How To Survive In The World DxD With Fragment Memories - Chapter 134

Barakiel nodded, “If you don’t mind me asking but why are you acting so close to Masaru?” Hearing this question Samsara glances at Masaru, “Because this boy is fated for greater things, only he alone will be able to break the loneliness we beings who lived from the start with no determined death day.” Samsara spoke as she whispered to Masaru, “I will always be watching over you with her form now on, Masaru…”

“Loneliness?” Barakiel asked with a confused face to which Samsara look at him with a smile that contained unimaginable amount of loneliness, “Have you ever imagined living since the beginning of creation up until now, watching how all those who you cared about die from age and get replaced by their descendants? Similar to how Gods are replaced by their children only for them to be reborn much further in the future again… But we who have been here from the start never had the privilege to start anew… Like me… and Ophis”

Samsara glances at Masaru after she finished pouring in everything she intended to into Masaru’s body, he was not certain what it was but he could sense her words contained undeniable truth. “With him who is destined for trials, we beings with endless time can finally experience what it is like to restart a new life, even if we live within our chosen one” Barakiel did not understand everything but Masaru felt his Grimoire shaking, he was not sure what it was saying but whatever entered his body was pulled towards his King Mark where the Grimoire was. Soon the two powers began to swirl without merging sharing the single mark without conflict.

Masaru kept silent about this as he did not want to talk about this kind of details in front of Barakiel, it was not that he did not trust his father in law but he wanted to deal with this himself. Samsara let go of Masaru’s hand as she turned to look towards Barakiel “How about this, I will show you around the afterlife while I will listen to your proposal” She suggested, Barakiel nodded although reluctantly but he had no choice as she was their best bet to take over Hades if they are forced to kill the skeleton.

“I will say it right now Barakiel, you should tell Azazel that killing Hades will do more than just disrupt the flow of the souls” Samsara spoke as she led them into a room that kept changing with a large group of souls that appears to be typing on a keyboard without a computer screen, but instead in front of them was slabs of granites with words they were typing was appearing on. “As you can see this is a part of Akashic Record room which I manage, before I send the soul to be cleansed of its past life to live a new one my subordinates records their lives onto the slabs that will enter the Record”

“But the parts Hades control is different from me, unlike I who guide both good and evil people wiping their past karma clean before rebirth. Hades is more in charge of guiding those who accumulated too much negative Karma to the underworld to be tortured endlessly, but he is also in charge of keeping Tartarus & Cocytus locked!” Samsara explains some of the known roles Hades was in charge of, “Taking him down means you have to find someone who can fill in the position for those three important positions, and finding such person is not easy. Even if I am the Goddess of Life and Death, I never imprisoned people before”

Barakiel realized that Samsara did not deny to help them but she denied taking on Hades Roles as there was a difference between how she managed the souls of the departed compared to how Hades did, “I see, Azazel told me that it will be close to impossible but we had to make sure if there really is nothing else we can do” Barakiel muttered with a wry smile to which Samsara smiled while nodding “That’s right, when one becomes a True God they are given a title. But not anyone can fit the title, it is closely tied to compatibility not only in power but in the person’s nature as well”

“Thank you for your kind explanation, we will take our leave” Barakiel was about to leave but Samsara grab hold on Masaru’s sleeve, “You may leave, but I have some business with this boy” She answered with an authoritative voice that made Barakiel flinch as he knew she would not take No for an answer and offending her now would cause all their plans to fall apart. “No need to worry about me Father-in-law, I will be fine”

Barakiel nodded reluctantly as he was escorted out of the Afterlife realm leaving Masaru alone with the briquette doll loli girl, Masaru glances at the girl who smiled happily while holding his hand with no intentions of letting it go anytime soon. She took him out of the room into the corridor of her palace which leads to the small back garden with a tea house surrounded by black roses and only a single red rose stood out among them all.

‘Drago, mind explaining what happened?’ Masaru spoke within his mind to call out his reliable partner, [You want to talk about why the Goddess of Life and Death sent her soul into your soul?] Masaru who heard this had a shocked expression not hiding it as he looked at Samsara who took a seat and he sat opposite of her, “Why?” hearing Masaru’s question Samsara did not answer immediately as she first called her servant to brew them tea and to bake snacks.

When the Servant left did Samsara glance at him with her silver eyes, “Because I said it before, you alone can make me experience a new start in life. This is my selfish wish” She spoke but she pointed her palm to stop Masaru from questioning as she continues, “I will naturally support you in all your choices, dreams and path. All I want is to live within you” Hearing her answer Masaru was confused because entering him will not be living a second life, ‘How the hell does living within me count as a second life?’ Masaru thought only to feel a headache was approaching.

“Will you allow me?” Samsara asked with adorable puppy eyes, Masaru did not answer immediately and Drago reported to him as Drago knew Masaru wanted his input [Trust her boy, besides having her help will be beneficial for you. Even the Grimoire is telling me to tell you to accept it, you can trust her] Drago spoke, Masaru nodded as he knew he could trust the Grimoire and Drago who had his back after all this time.

