Chapter 77. Meeting with the Hunter II & Madness of Human
(Kai POV)
Its already an hour after we visit Jin-sensei. The old man still unconscious despite his condition getting better
It wasn't surprise actually, if you try to make analog on his situation you can compare his condition now is same like someone who using Juggernaut Drive
They use too much power and it turned to drain their life force instead energy. That was very dangerous thing if you must know
Ernesta, Kasumi and healer from Forest of Spirit including Illias herself had worked to restore the power and energy Jin used in battle
They can't restore it 100% of course, such thing is impossible save for me. Kaguya said if I master my power to the fullest I'm not just going able to heal him, but even give him new body, a younger and stronger one
Though now I still having hard time due to Madara still not response to my question. He only offer some opinion but that's it, he never willing to help or want to talk
Currently we know is in one of hall in Illias Castle. I see Kuroka and Koneko chat with Shion. I can tell Kuroka and Shion seems getting along very well. I'm not surprise somehow since Shion quite... Pervert, so she will go along with Kuroka
Alice talk with Rose and Le Fay, talking about magic and else. Rias, Sona, Akeno and Nii-san talk with Jeanne, probably about her when she in Hero Faction. I worry they will give the woman quite lecture so I order Kasumi to stay with her
"Kai-san..."
"Yes Asia?"
"Ano.."
Asia have strange expression while tugging my shirt. Her eyes tilted to some direction and I follow it. Then I put deadpan look at the sight I see
Not far from us, there Jane. She apparently hide behind one wall while staring at me, she give sharp look to Asia who on my side as if she is beast who protect her mate
I already knew since beginning she was in there but for the sake of my sanity I decide to ignore her, she been stalking me ever since I arrive few days ago and always glaring to all woman who on my side save for Illias
"Ignore her, she already like that ever since I'm in here." I told the girl and Asia turned back to Jane before she hug my arm and get closer to me
If Jane glare was like beast who protect her mate now it turned to Dragon who guard her precious treasure, I can even see there flame behind her eyes
I give slight wave to Jane who turned away when I did this, acting like never stalking me. I only smile before pat Asia head while rubbing it and she make cute expression
I must say, I really love this girl. Even I know it was Ophis who setting the whole my... ... Harem.. Urk, thinking about it still make me feel strange. I mean come on! A harem? For me? A man who live in monogamy place? Now I turn into... Ugh...
How much I had change?
Harem... Thing like this... I never thought I will have one...
"Kai..."
I turned and see Arthur, Vali and Bikou approaching me
"What's up?" I asked
"We just want to know about Malum Mundi..." Vali answered and I put thoughtful face for moment
"Well, I already write everything on the report. Surely Azazel already give it to you all?"
"Yes he did, however we want to hear it directly." Vali replied
"I see... Nothing to say... If there one person that interesting, it was Antaeus I guess. He quite like Grendel but he seems more sane..."
"Antaeus... Is he strong?" Vali asked and I noted there eagerness on his tone
"He can give Fenrir in full power challenge... Probably able to fight toe on toe with Aži Dahāka." I explained and its true, in last battle, I only able to push them back because I caught them in surprise mostly. If they focused and work together, I will lose "How Pendragon Family in Britain response King Arthur?" I asked to Arthur
"Le Fay who know the details." Arthur said "While true I also not too care about my family but my ancestor is something else."
I let out sigh, of course he will said that. Arthur sharing same name like the real King Arthur after all and he also proud of himself
"I will give same answer like I give to Mordred. Trust me Arthur killing him now will be considered as mercy rather than honor." I replied with slight stern tone
Arthur only silence while staring at me, his face is stoic and unreadable but I can tell he clearly not amused and there hidden anger behind his calm face
I then notice Asia seems uncomfortable at our conversation. I clear my throat a bit "Vali, we can talk later? I have little business now." I said as I pull Asia closer to me
"K-Kai-san!" Asia squeaked at my sudden act but I merely flash her small smile
Vali rolled his eyes while Bikou only snickered and Arthur merely stare with impassive look, but they seems accept my words as they turn to leave
"Well now they gone, why don't we take a look around?" I asked with grin
"O-Only u-us? B-But!"
"Sstt, we don't want everyone bother us right? Beside we rarely spend time. I mostly spend time in Sona office when I visit Kuou since we busy with our school."
Asia stare at me with wide eyes before her expression turn to dreamy
"Alone with Kai-san in private place..."
Before I can say anything suddenly a large steam pop out from top her head like volcano and her face went full red then she fainted on my arm
"O-Oi! Asia!"
I immediately held her and sweatdropped, now everyone turned to us and my sweatdrop only got bigger. Great, so much private time I want to spend with her *sigh*
"Kai? What's wrong with Asia?" Xenovia immediately asked me and I put stoic face
"Nothing, she just appear to have... Wrong imagination." I stated and she blinked
"Wrong imagination?" Kasumi asked
"I will tell you when you older."
"But I'm technically 87 years old, I'm older than you Master. Why you can know while I-"
"Kasumi, this is order."
"Hai..."
I let out sigh as I rub my temple and carry Asia on my back. Really, all I want is to-
"Oi! Leader-sama!"
