Judan: Okay this is kind of another thing that I decided to do. Mostly because of something that the writer Shirou Fujiwara said in one of his stories.
Slayer: Okay I'm confused… I didn't read that one but what did he say?
Judan: He said that most DXD stories are pretty much just about some obscured guy from an OC devil clan always becoming as strong as a Maou straight off that bat. Or that there was some character that has an OC sacred gear with another heavenly level dragon in it, or maybe even a different longinus, or that they always become a devil if they're human. And even though I love my Void Emperor story, it does follow some of these tropes.
Shadow: Okay I think I can see where this is going now, so this story is something that doesn't follow those then?
Judan: Exactly our faithful evil mascot!
Shadow: Uh huh… so what's the plan this time?
Leon: The plan is for me to do what I do best while having an overbearing and overcomplicated over arc with side ones.
Slayer: Wait what?
Leon: Oh sorry is my terminology to advance for that pea sized intelligence of yours?
Shadow: Judan what have you done?!
Judan: So with that how about we let our newest member here end this comment section.
Slayer: I thought it was the author section?
Shadow: No it's the reviewer section.
Judan: We really need to just stick to one name… anyways let's end this before we scare off anyone else.
Leon: Alrighty then! Now we here at the Dark Guard productions own nothing but OC's and reality building concepts. Everything else belongs to their respective owners now without further ado…
Everyone: Here's the story!
Shadow: You know you never answered me.
Judan: And I will continue to do so!~

Chapter What? Let's just go backwards then!
Currently there were two men talking in a room that looked like some kind of office. One was a handsome young man with light blue eyes, and green hair that was slicked back. He also seemed to have a mysterious aura around him. He was wearing some kind of large battle cape with dark green robes underneath.
The other man was also young, having the appearance of a man in his early 20's with shoulder length crimson red hair and blue-green eyes. He himself was wearing a large clock with pointed pauldrons and he didn't look happy.
Then with a sigh the green haired man spoke. "We're way in over our heads here Sirzechs. Trihexa is now on the loose and I doubt anyone can beat that monster at this point. Even Shiva was useless against it. Really the only way we could possibly win now, is to somehow convince the Great Red to fight the apocalyptic beast in the dimensional gap."
Upon hearing his friends words Sirzechs scratched his chin before speaking. "Actually… there might be someone who could help. Granted he's definitely not as strong as Trihexa, but he has a good head on his shoulders, and is quite intelligent. I think it's about time that I finally gave him a call Ajuka." Ajuka could only raise an eyebrow before questioning him.
"And just why haven't we asked for his help before things got out of control?" Sirzechs chuckled lamely while scratching the back of his head. "You forgot about him didn't you?"
Sirzechs shook his head before answering. "No actually… it's just that he's very difficult to work with. Not that he doesn't work well with people though, oh no his issue is that barely anything actually grabs his attention. Most of the time he's hanging out with his girls or researching some obscured magic. Or he's traveling somewhere to find more things to study. Really he's a hard worker who wants to just discover things; he also wants to get stronger just to see how strong he can get." Ajuka rubbed his chin before speaking again.
"So… he's someone who's hard to get a hold of… loves to spend his time researching magic… and barely any of our issues actually catch his attention. Did I get that all right?" Sirzechs nodded his head before Ajuka continued. "Well I don't see any harm in trying to contact him; after all with the world itself at stake what do we have to lose?" Although he mumbled it under his breath, Ajuka swore he heard Sirzechs say their dignity. But before he could say anything Sirzechs clapped his hands and spoke again.
"Alright! I'll go make the call now; hopefully he's not too busy or doing anything. Trust me he gets rather cranky about being interrupted." As his friend then left the room Ajuka sighed before saying something to himself.
"Why do I have a bad feeling about this?"

Over in America three minutes later…
Inside a nice home all was quiet. "Rinnng! Rinnng!" Well until the phone started ringing of course. That's when a young man lying in his bed with seven others grumbled angrily.
"It's four in the blasted morning… who could be calling us so darn early!" Sighing he looked at his companions before somehow teleporting out of bed. And though he was shirtless he very quickly put on a bathrobe before going to the phone. Once he picked it up he didn't even try to hide his displeasure. "This better be about someone dead or dying, and who is leaving me a bunch of cash and or magical artifacts and books."
Over on the other side the young man heard a sigh before a familiar voice spoke. "Sorry Cutler but this is just Sirzechs, but this is quite important."
"Cutler" Raised an eyebrow before questioning his acquaintance. "What did your sister decide that she's had enough of your sister complex? And then decided to hit you with a blast of destruction in your face?"
"Ah… no… It's something else thank Maou for that. But still this is quite bad, you see… THE WORLDS ABOUT TO END!" Cutler blinked for a couple of seconds before speaking again.
"Oh is that all? Wow you really worry about these things too much. Seriously do you know how many earth ending events, have almost happened in the last ten years alone? What's so different about this one?"
Sirzechs groaned before speaking again. "Yes I realize that… but this time an apocalyptic beast is going to destroy everything! And the Great Red will more than likely want to fight it, so there also that to worry about. Really do you know how disastrous it will be if two apocalyptic entities fight like that?!" For once Cutler sounded concerned as he spoke.
"Yeah I know, so what do you want me to do about it? I can't even fight Ophis let alone the Great Red."
Sirzechs spoke in agreement at that. "Yes that is true, but maybe you can come up with something. A seal maybe or some kind of weapon that can help us, or maybe you can even rediscover something? Anyways it doesn't matter we just need your help in any way that you can provide it." Cutler sighed before nodding his head in agreement.
"Well I can certainly try, but I will be compensated for this right?" He heard Sirzechs groan before receiving an answer.
"The world might end… and you want to be compensated?"
Cutler just smirked from his end. "Yep!~" He said popping the P before continuing. "Besides you're a devil surely you can understand wanting to get paid for your services. And besides I have a feeling that even without me you'd figure out something to do. So why work for no pay?"
Sirzechs made a noise before answering him. "Ugh… Fine you have a deal. So you want the usual compensation?"
Cutler answered with a grin. "That and little bit extra, such as a set of unused evil pieces, a highly enchanted demonic sword, five hundred grand, and twenty more magical tomes from your library than usual. After all this time, I'm helping you save the world so my reward should reflect that right?"
"Uhhh…." Cutler just waited patiently while Sirzechs got his bearings. Eventually the man cracked. "Fine! You have yourself a deal, and I can only assume that you want your payment before you start working?" That last part was meant as a joke but unfortunately Cutler took it seriously.
"You got it!~ After all I want to have a chance to read through them, just in case the world ends before I start working. Anyways I'll expect my stuff within a week goodbye!~" He just hung up the house phone before sighing "Sheesh… you think he'd be able to solve his own problems by now. I still remember him wanting me to create that fake invite thing."
The young man then yawned and moved back over to his room, where he smiled happily at the seven still sleeping soundly. Then taking off his robe he teleported back in. As he laid there he contemplated everything that had happened up till this point.
Well while my life hasn't been a walk in the park, I can say that I've at least found happiness. He then closed his eyes and fell back to sleep.

