Chapter 12 – Rise of the Lucifer Clan

"So… today's the day." Issei said to himself as he and the others sat in the Clubroom. "It's hard to believe it's been three days already…"

Thanks to the House of Gremory and Sitri, as well as Sirzechs and Grayfia sending word to many Devil families about the urgency of watching the duel, and now almost the entire Underworld was preparing to watch the battle that was about to commence within the hour. Though quite a number of them were confused on why two families from the 72 Pillars and one of the Four Great Satans were pushing for everyone to watch a match between Riser Phenex and an unknown Devil that was challenging the House of Phoenix for the hand of the Gremory heiress. The Occult club were waiting for Naruto to arrive to the Clubroom, then Grayfia would arrive to transport him to the dueling location.

"I know what you mean," Kiba said in agreement from his spot on the couch next to Koneko, who was eating from a box of strawberry pocky. "And just imagine how Naruto-sempai's been while in that sphere, it may seem like three days to us, but to him it's been over two months." True to his word, Naruto and Kaguya had spent their whole time in the tiny worlds, training every hour of everyday, and unfortunately no one could enter or see inside the spheres to know how the two were doing.

Rias took a sip of the tea Akeno had made for her, lifting her head to speak. "Naruto-kun will be fine, as long as he shows up on time then everything will go as planned."

"That's right." Akeno nodded her head in agreement from her seat on the couch next to Arcueid, taking a sip of her own cup of tea with a small smile on her face. Across from them was Issei and the other two. "And there is plenty of time until the match begins."

"Yeah, I suppose your right… you ladies sure are composed even with everything that's going on." Issei commented before he took notice to something in the room, or rather what wasn't in the room. "Wait a minute, where is Asia and Mito-chan?"

"They'll be coming with Naruto-kun and their family," Rias answered as she shifted in her seat a bit. "While Asia-chan is a part of my Peerage, she is still a member of the Lucifer clan just as Mito-chan and Naruto-kun are. Granted it won't matter that much since they'll be watching the match with us."

"I guess that makes sense." Issei nodded his head in understanding.

Before anything else could be said, the sound of doors to the room opening made them turn to see Sona and Tsubaki walking into the room. "Excuse us for the interruption."

"Good Afternoon Sona," Rias greeted as she turned to face the two.

"Welcome." Akeno nodded her head to the two.

The student council president nodded in greeting as she and her vice-president walked towards the group, "Almost the entire Underworld should be watching the duel thanks to our Houses and Sirzechs-sama."

"Good, thank you Sona." The redhead thanked her rival, who nodded her head.

"It is no issue, Naruto-san is an ally and a friend. Besides that, having him and his clan reveal themselves to everyone would be beneficial in helping me and my goals as well." Sona had a calculative look on her face as she spoke, "I have volunteered to handle the broadcasting of the duel for everyone to see, with the help of a few from my Household."

Issei tilted his head a bit at that, "Handle the broadcasting?"

"That's right, Rating Games or duels such as these are normally broadcasted to the families in question." Rias explained to Issei, who turned to look at her, "But because of Kaguya-san and Naruto-kun's plans, the broadcast will be viewed by everyone who wants to watch."

"So the Student President and her family are doing the broadcast to help their plans." Issei slowly deduced, making Rias nod her head to show he was right.

"And from those people, word would spread to others about Naruto and his clan returning…" Arcueid continued before bringing her hands behind her head, letting out a small sigh as she leaned back into the couch, "Aahhh, you Devils really like to make things complicated and to the extreme."

"Ara ara, you won't be one to talk in a bit Arcueid-san, you're going to become a Devil as well when Naruto gets his Evil Piece set." Akeno pointed out with a giggle, causing the blond girl to blink as she registered what the buxom Queen had said.

"You're right… that kind of sucks." Arcueid turned her head to the side and noticed a magical circle began to form behind Sona, and Grayfia appeared with a flash of light. "I guess it's almost time then."

"That is correct, is Naruto-sama prepared?" Grayfia questioned as she noticed that a few people were missing from the room. "Are they not here yet?"

"They should be here in a bit…" Rias replied as she leaned on one of her hands.

Sona nodded her head towards Rias before turning around, "I will be returning to the Sitri Mansion to prepare the broadcasting, tell Naruto-san I give him the best of luck."

"Thank you again for volunteering." The redhead said to the Sitri heiress as she made her way towards the doors, "It must've not been easy to convince your parents for the Household to be a part of this."

"The House of Sitri had also received the same notice from your brother, and while they tried to question me on why I was volunteering to handle the broadcasting, they both understood when I told them that it would be revealed during the match." Sona explained as she stopped just at the doors and turned to look at Rias, "This event will certainly cause a bit of chaos for the Underworld, we will have to be ready." With that said, the glasses wearing Devil exited the room.

"She is correct on that Rias-sama, while Kaguya-sama still had some of the Lucifer clan on her side, the greater percent had joined in the war between the Old-Satan Faction and the Anti-Satan Faction." Grayfia said, making everyone turn to her as she continued. "They were forced into hiding while Kaguya-sama had sent the few remaining members to some of the secret locations that belong to the Lucifer clan. When Naruto-sama reveals who he is, those members will surface from hiding to be a part of the revived Lucifer clan."

"Though the number of members have probably died down, the fact that one of the Four Clans of the Underworld are coming back after so long… Will it cause trouble for the other Four Great Satans?" Akeno asked with a small frown on her face, "Sirechs-sama had already agreed to them coming back, but what about them?"

"Four Great Satans, you're talking about the demon lords, right?" Issei asked as he blinked a few times.

"They're the rulers of the Underworld, each in charge of certain affairs. The leader of the Satans is Sirzechs Lucifer, he is Buchou's older brother." Kiba explained to the brunette, who turned to Rias in shock. "He gained the title of Lucifer after the war when the original Lucifer had died."

"Whoa… so where does that leave Naruto and his grandmother, she is the head of the Lucifer clan after all."

"Kaguya-san has already showed no interest in going against Onii-san for the position of Satan, and Naruto-kun has no issue with that either." Rias answered while crossing her arms under her chest, turning from her Pawn to her sister-in-law. "As for the other three Satans, I'm guessing that you have already told them."

Grayfia nodded her head before speaking. "That is correct, Kushina-sama and Sirzechs-sama have met with them during the three day period and informed them of the situation. The three in question have no real issues with the Lucifer clan returning since Kaguya-sama was not an enemy in the war, and are in full agreement to their return."

