Chapter Five discovery
*Within Oryx's Throne world*
The Taken King could be seen practicing with his Power of Destruction, the devastating power that was rapidly unleased in quick and rapid succession was shaking entire worlds.
Blistering crimson energy illuminated the surrounding Darkness which encumbered the world, he stopped as he held his hands out and began to think.
There was something that was missing, he couldn't get why. But he felt like he was so close to achieving a higher level of power for his innate abilities.
So deciding to take time to think he went back to his throne as he went into deep thought, he was close. So so close, but he needed something.
There was the matter with his eyes, which quickly spread throughout the untire underworld like a raging wildfire which became dubbed as the eyes of annihilation or the eyes of destruction.
Not that he really cared what it was called, but the added fear that awoken from it was a welcome addition to the kings reputation. But forgetting about this conundrum he stood back up as he went to master his other magical abilities/magic spells.
Extending his right hand pale blue sparks of electricity were brought to creation, as he pointed towards a barn plan and let the lightning roar.
The sky darkened more then usual as the Dark realm roared, lightning flashed through the sky as there wrath was unleashed.
The massive bolts of lightning slammed into the ground as they continued to drill into the ground, digging their way through the hardened stone as they eventually met their end as they detonated.
They're pale blue light absorbed everything within its shining blue light of destruction, as everything's was burned to Ash.
Upon the explosion dying down the king examined the destruction he caused with a plead expression, as the now massive crater was a sign that his magic and power were growing.
"It would appear that even my most basic spells are now growing exponentially more powerful, I barely even put less then a percentage into that and it's caused this."
"Well I won't complain, for this is most promising although..."
An ideas suddenly came to mind, channeling that very same lightning that he used before, it sparked across his arm, charging it up to the right amount before activating his power to destruction.
Watching as the two magical energys merge together the ones blue Lightning became blood red, seeing this new form of magic he began to channel it, imagining a form at which it would be most useful for him. And only one shape came to mind a shape which has served him well in his time of ancient past.
The shape of his sword, Willbreaker he imagined it's razor sharp edge, it's massive size and weight. He imagined it's concept, he imagined it's nature and as he envisioned it the new form of magic began to respond to his will.
Forming into a massive red greatsword he held it high in the air as it began to sparkle and crack with Crimson energy.
Taking this by the handle he turned to the empty space as he twisted his body back before quickly lunging forward throwing his arm out in a horizontal motion. The magical blade responded by discharging a massive wave of lightning. The Crimson annihilation that was unleashed was unlike anything that happened prior, discharging with the roar and fury of thunder, but packing the destructive power of the power of Destruction.
(Skip about 10 seconds in, also imagine this but like twenty times larger.)
Watching this wave of crimson rolled through his throne world as it's raging fury continued to roar into the distance, oryx couldn't be more happy.
He now realized a subnature of his power of Destruction, holding his hand close to him he watched as it began to return to its basic state.
"Interesting this power, the power of Destruction it isn't limited to just the basic state it can evolve and merge with other magical energy's. Now I wonder is it because of my nature, or because of my power? Or is this just how it's always been?"
He did not know the answer but the question was spoken. Could he possibly be the only one who has discovered this? Or were there others who knew of this as well?
He didn't know for now but that wouldn't stop him, he would immediately begin to experiment with other forms of magic to see if they could combine with his power of Destruction. To possibly form even more devastating spells and techniques.
A whole new door of opportunities has been open wide for the taken King, and it's not in his nature to waste such opportunities, so with that he would study this magic, master this magic, form it into a shape which he may use against his enemies.
For he is the king of shapes, and he shall understand all shapes, even going as far as to create new shapes to use against the ones who are unfit to live in this reality.
"Fate had plans for me but I defied them, reality tried to keep me shackled in it chains but I transcended past them. Death has tried to claim me but I know use it as my tool. For this is my nature, I shall bring death upon those who stand against me. If they are unfit to challenge against me, them they are unfit to live in this universe, for those who have strength are the only ones who may stand against the testament of existence."
Activating the eyes of annihilation he turned away as he charged them up. Before going to work understanding and mastering his unique ability.
