Then the Reviews and Comments section.

Lost Dingo22: He just doesn't know it yet!.

Bearticguy7: Wow, you know what, I think Rean wouldn't be happy with the monster they created either, chances are how would have joined tye monster into attacking them.

yuzuk1: Your very welcome my friend.

maskedinsanity: Yeah, Diodora is all kinds of arrogant stupid, he truly believes he's untouchable, just watch his small role in the anime *shakes head* you will learn about what the Khaos Brigade have been doing since Rean's debut in his True Dragon Form, in the next chapter actually.

As for the Maidens, we'll I have something in mind for them, just know that they will be take care of and will have a chance to learn to do something new, something that will make them very happy!.

spellboundfool: Odin deserve it, he really was that much of ass to Rossweiss in the show, but Rean put a bit if rebellious spirit on her now! Odin better watch out! yeah, Rean wasn't tht interested in the party either! that's something you both share lol.

Yeah, Koneko hasher sight on Rika and she didn't even know! poor Rika, she doesn't know, just how persistent Koneko can be XD and yeah, that guy is alive still, you nusy have bee thinking of his fate in Harry's New Game Plus.

PanKeRio: Act cool? I think your confusing Rean with another MC, he's not one to do things to be cool, he's straight to the point, it's something that you should already know by now, or at least I think so.

And why would Rean offer a Job go Rossweiss, when they just met? just wait and let me cook a bit! jeez, the Arc just started you know? also, i do reread my work, but like I've said before and many times actually, I'm doing the best I can, I write new chapters at night and I'm usually super tired and sleepy at the time, writing my stories on the phone doesn't help either, but I am sorry about the errors and misspellings, I'll try to avoid that happening too much.

Aan Syaif: Your detection skill are on point my friend!.

RogueShadow222: Lol, Rean being Piccolo from TFS made laugh a bit, not going go lie, but Rean is a bit serious most of the time, but I will try to sneak something in the future, well see.

Also, yeah, people complain, but I think I got better at ignoring them now, I'll just continued to write the story as I like for me and you guys who really support me and acre about my stories, also I like Korika for the shipname lol.

shypunk: Your very welcome my friend.

Kri55555t00ffer: Hahaha you guessed it, just check this chapter and see!.

shinigami101505: Your very welcome my friend.

CrimsonSylvan: Yeah, the moment Diodora showed up in the story we all knew that he's gking to die very aggressively, just wait till next chapter! theres going to be a few scenes with Sona that will hint at her new found power and confidence, were just getting started! having a System of any sort is cheat enough, why not cheat even more then? get OP quick is always best!.

GreedElff: He sure is! and your very welcome my friend.

Guest: How will Diodora die? that's the surprise!.

DeHighLlama (Guest): Welcome to the current chapter! and thank you for the kind words, I really do try my best to write fun and enjoyable stories, whole also giving everyone a bit of spotlight! thank you for noticing that, I hope you continue to enjoy the story.

Irina Akashira: Yeah, it has to be deliberately for that to happen since the Rating Game system is fast! but even then, Rean and the girls can heal and even bring back other back to life if quick enough, so no worries.

I mean, those are some good suggestions, I would use Valerie, because she's already has a big role in Harry's New Game Plus, Ingvild won't show up until way later, the same with Nyx, but even so, I don't think I will add more DxD girls to the Harem.

Guest: Yeah, that was a very bad move on his part and yes Rossweiss deserves better for sure, those Devils are really the only fun ones to hand out with, a shame but it is what it is, though there's a few more fun Devils out there as well, Rean's just need to meet them.

Hayane234: Yup, pretty much hit the nail in the head.

scorpin17: Your very welcome my friend.

Jack Firerage: It's goof to hear from you my friend! also, love your summary of what happened in the pervious chapter lol.

phillyitalian: The funny thing is, that your pretty much right, everyone is just taking pictures and protecting the Ship! Rika is just a bit to dense to notice, well until Kaede pointed it out XD.

KitsuneTheWhite: Well, let's just say, that Diodora will be having a very bad day for sure.

Chapter 31.

I stayed with the young Devils for quite a while, though I did keep an eye on Koneko, in the show, her sister Kuroka shows up and causes her some trouble, Bikou also shows up with her, but the Monkey Yokai was caught by me and Yasaka when he showed up for Vali back in Kuoh.

Right now, the young Monkey Yokai is serving community service in Kyoto, Yasaka has him cleaning her Palace every single day and under watch from my Ghost Type Pokémon.

