The Decisive Battle!

(A/N : Sorry, in my last DxD fic, I put on a very bad ending because I wasn't sane enough when I published the last chapter. You know, school stuff and my crush rejected me... In this fic. It began after chapter 8 of my last (very, very)bad fic. Issei has not gained the 12th step of Extreme Truth. There will be less plagiarism and a better ending, I promise to you.

And let's just say the last chapter of my first fic never happened. I hope you give me another chance. Enjoy please :D )

First day of school after summer holiday
06.35 AM

I, Hyoudou Issei, woke up on my own bed. The last thing I remember is I went to bed with all the girls in my Harem excluding Ravel, Rossweisse, Irina, and Xenovia. I sat up on the bed covered with blue sheets and looked around my surroundings. There was my beauty of a fiance Rias, Akeno, Asia, Koneko, and last but not least Ophis. All of them naked.

I quietly got off the bed without even touching any of my girls. The first thing I did when I got off the bed was to put on some underwear first. So after I put on one I picked from my damn huge cabinet, I headed towards my bathroom.

I put on some toothpaste on my toothbrush as soon after I got it among the girls' toothbrush. While brushing, I can't stop thinking what event will encounter me at this very morning.

Afterwards, I gurgled over and over again, just to make sure my breath doesn't stink. I put my toothbrush back to its place. Barely ready for the day.

"Ara ara, what are you doing this early, Ise?" Akeno-san asked me by the bathroom doorway, still naked.
"Just getting ready for the day.." I replied, almost stuttering.

Her smile is somewhat 'S' and sweet!

"Can I help you with morning sex? Ufufu..." She giggled teasing me, but not letting her seductive expression off her face.

"Oh yeah! That would be great!" I replied without hesitation. She also did not wait to come to me with her black hair untied, swaying beside her sexy hips. She held my head with both of her hands to pull me closer for a kiss.

I accepted the kiss, just as soon as I am going to stick out my tongue to hers, a familliar sound occurs.

"Akeno! What do you think you're doing with my and only Ise..!?"

R-r-rias?!

"Ara ara, I deserve to pleasure him too, Rias. After all, I'm in his harem, too..."

"NO! I will keep saying no until Hell froze over! He is my Ise!" "What if I don't want to let go of him? Ufufu..." "Why you!"

She let her grip on my head loose and started to charge lightning powers, as usual. While Rias is still emitting her Power of Destruction aura, I said.

"Girls.. Um.. You might not want to wake Asia and the others, even my parents."

But they seem to not care about my warning and started intimidating each other! Akeno with her 'S' smile has got her hands off my head by now and focused on her entire energy.

"Akeno? Rias? Stop it please...?!"

They didn't care about my next warning. Only charging their powers on their own ego. Their urge to be my one and only. I do not know whether to be honored, to be happy, or to be scared with their powers combined.

Well, this morning in my house might end up with Akeno, Rias, and the other girls trying to compete each other out..

06.58 AM

After I took my breakfast and bid farewell to my parents, I took my walk to school in front of the rest of my harem. It's been a long time since I didn't wear my school uniform. The uniform that witnessed me confessed my feelings for Rias, that witnessed the moment when I took Rias' virginity, and many more.

Asia started our conversation by saying "How's your friends, Ise?"

"Friends? Which ones?" I replied, she answered by "The male ones that is associated with the 'Trio-trio' thingy ..."

How in the world does she able to know The Perverted Trio?!

Oh wait.. We are infamous in the entire school because of our perverted minds.

"Uh... Erm..." I paused. "I guess they're okay. Why?" I replied her with a big question mark in my mind. "Oh, I was just wondering. Because they seem to get along with you, Ise"

"They was. But they consider me as their life-nemesis as soon as they know I hooked up with Rias."

Then I can see a hint of jealousy in Asia's eyes. As that happens, Koneko spoke up with her usual cool tone. "Huh, they must be jealous of Senpai." "Probably.. Hehe.. I did my best to keep their anger off the limits, though."

"You are sure a kind man, Issei." A familliar male voice spoke to me when I crossed the crossings near Kuoh Academy. "Yuuto?! I thought you were already at school?!" Rias spoke up with her usual cute attitude.

"No. I was a little bit late due to my mother who asked for help this morning." "Oh. Okay." She replied again

Kuoh Academy Main Gate
07.21 AM

"Well. See you later Rias and Akeno!" I said my goodbye to both of them. Akeno went up the stairs before Rias. When almost all of the students watching Rias' beauty beside me, she kissed me in the cheek and whispered seductively. "I'll be missing you, my dearest."

She then waved to me as a farewell and got her steps to her own class. I, too, goes to my own class along with Asia by my side. I sat on my and Asia's desk. Asia's friends suddenly approached my desk the time she came in. Feeling there's nothing to do but listen to these girls gossiping, I decided to go out of the class and find someone to talk to.

"Hey! There's that punk!" "Let's kill him!" "Make him pay!" "OOUUGHH!"

Uh.. What the fuck? MATSUDA ? MOTOHAMA?!

I ran as fast as I could with countless numbers of males from 1st grade to 3rd grade are after my ass, led by Matsuda and Motohama. I attempted to break their pursuit and to lose them, but it didn't work! They really want to kill me and I am not permitted to use my powers in the human world unless it's an emergency.

