Ultimate Herrsher in DxD

Chapter 13: [13]3 years later



In one of the countries most elite highschool in Germany there could be many students in uniform talking to each other through the refined looking halls.

Of course that talking ceased as a group of people began walking through the hall,it was the student council.

Like as if the student council was Moses, the crowd of students split to the sides like the red sea.

"Wow that them?"

"Kya~! the student president is so handsome!"

"Dam their visuals are off the charts"

Multiple whispers went through the crowd of students as the council walked.

"Wow, so that's the student council huh?" Said a boy with brown hair.

"Yeah, you never seen them before?" Said his friend besides him.

"Nope, I'm a freshman remember" he replied back.

"Oh that's right" he said with a wry smile.

"Anyways, tell me more about them. I'm kinda curious what all the fuz is about" despite being new to the elite school, he has heard a lot a out them but has never had the chance to see them in person.

"Luckily for you, you asked the right person" said the friend with a smile.

"So the redhead that's super elegant is Himeko Murata and is 15 years old, she's the student councils Treasurer" Explained the friend.

"Himeko Murata?, sounds Japanese?" Replied the boy.

"Yeah I thought the same thing when I first heard her name. Anyways the Boy that looks to cute to be a boy is Gasper Vladi 14 years old, the student council Secretary. Despite his looks he is wicked at everything computers"

"Boy?" Asked the student, he was sure he was a girl after all he was wearing a skirt.

"It's a cross dresser thing don't think much or you will get your ass beat. Now then to the next person. The guy with brown hair and glasses is Welt Yang, vice-president of the student council and the second top scores school-wise in the world"

"I'm the world?, damn he's hella smart huh?"

"Yeah but he still isn't a match for the top one"

"Whose the top one?"

"The student council president of course"

"Oh"

"Yeah oh, anyways next person. The beautiful long haired Blonde with red eyes is Valerie Tepes and is 15 years old, the Historian of the student council and president of the photography club. She's also in charge of the student year book"

Looking at her he nodded, she definitely was pretty.

"The beautiful busty blonde is Lavinia Reni and is 15 years old, she's the student councils personal secretary"

"Personal Secretary, what is this?, a CEO and secretary k-drama?" Said the student with a sarcastic remark

"Don't question it bro, it's not an official position but the student president never said no or yes." Said the friend

"Tch, lucky guy"

"Yeah I know how you feel, but I should continue with my explanation. The nest person is Dulio Gesualdo. He's the person who manages all the school events that happens year round. He's also one of the nicest guys you will ever meet"

"Nicest guy, that one hell of a description"

"Yes but it's well deserved since it's the truth. If you ask, the guy will literally help with anything aslong as it isn't something bad"

"Ok well the next one please"

"Alright then, the tall one with blue hair is Cao Cao Apocalypse 14 years old and is chinese, He is the captain of the student council disciplinary committee. The guy is stupidly strong and is the student council presidents little brother"

"How strong could he be?" His description sounded a bit to excessive.

"Not long ago there was a local gang harassing student from the school. Cao Cao went out the next day and beated the living crap out of them, the next day they came back but this time they brought the whole gang with weapons and shit. Sadly for them Cao Cao beat every single one of them without breaking a sweat"

"Wait, was that what made all that commotion last month?!" He remembers that some people we talking about how the committee captain beated up a whole gang of people, but it sounded a bit to over the top so he dismissed it as just baseless rumors.

The friend only nodded as he moved on to the next person "now the next person is the silver haired guy, Vali Apocalypse the other little brother of the student council president and is 14 years old. He is also the Vice-captain of the dicipline-committee"

"So another brother?, they don't anything alike" One was blue haired and the other one silver haired?, and also the fact that they looked nothing alike made him question if they really were brothers.

"I'll get to that later, now let me introduce you to the sugar of the cream, the top dog of the whole school. The handsome blondie with long hair tied into a ponytail is Otto Apocalypse, the student council president and and the person with the top scores in the whole world. The man is also super scary and strong, he's literally good at almost anything"

The student sucked in a cold breath as he heard his ranking, he himself didn't even think that he was in any ranking.

Much less first place, how smart is the guy?

"Well I'm not surprised, I bet he comes from some rich family" said the student as it was his only guess as to why he was so smart, handsome, and well educated.

"...they are all from the same orphange by the way. Otto isn't some rich persons son as you think"

"What!, but how?. He's super handsome and smart but he's never been adopted?"

