Chapter 15: Meeting up with the king doesn't sound so bad
"Can I change my job for a second before all of this?"
"Ah me too"
"Me as well!"
"Same here"
Seems everyone wanted to change their jobs but I went in first so let's see what kind of jobs will pop up this time.
『 Jobs that can be selected:[Great Archer],[Sniper][Monster Tamer][Demon King][Dragon Knightess][Great Berserker][Sword Saint][Axe Saint][Commander][Necromancer][Club Saint][Appraisal Master][Battle Saint][Sword Cleric][Great Rogue][Great Assassin][Elder God][Evil God Slime][Demiurge][Sophia][Yggdrasil's Dusk][Sword God][Greater Evil God][World Slime][Destruction God][Dark Matter Mage][Creation God][Battle Machine][Level Devourer][Divine Summoner][Blood Soaked Demon God][Yukiyo][Nyarlathotep's Archbishop][Hastur's Archbishop][Fleeting Fate of Power]』
Holy shit…..these jobs are so abnormal if anyone were to find out I even have them I would be in trouble…meh fuck it I am strong I'll figure something out. Also am I so abnormal that my name appears as a job that I can take now??
『Yes, you have grown powerful enough to become an example of strength and something to strive for. That is how many jobs are born after all, so which one shall you take?』
Sophia said with a clear tone of interest making me quite nervous I had been joking about taking the Demon King job for a while now since that is a treasure trove of trouble but since I am already knee deep in this I will choose it.
『Job: Demon King has leveled up!』『You have acquired the following skills: Status Effect Immunity(Fusing with Status Effect Resistance to form Unique Skill: Absolute Status Effect Control), Dungeon Creation, Seven Deadly Sin Skill Induced Damage (Passive), Constant Damage (Passive), Monster Creation, Monster Fusion, Monster Force Level Up, Monster Force Evolution (Fusing Monster Related Skills to form Unique Skill: Monster God), Absolute Demon King Aura (Passive), Demon King Skill Inherit』『You have acquired the titles : Great Demon King, Secret Demon King, Demon King Core』
"EH?!"
『I thought as much would happen』
"How?!"
『Quick, choose another job your friends are waiting for you』
Sophia was right, there was no time to be shocked so I ended up choosing Dark Matter Mage ignoring the Greater Demon King job that had appeared next to Dragon Knightess.
『You have acquired the following skills: Space Warp(Fusing with Teleportation to form Rift Portal) , Dimensional Storage, Limited Time Control, Dark Matter Healing, Skill Transfer, Weapon Form Shifting 』
Are we even going to talk about me opening portals like some eldritch god, wait I am an eldritch god in one form or another, even my jobs are getting just as ridiculous as me. I exited the room after turning off the Absolute Demon King Aura skill and sat right next to Rem who was staring at me again.
"You chose an odd job didn't you?"
"hahahahaha"
I laughed coyly because I knew that only Rem and the guild's trusted employees, such as the vice guild master were allowed to know what kind of jobs I took into myself. I'll transfer some skills to Sev because I don't want them, I'll give her the Limited Time Control skill that way she'll eventually be a Time Witch. That's an awesome job to have, it existed in the fictional works of my world and was said to be very powerful. If it evolves beyond that I am sure Sev will be happy, I drank my cup of rum and it tasted sweet this will be one hell of a trip. After a while it seemed everyone was done I had been thinking up of ways to avoid having to take a long journey suddenly came up with something, Rem had a strange look on her face saw me smirk and her grimace became even more apparent.
"Wait what are you-"
"Ssssssh"
I grabbed Rem and Notte and immediately ripped a hole in space and time using my skill.
"Ah…"
"…."
"We'll be back soon everyone!"
I hopped in with these surprised lil people and began to view the inside, it was beautiful, an ever changing landscape that was making me smile at every turn. It was snowflakes in bright colors and flowers as well, well I love this place but I have got somewhere to go. I ran towards the door at the end and it was a fairly short trip. This was really precious more than it should have but I had to do what I had to do.
☆
"Yo"
"UWAH?!"
Frank screamed pretty loudly and I almost wanted to laugh but I was unable to, I let Notte and Rem down for a second.
"What?But how?!"
"Don't ask Frank you'll end up with more questions than answers"
"...alright. So that is the Demon King's daughter I presume?"
"Yes I am, pleased to meet you"
"Same here. How did you meet Yukiyo?"
"I followed the rumors of the one who killed my father. At first I got angry that my kill was stolen from me but then I saw what kind of being she is and admired her as now study under her as a student. I intend to gain great power"
"I see…..you're enigmatic as usual aren't you Yukiyo?"
"Hehehe…."
"I suppose Rem told you already what is to occur right?"
