The Son of The True Satan
Chapter 3:
It has been 4 weeks since Issei started school in Kuoh. Four weeks since he met way too many "Obnoxious" devils. Four weeks since Issei got engaged. But in these 4 weeks he got to know the "Obnoxious" devils a lot more. He wasn't exactly friends with any of them just… Acquaintances. The only one he could really say he was on friendly terms with was Sona, only because he was basically forced to considering they were "Engaged". But no matter how Obnoxious they were… he couldn't help but admit that he was having a little fun. Not that he would tell anyone that though.
But we now see Issei sitting in the Occult Research Clubroom sipping on his tea as elegantly as always. But to the normal eye it would seem as Issei had nothing to worry about at the moment. But sadly… Issei could only wish… Something Issei was always good at was reading emotions and telling how people felt just by looking at somebody or talking to them. And right now, that ability was starting to piss him off. Rias was sitting on her desk gloomy, depressed, and desperate. Issei already asked if she was okay a few times but every time he got the same answer like "I'm fine" "It's nothing don't worry about it" or something of the sort. And now he was starting to get pissed off.
And while Issei was reading his book and drinking his tea a Gremory magic circle appeared on the floor revealing the same brunette maid from a few weeks ago.
"Miss Rias, Lord Riser is going to be here momentarily." The maid said shocking Rias completely.
"What?! Why?!" Rias yelled as she composed herself.
"He said he wishes to see how his future wife is faring." The maid told the Red Head.
"Ugh… That bastard…" Rias said as she summoned a magic circle and called her peerage to the clubroom, completely forgetting about Issei.
Once everyone got there the rooms mood tensed to extreme levels.
"Oh, Issei I forgot you were here… You may lea-." Rias started to say once she noticed him again only to be interrupted by a flaming magic circle.
"Ah Rias! You look as lovely as ever!" A blonde-haired man exclaimed as he appeared out of the magic circle.
"Riser…" Rias scoffed.
"Rias… Is that anyway to greet your' Fiancé" Riser said adding extra emphasis to the Fiancé part.
"Fiancé my ass… You just want me as a play thing." Rias shot back.
"It doesn't matter what you think I want, you are my Fiancé I plan to go by our parent's wishes." Riser explained.
"Yeah right…"
"Excuse me?" Riser asked offended.
"You heard me you couldn't care less what your' parent's wishes are." Rias said.
"I'll let you know I respect my parent's and stand by them!" Riser yelled.
"Well good for you! But! For no reason once so ever! Will I marry you!" Rias yelled back.
"Well that's too bad! Because you have to no matter what! The devil council have already planned a date for the wedding and set up everything! The only way out is to leave the devil society!" Riser exclaimed.
"Well then I guess I have to leave the devil society!" Rias said knowing full well what she just said.
"Wait just a minute Lady Rias. You cannot just say that. What would your' parents think!?" The maid exclaimed.
"It doesn't matter! It's my life not theirs! They cannot push their ideals unto me!" Rias yelled.
"TO THINK YOU WOULD GO AS FAR AS TO LEAVE THE DEVIL SOCIETY JUST TO GET OUT OF A MARRIAGE WITH ME?!" Riser bellowed as flames started to erupt around him.
"YOU DO REALIZE I HOLD THE PRIDE OF THE PHENEX RIGHT?!" Riser yelled again.
"To hell with your' pride… you lost that long ago…" Rias said.
"I can't believe you are insolent to say something like that… I SHOULD BURN EVERYONE IN HERE!" Riser yelled as flames surrounded his fist and sent a fist towards Kiba who was standing behind him by the door.
"Kiba!" Multiple voices yelled worriedly.
As the flame covered fist launched towards Kiba, Issei immediately moved in front of him and caught the flaming fist before it could cause anyone any harm.
"Please don't harm anyone here… It would make you look much worse in front of Miss Rias over there. And as of right now you're going to need a lot of help." Issei said without emotion as the sleeve of his blazer burnt off and his skin started to burn.
Riser snapped out of his trance from seeing Issei and asked. "Who are you?"
"Issei Satan." Issei told the Phenex as his skin started to melt off his arm revealing muscles and veins. But Issei didn't even flinch through the whole ordeal.
"Riser! Let go of him!" Rias yelled at the Phenex before he could answer.
Riser looked down to see what Rias was talking about and saw Issei's fore arm and hand completely burnt down to the muscle and quickly pulled his fist back.
"D-Do you feel no pain?" Riser asked Issei still shocked that Issei showed no emotion or any hint of pain.
"No… I lost the right to feel pain long ago." Issei explained as darkness was clearly visible in his eyes.
"I see…"
"Issei! Are you okay?!" Rias yelled as she rushed towards him.
"Yes, I'm fine… Now I will be taking my leave it looks like this is your' business not mine." Issei said as he grabbed his bag and walked towards the door.
"Okay…" Rias said not knowing what to say.
"Rias…" Issei said as he opened the door.
"Yes?"
"Do you truly not wish to marry Riser?" Issei asked as he tilted his head back towards Rias.
"No…" Rias answered timidly. Normally Riser would rebuke from hearing this but he was as speechless as everyone else.
"Very well…" Issei said as he left.
It was silent for a minute once Issei left. Once again, they were left speechless because of Issei.
"Who was that Rias?" Riser asked.
"Just as he said… Issei Satan…"
"Who is he? No normal human, devil, or any supernatural being is like that…" Riser explained.
"He is… An 'Anomaly'…" Rias said still staring at the door Issei left from.
"…"
"Well… Let's get back to business." The maid declared.
"Yes… Let us…" Riser said clearly not as motivated as when he first arrived.
(With Issei)
As Issei walked back to his apartment he wasn't in the best of moods. Now he had to figure out If he would sacrifice his peace and quiet for Rias and the ORC or leave Rias somebody he didn't dislike but wasn't really a friend with to some noble who she despised. He didn't have anything against Riser even after he got his arm burned down to the muscle. It's not that it mattered either way, his arm was already healing by itself. The skin was regenerating and in a few seconds it would be as good as new. But the problem was still there, He spent his whole life trying his hardest to stay in the shadows and never draw to much attention to himself. But on the other hand, he grew to like the ORC and wouldn't just want to leave them to somebody they all despised.
"For fucks sake… Why do I always have to do this… For the love of God…" Issei said aloud as he looked to the sky staring at the vast nothingness.
(Issei's Apartment)
Issei walked into his apartment trying not to make any noise or get anyone's attention because frankly he just wanted some peace and quiet to think.
"Nya Issei your home?" Kuroka asked as she popped out from the hallway.
"Yeah…"
"Anything new with Shirone?" Kuroka asked with hopeful eyes.
'Fuck! If I go through with this the whole plan will get fucked! How could I not think of that! Now if I don't do it… Kuroka's sister will be somewhere she doesn't want to be for her whole life… Then Kuroka will probably never forgive me… God that would suck…' Issei thought to himself.
"Issei?"
"Sorry Kuroka now isn't the time… I'm just… tired… so please let me be for a while." Issei basically begged.
"Sure…" Kuroka said surprisingly.
And so Issei went to his room to think and figure out what the hell was he going to do.
(Dining Room)
"Nya…" Kuroka sighed.
"Kuroka? Is something the matter?" Grayfia asked as she put her book down.
"Yeah… It's Issei…"
"Issei? Did he get back yet?"
"Yeah… just a few minutes ago…"
"I see… And what's the matter then?"
"Issei… He… He doesn't show it but… He is working really hard for all of us I think…" Kuroka explained.
"Ah… Yes, that could be said…" Grayfia thought aloud.
"And… I'm just adding more on his plate by trying to meet Shirone again… If he didn't explain to me about her condition concerning me I would have just rushed straight in there and ruined any fragments of our relationship. But now he's going down the hard route just so he can help me and Shirone rekindle our relationship…" Kuroka said.
"Yeah… That's Issei… He is a very… 'Keep to himself' type of person… he doesn't tell anyone else his problems but takes on everyone else's… that's just how he is…" Grayfia told the Nekomata.
"Yeah… I just wish we could help him…"
"We can try but… He lives in a different world then us. We just need him to come back to us. The only thing we can do till then is give him outside support." Grayfia explained.
"And now I think he has something else on his plate…"
"And that is?"
"I don't know… I just saw him even more stressed than usual."
"We'll just have to wait and see then." Grayfia told Kuroka as she went back to her book.
(A Few Hours Later)
"Ah Issei Dinner is about to be ready." Grayfia said as she noticed Issei walk in.
"Alright I'll be in the dining room."
And so when Issei walked into the dining room he noticed Vali, Kuroka, and Sona already sitting at the table waiting for their food. He was quite surprised Serafall wasn't there though, ever since he got "Engaged" to Sona she has been around all the time.
"Finally I was getting worried." Vali said aloud.
"About?" Issei asked.
"You, you've been super stressed and tired lately I thought you weren't going to eat dinner either." Vali explained.
"Oh… well I'm sorry that I worried you."
And so the wait for the meal was very quiet nobody made any small talk not even Kuroka who is usually the life of the party didn't made a sound. But soon the food got there and everyone ate in silence. And after the meal they were back to square one. Silence… nobody made a sound. But Issei finally spoke up.
"Grayfia I need some advice…" Issei asked.
"Yes Issei?"
"Well… anyone of you can answer with your honest opinion." Issei said as he looked at the others present.
"Let's say… somebody you didn't dislike but weren't exactly friends with had a problem… and the only way out of that problem was you throwing away everything you worked for to this day. Would you do it? Or just let them be?" Issei asked.