"That's good to hear." Arcueid said while Koneko nodded in agreement. The room began to glow a little as a golden magical circle appeared behind Grayfia, making the others turn to see six figures emerge from the light. "Looks like they're, not a bad entrance."

The first to walk out of the circle were Asia and Mito, the blonde already bowing her head. "I'm sorry we're late everyone!"

"It's not a big problem Asia-neechan, we still arrived before the duel was set to start so we're fine." Mito said to her older sister.

"But still…" Asia started to say as Kushina, Minato and Kaguya followed them out.

"Don't worry Asia-chan, it isn't like we didn't have a good reason." Kushina gave her oldest daughter a smile, "Besides, there was still plenty of time for your brother to get here."

Minato scratched the back of his head, "I have to agree with Asia, we were cutting it a little close…!" He slowly stopped speaking as he noticed his wife was giving him an angry pout, "But like you said, we had plenty of time!"

"That's right," Kushina nodded her head with a smile as she turned her head, not seeing her husband let out a sigh. After so many years with the woman, his wife still had the upper hand in most of their arguments.

"You are whipped Minato." Kaguya said before turning to Grayfia, "Hey there Fia-chan, I take it you're here to transport Naruto-kun to the designated area."

"That is correct Kaguya-sama." Gray answered, shifting her gaze to the final figure started exiting the seal, "I take it you are prepared Naruto-sama?"

"Yeah, I'm ready." Naruto said as he completely stepped out of the slowly disappearing circle, and everyone took in his appearance. His hair seemed to have grown out a little and two bangs had grown a little and were starting to reach down to his cheeks. He was wearing an almost all black outfit with silver and gold lining, it consisted of black pants with silver lining going up the legs and a black belt that had a large silver buckle, and a black button-down shirt with silver lining on the edges, and a small plate of armor over the shirt. He was wearing a black blazer with gold lining going down the sleeves, black boots with gold plates to protect his shins and a pair of black fingerless gloves with gold and silver guards on them (1).

"Holy crap Naruto-sempai! You look badass!" Issei exclaimed with a grin as he took in the older teen's appearance. The others also had looks of approval… well Kiba, Koneko and Arcueid did, Rias was looking at him with a red face, with an almost unnoticeably small bit of drool, while Akeno just silently took in the view with an unreadable look… let's keep out of her mind for the moment just to be safe.

"Thanks Issei…" Naruto gave the brunette a small grin before looking around the room. "Everyone, I'll settle this duel and everything else for today is over. So be sure to cheer for me, okay?"

"Of course, you just kick that Raiser guy's ass." Arcueid replied as she gave the Lucifer heir a peace sign.

"We'll be watching you from here Naruto-sempai!" Kiba said with a smile.

Koneko nodded her head with a small smile, "… Send him flying."

"Good luck Naruto-kun. And remember, the area you'll be fighting at will disappear when the battle is over, so you can go as wild as you want, fufufu." Akeno laughed into her hand after she said that, making Issei sweatdrop a little.

'Wild, huh?'

Rias walked around her desk and made her way to Naruto, standing in front of him for a few seconds before bringing him into a hug, pressing her head against his chest. "I'll be waiting here until you get back, I know you'll win."

"Yeah," Naruto wrapped his arms around her as he started to hug back. "… Any recommendations?"

"Not really, do whatever you like." Rias answered as she pulled back from him a little before giving him a kiss just as she had three days ago, however this time Naruto kissed her back for the few seconds their lips touched before they parted, "That is my way of saying good luck."

"I'll be sure to get more of those later on then." Naruto said before turning to Grayfia, "Is everything in place?"

"Yes they are Naruto-sama, many Devils will be watching the battle between you and Raiser-sama." The silver-haired woman replied before a magical circle formed in the open area away from them. "The two of us will transport to the location where Sirzechs-sama currently is, Raiser will be arriving the same time we will."

"That's good, and from there the two of us will be transported to the dimension where the duel will take place." Naruto deduced, making the woman nod her head in confirmation. "I don't mean to sound rude, but why are you going with me to the area. I understand that Sirzechs-sama is there, but still."

"Sirzechs-sama has given me orders to be the one to judge the match."

"But once I reveal what I am, wouldn't some people think it to be unfair." Naruto pointed out with a raised eyebrow, "With the ties our families had and all, I don't want anyone cause an issue because of it."

"And that's why Grayfia is the perfect one for such a task." Rias said, making a few heads turn to her. "She will have no trouble with keeping this even on both sides and giving no advantages to anyone unless ordered to, and Onii-san wouldn't do that with what we have planned."

"Okay then, sorry for that." Naruto bowed his head a little towards the woman.

"There is no need for that, it was a logical question. Now if you're ready, we shall be leaving." With that said, Grayfia moved over to the circle and stood at its center, waiting for Naruto to stand next to her.

"Good luck Onii-san/Naruto-niisan!" Mito and Asia said to their brother with smiles, though Asia had a small bit of worry on her face. Naruto just smiled back before reaching up to one of the blazer's breast pockets and gave it a pat, making the girl perk up at that.

"Do us proud son." Minato placed an arm around Kushina's shoulders as they nodded to Naruto.

He turned to Kaguya, who had a smirk on her face with her arms crossed. "Show him the power of the Lucifer clan's heir."

"Right." With a determined look, Naruto made his way to the center of the circle next to Grayfia, who fully activated the circle and transport the two of them away with a flash. At the same time, a giant projection screen appeared above everyone's heads, signaling them that the Sitris were beginning their part.

(At the Sitri Mansion)

"Soooo-tttaaaaan, why didn't you tell me about him?!" Sona turned away from the multiple projection screens that she and several other members from the House of Sitri had set up to a girl standing next to her with a childish pout on her face. She was a beautiful Devil with long dark hair that was tied up in two ponytails, held together with two pink ribbons, and her eyes were violet just like Sona's. She had a child-like body, although the large bust she was sporting contradicted this a bit. The female Devil was wearing a magical girl outfit with a magic wand in one of her hands.

"I've already told you Onee-san, it was our plan to hide him from the Underworld until the time was right." Sona replied, feeling the usual migraine that came along when her sister was like this… That's right, this woman was non-other than Serafall Leviathan, another one of the Satans and Sona's older sister... though you wouldn't know it if you were meeting them both for the first time. "You know as well as the other Satans that an heir of the Four Clans returning is not something that people will immediately accept."

"BUT STILL!" Serafall whined as she waved her arms around in a fuss.

"Onee-san please, the match will begin soon. I need to make sure the projections are connected smoothly, you'll see what he can do during his battle with Raiser Phenex." Sona replied as she turned to her Peerage, who were assisting with the broadcasting.

