I skipped PE class today to train at the abandoned warehouse with Shoto and Hurwhiill fighting against each other. Right now Shoto has the advantage due to being faster and smarter. Yet that was all turned upside down when Hurwhiill punched Shoto which sent him flying. The strength and durability difference was just too great between the two of them. In which Shoto was knocked out from a single punch alone.
Darren: Shoto are you ok??
Shoto: Yes, my liege. Hurwhiill really proved that he was a challenge.
Hurwhiill: My lord, I beg of you. Please fight me once more.
Darren: Sure, I guess I will.
Hurwhiill and I was prepared for battle while Shoto stood aside watching the battle.
Shoto: READY!!! START!!!
I rushed in landing a punch onto Hurwhiill's face who just turned around in retaliation and swiped at me with his tail. I quickly dodged it and started punching it, breaking many of its scale in the process. Eventually, Hurwhiill just cannot tank anymore damage and just surrendered.
Hurwhiill: I surrender, my liege. Your power is so great that even I cannot match it.
Darren: Let's go back to school now. Shadow return.
Shoto and Hurwhiill immediately returned into my shadow as I teleported back into school. I heard everyone start to whisper about Shido.
E1: have you heard about Itsuka?? He's suddenly gone so strong and fast.
E2: I think that Gojo is faster and stronger though.
E3: Maybe, but how did he get so strong?
Darren: (Shido must have overloaded his spirit powers. I don't want to keep a close eye on him but I guess I have to now. What a pain)
I watched as Shido was transported back to Fraxinus in which I followed, I saw Shido being placed on a medical bed with sweat beads dripping down his face.
Darren: What a pain.
I placed my hands in my pockets and walked away. Accidentally listening into Reine and Shido's spirit's conversation.
Reine: The analysis has shown that the path between you guys and Shin has drastically narrowed. Which basically means that Shido's powers is going into overheat and giving him all of that powers.
Origami: I see, sine it has nowhere to go, it's giving Shido incredible powers.
Kotori: Yeah, but it's extremely possible that it will go rampage with all eight of our spirit powers.
Darren: (Haywire huh? I don't want to be involved anymore)
I slowly walked away, teleporting myself back into the base earning a concerned look from Velzard, Wiz and Kurumi.
Kurumi: Darling, what happened?
Darren: I went training today. It was shit but I gained progress.
Kurumi: Did you go during PE class??
Darren: Yeah. I summoned around 10 shadow soldiers to attack me all at the same time. Ima go for a walk if you guys wanna join me.
While I was on my walk and ordering some takoyaki, I saw Shido walk past me. Looking extremely tired while doing so. I tailed him for a bit before watching him encounter Ellen. I was ready to jump out and kick Ellen square in the face if she dared to harm Shido. Although I would go out late just to watch Shido get punched in the face first.
Ellen: Shido Itsuka??
Shido POV:
I turned around at the voice.
Shido: A woman?
Shido: (It's a woman, gotta make her fall for me that's my duty after all)
I held her hand and started talking.
Shido: I missed you so much, Ellen!
Ellen: How can you be doing this? You're inside my territory?
Shido: Don't be so hostile, Ellen. I just want us to understand each other.
Ellen: This joke of yours isn't funny.
Shido: Forget about Ratatorskr and DEM we can still love each other. Ellen, it's you that I-
Ellen: Enough of this!
She threw her hat at my face while preparing for a kick. I dodged that kick though and when she went off balance, I caught her in my arms. I placed her safely onto the ground.
Shido: Don't cause me too much trouble now.
I said, as I placed her hat back onto her head.
Shido: Bye-bye. My cute Ellen.
I walked away while Ellen started to curse at me.
Darren POV:
I didn't break my poker face somehow even after witnessing all of that ridiculous event turnout.
Darren: (Wait wtf? How did Shido just?? Never mind. I guess that's what Kotori meant.)
I followed Shido still even after sending a show soldier into his shadow.
Shido: Ahh, my body's as light as a feather.
Shido: I feel great! Everybody's power is surging inside of me!
Darren: (Yep, its definitely what Kotori is talking about.)
I watched Shido using his powers as he made flowers bloom and made other people fall in love with each other. I shuddered a little as I encountered that. I even heard Shido sprout out weird shit like. With people even surrounding him and dancing with him.
Shido: I love you, I want you, I need you! The sky is blue! And my heart is clear and bright!
Darren: (Damn, if Kurumi was there and I was Shido. I would be dead on the spot the moment she found out.)
Tohka: Shido!
I decided to also make my entrance at that moment.
Darren: Yo, Shido.
Shido finally turned around and looked at the crowd that surrounded him.
Shido: Hey, Tohka! Kotori! Everyone! Have you all come to see me?
Kotori: Listen up, Shido. We've come to save you.
Shido: Save me?
Darren: If you don't want to destroy everything you love. Listen to this strawberry loli Shido.
After they all explained the situation to Shido.
Shido: Yeah? You all want to kiss me?
