The next day after everyone woke up, Sephiroth summoned Tiamat to him and they all sat in the living room after breakfast. Sephiroth offered a place in his peerage to Tiamat like he did the other girls and she agreed seeing as how he was her master plus getting stronger never hurt in her opinion. She ended up taking the colonial piece for herself giving her a major increase to both physical and magical defense attributes and adding that to her already powerful defense of being a king dragon. There were only a select few people in this world that could hurt her now.

"Now with that out of the way, I'm going to share an important secret that I've kept from all of you. I'm not from this world originally." All the girls were shocked but only Tiamat had a feeling that it made sense because someone so powerful just doesn't come out of nowhere like he did.

"Now don't say anything let me finish before you speak…." Sephiroth then told them everything about where he came from, what he tried to do there and how he came to be here. The girls were shocked that there was a god so powerful like Lilith that could just reincarnate someone like that and give him a sacred gear like it was nothing.

"Wow that is a lot to take in, not that I'm not thankful for hearing everything about you dearest. But why tell us that now?" Yasaka asked, to which all the other girls nodded their heads wondering the same thing.

"Simple that sacred gear that I was given gives me the ability to jump to other worlds and it is ready finally after so long. I am about to go to another world and I don't know when I'll come back here so instead of leaving you wondering if I'll ever come back for you guys. I thought I'd offer to take you with me so that we can travel together and experience new worlds, but if you don't want to come I'd understand so what do you say?" The girls were quiet for a couple minutes trying to process what they were just told and each with different thoughts on the matter.

"I don't know about the others but you are my master so wherever you go I'll follow you plus this world has bored me for a while so something like this I can't pass up so count me in." Tiamat said clearly excited at the idea of seeing new things.

Looking at her daughter and seeing her nod her head "Me and Kunou will gladly follow you dearest without you here we wouldn't know what we would do and life would feel empty. As long as you promise to protect us from whatever danger that we face, I don't mind traveling to other worlds with you. I haven't had a proper vacation in a long time and it's not like we will be gone forever right? We will come back eventually right?" Sephiroth nodded his head showing that they will eventually come back and time doesn't really matter to individuals like them seeing as their life span is thousands or years.

"I already promised you that I would follow you master so wherever you go I will follow you." Akeno said with a flirty tone in her voice.

Sephiroth couldn't help but show a smile to all the girls making them all blush seeing it. He was happy that they all agreed to come with him because he couldn't picture his life without them now. He has come to appreciate them all. Then Sephiroth sensed a group of people headed toward them and if what he was feeling was accurate they were fairly powerful.

"Yasaka, were you expecting a group of people to be visiting you today?"

"Um no, I don't have anything scheduled for today why do you ask dearest?"

"Interesting" as soon as he got done saying that the front door of the house was blown off flying into the house

"Knock knock" a voice said through the smoke as you could hear the sound of several footsteps coming toward them.

"I hope you don't mind us stopping by but this really couldn't wait and I really needed Yasaka-sama for something." a handsome young man with short black hair and blue eyes. He is wearing a combination of a Japanese school uniform and an ancient Chinese attire, carrying a giant spear behind him.

But he wasn't alone from what Sephiroth and the group saw, Sephiroth recognized some of them, he fought the two of those members in a kendo tournament a while back.

"Onii-chan don't those two look familiar from that tournament…..hmmmm what were their names again."

"Ah that's right it was Jeanne and Siegfried I believe" yelled Kunou

"Your right Kunou but the other three I don't know so if you don't mind telling me who you are?" Sephiroth said while he crossed his arms in front of himself.

The group looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders, not seeing the point of hiding their identities at all from Sephiroth and his group.

A bespectacled young man with blond hair with a strand of hair across his face, who is dressed in a business suit came forward "I am Arthur Pendragon and this is my little sister Le Fay Pendragon" he said while he pointed at the young girl who was wearing a sorceress-like dress with a huge blue hat with a black bow and yellow stars and matching cape with pink flowers and a white interior.

"Hello Sephiroth-sama, it is a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e to finally meet you." she said while waving at him.

A two-meters tall man with a well-built body and has shoulder-length gray hair. Wearing a Japanese school uniform , covered by what could possibly be Greek-inspired armor stepped forward next. "I'm Heracles" is all he said but you could feel the arrogance in his voice when he talked.

"I guess I'm last, the name is Cao Cao and I'm the leader of this little group we call the hero faction made of only humans to fight all supernatural forces." he said, giving a mock bow to Sephiroth and his group.

"Do what I owe the p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e of your sudden visit then Cao Cao-san." Yasaka said with a cold voice.

"Ah you see we need you to summon great red so that we can kill him, that being said please come along quietly we wouldn't want to fight you just a little bit of your time is all." Cao Cao said with a smile on his face.

