Chapter #43

Zeno was having fun with his girls, he even had the time to speak about his departure.

Girls were sad about it but they understood him. The fact that there was a senior waiting for Zeno to come back made them emotional, they were really sympathetic when it came to their newly formed sisterhood.

Unfortunately Zeno's fun was soon ruined by the System and Ouryuu's arrival.

Looking at their faces, Zeno knew that they're not here to goof around. So he kissed his girls before getting up.

"There are three of nii-san..." Saya was drooling while Saeko looked at her with concern.

"I am assuming it's the worst case scenario." Zeno said judging by their expressions.

The two nodded before they reverted back to biomass and got absorbed into Zeno.

Immediately after, Zeno got updated on the arrival of the MC of another world. He was a bit anxious seeing that the guy was totally loaded with treasures of unknown effects.

'Fucking magic!' Zeno cursed in his mind.

[Don't hate it just because you don't have it. You know I am from Nasuverse.] System tried to calm him down.

'Yeah, and you didn't grant me shit when it came to magic.' Zeno grumbled.

{Maa, let's not fight when we have something more important to do.} Ouryuu immediately mediated the situation.

"Girls, something came up. I am going up." Zeno said.

The girls could sense something was wrong but they listened to him nonetheless. They could always watch him through the satellite or give him support through Sephiroth.

Zeno completely forgot he had a planet buster super weapon waiting his orders.

He just didn't think it kill the guy, he was at least immortal and could only grow stronger as he got tashed around.

Zeno exited the bunker through Takagi Estate, there he found his enemy appreciating Souichirou's frozen statue.

"Hmm, to think it was cold enough to create black ice. You Japanese are really something else." Youth nodded in approval before storing the statue in his storage artifact.

'Of course he has a storage artifact!' Zeno was getting pissed and jealous.

He had to suffer until he got properly reincarnated and even then his luck with the world was not the best.

Seeing someone doing much better than him pissed him off.

"Oh, where are my manners? My name is Damon Salvatore Ferragamo XVIII. I am the heir of the Ferragamo family." Youth said politely.

"Name's Ouryuu, ruler of this country." Zeno introduced himself. He didn't know why he didn't use his name but it felt right when he called himself Ouryuu.

Damon blinked in surprise hearing the name, but he shook his head afterwards. 'To think the name of the great yellow scourge would be here as well. It doesn't matter.'

"Well, my friend Ouryuu. I am here to save your people from this undead problem, if you would like..." Damon started to advertise himself.

"We don't need it, also we don't like foreigners. Leave!" Zeno shut him up.

"Well, I tried diplomacy." Damon sighed while rubbing the ring on his finger. "Don't blame me for what's going to happen next."

Damon lunged towards Zeno with inhuman speed, he was now wielding a black sword with blood red sheen on it. It was a magical sword no doubt about it.

Zeno parried the attack without difficulty, yet the sword he made from biomass crumbled right after he parried the attack.

"Hoho! To think you'd parry it, my sword The Wilting Rose can decompose anything it touches. You should be careful." Damon chuckled before attacking again.

Zeno was making another sword with his biomass while his enemy was speaking. This time he manipulated his accumulated Karmic Virtue to cover the sword.

After Souichirou's death Zeno finally reached a point where Karmic Virtue was actively protecting and strengthening his body, since the sword was made from his still living body and still a part of him he could cover it with Karmic Virtue.

Swords clashed once again, this time Zeno's sword didn't break but they seemed to be equally strong, yet Zeno knew the man in front of him was stronger than him.

Zeno's accumulated Karmic Virtue was truly pitiful since this world was all the way down in the power levels he couldn't gather enough, if he had more he could have just brute force his way to win.

This surprised Damon, just from the memories of the dead he could tell the people of this world were not strong but this guy already took two of his hits.

"What are you!? Speak!" Damon demanded.

"Like I said. Name's Ouryuu." Zeno replied while golden scales covered his body and face.

[*Playing Enemy from Tommee Profitt*]

"You!!! The accursed golden dragon! To think your kind still lives." Damon exclaimed in fury before he attacked again.

This time he was using all of his power, forcing Zeno in defense. The previous exchange was just for measuring Zeno's power.

