"Thanks, then I'll take this spot."
Yahweh extended her hand and pointed to an area on the edge of the Gremory clan's territory.
Rias reminded, "The developnt of that area isn't very good. Are you sure you want to choose that as your territory? It's still not too late to change now. It'll be hard to change once it's submitted."
Yahweh insisted on her idea, "No need, it being undeveloped makes it easier for to work with."
Ever since Genesis was activated, the inspiration in her mind had been inexhaustible.
Aside from Sacred Gears and various strange tools, she had also developed many civilian tools. Having an undeveloped area as her territory was perfect for testing the effects of new tools.
After confirming with Rias, Yahweh pulled Tatsuma, who was still reading, over and pointed to the area next to her territory.
"Tatsuma, choose that place as your territory. I'll help you manage it when the ti cos."
"Whatever you want, I don't really care."
Tatsuma wasn't very concerned about the territory and casually agreed to Yahweh's request.
The train continued forward, and the girls, at Rias's invitation, began choosing their territories.
However, perhaps because Tatsuma's territory was close to the edge of the Gremory clan's territory, the girls also chose the surrounding areas.
After so choosing, more than half of the eastern edge of the Gremory clan's territory was selected.
Yahweh inquired and found that the girls weren't very skilled at managent, so she naturally took on the managent work.
Seeing this, Rias's expression beca subtle. But considering that Yahweh wouldn't do anything strange like setting up a border vassal king, she didn't say much.
The train continued forward, and after more than ten minutes, a broadcast sounded in the compartnt.
[The train will soon arrive at the Gremory main residence. Thank you for riding.]
Closing the window, Rias took the lead in opening the door and stepped out.
On both sides of the aisle outside the train, a large number of Gremory Devils in military uniforms were standing.
"Welco back, Rias-sama!"
Seeing Rias appear, these Devils straightened their bodies and imdiately cheered.
Sounds of pops rang out, and a large amount of fireworks exploded in the sky, leaving behind brilliant colors. Amidst the music, there were also many Gremory Devils riding griffins, waving flags in the sky.
"Oh! So many people!" Asia was startled.
Valerie and Avrora quietly shrunk behind Tatsuma.
"Relax, don't be too nervous."
After comforting them, Tatsuma scanned the surroundings, admiring the astonishing welcoming ceremony.
"Thank you everyone, I'm back."
Rias's deanor was very calm, seemingly accustod to this kind of situation.
After waving and greeting the surrounding Devils, she led Tatsuma and the others onto a carriage.
A long line of carriages began to move, and everyone arrived in front of a huge castle.
A red carpet extended from inside the castle all the way outside, with a large number of maids standing on both sides to welco them.
Passing through the huge gate, everyone followed the carpet all the way into the interior of the castle.
Just then, a woman in a luxurious gown ca forward to greet them.
"Welco back, Rias."
"Mother, long ti no see." Rias greeted her happily.
"You've brought back many guests." Venelana chuckled softly, her gaze passing over Rias to look at the man behind her.
"Welco to the Gremory clan, Tatsuma."
"I am Rias's mother, Venelana Gremory."
"Good afternoon, mother."
Tatsuma very casually drew the relationship closer, which made Venelana pause for a mont.
Recovering, her smile beca more sincere, and a look of satisfaction appeared on her face.
"I've heard about Grayfia. You and Sirzechs are competing fairly. I won't say anything about this matter. Just treat this place as your ho."
"Then I won't be polite."
Tatsuma handed over the gift he had prepared in advance, and casually took out his instructor badge and put it on.
He had inquired with Rias and knew that at ho, her mother's status was higher than her father's. Getting along well with his mother-in-law would allow him to boldly farm traits later.
...
Hueco Mundo, Forest of nos.
At the sa ti that Tatsuma was wandering around the Gremory main residence, Grayfia, who had remained in the Human World alone, ca to Hueco Mundo again.
Stepping out of the spatial passage, Grayfia appeared in an empty forest.
The Forest of nos is located underground in Hueco Mundo, covered by desert above, making it very dark.
However, as a Pure-Blooded Devil, Grayfia naturally wouldn't be affected by the dark environnt. Her gaze pierced through the darkness, and she looked at the Gillian wandering ahead.
