Chapter 1084 New Horizon
Although they fully deserve to become Demon Kings, the only reason why Ajuka pushed for this is so that he and Sirzechs could take a step back into the shadows and use the popularity of these kids to their advantage. It\'s not something really bad and it\'s actually something good for the people involved, however, that doesn\'t change the fact that he doesn\'t like it, \'They\'re still just kids that don\'t know their left from their right in the political world. This would have been fine 30-50 years later.\'
While Azazel could probably convince Sirzechs, he knew that his words wouldn\'t win against Ajuka.
So as a last-ditch effort of hoping for a miracle, Azazel asked Kisuke to connect him to the beings eyeing them from the outside. After all, there\'s really no else he could ask that could compete with Ajuka and Kisuke right now.
Kisuke grinned at him and asked, [Forget about the absurdity of your request, why do you think I\'d grant that if I can? Wouldn\'t it be better if you ask Beelzebub for that?]
[I\'m too close to Ajuka and I wanted to get away from him for a bit to do my own thing.]
[Ho? So you want to get close to me instead?]
[Your forces, compared to what Ajuka and Shiva can muster, are a lot smaller even if you could influence the large majority of the grassroots organization. You already know that no matter how fast you build up your organization\'s foundation, you\'ll have no way of catching up to those who have been sitting in their seat of power for countless years. Not to mention, they also have their hidden aces like you do.]
Kisuke kept quiet and waited for his next words.
[Since time is not on your side, you\'d want to stir the pot more. The more chaos there is, the more your smaller force could thrive while those who are bigger would try to keep things calm for their advantage. I could stir that pot for you.]
After that short explanation, Azazel sighed, \'Why am I explaining something so obvious to him? And that\'ll only come to pass if he could indeed introduce me to someone.\'
Azazel was about to give up his wishful thinking when Kisuke\'s grin suddenly grew wider, [Wait for Yoruichi\'s contact.]
"...Huh?" Azazel muttered out loud as his head froze for a moment. It was only when Kisuke exited the barrier that he was able to get hold of himself and tried to catch up to him to clarify what he\'d just heard. But the moment he got out, Kisuke was already nowhere to be found.
Kisuke left Ajuka\'s territory in a good mood and thought, \'Since you want to be pulled from that guy, We\'ll pull you out~ But don\'t expect us to let go~.\'

Ten more days later, Kisuke, Claire, Tanis, Kunou, and Serafall were already done with their preparations and goodbyes. Of course, there are those who are coming with them without Kisuke\'s approval. Namely, the technically homeless Dragons, Ophis, Lilith, and Flanna.
"Is it really going to be fine?" Serafall asked Kisuke.
"They are very convinced that it\'ll be better for everyone if they are not around. I don\'t know how they came up with that conclusion but who can really understand them? If this is what they want, I\'ll just let them be.", answered Kisuke while thinking, \'And to be perfectly honest, with their help, it\'ll be a lot easier to meet certain people.\'
Right now, they were deep within the Mars Base and Kisuke asked everyone who was not going with him to stay away from it due to the complication of the transfer procedure that he\'s going to initiate. While he already tested the procedure more than a hundred thousand times, he wanted to eliminate anything that could affect any of the variables that could dangerously change its course.
"Alright, everyone. Gather up." Kisuke grabbed everyone\'s attention, "While we can\'t say our goodbyes the moment we transfer and any long-range communication right now might disrupt our course, we have to go. But before that, let me ask this again. Are you certain you want to come with me? Although I\'ve already asked each one of you in your own personal time, I\'m asking again for one last time. It\'ll be a long and dangerous journey and there\'s always a chance that we might not return, so think about it carefully, especially you three. You\'re still young and the majority of your years might be spent in an unknown place. I\'ll give you all ten minutes."
Even though he made it sound very risky, Kisuke had already prepared multiple things and was still making more for these girls to return no matter what even if he couldn\'t join them. Along with their safety, their return is at the top of his priority list, \'I should also prepare something that will forcefully return them in case of my death.\'
But not even a second later, Claire raised her voice, "Why are you trying to whittle down our resolve? We already understood all of this and our parents even fully and carefully explained what we were about to do. They already tried to scare us enough so yours won\'t work anymore."
"That\'s right, that\'s right! Stop being a bully!" Tanis also yelled.
Meanwhile, Kunou just strongly nodded.
"Haahhh... Fine. Let\'s go while your spirits are raised." Kisuke activated the transfer sequence that was embedded in the room itself, "Ophis, Lilith, Flanna, take care of the shield around us."
With uncharacteristically serious expressions, the three of them separated and went into three corners before enveloping everyone with the strongest barrier they could put up now.
"Alright, hold on tight!"
The next instant, a small black hole appeared on top of them and as if being squeezed, they were absorbed into the tiny hole. A second later, the light within the room disappeared along with its inhabitants, returning to what it was a few seconds ago as if no one was in there in the first place.
.

Using the trace that Byakko had left when she transferred him, Benihime, and Yoruichi for the first time, Kisuke navigated the endless void that they entered with great difficulty, \'Damn it... This is much harsher than I thought.\'
The three girls had already lost consciousness and Serafall was helping Ophis, Lilith, and Flanna to keep the barrier up.
However, everything was still within the margins of error as Kisuke carefully followed the leftover traces, [Benihime, are you leaving behind your string?]
[You must be very busy not to notice. I\'ve been doing everything I can and Tiamat is helping out by strengthening my strings while also leaving behind her own traces.]
Kisuke didn\'t know when but Benihime had already started calling Tiamat by her name. He thought that it\'d take a very long time before the two of them get along so he\'s glad that it happened a lot earlier.
But the quietly working Tiamat suddenly spoke up, [Master... Accept the invitation.]
[Huh? An invitation?] Kisuke confusedly asked. He has been navigating but he can\'t see nor could he feel anything aside from the endless darkness.
[Stop following the traces that the tiger left and accept the invitation. They are coming from the same place.]
Kisuke was very nervous hearing that because the moment he lets go of the traces, he might not be able to find them again. However, he\'s already had this feeling that they might not reach their destination just by following since it kept diminishing the further they went.
[Fine... But make sure we can return immediately the moment I let go of it.]
Kisuke released his focus and widened his senses to look for this \'invitation\' that Tiamat was talking about.
Thankfully, it only took a few seconds for him to find this \'invitation\' because it was a familiar Spiritual Pressure, \'...the Spirit King? How?\'
He couldn\'t feel anything from it aside from the guiding force so after a few moments of hesitation, he grabbed it. Without him doing anything, they were able to break through the \'bubble\' that separated the worlds and instantly arrived in a white space.
[I didn\'t think it would be possible, but you have indeed returned.]
A voice they didn\'t know resounded inside everyone\'s heads.
===============
AN: To another world we go!
But as you can see, I\'m leaving a large blank on the DxD side through a timeskip. Kisuke left a lot of things for Yoruichi and the other girls to do but I\'m not going to reveal that for now. Let\'s just say he left while feeling satisfied.