But this IS an emergency! Can I use my powers NOW!?

I have no option to lose them in the school rooftop. So I headed towards the set of stairs, ascended it with thousands of anger and battle cries behind me. They move like there's no tomorrow!

Finally, I saw the door to the rooftop and opened it, not forgetting to grab a mop beside the door. I closed the metal door and stuck a mop on the handle, like what I have done in The Siege. Then, I felt relieved because I had managed to hold them back, and I caught some breath.

I was being happy of them getting held back, when the handle got barged and they got into the same floor as me. One of the school's best thugs is also here! Fuck my life!

They charged me at sight, leaving me no choice but to run. Until I can't run anymore because there's no more room for me to escape but to jump below. To the ground.

"Sorry guys, got to go!" With that, I spread my arms and got ready to jump.

When the jealous guys are about to catch me by the feet, I already jumped.

Not sure where to land on, So quickly I took off my belt and swung it towards one horizontal flag pole outside of the Headmistress' office. I gained momentum by swinging around two times very quickly that the flagpole almost came off the wall. Then, I jumped onto one level of fire escape.

Oh shit.

Unfortunately, I didn't manage to land on the concerte level, so I reached out for the iron bars that were designed for safety. I gripped it and pulled myself up.

[Creeak]

"OH! Geez, Ise.. You scared me..." The one who appeared by the door is none other that Rias Gremory, my own girlfriend. "Likewise. I thought it was some other jealous boys."

"Wait... They hunted you, too?" "Yes. What did they do to you?"

"I was sitting in my classroom, chatting with Akeno and the other friends, when suddenly some of my fangirls came to my class without permission, and they started asking me questions. You know I ain't too good with these things, my Ise. So I left them and told them not to follow me. I was about to relax here from all the crowd and then you shocked me by your appearance. What about you?"

"Yeah. Similar to you, I was about to take a walk around the school since it has been one month I didn't came here. Then those horny boys came with anger all over their faces. I had no choice but to run to the rooftop. But sooner, I was trapped by the edge of the building. So I had to jump here."

She held her laughter by giggling only "Ufufu.. How did you manage to jump here? We are not allowed to use our devilish powers unless it's emergency, right?"

"Yeah. Don't ask how. I almost get suspended for breaking one of the flagpoles outside the headmistress' office." She giggled again.

[DDRRIIIINNNGGG...!] The bell rang, indirectly commanding the students to go to their respective classes and be ready for lessons.

"Well. I'd best get going, then?" I asked to my lover, she nodded and pulled my body into hers. Without anymore words, she smooched me sexily, leaving me no choice but to kiss her back. "Ri-rias... You.. Mm.. Might not want to be late.. nnm.. for class..."I stuttered between hot kisses and Rias' tongue is still sticking in my mouth.

We stayed like that for a while, barely caring about someone looking at us with jealousy. Until the certain crimson-haired girl broke the kiss and looked deep into my eyes. "Ise..." "Yes?" I cupped her cheek. "I'd go to my class. I'll be seeing you after school" She added a wink before leaving by the door. I too, still attempting to taste the remaining of Rias' saliva as I get down the stairs to get to my class.

08.34

"So, students, if we use this method in daily life, it'll be 2. It'll perform a substantial ..."

I regret missing school. This is so boring!

I turned my head to Asia, just to see she is taking her notes and trying to find the theory in her textbook. I, myself is too lazy to do that and without my consideration, I was staring at Asia the whole time while the teacher is explaining crap.

"Hyoudou, are you listening?" The teacher asked me and every single pair of eyes in the class is looking at me, even Asia. "Y-y-yes." "Then tell me, what is the amount of divided by"

Oh shit...

"Pay attention!" "Yes, teach! I'm sorry!" After I got scolded and some guys, especially my frenemies Matsuda and Motohama, gave me 'take-that-you-punk' looks, I continued to pay attention to the teacher regardless if I understand the equations or not.

This is going to be a long day...

After school...
Old School Building
15.53

"We got a problem here in underworld." Azazel-sensei muttered loud enough for the rest of us to hear. "What problem?" Xenovia asked. "The Norn Family..."(A/N : This is getting old, it'll be over quickly, I promise)

"They have been causing fires and chaos not so long ago. The city damage is not big yet, though it might be as the time goes by." He continued. "Rias' brother is also holding them off at the Southwestern Gate of the capital city, Lilith. While his wife is evacuating the civilians..."

"What do they want? Revolution? New world order?" I asked. "No. While women and children scream in fright, they are just looking for one person. Hyoudou Issei."

Oh. Demon Lord!

"Surprisingly... Their leader only consists of 5 person. The government still can't identify their faces because they're wearing a facemask at the moment."

"Why can't the Yondai-Maous kill them all?" I asked.

"It's not that simple, Issei. We can't detect whether they are civilian or they are the offenders. All we can do is to kill the leaders. And they're absolutely strong."

"Let's get there quickly!" Rias said in a rush.

Underworld, Lilith
Cumulus St.

After we all got teleported here by Akeno, I saw buildings on fire and the smell of corpses is everywhere. Women screaming, children crying, and some local warriors killed in pieces.

"We better split up!" Sensei exclaimed. "Issei, you go to the Southernmost gate. Two of their leaders is there. Rias, Akeno, and Asia-san will go to the North Main Gate. Yuuto-san and Xenovia-san will go to the city center. Others help me evacuate the citizens. Dismiss!"

