Chapter 114: Taking Them to TSSDK

"Buchou..."

"Kiba." Zaydas interrupted the eager boy: "Didn't I say this before? The goal of all this is us. So don't worry, the one you want revenge on will also show up. You just need to sit and wait."

"I..."

"I'll say this now." Zaydas said: "Don't think about acting alone in search of revenge. Just wait your turn, I promise you'll be able to avenge your friends."

"That... Sigh, I understand." Kiba finally gave up.

He seemed to feel that all his actions were being calculated by Zaydas even before he did anything.

Even Rias was surprised by this, since although she knows him and should understand him better than Zaydas, she didn't foresee Kiba moving on his own in search of revenge.

"Zay-kun, should we tell your parents?" Rias asked.

"No need." Zaydas said casually.

"Ara? How confident are you?" Akeno asked.

"Not much, just a 99% chance of killing Kokabiel and 1% chance he manages to escape." Zaydas replied.

Of course, he knew about Azazel's presence in the city. He could feel his presence from kilometers away—even when concealed, it couldn't escape his expanded senses.

'As long as Azazel doesn't appear personally, not even Vali can stop me.'

He then looked at Shizue. If it's her, even if Azazel shows up, she can hold him off without losing.

However, he didn't want to force her to act. If Grayfia wasn't pregnant, he could also count on her.

But... Knowing Azazel's character, he'll probably send Vali. If he personally shows up, things would get even more complicated.

Either way, it wasn't a bad idea to prepare a little.

That's why he intended to bring Shion.

"Zay-kun... About Diodora Astaroth." Rias asked: "Is everything you said true?"

"Yes, I discovered that recently." Zaydas explained: "I was waiting for the right moment to act and, judging by his past actions, I don't believe he gave up on Asia. But the moment he appears in front of me, I will kill him."

"But, he's part of the Astaroth Clan, that..."

Interrupting her, Zaydas said: "Rias-nee. It seems you really don't know me very well. Do you really think that just because he's part of the Astaroth Clan and is the heir to the clan, I wouldn't dare kill him?"

His intrigued smile as he looked at her caught Rias by surprise, especially after hearing what he said.

After thinking for a bit, she couldn't imagine a scenario where Zaydas would sit quietly while Diodora acted freely, trying to steal Asia from him. Especially imagining the disgusting things he planned for Asia.

"And if Ajuka Beelzebub decides to act against you because of him?" Rias asked.

"That won't happen." Zaydas replied.

'Even if it does, I don't care if he's my father's friend—I'll hide in another dimension until I'm stronger and I'll kill him when I return.' Zaydas said in his heart, resolutely.

Rias, who didn't understand where all of Zaydas' confidence came from, remained silent while sighing. She only prayed he wouldn't act recklessly and become Ajuka's enemy.

On the other hand, Asia, who heard this, was deeply moved.

'Great Sage, what are the risks of taking Grayfia-nee with me to the TSSDK Dimension?'

[Answering. If it's just going there, zero risk. Even if Master names her, there will be no risk to her or even to the baby forming in her womb.]

The Great Sage's response brought great relief to him.

Knowing that was enough for him to make a decision. Soon, he called all the girls to his room.

This time, his intention was even to bring Ravel with him.

Minutes later, they were all in his room.

Or almost everyone. Shuri went to stay with Akeno. But that was something Zaydas had already foreseen from miles away, so it was no surprise.

"Ravel, what I'm about to tell you is a big secret. Can I trust you to keep this secret?" Zaydas looked at her.

Nodding firmly, Ravel said, "Yes, you can!"

When her eyes locked onto his, Zaydas knew she wasn't lying. He had an ability that allowed him to see through lies.

Having her confirmation, Zaydas began to explain about another 'universe' and how he intended to take all of them there, even how it could strengthen her.

It could be said that this was also a test for her. Although if this leaked, it would be a bit annoying—but not too much.

At most, he would cut any ties he had with Ravel, while the actual damage would be close to zero.

Since using [Dimensional Jump] with such a large group was more difficult, he relied on the help of the Great Sage for a safer transition.

In the blink of an eye, everyone was enveloped by his aura and 'jumped between dimensions.'

Because of the number of people he brought with him, more than half of Zaydas' power was spent—but that was only his Demonic Power.

At the same time, Grayfia and Ravel were petrified. It was clear they were receiving blessings from the 'Voice of the World.'

Shuna and the others were already familiar with the situation and weren't surprised. Shuna went off with Jade toward their factory. Shion stayed behind Zaydas, and the rest went out to check on Zaydas' plantation.

If their estimate was correct, it should already be bearing fruit, and it was time to harvest.

Meanwhile, Grayfia heard the 'Voice of the World' directly in her head.

[Confirming.]

[Unique Skill: Unshakable Heart...]

[Successful acquisition!]

[Confirming.]

[Unique Skill: Protector...]

[Successful acquisition!]

[Confirming.]

[Unique Skill: Discipline...]

[Successful acquisition!]

[Confirming.]

[Unique Skill: Legendary Maid...]

[Successful acquisition!]

A total of 4 unique skills. Not to mention the enhancement she received and validation of her demonic abilities.

The same happened with Ravel and her demonic abilities. Furthermore... She also heard the 'Voice of the World' saying:

[Confirming.]

[Extra Skill: Golden Flames...]

[Successful acquisition!]

[Confirming.]

[Unique Skill: Rebirth from the Ashes...]

[Successful acquisition!]

[Confirming.]

[Unique Skill: Submission...]

[Successful acquisition!]

When Zaydas heard the report of their skills, he smiled: "Impressive~"

Ravel puffed out her chest, feeling proud.

Grayfia seemed indifferent, but inevitably a faint smile curved her lips, showing she wasn't as indifferent as she appeared.

The truth was that both she and Ravel received very good abilities. Grayfia in particular was more than surprised. Not to mention Ravel—she felt she was very close to becoming a true phoenix.

Although the unique skill [Rebirth from the Ashes] could only be used once a month, it was capable of protecting her soul. In other words, as long as she didn't die twice in the same month, she was practically immortal.

And another thing... The skill [Submission] shouldn't be underestimated. In her heart, as long as she submits to someone, she is actually able to gain a proportional percentage of the power the person she submitted to possesses.

That is, if she submits to Zaydas, she would gain a percentage of his equivalent power—not taking his power itself.

Because of that, she was radiant and didn't mind the strange looks she received.