"Hmm… The real question would be… Could you live without them?"
"Yes."
"Okay no let me rephrase that… Do you want to live without them? Do you enjoy being around them? Do you like their company?" Grayfia asked.
Did he really have fun with them? Could he live without them? Would he sacrifice his life in the shadows for something he doesn't even know if he felt?
"May I add something?" Sona asked aloud.
"Yeah go ahead."
"Okay well… Either answer is the right answer… just one has a bigger risk and possibly a bigger reward… would you let the bigger reward go just because you didn't want to take a risk? Or stick with the less risk and less reward? Knowing full well you may lose everything you worked for while not taking any risks. So In the end would you take the risk? Or risk everything else by doing nothing?" Sona explained.
"You guys aren't making my life any easier…" Issei grunted.
"I'll be going to bed early tonight… Tomorrow I may not be home for a while… I have some business to attend to." Issei exclaimed as he walked to his room.
"I think something big is going to happen soon… Issei will need us more than anything soon… I don't know why but… this seems big." Grayfia said aloud.
"Yeah… agreed…" Vali agreed.
(The Next Day)
The next day was quiet for Issei. Too quiet. In the morning before school Rias came by to ask how he was and to inform him that there won't be any after school club activities. Already that told Issei the problem was getting worse and fast. He didn't have much time. And so he debated with himself if he would sacrifice his peace and quiet and his life up till now for Rias' freedom? Or live the same way and still have the risk of him getting exposed to the supernatural world. In the end he made up his mind.
*Ring Ring* Issei started to call somebody on his phone.
"Hello?"
"Yeah it's me…"
"Issei? What can I do for you?"
"I need help with something… something that will most likely tell the whole supernatural world who I am."
"What?! I thought we promised each other you wouldn't do that until you were older!?" Yes, this was Ajuka Beelzebub on the phone.
"Something… came up…"
"What came up?!"
"I can't explain it to you here… I'm going to be by your office later. Is that alright?" Issei asked.
"Yes, that is fine… this is probably better to be discussed face to face." Ajuka sighed.
"I'll see you after school then."
"Yes, yes… I'll see you in a bit." And then the phone call ended.
"…"
"Why the fuck do I always do this to myself…" Issei said to himself.
"Because you're pretty stupid. Sacrifice everything you worked hard to create, all this peace. And you're just going to throw it all away. For what? Some girl you met barely over a month ago? You aren't a hero… You never will be the hero…" Dark Issei whispered over Issei's shoulder.
"I never said I was trying to be the hero… I don't want to be the hero… I can't be the hero…" Issei told his dark counterpart.
(After School: Ajuka's Office)
Ajuka was having a fairly good day. Nothing to stressful nothing to big happening. Maybe it was a bit boring but when you're in Ajuka Beelzebub's shoes you take a boring day whenever you can. But that soon ended when Issei Satan somebody he could call a little brother called him earlier that day. He always wanted to have a good relationship with his younger brother Diodora but he never could. From a young age Diodora despised Ajuka and was jealous of him ultimately breaking any sort of relationship they could have had. So when Issei came along he quickly treated him like a little brother and helped him like an older brother would. But back to the situation at hand. Issei would be here any minute with something that surely would get Ajuka in trouble and Issei having the entire world after him.
*Knock Knock*
"Yes?" Ajuka called out.
"Sir, Issei is here for you." A male voice called out from the other side of the door.
"Send him in please."
"Right away."
The door opened revealing Issei in his school clothes wearing his normal silver cross earring and rings on his fingers.
"Hello Issei it's been awhile since we could talk face to face." Ajuka said with a straight face. In any normal situation, he would be babying Issei and doting on him like how Sirzechs or Serafall would do to their siblings but Ajuka knew this wasn't the time.
"Yeah it has…" Issei said as he took a seat in front of Ajuka.
"You may as well just spit it out I'm guessing I won't like this either way." Ajuka said as he leaned back preparing himself for what was to come.
"As you already know since I told you this afternoon… I'm planning something that will no doubt about it expose my identity to the entire supernatural world…"
"Yes, that is why we are meeting now… What brought this up though?" Ajuka asked.
"It's… These devils I met… I joined their club and… Okay let me get straight to the point. I don't know if I enjoy being around them or not… I feel something… but I don't know what it is yet… after the whole ordeal with Her I don't know anymore…" Issei said as he stared at his hands.
"Okay… I get that but what does that have to do with you telling the world who you are?" Ajuka asked once again.
"It's their Master… She is…"
"Forcefully Engaged…" Ajuka finished his sentence.
"What? How did you know?" Issei asked clearly confused.
"You know how I told you a friend recommended that school to me? They really didn't… I overheard Sirzechs and Serafall talking about how their siblings went there and they allowed supernatural beings there since it was run by devils." Ajuka admitted.
"…"
"So I'm guessing the group you found is… Rias Gremory and her peerage?" Ajuka asked.
"Yes…"
"Well fuck… I knew someday you would need to come out of the shadows but damn… not this early…"
"…"
"And this isn't going to go well with the council… Maybe since you are basically royalty we thought were extinct you may get off easy… But there is still that chance it won't work…" Ajuka explained.
"Issei… I know it's hard but can you just let this one go? You said it yourself you don't know if you like them or have fun with them… It's just… Too risky… I can's losing you too…" Ajuka said as he stared at Issei.
"Ajuka… You are like a brother to me… I love you like you are one… But… Aren't you the one who told me to follow my heart? You were the one who taught me to love and help others while Rizevim taught me otherwise you both helped me to extreme lengths you both taught me lessons I will never forget or would want to forget. You canceled out his way of thinking from polluting me completely while he canceled your way of thinking himself. But… Something you told me long ago that I will never forget was when you told me to 'Follow my Heart when you don't know what to do anymore' And I will always respect that and follow it." Issei said bringing a few tears to Ajuka's Eyes.
"Issei… You are like the little brother I never had and always wanted… I just… don't want to lose you like Diodora…" Ajuka explained.
"I know… But I think… I need to do this…"
"Okay I will let you but… Can you not make a final decision right now? Can you think about it? The marriage I heard isn't for 2 weeks that will give you 1 week to think about it and figure out what you want to do. And if you do go through with this we will have a lot of Paperwork to go through." Ajuka asked and explained.
"Deal… But can you tell me what has to be if I do go through with this? I can figure out the basics but I want to know everything."
"Okay one sec… Man Sirzechs is going to be ecstatic if you go through with this…" Ajuka muttered the last part under his breath.
"Sirzechs? Why would he be ecstatic? Isn't he Rias' brother? I would have thought he made the marriage happen." Issei asked.
"Well… It's complicated…" Ajuka told Issei.
"How is it complicated?"
"Well think about it… He is now one of the 4 Satans Lucifer. He loves his sister like Serafall loves Sona he is… A siscon…"
"So? That still doesn't answer the question."
"Well… Think about it… He is Rias' brother, but he is a Satan before that. And if he voided the marriage the council would be after him and could take away his position and Rias would still have to marry Riser."
"So he can't do a thing… even if he doesn't want to the marriage to happen… He's basically backed into a wall and can't help his family because of the council…"
"Exactly… He has been trying to get somebody to help him under the radar but nobody has the balls to go against a Phenex…"
"Okay well I just thought about something that will help my cause if do go through with it."
"And that is?"
"Think about it… Rias is Sirzechs' sister… Sirzechs doesn't want the marriage to happen so if I help him dissolve it…"
"He will help us after the fact! So maybe… just maybe we could have more of a chance if you do go through with it… But still… this isn't a full proof plan so still think about it before you decide."
"Yeah I know… now what would I have to do if I do go through with it? We kind of got sidetracked." Issei said returning to the conversation.
"Well first of all a Shit-ton of paperwork."
"Already figured that out."
"You would have to do this how the clans would go about it."
"And that is?"
"A Gentlemen's Duel."
"So a one on one fight huh? How do we know they will accept?" Issei asked.
"It's simple… They can't not accept."
"What?"
"In the pursuit of a hand in marriage if there is more than 1 party competing for the hand in marriage it Is then settled by a duel. The winner takes all, but even if they do find a way around that they would be shunned and ridiculed because of it. And considering how high of a regard the Phenex' Pride is to them I doubt they will risk anything to make them look that bad." Ajuka explained.
"I see… Wait… I'm not competing for her hand in marriage though." Issei clarified.
"Oh on the contrary Issei. If you want to stop the engagement you must compete for it."
"What? I'm fighting for her so she can pick who she wants to marry."
"Well think about it this way then. If you do somehow manage to still get a duel for her even though you aren't planning to marry her and beat Riser. Somebody will come around at a moment's notice to grab at the chance to marry the 'Crimson Ruin Princess' and have children with her. In engagement contracts like this the female is basically a breeding tool. And Rias has the power of destruction not to mention she is the sister of the Satan Lucifer." Ajuka explained once again.
"Fuck…"
"You still want to go through with this? If you do you will be engaged to 2 very influential clan heirs."
"Fucking hell… Do you think I could do what I did with Sona?" Issei asked.
"And what is that?"
"A Trial engagement."
"Unfortunately that won't work this time."
"And why is that?"
"If the council hear of it they wouldn't let you do it. They want to marry her off immediately and her family is backed against the wall on it."
"Just wait and listen to what you just said." Issei said with a smirk forming on his face.
"What did I say?"
"You clearly said 'If the council hear of it' they wouldn't let it. Who said we would let them hear about it? We can do it under the table."
