Chapter 80: Chapter: 80
Chapter: 80
A bit later, after assuring Yasaka that I didn't need to contact Gabriel and that I could heal her daughter myself, Yasaka led us out of the woods and towards a teleportation formation that was waiting for her. I had forgotten these were actually a thing since on the Earth Marvel, I'd just been using my sling rings or apparition. The dimensional gap blocked the sling rings from working, and unfortunately, I'd never really practiced apparition or angelic teleportation–which was basically the same thing but sounded cooler.
[Bet you're regretting not practicing angelic teleportation now, huh?]
'Kind of.' The sling ring was just so superior I never bothered learning to teleport on my own. Even Voldemort, with massive magic reserves, can't apparate across the planet without risking maiming himself…
The three of us stepped inside the magic circle, and a flash of light later, I found myself staring at the interior of a Japanese-style home, complete with tatami floors and shoji sliding doors.
"Interesting architecture." Sif commented as she looked around curiously. I supposed this all would be a bit of a culture shock for her.
"So where's your daughter?" I asked.
"Kunou is this way." Yasaka briskly led us down a hallway towards another wing of the building. Outside another door, two male fox yokai stood guard. Both had only three tails each. "Thank you for your diligence, Maru and Koharu. I'll take over Kunou's safety from here," Yasaka said to the two. They bowed to her before leaving.
"I didn't know there were male kitsune." I said.
Yasaka nodded. "Yes, they are much weaker magically than the women though and are typically kept in our clan compounds for protection. Those two standing guard were more ceremonial than actually for Kunou's protection. She is the princess of the Kitsune and Kyoto Yokai faction, after all."
"So your men sit around all day and are solely used for procreation? How absurd." Sif scoffed.
"I mean, isn't that pretty much what the majority of women on Asgard do? You're kind of an outlier, Sif…" I said. Sif blushed. I think she took my words as a compliment when I was more of just stating a fact.
Yasaka gave me a puzzled look. "What about the Valkyries? They are all women, and their might is well known. I've heard tales that there's a young incredibly talented Valkyrie mage that goes by Rosweise who has become Odin's personal secretary."
"Odin's secretary?" Sif asked, confused.
"She's talking about a different Asgard, Sif. Not the one you're from. I'll tell you about it later." I explained. Yasaka shot me a curious look, but I waved her off. Sif nodded. I had no idea why a second Asgard existed on Earth DxD. All I know is that it had been here basically from the start. It's possible the DxD Asgardians were from another timeline and fled here to possibly escape their version of Ragnarok. I wouldn't know unless I asked the perverted DxD Odin though. I wasn't exactly jumping to do that either considering how detested the man is by pretty much every female supernatural being in the world. This was the man who made an innocent Issei Hyodou into the perverted protagonist he was in only one meeting. There was also no known way Odin didn't know he was corrupting the future Red Dragon Emperor as a child either. A god of his level would easily have been able to see the Sacred Gear hidden in Issei's soul.
I put those thoughts away for later. I had a little fox girl to heal right now. Getting on her smoking hot mother's good side was also a bonus.
I approached Kunou's bedside and cringed at what I saw. Her skin was almost purple, and she was taking ragged, harsh-sounding breaths. Yasaka explained that Kunou was in constant pain from the poison and that she had to be placed into a magical coma; otherwise, she'd be screaming right now.
"This is sick. Who would do this to a child?" Sif asked.
Yasaka shook her head. "We don't know their group's name. There were one or two fallen with the group, but the strange thing was that the group that attempted to kidnap her included many different races besides them." She explained. In any other circumstance, that would be a great sign that different races were starting to get along with each other. In this instance, though, it was bad. The failed kidnappers were obviously the Khaos Brigade. It appeared that their fallen angel members decided to take advantage of Azazel's sudden disappearance to launch this attack way earlier than they would have in canon.
I summoned [Twilight Healing] and placed my hands over the girl. A green glow enveloped her body, and I willed my Sacred Gear to purge the poison from her body.
"But that's… How do YOU have that?" Yasaka asked me accusingly as she watched me heal her daughter. Maybe she suspected that I stole this Sacred Gear from Asia Argento? She made no move to stop me from healing her daughter, though.
"This was a gift from my father to me, Lady Yasaka. You can rest assured that I did not steal this Sacred Gear from any human. It was bestowed upon me exclusively." I said. That was the excuse I had come up with if anyone ever asked about it in the future. They wouldn't exactly be able to argue it either because "God works in mysterious ways" and all that. Yasaka still gave me a look of suspicion and I've no doubt she'd use her information channels to verify my words later.
Kunou's complexion started to clear up, and her skin began to shift from sickly green to a more normal skin tone. Her breathing also drastically started to improve.
[-200 MP]
Whatever poison the Khaos Brigade used on the girl was nefarious and extremely deadly. To compare, it didn't take nearly that much MP to fully heal Tony Stark from his palladium poisoning. At the same time, though, the poison wasn't immediately lethal. They clearly wanted the girl to live for a while.
[Probably to force Yasaka to help them in return for a cure.]
'That's what I was thinking as well.' Which means… they'll be back soon to offer such a deal to Yasaka without knowing that I've already cured her daughter.
