A ways away from the main settlement of Asora was a large meeting hall that had just finished construction recently, designed for important discussions among the most important figures. Currently sitting in it were those same people, there was Rias who brought Akeno and Asia, Sona who brought Tsubaki, Sairaorg and Seekvaira who came by themselves, Vali along with the majority of his team, his retainers Bova and Roygun, and finally Ravel, Barakiel, Gabriel, Yasaka, and Serafall. Filling the rest of the seats at the long table was the rest of the new dxd. Every single one of those seated were watching a large screen with a variety of expressions, some where pale, some had looks of absolute shock, while only a couple others looked as if Christmas came early.
On the screen was the video taken of Alex's battle with the other worlders, showing the truth of what he told them about them and their unique powers. The first person to die was dismissed quickly as a weakling, the other two were held in a higher esteem, even though one was hidden up until Alex killed him. The one they focused on most of all, was unsurprisingly the devil fruit user Nick. None of those gathered had heard of someone having the ability to turn into magma itself, effectively becoming invulnerable to almost any physical attack.
While they were all watching the replay for like the dozenth time in the hour since the fight ended, Alex was sitting at the head of the table with Asia at the side healing the burn on his hand, and Grayfia standing behind him. He was thinking bitterly about this luck at the lottery wheels after the fights. He won two "grand prizes", one was good but wasn't something he wasn't sure he'd use, while the other was something that almost made him cry. His third round got him ten more levels, putting him at level 190, just another ten more until he reached the next milestone.
His "good" pull was the Magu Magu No Mi devil fruit, which Alex was torn about eating. On one hand it was one of the most powerful fruits used in the One Piece series, while on the other it would eliminate his ability to swim, and Alex already felt he had enough weaknesses with light/holy and dragon slayers. Plus if he was a super saiyan that couldn't swim he'd be a laughing stock. He checked with Lauren when he won it, and it seemed that it might be possible to negate the side effects of being weak to water, but it would take time finding something to counter it. One option she said he had was to give the fruit to someone else if he didn't want to use it, which he was somewhat tempted to do instead of leaving it sitting for who knows how long. Though if he did that, then who would he offer it to? He didn't think any of his current peerage members would be a good match with its power, so he could put it off again until he found a good match, or give it to someone not part of his peerage. The one he was thinking of offering it to was Bova, but he didn't make the offer yet since he really wanted to think about it.
His other new ability, the one that nearly made him cry, was Kyle's enslavement Magic. Why, of all the options available, did he get that one?! It especially annoyed him since Alex already had his evil pieces, which to him was the better option since they made his servants stronger and gave them access to his system. Enslavement magic on the other hand didn't, and wouldn't be of use for combat. The only benefit of enslavement magic that he could see, was the absolute obedience of his orders. After thinking for a few moments Alex supposed he could use it on enemies for interrogations and such, though he wished he could have gotten something more useful. He'd have to find someone to test it out on soon though.
The most annoying thing to him about the whole situation, was that he missed a chance to get Haki for free. Alex had been thinking about what his next ability should be, and one of the ones he was considering the most was Haki, so he was hoping to get it after spinning the wheel. But of course reality wasn't kind, so he had to wait until he reached level two hundred to get it.
"Alex!" Someone said suddenly, snapping Alex out of his thoughts. He looked up to find everyone looking right at him, evidently finished with watching the replays. He then stood up and said,
"This is the potential threat I wanted to warn you his about, any questions?" Almost immediately Cao Cao asked,
"Do you know anything about their abilities besides becoming invisible or turning into lava?" Everyone looked alert at his question, and Alex thought for a second before asking in return,
"Before getting into that, tell me, who do you guys think was the biggest threat to everyone out of those three?" Almost everyone agreed that Nick with his Devils fruit was the biggest threat, with only a couple saying that Sean was, no one thought Kyle was any kind of threat. Alex laughed slightly, and pulled up the image of Nick before saying,
"Believe it or not, this guy was the smallest threat to anyone out of the three." No one know how to respond to Alex's words, but then that was to be expected since they didn't know the details of each of their abilities like he did. He then started explaining,
"His power is from something known as the Devils fruit, as you can see it grants near invulnerability, and gave him the ability to attack with lava. This however can easily be countered if one knows how and uses their head, especially if they are near a source of water since devil fruit users can't swim." At his words everyone started thinking, before he pulled up a picture of Sean and continued talking,
"This guy on the other hand had what I won't hesitate to consider deadlier abilities. For instance he didn't turn invisible, it was a void ability that made him completely intangible, once again negating all forms of attacks. Another ability he had allowed him to completely ignore any forms of defense his target had, like a superior form of my penetrate. And finally that sword he used had the power to almost instantly kill any who it cuts through a curse." As Alex finished explaining what Sean's abilities were there was complete silence as they contemplated the implications of someone with those kinds of powers and equipment. But that was nothing compared to what Alex said next, as he pulled up the picture of the first guy he killed, Kyle.
"And this is probably the most dangerous one out of the three of them." When they heard Alex's words everyone looked at him with confusion, but when he continued they all turned deathly pale.
"His abilities were all about manipulation, wether it was his charm that made women fall for him, mind control to turn other's into his puppets, or his enslavement magic to force others to do his bidding against their will. Using these three abilities he managed to turn several countries, and any women he fancied into his playthings." As he repeated some of the things Lauren told him about Kyle, everyone have a variety of different reactions, but the girls had reacted the worst after hearing how he treated women.
For those staying behind, their new task was a little more daunting now that they knew some of these people could kill or control them without even knowing it, but that didn't frighten them. Some of them like Cao Cao and Sun Wukong were actually looking forward to going against people that fought in ways none of them ever conceived. Now that they had an idea of what they were up against, and the powers involved, those staying behind felt a lot better about facing these people.
Seeing the confidence in their eyes, Alex felt a lot better about leaving the world in their hands, at least until he could find a more permanent solution. With this everything was calm until the day Alex decided to leave.
***
Two days after facing the other three otherworlders, Alex was ready to leave the dxd world. He stood outside the dorms with Rias, Kuroka, and Grayfia at his side, all ready to follow him wherever he led them. Everyone accompanying them was already in Asora, ready to leave with him. He turned to the three girls, and asked,
"Are you ready? There's no turning back from here on out." All three girls nodded, and Rias took his hands before saying,
"If I had second thoughts about following you, then I would've left a long time ago, where you go I go." The two smiled at each other, before Kuroka suddenly clung to his back, and declared,
"Don't forget me! Until you give me as many kids as I want you're not getting rid of me either, Nyan!" Rias shot a glare at Kuroka for interrupting, to which the nekomata simply stuck out her tongue. Ignoring both girls, Grayfia then said,
"As both my master and my lover, it would be the greatest disgrace of my life to abandon you now. My life is yours until the end." Alex looked at all three women, touched with how loyal they were to him. He then sent a message to Anne saying he was leaving his current world, and would notify her where to meet up. After that he told Lauren where and when he wanted to go, having spent the last two days thinking about the best world to visit next. A second later a portal of swirling gray opened in front of them, and without hesitation Alex stepped through, followed closely by Rias, Kuroka, and Grayfia.
(A.N. About the powers, remember it's like a lottery system so the mc won't automatically get amazing powers every time. The fact he did get two powers, regardless of what they were, was already stretching it.)
