Gilgamesh in DxD

And he has sufficient wealth in the [Gate of Babylon] as well as other means of obtaining immortality.

As for women, he was happy with Valerie.

Sirzechs sighed in defeat as Grayfia had a frown on her face.

He was only a human so he should be more than grateful that her husband made this proposal in person.

It should be pretty simple to convince him.

"I'm sorry for the intrusion, but I think you understand our meaning as a devil right?" Grayfia asks looking at him and Sirzechs incarnates her with curiosity.

"Yes," replied Gilgamesh, smiling.

"And why aren't you afraid?" Grayfia asked calmly, "We are beings who can hurt you on a whim"

As if she were testing him, Grayfia unleashed some of her demonic energy, creating a shock wave that shattered the glass in the windows and overhead lights. A visible, black and red aura formed around her body as she spread her wings, gathering spheres of demonic energy in her hands.

Sirzechs stared at his wife with a face that could be described as: "What are you trying to do?"

The entire group of Gilgamesh became serious and increased their power prepared for anything Grayfia sent.

Gilgamesh just found it amusing.

Well, Gilgamesh guessed that Grayfia was hiding a great deal of power from her. After all she had power comparable to a Satan, said to have power compared to Serafall Leviathan and there was also a reason she was the strongest [Queen] in the underworld.

Gilgamesh had to give it to Grayfia. She was strong and in control. But if a mere devil could make him cringe, what kind of King of Heroes would Gilgamesh be?

The source of Grayfia's display of power was the demonic energy within her. It was like a waterfall that originated from a stream. Cut the stream and the waterfall disappears. All Gilgamesh had to do was carefully extract some strength from him and snap his fingers.

The relentless aura instantly vaporized into the air.

Any demonic energy Grayfia was mustering disappeared along with her. The queen's eyes widened, and the color in her cheeks faded as she stumbled back before Gilgamesh snapped his fingers again and the wave of demonic energy flowed back into her body.

"What just happened?" Sirzechs asked, eyeing Gilgamesh warily, for not even he understood.

Grayfia's hand firmly gripped the side of the sofa as if helping her balance. Her breathing was a little harder and deeper than moments before, but other than that, her face didn't catch any other outward emotion. It reminded him a lot of Koneko, actually.

Gilgamesh smiled. He simply stated:

"I'm not afraid, because there's nothing to fear"

The queen's gaze was wary for good reason. For the first time in probably a long time, she was completely outdone by an opponent. Gilgamesh could barely imagine the panic going through her mind as he effectively switched off the demonic energy in her, downgrading her from a devil to the level of a mere human.

Sirzechs, seeing his wife's face, quickly rose and stepped in front of her.

While he was wary of the fact that his wife had been almost turned off with a single snap of Gilgamesh's fingers he was also very curious to know how far this power would go.

If Sirzechs knew how much he would regret it.

"I'm sorry about my wife, she's mad about what you did to my sister. We're on our way out," said Sirzechs, closing his eyes.

"But before that I would like to give you a warning" said Sirzechs opening his eyes and releasing his power making the whole house shake

It felt like the world itself was vibrating as Sirzechs' demonic aura sprang to life causing an aura of destruction power to surge around him.

Even Gilgamesh's servants and group were surprised by the power of the Crimson Maou, especially Asia and Valerie who were feeling suffocated until Enkidu protected them.

That was the power of the irregular Devil the power of a Super Devil.

A devil capable of rivaling Gods.

"If you become a threat to my Faction or my sister or my wife I will destroy you," Sirzechs said with great power and seriousness in his voice to get the message across.

Everything was silent for a moment.

So something cut this silence

It was laughter.

Gilgamesh was laughing as if he had just seen the funniest thing in the world.

Everyone was perplexed by this reaction including Sirzechs who never imagined anyone would laugh if he could.

"Hahahaha that was very good Sirzechs, it's been a long time since I had so much laughter" said Gilgamesh as he calmed down from the burst of laughter.

Then the King of Heroes got up and walked to stand beside Sirzechs.

Then Gilgamesh placed his hand on the Devil King's shoulder, and all of Sirzechs' aura vanished to his own shock.

"After all if we're going to discuss something..." said Gilgamesh as he looked Sirzechs straight in the eye.

The same looked into Gilgamesh's eyes and all was silent.

Then the sound of falling took everyone's attention.

Everyone was perplexed by what they saw.

Sirzechs Lucifer the Strongest Devil in the Underworld, the ragged devil who reached the top ten and who in his true form is considered a monster, was kneeling with an expression of terror at the feet of Gilgamesh.

Gilgamesh looked at him wearily.

"That's better. If we are going to discuss something you must understand who exactly is above whom," said Gilgamesh looking at Sirzechs with boredom.

"Know your place, Mongrel." said Gilgamesh with disgust in his eyes.

For he is the King of Heroes and would not accept anyone, in heaven or on earth, who stares at him from above.

Not even the Strongest Devil was worthy to look into his eyes.

...

Fear.

Fear is a primordial feeling something that has been inside of us from the beginning.

All beings have fear, from men to animals, because no one can live without it, something that is within us like love and hate.

Fear is a survival instinct that helps us to evolve in each moment.

It is an instinct that awakens when we have only one thought.

Fight or Run?

Animals see fear as an ally as it helps them survive and thrive, attachments that help them live under the dangers of the world.

Humans saw fear as weakness and tried to get rid of it, but this is impossible because fear is in everyone.

It's something that moves humanity, although they try to ignore it. Humans bypass fear. They think they don't need it. Many argue otherwise, that fear is a survival skill. But if that were the case, why is it still necessary when humanity is the dominant predator? Why does the top of the food chain need survival skills? Because humanity knows, deep down, that there is something to be afraid of.

Fear is an overwhelming feeling that we could never help being without it.

But there are also many kinds of fear, that of a warrior dying in battle or of a child because of the father's anger.

But there is something even more frightening, when you are faced with an unbelievable being, someone so overwhelming that his very existence is meaningless, a being that could kill you whenever he wanted and that would bring fear into even the hearts of the most powerful warriors.
