Strongest In DxD - Chapter 82

Gremory Territory, Underworld.

Clan Gremory is one of the remaining Devil Clans of the 72 Pillars and one of the highest ranked demonic families (Duke rank).

The house that produced the current "Lucifer", members of Clan Gremory are characterized by their auburn hair color and their powerful Demonic Powers. Clan Gremory are beings with extraordinary affection among demons. As such, they do not discriminate against their servants. Clan Gremory has a territory about the same size as Honshu in Japan and also has a large number of castles for its relatives. A very rich territory, but also with a developed industry.

In the clan's territory is an area with a well-shaded forest and a range full of high mountains. One of these mountains is higher than Japan's tallest mountain, Mount Fuji, with an elevation of 4,000 meters. There is also a large lake in this area where Lilitifa Vepar settled.

It was night in the Underworld, the fake moonlight created by the demons shining through the Underworld illuminating Clan Gremory and the other clans.

In a very spacious room of the Gremory clan it was possible to see a young girl with long red hair and a voluptuous body sleeping peacefully.

This was Rias Gremory, the heiress of the Gremory clan and the woman who had helped Ajuka find Ren Katsuo.

She was sleeping peacefully in her room while her eyelids fluttered slightly giving signs of her waking up.

Since she had been attacked by Ren the Gremory heiress hadn't been able to sleep well anymore, [Tsukuyomi's] psychological damage had left her in a catatonic state for several days.

Only thanks to the best Underworld doctors were able to reverse, even partially, the effect of the technique allowing Rias to return to his normal life.

Although she was still very limited in what she could do as her body also had serious after-effects to the point that she could barely walk alone.

Rias' eyes fluttered as they slowly opened, trying to move his wrists Rias's eyes widened as he realized she couldn't.

Looking up Rias saw that her wrists were bound by strange purple chains and she couldn't move.

"Don't worry, you'll never be able to break these chains"

Rias' eyes shifted to the source of the voice and she saw a woman who could be described as a "depraved beauty" and an "incomparably beautiful woman" wrapped in a dress as "dark as midnight" that gives off a scent pleasant.

"My name is Semiramis, it's a pleasure to meet you Rias Gremory" said the woman smiling.

Semiramis slowly approached Rias.

"I came here at the behest of my master Ren Katsuo," she stated calmly.

Rias' eyes widened in horror at what she heard.

"Wh-what do you want" Rias stammered in fear as her body shook.

Semiramis only smiled.

"Haven't you ever wondered why my master left a worm like you alive?" asked Semiramis with a visibly surprised face.

"It wasn't just to hit Sirzechs Lucifer, his death would hit him even more, it was because he knew Ajuka Beelzebub would come to you looking for an answer, and you would say what you knew leading Ajuka to find Ren" informed Semiramis calmly.

Rias' eyes widened more and more at Semiramis' explanation.

"But now you have no use, and as Ajuka probably told you what she knew means that you are the only person who knows your true identity among your enemies," said Semiramis, not caring.

Rias didn't even try to deny it as that was true, Ajuka had told her everything she knew and that's why Rias knew who Ren really was, about him being the wielder of the Holy Lance.

"Honestly, that man is so smart he scares me," Semiramis said to herself.

Turning her gaze to Rias, the Queen of Assyria smiled.

Semiramis touched Rias' dresser and a small magic circle appeared and when it disappeared, dozens of vials of poison were revealed.

"You know, I'm very interested in how my poisons affected a demon," said Semiramis smiling only as Rias' eyes widened in horror.

"And don't worry, I've made a barrier around the room so you can scream all you want, plus I'll make your death look like nothing more than a suicide, you couldn't stand everything that was happening" said the woman smiling.

Rias' eyes widened in horror as Semiramis moved closer and closer to her.

After that all that could be heard in the Gremory Heiress' bedroom were her screams of agony and pain as she fell victim to Assasin's poisons.

...

Some Time Later.

It had been a while since Ren and his handmaidens had attacked the Three Factions Meeting, and after the battle Ren had used his [Kotoamatsukami] on Azazel, Gabriel and Serafall he and his handmaidens had decided to return to Ren's home as Ren wanted to show his companions something.

One more thing Ren had decided to do was to organize the skills and items he had acquired from using the [King of Gluttony Beelzebuth] in his last battle.

Ren had actually discovered that this Ultimate Skill of his had a few sub-skills.

One of them was called [Food Chain],it is a skill that allows Ren to share his skills and lend skills to people who are his subordinates.

In this case, Ren could grant some skills like [Fire Devil Slayer Magic] to his handmaidens, as well as take some skills from her, be it skills or even Noble Phantasms.

Taking advantage of this Ren had taken some skills from his handmaidens, from Joan he had taken the [Dragon Witch] skill that allowed Ren to enslave Dragons and force them to obey him. from Scathach he had taken the [Primordial Rune] skill that granted Ren an enormous knowledge of Runes and also the [God Slayer] skill that made all his blows more dangerous against Gods.

Ren had decided to keep only these for the time being because they were the most useful, besides of course the skills he had acquired in his last battle.