Serafall's expression changed in an instant as a giddy smile grew on her face, "I suppose your right. I can't wait to see how Naru-chan looks like now! He was so cute when he was little!" That made Sona snap her head to look at her sister with a combined look of shock and curiosity.

"N… Naru-chan?!"

(Gremory Estate)

Three figures were seen sitting in their seats, looking up at a projection screen above their heads. Two of them were adults, one middle-aged man with red hair and a woman whose appearance very much resembled Rias' but with brown hair, these two were Lord Gremory and his wife Venelana Gremory, the parents of Sirzechs and Rias. Next to them was a young boy with short crimson red hair and red eyes, this was the son of Sirzechs and Grayfia and Rias' nephew, Millicas Gremory.

"I was surprised when I had heard from Sirzechs that Rias had been all for this considering how against marrying Raiser she was." Lord Gremory commented as he thought back to when his son and his wife had returned from wherever Rias had been and had announced that a powerful clan heir, though they withheld the name for certain reasons, had issued a challenge to marry his daughter instead of Raiser Phenex. "What could be going through that boy's mind to make him want to do this…? Whatever the case may be, we shall see which of these two will emerge victorious."

(Grigori Headquarters)

"A commotion in the Underworld, you say?" A man said as he turned his chair around to face one of his Fallen Angels, he looked to be in his twenties with black hair and golden bangs, and a beard. In one of the chairs near his desk was the young man with dark silver hair and light blue eyes.

"Yes Azazel-sama, apparently Sirzechs Lucifer has spread word out to many of the Devil Households about a duel that will take place between Raiser from the House of Phenex and a challenger for his sister's hand." The Fallen Angel reported while standing completely still.

"A duel? Why would something like that be important?" The silver-haired youth questioned while crossing his arms.

"Hmm…" Azazel seemed to be deep in thought, it seems weird that information like this would land in their hands… Unless Sirzechs and the other Satans wanted this information to reach them, that only seemed to peek his curiosity. "I want to watch this battle as well, link us up to the broadcast and cloak our presence."

"Sir?" The Fallen Angel noticed the look Azazel was giving him and quickly nodded his head, "Yes sir, as soon as we can." With that said, he left the room as fast as he could, leaving Azazel and the teenager alone in the room.

The silver-haired teen looked back toward the Governor General of the Fallen Angels with a raised eyebrow, "Is there a reason you want to watch something like this, it seems more like a Devil matter."

"That's just it, and news of that matter managed to reach us… Don't tell me you aren't a bit curious Vali?"

Vali silently turned his head as a giant screen formed above their heads, "… As long as I get to see some strong fighters."

(Throne of Heaven)

"A duel between two Devils for the right to marry the sister of Sirzechs Lucifer…?" A handsome-looking man with long blonde hair and green eyes said as he and an extremely beautiful woman with curly blonde hair and a voluptuous figure looked down at one of the Angel soldiers. These two were Michael and Gabriel, siblings and the two strongest Angels in Heaven.

"That is correct, the news has been spread to many in the Underworld. It was amazing that such information managed to reach us." The soldier said as he kept his head low.

"Hmm, what shall we do Brother?" Gabriel asked as she turned to her brother and leader, who simply smile.

"Please connect to the broadcast, I would like to watch the duel." Michael ordered the Angel, who nodded his head before retreating from the area. "I'm curious to seeing the abilities of the current generation of the Underworld… What about you Gabriel?"

"I don't see any reason not to agree, two men fighting for the love of a woman… It reminds me of a fairy tale." Gabriel replied with a smile, though Michael could see a flash of sadness in her eyes. "Yes… a romantic story."

"Thinking of the past Sister?" Michael questioned with a concerned look, he might be the leader of the Seraphs and the Archangel of Heaven, but he still cared deeply about his sister.

The beautiful female was silent for a few moments before shaking her head, "It is nothing, let us watch the battle." A large screen appeared in front of them, with the image of Sirzechs standing with one of the two Devils that would be fighting, and a magical circle appearing in a flash several feet away from them, the glow died down to reveal Grayfia and the other combatant, his appearance making both Angels widen their eyes. "But that's-"

Michael shifted his gaze to his sister, who was staring at the teenager in shock. He looked back at the screen, the boy did indeed look a lot like him. "…An interesting duel indeed."

NULRGNULRGNULRGNULRGNULRGNULRGNULRGNULRGNULRGNULRGNULRG

In a large circular room with several chairs spread out to different areas, Sirzechs and Raiser watched from the center of the room as Naruto and Grayfia emerged from the circle and began walking over to them. Naruto stopped as soon as he was standing in front of Raiser, staring hard at the Phenex while Grayfia continued until she was by Sirzechs' side.

Sirzechs had a cool smile on his face as he glanced back at Grayfia for a second before turning back to Naruto and Raiser, "Welcome Naruto-san, to the Satan's Conference Room. This is where the other Satans and I gather to discuss matters that occur in the Underworld. Only very few are allowed in here."

"So this is the place you and the other Satans use… kind of a gloomy place if you don't mind me saying." Naruto replied while rubbing the back of his head, but his comment only made Sirzechs laugh.

"I know right? But still, it serves its purpose perfectly when it is needed." The redheaded Devil Lord smirked, ignoring the glance his wife had sent him. "There are only a few REAL times when we use this room, and this area is perfect for the two of you to meet before the battle."

"While it is an honor to be here Sirzechs-sama, it doesn't matter to me where I defeat this low-class trash." Raiser spoke up with his usual arrogant tone, "Frankly I'm surprised you even graced him with this privilege. Not to mention on how big you made this event."

Naruto snorted at the man's words, shifting the attention back to him. "The reason why Sirzechs-sama did that was because my family and I had requested it. We have information that the entire Underworld will need to know."

"Information…? And what kind of information that your family has would be so important?" Raiser gave Naruto an amused look as he crossed his arms. "I doubt anything you say will be that significant."

"… The Lucifer clan… is returning to the Underworld."

That threw Raiser and many of the viewers to look at the blond Devil in shock. One of the Four Clans that had disappeared after being sent into hiding was coming back?! Even in Heaven and Grigori, many were surprised at the declaration… though a few narrowed their eyes as they studied Naruto's form.

"Or to be more precise… they're already back, well a few of them anyway. The reformed Lucifer clan is made up of the members that weren't part of the war between the Rebel Faction and the Old-Satan Faction." Naruto explained with a smirk. Back at the Clubroom, Rias and the others, as well as Sona at her mansion, all watched with tense gazes.

