Chapter 91
Oh, here it is. It's late but here anyway.
•~~~~•~~~~•~~~~•~~~~•~~~~~•~~~~~•
The whole place turned silent by what Xander did, they could only gawked at him who was smiling leisurely as if he didn't do anything special. Sona, Luminous and Utaha sighed at his actions as this guy always loved to brag. He can't seem to keep his hands and would always do something that would baffle everyone.
Michael and Feldway widened their eyes at what they saw. They were just grinning when they saw Sona killing Ivaraje as they know that he wouldn't die to something like that, he would just revive immediately as the concept of death is not within his dictionary. They became scared of the thought of Xander destroying their plans, no everything was already destroyed the moment Xander killed Ivaraje. They intended to make Veldanava revived himself after witnessing what would happen to the world. They would then die in his hand while Ivaraje kill the creator himself.
"Shit.. shit, shit! This is impossible! There is no way someone could kill Ivaraje!" Michael shouted while pointing at Xander. "Why not? Veldanava also died right? Even the omnipotent creator died, how could Ivaraje be excluded in that logic?" Xander said while smiling lightly, Michael was taken aback by that logic he couldn't refute it as Veldanava indeed died despite being a Omnipotent creature. "I guess its also time to clean the pests" Xander said while looking at Michael and Feldway who just shivered at his gaze.
"Let's see.. who will do it?" Xander began thinking before Utaha raised her hand excitedly. "Let me do it, Xander!" Utaha said with stars in her eyes, Xander looked at Sona who just sighed and nodded her head. He also looked at Luminous who just hmpd while looking away, Xander's lips twitched at that, he indeed didn't pay too much attention in Luminous in this war, he will compensate for that later on. He patted Luminous's head before giving the go option to Utaha.
"S-Shut up! Do you think that you can penetrate the Ultimate Defen-" Michael's body bloated before exploding into nothingness, they turned their attention to Utaha who just slashed her sword. "Do you think just because you have the Ultimate Defense, you could take my attack?" Utaha said while crossing her arms under her chest. With Michael dead the heaven also passed the authority to the most suitable. The only one suitable for the heaven is the daughter of the creator, in other words, Milim.
«Michael the ruler of heaven has died. The process of passing the authority will now commence..
Looking for the most suitable person to do it...
Bloodline checked, 1 result.
Found Individual Milim Nava to be the most suitable, the passing event will now start.
...Successful!
The Heaven's ruler is passed to Milim Nava hence holding the authority of heaven»
"Eh?" Milim could just stop flying as she tilted her head. "Kufufu, I guess even the heaven couldn't see the potential inside Rimuru-sama.. how disappointing" Diablo said with a dissatisfied look on his face, he couldn't fathom how the heaven ignored his Lord Rimuru's existence. "What's happening?" Milim was still confused as she just looked at Guy who has a wry smile on his face. "Heaven is your father's domain right. Since you are his daughter then it was passed to you" Milim tried to comprehend his words but just ended with her head exploding with smoke. She couldn't handle such deep thinking.
"Ehh!? Milim is the daughter of Veldanava?!" Rimuru exclaimed as he didn't expected that, he knew that Veldanava is the creator of this land but he didn't know anything about Milim being his daughter. "Indeed, Rimuru-sama. Lady Milim is the one and only daughter of Lord Veldanava" Diablo began explaining history to Rimuru who was weirded out by the sudden lesson in the middle of a battlefield. "Still.. where are we anyway? This is not the real cosmos right?" Rimuru asked as Diablo shook his head, "No, Rimuru-sama. We are currently inside of the Queen of Spirit's Labyrinth. In this place, she can control everything including laws and concepts" Diablo said.
"Ramiris is that strong?! Where is she anyway?" Rimuru asked as Ramiris manifested beside him. Rimuru looked at her for a few second before asking, "Who are you? Ah, are you one of Ramiris's followers?" Rimuru asked as Ramiris began puffing her cheeks. "That's mean! What do you mean you can't recognize me?!" Rimuru felt the childish action was familiar as he slowly asked. "Ramiri..s?" Ramiris just nodded her head while puffing her chest, she was proud that she is in this form. She can use various spirit magic while being in this form after all, Rimuru wouldn't have to think that she is just barely a demon lord.
