DxD: King of Salt

"Well, I felt your presence on Earth so I decided to see what it is. You seldom come out of Othrys." Nyx said as she sat on the ground.

"Well, a lot of things happened. You didn't know?" Gaia said as she sat beside her sister.

"I was in my home so no, I don't know what you're talking about." Nyx said to her sister with a shrug.

"Fine. I do need someone to talk with anyway." Gaia said with a sigh as she looked at her sister as she got ready to tell her about the happenings.

Meanwhile at Heaven

"You're what!?" Lilith, Iblis and Livyatan said at once when they heard what had happened at Othrys from Zadkiel.

When he had reached Heaven he was greeted by the sight of his three sisters, two of them had come to Heaven to visit him and he had decided that instead of keeping the deal a secret it would be best if he were to come clean about it. He knew that it was going to become public knowledge anyway.

"B-B-But big brother. Those three are Titans, they might be scheming something." Iblis said to him shocked.

"Don't worry. Even if they are doing something they won't be able to deceive me. And even if they did, Father would still be able to see what is happening." Zadkiel said to her in a reassuring tone.

"But what if they try to attack you for revenge?" Livyatan asked him concerned.

"Yes big brother. Especially if they are the Titanesses of Moon, Magic and Victory." Lilith said to him worried.

"Don't worry. They won't defeat me. They're very weak." Zadkiel said with a cheerful smile.

And he wasn't kidding. Sure they were strong but they didn't have the raw control, knowledge and experience that he possesses due to the amount of training and studies that he had done in his life. The fact that he could fight against Gaia is more than a testament of his might.

"I suppose that's true." Lilith said as she saw the reason in his words.

"Don't worry about it. So—" Zadkiel said but was interrupted when a portal opened beside them.

They looked at the portal with Iblis and Livyatan stunned at seeing it as Tiamat walked out of the portal. Sensing her energy both the demons were ready to attack but were stopped by Zadkiel as he raised his hand at them signalling them to stop, which they did. Though they still kept a close eye on the Goddess as she moved to Zadkiel.

"You're... back." Tiamat said as she stood in front of him.

"Yes. I am." Zadkiel said with a nod.

Then Tiamat hugged Zadkiel as she placed her chin on his left shoulder as he hugged her back with a smile as he rubbed her back. Iblis and Livyatan are looking at the two with wide eyes and their mouths open. They looked at Lilith as she chuckled.

"A few things happened when you guys were out." Lilith said to the two with a smile.

'Though I would have liked those marriages to not happen.' Lilith thought to herself in a bit of anger.

"Eve taught... me to... make garland... Can you... come?" Tiamat asked him as she looked at him.

"Sure. Girls, let's follow Tiamat now." Zadkiel said as he turned to the three girls.

"Okay." The three demons said in unison.

Then the five of them went through a portal created by Tiamat as they were now at Eden as Tiamat went forward to a flower patch while the rest watched her.

"So, how have you two been?" Zadkiel asked his two sisters.

"We are doing fine. We decided to take parts of Hell for ourselves and divided it amongst us. Lucifer wanted to rule us but the four of us just attacked him together and stopped him." Iblis said with a proud face.

"It's a good thing that Beelzebub and Asmodeus just want to go do their own things instead of being under another so they were more than happy to band against Lucifer." Livyatan said to him with a calm face.

"I see. I would've thought that you two would come straight to Heaven after a week." Zadkiel said to the two of them.

"Well, we had to make sure that our places were fine so we took some time. Those classes you gave us on architecture were a great help." Livyatan said to him with a smile.

"We also used a lot of magic, though it is a bit difficult due to the new energy that we have due to becoming demons." Iblis said to him as she manifested a ball of demonic energy in her hand.

"Hmm. I'm glad to hear that my lessons are of help to you. I have been helping Lilith practice with her demonic energy as well. I can help you two as well." Zadkiel said to them with a smile.

"Thank you brother! But, who is that goddess and why is she here?" Livyatan asked him as she looked at Tiamat.

"Oh, she is Tiamat. The Primordial Goddess of Sea Water and Chaos and the child of Enki. I saved her before she was attacked by Marduk." Zadkiel said to them with a smile.

"T-Tiamat!" Iblis and Livyatan said in shock at once as they looked at the goddess who is almost done making her garland.

"Yeah. I was surprised as well when I learned about that." Lilith said as she smiled a bit nervously.

"Wait a minute. Then that means that the thing about Marduk killing Tiamat is false." Iblis said as she realised it.

"Yes. Though we are going to keep her survival a secret. She doesn't want to fight anyone anyway." Zadkiel said to the two of them.

"It's done..!" Tiamat said as she smiled with a flower garland in her hands.

"It's beautiful." Zadkiel said as she walked towards him.

When she reached him she placed the flower garland on his head as he smiled at them as she touched her fingertips and smiled at the sight.

"How is... it?" Tiamat asked him as she looked at him.

"I love the garland Tiamat." Zadkiel said with a smile.

"Aaaahhhh!" Tiamat cried in happiness before she hugged him tight.

'Yep. She loves him.' Lilith, Iblis and Livyatan thought to themselves with a calm face and a small smile as they looked at the happy face that the goddess has.

"Yes it is lovely Tiamat." Zadkiel said with a laugh.

"Big brother!" Eve shouted in a happy tone as she ran towards him followed by Adam.

"Hey you two." Zadkiel greeted them as he stopped hugging Tiamat.

"You're back your back!" Eve shouted as she hugged him as he laughed at her energy.

'She is so adorable.' Zadkiel thought to himself as he looked at her.

"It looks like you're fine." Adam said to him with a smile.

"Yes. There wasn't much they were willing to do, unless they wanted to strain the relation between us and them." Zadkiel said with a smile.

"Me too..." Tiamat said as she also hugged Zadkiel.

"Hey we haven't gotten our hugs as well." Iblis and Livyatan said as they also hugged him.

"I think you should move Eve." Adam said as he pulled Eve back as she didn't resist his pull.

"Me too." Lilith said as she also joined in the hug.

"You girls." Zadkiel said with a small laugh as he opened his wings and wrapped it around them while Adam and Eve watched.

'I am truly lucky to have them.' Zadkiel thought to himself as he looked at the girls and the couple in front of him.

'I will make sure that Heaven is protected and all those who are good.' Zadkiel thought to himself as he smiled.
