The aftermath of the fight was shocking to say the least. The civilians had their views changed of heroes, they felt great respect for the young teen who decided b.l.o.o.d.y his own hands while keeping him safe. They called him "Seraphim" for his conviction to kill villains and his appearance when battling the dragon. All Might and Rei also had a short talk as All Might disagreed with Rei"s views."Rei shounen, While I do commend your resolve I don"t think killing is the way." All Might said in his weakened form.
"All Might. Everything needs a balance. By being a hero we balance it by the burdens we carry. We cannot just shrug off the burdens saying they"re in jail, it"s fine. What if they break out? What if because of your carelessness, a family was split apart by the villain killing a member of that family. We should shoulder that burden of killing evil at the root to keep the peace." Rei said countering All Might before he turned away to find his mother. All Might was left there thinking about his ideal symbol of peace.
On further notice, the council had wanted to arrest Rei but the people had started a revolt saying that they didn"t want a true hero being jailed, they wanted villains to be who have killed to be dealt with the death. The council could only compromise by saying if the villain has killed, the heroes are allowed to use lethal force and that if they are not killed when taken to jail they will be killed by the council. Appeased, the civilians had been much more happy while the villains are deterred with a time bomb like Rei lurking around that will kill them instantly and the heroes not being afraid to kill them.
However, for the heroes many had quit seeing how they would have to kill, but the remaining ones are people who have been determined to dirty their hands for the civilians.
Rei on the other hand was sitting next to his mother waiting for her to awaken. The doctors were not able to give her arm back so Rei decided to trace Avalon out into the real world. And surprise the sheath had managed to heal her arm but could not be integrated with her, seeing this Rei decided to try heal All Might but because he had the wound for so long he couldn"t manage to heal him.
sighing Rei decided that he held off for long enough.
"Eve, I think it"s time to talk to the demon again."
{Are you sure Rei?}
"Yeah...."
{Ok but remember Rei...Be careful..} Eve said in worry.
"Of course."
Rei said entering his mindscape.
"Come out Seal Of Solomon."
A golden ring appeared while the black portal expanded showing the fire demon chained up.
"Kekeke, So my host has finally decided to see me. Oh~ it"s been what 15years?" The demon chuckled darkly.
"Yes indeed." Rei said ignoring the demons playfulness.
"So what brings my host to me after all these years?"
"I want learn the full fire demon slaying arts."
Rei said sitting down in front of him.
"What makes you think I"ll just teach it too you." The demon said without smiling.
"I don"t, I just think that I should interact with the ugly side of my soul after all." Rei said.
"..." The demon looked at Rei questionably.
"Don"t be surprised. Emiya told me all about you spirits being apart of my soul. So at this point I want to understand myself more as well as you. After all, I might understand how the demon slaying art works more by understanding a demon." Rei said while the demon still still silent. Tracing out Kyoki Rei said.
"You know? I have a feeling that you"re my battle crazy side no? I like my battle"s so far. Each moment brings me joy. Of course, I also believe you are my violent side too. So when I made Kyoki I put all of my battle intent, bloodthirst and my violence in here. You could also say that Kyoki is your blade." Rei said showing Kyoki to the demon.
"Hahahaha, so you already accepted the ugly side of you...what took you so long?" The demon said with a slight smile.
"Just had a wake up call by Eve ya know? That and also had a bunch of s.h.i.+t to deal with." Rei shrugged.
"Hahahaha, but you know , unlike Emiya and the ice dragon I don"t go away."
"Hmm well that"s something new." Rei said looking at the demon.
"Hahahahaha well you see when you sealed me with ring of Solomon you guys probably forgot what else it does. By sealing me into your body since your reality marble is you inner world. The ring has infused my bloodline into yours. But it had repressed the appearance part of the bloodline. so technically your a demon and I now reside in your bloodline. Hahahahahaha! You"ve became my descendant." The demon said laughing in joy, it wasn"t his psychotic kind either.
"Wait so if I decided to kill you i"ll be killing my own bloodline and return....Kill myself?" Rei said flabbergasted.
"HAHAHAHA! Indeed." The demon said in mischief.
"Why are you like this? I thought you wanted to take my body years ago?" Rei asked a question that had plagued his mind.
"Well we demons are mischievous ent.i.ties after all. That and also you were such a p.u.s.s.y I couldn"t stand it. My host was such a p.u.s.s.y b.i.t.c.h I should make him fear me so he mans up and get stronger faster. Was my thought process." The demon said with a smirk.
"Wait didn"t you pick a fight with the ice dragon though?" Rei asked again.
"Hahaha, stupid prideful p.r.i.c.k though he was same level as me. I can increase rank you know, magic grows with you after all. Think of it this way a new born kid at full strength looks at you with arrogance when you show same strength as him. So of course i"ll try f.u.c.k him up. Hahaha" The demon said laughing.
"Huh..." Rei said.
"So you"ll just be here?" Rei asked.
"Nope, you can either summon me since I reside in your bloodline. I won"t be here but unlike Emiya I can come back when you want to." The demon said.
"So can you like undo this chain cuz it hurts like s.h.i.+t you know." The demon gestured at the chains.
"Uhh sure..." Rei said undoing it.
"HAHAHA IDIOT!!" The demon said startling Rei as he stood up quickly. With Kyoki ready.
"HAHAHAHA YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN YOUR FACE!!!" The demon said sitting back down.
"Are you f.u.c.king serious...." Rei said as the corner of his mouth twitched
"No but seriously, when your dealing with demons don"t be too trusting." The demon said seriously.
"You could have told me that without scaring the s.h.i.+t out of me." Rei said sitting back down.
"So I should be fading to your bloodline soon." The demon said looking at his arm fading.
"You don"t need any help from me with the demon slayer arts magic, it is shaped by your imagination and will. The la.s.s you call Eve, don"t betray her by taking more girls ok?" The demon said with a smile.
"Of course what do you take me for?" Rei retorted.
"Hahahahaha! Good luck in making her a body and also my name is Lucifer." Lucifer said while he faded away.
Back in the real world Rei opened his eye.
"...."
{Errr Rei? You ok?}
"Yeah I just realised that the demon was Lucifer. And he was not what I expected." Rei said still trying to understand everything that just happened.
{As long as your ok.} Eve said with relief.
"Mmm..."
Looking over Rei could see his mum waking up.
"Mum careful." Rei said helping her up.
"Rei...."