"I wonder where you get that way of thinking from… Me or Rizevim…" Ajuka said as a smirk formed on his face too.
"What can I say. Learn from the two of the most cunning minds and you tend to pick up on a few things."
"You said it not me."
"Anyways think about this…" Ajuka said as his face turned serious once again.
"I know… you only want what's best for me."
"You do this and I can guarantee you won't have your' peace and quiet anymore. And you would have paper work all the time to do. And almost always be busy. Especially at first you probably won't be able to go to school for a month with all the meetings you will have." Ajuka explained.
"I know… but hey 'Follow your' Heart' you said it not me. Sometimes you got to make some sacrifices." Issei said.
"Yeah, yeah… now get out of here I got work to do." Ajuka said with a smile on his face.
"I know I don't want to distract you from your' amazing research now do I?" Issei said sarcastically as he started to walk towards the door.
"Issei… Think about it seriously… this isn't some small thing…" Ajuka said seriously as Issei opened the door.
"I know, I know I heard you the first time… talk to you later." Issei said as he closed the door.
"Man… These coming days are going to suck ass…" Ajuka said as he prepared some paperwork.
'Decide on what you won't regret doing, Issei… You have suffered enough…' Ajuka thought to himself.
(Issei's Apartment)
Issei walked through his apartment not trying to get any attention. He was still reflecting on what Ajuka told him and how he would go about it. He still had to figure out how to rush the Shirone and Kuroka problem. He didn't even want to think about taking the precautions for the paperwork and meetings he's going to have to do if he goes through with his plan. And so he went to his room and started to do work but quickly fell asleep on his desk. Little did he know a certain female wearing a French maid outfit saw him.
"Oh Issei… always overworking yourself… you can rely on us some more Ise…" Grayfia said as she looked down to the sleeping Issei.
She brought a blanket and put it on him so he was covered as he slept. You could see the faint smile on his face as he was in Grayfia's presence. But almost as quickly as she came Grayfia left to do whatever she normally does. Leaving Issei in his room all by himself.
(?)
Issei awoke in the massive city from his last Nightmare but instead of it being in a post-apocalyptic state it looked like it was built not even a week ago. The only problem was there was nobody. Just Issei and the city as far as Issei could tell.
"Alright you can come out now. I know you brought me here on purpose." Issei spoke aloud hoping to get his Dark Counterpart to come out.
"I guess you have finally started to figure these dreams… took you long enough…" Dark Issei said.
"What do you want?"
"I just wanted to tell you what I think about you going out to save Red from the Big Bad Wolf. Or should I say the Big Bad Phoenix." Issei's counterpart said sarcastically.
"And why should I care? All you do is fuck up my life even more than it already is."
"Fuck you too. And no, you can't blame me for your own problems everything fucked in your life isn't my fault. I've done very minimal damage if you didn't already tell."
"Yeah but that doesn't mean you can't make it a lot worse."
"Fair enough…"
"Now since I clearly can't leave until you tell me what you want to say you may as well just get it over with."
"Fine, Fine… Why are you helping her?"
"It's not just her it's everyone in their little group… I feel something when I hang out with them."
"Pitiful…"
"And why is that?"
"You think you like them? You think you have fun with them? What if what you're feeling is the complete opposite? What if you hate them? What if you cannot stand them? What then? Everything you built up till now shattered… lost… you waisted it on some puny devil and her peerage."
"It's a risk… But sometimes you need to take risks… And I haven't even decided yet… I still have a week…"
"Are you sure about that?"
"What do you mean?"
"On your war to Ajuka's office you had your mind set… you weren't faltering in your decision at all."
"I know… but he said some things that worried me…"
"Now you're scared?! What the hell…"
"And you, how do I know you aren't just trying to trick me into doing it by making me think you don't want me to do it?"
"As I said before… Don't try to understand a thing I say… I try to help you because it helps me… But I try to tear you down because it helps me… Everything you do and I do contradict each other somehow… When we agree on something… Well… Hell usually breaks lose… You remember them, don't you?"
"How could I forget…"
"And what you said was true… if you do go through with it is what I want… just not the way I wanted it to go down… But hey, Beggars can't be Choosers."
"What do you mean by that?"
"God… Do I have to explain everything? If you go through with helping Gremory it will expose who you are correct?"
"Yeah…"
"And I want you to bring fear to everyone. I want everyone to know who you are and not even think of crossing your path. So getting you out there will hopefully do that. I would have hoped for you shedding a lot more blood on your big entrance though…"
"So no matter what I do it helps your cause…"
"Exactly so I wouldn't think about it so much."
"Is that all you wanted to say then?"
"Pretty much."
"Then can you let me leave?"
"Fine… But I'll tell you this before I kick you out… What if it's just a replay of what happened with Her? What if they are just playing you or in a moment's notice they are going to kick you out and shun you? What if they are just using you to get out of the marriage contract?" Dark Issei said and almost immediately Issei flinched from the statement but didn't say a thing.
And so Issei was sent out of his meeting with his Dark Counterpart letting him work on his other business.
(Next Day at School)
School was a fairly normal the only problem was that the entire ORC were depressed and gloomy. And so Issei made his way to find Rias to discuss him having to rush the Koneko and Kuroka problem.
"Rias." Issei said in his normal stoic voice.
"…" Rias didn't even hear him as she was busy looking through paperwork.
"Rias." Issei said once more.
"Huh?... Oh Issei! Sorry I was a bit sidetracked…"
"I see."
"Well what can I do for you?"
"Is Koneko ready to meet Kuroka?"
"What? What's the rush? Why so sudden?"
"I can't go into detail just do you think she can stand meeting her without hating her?" Issei asked again.
"I mean… I don't know… I think she needs one more push maybe?"
"I see… can you leave that to me?"
"I mean… She is kind of afraid of you… are you sure that's wise?"
"Trust me."
"… Fine…"
"Okay have her meet me tomorrow after school I'm going to bring Kuroka and have a reunion."
"Are you sure that's wise?"
"Trust me Rias." Issei said in such a calm voice it relaxed Rias almost immediately.
"Okay… I trust you…"
"Thanks… Well I have to go and I guess you are busy so goodbye for now."
"Yeah… see you later…" Rias said as she watched him leave.
(The Next Day After School)
"Remember what I told you Kuroka… Do not expect her to be completely open to you I'm already rushing this a little as I said."
"I know, I know… But you never said why you did have to rush this…"
"That's… Complicated…"
"Fine… Don't tell your really sexy Neko-Maid."
"Kuroka…"
"I know it was just a joke…"
"Alright we're here stay in the room I showed you before until I call you."
"Alright."
And so Kuroka and Issei split ways and Issei went to confront Koneko/Shirone.
"Thanks for meeting me Koneko." Issei said in his normal way as he entered the room Koneko was in.
"Y-yeah…" You could almost tell she flinched as she heard Issei's voice.
"Calm down I know we aren't on the best of terms but I can assure you that I mean no harm… in fact quite the opposite."
"The opposite?"
"Well… I'm guessing Rias has told you about your sister?" Issei said and almost immediately Koneko flinched again.
"I see you still have you're still skeptical." Said Issei.
"Yeah…"
"Well what do you think about the whole thing? No need to lie it's just me and you here." A lie? Issei needed to lie in order for Kuroka to understand her standpoint.
"Well… I'm happy? I spent my whole life scared… I still loved her… she's my sister and I can't just let that go…"
"But?"
"I'm scared… I was brought up being told after she left that my powers in senjutsu was going to drive me insane like her…"
"But she never did go insane as they told you she did it for you."
"I know just… I believed it for so long it's hard to let go of."
"I see."
"I don't know what to think about everything… Half of me wants to forgive and forget… the other wants to run away and hide…"
"If she was here right now do you think you could talk it out with her?"
"Maybe…"
"Well the real question would be… would you try and talk it out?"
"Yes…"
"I see… then now's a better time than any… Kuroka. You can come out now." Issei spoke a little louder than before. Almost immediately Koneko tensed up not expecting her to actually be there.
"Sh-Shirone?" Said Kuroka with tears in her eyes.
"Big sister…" Koneko didn't know how to react.
Thankfully Koneko didn't have to react as Kuroka ran towards Koneko and brought her into a bone crushing hug.
"Shirone… You don't have any idea how long I've tried to find you… I didn't mean to make you have such a hard life… I thought I helped when I did what I did…"
"I know…" Koneko said as she finally hugged back Kuroka who was currently crying profusely.
Issei smiled at the scene but felt something tug at him deep down. He didn't know what made him feel like that. He didn't know what exactly it was but he knew it didn't feel nice. And so he left the sisters to talk amongst themselves and catch up.
"Nya Shirone I've got so much to tell you! And the greatest of all I have to tell you about! Issei…" Kuroka said as she noticed Issei was long gone.
"Issei?"
"Yeah he helped me a lot. I'll tell you all about it." Kuroka said as she got back to her conversation.
And so they caught up and started to rekindle their relationship as siblings.
(With Issei)
"It all went well." Issei said as he entered the room Rias was in with Akeno.
"Really?! That's Great!" Rias exclaimed.
"Yeah! But… You don't look so happy Issei… What happened?" Akeno questioned.
"Nothing I'm just tired…"
"I see… Well sleep well we wouldn't want you falling asleep if anything important happens." Akeno said.
"I know… So if I may ask… What happened with your fiancé?" Issei asked Rias.
"Uhh… It's not good…" Rias answered.
"What happened?"
"I can't… get out of it…" Rias said as some tears started to form in the corners of her eyes.
