They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 118 The Holy Grail, the True Holy Grail
After giving instructions about the Kuoh Academy, Dan Lei left with a group of people.

For a fallen angel, restoring an academy is a minor matter, and Azazel certainly wouldn't give Danlei another chance to cause him trouble because of this.

And just as Dan Lei predicted, Asahiel wouldn't dare to do anything strange about the artificial artifacts.

Because Dan Lei had specifically reminded him beforehand that he knew Fafnir's soul was in his hands.

Having no idea how much Danlei knew about artificial artifacts, Azazel dared not gamble that Danlei wouldn't discover the problematic information he was giving out.

It's worth noting that the Queen of the Land of Shadows, who clearly possesses prophetic abilities, is also on Dan Lei's side.

However, to bolster his confidence in his conversation with Dan Lei, he brought two more people with him when he delivered the documents to Dan Lei three days later.

When Danlei opened the door, he saw a magical group in front of his house: a twelve-winged seraphim, a demon king, and a twelve-winged fallen angel governor. It was none other than Michael, Sazex, and Azazel.

The world of High School DxD is quite unique.

Angels and demons, who are mortal enemies in any mythology, can reconcile, and fallen angels, the corrupted offspring of angels, can sit and eat with other angels.

So, this combination, which can fight as soon as they meet in any mythology, is now knocking on Danlei's door together.

The three of them were clearly on official business this time; otherwise, given Sirzechs's personality, he would definitely have gone to see his sister Rias first.

However, Dan Lei did not refuse the three of them from coming in, and casually arranged for them to sit in the classroom.

For now, Irina Zifang is staying at Danlei's place to recover from her injuries, and Genovya is taking care of her.

The two women were staying at Danlei's house because Danlei felt sorry for them. The church didn't give them any funding, leaving them penniless. If Danlei hadn't taken them in, the two women would have had to live under a bridge.

Now that Michael has arrived, Irina Wisteria, despite her still-healing injuries, is helped by Genovya to come and pay her respects and pray.

Therefore, the scene in Danlei's living room is now also very strange.

Two young girls are praying devoutly to the angels.

But demons and fallen angels were watching from all sides.

The Queen of the Land of Shadows stood blocking the entrance, seemingly contemplating whether Sazex could kill her true form.

The Infinite Dragon God Orpheus was eating ice cream at the table in the living room with a blank expression, while Dan Lei was wiping the ice cream off her face with a tissue.

Fortunately, Genovia and Irina knew that Michael's arrival must be for important business with Danlei, so they didn't waste any more time. After praying, they wanted to act as guards behind Michael.

However, Dan Lei spoke up at this moment.
"Alright, now that the ceremony for the wounded is over, hurry back and rest. Genovia, Orpheus, please take care of her for a while and take her to her room first."

For the past three days, Genovia, who felt it was inappropriate to be eating and staying at Danlei's house for free, continued to work as a maid.

To be honest, when Genovia fights, she only wants to win by brute force, but she is surprisingly good at being a woman, and she is good at cleaning, taking care of young girls (Orpheus).

According to her, she learned these skills while caring for young believers in the church.

So, as soon as Dan Lei called, Genovya started working reflexively, and Irina was forcibly sent back to her room.

After all, faith is faith, and life is life. She never imagined that Michael would take the two of them away today.

Seeing this, Michael could only remain silent, because he could not show any confrontation with Danlei here.

With Genovia looking after Orpheus, Danlei handed the drinks to the three of them and sat down, then asked...
"Alright, I know that Sazex and Michael have important business to attend to today, but before we get to that, Azazel, you should settle your bill first."

Upon hearing this, Azazel didn't hesitate, handing over a rolled-up parchment and saying...
"All the research data on artifacts by the fallen angels, and the methods for manufacturing artificial artifacts, are here. Keep them safe."

The parchment that Azazel is using now is actually equivalent to a database of the three major powers in the Bible. Don't be fooled by its small size; it can become quite long when unfolded.

Moreover, this thing isn't meant to be looked at; the main purpose is to mentally read its contents after opening it.

So Danlei accepted the parchment, quickly scanned its contents with his mind, and then said with a smile...
“I did receive it, but the matter of Kabil and Vali attacking me is over.”

By the way, Vali, did you find out anything after the interrogation?

