"Wrong! My Grandson Is Better! Don't You See How Cute He Is?!"
A somewhat-short demon, sporting thick eyebrows, and a messy handlebar mustache, his hair is white, and he has several piercings, he also wears a white hat on top of his head, and his black horns curl above the brim, plus a pink and black tiger-striped button-up with a loose collar, wearing a coat over that is half-black and half-white, he is known as Belial and was currently arguing with someone

"NO! Mine Is Smarter And Clearly More Talented! Which Means My Grandson Is Better!"
The 2nd demon was an older woman with light blue long hair a bandana, also has two horns that look connected to her bandana and head, she also has a white turtleneck and a blue jacket, and a belt to compliment her long skirt, she was known as Levi, and she was barking back at the shorter demon

"Unfortunately I don't have any grandchildren yet, but I like to think my daughter is very adorable~"
An anthropomorphic owl demon, seen wearing a deep red tunic with six linked golden buttons down the breast, and beige breeches, plus with a feathery tophat that features a regal gold crown encircling it, as well as a long burgundy cape, tattered at the hemline, with a plush ermine-look fur collar, and long black gloves with white feathered trims at the elbows, he was known as Stolas, and he just simply sat there, drinking tea and watching his fellow college argue over silly things

"Well, you get to win on that, Stolas."

"Speaking of winning, Sullivan, as the lonely old man of this group, you pick who has the better grandson again."
After letting the owl demon take the victory of having the best daughter, who claps happily, both Levi and Belial decided to let the fourth person, who was none other than Sullivan sitting at the corner of the room mysteriously, decide on who has the best grandchild here

"Hehe, I'm not the same old lonely demon as you know before…"
This immediately caught the attention of the three great demons, who suddenly looked at Sullivan with confusion about what he was talking about

"I Have A Grandchild Too!~"
Sullivan then pulls out a bunch of pictures of a certain Iruma Suzuki and slammed them all on the table for all to see

"GRANDCHILD?!"

"SINCE WHEN DID YOU GET A GRANDCHILD?!"

"I'M MORE CONFUSED ABOUT HOW HE SKIPPED PARENTHOOD?!"
Stolas, Belial, and Levi were beyond shock and surprise at how the once lonely demon had suddenly become a family man out of nowhere without them knowing

"Don't worry about that, let's just focus on how my new grandchild is so cute and adorable and the sweetest ever~"
Sullivan refuses to explain and instead wanted to focus solely on his child, and the three demons decided to do just that and look closely at pictures

"Well, I guess if we're ignoring the how, I do like to say that I hope you cherish your new family and make their life better than your own."
Stolas decided to simply give his congratulations and hopeful wishes that the new grandpa is good to the new child

"I can't deny that I would like to pinch his cheeks, but my grandson is better!"
Even though Levi does admit that the new child to the new grandfather was indeed adorable, she still refused to admit that their grandchild was better than hers

"But doesn't this mean we no longer have a tie-breaker?..."
Belial couldn't help but pointed out and pout, a few hours went by, as the four great demons spent most of their time either talking about their precious young ones or just goofing off without actually getting any work done, but after one of the great demons realized the time was almost up, he decided to bring thing back down to Hell

"Well, since we have only a few more moments here, we might as well get some work done before going home to our precious cuties~"
Once Sullivan said this, the three high demons couldn't help but groan and whine but didn't disagree with the idea of getting stuff done and then going back to spoiling their young ones back at home

"I might as well go first since you brought it up."
Stolas drinks his tea before putting the cup down and using his hellish magic to summon his 'Grimoire' book

"As you all know, 'Tears of Azathoth' is about to happen very soon, and since it is a sight that no demon should miss, I plan to request Lucifer to have a gathering at his Ring, so that we can all watch the lovely show together, though if not, then I do hope that you all don't mind watching it in my Ring instead."
When Stolas brought up, and showed the description in his book, of 'Tears of Azathoth', everyone couldn't help but be excited and happy with the thought alone of seeing such a thing

"Even if you don't get Lucifer's blessing, we would all be grateful either way if you showed us this beauty!~"
Levi was practically beaming at the idea of seeing something so rare to her