I ran as fast as I could without caring no one or nothing, when I realized one thing.

I didn't bring my equipments.

Fuck.

Oh great. Now I can only fight with my Boosted Gear.

Ddraig..
[Yes?]
Ready to kick some shitty angels?
[You don't have to ask.]

With no other options left, I ran to the big gate that can be seen from here.

...

"Hyoudou Issei...?" One of the leaders with a facemask asked. "Depends." I answered. Then, he spoke to his female(looks like) comrade. "Hey Indie, we're lucky to have him."

Shit.

They charged me at sight, just in time I activated my [Boosted Gear].

Gimme some boost quick!
[Boost!Boost!Boost!Boost!Boost!Boost!Boost!Boost!]

[Extreme Truth!]

[Step Seven!]
[Shade Impulse!]

I felt intense power, but I still haven't equipped my scale mail yet. The two threw an energy orb at me, forcing me to dodge it by jumping.

"Nice reflexes." The female one complimented.

[Reinforced Cardinal Crimson Promotion!]

Well that was fast.

Reddish-black scale mail started to cover my body. And by the time it was done, I was ready to fight.

The male one puts both of his arms in front of him, and started making criss-cross before him.

I thought it was nothing. But—

"Urgh!" He apparently made some blades by his internal elements. It made my scale mail crack also. He then summons a greatsword, and swings it violently to the ground. The impact of it made the grounds shatter and by the time I was distracted, the female one summons green vines from the ground.

Quickly, I set my fire-barrier just to see the green-ish vine thingy burn to crisp. I set my feet on fire so I can rocket into the air for a short period of time to avoid any incoming attacks.

I landed, and rushed onto them with fists clenched. The male one summons a big red scythe and holds it up high. By the time I got closer, he swings it down.

Meh. Just as I thought...

I took two big steps back quickly while backflipping, then I flew towards the scythed man very quickly. I was about to land a punch on his masked face, when the female one gave me a shock of the wind. Making me fall to the ground.

I quickly got up and thought

Which one should I take out first?

While thinking, I rushed to the male one, just as thought, the male one summons a dual gun. Proceeded to shoot bullets at me, I quickly jump and did an aerial recovery, allowing me to land directly above the male one, my fists ready to crush his skulls. But seems he is clever, he summoned a halberd and succeeded to stab me in the left shoulder. I delivered full flame charge at the halberd handle, so the fire harms his armor and the mask got a crack.

While the point of the halberd still stucks in my left shoulder and I'm still crucified-like, I shot some fireballs from my palm to both of the offenders.

Then I managed to escape the halberd and gained a safety position, at least there's some distance between the two and me. The female started summoning greenish razors which I can assume is poison. I can only dodge.

"The source of magic is your imagination..."

With Akeno-san's words in my head, I first created a thick fire-barrier, and started imagining I'm a hamster. So I attempted to run to the two in my hand-made hamsterball against the poison-razors storm. The result was not as good as expected, though. Just as soon as I hit the male one, he recovered quickly and leaped in the air, his mouth forming words, maybe seals.

And then, unexpectedly, I felt a pressure that my body can barely hold. I had got no choice but to stop my hamsterball from defending myself. I drew back my steps and until the female said.

"Heh, is this all your powers?" Just as soon as she finished her sentence, I made a criss-cross, similar to the male one just did. But this is just a decoy to distract their attention. While they are busy countering fire-claws made by myself, I gripped my fists to switch the fire from claws-formed, into ball-formed.

Just as soon as I do that, They got trapped by my circular-formed hell. I opened my grips again to ready some spikes inside the ball, clenched my hands again to strike them from inside.

Why aren't they groaning or screaming? That attack must've harmed them!

I repeated those steps several times over. Clench, open, clench, open, clench, open. But they didn't say a word. For the final touch, I made the same claws but not dismembering the ball-trap, then I ripped roughly the two objects, hoping they would be harmed.

When it was open, I could not believe my eyes.

They was harmed.

But only scratches. "Impressive, Hyoudou boy.. Impressive." The female one complimented, but continued. "But not impressive enough!"

[Step Eight!]
[Grand Lethal!]

The scale mail provided by the Reinforced Cardinal Crimson Promotion is currently being evolved into the Grand Lethal scale mail. "Why you ain't harmed by those attacks?!" I asked in curiosity.

"Because we balanced our attacks and our defenses properly. I still can't believe you beat Masquerada and Gearfried." The female one asked. By the time she finished her statement, my scale mail has already been upgraded. I dashed towards them with supreme speed, the male one easily threw me into the air with his scythe.

While in mid-air, he keeps attempting to rip me with his black scythe. But I can barely feel it. Maybe it's the new power of the Grand Lethal..? I recovered when mid-air, and readied a large fireball on both of my hands. Then, my eyes and the male's eyes glanced a second.

I cupped his cheeks, to explode his face off.

[Kaboooommmm!] He grew unguarded and fell to the ground with maximum damage on his face. I felt some victory until he managed to get up again. He is more immortal than the Phenex family, I thought. Then he charged at me. His mask came off, revealing a 'thrist-for-revenge' young face. He summoned a dual blade, and spins around to cut my throat off. But I managed to dodge it by leaping again.