So yeah, Bikou is definitely not having a good time right now. the poor bastard had to clean a big as Japanese palace while being constantly pranked by Ghost Type Pokémon, definitely a harsh punishment, but that's what he deserves for fucking around with other Factions, needless to say, that Bikou won't be causing trouble for a long while.

So, I'm not even sure she'll show up, but I am keeping an eye on Koneko just in case, the other think I also noticed, was Diodora standing by a table by himself, he had that dumb fake smile on his face, while he drank so wine.

Though I did notice that he perked up at the mention of Asia earlier, if the bastards dares show up in Kuoh to start his nonsense, I will kill him, in a very gruesome way.

Though, I'm going to have to think about what to do with his Peerage, there's no way I'm leaving those poor girls to their fates, they don't deserve to be punished from the actions of an asshole like Diodora.

But that's for later, for now, I'll wait and see what he does first, suddenly Koneko tensed up and let go of my hand, I discreetly turned my gaze towards her and saw her stare at small black kitten that was walking around the Devils in the party.

Koneko stared at the black kitten with a frown on her face and after a few seconds, she left the group to follow it, Rias noticed this and looked worried, but not wanting her to get involved, I pulled on her ahoge to ge her attention.

She winced and the let out a small "ouch" before turning to look at me with a glare, I just grinned at her caused I found her reaction funny but still explained myself to her "don't worry, I'll go check on Koneko, you stay here and mingle".

Rias frowned a bit but then nodded, knowing she can trust me with Koneko "okay, but if something happens to Koneko, Rika will get very upset with you".

I sweatdropped at that, I can actually imagine Rika giving me the cold shoulder for a while, if something were to happen to Koneko, she might not show it and might even deny it, but Rika is pretty attached to Koneko as well.

So, I better go and keep her safe, I nodded to Rias and gave her a thumbs up, with that done, I then went to follow Koneko, finding out where she went was easy with my Aura Sense, so i was able to catch up to her quick.

So, I found myself following her out into the forest surrounding the building where the party for the Youth Gathering is taking place and soon enough, we arrived where Kuroka was waiting for Koneko.

Koneko had been very tense, when she noticed a black cat roaming around the party without anyone noticing it's presence, she immediately noticed the mild sensation of Senjutsu on the black cat, that gave her a clue as to how the cat hasn't been noticed yet.

But that also told her, that someone she knew was around, someone she didn't want too see anytime soon, but she knew this person is trouble and she couldn't let her do whatever she has planned to do here.

Not if meant putting her friends in danger, she would never let her sister Kuroka hurt those she loves, so Koneko chose to follow the black cat and find her big sister to put a stop, to whatever plans she has.

It took a few minutes, but eventually she arrived where the black cat was going and watch it jump on a tree and climbed up to one of it's branches, in that branch, she found her sister lazily laying on it and staring down at her with clear amusement in her eyes.

This made Koneko feel rather annoyed, here she was stressing about her sister being around here and Kuroka seems to be having fun instead, but Rika had told her once, that when she's feels stressed or angry, to take a big breath and calm herself.

So Koneko did that, she took a big breath and then exhaled, Kuroka noticed this and silently watched as her little sister calm herself down, Koneko then looked up towards Kuroka and asked "what are you doing here Kuroka?".

The black colored Nekoshou stared at Koneko for a few seconds, but then she huffed and shook her head "nya... how cold of you Shirone, its been a while since we've seen each other and you don't even say hi? or a how are you?".

Koneko shrugged and shook her head "you never take things seriously, I hate that about you, you know? so why should I humor you?".

Kuroka grinned and then laughed a bit "you've grown bold Shirone, that's good, as for what I'm doing here? I'm just checking this party out, things where I work are boring right now.

Everyone is so scared of that massive Dragon that appeared out of nowhere, so.much in fac, that no one wants to do anything right now, not without getting some information first.

But that just makes things dull, so I came here to have some fun, but it looks like Iike I got lucky today, since I found you in the party! I'm even surprised that you could see this child and follow her to me".

Kuroka petted the black cat that was now laying besides her, Koneko just stared at Kuroka and said "I could sense Senjutsu on it, so I immediately knew that you had to be involved".

Kuroka smirked and then sent her familiar back home, after that she jumped off the branch she was just laying on and landed in front of Koneko, Kuroka then said "well done, but since you're here, I think it's time I take you back with me".