We all then turned to familiar face for us save for group from Kuoh Academy perhaps. The person is Mordred, she only wearing her tube top and short blue jeans. She actually look quite petite and not dangerous woman but that image shattered by Clarent that she carry now. Clarent after all quite big actually, not as big as Durandal but it bigger than my Excalibur Proto
"Mordred..." I greeted with grunt as she approach me with grin. I then see all who not meet Mordred assembled so I introduce her "Everyone, meet Mordred Pendragon. Arthur nephew.." I said with slight grin and everyone turned to Arthur with surprise look
Said the blonde knight throw glare to me while adjusting his glasses "Cousin... We more like cousin.." He stated with annoyance
"Awww, Oji-san you hurt me with that behavior. What's. wrong? Don't you accept me as your family?" Mordred said with grin and the other blonde throw her glare but she only laughed "Well, so this is Leader-sama family eh? Mordred Pendragon at your service, nice to meet ya!" She declared while puffing her chest in proud manner
Everyone then began to introduce themselves to Mordred. She stare at each of them with interest, especially Xenovia and Kiba when they mention they are Knights
However her gaze then moved to Rias. She stare at her before step forward and
BOING! BOING!
"K-Kyaaa!"
"Wow, its real..." Mordred stated as she grope Rias breast like it some balloon "I heard there will be laser come out if I grope it like this, let see the movie did it like this."
"M-M-Mordred-s-san! S-Stop it! N-Nyaaah!"
I'm not surprise when everyone now show gawked look at the Mordred who began to touching Rias boobs like it some kind of balls. Nii-san meanwhile clearly the most amusing one as his eyes practically bulged out and there slight blood trickle down from his nose
"K-Kai! D-Do s-some-nyaah!"
"Come on! Get out you crimson beam! Oppai Beam!"
To be honest I won't lying, I do enjoy the scene Rias get groped like this. What? I'm a male, despite I always act stoic but I also love woman body!
"N-Nnyaah! M-Mordred-san! This is!"
"Ueeh? It still not come out? Hmm maybe if I tweak it a little like this."
"Aaaah! W-Wait! D-Dontaaahh!"
Most of Kuoh Academy group now blushing while looking at the activity in front of us. I could tell Asia on my side began to sputter with red face, Outlaws meanwhile only put amusement look save for Le Fay. What? We not bunch of hormonal teenager ya know! So of course we fine!
I then feel someone hit me in the ribs with elbow and I grunted before turned to see Sona glare with slight blush
"What?" I asked
"You enjoying this aren't you?" Sona hissed and Asia on my side put horrified look
"Of course I am. I healthy teenager, while I see Rias as my sister figure but I won't deny she was attractive." I responded simply "Especially her moan." I added which make Sona glare deepened before I yelped when feel pain on my other side, I turned to see Asia now somehow reawaken and have teary eyes while pinching my stomach
"K-Kai-san! Y-You can't think of another person! Especially Rias-onee!" Asia pouted with shining eyes due to tears
"Now, now Asia. Its not like I-"
"I don't care what you reason but please remove her from Rias!" Sona glared to me while pinching my triceps and I winced
Well, apparently as amusing for me to see this -and I damn sure many think same!- there few who not. Sona is one of them
"Now! Even Asia here agree with me!"
"K-Kai-san!"
Oh geez, you two really...
"Fine. Oi Mordred! That's my brother!" I yelled as I point to Ise and Mordred paused before she turned to him
Ise-nii seems nervous when Mordred gaze turned to him and grin appear on her face before she went to him... While dragging Rias like rack of potatoes
"Oppai Dragon! Show me the crimson beam!" Mordred demanded as she push Rias to him
"E-Eh?!"
"Mordred-san! You can't treat us like-"
"Aw come on you two is idol switch princess, Oppai Dragon! Act like one! I'm one of your fan and I demand you to show me the BUST! BUST! Move! Now grope and tweak that nipples!"
It was decided that I maybe sadist seeing now I clearly enjoying the suffering Nii-san and Rias went through under Mordred sexual harassment
"Ara? Mordred-chan is lively as always isn't she?"
This time everyone -save for Rias and Ise who still harassed by Mordred- turned and see Hidemoto along with Lu Bu come this time. It seems everyone done from their own activity and want to meet Sona and Rias group
"You can count on that, she was quite curious one after all." I chuckled to Hidemoto who waving his fan and also chuckled
"Ah, hello everyone. Name Abe no Hidemoto, and yes. I'm descendant of Abe no Seimei..." Hidemoto stated cheerfully when notice the surprise look on everyone
"I'm Lu Bu, like my name I'm descendant of original Lu Bu..." Lu Bu grunted as he stare at Kuoh Academy group
They seems surprised as well but the group able to hide it and they introduce themselves back to Yūgure. And when Akeno introduce herself, Lu Bu and Hidemoto seems surprised
"One of Great Families?" Lu Bu murmured with surprised tone
"Himejima?" Hidemoto perked as he stare at Akeno "No offense but how someone from Himejima family become a Devil?"
I could see Akeno flinched at that. Yes, I already aware of the Great Families from Human World. Those families or clan actually Human who take care balance of Humanity, all of them related to their own religious and represent of the faction they belief. Himejima family, Akeno clan is represent Shinto faction
And let me tell you, those Great Families mostly harbor ill feeling to something that not related to their own faction but they also more hate Devils and Fallen Angels
I think I didn't need to said the reason why. After all, the Devil I currently know, like Rias and her generation is not Devils. True they can be mischievous and sly but they all is nothing compared to Devils in old time, the current generation is only shell of what they are in that area
True Devil is like Rizevim who not even bothered to kill his own son and torture Vali. He even laugh while experiment on Human and Vampire, turning them into his own personal puppet and puppy. Heck! He go as far want to spread Devils wicked and evil nature to another universe! Proof enough just how cruel and dangerous the real Devil is
Diodora Astaroth? Yes, he also one of True Devil but his level still not high enough to consider him as real one. There plenty of Devils that like him in old era
So I think you didn't need to know why exactly it was surprise, especially Himejima kinda prick too
"H-Hai... I from Himejima..."