"I'd like to see you try and get my mom to come with you especially with Onii-chan here, he will protect her from you guys you big bullies." Kunou said while sticking her tongue out at them making all of the heroes twitch at her actions.

"What Kunou said is right if you want Yasaka you're going to have to go through me and challenging me spells certain doom for you and your little group." Sephiroth said while he released a bit of his magical power for the heroes to fill.

Once they felt the amount of magical power that Sephiroth was letting out it really made some of the group members hesitate and break out into a cold sweat on their backs. The amount that he was releasing was so much they didn't even know if all of them together would be able to beat him and that in there is the problem because he isn't alone right now meaning that they are at a disadvantage now.

'Damn, I thought that at most only Yasaka and her daughter would be here and with us six it should have been easy to take her on and force her to help us. But there are three others and I don't recognize two of them but if they are friends with Yasaka they can't be weak and then there's this Sephiroth guy he is the biggest threat right now. What to do, what to do.' thought Cao Cao trying to figure out what he should do next.

"You may be strong Sephiroth but you won't be able to protect those behind you from our whole team if we were to attack." Cao Cao said trying to restore the confidence of the group, but the other five looked at him like he was crazy right now.

'Are you trying to get us all killed right now idiot.' they all thought

'This guy is really an idiot or something, you don't randomly challenge people you know nothing about.' thought the girls after hearing what Cao Cao said.

"Hmph while I alone would be enough to take you six on, I have a better idea." turning to the girls beside him.

"Why don't we use those six to test the limits of your new power girls?" Sephiroth offered to them to which the girls nodded not seeing a problem with it, they knew that if they were in any real danger then Sephiroth would come to the rescue for them.

"I'll handle Cao Cao seeing as he seems the most dangerous it seems, Akeno why not take that Heracles guy on, Kunou your against the little magician girl Le Fay, Yasaka you can have Jeanne, and Tiamat take care of Arthur and Siegfried."

"Now if we are going to fight we shouldn't do it here. I very much like this house so if you would follow me." Sephiroth said while he created a teleportation circle and went through it with the girls following behind him.

"Um Cao Cao do you think this is a good idea to follow that guy's pace?" Siegfried asked, clearly hesitant, to follow them through that teleportation circle.

"I feel that I must agree with Siegfried, Cao Cao. We don't know anything about their abilities and if what Sephiroth said is to be true they recently got a power up of some sort making them even stronger than they were before and we didn't even know who two of them even were. There are far too many unknown factors here at play." Arthur

"My brother is right, I sensed that the weakest of them is that little girl and she was just as strong as us, I don't know about this Cao Cao." Le Fay said agreeing with her brother on how dangerous this is.

"Hmph Weaklings we can take them no problem" Heracles said clearly believing that they are strong enough to take them all on.

"Enough we are going, I'll take care of Sephiroth quickly then go to help you guys out. In the end we will show them the power of the human race and how superior we are compared to them all." Cao Cao said, signaling the end of the conversation and stepping through the teleportation circle that Sephiroth laid down for them to follow.

****

Sephiroth brought them to a deserted island that he discovered one day exploring, big enough for all of them to fight and without the danger of attracting others attention and killing innocent bystanders.

"I'm glad that you follow us, I really do need a training partner for the girls over here." Sephiroth said when he noticed that all six of them followed him and his group here.

"Please you did us a favor now you can't call for help when we beat you guys." Cao Cao said full of confidence that he will win his fight.

Turning around to face the girls "Spread out so not to get in each other's way and don't worry I will be watching your fights and step in if I feel that it is needed." he said quietly to the girls making them all feel happy and warm that he would go that far for them.

"Don't worry dearest, I'll settle it quickly and help the others if need be." Yasaka said while giving Sephiroth a passionate kiss. Making the other girls glare at her for a moment at her actions.

"Ufufuf don't worry love I won't have a problem at all with my fight." Akeno said while she also gave a passionate kiss to Sephiroth, smirking at the looks she was getting from the others.

"Don't worry master, these humans stand no chance against me." Tiamat did something really bold for herself and gave a peck on Sephiroth's cheek then stepped back with a clear blush on her face.

Giving Sephiroth a strong hug on his waist "Don't worry Onii-chan I'm strong now thanks to you plus I can kinda fly so there is that." Kunou said, giving him a big smile to reassure him that she will be fine.

Sephiroth just nodded his head to this and gestured for them to go to which they did then he turned around to face the six to see what they would do. They all looked at each other and followed the opponent that Sephiroth picked for them thus leaving Cao Cao and Sephiroth alone in the clearing that they were in.

Banishing his spear "You're going to regret taking me on by yourself."

"Show me your skills so that I can show you despair" Sephiroth said while he summoned his masamune sword Zetsubo and got into his usual stance.

