Chapter 197: They're here… (1)
—
Later that day, Yue had taken Kimi as her personal disciple, much to the latter's amusent and Neji's shock.
After that the vampire confessed to Neji about her lack of teacher qualities and suggested that he recruited the master of the Magic Tower, instead.
'If she can't teach them properly, even if she's super strong, things are aningless. I guess I do need a better teacher.'
Though that only made it more confusing as to why she took Kimi as her disciple.
When asked why, she answered with slight fascination in her tone.
"To learn magic, teachers aren't always required. Look at ancient dragons for example. They are so talented that they catch on any spell just by seeing it used once, they don't need to be taught. This cat-woman's talent far surpasses even dragons, she just needs soone to show her what magic to cast, not how to cast them. I am skilled enough to be able to do that, at least."
Neji was surprised yet again. Was Kimi really that good? How?
He soon realised the "how" part when Yue asked if Kimi was artificially created or not.
'Of course, she's a copy of Nawab, that strange otherworldly woman.'
Neji still didn't know what Nawab was, to this day. Her Regression quirk, it shouldn't belong to a world like MHA. She might have had more to her origin than what t the eyes.
Whatever the case, she was gone, though still alive in so corner of the omniverse.
This ant Nawab was either- A natural born magic genius, or she managed to change her body in a way to beco a genius, either aware or unaware. So, when Kimi was cloned from her body, she inherited Nawab's magic constitution.
Neji gave Yue a brief of this story, which made the vampire nod her head in understanding.
"So, who's the magic tower Master? You seem to trust this person's teaching capabilities a lot."
"She…" Yue trailed off, looking into his eyes. "She's soone like , soone from outside this dinsion. But unlike , she didn't co when the outer Gods attacked. She allegedly tried to escape from her dinsion to run from her father, and ended up here, now unable to leave. Also she's pretty good with dinsional magic, it's better to show her that coupon you received as a loot instead of ."
"Oh?"
That's interesting. Who was this new fatherless girl?
By now, Neji had heard a summary of when, how, and why Yue was in this dinsion. So he knew she was the real deal, not a look-a-like. Then perhaps whoever this magical girl was, she may be soone he knew too?
Speaking of Yue's summary though, he also listened to her in-depth story of the "Outer Gods". Fortunately, they weren't the Lovecraft Outer Gods that Neji feared. People just referred to them as Outer Gods because they were Gods from outside this dinsion. From her story, it seed they were trying to conquer this dinsion before they were ultimately forced to flee.
It also seed that there was land outside of this continent, so this planet must be quite larger than Earth since this continent alone had more landmass than Earth, almost twice. Though when Neji tried to go around the planet by flight, he failed to do so after moving a few kilotres outside the sea.
A ssage had greeted him.
[The next region is yet to be unlocked. You have to visit another "Tower" to access that region.]
In the MHA world, only this Tower existed. aning, to access the other parts of this huge world, he would have to travel to another world and enter that Tower. He might et more summoned fictional people in the other parts, he guessed.
Honestly, that future didn't seem so far from here, now that the earth outside was at war.
"Anyway, we should et this Magic Master asap. I am kind of in an ergency, you see."
Yue nodded at his words and then opened a portal through which she guided Neji inside a luxurious office room that had a mixture of dieval and modern look to it.
Turned out, this world wasn't exactly dieval. There were fridges, TVs, trains in this world. Yet it lacked cars and smartphones.
There was a table and a chair in the room, with docunts placed on the table. From how scattered they were, it seed soone was working on them until not so long ago, but now the room was empty.
"Strange…"
"I don't think it's strange." Neji replied to the Vamp. "You know, this world was almost about to get destroyed. I saw people freaking out everywhere when you were busy with my girls. Nobody would be in their right mind to still work on papers."
The Vampire considered his words for a mont before nodding.
"That's true… Then I think I know where she is."
Saying so, she opened another portal and walked in, Neji following. Imdiately, he heard a bang from the other side.
"This can't be happening! Nobody has any answers, and the Empress isn't anywhere to be found!"