"Hmm but still... To think... Oh! Yes! I see, I see..." Hidemoto hummed and make understanding face as if he just remember something. I about to reprimand him about Akeno but he continue "My apologize Akeno-san, I didn't mean to bring bad memory to you. On my defense, seeing what they are and what am I that would be logical if I asked it out of reflex right?"
"I understand." Akeno nodded, her smile back to her place "But still, you must be very famous Onmyōji right? To think you join Kai-kun group is..."
"Hahaha! I don't care much about such thing. Great Families only name and tittle for me." Hidemoto laughed freely while waving his fan "True there another major panic in Himejima family I heard when I leave rogue but I think it will be fine, Tobio also not care slightly about his act to the clan anyway."
"Tobio?" Akeno asked
"You don't know?" Hidemoto blinked and he show surprise face "Well, I guess it just logical seeing the distance quite far. Anyway, let talk about another thing!" Hidemoto smirked and he snap close his fan. I know well that damn smirk mean "Could you show me your underw-"
SMACK!
"GUGH!"
Before Hidemoto could finish his request I already create flat edged sword and smack his face with it while putting deadpan look.
"Leader-sama!" Hidemoto shouted to me while holding his nose, he give me look as if I just doing something blasphemy "Why you hit me?"
"I don't need you to harras one of my surrogate big sister Hidemoto." I stated flatly
"No way! Don't you see the posture of her body Leader-sama?! She could-"
THWACK! THWACK! THWACK!
Whatever he said being cut by another swords I created and bash his head with it. Unlike dealing with Ise, somehow I don't have patient with Hidemoto
After few hits and to make sure he won't wake up soon, I turned to everyone who gawked at me while Lu Bu only sighed and muttering about 'Should know this will happen' or 'About damn time'
"You really gather lively people." Sona deadpanned as she stare at Hidemoto who now unconscious and Mordred that still harrassing Rias and Ise-nii
"What could I say? I live in dark, having entertainment is rare ya know." I chuckled in mirth while staring at Mordred who just like having christmas as she enjoying her time with Rias and Ise
This is good for them... This almost like small vacation, this group rare to have go out like this. After few mission we done I guess it just reasonable if we have small relaxation
"Kai-sama."
I turned around when someone call me, it was Ernesta
"Yes Ernesta?" I asked
"Masashi-sama have awake. His condition also already close to normal again, we can visit him." Ernesta reported
"Really? Well then its good." I nodded before turned to D×D group "Oy! Nii-san! Jin-sensei already awake! We can visit him now!" I yelled to them and he turned to me
"Really?!" Ise beamed "Okay! What we waiting for!"
He then began to pull Rias and try to stay away from Mordred who now pouted. It was clear they feel uncomfortable with them and it really amuse me
"How about you Hidemoto? Want to visit?" I asked to the Onmyōji who now already conscious again
"Your group can visit first. We will come afterward..." Hidemoto said and I nodded before turned to Asia and hold her palm then began to pull her with me
"Ernesta, lead the way."
"Of course Kai-sama. Everyone please follow me..."
As we began to walk to the castle back, I turned to everyone and smiled
"So... What your opinion about my group?" I asked
"They clearly lively people." Sona said immediately with flat look and my lips twitched upward slightly
"Well, Kasumi-chan seems polite and cute girl. She is good person I guess." Akeno commented
"T-That big guy kinda scary..." Gasper whispered in meek tone and I can't blame him, Lu Bu indeed intimidating. With his armor and appearance like that, it like watching general or Warlord come for you
"I... Didn't have chance to talk with Mordred-san openly since she busy with Buchou and Ise-kun. However I must say Mordred-san seems quite..." Kiba paused and his face scrunched to troubled
"Idiot.." I offered and everyone snickered save for Kiba and Asia
"Kai-san! That was rude!" Asia reprimanded me immediately and Kiba put strained smile
"I won't put it in harsh way like that but... Maybe she quite dense..." Kiba said politely and I snorted
Try to speak like that after you find out she give her name and tittle openly while playing WoW. Because of that we chased by hundreds pursuers!
"That girl is pervert." Ise-nii said solemnly and we all deadpanned
"That come from you? How ironic, I think she just childish. If she pervert then what are you?" I asked flatly
"Super PERVERT!" Ise immediately shouted while making triumph pose
I give up...
"Anyway, Mordred maybe looks like power idiot just like Xenovia here." I stated and ignore protest of indignant from Xenovia and pain from Asia who pinch my stomach again "However I assure you, when the time of battle come she will be different person. Her skills, power and technique are balance when she fight." I told them and its true. Stupid Mordred maybe in daily life or routine but when it come in battle, she become different person. It like her brain have switch to change the flow of her brain liquid
"Hmm, I also didn't have chance to speak with her. Maybe I will after we done visiting Jin-san." Xenovia murmured
"I don't care about her but Kai, next time PLEASE refrain her!" Rias stated while throwing glare to me and I only smirked
"If I remember or be there. Can't promise thing like that you know." I responded and she throw dark glare to me but I only laugh. Really that was actually fun to watch, Nii-san meanwhile also troubled but not much. Well, I even won't admit it but having Mordred try to 'rape' Rias and the way Rias moaned clearly turned me on. What? I'm healthy guy! And I was on teen age! Hormone very brutal ya know!