"I'm sure it will be fine…"
"I don't think so, sadly… I think my luck has finally run out… I get a life of no worries up till now… I think karma has finally caught up with me…" Rias said sadly.
"Don't worry… Calm down and relax… I'm sure the answer will show itself Rias…" Issei said in a voice that made Rias and Akeno melt in his hands and let them be played with like pudy by Issei if he wished.
"O-Okay…"
"Well I must go now… I will see you later…" Issei said as he bid them farewell and left.
"Rias…"
"Yes Akeno?"
"What was that?"
"I don't know Akeno…"
And so the rest of the day went by as normal as it could considering the events that happened and that were coming in the near future.
(A Week and One Day Until the Wedding)
And so a week went by and the closer it got to the wedding the less Issei saw the ORC. And Grayfia was back at Issei's house in the Underworld to get some things, Kuroka was helping her, Vali was out training, and Sona had to stay late at the school to work on Student council business. So Issei had the whole apartment to himself… Oh how happy he was for his peace and quiet. And today was the day he needed peace the most, he would be making a big decision today… Would he help Rias and lose all his life in the shadows? Or let her be and stay in the shadows for who knows how much longer days? Months? Years? That was the problem he had a risk either way. And so he put those thoughts out of his mind until he got to his house/apartment.
"Now what the fuck do I do…" Issei said aloud as he pressed the button in the elevator to get to his floor.
"This is fucking ha-" Issei said but was silenced as he saw what was in his doorway.
"Welcome back!" Rias exclaimed from the hallway holding a ladle. But that wasn't what shocked Issei no it was… She was only wearing an apron… nothing else only an apron no underwear not a single thing…
"…" Issei stayed silent with his normal look on his face. (Which was a I don't care, I have my own troubles type of look.)
"Would you like a shoulder massage? or would you like dinner? … Or maybe? … Me?" Rias said as she lowered the apron slightly revealing more of her breast. Sadly she was blushing up a storm like a school girl so she didn't exactly look seductive… more like a cute and innocent schoolgirl.
"…" Issei spared a glance that said he acknowledged she was there but walked straight past her without muttering a single word.
"Wh-What?" Rias was speechless she expected many scenarios but never this… For Pete's sake any male would jump at the chance to have a go with her. What was he?!
And so he walked to his study and started to do some work he had laying around.
'Seriously… What the fuck is she doing?... I mean just looking at her face you can clearly see she doesn't want to do it… so why?' Issei thought to himself.
So time went by and Rias hadn't shown herself for a while. Sadly, Issei was going to go to bed… he knew it wasn't a good idea but… He was tired as crap so he didn't really care.
This time as he entered his bedroom Rias was laying on his bed but instead of the apron she was wearing a see-through nightgown. But as before she was blushing madly and was moving awkwardly.
'For fucks sake…'
"Issei~" Rias cooed seductively.
"…" The same as before Issei walked straight past her and laid down so he could go to sleep.
"Issei…"
'Shut up' Issei thought.
"Issei please…"
'Just shut up and leave…' Issei thought once again.
"Issei! Please!" Rias spoke rather loudly.
"…" Issei rolled over so he could look at Rias.
If anyone walked in they would think they were about to engage in some rather… Sexual activities… Rias was on her knees pinning Issei to the bed so her bare bottom was on Issei's crotch as Issei laid and stared into her eyes.
"Am I not good enough? Am I really that Unattractive?" Rias asked with tears starting to form in her eyes.
"No it's not that."
"Then please! Take me! Take my virginity…" Rias barely choked out as tears streamed down her face.
"…" Issei had to think about how he would answer to make sure he didn't add oil to the fire.
Rias finally broke out in tears on top of Issei and cried while everything else was silent.
Finally Issei had enough of this and figured out what he would do. So in a swift motion he brought an unsuspecting Rias into a hug that would make any girl melt in his hands.
"Rias… If you want me to take you… at least be honest with yourself…" Issei said in his normal calm and soothing voice.
"I am though…I have never been as honest with myself…"
"No you aren't don't try and change what your heart is feeling… I can see it in your eyes you're forcing yourself to do this…"
"It's just…" Rias didn't finish what she was going to say before she started to cry again but this time she clutched the back of Issei's shirt and cried into his chest.
After a few minutes she finally calmed down but she still didn't let go of Issei.
"Now since you calmed down will you tell me what happened?" Issei asked while stroking the back of her head.
"It's… It was a last resort…" Rias answered.
"Last resort for what?"
"For my engagement… I thought if I lost my virginity to somebody else they would dissolve the contract…"
"I see…"
"Are you mad?"
"No."
"But… I was using you for my own personal gain…"
"I'm used to it…" Those words hurt Rias a lot more than if he just said he was mad at her.
"But… Now…"
"Now what?"
"What am I supposed to do?! I can't run away from the marriage! I don't have any other way! What do I do?!" Rias exclaimed as tears started to stream down her face once again.
And in one motion Issei brought his lips to her forehead and kissed it. Rias was wide eyed at the action but felt… relaxed…
"Calm down…"
"B-But."
"Do you trust me Rias?"
"Yes."
"Then trust me on this… I will get you out of your engagement… you just have to trust me…"
"But how?"
"Shhhh… just trust me…" Issei said soothingly.
"Okay… I will…" Rias said as she felt comfortable in his embrace.
"Issei?" Rias asked aloud.
"Yeah?"
"Can I spend the night here?"
"It's fine with me just don't try anything." Issei said as he let go of Rias and settled in himself.
"Umm Issei?"
"Huh?"
"Can you hug me while I fall asleep?" Rias asked as her face was as red as her hair.
"Uhhh… fine…" Luckily it was too dark for Issei to see her blushing but he could definitely feel it.
"Ah…" Rias let out a comfortable sigh.
She felt way to comfortable in Issei's embrace. It was… Warm… soothing…
'Wait… am I falling for him?! … No it couldn't be…' Rias thought to herself as she drifted to sleep.
(The Next Day)
As Issei woke up he noticed a mop of Red on his chest. After a few seconds of staring at the Red he remembered yesterday's events. And so he had to get up so he gently brought Rias off of him and laid her next to him so she could sleep.
"You look awfully peaceful considering what happened last night…" Issei said aloud even know he knew nobody would answer.
And so he got up and walked to his bathroom so he could take a shower and freshen up. After 15 minutes, he finally walked out of the bathroom wearing nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist. He then got his phone and called someone as he sat at the edge of the bed.
"Hello?" Issei asked into the phone.
"Issei? What do you want?" A tired Ajuka asked.
"I've made up my mind."
"I see…"
"I'm guessing you want to meet with me again then?"
"Yeah… Can you come by in like 30 minutes? I know today you don't have school today so…"
"Yes, that's fine I'll see you then…"
"Yep see you later."
And so the phone call ended as Issei sighed.
"Issei?" Rias groggily asked.
"Hmm?" Issei looked back to see Rias with a bad case of bed head and drool at the corner of her mouth.
"Wh-" Rias started to say but stopped as she noticed Issei was completely naked under the towel.
"Rias?" Issei asked as he noticed blood trickled out of Rias' nose.
'Holy shit… those abs… those defined muscles… that flawless body!' Rias thought to herself.
"Hello?" Issei asked once again but It was finally too much for Rias to take so she ended up passing out. But nobody can blame her it's not every day Issei Satan is seen in that state. It was basically every girl's wet dream to see something like that.
"…" Issei merely let it go and walked out ignoring what just happened.
And so after he put some clothes on he made his way down stairs.
"Issei?" Grayfia asked aloud as he walked into the kitchen.
"Hmm?" Issei looked back to see all of the girls who lived under his roof sitting at the table staring at him.
"Why were you and Rias sleeping together? You realize she's engaged, right?" Sona enquired with a slight glare.
"Yes, I knew of that. What are you trying to say?" Issei was getting a little ticked off since he knew where this was going.
"For fucks sake Issei! Why did you sleep with Rias!" Vali roared.
Almost immediately as she said that Issei glared at her immediately shutting her and everyone else up.
"Just so you know. I didn't have sex with anyone… You should be thankful she came to me and not anyone else otherwise you would have somebody fucking her into tomorrow morning." Issei told the crowd.
"What do you mean?" Sona asked again.
"She came to me so I would take her virginity so she could dissolve the marriage contract. Sadly, she doesn't realize that doesn't work anymore in the devil society." Issei explained.
"That whore…" Kuroka snarled.
"Whore? Don't say that again unless you want to get punished." Issei said coldly.
"I would let you know she was about to be in tears as she asked me to sleep with her. She would go as far as to give me, somebody she hasn't known for 2 months her virginity just so she could get out a marriage and marry who she wants to and truly loves. And no I'm not good friends with her I'm barely even acquaintances with her but I know who is right and who is wrong… so I will defend her on this." Issei declared.
"Sorry…" Kuroka timidly spoke.
"…"
"Huh? Good morning everyone…" Rias said as she walked out of the hallway into the kitchen while rubbing her eyes.
"Good morning to you too. Would you like breakfast?" Grayfia asked.
"Yes, that would be delightful…"
"Okay then please give me a few minutes to prepare."
"Take your time I'm the one intruding."
"And you Issei? Do you want something too?" Grayfia asked.
"No I have somewhere I have to be so no thank you." Issei said as he put on his shoes and got ready to leave.
"Oh… Where might you be going?" Grayfia asked hoping to know.
"Just running some errands… Making some decisions… no need to worry about anything I'll be back later" Issei told her.
