In the peace treaty of three factions, there would be always some parties who were dissatisfied with it such as an Old Satan Faction, some people in the Fallen Angel, and even some faction in Heaven.
Everyone thought the Heaven faction probably was the party with the highest will for peace, but some of them were quite dissatisfied with this treaty since with this treaty they would unable to slay their enemy such as this group.
Yuuki had heard that there was some a rebel inside the Exorcist group which was being led by 2nd, 3rd, and 4th highest rank within the church, but he didn't expect them to come to Tokyo. He didn't know why they were coming to this place, but he didn't intend to meet them since he didn't want a troublesome thing to arrive at his place.
---
The group of exorcists who came to this town wanted to meet Yuuki, but when they entered this town, they felt that they had gotten lost and when they moved around they had come back to their first spot again.
"..."
They tried to do it again, but they came back once again.
"Let's just give up and go to Kuoh."
Everyone nodded since their purpose came to this country wasn't to meet him and it was because they wanted to settle something with the group of young Devils.
---
Haru knew that the group of the Exorcists had gone and such a group of people who wore exorcist's uniforms and a huge robe that covered their bodies would bring a lot of attention to themselves. He only shook his head and went to the underground of his house where both Akane and Rosswesse were doing their research.
Akane and Rossweisse who were in the underground were doing research about a seal.
But it wasn't a normal seal, rather it was a seal that would be used to seal 666.
Akane and Rossweisse were very smart and known as genius magicians in this generation.
Both of them had made a hypothesis that it was possible to seal the disaster monster which was known as 666, but it needed a long time to do it.
Makoto was also on the underground to help them.
When Haru entered the underground while bringing a snack, everyone stopped and gathered together having a short break.
"Do you need help?" Yuuki asked.
"You're not a magician and adding one person to this research will cause chaos," Akane said without mercy.
The magic of Yuuki and normal magicians are different since normal magicians will use a calculation to create magic, but Yuuki's magic is similar to a demon power using his imagination to create the thing that he wants.
"Is something happening again?" Rossweise asked.
They were quite startled when Heaven had been attacked by Qlippoth, but sighed in relief when no one got hurt from that incident.
The power of Rias's peerage was stronger than in the original story since Akeno, Koneko, Asia, and Xenovia got help from Yuuki making them become stronger.
For Issei, who was the actual main character, his strength had always been very dubious, sometimes weak, sometimes strong. In conclusion, his power was full of uncertainty.
It was better to trust the four of them along with Kiba and Gasper since their strength had always been very stable.
Yuuki nodded and said, "There's been a group of exorcists before, but I won't let them come here."
"Group of an exorcist?"
"Remember what Sona has told us before?" Yuuki said.
Makoto thought for a while and said, "If I'm not wrong, there should be a rebel in the church that doesn't accept the peace treaty in the supernatural world." She was quite confused and asked, "Why are they going to rebel? Isn't it good to be in peace?"
"While in peace, they can't slay the devil or vampire," Yuuki said.
"Is that something bad?" Makoto asked.
"If there is no hatred or grudge, then it doesn't really matter, but when they really hate each other then they'll be dissatisfied," Yuuki said.
"Why do they have hatred or grudges?" Makoto asked.
"I'm not sure, it might be their family had been killed or something by a group of Devil or Vampire in the past," Yuuki said. "If that really happened to him, then he wouldn't even care about the peace treaty, but who made them a servant of Heaven which was known as their benevolent and peace-loving.
Yuuki thought that since they had become an exorcist then they shouldn't let hate or grudge blind them.
If they couldn't control it then they shouldn't join the church in the first place and better to join the underworld gang or something since it was lawless.
"So what are they going to do?" Rossweisse asked.
"I'm not sure, but from what I can tell that they might try to challenge the group of the devil or something in Kuoh," Yuuki said.
"Is that alright? You're not going to stop them?" Rossweisse asked.
"Why stop them? It's just a small friction fight, and I don't think that Rias and everyone will be defeated by a group of exorcists," Yuuki said.
They thought for a while and nodded since they knew very well how strong everyone in the DxD group.
"Where is Ophis?" Yuuki asked.
"She has said that she has something to do or something," Makoto said.
Ophis had usually stayed at his home after the Christmas party and everyone also loved her with the appearance of a little girl making this house become livelier. She usually played with the small mandrake which was planted by Makoto.
It was at this moment that he received a call from Kuroka.
"Yuuki, come to the Hanging Garden!" Kuroka said.
"I'll go there."
Yuuki didn't know what Kuroka wanted, but he could tell that she was in a hurry or something. He kissed Rossweisse and told her that he would go to the Hanging Garden of Babylon.
"Let me know if something is happening," Rossweisse said.
Yuuki nodded but told her to not worry too much before teleporting to the Hanging Garden of Babylon.