Raiser shook his head as he tried to dismiss his opponent's words, "And just how do you know something like that? IF they were really returning then we… would have… known…!" The third son of Phenex took a step back as a thought struck him like a bolt of lightning.

"So you figured it out… that's right, something like that would be too major to announce. And that's why I took advantage of this, with Rias-chan's permission of course." The smirk on Naruto's face grew as he took a step forward.

"B-But that's not possible, you're a Devil from a no-named clan!" Raiser shouted back.

"I've kept myself hidden for almost two months now, since I had awakened as the heir to my clan. Something like this would be too important for people to find out from an announcement on a duel for a marriage engagement duel." Naruto said as he unleashed his wings, letting them stretch out far as they could as he stared at Raiser, "Allow me to reintroduce myself Raiser Phenex… I am Naruto Uzumaki Lucifer, the descendant of Lucifer himself and heir to the Lucifer clan. As well as the Devil challenging you for Rias Gremory's hand in marriage."

(Throne of Heaven)

"Incredible… a descendant of Lucifer…" Michael leaned back in his seat with slightly narrowed eyes as his gaze shifted to the golden Devil wings on Naruto's back, "Golden wings… similar to my own, I wonder what cause of that is…"

"So it really is him… Minato-kun and Kushina's son… Naruto-chan." Gabriel restraint herself as a she stared at the boy, Michael looking back at his sister for a moment before looking back to the screen… so that is what happened to Minato, he had gotten married to a Devil, and a member of the Lucifer clan at that. When this was all over, he and his sister will need to have a discussion about this.

(Grigori Headquarters)

"Ho-ho, I didn't think that a Lucifer heir would make an appearance like this… he must be Lady Kaguya's grandson." Azazel commented with an amused grin as he studied the image of Naruto and his multiple gold wings.

"Lady Kaguya?" Vali repeated with narrow eyes as he recalled what Naruto had said, the time he had 'awakened' was around the same time he had gotten that weird feeling. It sort of makes sense when he thought about it, but to think there was another Lucifer around his age and from his and Azazel's words there were others as well.

"Yeah, she is one of the children of Lucifer and was the true head of the Lucifer clan before she had disappeared of the grid. But it appears that she and some of the clan members of hers had returned." Shifting a bit in his seat, Azazel's grin grew a little, "It seems that there was some important news after all… Let's just see how strong this heir of hers actually is."

Vali said nothing as he turned back to the screen, '… Naruto Uzumaki Lucifer, huh? Show me a good fight.'

(Unknown Location)

Laughter has heard throughout the room, originating from a male figure leaning back in his seat. His crimson-red eyes gleamed in the darkness as he stared at the image of Naruto in amusement. Next to him on either side was another man who was wearing a silver robe, his expression was more shocked and surprised than anything else. Just like the Angels and Fallen Angels, they two had received information about the duel and decided to see for themselves what was so important.

"So my sister has emerged from hiding, and she's brought an heir along with her. That must mean he's Kushina's boy." The male figure standing next to the seated man shifted his gaze to the side to glance at the seated man before looking back at the screen, narrowing his eyes when he looked at Grayfia.

'I bet you never thought you would be in the presence of a true Lucifer, did you… Onee-san.' The cloaked man thought to himself before his sight went towards Naruto's form, 'Then again, I myself didn't believe that Kaguya-sama would appear after all this time, or that she would have a grandson.'

"Let us see how this one can handle himself, hopefully it won't be too disappointing." The seated man said as he leaned his head against his hand.

Behind the two was a girl, keeping herself within the shadows as she too looked at the projection screen. 'So the little boy and abandoned sheath from over a decade ago have made their appearance to the supernatural world. I look forward to see something interesting come from those two…'

(Satan Conference Room)

Raiser stared at Naruto with wide eyes, his mouth open slightly as he processed what the other blond had said. Naruto turned to Sirzechs and Grayfia, "Sorry for interrupting you, please continue what you were saying."

"Thank you," Sirzechs said as he silently studied Naruto's wings, he definitely fit the bill of multiple wings, though the color brought up a few questions. "Now back to what I was saying before, the two of you will be transported to a separate dimension via transportation gate." Behind him, Grayfia raised her hand and summoned a giant seal a few yards away from them, though this one was formed facing them instead of on the ground. "Once you both enter the dimension through the seal, it will close behind you and won't open again until a victor is named. I will be leaving Grayfia to be the judge of the match, and she will be fair in her judgment, no matter who has won the duel. Do you both understand?"

"Yes Sirzechs-sama." That was the only reply that came from both Naruto and Raiser, who seemed to have recovered if that arrogant look was anything to go by.

The Crimson Satan nodded his head with a cool smile. "Good, then may you both put up a good fight." With a flap of his armored cape, Sirzechs spun around and made it to one of the chairs before seating himself, "Grayfia will continue from here."

Taking a step forward, the silver-haired beauty started to speak. "As Sirzechs-sama has explained, I will be the one to judge this duel between the two of you. There will be no time limit, which means the battle will continue until either one of you surrenders or is unable to battle. No outside help is allowed, this includes the uses of familiars."

"I suppose that makes sense," Naruto commented with a nod. It wasn't like he was going to summon Bester or anything… and Saber was a part of him so she didn't count as outside help if he needed her, though he really doubted he would. 'So just stay back and watch the show Saber.'

'I understand Naruto-sama,' Saber's voice was heard from within his mind. 'But tell me, do you plan to use that?

'We'll see… It depends on the battle and how things go.' Naruto thought, to which he could feel his tenant nod her head. The Lucifer heir broke out of his thoughts when Grayfia spoke again.

"It is time for the duel to commence. As soon as the two of you are ready, pass through the gate." Grayfia moved a few steps to the side, leaving the two blonds standing there.

But then Raiser began to chuckle making Naruto turn his head a bit to face him, "Is something funny?"

"I'll admit that I was shocked to see a survivor of the Lucifer clan was still around, members of the Four Clans were said to be lost after the wars… But I'm not surprised that you all went into hiding." Noticing the blank look the other blond Devil was sending him, he continued. "After all, unlike the weaklings in your clan and the other three, most of the 72 Pillars are still around!"

"… And your point is?" Naruto questioned with an even tone, causing Raiser to narrow his eyes at him. "It's true that many of the Four Clans were either killed or sent into hiding after the war, but that has nothing to do our future… All that matters is how we live from this day to the many more to come. I vow… to not only win this duel, but to rebuild the Lucifer clan into one that will be better than the old."

