How To Survive In The World DxD With Fragment Memories - Chapter 116

After two days of staying in Capital City Lilith, nothing happened other than several corporations joined to fix the damaged buildings which were under the orders of Masaru since his father along with his grandfather and great-grandfather managed to get decent amount of shares from the companies which caused the Belial Family’s influence around the Devil world to grow almost instantaneously. The Capital City of the Belial territory was renamed to Victory Capital which was named after Masaru, and the offices that handled the Administration undergone another upgrade with additional floors that now handled administrations of the companies the Belial Corporation have shares in.

The number of subordinates Masaru now had was enough and thus it was time to give it a proper name, Hiei meaning Flying Shadows. With the territory of the organisation was stabilized and operations were moving efficiently, the influence Bael held over the shadows of the Devil World was growing weaker yet the family had a hard time finding out who is behind this organisation because each time they capture the person they realized it was a former Old Satan Faction member and their memories were erased. Thanks to the rescue operation that was completed by subordinates and the girls, Masaru’s fame among the commoners grew further, now he was regarded as an Unsung Hero.

“Are you certain you don’t want to publicize your achievements? It’s not like I want my brother-in-law’s Oppai Dragon to flourish but…” Sirzech spoke with a complicated face as he looked at Masaru who was not one bit bothered about the situation, “Keep my achievements hidden, I’m making use of your brother-in-law to attract all the attention, that way I will have an easier time dealing with my enemies if they were to keep their eyes on me instead, not to mention I am only a main character in Serafall’s show because I really owe my sister-in-law, nothing more and nothing less”

Sirzech sighed while nodding, he wrote up the report about what happened in Capital City Lilith “I will be leaving for Grigori as agreed” Masaru turned and left, Grayfia looked at the back of a boy who could have fame far surpassing even the Satans but chose to remain hidden, “Lord Sirzech, is it fine?” Sirzech smiled wryly, “He has the same temperament as his teacher Ajuka when it comes to such things, he already has everything he dėsɨrės and fame is something he does not require but already have” Grayfia nodded while walking out of the office to make tea for her husband, ‘But this shadow organisation that is fighting for power against Bael, if I did not receive a letter I would have thought they were enemies’ Sirzech thought while pulling a small page behind the report he was writing.

“Masaru, the territory is stable” Roygun appeared next to Masaru, he took the report seeing that it was done by Ulrika he smiled a bit, “Did you sent the girls to the locations I asked?” Roygun nodded, Masaru had the girls split up to ȧssist the Gods of Japan against the ȧssaults of the Hero Faction as well as Asgard, although it was not necessary with this the higher level gods no longer need to make movements and the girls can get some battle experiences as well. “Yes, Ulrika however, decided to stay in Belial Territory to handle the conflict with Bael Family” Masaru nodded as he too felt it will be better if Ulrika can keep an eye over the Bael, the family was fine but he knew there was still traitors lurking there.

“Since your my support for today, we will be heading to Grigori. Can you send a message to my old man so he knows” Roygun smiled warmly at Masaru’s request sending a message to Diehauser before the two of them teleported to the lands of the Fallen Angels, the layout of the fallen angels was not that much different from the Devils, however, if something could be pointed out is the fact each city had a red light district and Love hotels and other kinds of “special” cafe’s and stores were overly popular here.

Masaru and Roygun arrived at the southern section that was close to the Capital City which was under the rule of Shemhazai, in front of them was a handsome man in his twenties, with silver-white hair and purple eyes. His outfit consists of a purple beret hat, purple trench coat over a black vest, white pants and black boots. “It’s an honour to meet the Demon King” Roygun choked a bit before giggling, even Masaru had a cramped smile for a moment “Pleased to meet the Vice Governor, Lord Shemhazai” Shemhazai chuckled before correcting his greeting to Masaru.

