32 Chapter 32 - We Should Tell Okita-sensei

Koneko hid in the bushes alongside the pervert and Kiba as they watched the two stray exorcists complain about being on watch duty as they stood in front of the doors to the church. The past few weeks had been rough on her state of mind, finding out that her sister possibly did not abandon her out of malice was circling through it continiously.

She had gotten to take a look at what the Super-class devil research was really about, if somewhat simplified and if she had been forced to go through the procedure she was sure that she would have gone mad. She had done a bit of research into senjutsu in the past, to make sure that she wouldn't use it and the standard process of learning senjutsu was to first get a feel for it while being in a calm environment with less negative influence.

If hers had awakened amongst devils, beings of sins, without her knowing how to filter out the negatives and it being strengthened on top of that, she wouldn't even stand a chance trying to suppress it.

However, she was still skeptical and was resolved to ask her sister about the truth of what really happened the next time they met.

Shaking her head to get rid of her thoughts, she prepared herself to take the guards out and was just about to jump out when her entire body instantly tensed up, locking her in place as something... something was approaching their location from the forest's direction.

It was so far beyond everything she had ever felt before trumping even Rias' brother who was said to be one of the strongest beings in the world, although he reigned in his power most of the time, her aura sensitive senses still picked up on the carefully contained raging destruction and chaos swirling around inside of him just waiting to be let out.

Rias also had a similar feeling but aside from the nature of the power itself, their quantity and intensity couldn't be compared.

This however, this feeling almost couldn't be described properly. It was like personified Nothingness stretching on into Infinity swirling with Chaos accompanied by an otherworldly suppression from a higher being pressing down onto her from all sides suffocating her as her youkai heritage was practically trying to force her to show submission in order to survive.

She had a hard time breathing as black spots encroached upon her vision, she shakily retreated further into the bush seeking some form of comfort as her body subconsciosly curled into a fetal position.

"Koneko? Hey, are you alright? Koneko!?"

"Koneko-chan!"

She barely heard Kiba and the pervert calling out to her but she felt like she was currently underwater, swimming against monstrous currents as the sense of overwhelming power silently washed over the area before it suddenly completely disappeared.

Koneko's eyes shot wide open with a gasp, panting as she felt like she had just jumped into a pool of water with all the cold-sweat running down her body, she shakily pushed herself up to her knees as her eyes frantically darted around scanning the forest edge.

"Hide." She rasped out while janking Kiba and the pervert back by the necks of their shirts.

A few moments later Koko emerged from the shrubbery while balancing a stick between her nose and lips while humming, two extra arms hanging around her neck.

"Okita-sensei's granddaughter?" Kiba muttered to himself as he raised an eyebrow.

"H-Huge..." Issei's eyes widened as he looked at her when suddenly his sacred gear started flickering on and off eventually manifesting on it's own before it started to change. The previously somewhat docile looking Twice Critical turned sharper, more draconic as sharp scales appeared along it's side and claws ran down his fingers before the green gem embedded in it's top started to shine.

[Do you want to die!?] A deep voice whisper shouted making the three of them jump slightly.

Koneko and Kiba looked in Issei's direction before focusing in on the sacred gear's new appearance as Issei was looking around trying to find who it was that spoke.

"...It changed?" Koneko muttered.

"So it seems." Kiba nodded.

[What the hell are you doing so close to one of the dragon gods weakling host!?]

"Uh..." Issei was... not really following the situation.

Koko looked at the church in front of her curiously although she was a bit curious there really wasn't anything even remotely strong nearby. Scratching her head a bit in thought she eventually got an idea, wasn't this a good opportunity to test her new ability in action?

Nodding to herself she started walking towards the doors as she activated it.

The stray exorcists saw her and started shouting at her to go away which she ignored as two air bullets shot in their direction when she flicked the air in front of her making them harshly impact the church wall before dropping down to the ground unmoving.

"Hmmm~" Koko rubbed her chin a bit before her Punching Rig appeared around her, a tail lazily swaying behind her.

Stepping closer to the doors she used a bit of psychic energy to immobalize them before she gave them a light tap.

A massive sound rang out as the whole front of the church was pushed back into itself, crushing the walls and windows before four more impacts quickly followed the church getting more and more destroyed with each hit sending debris and dust into the air.

As the dust settled the only thing still standing was the back wall of the church the rest having caved in, now mere rubble on the ground.

"Oooh~" Koko looked around happily as she opened the doors and walked inside amongst the groaning of stray exorcists buried beneath tons of church remnants.

Suddenly a loud shout rang out as one of the piles of debris further to the back of the church started moving and with a scream of exertion a pink haired man emerged covered in dust, panting.

"Who was it!? Who was the fuck that tried to bury me, huh!?" The pink haired man grit out as he propped himself up using some of the wreckage around him as he looked around his eyes landing on Koko's figure.

"Was it you, huh!? Answer me fucker!"

"I like your hair." Koko ignored his question.

Freed grinded his teeth as he growled, this fucking bitch was mocking him.

The pink haired man looked just about to blow when he suddenly started laughing shrilly, a warped expression appearing on his face, though his twitching eye was still visible.

"You thin-" He started in a sharp ridiculing voice before he was sent flying by Koko's tail sailing over the forest.

The scene turned silent as Koko tilted her head, why didn't he just follow up his sonic attack laugh? A few moments later Koko reached the conclusion that he was just stupid, talking wasn't a free action.

Looking down at where she could sense the other supernatural beings she felt out their strength and quickly lost interest now that she had tested her new ability.

Turning around she made a cutting motion with her arm opening up a portal, a small forest clearing sitting beneath a red sky appearing as she walked through.

The three devils and one sacred gear looked at the aftermath of Koko's ability testing. Although Koneko and Kiba had seen her fight before and roughly knew her strength, the same could not be said for a certain someone new to the supernatural.

"H-Hey... is that for real?" Issei unsteadily pointed at the remains of the church as his knees were slightly shaking. The one who caused it had barely even touched the building!

[Humph, if you are afraid of this bit of power then you're not surviving for long, though most that strong wouldn't even bother with something like this. Someone 'she' has taken as her own is above my understanding. As expected.] The sacred gear spoke up loudly now that the dragon god had left.

Meanwhile the other two glanced at each other, Koneko had her usual blank face while Kiba looked slightly worried.

"...Was that the underworld?"

"Mn."

...

"...We should tell Okita-sensei."

So far I have:

Aneki

Ane-san

Boss

Boss-lady

I haven't decided yet, feel free to suggest alternatives.