"I shall not fail again, for I do not believe I am the only being from my original universe who has been brought here. But even if that isn't true I should assume as such that it is true. For letting my guard down will only cause me more problems. It will open an opportunity for a dagger to be plunged into my back just like my sister did to me all those years ago."
With his final statement said he vanished deeper into his throne world as he began to repair it, along with continuing along with his experiments and his training. Sharpening his blade for when it will eventually rend the flesh of his next opponent.
*With serafall Leviathan*
As the king of Darkness continued to train in his throne world the Leviathan Satan was within her office working on the piles of paperwork which were built up over days of not doing them.
But as she went through, scouring through the seemingly never ending paperwork and getting what she could done as the time went by.
It felt like in eternity of doing paperwork, like over one hundred years has none by!!!
When in fact not even 29 minutes were put to this task, indicating that she isn't too fond of paperwork and is just looking for any excuse to get out of it.
"Ahhhhhhhh.... AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! THIS IS SO BORING!!!! I COULD BE WATCHING THE PRETTY GUARDIAN SAILOR MOON ANIME BUT IM STUCK DOING ALL THIS PAPERWORK!!!!"
While serafall had her small mental break down, the maids who walked passed the office nearly jumped out of there skin upon hearing the rage filled screams of serafall Leviathan. But someone they didn't expect was seen walking down the hallway, a man with bright crimson hair wearing what appears to be a suit.
The maids realized that this was Sirzechs and as such got away from him as he headed towards serafall room and opened it's door.
Only for him to have to take evasive action in order to not be hit by the flying book which just shot from the room, sweat dropping he looked inside only to see serafall rolling around on the ground whining about something as she was slamming her fist into the ground like a child throwing a temper tantrum.
"Ahhhh serafall."
"NOOOOO I DONT WWWAAANNNAA DO PAPERWORK!!!!"
"Serafall."
"PLEASE ANYTHING SATAN WHY PAPERWORK!! I COULD BE SPENDING TIME WITH MY DEAR SO-TAN, OR WATCHING SAILOR MOON BUT YOU HAVE FORSAKEN ME TO SUCH A CRUEL EXISTENCE!!!"
"SERAFALL!!!"
Jumping from her floor at the sound of the thunder is boom which echoed from the Satan's vocal cords she looked over to see the Crimson Satan himself standing in the doorway.
"Did I catch you at a bad time or-"
"No no it's good, what do you need Sirzechs-chan?"
"Well I came to ask if you seen Akuma, you see he said he was going on a walk but that was around 9:00 and it's about noon now. Grayfia is nervous, and so is the rest of the family. Know I now that Rias is here along with sora and Akeno, so I just wanted to cheek."
"Ahhh sorry Sirzechs-chan just no I haven't seen him, although I can help you search for him."
"You sure about that?" Slightly tilting himself to the side he saw the towers of paperwork she had to do. "I mean aren't you supposed to be doing-"
"I DONT WANNA!!!" Flailing her arms around like a small child she made a pouting expression as she faced him. "PLEASE SIRZECHS-CHAN!!! I WANT TO HELP FIND AKUMA-CHAN!!!"
".... Ow... Ok" he stepped to the side as the Satan shot from her room. Turning to her he watched as she ran down the hallway squealing like a joyful child. "Well then, looks like she's using this as an excuse to skip on paperwork although." Taking a look back at the towers she was facing against, "can't really blame her."
Now with all that out of the way he walked down the hallway simply following the noise of the squealing Satan, as she got her things and they Departed.
Venturing outside of the leviathan's manor they came upon three small children running around joyfully.
One was a small girl with bright red hair much like himself, with beautiful blue eyes. The other was a girl with a black bob cut and violet eyes. The the last was another small girl, with piercing violet eyes but unlike the last black haired girl, her hair was tied in a long ponytail, reaching all the way down to her legs with two strands sticking out from the top and sloping backward, with an orange ribbon keeping it in place.
These were, rias, Akeno, and Sona. All about the same age of 11.
But Rias stopped running when she noticed Sirzechs and came running to him, having a joyful smile on her face she ran to him with open arms screaming out his name before eventually leaping from the ground as the Satan caught her within his arms.
"Ow hello to you to Rias, so how's my baby sister doing at this time?"
"Ow big brother I'm doing great!! Me Akeno and Sona were all just taking about what we plan on doing in the future."
