Chapter 58: After
🕑 Added 2025-08-27 16:44:36 +0000 UTC[3rd POV]
It was the day after Scathach had been recruited into her peerage, and not much had happened. Scathach had adapted to her new life quite fast, learning the names of her fellow peerage members, as well as important members of the devil society and other people like Azazel.
From what Morgan could tell, Scathach was even stronger than she had initially expected. With Scathach actually being the strongest person in her peerage after she had been reincarnated. She was at the very very bottom of Super Class, making her stronger than Grayfia or Tiamat, with only Morgan being stronger within the peerage.
But her spear could overcome that difference, and it was because of this that Morgan wanted to learn from her, both when it came to her special runes, and when it came to martial arts. As Scathach was by far the most skilled fighter she had ever met, and was likely the best spear master in the world at the moment, or at least, very very close to being the best.
Morgan knew that the peace conference would begin within the next month or so, meaning she still had quite a bit to do until then, primarily within the Underworld.
As now that she had killed Grim Reapers, she was expecting Hades himself to get involved. And now that Irina and Xenovia knew that God was in fact dead, it was likely that Xenovia would leave the church.
Xenovia would then either join her or Rias, personally she wanted her to join Rias, as while initially she wanted Xenovia for her own peerage, she decided that Rias would do better with her, especially now that she had Scathach for herself. Scathach was far far superior to Xenovia in pretty much every way, which is why she was okay with Xenovia joining Rias.
That and Rias needed to continue improving her own peerage. Especially now that she didn’t have Asia or Issei. Gasper would be a massive boon to their peerage, so Morgan planned on helping the poor boy out soon, as he would need to begin training if he wanted to help them out.
Their peerage was a lot stronger than in canon though, as thanks to her training, Rias and Akeno were both in Ultimate class, Rias more so than Akeno, who had only recently broken through into the new level of power. She was just barely an ultimate class being.
She had to take care of some things in the Underworld, as she knew that there were rogue devils mixed in with the group that Kokabiel was working with. Meaning he was more than likely working with the Old Satan faction, a faction that she wanted to wipe out soon, as they were problematic and annoying to deal with.
There was another person that she needed to look into, mostly because the man was dangerous and involved himself in everything having to do with the Underworld.
Zekram Bael.
She was confident that the man had something to do with Rainel Phenex and the downfall of her family. And she was confident that he was working with someone or something on the down low. If she could just get proof of it, then she could take care of the man for good.
Finding evidence was the hard part. As he was very very careful with his actions, finding any actual evidence would be next to impossible.
She would have to look into it deeply.
At the moment Morgan was sat at her desk in her office, reading through the reports of her properties and their growth.
She had started to sell a handful of fertility potions in her auction houses, and as she had assumed, she made a LOT of money off of it, like, way more than she had expected. It had also caused a lot of people to pay more attention to her auction houses, as while nobody knew that she owned them, they were on her lands.
Which led to a lot of people requesting to know who made the potions, but she didn’t reveal that for obvious reasons. And once the Four Satans came out and openly told off anyone trying to find out, people shut up real quick. Although it was quite obvious who had made it, considering it was public knowledge that she owned the Mochan Potions business.
It was bringing her a lot of political power. Beyond what she had gotten from the Phenex family that was actually growing thanks to her leadership.
She didn’t really pay attention to any of them, and let them do their own things. But she did take full advantage of their lands, properties, and wealth. She mostly hated Rainel, as the others didn’t know, and it was quite obvious that none of them liked the man, not even his own wife.
She had to act like she did care for him, but once he died, all of that disappeared. As any self respecting woman would naturally despise a rapist, and her husband had been one, and she obviously had not known of that fact.
And considering she openly apologized to Morgan, Morgan decided to leave her be.
“Hmm….wonder if there is any other clans that I can take over without too much fuss” Morgan hummed to herself, wondering if she could maybe take over a family like the Bael’s once she found proof against Zekram.
’Well, either way the Gremory family will naturally be “Mine” once Rias and I marry, with her being the heiress’ Morgan thought, knowing that once Rias and her married, Rias would officially become the new ruler of the Gremory clan, which would allow for her to gain more political might.
She didn’t really need political power now that she was basically a very very low super class being, but it wouldn’t hurt.
Morgan continued to sign a few papers before looking up upon hearing the door creak open with a knock.
“Come in” Morgan spoke out, as in walked Grayfia.
“Master, I’ve received a message from Satan Lucifer” Grayfia said, as she handed over a note to Morgan who raised an eyebrow and began to read it.
“Hmm, it seems he wants me to attend the Peace Conference as an official representative of the Devil faction. Not surprising considering I am politically the third most powerful person in the Underworld, with only himself and Zekram surpassing me” Morgan commented, as Grayfia nodded.
“It is only natural that you begin to get involved in inter-species politics Master, Azazel has likely spoken to Michael about you. And I am certain that they are interested in that sacred gear of yours” Grayfia said.
“Too bad for them, I won’t be explaining how I got it and what it can do. They’ll just have to live with the fact that I have it” Morgan responded, not even remotely interested in trying to explain how and why she had an unknown sacred gear.
“Are you certain that is the best choice? They won’t be pleased” Grayfia asked, a little worried for the reaction that Heaven might have.
“It is. My powers and abilities are mine and mine alone, and I will not be explaining how I have the sacred gear. Explaining it will just make them more interested in me, and will make them bug me even more. It’d cause more problems than it solves” Morgan responded, knowing that her ability was not something she could ever reveal, it was simply too strong and too dangerous to be spread.
“As you wish master” Grayfia said, understanding what Morgan was saying. As it was only natural that she wouldn’t want to reveal her abilities, and how she did what she did.
Morgan knew that if she revealed her ability to the world, the entire supernatural world would come after her and her peerage, and she simply was not strong enough to do anything about that. She was likely in the top 25-40 in the world, but she was not strong enough to fight against the Hindu Pantheon or even the Greek.
Hades alone would be able to defeat her. With him being in the top 10 strongest in the world.
Morgan blinked as she felt Grayfia press a soft kiss against her cheek, as the silver haired woman gave her a small smile as she began to walk away with a sway of her hips, but not before speaking.
“See you later, master~” Grayfia teased, knowing the reactions she was getting from Morgan who watched her walk off one thought on her mind as she shot to her feet and began to follow after her naughty maid.
’…Work can wait for a little while!’

That’s the end of the chapter!
So…yeah, 2k word chapters is just not working. Writing 2k words for a single chapter every time is not easy, nor is it fun. So from now on, I’ll be writing 1.4-1.5k word chapters every Monday and Friday. So 2-3k words a week at least on this.
I hope this isn’t a problem, but writing 2k words just isn’t very fun or easy when it comes to this fic.
This new update schedule will start on Monday.
Bookstore Witch should be getting updated in a bit.
A vault chapter should be coming in the next couple of days.
Anyways, have a good day!