And my laugh promptly get louder when I hear Rias whisper about 'More rough than Ise' and 'Beast in petite body' while blushing slightly
Oh yeah! I should bring Mordred more often with me when. I visit home, clearly it will be amusing and fun to see!
"And there pervert in your group." Koneko remarked and I smirked
"Hidemoto, yeah. I don't know why, but it seems every group always going to have one pervert." I responded and Koneko nodded
"It appear so... Shame..." Koneko murmured
"But still... Descendant of Enkidu, Holder Spirit of Joan of Arc, Descendant of Lu Bu, Descendant of Abe no Seimei, Descendant of Mordred Pendragon and..." Rose paused as she glanced at Ernesta who walking in front of us and only silence ever since the beginning "Daughter of Kokabiel..."
"Indeed, this all are magnificent people Kai." Sona said as she glance at me "But well, seeing your job I guess it was to be expected. You can't hunt people in dark with half-baked people."
I only let out chuckle at her comment. What she said is true, I can't hunt what I hunt with normal people. I must make special one since my job very hard
Ah well, I could think about job later. For now is time to relax, even if it only for moment
I tightened my grip on Asia hand and she give me confused look, I in response only smiled to her
Yeah... It really good day...
Hidemoto who watching D×D group leave only put smiley face while waving his fan. He never see Kai smile this often in one day, it was clear his leader very happy spending times with his old group
"You not visit too?" He asked to Vali and Outlaws who approaching them
"We only come to talk with Kai. As much it was interesting to speak with Legend in this era but we not come to here for that." Vali responded with shrug and Hidemoto nodded in understanding, Vali group not even acquaintance with Hidemoto so it just logical if they not come to visit the veteran warrior "So what your opinion about them?"
"Weakling..." Lu Bu said bluntly immediately "No offense, but I think the only one who could give us good one on one fight is Sekiryuutei... And that Kiba guy along with the Valkyrie." He commented
"I won't be that sure. Kuroka little sister learning under Kai ya know, she maybe could be challenge." Bikou commented as he had heard about it from Kai and Kuroka
"Right, Nya! Don't underestimated Shirone!" Kuroka also defended her sister
"Hn!" Lu Bu grunted and stare at Kuroka who glaring at him "Perhaps... I spoke too soon." He added in slight reluctant tone, to be honest he not intimidated by the Nekoshu but if the little girl did learn from Kai then maybe there something special about her
"What Kuroka-chan and Bikou said is true." Hidemoto said as he snap open his fan and waving it to cool himself "You always like that Lu Bu, dismissing people with easy." He chuckled and the big man only grunted in response
"That pretty boy and tomboy girl. They wielder of Gram and Durandal right?" Mordred asked while rub her chin "Well, they seems interesting fellow. I had seen their fight in Rating Game last time, their skills still dull but it still can be polished." She remarked as she did could sense the aura of fellow knight in them and had see their fights before
"Mordred-chan right, don't underestimated them. Their skills maybe rather dull but their raw status could cover it. And imagine how strong they will be if they train their skills." Jeanne also added
"Speak from experience eh Jeanne-chan?" Hidemoto commented and the girl blushed slightly before frowned, not liking to be reminded about her past "Sorry, sorry. Didn't mean to offense of course.." He chuckled "How about you Kasumi-chan? Someone interest you?"
Kasumi only hummed as she put thoughtful face "Interest? No, I didn't have any between them."
"I mean, someone alerted your radar?"
"Ah, so that what you mean. Yes Hidemoto-sama, I found among the group there someone else who possess unique power other than Hyoudou Issei-sama." Kasumi said and the group give curious look "Gasper Vladi, I sense some power inside him. Something that quite... Potent... It almost like Deity but at same time it not..." She explained to them
"Hoo... Really?" Hidemoto asked "Now I also interested...". He murmured. Outlaws only silence, Kai never told Kuoh Academy group ability to the specific point to them. It because he also give respect privacy to his friends
However they knew if situation demand it, Kai won't hesitate to give information about Yūgure to Kuoh Academy group. No matter how he respect Yūgure privacy but he more prefer his real families rather than his group, it was obvious choice
"And what about Ise?" Bikou asked
"He fun!" Mordred chirped immediately with grin "I mean, having leecherous face like that and groping oppai. Fufufu, that guy interesting.." She then scowled "Though I can't see crimson beam from Rias Gremory nipples, what a shame." She sighed make everyone sweatdropped
"Please drop that antic of yours. You make me embarrassed to have you as family." Arthur deadpanned
"Oh shut up Oji-san!" Mordred yelled "I still young so I allowed to act like that!"
"You are 21, that already not age of teenager or child anymore." Arthur retorted "And don't call me Uncle! I still young!"
"Pfft! I'm 21 so what? I still young and beautiful woman! Kuroka and Bikou here who older than me more immature!"
"Oi! What you said shrimp?!"
"Mordred-chan you chibi meany!"
Bikou and Kuroka immediately responded with indignant protest prompting Mordred snorted
"See what I mean?" She pointed make Arthur rolled his eyes and the duo Youkai let out another protest that ignored
"At least I'm not idiot among idiots." Bikou stated and Kuroka nodded as if she just receive wisdom from sage
"True, true."
