Heya it's me... I've been sick since this Wednesday and still really sick now
The reason i can post this chapter because before I'm sick i already write this chapter halfway... So then it's took me 3 days to finish the other half.
Btw I'm gonna come back to this chapter again after my sickness gone and try to fix the other half but for now i just post this.
<~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~>
"Everything is finished" I said to Baka-red and Ophis, who were looking at me with wide open eyes.
After that, Ophis and Baka-red started to look around them.
"You really destroyed this entire universe... I can't sense any trace of living beings at all" Baka-red spoke.
I also began to looking around the area around us that was just white and white and white.
"Yes, it's 'The End', the ability that will erase whatever I want, and even though they are immortal or can come back to life if they die, it's still useless if they are erased from existence" I explained to Baka-red.
Ophis seemed to be crouching and trying to touch this white area and some floating particles, but Ophis's hand passed through the particles and she couldn't touch them at all.
"...The end..." Ophis murmured upon hearing the name of my technique.
"Hmm 'The End' yes, a fitting name for your technique, a technique used to end everything" Baka-red said while stroking her chin.
I then turned back to Baka-red and asked, "So what is your name? Even though I call you Baka-red, that's not your real name, right?"
Upon hearing that, Baka-red immediately turned to me and looked at me with her mischievous eyes.
"Fufufu~ Even though you want to seduce me, but you don't know my name, how could you, I feel hurt," I heard Baka-red jokingly reply.
At this point, I truly regretted asking this question, so it was better to stop asking that woman anything.
"Can you stop acting like that? I prefer it when you use your dragon form instead of this," I said.
"Baka-red is always like that when she finds someone interesting, even I was the victim before" I heard Ophis speak.
So, this is her true nature, and the delinquent nature she had before was just an act to make her look intimidating when she used her dragon form...
I never expected the strongest creature in this world to have such a nature, I hope the other strong beings are not like this.
"Oh, by the way, if you're still curious, my name is Grisella," I looked at Baka-red... no, Grisella, as she told me her name with a smile.
Grisella, huh? A good name for her.
"In that case, let me introduce myself, my name is Rei, but for some reason, I introduce myself as Lucifer to others people in this world," I introduced myself to Grisella and Ophis.
Because I just realized that I had never told Ophis my name either, as she suddenly came to my and sturm house.
"Lucifer you say? Hmm, I can feel the energy in your body is similar to Lucifer's when you use that form," Grisella replied with her eyes that looks like she's examining my body.
"So, what will you two do? Are you going back to your home or what?"
Upon hearing that, I saw them both thinking about something, but in the end, Ophis raised her small hand to hold mine.
"I want to come with you, and give me more snacks," Ophis said, looking at me with her emotionless eyes.
Oh wow, I didn't expect Ophis to get so addicted to the snacks from the sky realm, if this continues I have to make more snacks before they run out.
Then I turned to Grisella and saw that she was still thinking.
"Hmm, maybe I'll come with you as well, I'm curious about your world too, and besides, since the threat from the other world has disappeared, I don't need to be in the dimension gap all the time."
Upon hearing that, I nodded and told them both, "Then welcome to our home."
I started to open a portal to Sturm, which was currently at home.
Oh right, I forgot to ask something, "By the way, I can sense something that as strong as both of you somewhere, do you know who that is?"
Upon hearing that, Ophis and Grisella turned to each other, as if they were talking with their eyes, not sure how they did that.
"Maybe what you're feeling is Trihexa, a being sealed by the god of the Bible before," Grisella answered my question.
"Sealed? Why was it sealed?"
This time, Ophis answered me, "He was sealed because he couldn't control his instincts at all, and he always wanted to destroy anything in front of him. He also often invited the two of us to fight... and it was really annoying."
I could hear the annoyance in Ophis's voice, it seemed like Ophis really hated Trihexa...
"So do you want to kill Trihexa too?"
Hearing that from Grisella made me think... is killing Trihexa a good idea and besides, he's already sealed so they don't need to worry about him, and Trihexa isn't as strong as the creatures from this other world so Grisella and Ophis could definitely could stop him.
