[1st POV] [Issei]
Being the Red Dragon Empress is...an interesting experience. Being gawked at, looked at like I'm some sort of incredible celebrity every time someone sees me. Being seen as if I am some sort of higher entity, like a God.
When in reality I'm just a pervert who really really really enjoys playing with and sucking on her masters incredible oppai~
Seriously, why did master have to go into that ritual for an entire week! It would have been better if it was only a few days, but noooo, it has to be a week so she can integrate and assimilate all the new power and properly use the ritual objects.
'...We both know it's a lot more complicated than that, partner. The objects have to bind with and assimilate to her own soul' Ddraig spoke in my head, the damned know it all who loves to make me look dumb.
Sure, I love the guy, he's basically my best friend, but damn can he get a little annoying at times.
'I can hear that you damned brat!' Ddraig exclaimed, as I snorted.
"Please, that was on purpose you damn lizard. And yeah, I know it has to assimilate with her soul, I just don't understand why the damn ritual has to take so long" I replied with a grumble, really just not wanting to wait so long for master and her beautiful oppai.
'What, did you expect assimilating that sort of thing to be quick? Kid, she's assimilating four objects of immense power, power that others would quite literally kill for. That people HAVE killed for. The hearts of myself and the white one are not just causally obtained. Those were fought over, a war was fought, and a war was won' Ddraig responded as I rolled my eyes.
"Yeah yeah, but that doesn't explain why it should take a week. Morgan is already super strong, right? So why is it taking so long if she is already that strong?" I asked, as Ddraig snorted in my mind space.
'Kid, she is absorbing hearts of two beings that were once considered in the top three strongest in the entire world. And she is not just absorbing our physical heart, but the power that is tied to them. She is quite literally going to have the blood of myself and Albion running through her veins. And through that, she is likely going to develop traits of both of us when she awakens' Ddraig responded, as I blinked.
Really, this only made me come to one conclusion.
"So does that mean she will sorta be your guy's kid?" I asked, as Ddraig went silent for a few moments, as I realized that what I said was probably true, causing me to laugh out loud.
Because it is funny! The two rivals that hate each other, or at least did, now might have a genuine kid with one another, or at least someone who carries both of their blood.
'...No! She'd be sorta like us sharing a grandchild. Still...not something I like, but it could be a lot worse than that. And it isn't just us that is going to influence her, but also the Phoenix Heart of the First Phoenix, and the Heart of Lucifer. She'll be influenced in similar ways by both of them as well' Ddraig responded.
"In what sort of ways?"
'Better form of immortality, stronger fire, the ability to take an angelic form like Lucifer could, all sorts of things really. She'll likely also be boosted so much in power, that she'll be closer to the top five strongest in the world. Not only that, but she'll have more potential than any other living being on the planet, not that she didn't already have it. That kids growth is truly ridiculous' Ddraig answered, as that was something that I sure as hell can agree on.
"Yeah you're right about that, Morgan is...insanely ridiculous. Seriously, one moment you think you might finally be catching up to her in power, and then, bam! She's a super class being that could beat the shit out of you in a couple of movements" I said, and that was...true.
Neither Valiana or I were her opponent anymore. At one point Valiana could compare to her, we could battle it out with her and make her struggle and sweat, showing off her glistening abs and her oppai tha-never mind.
But now? Now we couldn't even last more than a couple of minutes, and that is without her trying. If she went all out? We'd both be taken out within literally thirty seconds.
But like most of the peerage knows by now, I already know that Morgan doesn't even realize how strong she was. Because otherwise she'd know that she is already a Super Class being, and probably as strong as Sirzechs at this point.
Or at least very very close to that level. Probably making her stronger than that Rizevim douche and Ajuka.
Ajuka ain't really a fighter though, so I guess that that isn't really saying all that much. It's Sirzechs that is truly powerful. That power of destruction is genuinely a terrifying thing to even think of going against.
And Morgan could easily block it, if her fights against Rias are any indicator.
'Have you or any of your peerage mates ever figured out how she is growing so quickly? Surely it's not just natural growth, right?' Ddraig asked, and yeah, we did.
We couldn't find jack shit. And quite frankly, we didn't really want to. As if it was anything truly bad, we'd know by now. Meaning that whatever it is, is probably better off not known.
Just like the many other secrets that master has. Like the fact that she knows about other universes casually, or the fact that she suddenly gets boosts in power or learns new magics that have never been seen before. We never questioned it, because we trust Morgan, and she trusts us.
"Yeah, never goes anywhere. Probably best it doesn't" I responded, as Ddraig inwardly agreed.
Some secrets are better off never being known.
_______________________________________
Seven entire days had passed without Morgan, seven very very long days.
Nothing had really happened during those days, besides some small scuffles that naturally just happened at bars and stuff. But nothing serious.
Morgan should be waking up within an hour, which was a good thing. Because I'm pretty sure Valiana is literally pulling her hair out at all the paperwork she was having to do. And even Grayfia, who had been put in charge of other pieces of paperwork, was going crazy having to do it all.
Whereas I am just walking through the streets of the second largest city in the territory, where the newly made blacksmith factories have been created. These factories have been making some of the best weapons in the Underworld and were making Morgan a shit ton of money.
'So, how much longer do you think it'll take until Morgan is awake? Because this is taking longer than I thought it would' Ddraig asked inwardly.
"Should be within an hour, if Morgan's estimation was correct. She said that it shouldn't be any later than that, so I hope she'll be up soon. Because I don't think Valiana can take much more of this" I responded, as Ddraig let out a laugh inwardly.
'You have to admit that it is amusing seeing her throw a fit over some paper'
"Oh it is, but I also feel bad for her, so..." I trailed off, as Ddraig just continued to laugh inwardly.
I was cut off from continuing my conversation, as a little girl walked up to me. She was a cute little thing, probably 5 years old, and in her hand was a small teddy bear.
"H-Hi, c-could you sign my teddy?" The child asked, as I smiled.
"Of course, who should I sign it to?" I asked, as the child's smile grew, and my heart dropped when I heard the words of Ddraig echo in my head.
'PARTNER LOOK OUT!' As those words echoed in my ears, an earth shattering boom ripped out of the teddy bear, as the last words I heard before everything went dark was....
"Zekram Bael sends his regards"