Mordred glare to them but the duo Youkai only shot her amused and triumph look
"Ise-sama seems nice man. Though his lust very high and he seems have dull mind but at least it not affect his personality." Kasumi commented with her polite smile make everyone snicker at the dull mind remark
"I think he will be challenge in fight. While true he looks idiot but at least he could be said power idiot." Lu Bu add his opinion
"The Sekiryuutei strong." Hidemoto remarked "I can feel his power, he already could be called Ultimate-class Devil or even Satan-class level in strength." He stated as he stare at Ise who leaving
"Indeed, Hyoudou Issei is interesting fellow. His growth rate quite advanced, not as fast as Kai but he interesting in his own way." Vali chuckled and Bikou snorted
"Please, Kai growth rate is absurd. If Ise growth is abnormal then what I should call Kai? That man half years ago barely able to stand against you and now he could be stronger than you!" Bikou pointed
"Bikou-sama right." Le Fay added "No matter how you see it, Kai-sama growth rate actually impossible. Issei-sama own growth rate already very absurd but Kai-sama is..."
(It shouldn't be surprise actually.) Albion voice suddenly echoed as wing appear from Vali back (Giving he host of the oldest Primordial God, that was normal...)
"Normal? Albion-san no offense but what kind of Human that could turn into top 10 strongest being just in 6 months?" Hidemoto asked with absurd in his tone
(Like I said it shouldn't be surprise. Think it like this...) Albion paused to make sure Yūgure and Outlaws hear him (Vali you already see how strong Ophis is when she snapped, she even make Hades like harmless puppy. That not even extend of her full power, same could be said to Great Red. Now imagine what if Ophis and Great Red have parent that still living? That the power Kai possess now, he have that power inside him.)
To said everyone shocked is understanding, the image of something surpass Ophis and Great Red is absurd! They never thought such strong existence is exist!
"That was impossible! If Kai-chan have that much power he should be transcended to another being now. Human body couldn't take that much power.." Kuroka protested with scowl and everyone agree with that
(It not absurd, I just stating fact. The power inside Kai is the oldest of Primordial Gods, the real Primordial being. Unlike Ophis, Izanami or other Elder Gods. It the most ancient one, however I agree with that. Kai body shouldn't able to handle that amount of power seeing he Human, how he did that still become question in my mind.) Albion answered as he knew well Kai condition (That boy still hiding something from us, there something he not mention.)
"Another secret?" Bikou grumbled with scowl "That guy already secretive enough, and now he have another one. Damn, I don't know what I should call him."
"Regardless what he secret but remember none of us have right to demand it from him." Vali commented and ordered the same time with stern look "We all have our own privacy, something we don't want to tell. Kai already share many secret to us so we don't have right to demand more."
Everyone nodded at that, knowing what Vali mean. Kai himself never bother to find what the secret they have or talk about their past. It mostly they who told him about it, not the other way. They can't just demand it from Kai bluntly since Kai actually never force them to tell their story. He will ask about their past but he won't demand, that what Kai always did
"But still..." Kasumi started "I actually expect something more from Ise-sama..." She stated and Mordred cast glance to her
"I agree with Kasumi here. The way I see it, comparing Ise to Leader-sama almost same like comparing puppy to an alpha wolf. In any aspect it was clear Leader-sama more special than his brother..." Mordred agreed as she nodded, she can't see what so special with Ise
"Well if you put it that way..." Hidemoto muttered while rubbing his chin and seems agree
"Why you after Ise anyway Kuroka? Wouldn't it better if you after Kai? I mean Primordial God clearly way better than Dragon. Even if Ise now originally mini Great Red but having power from it parent is better." Mordred asked to Kuroka
Kuroka stare at Mordred with rare calm face, her lips then twitched to upward and she giggled "Technically you right, however there something you all not see from Ise-chin nya!"
"Huh?" Kasumi tilted her head "What you mean by that Kuroka-sama?"
"Hmm... How do I put it eh..." Kuroka tapped her chin with her finger and her face scrunched to thoughtful
"Ise-kun is better man than Kai-kun..." Jeanne speak for the first time and everyone turned to her "What you and Mordred-chan said is not wrong Kasumi-chan. But no matter what Kai-kun become he will never become better man than Ise-kun..."
"I... Don't understand..." Kasumi said with slight pause as her smile now replaced by thoughtful face
"Same here..." Mordred added with nod
"It was simple... You analog about Ise-kun being puppy and Kai-kun as alpha wolf is could be said correct. Then why Ise-kun better than Kai-kun? Let me ask you, what puppy have but alpha wolf didn't have?" Jeanne responded, and the question not directed to Kasumi, Mordred or Bikuo but to everyone
"Err... Protection from parent?" Mordred offered and Jeanne shook her head with giggle
"Alpha wolf got protection from her pack." She pointed
Kasumi who hearing that slowly have scowl on her face, something that rare. Her brain try to processing what Jeanne asked and suddenly her mind flashed to her condition when she caged by Summerian Faction. How she meet Ophis and how Kai come to her life
"Freedom..." Kasumi muttered "The puppy have freedom..."
"Bingo." Jeanned agreed with smile "As you can see, like people said "Ignorance is bliss". That was true, Ise-kun is free person. He could express and do everything he wish without fear or afraid... Ise-kun is like puppy who still growing, he is light and comfort for everyone around him. His future also not set in stone, there many things Ise-kun could turn into. All in all, staying with him will be better than Kai-kun, especially seeing how bright he is already." She finished with strange look in her eyes as she stare at the bright sky and scenery of the forest
"I see..." Mordred murmured "I think I kinda understand what you mean..." She said as she stare at where Ise and everyone leave. Now Jeanne point it like that, she understand what make Ise better than Kai, true her Leader is someone that very amazing but there something that make Ise somehow more bright than him. She didn't get the point completely but at least she could understand the meaning of it
"Very good speech Jeanne-chan. Yes! What you said is entirely true!" Hidemoto chuckled as he stare at Jeanne "As expected from Leader-sama secretary, you know him very well. You paid attention to him very well aren't you?" He smirked when Jeanne began to blush, clearly enjoying the expression of the former Holy Lady
"Of course! I'm his secretary after all!" Jeanne said with proud tone and slight blush
"Nyahahaha! You know about Kai-kun very well.." Kuroka giggled as she have sly smirk on her face "But I curious, how far you know about him? For example, how big is his sword."