"Okay… Well, have a safe trip!" Grayfia exclaimed.
"Yeah… See you later." Issei left as he waved his hand goodbye.
"…"
"Rias?" Sona asked aloud.
"What Sona?" Rias asked seeing Sona's stare… it wasn't a good stare…
"What the fuck were you thinking?"
(Ajuka's Office)
Ajuka was currently sitting on his couch waiting for a certain Satan to arrive. And right on time Issei arrived via magic circle.
"What no going to the front desk today?" Ajuka asked sarcastically.
"No too long of a wait."
"So it's fine just waltzing on in here?"
"No. But I'm an exception."
"Fair enough… Now… should we get down to business?"
"My thoughts exactly."
"Now first of all… What is your final decision?" Ajuka enquired.
"I am going to help them."
"May I ask what was the final spark to light your flame?"
"I saw how determined and desperate they are… well… she is."
"Oh? And what happened?"
"I can't say… it wouldn't be fair… let's just say it was something that people long ago did it to get out of engagements."
"Ah… I get it…"
"Yeah so please don't tell anyone."
"I won't don't worry… but did they go through with it?"
"No I didn't go through with it thank you very much."
"Goodman…"
"Yes, now can we get on with this?"
"Ah, yes I got sidetracked."
And so they spent the next few hours going over paperwork and finalizing everything. Thankfully Ajuka already had most of the paperwork out just in case he did agree and Issei just had to read over it and sign it. And they sent the engagement duel to the Phenex so they could agree.
"Ah it seems they have answered!" Ajuka exclaimed.
"That fast?"
"As I said the Phenex could never deny the request their pride is on the line."
And so they opened the envelope and read over everything making sure all was in order and ready for duel. Surprisingly enough they didn't want to move the date of the Wedding to a later date they wanted to have the duel and wedding the same day. Ajuka said they were probably being cocky and want it as a way of Riser showing his strength and it being a form of entertainment to the guests.
"So is everything officially ready?"
"Yes, you can now go and rest or train whatever you do before a fight and wait till the duel."
"I see well I'll be going now."
"See you later!"
But as Issei summoned his magic circle he stopped mid summon.
"Ajuka…"
"Hmm?"
"Thank you."
"No problem kiddo… Just make sure you kick his ass otherwise I'll be really angry… not to mention Rizevim."
"I know… But seriously thank you…"
Ajuka got up and walked towards Issei and hugged him.
"What are brothers for? Now go I'm sure your harem is waiting for you."
"I don't have a Harem Ajuka…"
"Oh sureeeeeeeee."
And so Issei left Ajuka in his office by himself.
'Go kick some ass…' Ajuka thought to himself.
(Issei's Apartment)
"Issei did what?!" Kuroka, Grayfia, and Vali all yelled.
"Exactly what I said!" Rias was telling them about the night and how Issei treated her.
"Wow…" The normally calm Grayfia said as she was at a loss for words… she was… Jealous.
"Is it really that rare for Issei to do stuff like that?" Sona asked.
"Very… he used to be a loving compassionate child but… he was forced to change…" Grayfia explained.
"What happened? How was he forced to change?"
"Well… it's not our place to say… just wait until he tells you..."
"Wow… so I had him do something really rare to me…" Rias said as she started to blush thinking that she was "Special".
The other girls didn't like how she acted and how Issei did those things for her so they were… a little jealous… Well… that may be an understatement.
"Hey don't start thinking you're special! Just so you know he's done that kind of stuff to us too!" Kuroka shot back.
"I'm back…" Issei said as he walked through the lounge to his bedroom.
"Ah welcome back!"
"Oh Sona… Can you do me a favor please?" Issei asked.
"If it's within my power I can try."
"This next week I won't be able to go to school. So can you write me off or whatever you need to do."
"Yes, I suppose I can do that… But what are you going to be doing?"
"Business." Was Issei's short answer.
"I see… and this won't have anything to do with being the, Issei "Satan"? From the Satan bloodline?" Rias said sarcastically earning a few glares from the occupants in the room.
"Actually yes it does to do with that."
"Sure… Well I should leave now it looks like you guys are busy and I need to do the paperwork I missed since I was here all day." Rias said as she summoned a magic circle.
"Talk to you later Rias." Sona said.
"Bye." The rest except Issei all said.
"…" Issei just waved without sparing a glance and walked to his room.
(Issei's Room)
"Fuck… it's official…"
"You are damn right… now you won't get that peace and quiet you love." Issei's counter-part answered.
"Maybe I'll find something better than my peace and quiet." Said in his normally stoic voice.
"In your fucking dreams."
"Hey I can dream…"
"Not unless you want to have another nice chat with me you can't"
"Touché."
"…"
"Issei? Who are you talking to?" Grayfia asked as she entered his room wearing her nightgown.
"Nobody just myself…" Technically it wasn't a lie.
"I see… Do you need anything before you go to bed?" Grayfia asked.
'Should I tell them now?... Or wait…' Issei thought to himself.
"Grayfia…"
"Yes?" Grayfia was surprised from the sudden change in mood.
"Can you go and get Vali and Kuroka? Just bring them here I have to tell you guys something…" Issei told the silver haired beauty. But Grayfia was starting to get worried Issei usually never has to do things like this… but now today he has surprised everyone with how he's been acting. The same attitude and outlook just… doing things he doesn't do unless he's desperate.
(A Few Minutes Later)
"Nya? Issei what did you want us for?" Kuroka asked as she Grayfia and Vali walked in.
"Yeah… What's up?" Vali asked.
"In a week, I'm going to be fighting a Phenex in the underworld to help Rias." Issei said in his stoic calm voice.
"What?!" All three of them yelled.
"Do I need to repeat myself?"
"No… But… Wh-" Grayfia was quickly cut off by Vali.
"Issei!? Are you dumb?!" Vali yelled and ignored the buzzing pain coming from the servant mark she has from Issei.
"You spent all this time! And for what?! Just to throw it away for some slut who threw herself onto you?!" Vali immediately felt an even bigger shock from the mark which meant she did something she really, really shouldn't have done.
"…" Issei simply glared at Vali as she started to back off.
"I'm following my heart… if you think that's so wrong… then maybe you should leave… I'll forgive you but… You went too far this time…" Issei said calmly… almost too calmly.
"Sorry…" Vali said meekly.
"It's just that… You spent all this time trying to keep your peace and quiet and…" Vali said as she started to tear up.
"Shhh… It's fine…" Issei gently hugged her and patted her back.
"No… I don't want you to suffer anymore… you are stressed enough these days…"
"It's fine… as long as you guys are fine… I'm fine…"
"Ano… I'd love to let you guys continue but… Can you explain how you are doing all of this wedding crashing?" Kuroka asked.
"Agreed I would like the details…" Grayfia agreed.
"Well… In one week, I will have a duel with Riser Phenex at the Wedding of him and Rias Gremory. The winner will take her hand in marriage."
"Wait… Take her hand in marriage?" Grayfia asked with a tick mark on her forehead.
"Yes… that is the only way to help her… I went down all the details and possibilities with Ajuka and there was no other way… So… I will be having an under the table "Trial" Engagement like I have with Sona. So we will know it's a "Trial" But everyone else will think it's just a real engagement. That way she can marry who she chooses and I can protect her from any future marriage contracts."
"I see… What about you announcing yourself to the entire supernatural world though?"
"That is… the complicated part… We will most likely have Sirzechs' support and we already have Rizevim and Ajuka so…"
"Still… that's risky…"
"I know, I know…"
"Wait… If this was about this… Why didn't you call Sona too? She is technically your fiancé."
"She doesn't believe I'm Issei Satan remember? Same goes for Rias and co."
"Oh yeah… damn are they in for a shocker then…" Kuroka said.
"Well… I guess I should go find all the extra maid uniforms…" Grayfia said aloud.
"Maid uniforms? Why?" Vali asked clearly confused.
"Ah this is your first time going to a formal meeting with Issei isn't it Vali…" Kuroka exclaimed.
"Yeah… Why…?"
"We all have to wear Maid outfits of course… We are all Issei's servants technically so… We are obligated to…" Grayfia explained.
"Fuck…" Was all the Vali said.
"Well I'm going to bed I'm tired… if you have any other questions ask me tomorrow…" Issei said as he laid down. Not soon after Kuroka came and crawled on top of him curling into a ball. Not soon after them was Vali then after that was Grayfia. All 4 of them shared the bed… And Issei slept the best he did in a while.
(One Week Later: Day of Wedding)
Issei was sitting in his study ready and was as calm as could be. But he soon glanced up at the clock he had on his desk and noticed it was time to get ready for his duel against Riser Phenex. This would be a fight to watch it would be broadcasted around the supernatural world. Why would it be broadcasted you may ask? Well since Rias is such a big deal in the devil society she was basically a princess. So all the news stations jumped to the occasion when they heard of the wedding. The duel against Riser Phenex and Issei Satan only made even more people want to broadcast it. And so Issei walked out of the Study and went to find all the Grayfia, Kuroka, and Vali all nervous in the lounge. Sona wasn't there as she was helping organize the Wedding as she was one of Rias' bridesmaids.
"It's time to get ready." Issei spoke through the silence making the three jump.
"Come on why are you guys even nervous? I'm the one fighting not you." Issei told the three.
"I know but…"
"But what? Nervous I can't handle it?"
"No ju-"
"Then don't worry… trust me…"
"Okay…" The three all were happy with the response.
And so Issei went to his room to get ready as the girls went to a separate changing room to get ready.