Sparks flew as the swords crossed, Zeno's years of efforts paid off as he was able to hold himself against a superior opponent.

Meanwhile Damon was getting angrier by the second until he pulled out a treasure from his space artifact.

"To think I would be forced to use the precious poison artifact of my ancestors. Die golden dragon, I shall honor you by turning you into my undead." Damon threw the artifact on the ground.

This was a bloodline treasure, naturally it wouldn't harm him. Poison smog covered the estate, blinding Zeno.

The poison melted his scales off and tried to seep into his body, but it was unable to do so, because Zeno isn't just a dragon.

He had the Goldlight, the nanosuit, two wonders of science with supreme ability to adapt to nearly anything and Zeno adapted to the poison nearly instantly.

On top of that Zeno is not just a regular dragon, even if his immortality is restricted by magical powers of his opponent, it can't completely suppress it due to Karmic Virtue resonating with his bloodline.

There is also a feeling of support coming from the world around him, to Zeno it felt like the whole world was cheering him on, giving him strength.

Soon the smog dispersed, revealing Zeno in all his humanoid dragon glory. He seemed stronger than before instead of being hurt.

Damon frowned seeing this, that poison was specially made to kill draconic creatures, its effectiveness couldn't be questioned.

'He must be a rare mixed blood with natural poison resistance.' Damon concluded before he took another artifact.

He could no longer hold back, the enemy before him proved to be a true challenge.

'Hmph it would be boring if there were no challenges on my way to the apex!' Damon thought as he threw the treasure.

Zeno was ready to tackle what appeared to be a bead of unknown power but he suddenly felt the danger around him disperse.

Indeed, moments later the bead was shot down and destroyed by a laser strike from Sephiroth.

'Those girls deserved a reward when I go back.' Zeno chuckled to himself.

Damon was hysteric after feeling the power of the laser. It reminded him of the god class magicians of his enemies.

These God class beings were capable of destroying continents and dry oceans. He even witnessed one of them destroying his hometown back when he was running away.

It left a deep impression on him, he knew he couldn't take on that laser. He was just one breakthrough away from being able to survive against such enemies with his special cultivation method.

So he decided to run away while attempting a breakthrough on the spot by using the accumulated undead energy in this world.

"Why are you running!? Why are you running!?" Zeno transformed into his dragon form and chased after Damon.

The Sephiroth couldn't hit Damon with his current speed, so Zeno had to kill him himself.

While flying Damon started to absorb the undead energy in the air, clearing the world from its contamination.

This allowed the world to boost Zeno even further, after all while Zeno was an anomaly he entered this world through legal channels. Meanwhile Damon was a foreigner.

"Why!? Why are you getting stronger!?" Damon yelled but he didn't stop.

Zeno didn't answer him and used the boost he got from the world to further boost and manipulate his Karmic Virtue into a beam attack.

The beam shot through Damon's chest causing him to crash into Tokyo Tower and fall to the ground.

"How!? How can I lose even with a planet full of power boost?" Damon yelled, he was trying to heal his injuries.

"My pain... I mean my plot armor is bigger than yours!" Zeno answered him before he cut Damon's head off and burned him to ashes with Karmic Virtue.

He didn't forget to use the Soul Ferrying Technique to make sure he would pass on instead of turning into a ghost or some shit.

Zeno sighed as he felt the world's support leaving him making him feel powerless, the threat was gone. So the world returned to being impartial.

[Too bad his artifacts were all soul bound.] System sighed.

{Yeah, Souichirou's Statue is gone as well…} Ouryuu was hoping to give the man a proper burial.

After all these years he was excited to get it's non-existent hands on some real magic but it wasn't meant to be.

{May he rest in peace and his world may prosper despite the loss of their Child of Destiny.} Ouryuu paid his respects.

[Oh, yeah his world just got terminated by Merlin due to no longer having a valid main character.] System suddenly said.

{Zeno let me out, I want to get wasted...} Ouryuu muttered.

'Let us go back. It was his fault to resort to violence immediately.' Zeno brushed it aside.

His divine backer was Merlin. He didn't give a shit about the bigger picture.
