Here's the next chapter! Enjoy!
Issei just stood there, frozen that she even heard a question like that come out of Xenovia's mouth. The blue-haired female looked slightly confused. "Did you not hear me the first time?" she asked her. "Do you know any man that can make a baby with me?"
"Why did you even ask a question like that?" the brown-haired female asked, still processing the fact that she asked a question like that to her.
Xenovia sighed and closed her eyes. "In the past, I had a dream, a raison d'être-that I shall devote my life serving God. Unfortunately..." She paused to open her eyes and look at Issei. "I lost all of it. So I asked President Rias for advice. She said that I should live the way I wanted to." She crossed her arms. "That's why I decided to give myself a new womanly objective: to give birth to a baby."
Issei could only sweat-drop when she heard that. Never met a girl that wanted to give birth... she thought.
"I may have no experience with men, but I could try to keep up and be perfect," the former exorcist continued. "You can help me by pairing me up with a guy and giving me your best sexual knowledge."
The female pervert began to tense up. Give her sexual knowledge?! She giggled nervously and asked, "Why would you want me to give you sexual knowledge? I'm still a virgin. And why can't you ask anyone else if they knew a guy you can have sex with?"
"Asia-chan told me that you watch special sexual movies and read special sexual books in your free time."
Issei froze in shock. A-Asia-chan saw my secret yaoi and eroge collection?! Damn it!
"Also, I have asked everyone else, but they only gave me strange looks, saying no. So I wonder if you do, Issei-chan."
"Uh...well..." The female pervert trailed off, going into thought. A man I can pair Xenovia-chan with...hmm... Matsuda and Motohoma then appeared in her head. Those two assholes? She imagined an image of Xenovia, Matsuda, and Motohoma in chibi form. There were arrows above Xenovia's head, one pointing at Matsuda, the other at Motohoma. Err...if I do pair one or the other with her, the other will get jealous... She then thought of the two chibi men fighting in a fighting cloud. Maybe she'll be up for a threesome between the two? Hearts were seen between Xenovia and a very happy Matsuda and Motohoma. They might leave me and Aika-chan alone. But then, either way, they're going to brag a lot about her to us, making us feel jealous that they're no longer virgins and are in a relationship...even though I'm in one. An annoyed chibi Issei and chibi Aika appeared while the two male perverts were bragging, holding Xenovia. Yeah, no. I got nobody else either.
She looked at Xenovia and shook her head. "Sorry, Xenovia-chan, but I don't."
The blue-haired devil nodded at her. "Understood, Issei-chan. Sorry about wasting your time."
She shook her head. "It's fine." She crossed her arms. "But, are you into any type of man, Xenovia-chan?"
Xenovia went into thought, then answered, "I like any man with praiseworthy latent potential because I want my child to be special."
Yeah, definitely not those perverted losers... the brown-haired girl thought. Praiseworthy latent potential? "Can you clarify that?"
She nodded. "If you were a man, Issei-chan, I would make babies with you because you would have latent potential after the battle with Kokabiel and you have a dragon's aura. I would like my child to be strong and have strong genes."
Issei sweat-dropped at the example. At least she clarified. However, the White Dragon Emperor popped into her head. Xenovia's description perfectly fitted him. However, she doubted that he likes her since, after all, he's the White Dragon Emperor while she was the Red Dragon Empress, meaning that they're rivals, so he can't really join Rias's peerage. "Right...well, I'll see you later, Xenovia-chan." She waved goodbye at her and left the bathroom.
Xenovia herself only watched her leave. She looked down and frowned, thinking about getting a guy she wanted to make babies with. I hope to get one soon... she thought. But how...?
Back in the clubroom later, everyone was dressed and was doing their own thing. Kiba sat next to Issei, holding her hand. He was sweat-dropping as well as her. "I still can't believe Xenovia-chan would ask you that," he said to her.
"I'm still processing that fact myself..." she replied to him, nervously giggling.
Xenovia, who was sitting across from the couple, said to the two, "You were the only one I could go to after everyone else said no, Issei-chan." The two lovers turned to her. "It would also be indecent of me to ask you if I can make babies with Kiba-kun. He is your boyfriend, after all."
The couple continued to sweat-drop. "Indecent, indeed..." they muttered at the same time.
