DxD: Golden Peerage

[Do you desire to save your race from extinction? if so... accomplish a mission for me and I shall bring your race not only to salvation but also... supremacy!] Those were the words prompted in the mysterious screen in front of her as blood kept pouring out of her wounds, for Grayfia Lucifuge, a devil in the middle of the civil war against the Old Satan Faction; there could not be more treacherous yet hope-inducing words, it could be a trap, but it could not. She had the option to choose between 'Yes' and 'No'. For her who was at the edge of death with a family that needed support and a cause to fight for, there was not much of a choice. Little did she know, the mission she was tasked to do wouldn't be a simple or common one. In the faraway multiverse of Helius, one of the most powerful entities in endless existence slumbered atop his myriad treasures when his senses perceived something that shouldn't be possible. Intruders were common; Intruders remaining in his realm this long without perishing... were extremely rare. Upon appearing before the silver-haired maiden in odd attire, he huffed a breath frightening enough to make the strongest gods flee on the spot, but she remained in place - conflicted, but in place. "Before you perish, tell me... what is an ant like you doing in my realm? and why are you still alive?" Disbelief was concealed in his mighty voice. The maid thought a lot about what words had to come out of her lips for her to survive this hurdle, eventually, with her century-worth of experience in romance, she managed to find a fitting answer. "You're the Primordial Golden Dragon God, Richter-sama, right?" She asked with serenity. "Sama? I don't know about that... but you're correct. With your foot standing on my treasury realm, do you still dare ask about my identity, Demoness? you haven't-" "Richter-sama... my name is Grayfia Lucifuge and I'm here to conquer your lonely heart" "..." ** ** https://discord.gg/68Entk7Zs7 Feel free to join my discord server to have novel discussions with your peers, get illustrations and participate in polls!

A Small Sun vs Boundless Darkness

Yasaka's irritated gaze was not focused on the foe she was facing, instead... it was focused on Richter. Why was it that she desired to impress him, she didn't know... or perhaps she knew but didn't wish to accept it.

"Not bad... let's step things up a notch".

*RUMBLE!!*

A golden aura started to irradiate from Annette, the golden strands in her hair shone more than ever and then Transcendence began to get coated in a thin layer of Primordial Gold. Unlike Grayfia's complete control over her master's law, this was as much as Annette would ever be able to do.

*BOOOOOOMMMMM!!!*

She shot towards Yasaka like a lightning strike, leaving behind her a black-goldish haze.

*BAAANGG!!*

Without any mercy, The blunt side of her sword crashed against Yasaka, the nine-tailed gigantic fox was blasted away in a rather comic manner considering Annette's size was way smaller.

Yasaka came to a stop in midair, growling and preparing another comeback, creating dozens of magic circles to debuff Annette's ridiculous physical strength. She didn't know if she could win this battle, but she'd give it her all... this is Takamagahara, her turf... if she lost here, what face was there left for her to show!?

*GROWWLLL!!!*

Her nine tails crashed on the ground, sinking inside and working like direct plugs towards the Leylines. Even Amaterasu was baffled at how seriously Yasaka was taking this match. Completely uncaring of the consequences this action could have in Kyoto's yokai society.

Any other time she'd have reprehended Yasaka for this reckless action. But right now, that wasn't the case. Just like Yasaka, Amaterasu desired Richter to pay attention to this beautiful kitsune. It would not only represent an improvement in her priestess' private life but also... the well-deserved allegiance she desired to have with Richter Golden Haze.

Sadly for Yasaka... her speciality lay in the physical department and so was Annette's... but with the endless faith, the acolyte received from Primordial Gold. It didn't take long before the Nine-tailed fox was battered.

"Go, Yasaka-sama!"

"Don't give up!"

It had been a mere half an hour, but all the gods in Takamahagara were already rooting for her to win, alas... the result didn't look positive.

Annette was in a serene state, marvelling at the amount of resistance the kitsune had managed to put up.

"Surrender".

"For the glory of my Yokai faction and my honour as Amaterasu-sama's priestess. I can't give up. You will have to knock me out, missy..." Yasaka looked serene amidst the hazardous visage of an injured kitsune. Richter's lips curled and he nodded in affirmation.

"That can be arranged, Yasaka!" Annette, however, wasn't as merciful.

<First Kill!>

*RUMBLE!!*

Instead of finishing off Yasaka with the lightest of attacks, she sliced through with a slash that warped space itself. The Kitsune tried to block it once again but it was useless. Her tails burst as if an oak tree had met a maximum category tornado.

She was flung out of the battlefield transforming back into her humanoid form marred in wounds.

Her goddess caught her mid-air with the rest of the gods conglomerating around, giving her congratulatory warmth. She wasn't facing any opponent. She was facing an Acolyte of the Golden Dragon.

"You shouldn't have worked so hard, Yasaka..."

"Amaterasu-sama... you told me to!"

"Oh, right~ "

Yasaka's eyebrows quivered, it wasn't like she had a choice, nevertheless... she hoped to have conveyed him with a display he'd not forget in a while, boosting up her chances.

...

"How did she do, Richter-sama? do you think she's strong now?" Grayfia placed her hand on her master's as he sat on the throne with his legs crossed and resting his head on his palm, watching Yasaka's recovery with a keen and considering eye.

"She's beautiful indeed".

"..." Layla and Grayfia regarded one another with a knowing glint, the latter shook her head in exasperation.

"T-That wasn't my question, I mean... to ask. How strong do you think she is compared to us even though she doesn't have the aid of Primordial Gold?"

"Yes..." That was Richter's answer which only further irritated the duo and the Nephilim around him.

'Master, you just came back and you're already looking at another woman like that! perverted Dragon!'

Punishment was due... the apostles and acolytes decided that proper punishment should be imparted this evening. It seems they hadn't learned yet.

Li Suo merely smiled while Jie Yuan's eyebrows were twitching, 'It doesn't bother me... it doesn't bother me'.

[Jie Yuan's POV]

This perverted bastard knows no limit. When he told me he had mates, I didn't expect this. There are... too many. I guess it can't be blamed. A mere demigod Realm King would have an even more astronomical number of concubines with him; yet he has only this many which for a Dragon standard is rather... humble.

'Then why does it bother me? Ni Xuan... I need to mourn you more'.

I shook my head repeatedly, taking my place in the middle of the battlefield. The isn't really a purpose for this battle... these two women obviously want to enter Richter's eyes and the way they desire to do so is by displaying their strength. I didn't think their plan was going to work, they seem to awfully misunderstand the scope of Richter's power since he is holding down his aura just like he did in the Primal Chaos.

I didn't think their feeble strengths would enter his eyes and yet... the gaze he looks at that fox with shows interest, 'Is any woman good enough for you? hmph! I will show you true power'.

Realising my thoughts I shook my head frantically once again, I don't want to impress him!

"Are you okay, Lady Yuan?" Amaterasu asked me, she's already in a position for us to have our duel, this is her field, and everyone around us, all of those deities are supporting her... a pity, it is useless.

"I'm okay, you can make your move".

Right now I can't focus on feelings or thoughts, there is something else I have to focus on in order to help Richter, the only place I know I can help him. This existence inside Grayfia Lucifuge, his mate.