"She said that you contacted those from my land that you would like to go on friendly terms with us, personally that makes me more happy than ever because it brings my father's wish closer"
"What kind of wish is that?"
"Coexistence with every race"
"Hahahaha your father and our king could have made fine friends, you probably will too"
"I guess it is time to go as well"
I said with a timer in my head knowing that we had to meet up with the king later on.
"Wait are you going to be using that teleportation spell or whatever"
"Its not teleportation, I opened a rift in space and time to get here. Teleportation takes time after all"
""…..""
"As expected of Master"
"Heh"
"See I told you, I wouldn't be surprised if she is halfway being a god"
"..."
"Her silence proves it too, alright let's go back with the Marquis this time and he should mentally prepare himself"
"Alrighty"
"What is this rift like Rem?"
"Beautiful, more than I could imagine"
"Master I wanted to ask"
"Fire away"
"How do I become like you?I want to be just as graceful as you in terms of power?"
"I honestly don't know how to answer that but I can train you like the kids who I dropped off here earlier"
"I accept that, but what about the aura that surrounds you?"
"I can give you a lower version of that skill, are you fine with that? But only after training a bit"
"I am excited"
"Your face doesn't show any excitement but your tail certainly says everything"
"I am prepared Yukiyo"
"Alrighty let's gooooo!!!"
I opened another rift portal that spooked the Marquis a bit but he calmed down after looking at the beautiful inside as well. No sooner than we entered everyone myself included had arrived at the adventurer's guild.
"You're back, it only seemed like a moment ago barely any time passed"
"Its working as intended"
"Oh dear I can see your point Rem. She is a being who can change how we see the world"
"Told ya so"
"So is everyone ready?"
"Yes we are"
"Rem, Marquis Franklin please picture the royal throne room I am sure the both of you have been there"
"We have"
I wanted to appear cool so I took my sword and cut the rift portal, everyone at the guild marvels at this and I exit with the people needed. Surprisingly enough we had already arrived through the cuts I made earlier, I had to gasp for a moment as the scene was beautiful. The throne room's walls were adorned by a black stone that give off a curious shine, the chandelier was filled with shining gems as well as the numerous flags that were held by goddesses pointing to the sky, the red carpet had golden lining on it with the throne being black crystal with a dragon's head just above the king's head. I didn't except this but the king himself was fairly young looking like he was in middle school, his youthful face was filled with determination, his powerful teal blue eyes were brimming with curiosity and he wore a uniform that made it clear that he had authority in this country. Rem and Marquis Frank bow to him with the other figures in the room following suit.
"So you are Yukiyo I have heard so much about you"
"I am pleased"
I did a short bow as did everyone else who came with me.
"You must be the Demon King's daughter"
"Yes I am, the name's Notte Dämmerungskill pleased to meet you King Matthias Drowillow"
"I wanted to hear from your mouth but not telepathy as much as I trust it"
"Our goal is one and the same, I want us to coexist, my father wished the same thing before he died and now that dream will be fully realized I hope you accept it as well"
"I do and I am pleased to say that those on your side have agreed as well. May we work together more"
Matthias stood up, walked to Notte and shook her hand making me smile at this development. And then he looked at me with a shine in his eye.
"A dark elf huh?Well then I am curious about the abilty you have to kill a Hero and destroy an enemy country within minutes, mind if you spar with a half elf like me?"
No wonder he looked young, its literally his race well I guess I can humor him.
"I want you to come at full forc- maybe not I will come at full power and I am sure you'll come up with something"
"Actually yes, are you sure you want to do it in here?"
"No, in the courtyard at most. Will there be people?"
"Of course who wouldn't want to see their king fight an unknown dark elf whose name has been all over the royal capital"
It was agreed where we would fight and thus I didn't use my rift portal to head there, instead we walked and as usual everyone was staring at us with intense gazes I ignored them.
"Isn't that the Sage?"
"It is!"
"Is that a dragon kin?What is it doing here in the kingdom"
"Look at those cute children"
"Forget those look at those Fenrirs!!"
I guess everyone is very popular hehe. By the time I noticed we had arrived at our destination all of nobility excluding a few had come here. The king was handed a rapier which made me smile a bit as I knew exactly what to do now.
"I'll fight you using a weapon I have never used before, I have little to no knowledge on how to use it. That is my handicap, how about it?"
"Sounds good"
I transformed my bow and arrows into a weapon that Chloe uses: A single handgun but what came out was unexpected, it was a futuristic revolver and it had a note on top of that too.
