20 Timeskip I
"Grayfia nee-san can you tell my mother I wish to talk to her about my peerage" hearing Rias, Grayfia though surprised by her words nodded.
Seeing Grayfia nod, Rias nodded back and left for her usual day. After classes ended Rias assembled all her peerage members as Grayfia teleported them in the Gremory Mansion.
Though Rias' peerage members were confused they followed their King as they entered the meeting room.
Walking in Rias saw both her mother and big brother were already present as they looked at her. Greeting them Rias took her seat as her peerage stood behind her while Grayfia stood behind Venelana.
"So Rias dear, what is it you want to talk about?" Venelana asked looking at her daughter.
Taking a deep breath Rias looked at Venelana and said "I thought about yesterday's match and seeing my own best friend improve so much and yet I am still the same… and add to that his words made me rethink my actions so I decided maybe I should give his advice a try"
Hearing Rias talk about yesterday's match Akeno, Kiba and Koneko felt a bit ashamed as they held their heads down clenching their fists as Rias continued everyone in the room were surprised as they looked at Rias.
Soon Rias' peerage gained a determined look knowing what she was talking about, they had also realised their weaknesses and didn't like the feeling of being weak.
Venelana, Grayfia and Sirzechs all three were silent when they heard Rias, surprised by her mature thoughts instead of her usual tantrum, they looked at each other and nodded as they knew what advice Rias was talking about since Grayfia had already informed them.
"It's good to see you're looking at things in a new light Rias, to be honest with you, all of us were concerned about your future considering your usual behaviour, I guess we were somewhat at fault as well considering we never refuted your actions…*sigh*…Grayfia here has already informed us about Lionel's advice and I support your decision to try it out" Venelana said while Grayfia and Sirzechs nodded.
"Thank you okaa-san"
"No need dear, so I'll help you out in training you in your use of Power of Destruction and responsibilities of a King…I'll show you why your mother is considered the strongest woman from the house of Bael of all time" saying Venelana looked at Grayfia who nodded and said "I'll train Akeno in roles of a Queen and magic abilities"
"I'll let Souji train Kiba and as for Koneko I'll hire a youjutsu expert" Sirzechs said.
Nodding Rias and her peerage left along with Sirzechs leaving behind Grayfia and Venelana.
Venelana looked at the door as she smiled and said "I am really looking forward to meeting him" hearing her, Grayfia looked at her and nodded.
And so just like that Rias and her peerage began their training, while Sona and her peerage continued training under Altria.
When Sona found out about Leo's advice for Rias and how she has started acting on it, her being surprised would be an understatement but she was happy for her friend nonetheless.
As such two months passed by, during this time…
Sona and her peerage kept training under Altria who seemed to enjoy tor*ahem* training them. Though the girls suffered because of her hellish training they became much stronger then they were in the canon. But it wasn't just them who got stronger, Rias and her peerage also started training.
Rias was being trained by her mother as she was made to learn how to control her power of destruction, Venelana was training Rias in the same way she herself trained when she was young. Aside from that Venelana also thought Rias about political matters related to various races and factions while training her to become capable enough to handle The Gremory Clan's business.
Akeno was being trained by Grayfia who taught her various skills necessary for a Queen. So she can handle various tasks and even negotiations to a certain extent on Rias' behalf. Aside from that Grayfia taught Akeno, Ice magic while also helping her in learning to control her demonic power, she made Akeno use magic till her demonic power was completely depleted over and over again helping Akeno to expand her reserves. Though Grayfia realised that Akeno was holding back at using her lightning to its full potential, knowing it was her past trauma something she couldn't help her with though she had thought if Leo could help Akeno overcome her past.
Kiba was back training under Souji Okita – Sirzechs Lucifer's Knight. Souji trained Kiba from scratch in swordmenship technique. Kiba also started to use his Sword Birth in more creative ways ever since he saw Tomoe using her spirit sword in the mock battle. Souji trained Kiba to improve his speed and endurance aside from teaching Sandanzuki to Kiba.
Koneko was being trained in the use of youjutsu by a yokai hired by Sirzechs while he called Surtr Second his rook to train Koneko in her Rook abilities.
Overall, Rias and her peerage had gotten a whole lot stronger to the point they could win against Riser's peerage easily. Though there was someone who wasn't happy with it, it was none other than Zeotifucks…no…Zeoticucks…ugh…whatever.
He was quite surprised by Rias' sudden change in attitude but got upset when he found out about Leo, snapping at Venelana on why he wasn't made aware of Leo earlier. While Venelana retorted at him saying she had informed him but he didn't pay attention to it. He had thoughts of pushing the engagement even further but was held back by Venelana and Sirzechs.
