How To Survive In The World DxD With Fragment Memories - Chapter 110
Next Morning Masaru sent his girls to scout the Belial Family Territory, he made Roygun move her peerage and their families into the Belial Territory while ensuring work for each of them and education for the kids, because there were many houses and lands available the process went fast and smooth thanks to the team Ulrika built for Masaru, even Dominic was considering of handing over the position as the Head of the Family to Masaru but not yet. “So you had the girls protect the Belial Territory together with the other peerages?” Roygun asked while she was looking at the map Masaru gave her, currently, they were bodyguards of Sirzech but since they were sitting in a private room Roygun could look at the map while seeing the plans Masaru scribbled all over it.
“Yes, they will definitely cause a Rebellion during their attacks to attract the attention elsewhere while their true forces strike Rias and Sirzech, each Head of the Family is responsible for their own lands which is why I will only guard my own” Masaru spoke harshly but he knew it was better to first protect his own before going out to help, that way the neighbours will appreciate him more than just for benefits. Roygun nodded while feeling the man she chose was capable but knew where to draw the lines, “Ma-kun, you are my Bodyguard. You should at least act the part” Sirzech complained but the leaders were chuckling as they were used to having Masaru around them, “Yeah yeah, my lord our enemies had made their move” Masaru spoke when an alarm went off.
Rias and her team was ambushed by Diodora and the Old Satan Faction however the peerage members Diodora had was already returned back to their original master which left him no choice but to use these low-level devils to keep Rias and her team busy. Meanwhile, Masaru watches the surrounding VIP room explode into tiny rubbles revealing an Open field which was created for these occasions, in front of him stood Creserey and his hundreds of thousands of minions. “Your time has come to an end you fake Satan!” Azazel was about to step forward but Masaru stopped him causing Creserey to laugh hysterically “That’s right! Masaru is one of us! —-”
Before he could complete his line Masaru was already in front of him giving him a loud smack in the face, PAK! The force behind the smack was enough to catapult Creserey to crash land face-first into the ground. He raised his hands pointing at the Millions, shortly two shadows flashed pass him starting a Massacre. Even Sirzech was caught by surprise at how fast and efficient Masaru was moving and dealing with the problem, “What should we do with him? I bet he is still knocked out” Masaru spoke lazily, ever since he became an Evil Dragon his physical strength went several levels higher so enemies like these were simply snacks not big enough to fit between his teeth.
“We will lock him up in Cocytus, we can still gather some useful information from him” Sirzech spoke, Masaru knew this Devil King was feeling pity for a proud descendant to be smacked unconscious by a teenage was simply too humiliating enough for him. Masaru bowed before Sirzech and Azazel before vanishing swiftly, from the looks of it Walburga was already making her move. Without delays, Masaru summoned Yui to his side as he intends to have her as his back up for incase his initial plan fails when they came close to another fierce battlefield where thousands of corpses were lying Masaru spotted Walburga who spat on the ground cursing on top of her lungs “Masaru you traitor! You knew I wanted this Longinus!” Then she teleported away not daring to face him as she knew without the Longinus she can’t face him.
“Isn’t this going to be bad? Your identity has been exposed” Yui spoke hesitantly but Masaru only smiled, “It was meant to end today as planned” When she heard this she let out a sigh of relief knowing that there was nothing wrong with the plan, but they soon came across a girl who was dying but when she saw Masaru and Yui she glared for a moment but when she saw Masaru was not making a move she spoke, “W-What do you want?” She coughed out blood but her eyes were firmly looking at Masaru, “I will give you a chance at revival to get revenge” When the lady heard this she laughed, “T-there is no n-need, I h-have k-killed my e-enemies. So let me d-die in p-peace”
Masaru nodded while he conjured a magic circle beneath the dying girl, “Are you not going to let her die?” Yui asked with a panic voice, “I am, but her Longinus is something I will have you inherit” When she heard this she felt her mind was exploding from this statement, soon her body was rooted in the ground as a similar magic circle materialize beneath her feet. “Trust me okay?” Hearing this Yui nodded as she could even give her life for him if he wanted but she knew he would prefer her to live when the girl blew out her last breath Masaru immediately initiated the transfer pulling the Longinus into Yui’s body.
The process could be described as extremely painful for Yui but she bit her lips enduring the pain the Longinus was giving her, however, her feelings for Masaru helped her endure it and even more, it was only for a few minutes but her feelings for Masaru increased when she saw the worried look in his eyes but she knew he believed in her. Perhaps it was because the Longinus sensed her pure love that it slowly began to resist less and less till the process was complete, but Masaru could sense something was wrong so out of a habit he pulled out a mutated pawn piece allowing it to enter her body and the signs were finally gone.
