Chapter 43
I don't own DxD; I just use its characters and techniques. All credit goes to its creator. Same applies for anything that I used from other animes.
Its Jeanne's turn at last and the fun has begun. Remember this chapter takes place right after the events at the end of chapter 40 and events that happened in Chapter 41 will be referenced from Jeanne's perspective.
(Jeanne P.O.V)
Over the last few months I've done some crazy things, but the text message I just sent is by far the craziest. My name is Genevieve Arcana, or as my friends call me Jeanne and I'm a second year student at Nochizuri Prepatory Academy, an all-girls Prepatory school just outside the town of Kuoh. Of course all of that doesn't matter right now. "What was I thinking telling him about that" I groaned as I sat in my dorm room having just told Issei Hyoudou the Red Dragon Emperor that the Hero Faction is finally making a move. I used to be his spy but after what happened with Diodora I was supposed to stop. Sadly I couldn't resist telling him when I learned we were finally making a move.
"You're thinking that you want to try Issei's not so very little dragon aren't you?" my roommate said with a smile on her face from the bed next to mine. My roommates name is Momiji Kiryuu. She had auburn hair that she let flow down her slender frame and gold eyes that were very much like those of a cat. Momiji was my best friend and confidant and the only person in all of Nochizuri that knew about my work with the Hero Faction. Her twin sister is actually Aika Kiryuu and she's a member of Rias Gremory's peerage.
"How many times do I have to tell you Momiji I don't want to sleep with Issei." I yelled angrily though a blush did form on my face.
"Could've fooled me. You've been surprisingly eager to please the guy even betraying your organization a bit when you became his spy which by the way, you aren't anymore after what happened with Diodora Astaroth" Momiji replied.
"So what" I countered. Momiji looked at me with a smile and said, "As long as I've known you Jeanne you've been cool and distant from anybody, but anytime you were talking with him you acted like an actual girl. Not that I can blame you because that guy's dick is huge." Momiji chuckled.
"Wait a minute how do you know how big he is." I exclaimed. Issei might know that Aika had a sister but he shouldn't have met her.
"A few weeks ago I went back home to visit my sister. I happened to peek on them having sex and I saw that monster of his in full mast. You sure know how to pick em." Momiji teased causing me to blush heavily.
"I thought he was dating Murayama." I replied with a confused look on my face. Given that he took her to the gala I assumed he was her boyfriend.
"Not at all. According to my sister, he's got multiple lovers including your rival Murayama. The top girl is someone named Irina, but my sister and your rival are one of many." Momiji revealed catching me off guard slightly.
"I see" I replied with mixed emotions. I always got the sense Issei was a ladies man, but this was a bit much. Murayama was my rival and that was one thing but learning that she was just one of many was sobering. On the other hand, it meant that if I made a move, Issei would accept it. I wasn't exactly going to say that but I was certainly thinking it.
"Well it doesn't matter now. You can discuss your feelings when you guys face Kuoh later this week."
"Huh!" I blushed again not expecting her to say that.
Momiji looked at me with a frown, "Knowing you as well as I do, you sent the message to Issei about what you guys were doing, but made it vague enough that he'd have to come see you. All things considered, it was pretty ingenious of you."
"What's that supposed to mean." I protested. I didn't mean to do it on purpose at all but I didn't have much information. Hell I still can't figure out why I sent the text in the first place.
"Ignoring your supernatural side and the fact that the devils know all about you, the normal you is a celebrity and there's no way you can see him without causing a fire storm which would alert your boss and that's something you probably don't want. In other words, the only way he can find out more if he confronts you directly and the only place to do that is in the locker room." Momiji explained causing me to blush heavily.
"But I wasn't"
"Oh come on now Jeanne. If you honestly expect me to believe that you didn't realize it, you're more naïve then I thought." Momiji smiled.
"Whatever" I huffed as I prepared for bed.

As I arrived at Kendo practice the next day I was pissed off. Thanks to Momiji's words I had a dream where Issei snuck into the locker room and molested me as he interrogated me about what we were planning. The worst part was that I woke up just as Issei was about to fuck me which left me frustrated for various reasons. "So captain, are you ready for the battle with Kuoh?" a girl named Carla asked curiously. She was one of the junior members and she sort of idolized me. Apparently she saw me in a competition a year ago and I inspired her.
"Why wouldn't I be" I replied in annoyance.
"The whole school was talking about your argument with Murayama in the cafeteria after the match a few weeks ago. When somebody asked Momiji she said she wasn't sure but she suspected that it was about a guy." Carla said calmly.
I was furious at Momiji for telling Carla about that but I had to change the conversation, "It wasn't about a guy. I was just talking to her about the kendo club." I replied calmly.
"I see" Carla replied with a frown on her face. She could tell I was lying which was annoying.
"Let's continue practice." I said firmly and Carla and the rest of the club nodded deciding not to push me.

"Why the hell did you tell people about Issei, Momiji? That's the last thing I need." I screamed as I sat with my roommate in our room.
"Because I'm the rumor girl. Honestly it's your fault for not having the conversation in our dorm room." Momiji replied. I twitched because she was right.
