Previously many of the Lords of some more prestigious Noble Houses of Wizards, like the Blacks, didn't want to associate themselves with the Death Eater movement...
At least openly not, but it was no secret that the current Lord Black, Arcturus III. Black outrage despised the Death Eaters, thinking of them as thugs who could fire two or three spells at defenseless muggles...
Something that Tom Riddle had to agree with.
It took a lot of effort to prevent newly reformed recruits from going "muggle hunting" because that would be setting a bad precedent and it was not something that a professional military should engage in.
Those who refused were put to peace.
Fortunately, Vali had a lot of experience with this because when the Empire was first established, they had some problems with unruly devils who often went to the human world and torturing or killing humans for fun.
Apparently, now that the Death Eaters as a collective have been disbanded and the Knights of the Walpurgis Order has risen in its place, which has slightly changed the ideology that was directed towards the non-magical as the ultimate threat to the Wizarding World.
Some of the conservative Lords and Nobles who didn't previously care about the blood supremacist movements started caring about the threat of muggles to the Wizarding World.
"Is there something more Abraxas?"
Tom asked when he saw that Abraxas still wanted to say something... but it was like it was stuck on his tongue.
"Yes... he would like to meet with your benefactor... I don't know how but Lord Back knows that the Knights of Walpurgis are backed by the devil."
Suddenly a moment of silence passed through the meeting room, as nobody knew what to say and even Vali, who was playing some games on his Holo-Brain.
Abruptly opened his eyes and looked directly at the Abraxas Malfoy.
"Did he say anything else?"
This time it was Vali who asked, immediately becoming serious because it should be impossible for any human to know that a devil descended onto the world...
Especially considering the fact that he was at peak Tier 11 Being of Law.
So there was one question that was in his mind and that was, how the hell somebody found out about his existence.
"No, Your Highness... though I remember that he said 'Avhe glorausan ro crimukon kaumn', I must apologize as I don't know the meaning of those words, Your Highness."
The moment the elderly man said that Vali froze there in shock because Abraxas Malfoy didn't know the meaning.
The standard translation would be "Glory to the Crimson Emperor", which was a title that his father wasn't using officially for thousands of years already.
Hearing this really piqued Vali's curiosity as much as it increased his vigilance over the entire situation because, depending on the outcome, this could be some sort of scheme or whatever.
He didn't know how a person from a sealed world like this in the Endless Void got knowledge not only about the Black Speech.
This bastardized language was primarily used by the devil worshippers in the various worlds, but also the greeting and the title of his father.
Though he had some sort of theory about that, which was a relatively plausible explanation for this, he would leave it for a later if it was indeed the truth.
The first thing that came into his mind was that Blacks were probably descendants of the devil worshippers who somehow ended up in this world.
Probably, some of the devil worshippers were conducting research into traversing worlds or traversing through the void or perhaps they found some treasure or device on which they experimented on and somehow ended up in this world several thousand years ago and founded the House of Black.
For that, he would need to meet with Lord Black to confirm his suspicions, but this was the only explanation that he could come up with at this time.
Vali then shook his head and looked at Lord Abraxas Malfoy before he nodded.
"I will be there... I am very eager to meet with the human."
Vali said with a grim voice as he looked at the people gathered in the room, while everyone else looked surprised that the devil wanted to meet with a human.
It wasn't a common secret that Vali didn't like humans very much, something similar, like they didn't like those of different blood status, though, in this aspect, it was a thing of racial superiority.
"And I want it to be as soon as possible... I don't like waiting for something like this important."
He then stated to finish off his previous statement as he opened his Holo-Brain once more and continued playing the games on the device.
In contrast, others continued discussing the developments of the Knights of Walpurgis Order and how to approach other Lords and influential Families.
Another part of the discussion was given on the topic of how to fend off Dumbledore's efforts before the meeting was concluded and only two people remained in the room, were Vali and Tom.
"Do you think that ancestors of the Blacks came from the same place?"
Tom Riddle asked after some time because this was indeed a most curious situation that had occurred here.
"Maybe... there have been countless people who experimented with traversing through the Endless Void despite their strength being meager and abysmal... or there is still a high possibility that they stumbled on some artifact that brought them here, whatever soon I will have my answers. Though if they indeed are the worshippers of the Baatorian Pantheon, it could probably explain some things."
Vali was referring to the Bounded Field that he felt in this world. When he first entered this world, he sensed several Bounded Fields and one of them was in Britain; though it was a primitive one, but it was strong enough to find off Tier 4s.
"Blacks have always been very reclusive and even compared to another Wizarding Families, they had an unnatural amount of Bloodline Abilities. Not to mention, they were known to produce very powerful Wizards, sometimes even several each generation if I think about it."
Vali didn't say anything to this, though from what he knew, the Bloodline Abilities among Wizards were exceedingly rare, like, very, very, very rare thing and a Noble Family that had actually several of them was indeed most peculiar.
