Kapitel 2: 2.
Previously, Sung Jin-Woo obtained an item 'Ring Of Dimensional Jump' through his system, and now he's travelling worlds to face stronger beings, friends and foes. The first world he got into is the 'Draconic Deus (DXD) Realm' where he faces Deities, Angels, Devils and Dragons ! But how will he fare in the unfamiliar territory ? Find out next >
~
It has been a couple of days since Jin-Woo arrived in this Dimension. His sole motive was to level up as quick as possible and upgrade his >Shadow Exchange< skill to >Shadow Bridge< so as to return home ASAP. But he had no success in finding his prey 'Kokabiel', who was one of the quests he needed to finish. Jin-Woo had spread and commanded his shadows to inform him about any knowledge on the quest related things but to no positive outcome. What he did learn was that the entire Kuoh town was practically owned by a certain 'Gremory' family. They had monopoly on every businesses, houses, healthcare etc. Jin-Woo thought 'Gremory ? Aren't they some kind of a Royal Clan from The Underworld ? They might prove to be useful. One of their member is admitted in Kuoh Academy. Let's begin there.' Jin-Woo plants shadows in Kuoh Academy & subsequently in the Occult Research Club (ORC) room. He plans to confront them and get done with the quest ASAP.
Next day, as Jin-Woo is observing the ORC room, two girls enter, one with waist length red hair & other with long Kunoichi hair. He listens to their conversation and learns that the red haired girl is the heir of Gremory clan, Rias. Other girl is her best friend, Akeno Himejima, whose father happens to be a fallen angel. 'She might be able to help me find this Kokabiel.' Jin-Woo thought and got ready to confront them. But then he heard Rias saying how she wants to 'help' a boy named Issei, who possesses a sacred gear. Jin-Woo didn't really like the way they intended to 'help' him as Issei had to die in the process. Though angered, Jin-Woo kept his calm & decided to join the Kuoh Academy to uncover the truth.
Next Day ~
A teacher enters the classroom that Rias & Akeno were in. He introduces the class to a new foreign exchange student from Korea. Needless to say it was Jin-Woo. Using his shape-shifting magic, he had turned into a teen boy. Also, he had used his convenient mind control magic on the teacher to enroll him in the academy.
"Class, this will be your new classmate. You can now introduce yourselves." The teacher said.
"Hello, I'm Seong Jin-Woo & I'm from Seoul. Please take care of me for time being." Jin-Woo said to the class.
Though the introduction was plain, the girls were head over heels for Jin-Woo. He thought 'Do the girls in this class have a problem with Korean boys.' {A/N : Jin-Woo will retain his 'dense guy' trait, just saying.}
"Wow.. are all Koreans so handsome ?!"
"I wonder if he's single." {A/N : He's NOT ! Begone THOT !}
"Ne~Ne~ Can I call you Oppa ?"
The girls were already head over heels for him & surrounding Jin-Woo while the boys grit their teeth & had an urge to vomit blood.
The teacher calmed everyone down & asked them to get along with Jin-Woo, to which the girls nodded fervently & the boys 'tch'-ed. Of course, both Rias & Akeno looked at him for a moment & turned their eyes around. Obviously, the only thing they were interested in were beings with Sacred Gear. Jin-Woo had already suppressed his power so as to not be suspicious & the plan worked smoothly.
All this time, Jin-Woo closely observed the ORC members. He also noticed that Rias & Akeno talked with a glasses girl, Sona Sitri, and found out that she was a devil too. Jin-Woo thought that maybe the devils had infiltrated into the human society way too much & this wasn't a good news. The devils he knew weren't particularly decent beings and thus they had a bad rep in Jin-Woo's mind. Not like he discriminated. For him, all he cared about was character of the individual despite their race or appearance. While in thought, he remembered Esil from 'Radish' clan. He smiled and thought, 'Yeah, she was kinda clumsy character. I wonder how she's doing.' The girls in the class saw him and had hearts in their eyes. "Kyaa~ he's so handsome." "Maybe I should approach him." "Is he single ?" "Is he looking at us ?" {A/N : LoL, Nope.} The girls started gossiping while the boys were staring daggers at Jin-Woo.
The lectures went well and the school-bell rang signalling end of today's lectures. When the school ended, he followed one of the ORC member, Kiba, who was stalking Issei. He watched the whole show how a fallen angel, Raynare, killed Issei & then he was revived by Rias. Raynare somehow manages to escape. Jin-Woo didn't forget to plant a shadow with the escaping fallen angel. For now, he decides to deal with the psycho redhead woman who let an innocent die. He appears in front of them through the bushes like a cliché anti-hero.
Rias' group is shocked and goes on alert as Jin-Woo appears out of nowhere. They begin to surround him.
"Exchange student ? What were you doing here ?" Kiba asked Jin-Woo, who stayed silent.
