บท 108: Ch 98 – Ddraig
With a beeping sound, Issei's body was sucked towards the ground, and out came beside me an operating table where Issei was on top of butt naked.
"So, Sacred Gears Sacred Gears, how do I take one out from a holder when it's literally in their soul," I muttered and a book appears floating in front of me that shows the studies of a certain Magician Family held in regards to the souls.
But generally, from cross-referencing tons of books, it seems like the way is just to literally yank out the Sacred Gear from the soul and in turn destroy the soul in the process which doesn't really oppose my moral compass in any way as of the present.
But if it was before I learned I can just go from one reality to another, then I would have probably first tried to safely take out a Sacred Gear without damaging the soul but eh, I'm already mentally damaged enough from realizing the bleak nature of the multiverse so fuck morals and ethics.
"Welp, good thing I have Holy Power, if not then I would have to spend some time formulating a spell to interact with the soul which should take me a few hours to make," with a snap, Holy Power went to cover my eyes along with my vision turning to one that allows me to see the souls of other creatures through their bodies and there it was, a red like aura that covered Issei's soul, quite largely actually, Issei's soul was like a baby compared to the red one.
"There we go, though I do wonder what type of Sacred Gear it is? Well, it's time to do some mind manipulation on dear little Issei," I muttered as I grab Issei's head and with a flick of a switch, Issei's mind was now fully under my control with the help of Holy Power, and aha, there it was.
"Oh? A Twice Critical? So that's a big boost for me physically when I use my Dung Beetle form," a red glove appeared on Issei's left hand the moment I controlled his body to activate his Sacred Gear.
"A Twice Critical is still pretty nice considering this will be my first Sacred Gear," without hesitation, my right hand got coated in Holy Power and transformed into an intangible form so I can interact with Issei's soul and take his Sacred Gear away from him, it is unfortunate that a pervert trash like Issei was given a Sacred Gear but oh well, it's just one of the infinite universes I'll eventually explore.
"Okay, so I just pull it out and the Sacred Gear should be taken away just like that," with my grip now grasping Issei's poor soul, I tightened my grip and pulled with all my magical might and with a metaphorical pop playing in my mind, Issei's soul was destroyed along with the Sacred Gear now bonding with mine after I hastily trap it in my soul and forcefully bind it with mine instead of letting it go back to God's System.
"Whew!" the moment the Sacred Gear got bonded to my soul, I let out a sigh of relief as a heavy weight got lifted off my chest at the success of this experiment of mine.
Not only did I become a fallen angel and gained new powers to experiment around with, but I also gained a Twice Critical that would boost my power in a pinch which is pretty useful when I have to get out of sticky situations.
"Who are you," said a deep rumbling voice out of nowhere that commands respect from its voice alone.
"Huh? A being is sealed inside the Twice Critical?" what? A puny Twice Critical holds a soul of a sealed being inside it?
"Tell me human, who are you?" said the same voice again as I sighed while rubbing my forehead at these new circumstances, I thought I would just stay all alone and not need to explain shit.
"Should I just yank this one out and let it go back to heaven?" I muttered and really contemplated on whether I should just do that or not.
"What are you saying? You know that would damage your soul right?" said the being inside the Sacred Gear as I sighed.
"Sigh, the name's Okabe Rintarou. A self-proclaimed scientist turned God, it's nice to meet you whoever you are," I said while grabbing a vial holding blue liquid which I chug down as it helps me replenish my mana.
"Oho, prideful are we? Of course, only my users should have this pride, befitting those of dragons indeed," said the being inside my Sacred Gear which surprised me for a bit, a dragon as a Twice Critical.
"A dragon you say? Eh, enough about that, you're not a Twice Critical are you?" I said and summoned out my Sacred Gear and out came the red glove that covered my left hand.
"Indeed," said the being as I tinkered around my Sacred Gear with a raised eyebrow.
"So, are you sad that I just stole you from your previous wielder?" I said while testing out the boost the Twice Critical gives me and wow, it's quite ridiculous, my mana, my physical strength, nearly everything became twice as good.
"No, in fact, I must thank you, just from the small time I was awake, the memories I received from Issei were quite deprecating," said the being as I let out a chuckle.
"No worries, but will you show your true form to me now?" I said while putting the Sacred Gear through a machine so I can inspect it more thoroughly.
"Well I must see if you are worthy enough to wield a being such as myself, so no," responded the being as I groaned in annoyance.
"Sigh, there we go with the "you must be worthy", I expected you to be better than that but eh, I can just replace you later once I go to another universe and get another version of you and just wipe out your thoughts, ego, and all that crap to gain a useful tool for myself," I said while rolling my eyes and dispelled the Sacred Gear from my arm.
"Wait wait wait, what did you say?" said the being with confusion in its voice.