"Yeah I also thought the same thing but I can only guess that he rejected all those people to stay with the rest. Like I said, Cao Cao and Vali both took Otto's last name as they are both 'adopted' brothers of his despite being orphans"

"Dam, and to think that the top people of our school are orphans" said the student with a dry chuckle

"I don't see anything bad with it. They do their job perfectly" said the friend as they student council entered the council room, leaving behind the hall full of staring people

---

As I sat on my student president chair, I looked through the room as I get a surge of pride at how much my friend have grown

3 years have flown past by and so much has happened.

We've come a long way from were we started.

Just a group of three orphans turned into a big group of monstrous living being.

Oh yeah, let me give you a small run down of the team so far.

-x-

Yeah and that's about it, Cao Cao also had the potential to have [Sentience] Hersher core but he's already so over powered.

[Dominance] is also good for him since he can controll his enemies movement in the midst of battle, giving him the edge. He can also do large scale but only with weaker living being with weak minds and use them as cannon folder.

I also received rewards each time I turned each of them into a Hersher, let me give you a quick and brief list.

-x-

<[1st, Key of Revelation: Void Archives

Description: Can manipulate gravity and create quasi-black holes to a certain limit.

-x-

That's all the divine keys I obtained from turning them all into Hershers, I can go more deeper into detail in what the can do but I'll leave a abbreviated version.

Me and Welt specifically use [Void Archives] due to the amount of knowledge that it has that belonged to the 13 flame chasers and MOTH, I also gave welt the [Star of Eden].

I myself wield [Judgement of Shamash], [Seven Thunders Retribution], and [Fenghuang Down] since they compliment my Gun-Kata. I also have another few trump cards but I'll keep them a secret for now.

I use one of the guns in my hand and the katana on the other.

The person I gave [Oath of Juda] was none other than Dulio. He mainly uses his [Zenith Tempest] boosted by his [Wind] Hersher powers but if he needs to get close he can and will. Dulio mainly uses swords but he can use almost any weapon at least to a basic level but now he uses [Oath of Juda] to smash enemies.

The damn thing is heavy as fuck but thanks to his hersher physique he was able to swing it around like it was a pool noddle.

[Abyss Flower] is still in my storage since it doesn't compliment any of the others battle style. Himeko likes punching and controlling her fire, she can also use a sword with high skill especially a cleaver.

Lavinia fights from a distance with magic and her [Ice].

Gasper is more of a support with his time stop and is also our resident hacker. Any info we need he will find for us. Doesn't matter if he needs to hack a government to get what we need. He can also controll darkness and devour anything within its range but he doesn't use it unless he needs to fight.

Valerie fights with a bow or scythe and can create strong Honkai monsters with her [Rebirth] skill. Of course their skills are only limited to stuf Honkai monsters can do unlike my [Annihilation Maker] that can create creatures with bullshit powers that are based off my imagination.

Vali can use any weapon but he likes hand to hand more while using [Divine Dividing] while restricting his enemies with [Stars] gravity powers.

Cao Cao can also use any weapon but he prefers the spear for obvious reason, he also uses [Domination] while in battle to subtly controll his enemies movement.

He can't completely controll strong opponent but he can stop their movement for a second or two or cause them to miss a hit or make an opening for him by controlling their body parts for a temporary amount of time.

Welt likes fight from afar with his Hersher powers while also attacking with [Star of Eden] but he can also get into hand to hand while controlling metal with [Unknown Dictator]. He's basically a metal bender from avatar at this point.

As for me, I use [Fenghuang Down] to create illusions while fighting. I can use about any of the Divine Keys.

"Otto, I need you to sign some papers for me" Spoke a sweet voice behind me.

I Snaped out of my very informative dialogue and looked at Himeko.

She's really has gotten prettier, and the fact that she's become more mature makes it even better.

"Sure" I said,Himeko hovered above me as she waited for me to sign.

A bright idea suddenly came to my mind.

"Hey Himeko where do I sign" I asked.

"Oh, you sign right here" she said as she pointed her finger to a place on the paper

"Huh I don't see it?"

"Seriously Otto?, You're blind for a person who has a computer for a brain" she said with a sigh.

She got closer, right next to me to point directly on the paper.

I saw my chance as I wrapped my hands around her waist and pulled her into my lap.

"KYAAA!, O-Otto what are you doing!?" She asked as I hugged her waist.

Her flushed face made the beating I was going to recieve later worth it.