"Excuse me, everyone," said a male, unfamiliar (to Issei) voice. Everyone stopped what they were doing, stood up, and looked at a white magic circle. Sirzechs and Grayfia appeared out of it as it disappeared. "Are you holding some kind of event?" Sirzechs asked with a smile. Rias looked shocked at the sight of him.
"Onii-sama?!" she exclaimed.
Issei gasped before kneeling down to him as well as Yuuto, Akeno, and Koneko. Asia looked blessed at the sight of him. That's her brother?! she thought. The Overlord?! He looks like if President-san was male! He looked at her.
"You're Asia Argento, correct?" he asked her.
She nodded. "Y-yes!"
"Thanks for taking care of Rias. I heard you are a talented bishop."
The blonde-haired female looked bashful. "I-I'm not that t-"
Sirzechs chuckled. "Relax. I'm not here on official business."
Asia sighed. "Right..."
"What?" asked Rias.
"So you're an Overlord?" asked Xenovia. "I'm Xenovia."
"Good day to you, Xenovia," he greeted. "I couldn't believe my ears when I heard that Durendal's wielder was in my little sister's peerage."
"I never really thought I would go out on a limb and become a devil. In all honesty, I still regret it once in a while." She looked away and began thinking out loud. "That's right...why did I become a devil? Was it out of desperation? Wait, what?" She looked at Sirzechs, who was laughing a little.
"I love how my sister has a fun peerage," he said. "Xenovia, please offer the Gremory family your support."
She nodded at him. "It is a request from Lucifer, the legendary Overlord. I cannot refuse." She closed her eyes, keeping her solemn face. "I'll do what I can."
"Thank you." He then looked at both Yuuto and Issei. "I also like that there's a bit of romance between my sister's pieces." Both of them smiled and blushed a little.
"That aside, why ARE you here?" asked the red-haired female.
"What are you talking about?" he replied. "Isn't class observation soon?"
She tensed up when she heard that last question. "D-don't tell me-"
He only casually smiled at her. "I'd like to watch my little sister doing her best in school up close."
She looked at Grayfia in disbelief. "You told him about this, Grayfia?!" The grey-haired woman only looked down with her eyes closed.
"Don't worry about it," Sirzechs said to Rias. "Father's coming too."
She looked at him in disbelief. "You're an Overlord, you know that?" She looked down, embarrassed. "Why would you abandon your post for this?"
"Oh no, this also counts as work," he answered, making her look up at him. "We were actually thinking about holding the leaders' summit in this academy." Everyone looked surprised at that piece of news.
"H-here?! In Kuoh Academy?!" the Ruin Princess questioned. To Issei, it sounded as if she didn't want him to come. Why was that?
"I'm glad my sister isn't causing any trouble," Sirzechs said to Issei's parents. He, along with Rias, Issei, and Asia, were in Issei's home later in the night. Sirzechs was holding a glass of beer while Mr. Hyoudou was holding a bottle. Mrs. Hyoudou was coming to them with a plate of food.
"Oh, don't say that!" Mrs. Hyoudou spoke. "Rias is such a nice girl!"
"Yes! She's also been a good sisterly figure to Issei!" Mr. Hyoudou added. "Here, have another drink."
The red-haired man held his empty cup to him, making him pout more beer into it. "Thank you, sir," he said to him.
Issei, who was standing up next to Asia, who was sitting on a lounge chair, sweat-dropped and sighed. "That's an Overlord, dad..." she muttered quietly so he wouldn't hear her.
"I-ignorance is bliss, people say," Asia said to her, sweat-dropping a little.
"Why did you tell him to stay here...?" Rias asked Issei.
She looked at her. "It's no big deal. He did say he'll find a hotel tomorrow."
She looked away and blushed a little, looking embarrassed. "So embarrassing..." she muttered to herself. The female pervert only heard it and looked slightly confused. She never had a sibling, only Asia and Rias, despite them having different blood, so she didn't know why she was embarrassed.
...
In her bedroom, Issei was laying in her bed, the bedsheets covering her and her eyes open, staring at the ceiling. She looked at Sirzechs, who was sleeping on the ground with only a blanket and a pillow. He does look a bit handsome... she thought. But Yuuto-kun's more handsome anyway. She also felt bad for making him sleep like that. He was an Overlord, after all.
"Sorry..." she said to him.