It was as predicted, Jeanne slight blush turned to full red as her face now resemble tomato and she began to sputtered in frantic "W-W-W-What a-are you saying Kuro-chan! I-I-It not l-like that! H-How c-could you ask that question to me!"
"Well seeing you always pay attention to him then surely you will know about it." Bikou said as he join the teasing
"W-What?! B-Bikou-kun! T-There no way I could know thing like that! What you think of me anyway?!" Jeanne shouted while blushed and everyone laughed at her embarrassing antic make her pouted
Everyone save for one person
"4,9 inch when flaccid and 5,3 inch when it erect..."
The laugh immediately ceased as they frozen in place. Slowly they turn to the source of the owner of the voice who smiled to them in polite manner
"Kuroka-sama and Bikou-sama want to know Master genital length right? It was 4,9 inch when flaccid and 5,3 inch when it erect. One level above average.." Kasumi said simply as if she talking about weather tomorrow
"W-W-W-W-W-Whaaaaaaaatttt?!" Jeanne was the first one responded as she let out loud squeak, complete with the slight jump and full blush
"Ah yes, the size could be increased actually. Master is shapeshifter, the size of his genital organ is unknown but that the original one. If he wish though, it could be increased."
"K-K-K-K-K-K-Kasumi-san!" Le Fay who hearing also squeaked with blush fully adorn her face "H-H-H-H-H-How d-did you know?!" She stuttered while demanded at same time, how could Kasumi know?! Does Kai-sama did something improper to Kasumi?! But that was absurd! Kai-sama not that type of person! However part of her mind began to whisper to her 'Though I won't mind if he did it with me, the only thing he ever did to me is french kiss while groping. And he was drunk that time.'
Needless to say, Le Fay let out another squeak as she remember when Kai drunk and how many time he close to having sex with her and Ophis. Had Le Fay older a little the hormones in her mind probably going to be more out of control and let just say it will happen
"Oh, when first day I arrive in Survivor I always guard Kai-sama secretly. When he enter the bath I follow it, though soon afterward he found me and send me out." Kasumi answered with still nonchalant tone "I don't know why he persist to be alone often, there could be assassin stalking nearby." She stated with pure, innocence thoughtful face as if children wondering why 1 + 1 = 2

"Let's... ... Let's just forget what we just heard okay?" Vali speak after long and awkward silence "For the sake of our sanity, let just forget it." He stated firmly and everyone immediately agreed, though the womans not forget the size but the mans clearly want to. Knowing other males genital organ length is something that disgusting for them
"But we just-"
"That was an order Kasumi. Remember Kai give me second in command when we together..." Vali immediately cut her sternly and Kasumi blinked but she nodded nonetheless
"Very well Vali-sama."
The great-grandson of Lucifer only grunted in response. He didn't need to know anymore about Kai genital organ, as soon he go home he will erase it by himself using magic
"Anyway!" Mordred coughed out, trying to dissipate the strange atmosphere "Jeanne, you said Ise fate not set in stone unlike Leader-sama. What you mean by that?" She asked
Before Jeanne could answer Kuroka wave her hand, make the girl close her mouth "I will explain it this time, Nya..." She stated as she stare at Mordred "It also related to why I pick Ise-chin rather than Kai-chan. What Jean-chan mean is Kai-chan path and fate already predictable, no matter how you see it the result will be only one..." Her face turned to bitter as she trailed off and Mordred face gained understanding look
What Kuroka said is clear... Someone like Kai... No matter how good his condition now... In the end... The result will be...
"The reason why I not pick Kai-chan is simple... No any sane woman will want to spend time with her, those who wish perhaps madly fall in love with him or can abandon her dream as long they stay with Kai-chan." Kuroka continued and she rise her head to see the fairies that playing in tree "Me? Despite my reputation but I also wish to be mother... To be woman who carry my own baby with loving smile and loving husband on my side..." She paused and take deep breath, her eyes filled with sadness
For Outlaws who had know Kai longer, they all knew what kind of person Kai is. Despite all his bravado to clean the dark people who can't be reached in light and all the words and wisdom he speak, he did that not in name of Three Faction or World
He did that in name of Hyoudou Issei... His brother...
To be honest the Outlaws members actually very troubled by Kai obssession to his brother. It maybe not in romance way, but the amount of respect and his dream to push his brother to be Hero is very scary
It as if Kai wish Ise to be main character or something like that
His friends and family afraid Kai will gone insane under the force of being worked in dark path, but they all slowly cease their worry when find Kai in fact is fine and act like normal. All his action is based and logical, even if it dark but there always reason why he did that
However what his friends and family didn't know, and very ironically Kai already insane. He no longer sane or normal anymore, he not defend or fight against the madness that try to consume him anymore, but instead he the one who consume the madness
Outlaws still remember when Kai feel guilty after he slaughter hundreds and innocent people during his raid on Church, how he cry and traumatized by it. He even have nightmare about it
Sad and dark it sounds, but it proved he still normal and not insane
Now?