“I’m glad you arrived when you did since Barakiel and Azazel is currently on the lookout for Loki we were quite in a pinch since we can’t easily reveal our trump cards” Masaru nodded when he heard the reason which was what he expected, even Ajuka his teacher was not making moves since they felt someone was monitoring the situation. “How often do the attacks happen?” Masaru walked together with Shemhazai who teleported them to the entrance which led to their main headquarters, “So far it appears they attack at random times but it is as expected. They are using us like a whetstone to force their brainwashed members to achieve balance breaker”

Masaru followed Shemhazai with Roygun, what Masaru saw was several large training grounds with people using different kinds of Sacred Gears and several men wearing white robes recording down discoveries, “Researching sacred gears?” Shemhazai nodded then looked towards Masaru, “Your sacred gear is special… I am not sure if you noticed it but if I am not mistaken you achieved balance breaker when you inserted an object which held a soul of a dragon, am I correct?” Masaru thought for a moment before nodding, since he already investigated Shemhazai, he knew this man was extremely loyal to Azazel so he trusted this information with him.

“Then it explains it, your sacred gear is actually not Byakko but Kouryuu… I am not certain for what reason God made the sacred gear like this but in order to unlock this sacred gear, you need to find souls or spiritual objects that houses the souls of a phoenix and a Turtle and only then will be you able to full activate your sacred gear” Shemhazai explains, when Drago heard this the sacred gear appeared on Masaru’s hand without him calling it out [That explains this annoying sharp sun I am sensing familiar presence in this room and the changes to my scales] “You never told me about this before” Drago snorted [You want to hear how I underwent a sėx change as well do you!? That is how embarrassing it feels when the colour of my scales turned from jade green to azure]

Shemhazai nodded, “That means you still have to unlock the Balance Breaker for Azure dragon huh?” Masaru looked at Shemhazai with surprise, “It’s not confirmed, however, Azazel speculated that your sacred gear has the possibility of having four different Balance Breakers, the downside would be each balance breaker specializes in something. Like Byakko specializes in bestial senses and sharpness, Seiryuu or Azure Dragon will be strong aura and overwhelming physical strength, Suzaku will be healing and strong flames and finally, Genbu will be on the defensive side. We believe the moment you achieve balance breaker in all four of them you will be able to unlock Kouryuu which is sealed by God with this unique seal”

“No wonder Meng Zhang from China was surprised to see how I unlocked Balance Breaker” Masaru rubbed his forehead, “Correct, That Hrunting sword you inserted was the main catalyst required for you to unlock Byakko’s form. As for the requirement for Seiryuu form, I can only guess but I think once that dragon finishes his mutation would it be achievable” [How the hell did you know I have not finished changing!? I feel like I was seen nȧkėd! My poor maiden heart] Shemhazai, Masaru and Roygun had blank faces when they heard this and chose to ignore it in the end.

“Speaking of souls, why have Avalon became a part of the sacred gear?” Shemhazai who heard this felt surprised, “You got the scabbard of Excalibur from the Pendragon Family!?” Masaru nodded, “This— Consider Avalon having the same properties as Hrunting then it should be a vessel that can house a soul within it, if that is not the reason then even I don’t know” Masaru ċȧrėsses his chin but could only nod, this already explained a few questions for him since he wondered why he felt his sacred gear was different from others. Soon they entered a room that had the appearance of a board room with several monitoring screens reflecting the position the Hero Faction attacked recently.

“Oi! It seems Masaru’s peerages are splitting up dealing with our experimentations!” Georg hurriedly reported to Cao Cao who is still recovering from the injury at his face he received from Masaru. When he heard this he was not the least bit surprised but since they did not know where Masaru himself was they could not efficiently make a counter plan. “Carry on with the plans as is till we know where Masaru is, get the contact from Qlippoth to help us find out where Masaru is”

Georg nodded while Cao Cao looked at the small note that was written in ancient Hindi runic letters, it was a message from Indra stating that he managed to convince Hades to make use of the Dragon Eater but he had to make use of this opportunity as it can only be used once. “This God sure loves driving Humans around for his own ambitions… Does he not know that Shiva would not take his childish taunts seriously” Cao Cao burnt the letter while thinking of the pain that was still pulsing, “I will get you back for this Masaru…”

Later that night, “Well be on the lookout since Azazel is currently following Odin right now, so the Heroes will be attacking soon to prevent us from sending reinforcements” Shemhazai spoke with Masaru who was currently looking over the territory, “Understood” Masaru turned towards Roygun who was already notifying the girls who were scattered in teams protecting different sites, “Everyone is notified” Masaru nodded then turned to look at the bright city that never goes dark, Masaru could see how the commoners were living quite peacefully despite how disturbed the world really is. ‘There was a time I too wanted to live like this but now… I feel my current lifestyle is the best’ He thought while smiling.