Arriving in the Hanging Garden of Babylon, there were two guests who had appeared inside this place.
"Oh-ho, so this is the one which is known as the strongest human."
The one who had said it was the former of Dragon King, Tannin.
fifteen meters tall, gigantic western Dragon, and while also standing using two of his legs.
Tannin was looking at Yuuki curiously since it was his first time seeing such a strong human.
"Yo, Crom."
Yuuki greeted someone that he was familiar with in the past.
"Let's have a duel," Crom Cruach said.
Crom Cruach was the dragon that Yuuki had met in the past and fought for a while. He didn't show his dragon appearance, but only using his human appearance.
"I'm busy, maybe next time," Yuuki said.
"Ok." Crom Cruach nodded.
"...."
Tannin was surprised by their interaction.
"What's wrong? Did you call me because both of them come to this place?" Yuuki said.
"That's right, nyaa! They wanted to entrust something to Ophis," Kuroka said.
"Entrust something?" Yuuki was curious while looking at Tannin.
Tannin smiled and showed them an egg. "This is an egg from Spectre Dragon. It has been a while since such a rare thing was born to this world, and I want you to take care of this egg for me."
"Why?" Vali asked. He didn't really understand why Tannin wanted to leave this egg to them.
"Because the air in the underworld is not suited for hatching the egg, and you guys are the only ones who are strong enough to protect it," Tannin said.
"...."
They looked at each other then noticed Ophis who looked at the egg curiously.
Tannin looked at the inside of the Hanging Garden of Babylon and asked, "Did you build this flying fortress yourself?" He looked at Yuuki in surprise since he knew that this flying fortress was very powerful.
"Yes."
Yuuki nodded in response. He looked at Ophis and asked, "Ophis, do you want to take care of this egg?"
Ophis looked at Yuuki and nodded. He was hugging the egg carefully showing that she would take care of this egg herself.
"..."
Everyone looked at each other since it might be the first time they saw Ophis to show what she wanted to do.
They looked at each other and weren't sure what to do for a while. Then they looked at Yuuki for some reason.
"Well, just keep it if you want it," Yuuki said.
Ophis was expressionless, but for some people, they could see that she was really happy with her body language.
"But is it alright to keep it here since we have often gone out," Arthur said.
They knew what Arthur meant and that was they were too worried to leave the dragon egg to Ophis.
"If it's in Asia then it's good," Yuuki said.
"Why do you need to mention Asia-Chan here, nyaa?" Kuroka asked.
"Because she is a very talented dragon tamer," Yuuki said.
Tannin nodded and said, "I have also heard that beautiful young girl who has even tamed Fafnir and other Evil Dragons who have been reincarnated by Qlippoth."
After the attack of Auros, there were a lot of Evil Dragons who had gathered around Asia and all of them started to become closer to her as if they wanted her to tame her.
Yuuki was also surprised at that time, but when he thought that this girl was the girl who had tamed one of the Five Dragon Kings, Fafnir. He didn't think much and thought that everything was possible.
Ophis who heard their conversation thought that she might not have a chance to take care of this egg and showed a bit of distress. Even though she was expressionless, her body was slightly hung and felt confused about whether she should place or take the egg.
Everyone who saw Ophis couldn't handle seeing Ophis have such a reaction and even Vali who usually only cared about a fight was also quite troubled to see Ophis have such a reaction.
"You can take care of the egg," Tannin hurriedly said since he didn't expect for Ophis to love it that much.
Ophis nodded and sat down on Yuuki's lap while bringing the dragon egg. Her head turned upturn then looked at him for a long time.
Stare!
Ophis kept staring at Yuuki without saying anything.
Yuuki sighed and patted Ophis's head. "If you're worried about the dragon then take it to my house since my place is very safe."
Not that he was arrogant, but his barrier was strong and its defensive system might be among the strongest in the supernatural world. It also used emotion detection to detect its enemy as long as someone showed hostility, anger, and every negative emotion then they would disappear.
If someone is strong enough then they might be able to hold on for a while and use that chance to run away, but if that someone is as strong as Sirzech or one of the top 10 strongest beings in the world then this barrier could buy him time to come back.
Ophis nodded and hugged the dragon egg.
"......."
Everyone didn't know why but when they saw Ophis who was hugging this dragon egg, they felt that their heart turned very peaceful and wanted to hug her for some reason.
"Let me hug you, nyaa!" Kuroka said.
"M - Me too!" Le Fay said and walked toward Ophis.
Jeanne also walked toward them since she wanted to tease this cute dragon.
Walburga, the newest member, also joined in.
Arthur, Bikou, and Vali decided not to do anything since it wasn't their style to hug someone.
Yuuki brought Ophis along with the egg to his house, but suddenly he received another call and this time it was from Rias who told him that the group of exorcists had come to her city to challenge them.
