Chapter 431: Enters Khaos Brigade

—

Only two factions remained in the sky, the Angels, and the Devils. The Angels still had a skeptical look on their faces, so Neji didn't bother talking to them. He looked at the gathering of Devils, instead.

Neji took a full look at the leading devils. Naturally, the three Satans stood at the front, with a bunch of Ultimate Class Satans around them. All their expressions were cold and worried.

"Fine," Sirzechs suddenly said, looking at Ajuka. Neji could hear everything despite the distance. "Summon them."

As if to not let Neji interrupt him, Ajuka did as asked as soon as possible. He held an artifact in his hand and activated it in an instant. Wheels of magic circles rolled in the sky, and super-strong presences began to appear beside them.

When the light show ended, dozens of people were in the area. There was the Old Satan Faction, led by Rizevim, Shalba, Katerea, and Creuserey. Then there was the Fallen Angel faction, led by Azazel and even the Vali Team. Lastly, there was the Hero Faction. Together, the entirety of the Khaos Brigade was here.

"Mhm, I thought you guys wanted to talk." Neji looked at the situation with a helpless smile. "How troublesome."

[Vali Lucifer – Half Devil – Peak Tier 41]

[Azazel – Fallen Angel – High Tier 50]

[Cao Cao – Human – Peak Tier 51]

[Rizevim – Devil – Peak Tier 51]

These three were the most annoying of the bunch; especially Vali, even if his normal Tier was pretty low.

None of them were that big of a deal, of course. Not when Neji just blasted a Tier 51 out of existence just earlier. The single most problematic person there was the leader of the Khaos Brigade. The Dragon God Infinity.

[Ophis – Dragon – Peak Tier 65]

"That girl's is problematic," Quetzalcoatl said from beside Neji.

"I don't think that's a girl at all," Rumi said, with her Byakugan activated. "It is genderless."

"Yeah, let me handle it," Neji said, giving the girls a look and then looking at the gathering of the Khaos Brigade. He would rather not fight, there was a chance he would lose. "I didn't think you guys would team up."

"Common enemy, I guess," Azazel replied. "I am just here to make sure if you really are an 'enemy' though. Would be crazy if I had to fight my real Big G over this. So yeah, who are you really?"

"You already know, son," Neji smiled. "Oh wait, can angels be considered my children? Or is it just limited to humans?"

Rizevim Lucifer clenched his jaws. "Is this a situation where you can make jokes?"

"Is this a situation where you can question me?" Neji looked at the devil, a spark of his aura booming out of him. "Don't get on my nerves, or I might take out my anger that I have on your father on you."

Neji had all the memories of God, but he didn't have any of God's emotions. He was his own person, so really, what the Original Lucifer did wasn't his problem. Still, the act worked and his tone caused Lucifer's son to shut up and glare.

"I am curious about the Dragon, though," Neji looked at Ophis. "Why is a being of your stature helping these nobodies?"

Ophis, with her eyes bored as never, stared at Neji in silence. A minute later, she broke the silence, her lips moved. "They said you are from another world, that you traveled the Dimensional Gap. You have a way of driving Great Red away, and if I kill you, I'll learn how to do that too. Is that true?"

"Entirely untrue," Neji teleported from his spot and appeared right in front of Ophis. "I do have something that will benefit you, though. You need a place of silence to rest, right? I can give that to you. Later, I can even return the Dimensional Gap to you. It's true, I can show you a representation right now."

"Don't trust him," said Rizevim. "That man is a trickster, it's a trap."

"..."

Ophis stayed silent, and Neji took that as an affirmation for demonstration. He took a moment to discuss something with Sisty in his head, and then with a snap of his finger, he opened a golden portal. Unlike his usual Gates, where the inside wasn't visible from the outside, this time the veil was translucent so it showed what was inside. There was an endless sky, with layers of gold on the floor, and in the middle, there was a bed.

It was a separate space entirely from where his main inventory was located, and it was edited a little to not pause the time inside. So Ophis could go there and sleep.

Ophis stared at the portal with wide eyes. "That's…"

"I am sure your eyes can see how complex and separate that pocket dimension is," he said. "And if you notice… it's bigger than the Dimensional Gap. Much bigger. I'll rent the place to you, with the price being you'll leave the Khaos Brigade and join me. I will not ask to fight you unless a world-ending problem arises, unlike these fools who will disturb you for every little thing. Okay?"

"..." Ophis stared at the Gate still.

It was not that she had never considered staying in a pocket dimension before, but it just wasn't the same. Being so strong, no pocket dimension could contain her senses, and she didn't receive the "silence" she so hoped for. Also, it hurt her pride to stay in a small pocket dimension when her true home was so large.

