27 Noble Phantasm Creation III
With the ultimate weapon and ultimate "armor" of the Phantasmal Origin complete, work on was pretty much done for now since there were no more treasures to integrate but Jun's Noble Phantasm creation was not yet done.
In the two years that had passed, he not only trained but also thought deeply about how to best use his resources to increase his power and a very good idea came to him, an independant familiar type Noble Phantasm.
Using DxD Vritra's soul along with his sacred gears and the the remaining shell of the Boosted Gear combined with Nox's Material Alteration and Imaginary Numbers Magecrafts and his Alchemy Skill to create a pseudo spiritual being with the power of a dragon and the ability to shapeshift into various different forms.
Huginn and Muninn would be introduced as well, since their characteristics was something Jun had use for but their weaknesses limited them. This way they would become a part of something much greater. All of this was made possible by the Akashic Converter's assistance.
In the end, the result were two reddish black masses of considerable size and magical energy signatures not that inferior to the current Jun and that was saying something.
The two masses then melded into Jun's shadow, laying in wait for his order, making up in loyalty what they currently lacked in personality but they had the ability to grow their intelligence and were just very smart and obedient newborns for now.
Jun called them Nox & Nyx: The Ever Shifting Loyal Shadows. They could assume many different shapes but with their true name released, the would become two large oriental reddish black dragons with incredible power.
It was a rank A++ Noble Phantasm and the first one Jun had made that he could fully use to its peak from the start, even though it was of a lower grade than the others.
When he was finally done with all of his creation efforts, something changed deep within him. A new power born of his efforts.
Jun's Item Creation (B) evolved into Noble Phantasm Creation (EX).
Noble Phantasm Creation (EX): With the assistance of another power (Akashic Converter), the user is able to convert treasured materials into Noble Phantasms of any kind so long as a definite schematic or plan exists. Items of great power can also be converted into Noble Phantasms.
The rank of all creations depends on the plan and schematic used to make them as well as the used materials. Due to the user's experience, treasures with high magical energy can replace any other material and even improve the final rank of the result.
'Well, that sure was a pleasant surprise.' Jun thought.
'More than you realize.' Ahsaka commented.
'How so?' He asked.
'The fact that one of the Akashic Grimoire's functions is being listed in one of your skills means you are getting closer to mastering that particular power without the need of the Grimoire's assistance. I did not predict you would have reached this step so soon.' She explained.
'Right! You did explain the Grimoire is just allowing me to use abilities I have but are not yet qualified to use on my own by granting assistance. That skill symbolizes a small but very important step forward when it comes to wielding the power myself without the need of assistance!' Jun realized with joy and excitement.
'Precisely. The road is yet long but you have definitely taken the first step and now, so long as you acquire sufficient amounts of treasure and magical energy, you can use them to make any Noble Phantasm by acquiring schematics from the Akashic Records.' Ahsaka pointed.
'Say what would I need to make Gilgamesh's Ea?' Jun immediately enquired.
'Treasure's more valuable than an entire world and enough magical energy to create your own personal God, not a Dive Spirit, but an actual God which is countless times greater in scope and power.' Ahsaka responded.
'In other words, kept those foolish dreams for when you are asleep. Right?' Jun shrugged.
But to his shock, Ahsaka actually responded.
'Indeed.'
'I'm having far too much of a bad influence on her, how do I make this stop? Jun asked himself.
But even as one of his mental partitions was having those useless thoughts, others were hard at work figuring his next actions.
He was already gone for a few days of outside time so he checked to see ig he had any messages and sure enough, Valia had left one. Azazel had an important job and needed Jun's "expertise" for so, or so he said according to Valia.
Jun was planning to leave for the Nasuverse within the next years since there were things he now found himself in need of that could only be found there, not to mention there was a lot of fun to be had.
In DxD Jun needed to be careful who he picked fights with since it would make him enemies and draw unwanted attention to him but in the Nasuverse, he could hop between timelines, mess around in one, make a crap ton of enemies and then leaving to never come back.
If he did that, only peepers like Zelretch or powerful entities like Akasha and Gaya would be aware of his doing in other timelines and thus he wouldn't make to many problems for himself, or at least that was the plan.
First though, there was some business to take care in DxD even though he would return at the exact moment he left, Jun felt he currently had enough power to care of a few matter even without using his trump cards so he decide to take care of them before leaving for the Nasuverse.
Using his new skill and a considerable portion of the magical energy stored in his workshop, Jun converted a few of his favourite test creations from the holy artifacts he got into low ranked nameless Noble Phantasms to use.
His true ones were so powerful but even his damn weapon drained magical energy just to swing it normally, probably because his martial skill was too low to properly wield a weapon of such caliber, no matter the form besides, trump cards are to be saved for the key moments they are needed.
As such, Jun decided to divide his tools into three separate categories based on how serious he needed to be. His true Noble Phantasms would be on the Fully Serious category.
His low ranked nameless noble Phantasms along with Gram would be on the Half Serious category with the latter being reserved for particularly tough situations.
Finally, he had some mystic codes for his Faking Weakness category where he would just pretend to be a regular magus. After all, which protagonist did not decided to hide their powers for one reason or another or even just because.
In the Nasuverse though, this was truly important as there were certain existences whose attention Jun didn't want to grab by exhibiting his overly powerful true Noble Phantasms.
With that done in a relatively short amount of time, Jun exited his workshop and returned to Grigori' facilities only to be called immediately to Azazel's Office.
Entering he saw Azazel and Barakiel inside.
"Hey Azazel. So what's this job you have?" Jun greeted and asked.
"Wait him!? Nononono! I'm against this!" Barakiel exclaimed.
"Nice to see you too Barakiel. What's with all the hostility?" Jun said.
Barakiel stuttered for a bit before Azazel decide to step in and explain.
"Well, you know how you seem to be turning the heads of all of Grigori's ladies right? I mean damn! Even I'm jealous." He started.
It was true, Jun's looks, Dragon Aura and Charisma were a potent mix that charmed women and made lesser men feel inferior. Each time Jun walked the halls of a Grigori facility the women there always followed him with their gaze.
If Valia was there, she would also glare ta these women is passing as if telling them to stay away and know their place but Jun just pretended like nothing was happening and ignored all of it.
"What about it?" Jun asked.
"Well Barakiel will need to excuse himself from his home for a while due to his duties so he came to me discussing security options. Your little place in Kuoh has turned into a veritable fortress even I want to stay away from so I thought of you as the man for the job." Azazel said.
"Sound reasonable." Jun replied and then turned to Barakiel.
"What? Worried I'll charm your wife and daughter?" Jun jokingly asked him only for the big man to freeze.
"Wait are you serious?" Jun asked again.
By now, Barakiel was red with embarrassment while Azazel was struggling to hold his laughter in.
"Hahahahahaha!" Jun broke down in laughter and Azazel soon followed and Barakiel deflated like a punctured beach ball.
Jun patted on the shoulder and said.
"Don't worry! If you don't have marital problem I'm sure your wife won't leave you." He comforted.
The big man realized his wife was not such a weak woman too and thus calmed down and started feeling better but then Jun continued.
"I make no promises in regards to your daughter though." He "innocently" added.
Fire lit up on Barakiel's eyes as he got ready for the warpath while Jun and Azazel broke down he laughter again just making the poort fallen angel want to bury himself in hole again.