Not anymore... He no longer have nightmare over the people he kill... Gone all of them... They never hear his scream anymore... Maybe it not gone, maybe it still there but if it did, they damn sure Kai chose to ignore it and didn't even care about it anymore
Kai will kill one innocent and pure being to save thousands with heavy heart, he even maybe going to shed tears. But Kai will kill that pure and innocent being with cold blood just to save his family and friends in Kuoh. Heck! They even sure Kai would rather see one large faction disposed, erased, discarded like trash rather than see one of his friends died
That was what make them very afraid to Kai. It even disturb Albion since he never see Human like Kai. A Devil? Perhaps there one or two but a Human?
No... Kai was the first one who like this... And it make Albion inwardly afraid just what will happen to this World had Kai lose one of his precious people
Like it or not, Kai already no longer sane. No one know how Kai become that twisted but maybe he already broken in first time. Azazel and everyone maybe bought Kai lie easily about his eyes show nothing but in Outlaws mind, they all knew that eyes at least connected to reason why Kai turned to broken ever since he was child
No matter how human-like and kindness he show to his friends and people around him, Vali and his group know just what kind of monster beneath it. They maybe laugh with him, play with him, chat with him, stand with him in battlefield
But no matter what they did, they will never forget what kind of monster beneath Kai Human body
Kuroka stare back at Yūgure group, her smile is bitter and her eyels half open
"And when I become one, I don't want my children see their father as monster... Or have one for them..."
Fire... Fire everywhere... Fire burn everything around it... Eating the area like it everything soiled by oil
The majestic buildings and city that surround them all. The glory and tall buildings, the strong steel, cement and iron that stood firmly. Crumble under the heat of blazing flames that burn them all
Scream of anguish of pain could be listened from any direction
The flame burned the houses, burned the courtyards, burned the people. No matter if they slept, or woke and tried to escape, all the people burned without exception, be it child or old one
The people who had been unable to escape turned one by one into burnt black corpses. A magnificent lotus of fire bloomed in the night sky; on the ground was staged an endless banquet of death.
Whenever you turn your face all you see is flame... Flame and people who screamed. People who cry. People who begging. People who pleaded. People who prayed
And yet... All of them did nothing except bring more pain as the flame began to lick and eat them like lion who pound down it prey
If there someone... Someone... Who watching this event they will show shocked and undoubtly loss all the calm expression they have
Not just because the flame burn down the entire city, but the fact the flame that burn the city down is purple instead red
A deep purple, near crossed to violet... But even if the color of the flame is different it not matter. Because instead weaker, the flame was clearly more potent. More hot. More strong and more deadly than ordinary flame
This is the flame of Longinus... The flame that appear from cross where Jesus Christ crucified, the holy flame that so pure and erase the darkness, the flame of Incinerate Anthum
But it purpose now not to save... It purpose now not to purify... It purpose now not to help... It purpose now not to erase the darkness
It purpose is to kill... To eat... To destroy... To torture... To burn down everything that stand on it way
'How... How could this happen?'
The wielder of the Longinus, the Incinerate Anthum, Walburga of Purple Flames, the Co-Leader of Hexennacht only can stare with horror at her surrounding
By any mean Walburga aware and even admit she not good person. In fact she are the opposite, she are evil and sadist. She could burn down or kick puppy who lick her feet with sadist smirk adorn her face
But does the death of this city bother her? No... It was not...
Then what make her stare at horror?
It was figure who currently stand above her, purple flame danced around the person. It flow and moving like it some little chick who found it mother
It was only simple meeting
She didn't know for what reason but Rizevim call her this morning. Said there someone who want to meet her, it was new allies
She didn't had anything to do and also bored. So she decided to humor Rizevim and come to meet the person. Oh don't get her wrong, she not become that Devil puppy. They just work to reach their goal together, simple as that
True she expect there will be betrayal soon or not but she know Rizevim won't betray her that fast. Not with she possess Longinus and only she could use it since Rizevim and Euclid are Devils. They can't use the Sacred Gear since it will burn them -not going to affect Rizevim though but you got the point-
So imagine her shock when Rizevim betray her. Oh yeah, she was thinking when she done with the assassin he send she going to pay him visit.
The assassin only one person. She don't know either she have to laugh at Rizevim idiocy or angry due to mockery he give
But that one person is not a person... It... It... It... It was...
A monster...
"You said you enjoy pain of people right, Walburga?" The person speak, it voice was soft and feminine yet, also stoic. It was clear this monster is woman "Look, I burn down the entire city for you. I burn down everyone and make them scream in pain just to please you!" She spoke while making gesture to chaos around her with one hand
"J...Just... What are you?" Walburga murmured, she not even hearing what the monster just said. Her eyes filled with fear and wide open as if she stare at the death itself
"How rude..." The woman scowled under hood she wear "Here I giving you gift but you ignore it. Don't you know how many time I waste just to burn down this city for you?" She asked in chiding tone
"WHAT ARE YOU?!" Walburga screamed, all the remain of calmness inside her is gone, replaced by fear to this monster
The woman stare down at Walburga, her scowl gone and replaced by stoic face
"Me? I'm just simple something that tainted." She responded with monotone
"Bullshit! What kind of tainted being that can give birth to thing like you?!"