But this one…

Her subordinates got worried seeing that. "H-hey, this is clearly a trick, how can a pocket dimension be bigger than the-"

"And on top of that," Neji continued. "If you miss your home that much even after spending time there, we can always team up and take our Great Red together. Whatever the case, I am sure you realize I am much stronger than anyone else beside you at this moment. We aren't some sworn enemies, so why should we fight meaninglessly?"

"I…" Ophis turned to him. She frowned. "This seems too good to be true. Humans are tricksters, and as their creators, who knows what kind of trick you would pull off? What if I'm unable to leave that portal after you close it? I doubt anything can contain me, but then again, didn't you seal Trihexa? So it's plausible that you might be able to do the same to me. Do you have any testimony that will allow me to trust you?"

Neji went silent. Her words made sense, and he could even see himself taking advantage of her by killing her or something. But if it was about testimony, maybe he could convince her.

"Will you trust Tiamat's words, then?" Neji said as he snapped his finger. "I know you two have a good relationship, right? What if she vouches for me?"

Ophis narrowed her eyes. It's not as if she and Tiamat were friends; the latter was just the strongest Dragon after Great Red and Ophis, excluding the many Gods who also happen to be a Dragon like Quetzalcoatl. As the strongest of the Five Dragon Kings, Tiamat had interacted with Ophis quite a few times before. To say Ophis should trust the words of someone like that…

Then again, it was much better than using a human as testimony. Given the fact that Ophis didn't have any friends at all, Tiamat was the closest to that. So her words should hold some value.

Ophis nodded. "Alright."

"Great," Neji snapped his finger just as a half-naked Tiamat appeared beside him. She held a towel to cover her privates, and her expression was red and lost as she looked around in a hurry.

Her large, curly horns moved with her head, as did her blue hair that swayed in the air. Despite the situation, a few of the devils looked at her barely covered body, while the angels looked away.

"Damn, what's up with her?" Rumi said as she looked at the naked girl.

"Isn't that… the Tiamat from my world?" Merlin wondered out loud, the only one amongst the girls here who knew the appearance of the real Tiamat back in Gate.

"No, they just look the same," Neji replied to Merlin.

"So you were taking your anger that you have on that red-haired woman out on this Tiamat? Because they look pretty similar, except for the horns and hair." Quetzalcoatl asked.

"What? No." Neji denied it. "I was just… recruiting her. She was in my room, with my Copy, until now."

"Right," Rumi looked at him suspiciously.

"Hnn," Kurai purred suspiciously from his shoulders, then she looked away and just listened to her music.

"Anyways," Neji looked at Tiamat. "Tell Ophis that I indeed hold enough power to clear the Dimensional Gap off Great Red. And that she can trust my words when I say I am not sealing her."

"Huh? O-Ophis?" Tiamat grumbled at him and then looked around to lock her eyes with Ophis. "Yeah, you can trust him. He is a douche, but I don't think he'll kill any strong dragon if he doesn't have to. He is recruiting strong people to fight the threat outside this world, and dragons just happen to be his… uh, favorite."

Neji had the Divinity "Dragon Icon" which was one of his very first divinities. Just a while ago, while fucking Tiamat's brains out, he learned that it grew stronger if he had dragon followers worshiping him. It said, he could "Manifest" the Icon, whatever that meant, if he reached a certain synergy with it. So he was trying it out.

"Otherworldly enemies?" Ophis asked, and many others also paid attention to it.

"Not the one you guys are familiar with, it's much worse," Neji told her. "Anyways, if you accept it, you can enter the space and take a nap. You can call for me anytime from inside."

"Mhm," Ophis looked at Tiamat one last time and then nodded. "Alright. See you later." She said and then dipped inside the portal.

Neji closed it with a snap of his finger, just as Tiamat vanished from beside him too. In an instant, the only problem in the field had been taken care of.

Neji then looked at the Khaos Brigade as a whole, most of whom looked pale. "So. Do we talk? Or do you want to try your luck? Vali, how about you? I am sure your Albion wants to have a shot, wanna have a go?"

"No, he won't," Vali was about to reply, but Azazel replied in his stead. He was wearing a smile. "Instead, let's talk. It seems Ophis identified you as God indeed since she said you were the one who sealed Trihexa. So I personally don't want to fight anymore. As for the others…

"We don't want to fight either, if possible," replied Serafall, looking at Neji with an odd expression. "Rather, we… are here to do an exchange. We have something you like. It's related to one of the girls whose pictures you showed me."

Was it Momo? Did they finally locate her in the Phoenix Household? Neji was all for a talk. "Alright, come down here. Only one from each faction."

After sitting down at a table, Neji realized the information wasn't related to Momo. No, more accurately, it wasn't just Momo, but another girl, who Serafall learned about.