Koneko frowned and shook her head "I don't want to".

Kuroka frowned at her little sister defiance "and why not? don't tell me you like being a pet to that Gremory brat?".

Koneko glared at Kuroka, she definitely didn't like Kuroka's words against Rias "Rias is like a hig sister to me, so is Akeno and Kiba is a brother, even pervy Issei is like a big brother as well, they're my family.

Much more than you ever been anyways, I won't leave them, I won't be like you and abandoned them, besides I have someone very important to me now, I won't leave her".

Kuroka narrowed her eyes at Koneko, the jabs at her and the fact that koneko declared her friends as family hit her hard, but Koneko didn't seem to care though.

I watched everything go down from a fair distance away, first of all, Koneko is so different from her canon self, at this point, the Koneko of the show was feeling down at her lack of improvement and was also terrified of Kuroka.

But the Koneko I know, is standing up to Kuroka, there's no fear, nor hesitation, sure she's tense because Kuroka is a very powerful and dangerous individual, but Koneno is confronting her sister with confidence in her voice.

Also, I'm pretty sure she just confesses her feelings for Rika to Kuroka, my sister better watch herself, because Koneko is definitely coming after her heart and if she's not careful she'll find herself married to Koneko someday.

Either way, Kuroka did not seem happy with what Koneko just said to her, it must have hit her hard to hear her little sister denounce her and practically declare others to be her family, much more than her too.

So Kuroka snarled in anger "don't tell me you actually care for those Devils? that Gremory brat thinks of you as a pet Shirone! she even replaced your name... the name I gave you when you were born!.

And what's this about someone very important to you? did you get a mate? a female one at that? are you crazy? we need to bring the Nekoshou race back from extinction Shirone!".

Ah, Kuroka has snapped, she grew even more angry when Koneko just shrugged at her questiona "I don't need the name Shirone anymore, Rias treats me like family, sure she's a bit weird sometimes, lazy and a big Otaku-".

Back at the party.

Rias suddenly flinched and trembled as she grabbed hold of a table nearby and held her chest in pain, Akeno and Sona noticed this and raised an eyebrow at her.

But Rias just looked like she wanted to cry and said "s-somone just roasted me... I felt it in my heart! who would make fun of me like this!?".

Both Sona and Akeno deadpanned at Rias for a good few seconds for being so dramatic, either way, they just turned around a moment later and continued to eat, while Rias looked at them in betrayal for ignoring her pain.

Koneko just went on "-but Rias has done nothing but be there and support me wherever I needed help, she was there when you weren't, so was every one of my friends and, so what if I got a mate! that's none of your business!".

Damn, Koneko didn't even deny being Rika's mate, that's funny, Kuroka however, didn't find it amusing and was now full on glaring at Koneko, she then loudly said "doesn't matter! I'll just take you with me by force then, I'm sure you'll get used to my group and your new home soon enough! for now sleep!".

Kuroka's energy flared, no doubt wanting to put Koneko to sleep, but I quickly snapped my fingers and called out the name of one of my skills "Safeguard!".

A veil of purple light engulfed Koneko's body, who jumped back to get away from Kuroka, her sleep spell splashed over Koneko and not affected her at all, Koneko soon landed on the ground and then smiled as she called out to me aloud "Rean... so you followed me".

I walked out of the trees and walked up to Koneko's side, she quickly grabbed my hand and tightly gripped it, I just smiled at her "of course I did, I wasn't about to just let someone take you away either, Rika would never forgive me.

Your my sister's friend Koneko, that makes you my friend as well and as you know, I would do anything for my friends".

Koneko smiled and nodded "then... I'll call you big brother, caused your Rika's big brother and someday you'll become my big brother for real".

I chuckled and shook my head "not even going to pretend huh? oh well, I think mom will be a bit disappointed that she won't be getting grandchildren from Rika, but she'll get over it, just take it easy with my sister okay? she's definitely not ready nor prepared for all of this".

Koneko softly smiled and nodded "I'll take it slow... I just need to keep the fried chicken away from Rika".

Poor Ravel, she has been tagged as a love rival and she doesn't even know, though I don't think she's after my sister's heart, more than likely, she consider Rika her best friend.

But, I pushed that aside for now and turned my attention to Kuroka, the black Nekoshou had her ear flat against her ears while staring at me with wide eyes full of shock and fear, it was the same look Hanako, Kaede's mother gave me when she first saw me.