The woman only silence again, she not show any expression or sign of annoyed. Slowly, low giggle echoed from her mouth and it turned to full blown laugh
Her voice was soft, beauty and gentle. But when she laugh, it turned to laugh or cackle of something, something that give chill to most people. Because the laugh contain nothing but pure madness
"What kind of being give birth to thing like me? Well... I guess you could say something that more mad than me. She giggled insanely as she stare down at Walburga. She rise one hand and suddenly spear appear above Walburga who now have fear in her eyes seeing the spear "My name Silvera, tell Satan that she send you." She said and she brought down her hand
SQUELCH!
With sickening sounds, the spear pierce through Walburga face. The face of the woman now gone and replaced by hole that created by the spear
Silvera stare at the corpse with stoic face. She wave her hand and the spear dissipated into particles of light, then she snap her fingers and a ball of purple flame appear on her palm
"Good bye Walburga..." She said before toss the flame and it engulf the woman body, burned it down
Few seconds later nothing remain of Walburga
Silvera only silence as she stare at where Walburga before. Slowly she lift up her hood and reveal her blond hair. She was beautiful... One could said that if they see her face...
She stare at the sky... Her face is blank, there no sign of emotion on her beautiful face. There were the human figures around him, burnt black and quite shrunken. The wall of flame that had surround her so high now sunk, and the buildings mostly crumbled down, burned already.
Then she move her hand, it slipped beneath her hood and she pull out a book. No, not just book but thick book. And it was Bible
"Luke 23:43 - And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise." She read it alound while rise her other hand as if she reading sacred message to the flame and dead around her. She paused and stare at the sky, the sky that filled with dark smoke from the flame. She take deep breath before close her eyes
She could hear people call her for help
She could hear people begging for her
She could hear people comforting each other
She could hear people plea and wail
She could hear people scream and anguish
Slowly, she open her eyes again, one was white like pearl while the other emerald green and she smiled
"Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from god, prepared as a bride adorned her husband. And I heard loud voice from the throne saying!" She began to make gesture around them, spreading her arm with joyful expression "Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away." Her grin dimmed and turned to soft smile before she place both her arms on her chest with the Bible "Revelation 21: verse one to four... Amen..." She muttered softly as the purple flame around her keep blazing and burn everything around her
'Soon... Soon... I will have you crawl on my feet and I shall erase your existence...'
Hello everyone! Long time no see right?! Hahaha it been a while I updating this fic! How are you all, loyal reader of CDECEK?! Hopefully you still here! x.x
So how is it? The meeting of Yūgure and Kuoh Academy group? I hope you all find it funny and satisfied with their interaction! Especially Mordred and Kasumi part, hahaha!
Not much in this chapter, this is closer of this arc and next we will began to enter battle in Sona school arc.
While I busy with other story many people ask me to have Kuroka as part of Kai harem and why despite Kai possess Sharingan Kuroka still prefer Ise
This chapter answer all of your question. I surprise no one seeing this coming actually, given I already mention Kai mentally unstable many times. What happen to Kai is a curse, yes it Curse of Hatred from Uchiha clan
Fortunately the Curse of Hatred of Kai still not bloom. Kai still have his loved one alive and well, however despite all of that Kai only normal people, normal civilian. He never trained and mentally prepared like Itachi, so when he experience one he get very deep scar. That scar combined with the stress of innocent he kill turn him to insane, and since he not capable to handle such stress due to his nature from peaceful World he embrace the insanity, thus making him into like this
Kuroka don't want to be with Kai because any normal Woman who know what Kai really is will fear him. Kuoh Academy group didn't know about it because Kai hide it from them.
"What you mean by that?! How could Rias, etc not notice it?!"
Well, ever heard someone said "the closer you are to something the more it become invisible"
That what happen to them now, they can't see what happen to Kai not just because Kai spend less time with them but they also too close with them. They mostly still naïve and maybe only few going to notice Kai insanity
What? You think I write all 25+ chapter about Kai sacrifice only for him to return to normal in few? Hell no! It won't be that easy! Like I said, Kai path is not easy one. The end for him still gray, I still not decide either he will got good or bad ending
And yes! Walburga dead! The Cannon will be changed in this arc, the mysterious woman that come will bring massive chaos. What she have under her sleeves and how it will affect our Hero?! You have to be patient for that! Hahaha! Who is she anyway?! What she wish to accomplish?! What she want to do?!
By the way, this story already one year old! Oh God! It been so long! I still remember the first time I write this story, feels just like few months ago! Hahaha anyway thanks for people who loyal and keep reading this fic! I hope you all love this fic and keep read it
And of course! There will be gift for our one year anniversary! Many people ask me to write about 'What if' scenario
Like 'what if Kai throwed to universe that similar like Cannon? How will people react when meet him and what he going to do?' or 'what if Kai captured by Khaos Brigade and experimented, then he become like Saber Alter'. There many what if scenario suggested but I only going to pick three so chose wisely
First scenario 'What if Kai throwed to Cannon Universe and he can't go back?'
Second scenario 'What if Kai throwed to another anime universe such as Familiar Zero, what he will do?'
Third scenario 'What if Kai become dark version of himself and began to fight with the whole World after consuming Ophis?'. Okay this one maybe going to pretty tough to write and it won't end only in one chapter seeing battle scene that will appear alas, I will try to write it if you all want though
Okay! I think that's all I could said! Other than sorry for not updating quite long, I want to said congratz seeing my Review almost reaching 800! Hahaha that was something ya know!
Anyway! This chapter is done and next update probably will be quite long too! But if you give enough support through review and increase numbers of favorite + follower, who know I may change my mind! XP
So please! Give Favorite, Follow, and Review to this story!
Ja Ne! XD