"What?, I just helped you get close so that you can show me were to sign~" I feigned ignorance.

"F-Fine"She only grumbled in embarrassment, Himeko already knew that she wouldn't be able to escape my teasing so she got comfortable on my lap. It isn't like she doesn't like it but she doesn't like being teased to much

"Hm?" I felt some stares looking at me, I took my eyes off Himeko to see the gang looking at me with annoyed looks.

"Seriously big bro?, go flirt somewhere else!" Said Cao Cao as he went back to reading his book.

The other nodded in agreement.

I only snorted at their jealousy and enjoyed my cuddle with Himeko.

Ahh~

She smells like roses.

---

After finishing council activities we soon returned home, the orphanage.

Because of our reputation as genius children there have been many people that have wanted to adopt us but we always reject the offers.

The orphanage has also gotten bigger, of course Ms. Azza has good amounts of funds to run orphanage but not enough to host to many children.

So me and Welt went off and won contest in every category that we could participate in and included cash prizes.

I even entered some culinary contest and won.

Oh yeah, Food Wars also exist in this universe. The top Prize for one of the cooking competitions was a fat ass check and a scholarship to Totsuki academy.

Of course I rejected the scholarship and gave it to second place, heh, their faces where hilarious when I rejected the scholarship to one of the worlds if not THE most elite cooking school.

They asked me why and I answered with a

'Cooking is a hoby'

I swear that the judges were about to faint.

As I opened the door first to the Orphanage, a white shadow rushed at me at huge speed until it tackled me to the floor.

"Guh!"

As I gathered myself I looked down at the white haired munchkin that was hugging me.

"Hey Theresa, miss me?" I said as I pated her soft white hair.

"Umu, I missed you dad!" Said Theresa as she looked at me with her blue eyes.

I winced at the name 'Dam she's still calling me that'

Like I said, the orphanage has taken in more children, including Theresa. The expy of Theresa apocalypse and grand daughter of Otto Apocalypse. Well, granddaughter of my other version.

I did have some favoritism towards Theresa and always showered her with love and care, mostly due to how cute she was. But one day she ended calling me dad and continued to call me that despite me telling her to call me big brother instead.

I could only sigh in defeat as I didn't have the heart to tell her no.

I got up from the floor and picked up Theresa into my arms. She's super small for a 10 year old.

"Hey Theresa where's the other?"

"Sister Bronya and Seelie are playing outside"

"Is that so?, the why aren't you playing with them?"

"Because I felt that you were coming back" she answered innocently.

I raised an eyebrow at her statement

"Really, how?"

"I felt that blue thing inside you coming near the house"

Is that so?

Looks like we have another mage in the house besides Lavinia.

And one with monstrous mana sense at that.

It's hard to sense someone's mana from a long distance for most, and Theresa seems to be able to do exactly that without training.

"Alright sweetie thanks for telling me, but you have to keep it a secret for now alright?" I asked.

"Yes I'll keep it a secret!" She said with a smile.

Dam she's to cute!

I couldnt help but hug her tightly while rubbing my face on her soft cheeks.

*cough*

Damit whose interrupting my cuteness recharge!.

"Ms.Azza?" I said as I looked at the woman who interrupted my cutleing with my daughter. I've already accepted my fate as a teenage father.

"Otto put the poor girl down, you'll choke her to death" sha said with a light chuckle.

"Over my dead body!" I sneered as I held Theresa close.

Ms.Azza shook her head in exasperation at my antics.

"Anyways do you need me for something?" She doesn't usually wait for us to come home, we usually see her during dinner time or when we look out for her in her office.

"Yes Otto, your highschool contacted me today and wanted to give me and you and offer"

"What offer?"

"Student exchange program...to Japan"

"I'll take it!"

"...Otto, have you really thought about it?"

"Well actually, give me the details first"

I realized that I might have jumped the gun to soon. I've only been to Japan once for 'buisness' and immediately came back home to Germany so I was excited when I heard that I could live there for a year.

Ms.Azza explained that the Japanese school board has been having a bunch of student changes with multiple countries to show off their 'talent'.

And it so happens that one of the schools that they want to do an exchange with for a single year with my Highschool. The principal seems to have chosen me for the exchange.

Actually scratch that, it's the whole gang.

The principal wants to show off his student council in Japan.

"Alright I'm down for it but I'll ask the others first" I responded, Ms.Azza only gave me a nod.

I left with Theresa still in my arms as I went and asked my friend.
