After finishing his breakfast, Alexander leaned back, looking out the window.
On the Inside (The "Voice"):
[Internal Thought: I could stare into Grayfia's eyes all day. They're like cool silver pools. Honestly, how did I get so lucky with the maids in this life?]
Grayfia, who was just closing the door, turned a shade of crimson that rivaled the Gremory hair. Her heart hammered against her ribs. Sylpha pouted, her ears turning red. 'Master! What about my eyes?!' she screamed internally. Meanwhile, in the Underworld, Serafall and Venelana were huffing in jealousy.
The System Reboot and the Reunion
Suddenly, a chime echoed in Alex's soul.
[System Notice: Soul Synchronization Complete. Rebooting...]
[Welcome, Host. Beginner Package Available.]
Alex opened the rewards, and his heart nearly stopped.
[Items: Bloodline Boost Ticket, Ryujin Jakka, Manas: Ciel]
[Internal Thought: Ciel?! You're here? System, you beautiful piece of code! You saved my partner!]
Within moments, a shimmering light appeared. Ciel, the core of his past life's wisdom and his most loyal lover, materialized. She didn't wait—she threw herself into his arms, sobbing silently. "I'm sorry, Reinhardt... I used everything I had to bring you here. I won't let you go again."
Alex hugged her tightly. "Rest for now, Ciel. We have a lot to do." As she vanished back into his soul to recover, Alex used the Bloodline Boost Ticket.
[Alert: Bloodline Evolving: Primordial Dragon → Apex Dragon God]
The Shockwave of Power
The moment the evolution finished, a silent pressure exploded from the Runcandel estate.
On the Inside:
[Internal Thought: Whoa. Ultimate Class Peak? I'm already stronger than Serafall Leviathan. Sorry, Serafall, but if we ever fought, I wouldn't even need a sword. I'd just show you a folder of Sona in a maid outfit and you'd surrender instantly to get the pictures. You're too easy to read.]
In the Leviathan Office:
Serafall puffed out her cheeks, slamming her fists on her desk. "I AM NOT THAT WEAK! And... wait... Sona-chan in a maid outfit? Alexander-tan... do you actually have those? No! Focus, Serafall! I'm a Demon Lord!"
Behind her, her staff watched as their leader shifted between fury and intense drooling.
In the Sitri Estate:
Sona Sitri buried her face in her hands, her steam rising from her head. "Alexander... you... you idiot! Why are you thinking about me in a maid outfit?! And why does my sister actually want them?!"
The Dragon's Call
But the biggest impact was on the Dragons.
Tiamat actually fell off her hoard of gold. The aura she felt wasn't just "strong"—it was Apex. It was the aura of a King that made Great Red look like a lizard.
Ophis, in her silent void, stood up. "Reinhardt... Alexander... my mate."
Alexander's Inner Voice:
[Internal Thought: My magic power is so dense now, it feels like I could crush the Gremory territory just by flexing. I'm an Apex Dragon God with the blood of Zekram Bael. I'm basically a walking cheat code. Maybe I should bring out my second best sword? The one I used to split the sky back home?]
Rias, Akeno, and Grayfia (All hearing this): "HE HAS A SECOND ONE?!"
Alexander's Inner Voice:
[Internal Thought: But first... I need to go to Kuoh Academy. I need to see the look on Malty's face when she realizes her 'fiance' is no longer the weakling she can cheat on. And Issei... boy, you are in for a very, very bad day. I might just take Ddraig away from you. The Red Dragon deserves a better host than a guy who thinks with his crotch.]
The Morning Departure
Alex stood up, his school uniform fitting him perfectly, though it felt like it was straining against his new, divine physique. He walked out of his room to find Grayfia and Sylpha waiting.
"Master," Grayfia said, her voice softer than usual. "The car is ready for Kuoh."
Alexander's Inner Voice:
[Internal Thought: God, they look beautiful this morning. If I wasn't a Runcandel, I'd just stay home and cuddle with them all day. School is a waste of time when you have silver-haired goddesses at home.]
Grayfia and Sylpha both looked away, their faces glowing red, unable to handle the blunt honesty of his inner heart.
