Chapter 124: Divine Sibling Rivalry. (Raw)
When Kurayami and Akeno were going to go talk with their mother who had called in all of her friends along with Kurayami's tiny social circle. His male friends considered only Azrael, Ares, Azazel, Shin, and Tobio. That was it, which really made him cringe at how few friends he had.
He glanced to his right where his bear-sized dog was at his side and pet him with a small frown on his face. The big dog licked his face as he tried to comfort him as he could feel the thought in his friends' mind. Akeno glanced over at him and chuckled at his face.
"Now you realized how few friends you got, you loner. I mean, I bet you counted Shin among your friends, which you realize he is your other half right? At least you got us, girls, as your friends, but every guy needs their bros as they call it."
He sighed at the very truth in her words.
"Well whatever, I got all the friendships I need with you girls and my current male friends. Does Great Red count?"
She thought about it before she shook her head.
"Unless the big guy says it, no."
He rolled his eyes and went down to talk to his mother. She was currently in the kitchen seeing how the chefs were starting up a big feast as quite a few people were going to arrive. When he and Akeno entered the kitchen she glanced over at them with a big frown.
Both Akeno and Kurayami walked up to their mother before he asked her what she wanted.
"Do you want that memory gone?"
She nodded with a huge frown so he pocked her forehead and wiped that memory from her mind. He did keep in her mind the fact she had seen something, but not what it was. She sighed when she no longer could see the haunting images.
"Please, for my sake lock your doors."
Both Akeno and Kurayami nodded at her words, but now that she could focus she hugged both of them tightly. She glanced at her daughter that was also growing well in the chest and her height. She was already 5'10 but compared to her brother that was small as he was 6'9.
Shuri herself was 5'4 so she had to crane her neck to look at either of her children which she blamed on her husband for being so tall. When she released her hug she went back to focusing on the cooks which were pulling all the stops.
"Oh son, I wanted to see if you could try to Invite Lady Amaterasu. I invited Suzako and she said she would be here within the hour. I felt it would be a good chance to talk to her over a simple celebration."
Kurayami and Akeno glanced at each as they were just talking about her. Kurayami smiled before he nodded.
"Sure, it would be nice. Last time Azrael killed several members of the Himejima clan. How has gone the reformation?"
Shuri smiled at the work of her niece.
"Well now sacred gear users are not suppressed and fewer people are getting exiled for no good reasons. Last I checked Suzaku wanted to invite you two but thought you would hate the clan too much."
Kurayami shook his head.
"Nah, I got no outstanding hatred for the clan. Now if you had been killed that would have been a different story. I will go now, Akneo want to come with me?"
She nodded as she grabbed his sleeve.
"Sure."
Before he left he summoned all his familiars in tiny form while the creatures all looked up to him. Except for Ladon and Atakan as one could take human form and the other human shape.
As for the others, they all jumped on him as they loved their master more than anything. Tyrant even landed on his shoulder so he gave them a small order
"I want you all to patrol the area around here. If nothing seems wrong you all can just relax. London try not to poison anyone, Atakan no soul-eating. The angry Black nightmare scoffed before walking away to do his job.
As for Ladon, he shrugged.
"No prob, unless I see Zeus I will not kill or poison anyone. Have fun with your great-grandmother, she is a looker. Gonna marry her too? Last I checked she had married her own brother just like you boss."
Kurayami finished the story before he left.
"Before he killed a food goddess or something before she divorced him. I am not going to that."
He teleported away and which made Ladon laugh at his master. He sometimes did not feel like a true slave as Kurayami treated him more like a friend. He looked at the rest of the familiars who were all leaving to do their job.
"Well miss Shuri, I guess it runs in the family for them to marry siblings."
Shuri glanced at the purple-haired man with a frown.
'Is that why Kurayami and Akeno are in that kind of relationship. Maybe this was just destiny.'
Just before she went back to work she noticed Ladon about to steal some food so she kicked him out of the kitchen to do his job.
As for Kurayami, he appeared at Takamagahara the home of the Shinto gods with Akeno. As a course, he did not directly appear inside as that would be rude so he appeared at the base of the mountain they had as home.
Kurayami used his telepathy to talk to Amaterasu.
"Lady Ametarasu, it's me Kurayami. I wanted to see if I could see you personally."
When she heard his message she agreed as she did not see much point in denying it. Last time because of her his mother was nearly killed. Kurayami teleported them to her dwelling at the top of the mountain where she was sitting Seiza while gazing at the sun.
Just from a glance now that he was older he was sure that Akneo got her good looks from her. Their resemblance was almost visible. She looked at him and Akneo before smiling warmly.
"Kurayami, Akeno, it has been a few years yes?"
He and Akeno bowed lightly as a show of respect.
"Yes, it has been a few years lady Amaterasu."
She shook her head at him before she stood up and took his hands.
"You two can just call me Amaterasu. I see your sacred gear has evolved quite a lot in your presence. I can feel the Divine presence of Ama-no-Ohabari more than ever from him. Still, it feels wrong."
She was looking at Shin who was sitting down like a normal dog. Kurayami nodded as he explained a bit.
"Shin is part of me and he gained my talent and power. He can already produce cursed versions of Ama-no-Ohabari. He still can't make a holy version for some reason."
She looked at Shin wh produced one such weapon in his mouth with interest.
"I see, he is an anti divine creature, and creating divine weapons is not compatible with his power."
She walked over and pet the huge dog who put the sword away while she enjoyed the ear scratches. seeing her friendly smile made her really seem like a friendly grandmother to him and Akeno just like the last time he met her when they were children.