Several viewers stared at Naruto in awe, was this really a descendant of Lucifer? Those that had lived before and during the Great War couldn't believe this boy had the blood of one of the most infamous Devils flowing through his veins. Grayfia had an unnoticeable smile of her face, she expected no less from the grandson of Kaguya.

Sirzechs looked at Naruto with a smirk… the powerful yet passionate look in the young Lucifer's eyes… It reminded him of himself during the war between the Anti-Satan Faction and the Old-Satan Faction. 'Let's see how you do, Naruto Uzumaki Lucifer.'

Raiser smirked as he began walking towards the gate, "Big words for someone who has never even been in a Rating Game before, unlike you I have been in multiple battles and I've won every single one I wanted to. Someone as inexperienced as you has no cha-"

"Are you done Raiser?" Naruto interrupted as he looked towards the teleportation gate, "Let's get going already. I would rather be getting on with this and starting the battle."

"Why are you in such a rush? It's pointless to say things like that to people who superior to you," Raiser replied as he placed his hands in his pockets. "When I win this duel it will show everyone the true power of the House of Phenex, my true power… I'll also enjoy every second of making Rias mine…" The smirk on Raiser's face grew as he took a hand out of one of his pockets. "And that goes for the women in her Peerage as w-"

He was cut off once again as Naruto instantly appearing in front of him, grabbing his face and leaping towards the teleportation gate at incredible speed, leaving a large cloud of dust that had been kicked up by Naruto's movements. The room flashed as the two went through the gate, and emerged from a second gate into a separate dimension. It looked like a giant chessboard with large chess pieces as tall as buildings standing around the battlefield. Raiser tried to remove Naruto's hand as soon as he realized what was happening, but Naruto held firm. With a powerful shove, the Lucifer heir released Raiser and sent him crashing into the concrete flooring. More dust picked up at Raiser quickly stood up, grabbing onto his face with a surprised look… he couldn't even see the other blond move until he grabbed him.

"Impossible… how did he manage to grab me like that?!" Raiser muttered before snapping his head to Naruto, who landed on his feet and dismissed his wings.

"What's with that look Raiser? I already told you before… bring your best or I'll end this match in an instant." Naruto said as he released some of his Darkness energy.

(Occult Research Clubroom)

"… It's finally started." Kiba said as they watched Naruto and Raiser stand opposite of each other.

"That was so cool how Naruto-sempai grabbed Raiser and threw him!" Issei had an excited grin on his face as his body trembled.

"Of course it was, my Onii-chan is a fucking badass!" Mito cheered from her seat. Koneko and Asia were sitting on either side of her, the white-haired girl nodding her head in agreement.

Asia, however, chastised her sister, "You shouldn't curse Mito-chan, especially at your age!"

"Oh come on Asia-neechan, it's not that bad! Our cousins, Tayuya and Karin are a lot worse. When Tayuya was my age, she out cursed a sailor… twice!" A few people in the room blinked several times at that. Though Minato and Kushina nodded their heads at their youngest child's words.

"It's true, Tayuya-chan has always been a mouthy one, even for a Devil." Kushina said, making Akeno and Rias turn in her direction.

"So this Tayuya is a Devil as well?" Arcueid asked from her seat, tilting her head to the side slightly with a look of confusion.

"She and Karin are members of the Lucifer clan, they are the daughters of my deceased cousin, Fuka." Kaguya answered, sitting in a throne-like chair that she had summoned to watch the duel. "They, as well as other members that had gone into hiding, will make their way to the Lucifer Mansion once everything has been settled."

"So do you know how many members will appear when that happens?" Kiba was curious on how many people of the Lucifer were still alive.

"Unfortunately I have no idea, it's been a very long time since I've seen many of those that stayed loyal to me. I was only able to keep an eye on a few…" Kaguya answered before closing her eyes, "A few of them had died from natural causes like Fuka… or someone killed them."

"I see… I'm sorry to hear that." Rias said with an apologetic look on her face, to which Kaguya waved it off with a smile, as if she was saying it was no problem.

"Come on Asia-neechan, just say it once."

"I can't do it, Mito-chan!" Everyone looked back to Asia and Mito, the later seemed to be pressuring the former nun to do something. "I've never cursed before in my life!"

"But you're a Devil now, it's almost required!" Mito said while clasping her hands around one of Asia's. "I'll say it with you, just say the word fuck."

The girl seemed hesitant as she stuttered her words, "I-I can't, it w-wouldn't be right!"

"Please~" Mito then did the most powerful technique known to women, the puppy-eye look… Poor Asia didn't stand a chance.

"A-Alright… f-fu… fu-fu…fuc- I can't! I can't do something so naughty!" Asia shook her head in a comical manner before taking her hand away from Mito and clasping them together in a praying manner. "O Lord, forgive me for my-AHH!" Asia stopped and clasped her head as she felt a painful headache appear, making everyone watched with a sweatdrop as the girl held her head.

Kushina let out a sigh, "Asia-chan, we've already been through this. A Devil praying to God will only result in more severe headaches." The woman walked over to her daughter and began to rub the top of her head, sending a little of her magic into Asia to sooth her headache.

"I'm sorry, I can't help it!" Asia replied with teary eyes as she felt the pain start to soften.

"It's to be expected, she did use to be a nun after all." Minato said with a knowing smile.

Rias looked at the scene with a smile before turning back to the projection, where Naruto and Raiser were beginning to release their power. The redheaded heiress' smile slowly disappeared as she watched the battle as it was about to start, behind her Akeno gave the girl a concerned look.

"Naruto-kun will be okay Buchou, he's been through a lot since he became a Devil." Rias turned to look at her Queen and nodded her head before moving her gaze back to the screen. "He will definitely win this."

"I know he will Akeno, I just can't help but feel a little nervous… this is the battle that will decide my future, after all."

"Just have faith in my grandson," Kaguya spoke up as she and the others stared up at the screen. "It wasn't as if he was sitting on his ass while we were in the miniaturized world. I pushed him to the limit, and he managed to create something incredible."

"Something incredible?" Issei repeated.

Neither he nor anyone got an answer as Kaguya silently looked up at the screen. The only other person in the room that had gone silent was Arcueid, who had been watching the screen before secretly shifting her gaze to one of the windows, were a black cat wearing a headband was sitting and watching the battle from the outside.

"You'll end this… in an instant?" Raiser spoke up as he released his wings, which were made out of flames. A wide grin grew on his face as he created flames in both of his hands, "I'd like to see you try." With a quick burst of speed, the son of Phenex dash towards Naruto as the flames in his hands grew larger. Naruto didn't move an inch as Raiser got close, before creating a Sword of Darkness in his hands. Raiser quickly manipulated the flames and combined them together to resemble a spear, before swinging it down at Naruto, who countered with a swing of his own weapon. "You're not the only one who can manipulate their powers into physical weapons."

