Hello there, Skylinemaster here with another chapter of The Argento Case.
"Speech."
Disclaimer: I don't own anything from Highschool DxD.
"Alright, everything is set."
I said, looking at the final Devil's trap I've painted all over this house.
"Issei, what is going on?"
I turned over to see Asia's frightened expression.
It broke my heart, and I sighed as I thought about what to say to her next.
"The Devil that you healed is after you. He will turn you into his slave, a Devil that is a disgrace to God's eyes."
I said as I put my hand on her left shoulder.
"That is why I want you to go meet someone. He is…."
I stopped and thought about what to say as I packed an empty brown duffel bag.
"An acquaintance if you will. He will keep you safe."
I said as I put her clothes into the bag that has Giosue's laptop. I then took a piece of paper and scribbled down the address of Cao Cao's safe house.
"Take this. Tell him Issei sent you."
I said, handing her the note and a fifty Euro note. I gave her the bag and took of my phone to dial Cao Cao's number. I went into the other room as Cao Cao picked up the phone.
"Hello? I assume that you are sending over the information for the fund transfer."
Cao Cao remarked as I rolled my eyes.
"Not quite. You have a little package coming your way."
I said as I heard Cao Cao cough.
"What do you mean a package?"
"I'm sending you Asia. I can't guarantee her safety here, so I am sending her to you. She has the laptop with all the information in it."
"Issei, this is not the arrangement we've made…."
"Hey, this is a plus plus for you. You get the laptop and a healing Sacred Gear user in your little organization."
I heard a grunt sound and the phone disconnected.
"Asia, this might be the last time I see you. I really enjoyed our time together, however brief."
I said as she smiled.
"Issei, I don't know what to say."
She said shyly as she held the bag in her hand.
"Come, I'll walk you to a taxi." I said as I took her gently by the arm to the door.
I smiled at her face before opening the door.
!
He's here.
And he brought his peerage. The six missing girls, their lifeless eyes all staring back at me, weapons pointed at me.
"Asia, out the back now!"
I shouted as I slammed the door shut.
I readied my exorcist gun and flask of holy water. I want to capture the heir if possible, so non-lethal opinions first.
I ran up the stairs as I saw Asia running towards the room with the back entrance.
I turned towards the door as a girl pounded it down.
Gabriella D'Angelo.
She stared at me as I shot her in the head with the exorcist gun.
Double tap.
She fell to the ground, blood gushing from her head as five other girls and the heir, Diodora Astaroth, rushed into the building.
"Catch me if you can! Also, watch out for the Devil traps I sprung up!"
I said, shooting at the Devils as I retreated to the second floor, my face still firmly on the Devils by the door, my gun still pointed at them.
I retreated further into the second floor as I see the Devils coming up to the second floor.
Bang, bang!
Another one bits the dust. Maria Perez, you are with our Father now.
The group charged at me, and to which I smiled.
Anna Stilton was the leader of the group, so she was the first one into the Devil's trap I painted on the ceiling.
The four remaining looked at the ceiling for Devil traps as I thought of how many remaining bullets I have in my gun.
11 left.
Alright, more than enough.
I turned the corner and went into the closest room, locking the door behind me.
I put the flask of holy water in my pocket, taking out the pocket Bible to allow room for it.
Come on, come through the door.
The door flung open suddenly!
Swords, hundreds of swords flew at me.
I barely avoided them, and I was struck by one.
One sword managed to slash me in the arm, causing a gash to bleed.
Ah, that stings!
Alright, you asked for it.
I displayed the Bible for them, causing them to recoil backwards.
"When he said this, Jesus called out in a loud voice, 'Lazurus, come out!'"
John 11:43, a verse that I remember off the top of my head.
I smiled as the Devils held their heads in pain, except the heir, who only grunted.
The Bible, and any verses in it, causes any Devils in its presence immense pain.
Alright, strike them when they are in pain.
The one on the left side of the heir, Jessica Parker, so I killed her first as I shot her twice in the stomach and once in the chest.
The one in front of the heir, Joan Bertrand, is guarding the heir by being a human shield. I sent six bullets in her direction, hoping that some would wound the heir behind her.
I sighed as three bullets hit the girl while the rest of the bullets harmlessly hit the wall behind him.
Alright, one more girl on the right.
She's charging at me. Fast!
I barely had time to aim my gun at her before she attempted to slash me with a blade.
I dodged the blow and countered by hitting her with the Bible. She recoiled in pain as I aimed the gun at her head, shooting her one time.
Alright, one bullet left.
I turned towards the heir, who materialized a sword in his hand.
Woah! That was close.
I hit him with the Bible, stunning him with pain from our Father.
I then walked to his side as he was holding his head in pain, kicking his ass and causing him to stumble forward. I smiled as he turned around, trying to possibly materialize a sword.
I smirked as he looked at his hand in shock before a look of horror appeared on his face.
"Devil's trap."
I said, pointing my gun upward as I enjoyed his look of despair.
Can't use any of your powers now, can you Devil boy?
"Your ass is mine. Let's have some fun, shall we?"
"W-what are you going to do with me?! You know who my family is and what they will do to you when they find you!"
He shouted as I snickered in his face.
"They won't find you. I'll kill you, completely, but before that, I'm going to take out all my problems and anger on you."
I said as I took out a flask of holy water and my exorcist sword. I poured the water on the sword before throwing the water onto the Devil, who screamed out in pain.
"Let's have some fun now."
I hope you enjoyed that. This fanfiction is coming to an end with less than three chapters left.
As you might have noticed, there are many Supernatural references here, with the Devils trap.
