I kept on reading the files about .45 Calibre Warks and their works, and I was surprised of the genius mind of Nell Goldstein. To upgrade a shotgun in ways that can be called impossible. She changed the pellet of the shotgun to delayed explosion, giving it the range of a pistol before exploding and the shrapnel of the pellet to hit those in the way.(Just BS about guns)

Kuroka then entered the room and I put down the file. Kuroka was wondering why she was called because its her first time to be called by me specifically.

"Hey, Kuroka. I remember when I saved you and your sister, I gave you pretty much a good chunk of time to hide her, I also teleported you to a nearby town near the Agares domain, why is she in the Gremory Domain? It was pretty far from Agares' domain right?" I asked her as I'm curious as to how Shirone became Rias' rook.

"What do you mean Gremory? I think I went deeper in the Agares' Domain you're talking about but we got lost and we just found ourselves in a shabby cottage with a kid with a black hair and violet eyes, I think he was with her mother? If I remember correctly his mother was sickly with brown hair and violet eyes just like him. I asked Shirone to be in their care because I have no money to take care of her. The kid was about to decline when her mother spoke up and hugged Shirone, accepting her. I also sensed people coming in my direction I directly flee but not before looking at the intruder and it was a red-haired child. I sensed that the guardian of the girl would sense me if I kept being there, so I went back and saw Sirzechs and her queen battered and defeated by you." She said as she recalled what happened on that fateful day.

"I see." I understood what just happened. The sickly woman must be Misla Bael and her son Sairaorg, Kuroka left Shirone in their care but with the entrance of Rias' it all changed. If I assumed things... when Misla fell into a coma, Sairaorg can't take care of Shirone alone and 'maybe' Rias offered him help in caring for her as Shirone became her playmate.

I then shook it off my mind as I waved Kuroka out and think of a surprise for my brother as it will be our first time meeting. I then had an evil smirk as I was planning how to troll my brother.

Meanwhile: Akeno POV

Mother brought me to the underworld when I was sleeping. I complained to my mother as we don't need to leave our home, maybe Father was in there searching for us. She just shook her head and explained that we are already here. We still lived in a shrine in the underworld. A maid named Grayfia came to visit us often and asked our well-being. I miss, Vergil and Mayumi. Will they miss me too? Vergil... is a hard nut to crack, but Mayumi will surely miss me.

I was saddened of what happened today and was about to take a bath when a note fell from my dress. It was a simple message but I know who put it.

'Be strong, strong enough to protect yourself. And when the time comes, we'll meet again.'

She understood what Vergil meant, they will always be hunted because they were weak, but if she becomes strong, she can drive them away.

The next morning, a red-haired girl came to visit us with curiosity in her eyes, she was being followed by Grayfia. She introduced herself as Rias and invited me to play. I'm not in the mood to play, I miss Mayumi. I miss...Vergil. I then saw my mother looking at me with worried face as she said that I should play with her as she and Grayfia needs to talk.

"I hope you are enjoying your stay in the Gremory Domain. I also apologize deeply about the incident yesterday." She bowed her head to Shuri who didn't say anything as she regretted the fact of sacrificing her to obtain her daughter's loyalty. But Shuri being the kind-hearted she is, forgave her but the scar was engraved in her heart. She was also wondering what Vergil showed them yesterday, as she felt sinister in the presence of it.

I was playing with Rias but my mind was occupied with other thoughts.

'Strong, Stronger than anyone to drive away mine and mother's pursuers'

I looked at the maid, Grayfia who was with Rias when she came here. Mother said she is powerful in every aspect. I should learn from her. She thought as she started racking her brains on how to ask her to train her so she asked her mother about it and mother looked at Grayfia and she understood the meaning. 'Teach her as compensation.'

Grayfia nodded as it can at least appease Shuri for what happened.

A month has passed since the incident and I was being trained by Grayfia in controlling magic as we sparred and I sent her multiple lightning based attack. At first Rias joined them as she found it fun to bond with her new friend but soon stopped and just watched them train. She then asked me why I am doing such a boring and repetitive thing. I just said that I need it if I want to meet a certain person once more, I was regretting the fact that I didn't even get to say goodbye to him and Mayumi.

I know that Vergil won't lie to me and I know that we'll surely meet once more in the future.

---------------

Might be the final chapter for today. To be honest, lost motivation to write a chapter, I only managed to finish this chapter because I was writing this in my rest time and only finished it now. I slept early and woke up early only to find out that workplace demanded us to go to work early to fill up the work left by those who didn't go to work on their shift and now we're paying for it.

I'm pretty mad right now. I don't want to go out because of the virus problems and workplace suddenly demanded us to head to the office earlier than usual.

Anyway, enough about that it will only piss me off more.

Let me know your thoughts on the chapter. And let me know if there are typos or mistakes.
