Ophis and Great Red Make Up.

While Kurayami was watching the three remaining battles he noticed in the underworld that Ophis was done with her supposed opponent. It was a quite sad ending seeing just how bruised and battered body of Crom Cruach was left.

He was alive and even though he was battered, beaten and unconscious his dragon mouth was in a huge snarl. Ophis was the one who wanted to train, but he had felt he had learned something from her. They both got what they wanted, but she forgot one thing.

Crom Cruach is prideful and he now had Ophis as his target to defeat. His drive to grow stronger than even her was elevated, which was good for his pride. Kurayami sent her a message through their connection which made her pout seeing where he was.

'Ophis, you done already with poor Crom Cruach?'

"Why with Baka Red?"

'Try to get along with him for my sake. I will still beat him but try to at least be cordial with him.'

"Fine, you have to train me too"

'I promise now is Crom Cruach going to survive?"

She looked down at him and from his vitality, he would be fine.

'He is out cold, Traning done.'

She was sitting on top of the head of a passed-out Crom Cruash while he had many of his bones broken by her. She had blocked all his blows for several hours while deflecting when she could. When she felt she got all that he could teach her she ended it with one punch to his face that knocked him out.

She had checked how he fought, how his mana was controlled and the ways he moved. With her perception, she felt she had learned a lot which she would have to put into practice. She looked down at the evil dragon and waved.

"Thank you."

She teleported into the dimensional gap at Kurayami and the other girl's sides while she frowned at Great Red.

"Baka Red."

Great Red grunted which translated to 'Hello weakling.' Hearing that made Kurayami nearly break out laughing which made Ophis shoot him a glance. Only Great Red could say that she was a weakling in this world which reminded him just now.

"Quick question to the two of you, did God do anything to get weaker or something. Wonder why I never asked?"

Ophis and Great Red were ancient as such if anyone saw anything it could be them. Great Red grunted and hearing his words made Kurayami grin with a snarl. Akeno, Kuroka, and Artemis, all looked at him. Artemis shot him a look because he was not saying anything.

"What did he say? Not all of us can speak Dragon God, I can speak to Tyrant and other weaker dragon, but to me, it just sounds like growls."

He coughed and explained what he was told.

"Apparently before the great war and before the sacred gear system was a thing Great Red, had one equal in this world. Trihexa, or 666 the Beast of the Apocalypse. He said that if they fought it would be hard to tell who would win, but the world would be destroyed. God sealed it away with 1,000 forbidden seals using up his power."

Artemis was shocked he shot to her feet and started to pace on the scales of Great Red.

"I once heard a story from my mother, she said in times past a beast of Great Power threatened the world, but it just disappeared one day. I think she meant Trihexa, but where is it? We need to keep Kurayami far, far, and I mean far away from it."

"HEY! Do you think I will just go and unsea-"

Rebellion was floating just above him chucked and snitched him out.

"You are already making a plan to get to it, unseal it, beat it, tame it, and unleash it again on your foes while you ride on its back laughing like a mad man."

It got so quiet that you could hear and feel the movement of the wind which made Great Red confused. There was no wind in this place, he coughed and moved his attention to Raynare who was to grasp something in her fight.

"Let's not talk about this until I find it."

Akeno facepalmed at her brother's greed for new pets. He still planed on stealing Fenrir, but he no longer was going to try and get the evil dragons which was a boon. At that moment Raynare finally got that last push she needed.

Seeing how Raynare and Vritra were locked in a deadly fight where Black Fire, and Red fire, and Death magic hit the hard scales of Great Red, but the big guy did not even feel a tickle. He grunted which made Kurayami laugh at what he said.

Akeno was falling asleep on his shoulder asked him.

"What did he say?"

He looked at her and chuckled.

"Great Red said that they are so weak they can never scratch him. He was laughing at her."

Raynare who overheard that got pissed and took it on the will.

"Vritra, we need to kill that will and them find a way to beat the crap out of Great Red."

"You will fail, even Kurayami does not dare fight Great Red at this moment and you can't beat your lover."

She stomped on Vritra's head and she pulled her scythe and squinted at the will that was covered in black and red curse marks. Raynare had once absorbed the blood of Ares with one of her sacred gears and she had made it her own power.

"Vritra, Zildrirth, let's kill it."

Her new familiar emerged from her pact showing off the undead dragon Zildrirth she had tamed recently. Both Vritra and Zildrath glowed purple and became rays of light that fused with her balance breaker.

She felt her sacred gears, Vritra's soul, Zildrirth, her death magic, and Ares flames all converge into one thing.

"Abyss Side, Embrace of the Enveloper."

A giant explosion of death magic and fire was unleashed from her and what remained was a Black armor that had the motif of two dragons coiled around each other on the cape. Her scythe was covered in a dense evil aura and her 14 wings on her back were radiating droves of death magic,

She clenched her hold on her scythe while she stoped her foot and vanished from sight while black flames burned on the scales of Great Red, but the will of God looked behind it where Rayanre was.

