141 Introductory to the Spliced Faction

Ginji looked towards Draig seriously causing the Feratu pay attention as the man was usually rather goofy.

"What is you wish to discuss" asked Draig displaying his seriousness.

"It would be better if we talked about it in private" hinted Ginji looking towards Souta and the woman at the side serving tea.

"It'll be fine, if they wish to do something untoward then it will be the last thing they ever do" stated Draig causing Souta to nod as if it wasn't him they were talking about.

"If you say so. . . I wish to discuss a possible method to bring your other Avatar into full Manifestation while your in Materialization" Stated Ginji causing Draig to look surprised, he hadnt' expected the smith to actually be concerned with his problem like that.

"What do you have in mind" asked Draig as he motioned for the girl with the tea pot to set out another cup for Ginji.

"You are aware that your Avatar can affect your weapon, correct" asked Ginji looking towards Draig to find any familiarity with this piece of information.

"I am aware, that is the reason my 'brush' won't cut" answered Draig causing Ginji to nod.

"Well the same is true for the reverse, your weapon can affect your Avatar." continued Ginji nodding his head when he saw he had Draig's undivided attention.

"So your saying that a new weapon might be necessary in order to bring about a full Manifestation" confirmed Draig making sure he was understanding correctly.

"Exactly" answered Ginji smiling as he knew what the next concern for the Feratu would be.

"How are we to get the materials for this so called weapon you are proposing" asked Draig as he held the Thousand Fold blade closely.

Ginji looked mortified at what Draig had thought and had to quickly alleviate the Vampire lest he decide it as the only way.

"I heard there was some kind of Valley that the Deva Association dumped all the corpses of those fallen Deva along with their weapons, if we go there then maybe we can find some proper materials to manufacture your new weapon. However there is a problem" explained Ginji causing Draig to wonder what their next problem could possibly be.

"What is it. . . ." sighed the Feratu.

"From what I have been able to discern from my contacts here in the Deva Grounds the area where the Valley is has been claimed as the territory of one of the Disciplinary Committee members that goes by the name Splice Mouth. A nasty one, rumors say that he uses the Valley for Replacement parts due to the nature of his Avatar making it possible for to connect dead tissue to his own body and use it as his own." informed Ginji causing Draig to raise one of his eyebrows at this, would there really be such an ability in this world.

"Are you certain that this rumor is reliable" asked Draig but instead it was Souta that answered.

"It is no rumor, the Valley you speak of is known as the Deva's final Path" answered Souta surprising both Ginji and Draig that he would know of the place they were speaking of.

"So you know about this place" asked Draig looking towards the odd youth.

"It used to be under Tsukuba's domain which had caused quite a bit of in fighting among the Disciplinary Committee between him and Splice mouth, but since you have killed Tsukuba it would only make sense for him to take residence there. . . . ." explained Souta causing Draig to sigh.

"It seems this is fate, the Disciplinary had come to start trouble and speak of reputation instead of what is right and what is wrong. It was only a matter of time before we crossed paths again. . . . ." sighed Draig as he stood up with his swords strapped to his waist.

"Where are you going" asked Ginji surprised at the decisiveness Draig showed.

"To go and open the way" answered Draig as if was obvious.

"Don't go by yourself, Splice mouth will obviously have a whole swarm of underlings. If you go alone then you will only be dooming yourself, regardless of your ability to Materialize your Avatar" halted Ginji as he tried to talk some sense into the Feratu.

Draig however didn't need anymore  convincing however he did have something that he didn't have before causing him to smirk.

"Who said I was going alone. . . . ." chuckled Draig as he cast his eyes over to the Unaffiliated Deva that had come under his command by an odd twist of Fate.

Ginji seemed to realize what he was saying but still shook his head.

"No it's still too much, their numbers will decimate us before we can even encounter Splice mouth." spoke Ginji shaking his head.

"Then I suppose I have something I've been wanting to try as a just in case sort of thing, what better time to try it than a mock of the exact situation I had in mind" smiled Draig causing Souta to stand up as if nodding his willingness to join in.

Ginji looked at the two and sighed, it seemed they would be going one way or another as he couldn't refuse the Feratu, the Vampire would go whether he said not to or not.

"I will inform the others, Master is there anything you need to prepare before we leave" asked Souta checking with the Feratu to make sure that it would be appropriate for him to begin Rallying the people of this new Faction.

"Not quite allow me a bit of time to prepare my special surprises. . . . . . . . ." spoke Draig ominously which did nothing but give Ginji a few shivers down his spine.

'Master is so cool . . . .' thought Souta reverently as his own little anthem began playing in his mind, Ginji looked towards the worshipful youth hoping to find a comrade in the fear factor of the Feratu but instead saw the youth smiling as if there was nothing wrong in the world.