"Hmm, there's no need. Besides, Trihexa isn't as strong as the creatures from this other world. I'm sure you both can defeat him if you work together, or perhaps issei will defeat him," I replied, shrugging my shoulders and focusing again on creating a portal home.
But once again, I could sense something from a certain direction... but this time, I could feel a power similar to Ophis.
Hmm, feeling this made me curious about who has the same power as Ophis.
"Hey Ophis, do you often give your snakes to many people?"
Ophis nodded as she listened to my question, "Yes, they said they wanted to help me drive away Baka-red from my home, so I gave them my power."
Oh wow, so Ophis was tricked by them... why would they dare to deceive a innocent girl like Ophis?
The two strongest creatures in this world really is weird, one is easily deceived and the other loves to act as a dignified dragon.
"I feel like you're thinking something bad about us," I heard Grisella say.
"No, it's just your imagination."
Hmm, if I remember correctly, in season 2 of the anime dxd, it ended with an attack at the peace conference, right?
Hmmm... well, I'll try to check out that place, beside the Devil King said he invited me to his house.
"I want to see where this ophis-like power comes from, do you both want to come along?"
Ophis and Grisella nodded, and finally, I created a portal to go to that place.
<~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~>
And now the three of us are standing in the middle of these people who seem to want to fight each other.
Hmm, maybe we arrived at the wrong time... but oh well.
I then noticed that the female devil with glasses was the source of the power similar to Ophis that I sensed.
"Hey, look Ophis, it seems like the source of the power I sensed is coming from her."
"Hmm" Ophis replied simply.
It seems like Ophis is not interested at all huh...
Oh well, maybe I'll just greet that Devil king and then head back home.
"Grayfia-chan! What's wrong with you?" I suddenly heard someone's voice sounding panic.
Then I turned to the direction of the voice and saw a woman in a maid outfit holding her head.
It seems like her head is hurting, I didn't know devils could have headaches like humans.
...? Wait did she's just call her Grayfia? Hmm it's feels like i hear that name before... "!!!"
But before I could try to remember where I heard that name, suddenly my head started to hurt.
It felt like something was blocking my memory from coming out, and I knew this feeling.
"Hey! Silver-haired maid, stop thinking for a moment! If you don't, your head won't stop hurting," I shouted at the maid, and after a few moments, it seemed like her headache disappeared.
"Hahhh...hahhh...hahhh," the silver-haired maid looked panting, as if the pain exceeded her limit.
"What's wrong, Grayfia?" Sirzechs asked the white-haired maid.
"Hey, stop, don't ask anything yet. It will make her headache come back," I warned them before the silver-haired maid could try to explain.
Upon hearing that, they turned to me, except for the silver-haired maid who still looked down, trying not to think about anything.
"It seems you know why Grayfia is like this. Can you explain what's happening with her?" Sirzechs asked me.
But before answering, I had to make sure of something first.
And this place has been too noisy with the sounds of people fighting and using magic continuously.
"Gopherwood Ark."
After I said that, I could feel time starting to slow down and eventually stop, except for the people around me.
"This! Are you stopping time?" Azazel looked around and he could see that everything had stopped, with no one moving.
Ophis and Grisella seemed uninterested in all of this because they had been silent since we arrived.
I should have just told them to go to my house first instead of bringing them here... but oh well.
"Yes, there's something I need to check, so I had to stop them first," I informed them.
"Impossible!? You can stop time without using a sacred gear?" suddenly I heard a woman's voice from behind me.
Oh right, I forgot the woman was also nearby, so time didn't stop for her too.
Upon hearing that, I turned to her and looked at her...
But when our eyes met, I could see her eyes widen as if she was surprised to see me.
And because of that, I could easily see the emotions she felt from her eyes... and why was the emotion she felt right now is submit to me, submit, submit, submit, kneel, kneel, submit...?
Okay... that's weird, why is she feeling that... I don't even know her.
"Hey, you," I said to the woman wearing glasses and revealing clothing.
"Ye-Yes, lord," I could hear the surprise in her voice... why did she call me lord?
