Uchiha Sasuke: Through The Multiverse - Chapter 7
* * * * *
Sasuke remained impervious to his insults as he replied with a single sentence.
“Raiser Phenex–”
“I will show you what is real flames.”
The air around Sasuke started changing and the temperature momentarily dropped; causing a chill down Raiser’s spine.
– – – – –
Back at the dining hall, the members of the distinguished devil families were all looking at the battle scene, confused at the actions of Sasuke.
“Has Sasuke-kun given up?” Akeno looked over at Rias, who was displaying all sorts of emotions on her face.
“Sasuke…”
– – – –
“OI! WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?! I AM GOING TO BURN YOU COMPLETELY!”
The wall of flames came advancing towards Sasuke and it was at that moment, Sasuke opened his right eye-
“Amaterasu!{Heavenly illumination}”
Amaterasu–
Black flames that were produced at the focal point of the user’s vision.
The black flames produced from Sasuke’s right Mangekyo started devouring Raiser’s flame as though burning through paper.
“WHAT THE…?!”
Within seconds, Raiser’s flames were completely burned out and the black flames dropped onto the ground, continuing to burn away.
Sasuke then shifted his sight towards Raiser and the black flames followed his field of vision.
“GET AWAY FROM ME!”
Raiser tried desperately to escape but the black flames persistently followed him and he was soon completely enveloped in black flames like a cocoon–
“ARGHHHH!!!!! GET IT OFF ME!!! GET IT OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Even though his body tried desperately in vain to repair the burned cells, the produced black flames didn’t let go of its target and continued burning away; that was truly the flames of hell.
Raiser squirmed in agony as he felt as though the flames were penetrating all the way into his soul.
….What is this.
No —- this is a different dimension in terms of high temperature.
How can I, the heir of the Phenex clan, get burned by fire?!
Raiser managed to squeeze out a few words.
“Th…That eye of yours…you…just what are you…?”
Sasuke slowly took a few steps forward.
“These black flames are said to be inextinguishable, forever burning until it’s target burns to ashes. They will continue to burn until the target is eradicated, even if the target is fire itself.”
“With your high regenerative capabilities, you might bȧrėly survive. But, once ignited, it will continue burning for seven days and seven nights; no amount of water can put out these flames.”
“Raiser Phenex, the amount of pain you will suffer through these seven days will make you wish you were dead.”
– – – – –
The spectators were shocked beyond belief.
A member of the Phenex clan was actually defeated with flames?!
How could such a thing even happen?
Sirzechs looked at the screen on display and could not help but reveal a smile.
“Ajuka was right. This man certainly is interesting. That eye of his–”
Various conversation started igniting in the dining hall.
“The heir of the Phenex clan lost to the Sekiryuutei?”
“Incredible. He put out the flames with even more flames.”
“But–I didn’t even see him really use the power of the Boosted Gear. Does this mean his power is not from the Sacred Gear?”
“Just what were those black flames?!”
– – – – –
Sasuke took one last glance at Raiser who was still enshrouded and engulfed by black flames.
A portal then appeared in front of Raiser and a young girl, with long blonde hair tied into twin-tails shaped like large drill-like curls, appeared.
“Onii-sama!”
She then spread her arms wide as though to cover for him.
However, Sasuke simply turned around and closed his eyes.
“I suggest not to get near those flames.”
The girl’s face reddened for a second as Sasuke left such parting words and the field started to crumble.
– – – – –
The medical personnel had to enclose Raiser, who was still writhing in agony, inside a special barrier as they led him away.
“Sekiryuutei–”
“No, Sasuke-kun. What do you want as a reward for winning?” Sirzechs asked Sasuke, who was the winner of the battle.
“Sirzechs-sama?!”
The relatives started criticizing at Sirzechs offer. However–
“It is fitting since he is the winner. We have to honor that. Now then. I can give you anything. A peerage? Or perhaps the most beautiful woman?”
Sirzechs asked Sasuke, ignoring the voices of the others around him.
“Listen to your daughter’s wishes.”
Rias father didn’t say anything and closed his eyes.
The surrounding people could only react in disbelief.
That’s all he is asking?He could have wished for something more grand! Is he crazy or just plain stupid?
At the side, Rias’s face was suddenly kissed pink like a spring rose as she gazed over at Sasuke.

In a mysterious hideout:
“Vali–“A beautiful young woman with a voluptuous figure; long black hair with split bangs, wearing a black Kimono, passed over a file to a young man.
“Here is the report you requested, Nyaa”, the girl spoke with an alluring voice.
The young man called Vali; had light silver hair, hazel eyes, and was wearing a dark green V-neck shirt, with a high collared black leather jacket over it.
“Thank you, Kuroka.”
“Hou, so this is the Sekiryuutei. Black flames that were powerful enough to burn through even the flames of the Phenex family…–”
A smile started to spread across Vali’s face as he continued reading the report.
“It seems his power does not even rely on the Boosted Gear. HAHAHA! This should be the first time a possessor of the Boosted Gear has not relied on its power. This man is already strong without the Sacred Gear. If he were to fully master the powers of the Boosted Gear–he will clearly be unstoppable…”
However, Kuroka was seemingly worried as she voiced her concern.
“Aren’t you worried you will lose to him, Vali?”
However, a fearless smile formed on his face instead.
“Worried? I, Vali Lucifer, only seek strong opponents. That is my goal in life. The Sekiryuutei–To think that my rival of destiny would be such a strong character. This makes me very excited!”
