Was It All An misunderstanding

"Well, we should get going. I have no time to stay since I have a world to defend." I said lightly while looking at Destruction who just completed painting. Unlike in the past when his painting would be ugly, this time it was beautiful as if he took reality and threw it into the painting. 

"Thank you." He said in joy, to which I nodded lightly before I teleported away with Lucifer Morningstar, and there we appeared in a destroyed city. The ground was glowing, for Irene had enchanted it to ensure it would be destroyed in the battle, even so, the scale of the battle was out of hand.

Boom

Superman was hit hard by Zeus landing right next to me. The man of steel, a man who never bleeds was currently bleeding, his face twisted in pain. He got up, ready to join in the fight once more before Pausing when he noticed me.

"I was only gone for 3 hours at most," I said with a smirk while looking at all of the heroes, who were honestly only standing thanks to Irene and August's support. But even then, Irene and August were no match for the likes of these gods. Even their Avatars were powerful, although the avatars rarely showed a universal level of powers thanks to the plot, it didn't mean the avatars couldn't show it.

Superman for example strength depended on what universe he was in, in some universes Superman had the power to sneeze away a whole solar system, pull planets around, hold black holes in his palm and the list went on. You know who could easily defeat the man of Steel? These gods,

In this universe, Darkseid, Zeus, and the others had the power to destroy the whole dimension. As for why they don't just do such things, it was simple really. Plot. The people of this verse are heavily bound by the plot, leading to their strength dropping and growing depending on the moment.

By plot, I would have to say Destiny, is one of the endless. It has it so that at the end of the day, the heroes would always win. There for, no matter the danger, or how hopeless things get, they had plot armor on their side. Even if the universe is destroyed, they would gain a power up, or get something to help them recreate the universe.

"L-Lucifer?" Zeus who was about to fly forward to capture Irene paused seeing Lucifer standing at my side. Lucifer smirked at me, his smirk grew even more seeing how the whole battlefield paused as everyone grew uneasy with his arrival.

Lucifer was someone even their true form was no match for. Lucifer was a being who transcended all of the higher dimensions, he was a guy who stood at the peak of everything, second only to his father and rivaled only by his twin brother.

"I never liked gods... So I will use you all to test my sword." I said lightly while looking at August and Irene who were covered in injuries. I held my palm out, and from the magic circle in the ground, a katana slowly appeared.

No one had time to look at the katana as they looked at the sky, where a huge dark red castle floated. That castle seemed here, yet at the same time far away, it looked bigger than galaxies, but at the same time looked smaller than planets.

"I wonder, can a man who has inflicted pain and suffering all his life withstand that suffering when it's brought back upon them?" I asked lightly, confusing everyone for a second, but as I pointed my sword at Darkseid... well they had a clue. Why? Darkseid suddenly let out a demonic scream,

"What you're feeling now is the combined pain and suffering across the multiverse you have inflicted. I had to destroy the reason that said you couldn't take that pain, and your brain would shut down." I said while walking towards Darkseid, who couldn't even talk. His very source was in pain, his true form was also experiencing all of this pain.

"Shocked that your true form is also affected? Did you think just because you were an avatar, your true body was safe?" I asked while stepping on Darkseid's face while turning to look at the rest of the gods.

"While let's have it so you all also face the combined pain and suffering you inflicted across time and space," I said horrifying all of the gods, not all of them had done much evil, but they didn't know what their avatars in other universes might have done... but I didn't care, for I was mainly targeting their true form.

"Wow, you can throw it out, but can't take it... well, I just cursed all of you. Every time you all do evil once more, that pain you just felt shall return to you, multiplied by the power of the infinite." I said while calling forth my castle, and Great Red.

"Let's leave," I said while jumping on Great Red, to which Lucifer, August, and Irene joined me. August and Irene said goodbye to the new friends they had made, and all they could do was wave back with unease seeing the state of the gods and higher dimensional beings...

"Brother... Mom, Dad? what are you doing here?" Rias opened the door to be shocked, she couldn't understand why they were all here out of the blue. Asiya was also caught off guard, not expecting to have such guests come over without warning.

"Sorry lady Asiya, for this has to do with Anos. Can we talk?" Rias' mother said with a faint bow.

"I'm Venelana Gremory, Rias' mother." She said with a gentle smile. Venelana looks very much like her daughter with shorter brown hair and violet eyes. Due to her devil lineage, she appears around the same age as her daughter and her son who appears to be in his early to mid-twenties.

"I'm Zeoticus Gremory." Rias' father said with a nod of his head. Zeoticus has the appearance of a middle-aged, handsome-looking man with long crimson-red hair that is tied in a loose ponytail with a black hairband. He has bright blue eyes just like his two children, Sirzechs and Rias Gremory. He also has a short and red beard or stubble.

Asiya of course welcomed them in and went to get them something to drink, but Grayfia stopped her as she went to do her job as a maid. 

"I don't know where to start with this... but where is Anos?" Zeoticus asked with a frown.

"Oh, he left. After finding out Rias got pregnant, he needed to go find something to create a sword with. He should be back sometime tomorrow." Asiya said causing the room to pause. Asiya covered her mouth, realizing she shouldn't have been the one to surprise them like this.

"... 18 years ago, I gave birth to twins," Venelana said with a weird look, leaving Rias confused as to why they were bringing this matter up.

"We told you he was killed... but in truth, he was taken away. He was born with powers far above your brother." Zeoticus said while looking towards Sirzechs. 

When Sirzechs was born, he floated in the air releasing the Power of Destruction which was so powerful even when he was a newborn, it could disintegrate or deform surrounding furniture and decoration without a trace. None of the doctors could touch him, except Venelana. He was born with his current level of power and only mastered it... he was born the strongest devil. So, one could imagine Rias's shock hearing her twin brother was above even her brother.

"When your twin brother was born, he almost destroyed everything, he didn't because he was subconsciously suppressing his own power. But his birth scared many devils, leading to him being kidnapped when he was only 8 months old. We searched everywhere, but we couldn't find him. We tracked his traces to the human world, but he was always on the move." Sirzechs said causing Rias to finally understand what they were building towards.

Siblings who have never met can sometimes fall in love due to a phenomenon called genetic sexual attraction, where a strong attraction develops upon meeting a biological relative later in life, often because they were separated at a young age, preventing the usual childhood desensitization to sexual attraction within a sibling relationship.

What Rias believed was love at first sight was nothing more than... well, the attraction towards her other half. Believing she was in love, she of course wanted to impress the first person she had ever fallen in love with, leading to everything that happened... and yes, incest for devils was also something frowned upon. If it wasn't, devils would just marry their siblings to ensure their bloodline remained pure.

Sure, marrying into other families was cool and all since it built bonds and connections, but would the truly prideful family not just go for the inbreeding path? So, yes. Rias at this moment was overcome with the same level of disgust any normal person would, after finding out they had been dating their sibling and were currently carrying their seed.

She was of course questioning reality, for she was truly in love... at least that was what she thought, now she didn't know anymore. Was her love all but a misunderstanding?
