Overbearing Entrance

"Hmm... seems the Devils already made their move. I should hurry up as well." said Shuhang as he withdrew his spiritual sense. Since he no longer need to conceal himself, Shuhang just released his power and aura without restraint to find the location with the largest concentration of nekoshous.

With a sample next to him, finding those of similar physiology is almost effortless for the current Shuhang. The fact that the nekoshous constantly draw in 'natural energy' even if they think that they've 'suppressed' their innate ability made it even easier as well.

Kuroka in the other hand... The one whose bloodline was already undergoing changes after consuming the Dragon pellet looked in Shuhang's direction with a hint of awe and worship. Noticing this, Shuhang couldn't help but frown a little.

(Seems like what Ophis told me is true. The change in her bloodline hadn't even finished and yet... It's already started. It's no wonder why 16 had been acting the way she is lately. The fact that she consumed my blood essence made it even worse for her. Tch. I was careless...)

Before coming back from his inner world... If he could call it that anymore. The first thing he did was give a Dragon Pellet to Kuroka to test what Ophis told him. So as long as he doesn't exert his ability to control her, she would otherwise be as normal as she should be with her own free will.

The only change would be that she becomes a bit stronger due to becoming a dragon. Speaking of Dragon, Shuhang recalled his questioning of Ophis when he heard some really grandiose sounding title and name that she blurted out.

'You, are the Origin.'

And when asked to explain what that meant, what Shuhang for instead was...

'Dragons, wants to get close, unconsciously. I'm strong, I, can resist'

Not.... Really the answer he wanted, but it does explain some things he was unsure of from before. Why else would Sixteen act the way she is just from him saving her life one time? Shuhang definitely isn't one of those people that deluded themselves to think that a girl was 'in love' with just a girl was being really friendly to him. Certainly not that far either. He could also rule out the possibility of his 'charm' affecting Sixteen as he made extra sure of that.

Of course, Ophis told him other things well even though it wasn't much. Shuhang would love to hold a much more in depth Q&A session with the Dragon God to clarify what she meant. To bad though that he has a schedule to meet... This entire trip would have been meaningless if he didn't save the nekoshous in time as well as Kuroka's little sister, Shirone.

(The origin part aside, the second part is a bit easier to interpret. Oh well. I'll just have to leave it in Ddraig's hand in the mean time while in the guise of 'guiding' her around. This also made me wonder why the apocalypse dragon even fought me in the first place, even if it really wasn't serious, when it should have originally ignored me, like it had ignored the Blaze Meteor Dragon, Tannin, even when he 'attacked' Great Red in the past. I'll have to ask White about this when I got back as he was the one who was 'conscious' at the time and witnessed that event.)

While Shuhang was going over the many questions he had in his mind, he and Kuroka arrived at their destination. It was a really gaudy looking castle in the territory of that Ultimate Class Devil Shuhang killed. Their arrival of course was picked up by the Devils in this territory. Most of which were servants who looked on in interest and some in awe at what they saw. The rest were the guards which only numbered in 2-3 dozens or so.

The reason for this was of course due to how Shang chose to make entrance. Currently situated high in the sky, a throne like vehicle and 2 individuals could be seen. The Vimana silently floated about while letting out a bright light in Shuhang's customary glow of the kaleidoscope's colors. Wait.... Can't really call it kaleidoscope anymore since it isn't... According to that vampire. Name change in pending for now....

(How like the Devils to be as gaudy and showy as possible...) thought Shuhang as he looked towards Kuroka. Her face bore the look of excitement as she muttered something out.

Kuroka: "Shirone is here! I can 'feel' her presence."

Just to make sure, Shuhang swept the castle with his spiritual sense and found a white hair little girl, about the age of 5~6 sat in a gloomy dungeon while crying her eyes out. She doesn't appear to be injured in anyway, but that didn't make Shuhang feel any better at all.

Random Devil guard: "Identify yourself, intruder! This is the territory of Lord--"

That was as far as that guard could let out before he was impaled by a nameless sword and was smacked down from the sky. He didn't die of course as Shuhang wasn't really going to kill the 'innocent' guards and servants. He still needs to show off a bit however and that's why...

???: "Someone is attacking the castle! Guards!"

The dragonic karmic virtue floated out of Shuhang's chest which some what startled the nearby Kuroka. (Ddraig...) thought Shuhang and the Dragon within his inner world responded as he in turn sent his consciousness outward. Towards the dragonic karmic virtue to be exact.

'roooooaaAAAAARRRRRRR!!!'

Just like so, the 'Heavenly Dragon' Ddraig was apart of the living world once more. Although it's only through a proxy, Shuhang still found a way to let Ddraig outside temporarily. When Shuhang noticed that dragonic karmic virtue didn't have a true sentience, he theorized that Ddraig might be able to over power and possess it with his own consciousness. This was the first time they actually tried it though...

As for the effect of the roar itself as well as Ddraig excitedly letting out his aura after being 'outside' after so long.... Well, let's just say it shook the entire underworld. The oppressive aura was so strong that Shuhang had to make a move so that none of the ones present died from it. Letting the 'innocents' die would leave a bad taste in his mouth after all.

At the Devils side of the underworld, the capital city, 'Lucifer' and a 'Mahou shoujo' stood up at the same time. Both wore shocked faces.

???: "This...! Finally showed up huh?"

Not too soon after, they issued a 'state of emergency' through out the underworld, not just at the capital. After which, they themselves head out towards the source that oppressive presence.

On the other side of the underworld, Fallen Angel territory.

A young boy with Silver hair suddenly trembled as his heart started beating wildly. The person in the same room as the boy suddenly shot up from his chair with a startled look. Behind his back, 6 pairs of wings, the color of ever lasting darkness, manifested.

???: "W-what the hell?! That presence...!"

Even the Angels felt this presence as 'heaven' trembled, sending the low level angels panicking.

Surprisingly, a human boy back on Earth also felt it as well, albeit only unconsciously. As he didn't understand what 'it' was that he felt, he just chalked it up as him being hungry and ignored that feeling. After which, he went back to 'sneakily' reading his 1st Oppai magazine, unaware of his mother donning a 'demonic' look on her face from behind.

He didn't know it at the time, but that unknown thing he felt had actually stirred 'awake' something deep within. Much.... Much earlier than it was meant to be.