Naruto said nothing as he leaped back several feet and summoned dozens of Darkness Spears above their heads before sending them crashing into the ground where Raiser was. The older blond maneuvered out of the way, letting a few of the spears cut him in a few places before they instantly healed. "… That's a pretty good regeneration you've got there."

"Of course, it is one of the reasons that the House of Phenex is so famous!" Raiser said cockily as he spun the flaming spear around a few times.

"But I wonder… how fast can you regenerate a demolished major organ?" Naruto took a step forward with his right foot, but to Raiser's surprise it carried him a lot farther and faster than he had expected. Naruto slammed his left foot firmly on the ground a few feet away before throwing a fist forward and sending it into Raiser's chest, digging into it and crushing Raiser's heart before the force of the blow sent him flying back in a spiral manner. Naruto had stream coming from his fist as he silently looked at the twitching body of his opponent, a burst of flames erupting from his chest.

Raiser had managed to get back to his feet quickly before smirking at Naruto, "Was that all you go-!" The man stopped mid-sentence as he felt pain coming from his newly-recovered injury and coughed up blood. He clenched his chest as he glared at Naruto, who had a grin on his face. "What that hell did you do?" Naruto's grin grew a little as he slowly opened his fist and let a small object fall from his grip, though a chain kept the object from falling to the ground… it was a blue and silver cross. "A cross?! How the hell do you have a cross?!"

"One of my sisters used to be a nun before Rias-chan reincarnated her into a Devil. She had originally given it to me as a good luck charm since it was her prized possession, but I figured that I'd take advantage of her gift." Naruto flipped the cross into the air before catching it with a firm grip, before placing it into one of his chest pockets. "The power of a holy artifact enhancing my punch, I wanted to see what the results would be if I made contact with a regenerator like you."

"But that should be impossible, there's no way a Devil could handle holding a cross without burning up!" Raiser growled as he wondered what trick Naruto had pulled.

"And that's the second thing I wanted the Underworld and the other Factions to know." Naruto created a sword in one of his hands as he got himself into position, "Because under normal circumstances you would be right, but I don't have the normal weaknesses that Devils have. I can walk into churches without losing strength, I can hold holy weapons and artifacts, I can handle being around light…" The blond raised his other hand and did something that shocked everyone to the core, he created a Sword of Light. "And I can even use Light Magic whenever I want."

"T-That's impossible! W-WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU?!" Raiser shouted as he created more flames around him and fired projectiles at Naruto, who swung his swords at each and every one of the flames before shifting his swords into a reverse grip and slammed the butts of the weapons together. The two swords shapes changed a bit as Naruto pulled at the area where the two different energies crossed, making a swirling stick of energy pull outwards near his head before releasing it, sending out an arrow at Raiser. But the arrow actually shot passed his face, creating a small cut on Raiser's cheek and crashed into the wall, causing an explosion behind Raiser.

Naruto ran at Raiser while splitting the weapon into two again, slamming his swords into Raiser quickly made spear, "I'm Naruto Uzumaki Lucifer, and that's all you need to know!"

(Satan Conference Room)

"Now that was something I didn't expect, a Devil that doesn't have the normal weaknesses and can use Light magic. My sister certainly found a unique choice with this one." Sirzechs commented with a smirk before turning to his wife, "What do you think Grayfia-chan?"

"It will most likely cause trouble in the future with some of the other Factions…" Grayfia spoke in a logical tone as she watched as Naruto dodged Raiser's attacks at incredible speeds. "Naruto-sama is from a clan of Devils that normally specialize in Darkness magic, but he actually has control over Light magic as well. This and his immunity can lead to a lot of questions as to how he did it and if there is a way to duplicate it. There is also the question on if it would pass down to his children… Needless to say, Naruto-sama will attract a lot of attention by the end of this."

"If he hasn't already." Sirzechs replied, as both of them knew that the other Factions must have their own reactions to this new kind of Devil.

(Grigori Headquarters)

"A Devil that can use the powers of Darkness and Light?!" Vali narrowed his eyes as he watched Naruto created an orb of the two energies in his hand and slam it into Raiser's gut, grinding into the man and sent him spiraling back until he crashed into a wall.

"And the most interesting part is that the Light magic he's using is the true, pure version of it. Not even the Fallen Angels are able to do that anymore." Azazel commented as he studied Naruto with narrow eyes, "Truly fascinating, I wonder if it's the work of a Sacred Gear… no it has to be something else."

Vali continued to watch as Raiser created fire spears in each hand and threw them as Naruto, who created a wall of Light to shield him from the attack. It was obvious on who was going to win this duel, he could tell that the Lucifer heir wasn't even fighting Raiser at full strength… it was kind of disappointing. "That Naruto guy certainly has the advantage in speed and power, and his combat capabilities aren't bad either."

"That's true, with how strong he is now, in the future he could actually surpass the original Lucifer." The leader of the Fallen Angels couldn't help but get a familiar feeling from looking at the Light using blond, as if he's seen him before. He watched as Darkness and Light swirled around Naruto as the blond charged at Raiser as an incredible speed, almost leaving a trail… of yellow and gold. "…!? I see… so that's it…HAHAHAHA!"

"Azazel?" The silver-haired teen turn to look at the Fallen Angel as he started to laugh.

"We will definitely have to keep an eye on this one!" Azazel said as he continued to laugh, before slowly coming to a stop as he watched the screen with a smirk, dismissing the confused look Vali was giving him. 'To think that the famous Yellow Flash… and former Paladin of the church, would actually have a son that was the descendant of Lucifer.'

(Thrones of Heaven)

"So there is a Devil that is not only has the blood of Lucifer in his veins, but is immune to the weaknesses the others of his kind have… I suppose this could also explain his wings." Michael said as his focus and curiosity on the blond grew as he watched him. The young man's appearance did indeed look similar to Minato Namikaze, the man who had once shared the title of Strongest Exorcist with Dulio Gesualdo. "… In the many centuries I have been alive, I have never expected to find such a being. I wonder how he is able to do it."

"It will require some investigation, but for now there is nothing we can really do. The last thing we want right now is to cause an incident that would start another Great War." Gabriel noted, not taking her eyes off of Naruto as he continued to overpower Raiser. "… He certainly has a lot of potential to be one of the strongest, I guess it's to be expected from a descendant of Lucifer and Minato-kun's son."