Issei walked into his room and found the completely white suit he wore his first day at Kuoh. And so he put on his suit and checked his Earring and made sure it was all fine and then quickly adjusted his rings. His Black Ring with Gold highlights on his right middle finger. And the White Ring with Red highlights on his left middle finger. He looked in the mirror one final time and saw his reflection stare back at him and just stared. Finally the reflection moved and talked to Issei.
"So you're actually doing it…"
"No point in backing down now."
"No just make sure you don't lose. It would make both our lives much worse."
"Wasn't planning on it."
"Go kick his ass for me."
"For you? I don't think so this is for me and for the others."
"Suit yourself I'll take pleasure in it so it doesn't really matter."
And so Issei turned away from the mirror and walked out of the room and called somebody.
"Issei my boy! How are you?" Rizevim asked over the phone.
"Sorry Rizevim I don't have time right now I just called you to tell you that you may want to put on the devil news right now." Issei told the Devil.
"Okay… The one broadcasting the Gremory and Phenex Wedding?"
"Yeah that one."
"Okay… May I ask why? It's quite boring and I would rather not die of boredom."
"Don't worry keep watching you for sure won't get bored watching."
"Are you sure?"
"Trust me."
"Alright…"
"Well I have to go but keep watching no matter what I can promise you a good time."
"Alright talk to you later." Ajuka said as the phone call ended.
As Issei got to the lounge he was greeted by his three maids waiting for him. Grayfia had her normal French maid uniform on but the other two had on a typical white and black uniform that barely contained their bountiful assets.
"You three look lovely." Issei said making the three blush.
"Thank you very much Lord Satan." Grayfia said with a bow.
"Wait we have to call him Lord Satan too?!" Vali questioned.
"Unfortunately, yes… We can't even cuddle with him… or baby him… Or Anything!" Kuroka yelled with a pout. It almost sounded like Serafall with Sona.
"Okay I now understand why we have to act like this…" Vali said as Grayfia nodded in agreeance.
"Are you three ready?" Issei asked in which they all nodded.
"Grayfia, If you would."
"Right away." Grayfia said as she summoned a magic circle.
"Then let's go."
(Gremory/Phenex Territory)
"This is Demonic News coming in with live coverage of Rias Gremory and Riser Phenex' Wedding! We are honored to be here and are happy to broadcast this across the world!" An overly excited Devil broadcaster exclaimed.
"We are currently in between Phenex and Gremory Territory to celebrate this wonderful occasion! Many high-ranking officials will be attending today's ceremony along with the Devil council."
"We will be broadcasting every second of it so stay tuned!"
A second later you could see everyone in the party stop what they were doing and stared at the 4 newcomers. It wasn't the three beauties that made everyone speechless it was the man that was there. He was calm and serene he radiated elegance and magnificence. He made everyone stop and stare he didn't even have to do anything and all eyes were on him he attracted everyone with his aura.
"Who is this newcomer? I have never seen him before but…" The broadcaster never finished his sentence as he was that speechless.
(With the VIP guests)
All of the VIP guests were seated in a section of the outdoor field that was strictly reserved to the top officials and devil council.
"Ah Lord Gremory! This is a nice Wedding is it not?" Lord Phenex exclaimed as he saw Lord Gremory appear.
"Yes, it is most exquisite!" Lord Gremory agreed.
"I'm happy you think so! I have a very good source of entertainment for later too!"
"Oh? May I know?"
"Oh yes! Somebody has challenged Riser for Rias' hand in marriage so we thought we could have the duel today and bring entertainment to all audiences! Along with showing everyone how strong and able Riser is."
"Oh. Are you sure that is wise? Who is this challenger?"
"Issei Satan he is "Supposedly" The son of Satan himself!" Lord Phenex said sarcastically as he bellowed out in laughter.
"Hahaha! He truly thinks we will believe something as preposterous as that?" Lord Gremory agreed.
"Did you two say something about Issei Satan?" Lord Sitri walked into the conversation.
"Yes, whoever he is he claims to be the Son of Satan and challenged Riser for Rias' hand in marriage."
"Issei Sa-!" Lord Sitri began to exclaim but was quickly shut up as the challenger everyone waited for arrived.
And in that instance everyone went silent.
(With Issei)
Issei stood in the middle of the whole place with all eyes on him as he searched for somebody he knew.
"Issei!" His savior called out.
"Ajuka! There you are. Where do I need to go?" Issei asked.
"Just follow me until the duel."
"Alright."
(News Broadcaster)
"We have just received news that this newcomer has challenged Riser Phenex for Rias Gremory's hand in marriage!" The broad caster yelled.
(With Rizevim)
"Issei! Euclid Get in here!" Rizevim yelled out.
"What is it?!" Euclid asked urgently as he thought something happened.
"It's Issei!"
"Issei?"
"He's on TV! He's challenging a Phenex!"
"He's What?! The Issei we know?!"
"Exactly! That's what I'm saying!"
"Wow…"
"Now quit what you're doing and sit down and watch!"
"Yes sir!"
(Back with the News Broadcaster)
"I have just been informed this challenger's name is Issei Satan! He claims to be the Son of Satan himself!"
(With the Marriage Party)
Rias and her peerage and Riser and his were sitting at a table in the massive assembly waiting for everyone to get there so they could officially get married.
"Rias!" Akeno yelled.
"What is it Akeno…" Rias said in a defeated tone.
"It's Issei!"
"What about him?" Rias said as a fare of hope went through her body.
"He's here!"
"What?! Lead me to him!" Rias exclaimed.
And so Rias and Akeno ran out in there dresses to confront Issei but was stopped by Kuroka who was wearing her maid uniform which surprised the two.
"Miss Gremory please go back to your waiting area." Kuroka said in a calm and mature voice.
"Kuroka lead me to Issei! I need to talk to him!" Rias exclaimed as she started to go past Kuroka.
"I am afraid I cannot do that Miss Gremory, Lord Satan has personally requested to make sure you stay where you are supposed to be." Kuroka explained.
"B-But…"
"Miss Gremory please…"
"Fine…" Rias said defeatedly.
But as Akeno and Rias got back to the Marriage party waiting area they overheard Riser speak.
"So he has arrived?" Riser asked a butler.
"Yes just a few moments ago."
"Very good I shall prepare. This should be a good show for everyone." Riser said with a shit eating grin.
(With Issei)
"It has been dealt with Lord Satan." Kuroka told Issei.
"Thank you Kuroka."
"No problem Lord Satan."
The Rumors about Issei were already circulating through the crowd as he was first of all a mysterious occurrence and challenger for Rias' hand in marriage. But now he claims to be the Son of Satan? That could get people in a lot of trouble if they take it too far and say it in front of High-Class and High-Ranking officials. And there just happened to be almost every high ranking in the devil society attending today.
"Issei." Ajuka said with a serious voice.
"Yes?"
"I have some advice for you."
"Okay. What is it?"
"Today you are already making a big risk doing this so… I need you to go overboard. Like don't just use just enough to take him out make sure it's intimidating and flashy. We need people to understand who you are and you are not just any regular devil. You are… The Son of the True Satan."
"Very well… Should I remove the rings?" Issei asked.
"No that shouldn't be necessary we don't want to destroy everything here. Just scare them… A lot."
"Very well… Have you talked with Sirzechs?"
"No I am about to go over there and talk to him in private."
"And what about me?"
"Just wait here this part was reserved for Satan's so nobody should bother you until the match."
"Okay thank you."
And so Ajuka left to discuss with Sirzechs about Issei.
(With the VIP Guests)
Lord Sitri was speechless Issei Satan his daughters Fiancé was going for another wife already? He wasn't mad just… Surprised. The way Issei acted didn't seem like he would do this so fast and yet… He was! He quickly composed himself and heard a bunch of rumors surrounding Issei most were mocking him calling him a fool to challenge a Phenex and to claim he was the Son of Satan was blasphemy to devils if there was such a thing as blasphemy for devils. He gritted his teeth and fought back the urge to yell at them for what they were saying. He could just go and fight them they were all from the council not even he could fight them.
"So this is the one who claims to be Lord Satan's Son?! He doesn't even look like Lord Satan!" Lord Phenex exclaimed.
"I hope he will be good entertainment though… I would hate to disappoint."
"Even when he gets beaten to a pulp that will still satisfy the council. Just look at them they are obviously offended somebody would claim to be Lord Satan's Son."
"True… But this will be a fast fight."
"Zeoticus please tell me you aren't underestimating this young lad?" Venelana Gremory spoke up.
"Oh no honey…"
"That's what I thought…"
"Anyways Lord Gremory the fight will commence shortly." Lord Phenex said.
"I cannot wait."
(Marriage Part Waiting Area)
"Rias! What is Issei doing here?!" Sona yelled.
"I don't know!"
"Well you obviously do! I didn't invite him! Do you here the rumors?! My Fiancé is being made a fool!" Sona exclaimed.
"Sona trust me! I had no part in this!" Rias yelled.
"If I see he gets in trouble or hurt… You will be in a lot of trouble." Sona said menacingly.
"If he does… I will try my best to fix it." Rias said.
"You better."
"Attention the Dual between Issei Satan and Riser Phenex for Rias Gremory's hand in Marriage will commence shortly! Please make your way to the designated area!" Somebody said over the Speakers.
"What?" Rias said. She was speechless. Issei was what?! He was fighting for her hand in marriage?!
"Rias…" Sona said menacingly.
(With Issei)
"Issei Satan I Presume?" Sirzechs Lucifer asked.
"Yes, this is."
