Explanation: The words “The Gate” is broken into pieces.
Summary of Receipt
The invitation wasn’t a trap. Satan just explained his entire plan. Basically, he’ll use Manager 7’s touch to break the Gates of Hell, instead of using the Seven Keys of Hell. And if the CaD doesn’t comply, he’ll activate the black blood in his parish’s bodies, unleashing about three hundred Miss. level demons. The CaD will talk with Division Alpha to try and plan.

Well, that was enlightening. I was fully prepared for an ambush or trap or something, but that was what was promised. Satan just laid out his plans for us. I think he did it as a threat? That’s the impression I got, anyway. Though if I’m being honest, I’m left not so much scared as I am wondering how exactly he’s planning to actually do any of this. No big surprises Satan is looking to break open a “gate” to payback an external “debt.” Put the pieces together and you get: Satan’s trying to break the Devil out. Again.
Except, he is convinced he doesn’t need the seven Keys of Hell to open the Gate, he just needs the touch of a certain Half-Prince, Julia Morningstar. Well, Julia Wandsun-Morningstar. Well, Manager No. 7. So how does he expect to force Julia into unleashing the ultimate evil upon the universe? Well, Satan has threatened unleashing is full parish of cataclysmic half-demons on the west coast and beyond. 10 bucks to whoever guessed that I think it was the Zombie chick. But, yeah, if Julia doesn’t play along, he’s going to “rupture” his human flock into horrifying black blooded half-demons and just let them run loose.
It sorta goes without saying that:
A) We’re pretty sure that’s not how the Gates of Hell works
B) We’re not going to let Julia be a weird pawn of Satan
C) We’re not going to let Satan just crack open the Gates of Hell, regardless
No. 1 did confirm though that Satan isn’t making idle bluffs, his human flock is literally bursting with black Satan blood. Strong, strong stuff. With a snap of his fingers, they could all become temporary Miss. customers, and we’re talking like 200-300 here. So we can’t just ignore Satan either. In any case we’re going to confer first with Alfa and see if the Lighthouse can somehow… I don’t know, deescalate things a bit? And it’s not just Julia I’m worried about. Satan also has his mitts on No. 26 and No. 44, and even No. 512 to some extent (unless her other black blood cancels out his somehow.)
Things are looking bleak. Again, I didn’t vote to let this maniac out again. Just sayin’.
