A Cliché Multiverse Story

God pondered where he went wrong with Sandalphon and Gabriel. The two were normal until they met Asahi.

'Yes, it's his fault for corrupting them. They are in their rebellious phase now.'

He decided to not push them further. "Asahi lad, the final product is ready. Come to my workshop."

Sandalphon patted Asahi's arm. "Marriage?"

Before Asahi could coax the innocent angel, Gabriel pulled her away. "Sandalphon, you dimwit. Marriage is not… Asahi, you can go with Father. I'll educate Sandalphon."

Asahi almost laughed when Gabriel called Sandalphon a dimwit. Even though she grew some wits, she was still an airhead at her core.

Asahi caressed Sandalphon's face. "You aren't ready for that, I promise you."

Asahi was always ready to welcome a sweet angel like Sandalphon. With time and some knowledge, she would be prepared for becoming his spouse.

Sandalphon gulped down anxiously and nodded. "I'll learn everything you teach me, Teacher."

"Sweet," he moved closer and pecked her cheeks. "You'll become my greatest student."

Between Ais, Riveria, and Sandalphon, the angel had the advantage of a higher-ranked world. The spirits or elves couldn't compare to the highest-ranked angels. But Ais was a special case for being the second protagonist of her world. As for Riveria, well, she had the high elf lineage and a decent talent to boot. She would be fine even in the world of High School DxD.

Sandalphon smiled, her chest swelling with pride. "Yes, Teacher!"

As he was about to leave, Gabriel gave him a puppy-eyed look. Utterly devastated by her cuteness, he kissed her lips on the spot.

"Oi, don't start here!" God's voice rumbled in the chamber. "I have built a place. Go there!"

Asahi chuckled. "No need to cry, Old Man. I'm coming to you."

"I'm not crying for fox's sake."

"You are bad at censoring, Father-in-law."

Gabriel squirmed, her cheeks red in embarrassment. "We should explore the… new house Father built… would you accompany me?"

Gabriel looked forward to exploring various things, including some new experiences, such as sex.

'We're engaged now… it's common for couples to do the ritual of sex.'

Gabriel blushed even imagining the things her fellow angels had taught her. If that wasn't enough, Shizuka had added spark to her curiosity during her date with Asahi.

"Yes, of course."

Time was ripe to pluck the flower he had been gardening with great effort.

Gabriel's cheeks relaxed, and a wide smile blossomed. She was truly the apple of Heaven.

Sandalphon had seen them flirt before… but it was never to this extent. They seemed to treat her like air while lost in each other. There was a considerable difference in treatment between them. She had nothing against the two but respect. Yet, she felt a grievance within her heart.

'I also exist… Teacher. Why won't you look at me?'

Blinded by new emotions, Sandalphon was treading a dangerous path.

Asahi was a bit surprised by the final product of the Boosted Gear. It was even bigger than the prototype. The metal scaling on the gauntlet was also bulkier. The aesthetics were also different, however. The scales were still crimson and the gem emerald, but there was an extra golden engraving on the scales as well as golden linings around the edges.f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

"It's the engagement gift from my beautiful Gabriel," God said with a grin. "Don't sweat, lad. You can handle it."

"What will I get for Sandalphon?" Asahi asked in a sarcastic tone.

"Heh. Sandalphon herself is a gift. A strong-willed and loyal woman who would always put you at the front and center of her world. Does that not fancy you, my horny lad."

Nobody knew Sandalphon more than her creator.

"I'm not horny. I just have more love in my heart than thirty men combined," Asahi declared as he took up the Boosted Gear. "So I just wear it?"

"How could it be so simple?" God deadpanned. "We'll need to anchor it to your soul if you want the ability to summon it anytime. And another thing. You'll have to resync the gear with Ddraig's soul. The connection got disrupted when you took the Astral Pod home."

(My love, let me anchor the Boosted Gear to your soul part! Just come to the void. I will ask for some KP… and some quality mofu mofu time.)𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮

'Of course.'

"I'll do the soul anchoring myself," Asahi said while wearing the gauntlet. "Let's take care of Ddraig first."

He stepped into the Astral Pod and allowed himself to fall asleep. Having mastered the art of sleeping, it took him less than ten seconds to fall into slumber. He had prepared his heart for a surprise. for a shock. Yet, he wasn't prepared for a giant dragon sleeping with its cheeks nuzzled against a spear.

(My love, don't forget it's an anime world. Anything goes around these areas!)

'True.'

Asahi snuck up on Ddraig. The unnamed spear of light wriggled out of Ddraig's hands and wrapped itself around Asahi's neck like a rope. Asahi ran his finger along the glowing rope and sensed minor vibrations.

(The cute thing is happy to meet her father again.)

'Stop giving genders to a spear I randomly created!'

Ddraig's reptilian eye snappily opened with a fierce glint, a murderous intent flowing from her being.

"It's you," Ddraig said, her eyes softening at the sight of Asahi. "I thought God came to steal her."

The dragon seemed to become overprotective of the light spear, thinking of it as a girl like Klyscha.

Asahi pointed at the rope hanging around his neck. "Are you… thinking of it as your child?"

"My child?" Ddraig curiously tilted her head. "Why would I do that? I just like the cold sensation she gives when I hug her."

"Oh… I see."

Ddraig lowered her head on the ground and pushed her snout against Asahi's chin. "How did you end up here today?"

Asahi stroked her scale-covered snout. "You can finally leave."

Ddraig shook off his hand. Raising her head, she blew a large breath of flames at the ceiling. "What are we waiting for?"

The Heavenly Dragon's excitement level was off the charts. Even though she was used to being alone in caves, this place was just not for her. She couldn't personalize it enough and soar the endless skies in search of a worthy opponent.

Asahi chuckled at Ddraig's excited state.. "Just a few formalities."