"I'm saying that I can replace you with a better version of you in another reality, told you I'm God," I let out a sigh and went to grab some stuff so I can finally start making that AI chip I've been wanting to make the past few days which will speed up most of my production.
"What are you talking about? There can only be one me!" retorted the being as I just ignored its annoying voice.
"Yeah yeah, I'm so great, well surprisingly, no one is special. There is an infinite amount of you out there in the vast multiverse and I can just go grab one if I want to," I said while putting on some goggles because dealing with stuff this small is kinda hard, but Holy Power helps so much because I can use it to do something like Telekinesis and move around the miniature stuff easily enough.
"Well nobody else will be as great as the Red Dragon Emperor!" shouted the being who finally revealed their identity to me.
"HOLY SHIT! You're telling me you're the Boosted Gear?!" wow, you're telling me someone like Issei holds the Boosted Gear!
"Kukuku, it seems like you are finally understanding the greatness of mine," said Ddraig with pride flowing out of his voice.
"Well, I am indeed impressed. But I'm still gonna replace you if you don't unseal yourself now," I said and went to continue my work of making an AI chip.
"Oh, you think you can replace someone such as me? Think again foolish mortal, though I do wonder why I can't read your mind?" said Ddraig.
"Of course, you won't be able to read my mind, I've protected it already like a fortress," I said and went to insert the motherboard of the AI chip.
"But I should be able to, my soul is bounded to yours which grants me special access to your thoughts and memories," said Ddraig as I groaned.
"Beats me, but I'm gonna ignore you from now on if you don't allow me to wield your true form, and remember, I can replace you whenever I want," I said and went to insert the AI of the chip itself and I'm almost done already, sigh, if only I have the size-changing technology, it wouldn't have been this tedious to build this thing, but it's worth it the moment I input it into my mind.
"Stop with the useless threats already," responded Ddraig, and I could just see his smug face.
"If you say so, I'm still giving you one chance later so prepare to give me access to your true power, if not, say bye-bye to your life," I said and blocked off Ddraig from communicating with me, I knew it would be problematic once Dragons were involved, ugh.
With my mind now fully concentrated, I went to rapidly move the parts around with my magnified vision while I felt Ddraig trying to talk to me again but I just continue to ignore him.
If he doesn't want to cooperate, then I'll just ignore him.
But I do recall his rival Albion, is someone currently wielding Albion's Sacred Gear right now?
Well, it doesn't matter, after carefully moving around the parts, I went to grab a black liquid and poured it all over the chip because this is one of the multiple layers it will have.
With the chip now coated in a protective film, I went to cast multiple spells on it along with using Holy Power and it's finally done.
"Phew, AI chip is finally done after a few days of tedious work on making it, I really should have started with the resizing technology instead, but eh," I muttered and went to straight-up rip open my head and skull along my forehead and didn't feel an ounce of pain and after putting the chip near my open brain, it shot out automatically and went to the deepest part of my brain and I felt tiny little needles prickling into my brain.
And just like that, my whole vision changed as floating windows similar to that of a game filled my whole view.
"Phew, it did work, I was worrying it wouldn't and have to rebuild it all over again and change many parts," I said while letting out a sigh of relief and now that this is done, I have nothing left to do in this universe.
I'll leave the task of becoming a devil later but the only thing left is to shrink my lab and everything is actually done.
"Finally, I could take out these stupid contact lenses," with a poke to my eye, I felt the tip of my fingers touching the contact lenses and took them out without any problem.
"So Ddraig, if you still don't give me access to the Boosted Gear once we go to another reality, I'll a 100% replace you with another," I said and the lab soon shrink down that I can even keep it in my pockets and saw that I was in the middle of a random forest.
"You dare block the mighty Red Dragon Emperor! Expect that you'll only receive my true power in a thousand years!" shouted Ddraig like a young master from cultivation novels.
"Yeah yeah, just watch the show and enjoy," I said and with a snap, mana exploded from my body as mana started to encase us with a magic circle appearing above my head with chaotic black and white color.
"Oh, it does work, neat," I said as its glow became brighter and soon, I slowly felt the fabrics of space-time being bent by the spell I was casting.
"Oh, wielding space-time magic? That's unexpected," said Ddraig as I just ignored him and continued the spell process.
As the spell continued its course, I threw something to the ground, and out came a clone of me from the ground up along with a note on the ground for it to read, it's a clone of me who has a mind that can potentially find a cure to cancer, treat it as an act of good for killing the Rintarou of this world, and with that done, I finally finished casting the spell.
And as we were about to be transported. "Don't blame me if you're worldview gets shattered," I said with an ominous smile, and with a flick, everything went to black.
AN: This is 2132 words, you're welcome.
The Sword of Damocles hangs above each and everyone one of you with its ever present threat of despair, so send me some power stones with your power of friendship and save the thousands perhaps even millions to come who will read this masterpiece immortalized in the tunnels of time.
