After arriving at the Military HQ and seeing Hela, I sensed something very different about her, in her aura to be precise.
"You have reached it?"
I exclaimed shocked.
"Yes, just two days ago I have finally finished digesting Divine Authority from Divine Spark of Ereshkigal."
Said Hela happily, as she hugged me out of a sudden. Our relationship changed from the formal one, to more friendly. Hela also tuned down a lot and started getting calmer, not consumed by her emotions.
"That is fantastic. Here take this."
I said while I gave her 50 High-Grade Divine Crystals so she can increase her Divine Power or use them whatever she wants. To a Greater God, usually, the High-Grade Divine Crystals won't have much effect, but she was newly advanced so she can use them to increase her Divine Power by at least 500 Units, which is a pretty nice increase.
She looked surprised seeing me giving her more High-Grade Divine Crystals, as she was aware that I had a limited amount of them, and most of them were used either on Vena, Grayfia, or her, while a large part was used on the army. I was left with only x100 High-Grade Divine Crystals, that would be used to increase my physique to limit of Satan-Class in the large-scale ritual I planned to conduct.
I was still researching the ritual, as it was very complicated to devise. Strengthening rituals were very hard, and my knowledge of mysticism was still limited, so I predicted I would finish the ritual in a year.
"Thanks."
She said quietly, as I went to her and lift her chin to look at her eyes.
During my relationship with Vena and Fia, I have learned a lot about the man and woman relationships and noticed that Hela had feelings for me, but she was shy, prideful, and even more inexperienced in these things than me.
And that was something to behold.
I slowly approached her, as I kissed her gently on her lips, she was shocked at first, not sure about what to do, but soon she returned my kiss with equal passion, as my hands trailed down through her curves and her body, as I enjoyed every second of it.
After we have separated I could feel her hot breath as we looked at each other's eyes.
"We can continue later... now our duties are calling."
I said, as Hela nodded and we entered the Central Command, which was filled with projections of the Underworld, and officers were running here and there.
There were around forty people in the Central Command, most of them were Generals of my Legions, then Hela as the supreme commander of my military and there were also, some Heads of Vassals from the 72 Pillars.

"Now that everyone is here, start with the reports on the situation."
I commanded as I sat down on the throne that was prepared for me.
"My Lord, we have received a message that your Lordships can advance as one of the major devil armies of the Underworld. Others being the Six Houses of Lucifer, Asmodeus, Leviathan, Beelzebub, and Bael. With you, there would be six major armies. You have been given control over 31 Pillars of the 72 Pillars, by the order of Great Satan Lucifer."
Stated General Amyke.
I was expecting something like this, though I was surprised seeing House of Bael command one of the major armies. Probably Original Lucifer trusted only me and Zekram with control over the 72 Pillars, while the rest of the Satan Houses don't want to meddle with devils they consider lesser.
"Very good, what next? Are there any movements from the Grigori or Angels?"
I asked.
"Legions of the Fallen Angels have started advancing, but they are slow and add to that, they have a lot of internal disputes between powerful Ten-Winged Cadre-Class Angels, especially there is a lot of tension between Azazel and several Cadres such as Satanael and Kokabiel. Also, we have heard that Archangel of Death, Azrael the Fallen, won't be participating in the war, but instead, he delved deeper into the Underworld with his Death Guard."
Expaliend General Ragnar.
Fact that the Archangel of Death Azrael won't be participating in the war, is one of the best pieces of news I have heard today. He was the most powerful Archangel, that ever existed, if not for Yahweh being alive, he would reach Throne Archangel Level, which was the same as the Apocalypse-Class, but just for Angels.
Still, Yahweh put a lot of limitations on the Angels he created, not allowing them to get stronger than he was, most they could reach was only Twelve-Winged Archangel-Class. There were many occurrences in history where Angels betrayed their gods in the Astral Boundary, be it intentional or unintentional, but Yahweh didn't take any chances.
"That is good, Azrael is too powerful, even more than pinnacle Greater God, but I wonder why did he disappear. Under his leadership, Grigori could have a real chance to win this war, but now... they are just an annoyance."
Grigori had only several Archangels, and all of them were very strong, and most importantly were geniue one, not artificially elevated to that level. Azazel was the Governor-General of the Grigori, then Azrael, the Archangel of Death, and finally Ariel.
Among those three, Ariel was the weakest one, while Azrael was the strongest one. Azazel was somewhere in the middle, but he wasn't much fighter, as he was rather a scientist, who was basically forced to be General-Governor of the Grigori, due to being one of the first Angels to Fall. Without Azrael, Grigori wasn't that much of a threat in terms of powerhouses, but that could easily change if some strong Angels fall during the war.
Even Archangels could fall rather easily, history is my witness.
"You mentioned internal conflict... what is that about?"
If there are tensions between sub-factions of Grigori, it would be a shame to not use them.