"Ehhh!? No matter where I look at it, there is no Ramiris in this body! Rainbow hair?!" Rimuru began checking her out as Ramiris was starting to get embarassed. "A-Anyway! Do you understand how strong I am now?" Ramiris smirked while asking Rimuru. "Ah.. definitely, but its not the time for this! There is still a lot of angel-" Rimuru was slack jawed when he saw the unlimited amount of angels kneeling infront of Milim who was already overwhelmed by everything. "What's happening?!" Rimuru asked, as Ramiris just smiled gently. "Every angel is the Heaven's property, so Milim being the ruler of it can now command them" Ramiris explained.
Xander was watching everything while floating, this world is now free of pests, they can live freely without any problem in the future. He already killed Yuuki and Mariabell, Granbell will be dealt by Rimuru as the old man is in his dying age already, Mariabell dying should have at least a impact on him. "I guess its time to return.." Xander mutter was heard by everyone as they looked at him, "What? You're going back already?" Guy asked while narrowing his eyes, he still wanted to beat Xander in a battle.
"Well, we have been living here for many milleniums already, Sona also already missed her family. I can't be too much right? I drag her to this world after all" Xander said while shaking his head as a gentle smiled appeared on his face. Guy closed his eyes for a moment before sighing. "I can't stop you now can I?" He asked as Xander just smirked, "Ha! No homo dude. And besides this place is already void of any threat. You're also going to train after this right? Surely no one could beat the serious Guy Crimson after training" Xander said as Guy just sneered.
"You're really going back, Xander?" Milim asked with a sad look on her face, they've been friends for many years already, of course she would be reluctant to let Xander return after their long bond. "Yes, I already missed everyone there after all. I already have many stock of manga to post there" Xander said as Milim could only look down while accepting it, "You're an otherworlder Xander?" Rimuru asked as Xander never really mentioned it, and all their actions reeks of something any person in this world would do. "We didn't really mentioned it to you right? We came here 2.. or maybe 3 milleniums ago? We just lived our life here" Xander said.
Rimuru widened his eyes at his words, they've been living her for too long? Maybe that's why they act like how people in this world do. "Anyway, since you are going to leave already, can you at least mention your ability, Xander?" Guy asked as they never really understand it deeply, only the vague information that he could erase something. "Hmm.. okay, as a farewell gift I suppose. My ability is called 'Endless Nine', I can deny anything as long as I believe that it doesn't exist. And the limit is.. probably nothing? I can erase concepts, phenomenon and even abstract things" Xander explained as Guy's face turned dark. He was wondering how to counter that ability. (A/N: the real one was limited to Battler's modern line of thinking, Xander's logic is different from him so him thinking that modern cars are impossible is still valid)
The others were just shocked by his ability, specially Rimuru when he felt that the ability was somehow familiar. [Report. It is based on Battler Ushironomiya's ability] Raphael's words made him remember that certain fiction that has various hax that surpass even this world. Rimuru twitched his lips while thinking about it, "Then how about Utaha's sword?" Ramiris asked as she was clearly interested on it, she was even hoping to study it with Berreta. "That sword is the Law Destroyer Venuzdonoa. It can erase REASONS of everything" Xander said as Utaha just smirked at the attention she was getting.
Xander talked to everyone he knew before it was finally finished. It took a long time since the others were quite emotional, Xander just smiled the whole time as he understood how they feel. They said their farewells with a smile on their face, "Don't worry, I'll pull everyone over when our wedding day would come" Xander said while smirking at the girls, in his return he will bring, Luminous, Carrera, and Guinness. Of course Carrera isn't his woman but she has been a loyal maid for so long, simply going back without her would be disrespect. Xander also don't intend to marry her, as he felt the three is enough.
Xander is already planning to fix the relationships that he made in DxD world, he swore not to take more woman as the mere thought of collecting womans disgust him. He thought about Mashiro before shaking his head, he will draw the line and just be her mentor in drawing manga, he won't step on the line as handling more womans are troublesome. Even right now, he already has trouble handling the willful three, what would happen if he added more. "Umu! That's a promise alright!" Milim pumped her fist as she nodded her head. Xander just chuckled at her while patting her head, he also throw a lot of manga to Ramiris who just widened her eyes at the bunch of Holy Scriptures.