Kuroka looked just about ready to leave right now, but she was more angry than scared at me, she was glaring at the way Koneko was holding my hand and how she called me.

So she hissed at me "who are you!? no! what are you!?".

I just smiled at Kuroka and smiled "you heard Koneko, I'm her older brother, but I'll tell you my name, I'm Rean Hayashi".

Kuroka's ears stood up straight and looked at me with a confused look on her eyes "Hayashi... that clan of monster hunters from Japan? but I heard they were all gone, you guys are heartless bastards! get away from Shirone!".

Kuroka, quickly drewn in Natural Energy and then launched herself towards me, but I just waved my hand at her, purple stars made out of energy flew from my hand and headed straight to Kuroka.

The black Nekoshou jumped out of the way and dodged the purple colored stars, she sent me a smug smirk and was about to resume running towards me, but then noticed the grin in was giving her.

Her eyes suddenly widen and she quickly threw herself to the side, she barely dodged my Swift attack, she rolled on the ground and immediately stood up, only to gape when she saw my Swift attack turn in maid air and headed straight to her again.

Kuroka stood up and took off running with my Swift attack following her close behind her, the black Nekoshou ran, jumped from tree to tree and rolled on the ground none stop, in order to avoid the purple colored energy stars from reaching her.

Koneko suddenly pullednon my hand, which made me turned my head towards her, she deadpanned at me and then said "your just messing with her aren't you?".

I chuckled and nodded to Koneko "a little bit, but how did you know?".

Koneko shook her head but the lightly laughed "I know just how powerful you are big brother, and I seen that moved used by Pokémon before, I also know it's way faster than this and never misses, Kaede told me that too".

I nodded and smiled "I guess Kaede has been learning a lot about Pokémon lately, especially because, she now has them so very close".

I suddenly flicked my finger towards Kuroka, my Swift attack reacted right away and picked up speed, the Normal Type attack quickly reached Kuroka and slammed against her back.

Each purple star exploded causing Kuroka to yell out in pain, until she was engulfed in explosions and smoke, she was then sent flying out of the smoke after a bit, she then crashed against the ground, rolled a few times until she stopped a fair distance away from us and layed on the ground breathing hard.

Kuroka quickly rolled to her back and huffed for both Oxigen and in pain, she then grunted and said "nyah... that hurt so much! but why? I'm using Senjutsu...".

Koneko and I walked up to her side and looked down at her, I then decided to give here a small explanation "my energy is unique, it can by pass defenses, resistances and immunities, not only that, it can cause spiritual, energy and soul damage as well.

Senjutsu wouldn't be able to protect you from its effects, now, I will be taking you to Neo Kyoto and Yasaka will be interrogating you about what happened to you".

At the mention of Yasaka, Kuroka's eyes widen and she immediately pushed herself up, she attempted to kick me away but I blocked all her kicks with one arm, seeing that her surprise attack failed, Kuroka jumped pushed herself away and landed on her feet a fair distance away.

She glared at me and tense her legs, the black Nekoshou snarled and launched herself towards me, or rather towards Koneko, more than likely, she was hoping to get her away from me, Koneko just stood there and deadpanned at her sister.

She knew I wasn't going to let Kuroka get to her and I proved her right a few seconds later, my hand glowed green with Grass Type Energy and I then quickly snapped my fingers "Grass Knot".

My Grass Type attack activated right away and Kuroka found her foot getting wrapped around by a Grass, she nyaed in surprise as she tripped face first and began to harshy roll on the ground from the momentum she had, in fact she even bounced a few times before stopping right in front of Koneko, while being face down on the ground.

Koneko just looked down at her sister and shook her head "you can't win against big brother Rean, you don't know who you're dealing with and he's being nice right now".

Kuroka groaned in pain, though it sounded muffled since she was kissing the ground right now, a few seconds later, she looked up towards Koneko and glared at her "your enjoying this aren't you".

Koneko smiled and nodded "yes, you do deserve a beating you know?".

Kuroka let her face dropped on the ground and groaned again, I chuckled at her situation finding it funny, however, I suddenly sensed an energy signature appeared out of nowhere.

I looked up towards a tree branch and saw space being cut open, from the whole in space Arthur Pendragon stepped out of the opening he made in space and looked down towards Kuroka.

Arthur soon frowned when be noticed the condition she was in "Kuroka, you were just supposed to scout and gather information, why are on the ground and fighting someone?".

