Chapter 4

Gorou stood there next to Issei, talking to his hand, if anyone saw him they would think he was crazy, hell, Gorou thinks he's crazy right now.

"I know that you are there Red Dragon Emperor." Gorou declared as he started into Issei's hand like he was staring into a pair of eyes.

A circle on Issei's left have begun to glow a bright green.

"What do you want human?" A voice rang out through the room.

"I simply seek your help and wisdom," Gorou said as he sat next to Issei's hand.

It took a while to get a response as if the dragon was thinking about something.

"How does a human with no magic or any supernatural power know that I exist in his son?" The voice asked suspicions about the Gorou.

Gorou didn't think this far ahead, he was beating himself up in his head until an idea popped into his head.

"I was told." Gorou proclaimed.

"You were told?" The dragon didn't believe a word from Gorou's mouth.

"Yes, by the Gremory family, by their eldest daughter, Rias," Gorou said fully believing his plan would work.

"Hmm... I am aware of the Gremory family, but why would they tell you about me?"

"I ran into Rias a few days ago and since I am friends with her brother, she told me about her plans with my son out of respect for our relationship," Gorou said with a smile, though it still slightly hurt.

"That does seem plausible, but why would you seek my help if you have the Gremory's help?"

Gorou scoffed before speaking.

"It is true that the Gremory household is indeed a high power within devil society, along with the fact that their eldest is one of the Four Great Satans, but how could they hold a candle to your wisdom and power?" Gorou praised the dragon, trying to coerce it.

"I believe you." The dragon knew his plot, trying to praise him.

"As you should, because I haven't said a lie," Gorou said, confident about everything he has said.

"That is true because I am a powerful being, I know when lesser beings are lying."

Gorou let that information go in one ear and out the other because it was too scary of a threat.

"But, I want to know, what's your goal?" The dragon asked, curious about what a human like him would want.

"I seek to defend my family from these supernatural beings because, in the end, either I or Issei's mum would end up killed in order to get to Issei." Gorou wasn't smiling, his expression changed to a serious look filled with fury.

The dragon could see the determination and truth behind Gorou's eyes, so he decided to help him out.

"Grab Issei's hand."

Gorou reached out and grasped Issei's hand, instantly, his arm began to spasm and soon his head began to spasm as well.

The pain was excruciating, it was a searing pain that only affected Gorou's arm and his head.

It felt like hours had passed, but it had only been a few seconds.

Once the pain was done, Gorou fell backwards, falling onto the floor, the pain still lingering in his arm.

"Are you okay?" The dragon asked, only showing a little sympathy.

Gorou raised one of his arms and made an okay symbol with his fingers.

"Toot sweet," Gorou said before sitting up.

"So, what happened?" Gorou asked.

"I have given you a special ability that allows you to grow 4x faster and also recover 4x faster than normal, I've also given you the information required to learn magic, your body will also start to change, and you will look younger and healthier as you grow in power."

Gorou could hear the smugness coming from the dragon, but who was he to deny it.

"Thank you." Gorou bowed as he said it before he left quietly.

'There is something strange about him, I could tell he was lying but my senses said otherwise, there is no doubt that he is the father, but what else is he?' The dragon wondered as his light diminished into darkness.

The next morning, Gorou didn't wake up until 1 pm, his body was aching at every movement, and the only thing Gorou could do was stretch to try and alleviate the pain.

The day wasn't very eventful, Gorou just continued to impress his family by doing house chores and stuff, though Miki was against it because of how much pain Gorou was in.

At night, Gorou went to sleep before anyone else, he also awoke in the morning before anyone else.

His muscles seemed to have calmed down enough for Gorou to work out again, he made breakfast for two people before he left the house.

Although the girl was messing with Gorou, he wanted to repay her regardless, so he thought about giving her some food.

Upon reaching the park, Gorou saw the girl being harassed by some guys, but Gorou thought that she could deal with it by herself, though he was going to go help, he could see the girl's face, she looked scared and trembled like a chihuahua.

Reaching the end of the park, Gorou placed down the food containers and looked around for some weapons.

With a rock and a glass bottle, Gorou found sufficient weapons, he began to approach slowly, wanting to get the jump on them.

As Gorou approached closer, he could hear their comments and insults.

"You know the rules bitch! You give us the money your mother owed us! Or you give yourself to us and you earn your money back!" The one speaking to the girl was a blonde pretty boy, next to him was a black-haired emo and a silver-haired boy that looked like a fox.

The girl glared at the blonde boy at the mention of her mum, which earned her a punch.

"Bitch!" The silver fox boy punched the girl, sending her to the ground.

Gorou's blood began to boil as he felt his muscles tense all over his body, veins popping out of his skin, and his heart pounding in his ears.

'Go crazy, go stupid.' All ambition left Gorou's body as he attacked the trio. He threw the rock at the black-haired boy, smashing the glass bottle on the side of the blonde's head before stabbing the broken bottle into the silver-haired boy.

The girl looked at the man with a panicked expression, clearly surprised by his presence.

Gorou had the urge to rip and tear, wanting to do horrific things that he could describe with words.

He had lost all rationality as anger surged through him, an uncomfortably strong urge to just bite something, hard.
