Chapter 958 Narrowing the Gap Between Two Worlds

Kisuke wasn\'t fazed and replied, "Nothing much~ I\'m just really interested in your organization CrossXKiss (XxX) which has only two members, including you. And well... Your fake outward relationship with Ajuka-sama."

Mitsuya\'s expression immediately went neutral as he turned around to leave, "Nothing you should be concerned about."

"My~ You\'re already leaving? Why don\'t you have some tea first?"

Mitsuya stopped walking and turned to his side before grabbing one of the candies on display and tossing a coin to Kisuke, "We have nothing to talk about."

Kisuke caught the coin and watched Mitsuya leave until he disappeared from his sight. He then opened his hand and took a look at the coin before smiling, \'That\'s enough for now.\'

These past few years, Kisuke wanted to figure out a few things and one of his investigations led him to the young man of Issei\'s age. Mitsuya was by no means an unknown person and was even openly hostile towards Ajuka\'s faction while also being labeled as dangerous by Grigori. However, Kisuke noticed a few discrepancies that led him to think that there was something else going on with their relationship that only Ajuka and Azazel knew.

Kisuke dugged up Mitsuya\'s past but he couldn\'t go any deeper because he didn\'t want to get noticed. Even then, he thought that his past was too \'empty\' and that even the information regarding previous owners of the Innovate Clear and Telos Karma before they were transferred to him are very \'thin\'.

At some point, Kisuke got a small clue, but that clue was enough for him to change his line of thinking toward Mitsuya and lured him to his shop to make sense of the young man. Although their exchange was short and it looks like he was avoiding a topic, Mitsuya still provided Kisuke with a way to contact him.

Kisuke kept the coin along with some of his important stuff and pulled out his smartphone. He navigated to the app that\'s connected to the measuring devices that were hidden all over his shop and looked through all the values he managed to pull from Mitsuya, \'...Hmmm... So it\'s not that he can\'t use their full capabilities because he\'s just their temporary owner like others have thought... These values, although not conclusive, still suggest that both Innovate Clear and Telos Karma are incomplete.\'

After sorting out the data he gathered, Kisuke went back to lying down and finally changed the channel, and this time, it was a news channel for the Japanese Network.

[...After days of waiting, we are finally going to meet the leaders of these mysterious beings that apparently have been hiding from most of us until three years ago.]

One of the news anchors said with a solemn expression.

[Here in Tokyo Dome, the leaders of the Underworld, Heaven, and the Grigori are going to address the current volatile situation of the whole world.]

For a few minutes, the news anchor summarized the current events that led to the current situation where one country could just suddenly explode into violence starting from when the Underworld suddenly announced the existence of Soul Gears and began distributing them to buyers.

It only took a few months before the Soul Gears became the mainstream equipment as they were much more reliable and easier to control than Sacred Gears. On top of that, it has a price unlike the latter so a faction only has to have money and influence to build an army.

But because of its loose regulations thanks to the Belial House\'s manipulations and the threat building up outside the barrier, each faction spared no effort to acquire these Soul Gears and even its manufacturing methods. Although they were unsuccessful with the latter even after receiving a blueprint through some means, the Soul Gears users soon spilled from the control of some factions due to their large numbers.

This spill then soon went over into the secular world where world leaders tried to take advantage of them to gain an upper hand against their competitors.

But because the Alliance wanted to bolster the world\'s strength, it was already too late when they did something to stop the oversupply of Soul Gears when the world leaders too started losing control of the army they didn\'t understand.

Just two years after its introduction, the Soul Gears had managed to enter the hands of normal people and appear in the Human World news.

To control the situation from declining further and add effective regulations since it was impossible to round up everyone who had them, the Alliance had no choice but to announce their existence and explain what these weapons were. Of course, doing that also had its own consequences, mainly, the rise of radical forces that wanted to go along with the new world order and those who rejected it.

Naturally, as the originator of these Soul Gears, the Belial House took the blame for its irresponsible distribution of the weapons. However, no real sanctions could be levied against them aside from being branded as villains. Even with the help of some of the top nobles in the Underworld because of the support of some Houses that invested in the project and the influence they\'d gathered through the same distribution.

Still, the power and security that the Soul Gears had was undeniable, and with them being a large portion of power that could fight against the Evies, they couldn\'t discard it. As long as the world is dependent on the Soul Gears, no one could really touch the Belial House.

It was then that flashes from the cameras illuminated the stage behind the news anchor before three figures stepped out. The first one was the twelve-winged Angel that was also known as the most beautiful flower of Heaven, Gabriel. Following closely behind her was a ten-winged Fallen Angel and the current Governor General of Grigori, Shemhazai.

And the last one to appear was not any less striking, a man in full crimson armor with green gems embedded on different parts of his armor. He\'s one of the current Devil Kings and in the Human world, nothing much was known about him aside from he\'s called Devil King Crimson or Crimson Heavenly Dragon.

It was the first time these three had appeared in the Human World, so they instantly sparked murmurs from the surroundings and those devout believers even started praying and crying at Gabriel\'s presence.

"Now then, I wonder what sort of play they are brewing? If they can\'t resolve the problem in one go, it\'s going to give them a headache in the future.", Kisuke muttered as he reached out for his snacks.