"Ow and what's that?" Gently placing her on the ground he looked down at her as he waited to hear what their dreams for the future was.
"I plan on forming the strongest preerage and when that's done I plan on becoming a rating games champion!"
"Well that's an admirable goal, well how about you Sona?"
"Well sir I want to create a school within the underworld so that all the inhabitants of the underworld can get the same treatment as us in nobility I find it unreasonable why such a thing has not happened already."
Sirzechs who heard this smiled, such a dream is exactly what the devils of the underworld need and quite frankly if her dream were to come to fruition. They could probably even use that as a base point to make even more changes to benefit the commoners who live here.
"Well Sona that's a very big dream, and hopefully that can come to fruition, after all I have a strange suspicion that if that does come true some great things are going to happen."
Sona smiled, at least someone not including her best friends agreed with her line of thinking.
"So how about you Akeno?"
"Well, sir I mainly just want to help Rias. After all I owe her my life after she saved me, but if I had to say I would just want to start a normal life with someone that I love most dear. Maybe even start a family of my own."
"That's a nice dream, it may not be as complex and grand as Sona and rias but it's simple and sweet."
"Thanks sir, that's great to hear."
"I'm glade, but now if you excuse me me and Serafall have to go."
"But why big brother?" Asked the confused Rias Gremory.
"Well Rias, you see Akuma is currently absent." Sirzechs scratched his head as he looked away slightly embarrassed. "He left about 9:00 a.m. but it's currently around noon and he's not back, our parents and Grayfia are quite worried about him."
"Wait what!! If Akuma is missing then shouldn't we help you find him!" Suggested the next heir of the Gremory family. "After all he's my nephew!"
"Alright rias you can come along." He looked over at Sona and Akeno. "How about you too will you like to help us?"
"I mean if Rias is going then I suppose I will."
"Ahhh is my sister coming along?" Ashes Sona who didn't want to deal with Serafall's consistent teasing and embarrassment of her.
"Well yes Sona after all she does care for my son as well, so she contributed herself to help find him."
Sona was conflicted on one hand she wanted to help being that this was the nephew of her best friend, on the other she really did not want to deal with her big sister. But after going through it with her mind if Akuma really was lost or if at worst kidnapped, and she didn't try to at least help she would feel terrible.
So taking in a deep breath she nodded her head, which caused Rias and Sirzechs to smile.
Serafall who was quiet up to this point let out a joyful squeal as she snatched up the young Leviathan girl rubbing her cheek against her as the girl tried to push away her sister.
"Ow So-tan!!! I knew you would help after all you such a sweet and kind girl!"
"SISTER STOP!!!"
While this all happened the trio who are not interacting with this Duo simply laughed.
Time skip, within the Gremory family forest.
Back behind the house of the gremory family decided a massive dense wilderness of trees which stretched beyond the horizon itself, this is were Akuma usually went on his strolls but he didn't go too deep into the woods as he was not allowed to by his mother.
But there were times where children do not listen and they feared that this was one of them, so the little search party consisting of Serafall, Sirzechs, Akeno, Rias and Sona went out into the woods.
Going along the path which was made they looked around for any site of Akuma, after a couple minutes of searching they came upon a point at which had two different paths.
"Ok listen up I'll take the path on the right, the rest of you go on the path to the left. And in exactly 1 hour from now we meet back up at this point."
The children along with the Leviathan Satan nodded their heads as they went on their separate ways.
"All right son we're the hell are you?"
*Within Oryx's Throne world*
The king of shapes was still experimenting but grasped a great understanding of how his power of Destruction work.
He discovered that his power had evolved more into that of a concept rather than some special clan ability. Essentially being able to merge and adapt with all things related to destruction.
He did test which were conducted with different kinds of elements to see which his powers worked best with, and the results where as he expected.
Fire, water, lightning, Frost, wind and etc, so long as the element or technique, has the ability of causing destruction. Whether it be from a small scale explosion, all the way up to a colossal scale display of might. His power of Destruction can influence it and essentially magnify its destructive capabilities.
The magnification verifies but even the most basic of spells when powered up by his power of Destruction, were squared to its normal destructive capabilities.
And when he really juiced it up the spell enhanced with the power of Destruction became at least 5 to 8 squared. Making a drastic difference, as such he decided to play with his curiosity.
