Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

[Ashura POV]

To whatever being reincarnated me, it's on sight now. Don't care if your a hot Goddess or not you WILL be bitch slapped. Out of all the times they could have reincarnated me, it had to be when I was l sleeping. And what's worse is that they reincarnated me as a baby still in the womb no less. "sighs" Can't lie though being awake while I'm still in the womb will make it more legit that it is me and I didn't replace someone else's kid. It's still fucked up though, couldn't even wake me up so we could talk. Either way there's no use complaining over spilled milk, I'm just gonna take a nap. Hopefully by the time I wake up it'll be me screaming on my way out of this, surprisingly, comfortable place. 

---One month later---

I'm still here. Just great, not even my eldritch level sleep skills that I developed in the Void to pass the time are working. And just recently I found out that my sleep time is getting shorter and shorter. At this rate I won't even be able to sleep at all, which means I'm just going to have to find some other way to pass the time. 

Since I had nothing better to do I started using my supernatural senses to feel around. And the first thing I found was an insane amount of energy. So whoever my new mother is, she is definitely not a normal person in this new world. The amount of energy she had was like an ocean. But as I was "looking" at my mothers energy my SM decided that it would start absorbing that energy. My Sacrificial magic was absorbing so much of my mothers energy that I could literally feel her weakening. It got so bad that I think she fainted, not sure how I knew that though. It wasn't long before I started to receive information on what my magic was absorbing. The energy that was being absorbed was called Demonic mana. That already told me that I was a demon now, yay. I hope to God I'm not a demon like the ones in Doom. I would very much like to sleep at night knowing that there isn't an angry guy that could at any moment RIP AND TEAR me apart for just existing. Because if that is the case I'm joining Cthulhu's side so quick it won't even be funny. 

Anyway back to my magic nearly killing my mom, I immediately shut it down. And it was lucky I switched it off in time as my mom was close to being on deaths door step. Holy hell could my magic eat. Now that I think about it, I wonder how powerful my soul is. Cause with the amount that I saw my SM absorb, there might be a chance that I have an overpowered soul. Not like it matters since I'm not in Bleach. Mm. What the?

Ok my SM just decided to use the mana it absorbed from my mother to make something. What it made was kind of insane going by the information that's appearing in my head. My SM decided to create an ability that allowed me to manifest the power of my soul. What does that mean? It means that I can get a boost in power which adds to the power I have in my physical body. Man, I really hope my soul is powerful, otherwise this ability is useless. I wonder if I can use reiatsu since it represents how powerful ones soul is. Well since I got nothing better to do might as well see what's going on under the hood, so to speak, of this ability.

[No POV]

While Ashura was busy experimenting with what he could do with his soul, Ashura's new mother could be seen sitting in a bed reading a book. This women's beauty would put even the most beautiful super model to shame. She has dark silver hair that went down to her lower back. She has silver colored eyes and a figure that would cause men to stare if she went out in public. If Ashura, or rather when, saw her he would immediately recognize her as Grayfia Lucifuge. The second most powerful women and the Queen of the underworld of Highschool dxd.

When Grayfia and her husband found out that she was pregnant, they were ecstatic. They had been trying for a child for a few years and thought that it would take a while before she could get pregnant, one of the downsides of being a devil is their-low fertility rates. But by some miracle Grayfia fell pregnant. Sirzechs, her husband, immediately informed his family and they celebrated. For the first few months Grayfia still performed her maid duties but was always reminded by Sirzechs not to push herself. She reassured him that she would be careful and time went on. It wasn't until her pregnancy started to visibly show that Venelana, her mother in law, suggested that she rest at the Gremory manor. Grayfia and Sirzechs had no problems with this and so Grayfia moved into the Gremory manor. 

6 months later was when things started to get really stressful as on the 6th month of Grayfia's pregnancy she started to get weaker by the day. It got so bad that they had to get help from Ajuka, The Satan Beelzebub, to find out what was happening. According to Ajuka the cause of the problem was the baby. Apparently the baby was absorbing incredibly large amounts of Grayfia's mana. The amount was comparable to that of a high-class devils reserves of mana. What was worse was that the amount being absorbed was increasing day by day and if this continued then Grayfia and the baby would die. Ajuka immediately started looking for ways to save both Grayfia and the baby and tried introducing a new source of mana for the baby to absorb but each source was drained almost instantly. This confused Ajuka as the amount it was absorbing from the new sources was way larger than what it was absorbing from Grayfia. 

Time slowly went by and Grayfia got weaker and weaker. It got to the point where she could barley move. And just when all things seemed lost the baby suddenly stopped absorbing Grayfia's mana. At first they got worried but after a quick check up they found the baby was fine. Grayfia started gaining her strength back and within a month she was back to normal. This incident had everyone wondering how strong the baby was going to be. After all, even though it was not intentional, the child nearly killed a Satan-class being by absorbing increasingly large amounts of their mana and Satan-class beings were on the same level of power as a god, and gods were basically living mana batteries so the fact that an unborn child could absorb so much mana was telling.