『Hello my beautiful alternate self!! It seems you have met Sophia-chan as well, she seems pretty keen on both of us meeting. She's been working hard to get to me as well since I am kind of drifting worlds and dimensions right now. I am excited to meeting another me! I might look a tad different but that doesn't change the fact the base personality is the same. Here's the first gun I used when I got reincarnated, its a bit OP but you will manage to control its power. I'll see you soon. Yours Truly. 吉隙Lucky Discord 』
"Oh dear…."
"Is something wrong Yukiyo-san?"
"No, let's continue"
There's another version of me out there who is just as strong and currently wants to meet me, plus her name is also Yukiyo, wait is that Yukio I am not sure. I will ask Sophia later. I took the gun into my right hand and looked at the king, the gates were suddenly opened to show the people this fight as well. Oh dear a crowd is forming let's end it quickly.
"You have to defeat me within 90 seconds, if you can do that then you are certainly are worthy of that title of yours"
"You can see my titles despite me hiding them?"
"Yes, I have God's Eye after all"
"Well then I guess I have to be serious"
"That's the spirit, a defeat is if one of our weapons breaks, we lose spirit to fight or get knocked out"
"Sounds great"
"The timer begins now"
There was a visible 90 second timer right above us, is this a fighting game or something. I bet Nyarlathotep and Hastur are enjoying their time right now, Sev smiles and claps her hands as she stares at us both.
"Beginning in 3….2….1….Now Fight"
Matthias leapt forward to cut me in half but I dodged it as soon as he started his assault, he is met with a kick to the face. Drifting backwards only stopping after stabbing his sword into the ground, staring at me with excitement in his eyes as he thrusts forward.
『85 seconds』
I started getting knowledge about this weapon even though I never wielded it before, I pulled down the safety clip and shot at Matt-kun who wanted a piece of me. He blocks the attack and sends a downward swipe on me but he doesn't expect another bullet to shoot towards his sword striking it into the ground with me punching his face as a result.
『80 seconds』
Matt-kun is sent flying before regaining his posture in midair and hurries to take the opportunity of me being open. I can't really dodge his attack, wait I can, I use a Dark Matter eye to make a replica of myself for some reason it makes a strange pose. Matt-kun slashes a thousand times but then it disappears as I reload the gun once more and start walking towards him whilst shooting at him.
『75 seconds』
He slashes all the bullets down instantly as if he were a pro at this but I have already approached close enough to send another kick or punch to him. Before I could kick his stomach he had stopped my leg was about to stab it, too bad for him I teleported behind him with a smirk on my face as I shot his back consecutively before he gets sent flying I grab his collar throw him to the ground. Backing off a bit before I do anything.
『61 seconds』
He coughs and suddenly laughs as his eyes shine a violet color, he gets up and points his sword at me.
"You are indeed interesting, you are using a weapon that you have no experience of using and yet here you are pushing me back this far"
『You have acquired the following skills: Marksmanship, Sharp Shooter, Quick Draw, Slow Motion Shooting, Rapid Gunfire, Rapid Reload (all gun related skills have leveled up to Level 10) (Now fusing Marksmanship, Sharp Shooter, Quick Draw and Slow Motion Shooting to form unique skill: Lucky Discord's Gun Theatre)』
Lucky Discord you bastard, Matt-kun ran towards me at a quick pace to me its rather slow but to humans and such (why am I even saying humans in the first place despite being a human as well?). I shot at him rapidly but he either dodged or blocked it with his sword, this made me smile as I had a plan. He attacks me but another Dark Matter replica of myself is made posing strangely as if to taunt him. I shot at him with the bullets exploding this time and leapt forward in the midst of the flames kicking him up into the air. Suddenly another revolver appears in my hand with a dangerous emotion filling my heart as I combine Rift Portal with Lucky Discord's Gun Theatre, the result was exhilaratingly interesting as guns from my world shot at the king a bunch of times before he is sent even higher, I leap up into the air and ended up doing a one shot his sword which had deflected the damage to itself for some reason. It breaks obviously, how much time was left.
『10 seconds』
Matt-kun gets up and smiles with a satisfied face, I put away Lucky Discord's gun Void Breaker into my inventory and start clapping.
"You did well to try to injure me Your Majesty."
"You compliment me, I never came close to even making a single mark on you"
"Wrong, look at this"
He actually managed to slip a slash that went to my left cheek, of course that was healing up fast too.
"I am forced to recognize your unreasonable strength and I wish to get such strength one day"
"You will, if you live long enough"
"Hahaha"
"I will be heading over to the beast kin's nation after this, that's what you want right?"
"Yes, it is. Say Yukiyo what do you plan on doing in this world anyway?"
"I don't know enjoy myself and eventually leave"
"….ah…"
"Every good hearted person would be strong by then and I will make sure I leave it with a smile"
"You are too precious even for our world"
"I get that a lot"
Yukiyo had big plans for the future and they were not stopping in this world alone.