If the most basic of spells were this powerful, what would happen if he used a more advanced one? One which has a higher range of destructive capabilities.
To test this he'd conjured what appears to be a small red orb on his fingertip, and began to power it up with just the power of Destruction.
He would watch as this tiny ball of energy became the size of basketball as it floated just above his fingertip, he would then notice the crackling of it wanting to be unleashed so deciding to see what it would do he summoned one of his taken.
Being brought into the throne world was a massive hulking ogre.
The mindless thrall that was the obedient slave to the will of oryx stood still as its Master stood before him with that very same ball of destructive energy.
Oryx proceeded to pointed it at the ogre as he could feel it's wanting to be unleashed and who was he to deny it?
So he let It roar! And the fruits of his labor were all but disappointing!
I gargantuan Ray of crimson consumed the entire ogre as it's being was all but erased, devoured by the beam of Destruction that was this new attack.
But he was not done he began to move his finger and with it the beam followed, cutting through anything and leaving in its wake detonations worth the force of thousands of nuclear blast!
(2:37- 2:42 for visual representation)
He stood there within awe as he witnessed the destruction that he was able to unleash, and the best part about it was this.
He didn't even use a fraction of his godly might to do this.
This was caused just by the power of Destruction itself. He didn't use none of his original power to enhance its capabilities.
"This, ahaha oh this is most joyful indeed, this power of Destruction will be my most useful tool right there next to my ability to takez speaking of which."
His hand was covered in a a blazing sinister black essence, as its darkened flames traveled along his hand.
"I think it is time that i reinforce my army of mindless thralls."
With that said he opened a cyst in the fabric of reality itself as he walked through it and returned back to the material world.
*Within the material world*
Returning to the underworld on top of a massive mountain, the king of Darkness looked down as he saw a wide range of wilderness.
Seeing all the life and peacefulness of this place the king's eyes were filled with disgust but he had a simple solution for this, lifting his hand into the air he shot from his hand a single spear of black and red flames which upon contact with the wilderness everything was consumed in a never-ending storm of fire.
The pain-filled cries of the animals who lost their lives to the flames of Destruction were nothing more than a nuisance to the king. Who upon seeing the once Life Field area reduced to nothing more than a charred barren wasteland simply left as his job was now done.
Flying through the sky as his wings carried him high, he would eventually with his enhanced eyesight spot what appeared to be a group of devils doing something mysterious.
Flying down he made sure he was silent overhearing their conversation about something to do with the old Satan faction. Upon a hearing that name the boy emerged from his hiding spot which caught the group's attention, as they turned around to see him standing there. His wings obviously retracted to not cause anything too drastic just yet.
"Sorry I couldn't help but over here that you were a part of the old Satan faction."
"Yeah and what is it to you kid, buzz off and run back to Mommy before you get hurt."
"Oh I think you're very much mistaken, you see the three of you are going to be my well.... Lab rats."
"The fuck you say ya little shit! I would like for ya to try and talk big after these flame burn you to as-"
Before he could even finish his sentence the king had already grabbed a hold of his face and slammed him into the ground, the sickening sounds of all of his bones being shattered all at once, thanks to the tremendous impact of the Kings light display of power.
Being taken completely off guard the second devil was murdered in an instant, as the king's hand shot through his chest as his hand sparked with lightning.
Now leaving the very last devil all by himself he tried running away, but the king would not let his prey get away so easily. With a sudden burst of speed it looked as if he disappeared from existence itself before the devil felt a pain like no other run through his knees.
Screaming at the top of his lungs, he collapsed onto the ground crawling on the ground like the common earthworm. Pushing himself to the side as he looked down only to see his kneecaps were gone.
"Didn't I tell you? You were going to be my lab rats and I was not taking no for an answer."
Hearing the voice of this demon the last remaining devil began to quake.
"Please please wait you don't have to do this!!" He bowed his head. "Look look we had a deal, we were only doing one job for them. We were being paid a lot of money so we were going to split it up three ways. But now they're gone we can split it evenly or how about you get 80 I get 20?"
The king came to a halt and looked down at the groveling devil, but as the devil heard him go silent he felt a spark of hope perhaps he was going to accept the-.