"I heard the whole story from Ajuka… I must say… Thank you!" Sirzechs said as he bowed to Issei. He didn't believe Issei was the Son of Satan but he believed the other part Ajuka told him.
"Please stand up Sirzechs it would make you look bad in front of all these people."
"I know just… Thank you! You don't understand how much this means to me! I tried everything… But nothing worked… I thought all was lost… But then you came along! So thank you once again! If there is anything I can do just ask!"
"I have just one thing in mind."
"And that is?"
"Attention the Dual between Issei Satan and Riser Phenex for Rias Gremory's hand in Marriage will commence shortly! Please make your way to the designated area!"
"I guess that's my cue."
"Wait what is it you wish for?" Sirzechs asked.
"Help me and Ajuka with the aftermath." Issei said as he started to walk away.
'Aftermath? Surely he doesn't mean he is the Son of Lord Satan… he doesn't even look like him.'
And so Issei walked towards the area all the people parted making a clear passage to the designated area. And in a quick flare of magic Issei changed. His pure white suit turned into a black suit with gold highlights. His hair turned as black as night. His eyes as Red as blood. This was. The Son of Satan.
Sirzechs said to himself as he was speechless at what he just witnessed. "Hair as Black as Night."
(With the VIP Guests)
"Eyes as Red as Blood." Lady Venelana said aloud loud enough for everyone around her to hear.
"He is the spitting image of Lord Satan…" Lady Sitri said aloud.
"Please! He can look like him that doesn't mean a thing! He is probably just using magic to make him look like that!" Somebody from the council exclaimed.
Sadly, it was too late all the women blushed at the sight of the boy who was the spitting image of their former leader and king.
(With Issei)
You could hear a pin drop. Everyone was silent Issei's transformation was making absolutely everyone speechless. Everyone thought he was Elegant and magnificent before. Now just multiply what they thought by 100x His aura became even greater it was as if he was limiting himself for the sake of the others. So he made his way to the makeshift arena they made. Thankfully the marriage was an outdoor marriage so it wasn't that hard to make. It was a fairly large field surrounded by barriers so they didn't hurt the guests. And so he entered the makeshift arena and waited for the duel to commence.
(With the ORC)
After they heard Issei was going to fight for Rias' hand they rushed off to the arena and got the closest to the arena in the VIP area so they heard all of the murmurs and rumors surrounding Issei. Including when they said he was the Spitting image of Lord Satan. At first they didn't know what they were talking about but then they spotted Issei in the arena and gasped at the sight. He was the same yet… completely different. He was on a whole different level now.
"He is just a faker!"
"He isn't real! It's a disguise!"
"Satan died long Ago! He would have any offspring!"
People started to say making Issei's loved ones grit their teeth and keep quiet.
Yet some of the older devils were doing a spit-take they didn't know what to believe they just needed to wait and see.
(Back with Issei)
"Issei Satan! I do not wish to fight you! But If you challenge me to a duel like this I cannot decline!" Riser yelled from the other side of the field.
"I too do not wish to fight this battle!" Issei yelled back.
"Then let us call this of-"
"But! I had somebody put their trust in me! And I plan to keep my promise with them!" Issei yelled back.
"Very well! Please do not hold any ill will against me!" Riser said.
"Same goes for me!"
"The Battle between Riser Phenex! And Issei Satan! Will commence after a quick list of rules!" The Speakers bellowed.
"The Battle will go Until 1 Party cannot continue! Either by Knock out! By surrender! Or … By Death!" The speaker announced making the audience cheer.
"Fighters! Are you Ready?!"
Both fighters nodded but didn't move a muscle. Didn't even go into a battle stance.
"Begin!"
And so Riser released his devil wings and flew into the sky and beckoned Issei to follow. And so Issei too released his wings. But what happened next made everyone silent once again. Instead of 1 pair of wings. 12 Wings appeared on Issei's back. This caused many more rumors and gasps to be heard.
(VIP Area)
"Impossible… Is he really the Son of Sa-!" The man who was speaking was quickly cut off.
"He's probably from the Old Satan Faction! He is just posing as The Son of Satan to get Power! And restore the Old Satan Faction!" An arrogant old prick from the council screamed as spit flew out of his mouth.
"Yes he must just be an imposter from the Old Satan Faction! That's it!" Quickly others followed and believed the Old fool. Which made The ones who knew the truth to grit their teeth even more. But the ones who knew Issei but didn't believe who he was were just speechless. They didn't know what to believe. The same went for the Wiser old Devils who met and talked to Lord Satan before he vanished. But there was one other member in the audience. She had Blonde Hair, And Red eyes. A Body to die for she had a bust bigger than Akeno's and hips that rivaled Rias' maybe even beat hers. She saw Issei and started to tear up.
"Issei… I finally found you again!" She exclaimed as a tear streamed down her face. She was seemingly… happy. Sadly she hadn't yet realized how far she hurt Issei. (Author Note: This is the Girl from the flashback in chapter 1 when he was fighting Raynare in case you didn't catch on!)
(Back with Issei)
Issei flew into the sky to meet a shocked Riser to say the least he didn't expect Issei to have 12 wings at all. But he quickly shook it off and shot towards Issei. He shot a fist towards Issei who Issei quickly deflected and sent a punch of his own. This went on for a while until Riser decided to start using magic. He coated his fist with Phenex fire and started to punch faster towards Issei. Issei kept dodging and reflecting but soon the fire started to annoy him. So he sent a kick to Riser's side and launched him down towards a large builder. The audience gasped Issei did that, They all expected a one sided fight from Riser but Issei kept making them more and more speechless. Riser quickly got up and flew back up towards Issei and continued with his onslaught of fists.
(VIP Area)
"Lord Gremory… Does that Earring look familiar?" Lord Phenex asked about The Silver cross earring Issei wore.
"He shouldn't be able to wear that… he's a devil… The only one who wore one like that was… Lord Satan! That looks like Lord Satan's!" Lord Gremory exclaimed.
Now even more questions were popping up. Still the main question was… "Was Issei Satan the Son of Satan?"
(Back with Issei)
Issei finished with another kick to Riser sending him flying into the ground once again. But this time when Riser got up he unsummoned his wings. Almost instantaneously though flames of fire sprouted from his back. He then summoned orbs of fire and launched them towards Issei who either shielded himself from them or dodged. This went on for a few moments until Riser Launched forward faster than before and landed a fist to Issei's face launching him to the ground. Sadly, for Riser instead of getting launched into the ground like Riser he simply landed on his feet and skidded a few feet back.
'This is getting boring.' Issei thought dryly.
He then looked towards where Ajuka was in the VIP Area and smirked as he saw what Ajuka was doing. With his thumb Ajuka was making a slaughter him signal by sliding his thumb over his neck like he was slitting it.
'Time for the big Reveal.'
And as Issei looked back at Riser he smiled. He did the same as Riser did when he got up from the crater. He unsummoned his devil wings. And a second later… 2 Magnificent wings of Blood Sprouted from his back. Immediately shocking everyone in attendance.
(VIP Area)
"My God…"
"The Blood Demon Form."
"He Truly is…"
"The Son of Satan."
"MY DAUGHTERS FIANCE IS THE SON OF SATAN?!" To say Lord Sitri was ecstatic would be an understatement he never lost his cool much like Sona… But this… This was something else! What Luck he had! He could leave his daughter to somebody like this!
All the while Everyone was still speechless. Even the councilmen from before were speechless. Especially Rias, Sona, And their groups didn't know what to do. They felt a bit guilty. He clearly told them who he was. But they were too naïve to believe… And now here the Elders were speechless from this.
(With Issei)
And so Issei Flew upwards and was parallel to Riser.
"Riser! I must end this now! So please surrender!"
"I'm sorry Issei but my pride is on the line here!" Riser yelled.
"Very well… Forgive me…" Issei said as power erupted from Issei.
Issei's hair started fluttering all over the place his Blood Wings fluttered even more magnificent as before. And then it happened. The clouds above them started gathering around them. There was no sky as far as the eye could see. Then out of nowhere the wind started to pick up, Lightning started to flash and strike the ground.
The people who knew Issei quickly prepared themselves for the incoming events and the smart ones who saw them who were the ones who met Issei before followed in pursuit.
Then the worst came… Tornados, Cyclones, whatever you wanted to call them… Came down from the sky… But that wasn't all… They were cyclones and tornados of Blood. There wasn't just a couple. There were hundreds of them, the field they were in was starting to get overrun by them and the High-Ranking Devils had to work together to put up barriers to stop the forces and protect the guests.
(VIP Area)
"The Blood Field! He truly is! The Son of Satan!" An Elder yelled out.
"What!? It can't be! Lord Satan Vanished long Ago!"
"Are you Retarded?! The Proof is right there! Nobody else has even come close to figure out how Lord Satan's magic worked!" The elder yelled again.
"Then my Son… is fighting the Son of Satan!" Lord Phenex quickly got worried.
"It seems we got too carried away… Karma is a bitch." Lord Gremory said.
"Indeed… We spoke too soon."
(With Rizevim)
*Spill* Whatever Rizevim was drinking at the moment was currently coming out of Rizevim's wide open mouth and spilling onto the floor.
"What has gotten into Issei?!"
"I don't know!"
"That's my Boy! Finally! Taking what is his! Showing fear into his Enemies!"
To say Rizevim was proud would be a huge understatement Rizevim was in ecstasy right now.
(With Issei)
Issei brought his hand up and flicked his wrist towards Riser as a cyclone of Blood flew towards Riser at insane speeds.
