Sudden Visit from the Not Dead Grandfather
Touta is not entirely sure about the situation he finds himself in, this man Fate just confirmed that his grandfather who was supposed to be dead for twenty years now has been alive after all this time and saying that he needs the boy's in saving him and the people in the solar system.
This started to feel about freaky.
"Touta, please hold off your question for now. I have a critical question to ask him." Karin said.
"Sure, whatever you need to ask him, babe." Touta decided to let her ask since he is still wrapping his head around this.
"You said you know everything there is to know, am I correct?" Karin asked Fate.
"Yes." Fate answered as he waits for her question.
"Then let me ask you one thing. I want to know who ultimately loved this Negi Springfield more, yourself or Mistress Yukihime?" Karin asked her ultimate question.
This caught everyone by surprise as the ones next to her almost fell down comedically from that weird question coming from Karin, Fate was even surprised by this even though his face doesn't show it on the outside.
"What in the serious Hell fuck are you asking him such a shitty question that is useless?" Touta asked yelling at his second girlfriend.
"Money and women are always important information." Karin stated.
"But what does that have anything to do with here and about what fucking relationship my grandfather had?" Touta asked.
"There have been rumors of a sorted relationship between your grandfather and our dear mistress. Those rumors wave heavy on me." Karin explained her reason for asking the question.
"Don't you realize how in trouble you are in with Yukihime right now?" Touta said.
"Karin." Yukihime called out, causing the two lovers to look up at the vampire woman.
"Report to my room later, understand. And Touta, you will be there as well." Yukihime ordered, clearly being angry about Karin asking such a question as a time like this, especially when she is already a lover for Touta right now in this life.
"Yes, ma'am." Karin said.
"You pissed her off! It's like you're being called down to the principal's office for a beating!" Touta feared that Yukihime may want to have a hate sex for Karin having such to ask that question.
"I guess I'll have to give you an answer." Fate decided to just answer the girl's question or else she might not let it down.
"You seem to have the wrong idea. Yukihime was originally in love with his father, his name was Nagi, but that's a story for another time. As for Yukihime and Negi's relationship, all I can say is…" But Fate stopped his sentence when he felt the air around him getting colder, which means the woman wants him to shut up. "Well, I think I'll just avoid that subject."
"I can say he was a very popular man. As for whom loved him the most between the two of us, I can tell you I really don't care about that." Fate stated, never being fond of romance.
"So then, what about you, Fate Averruncus?" Karin asked him directly.
"I do not hold love for anyone." Fate answered.
"Lair." Karin believed Fate does at least care for someone, and that is Negi Springfield since he just said that he wants to save him.
"It's my turn." Kuroumaru stepped up.
"Answer me, Fate. We're you just saying that without Touta's help, his grandfather would perish and the rest of the world with me. My question is, is this an urgent matter that needs attending to now?" Kuromaru asked and got into his stance just being cautious of this man.
Fate was surprised by this careful question from this boy, guess he must've done some thinking that concerns for Touta which impresses Fate.
"You must be Kuromaru, correct? That is a good question you just ask of me. The matter isn't hugely pressing, I already had to wait 20 such years as it is." Fate answered.
"So, then you would admit that Touta has no reason to accompany immediately." Kuromaru stated.
"I suppose." Fate said, but he isn't giving up on Touta if that's what they were hoping for.
"Nice one, Kuromaru. I think you got the guy to leave me alone for a while." Touta said with a hand on Kuromaru's shoulder, making him smile.
"I might give you a reward later when your body becomes a little more girly." Touta grinned with a wink, causing Kuromaru to blush like crazy in shock of that.
"Touta! Not in front of the man we're trying to interrogate!" Kuromaru exclaimed, but this only made Touta chuckle.
"Alright, looks like I'm the last one to ask, Fate. After listening to you talk for a while, I can tell that you've trying to do something like this goal of helping my grandfather may seen like a good guy thing, but… I'm also starting to see that your methods are shit that you would even cross certain lines that could never be cross." Touta crossed his arms.
"So, my question for you is… Were you the ones who killed by parents two years ago?" Touta said with a dark glare while putting on his smile.
Fate was a little surprise that Touta would even ask that kind of question when it has nothing to do with his grandfather directly, guess that must be mean that he wants to find out for himself other than hearing about Negi from another source.
"Yes. I did." Fate admitted without flaw.
"…I see." Touta said before he immediately powers up his demonic power with his arms covered in the demonic armor and summon his Dante Sword.