The room they ended up next was blooming with dozens of people sitting around a huge eting table, with the main chair empty, that chair should belong to the Empress, from the looks of it.
Opposite that chair though, on the other side of the table, the person Yue was talking about was present. Neji could tell imdiately because he was familiar with that girl.
As they entered the room, the person that had just yelled while slamming on the table, along with all the other people turned their gazes at the them.
"... It's the empress!"
"She's back!"
"Watch out, who's that behind her?"
"Wait, he matches the description of the terrorist!"
They all babbled amongst themselves, looking at each other with worried glances. Amidst them all, only the Magic Tower's Master stayed silent.
"Silence," Yue said in a cold voice, making the room quiet down imdiately. "You are in the presence of the God of this world, watch out how you talk."
Was she calling herself God? That was quite unusual from her personality until now-
"He, who is the owner of this dinsion, the single man who can destroy us all at a whim." The vamp interrupted his thoughts, presenting him to the crowd with her hands pointed at him. "et Neji, the King of this reality, the absolute ruler of this world."
The room fell silent. Along with Neji.
'Haah, wow.'
She didn't introduce him as the Gar, since he had warned her to not call him that in front of others, but this was surprising. In a sense, he truly was this place's God, as the world listened to any of his commands (at least this continent did).
"Is it an impostor…?"
One of the people present in the eting dared to say as he looked at Yue, only for his head burst into a puddle of blood.
The room fell silent again, with Neji controlling a snicker.
"It seems she's not an impostor, though I don't know about the boy." The magic tower master finally said sothing, standing up and walking closer to Neji's location.
She soon stood face to face with Neji, her red eyes looking at his blue ones while the red gem on her forehead glead softly. This beautiful young lady had pale, white skin, like that of a ghost, while her purple lips matched the colour of her hair, along with her purple leotard and cape.

It was Raven, daughter of Trigon.
"Who are you?" She asked without any emotion in her voice, looking into his eyes with her dry ones, as the glint in Neji's eyes turned mischievous.
He cleared his throat, grinning like a devil, before a deep almost scary voice left his throat. "You don't recognise , daughter? I am Trigo-"
He couldn't finish his words before the demon child made a move. Purple spheres appeared around her hands just as a dark tentacle wrapped around Neji's neck, causing his voice to stop. But the purple translucent tentacles didn't stop there, they kept increasing their pressure, squeezing Neji's neck as they tightened up each second, but…
Neji stood relaxed, shrugging a second later.
"I expected you to be stronger, honestly," he said, looking at the text hovering above her head.
[Raven - Princess of the Dark - Level 951]
As the devil princess flinched, purple lightning burst out from Neji's neck as the tentacles dispersed into dark essence. It appears that electricity had quite the resistance against Mana, so Neji could shake off most direct Mana attacks using it.
She tried to attack again, but Neji didn't even have to move as his vampire servant's eyes glead red and the girl failed to move, her body paralysing except for her eyes.
"I am not your father, cutie. It was a joke. Though I do know about him."
The girl, struggling for a mont, let out a sigh and closed her eyes as a sign of defeat, allowing Yue to free her.
She then crossed her arms and looked at Neji with squinted eyes. "How do you know Trigon?"
"As my beloved vampire said," Neji patted his pet blood sucker. "Like your father, I am sothing of a God myself."
"My father is not a God. Soone like him can't be one."
The girl opposed imdiately, missing the point.
"Well God, Devil, sa thing." Neji shrugged. "Didn't he have a cult? That makes him a God in my book, albeit an evil one."
"..."
"Anyway, I don't have the ti for all this." Neji went serious. "I need your help, and you will help. Either by force, or we can make a deal where I would answer so of your questions upon receiving your help."
"..."
He would co up with so bullshit when that ti cos, though he wouldn't even talk to her about it before the fight with the Gods.
"...What do you want to do?" The girl asked, frowning softly as Neji smiled.
"Many things, dear," he looked dreamy all of a sudden. "Many things…"