"I'll bring in a few people I know who can record this phenomenon live throughout the 9 Rings!~"
Belial quickly pulled out his phone and started to make a few calls and schedules for this particular event that will happen soon

"Ooh!~ Such great timing, can't wait to show my new cute grandson 'Tears of Azathoth', I bet he will make an adorable face when he sees them!~"
Sullivan shakes and bounces around in his round egg form in joy and excitement, seeing everyone act like this made the owl devil smile

"I promise to make this day amazing and something worthwhile, though with that being said, I have nothing else to share, what about you three?"
Stolas unsummon his book and finished saying his peace, being ready to change the subject and listen to what the others have to say

"While I don't wish to bring down this good mood, I, unfortunately, have to give some bad news about the Wrath Ring and what might happen in the future."
Belial sighs sadly as he wore an upset expression that made everyone concern

"And said future might involve some execution and mass genocide to our demonic prisoners…"
This made everyone gasps in shock at what Belial just said right now

"I see, so you received the same order from Lucifer?..."
Levi was the only person who wasn't shocked, she even wore a sympathetic expression and pat her fellow demon on the back in comfort

"This is quite unsettling news, if what you said is true, then that would mean those Angels will come back to finish the job…"
Stolas clenched his fist at the thought of seeing those 'ANGELS' again, it made his heart pound from pure uneasiness

"However, Lucifer's words are law, and we can do nothing but follow them… A shame that some demons and sinners can't change…"
Sullivan sighs softly, everything went silent after all that, clearly such a topic was enough for even the four great demons to feel down and upset, not to mention a bit unsettled from what they know and what they can't share

"... SO!~ I'm planning on making a new class in Babyls, specifically made for our future rulers of the 9 Rings!~"
Sullivan quickly wanted to change the subject and said something that not only instantly change the mood into something more brighter, but got their full attention as well

"Oh? What made you decide this?"
Levi wore a more calm expression again, as she looked up at her fellow demon friend with curiosity

"Well, to educate them of course, even though they will still be automatically chosen as your replacement, it won't do if they aren't skilled or strong enough to take such an important role."
Sullivan's reasons were just and understandable, most would have agreed to his sound judgment of how reasonable they were

"Uh-huh, and what's the real reason, hm?"
However, Belial, plus the others, didn't sound so convinced of that being the real reason why the Ruler of Babyls would decide on such a thing, who only giggled and wore a silly smile

"Hehe, well my new grandson is just so alone and timid, so having him attend class with fellow future Ring leaders, who he would no doubt be working with in the future, will be a good way for him to break out of his shell and make some real friends~"
Sullivan couldn't help but gush at the thought of seeing his grandson making so many friends and just wearing such a bright happy smile of pureness, it nearly made him melt from how cute that thought was

"Truly you have embraced the spoiling side of your grandfather self, hehe~
Stolas teases and chuckles at seeing his college fully become a true family man who wants nothing more than to do everything for said family

"But even so I have no reason to deny this idea, it is time for my sweet little princess to become a proper Queen of the Pride Ring."

"I also have no objections, my smart grandchild needs the best education after all!~"

"YES! SEEING HIM WITH SO MANY FRIENDS, THAT WON'T KILL HIM, WOULD BE SO ADORABLE AND CUTE!!!~"
And with all the higher demon rulers, Stolas, Levi, and Belial agreeing and heavily supporting the idea that Sullivan has just offered, after all that, an alarm went off from everyone's phone, signaling everyone that the meeting has ended, which made everyone stand up from their seats and prepare to leave

"Same time next week?~"

"Always, I'll be sure to bring some Earth delectables to spice things up."

"Oh! Do you think you could bring that large elephant meat again, my grandson really enjoyed that flavor~"

"And the wedding cake from a human wedding!~"
Sullivan, Stolas, Levi, and Belial started to say their final goodbyes and last-minute small talk as they all begin to leave the room and head home for the day, though as soon as the female and short demon had used magic to teleport away, the great demon quickly grabbed and stop the owl demon from leaving, which definitely catch his attention and looked back at him with a raised eyebrow

"Stolas, may I ask for a personal favor from you?"

"Hm? And what would that be Sullivan?"
