Chương 116: Ch 106 – Pure White and Void Black
Welp, we're back here Ddraig, back to the time when we last left off Universe A-1.
[So how are you going to deal with Souna and Rias? Rias is a Gremory and if you kill her, well Sirzechs is going to be really pissed off and might make us permanently leave this universe]
Don't worry, I have a simple technique called PLAYING DUMB!
So with a confident smile, I put my hand on the doorknob and turned it around, creating a click sound as the door was opened with its full glory to show Souna and Rias inside.
"H- huh? Souna-senpai? Rias-senpai? Why are you guys here?" with an oblivious face, my game plan commenced.
"Okabe-san, you're finally home!" said Souna as they both stand up from my bed leaving their butt imprints on my precious neat bed.
"Yes? But why are you guys here? How did you guys even enter my house?" I rapidly went to ask questions as they both neared me with an amicable smile.
"We just went to visit you for a bit because of your strange behavior in the afternoon, we were worried that you might have some problems going on!" said Souna as her eyes gleamed for a split second, now I could go two ways, either follow with the act and act like I've been mind-controlled, or… or, act like I am somehow immune to their mind control.
The latter option might sound dumb but from previous encounters, they know I was able to somehow evade their mind control even going as far as using eye contact to empower their subtle mind control spells.
Both have their pros and cons but the previous one is… riskier overall due to me not knowing their intentions with the mind control, to erase my memory? To make me their pawn? To make me a devil? So the latter option it is.
"Oh, I'm sorry about that. I've been having bad dreams recently and I was sleep-deprived at that time, everything even felt like a blur. So I'm totally fine, it's not like I have any mental problems or anything, I just need to fix my sleep schedule and everything should be fine," with a wry smile, I notice them getting surprised at my lack of… getting mind fuck in simple terms.
Now, this might be risky… if you were a small-brained person. So what if they think I have a Sacred Gear or part devil, their interest is still on Issei for his Sacred Gear. And besides, everything is still under my control indicated by the faint runes around the room.
"Oh… well uh, I and Rias are glad about that. So we're going on our way now! Take care of yourself Okabe-san!" said Souna as she patted me on the back and I felt the faint demonic power going towards my mind but it was simply futile and with their final attempt failing, I escorted them out of the house and onto the streets with a wave of my hand to indicate my farewell to the both of them.
And as I close the door slowly for dramatic effect, the moment it fully closed was the moment my amicable smile faded away into a sigh of relief as Ddraig started to talk once more.
[Mmm, I don't get it.] said Ddraig with full confidence.
"You don't need to know why I did that Ddraig, but I do need to take a quick shower because my hand is still in pain from that last mana beam in B-1 against the man," with a snap of my left hand, the true state of my right arm was shown full of weird vein-like marks colored black and white.
[What even is that? How were you able to connect to so many parallel realities?] asked Ddraig, begging for his curiosity to be relinquished with a douse of answers.
"It's hard to explain Ddraig, but I basically altered the formula for Interdimensional Travel to produce small portals between parallel worlds, potentially infinite even, and I channel all of that mana into my body which was pretty stupid. I'll make a tool later to help me channel that near-infinite mana, but yes, I have access to infinite mana," I muttered, and as a demonstration, a small portal appeared on the top of my palms and as I peeked inside it, it shows a view of a random forest high in the sky.
[But what were those black and white marks that appeared from nowhere?] Indeed, what were those markings that sprouted from nowhere?
And as I pass by a mirror in the bathroom, I notice little bits of white in my hair?
"Huh? What's this?" Why is my hair white? It's not the normal aging process, it's just pure white with no blemishes.
[Hmm, what's with the white hair?}
I don't know Ddraig, that's why I'm asking the same thing.
With a quick magic circle appearing in front of my eyes, I inspected the strand of white hair, and the moment I did, I felt like I was gazing into the abyss and what it shows was an endless white river floating in the void of space.
"Gag," I let out of my mouth as I almost puked from the knowledge that flooded into my mind while making myself kneel on the bathroom floor, and as I felt the tiled floor hitting my covered knee behind a sheathe of fabric, sweat trickled down my face as I slowly felt arcane knowledge entering my mind from nowhere.
[Are you okay Rintarou?!] asked Ddraig, clearly surprised at my current situation.
"I'm… I'm fine, for now," with my hand wiping away the sweat, I noticed the white strands and the weird markings on my hand going away as the pain disappeared like it was never there.
[Why did you suddenly kneel down? Did you see something with your spell?]
