Rose

The next Akio woke up and after untangling himself from the pile of bodies made his way down the hall.

Along the way, he was met with Tiamat who followed him.

He arrived at an empty room where he had left something the previous night. This something was the boosted gear that housed the soul of Rose, someone Akio was very curious to meet.

"I already know you have awakened so how long will continue your act," Akio spoke with a bored expression.

A few seconds passed of silence before a voice rang throughout the room.

"I apologize, yes I awoke when I felt your presence a couple of days ago," Rose spoke reluctantly as if wanting to avoid a conversation.

"Haha, so you finally wanna speak, great then you can tell me where the hell my treasure is, you BITCH!" Tiamat who was now dressed in a pale blue scaled armor couldn't hold back her anger as she yelled at the sacred gear.

"Agh, uhh, T-Tiamat, umm your treasure," Rose's voice showed her fear. She had always been scared of Tiamat's anger, and she found that she would cower every time it was directed at her.

"Stop stuttering and spit it out," Tiamat spoke through gritted teeth.

Rose just continued to cower, her status as the 'Red dragon of domination' couldn't be seen anywhere.

Akio who until now was internally laughing raised his hand forcing Tiamat to stop.

He then turned his attention back to Rose. "I originally only took you as a punishment to that kid who can't keep his eyes to himself, but I'll admit I'm interested in your ability."

Akio was always looking for people to add to his power, there was also another desire but surprisingly the former was the stronger one.

Rose stayed silent as she waited for Akio to continue.

"Let's make a deal, in exchange for replacing all the treasure you 'borrowed' from Tiamat, as well as giving you a new body and power that you could only dream of, you will serve under me," Akio spoke as if he was a devil trying to tempt someone to sin.

Rose although doubtful if he could truly do what he said sat in thought for a while.

"Fight me, if you can truly do as you say make me a body and fight me, I am the 'Dragon of Domination' I cannot allow myself to serve someone unless I am defeated." Soon enough she spoke her terms.

Akio just smirked before he walked up to the gear. With his hand extended he made a pulling motion and immediately a glowing orb appeared in his hand.

With his other hand, he brought out a few materials from his inventory before he began working on the body. He made the basic body of a normal dragon before he placed Rose's soul into it. Lastly, he used a combination of spirit magic and metamorphosis magic to change the form of the dragon to one that matched what Rose wanted.

When everything was said and done Akio saw the welsh dragon he recognized from the original series.

"I HAVE RISEN ONCE AGAIN." Rose let out a roar prompting Akio to put up an isolation barrier.

"Haha, I feel great, prepare yourself, I will not allow myself to be beaten so easily." Rose stretched her wings that reached both sides of the room.

"It's Akio, you can just call me that," Akio spoke knowing she didn't know his name.

"Ah, right you can call me Rose, now let us have our fight," Rose spoke again, which was followed up by Akio teleporting them to a training field.

The results of the match were as expected, Rose tried to boost as much as she could but wasn't even able to damage Akio who stood still. She tried numerous tactics including fire but nothing worked, still, she outright refused to concede defeat.

When Akio saw this he decided to play on the offensive as he sent a fireball at Rose.

Rose scoffed at Akio who was using her specialty and shot her own fireball to try and counter it.

To her surprise, however, her fireball was eaten and seemingly disappeared. The fireball still kept its same speed as it rushed forth and blew up directly in front of Rose.

The force of the explosion blew her away and it could be seen none of her body was left unburned.

"Do you quit?" Akio teleported directly in front of her before asking.

Rose with her last strength before she inevitably blacked out spoke, "I never had a chance."

Taking that as her giving up, Akio smiled before he used regeneration magic and brought her back from the brink of death.

At the same time, he used spirit magic to bring her consciousness back.

"Very well, I have completely lost. According to our deal, I will serve you. Though, but I will hold you up to the promise of making me stronger." Rose sighed in defeat when she finally woke up again.

"For now you and Tiamat will work just for me as I'm sure neither of you has experience serving. Also, I recommend adopting a human figure just as Tiamat has." Akio spoke before bringing out 2 pendants with his symbol.

Rose stood still for a while before a change started to occur and her body shrunk.

When the transformation was done a woman with dark red hair and green eyes appeared. She looked like she could be Akane's twin as even her proportions matched.

Looking down Rose saw all her parts exposed.

She took an example from Tiamat and made a red green and gold armor that wasn't that different from the boosted gear armor. She left the headpiece off and removed some parts of it making it easier for casual movement.

Just like that Akio added two more maids to his growing family.

"Well I did promise you both something so let's start with Tiamat," Akio spoke beckoning over Tiamat.

For the next few hours, Akio used the compass of eternal paths to find the treasures Rose lost and repair them with regeneration magic. By the end of it, Tiamat looked satisfied as she rolled around in all the shiny material.

