Chapter 41 - Seeking the dragonoid

Apparently Milim had wanted that Walpurgis because she was expecting me to be there, in fact they all were expecting me to be there.

I honestly wish I could be there but I wasn't. I don't want the centre of attention in a room full of demon lords, especially if I'm a potential true hero… which,now that I say it, is something I hope Guy didn't mention.

I was currently taking over Claude's job as Shizu's instructor. After clapping Claude and Leon's statement that I shouldn't accidently kill Claude beforehand, all the magic knights secretly vowed to find a way to beat me. Now after I showed up accidentally showing off my aura, all the magic knights lost conviction.

My overall point being, Claude said that I was much stronger than him, Shizu liked me more and I was far more disciplined than my easygoing nature let's on to be. He convinced me to be Shizu's instructor.

I was currently forcing Shizu to be beaten be me, she was currently using a sword while I was using stick, didn't help her whatsoever. If Shizu thinks I'm gonna be a push ever, then she has another thing coming, if I'm gonna be tortured in training THEN SO SHOULD YOU…

…Ok I might have a problem.

"Mr Simon, why do you have to be so mean." Shizu was currently on the floor wailing.

"Did you think I was nicer than Claude? That I would give you leeway? Well you're sorely mistaken, I'm gonna be the worst thing you have faced in your life, I'LL MAKE SURE YOU SUFFER!" My outburst of frenzy and fanaticism scared Shizu, "Sorry, I won't go too far, just a little bit of sadistic fun."

"What's sadistic fun?"

"NOTHING!"

I had finished training with Shizu and gone in the room that Leon had issued me. I began turning off my Celestial haki, I wanted to experiment with my new magical power.

This new energy that came from me was essentially pseudo stardust. Stardust diluted by my magical energy, it was hard to control and extremely chaotic and began destroying shit around me as it moved.

I began seeing if this could be used in conjunction with any of of my skills. As befitting the power of the creator, it worked perfectly in creation and synthesis, improving the efficiency of Visionary.

In fact pseudo stardust works perfectly with every type of energy, every element, spiritrons, nihility, everything. It's might be because every energy, theoretically, originated from stardust. I might not have gained any new skills but I basically got a boost to… well everything. The bad part is that I gain a boost to everything… ironic huh.

But seriously, my new power is extremely unstable, now I have to get used to my strength… again FUCK.

Until I can control it or find a way to cheat the system, I'm gonna keep this hidden so isn't going out of control.

"UMMM, BIG BROTHERS FACTOR." Veldora was scratching his head and seemed stumped by my plight.

"You don't have a way to control it?"

"IMA BE STRAIGHT WITH YOU, TRYING TO UNDERSTAND VELDANAVA'S POWER IS NO DIFFERENT THAN TRYING TO SOLVE THE SOURCE CODE TO LIFE. EVEN WITH MY UNIQUE SKILL THAT ALLOWS ME TO CHECK HISTORY, I CAN'T DO ANYTHING." Veldora seemed sympathetic to my problem.

"You seem to empathize with my problem, have you had a power that you couldn't control?"

"NO, NOT A POWER PER SAY BUT A FAMILY." Oh… I guess that makes sense. Veldora's reasons for avoiding his sister's has always been something allusive to readers of the lightnovels. His reason for avoiding Velzard was easy to infer, but not Velgrynd. Well Veldora never sought affection but equality, he wanted his sister's to treat him as an equal. Velzard was down right cold and cruel while Velgryind's affectionate treatment was more of a owner loving a pet.

"I guess… that's understandable. You got nothing else for me?"

" YOU COULD JUST GO TO THE ONLY PERSON WHO HAS CURRENT INFORMATION ON STARDUST."

" Do I have too, I've been purposely avoiding that alternative. I've trained under demon lords before but that one is… unstable."

" WELL, FROM WHAT YOU'VE TOLD ME, YOU ARE ALSO UNSTABLE. NOT TO MENTION SHE'S PROBABLY THE ONLY PERSON WHO HAS INFORMATION ON CONTROLLING STARDUST."

I just sighed in defeat, " How did this happen to me, I've made my mistakes, got nowhere to run." I began to decrepidly sing, my voice slowly dying in accordance to the death of my spirit. I brought my spirit back immediately, "Fine, this is going to be shit."

I had finally found it, the city of the forgotten dragon, the domain of demon lord… Milim nava. Just thinking about her name made me shiver, I might be chaotic, but she sets the bar to a whole nother level, the difference is I'm not ir-fucking-rational.

I landed down to the ground in which I got an earful from a familiar character, "And who might you be, you dare tread upon the domain of demon lord Milim with such a casual manner!" Father Middray screamed at me.

I just ignored his scream and scanned the area for the most powerful individual but could not find Milim, "Is Milim not here?" I asked.

Middray was astounded by my audacity, "Just who do you think you are? Do you believe you are deserving of being in her PRESENCE!" Middray threw kick to my face, his foot moving at a speed faster than the human eye can track until… 'What the hell!" Middray's thoughts rang out in disbelief, when his kick made contact, not only did it feel like he had hit an impenetrable wall but the bones in his own foot began to fracture. He jumped back.

" Apologies Father but I don't mean to be hostile or disrespectful. I just want to talk to the demon lord Milim on something." Despite being kicked in the face, I wasn't really phased, that kick, not only felt like slow motion, but the impact felt like pillow.

"Middray, stand down." Suddenly a booming voice came from above. Both of us looked up to find a petite girl with pink hair floating down, "I am the great destroyer, demon lord Milim! And you Simon, I declare to be my servant from this day forward!" Her voice boomed in her normally haughty tone.

"Pass." I responded fervently.