Without warning what felt like a foot was slammed into his spinal cord. Bending his spine into a crescent moon like shape as the king dug his heel into his spine grinding it into his flesh.
"Do you think money would be enough? I do not care for such things all I care about is your life which will soon be claimed by me."
"Y-your a monster."
"No I'm not a monster, I am a god, and yours as forsaken you."
Holding his hand out, from his arm the essence of Darkness itself engulfed the world before oryx targeted the now snuggling crying devil, as he was ripped away from the material world erased from creation itself before returning as a taken!
(Just to show you how badass his ability really is)
The now mindless slave to the voice of oryx bowed before it's creator, as the Taken King looked on at it, before sending it away to join the others.
He would then say nothing as he jumped into the air causing a mighty crater below, as he began to fly through the sky once again heading back towards his makeshift base of operations for now.
On his way back he looked into the forest and noticed his father and some other devils standing on the point of which diverges into two separate paths.
Realizing that he needs to keep his cover/make an alibi, he went down into the forest and began to walk towards their group, them hearing the movement of bushes being smacked away and fallen sticks being snapped under the weight of someone's foot. Looked in that direction only to see Akuma walking towards them.
"Son!! Ow I'm so glad to see you!!"
His father quickly rushed to him bringing him into a hug before separating as you look at his son with hardened eyes which portrayed a hint of anger.
"Now Akuma would you be so kind as to tell us why you are gone for so long?"
"Because of this." Reaching into his pocket he pulled out what was the letter from that sad excuse of a devil he killed earlier. How to get to his father he read it as his eyes widen.
"The old Satan faction! Akuma where did you get this!?"
"Well as I was going along my walk I overheard three devils talking about something, as I got closer I heard them talking about something called the old Satan faction. But when I got too close my presence was discovered they began to attack me and I easily defeated them, after all I would say that their power was no more than that of a middle-class devil. But after defeating them I try to extract information from them when their bodies were suddenly consumed with flames. If I had to guess it was probably a seal which was placed on them by their contractor to keep it a secret. That letter was all I could save."
"Big brother what's the old Satan faction?" Asked rias.
"Nothing Rias just some bad guys who do some bad things" he then turned back to his son. "Now Akuma that was very dangerous, even if they were middle class you're still a child you shouldn't be handling these kind of things you should have came for us."
"I was at least an hour and 30 minutes away from the manor, even if I were to fly I would still need about 30 minutes to get back that would have given them plenty of times to get away. I had to take action now."
Sirzechs tried to get himself to come up with some kind of reason why his son should have left, after all he didn't want his son interfering with the affairs of the old Satan faction and becoming a Target. But he understood the reasoning why he didn't try to come get them. It would have simply taken too much time and they would have been gone. But even with that it still didn't go well with his parental instincts.
But as the crimson Satan was left in his thoughts Serafall was quick to swoop in and practically bury Akuma within her bust as she squeezed him within her hug.
"OW AKUMA-CHAN!!! YOUR A HERO!!" Giggling to herself she pulled away as Akuma looked about her very displeased. "Ow don't look at me like that, you should be praised for beating such bad guys."
"You make it sound like it was difficult, and I had some kind of heroic battle with them, I literally be done without even trying."
"Ya but even so you did a great deed today, although next time that happens make sure to come and get one of us okay."
"Yeah yeah whatever."
While the magical girl devil did her thing the three children who looked on at the site were feeling different things.
Sona was wondering how in the world Akuma was dealing with her older sister and wondered if it was possible that if he could teach her a way to deal with her as well.
Rias was jealous, her nephew had so much power that it quite frankly made her feel like she wasn't worthy of her title as heir to the Gremory family, and the fact that he so effortlessly defeated these goons of this evil organization and is now practically getting praised as a hero made that feeling even stronger.
Akeno was well.... Different. Her cheeks had a red blush on them as she looked at oryx who's dark edgy nature seemed to ooze from him. It made her shiver with a feeling of fear and to her pleasure.
And after the whole ordeal with the ice Satan was over the Crimson devil came and took his son away. Akuma and Sirzechs would disappear from eyes view heading back to their family's house, as Rias and Akeno hurried up to join them.
While the leviathan sisters we're left alone.
"Serafall, you're way too clingy with him."