Danlei asked about Vali's condition purely out of curiosity, but Azazel didn't answer. Instead, Sazex replied directly...
"That descendant of Lucifer was ultimately tried by a joint effort of us demons and fallen angels. He was very cooperative and basically told us everything he knew."

However, the next day, he was kidnapped by a monkey demon named Mei Hou, who inherited the power of Sun Wukong from the East, and a rogue cat named Xiao Hei Ge.

But this also made us realize the seriousness of the problem.

Furthermore, Vali said that the leader of the Calamity Gang is Orpheus. Is there some misunderstanding here?

Danlei immediately realized that Sazex wasn't asking about Orpheus's situation at all, but rather testing his attitude, so he told the truth.
"There is no misunderstanding. Orpheus was indeed the leader of the Calamity Clan before, and he bestowed upon them a large number of [Snakes] that could enhance their own strength."

However, she was deceived by those guys from the Calamity Clan. After my explanation, she has now severed ties with them. In the future, she will no longer be the leader of the Calamity Clan, nor will she grant them power. You don't need to worry about her influence.”

Sazex was slightly relieved upon hearing this, because it would be terrible if Danlei were also a member of the Chaos Brigade, even if he showed a supportive attitude.

After Sazex finished asking his most pressing question, Michael spoke up, but he immediately began by saying...

"Lord Danlei, I have long heard of your great name and should have visited you sooner, but I was delayed by a great deal of business in the Heavenly Realm."

Seeing Michael's politeness, Dan Lei, not wanting to offend someone who was being so friendly, replied...
"That kind of thing doesn't matter. Actually, I don't care how many people visit to express goodwill. I don't ask for much, as long as no one bothers me."

However, Michael still said

"No, I should at least express the angel's kindness, and since you saved two of us devout believers this time, I should also express my gratitude."

As soon as he finished speaking, a dazzling light flashed in front of him, and a holy sword with dragon claw guards suddenly appeared.

The moment the sword appeared, Dan Lei felt an instinctive alertness rising within him.

It's like seeing someone walking down the street in a past life, fiddling with a small knife as they go.

Even if the knife isn't pointed at you, and the person isn't coming towards you, you'll still instinctively feel wary.

But it's quite unusual for this situation to happen to me now. Even Siegfried's Demon Emperor Sword Gram didn't give me this feeling.

Therefore, the sword Michael has is probably the same Ascalon, the dragon-slaying holy sword that was given to Issei Hyoudou in the original story and has special attack capabilities against dragons.

As expected, to prevent any misunderstanding, Michael spoke immediately after the sword appeared.

"Lord Danlei, this is the dragon-slaying holy sword Ascalon. I intend to present it to you as a token of my gratitude for your protection of our followers." Danlei knew this was Michael's gesture of goodwill, so he didn't refuse. He grasped the hilt, examined the sword for a moment, and then spoke.
"Thank you for your gift, I have received the angel's kindness."

However, as soon as Danlei finished speaking, Michael shook his head.
"Lord Danlei, you have misunderstood. That was my personal expression of gratitude. The gift from the Angel Clan is something else entirely."

As soon as he finished speaking, the light in front of Michael shone again, and a golden cup, which looked simple and unadorned, appeared before him.

However, the sacred aura emanating from this cup was incredibly strong, and at the same time, the red liquid inside the cup also emitted an unusually rich fluctuation of life force.

Azazel was stunned by what he saw, and he exclaimed...
"Michael, why are you bringing out the Holy Grail? Are you planning to give it away? Even if God is dead, this is going too far!!"

Dan Lei was also taken aback when he heard this, because based on Azazel's words, it was basically confirmed that the golden cup in front of him was the real Holy Grail.

This Holy Grail is not an artificial magical artifact that borrows the name of the Holy Grail in the Holy Grail War, but the real Holy Grail from biblical mythology.

However, Michael ignored Azazel's exclamation and instead spoke to Danlei.

"Lord Danlei, I wish to establish a lasting peace between our people and you by using the Holy Grail as a pact."

Dan Lei understood that Michael was establishing a pact with him on behalf of the angels. If he took the Holy Grail, he would not be allowed to actively seek trouble with the angels and their forces.

However, Danlei agreed after only a short time of consideration.

Just kidding, I won't be staying in this world for long anyway. I've already got my hands on the data for the Two Heavenly Dragons and the artificial artifact.