Ddraig! Why are there people so hard to be harmed?!
{We can't know the answer until you reached the Eagle Vision step, partner]

I gripped my fists to make the same hell-ball I made earlier, just to see if it affects them. As soon as they are covered by flametongues, I repeated the steps to make fire-spikes in the handmade hells.

Clench, release, clench, release, clench, release, clench, release.

I've never felt so weak in my entire life...

I made two fire-scythes and ripped it rougher than I ripped them with fire-claws. But they were barely harmed. My techniques only rips their black outfits.

Am I this weak?

"Now, It's our turn to strike."

THEY HAVEN'T?!

The female teleported behind me and attempted to stab me with a pinkish-green blade in my neck. But my scale mail said it all. The neck-guard blunted the poison blade, leaving her caught off guard. Seeing this opportunity, I kicked her very hard that she flew uncontrollably into one of citizens' house.

[Step Four!]
[Divine Flair!]

I think I know their weaknesses.

With extreme speed, I was behind the male warrior within no time. I quickly draw as much power as I can into my right index finger, and by the time he turns around to face me, I extended my arm.

[Dragon-Shot!]

[Kabooooooom! Boom!]

He flew out pushed by my Dragon-Shot. He knocked the gates that indicates the borders between Lilith and the wild nature. As far as I can see, he knocked down some trees and some farmers' house. But in the end, my dragon-shot almost pulverised a mountain.

The female one came out from the ruins of a house. She released a numerous amount of poison blades, but I managed to block it with my fire-barrier. "I do not wish to hurt girls... But I have to. Sorry!" Just as soon as I finished my sentence, I leaped to be above her, and with the speed of a lightning, I be behind her and charged my fists.

She turns around when I threw my Hiken to her head.

[Cruuusshhh! Boom! Swooshh!]

She was sent flying into (another) citizens' houses with her head being bloody and her brains splattered... ONE DOWN!

Sorry, citizens of Lilith!

Moments later, the male came to me flying with his worn out angel wings. He prepared a longsword for executing me. But with my remaining energy, I jumped to the back of him and thrusted my punch into the back of his head.

The results can be predictable. He was sent crushed to the ground with his brains splattered everywhere.

I landed...

I... won?

"FUCK YEAAA! Did you see that?! Demon Lord! I beat two Ultimate-class angels by myself! Yeah!"

[Partner.. Let's rejoice later. We have some more comrades to help!]
Right! Let's get going!

Rias.. Everyone, wait for me!

Lilith, North Main Gate
17.30

"Be vaporized into dust...!" I heard Rias shouts her battle-cry. The moment I take a look behind the ruins of an apartment, she's already making one of their leaders vanish without any of his or her body parts remaining.

As expected. She knew their weaknesses.

Then, I rush into Asia, Akeno, and Rias' position. "Hey, how—HEY!"
Without even able to finish my sentence, Akeno fires a lightning bolt at me, as if I'm the enemy. "Ara ara... It was you, Ise?" "Ise-san! You are fine! I'm so afraid!" Asia-san hugged me gently. With me patting her head, I asked to Rias who has a serious face at times like these.

"How many did you encounter?" I asked. "Two of them. Incredibly strong though. One has got the power to read minds and the other has got power to summon random hostile animals. How about you?" Rias asked me back. "Two also. A man who can summon any weapon he likes and a girl who can summon poison-typed attacks." Asia then let go of me and asked. "Do you need healings, Ise?" "Yes, please." I took off my scale mail, and continued. "On my left shoulder. Please do it gently." I smiled before sitting on the ground to provide more clear sight for Asia to heal me.

"Ise.." Rias called my name.. "Yes?" "You didn't use dress break, didn't you?"

Why the hell I didn't think of it earlier!?

I snapped my right fingers. "I forgot!" "Ufufu... It's better that way."

"Where's Kiba-kun and Xenovia-kun?" I asked once more. "Once you're done with your healings, we can rush into the city center."

Similar to what Rias said before, after my left shoulder got healed perfectly and it can reach full potential, I thanked Asia by giving her a quick kiss on the cheek before heading to the city center.

Upon reaching there, Kiba and Xenovia has just finished their opponent by giving a Sword-Birth-Durandal combo. I got my chill just looking what if Xenovia and Kiba was angry with me. I put the thought aside and Xenovia asked to Rias. "Has the citizens evacuated yet?" "Yes. Seems like so." She said.

We all stood here in the main square of the city centre after Asia had healed them both. We can see the Lilith City Hall from here. We, the six warriors chit-chat before given any further information. While we was busy paying attention to each other, a nice welcome was being greeted to us.

"Good afternoon, fellow warriors." A pale man with black coat and black cape appeared in front of the city hall . His face looks like a serial killer. Behind him was ten Norn Family Spec Ops. "You made this far and you killed my best men?*applauds* Wow. You must have guts!"

"I am, Archangel Martin. The last remaining of the Norn Family bloodline. All you have to do is beat me. And your sufferings of being wanted by our family will be history."

He is the last Norn.

All I have to do is beat him, and Rias is all mine.

Wait! It's not the time to think of that! I must fight!

"So... Let us fight with honor."
"This is going to get epic." I whispered for myself. All of my friends are readying themselves, too.