"What I can't help it he's too adorable!!"
"Ya Akuma Gremory, the guy who blew up and nearly killed riser Phoenix, heir to the Phoenix family and who's regeneration is said to make him immortal. With just a mere glance of his eyes of annihilation is cute?"
"Yes, yes it is. Don't worry So-tan when you get to now him you'll see for yourself how cute he really is."
Sona looked at her an had her doubts, 'ya no I think that's just you '
*Time skip, 2 hours later. Elsewhere within the underworld*
Floating high within the sky was a small petite girl with a Gothic dress, tape covering her nipples, and flowing jet black hair and cold dead gray eyes.
This girl was at the site of a massive forest fire, floating to the ground she walked through it and began to sense something.
This wasn't a natural forest fire something caused this but the more she tried to put a pin on it the more her curiosity was being led. Because deep within this energy was a sinister dark feeling, which even to her seem to creep into her heart and instill a primal fear, this was a new experience one that she thought was never able to happen.
Then as her search ended her senses picked up on something else, with that appears to be a cyst in reality itself. Flying at high speed she arrived in mere seconds, arriving at the site of two dead devils one who had all their bones pulverized, and the other with a missing heart.
But she wasn't concerned about these no no, she was concerned at what was in front of her although it was impossible to see with human eyes, her eyes could see it. Something had teared, no ripped the dimensional fabric to pieces, and created a gateway to an abyss.
This was unlike anything she's felt before even the dimensional Gap did not pale in comparison to what dark essence spilled from this tear in existence.
"What could have caused this." There was confusion in her voice although she knew of almost every being which lived in this world she could not sense what caused this. Which either meant one of two things.
The first one being of that this being moved through creation itself heading to a higher plane of existence which she could not sense, or the second and much more sinister one was that whatever this was it's power was so great that she could not sense it for she could not comprehend it.
It was definitely a frightening thought which brought on a new feeling, fear.
"The abyss has gazed into reality, whatever caused this had ripped a hole through our dimensional fabric like a piece of paper when soaked in water. Whatever was thrown through this did not return the same, I sense that this very essence had moved like it was walking. And as it did it was warping and distorting our Space as we now it."
She reach out and touch it to try and feel it's flow, but upon her touching it she was transported to somewhere she could not tell.
She couldn't feel anything, touch anything, sense anything. All of her senses but sight were cut off from her. The abyss, this abyss had to grab ahold of her.
As she looked around she noticed a figure standing in the Darkness, a young boy whose eyes blazed with a sinister crimson. Within them a bright red magical Crest could be seen, and surrounding his body was a tall monstrous demonic like figure.
This boy would stare at her, she did the same. As the two of them locked gazes with each other in the abyss, before his mouths separated as words were born from his sinister lips.
"Girl I may not know of Who You are but I will instill a warning upon you, do not meddle in my affairs for if you do I cannot promise you a safe return to the material world."
She didn't know why but her usual cold and collective nature was completely cast out the window as her body shaked silently with abstract fear.
But as if only to add to the feeling he suddenly disappeared her eyes glanced around trying to find him only to feel a soft but freezing cold hand lay upon her cheek.
And there in front of her was the boy whose eyes stared into hers, her body was all but non-responsive at this point.
"Your fear it radiates off you, I can practically taste it. Although you have a right to feel scared well within my presence, so girl I will only say this once more. Do something like this again and I promise you will not return from this abyss for you will drown here in the deep. Forever".
Disappearing once again, this time she could only briefly make out his silhouette as the darkness itself consumed his being as he disappeared into the shadows.
She would then find herself back within the material world and as such quickly stepped away from the cyst in reality, her breathing would be erratic and heavy panting even though she did not need breath.
Whatever that thing was, the girl knew only one thing.
"I have stared into the abyss, and now the abyss has stared back."
There you have it ladies and gentlemen this newest chapter is done I hope you enjoyed it because holy s*** did I have a lot of fun making it.
If you're wondering why I have done back-to-back to back to back updates on the story it's because it's a newer story and I'm trying to get it as much installments as the others, and when it's matching the same chapters as the others I will begin to update them.
So anyways with that said I really do hope you enjoyed this and you have any other questions you may ask I will give my best response to it and with that said.
DIO OUT!!!!!!!!