Darren: Not me, I'm fine after all I'm out of here after you guys finish your discussion.
Kotori: *pulls on my ear* You're staying here to discuss with us.
Darren: Fine.
Miku: Yes! With an especially passionate smooch.
Darren: Uh Miku please get yourself under control.
Shido: All right. Though, I'll kind of regret losing this power...
Darren: I never thought it would be that easy.
Shido: However, there's a condition!
Darren: I fucking jinxed it great.
Kaguya: What condition?!
Yuzuru: Interesting, let's hear it.
Shido: I made you all fall for me in order to seal your spirit powers. This time, you'll have to make me fall for you. But to be honest I already liked you guys as you are.
Darren: Shido, you sound like a fucking playboy right now.
Shido: Please shush. So to say "Make me fall for you" is a bit off the mark. Use whatever method you want to make my heart skip a beat. Enough that I can't wait to kiss you. Yeah?
Darren: Alright since the conditions have been set. Ima go train now.
Shido: Then let's get started... and begin our date.
Kotori: Our time limit is twelve o' clock we have until then to make his heart skip a beat.
Darren: Ima head off now.
I smirked slowly knowing that everything is going to plan.
Darren: (Those fools. They don't know that I was the one who wanted them to do this. Now I can do the second step of my plan. A new spirit would land soon I need her on my side).
While all of them went to discuss the battle plans for Shido. I headed over to a plains biome where a spatial quake started occurring.
Darren: Appear. You fools!!!
A spirit appeared from being summoned due to my shadow powers.
???: Who are you??
Darren: Gojo Satoru is all you need to know for now. May I know your name?
???: I'm Yuko Drago. Pleased to meet you, Gojo Satoru.
Gojo: Pleased to meet you, Yuko. Aaah, seems like someone is here.
Shoto as I ordered appeared from behind the trees along with Hurwhiill roaring ever so loudly.
Darren: Yuko, go I'll hold them off.
I rushed towards Shoto and Hurwhiill who started roaring as I pretended to go unconscious after one swing from Hurwhiill's tail. Yuko then exploded her spirit powers and I finally identified it. It was the power of being able to read ahead of time. Shoto and Hurwhiill had difficulty defeating Yuko but due to her overusing her eyes. She passed out and I took the opportunity to steal her powers showing my true nature for the first time.
Darren: Sorry Yuko, but I just needed your spirit powers.
Yuko: You betrayed me.
Darren: No I didn't as I was never on your side in the first place. I can't believe you were tricked.
Yuko: Fuck you.
After that she turned into astral dust. I placed my hand on my left eye as it means I was able to finally rewind and skip ahead of time but only for five seconds.
Darren: I knew making my way here was worth it.
I returned back to the city as I watched Shido being swarmed by his girls and I was both shocked and a little bit jealous. I didn't let that affect my poker face though. But I need more soldiers if I were to fight against Asmodeus which would be soon.
Darren: (I guess a little break wouldn't hurt I wanna go sleep at Wiz's)
I walked towards Wiz's shop and wanted to sleep a little there, before seeing Wiz already sleeping there. I also carefully sneaked into the blanket and I stared at Wiz's sleeping face before also falling asleep. I woke up after a while and saw Wiz already attending the shop.
Wiz: Ah, Darren-Chan you woke up. Sorry for sleeping on work. You sleeping face looked really cute by the way.
Darren: *while blushing* I won't forgive you for sleeping during work times you know?? But since I also fell asleep I would allow it.
Wiz: thank you boss.
Darren: Hmmm, time to check on Shido I guess.
I looked at the hall with my eyes not averting from Shido while standing on top of Hurwhiill.
Darren: Strange, it seems like he's going to go on a rampage again. It would certainly be interesting if he did. It would cause chaos.
The moment I said that, Shido started clutching his head in pain and burst through the window. I smiled the moment he did so.
Darren: YES!! YES SHIDO!!! GO ON A RAMPAGE!!! SHOTO!!
Shoto immediately appeared behind me and bowed at me.
Shoto: Yes my liege??
Darren: Go and find Kurumi. Hold her off as much as you can.
Shoto: I understand my liege.
I smirked knowing that my perfect shot to cause chaos is right in front of me yet I didn't want to exactly see Shido go on a rampage.
Darren: Shoto, I retract my order return.
Shoto: Yes, my lord.
I watched everyone try to help Shido and my heart pained again when I watched Kurumi save Shido by trapping him in her time restraint. I guess this is out of my pay grade but I decided to troll them a little.
Darren: Eyes of ruin.
I destroy Shido's time restraint and allowed him to go on a rampage again. Kurumi simply looked at the jet black dragon and not the figure that sat on the dragon's back. I just smirked at her.
Darren: I guess my fun is over. Hurwhiill let's get out of here.
Hurwhiill nodded in return and we flew off knowing what we will perform next. As the next act of the chaos stage I have set for everyone.
Darren: I might need a new general. All my generals are getting weak.
Season 3 of DAL lore is finally over. Now OG Arc, will begin next chapter.