He leaped highly backwards towards the back of the spec ops soldiers, giving them a sign to shoot at us. Quickly, I set a large fire-barrier for us to protect ourselves. Rias, herself is casting some of her destructive wind-razors behind the last Norn. But unfortunately, he predicted it was coming, leaving the razors only hit two of the spec ops.

Just as soon as they finished shooting, I took off the fire-barrier and activated my Boosted Gear

Ddraig! Give me boost!
[Leave it to me! Boost!Boost!Boost!Boost!Boost!Boost!Boost!Boost!Bo ost!Boost!Boost!Boost!Boost!Boost!]

[Reinforced Cardinal Crimson Promotion!]
[Step Eight!]
[Grand Lethal!]

While the scale mail covers my body and the rest of my comrades is already striking them, Ddraig said this.

[You have 18 minutes to finish this guy. Or your body would not stand it]
How long until we reach step nine?!
[...]

Oh, fuck you too. Well, I suppose it's up to me to finish this guy, then. I dashed towards the Archangel who is still busy blocking attacks from my friends. Then, I made the similar fire-claws and began to strike him. I did not recognize it until there's only TWO of the spec ops left. But it didn't matter to me.

With extreme speed, he countered all of our attacks, that means Kiba, Xenovia, me, Akeno, and Rias' attacks. Then, he clenched his palm to make a light-spike around him.

Ddraig, what happens if I used Hiken more than twice?
[You might pass out.]

Even though none of us get hit by the light-spikes, we still assume that he's very, very strong. I shot fireballs at him from three different directions. But he managed to dodge it, even if the fireballs home at him. I dashed towards him and performed a low knee-kick. Continued by Kiba's sword birth and Xenovia's barbarian-like swing.

He coughed out blood and wiped his mouth with his cape. "Seems I took you easily. Very well." With insane speed, he dashed towards us with a light-sword in hand. "Khah! Khah!" His battle cries echoes throughout the whole city center, leaving us almost helpless.

I grabbed his wrist which is still holding the light sword, and I delivered a deep punch to his face with some fire on the back of my fingers. Hardly standing yet, Akeno-san's lightning jolts electrocuted the hell out of him.

Akeno-san's... SMILING?!

Putting the thoughts aside, I could not believe my eyes when he can still manage to jump despite those attacks. He then threw some light-spear at us, forcing us to dodge. But I could not let him taste all the victory, so I clenched my fists to make the same, but thicker hell-ball that was made to torture the opponent. Just when I was about to make my scythe—

[Swoooosssh! Crank!]

He broke the chamber!?

With a sadistic smile on his face, similar to Akeno's, He broke down the entire chamber. Kiba then equips his Holy-demonic sword and dashed into Martin Norn.

But with ease, the last member of Norn family wiped him out of his reach. "Yuuto! Do not strike directly!" Rias warned while making some razors from behind Martin. But it was completely, useless either. Martin managed to know where are the razors at. He dodged it with only tries.

[Step four!]
[Divine Flair!]

"It's no use. I can see almost everything with my Espionage Sacred Gear" He said.

'...almost everything'? Almost means not entirely. He must've a blind spot somewhere.

But where? Ah, Step Nine, I wish you were here. "No more? It's my turn now!" With that being said, he releases numerous amount of glowing light spears, levitating behind him as he made a slow motion of his hands to control the spears. I made the usual fire-barrier as fast as I could. All of us felt completely useless when fighting Holy powers. Then, Kiba jumped behind the Archangel with his holy-demonic blade. Kiba swings it into his left flank and managed to harm him.

"Khah!" He screamed in pain, holding his left part of stomach which is soaked by blood just now. "You'll pay!" Then, Martin emitted a light spear that has been pointed to Kiba, ready for the attack.

By then, Xenovia swings her Ex-Durandal roughly to the ground where Martin is standing at. He had no choice but to evade. He took a leap back and started to summon some light-balls. Similar to my fire-balls. But his is quite stronger. I had to summon a personal fire barrier. Five personal fire barriers for us to block the incoming projectiles. By the time he finished firing, he teleported behind Xenovia-san within less than a second.

"Watch out Xenovia!" Rias exclaimed but it was too late. Xenovia has already got her stomach stab by a light spear. She fell to the ground. Being a hero he is, Kiba picked her with lightning speed into Asia's place for healing.

"Oh? There's a girl with Twilight Healing here?" Martin smirked. Then, Akeno-senpai strikes him with her speciality, lightning struck. Just as its name, it strikes like lightning and dissapears like smoke. I can see the damage is pretty good, judging by Martin's face. Then, Kiba leaped high up in the air, while Martin is distracted, I charged at him via his right side as fast as I could. But it was useless. He saw me coming and countered my punch with a headbutt to my scale mail helmet, and kicked my back with some light-holy powers.

Eventually, I was sent flying into one convenient store located not far from the battle location. Concerte wall and glass windows tried to prevent me from getting any further. Nonetheless, I was stopped at last. By a huge fridge deisgned for keeping food ingredients. I got up and dashed towards the punk again. Just to see Kiba was getting beat up by Martin.

That's only three of us left in the battlefield.

I dashed again to the Archangel which is very, very strong. But it was completely useless as predicted. All I can do is make him dodge. Moments of attacking later, he released an extremely powerful light beams. Striking all of us relentlessly, Akeno, Rias, and I summoned a thick barrier, as thick as we can build..

