After another clash, Kenji backflipped away from Akame, over the dragon's head, and landed behind it. Letting the dragon distract Akame, he placed his sword into his scabbard, and focused for a second, commanding the blade of his choice to attach itself to the hilt of his sword.
Just as Akame had finished dodging another blast of water from the dragon, she turned, and saw that Kenji had drawn his sword again, the sword having a red blade this time around.
Kenji was even more on the offensive this time around, throwing strike after strike at Akame, with speed neither Akame nor Kenji knew that they had.
Kenji increased the ferocity of his attacks by using the red-hot fires of his blade to put some serious strain on Akame, who was mentally thanking whatever battle-god (probably Thor or Tyr) for making her be on her A-game for this fight.
Akame pushed back, increasing the speed of her attacks until she was almost a blur, attacking, rushing backwards, then attacking from a different direction, which threw Kenji quite off course, as Akame had managed to land a long, clean, yet shallow, cut into Kenji's back with her latest attack.
Akame jumped backward for the eleventh time, and rushed, faster than the speed of sound, at Kenji, knowing that the fight was over.
But, alas, Kenji had a sneaky trick hidden up his sleeve.
As Akame rushed towards him, Kenji (who had sheathed his sword seconds earlier), drew out his sword, and spun around a full three hundred and sixty degrees.
Akame was feet away from Kenji, when she felt herself being blown backwards by a huge gust of wind. When she got a look at Kenji's sword, she saw that it was the grey wind blade that he had talked about.
Akame momentarily lost her footing, which was the moment Kenji needed to propel himself at her.
Using gusts of wind to further throw Akame off, Kenji slowly worked Akame further and further backwards, until she finally took a hand off her sword to try and regain her footing…
And Kenji struck Akame's sword with precision, sending the sword out of her weakened hand.
"Looks like I win this one. " Kenji said, grinning and placing the sword back in its scabbard.
"Good fight, Akame. "
"Good fight, Kenji. " She said, taking his hand and pulling herself up.
Kenji gave her a kiss on the cheek, and magic-circled away. Akame blushed as red as her eyes from the kiss, and teleported away as well.
Line Break
Kenji walked out of the lift of his house, wearing a change of clothes. The Sabaton shirt and training pants had gotten really goddamn sweaty after his fight with Akame.
"Hi, Dad, sis, other sis, Val. " He said, jumping over the back of the sofa and landing between Penemue and Valian.
"What's up?"
"Hello, son. " Azazel said.
"We, that is to say, myself, Penemue and Albedo, wanted to tell you and Valian something. "
"Oh?" Kenji raised an eyebrow. "And what would that be?"
"Well. " Azazel said.
"Both you and Valian have been voted, by an 8 to 1 majority, into the Cadre. " Kenji raised an eyebrow.
"Oh, nice. " He replied.
"So what would Valian and I exactly be required to do?"
"Well, you'd just have to attend a Cadre meeting every once in a while. " Azazel replied.
"And you'd also have to choose one of our departments to be a part of. "
"Departments?" Kenji raised his other eyebrow.
"Do you think the Grigori runs itself, Kenji?" Azazel asked, jokingly. "But in all seriousness, every member of the Cadre is the head, or the Vice-Head, in two cases, of a department.
There's the Department of Special Technology, which is the tech-stuff for the whole Grigori, which is run by me. "
"There's the Department of Inter-Faction Affairs, which is all about the relations Grigori has with other factions and pantheons. " Penemue continued.
"Run by Shemhazai. There's the military, self-explanatory, which is run by Baraqiel.
The Vice-Head of the military is Kokabiel. "
"Nasty piece of work, him. " Albedo said, a dark look in her golden eyes.
"I always hated that bastard. "
"Me too. " Penemue concurred with her sister.
"But anyway, there's the Magical Research department, which is all about researching magic, how it works and what the limits of magic are. That's run by Armaros.
He's… weird. "
"There's the department of Astronomical Research. " Albedo continued.
"Which is pretty self-explanatory, and run by Sahariel. He's okay, just don't get on his bad side.
Another department is the Business Department, which is economy-based stuff, I don't really know much about it. That department's run by Tamiel.
He's okay, too. "
"Then there's the Department of Medicine. " Azazel continued.
"Which is that giant hospital in the middle of the capital, and all the weird and wonderful shit that goes on inside it. Run by Albedo.
"
"Then there's the Education Department. " Penemue finished up.
"Self-explanatory. I head the Education Department, by the way.
. "
Idly discarding a dirty thought that involved Penemue in a teacher outfit and Albedo in a nurse outfit, Kenji looked at Azazel.
"So we can choose to go into any department of the Grigori we want to. "
"Yup. " Azazel replied.
"The choice is completely yours. "
"Alright. " Kenji said.
"I guess I'll go into the Special Technology department. I am a bit of a techie myself.
"
"Yeah, that computer and the whole setup of the gaming room was entirely your work. " Valian said.
"That room is amazing, by the way. "
"Thanks. " Kenji replied.
"I do try. "
"There's a surprise. " Valian snarked.
"But anyway, I think I'll go into the Affairs department, with Shemhazai. "
"Good choices, the pair of you. " Azazel said.
"I look forward to working with my Vice-Head of Special Technology, and I bet Shemhazai looks forward to working with his Vice-Head of Inter-Faction Affairs. "
Kenji and Valian nodded, grinning.

"Alright, everyone. " Azazel addressed the 11 (including himself, his son, and his daughter-in-law) Cadre, a couple of days after Kenji and Valian had chosen their jobs in the Cadre.
