When Rias and Kuroka saw a humanoid dragon looking back at them all their words froze. It looked confused for a moment then realized what was wrong and changed back into the Alex they knew. As he looked at them he saw that they were in a building and said,
"I'm fine but where are you?" The two looked uncomfortable at his words and replied,
""Gremory castle..."" Alex's brow twitched and he said,
"Isn't there a terrorist attack right now, why are you guys still there?" He wasn't playing stupid, he could see their red and puffy eyes from crying. Though he felt bad for making them worry but the situation was bad right now and they were needed. Rias then said,
"But we thought we lost you!" Alex sighed and said,
"If I did die your saying that you would just sit there and mope, instead of going out and doing something about it, like repaying my killers or something?" Once again they looked uncomfortable at his words, and Alex continued,
"Just go and do your parts, I'm in the dimensional gap with Ophis and great red so I'll be back soon, but I'm not sure when." The two nodded, now feeling shame at their lack of action, and swiftly left. Neither of them realized they left a very confused monkey behind them. After the video call with them ended Alex turned and recalled that Ophis was next to him. He suddenly had a bad feeling as he didn't try to hide the call, until,
'Wait, what?' Alex was confused, did she now know about his background? Lauren answered his unspoken question,
'Yep, she was listening to the conversation of Ddraig and great red and learned about your origins from that.' Alex felt his brow twitching again and asked,
'Ddraig and the two girls I understand, but isn't the secrecy rule a little loose if both Ophis and great red know about it now?' Lauren seemed to mentally shrug but didn't reply. He then turned to Ophis and said,
"With the new power I have I can take others with me to other worlds, would you like to go and see it while I deal with the opponents Shalba left and Cao Cao? I'll go and get you once the fighting is done." Ophis looked interested and nodded her head. The two then disappeared into a cloud of fog.
Alex reappeared a couple hours later after leaving Ophis in Asora for the time being , and sat on great reds head. He tried to familiarize himself with his newfound strength before he started fighting again. This went on until great red started growling, and a giant crack appeared in the space, beyond it Alex could see a city, and a giant beast about to approach it. Alex smiled at his new tester for his strength, and a golden aura wrapped around him, and his gauntlet appeared on his arm.

Grayfia was leading the group to fight the jabberwockey, and they weren't making any headway on it. All the damage they dealt was repaired almost instantly, and it was also spawning smaller monsters that would try to spread and destroy the surroundings. As she was thinking of a way to deal with it a deafening noise sounded through the area, and she looked up to see a giant crack forming in the sky. Appearing from it was a giant red dragon, that had an oppressive, yet familiar aura on its head.
"Great red, and... Alex?" She murmured out loud as the duo came closer. She could then see Alex glowing in his golden transformation on top of great reds head, before he suddenly disappeared.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!
A shockwave spread throughout the area as Alex reappeared when he hit the jabberwockey, and sent it flying back a short ways. Grayfia and the rest of her husbands peerage were dumbfounded, as Alex then got under it and started throwing it up into the air
BOOM
BOOM
BOOM
Over and over he hit it, launching it further and further into the air, before he disappeared again and reappeared at the ground. Alex then placed his hands together at his side, one gauntleted, and started saying,
"KAAAAAAA, MEEEEEEEEEE,"
The jabberwockey turned to face him while in the air and its mouth opened as it started to prepare to breath fire.
"HAAAAAAA, MEEEEEEEEEEE,"
A sphere of light appeared in his hands that started growing in intensity before,
It suddenly grew in size and light before he finally finished.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
The sphere of light shot up towards the jabberwockey as it bellowed flames in retaliation, only to be swallowed entirely. As the light faded all trace of the jabberwockey vanished, and it disappeared from existence. In its place was a hole to the dimensional gap, left by the intensity of the attack. Grayfia was dumbfounded at the situation, a being she and the rest of her peerage couldn't defeat, Alex eliminated in mere moments singlehandedly. Before anyone could say anything,
The gauntlet restarted and Alex flew up into the air, and closed his eyes. As this happened several ki spheres started forming around him, and started growing in intensity. They finally stopped at eleven, the same number of bandersnatches left after Serafall eliminated one, and the gauntlet kept boosting. Once it finally reached twenty two boosts,
Once more the ki spheres around him started glowing dangerously, and Alex opened his eyes and said,
"Search and destroy." As his words finished the spheres shot out, and traveled in different directions. After a few moments the ground started shaking as each sphere found its target and destroyed it. Grayfia started sweating at the difference in level, as Alex made his way over.
"I'll leave the smaller monsters to you, I'm gonna head into the city to find Rias and the others." At his words she regained her composure and said,
"Of course, thank you for your help." Alex nodded and before he left turned to great red who had watched the whole thing and was starting to return to the dimensional gap, suddenly,
"Zoom Zoom Iyaaan. Zoom Zoom Iyaaan!" Alex was dumbfounded, while Grayfia and the rest looked at the giant dragon curiously and wondered what it was trying to say. Alex then asked Ddraig,
'Did it learn about that from my dreams as well?!' The dragon sighed and said,
The two didn't talk about it anymore, and turned to go to the city.
