78 Chapter 78: Wake Up Call

"Akeno, Koneko, Kiba!", Rias cried out as tears fell from her eyes, she lunged forward and pulled the trio into her embrace.

The other three quickly woke up one after the other and also hugged each other, within there bliss and celebration of being alive a cold voice came from the side making the fine hair all over there body stand on end.

"Quite a relaxed group arent you, celebrating while your enemy is still standing nearby"

The group quickly got up while simultaneously retreating, their faces contorted into an unprecedented fear towards man... no monster standing opposite them.

"P-p-please don't....", Rias said beggingly while also standing in front of her peerage as if to protect them.

Alex saw the clear fear and dread on there faces, there was no longer a reason to continue with this charade, he sighed then took a deep breath.

"Relax kids, I won't hurt you"

"..."

It was clear that the group didn't believe him, their bodies were tens and they shivered in his presence. Alex couldn't blame them, what he showed them was just too real, not only could they make use of all their abilities he could as well, it was as if it all really happened and their deaths definitely didn't feel fake.

They could still feel what they felt before there deaths, that feeling of dread complete helplessness of a child facing a god, and then that cold abyss when they died, eternally dark and eternally tormenting their souls.

Scratching the back of his head Alex was in an awkward position, 'I might have overdone it', he thought as he watched the shivering teenagers.

"If I had wanted to kill you do you think you would still be standing there shivering like that, you experienced it yourself what it is like fighting me. Now I merely made you fight me in an illusion, a dream escapes if you would call it."

Silence roamed as Rias and her peerage took in what was said, mustering her courage Rias finally spoke.

"Why would you do that, what was the point?" she asked by the tone of her voice Alex could clearly tell although she was still afraid of him she resented him even more now that she knew he wouldn't harm her.

"To show you how weak you are, wats the point of your pathetic status of the little sister of one of the four great satans when you are this weak, do you really think there are no beings in this world that don't give a shit about your brother."

Rias was stumped, it was true that she was weak, but she still thought that her rank as a high-class devil and being the sister of the current great satan king Lucifer, who would be mad enough to put her to death.

"You say that but aren't you just the same, do you dare kill me?" Rias asked mockingly as she finally regained her confidence. Alex didn't kill her and she could see no reason for this other than hi being wary of her brother.

Alex chuckled at her words, he then stared at her and gave her a faint smile. Seeing that smile Rias suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. 'Retreat' he mind screamed, but it was too late, a massive pressure suddenly fell down upon her, she couldn't even resist for a moment before she was pushed down flat against the ground.

"Rias"

Her peerage yelled and quickly approached wanting to help her. But they were suddenly frozen in place they could only watch and listen but not move as their bodies refused to listen to them.

"Do you really think I won't kill you, you are nothing but a spoiled little brat, having been raised with a golden spoon in your life you waste away all the opportunity's you have been given." Alex said without emotion.

The entire group was now again scared to death and just as they were wondering what was going to happen now evrything returned to normal. Rias felt the pressure wear off from her and she slowly stood up, her hair was messy and her school uniform was rumpled.

Rias didn't dare speak all her courage was gone with the wind, she didn't even dare hate Alex anymore.

Alex stared at her for a good moment before his expression softened and he spoke gently, "I want you and your entire group to learn from this experience, train and become stronger, I am not saying do not enjoy your youth just don't waste it..." then he said sorrowfully"... Dark times lay ahead for this world", after leaving those world Alex disappeared from in front of the group, leaving them at a loss for what just happened. Rias quickly chose to contact her brother and Sona from house Sitri who could in turn contact her sister"

Meanwhile, Alex chose to go back home, there was no longer any reason for him to stay out, he had thought of doing the same thing to Sona's group but then after a while though it was unnecessary, no matter what happened she was a smart girl after all.

Stepping into the house Alex could hear the giggling of the girls, 'Oh Miki is also here?' Alex stepped into the living room to see Tosca, Aura, and Miki (Issei's mom) gossiping while enjoying freshly brewed tea and some cakes.

"Hi", Alex said as he gave half a wave at the group.

"Alex! I was wondering when you'd show up, I was just discussing the dance with Tosca and Aura, I still can't believe that good for nothing son of mine got himself a date for the dance." Miki said sipping her tea contently afterward.

"Well miracles do happen, well if you ladies would excuse me I will be turning in for the night, goodnight," Alex said before walking out as the girls bid him goodnight.

'The days are coming closer, it seems that I will have to hurry with my plan at making the world know about the Order Of Samsara, but what would be the best way to do this, the amulets worked but that way is not really achieving anything, there should be something...'

With those thoughts, Alex closed his eyes hoping he would be able to have a night without visitors for once.