And the fight with Zhang Meng made him realize he required more power at the level of his pseudo-Kouryuu Mode if he were to face Mid Class Gods again in the future. “Very well, but—” Masaru was about to suggest she should at least be completely cooperative but Samsara grasps his face as she kissed him deeply initiating the Kissing Prayer. At that moment Masaru felt his mind was going haywire with questions ‘Why is she kissing me? How does she know the Kissing Prayer? Wait! Why the hell am I enjoying a kiss with a girl that looks like a Middle schooler!?’

When Samsara parted after completing the ritual she licked the traces of Masaru’s saliva from her lips as she smiled seductively, “With this, you can trust me?” Hearing Samsara’s question Masaru had a conflicted face scolding himself to increase his defences against beautiful girls, he sighed “Can you at least explain?” He asked, “Tell me, if you had the Kissing Prayer that guarantees you to meet your loved ones again in the next life, will you use it or not?”

Before Masaru could answer Samsara smiled as she continued, “My answer is the same, only through you can I enjoy the life and death cycle myself. Naturally, I will not give up the chance for it” Samsara smiled teasingly to which Masaru accepted it, he was at least warned that long-lived Gods and Goddesses were odd due to their old age. He leaned back as he looked at her attentively “If you entered me, then why are you in front of me?”

“Oh this? This is just a sliver of my will I left before I entered you, don’t worry this incarnation is more than enough to keep my duties without trouble” Samsara answered nonchalantly, Masaru sighed as he expected this girl did… “I rejected the job otherwise I will never be able to enter within you” She added to which Masaru slammed his head on the table, this girl… is something else.

“You say he stayed behind to keep Goddess Samsara company!?” Azazel fell off his chair when his best friend Barakiel contacted him to let him know about the current situation, [Yes, for some reason she spoke in riddles that Masaru is the only one who can relieve the loneliness of infinite beings like her and Ophis… I have no idea what she meant] Hearing Barakiels words Azazel already came up with several hypotheses but he was not certain which would be the most likely reality.

“What is her answer about Hades?” Azazel asked, [She said it was impossible for her, she can support us but we need to find someone who can take over the positions Hades is in charge of if we ever consider to eliminate him] It was as Azazel expected, Odin explained how the Gods and their positions worked but he still hoped there could be a loophole he could exploit and get rid of that annoying piece of bones.

[Also I have sent the reports of Masaru’s sacred gear that evolved] Barakiel concluded his report as he closes the connection, Azazel smirked as he goes over the details of Masaru’s sacred gear suċkɨnġ cold air out of shock as he did not expect to be correct to this degree. “a Sacred Gear with Five Balance Breakers this is only possible because of the Evil Piece system, how marvellous. From the looks of it, he unlocked two of them and one is already pending? He seriously is working fast” Azazel starts to read the reports including some footages of Masaru’s fight while wearing both White Tiger and Azure Dragon Emperor Modes.

“So you have been working together with Masaru while he was in China?” Akeno asked Zhou Hai who was in charge of touring Masaru’s women around Beijing, “Yes Madam Akeno, Boss gave me the privilege to be his driver around China and it was really eventful” Zhou Hai answered, the girls were asking him questions about Masaru’s trip and at times they would throw tricky questions to see if Zhou hai could be trusted.

And the fatty did not disappoint as he was completely loyal to his boss Masaru who he looks up to, Roygun and Ulrika both approved on having him moved to the Underworld where he can work more closely to Hiei’s true operations as repayment for his loyalty. Akeno answered the phone talking for a while, when she put the phone down she felt a bit sad but still shared the news with the rest of the girls, “Masaru will not be coming home tonight, as he expected Goddess Samsara asked him to keep her company”

“No need to worry about the Boss, even when those goddesses of China seduced him he would not look at them at all!” Zhou Hai spoke to which the girls knew more than he did, the Kissing Prayer was also a symbol and their pillar of certainty. Masaru knew relationships were like a river at times it was calm and at times it was rough, the Kissing prayer gave him three perks: Certainty for both him and the girls to not doubt him, Powerful Power Boost and Life together forever.

“We have to leave for the underworld soon, Sairaorg’s match will soon start” Yui reminded the girls who all began to move faster to buy gifts for the parents-in-law and their family members before they left China, Zhou Hai went back to stay in a Motel near the Great Wall of China waiting for his Boss to come back.

But little did they know, that Samsara joined their ranks as a hidden wife. How will Masaru explain this and how will the girls accept it? More mentioning about Trials surfaced in front of Masaru but he has no idea of Trials, with no lead he can’t investigate it since Samsara was quiet and Drago was oblivious to it all… yet the one who knows it all still had yet to talk with him a second time… But when will it be?
