"You mean..."

I was shocked beyond everything else.

"When Lucifer was cast out of Heaven and created Devil Race... they started exploring Underworld and even Dimensional Gap. During their exploration of the Dimensional Gap, I heard, from your Grandfather none less, that they found some pocket dimension or whatever... which actually was the sleeping place of Trihexa."

Explained Crom Cruach.

"Those madmen... Don't they know if it breaks free from Yahweh, we are all screwed..."

I said with anger... so that was their plan.

They planned to release Trihexa on Yahweh in a sealed area. Such a fight between two existences on that level could go for even years. Even if he won, he would be greatly weakened and severely injured; recuperation may take decades.

"Yes, they are... using Trihexa, the Beast of Apocalypse, for something like this. If it goes out of control, the entire Underworld, Heaven, and entirely of the Draconic Deus would be turned to dust... unless Shiva, Jade Emperor, or Great Red steps forward to stop it."

On the Draconic Deus, there were only a few existences that could rival Trihexa. On top of that, Trihexa, as the Beast Emperor of the Apocalypse, was noted for its terrifying defensive and regenerative abilities.

"Let's rather turn the list... why are you coming to the Familiar Forest, Crom Cruach?"

I said as we were walking through the Forest.

"Simple. After Lugh defeated Evil God Balor, and I was released from the control spell that bastard put on me, I decided to tour the world and observe Human World and Underworld as part of my training... though the Human World is disgusting for me, as everywhere I look there is Church... fortunately not for a long time. Why Familiar Forest? I came to challenge Tiamat to fight; she is the strongest of the Dragons on the Draconic Deus if we are not counting Red One and White One."

Said Crom Cruach. Great Red and Ophis weren't on the list, as they were cooped in the Dimensional Gap, and they were already Tier 3 existences; there was no worth mentioning them; they were too above our current league.

Tiering was something Architect came with. Basically, Tier 1 existences, or as I called them, cannon fodder, were everything from Low-Class to High-Class. Then there were Tier 2 existences, Ultimate-Class / Lesser Divinity Stage God to the Super-Devil Class / Greater Divinity Stage God.

Tier 3 existences were called Beings of Law; though I have no idea how many Classes were there, there was a severe lack of information about it. So nobody would know anything unless some Mighty Divinity Stage God or Apocalypse-Class powerhouse started talking.

"Why are you so adamant about defeating Tiamat?"

I asked out of curiosity as I listened for almost twenty minutes to Crom Cruach telling me about Tiamat.

"When we were fledglings, we were born in the same mountain range, so we interacted a lot. If I were to get stronger than her, that woman told me that she would become my mate... so here I am. On top of that, I could get a grand fight with someone on the Pinnacle of the Dragon-King Class."

Said Crom Cruach, so Tiamat wasn't Heavenly Dragon-Class now. That was good, but I would never suspect that he was here to find a mate. Though similar to devils, dragons also wanted to have the most powerful mates, so their offspring would have the best genes possible.

We devils did the same. Truth be told, I would have never laid with a woman who was weaker than me or had low potential. It was in my pride as the devil, though not everyone was like me.

I was more like devils like Zekram in this regard. Many of the younger devils were promiscuous and didn't care about their choice of sexual partner.

"At first, help me find my familiar and then go to do what you want."

I said to him in frustration. I wanted to quickly find that Spitting Thorny Flower, but finding something in this place was dammed nightmare, as I couldn't even use location and detection spells due to the presence of Tiamat.

I don't want to be dragged into her fight with Crom Cruach; as for me, it would just spell fast death above everything else.

"What about Lifeblood Geass Contract, fledgling?"

Asked Crom Cruach slowly, to which I nodded.

"As long as you can give me many battles and fights, I have no problem following your orders... at least to a certain degree. With this, my debt to your grandfather is repaid."

Siad Crom Cruach, as we signed the Lifeblood Geass Contract.

With this, Crom Cruach became my partner? Or what is the correct term? He wasn't subordinate or retainer... though he would fight my battles if the opponent was strong enough to provide him a challenge.

"What debt?"

I asked as I noticed his words at the end of the sentence.

"Something that is not your matter, fledgling."

Answered Crom Cruach shortly.

"Come on, fledgling, we need to find you familiar, and I have a meeting with Tiamat."

Said he excitedly at the prospect of the fight and possible mating, though I don't really know which one he meant... but If I can guess, then probably the fight is more important.

Fortunately, as we were walking through the Familiar Forest, most of the monsters let us be, thanks to the savage killing intent that Crom Cruach was releasing to scare everything away. On the other side, he also wanted to lure Tiamat here. He said she was obsessed with treasures, so she spent all her time deep within her cave labyrinth, guarding her treasure vault.

"We are already near... somewhere here, plant-type familiars reside. Now you can go alone; if I go there, they will all hide."

Said Crom Cruach as he looked at the part of the Forest.

"Thank you... after your business with Tiamat is finished, please visit me at Castle Fuerig."

I said politely as Crom Cruach just nodded and disappeared.
