis is already causing headaches.

"I know a bit about their structure. The day before I became the ruler of vampires I was attacked by Rizevim Livan Lucifer." I declared, instantly getting their attention. Rizevim isn't an opponent to be underestimated and if he has a connection with Khaos Brigade it makes things infinitely worse. Rizevim is a man who schemes in the background while controlling all the events to his desire, making him a dangerous foe.

"Lucky I managed to force him to escape and take his arm but afterward, I've been attacked by the Khaos Brigade many times, or at least one of the groups making it up. From what I've gathered they have three main groups. The Old Satan Faction which is made up of the descendants of the original four satans, the Hero faction which is solely made up of the descendants or reincarnation of heroes, Qlippoth which Rizevim Livan Lucifer runs, and Nilrem a group of stray magicians. There may be more but those are the main three I have been able to discover." I said before taking a sip of the tea on my table while they all take in the info that I've gathered. By the way, this is all verified information from the various Khaos Brigade attackers since I'm not sure the anime will be the same and things could have changed. For all I know there could be a vampire faction because of my actions.

"I see. Thank you for the information Ashera. We'll send people to confirm the information shortly. If nobody has anything to add we'll go on to the next topic, the Longinus. We devils do not have any Longinus as far as I am aware but one or two may be hiding, something we are looking into." Sirzechs said with a smile on his face, it's always amazing to see the devils having a lack of high-level strength other than Sirzechs and Ajuka yet they are so prideful, though the vampires were the same not long ago.

"We have the wielders of the Divine Dividing as well as Canis Lykaon and Absolute Demise, though the wielders of Canis Lykaon and Absolute Demise are more like an affiliated group than direct subordinates." Azazel said with a sigh, most likely at the trouble that Vali caused or perhaps the strongest group in Grigori manning a bar instead of working.

"We have the wielder of the Zenith Tempest under us. Currently, he is an exorcist under the church but we have plans to reincarnate him as an angel when the Brave Saint system is complete." Michael said with a smile on his face.

"On our side, we have the Sephiroth Grail and a sacred gear that may become the 14th Longinus." I said in complete seriousness as all their faces gained a look of shock. It's been hundreds of years since a Longinus class sacred gear was found so it should go to show how rare it is. Speaking of which neither has actually awakened their sacred gear so I should probably help them with that soon. The only reason can be so sure about it at all is because I can sense the aura from them surrounding their bodies.

"What!? How are you sure!?" Azazel basically screamed in excitement with the other two looking at me in shock. I guess as a Sacred Gear researcher this is the best thing to hear so it's understandable.

"The sacred gear contains the consciousness of the Evil God, Balor. If it awakens it will definitely become a Longinus." I said while chomping on some snacks I brought while handing some to Azazel, he, however, brought out a bottle of a famous wine that you can't go without hearing about at least once making the other two in the room sigh and give him the 'We're in a meeting look' but in the end accepting the wine.

"Let's take a break from all that complicated stuff! The birth of a new Longinus is something that should be celebrated so let's relax." Azazel said with an excited smile on his face while we all took a break.
