Life In Dxd - Chapter 258
After Asia was done with her fight for the cause of ‘saving’ the underworld. She and her familiar landed on the ground and she looked at the others with a smile.
She then looked at Sirzechs whose mouth was still wide open because of shock and with a radiant smile on her face said, “Don’t worry Sirzechs-san, Those giant f.u.c.kera are now gone for good. I pummeled each of those giant walking assholes to ground and made sure that those shitheads don’t regenerate again. The underworld is safe now.”
Sirzechs with his mouth still opened looked around and saw black smoke rising in the sky and the ground looking like life has never existed on the land for as far as he could see. He then looked at Asia and thought, ‘Safe my ass you adorable angelic demoness riding on an evil dragon.’
He then turned his head towards Tatsuya who averted his eyes as soon as their gazes met.
‘Look at me you OP bastard. Look me in the eyes and say that the underworld is safe.’
“Phew, that was really tiring, the new balance breaker took a lot since I am not used to it.” said Asia as she deactivated her balance breaker and stretched her body. She then turned towards her familiar which was a sprite dragon, who was now totally grown up because of training in the time chamber, and motioned him to lower his head, to which the dragon complied and lowered his head.
“Good work there Ratsu, you really did a good job, there. See everyone is totally speechless by our performance today.” and looked towards the others who just showed the girl and dragon duo a wry smile on their faces.
“How about it Tatsuya-san, we did good, right?” and looked towards Tatsuya with a smile on her face and with a face which seemed to be saying, “Praise me. Praise me.”
Tatsuya who heard this question stiffened a bit, but instantly expression changed and he looked at her with a charming smile and didn’t say anything.
‘This is the best choice, no need to say anything.’
Seeing his choice of response almost all of them wanted to retort but before they were able to say anything Tatsuya looked at the and showed a ‘smile’ to them as well.
Asia and her familiar who saw Tatsuya’s smile were also smiling as they got praised by him and Asia said, “See, Ratsu-kun, even Tatsuya-san agrees, let’s do our best again when the underworld is in a crisis.”
“NOOOOO!!!!”
A certain red head who heard Asia talking to the dragon immediately shouted without thinking anything making all people to look at him with a slight surprise.
“I-I-I mean, Asia-kun, there is no need for you to do this much for underworld since you are not affiliated to our faction, right? It would not look good, if everytime we were to rely on you if something like this happens, right?”
Asia furrowed her brows a bit and thought about it for a while and said, “That certainly is true. Hmmm…..well it can’t be helped.” But then a charming smile once again appeared on her face and she said, “But don’t hesitate to ask my help if my friends were in danger, after all many of my friends live here. I will take care of the matter if something like that were to happen.”
Hearing those sweet words along with the charming smile and her beautiful voice, Asia looked like an angel at that moment….. However to a certain red headed maou, those words were nothing but threat. Those words said by Asia in a setting where almost everything in the surrounding was destroyed, smoke rising from various places, no signs of life anywhere nearby and an Asia totally covered in blood with an evil dragon behind her made a perfect scene of dread inside Sirzechs’s mind. To him the smile didn’t looked charming even one bit, it was like a viscous smirk to Sirzechs’s eyes and seeing all that a shiver went down the Maou’s spine making him shiver up a bit. He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down and looked towards the boss of the demoness.
Tatsuya who saw Sirzechs looking at him was about to use his telepathy to know what he was thinking but before he was even able to Sirzechs grabbed Tatsuya’s shoulder and threw him high up in the air shocking everyone near him. He then took out his wings and immediately flew up in the air to catch upto Tatsuya and also transformed into his super form.
Tatsuya who was also a bit surprised by Sirzechs’s sudden action used his telepathy on him and sighed. He then noticed the maou covered in power of destruction rushing towards him and didn’t do anything.
Sirzechs seeing that didn’t even flinched a bit and punched Tatsuya’s gut with his full power to which Tatsuya just blocked it with his hand covered in magic so as to not get damaged by the power of destruction.