I'll spend some more time learning how to manufacture artificial artifacts, then go to the Land of Shadows to fulfill my promise to Scáthach, and then just pack my bags and leave this world.

I definitely won't come back until I reach the Envoy level, and during that time I will definitely not provoke any angels.

Moreover, ever since the Holy Grail appeared, the Holy Grail in his own consciousness space has become active, constantly expressing its desires to Dan Lei.

However, just to be on the safe side, Danlei added...

"Establishing lasting peace requires the efforts of both sides. After all, I cannot stand by and do nothing when others are bullying me."

Michael thought Danley's request was reasonable, and thus added...
"Of course, if any of our people behave disrespectfully towards you, you may punish them as you see fit."

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei felt there was no problem, so he took the Holy Grail and quickly put it back into his sac. As for the Holy Grail's desire, Dan Lei could only appease it for now and see what kind of resonance the two Holy Grails would produce after the person left.

Danlei took the Holy Grail, and immediately a pact drawn up by the two men appeared between him and Michael.

Although the contract lacked any detailed rules and contained many loopholes, both parties signed their names without hesitation.

Seeing that Danlei and the angel had signed a permanent peace pact, Sazex immediately realized this was a good opportunity, and so he said...

"Lord Danlei, actually, the demon also wants to sign such a contract with you, but I didn't bring a treasure like the Holy Grail with me today. How about you make a request? Or we can just marry Rias and Sona without signing a contract."

Upon hearing Sazex's words, Michael immediately smiled politely at him.

Azazel, however, didn't hold back in his criticism.

“Sazex, we signed a peace treaty, how come you're still taking advantage of me?”

Making Danlei marry your sister and the second young lady of the Xidi family is no different from making Danlei join your demonic forces directly.

"If Mr. Danlei can achieve peace by offering women, then as the Governor of the Fallen Angels, I promise that you may take any Fallen Angel woman you desire, as many as you like."

Azazel dared to say this because he was certain that Danlei wasn't the kind of man who wanted a harem and wouldn't actually mess around with fallen angel women.

However, even if Danlei really did something reckless, Asahiel probably wouldn't say anything, since he had no idea that Danlei couldn't have children.

In fact, Azazel and Sazex had the same idea: with Danlei's bloodline, how could the child born be weak? In the future, with half of the bloodline being that of a demon/fallen angel, they would all be their own help.

Of course, Dan Lei wouldn't act recklessly in this world. As I said before, he definitely hasn't gotten past the Black Tower and Ruan Mei yet.

A genius won't lower himself just because he's lost his virginity. So if Dan Lei wants his night with the two geniuses to be more than just a one-night stand and to save his life, he'd better not mess around outside.

Therefore, Dan Lei took the initiative to refuse.

"Thank you both for your kind offer. I have my own standards for a partner. When love truly comes, I will take the initiative."

As for a peace treaty, I am willing to sign one with both demons and fallen angels.

The conditions are the same as those for the angels. You don't need to use treasures of the same level as the Holy Grail to prove your sincerity. Instead, exchange them all for high-grade metals such as adamantite, mithril, and orogen, or high-level gems and crystals that are equivalent to the Holy Grail.

"I've got the technology to manufacture artificial artifacts, and my hands are itching to get started, so the more materials the better."

Dan Lei said this, and neither Azazel nor Sazex had any objections. If they were to bring out a treasure of the same level as the Holy Grail, they would have to bring out something that was the foundation of their own power to match it.

The legend of the Holy Grail is an extremely important chapter in the Bible, which is why Azazel was so shocked.

This thing is completely priceless and unavailable, but if it could be replaced with various materials, although it would still be a huge expense, it would be more acceptable.

After finalizing the peace treaty among the three parties, Sazex and his companions invited Danley to witness the treaty and hoped to sign it right there in Kuoh-no-Town.

Danlei explicitly refused to witness the peace treaty between the three races.

Such a contract cannot be witnessed casually by an unrelated party.

Generally speaking, although a witness to a contract is not bound by the contract, if any of the three parties violates the contract, it is equivalent to slapping the witness in the face.

At this point, a strong witness will usually try to teach the breaching party a lesson, otherwise they will lose face.

Dan Lei didn't want to get involved in this trouble, so he naturally refused directly.

However, Danlei approved the application signed in Komao Town.

Dan Lei directly promised that Er Tianlong would be in charge of security, giving face to the three major forces and making them feel that their money had not been wasted.
