Meanwhile, while Rei is in another dimension, in the Skyrealm specifically in Estalucia which is inhabited by a race called Astral.
Astral are a very dangerous race that once ruled creation for over a thousand years in the Skyrealm before being driven out by the inhabitants of Skyrealm along with many rebellious Astrals that betray their own races.
After being cornered by the Skyrealm inhabitants and rebellious Astrals thousands of years ago they decided to return to their homeland Estalucia.
But all of that is in the past, and now it's just a story that parents usually tell their children.
In a room inside a large and very grand house in Estalucia, a woman with long blonde hair and blue eyes is seen playing while tossing a doll looking very bored.
"Heyyy Lyria, I'm bored," the woman says to another girl who is reading a book.
"Djeeta, you say that every 10 minutes... If you're bored, how about we go back to the Skyrealm and meet the others?" the girl named Lyria says to Djeeta.
Lyria has very long blue hair that reaches the floor and blue eyes just like Djeeta, but her eyes are brighter compared to Djeeta's.
[Djeeta and Lyria]
"But we just saw them a few days ago, and there's nothing interesting in the Skyrealm..." Djeeta says while playing with her hair.
"If that's the case, I don't have any other suggestions to keep you from being bored, Djeeta," Lyria says while shaking her head before returning to her book.
Djeeta remains sprawled on the bed, staring at the ceiling and thinking about what she can do to alleviate her boredom.
Djeeta has never liked staying still and loves to adventure as the captain of her crew. But ever since she and her crew arrived in this place, they no longer have any purpose so they parted ways a few years ago.
Despite their separation Djeeta, Lyria, and Vyrn still visit the others easily by using their powers.
"Ahhh, it's all Rei's fault! Why did he leave me and go to another dimension?" Djeeta shouts while punching her bed.
"Djeeta... That's your own fault for being so hard to wake up," Lyria replies.
Djeeta falls silent after hearing Lyria's words. She knows it is true when Rei wanted to go to another dimension, he had invited both Djeeta and Lyria, but unfortunately, Djeeta was still asleep.
Lyria had decided to stay with Djeeta because she was sure that if Djeeta woke up and found neither Lyria nor Rei, she definitely would throw a fit.
"But he could have waited for me to wake up..." Djeeta mutters, then falls silent for a while.
Seeing that Djeeta is quiet, Lyria focuses on her book again and reads peacefully.
The silence lasts for a while until Djeeta finally breaks it. "Hey Lyria, what if we go after them?"
"Huh?"
<~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~>
"Do you all want to come with me?" I asked Vali and the others, who were looking at me like they were eager to see my abilities.
"Yes, if you don't mind. I'm also curious about your abilities," Kuroka who was right in front of me said.
Hmm, I don't mind letting them come along, but unfortunately, I have a date with Sturm and also need to accompany Kunou around the city, so I don't have time for it.
"Unfortunately, I don't have time right now. Maybe some other time when we duel again Vali. After this I still need to find Cao Cao and continue my date."
Vali nodded understandingly when he heard this. "Alright then another time, as long as you don't forget about our duel."
I could see Kuroka looking disappointed, but oh well. I then walked back to the portal to leave this place.
As soon as I entered, the portal vanished, and time resumed its flow.
After that, I reappeared in the dimension gap because this place is quite spacious and there would be no disturbance when I want to do something.
"Now what's the plan..." I murmured, trying to think of a way to find Cao Cao.
But as I was still thinking, suddenly a very large magic circle began to appear in front of me, and shortly after a huge red dragon started emerging from within it.
"Huh, Grisella?"
Grisella appeared to be looking at me while floating using her dragon body. When she had fully emerged from the magic circle, her body began to be enveloped in a red light and she seemed to shrink.
Until she is the same height as me, and now Grisella is using her human form. "Hello Rei, nice to see you again. So, what do you want to do here?" She said with a smile.
I then returned her smile and answered, "Yes, I'm thinking about something and this place is suitable for it."
I then telling Grisella about what happened after she returned to the dimension gap and what I intended to do.
"you doesn't have ability to locate someone?" Grisella asked me.
"Hmm, I have a few Primal Beasts that have such abilities but...!?" Mid-sentence I suddenly sensed an incredibly strong power emerging.
I turned around and immediately shielding Grisella and using my 12 wings each with various colors like when I trained with Sturm.