Kuroka growled and yelled at Arthur from her place on the ground "shut up and help me!".

Arthur sighed and then dropped himself from the branch he appeared on, he then faced towars me and Koneko as soon as he landed on the ground "sorry, but I can't let you capture Kuroka, I'm afraid I'm going to have to hurt you".

Arthur lifted Caliburn and pointed towards me, I let go of Koneko's hand and walked forward, but just in case, I decided to call on someone to keep an eye on Kuroka and Koneko "Solgaleo!".

My Steel and Psychic Type Legendary Pokémon appeared in a burst of white light, he roared and then walked up to me, I gave him a headpat and he seemed to be very happy about it thevery loud purr he was giving me, was proof of that.

I then smiled and stared at Arthur who tense up at the sight of Solgaleo, I'm not surprised he got tense, Solgaleo does look very impressive and dangerous, he is a big white lion, and anyone would be cautious of him at first sight.

But, luckily for Arthur, he wasn't going to have to fight Solgaleo, so I spoke to my Legendary Pokémon "Solgaleo, go and keep guard over the black haired Nekoshou and keep Koneko safe".

Solgaleo nodded and purred, I chuckled and give him a couple of chin scratches, Solgaleo, now very happy at the affection he was given he quickly walked over Kuroka and Koneko.

He soon stepped on top Kuroka as he approached her, which made her squeak and grunt, he then pulled Koneko towards him and began to give her a tongue bath, which had her deadpanning at me, especially because I chuckled at her predicament.

She is after all, a sort of lion cub to Solgaleo, so it was natural that he would act like that to her, still, if you look closely to her eyes, you could see a hint of amusement and contentment.

But I pushed that aside and turned my head towards Arthur, who sseemed to have relaxed now that he knew that Solgaleo wasn't going to attack him, I stared at him and then began to speak "so your Arthur Pendragon... I heard that your an excellent swordsman".

Arthur narrowed his eyes at me "... so you know who I am, I'm afraid I have no idea who you are though, which leads me to wonder, just how do you know who I am?".

I smiled and transformed Excalibur from her Bracelet Mode, into her Tachi Mode, Arthur immediately moved his gaze towards my sword and stared at it, I then pointed her at him "I'm Rean Hayashi, practitioner and master rank of the Eight Leaves, One Blade style.

As a swordsman, I'm always looking for a challenge, a member of the Pendragon Family, one wielding Calibu,r is bound to be known by someone like me".

Arthur gazed at my eyes and then nodded "I see... I believe I've never heard of the Eight Leaves, One Blade Style, but as a fellow swordsman, I can wait to test my steel against it".

Arthur immediately took his battle stance, it was a relaxed one, with Caliburn pointing downward, but his defense is solid and didn't have many openings, I could instantly tell that he's a very talented individual with the sword.

I've been wanting to have a sword fight with someone with talent with the sword, Kiba is not even close to be able to put up a challenge, Tomoe is still learning the Eight Leaves, One Blade style and has a way to go still.

But Arthur Pendragon is known as a genius, the fact that he's wielding Caliburn, shows me that he's at the very least worthy of handling its power and that got me a bit excited.

So I will be only fighting with Excalibur and sword skills, no Magic, no Pokémon moves, nothing but me and Excalibur.

So I took my sword style stance, I summoned Avalon and sheathed Excalibur into it as I bent my knees, while facing towards Arthur, I put my hand on Excalibur's handle and got ready.

Arthur raised an eyebrow and immediately moved his stance a bit, it seems that seeing my own stance, he decided to take this match seriously, he tightened his defense and relaxed his body.

I realized right away, that he was getting ready to react as quickly as he could, a good idea when facing someone who uses a Quick Draw sword style.

But the Eight Leaves, One Blade style is no simple Quick Draw sword style, so I grinned and him and gathered a bit of energy within Excalibur, suddenly I received a notification from my Gamer System.

But, I pushed it aside for now and chose to focus on this battle, Arthur tensed up, no doubt sensing my energy gather on my sword, but I quickly made my move "Eight Leaves One Blade style! Fatal Arc Slash!".

I moved in instant, I drew Excalibur fast and quick while slashing at Arthur's direction, an Arc Wave of energy shot out of Excalibur's Blade and flew straight towards Arthur.

The Pendragon Heir widen his eyes in surprise and quickly raising Caliburn to defend, he barely made it in time, but the force behind my technique immediately pushed him back.

