A Necromantic Gamer's Journey(DxD)

Chapter 91: Nostalgia

*Slash!* *Stab!*

The first one...

No. He was not the first one.

He was not the first one created to serve his master regrettably. That belonged to his loyal companion Fido.

No, he was the first one crafted by his liege, who personally shaped him with his very hands for one purpose. He was created to serve his master as his shield and blade.

He was Alpha. And that is the reason for his existence.

Yet he was not able to.

*Slash!* *Stab!*

When his liege was in danger he wasn't of help. Against Toji his liege called him, he wasn't of help. Against Riser, he was not of help. Against the Heroes, he was outshined by Wiz and Ddraig, his lieges partners.

It was frustrating. A being made for doing a job it cannot do.

And so, he swung his sword relentlessly. Any moment his liege had no need for him he swung his blade to sharpen the sword that he was. He trained without even a moment of rest in the world contained in his lieges shadow.

Tens of hundreds of thousands of times he relentlessly swung his sword.

And then his liege bestowed upon him a gift. The ability to wield the very energy he himself uses to power himself.

Taking that generous gift from his creator Alpha did not slack. He spent every moment developing that gift. And that disposition had given him a gift much like his master's. His efforts and desires were rewarded.

The ability to serve the Lord of Death as his sword and shield.

...

Instantly, dozens of fish Shikigami appeared, biting down on Alpha. Yet none of their inferior teeth could hope to make it past his Armor of the Dammed. Such attacks were not enough to stop the iron wall that was Alpha from closing in.

From Dagon's perspective, it was like Alpha's presence was growing bigger by the second. He exuded an overwhelming aura of oppressive might. He sent several dozen sharp streams of water that impacted Alpha's head on yet it barely seemed to bother him let alone cause any meaningful damage.

"These fish, are proving, to be, a nuisance." A deep baritone voice rang out. And at that moment Dagon's eyes widened to the absolute limits.

*BOOOOOOOOOOM!*

A violent burst of cursed energy was released from Alpha, tearing apart all of the Shikigami ganging up on him.

Unlike the cursed energy reinforcement used by sorcerers, this was, while similar in concept was different. If theirs was a calm stream his was a raging torrent tearing everything. Cursed energy was gushing out of his body like a raging current.