"Yes… it was a white river, and there was also the void where the endless white river flowed. It was hazy, but for the split second I saw it, it almost made me unconscious," with a shake of my head, I put those visions to the back of my mind to investigate later but I'm ready that I'll get nothing out of it due to how… mystical it was. As if it seemingly holds all corners of the multiverse and keeps it on a balance scale.
(A Few Minutes Later)
As I watch random Metube videos on my laptop with a bored face, I wonder how Ddraig is always asleep without doing anything at all.
"Huh? What's this?" as I click on the random notification that pops up on my screen, it shows that my father sent me a message.
"Rintarou… bla bla bla, go to the restaurant to celebrate your father's promotion. Oh yeah, dad did get a "promotion" from nowhere, well I could enjoy myself from time to time," I muttered, with a quick hop from my bed, my clothes went to rapidly change into a tight-fitting black suit with a black tie.
And with a quick mental prompt, I appeared right in front of the restaurant my father was talking about and ignored the other people who saw me teleport because fuck them, I don't care enough to use my mana and erase their memories of the recent events, they'll probably just assume they were hallucinating. Besides, I was in my vampire form so I won't appear in any videos or pictures.
With a glance around the fancy restaurant, there I saw my parents wearing their work clothes and Ren wearing his school uniform, far away from the other customers of the restaurants who wore fancy suits and dresses but eh, if you care about others too much, then you're just a bitch who always get emotionally hurt.
So with my presence lowering to do a little prank, I walk behind Ren and slowly creep my arm towards his shoulder and as they were finally directly on top of him, I swiftly put them down on his shoulders with a tight grip and visibly saw him shaking in surprise.
"Boo," I said with a teasing smile as I reverted back to half-devil instead while Ren looks at me with a smile.
"You're finally here!" said Ren as I pulled back the chair beside him and sit down on it as they seem to haven't ordered their food yet.
With the four of us finally in the restaurant, we went to order our food, and with us happily talking to each other, I tinkered around with some runes in my mind, constantly practicing my magic and science mentally to further improve my greatest weapon, my mind.
"So Rintarou, how was school today?" asked my mother as she went to eat some A5 wagyu with some rice, the typical rich people's food I guess.
"Nothing much, had a big misunderstanding with a certain club of devils and was forced to leave the universe, then went to explore more universe and a certain one holds a reincarnator who has the power to summon magical girls and I have to fight him to give freedom to his summons," I said with a straight face.
"Rintarou, I know you're still young but you should stop being so chuuni, we want to have grandchildren and at this rate, you might die alone," said my father as my mother snorted by the side.
"Yeah nii-chan, you should stop being chuuni!" said Ren with a straight face, that lying bastard, I know you're a closeted chuuni!
Just you wait, when I capture a video of you acting as a magical girl in your room, I'll show it to mom and dad the next time you act like this!
So with a grunt, I continued to eat my food while designing some random blueprints in my mind like a pair of boots that would theoretically give you the ability to jump an infinite amount of times in the air, or a love potion, or a world tree maker that would suck the vitality of a whole planet and would allow me to harness all of the mana in the whole world… I'm probably gonna do that later once I need to reach Tier 6 or 7.
But for now, I'm fixated with making Mechanical God Version 5 that will potentially allow me to kill any Ultimate Class beings and also raise the physical limit of my body because it is currently at Peak Ultimate Class which is a lot but I need to reach Super Class not just in energy, but also in body.
I already have ways on how I could raise my limit which involves becoming an Angel, a Dragon, a Youkai, etc. to basically become a chimera and potentially raise my physical limit, the physical limit is basically your potential physically speaking.
Though there are some magical ways I could go with this… like getting a new Sacred Gear along the lines that can break limits and see how that one would go.
Hey Ddraig, is there a Sacred Gear like Limit Breaker?
[Beats me, I'm not omniscient.] gee, thanks Ddraig, I know I could count on you whenever I need to.
With a quick munch on the steak in front of me, I started to form a rune with the juices of the steak to do a quick little experiment.
Meat and blood, water as the main element, twist it with metal and wood, and bam, a diagram appeared in front of me that shows how much would all of the food we ate cost, a handy divination spell made.
[You're really wasting your capabilities on stuff like that?] A waste? Excuse me Ddraig, it's not like I wasted most of my life having a feud against a white dragon like a weird love-hate relationship.
[Shut up]
So with nothing else to do, I decided to finally relax for a good while because the past few months have been pretty hectic, no set home, killing myself in another universe, killing a harem man, and more.
Though it was sad that I wasn't able to retrieve the man's body because it was obliterated, but eh, I could find a replacement for him later in another universe.
AN: This is 2037 words, you're welcome.
Well well well, well well well indeed!
So... more mystery?!
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.