The situation also confirmed that the child was definitely a Super-class devil, aka low God-king class being. But no one got their hopes up until the baby was born and they could confirm whether or not the child was a Super-class devil.

[Ashura POV]

It's the 2nd month of my stay in this place. Close to end of the second month my body decided that I didn't need to sleep anymore, not like it bothered me that much as I knew it was going to happen anyway. Anyway update on the ability my magic made. Nada, I can't do anything while I'm stuck here so I couldn't really experiment with it but I did find out something very interesting. According to the information that my SM provided, this ability also acted as an enhanced rebalancing mechanism. The reason I say that is because right now my soul and body aren't exactly on equal footing. Now normally even without this ability my body would naturally over time grow to balance itself with my soul, meaning that eventually my body would have reached the same power level my soul was on. But that would take way to damn long so this ability enhanced that process and made it act faster, how this will affect my body, I have no idea, so we'll just have to wait and see once I'm born. With regards to my souls power level let's just say my soul is powerful, like SERIOUSLY powerful. Whoever my parents are they have damn good genes because I'm pretty sure that if I were the child of a weaker couple I would definitely be born with problems.

When I get out of here I want to test and see what this ability is really capable of. Man I'm really bored right now, I've got nothing better to do than than just count the time and wait. 

Mm there is another thing that I can do that I haven't done yet. Ok lets check out what's under the hood of this body. And so I started to look inward in order to study my new body. At first I didn't notice anything interesting until I came across my mana. It was not as vast as my mothers but it wasn't small either. By comparison it would be equivalent to a very large pond, a pond that was steadily growing. Shout out to my soul. Anyway I started examining my mana, trying to get a feel for it. As I was feeling around I came across 2 sensations. One was cold as ice and the was warm like a flame but it had a very destructive feel to it. I kept feeling around and getting a feel for my mana while also circulating it throughout my body to practice a bit of control.

I kept doing this since I had nothing better to do. Time passed and my control over my mana was ok, but I'll definitely do better once I was out of here. All of a sudden my instincts went into overdrive. I don't know what the reason for this was but I immediately started to flood my mothers body with my mana but when I noticed that my instincts went even more haywire, if that was possible, I drew on my soul ability and had SM use some of the stockpiled energy it had absorbed from the Void, to strengthen and heal my mother. 

I have no idea what was going on but I knew for a fact that both my mother and me were in serious danger.

[A few moments ago]

Currently Grayfia was in a hospital room with doctors moving around rapidly. What was supposed to be a regular check up was now an emergency event where the doctors were trying to save Grayfia and her unborn child from dying. For some reason, that no one yet knows, Grayfia's heart rate started to slow down. At first the doctors took it as an effect of her sleeping until her heart rate started to drop dangerously low. The Doctors tried to figure out what was happening but they couldn't find anything wrong and when they thought they would lose Grayfia and have to perform an emergency C-section, a tremendous pressure sudden appeared and pressed down on every living thing within and around the hospital. Many doctors and patients immediately fainted while a few were struggling to remain conscious while laying flat on the ground due to the pressure.

Within Grayfia's hospital room all the doctors were unconscious. Grayfia herself woke up with a gasp and looked around trying to figure out what was happening. She felt an unknown pressure that she felt originated from where her child resided, not only that but she felt stronger, far stronger than she had ever felt before. Snapping out of her trance Grayfia looked at her belly and started softly rubbing it while softly humming a lullaby. It was something she started doing after she found out she was pregnant and would always do it whenever she was alone. 

As she continued to softly hum she felt the pressure over the hospital slowly recede. When the pressure fully dissipated a magic circle that Grayfia recognized appeared in her hospital room. Sirzechs appeared looking ready to tear apart hell itself. He looked around the hospital room and immediately locked eyes with his wife. He rushed over but before he could go into a panic trying to find out what was wrong, Grayfia placed a gentle hand on Sirzechs cheek. This noticeably calmed him a little. When he was calm enough Grayfia explained everything that happened up until the point where she went unconscious and woke up. Sirzechs immediately summoned 2 of his peerage members and had them sweep the hospital. Sirzechs just sat with his wife with a hand on her pregnant belly.

When everything calmed down and investigations were underway, Sirzechs had Ajuka check on Grayfia, even though she insisted that she was fine but Sirzechs was hearing none of it. When Ajuka finished checking Grayfia he came across something that surprised him so much it looked like his brain was rebooting. Seeing this Sirzechs asked if anything was wrong but Ajuka assured him nothing was wrong. Ajuka looked at Sirzechs seriously.

Ajuka: Sirzechs, Grayfia is a Super-classed devil now.