"Restrain him and use hypnosis magic to alter his memories." Rias says as she turns around to leave.
Kiba, Koneko and Akeno attempt to restrain him. But Jin-Woo releases his 'Bloodlust' towards the three of them. All three of them are rendered immobile from pure fear, while Jin-Woo didn't evwn need to lift his finger.
Rias was startled but asked Jin-Woo, "Who are you really ?"
Jin-Woo says, "You're not really in a position to question me."
Rias approached Jin-Woo at quick speed in an attempt to kick him but Jin-Woo dodged & punched Rias in the face sending her flying.
"How could you do this to a girl ?" Rias asked.
Jin-Woo retorted, "You have no right to say this after watching an innocent die helplessly."
Rias stays silent for sometime then asked, "You seem to be human yet you're so strong. I don't sense any sacred gear from you either. Who-No, What are you ?"
"I'm a human as you can see. And since I've answered your question, its my turn asking now." Jin-Woo said.
By now, Rias' group had regained their composure. Koneko pounced at him thrusting a punch while Kiba ran towards him with his sword. Jin-Woo caught Koneko's punch with one hand and punched her gut with the other. Then he caught Kiba's sword with bare hand & punched towards Kiba. Kiba blocked his punch while holding his sword horizontally, but was sent flying due to sheer strength. All of Rias' peerage was thrashed miserably and they all laid on the ground whimpering and growling.
Jin-Woo said "I plan to find a certain 'Kokabiel' guy. And I want info on him. I have no complications with you kids and if you got any knowledge on where to find this guy, do tell me."
Everyone was shocked that a stranger, but more a human, had knowledge about supernatural affairs. But then again, they all held a poker face as a young boy had the temerity to call them kids.
"Now!" Jin-Woo said in an irritated tone.
Rias approached him and said, "I don't know, but my brother has contacts back home. He may know stuff. Are you able to meet him tomorrow ?"
"Hmm. Sure. After lectures, in your meet room." Jin-Woo said as he vanished using shadow exchange, leaving behind people with their mouths agape.
"He's dangerous. As dangerous as my brother atleast. Moreover he's after Kokabiel, which must mean he's confident in defeating him." Rias said while her peerage agreed.

Next Day, ORC room, Kuoh Acadamy.
A male in business suit sat in the chair. He had crimson hair and beautiful facial features. He was Sirzechs Lucifer, one of the Four Great Maou's and Rias' elder brother. Beside him stood a maid-like figure with silver hair. It was Grayfia Lucifuge. All of Rias' peerage was also present. They were gossiping among themselves. It seemed Issei had been updated about his current situation & he was constantly chatting with his sacred gear - the Red Dragon Emperor's gauntlet and a True Longinus !
Just then, they heard a knock on the door. The door opened and Jin-Woo entered. He came and sat before Sirzechs, ignoring the kids. Rias started b̶i̶t̶c̶h̶i̶n̶g̶ complaining about how Jin-Woo thrashed all of her peerage without even answering her.
Everyone was calm, except Sirzechs and Grayfia. They sensed a great amount of danger from him. Jin-Woo deliberately leaked some of his aura, just enough to gain the superiority in the discussion.
"Ah the exchange student. Go ahead. Ask what do you want." {Sirzechs}
"I want any kind of tips on this Kokabiel guy. His whereabouts would be suffice." Jin-Woo told Sirzechs.
"And why would I tell you that." {Sirzechs}
"Because your sister and her friends are here alive after what they did to that boy." Jin-Woo retorted.
Sirzechs frowned and asked Rias what she did. Jin-Woo told how she let Issei die just to ressurect him as her pawn. Sirzechs was really annoyed at his sister & bowed towards Issei to ask his forgiveness. Jin-Woo sensed sincerity from him & told him he needs to find Kokabiel to neutralize him.
"Kokabiel is a fallen angel, and recently he's been acting suspicious. He's been in contact with the Church guys lately. Pretty sure he's upto no good. Though his current location is unknown. I can send people to search for him in underworld & get back to you." Sirzechs said as he got up to shake Jin-Woo's hand. Jin-Woo nodded and returned the courtesy.
Just when Sirzechs was about to leave, Jin-Woo asked, "Oh..while you're at it, do you know about Trihexa's whereabouts ?"
Now Sirzechs & Grayfia were on full alert. They forcefully teleported Jin-Woo to a faraway unpopulated location.
"What are your intentions ? Speak !" Grayfia asked while getting in an offensive posture.
"I need to seal or kill it." Jin-Woo replied honestly.
"To kill or seal it, you should be qualified to do so. Haaahhhhh" Sirzechs said as he attacked Jin-Woo with brute force, with no intention of fataly wounding him.
All of his enthusiasm drained down when Jin-Woo caught his fist & kicked him in the gut making him go high up & come crashing down.
