"A perfectly good reason to let our youngest relative out of the protection of our territory for an extended period of time?"
The former Head said unamused. "At the same time that our Heir is also away from our direct watch?"
"Just because your mother was okay with endangering our line of succession doesn't mean that you can also partake in that idiocy!"
she ended with a defeated sigh while massaging the spot between her eyes as if to attempt to push back a headache.
Seeing the pleased look on the face of his beloved wife and the angry twitch of his mother's eyebrows at his grandmother's unapproving comments
Sirzechs chooses to divert the situation by using the same tactic his father had used.
When in doubt sacrifice your son.
"Grandma I assure you that Millicas is responsible and strong enough to take care of himself,"
he said while internally asking his son for forgiveness because of the hell he was about to unleash on him.
"I just had a phone call with Rias an hour ago and she told me that he has already reincarnated the first member of his peerage."
That little titbit was enough to surprise his relatives and stop the brewing discussion that would normally develop into the usual polite barrage of insults that generally happened when all the female members of the family got together in the same room.
Sharing a look with his father, the current Lucifer kept the momentum going even if it meant damming his son.
Millicas was a big boy now and he could deal with them tomorrow but he and his father had to return to their marital beds eventually,
it was better for their wives to be focused on the youngest Gremory and his misadventures rather than complaining about the other women of the family to their respective husbands.
"of course, the moment that I got off the phone I called Ajuka to check the King's Records so I could learn about
Millicas' new bishop but imagine my surprise when Ajuka told me that according to the King's Records Millicas not only has a Bishop but a Knight and a Pawn as well"
"He has recruited three members in just one week?" Venelana asked astonished at the news
"Oh my, Milly sure doesn't lose time, does he?" Chysis said proudly her previous worries seemingly forgotten.
"Come on now Son, don't keep us waiting what do you know about them?" Zeoticus asked eagerly.
"Well, Ajuka couldn't tell me more than their names but I did have time to contact some of the hidden watchers around Kuoh and while they couldn't give me all the details, they did get me some photographs"
Pleased that his distraction had perfectly diverted the attention of his family Sirzechs pulled the 3 photos that he had gotten from his sources inside the human world out of his pocket and presented them to his family.
Separately the photos depicted Millicas going around town with each of his new pieces, obviously playing guide to each of them in some kind of one-on-one tour.
The first one showed Millicas and his Bishop, a beautiful black-haired woman, sitting in a café as they chatted with each other.
The second one was of Millicas and his Pawn, a cute younger red-haired girl, playing a fighting game inside an arcade.
The third one, and Sirzechs' personal favourite, depicted his son carrying a couple of grocery bags back to his apartment alongside his knight, a pretty blond-haired maid.
"Well, well, well, would you look at that seems like somebody is having fun." Lord Gremory said with a wide grin on his face at seeing his grandson spending time with his new servants.
"Oh, they look so cute together," the oldest Gremory in the room said happily. "He takes after you Zeo, surrounding himself with pretty girls."
Before the current head of the house could respond to his mother's teasing remark the air around the room changed.
The first indication that Zeoticus had that something was wrong was when he felt his dear Venelana place her hand on his shoulder.
Thou others may not see the problem in that seemingly innocuous action Zeoticus has been married to his wife for over 15 centuries. He knew when she was angry with him for some reason.
And he was unfortunately proven correct a second later when she spoke
"Yes Dear, our grandson seems to be following your footsteps, picking up girls in the human world." While she may sound pleased with the fact the look on her eyes told him otherwise.
With practice ease, Zeoticus could read her true thoughts on the matter in that look.
She was delighted that Millicas was spreading his wings and making friends while enjoying his freedom.
Still, if Zeoticus had somehow corrupted her innocent grandson into turning his peerage into a personal harem, regardless of the commonality of the practice among their kind, she was going to castrate her beloved husband multiple times over.
The fact that her friendship with the current Lady Phenex made it so that Venelana had a sizable stock of Phenex Tears at her disposal only solidified her hidden treat.
As did the subtle application of her power of destruction that was currently branching off under her palm and into his shoulder, out of view from the other occupants of the room
For his part, Sirzechs was worryingly observing his parents' interactions before his danger sense was triggered by his beloved wife.
After the rest of the table had had the chance to see the photographs, Grayfia took hold of them and inspected them meticulously.
"Three members in a week is certainly impressive," His queen said casually while taking a sip of his cup of wine instead of her preferred cup of tea. "So, tell me, Honey, how did our son manage that?"
If her drinking of his wine wasn't enough of a red flag to let Sirzechs know that he was in trouble then her affectionate nickname and the loving smile she sent his way in front of others was the thunderous sound of an alarm letting him know he had somehow fucked up.
