The place they appeared after teleporting was in front of Jin's house. From that, Jin guessed that Vali had visited his house first before he tried to find Jin.
After teleporting and making sure that Jin had arrived safely, Vali said.
"Then I will be leaving first. Azazel wants to talk about something tonight, so free your schedule."
He then teleported away without waiting for Jin's answer.
Left alone, Jin let out a tired sigh. He remembered his spar earlier and felt shitty about it. It was one-sided, without him being able to hurt Vali with his Magic.
Only his fist hit him, and that was because his opponent didn't try to use that technique called 'Divine Dividing,' which, for some reason, halved the power of his Light Spears. Surely, Vali would be able to reduce the power of his punch too, or so he guessed.
"At least I now know that I need to work on my Magic. My close combat skill isn't a problem. I am able to fight him equally. But, ouch! That punch was really painful. I need to drink some milk to recover."
He walked toward the entrance of his house, dragging his sore body inside. As he entered his house and went to his room to drink milk that he had put in a safe bottle, he remembered Vali's words before he left.
"Azazel, huh? Perfect timing. I need to ask him about Rias' fianc and Lucifer."
Gulp! Gulp! Gulp!

Vali, who was teleported away, arrived inside an apartment. If Jin were here, he would recognize this place, as this was where he met Azazel two days ago.
Inside the apartment, Azazel was sitting on the floor in front of a big television as he held a game controller. The screen on the TV moved fast, playing the game of a bearded man with red clothes jumping around and crushing a mushroom monster with its feet.
When Vali appeared, Azazel raised his hand casually and said, "Yo! You're back! How is he?" He asked.
"He's good," Vali answered as he sat on the couch behind Azazel. "To be honest, I didn't expect him to be that good. Where is that woman? The one who brought him to you."
"Kalawarner? Ah, she's on an errand. But he's that good that you praised him, huh? It seems that I underestimated Jin too much. Hahahaha."
"Yeah, you did. Why didn't you tell me he could use Holy Magic and Senjutsu? Heck, he even used Youjutsu. Are you sure he's a human and not a youkai descendant?"
"Huh?" Vali's words caused Azazel to stop playing the game and turn around to him for the first time ever. "Did you say Holy Magic, Senjutsu, and Youjutsu? That guy did?"
"Yeah. I am certain." Vali nodded. "Come to think of it. He also mentioned he knew about Sekiryuutei. Quite unusual for a human who just got involved in Supernatural for a week."
"Ah, about that, Sekiryuutei is his brother. Anyway, are you for real? You're not joking about what you said, right?"
"I am serious. I thought that he was a youkai when he suddenly used Touki before our spar."
"That's interesting. But, Vali. Tell me something. How strong is he compared to Devils?"
"Devils?" Vali couldn't understand Azazel's question. Why did he compare Jin to a Devil? Indeed, it should be easy to compare it with Devil's power level, such as Mid-class, High-class, or even Ultimate-class, but it wasn't necessary.
"If we are talking about that, I guess his fighting ability is around Mid-class, but his overall power is around High-class. I even used Divide on him once. Is that enough reference?"
"Yeah, thanks," Azazel smirked mysteriously. "Then we will not need to move for that one. Just help him when he has trouble facing Kokabiel. I believe that's what that guy wants too."
"Well, if that's what you want. Am I free to go?"
"Sure, you can go." Azazel waved his hand to Vali. "Don't touch the Sekiryuutei yet, hear me? I want to have a good relationship with Hyoudou Jin."
"Yeah yeah, as you said."
Vali then teleported away, leaving Azazel with his game. However, he didn't continue the game. Instead, he stroked his chin and had a grin on his face.
"Holy Magic, Senjutsu, and Youjutsu. He even used Touki. How much technique did he hide from me? That guy is really interesting. I think I will give him room for growth again."

Back at Jin's house, he managed to recover after drinking 10 bottles of milk. These bottles of milk were all from Kuroka, so he gained quite a bit of EXP and Lifespan again.
Kalawarner was kind enough to help him collect the milk. As expected from his first personal cow. The most skilled of his personal cows in terms of Milking girls.
After recovering, Jin went to the living room and watched TV kill some time. He wanted to have some rest after exercising hard with Vali earlier.
To be honest, he was already a bit tired when he fought Vali after he tried to discover his new ability in the underground area of the church. He wasn't in his best shape, but he didn't even make some excuses just because of that.
A real fight wouldn't be so forgiving as to think about his condition. Hence, Jin accepted his loss against Vali.
"Thanks to that, I know something that I should fix. My Holy Magic is too monotonous. I should make some variations. Maybe creating a dome that encompasses my enemy? Or flying swords and axes instead of just spears?"
The program that he currently watched was about people competing to make weapons. There were many types of weapons, a great show for Jin, who looked for inspiration.
"A weapon, huh? I need to upgrade my Swordsmanship skill too. Where should I get it? Rather, is there any good Swordswoman around here?"
It would be ideal if there was any, Jin continued. Alas, something like that wouldn't come to his doorstep any moment.
Speaking of a doorstep. Suddenly, the door of his house slammed open, and a loud voice followed suit.
"Jin-kun! Where are you?!"
Jin turned around. The voice was familiar. It belonged to Sona. Another voice soon followed suit. It belonged to his brother.
"Kaichou! Please don't destroy the door of my house!"
"It's an emergency, Issei-kun! I will ask Tsubaki to fix it later!"
The voice was approaching Jin, and then her figure appeared from the open door that led to the hallway, together with his brother.
"What's wrong, Sona?" Jin asked casually as he smiled. "Did you miss me?"
As soon as he asked that, Sona facepalmed and let out a long relieved sigh. "I thought you were dead." Raising her head, she glared at Jin. "Jin-kun. I think we need to have a talk."
"Huh?" Jin couldn't understand. He looked at Issei and made a gesture of sleeping and an ear above his head. Thinking about it for a while, Jin finally connected the dot. "Ah!" He exclaimed in realization.