"Ah! Urgh!" I heard Rias and Akeno groaning about the beams trying to break the barriers. We can only block. We can't do anything. Not so long after, the three-layer barriers broke and we three got hit by the beams.

I laid there on the dusty ground when he spoke. "I wanted to play a little longer. But I shall avenge my families' death. I beg your pardons." With that, he exploded all of us from the ground with only one grip. Akeno-san seems to be at loss of blood and she fell unconscious. Rias, meanwhile has her uniform half-torn apart.

This feeling...
When I clashed against Raiser for the first time...
The feeling of.. Defeat..

Apparently no, at least not today. I struggled to get up and flailed my punches hopelessly, knowing I'm about to die. But he managed to kick me in the stomach. Rias, also, gave her best to at least harm Martin. But her attempt was hardly a good use.

I stood up once more. This time, he knocked me down pretty hard with his Light-sword. My Grand Lethal armor was completely worn out. Rias approached me as soon as I took my hit from Archangel Martin.

[cough...]

I puked out blood while Rias said with eyes full of tears. "Thank you *sob* for everything *sob* Ise.. Thank you for *sob* loving me..*"

"No.. I will continue to *cough* protect Rias... Even it costs my life *cough*"

"Ise... " She hugged me between my coughs and semi-consciousness.

Suddenly—

[Step Nine!]
[Eagle Vision!]

Everything suddenly turned black and blue. It's like the negative effect of a camera more or less. I can see goldish-red narrow area below Martin..

Could this be... His blind spot?
[Yes, partner. You can attack him from his below thanks to Step Nine. One more thing.]
What?
[Your time in your Grand Lethal is roughly less than 5 minutes.]

"Huh! Anything that gauntlet does, it will not prevent me from killing you!"

I whispered. "Rias.. *Cough* help me stand. I got an *cough* idea..." With that being said, she helped me stand up with a little bit of sobs in her eyes.

"You know what*cough* Martin?" He puts on a confused face while I'm saying that in Rias' arms to help me stand my ground. Rias, too had confused the moment I said that.

"You should've killed me earlier."

[Juggernaut Drive!]

I dashed towards Martin with all I've got. But as expected, I recieved a light-spear attack to my face. I quickly dodge it by ducking and still dashing towards Martin's groin.

He seems to not know where am I because of the smoke made by the light-spear. Lucky me, I can still see his private areas in gold-ish red. So I prepared my fist, and proceeded to punch him in his groin.

"KHUAAAAAHH!" He screams in great pain while he flew up in the air with my gauntlet below him.

This is the moment, partner!
[Aye!]

[Longinus Smasher!]

[SWOOOOSSSHHHH !]

"NOOOOOO! ARRRGGHHH!" He exclaimed between explosions that were occured from my chest.

[SWOOOOSHHHH!]

The beam from my chest kept going in mid-air and keeps striking his now bare back.

Moment by moment, while the beam keeps burning him to ashes. I can see the gold-ish red area began to spread to his entire body. I took that as 'blindspot-all-over-his-body' sign. So rocketed above the pale-skinned man and readied my finishing blow.

Who gives a fuck if I pass out.

Then, I directed my last blow at his chest. All I can hear before my last touch is "No.. This can't be—"

"HIIKEEEN!"

[Crush! BLAAOOOWW!]

He was sent to the ground at maximum speed.

I landed right next to him with an exhausted face. When I look at his now dead body, I saw his chest has a perfect hole on it, surrounded by exflated lungs and blood.

I.. won.

Rias rushes to me with a joyful teary face that I've never seen it before. She looks at me with teary eyes and prevented me from collapsing to the ground by hugging me.

Soon, I felt an immense lack of strength as my Grand Lethal scale mail overused and unequipped immediately.

Ddraig.. Unequip.. Step Nine before it hurts me to death.

I felt my sight coming back to normal, I can see my own bare palms that groped Rias' breasts. I can see my—

What is that?

Apparently, Rias has been crying happily on top of my head, so I can feel her warm tears on my hair...

"You.. did it... Ise.. My Ise.."

"Yes.." I looked her deep in the eyes. "I... succeeded to protect you?"

She answered with burying her face into one of my shoulders, and started crying uncontrollably.

"I think I'm going to pass out.. Rias.." "No! Ise! Stay with me!"

She keeps saying encouragement and keeps her tears flowing while I started to fall unconscious—

Moments later...

...

[-eep]
[beep]
[beep]

I woke up in a hospital which I do not know where. Maybe in the Gremory Territory or in Lilith. It's already nighttime. My head feels slightly dizzy, but I thought,

I'd bear with this.

I started to look around my surroundings.

There was Rias who has her head on the hospital bed, both of her arms as a pillow while she is sleeping in her new school uniform. I, was in a typical hospital attire. Blue shirt with white dots.

She must've accompanied me while I'm unconscious.

I looked at the clock just to know it's 02.48 at midnight.

I must've fallen unconscious for more than 6 hours.
Ddraig?

Hey!
[...Kurrr...]

Oh. So Ddraig's asleep either. There's nothing in this room that made any sounds except the heart monitor.

Rias mumbles while sleeping.. "Nn..." With that, I patted her head to calm her down.

