Chapter 138 - The Pitiful Loki (DXD)...

Chaos Dragon God Empire~ (Danmachi)

Silver lies alone on the grassy field at the back of the Imperial Palace; His gaze is focused on a seemingly floating screen. Watching certain people 'play' in a certain place as they 'play' around. Heaving a sigh of boredom, Silver thought, 'Might as well sleep'. As he closed his eyes along with the floating screen disappearing.

Inside a towering building that has its tip hiding in the clouds, there 'plays' fourteen people.

Not really.

The fourteen people are inside a dungeon that's within the Chaos Empire, killing monsters as they go while teaching and helping a little green-haired girl named Ella on how to use Fire, Water/Ice, Earth, Wind, Lightning.

The little girl named Ella can be given the title of a "Little Genius" for she learns fast and thanks to the bloodline and the 'Problem Group' guiding her in every step. And that's right, this group is the 'Problem Group' if anyone could give their group a title, then 'Problem Group' is a fitting one.

It has been three weeks since Silver integrated the High-Elf Bloodline on Ella, awakening the Attribute called Nature, which has never been seen on this verse or anyone possesses it but now awakened and with Ella possessing it.

Ever since Silver finished integrating the bloodline to Ella and with the group hearing about Ella, having the Attribute Nature (Ability is what they call here) took her away from Silver and has been going into the dungeon to train her while helping and giving her pointers from time to time. (Goddess Daisy, Serafall, Mira, Hanc.o.c.k, and Erza for the others doesn't really know how to teach her)

On the morning, they would go inside the dungeon whilst in the afternoon, they would make her fight a dragon, a mage from Earthland or anyone that could help train her in her fighting capabilities. The 'Problem Group' would spar with her from time to time to make her more adept at using her respective abilities.

Silver wanted to tag along but decided not to for the Goddess is with them so he just lazed around, doing nothing but watch them go at it.

The group walks as they reach the final floor of the dungeon.

"Hmm? Where's Loki?" checked Serafall as she looked around.

"Loki?" asked Little Ella.

"He's the final boss of this dungeon, so said Silver," informed Mira.

"Let's look around," said Rose, seemingly excited as she walked forward.

The group followed her, trying to find Loki as they talk.

Not long after, Shirone caught sight of a figure, sitting and hiding beside a boulder that looks like… Trembling?

Stopping on her track, she focused her gaze on the figure, thinking she is right, she said. "I found Loki! There he is!" with her finger pointed to Loki.

'Oh no! They found me! I must run away from here!' thought Loki, who tried to stand up but his feet failed him.

The group stopped walking and looked at the falling Loki who tried to stand up and run away and only to fail and fall.

"Yo! Loki! It has been a while. Can you help us out here? We need you to help train this little girl" greeted Rose as she presented Ella who's gaze sharpened and with a cold glint in her eyes when she saw Loki, thinking. 'So he is the first hurdle before I can try to conquer Silver-sama'

Wait!

How come she would want to conquer Silver now? And in such a short time!?

A few days ago, when Rose and Ella are alone.

Rose said, "Ella, you like Silver?"

"Mm… I owe Silver-sama and Goddess Daisy-sama a lot, I want to be strong so I can stay beside them and protect them" replied Ella.

"Hmm…" Rose went into deep thinking. Seemingly thought of something great, she said, "What do you think about becoming Silver's wife?" with a smile.

"W-w-w-w-wife!?" blushingly said, Ella.

"That's right. Come, let me tell you how" said Rose.

Ella said nothing and just nodded her head.

That was the time Ella's mind got corrupted by Rose.

…

"Please! Spare me!" begged Loki, who kneeled down as tears fell from his eyes.

"Now Now, don't be like that, we're here to let Ella fight with you. See, she's just a little girl. What could she do to you" comforted Rose?

"Re-really?" asked Loki as he looked at Ella.

"Yep," said Rose.

Hearing that, Loki heaved a sigh of relief as he was finally able to stand up and said, "Alright. Come, little girl, let's fight" with a gesture from his finger, inviting Ella to come forward.

"Wait! She doesn't know anything about you. So, let's fight first so Ella could learn a bit!" said Rose as she swiftly flew towards Loki.

"Wha-" before Loki could finish his piece, Rose already punched him in the face. Loki flew up as blood gushed out from his mouth, leaving a trail of blood as he flew up.

"Ella! Watch and learn!" shouted Rose happily as she flew up, following Loki up.

Ella engraved the 'fight' on her mind as she watched the 'fight'. Not long after, Loki's body fell from the sky with a thud.

Dead.

"Oh. He died again" said Rose.

"No worry, he will come back to life," said Ophis.

"Right" agreed Semiramis.

Waiting for some time. Loki came back to life! Fresh and trembling!

'You said that little girl will fight me! How come you went ahead and killed me!' sorrowfully thought Loki.

"Alright! I'm next. Watch little Ella," said Nyx.

Loki couldn't do anything but just fight his all or he would suffer a lot worse than being killed by this group. Loki didn't know how much time he got killed already at the hands of this 'Problem Group'. If he won't fight back, they will torture him until he agrees. Thus all he could do now is 'fight' and get killed, again and again.

Ella watched the fight not forgetting anything and engraving them to her mind. The group went one by one and fought Loki (Killed) and when it's time for Ella's turn. She felt hungry, so she said, "I'm hungry"'

The Goddess looked at Ella when she heard that she's hungry and thought, 'It's already evening. Might as well continue tomorrow' then she informed the group who all agreed to continue tomorrow.

Looking at the newly revived Loki, Rose informed him, "We will continue tomorrow, so get ready" as they all walked out from the room and until the exit of the dungeon.

"Please! Don't ever come back! I Beg You!"

Shouted Loki when he knew that the group couldn't hear him and sat as he cried on the corner… Silently.