"For what?" he replied, his eyes still closed.
"For making an Overlord like you sleep like that..."
He chuckled a little at her and opened his eyes to look at her. "I'm actually grateful for this." She looked at him with a puzzled look. "Nobody in the Underworld treats me like a normal guest. And they shouldn't. This makes me feel more at ease than a grand reception would."
Is that really how that works? she thought.
"Plus, I haven't seen Rias enjoying herself a lot," he continued. "It's all thanks to you."
She nervously giggled and smiled at him. "Oh no, I didn't really do anything," she replied to him in a bashful voice.
"Hyoudou Issei-chan. Please take care of Rias."
She nodded at him as she stood up and faced him from the bed. "I will, sir. Don't worry. I'm Presi-Lady Rias Gremory's pawn, after all."
He sat up as well, continuing to make eye contact with her. "Thank you. Do you mind if I call you Issei-chan as well?"
She gasped and shook her head. "No, of course not! I'd be honored, actually!" She really did feel honored to have an Overlord call her by her name.
He smiled at her. "Then, Issei-chan, can you call me by my name too?"
She shot back. "E-eh?!"
He chuckled. "You can call me your brother, if you'd like to."
She nervously giggled once more and replied, "I can't. You're asking too much. Can I just have the pleasure of calling you Sirzechs-sama?"
He nodded at her once more. "Very well. I also heard you've met Azazel, Issei-chan?"
She nodded at him. "Y-yes. I think he was after my Boosted Gear."
His face turned solemn. "I see. Azazel has a very strong interest in Sacred Gears. Unlike Kokabiel though, he's no warmonger. It was the fallen angels that pulled out of the last war first, after all. Apparently, Azazel sentenced Kokabiel to eternal freezing."
Well, that son of a bitch deserved it, she thought. But still... "Why? I mean, does he want to make me his servant? What am I going to do if he brainwashes me somehow?!"
He smiled casually at her once again. "Don't worry. I can guarantee your safety."
She smiled back at him. "Thank you so much, Sirzechs-sama!"
"The legendary dragon is on our side, after all." He paused before suddenly suggesting, "How about we change topics?"
She looked confused on why he would want to change topics. "Excuse me?"
"I've heard you're very perverted when it comes to men. Is that true?" he asked her.
She blushed very hard. "Wh-what?!" Why the hell would a man like Sirzechs ask her something like that?! She looked away from him and nodded. "Y-yeah. I guess President already told you?"
He laughed a little. "She did. I've never heard of a girl so perverted in my life." She nervously giggled. "Are you thinking perverted thoughts about me?"
She blushed very hard. She hadn't, even though he brought it up. She sighed and frowned. "No. I'm trying not to think of other men that way now that I have a boyfriend. It'd be indecent of me to do so." She smiled lecherously. "All of my perverted thoughts are now filled with him."
Sirzechs laughed. "Alright. I was wondering. I am married, after all." He paused again, then asked, "You are dating that Knight, correct?"
She looked at him. "Yuuto-kun? Yeah, though we've been in a relationship for about two days now."
"Cherish the relationship, Issei-chan. After hearing about his past by Rias, he needs someone like you."
She smiled at him once more. "I already do and I'm sure he does as well. We both promise to protect each other."
"Cherish that promise as well." He face turned solemn when he said, "You might never know when you'll lose each other." Issei tensed up when he said that. What did he mean by that? His smile returned as he laid back down on his floor bed. "Good night, Issei-chan." He closed his eyes and went back to sleep.
You'll never know when you'll lose each other? the brown-haired female thought. What the hell does that mean? She looked down at him. She didn't want to wake him up to find out, so the thought clouded her mind. L-losing Yuuto-kun? She shook her head. No! I won't let that happen! I'll protect Yuuto-kun as he'll do to me. We won't lose each other! She placed her fist where her heart was. I promise, Yuuto-kun. I promise. She smiled. As well as protecting him, I'll also protect the rest of the peerage, especially Rias and Asia-chan. They are practically sisters to me, after all. She sighed and laid down on her bed, beginning to sleep.
The next morning, Issei was dressed in the Kuoh girls' uniform and was yawning. Even though she slept, what Sirzechs said still clouded her mind as if it didn't want to leave.
"I spent all night thinking about it that I barely got any sleep," Sirzechs said to Rias and Grayfia. He probably wasn't talking about what he said to the female pervert.
