Chapter 66 - To Kyoto

A couple days later and it was time for Alex to leave for Kyoto. While he was preparing to leave, Rias Akeno, Koneko and Ravel were all waiting with teary eyes to say goodbye, as they wouldn't see him until the school trip ended. Alex planned to return with the trip students, as he wanted to spend a couple days relaxing there after fighting.

"I'll make sure to bring back several souvenirs, and don't worry." Rias couldn't help but worry because she suspected that he was going to fight. But she said,

"Well you got a former protecter of a god, and a Maou there with you, so just don't do anything stupid and I won't have any reason to worry." Alex chuckled at her words, and as if summoned Rosswiesse suddenly appeared from her room as well. She seemed the most nervous about going, as she couldn't help but think of this trip as the two of them spending time alone, even though serafall was going. She had been teased regarding Alex as her boyfriend several times by now, and was even starting to think that was the case. This thought was interrupted, when there was a knock at the front door. Rias opened it to reveal a magical girl.

"Magical girl Levia-tan, ready to go to Kyoto!πŸ’•" Serafall said as she struck a pose. Rias had a smile on her face and Alex just smiled. Since Sirzechs handed him Serafall for the next couple days, the he'd take the time to improve his relationship with her. She seemed to have gotten over the grievances from before, and was in a good mood to go to Kyoto.

***

The three of them were now in car that Rosswiesse was driving down the highway. Alex was sitting the other front seat, while Serafall took the entire back seat. Alex was looking at the country out the window with interest, so he didn't notice Rosswiesse looking at him from the side with a slight blush. It was one of her dreams to go on driving date with a guy, and with the two of them in the front it was starting to feel like her dream,

"I can't wait to go Kyoto, and maybe the youkai will show us the best hot springs!πŸ’•" Serafall suddenly said from the backseat, popping Rosswiesse's thought bubble. The three continued on their way, and apparently the Maou's excitement let her hold an entire conversation even with Alex, who harassed her a couple times in the past. After a few hours of driving the three finally arrived at Kyoto. They stopped, and Rosswiesse asked Alex,

"So where is the youkai leader at? Do you know how to get to them?" Alex shook his head and replied,

"I was just gonna visit a few places until I could find a youkai to point me, the way." The other two looked at Alex as if he was an idiot, and Rosswiesse looked to Serafall instead. She then puffed out her chest and exclaimed,

"Not to worry, Levia-tan knows where the inner Capitol is! Just go that way!πŸ’•" she declared, and Rosswiesse stared following her directions. They soon arrived at an isolated torii, and several people with the ears of animals came to greet them. Serafall stepped forward, now wearing a kimono, Alex had no idea when she changed.

"Good afternoon, I am the Maou Serafall leviathan, this is the rook of Rias Gremory Rosswiesse, and finally the one we made the trip for, the red dragon emperor, Alex. We would like to talk with your leader, Yasaka, about possibly cooperating with the alliance." The usual playful atmosphere around her was gone, the one standing in front of them was entirely a Maou. The one who came to greet them, a woman with the ears of a fox, then said,

"We are honored to welcome the Maou leviathan, our leader and princess wait to meet you in the inner Capitol. Please, follow me." The woman then turned and walked through the torii, and the three then followed her.

After stepping through the arch, Alex definitely felt as if he was in another world. There were houses looking as if they belonged to ancient Japan around him, and there were various beings surrounding them, and watching. Alex saw what he could only assume were kappa, tanuki, and a few other of the weirder youkai, like one with a long neck, or one eye, he even saw a dancing lantern. They all whispered around them as they walked,

"Are those Devils?"

"Devils are rare here."

"That ones powerful, I hope she doesn't try to do anything."

"Wait, look at that one, isn't he-?"

"A Devil, dragon, and something... Else?"

"What is he?"

Words like these followed them the entire way to palace like building. As Alex heard them talk about him, he started sweating a little, they could sense his Saiyan blood? Even if they didn't know what it was he didn't like this. They entered the palace like building, and were escorted to a meeting room. In the room was a beautiful, busty, blond woman wearing a kimono, and what looked like a smaller version standing next to her. As they entered the room the two bowed slightly and she said,

"Welcome to the inner Capitol, I am Yasaka, leader of the eastern youkai." Then the little girl next to her said,

"I am Kunou, princess of the eastern youkai." After they introduced themselves, the two girls stepped forward.

"I am Serafall leviathan, one of the four Maou of the underworld."

"I am Rosswiesse, former Valkyrie of Valhalla, and currently a rook of the heir of Gremory house, Rias Gremory." After Rosswiesse introduced herself Alex stepped forward,

"I am the red dragon emperor, Alex. It is a pleasure to meet you, Yasaka, leader of the eastern youkai." Yasaka nodded at Alex's greetings, but looked at him curiously.

" I heard about the current red dragon emperor being a devil, but haven't heard anything about you being part youkai." Alex's face twitched, and he resigned himself as he unwrapped his tail. He then said to her,

"I'm somewhat unusual, but I didn't think I qualified as a youkai." As far as Alex knew, when Goku was created he was based off of a youkai from 'journey to the west'. But with the other worlds wasn't sure if that applied, but based off of this worlds logic that didn't have aliens known as Saiyans, he now guessed he would qualify as a youkai. He wasn't sure about this before, and Koneko never seemed to react to him so he thought it wasn't the case. Maybe it was a side effect from trying to repress her own origins? Yasaka continued to look at him curiously, and said,

"I'm not sure, but I get a similar feeling from you as Sun Wukong and his descendants. No matter, you came for a reason, and we should discuss it before we get into the confusing topics. Now, what can I do or you red dragon?" Both Serafall and Rosswiesse stared listening attentively, they didn't bother with the youkai talk, after all they saw him go ape, but we're interested in why he would make a trip like this. Alex took a small breath and said plainly,

"In the next day or so, you are going to be kidnapped."