"Thanks for helping me solve that big mystery that has been bothering me for two years, now I'm going to avenge my parents by beating the shit out of you that you'll be begging for death!" Touta declared.
"Touta, wait!" Kuromaru believed that Touta doesn't need to go that far.
Fate holds up one hand to ready himself for another fight with Touta and his strange new demon powers, this is also something that has been wondering in his mind since he has first seen it back in that tower.
"(I knew Touta would be powerful since he is the grandson of Negi Springfield, but this power. The power of a demon, where did that come from and how on earth did, he even get it? I was very sure that was never included in his creating.)" Fate thought wondered.
"(And that sword, I've only seen one man wielded that sword before, so why does he have it?)" Fate thought glared at the Dante Sword.
But just when Touta was about to beat the living shit out of Fate for what he has done to his parents, a small white magic circle symbol appeared behind on his shoulder and then another white magic circle appeared for all to see only this one is bigger.
"What the fuck is that?" Touta was shocked as everyone else is.
Another freaky thing happens when what appears to be a humanoid figure coming out of the magic circle, and then the white stuff dissipates revealing a young man.
Yukihime and Fate were shocked to see this young man for they already know who that is, the man they knew once many years ago.
"Hello, Touta." The young man greeted Touta.
"But you're…" Touta gasped, having seen this man before all too well.
(Flashback)
The scene shows Touta at the graveyard where he visited his dead parents, and when the ghost of that young man appeared.
"I'll be waiting for you at the top of the tower." The young boy said suddenly changing to a full-grown adult and disappears.
(Flashback End)
"He's here…" Yukihime said.
"It's Negi!" Fate was surprised to see the man he once respected in his life.
"No fucking way, are you for real? You're really Negi, and that you're my grandfather?" Touta asked in shock.
"That I am, Touta. I am your real grandfather, Negi Springfield." Negi confirmed, the other UQ Holders are absolutely shocked that they are meeting THE Negi Springfield right here and now.
"Hello Fate, it's been a while. I see you're looking solemn pouty as always." Negi greeted, but Fate only responded with a glare.
"But, Master there, it seems your expression has soften a bit over time. I like seeing you like that, it looks good on you." Negi complimented which surprises Yukihime.
"(It's not just a stored image, he's communicating.)" Yukihime thought realized, which means there must something on Touta that is allowing this to happen.
"(Kuromaru.)" Yukihime contacted Kuromaru into his mind.
"(Telepathy?)" Kuromaru was surprised to hear that Yukihime is contacting him in the mind but knew it must be important.
"(Yes, Miss Yukihime.)" Kuromaru responded.
"(There must be something on Touta that's letting him communicate like this. Find it and remove it.)" Yukihime ordered, fearing that Negi could tell Touta something he should not hear right now.
"(Understood.)" Kuromaru went along with it and move carefully closer to Touta without being notice.
"Hey gramps, you've been calling out to me about going to the top of the tower for at least a few times. Why do you want me to go there so badly?" Touta asked.
"Because I have something I need to tell you. I would like to tell you all about it now, but there's no time left for it anymore. So, I'll just say this one thing before I go." Negi answered.
"(No time left? Does that mean this communicating now is only for a short time?)" Touta thought wondered.
"Don't believe him, Touta. What Fate said to you just now isn't the truth." Negi revealed about Fate's explanation moments ago being a lie.
"Negi!" Fate yelled at Negi, trying to convince him not to say anything about "That" to Touta.
"I understand why, Fate. You were saying it for Touta's sake. I get all of that, I do. But I… want him to know the truth." Negi stated, him being the one to tell his grandson.
"(Hold on, what exactly is my grandfather saying? That Fate didn't kill my parents?)" Touta thought felt confused, knowing that they definitely died two years ago.
Kuromaru got closer to Touta and spotted the magic white circle on him. He feels bad about having to cut off this reunion of Touta and his grandfather, but he has to carry out his order for Yukihime probably from something that could be a very sensitive he shouldn't hear.
"Listen here, Touta. You really aren't what you think." Negi said.
Kuromaru draw her sword to cut the white magic circle in half, but that was stopped by the Devil Sword Dante having block Kuromaru's blade in the last second.
"What the…?!" Kuromaru was shocked.
"Oh no." Yukihime feared that Touta might have sensed him coming in to take the communication.
"What the what?! Why is my sword moving without my permission?" Touta gasped.
"(Huh, he didn't notice Kuromaru?)" Yukihime thought shocked.
"Whoa, now! Let's not do anything dramatic, I think the kid deserves to know more about himself to see things more clearly." A voice coming from the demon sword said.
