Entering the World of HSDxD 26 A Show of Power

Yu - Yup

Since it was so loud here the guards could hear our voices well and continued to guide us towards their leader. I'm kind of excited, from an outside perspective I may have been bound by chains but my expression looked as if was having a nice stroll. Magari was confused by my attitude along with the fact that we "surrendered" so easily.

Yu - *sigh*

Since I didn't want her to continue to stare at me I took a telepathy rune from my inventory and flicked my wrist to toss it to her. She was able to catch it and boy did she have a lot of questions.

Magari - {Yu-sama why did you follow these people so easily!! Even if I had to put my life on the line you could have gotten away!! Why!?!? Do you know how dangerous it is to walk into an enemy encampment-}

Yu - {Magari calm down, listen to me. First, we are not in danger so there's no need to worry about it, second, while I do appreciate the thought of you risking your life for me, however, think about the others how would they feel if you were gone. Plus even if we did fight back there neither of us were going to die. At most we'd escape while leaving those guys heavily injured.}

These were words that came straight from my heart if I wanted to get away from those guys I could just enter Haven and they'd never be the wiser. Same for myself I can also instantly bring in people and items into Haven. So if those guys were going trying to kill us I'd teleport away while leaving them a couple hundred explosive rune as a present. For the return trip home the reason I set up a transportation formation was so I can always have a fast way home. It's meant to be a relay point that I can use to go home instantly if I'm ever too far away to use [spatial movement].

As for the problem with these chains well... I was still in my [Void Demon Form] and thus could have these chains just pass through me. Then I could send Magari's chains into Haven and we'd both be free to fight. Even if this place does have space restriction formations both my access to Haven and my innate abilities surpass them.

I told this to Magari and she was shocked at my deductive reasoning, she seemed to have forgotten what I was capable of when she so those fox clansmen.

Magari - {But Yu-sama... why did you let them capture you?... I don't understand why you would want to come here?}

Yu - {Simple I wanted to see the situation of the Yokai faction.}

With so many different yokai a lot of which have powerful fighting abilities like the Nekoshou, but from what I remember from the anime they were easily infiltrated and their leader was captured. From my deductions, Yasaka should be around the Ultimate Rank and what I want to know is how she got captured.

Cao Cao's group wasn't very large and I highly doubt they were able to take out the whole Yokai Factions while the Devils, Angels, and Fallen Angels were in Kyoto. So I came up with 2 possibilities, one there's a mole in the Yokai faction or two the Yokai faction was weakened to an extent that their defenses were lacking in some places allowing the kidnapping to happen.

Right now I'm here cause I want to confirm my suspicion i-it's definitely not because I want to see Yasaka or anything...*cough* *cough*

Okay back to business, we were currently before the main hall door and even from here I could hear footsteps from behind the door. Without asking for permission one of the fox clansmen opened the door and I saw a traditional Japanese hall with multiple sitting around a table.

At the head of the table was a woman in a yellow kimono and as a man, my eyes were drawn to the abundant fruit in her embrace. However, while I was a man I was also a gentleman and looked for but a fraction of a second before looking at her face.

Thankfully she didn't see me, and I was able to avoid being seen as a pervert (I have no plans on being a replacement Issei).

Guard - Lady Matriarch we've brought the criminals

Yu - Ay wo! I already told you dumbass we aren't criminals!

I was not about to be framed for something I didn't do so obviously I had to comment back but this guy seemed to be the unreasonable type.

Guard - Silence yo-

He wanted to slap me mid-sentence but I was already a pretty reserved person and this guy was already pressing my buttons. So while he was about to hit my face I used [Seiryu's Wrath]. One of the bonus abilities of this skill was a mental attack so with only s thought I formed a needle-shaped spirit weapon and sent it flying to his brain before he could hit me.

The result, he ended up stumbling a couple feet backward with blood coming out of his mouth, eyes, nose, and ears and this was the expected result. After all, this ability is that of a Primordial Azure Dragon, and this guy wasn't even Super Rank and even if he was he'd still stumble back a couple feet.

Why? Some people would ask it's because yokai are, part spirit so it's reasonable to say that they'd get damaged more from spirit based attacks like the one I used than a physical one. When my observation was done I saw that the entire hall was quiet and looked at me with vigilance, even Magari showed me a shocked expression.

The clansmen who tried to attack me looked pale and couldn't stand so he kneeled on the ground, I ignored him and made my way towards the table. But since I didn't want to be chained anymore I turned part of my body etherial and had the chains pass through me.

And as for Magari I just waved my hand and her chains disappeared. With her chains gone she also ignored the guards and followed 2 steps behind me. Finally, I stopped about 3 feet from the table, clasped my hands behind my back, and gave them a kind smile.

Yu - Hello, you must all be part of the Yokai Factions upper echelon, my name is Yu Hyoudou but you may call me Yu.

Some yokai looked at me with great vigilance with the only exception being Yasaka who stood up and greeted me with a small bow and a smile.

Yasaka - It is a pleasure to meet you Hyoudou-dono I am Yasaka leader of the yokai faction and Matriarch of the Fox clan. Pardon my rudeness but what business does Hyoudou-dono want with us today?

Yu - Oh me? I was just in the neighborhood and was invited by the guys behind me to come over.

Hearing my words the guards behind me and the men at the table couldn't help themselves from sneering at me.

Yu - But enough about me what about you guy. It seems like you could use some help?

Stepping closer to the table I pulled out a chair and scanned all of the contents on the table.

Yu - Civil War... Huh? ...