Masaru caught the fainting Yui in his arms scanning her body to ensure everything was fine and from the looks of it, the reason he pushed another pawn piece was because of the sacred gear she now held within her. “I will spoil you when you wake up, thanks for enduring through Yui” Masaru spoke gently while ċȧrėssing her face, “Ma-kun” When Masaru heard her speak in her sleep he felt she was truly adorable, the fierce battle was closing to an end till Masaru felt a dark aura filled with nothing but intentions to destroy erupting in the location where Diodora and Rias with her team was at.
“That is Issei, I have already sent Irina with something to help the situation” Azazel spoke, he came here since he was interested in what Masaru was after, “But to think you would come here for the Longinus Incinerate Anthem huh?” Masaru chuckled, “I originally wanted to resurrect the girl but she chose to die so I made sure the Longinus gains a good master instead of that Walburga witch of Qlippoth” Azazel rubbed his chin nodding, it was indeed a good choice. With this, they got another Longinus in their hands. “Well at least this battle is soon going to be over, I can finally return to my teacher identity” Masaru chuckled.
But just as Masaru was standing up both him and Azazel froze looking at the tiny girl wearing Gothic Clothes staring at none other than Masaru, Masaru naturally knew who this girl was and he was not yet ready to face her. “Ophis, you should know the Old Satan Faction is over” The girl looked at Azazel nodded, “But I came to see him” She points at Masaru, ‘From Kuroka, she told me this girl is overly naive and easy to manipulate’ Masaru thought but he shook his head, he gazed into Ophis’s eyes firmly, there were no discussions between the two before Ophis nodded “I will come again later…” Before disappearing
“How did you do that?” Azazel spoke with a shocking look on his face, this boy made the Ouroboros Dragon leave!? Masaru only chuckled a bit, “Father-in-law Tannin once told me the best way to face a dragon of Ophis calibre is to look into her eyes without hiding anything” Azazel nodded while making a mental note for himself before teleporting him along with Masaru who was holding Yui in a princess carry away to where Sirzech was.

“Shalba has been killed by Issei” Sirzech began to give his report but Masaru felt strange, he knew the Hero Faction was a part of this campaign so Shalba dying is really too mysterious. However, he did not voice his doubts as it was, in fact, Issei who activated his Juggernaut Drive to achieve this. Masaru already gained research reports about this from Azazel since he intends to create such a mode for his own Sacred Gear, he just needs to read the report and come up with a few hypotheses first then start the experiment on himself. “As some of you are aware, Masaru was our secret Agent who infiltrated the Khaos Brigade. The mission with the Shinto Gods and Norse was his doing, however, please note that the damage reports would have been catastrophic if he did not step in to deal with it instead”
The surrounding leaders did not complain nor say anything out of the ordinary, “Next up, we have arranged for Odin to tour around Japan after he openly declares trading with the Gods of Japan in order to pull Loki out from his hiding, Masaru and Barakiel will be with him during this time, I may also have my sister and Sona join in this event since Odin intends to tour through Kuoh Town” Masaru leaned backwards on his chair since they were holding a conference in a big venue with all the decision-makers, ‘I wonder what I should do about the mission in China, so far I can only leave the Vampires alone for now till Cicily contacts me. Not to mention I have Loki to deal with.’ Masaru filled his head with things he still needed to do but every time something else pops up.

After the meeting Sirzech contacted Masaru into his office where the rest of the Devil Kings and Azazel was taking their seats, “First let me congratulate you that Jeanne, Angelica, Stephani, Sakura and Ulrika will all be promoted to Mid Rank, so I hope you can arrange for them to prepare themselves” Masaru nodded sending off a note to his mother before taking his seat, Sirzech smiled wryly “You look like your expecting it instead of a surprise” Masaru chuckled, “I am surprised but I knew my girls will never let me down, because I have more faith in them than anyone else”
Sirzech nodded but then turned serious, “Why have you not told us about Incinerate Anthem?” Masaru too became seriously while leaning back on the couch no longer feeling too carefree as this was indeed a serious topic, “Because the one who would have taken it if I did not arrive in time would be Qlippoth!” Sirzech and the rest face cramped a bit as this was an organisation they have been investigating for a while now, “The other reason is that it will be beneficial for the Alliance to gather the Longinus, we are fighting a war to have peace. We need all the strength and power we can get to keep the worlds stable”
“What proof can you give us that you will not betray?” Michael asked Masaru knew these people were questioning him on behalf of the other factions who wanted to confirm his intent before they joined. “Will you harm my family?” Hearing this question they all began to chuckle, but Masaru continued “As long as no one harms my family I will not become an enemy, but if harm does come I will investigate it thoroughly before eliminating the suspect with my own hands even if it is someone in the Alliance, but even if I say this it will not happen because I know the people of the alliance care for peace as much as I do anyway” When the questioning was over Masaru enjoyed talking with the leaders before heading back home.