"Tell me the truth Sister, did you already know about his existence before today?" Gabriel finally turned to look back at Michael, who took notice to a lone tear falling down her face, "… I see… so you did know."

"My apologies for hiding it, but I couldn't tell anyone about him. Eighteen years ago, I was there when Naruto-chan was born, and Minato-kun had asked me to keep it a secret until Naruto-chan was older. He was as cute as a newborn, he looked so innocent as well when he looked at me with those sea blue eyes." Gabriel explained as she brought a hand over her arm, squeezing it a little as she recalled the day. "I understand completely if you want to punish me for not telling you, and I won't complain."

Michael was silent for a few moments, before shaking his head. "As much as I am against the fact that you didn't tell me, I understand why you didn't. You are one of my strongest Angels and one of the people I trust most, so I will not be punishing you too severely, but in return I want you to tell me everything you know about the remaining members of the Lucifer clan."

"Understood, you have my word." Gabriel nodded before looking back at the screen, a very small smile grew on her face as she caught Raiser flying towards Naruto with his entire body covered in fire. 'It seems your son has truly become a fine man… my beloved Minato-kun.'

(Back to the Engagement Match)

"I REFUSE TO LOSE TO THE LIKES OF YOU!" Raiser shouted in anger as he threw a flame-covered fist forward at a blank faced Naruto, who simply raised his hand and caught the fist with ease, much to Raiser's surprise. The flames erupted from Raiser's fist and divided in two directions on either side of Naruto, but the blond himself and the area directly behind him was completely unharmed.

Naruto stared at Raiser with cool eyes, "… Is this the limit of your power, Raiser Phenex? I was really hoping there would have been more to it than this, but I guess that's to be expected… from Devils like you."

"What was that?! And just what do you mean by that!" Raiser shouted as he tried to remove his fist from Naruto's grip, but his opponent had a firm hold on him.

"Tell me, how many times did you actually train to get stronger?" Naruto asked, making the flame user blink in confusion. "… I'm guessing you've only been taking things for granted by using the power and abilities you were born with, but even then you'd rather use the power of your Peerage first. You take advantage of your name and hierarchy as a High-class Devil from the Phenex household to get everything you want, and treating those who are lower than you in rank like trash and seeing them as weak scum… The ones who act like that are the real scum, and the ones who are the real weaklings." Naruto released his grip on Raiser's hand before sending a high kick at Raiser's chin, the force of the blow sent Raiser into the air.

Raiser quickly managed to regain his bearings with his fire wings spread out, his body shaking in rage as he glared down at Naruto. "How dare you… How dare you… HOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO ME LIKE THAT!?" The Phenex Devil's flames began to grow at an alarming rate, causing some of the viewers from the House of Phenex and Raiser's Peerage to look on in surprise as Raiser raised his hands above his head, binding his fire into a giant orb, it was glowing as bright as the sun. "LET'S SEE YOU CALL THIS WEAK LUCIFER! PHOENIX HELLFIRE!" Swinging his hands down, the giant fireball was sent flying towards Naruto, its shape shifting as it turned into a phoenix.

"A phoenix-based attack, huh?" Naruto noted, his expression still calm as the attack drew closer.

The firebird screeched as it dived down at Naruto, crashing into him and the ground surrounding him. The blonde's form was hidden from view as a pillar of flames covered him and the area surrounding him. Raiser panted a little as he descended to the ground and landed several meters away from the still going pillar before he started to laugh, "Not so powerful now, are you? It's too bad I won't be able to see the look on your face when I make Rias mine, but I suppose the looks on their faces will be enough… This match is over Naruto Lucifer, I win." A smirk grew on Raiser's face as he began to turn around and walk away, but came to a stop when he heard the sound of something being sliced.

"It's over?" A voice spoke up from the pillar of flames, which started slowly breaking apart to reveal a figure standing in the center. "Sorry to disappoint you, but something like that won't be enough to defeat me." The figure raised one of its arms, a sword of light in its hand, and swung the blade horizontally. The force of the swing extinguished the flames instantly, and Naruto's full appearance was revealed, covered in armor… only it wasn't his Guardian Armor. Unlike the other one, which was blue and silver with one gauntlet covered by one of the sleeves, this one had more of the appearance of a black knight with dark grey clothing underneath. The purple gauntlets, metal boots, and other areas of armor had spikes on them, and while the torso seemed to be free of them. Every single piece of armor was a combination of black and dark purple, with blood-red lines spreading all over. There was a black visor, which also had red lines on it, over his eyes.

"Just how could you have survived that? And what the hell is that form?!" Raiser question with a slightly fearful tone, that move had been his strongest attacks and this guy had brushed it off… not to mention the power that was coming off him no

"This is one of the results of my training, when my Darkness takes form into an armor that increases all of my offensive abilities and takes it to a new level… this is my Assault Armor." Naruto explained as Light and Darkness spiraled around him.

"Assault… armor?" Raiser repeated, before taking a step back as the energy around Naruto started to change and take shape behind him, forming a creature… but it wasn't a hannya mask like before. The man couldn't only catch a glimpse of the creature before his gaze snapped down to Naruto, who took a step forward. "S-Stay back!"

"Now do you see, Raiser? This is my power as heir to the Lucifer clan, and what I gained by doing things myself and training until I dropped." One of Naruto's hand glowed brightly as the Lucifer poured even more of his power into his fist, both Light and Darkness spiraling around his hand at high speeds. Naruto shifted his stance a little and raised his fist until it was in front of his face. "This duel… will be finished with one last attack."

"O-One more attack you say, don't be stupid! Even if you somehow manage to severely injure me, my clan's regenerative powers wil-" Raiser was cut off as Naruto seemed to vanish from his spot, reappearing right in front of him with the glowing fist pulled back.

"… Spiraling Twilight." That was the only thing Naruto said, before slamming his fist into Raiser's body, the area between his stomach and his torso. The son of Phenex could only widen his eyes as he felt an incredible amount of pressure grinding into his stomach, before feeling something pierce right through him. Naruto's attack had released a concentrated burst of energy from his fist, which actually tore a large hole through Raiser's body and continued until it slammed into the wall a distance behind Raiser. Cracking sounds could be heard coming from the walls started to fall apart. "Your regenerative powers are incredible Raiser, but the fact remains that I am a Devil who had control over the power of Light magic. While your wounds heal, you can still feel the pain when they are inflicted, and the pain strengthens when you come into contact with anything that weakens Devils, such as a cross or Light magic." As Raiser's body and the wall behind him crashed to the ground, Naruto brought his fist back to his side as he looked down at the fallen Devil. "Right now your body is going through an extreme amount of pain, probably one of the worst feelings you will ever get… But don't worry, with your healing and the House of Phenex taking care of you after the duel, there is no doubt that you will make a recovery."

