20 Chapter 20: Father-in-law (3)

#

As expected of the OA private plane, it's a slick black plane with the OA symbol all over. I sometimes wonder how much money they make. Guess i'll find out soon enough. As we enter the private jet. I found Izanami sitting right beside Ryuji.

"Please to meet you Brother-in-law, I'm Akira Dojima"

"Tch, Don't get too cocky you bastard. I'll properly beat you up after this"

Just as hot shot as I imagined. I guess my plan worked.

Originally, Ryuji would have interrupted the peace meeting. Delaying it quite a bit. But it seems that with Izanami, I managed to divert his attention elsewhere and thus skipping the event. But before proceeding I need to confirm something first.

Izanami, Are you really the daughter of Jin Goda?

{"Yes and no, I descended, or in my case ascended from hell through a vessel. Vessels since ancient times are our primary way to communicate with mortals. But, not everybody can be a vessel, You see firstly you need a strong soul with the correct wavelength. Secondly the vassal must be on the brink of death to weaken the bond of body and soul. The Last condition is harder to fulfill. Since my divinity is connected to the underworld, and in turn connected towards sins. The Vassal must have a connection towards both, or it will not work. These things have to happen simultaneously, only when fulfilled, I can safely descend without destroying the original soul, and damaging my own. So now we are one and the same, we are both Izanami-no-okami and Izanami Sugihara Goda. "}

Hmmm interesting, does that mean she still retains her memory after her descent?

{"Yes, that is true."}

Now I have more questions. But one thing for certain though, what on earth could a young girl go through to be associated strongly with a sin, and have a connection to the underworld.

{"She tried summoning a devil."}

Damn, things just got darker all of a sudden. So what about Marie then where is she in all of this?

{"She's my other half. I'm surprised your clairvoyance can see through it. But not this."}

What can she possibly have if you get both the power of Darkness and the aspect of Deceit.

{"Simple really, she got the power of HOPE and the aspect of TRUTH."}

Things have just got a bit more complicated, I'll deal with it accordingly later. For now I'll have to focus.

"Izanami, tell me, after all this time, why didn't you contact me?"

Asked Father as if he's about to cry.

"I'm being targeted by someone. I can't go back to the clan knowing full well somebody is after us. I hope you can forgive me father. "

"I'm sorry I can't be there for you. I'm such a use---"

"Don't say that please, father. You tried your best. We all know."

Izanami said with tears in the corner of her eyes.

Tch---,

I can hear Ryuji clicking his tongue, probably spitting on his father's word.

"But we can make up for lost time father. How are you recently?"

"I've been better that's for sure."

As they have a conversation by themselves, I cant help but notice that Ryuji have a face as if he's eating shit.

"So, Dragon of Kansai, huh?"

"YOU LITTLE BASTARD!"

He swung his fist violently, after calculating my options, I decided to take the hit head on. I feel like my world turned upside down, without mana supporting me I'm just a tougher-than-average Highschooler. Taking a hit from a well known mafia thats on par with a professional UFC fighter really did wonders

"RYUJI!'

"ONII-SAMA!"

After realizing the mistake he made he gave me another TSK and proceeded to change sittings, he went directly towards the cockpit, probably to avoid a lecture. And remains there for the remainder of the flight.

"Are you fine?"

"Yeah. I fought a goddess and won what's the worst that could happen."

Well, it still hurt like hell though.

"HAHAHA! Nice! I would love to hit you a few times myself but my feeble body won't let me."

Feeble? I swore by saitama's shiny forehead that you're anything but that. If we were in a shounen manga, which I totally think we are in right now. You would've been the hidden master type of character.

"So, my son is already in bed with the JingWeon Mafia huh? It's hard to believe. If you said that he wanted to prove himself I would believe you 100% but to be working with JingWeon. That's a tough pill to swallow."

"Well it's fine if you don't believe me, I'll prove it, through action alone."

"HAHAHAHA! Well said."

Iwai's head suddenly popped up from behind me.

"Gondaime-sama(WN: A little less awkward than saying Fifth-chairman-sama), I've received a message saying that all of the OA family, All 120 chairman have agreed to attend and of them more than 100 of them have sent their representative and captains towards Osaka Castle for additional security."

"Good."

Excitement. So this is how it feels like to set a stage for a grand event huh. It really gets me excited.

[This is also Roma, young Akira, remember do not falter. This is the path you have chosen, be sure to see it to the end.]

I know Romulus, better than anyone, to achieve peace, to achieve what we want, we must steel our hearts for bloodsheds.

[Because we make war so that we may live in peace.]

"Getting cold feet Akira? I do know that this is not your war to fight?"

"No, it is not, but, It is mine to end."