Arthur grunted from the exertion he was using to hold back my technique, but even then he was dragged back a fair distance away, he even began to scream before he was finally able to swing Caliburn to the side and deflect the Arc wave of energy to the side.

But the Arc wave was still able cut into his cheek as it was sent aside, and then proceeded to keep going and cut through a group of trees on its way until the technique lost momentum and dissipated, Arthur turned his head towards where my technique went through and began to sweat at the destruction it brought.

He quickly turned to face me and narrowed his eyes "that was just one swing... and you cut through this forest like it was nothing, if it wasn't because I have Caliburn, I would have died being cut in half".

I smiled and then said "that was just a practice swing, get ready!".

Arthur widened his eyes, in a blink of an eye, I appeared right in front of him ready to slash at him, he quickly raised Caliburn as I swung Excalibur at him, our blades the began to clash against each other.

Loud bangs, clangs and sonic booms filled the area as I swung my Excalibur and Arthur struggled to avoid getting bisected, but I could see that he was struggling to keep up, with the level of power I was currently using.

Still, I was very much impressed with his instincts and abilities, even though he was currently struggling, he was somehow adapting and getting better as we clashed.

Not enough to pose a threat, but it was showing nonetheless, the Pendragon bloodline is no joke it seems, suddenly Arthur swung down and I quickly sidestepped his downward slash.

His attack missed me entirely, which caused him to click his tongue and try to step back, but I following close behind and jabbed Excalibur's hilt on his ribs, he grunted in pain, but quickly swung Caliburn towards me.

I jumped up, dodging his side swing, and swung at him from mid air, he didn't expect such a dynamic counter attack, so he was a bit slow to get out of the way, ending up getting cut in the shoulder.

He hissed in pain and jumped back, but I quickly swung Excalibur along the ground as soon as I landed on the and towards Arthur "Demonic Chaos!".

Three big energy shockwave traveled along the ground and towards Arthur while he was in mid air still, he frowned and as soon as his feet touched the ground, he rolled to the side to avoid my Sworld Skill.

He barely avoided the first two energy shockwaves, but the third and last one, clipped him in the legs and detonated, Arthur was instantly sent flying and crashing onto the ground from the explosion caused by my sword skill.

I stood at the ready and watched begin to stand up, he stabbed Caliburn into the ground and pushed himself up, he then stared at me while huffing from pain and tiredness "long range sword techniques... amazing".

I smiled and nodded "thank you, but that's just a small demonstration of the many sword techniques I've picked up".

Arthur nodded and then stood up straight "then let me return the favor, with a sword technique of my own!".

Arthur suddenly swung Caliburn all around him, multiple small holes were cut open in the air surrounding him and then he quickly began to stab Caliburn into each hole.

Holes in space began to open up around me and Caliburn sprung out of each one looking to stab me, but I quickly twirled Excalibur in my hand and gathered energy into Excalibur as I stabbed it into the ground " back off! Guardian Field!".

A barrier of light surrounded me from a magic circle that materialized underneath me, the barrier not only stopped Caliburn's attack but pushed it back as well, which resulted in Arthur getting hit with the backlash.

He was blasted from all directions multiple times causing him to scream in pain and then get sent crashing into the ground behind him, the holes around me immediately closed and Arthur was taken down.

I pulled Excalibur out of the ground and stood up straight, I then gazed towards Arthur who was now struggling to stand up, but he eventually did so and stared at me in disbelief, he eventually mustered the will to speak after a few seconds "how?... that technique is supposed to hit through multiple spots in time and space.

It should be impossible to dodge, much less block, this makes no sense at all".

I closed my eyes, it really was a very powerful and precise technique, one that many would be hard pressed to see, much less sense it coming, but to me? a Dragon God with Conceptual control over Time and Space? well, I could cleary see and sense each attack coming from the very flow of time through space.

I was literally, the worst person to try such a technique on, so I felt a little bad and decided to explain on what he did wrong "your technique is good, it needs some polishing but many would find it hard to survive such an attack.

But I'm the worst enemy to try such a technique on, I have Domains over Space and Time, so I could see you attacks coming, with that, I was able to counter it and make you suffer the backlash of such technique being blocked through multiple points in the flow of time".

Arthur sighed and looked down "you defeated me... so what's next? are you going to hand me over to the Devils?".

I shook my head "fuck no".

Arthur widen his eyes and looked very perplexed st the moment "but why? the Devils would love to get their hands on a Pendragon, especially one wielding Caliburn... why would you not hand me over? i'm sure they would award you quite well".

