As their conversation came to a bit of a lull, Jake asked Sairaorg where they were and what year it was. Sairaorg told him, confirming to Jake that he had truly sent himself forward 20 years in time. Apparently they were also in Sairaorg's territory in the underworld.
Yes, Sairaorg was technically the real 'Lord Bael' since he came of age as his father had mysteriously vanished 20 years ago after being declared a criminal... It wasn't exactly easy for Sairaorg to claim the title though.
He told Jake that his strength had been officially recognized as Lord Bael and as an ultimate class devil when some branch members of the Bael clan tried to take his birthright of lord from him due to him not inheriting the power of destruction.
In response to their challenge of his birthright, Sairaorg then challenged all of his clans naysayers all at the same time and beat the crap out of them for the whole underworld to see!
His mother, who Jake remembered being a total milf, had also been extremely supportive of him the entire time.
After speaking about his mother, Sairaorg actually bowed to Jake in appreciation. "I would like to thank you and Blaze for saving her!" He said with his head lowered and with great sincerity.
*Chirp chirp* Blaze, who had been flying around, chirped in reply to Sairaorg.
"And thank you as well, Noble Phoenix Blaze." Sairaorg waved at Jake's familiar in the sky. Jake was a bit confused at his sudden thanks.
"Um...you're welcome?" Jake questioned. He had no idea what he was being thanked for. Sairaorg then went on to explain to him that apparently his mother had fallen into something called the devil's sleeping sickness.
Not much was known about the illness, except that once a devil had it and fell asleep, they would never wake again.
However, the vial of true phoenix tears that had been paid to Sairaorg when they met as children was actually able to wake his mother, Misla, from her eternal sleep.
Sairaorg then continued and told Jake that after his mother awoke, the news of her awakening from a 'miracle cure' had spread all over the underworld.
People from all over wanted to seek out the 'Noble Phoenix Blaze' along with its mysterious master so they could cure their relatives who had been affected by the sleeping sickness as well!
The 'mysterious master' never showed himself, but apparently Jake's peerage member, the enigmatic Luna Lovegood, had handled all of the negotiations and payments in his name.
Sairaorg went on to explain that Jake was apparently filthy rich now after profiting heavily from Blaze's tears! Jake was blown away by that news.
One moment he's fighting for his life and the next he's accidentally time traveled again and then he had some money to his name.
Jake might have missed out on that thousand galleon prize from the tournament, but he didn't care about that anymore. He was apparently loaded now! Jake looked up to his phoenix flying in the sky, still happy at his return.
He gave him a smile, "Blaze, you're absolutely awesome and can have all the bacon you want forever!" Blaze chirped ecstatically over that! It had the best master in the whole world!
The phoenix thought to itself that his master was way better than Fawkes's old wrinkled master! The two had something of a rivalry for the past few decades due to them being the only current living phoenixes...
Before Jake could ask Sairaorg any more questions, a sound that resembled a ringing phone went off nearby. Sairaorg reached into his pocket and answered the phone he had pulled out.
"Yeah, I'm here," he spoke to whoever was on the other end. "And he finally arrived too," Sairaorg said with excitement in his voice as he looked at Jake. He ended the call and slipped the phone back into his pocket.
"Come on," he said to Jake. "Let's go. You've got some people who want to see you, who've been waiting a long time."
Jake simply nodded as Sairaorg slung the body of his unconscious father over his shoulder and grabbed Jake's arm with his other hand. Jake assumed Sairaorg was going to teleport them somewhere.
Maybe to Luna? What would she even look like after all this time? Jake figured she'd probably look pretty good, considering she was an immortal devil now too.
"So, devils have cell phones," Jake said jokingly.
Sairaorg just scoffed, "Of course we have cell phones. We're not savages running around with pitchforks down here in the underworld, after all. Now, let's go." He said holding onto Jake securely.
A teleportation circle formed underneath Sairaorg and Jake, and they vanished in a flash of light.

When the bright light faded, Jake found himself standing in an extremely luxurious room, definitely the ritziest place he'd ever been in his life.

"Jake! It's so good to see you again!" Across from him and Sairaorg was Jake's older brother, Sirzechs. He was there along with his maid-wife, Grayfia, and another incredibly beautiful woman who somewhat resembled Misla Bael.
Jake just gave his brother a tired wave. "Hey. I'm back... I guess." Jake actually found himself shocked as Sirzechs moved at incredible speed and embraced his younger brother in a tight hug.
"Welcome back," Sirzechs said as he released him a few seconds later. "And I'm so glad you finally let Onii-chan hug you! Last time you didn't let me!" Sirzechs continued, his eyes almost tearing up in happiness. He was really overbearing with affection...
"Ahem." Grayfia interrupted her husband's embarrassing display of affection. "It is good to see you again, Lord Jake, and you too as well, Lord Bael." Grayfia addressed Sairaorg as well.
"It's always good to see you again, Grayfia," Sairaorg replied. "And you too, cousin and Aunt Venelana."
Jake leaned over and whispered to Sairaorg, "Aunt?" He questioned.
"Indeed," Sairaorg answered him. "Allow me to introduce Venelana Gremory, formerly of the Bael clan." He explained to Jake.
"It's nice to finally meet my stepson," she greeted Jake with a kind smile. That was relieving to him. He was afraid she might end up hating him and being an evil stepmom or the like. Maybe he'd just seen too many movies...