Apparently, I patted her head a little bit rough, so she opened her eyes.

"Nmm.." She rubs his eyes after lifting her head up the bed.

"I-i-Issei...?!" She seems surprised by my appearance. "Hu—Huwaaaa!" She hugs me tightly while I am yet to say a word. "Hey, don't cry. What's wrong..?" I asked, oblivious of what has happened.

"You know what's wrong! I thought you were not going to wake up! *sob*"

Just as soon after she said that, the door opened, revealing the other girls and Rias' brother. Sirzechs-sama.

"Isee!"
"Ha-hauuu! Ise-san!*sob*"
"Issei is alive!"
"... Senpai..."

Between hugs and kisses, I asked to Sirzechs-sama.

"Sirzechs..."
"What?" He replied.
"Why don't you help me back then...?!" I almost exclaimed in anger.
"First off, I, your friends and the other Yondai-Maous need to evacuate the citizens far from Lilith until it has been rebuilt. Second thing is, you might not want to get asked to leave from this hospital because you are yelling in it."

"You could've asked someone else to evacuate them! We nearly got killed! Damn! And where the hell is Emperor Diehauser, Sairaorg, and the others when the attack comes!?" I exclaimed again in whisper. "But you're strong enough to beat that guy, eh?"

DON'T CHANGE THE TOPIC! I sighed loudly for the rest of us to hear and said. "Next time, aid me. You know you're stronger than me."

He nodded and left the room. With that, I asked my girls. "How long have I been laying here? Asia? Akeno-san?" Rias then answered. "You have fallen unconscious for 3 days. But that doesn't matter because you're up now"

After saying that, she cuddles me tightly among Asia, Xenovia, Koneko, and Akeno.

It's a good way to say a good morning, eh?!

Later that day...

After we had done the heroic ceremonial, speeches, and stuff like that, I was finally be able to come home in one piece. It has been a long time since I didn't fight with such intensity.

"I am home..." I said loud enough for other residents to hear, that means my friends, my mother and my father. "Oh, you're home, Issei. Would you like some dinner?" Akeno-san offered me. I feel fatigued so I answered. "No, thanks, Akeno-san. I am really worn out today since I haven't fought such an opponent in a while." She understood and turned around to walk back into the kitchen. I, too, without any hesitation, walked upstairs to my own room.

Hoping I would get some sleep and after I take a hot shower, I opened the door.

I took off my clothes alone in this big room. Took off my blazer, shirt, and pants. Now I'm only in my underpants as I grabbed a towel and walked towards the bathroom afterwards.

Later, hot water drenched my body as I stood there in relieve of being my fatigue come off little by little.

[Slide...]

[...Munyuuu]

...!?

"R-R-Rias? What are you..." I said that as soon as I feel her bare breasts touch my toned back. "Mmm.. My Ise.." She comforts herself by hugging me closer to her. "—Rias... I'm tired..."

Apparently that didn't work. My statement barely mobillizes her from her current position. She rests her head on my neck. From the corner of my left eye, I can see her face is as red as her hair. "I can never thank you enough... Hyoudou Issei-kun." "Ri-Rias? Isn't it a man's job to protect all his dearest...?" I answered hesitatingly.

She just stood there with her red face on my lower neck. I turned around to embrace her. "Rias.. I know you wanted to do it... But I am tired tonight. So maybe later..."

B-but?!

Her face is just as same as the sauna incident ; when she indirectly asks me to call her by her name. "S-so you won't do it with me?" She had teary eyes and pouted cutely like a girl her age. "No.. I didn't say that... B-b-but... Err.."

She awaited for my answer with her hands still on my lower back and while we were wtill drenched in hot water. "I've been waiting a long time to do it after a big fight. But do you want to let me down?" She added.

I could do nothing but to let out a mere sigh.

"Fine." I kissed her with all I might, she yelped quite loudly, but no one will interrupt us having our quailty time. I inserted my tongue inside and pulled her cheeks closer with both of my hands.

"Mmn... Issei..." She moaned sweetly as I can feel her face heat up. Our salivas mixed together, just like our usual kiss. But this one somehow got a strange feeling. She took off my hands off her cheeks, but still managed to get our mouths connected. Then, she guided my left hand to her right breast and my right hand to her private areas. She flicked my right middle finger and thrusted it into her wet womanhood.

Knowing what I must do to pleasure my very girlfriend, I grinded it against her wet walls back and forth, making her moan between kisses. "Ria—Rias.. You are so... Mm.. Perfect..." I managed to state that between her soft moans and mine. I noticed that she blushed even more than before when I opened my eyelids. "Mnn! Ise! You're quite... Mmn.. flawless, eith—mmn!"

Our breathing got heavy time after time. I was eating her tongue wildly when she asked me to insert my wood inside. So I lifted her up and pinned her to the wall while she yelped again.

"Iyaan!" "Have you drank the potion, Rias...?" I said that between pants. "Y-yes, I have... Now please insert it in... Mmn..." I kissed her again while our body is still soaked by the hot water. Carrying her with my power, I directed my full erection into her wet walls of vagina.

She moaned softly by the time my head touches her pinkish pussy. I thrusted it a little bit forcefully, making her scream very loud in shock while she scratches my back because of the slight pain. But nonetheless, when she screams, she still put on an aroused face and her face is still blushing like crazy. I humped her against the wall back and forth also.

