I Hunt and Purge Reincarnators

Chapter 196: The Banquet Part 1



Chapter 196: The Banquet Part 1

As the banquet day grew closer, Kel did his best to get ready. Since he was the sole descendant and his house, unlike others, was on the verge of collapse, not much was initially needed with regard to the event.     

He didn't need to arrange gifts to trick other households or clothes to overly dazzle the ladies like some peacock, or even organize his people.     

No, instead of executing one of the aforementioned deeds—as most devils of noble descent would—he concentrated on compiling a short list.     

…     

Currently, Kel was traveling on a train to the underworld that he was able to reserve with the aid of Rias.     

The rich inside was decorated in an opulent Victorian style, and the scented candles that were placed on each table in each cabin gave off a pleasant aroma.     

Sitting alone in his cabin on opposite chairs with Silyva, Kel focused on a small piece of paper.     

While tapping one of his fingers on the table's surface, Kel tapped the thin black pen he was holding against his chin.     

"Who else should I include, Let's see." Aloud, he questioned himself.     

Silyva, who had remained silent for the bulk of the voyage, continued to occasionally glance at the piece of paper to scan the names written there.     

A list of names that many people in the underworld would recognize was listed from top to bottom.     

The following characters appear: [ Rias Gremory, Sirzechs Leviathan, Grayfia Lucifige, Zeoticus Gremory, Lord Bael, Riser Phenex, Diodora Astaroth, Sona Sitri, Serafall Asmodeus, Ajuka Beezlebub, Bedeze Abaddon, Rudiger Rosenkreutz, Diehauser Belial, Roygun Belphegor, Ruval Phenex, Lord Phenex ]     

The list appeared to go on forever, but there were also some names that had been crossed out; if those were counted as well, there were well over a hundred names recorded.     

"Does Lord Kel intend to influence all of those?"     

Silyva was forced to enquire with some concern because the figure was simply too high.     

"Well, not really, I just thought now would be a good time to search some possible occupants after remembering Lilith's statements about my world."     

Silyva leaned forward with enthusiasm as though she had just received the finest news in a long time when Kel's remarks caught her off guard.     

"Really?"     

Kel looked up at the large-boobed woman who was virtually blocking his view. He was limited to a sigh and nod.     

I doubt someone from there would easily agree to change dimensions after only knowing me for a few months at most. After all, considering this world's laws and the like, it's very easy for me to recruit strong individuals with little effort on my part.     

In reality, Silyva could care less about there being more people living in Kel's world; rather, she was intrigued by the idea that he was now open to bringing people along as long as they complied with the rules of that realm.     

To her, this implied that possibly once everything was said and done, he would stay, or if he didn't, he might be willing to take her along.     

Kel's perspective on his current circumstance had been gradually shifting for a while. Although hardly much time had passed in his own world, the same could not be true for the other worlds he had been to.     

He experienced those months and days to the fullest. He didn't like the sensation of getting to know someone and bonding with them, just to have it end abruptly.     

Before he had time to think, the wall of resistance he had constructed had started to crumble.     

'It's fine, right? There is nothing wrong if they are willing.'     

Such ideas calmed his mind and helped him arrive at this decision. In any event, Silyva was content.     

They had no idea that when his defenses began to fray, his values and beliefs began to steadily shift.     

"Lady Lilith will be happy, I'm sure of it!" Silyva continued as if to indicate that other people would be welcome to the idea.     

Kel nodded and grinned at her aloofness; she had a ditzy perspective on life that occasionally kept him in check and kept him from obsessing about his predicament.     

"I'm sure she's stroking herself just thinking of the pandemonium that'll bring,"     

Kel purposely made fun of her out loud since he wasn't sure if the nearly always there destroyer was keeping an eye on him.     

Anyway, since this is only focused on devils for the time being, I can't make a long list. If I recruit one, it is likely that their peerage will do so as well, so I can't overdo it or I'll essentially be bringing an army.     

After speaking it out loud, Kel couldn't really see anything wrong with the idea of bringing an army of attractive women back—after all, it was for the sake of maintaining balance and getting rid of Reincarnators.     

Sadly, Kel's wall had not weakened to the point where he would have forgotten his goal and turned into a hentai Pokémon master.     

"This is difficult labor, and I can now see how porn camera men must feel. You can enjoy it directly in front of you, but others can... Well, fuck, I really want to get rid of those idiots now."     

With the use of this example, Kel was slightly more driven to exterminate the chaotic Reincarnators because he hadn't previously considered what would occur in the case of the milder or innocent Reincarnators.     

"I can support Lord Kel if he's worn out and stressed out…." Silyva was about to say something when the door to their cabin flung open, revealing Raynare, who was staring at Kel with a ravenous expression on her face.     

"I arrived as soon as I could because I overheard that you were under stress."     

Kel didn't even want to know how she knew this; it would have been simpler if he had assumed she had simply overheard, as opposed to developing the ability to detect when he needed stress release.     

"I'm good, but take some water... and no underground hormonal outbursts, because everyone on this list will be doing plenty of that. Kel said with a grin.