It was about to mock her for missing, but a line from its head to the crotch spat out black flames in shock. Black tentacles emerge from her back and impaled the will in every part of her body devouring its energy of it.

Death magic was not compatible with holy, but she could convert the energy into pure magic and convert that to death magic. The will was made up of 6 different ones so its energy was massive and in the end, she ate so much she felt bloated.

Sent large amount of it to Vritra who helped her manage it and in the end, when the energy coursed through her body she felt a tingle as she felt her last pair of wings emerge from her back. She had succeeded in becoming a super fallen angel and at the age of 17.

Her new balance breaker crumbled off her body and Vritra and Zildrirth both emerged from it shaking their heads. Combining like that was quite a headache as their souls had to be intact with hers to make the Abyss Side Balance Breaker.

Of course, she had the worst headache, but the only pure will was keeping her up. She sighed as she did not get a divine spark, but she did gain her last pair of wings and a massive amount of mana for her to consume that converged on her heart.

She did not notice it at the time, but in her heart, a tiny black crystal was formed. Being in contact with the souls of two dragons had formed a tiny Dragon Core which would grow with time and replace her heart like Kurayami's.

From there she could evolve it into a Divine Dragon Core. Just like Kurayami's dragon core had absorbed his Divine Spark, the opposite could happen so she was not out of hope. Kurayami walked up to her and hugged her from behind. When she felt his strong arms around her made her relax.

"Guess you and grandfather are no longer the only super fallen angles."

"Well, I am now a dragon fallen angel hybrid. I just got to find my dragon form, I am impressed with you Raynare. Now, Esdeath should be just about done too."

Raynare had a grin on her face which Esdeath could feel. She was cursing in her mind that her rival had gotten her last pair of wings before her as they had made a bet. The loser would have to admit that the winner was superior and stronger which neither wanted.

She was so pissed that Algor felt his soul being drained more and more by her. Even if his soul was forced into her armor he felt the cold of being devoured soul and all. He gave up on his pride and begged her not to eat him, he would be her slave as long as she did not destroy him

Sadly she was in no way going to let him go after the years she had suffered from this demon's attacks. Her eyes glowed icy blue and her armor was absorbed into her chest and next to her heart.

Demons were strange creatures as not only were they not affected by holy magic, crosses or anything devils was weak to their origin was also not known. Algor was a demon born from the essence of Hel, and since then another like him had not emerged.

Each demon was unique, and only a demon could find its location. The simple reason they were in hiding was that a full-grown demon-like Algor was equal to a dragon and all demons contained a Demon Core. Similar to a Dragon Core, but the difference was that a Demon Core could be hardest and consumed by other beings to increase their might.

Demons were nearly extinct as even gods would devour their cores to increase their power and at that moment the essence of Algor fused into Esdeath's heart and formed a pseudo-Demon Core and she finally felt silence in her mind.

Algor was gone and the demon blood in her body all converged toward her heart and fused with her fallen angel heritage with the fallen angel being the dominant trait. Her wings all turned a blacker shade while the tips of her wings turned blue.

Just like her rival she had managed to gain her 8th pair of wings which in her mind what she got She breathed out a breath of cold air as she felt her soul go quiet, no longer did she feel the torture of Algor who every day or her life, and every waking moment was screaming in her mind and trying to take over her body.

She looked at Raynare and scoffed.

"You might have gotten your 8th pair of wings, but I got my Demon Core before you bitch. Now, who is superior to who, I want to hear you say it."

Even though they insulted each other they were best friends and their rivalry was their form of kinship Raynare got out of Kurayami's arms and walked in front of Esdeath looking into Esdeath's eyes.

"Oh, A Demon Core, that all? I got a Dragon Core and even though it is still growing I bet your Demon core is the same. Last I checked we have fought 198 times and I have won 103 of those times. Who is superior to who bitch?"

"You forgot that I was the one who won 103 times, just you wait Raynare."

Kurayami walked up to both of them and grabbed their heads which shocked them. He lifted them and started to crush their skulls making them yell in pain. Their legs kicked uselessly in the air as they tried to pry open his fingers.

"You two can fight all you want later. Rest now."

He dropped them later and looked at Lavinia foe who was impaled with hundreds of ice shards and at that moment it had turned to ice. The giant doll punched a whole in the will and devoured all its energy which was anti-climatic.

She did not need a new balance breaker and instead learned how to control her existing one. Once all of the energy of the will was in her sacred gear it entered Lavinia's body to deal with the energy. The good thing was that Lavinia ice was compatible with the hoy energy.

She had a big smile a she went toward Kurayami and the rest of the group.

"Do I get a reward?"

Kurayami thought of it and he smiled.

"What kind of reward? I got a couple in mind?"

All the girls gazed at him with hunger in their eyes. Even if they were exhausted they saw sex as a perfect way to blow some steam. Kurayami sighed and he looked at Great Red.

"Hey, I owe you a favor for letting us stay here during our trial."

Great Red did not mind as being alone forever could be a drag. Kurayami wave goodbye and teleported them to his room. Lucky for him Rossweissa was not there. He set up a time distortion barrier and gt ready to please the exhausted girls.