That night Masaru once again made food for his family since his father, grandparents and great-grandfather came to visit. Damian looked at Ulrika and Roygun ċȧrėssing his chin, “Daughter, tell me is it true that girls with wider hɨps give birth to plenty children?” Calfa who heard this elbowed Damian’s stomach causing the poor old man to crumble down while Ulrika and Roygun were blushing, it was their first time meeting Damian since he was normally meeting with the other Elders. Calfa smiled warmly before pulling the two ladies with her, “If you dare tease my granddaughters I will beat you up” Calfa snorted but Ulrika and Roygun felt happy they were accepted in the family despite being older than Masaru.
Diehauser was quiet tonight while he was looking at Diana quite sternly, even Masaru who was next to him tapped his father’s shoulder “What’s the matter father?” Whether it was unconscious or he simply said it without thinking but “Well she is pregnant” Hearing this the entire house became eerily silent, even Diana flinched at how fast her husband sold her out to her own son, she blushed. Calfa came with lightning speed to Diana taking her hand extra careful, “I-Is that true!?” Diana who saw the eyes of her grandmother blushed before nodding shyly, this display blew Masaru and the rest almost away as this was not normally how Masaru’s mother would act.
“I’m going to become a grandmother again!” Calfa screamed joyfully while her husband came to hug her tightly, Diehauser only coughed softly before walking over to pull Diana over to sit down since it was exposed she could no longer strain herself, this was their agreement that once she is exposed she had to be obedient so Masaru went to the kitchen to complete her work. The girls were even happier while talking to Diana about how it feels, even Diehauser was pushed away from his wife by his daughters but he did not mind it, in fact he felt happy since his daughters-in-law really cared about his wife. Damian nodded, “It was about time, I almost thought my grandson will become a hermit”
Diehauser who heard his grandfather’s comment almost collapsed at how his grandfather was viewing him, “Mom, from now on you can no longer cook” Akeno spoke sternly but Diana could feel the traces of her happiness and care so she nodded, “We girls have been eating in the house so we will be cooking from now on” When the family heard that Masaru’s wives were all preparing to cook instead caused them to laugh happily, just as Masaru was responsible so was his girls. “How long has it been?” Dominic asked his daughter, Diana smiled “Almost two months” a Smile form on his lips while he gazes at his wife, Dominic felt everything was simply to perfect to the point he felt the need to increase security around everyone.

Next morning Masaru and his team were excused from School since they were heading off to the Belial Stadium that was recently completed in his territory where his match against Seekvaira would be held. When Masaru came to the conference room he saw Seekvaira was wearing her custom battle suit waving at him, Masaru waved back while he came closer. “Is it true you pulled Roygun into your team”? Masaru chuckled, “Yes” Seekvaira raised her brow wondering if she should ask the next question but Masaru nodded to answer it instantly, she pouted a bit.
“Are you interested in me?” Hearing this Seekvaira blushed a bit before shaking her head, Masaru smiled gently, if it was him in the past he might not have spotted it but he did. “I will wait till your ready” Masaru spoke softly causing Seekvaira to feel an electric current run throughout her body was she watch Masaru take his seat together with his peerage. Soon the time for the reporters came to enter, the flashing of Cameras did not stop for a moment as most of them were focused on Masaru and his peerage especially Roygun who was former #2.
When the go-ahead was givind the first reporter stood up, “Sir Belial, I would like to know what is your relationship with Miss Belphegor?” Masaru leaned forward towards the mic, “She is now a pawn of my peerage, and as for my relationship with her. It is the same as the others, I will, of course, visit her family in due time” This caused an uproar as the reporters were scribbling down notes of what just happened, the next reporter “Are you aware of her scandal related to the King Piece?” Masaru chuckled, “I would rather ask if there is a perfect clean woman in this world, we all have our skeletons no matter how big or small they are. As for your question, Yes I know and I took her while knowing so. Because I understand her situation better than anyone”
Roygun felt her heart was melting and her body was urging her to just have Masaru hold her in his embrace, he stood up for her in front of the Reporters which was similar to him saying to the world she was his. The rest of the peerage girls were all smiling too, they did not feel jealous as each of them knew for a long time that Masaru would do the same for them. Soon the questions came to how each team felt, especially questions towards Masaru’s peerage was quite numerous. Masaru could only smile wryly at how famous his girls are even without his name, they are truly amazing individually. “I hope you can show me your strongest attack” Seekvaira spoke confidently towards Masaru in front of the reporters, she knew based on power alone she is no match for him but in strategies, she could still challenge him. Masaru smirked, “I will accept your challenge, I hope you will not regret it”