Shortly a large scale mist appear near the city followed by several hundred of shadow figures, Masaru and Roygun immediately went over to confront the large group, “Just where did Cao Cao get all these humans” Roygun could easily spot a few strange things, “Only the minority is sacred gear holders, there is many holding demonic or Holy swords between them” Masaru nodded while landing on the ground, when the group of heroes saw Masaru’s appearance they immediately stopped not daring a take a step forward.

“He’s here!” Some of them screamed out when Georg saw the figure of Masaru he immediately contacted Cao Cao, “Let the group keep him busy, come back and send another batch to the devil side” Georg nodded before disappearing, Masaru stretched his body a bit while he was looking at the large group of heroes before turning to Roygun, “Only knock them out, we can make use of them” Roygun nodded while Masaru followed closely behind her, with their current speed of taking down the heroes was fast, however, Masaru was scanning their bodies while using Worthless to destroy the latent poison within their bodies before transporting them to the organisation.

“Girls, knock out the heroes and sent them to Ulrika” When Masaru sent out an order to the girls instead of killing the heroes were knocked out and sent to Ulrika, while Masaru sent the scan reports so she could get the scientists to remove the poison. It was only after a few hours Cao Cao felt something was wrong as the heroes were disappearing so he went to check out the situation at one of the sites but what he saw infuriated him beyond his control, Masaru was stealing his resources. When Shirone spotted him she immediately contacted Masaru, since he was done defending Grigori he teleported to where Shirone was.

Seeing Masaru appeared nearby, Cao Cao immediately calmed down as he knew he could replenish his resources through Indra. “Yo Masaru! It’s been a while” Masaru laughed out loud looking at the bump on Cao Cao’s face, Cao Cao felt irritated at Masaru laughing at him so openly which was humiliating. “How is the face, Cao Cao? If I knew you were a woman I would have used lesser force” Cao Cao snorted as he could not contain the anger any longer, “What are you doing with my men Masaru!” Masaru smirked, “I am simply picking up all the resources you’re throwing away like garbages”

When Cao Cao heard this his heart felt cold, from the looks of Masaru’s face it meant he had a method to deal with the poison they snuck into the body of the heroes. “It is quite a unique way to use Ophis’s snake in such a way, but if treated before it activates then it’s worthless” Cao Cao prepared his spear but several thousand magic circles appeared around him before it unleashed several elemental arrows, Masaru knew he could not kill Cao Cao because he was not yet ready to face the patron behind this group of rascals.

Cao Cao spins his spear around his body while striking down the arrows before he was rescued by Georg who teleported him away, “Why did you allow him to get away?” Amaterasu appeared next to Masaru, Masaru sighed then turned to look at her with tired eyes “Because the man behind this group of rascals is something neither me nor you can handle right now, the situation is too delicate for Gods to fight” hearing this Amaterasu nodded as she understood this boy would not lie to her and for him to say such a thing meant this God was definitely in a high position.

“Where have you taken the captured humans?” Masaru smirked, “I did teleport them to my territory but they all died because of the poison, I had to trick Cao Cao into thinking I can deal with the poison in order for him to pull back” Amaterasu was suspicious of this story but it sounded so reasonable she could not point out where it felt wrong, but since it was not her problem she no longer cared about it but instead invited Masaru to join the banquet she will hold to thank him and the two girls who supported them to protect their area.

[Your really lucky your real mom guarded your mind otherwise that Goddess would have known your lying] Drago spoke with Masaru who chuckled, ‘That’s true, make sure to keep her company okay?’ [No no no, you want me to die boy!?] Sudden Masaru could hear mournful screams of Drago before it became silent again, from the sound of it, it appears his mother was pissed off at Drago and had him “accompany” her so she could punish him.

>/<

“Damn it!” Cao Cao began breaking the furniture in their room feeling quite enraged at Masaru, not only did he laughed at him for beating his face, but he even stole his resources which took him several years to gather and train. “I want to kill him!!” He screamed while Georg was looking silently at his leader, he knew better than anyone that this was the first time Cao Cao to lose control over his emotions like this, it was like he got played around instead of him playing around with his enemies. ‘Masaru… Belial is a fearsome enemy’ Georg thought