Sirzechs Lucifer, one of the Four Great Maou's, who was known for his raw strength was beaten down by a mere human. Grayfia attacked Jin-Woo with magic attacks. {A/N : Imagine energy spheres.} Jin-Woo charged in her direction while cancelling her attacks with his hand chops. He then punched the ground in front of her making her lose her balance and fall.
Sirzechs tries to get up and attack Jin-Woo but Jin-Woo uses 'Ruler's Authority' to slam him down on the ground. Everything happened in a matter of minutes and both Sirzechs and Grayfia were handled effortlessly by Jin-Woo. Both of them conclude : 'He's far far more dangerous than expected. Atleast on par with Ophis & The Great Red'. They shudder at the thought that the teen boy in front of them is atleast an 'Omega Class' being. But then again, this world is a strange place.
"*sigh* Trihexa is currently sealed in an unknown location. So you don't need to worry." Sirzechs tells Jin-Woo.
'What ? So is there an error in the system ? No that's impossible. Maybe Trihexa will escape or someone will unseal it. That may take years & I don't have time. Should I unseal him instead ?' Jin-Woo thought as he was worried about his family back in his dimension.
"Please don't do anything reckless." Sirzechs pleaded to Jin-Woo.
Jin-Woo ignored him & said, "Give me money. The more, the better." Jin-Woo told Sirzechs.
"Huh? Oh...Ok... here's my card. Pin is 0666. Use as much you want." Sirzechs said.
"Don't mind if I do." Jin-Woo said with a poker face.
'What the hell. First you beat the hell out of us and then you extort money from us. Are our status and powers just for decorations?' Grayfia & Sirzechs thought and had an urge to vomit blood.
"I must warn you not to do anything reckless. Trihexa is an ancient apocalyptic beast, which must not be let loose." Sirzechs warned Jin-Woo one last time before teleporting away. Jin-Woo didn't forget to plant a shadow with Sirzechs which went unnoticed by him.
"I can feel connection with my shadow. That guy just teleported into a different realm. Should I visit the underworld ? Hmm...Let's Go !" Jin-Woo mumbled as he felt connection with the shadow appearing in the underworld.
'Shadow Exchange.'

Side Story ~
Existing Timeline.
Sung Jin-Woo had defeated the Monarchs and their armies in the different dimension and returned to his childhood days. This caused the 'erasure' of that timeline. He had lost & gained many things in that timeline. He had some contentment and many regrets. One of them was death of his loved ones, especially Chairman of the Hunters Association, Go Gun-Hee. Jin-Woo knew that Go Gun-Hee suffered sickness even before he became a hunter.
'I won't let my friends suffer in this life. Never again.' Jin-Woo thought to himself.
One day, he visited the 'Go Enterprise' while deciding to meet its Chairman, Go Gun-Hee. The Chairman was known to be a great person who had spent his life doing various charity work. Not only social work, he believed the fate of humanity depended on the young folks. Therefore, he constructed many schools and colleges as a charity.
Right now, Go Gun-Hee was sitting in his office in front of a huge pile of paperwork & files.
"*sigh* That's all the work for today I guess." Chairman Go mumbled as he closed his eyes to get some rest.
Suddenly, a breeze blew by and Chairman Go finds a teen boy sitting in front of his desk. At first he was startled, but decided to ask the boy, "Hello, kid. Did you lose your wa..."
"Pardon the interruption, but I didn't lose my way, Sir. I'm in the right place. I know you suffer from a lethat illness and I have a cure for it. Are you willing to trust me ?" Jin-Woo asked as he summoned the elixir vial in his hands.
"O..Oh...who are you ?" Go Gun-Hee asked him.
The next thing the chaiman knew he was knocked out unconscious. Jin-Woo carefully fed the 'Holy Water Of Life' elixir to Chairman Go Gun-Hee. Soon, the chairman began to breath steadily and his body regained muscles as if he was younger again. His face also flushed with red as if life returned to him. Sometime later, Chairman Go opened his eyes and he saw the young man sitting in front of him in the same position as before. But more than that, he felt as if he was never sick. He doubted if he's regained his youth through some witchcraft.
"Young Man, I don't know what you did, but thank you." {Chairman Go}
He had tears in his eyes as he had suffered all his life but the heavens were benign for once. He thanked Jin-Woo again and again. They gossiped for some time but not once did Go Gun-Hee ask Jin-Woo about the cure as he understood that everyone has their secrets. Jin-Woo was also glad about Go Gun-Hee's thoughtfulness but more so about his friend being healthy and alive. Sometime later, Jin-Woo left as Go Gun-Hee thanked him with a bow.
'I always knew the young one's were capable of miracles.' Chairman Go thought with a satisfied smile.
Since then, Jin-Woo had (re)gained his important 'father figure' friend & had one less regret in his heart.
