Chronicle Of A Gamer

"It's been a long time, how are you, big sister Yukari?

"As you can see, I'm fine, but you've changed a lot since the last time I saw you and you've become stronger."

"Can you tell me how you got here?"

I ask to the Yokai who drinking her tea

" What do you mean by that? "

She responds to me with a smile like she doesn't understand my question

"I mean it's my mindscape, my mental world, how did you come here ?"

"Oh, I'm the one who allowed her to enter your mindscape, you don't mind, do you? "

" She right you don't mind? "

Yukari asks me while she opening her fan and hide her mouth behind the fan, knowing her for so long even if I'm against her coming in my mindscape she'll come anyway because she's a curious woman.

"No, no, no, not at all."

'I don't want to attract Yukari's fury, I already forgot to visit Gensokyo these last year and to send news to some persons that I've promised to contact '

I sit at the table and one of the maids serves me a cup of tea, which allows me to relax.

"Hey Bahamut, I wanted to ask you something? "

"Sure, but when I'm in this form, call me Forte, young master"

"I didn't know you were a female? "

"Oh for that, as you must know, some dragons are as.e.x.u.a.l, it must be said that throughout my life I've had a lot of forms but most of them is that of a woman or a young girl, this form is my favorite"

"I see, when we first met, I thought you were an old man by your voice, but this shape suits you very well."

"Thank you very much, young master, for these words, this Forte is very honored"

"Returning to my question, I wanted to ask you during my trip in the virtual world I released the seals of Yamato that I could but my power was abnormally wilder than usual do you know what happened? "

"Oh, you didn't have enough control over your new demon power. Certainly, you have managed to manifest your power but you have not been able to channel it enough since your body has not become a container adapted to use it properly. It is as if a high pressure arrives in a valve if the pressure is not regulated from the source to the outlet point either the container explodes because it cannot withstand the pressure or the second possibility which is your case you must suddenly release and without control".

" I see, I think I need to practice using my demonic power better to avoid this kind of accident. "

"I also watched the fight earlier and everything that happened with that man in black you could have done better than that, what's to stop you from fighting without restraint"

Yukari asks me

" ... "

I remain silent

"Well, I'm waiting for your answer? "

"I wanted to play the card of prudence because the person in black didn't tell me anything good, he seems to have more experience in combat than I do and he's holding back against me, certainly I could have fought against him as I usually fight, but I'm not in the world I know, the world where I lived was dangerous but I could manage with my inheritance and my training, but when I arrived in this world where the age of gods is still present, something bothered me and didn't want too much attention drawn to us, that's all"

I answer her with a satisfactory answer, but it doesn't seem convincing enough, even for me.

"You're lying"

"What? I'm not lying at all"

I try to remain credible for as long as possible

"Then why are your hands shaking?"

" ... " I look at my hands to notice that they are indeed shaking

'Why?' I ask myself, tightening my fist and then flashbacks come back to me.

Memories that should have been buried years ago are resurfacing and haunting me

'Yukari is right it's not that I'm afraid of other factions or to show my abilities, I'm afraid that the past will repeat itself.'

After refecting for some minute

"You're right I lied, I'm actually scared"

"Scare ?"

"Scare of losing loved ones again, there were two dramatic moments in my life that marked me, the first was my mother's death to protect me during the Fuyuki accident, before Gramps adopted me I always wondered after that if I should have survived or not, the second was when I lost friends and playmates during an attack, a member of the hero village lost his mind by touching a cursed sword and starting to attack everyone, when he came to the place were we where playing with the other kids, I tried to protect them but some of them died, when he tried to attack Yuki I don't know what happen but it seems I succ.u.mbed to my rage and I got berserk"

The three women listen carefully to the story of the young man

"After these events, I closed my heart to forging a new bond and it took me years to open up to others again and make friends"

I took a breath then continue.

"When I learned that Tohka and the others were being attacked by the fallen angels I was already on edge, but when this man in black appeared and I sense how his darkness was powerful, my body unconsciously activated some kind of defense mechanisms"

"A defense mechanism? "

"I think the trauma of my childhood cause so kind of auto preservation mechanism when a person very close to me is in danger, I have to protect them or I could not fight at full power, by fear of reproducing what happened before"

"Poor Zerono, you have such burden on you"

Then Yukari gets up from her chair and approaches Zerono

*Bam*

To hit him on the head with her fan

"Ouch" I cover my head where a big bump starts to appear

"Pathetic"

"What?"

"Where is the kid who played tricks on Gensokyo's Yokai and managed to get away with it every time, where is your recklessness of facing enemies stronger than you, I don't remember that you have become a weak and fearful man"

I listen to Yukari describe the previous me but the last part on the other hand to touch a s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e nerve.

"Who do you call weak? "

Then we get into a battle of arguments that I lose of course because Yukari points out my bad points every time

"How do you feel, now? "Yukari asks me

"I feel better, thank you to all three of you for listening to my complaints and for putting up with my bad temper."

"When I heard your story from Reimu that when you're under pressure it happens that you have this kind of reaction I didn't believe it at all but now that I've seen it with my own eyes"

"I told her not to tell anyone, but it's Raimu we're talking about, so if you got her to talk, I guess the information's leaking all over Gensokyo."

"You've never tried to fix this problem? "Asked me Lailah

"I talked about it with Chisato and the only way for me to get rid of it is to face my past, but I've always postponed this moment and with what's happening right now I won't have time to deal with it but maybe in the future"

// Timeskip //

After all these events, these few weeks allowed me to put my thoughts in order, I was able to finish my quest to exterminate demons in the Kuoh shopping district, by eliminating them using my mystic eyes and my new skills.

