Beside him was Rias and his Nobility, except for Gasper who was probably already there, they wore their same uniforms from Academy Kuo.
"Oh, I see Gilgamesh has arrived, and brought his friends" said Azazel calmly.
"Glad to see Azazel" said Gilgamesh sarcastically making Azazel smile.
"That's quite a few people" Azazel said as his eyes roamed over Gilgamesh's entire group, or better known as the Avalon Faction.
Gilgamesh gave a nod to this as his group was indeed large.
Presently there stood Gilgamesh who was wearing a black T-shirt with jeans and black sneakers, along with two bracelets and a necklace that held three of his dinjs.
Next to her were Valerie who was wearing a dress next to Arturia who was wearing a long-sleeved white shirt and a blue skirt with black shoes, and next to her was Mordred who was wearing a gray shirt with a black shorts and black sneakers.
Asia was wearing her typical outfit along with Leonardo who was also wearing his typical high school uniform.
Sebas wore his butler's uniform while Enkidu wore a white shirt and blue pants and a pair of sneakers as well, and Fenrir who was in his cub's firm who was in the arms of the Weapon of the Gods.
Karna wore a black suit and Arthur wore his normal clothes just like his sister Le Fay who also wore her typical uniform.
Xenovia wore a uniform consisting of a red button-down top with a white tie and red shorts. She also wears a black cape around her waist, as well as a purple cape over her left shoulder.
Achilles wore a casual black long sleeved t-shirt and pants while Merlin wore his same outfit, the biggest difference was that Tiamat was not with them as she was already in the underworld as she was still working with Ajuka.
"I see you have new friends" Azazel said as his eyes roamed over the two new members of the Gilgamesh Faction.
"Yes, they have joined recently" said Gilgamesh smiling quietly.
Achilles took the lead and smiled, "Nice to meet you, I am Achilles" said the Greek demigod smiling.
The eyes of Azazel and the demons went wide upon hearing this.
"Achilles as the Great Hero of the Trojan War?" asked Azazel receiving a nod from the demigod in question, "Are you a descendant of his?"
Achilles nodded at the question, Gilgamesh had already explained to him about it and Achilles saw no problem with being considered a descendant of himself, although he thought it was funny.
Azazel couldn't help but stare perplexed that Gilgamesh had another descendant of a legendary hero by his side.
And from what Azazel felt Achilles' power was no small thing, it was greater than a Satanas-class demon and on top of that it emanated a great deal of divine energy.
"How by his father's name Gilgamesh manages to recruit such powerful allies!" cried Azazel mentally.
Rias who had been silent until then turned to Merlin, "And who is he?" asked Rias pointing to Merlin with everyone turning their attention to him.
Merlin in a single instant seemed to teleport in front of Rias and knelt before her taking her hand making the Gremory heiress blush.
"I'm glad you asked, I came down and Avalon where I watched the world simply so I could behold your magnificent beauty, my lady" Merlin said as he lightly kissed Rias' hand making her turn as red as her hair.
Akeno who was standing next to me is an "Ara, ara" while laughing at Rias.
"I like him" said Azazel as he held back his laughter upon seeing the scene.
But before Merlin continued the Flower Mage felt a shiver run down his spine and when he looked back he saw Arturia with his green eyes clenched and Excalibur in hand as a black aura surged through his body.
"... Mercy?" asked Merlin humbly.
Arturia simply swung his sword striking Merlin's head which was sent flying into a wall.
Merlin quickly staggered off the wall and hid behind Gilgamesh.
"Protect me from her master!" shouted Merlin as he saw Arturia approaching.
Gilgamesh sighed at this, "Next time think before you act" said Gilgamesh as he turned to Arturia, "Calm down Arturia, this won't solve anything" said Gilgamesh.
Arturia looked seriously at Merlin before sighing and putting away her sword and going back to the side of the group as Merlin sighed in relief.
"So what is he?" asked Azazel holding back his laughter as everyone else did.

Merlin quickly stepped out from behind Gilgamesh and placed his hand on his chest, "I am the great Flower Mage Merlin" said Merlin introducing himself with great joy.
Everyone's eyes widened upon hearing this while Azazel sighed, "Honestly I don't even care anymore, let's just go" said Azazel, he really didn't care anymore.
Everyone agreed as they got on the train and prepared to go to the Underworld.
...
...
[Riiiiiiiiiiiing]
The exit whistle sounded, and the train began to move.
Everyone was sitting in the center of the train, in the first car was Rias and his Nobility, and Azazel was sleeping in the last alight.
Gilgamesh and his group were sitting right behind, Valerie was next to Gilgamesh along with Asia and Arturia.
Further to the side was Karna who was sitting quietly with his eyes closed and next to him was Enkidu who was petting Fenrir quietly.
Mordred was sitting next to Merlin who was making jokes and annoying her and Xenovia too.
Achilles was sitting more to the side looking out the window because he was curious about the Underworld and next to him was Sebas reading a book.
"How long will it take us to arrive?" asked Arturia curiously to the King of Heroes.
"We will arrive in about an hour or so. Since this train apparently passes through the dimensional barrier using official means before it actually reaches the Underworld" replied Gilgamesh calmly.
Soon everyone calmed down as they waited for the arrival in the Underworld.
...
...
About 40 minutes into the match, everyone heard an announcement while they were passing the time playing cards.
[We will be crossing the dimensional barrier in moments. We'll be crossing the dimensional barrier in a moment].
"Try looking outside" Gilgamesh said quietly.
The scenery had changed, before the purple darkness had given way to a purple sky.
There were both mountains and rivers. Trees were also growing in abundance, and there were even forests below and houses were scattered all over the place.
Everyone looked out the window enjoying the scenery.
...
...
For another 10 minutes or so after that, the train continued through the Underworld.
That's when another announcement was made.
[We will soon be arriving at the Gremory main residence. We will soon be arriving at the Gremory main residence. Everyone, thank you for traveling on this train].
Everyone set to it and soon the train came to a complete stop and everyone stood up.
Looking up Gilgamesh noticed that Azazel had not gotten up.
"Aren't you going down Azazel?" asked Gilgamesh gaining the attention of the leader of the Fallen Angels.
"... I intend to continue through Gremory territory and go to Maou's territory. I have a meeting with Sirzechs and the others there. Such an 'invitation'. Since this seems to be the main Gremory residence, I'll come back as soon as I've seen them, and finish my greetings," Azazel said calmly while everyone else agreed.
Soon after that Rias and his Nobility headed outside followed by Gilgamesh and his group.