"Wait, that voice. I heard it before, when I picked up this sword." Touta recognized that voice.
"You got that right, and now using a little demon magic on this communication spell to give myself a full appearance to you all." The voice said as the demonic aura from the sword made contact with the white magic circle causing a little black spark of electricity then to the bigger one.
"Oh my, this is certainly unexpected. I never would have thought to see you again even like this, Dante." Negi was surprised by this.
"What can I say? I'm just too awesome to be silent even in death." The voice known as Dante appeared next to Negi showing himself to everyone.
Dante is a man with white hair and blue eyes and appears to be a little older even though he also looks young. He wears a red coat short sleeved, with numerous gold-colored studs decorating the shoulders, collar, and chest, and a single zipper on the front, yet Dante is never seen zipping it up, red pants, yet they are almost completely covered sans his crotch and rear by long, black leather motorcycle chaps featuring a brown, cowboy boot design around the ankles. He wears black, loafer looking boots, and black gloves exposing his knuckles and index finger on each hand, and his pants are wrapped with a black belt featuring a silver emblem decorated with a demonic skull. The coat is given a much more detailed and stylish look, with Western and Italian features, and a deep red, almost crimson color. Underneath the coat Dante wears a black, zipped up undershirt with three clasps closed together with ornate, golden buckles, and medium length sleeves that can be seen passing his shoulders. This undershirt is also zipped up just below his neck and features an upturned collar which complements the one on his coat.
"What the fuck?! Dante is here too!" Yukihime gasped even more in shock.
"(But how? There's no way Dante should even be here.)" Fate thought clutched his fists.
"Who is that guy?" Ikku asked, not sure on what is going on anymore.
"Guys, I think he was the guy who owned this sword before me. That means he was the one who fought both Yukihime and Fate!" Touta gasped.
"That's me, the one and only awesome Devil Hunter, Dante!" Dante smirked.
"Hey there Evangeline, working that body. Better than the tiny one and the name you're going by, Yukihime. Sounds hot too." Dante flirted, causing Yukihime to feel anger with a tick mark on her head.
"Back the fuck off! That's my woman you're flirting with!" Touta yelled in rage.
"Sorry about that. But you gotta admit, she's fucking hot that she could make any men go shit crazy for that bod like that." Dante pointed out, and an icicle spike went right through him by an angry Yukihime.
"You are so lucky you're dead." Yukihime glared.
"What are you doing here, Dante? How are you even here at all?" Fate demanded to know.
"I see you're still the pouty king." Dante joked, making Touta laugh.
"(Pouty king. I'm going to use that.)" Touta thought smiled.
"But if you must know, it's only possible because of Touta and what's in his blood." Dante pointed at Touta.
"Me, in my blood?" Touta was confused on that.
"The blood of our family, which also means your family, Touta Konoe." Another voice said, and another soul appeared next to Dante.
"Who is that?" Touta asked.
"I am Sparda, and I'm glad that you have awaken your inner Devil to become this strong, Touta." Sparda reveled himself.
Sparda appears to be a slightly-larger-than-human-sized, vaguely insectoid demon with clawed hands, a scaly hide, a pair of downward-facing ram horns, chiropteran wings with beetle-like wings underneath, hooves for feet, and reptilian spines protruding from his back. Parts of his body appears to be made of greyscales with accents of red and purple. He also has gold veins on his hands and arms, chest, shoulders and back, a red diamond eye shapes gem in the center of his forehead, and skull-shape gold knees and elbow guards with small horns.
"That voice… You're also the one who spoke to me back then too!" Touta realized who this guy is.
"It is an honor to meet you face-to-face. Thanks to our blood in your veins when you were created two years and the magic circle on you, we can now communicate with you like this." Sparda said.
"Hold up, does that make you guys my family like my grandpa Negi?" Touta asked in shock.
"That's right, our blood along with another were added into that little cloning"
"Stop! Do not speak another word about Touta's past!" Yukihime shouted which surprises Touta.
"Yukihime. You know this is the truth that Touta needs to know or else he will never truly know himself and move forward, this is something he needs to know." Sparda stated.
"He is correct, Touta needs to know while I'm still myself for a little while longer." Negi nodded in agreement.
"Touta, this is the truth about yourself. The truth that could change you more than you already are." Negi said before closing his eyes for a second.
"You're not entirely human. You never were to begin with two years ago, you are a clone created from my DNA." Negi revealed the big truth to Touta who is utterly shocked like he became frozen from the truth.