Issei began thinking, Cherish the relationship and the promise, huh? I already do, but I guess that's the Overlord's advice. I'll follow it to the end of my days! She had a determined look on her face, making Asia, who was standing next to her, look at her with a puzzled face.
Rias turned to the girls and stated, "I'll be showing my brother around town, so I'll be late."
Sirzechs smiled. "Then I'll see you during class observation, Issei-chan, Asia Argento-chan." The two girls smiled back as the two siblings left.
"Take care!" Asia said to them.
"Let's go, Asia-chan." The blonde-haired girl nodded as they both headed to the building Xenovia was staying in.
...
The two girls waited outside of the place where the former exorcist was staying for a while. "Xenovia-chan sure is late, isn't she?" Issei asked Asia.
"She said that she'll be pulling an all-nighter to brush up on her kanji skills," the former nun told her. "I'll go pick her up, so you can go ahead, Issei-san."
"Sure." She smiled at her as she walked inside. The brown-haired devil thought, I'm glad they broke the ice with each other.
"Good morning, Issei-chan," greeted...Yuuto's voice. She gasped and looked behind her to see her boyfriend carrying a suitcase. She smiled at the sight of him and walked up to him.
"Good morning, Yuuto-kun," she greeted back as she gave his lips a quick kiss. "Do you mind walking with me to school?"
He shook his head at her. "I wouldn't at all," he replied as he grabbed her hand gently. She blushed at his touch. "Let's go."
She smiled and nodded at him. "Y-yeah!" They both then began walking to school together.
...
As they arrived in school, the couple caught the eye of many, especially the girls. They were aghast at the sight of them holding hands, becoming way too jealous about Issei holding Yuuto's hand.
"Nooooooooo!" shouted some girls.
"Why her, Kiba-kun?!" shouted others.
"Are they really together?!" Murayama exclaimed, her jaw dropped to the ground.
"That means that she isn't really a lesbian!" added Katase, who was crying.
Both Issei and Yuuto sweat-dropped. "Be glad that I'm not..." the female pervert muttered. If she were a perverted lesbian, she'd be quite the annoyance to the girls in the school.
"Kiba-kuuuun! Are you dating her?!" a girl asked.
"Hehe, yes, I am," he answered her.
"Wh-WHAT?! Does she do perverted things to you?!" another girl asked.
"Er, not really..."
Soon, he was stormed by questions from many girls, much to Issei's annoyance. She knew that them being together would spark much attention, but not THIS MUCH attention! However, seeing the annoyed look on her face, Yuuto told all the girls, "That's enough. Can you leave us be?"
The girls groaned in sadness and frowned. "B-b-but-" stuttered Murayama and Katase.
"You can ask me more questions later, ladies. But right now, we need some space, so go to your classes." The girls reluctantly obeyed him and began to leave the couple alone. All were grumbling, however, especially Murayama and Katase.
Issei sighed in relief. "Thank goodness that's over," she said in a relieved tone.
Yuuto chuckled a little. "I didn't think it spark much controversy among the girls in this school."
"It's no surprise though. You're the school's male flirt after all..."
"But you know that none of those girls would ever steal me away from you."
She looked up at him and smiled. "Yeah, you're right about that. And no man would ever steal me from you." She looked away, sweat-dropping a little. "That is, if any man's attracted to me..."
"I'm attracted to you, Issei-chan." He let his free hand touch her cheek. She blushed and leaned into his hand.
I'm so happy that I can walk to school with Yuuto-kun now! she thought in glee. I mean, sometimes I go alone or with Aika, but now, it's a blessing, since I love him and he loves me. I'm actually going ahead in my life!
Suddenly, her left arm pulsed violently, causing her to gasp, lose her blush, and hold onto it. Yuuto looked very worried. "Issei-chan! Are you alright?!" he asked, putting his hands on her shoulders.
"I..." she began before looking at him in the eyes again. "I'm fine, I think..." What had caused her arm to pulse though?
"How sweet, how sappy," said an unfamiliar male voice. The female looked at where the voice came from and widened her eyes. Yuuto got his hands off of her and turned to see a handsome young man with spiky silver hair and a dark-colored outfit looking at the two, leaning near the entrance to the school. Both were shocked and confused to see him, thinking, Who is he? He stopped leaning near the entrance and walked to them...or specifically, Issei.