But it wasn't just that, Leo and Altria were also training in Asora. While Altria was finally able to create constructs made up of Nether Force, Leo had reached a whole new level of existence.
Leo had isolated himself in Asora for a few days which made Altria anxious as to what he was up to. During that time Leo had decided to face the wall he had faced before.
It all happened when Leo had created his clones to train in various Laws while he himself wasn't idle either he had started training in the Law of Nothingness.
There was a reason why he started doing that, since his time in Void where he got his wishes from the old man(ROB) he had felt a familiar feeling when he was in Void, he wasn't sure what it was but he knew it was connected to the reason why that old man decided to grant him his wishes.
Which led him to comprehending the Laws of Nothingness.
-[Flashback to Leo's first visit in Asora]-
Currently in Asora, Leo sat down cross-legged, eyes closed and started meditating trying to recall the feeling he had when he was in The Void. After some unknown amount of time passed, he felt the familiar warmth again he knew he had succeeded, calming down he focused on the mysterious energy he was feeling, he was having a tough time dealing with it, because at one second the energy was like boundless force powerful enough to reduce everything to nothingness, at other second it was like the energy wasn't even there. Trying to maintain his focus, he did all he could to absorb the energy but he always failed, but he kept trying, this went on for huge amount of time, realizing he was doing something wrong , he tried to understand what that energy was, that's right he tried to work on his understanding of [ The Void ],
he asked himself what was void –
Was it representation of nothingness/destruction? No, Void was beyond that it was a force beyond one's realm of understanding it was a power that exists everywhere yet it does not, a contradictory force which overlooks all of creation and destruction, everything is derived from it and returns to it.
Gaining an epiphany, his understanding of Void improved and he could feel himself absorbing the mysterious energy, as he kept absorbing the energy till he felt he has reached a bottleneck which he couldn't breakthrough so he stopped.
Releasing a sigh, he opened his eyes which looked like cosmos itself, a mere look could wipe out the very reality, blinking his eyes turned back to normal, he looked around and stood up.
-[Flashback ends]-
Ever since then he would take some time and meditate trying to deepen in understanding of Void and in the use of Void energy.
-[Flashback to Leo training in Nothingness Manipulation]-
He decided to train in nothingness manipulation, closing his eyes he channelled the void magic in his body a slowly tried to create a ball off it. After some time, he managed to create a ball roughly the size of a basketball stopping he started to compress the ball as much as he can, as time passed with sweat dripping from his head at the intense struggle it took to get the ball compressed to a size of a baseball, he found he couldn't compress it any further so stopping there he tried to rotate the ball like Rasengan and soon he had a blackish-purple orb rotating in his palm releasing an aura capable of scaring even Tier 12 beings.
Playing with it for a while, he cancelled the orb and sat down in meditation channelling the power of Void, soon he entered a meditative state completely cut-off from everything, soon his body was giving off a thin black aura.
As time went on, he finally came out of the meditative state, with a sigh he got up, held out his hand in one sign and soon a tiny black orb was floating above his index finger, looking at it, he couldn't help but mutter, "Absolute Nothing". That's right the tiny orb round the size of a marble had the power to wipe away everything/anything on all levels.
-[Flashback ends]-
As such Leo kept training the Laws of Nothingness till he reached a point where he faced a wall obstructing his growth.
-[Flashback to when Leo isolated himself in Asora]-
Leo looked at the mirror like wall in front of him as he saw his reflection in the mirror. He had faced this wall a while back. He knew if he broke through it there was no going back he would become a being beyond people's understanding.
Stretching his hand he saw his reflection do the same as his finger touched his reflection's finger. As the mirror glowed…
Leo looked at his lookalike with a stoic face as he saw his lookalike grin. After some silence both of them clashed as an epic battle took place in the void.
(Some unknown location in the multiverse)
An old man sat on his throne as he said "Don't loose yourself, kid" as he closed his eyes.
(Back with Leo)
Leo continued fighting his lookalike as both had same skills and same power level. Gradually Leo saw his lookalike fading slowly as he fought him.
Leo realised his lookalike was actually helping him in refining his skills.
After unknown amount of time Leo managed to successfully defeat his lookalike. With that Leo looked at the mirror as it shattered and an endless stream of energy invaded his body.
Leo screamed as he felt his very being change as the energy kept surging in his body. After an eternity the energy surge stopped as Leo stood in the boundless void, his existence as if he had merged with the void itself or more like he had become the void itself. He had become a singular existence in multiverse. No matter how much one went in past or in future it would be impossible for them to find his beginning or end, for he had no beginning and end.
After that Leo got back to Asora as he spent the rest of the time there trying to get used to his newfound strength.
After he left Asora, this was what Leo's status looked like…
