Hidden Gifts

--- DXD World, Japan, Town of Kuoh, Nekoshou Shrine ---

--- Third Person POV ---

After tempting Ophis to leave the Khaos Brigade was failed, Touru went outside the shrine as he took out the Yamato. For years that he didn't disable the Yamato in past years to make sure that he knows how to return back to its form, he dissembled many types of katanas and remembering its structure and learn how to assemble it back.

After he dissembled the Yamato he found a small vial with a red liquid inside it. He searches his memories in his previous life, he saw each structure of Yamato via Fandom he saw many pieces of structure for it but he found nothing about the vial with a red liquid on it.

// Hello Ren or I could say Touru, it's been a while since you transmigrated in that body.// a familiar voice through his head, as Touru focused his mind again to hear the voice again.

' Could it be, Iris!' he said in his mind as he got a cheerful chuckle from a certain Feline Goddess.

// Yes it's me, I'm impressed to your plan to make the ordinary cats into a cat Youkai, it seems your plan was progressing as they unlock some intellect on it, // she said.

' What is this vial for? I don't remember that there was a vial of red liquid as a part of Yamato in the past?' he said as he was looking again at the vial.

// Well that is Sparda's Mutated Bloodline as a hidden gift to make sure that you live well, but it seems that you become a powerhouse in a few years without relying on some system to something like that, but to have more power is not bad right?// she said as she could see his face via projection in her realm.

' Thanks for it, I'm indebted to you again,' he said as he was focusing on his mind again to communicate to her.

// No need for that, as you are a fellow Feline Deity/God in your world, I'm happy to your progress that I will not bored to watching you.//she said but she blushed to the last sentence that she said.

' Well I'll be honored for that.' he said jokingly, but to Iris who was surprised, and she smile at his antics.

// Hm, I have information about that body of yours from the other Reincarnation Realm for the human, it seems he was reincarnated with a same wish about the weapon but its opposite type, Rebellion, and Sparda but due to his wish, his memory was wiped out when he Reincarnated, he failed to summon the two-weapon when he was dire till he died.// she said with seriousness on her voice.

' Then my transmigration was no coincidence right?' he asked.

// Right.// she confirmed.

// About the vial, ones you take the Bloodline, you will gain a technique that only Sparda's family that should learn, Royal Guard, Dark Slayer Arts and Trickster Style and you can access the Devil Trigger and Sin Devil Trigger when you are synchronized enough to your bloodline, I'm sure you are finding the way to activate the Devil Trigger in the past via Yamato but failed to achieve right?// she said as Touru was nodding his head to affirmation.

He didn't need to deny it as he wants more power and strength to make sure that he can protect his family. Call him paranoid for that he will find the way to get strong even many powerhouse of this world to think twice before they offend him, Super Class was not enough but at least he wants a power that could par against the Beast of Apocalypse or more.

' Thank you again, Iris.' he said looking towards the sky.

// Hm-hm, in the future I will visit you in that world, I'd like to see the family that you want to protect to, see you next time.// she said as she cut off the communication to him.

Touru was looking again at the Vial in his hand, and the Rebellion and Sparda were taken out on his body via the soul remains of the previous owner of his body. After a few minutes of hesitation, he drunk the vial to his mouth after the emptied the contents he placed it in the table as he was waiting to assimilate the bloodline on his body.

" Arrrgggghhh!!!!" a sudden pain over his body erupted, fortunately, the basement was reinforced with a seal that the sound could not leak outside even the demonic energy was the same as it cannot let out in the room.

His body underwent an evolution, every part of his body has become demonification and a large pair of wings comes out on his back it was two times larger than the Divine Dividing wings.

[ Hey partner what happened to you!!!] Albion said as the Divine Dividing was formed in the back of Touru which is also accidentally included to evolved. Instead of white wings with blue energy like a feather, it was two pairs of jet black wings with a crimson energy like a feather was shown now. Albion got a new ability that makes him surprised and elated, he got ability known [ Absorb ] it was a same as [ Divide ] but instead of temporary boost when he absorbs the attacks or any kinds of Strength thrown at him, it allows him to permanently boost him albeit not the same boost as Ddraig but at least it was permanent without reset. And another was allowed him to come out from Sacred Gear but he needed a vessel, he will request Touru after the latter finished his evolution.

[ What an interesting host. ] he said as he saw Demonified Touru who's strength could par in their prime means Touru was Third Heavenly Dragon ( exclude Crom Cruach and Azi Dahaka as they are Evil Dragon category Strength)

--- 30 minutes later ---

Touru went back to his human form, he wakes up from the pain that he got by taking the bloodline. He sees many changes in his body, his cells around his body were more compact and more durable the cells with a venom immunity still remained but his healing factor was got stronger in absurdly times it could par or surpassed the healing factor of the Beast of Apocalypse. He become a humanoid cockroach that he was hard to kill now. His hair got longer around his back, the pupils of his eyes became a crimson red and dark purple. His control over demonic energy was could par with the control of nature chakra/energy without conflict with each other. And in his mind was pouring a knowledge about the three to techniques of Sparda's family, Royal Guard style, Dark Slayer Arts, and Trickster Style.

When he turned around and surprised from what he saw the changes in his Sacred Gear.

" What happened to you?" he asked Albion.

[ When you are screaming in pain, I'm worried what happened when I come out, after I saw you become a demon I was also included on it and evolve like this. And thanks to you I can come out now in the Sacred Gear but I need a vessel permanently, and last was I gained a new ability that I will impart to you, it was called [ Absorb ] you can imagine that is a combination of [ Divide ] and [ Boost ] but the boosting of its power was lower than Ddraig but it was allowed to become permanent strength instead of temporary boost!!] Albion excitedly said to Touru from what he gained.

' Maybe my demonification was thought that my Sacred Gear was part of my body and allowed it to evolve like me,' he muttered in his mind as he checked on his mind that what else that he got, when saw that he unlock the Devil Trigger he was surprised and happy but when he saw the way to unlock his Sin Devil Trigger, he was not surprised that he needs to stab himself with a Yamato or Rebellion and maybe for the Sparda, he was thinking what will happen when he absorbs the three swords and formed it into a single sword.

' That's not a time for now ' he said in his mind as look again at his Sacred Gear.

" I will find the way to create a Special type of Homunculus to allow to transform into a dragon I'm sure you miss your Dragon lifestyle right?" he said as Albion gave him a nod of affirmation.

" I'm going out I'm sure that everyone was worried about me," he said as he let the Sacred Gear to disappeared on his back and left the basement.