Two men were seen in a room while one was closing a book. They were both sitting in leather chairs that looked rather spendy. They were also both sitting directly in front of each other. To their left was a fire place with flames that kept changing color. Black, white, blue, red, yellow, and even green. The order of the colors was random, though it did shine an interesting light on the room which seemed to be a miniature library.
Still the two men shrouded their faces in darkness. The one without the book wore a black hooded robe the covered him entirely, while the one with the book wore the same thing only white. However you could see they were wearing leather combat boots, and leather gloves.
Eventually after some silence the one in black spoke. "That's it? That can't be all, especially since the book didn't really say anything about whom or what he was." At his questioning the other man chuckled before speaking.
"Of course that's not the end. But this is a book about someone's life. Told in sequential order, but if you want to know the beginning that will have to wait. After all those watching deserve a chance to guess at what might've been, and what might be." At his words the man in black, crossed his legs while putting a black gloved hand to his cheek.
When he spoke again he sounded bored. "I see… But you have to admit that this might just confuse our watchers as much as it confused me." The man in white only laughed while waving him off. And eventually when he had himself under control he spoke with amusement.
"Oh I assure you this was only meant to peak their curiosity. After all while this world has had many iterations of itself made. Only a select few ever truly manage to make a great story. But that's life; even the ones who created us have tried to make other versions even before this one. And though they are good, and they love them, they also understand that a writer must try to do better." The man then held the book up again before continuing. "This is another try of theirs. And I'm looking forward to it."
Putting his hand down the man in black sighed before speaking. "You have proven your point, but still what do you think our watchers make of us? After all we are quite different ourselves. But I suppose they will tell our own creators what they think in due time. Still why don't you read from the beginning now?"
The man in white shook his head. "No… we simply don't have the time at this moment. Besides a prologue always has to be made and as we are characters in our own story… we must abide by what our own stories have become. As such as we speak our own books are being filled out, strange as we read this book only to find ourselves being written to read it."
At his words the man in black sighed in disappointment before crossing his arms. "A shame then… I was hoping to have more time, and I was hoping to find out a little bit more about this Cutler." At his words the man in white chuckled sardonically. This only seemed to anger the other. "Did I say something funny?" At his question the one in white waved his hand in apology.
"Forgive me, but I only now realized that we've made a mistake. Although you and our watchers will have to see it for yourself. Although it technically isn't a mistake, only a confusing bit of info which will be explained later." At his words the man in black relaxed with a sigh.
Then when he spoke again he sounded bored again. "Well if you say so, still what do you make of this book? After all it seems as if you've already read it." The man in white shrugged before answering his companion.
"What I think doesn't matter, what matters is what you and the watchers think." The man then stretched before making the book disappear in blue light. After that he stood up while talking. "Well I think that's all for today than. So how about you join me for some dinner? We can always continue the book tomorrow after all. Because as you know as long as the story is interesting to one person, the book will never truly end." Shaking his head the man in black stood up while stretching out his own back.
"Fine but I hope that the next bit, the true beginning will be longer that we read now. I'm sure the watchers can agree with me on that point." As the man in white proceeded to leave the room he chuckled before replying.
"Oh that's not up to me to decide, although I do believe it will be. Now then how about some soup? I found an interesting recipe for Pho."

Judan: And that's all!
Shadow: What the heck was this?
Slayer: I don't know but I kind of like it.
Leon: Yeah… although next chapter will have more me in it right? After all my legendary power must be shown to the world!
White: Only if you do become legendary.
Black: What he said. Though your cryptic-ness will need some work.
White: Ah I guess you're right, but it should do for now.
Slayer: Just who are these guys anyway Judan?
Judan: Oh no one important, at least not yet.
Shadow: What do you mean by that?
Judan: Hey you have Modaga, Maxos, and the Outsider! I just want two Omni Individuals as well!
White: Calm down this is nothing to get worked up over.
Black: Well maybe it is… At any rate we should probably end this at this moment.
Shadow: Oh fine… so which one of you wants to end this?
Black: I guess I will since White had more lines than I did. Now this had been a Dark Guard production now signing off!
Everyone: Goodbye!