"What's happening!?" Grisella is confused as suddenly her body is enveloped by one of my wings.
I didn't answer Grisella and just focused on what was ahead. I didn't expect someone with such immense power in this dimension.
Soon, we both could see cracks appearing rapidly in front of us until finally breaking apart, and a turquoise ray of light emerged from inside heading towards us.
I could even feel that if this Ray of Light hit Grisella she would be dead and instantly vanish due to its immense strength. Quickly I raised my right hand towards it while using the Wings of the Word and summon Andromeda.
Andromeda is one of my shields that can absorb any attack and store its energy for the user's use or throw it back towards the attacker.
[Andromeda]
After Andromeda appeared the Ray of Light struck us directly and Andromeda began to shine with a golden light attempting to absorb the attack.
I'm kinda glad that I'm using Wings of the Word otherwise I'm sure this shield wouldn't be strong enough to absorb all this power, because Wings of the Word has the ability to cut through the strength of attacks that hit me.
Before long the ray of light began to dim and eventually disappeared preventing this shield from overloading and breaking apart...
Now everything returned to silence again with Grisella and me staring seriously towards the portal. "Hmm, this feels familiar..." I murmured because I recognize the power I felt.
"Hey Djeeta, isn't it better if we just wait for Rei to come back?" I heard a very familiar voice coming from inside the portal.
"It's okay, Lyria. Besides, I've already forcibly broken the dimension's barrier, so we have no choice but to go to Rei and Sturm."
"Djeeta? Lyria?" I called out to them.
They both immediately went silent when they heard my voice... Then suddenly, I felt someone hugging me very quickly. "Rei!"
I could see the person hugging me had long turquoise hair which could only be Djeeta. "Djeeta!? What are you doing here?"
Then I heard the sound of someone running out from the portal, and shortly after, a girl with really long blue hair appeared.
Like Djeeta, Lyria immediately hugged me tightly. "Rei, it's been so long since I last hugged you like this!!"
"Lyria, I've only been gone for a few hours..." I told her.
"And that was long enough!" Lyria answered me firmly.
Because Lyria and I have a special connection with each other, we are always together and rarely apart so I understood why Lyria is acting this way even though I'd only been gone for a few hours.
She didn't expect me to be gone for that long, so at first she agreed to wait a bit until Djeeta woke up. But who would have thought I would be gone for a few weeks for me and several hours for her.
After they are satisfied with hugging me, now both of them are in front of me. I can see that Djeeta is wearing her Eternal outfit, and Lyria is in her usual clothes.
[Eternal]
Djeeta's hair shining in turquoise signifies that she is using her Omnipotent power, and with that power, she forcibly breaks through the dimension barrier between the DxD world and the Sky Realm.
[Omnipotent Power]
Fortunately Djeeta appears here and not anywhere else in this world. Otherwise I don't even know what would happen...
"Why didn't you wait for me to wake up Rei?" Djeeta says to me while pouting.
"Forgive me, Djeeta. I didn't expect to be in this world for so long," I say to her while sighing.
Then I explain to both of them what happened with me and Sturm and why we are both trapped here.
"Hmm, I see," Lyria says, nodding.
"Wait a minute! Did you say this world has supernatural beings? Like Devils, Angels, and vampires?" Djeeta asks me with her eyes sparkling.
Lyria and I can only look at Djeeta with blank stares because we both know what Djeeta wants to do after hearing all that. "Yes Djeeta, you're right..."
Djeeta immediately smiles enthusiastically. "Then this is a great idea! Let's explore this world," Djeeta says excitedly.
"Alright, calm down for a bit, Djeeta... I have to tell you that most of the creatures in this world are very weak, unlike in Sky Realm. You have to be careful not to accidentally overkill them when you fight them," I say to her and then explain to both of them what kind of creatures in this world and how annoying they're especially the Devil race.
"But I really want to see the creatures of this world, and what about Gabriel and the other Archangels! I want to see how they are in this world," Djeeta says not giving up.
Since Djeeta is already like this, I am sure we won't be able to stop her, so I decide to allow it but only if Lyria and I are with her and she doesn't go alone.
After Djeeta agrees, I retract my wings, and Grisella is freed from the wings that surrounding her. "Are we done?"
They both turn to look behind me and see Grisella staring at them. "Rei, who is that?" Lyria asks while pointing at Grisella.
