A Very Enthusiastic Walk

Asahi pointed the gun at Ishtar, who did not stop so he shot her in the leg, she screamed out in pain of course since she was not accustomed it, but it did not stop there she tumbled down the stairs falling at Asahi's feet while screaming, he smiled. Ishtar shouted, "Kill him!" Her servant appeared behind Asahi but his chest was pierced by a tentacle that immediately disappeared. The man fell down, his blood dirtying the ground.

Asahi grabbed Ishtar by the hair as the same magic circle he used on Apollo appeared on her body. He cast some healing magic on the leg, making it good as new. He wanted to show her something before killing her. He dragged her through the headquarters of her own Familia causing many of her children to try and stop it, but they were met with magic reinforced bullets to the head, which made them explode once they had been shot. A girl brought her sword down on Asahi who shot her in the stomach spilling her guts all over the place similar things happened to everyone he found.

Every hallway he passed would be littered with corpses. He smiled at the sight it was awesome, "I have to say Ishtar, thank you for this." She asked him in fear, "Aren't you a god?" He nodded in affirmation still dragging her by her hair as she tried to scratch at his hands to free herself but to no avail, "Let me go at once!" He stopped and pulled her up as she struggled, "Woman do you realize the situation you're in?"

She just spit on his face, in response he punched hers, to her it felt like the force of a truck, her jaw was broken as well as her nose, her face was completely deformed, she screamed in pain, burning the spit off himself he said, "It appears you aren't in fact aware yet." he once more healed her and began dragging her again. From here on out Asahi just killed everything he encountered and went to the top of the tower. He tilted his head to the side dodging an axe that had been thrown his way. "Is being dumb a disease?" Asahi asked with a smile, "You just got lucky that first time! try and beat me!" Phryne shouted at him, licking her lips disgusting Asahi more than he already was. He threw Ishtar at Aisha before putting his hands in his pockets.

He appeared next to her and kicked Phryne in the head making her go through the roof and the tower, she landed in the garden with a resounding boom as her head caved in from the sheer force behind the kick, "See, that's what happens to idiots." He pulled out a revolver and pointed it at Aisha who was very afraid now, he beat a level 5 like she was a fly what could a level 4 like her do. He once more vanished appearing at Aisha's side with the barrel lying on her head, he asked with a smile, "So what are you? an idiot or a person with brains?"

She firmly grabbed her blade and smiled, "I can't defy her so that makes me an idiot." she had already resigned herself to her fate, however she had to ask, "Would you listen to one request?" Asahi sighed, "Haruhime?" She looked at him with wide eyes, "You Stop messing around and get rid of him!" Ishtar shouted while getting up, several veins popped out on Asahi's head, he turned towards her, "I-I'm sorry." she said in a low voice. "She'll live." he said shooting her in the head several times. She dropped down dead, Asahi proceeded to empty the whole clip in her with a smile on his face, she was supposed to be a crucial member of the Hermes Familia in the future but did he give a fuck? No, he did not. Haruhime would live not because she asked him but because she could help out the girls that ventured in to the dungeon.

He reloaded the gun and shot Ishtar in each of her legs and arms making her scream even more but he just enjoyed her screams, they were music to his ears. He dissipated appearing in a type of garden with a Medieval Japan type of building in the center. He walked around and opened one of the doors to find the blonde fox girl sitting in a seiza position, she looked at him and politely said, "I shall be your companion for the night, My name is Haruhime." her green eyes looked like they were dead. Asahi stood there for a moment before he said, "Fuck no! I just came to get you out of here since I need your help."

"What?" she asked him confused. He sighed, "Nothing, now come on we're getting you out of here." she was still looking at him dumbfounded, "Are you here to save me?" she meekly asked him, "Oh no I'm just here to look at you" he sarcastically replied. She was still giving him the same confused look, "Oh come on, alright I'm here to save you because you can be useful." he said while deadpanning, he had no need for manipulation in this case.

Her tail moved around a bit excitedly, was he the hero she had hoped for? "B-but are you sure you want to save a prostitute?" she asked a bit afraid, Asahi was tapping the ground with his foot impatiently, he was restless in anticipation of what he was about to do. He smirked, "Pretty funny coming from a little girl that faints every time she sees a naked man." She was extremely confused now wasn't she dirty? and tainted? "Wha-Wha?"

"You're a god damn virgin alright? does that make it simpler?!" Asahi said sounding a bit agitated, this was so not his style, he could just take her magic but he didn't want to invade the dungeon just yet so he held off, this was so not his style but for his girls he was willing to do anything. He put a hand on her shoulder startling her before they both teleported back to where Ishtar was screaming as tears streamed out of her eyes. Aisha's body wasn't here because anything he killed was consumed by [Ruler Of The Dead].

Haruhime averted her eyes from Ishtar, she had suffered for a long time under her and while she was not willing to kill her she was also not willing to save her. Asahi kicked Ishtar healing her but she just lay there this was too much pain she couldn't unseal her arcanum so she was bound to suffer if she resisted. Haruhime spoke in a soft voice, "You haven't told me your name?" Asahi pointed at himself, "Oh I'm Asahi."

She continued, "Are you a hero?" Asahi stared at her dumbfounded before he burst out laughing, "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! T-that's a first!" she looked at him confused, "But you saved me." Asahi shook his head, "I saved you only because you can help me." Haruhime's tail moved around, "But you still saved me." Asahi sighed and snapped his finger as circular barriers got erected all around the Pleasure district, no one would leave and no one would enter.

Haruhime looked at it in awe while Ishtar sat up and looked at it wondering what he meant to do with this. As if guessing her thoughts Asahi pointed upwards as the whole night sky lit up in flames, making for a beautiful spectacle.

HEARTH MANOR

Bell hurriedly ran in to the main hall where the others were eating their food, he was breathing heavily, all of them except Asahi's girls ran over to him, Hestia hurriedly gave him a glass of water, he gulped it down, "What happened Bell-kun? You look beaten up" Lili was a bit panicking, "Bell-sama!" Welf bonked her head, "Let him speak."

Bell grabbed Hestia's arms, "Goddess! Lord Asahi- Lord Asahi!" this drew the attention of the rest of the people here, which were Keiko, Saeko, Liliana, Kumara, Ultima and Carrera who had come out of her room for the first time since they moved here. Milim still wasn't here she was still absorbed in games and anime well that just meant she'd bug Asahi when she got bored of them, and Testarossa was still asleep.

Keiko ran over, "What happened to Onii-san?" Bell guiltily looked at her, "He shoved me away and was taken away by the Ishtar Familia", Keiko went to get her weapons same with Saeko and Liliana, Hestia smiled, "Then we need to help him, get ready!" All of them were stopped by Kumara, "Oh that won't be necessary" she said wiping her mouth with a cloth.

Ultima smiled sweetly, "But they are pretty brave~, makes you want to see how long they'll last." Carrera got up and walked over to the window saying, "It's probably already begun" She opened the curtains and everyone saw that the entire sky on top of the Pleasure District was on fire and several large barriers were erected all around it.

She continued, "You don't mess with him. If ya do" She gave a thumbs down and stuck out her tongue like a delinquent, "Ya get buried." Ultima waved her hand waved her hand, "Oh Oh Wouldn't it be burnt in that case~?" Carrera clicked her tongue, "tch smartass." Bell's party as well as Hestia herself looked at it in awe, all others be they adventures, civilians or Gods looked at it in awe and fear both. Freya licked her lips, "What will you show me my cute Asahi?"
