Tale of Discovery

Chapter 72: Arrival



Chapter 72: Arrival

"Well, then. This is going to be our new home," I say to the girls once we've all arrived in the new mansion.

As everyone begins to look around then ask me to create things, I notice that Krul has been rather silent recently, which is unlike her.

Once I'm done with everything, I go over to the sofa she's sitting on and take a seat beside her.

"Is something wrong," I ask her.

As if just realizing that I'm beside her, Krul turns her head and stares at my eyes for a few seconds before replying,

"I'm fine. It's just that... I've been having recurring dreams."

Dreams? Don't tell me

"What are the dreams like?"

Krul takes a few moments to think before she says,

"I don't know. It's just that I know I've been having them, despite not remembering them."

Wrapping my left arm around her waist, I say to her sedately,

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be having 'visions'. They're related to our past and future."

Krul doesn't ask any further and just nods her head as she falls into state of deliberation.

This makes me wonder once again, what are we?

What are the Codes? Why do we exist? How did we come to existence?

Why is it that I'm able to create anything as long as it's known out of thin air? Thinking about my Creation, I think it's about time that I investigated about its potential.

"Your Holiness, are we not going to school?" Asia's voice resounds within my ear as she appears before me in her school uniform.

Nodding my head I say,

"Just give me a few minutes to get prepared."

Once I'm in my room I seal off the door and begin my inquiry.

Irene, am I able to create objects that don't exist in reality?

"Father should be able to do so, albeit at the cost of a huge amount of energy and perhaps restrictions on the created object."

I see. Definitely should give it a try.

Placing all of my focus on an object I had seen a movie in my past life as kid, I raise my arm and mentally aim at the air in front of me.

The next moment, I feel my Essence Energy at an incredulous rate.

However, I don't stop and continue to focus on the object that I'm conjuring, as if I succeed, it would be extremely helpful.

After a whopping two minutes, the object finally materializes in front of me, looking just the way I anticipated it to be.

Heaving a sigh of relief, I use Telekinesis as well as some nails to attach the object to the wall.

Once I'm sure it's ready to be tested, I begin with the special chant,

"Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the gayest of them all?"

As expected, right after I say so, the mirror's display begins to change from an ordinary reflection to something else.

A few seconds later, I see a clear image of a man. Red-haired and has blue-greenish eyes. His appearance kind of reminds me of Rias.

Could it be a relative of hers? Possibly. I can't tell who he is based on his looks, because you can't exactly judge a Devil's age based on their appearance.

Forget that, I need to get changed and head to school now.

---

Entering the clubroom, I find Rias and the rest already present. Do these guys not have anything better to do?

Feeling the slight hostility coming from Kiba, I turn my head to face him and ask nervelessly,

"Got anything to say, Kiba"

He responds to my words by increasing his hostility. Looks like I need to remind someone of why I'm here.

Creating Excalibur, I approach him.

"Wait, Kiba!" Rias exclaims, perplexed over what's happening.

The next moment, something interesting happens.

Kiba, who was glaring at me a few seconds ago now has a deranged look on his face as he stares at the Excalibur in my hand.

Looks like I found something interesting. However, this isn't the time for that.

As Excalibur disintegrates into particles before disappearing, I take a seat on a sofa.

"So," I begin, "Rias, I heard that some guy named Riser has appeared and is causing you trouble."

Immediately after I say that, something unexpected occurs.

Everyone in the room apart from myself turns their head to look at Koneko.

Seeing that she's feeling uncomfortable by the looks she is being given, I motion for her to come over.

Koneko gratefully trots over and sits on my lap.

"I take your actions as you not willing to let me know about this," I say while frowning.

Looking at Rias who's panicking, I decide to deal with her the way she wishes to be dealt with,

"Raynare, you are free to use more than 40% of your strength as long as you keep Rias alive."

[Yes, All-Father!]

Rias's face immediately pales as she stares at the ground.

Not willing to be biased, I say,

"Mittelt, Raynare, you are both free to use all of your power against your training partners as well."

[Affirmative, All-Father.]

[Okay, papa!]

Raising my left hand to caress Koneko's ears, I state,

"You guys will be training harder from now on. I want you to be able to beat them to a pulp in less than five minutes. Riser will be taken down by none other than myself.

"Also, you guys better not try to let on my identity to anyone there, lest you desire the extermination of all Devil-kind."

Seeing the anxiety in the eyes, I can tell that they've gotten the message.

Now, I need to wait for a week.

Fortunately, Nao and the co. will be arriving in the Rift today. I wonder what powers they'll receive

---

In the living room of my mansion, I'm sitting on the sofa all alone, waiting for the appearance of several girls out of thin air, which is exactly happens a few seconds later.

The space before me deforms as purple electric currents dance around all over the place before three humanoid figures appear.

Once everything settles down, the naked bodies of three girls are before me.

Nao, Ayumi and Misa.

As they're regaining their clarity, I create some clothing for them and avert my eyes.

Through my senses I can see that they finally realize their state as they hastily put on the clothes.

Having waited for them all to get dressed up, I turn my head around and look at them all with a bright smile on my face.

"Welcome to our new home!" I jubilantly exclaim with open arms.

The three of them all look at me, a little confused, before Ayumi all of a sudden asks,

"Brother Yu?"

Nodding my head, I say,

"It's me, Ayu."

Right after I say so, Ayumi blithely runs over into my embrace as she begins to tell me how much she missed me.

Hugging her small body I listen to everything she has to say.

After a while, I let go of her and look toward the two girls behind her.

Nao stares at me little strangely before coming over to hug me. I expect her to say she's missed me or something, but she instead says,

"You're shorter here."

Feeling the corner of my lips twitching, I respond,

"I see that you've not missed me all that much."

Nao steps back a little and says,

"No, I have missed you.

"Now, what I want to know is what have you accomplished during the time-period it took us to get here."

Oh, so you want to know what I have done, huh?

Taking this as a chance to mess with them, I confidently declare,

"I became God."