I gained experience with my new powers, at the end of the dungeon I found a Sephira crystal which is a crystal that transforms a human into a spirit, it really weird to find this kind of artifact in this kind of dungeon, so I decided to keep in my inventory and give it to Shiori or Mana.

I took the opportunity to get to know the spirits girl better, each of them with their own personality and I had a hard time adapting to their presence, with Tohka being a bottomless well with food, Miku being too emotional towards me, which gets on Mio's and Yuki's nerves, Mayuri, Natsuki and Mukuro always asking for my attention and presence or the twin Kaguya and Yuzuru constantly fighting to determine who is better than the other.

But the most dangerous of them is Tokisaki Kurumi, she and I have a bad chemistry but not in the wrong way, we get along very well but we are both S. At every opportunity she tries to tease me by approaching me and trying to take advantage of me but to counter her I retaliate by trying to get the upper hand and it can last for hours.

Kurumi sends clones all over the world to collect information knowing the power of her angel, I don't worry about her.

I'm lucky Rinne and Shiori are helping me manage the girls or I wouldn't make it.

We were able to enroll everyone in the Kuoh Academy thanks to Sona, the High School group was placed in a new class so I could act if a problem arises with one of them since some girls can lose control of their power at the slightest sign of stress, I, Takumi, Mio, Yuki, Himari were transferring into this class so that the number to do a class is reached and Reine who is now enrolled as a teacher in Kuoh and Chisato are now our homeroom teacher.

The group of Middle school is in the same class as Kurumi-chan there too for ease of use.

Yoshino, Rio, and Natsumi are homeschool by Merlin, and Tsukihime, Zest, Maria, Sakuya, and Mama Raiko to keep them company when we are at school.

Kotori and I also discussed the fact that I must seal their power to avoid being detected by potential enemies. Of course, I'll let them have access to their limited form to be able to defend themselves in case of an emergency.

I took each of them to a date, or spend a day together and each of them was satisfied with their moments with me.

For example, with Kotori, we spent a brother and sister day going to the zoo, the amus.e.m.e.nt park, shopping. Sometimes some dates were extreme like when Kurumi took me to a women's lingerie store to help her choose u.n.d.e.r.w.e.a.rs, but no luck I'm not a person so easily embarrassed in front of a pair of p.a.n.t.i.e.s and I even helped her by giving her advice on what to choose which surprised and embarrassed her.

Then at the end of each day, I was able to seal the power of each girl with a kiss.

After that, I, Chisato, Reine, and Kotori decide to recreate Ratatoskr in this world to be able to develop our activities around the world with our access to the technology of Ratatoskr and DEM register in Fraxinus we can create countermeasures against the Kahos Brigade and the supernatural.

On the side of the devils there were also many movements, it seems that Takumi, met Grayfia and Sirzechs who confirmed that he is their son, and he learns how to control his Lucifurge ice power thanks to his mother with this done we avoided the worst for him.

He and Himari come to train at my home every day after school, it seems Takumi has experience in combat and has already beaten stray devil before.

We were also able to manifest his Sacred Gear which is called "Breaker Gear" in the form of two bracelets at his wrists which is inhabited by a dragon who masters the divine flame called "Artus" which seems to be Ddraig's brother, with the help of Caster we were able to concoct an elixir allowing him to recover his health more quickly.

On Rias' side, it seems that her two pawns met Asia Argento became friends with her and added her to her peerage and now she a student of Kuoh Academy. I met and talked a little bit with the young nun when she was lost looking for a classroom and we became friends.

In recent days I have noticed that Rias was no longer so active in her role as Kuoh's governor, as the number of stray devils has been greatly increasing in recent days, that Sona asked me to take care of that. When I hunt the Strays the people who usually accompany me are Mana and Kurumi.

Kurumi uses her angel and Mana uses one of Ratatoskr's CR-unit that are in the Fraxinus. And to tell you, our teamwork is deadly. Kurumi uses her angel to stop the time of the enemies Mana cuts off one or two limbs to weaken them and I end them with arrows soaked with mana and demonic energy in their hearts. We are not leaving any survivors.

// One afternoon during lunch //

As I head to my favorite spot to relax at school I notice a strange bird perching on a branch near the old school, normally it shouldn't bother me but the problem is that I've already seen this bird at the entrance of the school watching everyone come and go, the girls also told me they also saw a bird, like that, watched them, so seeing it here confirms my suspicion of who owns this bird when I look at this bird with [Observe] I see this.

[

Name:????

Status: Familiar of Raiser Phenex

Breed: False Phoenix

Description: Familiar of one of the biggest scrumbag of all the multiverse, Riser Phenex who has an oversized ego and who thinks he is the strongest and most powerful devil because he has the regenerative power of the phoenix. But the truth is, he's trying to compose the fact that he has a micro-p.e.n.i.s.]

When I look at the description the system gives him, I try to hold back my laughter so that he doesn't spot me.

"Sh*t, even Gaia hates this guy to the core."

Now I remember Takumi telling me that Rias and Sona had a Dodgeball match last night and that Rias to win, so that means Riser will soon arrive, but this bastard dares to spy on my family I wonder what he is up to.

"The choice is difficult, either I let Raiser be and see what happens or I take care of him, it's better to be considerate than not to be."

I say to myself, when I saw Raiser the first time, reading the manga Grandpa gave me, I wanted to slaughter him, the way he acts towards Rias, and dares to kiss another woman in front of his fiance without any remorse, he is a disgrace for all men.

And also since Grayfia will be where she should be aware of me as a very dangerous person with the level of a Maou, but also as a brother figure for her son which should work in my favor if he decides to do anything during his little visits although they can do nothing to me, basic.

I turn into my astral form and take pictures of the bird spying on the Gremory's, then before he can go back to his master, I trap him in a Mana cube and decide to go back to class and wait for Mr. KFC to arrive.