She stopped petting Shin before she took Akeno's hands.
"Hard to believe that not long ago you two were small children now you are close to marrying. I wish you two happy wedding."
Akeno nodded before they asked her what they wanted.
"You can come to it if you want; It will be very soon. We wanted to see if you would be interested in coming to a pregnancy Reveal party for my brother's daughters. I also wanted to ask a bit about a certain power I learned not long ago."
Akeno backed away before she raised her hand producing a bright gold flame. Seeing it made Ametarasu smile warmly as she looked at her decedent.
"You really managed to unlock one of my abilities. No one from the Himeima clan ever managed to unlock the real version of it. I would love to ans-"
*BOOOOOM*
Amaterasu grimaced before a very handsome young man with flowing black hair with a sword in his hands and thunderstorms followed behind him in the sky. When he looked at Kurayami he grinned before pointing his Katana at him.
"I, Susanoo have heard everything. I wish to come as well."
Kurayami and Akeno glanced at him with strange looks while he thought they were speechless to see his greatness.
"Do not fear, for I shall not harm you. I nearly want to leave this place, she has me on house arrest."
He pointed at Ametarasu before he played his sword back in its sheath. Kurayami noticed that Ametarasu did not look pleased to see hr rowdy younger brother and was about to attack him. As for Kurayami, he shrugged.
"Sure you can come."
Susanoo grinned as he drew his sword back out.
"First we fight."
Kurayami heard the sound of a sword being drawn from a sheet next to him as Ametarasy looked ready to explode. She no longer looked as kind as before and only annoyance was clear on her face.
On a closer look at her power, Kurayami realized she was actually quite a bit stronger than Zeus. A massive divine aura was released from her body as scorching rays of the sun beat down on her sword powerful divine sword.
Seeing she seemed serious and it was possible she was about to beat him senseless Susanoo was the first to retreat.
"Ok, I promise I won't cause trouble."
In the end, she calmed down and placed her sword back as well.
"Fine, he can come. You two can fight later if you want. Now I for one will head with Suzaku, as for my brother you can keep him Kurayami."
The god was about to scream he was not a pet, but Kurayami grabbed him from the nape of his neck with a strong grip. No matter how much he struggled he could not get free making Ametarasu smile.
"You two can just call me grandmother, as for him call him whatever you want."
She left in a ray of sunlight toward the Himejima clan before Akeno glanced at the still struggling god.
"Hey Susanoo, why does she dislike you so much."
Seeing how he would not be able to get free he told her.
"When I was younger I destroyed her rice fields and killed one of her attendants. She was mad and banished me. Never really forgave me even when I gave her Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi then she went and gave it away."
Kurayami lifted him to eye level like he was a kitten and smiled.
"You two really are siblings. Oh well, what about her ex-husband?"
He frowned before he shrugged.
"Not been seen since them, who knew where that guy is. If you find him you can kill him, I won't shed a tear."
Akeno smiled and patted his head.
"He is mad for his big sister's sake. How cute."
Kurayami nodded before he dropped him
"Very cute, just what a brother should do."
Before he could complain Kurayami teleported them back home in the living room where the peaple living in the building were already hanging out. Azrael and Ares were already here and next to Azrael was Hestia looking quite adorable holding his arm.
Next to Ares were two fallen angels who were leaning on both his shoulders much to his annoyance while they breastfed the two kids.
"Ares, Azrael meet our granduncle Susanoo."
Both men glanced at the deity who stood up with pure battle intent in his eyes.
"Ares, been a while since he last crossed swords."
Ares nodded while he was about to stand up to fight him as a fellow battle junkie. Sadly the two fallen angel's on his sides grabbed his arms to hold him down. Ares was many things and he usually did one-night stands, but these fallen were not taking no for an answer.
"He is busy lord Susanoo. He is with his children and future wives."
The other who looked to be her twin nodded.
"He can fight later, now he had to pick out wedding dresses with us."
Ares grit his teeth as they had forced commitment on him. He thought it would just like usual, but fallen were not that easy to let go of. Plus, both of them had 4 pairs of wings and were a pair of sisters.
(Born from a human and a fallen.)
When Susanoo stood up and dusted himself he glanced around at the young kids and Ares.
"Wow, they forced commitment on a Greek god. How hilarious? I would laugh if it wasn't so sad. Did you drop the cheating slut already?"
Azrael glanced at Ares before he nudged him on the shoulder.
"Come on. You won out with Nissa and Ellisa here. Unlike Aphrodite, they won't cheat on you."
Both girls hugged him tighter and kissed his cheeks making him feel a little warm inside.
"Fine, I will dump her. I got better as you say."
He cackled as he wrapped his arms around both girls. As for Hestia, she smiled that her nephew had found happiness like Artemis and she had with their chosen one. She glanced up at Azrael who also smiled at her.
While that was going one of Kurayami's girls all went down from the rooms in the living room causing him and Ares to remove their glasses at the same time. Ares gave Artemis a thumbs up at getting Kurayami's eye as he put his glasses back up.
They dressed to impress and all of them were looking for his opinion. Kurayami glanced at his two friends before he left Susanoo behind.
"You can hang out with them. I will be back."
He left with Akeno and the girls where he would be forced to rate their appearance. As for Susanoo, he glanced at Azrael as they had met before as well.
"Let's fight."
Azrael and Ares would have taken his challenge if their new women were having too much joy by just relaxing with them. They were forced to refuse for now, but they could take his challenge.