Akio was now with Rose explaining her duties just as he had done with Tiamat earlier. The girls' duties were fairly easy they were his personal maids and not household maids. All they had to do was follow orders whenever he gave them.

After confirmation that she understood everything, Akio called over Tiamat who still had a blissful expression.

He took them both back to the training grounds where he first gave them his blessing as well as connected them with his infinity.

Akio wanted to know if with Infinite magic Rose would be able to boost her power infinitely. She may never reach the level of himself and Ophis but being able to boost your strength Infinitely every second without limit is a broken ability.

For Tiamat, her main abilities lie in both Chaos and Karma, both were concepts that she had a decent amount of control over.

For now both Rose and Tiamat we're just given the usual infinite magic power as well as infinite regeneration and the other perks.

Akio decided he would think of ways to use his abilities to suit the two, although he already had some ideas for Rose.

(Underworld)

Sirzechs was sitting in his office with a hopeless smile on his face. The news of what happened during the feast had luckily been contained and only reached as far as the members of the 72 clans.

Some wanted to wage war but ultimately were silenced when Sirzechs himself admitted that he wasn't sure he could even beat one of their maids.

The Phenex's had been down in the dumps except for Ravel who despite everything still kept up the appearance of a noble.

Still, not everything had been bad. Akio had agreed that he wouldn't actively go against the devil's and he would even organize a peace conference between Heaven and themselves.

On top of that Rias's engagement with Riser was officially canceled as Riser was in no shape to inherit the house of Phenex.

This made Sirzechs happy as he himself truthfully wanted to stop the engagement but found it difficult as he was being actively opposed by the council.

Sirzechs just hoped that he could get Rias support from Akio before the council tried to set up a new engagement.

On another note, Diodora had gone missing the next morning after the feast, something that not even Ajuka could figure out.

.

.

.

In the dimension where Akio kept Ehit, two people could be seen being repeatedly tortured. At the entrance away from all the death traps a certain Dagon could be seen smiling as she watched the new resident being tortured ruthlessly.

This new resident was of course Diodora.

Akio had no reason to even give Diodora the chance to try and put his plans into action. As soon as he directed hostility at Akio that was enough for his fate to be sealed.

Meiru continued to watch the scene in front of her as Diodora and Ehit continually screamed out in undesirable pain.

(ORC room)

Rias could be seen smiling while rolling around in her chair. She was happily giggling with an elated expression.

Akeno who was in her usual spot watched with a smile at her usually serious king.

Rias was of course over the moon that she was now free of her engagement. That was only one part of why she was so happy.

The other reason for her over-elation could be seen plastered on her desk. It was a picture of Akio when he was dancing with Tracy. Conveniently, Tracy was completely taken out of the photo despite her being the one to do the beating.

The way he just casually ordered Riser's death as if crushing an insignificant ant, the way he did what even her own brother couldn't, it changed her.

She started to find him irresistible, something she had never thought would happen. It was something she couldn't decide whether it was love or religious faith.

Still, one thing for sure she would do whatever she needed to, to make herself worthy of him.

The first step of that was getting rid of Issei.

It was decided between the satan's and Rias herself that Issei would have his memory erased and then continue school life just as he did before. He would still live with the perks of being a devil but he probably wouldn't achieve much else.

The next step was some serious training.

She had already asked her brother to organize a training camp in the next few days for her peerage. She was determined more than even the time with Riser.

Her peerage although happy with their king's determination would soon find themselves on the verge of death because of the intensity.

(Kuoh Town)

"Nyaa"

In a small cafe somewhere in Kuoh a soft meow was heard. This cute animal noise against all expectations truthfully came from the mouth of a black-haired beauty who was holding an equally black cat.

Akio had taken Komi upon request to a cat cafe. It seemed at first she was too afraid of even approaching one of the cats, maybe overthinking the interaction.

As much as she had improved in her communication with people, it hadn't increased as much with animals.

Still, eventually one of the cats came to her on her own accord to which her happiness couldn't be contained.

Akio who saw this sight couldn't help but snap a picture. He also currently had a pure white cat resting on his lap.

The two spent time like that until Komi stood up with the cat and walked over to Akio. With a slight frown, she looked at Akio's lap where the cat lay.

Akio seeing the adorable sight silently moved the cat off his lap and put it at his side before he patted his lap.

With a quick movement, Komi immediately laid her body down on the bench and put her head on his lap. The cat that was previously in her arms now floated on an invisible platform as Komi kept petting it.

Akio used his left hand to pet his jealous wife as she began to for some reason pur.

Time was spent like that until their time was up and they made their way back home.

Komi would find herself embarrassed when she went to the bedroom that night as the picture of her holding the cat was fully displayed on the wall.