"This is our second meeting," he said to her. "Welsh Dragon-Hyoudou Issei." The couple went into a defensive stance. They do not know this guy and he doesn't look that friendly either. "My name is Vali, the English Dragon. The Vanishing Dragon, in other words." Both the lovers' eyes widened.
English... Yuuto thought.
Dragon? Issei thought as well. "You're the-" she began to ask before her hand and arm pulsed violently again, causing her to grunt.
"Issei-chan!" cried out her boyfriend.
My left arm feels like it's going to explode! she thought worriedly. Why here?! Why now?! Suddenly, she felt a shift in the air, causing her tense up and see Vali pointing a finger at her head. Yuuto had the Sword of the Betrayer out and under Vali's chin, giving him an angry glare.
"What are you trying to pull?" he asked the silver-haired male coldly.
"The fact that she is defenseless," he replied, sounding scornful. "As expected from a little girl like her." She blushed a little, but gritted her teeth and stepped back from him.
"That is not funny," Yuuto stated in a cold tone.
"I wasn't trying to be, Welsh Dragon's Knight in Shining Armor. What if I used some magic-"
Issei gasped and readied her left arm for combat. Yuuto gripped on the grip of his sword and put the blade a little more up to Vali's chin. Another blade joined his at that-Durandel. Both saw that Xenovia was there with a cold look on her face to him.
"We can't let you have a showdown with the Welsh Dragon here, English Dragon," she said to the silver-haired man.
"Issei-san!" Asia called out as she ran and stopped next to her "sister".
She gestured the blonde-haired girl to stop. "Stay away, Asia-chan," she said to her.
Vali smirked at the two Knights. "Quit while you're ahead," he said. "If you guys can't beat Kokabiel..." He paused to look at them both. "You would have no chance against me." The two sword wielders looked very pissed off at him. "Still, if you don't care about the fact that we're in public, you can stay like this as long as you want." Feeling defeated, the two lowered their swords, made them disappear, and stood next to Issei, Yuuto holding her hand. The silver-haired male looked at the female pervert. "Hyoudou Issei."
"What?" she replied coldly.
"Where would you rank yourself in this world's power rankings?" She looked at him with a puzzled face. "Your Balance Breaker is still incomplete. However, it would rank somewhere in four digits." He paused to hold four of his fingers up. "Between 1,000 and 1,500, I would say. But, I guess its hosts specs would drag it further down, especially since she's in a romantic relationship with someone."
The couple looked pissed off at him, Yuuto holding Issei's hand tightly. "What the hell's your point?" she asked Vali.
"Hyoudou Issei is a valuable existence." He then said to Yuuto in a mocking tone, "Treat her well, lover of Hyoudou Issei." The blonde-haired man only looked more pissed off at him. "And raise her well, Rias Gremory."
The couple's eyes widened as they turned back to see Rias, Akeno, and Koneko, all looking mad at the presence of Vali. "President?" they asked.
"English Dragon..." the crimson-haired female said as she and the other girls walked to the Pawn's side, Rias standing in front and crossing her arms. "What are you playing at? You have ties with the fallen angels, so if you make excessive contact-"
Vali smirked at her. "The Welsh Dragon and the Vanishing Dragon are called the 'Two Heavenly Dragons'. Nobody who has either one of those dragons or got involved in them lived decent lives. I wonder how it will go for you..." Rias glared daggers at him. He then looked at Yuuto. "And you as well." The pretty boy gritted his teeth at him as well as glaring daggers at him. Everyone glared daggers at him.
"I didn't come here to fight," the White Dragon Emperor noted as he began to walk past the peerage. "I am too busy for that." Everyone watched him leave. The most pissed off of the bunch was Issei, Yuuto, and Rias. To Issei, he may be handsome (not as handsome as Yuuto), but he was an arrogant asshole. Yuuto didn't want him anywhere near Issei due to his arrogance and the fact that he's dangerous, considering what he and everyone else witnessed during the Kokabiel incident. The same reason was with Rias as well. Yuuto only squeeze Issei's hand tighter while Rias patted her shoulder to make her relieved. She felt the sweat on her hand. She knew why. Her hands were sweating from that as well, her lover noticing it, knowing why as well.