I shrugged and shook my head "well, first of all, I'm not a Devil nor do I belong to their Faction, I couldn't care less what they could give me and quite frankly, with the exception of a few Devils, they can all go die for all I care".

Arthur gaped at me for a few seconds but then sighed "I see... then what are you going to do with me?".

I transformed Excalibur back into her Bracelet Form and them walked over Solgaleo, Koneko and Kuroka "you can leave, I won't let you take Kuroka though, she has a lot to explain and answer to".

Arthur turned to look at me and stared as I reached Solgaleo, who was hugging Koneko with his big paw and resting his head on top of hers, I'm so glad Koneko is a Rook, otherwise, her neck would have snapped by the weight of my Steel and Psychic Legendary Pokémon.

I reached over Solgaleo and began to scratch behind his ears which had him purring, Koneko looked amused while, Kuroka grunted and groaned in pain from being crushed by Solgaleo, who still had his weight on top of her.

Arthur sighed and then stood up straight, though he struggled to do so, he received quite a bit of damage after all "why are you letting me go? I'm sure you know that I'm not a good guy".

I just continued to give Solgaleo a bit of affection, but still answered Arthur's question "because your a very talented swordsman and would like to cross swords with you again.

Plus, there's something inside me, telling me to let you go, an instinct if you will, I don't know what it is but I always listen to my instincts" and it was true, something inside me told me not to hurt Arthur to much.

I didn't know where or why I was feeling like that, but well, it didn't matter, I had no intention of capturing Arthur, nor hand him to the Devils, after all, they would just enslave him or use him as a tool.

No one deserves that, Arthur stared at me and then smiled "I also had this odd feeling telling me not to hurt you... I never really believe in all of this nonsense of listening to my heart and what not.

But, this time it seems like I should listen to it... thank you Rean Hayashi, but be warned! next time we cross swords! things will be different".

I turned my head towards Arthur and gave him a grin "I'm looking forward to it Arthur Pendragon, until next time".

Arthur nodded, he the swung Caliburn behind him and a hole in space opened, he was about to step through but stopped and turned his head towards me "... please be kind to Kuroka, she's not as bad as she seems".

I nodded at Arthur letting him know that he can go in peace, I know that Kuroka has suffered a lot, so I wasn't about to be cruel or heartless, I'm just messing with her a bit, but the reason I'm taking her to Yasaka, is because she wants to know what happened to her.

That whole excuse the Devils told her about her going insane from using Senjutsu, was something she never believed, she is a Sage as well after all, so she knew something else was going on and she wanted to know what.

Arthur smiled and then walked through the opening he made in space with Caliburn, the opening soon closed up andhe was gone, meanwhile I patted Solgaleo on the side of his cheek "thank you Solgaleo, now, can you do me a favor and take Kuroka to Yasaka?".

Solgaleo nodded, he then let go of Koneko, who I quickly picked up and pulled away from the embrace of my Steel and Psychic Type Pokémon, I then stood her besides her and fixed her clothes and cleaned her with Magic.

Meanwhile Solgaleo stood up and then tit the nape of Kuroka's black Kimono and picked her of like a kitten, Kuroka only grunted and slumped on defeat, Solgaleo smiled and then teleported back home to deliver Kuroka to Yasaka.

Koneko grabbed my hand and together we began to walk back towards the party, she suddenly looked up at me and then asked "what's going to happen to my sister?".

I smiled at her, despite everything, Koneko still cares about her sister and thats a good sign for the future "she's going to be interrogated, there's a lot that doesn't make sense to Yasaka about what happened with her, so we think there's more going on, but don't worry, I'll inform you of what we find out".

Koneko smiled and nodded "thank you big brother Rean".

I chuckled and nodded "your welcome Koneko".

And done!.

Bam! Kuroka appeared and tried to take Koneko away! gasp! Rika would have not like that one bit lol, but then, Arthur Pendragon also showed up an Rean wanted to have a little match with him, still, the Pendragon wasn't strong enough go put up a good fight agains Rean.

But that's a given! still he did show off a bit of his talent and skill in using Caliburn! but there's more going on here, but what is it? you guys will have to wait to find out.

Kuroka is also on her way to Yasaka, who will be interrogating her about what happened, things will soon change for her, hopefully for the better, but that's it from me tonight guys, this Old Black Fox is tired, so goodnight and see you all later.