Xander took a bokken before slashing it in the air. A dimensional portal opened as Xander gave them a one last look before entering it. The girls also followed him shortly as the portal closed after they all stepped on it. The place turned quiet before they just smiled, "Who is going to live in their house?" Guy asked as two people raised their hands. Guy raised his eyebrow at the unusual two, "Wait, when did they leave Hell? Diablo, I thought you already sealed all of the gates?" Guy asked while looking at Diablo. "They are probably teleported by that Lord from hell" Diablo simply said as Guy nodded his head. "Then we'll leave it to you.. Violet, and Blanc" Guy said.

Xander POV*
We finally arrived at DxD, I looked at the girls who seemed to be surprised by the scenery below us. I can see Sona looking at the world with a melancholic look on her eyes, she probably missed her whole family and peerage right now. Though I doubt it was that much as her sense of time is rather skewed after she evolved, mere thousand of years is too short for her now, she also has experienced many things during our living in there. Sona experienced more wars than Serafall did, she also lead many of them during our visits in human land many years ago.
I sensed a fluctuation in the space as I saw Great Red and Ophis greeting us, they probably know where we came from and how long we have been out. I shoed them away as they returned to their place, Luminous, Guinness and Carrera widened their eyes at the two beings who has the same power level as Ivaraje from before, No. Great Red and Ophis is stronger than Ivaraje as Ivaraje's Destruction concept is probably just ¼ of the true one. It was too weak for a real Destruction meanwhile the two holds ¾ of theirs.
I smiled greatly when I sniffed the familiar air of the DxD world as I teleported us to Underworld. The girls raised an eyebrow at the current realm they are in, "Xander what is this place?" Luminous asked while looking at the purple sky. "This is Underworld, the home of the devils, Sona's race" I explained as they just nodded their heads. They are more tame than I thought, well this is good since unnecessary troubles are not needed. Though I doubt it would be long before the real trouble would come as fate seems to deemed Sona as its new child of fate.
The girls just kept quiet while Sona walked towards the mansion with short steps, she was readying herself infront of her family and peerage that she didn't see for too long. Before she could even reach the door a blur already appeared and tackled Sona to the ground. "So-tan~!" Serafall screamed while tears were falling on her cheeks, making Sona stunned. She thought that she would be the one who would react like this but she forgot about her sister who is obsessed with her. "Nee-sama.. I'm back" Sona said while slowly embracing Serafall.
Serafall widened her eyes as she can't believe that Sona initiated a hug on her own, she didn't hold back and snuggled to Sona trying to place her scent on her own body. "So-tan..! You probably live a long life there right? We also miss you.." Serafall said as she backed out where Sona saw her parents looking at her with gentle eyes. "You've grown.. Sona" Lord Sitri said becoming emotional, "Yeah, too much so.." Lady Sitri has tears gathered beside her eyes as she received Sona who ran to her. Lord Sitri joined the fray and also hug his daughter.
"I miss you, Mother, Father" Sona said trying to control her emotions. The others who heard of Sona's return immediately went to Sitri Territory. Its been a week since Sona left the world, that might be just a short time but in DxD where events happen everyday it was already long. Rias already went to Kyoto and fought the Hero Faction.
Sona's peerage arrived as they also tackled Sona into a big hug releasing he restraints they kept to preserve their images. ""Sona-sama!"" Sona just embraced them back with a matured smile on her face, if before she would reprimand them for doing something like this, she didn't do something like that now. Its because she thought that its too much to be angry for them just because they didn't take care of their images. I can somehow hear Sona's monologue in her head as I just shook my head. I looked at Carrera and Luminous who are already ready to return in their world after looking at this cheesy scene.
I bonked their head as they looked away embarassed, well Guinness is rather calm in this situation. He didn't release his aura or even tried to look everyone like his prey, it seems like he learned a lot from Carrera's beating. Utaha was just watching while embracing my hand gaining Luminous's attention. Sigh, I just hope that they wouldn't fight for stupid things like this right now as that would really ruin their reunion. They seemed to understood my thought as the two backed down without saying anything. This is getting weird, we don't need to speak anymore to converse, well this is rather useful but I should still do something about Azazel and Ajuka who was looking at me with stars in their eyes.