Without using the Vorpal Sword, Grayfia reached for another weapon at her waist.
A cold light flashed, and the Gillian was instantly cut down. A holy aura rose from the Gillian's corpse, its soul was purified, and it entered the cycle of reincarnation.
After that, Grayfia didn't stop, her figure constantly flickering within the Forest of nos.
Soul Society and Hueco Mundo maintain a certain balance, so Grayfia didn't use magic for large-scale bombing. Like daily training, she continuously swung the blade in her hand, accurately hitting the weak points of these Hollows.
One Hollow after another was purified, and faintly, the aura of the Forest of nos beca less gloomy.
However, just then, a Reiatsu fluctuation ca from afar, enveloping the area where Grayfia was located.
"Hmm?"
Grayfia stopped her training and looked in the direction from which the Reiatsu ca.
Without a doubt, this was the Reiatsu of a Hollow. Moreover, judging from the scale of the Reiatsu, it was even higher than Szayelaporro, whom she had cut down this morning.
Szayelaporro was an Espada. With Reiatsu higher than Szayelaporro, the identity of the opponent was obvious, at least one of the top five Espada.
"Grayfia, be careful. This should be a trap. The opponent is deliberately releasing Reiatsu to lure you over."
"Mm, I know."
Grayfia nodded slightly, then continued to advance towards the direction from which the Reiatsu ca.
A minute later, she arrived at an empty area. Not far away, a skeleton wearing a crown and burning with black flas was at the source of the Reiatsu.
"You've co, intruder."
Baraggan sat on his throne, his Reiatsu further increasing, emitting a terrifying aura.
"To be able to kill Szayelaporro, your strength is quite good. Surrender to and tell your purpose for coming here, and I can spare your life."
Just then, two figures appeared on the trees on the left and right sides.
The First Espada, Coyote Starrk.
The Third Espada, Tier Harribel.
Grayfia quickly recognized the identities of these two Hollows.
Like Baraggan, they were also Espada of Hueco Mundo, and their ranks were very high.
"Just by killing one Espada, three Vasto Lordes are dispatched to capture ."
Grayfia narrowed her eyes, thinking about the various possibilities behind this situation.
However, just then, Baraggan's voice, tinged with anger, suddenly rang out. "Devil! Are you ignoring my words!"
"There's nothing for us to talk about."
Grayfia temporarily withdrew her attention, raised her sword, and swung it at Baraggan from a distance. The next mont, a slash emitting terrifying power shot out, shooting towards Barragan.
"Hmph! You don't know what's good for you!" Baraggan snorted coldly, no longer holding back.
Black smoke of decay spread from his body, and the giant slash was affected, slowly dissipating.
"It seems I can't slack off."
Starrk on the tree sighed quietly, drawing his twin pistols and aiming at Grayfia.
A roar sounded, and hundreds of Ceros descended overwhelmingly, covering the surrounding area.
"As expected of a Vasto Lorde." Grayfia let out a sigh.
There are also levels among Ceros. Starrk's Cero was enough to destroy an Adjuchas-level Hollow with a single blow. To shoot out hundreds of Ceros in an instant, his strength was imaginable.
Without the thought of limiting her strength and fighting slowly, Grayfia entered the resonance state, her aura soaring.
Bang!
Hundreds of Ceros were smoothly cut down, and Grayfia appeared in front of Starrk.
However, just as she was about to deal with Starrk, the alarm in her heart suddenly blared.
Grayfia frowned, kicked Starrk away, and simultaneously flipped halfway in the air, slashing behind her.
Without making the slightest sound, her weapon stopped in mid-air.
"I see, so that's what's going on."
Seeing this scene, Grayfia's figure flickered and appeared a hundred ters away, her expression becoming serious.
"Co out, Aizen."
"I didn't expect you to block it."
Faint ripples rose, and Aizen appeared in the clearing without a sound, raising his hand to push up his glasses.
"I believe I didn't show any openings. Can you tell how you deciphered Kyoka Suigetsu?"
"Intuition."
A glint of thought flashed in Grayfia's eyes.
To be honest, she was quite surprised by what had just happened.
According to the information provided by Tatsuma, Aizen's Kyoka Suigetsu requires seeing the Shikai to be hypnotized. But she was affected even before seeing Aizen himself.
What was going on?