Hmm, oh right, Grisella said that my aura was similar to Lucifer's when I used astral power before... maybe now I'm still emitting traces of that aura that makes the devil want to submit to me.
"I want you to be quiet and not move from that spot! Do you understand!?" I warned the woman while directing my aura towards her.
The woman immediately trembled, even though her body was filled with power from Ophis, and she immediately knelt. "Yes, Lord!"
Hmm, it seems like I can use this...
After seeing the woman kneel, I then refocused on Sirzechs and the others to discuss the issue with the white-haired maid.
But when I looked back at them, I saw that they were all kneeling before me... huh?
"Why are you all kneeling too...?" I asked them.
"Eh...? Since when I'm like this??" I heard the girl with glasses and short hair say.
It seems like they did it unconsciously, huh... this astral aura is really convenient.
"Get up, all of you... besides, we must resolve the issue with the silver-haired maid."
After hearing that, those who were kneeling slowly stood up and averted their gaze from me.
"Hmm, as I suspected," I heard Sirzechs mutter.
"It's just a guess, but it seems that your aura, similar to Lucifer's that devils usually respect, this triggers their instincts as pure devils to submit to you...
and as Gabriel mentioned before, maybe what the angels feel is the aura of God that makes them kneel too..." Sirzechs tried to explain what he knew.
"Hmm, hmm, as I thought, you are Father! the aura I sensed from you is very similar to Father's," Gabriel spoke enthusiastically after standing up.
But Michael remained silent and seemed to be thinking about something.
"Unless you can control your instincts as a pure devil strongly, I'm sure any pure devil would kneel to you when you use your aura."
Hmm, that's really convenient...
But oh well, I'll think about that later, for now, I'll need to call it.
"We will continue this conversation later, let's focus on the previous issue," I spoke to them.
I released Ophis's hand who was still holding mine, and finally began to call it.
"Come to me Mithra!"
After I said that, they all could see something slowly appearing in the sky.
And before long, they could see something like a floating machine above them.
[IMAGE]
"What is that..." Azazel spoke when he saw Mithra.
They all looked confused and curious because it seemed they could sense that the creature I called was not an ordinary being.
"Mithra, find the contract involving me and someone named Grayfia."
After I said that, the gears on Mithra started to spin rapidly...
As I suspected... Mithra told me that I had a contract with Grayfia that caused me to forget about her and make her forget about me and Sky Realm.
"Destroy that contract, Mithra."
Soon after, i can fell that something that holding my memory were instantly destroyed.
"Ughh!?" And memories of when I was in the Skyrealm and found a silver-haired girl covered in wounds began to resurface.
"Aghhh, this!!" I could hear Grayfia in pain as the contract started to break.
After Mithra destroyed the contract, it immediately disappeared because breaking a contract that had been made consumed all of Mithra's energy.
So that's it... I remember now.
I then turned to Grayfia and I could see that she was also looking at me.
Suddenly, I could see tears streaming down Grayfia's face, and quickly she ran towards me and hugging me.
"Rei! We finally meet again. I'm sorry, this is all my fault... forgive me, forgive me..." Grayfia hugged me while crying.
"Eh? Grayfia-chan?" They all looked puzzled by their friend's behavior.
But what else could I do... I then returned Grayfia's embrace while patting her back.
"It's okay, Grayfia... you were just following your choices. Besides, I didn't want to force you to follow me in the Skyrealm."
The reason Grayfia apologized was because she asked me to send her back to her world.
After Grayfia strengthened herself in the Skyrealm, she thought she could return to her world, solve her problems, and then come back here.
But neither she nor I knew that someone returning from the Skyrealm had to have their memories of the Skyrealm erased because it was a rule in sky realm.
If I didn't do that, Grayfia would be erased when she wanted to return to her world, and eventually, she would die.
And back then, when I wasn't as strong as I am now, I could only follow that rule and use a contract with Mithra to erase Grayfia's memories of the Skyrealm and my memories of her.
It's all Bahamut's fault; if he could actually do his job properly, all of this wouldn't have happened...
But at least we managed to meet again...