Vali looked upwards as he declared.

“Uchiha Sasuke–”
“I’m looking forward to the day we meet.”
* * * * *
“Unnn… …”
A seductive voice echoed through the room.
The next thing Sasuke knew, he felt a soft sensation on his ċhėst.
What the…
When he opened his eyes; sleeping on top of him, was a nȧkėd crimson haired woman, who was using Sasuke as her hug-pillow!
– – – – –
Lets go back to a few days after the incident with Raiser-
“So, like how I just explained, I, Rias Gremory, will also be living in this house. I might be inexperienced but please take care of me.”
At the living room where Sasuke was staying, a crimson hair beauty was greeting him.
“No.”
Came the immediate reply.
“There is no reason for you to stay here.”
Rias then revealed a sly smile.
“This house was built by the Gremory family. So basically, I have the rights to live here. And, we plan to make this house our base of operations. Onii-sama acknowledges your strength and both my parents also agree. They were the ones who paid for this house anyways.”
“So, please take care of me from now on.” Rias lowered her head again as she smiled.
– – – – –
Back to the present-
“Nnn…oh, you’re awake?”
The girl slowly rubbed her eyes as she lifted her body up and her two massive melons swayed like soft pudding.
“Get off me.”
Sasuke pushed the girl away as he got off the bed.
“What do you think you are doing?” His tone was tinged with harshness as he questioned Rias.
“Hmm…I’m sorry. I felt like sleeping while using you as my hugging pillow. I came in after you went to sleep. After all, this is meant to deepen our bonds.”
However, Rias was met with a very cold reply.
“There is no need to deepen our bonds. What I did against Raiser Phenex was my own personal judgement.”
“Hai. Hai.”
Rias continued, “Sasuke, I have not mentioned it all this time because we only met and I have no rights to ask about your past. But now, I feel I can ask this question–”
“Sasuke, what happened to your left arm?”
Rias looked at Sasuke with meaningful eyes, awaiting his answer.
“This…–”
“This is my punishment for some things I did in the past.” Saying that, Sasuke turned around.
Rias sighed as she watched his back leave the room, her thoughts filled with curiosity over Sasuke’s past.
– – – – –
After Sasuke defeated Raiser, the engagement between the House of Gremory and the House of Phoenix was cancelled.
Raiser suffered through 7 days and 7 nights of hell just as Sasuke explained to him and his body was still in a pretty bad shape.
– – – – –
As Sasuke headed to the living room, he recalled to what Ddraig had said to him before.
[ To fight strong foes that are attracted to power. That’s the path of those who possess the dragon-emperor. Eventually, the white one will appear before you. Every single past possessor of the “Boosted Gear” and “Diving Dividing” have followed this inevitable fate. ]
Sasuke then harked his thoughts to another thing Ddraig had mentioned.
[ Of course, if you wish, I can produce an entirely new one for you. With your strength, you should be able to control its power. ]
The sleeve of Sasuke’s missing arm swayed slightly as a light breeze entered.
– – – – –
“This place is in ruins,” a beautiful young woman with ċhėstnut hair and violet eyes, hair tied into two pony tails, exclaimed as she surveyed the sanctuary.
“I heard that there was a disturbance here recently, caused by a fallen angel and the human who possesses the Boosted Gear.”
Another voice echoed in the abandoned church.
This voice belonged to a young woman with chin-length blue hair and brown eyes.
“It’s getting late. But, are you sure we are supposed to be meeting here, Irina?”
The girl named Irina then swept her hair to the side.
“There’s no way I’d be wrong! I spent time here with my parents as a child after all, Xenovia.”
She took out a worn out picture that showed a young girl and boy playing together in a room.
However, behind those two kids in the photo–
Was a sword.
– – – – –
In another dimension –
The area was overflowing with molten larva as dense smoke constantly rose up to the air.
Two figures were conversing in a castle suspended from the surrounding walls.
“Is this one bad too?” A male with pale skin and pale blue hair; dressed in traditional nobleman’s attire, asked while sitting on a rock.
“Yes. Not one of Kaguya’s scroll remains.” Another male with big hands and a burly physique; accompanied with a towering height over two meters, replied while a mini scroll on his palm slowly disintegrated.
Tsk, the male sitting on the rock clicked his tongue.
“Momoshiki senpai. Are you still here?”
A third voice entered the room.
The male named Momoshiki, looked up at the new figure.
“How is the search for the chakra fruit going?”
However, the new person shook his head.
“We meet after such a long time, and that’s all you’re interested in?”
The pupils of Momoshiki’s eye became more distinct and the veins near his temples started to bulge.
“Yes, yes…but…you might be interested in this as well.”
A fissure started distorting through the air, revealing a scene.
What the scene showed–
Was a male; wearing a black cloak over a black shirt and pants, jumping through a portal.
“Hou, Rinnegan huh. If I’m not wrong, that is also one of Kaguya’s dimensions. If I go there, I might be able to connect to the gateway that the man jumped through.”
Momoshiki started revealing a smirk on his face.
“That man, he might be able to provide us some information. Kinshiki, we are heading out.”
The Rinnegan on Momoshiki’s left palm started glowing and he raised it in front.
Instantly, another black hole large enough for a person to walk through manifested.
“Let’s go, Kinshiki.”
The new figure started panicking.
“J-just a minute. You’re going already?!”
“Hey!”
However, Momoshiki didn’t reply as he stepped through the portal.
– – – – –
“Oh Momo, you’re as unsociable as ever.”