"Gahhhh!" Riser screamed out in pain as his arm was cleanly torn off? He didn't know what happened his arm was just gone his arm was nowhere to be seen. Did the blood truly disintegrate it?!
"Surrender! Riser!" Issei called out again.
"I'm sorry Issei… I cannot do that! My Pride is on the line! My Families pride!"
Issei then brought his hand up again and launched another cyclone of blood making his other arm disappear.
"Gaaahhh!" Riser's Regeneration wasn't working right so he just had two stubs of arms. Even the Spectators were wondering why Riser wasn't regenerating until the Elder exclaimed how Lord Satan Controlled blood. So quickly Lord Phenex too put the pieces together and realized Issei was controlling the Phenex blood and wasn't letting him regenerate.
Issei kept sending more and more cyclones of blood and let Riser regenerate some just so he didn't die. And so Here Riser was. A bloody mess. No arms. He was on his knees coughing up blood. Looking up towards a true demon… a Demon of Blood.
"Riser… This is your final warning. Surrender." Issei said as he looked at the bloody mess that was Riser.
Riser only muttered one word though.
"Pride." Riser gave a smile and awaited his oncoming death.
"Then Die with your pride my friend… May you find your pride in the afterlife…" And all of a sudden Power erupted from Issei once again.
Issei's blood wings started to morph again. They wrapped around Issei and started to change into a black color with rare red highlights. All of a sudden It morphed into a Phoenix and flew there for a minute until it Launched towards Riser.
(VIP Area)
"The Blood Phoenix!" The Elder yelled.
"No way…"
"No!" Lord Phenex bolted towards the Arena to try and stop his son's death.
Everyone else just stayed speechless. He used moves that Lord Satan used himself in the Great War. Nobody knew what to do.
(With Issei)
Issei in his Blood Phoenix form flew towards Riser ready to finish the fight. As he was milliseconds from hitting the Phenex a form came in between them.
"Please! He surrenders!" Lord Phenex yelled as loud as he could. He then got face first on the ground and started to beg.
At the last second Issei redirected his blow and flew straight up making sure he didn't hurt anyone. And in a second the blood Phoenix dispelled and Issei was flying there with his Blood Wings still out.
"Phenex. Your pride you hold to high. You need to learn your pride Is not everything. You showed you understand that today. But please teach your children the same. I do not wish to see pointless deaths in the name of pride like today again." Issei spoke in a calm tone as he descended to the ground.
"Yes! I thank you! Thank you for sparing my son!"
"Think nothing of it you surrendered for him I believe that is enough."
As started walking to the exit cameras flashed everywhere reporters stormed into the arena news broadcasters everywhere. Issei was going to be busy for a while.
"Looks like I won't be needing my magic to change my looks anymore…" Issei said to nobody in particular.
(VIP Area)
Everyone was still speechless. He did it… He was the Son of Satan… He saved Her… He proved the Council wrong in their assessment… He finally had people believe who he was…
"No way…" Lord Gremory was still speechless. He didn't just witness the son of Satan but he noticed the Phenex drop their pride… Issei made the impossible possible.
"Issei…" Rias had a tear stream down her face. She was happy… truly happy. The first time for a while she was truly happy.
"Issei is actually… The Son of Satan?" Sona said with guilt heard in her voice.
"Issei Satan… Saved My sister… And is actually Satan's Son… Ajuka… You have a lot of explaining to do…" Sirzechs told his best friends who only sweat dropped.
"I'll tell you later right now we need too…"
"I know… Help Issei… I'll hold up my end of the deal it's the least I can do. He saved my Rias…" Sirzechs said as he got serious.
"Councilmen! We must have a meeting please go to the meeting room immediately! We shall send for the Son of the Satan!" Seemingly the leader of the Council yelled.
(With Issei)
To say Issei was having a hard time was an understatement. He was being berated reporter after reporter he just had to try and find Ajuka to get onto the hard part. And so as he was trying to maneuver through the crows Issei was quickly pulled and emerged outside of the crowd by Grayfia.
"Thank you Grayfia…"
"No Problem Lord Satan"
"Psst~ Issei! Over here!" Ajuka tried to get Issei's attention.
"Ajuka. What now?"
"We are going to a council meeting to discuss what to do with you."
"I see…"
"Ise I have sent Kuroka and Vali back home already."
"Thank you that will help… Will you accompany me Grayfia?"
"Do you even need to ask Ise?" Grayfia said with a bright smile.
"Now let's go before they find us." Ajuka told the two as the got into a limo readied by Ajuka himself.
As the rounded a corner Issei saw somebody he didn't want to see. It was Her the Root of all his problems… With her Blonde Hair… And Red eyes…
"Issei? Issei? Are you Okay?" Grayfia asked clearly worried.
"I saw Her… She as in the crowd…" Instantly Ajuka and Grayfia stopped.
"It's fine Issei… That was long ago…" Grayfia tried to console him.
"Issei… as much as I want to let you have your moment we don't have time for that right now…"
"I know… Please continue what you were trying to say."
"Remember what I explained a week ago… We can do this…"
"I know, I know…"
"Now I have informed Rizevim about needing his help and he agreed already." Ajuka explained.
"Thank you."
"No problem also Sirzechs is on our side already."
"I think Serafall may be too." Issei informed the Beelzebub.
"Really?! How?"
"She seems to like me after she met me when I got engaged to Sona."
"That's wonderful! 3 Satans on your side! And Rizevim! We may be able to do this!"
The car then stopped outside a massive building. Issei walked through the corridors with Ajuka in front of him and Grayfia in toe. As he opened the door he noticed Rizevim Grinning Wildly at him as if proud. Sirzechs smiling at him as if happy. Serafall jumping and waving like a little girl. And the Elders were… Confused as I could say. So Ajuka quickly took his seat as Issei went to the podium.
"…"
"…"
"Well then… Let us Begin!"
(A Week Later)
A week went by for Issei he never had time to see anyone he knew except Ajuka and Grayfia. Kuroka and Vali couldn't come because he was too busy Rias couldn't come because she wasn't allowed and the same went for Sona. He has seen none of them since the Wedding. Rias never even got to say thank you. But Issei picked up a News Paper and turned on the news and laughed to himself with slight proud as he saw the headline.
It said: The Son of the True Satan!
(A Month Later)
"It's so boring without Issei…" Kuroka said as she was sprawled across the couch.
"Yeah…" Rias agreed as she sat on the couch in Issei's apartment.
Ever since the wedding Rias made the ORC meet at Issei's apartment until Issei got back. So far they have waited and waited but nothing. The guilt started to well in each of them as they slightly mocked Issei when he said he was Son of Satan. Now they saw all the Headlines and Announcements from the Council and the 4 Satans themselves he was also announced part of the Supernovas the same group Rias was in. The Supernova's were the strongest of the Youth devils you could say. Rias herself wanted to thank him for helping her but was also worried. She was married to Issei now… Was she happy? She didn't know… She needed to talk to Issei about it when he got back.
"Ahhhhh Isseeeeeiiiiiiii!" Kuroka moaned out.
"Kuroka shut up!" Vali yelled.
"Nya! It's not my fault I truly love Issei unlike you!"
"What?! I'll let you know!" Vali said before she pounced on the Nekomata and started a Cat fight.
"Please calm down. What would Issei think if he saw you guys like this?" Sona asked in her normal voice. Even know she too was feeling guilty.
"Nya… Your right…"
(Outside the Apartment)
"Finally… I can sleep…" Issei said as he walked through the lobby to the elevator.
"Oh please you got enough sleep! Remember all the times you used me as a pillow?" Grayfia asked with a slight blush.
"I'm stressed the fuck out, I need sleep you can do that all you want but that work was insane."
"Fine you can have your well-deserved nap… I may join you in that…" Grayfia said as she yawned.
*Ding* The Elevator came to Its floor and opened revealing Issei and Grayfia.
"I'm back." Issei said with his normal calm voice.
"Issei!" Multiple girls yelled as they launched towards him.
'Fuck…'
That Is Chapter 3 Done!
Woah that was a long chapter… 15,000 plus words… That's a new record…
Once again Thank you soooooo Much! I got Amazing feedback once again! I love all the reviews! So please Review a lot! I get motivated by the Reviews!
Now I have a question for all of you! The Blonde haired girl! Her first name is Erica But! I need a last name! Something to do with a devil Clan would be preffered!
Now before you all say "Rias and Issei was rushed!" No Risa and Issei isn't a thing YET so calm your tits.
I'll be working on a lot of character development too. Sooo yeahh.
I Made Riser less deuchy because I wanted to make him like this at least once and I personally like it like this… This way I have future ways of using him.
As you can tell Issei will most likely use his real form now. (Which is Black hair and Red eyes)
Erica will most likely be in the Harem and before you all say "BUT SHE BETRAYED HIM! SHE SHOULD DIE AND BURN IN HELL!" because no joke that's what I have done before when a character I didn't like had something like that happen to them for no reason. But! I don't want to spoil it BUT It was a type of misunderstanding that went to far I could say! That's all im going to say so… yeah!
If you think it was too reckless for Ajuka and Issei to go through with it I agree. I clearly stated they both knew it was reckless. But they had to do it kinda.
NOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS! PLEASE ASK ME! PM ME OR POST IT IN THE REVIEW! I LOVE READING EVERYTHING! AND LOVE TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS!
But seriously the more reviews I get the more motivated I am… Just ask any writer they will agree with me. It's that big a deal :P
Anyways… Toodles! Gosh I've always wanted to say that…