The moment when Sirzechs’s fist connected to Tatsuya’s hand a very large shock wave got released from the collision and a an extremely loud noise was heard for over a 100km.
Sirzechs then freed his hand and turned back to his normal form and with a relived sigh said, “Haaa!!! Now I feel a bit better.” He then looked at Tatsuya and with a said, “Thanks for being the punching bag.” but in the next instant Tatsuya punched Sirzechs as well who too was able to block it without much difficulty.
“Now then, take responsibility for Aisa-kun’s actions and turn everything back to normal. I have too many things to deal with right now. Tell me what happened in Kuoh later and everything you know about the incident. Bye.” but just as he was about to teleport a small magic circle appeared in front of him and a projection of Millicas appeared from it.
“Father!! Father!! a one of the bigger giants suddenly came crashing down on council building!!! Grandfather got caught in the explosion and is heavily injured!!! Hurry up and come here!!!! Bring Grandma and the others as well.”
Both Tatsuya and Sirzechs fell silent at the sudden news and Sirzechs looked at the sky and said, “OF ALL PLACES SHE COULD HAVE THROWN THE GIANT WHY THE HELL DID IT HAVE TO BE THE COUNCIL!!!!”
“Umm, your father is injured as well you know? And sorry about her throwing the giant at the council.” He then thought, ‘Though it is my fault since I changed the trajectory a bit to make him land near Zeotif.u.c.ks. WHY THE HELL WERE YOU AT COUNCIL YOU BASTARD!!! ITS YOUR FAULT FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF THE COUNCIL BUILDING!!!’
Sirzechs looked at him and said, “That is not that big of a problem, father and the other older councilmen have got more serious wounds during the war times, so they are used to it. The problem here are the weaker councilmen. They are going to make a lot of complaints now, since they might think that it a scheme from someone who don’t want the them to be on the council. Ahh I can immagine the amount of paperwork that would be coming to me. Not to mention that idiot magical girl will put most of her work in my pile too. AHH JUST KILL ME ALREADY!!! STAB MY HEART WITH A HOLY SWORD AND JUST KILL ME!!!”
Tatsuya looked at the maou with pity and said, “Don’t yet die on me, here take this, it will atleast ease your worries a bit.”
Sirzechs looked at Tatsuya and saw him holding his hand out with a pair of spectacles in his hand and a beautiful red coloured pen in the other.
Sirzechs looked at the items with a curious gaze seeing which Tatsuya said, “These glasses will let you read at a speed of 500 words per second.” Hearing which Sirzechs’s eyes widened in surprise as he carefully took the specs from Tatsuya’s hands and looked at it as if he was holding the world’s largest diamond in his hands.
“Y-You are telling the truth, right? This treasure will really let me read at that speed?!?!” to which Tatsuya just gave an assuring nod.
Sirzechs gulped his saliva and wore kept the glasses in the case which Tatsuya gave him and then stored them in his pocket. He then eyes the beautiful red pen and asked, “And what about the pen? Don’t tell me, it will let me right at the speed of hundred words per second or something?”
Tatsuya chuckled and said, “Nah, it’s nothing that great.” Hearing which Sirzechs slumped his shoulders feeling a bit disappointed.
“It’s just let you make 5 more clones of yourself when you put your demonic energy into it. Though your power gets dived equally a…..s we..ll.”
During the later part of sentence Sirzechs was already hugging Tatsuya very tightly. Tight enough to shatter any mid-ultimate class being without any problem.
“THANK YOU TATSUYA-KUN!!!! YOU ARE THE BEST!!! UWAA!!! I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW THAT I COULDN’T TELL YOU!!! I AM A VERY BLESSED PERSON TO HAVE YOU AS MY FRIEND!!!!”
Tatsuya who was being hugged by a crying Sirzechs just patted his back and let him be and thought, ‘Your dad might be dying right now, you know.’