Cao Cao dashed forward with a lunge and quickly got within range to attack Sephiroth and stabbed at him toward the c.h.e.s.t. Sephiroth nonchalantly raised his sword and parried the first stab but Cao Cao didn't stop there and proceeded to keep attacking.

Cao Cao kept attempting to stab Sephiroth from all different angles and areas on his body looking for a weak point in his stance but from his viewpoint he couldn't find one. Sephiroth was easily handling his attacks; he was either blocking them completely without moving an inch or he would just simply redirect it away from himself.

Jumping back from Sephiroth to create some space "*Huff* You're better than I thought but you will still lose in the end." Sephiroth only raised his eyebrow to this curious where this guy got his confidence from because from his viewpoint he didn't stand even a chance in hurting him.

"Time to take this fight seriously now [Polar Night Longinus Chakravartin]" Cao Cao yelled and then all of a sudden 7 light orbs were floating around him that looked exactly the same and if you looked closely they were connected in a ring.

"Interesting, but even that won't be enough to beat me." Sephiroth then got into a quick draw stance. "Disappear, [Oblivion]" Sephiroth dashed forward and performed a single slice which hit multiple times if it connected and appeared on the other side of Cao Cao.

Seeing the attack and knowing that blocking it won't be possible "Mala Ratana" Cao Cao yelled when one of his orbs fused with his spear and when the attack made contact with it, it redirected the attack towards another target and in this case that was a tree in the distance.

Seeing what just happened "Interesting ability that you have there but I wonder how long can you keep it up." Sephiroth then went on the attack.

He was slowly pushing Cao Cao back and even with the Mala Ratana orb still fused with the spear and redirecting attacks away from himself, he was still having trouble. Sephiroth's own experience and skills in close combat were far above Cao Cao's even though he is known in the world as a prodigy when it comes to fighting he is nothing compared to Sephiroth.

Pushing Sephiroth back he replaced the orb fused with his spear and put Atsusa Ratana it gave him the ability to teleport a person including himself to a place of his choice. He used it to teleport several meters away to give him a chance to breathe.

'Damn this is harder than I thought, usually I have the upper hand when it comes to close combat. This isn't how it is supposed to go.' Cao Cao thought while he quickly switched with another orb, the Chatsuka Ratana which gives him the ability to destroy all weapons hoping that with it he can destroy the sword that Sephiroth is using. Unaware that no matter what he does he will never be able to destroy that sword seeing as it was made by Lilith an extremely powerful god.

'I see, every orb seems to give him a different ability when it fuses with the spear and since they all look the same it is hard to tell which ability he is getting when it happens. Truly interesting, I wonder what the other abilities are.' Sephiroth thought while he got back into his stance waiting for Cao Cao to attack him this time.

Seeing that Sephiroth wasn't going on the attack this time, Cao Cao dashed forward and using his full power thrusted at Sephiroth but instead of aiming for his body he was aiming for his weapon instead fully intent on destroying it with his spear.

Seeing that he wasn't aiming for him but his weapon instead, Sephiroth decided to play along and see what happens fully confident in the weapon that Lilith gifted him. Raising his sword parallel to his body and blocked the attack, you could see the shock on Cao Cao's face when his attack didn't work the way he wanted it too.

"How is this possible, your weapon should be nothing but metal fragments right now so how is it fine TELL ME." Cao Cao yelled clearly, getting frustrated that nothing is working on Sephiroth.

"You're too weak that is why" was all that Sephiroth said then pushed Cao Cao back and swiped at him while he was in mid air and nicked his shoulder a bit.

Looking at his shoulder that was cut slightly he couldn't help but frown a little bit, trying another orb Cao Cao fused his Kahabatei Ratana this time where it creates warrior-like existences that attack whatever the user tells them too.

Seeing the dozen or so warriors appear out of nowhere, Sephiroth just gave Cao Cao a black expression and when Cao Cao gestured for them to attack him. Sephiroth simply channeled some magic power into his sword and with a simple swipe of his sword and sent a powerful sword beam that cut right through all the charging warriors and continued to Cao Cao's position in the back.

Seeing the sword beam coming at him he quickly put Atsusa Ratana back in his spear and teleported himself above Sephiroth and drove down toward him from the air. Sephiroth sidestepped the attack and attacked him but before he hit him he teleported again but this time behind him trying to attack him again.

Sephiroth doing a quick turn on the pivot of his foot met the attack and blocked it and then kicked Cao Cao in the gut sending him back and sent another sword beam at him while he was in mid air for the moment.

Cao Cao teleported himself again at a distance again. 'Damn it I'm not getting anywhere at this rate he doesn't seem to have any weakness at all and I'm starting to get tired from using all of my abilities so quickly like this.'