"… Wh… why am I still…?" Raiser spoke up as his body started to try and heal itself.

"There's no point in killing you, I don't have anything to gain or lose from it… But always remember that your life was in the palm of my hand." Naruto answered before looking up towards the sky, staring at the magic hovering above them that help create this dimension. Dismissing his armor, Naruto called out to Grayfia and Sirzechs. "I've won the duel, there's no need to continue."

"Raiser Phenex retires. The winner of the duel is Naruto Uzumaki Lucifer." Grayfia's voice was heard within the dimension.

Everyone back at the Occult Room was cheering that Naruto had been victorious, even Sona and her Peerage at the Sitri Mansion were happy for the Lucifer heir winning the duel. In Heaven, Gabriel was mentally smiling as the projection screen started to disappear. Back in the other dimension, the area around the two started to glow and two different transportation circles formed under Naruto and Raiser, leaving the damaged dimension behind as it started to crumble and destroy itself. Naruto found himself back in the Satan's Room, with Grayfia and Sirzechs standing in front of him, though Raiser was nowhere to be seen.

"Congratulations on your victory Naruto Uzumaki Lucifer." Sirzechs said as he gave Naruto a smile, while the battle had been a little one-sided, it was still an entertaining match to see. And now they, as well as the Underworld and the other Factions, now knew the capabilities of the Lucifer heir. "The House of Gremory and the House of Phenex have accepted the results of the duel, though there might be some issues later on."

"I figured as much, so where is Raiser?" Naruto asked while wondering where the man had been sent to.

"His transportation circle took him back to his estates so he could properly recover." Grayfia answered making Naruto nod in understanding, he did say that himself. "The House of Sitri have also ceased their projections to the other families."

Naruto nodded his head again, "I'm going to need to thank Sona-san again for doing that for us… So what now?"

"There are a few questions that I would like to ask you…" Sirzechs replied with a serious expression, which stayed for a few seconds before going back to his usual cheerful self. "But that can wait for another time, why don't you go and enjoy your victory. You'll need it for the attention you're about to get in the days to come." Grayfia had to restrain herself as she let out a sigh, the man definitely knew how to go about things in a casual manner, and it was good at times but sometimes it was just aggravating. "Now why don't you go back to my sister's headquarters, I am sure they can't wait to see you."

Nodding his head, Naruto did a small bow to the two before summoning a magic circle. "Thank you for all you've done, Grayfia-san, Sirzechs-sama."

"You can call me O-" Naruto had already teleported away before Sirzechs could finish. Sirzechs shook his head before making his way back to his seat, "… Well it looks like things didn't go as originally planned. Father and I learned a lot from this, Rias certainly found a better candidate than we did."

"It doesn't look like it bothers you that much." Grayfia said with a knowing smile as she looked at her husband's content look.

"The return of the Lucifer clan... and the appearance of the Welsh Dragon, who is my sister's Pawn. It's almost as if it's a sign that something big is going to happen soon." Sirzechs commented as he leaned back in his chair.

(Unknown Area)

"That was a disappointment. I was hoping to see more of the capabilities of my sister's grandson." The seated figure commented as he stared at the screen that was still hovering a few feet away from them. They had managed to get a frozen image of Naruto wearing his Assault Armor.

"He was going up against a member from the House of Phenex, they aren't the best choice when fighting someone on his caliber, if I recall correctly he has four sets of wings." The cloaked male beside him said before looking at the seated man, who had an evil smirk on his face. "Did you think of something Rizevim-sama?"

"I was just thinking of the perfect subject to truly test out him, a certain Fallen Angel who has been wanting the perfect opportunity." Rizevim rested his head against his hand as his grin only grew, "A few words to tempt him and I will be able to see Naruto's true power."

"Isn't that a little risky, there is the chance that he could die."

"It doesn't matter to me, if he dies then that means he's a weak and pathetic Devil. And if I need to, then I will simply kill him and the rest of my sister's family without any hesitation." Rizevim replied as his red eyes glowed and let out a dark chuckle that echoed through the darkness. "After all, I had no problems with disposing of my own worthless son."

(Occult Research Clubroom)

Everyone turned their heads as a transporter circle appeared and with a flash, Naruto appeared. He raised his hand in greeting, "Hey guys, you enjoy watching the fight?"

One of his first answers was from Rias as she leaped at him and wrapped arms around his neck, the force of her sudden jump made Naruto take a few steps back and spin the two of them once before he regained his balance. The Gremory heiress pressed her lips against Naruto's for a gentle kiss, which the blond was happy to respond to. They slowly parted from each other and Rias rested her head against his chest, "I knew you would win."

"Of course, was there any doubt?" Naruto replied as he smiled down at the girl, before feeling more arms wrap around him, making his turn his head to see Mito, Asia, and… Akeno?

"Congratulations Naruto-kun." Akeno said before quickly placing a kiss on his cheek, much to Rias' annoyance. "That was an exciting fight you pulled, especially with how much you played around with Raiser, fufufu."

"What was that Akeno?" Rias asked with a twitching eyebrow.

"What was what Buchou?" Akeno feigned ignorance as she and Rias stared at each other, neither noticing as Mito had managed to pull Naruto away from them.

"You were so cool Onii-chan!" Mito cheered as she waved her arms in the air. "And that last attack was so fast, I couldn't even see it!"

"Well it was a powerful move, so powerful that it destroyed the exorcist sword I had." Naruto replied before turning to Asia, who was smiling at him. "Thanks for the lucky charm Asia, it really came in handy."

"I'm glad it helped, and I'm glad you aren't hurt Naruto-niisan." Asia had a few tears of relief in her eyes as she moved to hug her brother, who smiled as he hugged her back. One by one, everyone congratulated Naruto on his victory, before they all started to celebrate both the win and the Lucifer clan's debut. Outside the room, a black cat was watching the scene silently before turning around and hopping off the windowsill.

'He's definitely a strong one, nya!' The black cat thought as she began to walk away, not noticing a crow now resting where she had been seated.

The crow stared into the room, its gaze focused on a certain blond as he drank from his cup. Its eyes flashed red for a second, with three commas circling around the pupil. Spending its wings out, the crow leaped off the windowsill and began to fly away, disappearing in a puff of smoke as soon as it reached a certain distance from the Old School Building.