"Mmh! Aah! Ise! You're –IYAAN!" I somewhat hit her spot so she screamed loudly again. "Mm.. Rias... Your scent.. Is making me want to fuck you all night..." I said that while burying my face on her collarbone. I licked her skin which is still wet by the hot water and made her moan softly but seems satisfied.

"Iyaaaaaaaaaan~ Mm! Ise... You can screw me all night if you—Naaa!—want to.. Haa... I wouldn't... Mind.. AAHN!" She patted my head with her right hand caringly and lovingly. My licking continued to her neck and continued to kiss her there.

"Naaaaa! Ise! How did you get so romantic?! Ahn...Ahn..!" I stayed quiet at her question and proceeded to give more deep kisses to her neck while we both are drenched in sweat and hot water. "May I—mm—Give you hickeys, Rias? Mm..." "It's okay—Aahn!—Devils like us may get away with it in a short period—mmn!"

I decided to suck on her neck after she agreed to my plans. "Mmm! Ise! My body is going crazy—aaahn!" She pulled my head deeper to her neck while still being fucked by me. Moments of sweetness later, she screamed. "Ise! I can't take it! I'm about to let it out!" "Just in—mmn!—time. I am going to cum too!"

"Ise! Ise! Ise! Ise!" She shrieked my name each hump with a little bit panting and with her face thirsty for sex. By the time her body trembles, I immediately kissed her passionately to supress her screams and mine.

"MMMN!" "Hnn!" Her and I screamed inside each others' mouth. Then, I looked down. Our juices, the hot water which is still flowing, and our sweat is all mixed on the floor as I pulled out my dick. I broke the kiss with saliva trail between our temples hanging out. I asked her. "Let's have another go, shall we?" She nodded in agreement and said sweetly. "You can have me the way you want it..." and bit her lower lip seductively.

SHE'S SO INSANELY CUTE!

I lowered my head to suck her left breast, making her moan in surprise. "Iyaaan~ You're so naughty, my Ise.. Ufufu..."Her saying that is like a short-period viagra for me. So I got my erect manhood ready and—

"Ise?" She called me.
"Yes?"
"May I be in front of you now?" She asked cutely, asking to change position with me. So I lowered her legs down to the floor so she could stand. After I got locked by Rias against the wall, She rubbed my abs which tickles me.

"This body—" She puts both of her hands on my chest. "—Always got me want to cuddle you all night."

Without letting me go any further, she suddenly kissed me passionately and daringly insert her tongue inside my mouth. I competed her actions by hugging her into my direction and started another tongue-duel inside our mouths. I opened my eyes and saw her looking lewdly at me.

"Mm—Ise.." She moaned my name out. I looked down and directed my hard cock into her waiting wet vagina.

"Aaahn~" She moaned while biting my lower lip. "Ah yeah, Rias. You're so hot!" I complimented. She blushed even more and asked me to lift her. So I did it as before, lifting her thighs with both of my hands. I pumped back and forth, as before, making her scream my name out.

"Ise! Aan! Ise—Aaahn!" She's biting her own lower lip in pleasure. I clenched my teeth to endure all the screaming pleasure in me. Then, she patted my hair caringly while her head is slightly arched back. I, too moved my head lower and attempted to bite her right nipple.

"Ahn! Ise! Not that part—Iyaaaan~!" Just after she had complained at my actions, I hit her spot pretty hard. We can feel each others' body heat as we embraced lovingly and we both intended to not let go of each other.

To surpress her screams, I lifted my head and ate her mouth. "Ise! Is—Mm.." She closed her eyes by the time our lips touched. She squeezed my shoulders in pleasure with both of her hands, I, on the other hand, squeezed her firm buttocks while still lifting her.

Over than half an hour we humped each other, and I hit her spot with my cock-head several times and made her scream uncontrollably. "Ise!" She screamed my name besides my right ear. "I'm going to come again—mmn!" "Let's do it together!"

We weren't saying anything after that sentence I said. But we cummed our liquids in her tight inner walls.

"AAAHN! Isee!" Her head is completely thrown to the back, with her hair hanging it wetness of the hot water. "Argh! Rias! Ri—Rias..."

"Y-Y..Yes?" She blushed like crazy after I called her name and put her legs back to the bathroom floor, I pulled out my dick from her womanhood and kissed her without any words.

"You don't know how much I love—you.". She merely smiled after I stated. Her blush stayed the same colour, red as blood.

After cleaning ourselves and turned off the shower, we dried each other with towels and I carried her bridal-styled. "Kyaa! Wh-what are you doing, Ise?" She blushed again. "Bringing you to bed, what do you expect?" "Ah... You're so romantic..." Then, I switched off the lamp with my forehead because my hands were busy carrying Rias. "When do I ever not be romantic?" I lifted her higher and planted a kiss on her forehead. Then, I laid her on top of the blue bedsheet. The big was so big despite there are only the two of us. I then laid on her left and let her embrace me with us still blushing.

"Ise?" "Yes?" I answered spontaneously.
"Kiss me."

[Chu...]

"I love you, Rias." I stated before her.
"I love you too, Ise. Goodnight." She closed her eyes while still hugging me and while her breasts are still grinding with my right arm. She put her head on my right chest and we both started getting sleepy...