Sephiroth created several fireballs and sent them at Cao Cao in the distance to which he just teleported again and every time that he would appear somewhere Sephiroth would either send fireballs or icicles at him at a high speed causing him to build fatigue slowly.

Teleporting in front of him to stab him in the heart, Sephiroth uses his hand to push the spear head to the side effectively dodging it and getting inside Cao Cao's guard. Sephiroth used his sword to attack Cao Cao's side and was able to leave a deep cut on his side before it was stopped by the spear handle in Cao Cao's hand.

Teleporting away again, Cao Cao couldn't help but hold his side due to the cut he just got. Seeing that he was going to lose at this rate he decided to use his finisher and hoped that it would be enough to at least hurt Sephiroth.

Balinayaka Ratana orb was fused with his spear and it has a strong attack with high destructive powers. The strongest ability of the seven meant to end a fight. Yelling and charging forward his whole spear end glowed a faint bluish white color showing just how much power was currently stored inside of it.

'While I could easily dodge this attack to end the fight, I do what to see what would happen if I tried to block it.' Sephiroth then channeled a decent amount of magical power into his sword making it have it's own glow of blue on it and he dashed forward as well to meet Cao Cao.

Once they were in range of each other Sephiroth being the quicker of the two swung his sword down but didn't aim for Cao Cao no he aimed for the spear handle of the Cao Cao's spear. Cao Cao wasn't fast enough to move his spear out of the way and due to the momentum that he built as well made it even harder for him to move the spear out of the way of the attack thus all he could do was watch as Sephiroth's sword made contact with the spear handle.

Once it did it left a deep cut on the spear handle itself and pushed the attack that Cao Cao aimed at Sephiroth right into the ground. But it didn't end there once the spear made contact with the ground all of the energy in the spear tip came forth and a massive explosion occurred that covered both of them and several meters around themselves.

Once the dust settled from the explosion, you could see that Cao Cao had a pale face and his whole outfit had burn marks on it and the skin that was exposed for him was covered in burn marks here and there but Sephiroth came out of the attack with so much as a scratch of any kind.

"Just what are you?" Cao Cao said while he looked at his prized spear the ultimate Longinus, the True Longinus and the fact that it was missing it's spear tip and it was on the ground in front of him. The fact that Sephiroth could break his sacred gear and dubbed the strongest one as well spoke to the amount of strength that he had.

"I am your despair" he said while he dashed forward and thrusted his sword into Cao Cao's heart lifting him off the ground as he was stuck on his sword. This is the scene that his group and the survivors of those fights saw.

Sephiroth watched the light from his eyes dim and when they were completely gone was when he tossed his body off his sword into the crater that they were standing in. He then looked around and noticed that everyone else was done with their fight's as well but he noticed that the hero faction was down some members. Before they had six now they only had three left Jeanne, Arthur, and Le Fay were the only ones that he saw and they looked like they were on the verge of passing out.

"I guess this is the end of the hero faction then" Arthur said as he leaned on his sister for support.

"Indeed it is brother, it looks like Cao Cao thought too highly of himself." Le Fay said back.

"Tsk great we are all going to die now." Jeanne said with gritted teeth thinking that now their leader is dead they will soon follow.

Hearing what they said Sephiroth calmly walked toward the trio "Worry not I won't kill you guys you served your purpose to me. I only killed your leader because I didn't want to deal with him constantly attacking my friends and loved one's." The trio all breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this knowing that if Sephiroth wanted them dead there was nothing that they could do to stop him let alone the others nearby in the current state that they are in right now.

"We thank you" Arthur said, giving a slight bow as best he could given the condition that he is in right now.

"So what will you do now" Yasaka asked now that they are essentially free agents.

"We will think about it later, for now we would like to rest back home. So if it is possible could you teleport us back then we will be on our way." Arthur said to Sephiroth's group.

"I see no problem with that but first…." Sephiroth then cast heal on all three making them good as new except their clothes.

"Wow what kind of magic was that?" Le Fay asked with stars in her eyes at seeing new magic she has never seen before. While the other two were thankfully for what he had done for them and it showed on their face.

Sephiroth didn't bother to answer Le Fay and created a teleportation circle back home. Once there the trio quickly said their thanks and goodbye and left off to who knows where.

"I wonder what they will do now." Kunou asked but to know one in particular.

"I don't know but I hope they stay out of trouble." Yasaka said to which the other all nodded to her statement.

"Well that was fun and all but I don't know what you guys but I need a nice soak in the hot springs, care to join me Yasaka, Akeno, Kunou?" Tiamat said to which the girls all agreed to join her since they all felt dirty from the fights they just had.

"Partner your loved ones are quite interesting" Ddraig said chuckling at Tiamat's actions.

"I know but I wouldn't have it any other way, partner." Sephiroth said back with a faint smile on his face as he watched the girls all make their way toward the hot springs.