"That doesn't matter now. No more Issei rumors." I said angrily.
"Fine since we both know you have a much more annoying problem." Momiji reminded me.
"Yeah I know. Issei is going to come for me and find out what I know and he's not going to hold back." I shivered nervously knowing that he was not going to use words to get to me.
"That's not an annoying problem Jeanne, that's a kinky one. I was referring to how your boss Cao Cao is going to view things." Momiji smiled.
I blushed slightly when Momiji mentioned kinky but that blush faded when I thought about Cao Cao. My actions over the last few months have been problematic and I know it. "Yeah" I frowned.
(Scene Skip)
As we arrived at Kuoh Academy for the big match I was nervous but not for the usual reasons. I was nervous because I knew that Issei was coming for me in order to talk. "Hey Jeanne is everything okay?" my vice-captain Alyssa asked calmly.
"Yeah it's fine. I guess I'm just nervous." I replied.
"I imagine. So this guy that you and Murayama got in a fight over, do you think he'll be there." Alyssa wondered.
"I doubt it." I replied calmly as the girls groaned in annoyance. Issei I fucking hate you right now you ass.
As we approached the locker room I twitched royally because I realized that Issei was actually waiting for me in the fucking locker rooms and luckily for me, he was in one of the lockers that was away from the girls. Clearly he read the article where I mentioned that during big matches I like to change away from the girls and Kuoh was one of the big ones. As the girls walked in to get changed I calmly made my way over to the locker where Issei was waiting, "Hey Alyssa do you mind acting as captain today, I'm gonna be a little late coming out." I said calmly trying to hide the truth about what was going.
"Okay but don't take too long. After all you're the main attraction." Alyssa replied. I was lucky that they were used to me being alone.
"Spare me" I groaned as I put my bag down and waited for the girls to leave whispering to Issei. Sure enough he was here for a chat. Luckily for me Issei was patient and he would wait until the girls were gone to do whatever he wants.
"We're leaving Jeanne." Alyssa alerted me and it was time for our chat to begin.
Unfortunately for me, my 'chat' with Issei consisted of him molesting my body and teasing me as he chastised me for telling him about the Hero Factions plans. The fact that he only teased my body and didn't ask more must've meant that Issei felt I didn't know anything worth interrogating but the fact that he didn't escalate matters was a bit shocking. I was positive that Issei would try and fuck me but he didn't respecting my wishes and pulling away before kissing me. It was more proof of what a frustrating person Issei was and when I made my way out to the arena; I noticed a smiling Issei watching the battle and had a sneaking suspicion that the one that teased me was a clone. Well at least until the clone seemingly left and returned later with a different energy signature. 'Damn you Issei Hyoudou' I thought to myself as the matches began.
(Scene Skip)
Despite Issei's teasing, the match with Kuoh went fairly well for me. Murayama was oddly off, something that in hindsight may have had to do with Issei coming to see me. As I relaxed in my room, I could finally focus on the upcoming trip to Kyoto. At least that was the plan until I got a call from Cao Cao. "What's up Cao Cao?" I said calmly.
"I was calling to tell you more about our upcoming operation." Cao Cao said calmly.
"Really" I said with a slight shock in my voice. He would wait until right after I have a great chance to see Issei in order to tell me. That all but confirmed that he was spying on me with somebody.
"Yes, admittedly I wanted to let you enjoy yourself for a little bit but Georg was quick to remind me how our operation may affect you." Cao Cao replied.
In other words he wanted to make sure that Issei couldn't ruin the plan. "Okay what's going on?" I asked calmly.
"Our Operation will take place in Kyoto during the your school trip. You don't need to join us since you're on the trip but I wanted to warn you about it nonetheless" Cao Cao revealed causing my eyes to widen.
"I see, so that means you don't need me." I frowned.
"For the first part of our operation no, but afterwards I may call on you." Cao Cao revealed.
"I see, well please be careful." I said bitterly. Cao Cao obviously doesn't trust me and he's only telling me because Kyoto's yokai might bother the girls and me.
"I will Jeanne and I hope you enjoy your trip." Cao Cao replied.
"Yeah bye" I said calmly before hanging up.
(Scene Skip)
With the trip to Kyoto a few days away, I was as calm as I had been in a long time. Issei wasn't angry at me and even though the Hero Faction was doing something in Kyoto but there's nothing I can do until he contacts me again. "Hey Jeanne I've got some news you might not like." Momiji said calmly.
"What happened" I groaned. Whenever Momiji was calm it spelled trouble since she was usually very playful.
"It turns out that Kuoh is going to be in Kyoto at the same time as we are for their school trip." Momiji revealed.
"FUCK!" I cursed. That's not bad news, it's absolutely horrific news.
"So Issei will be there at the same time we are, I don't see the problem" Momiji shrugged missing the point completely.
"The problem is the Hero Faction's operation is taking place in Kyoto. The one that I told Issei I know nothing about when he came to visit me" I explained in a frantic voice.
"Oh" Momiji replied beginning to realize the problem.
"Not just that, if he's there for a school trip that means that the other second year devils will be there. That also means that when he finds out what's going on, and that won't take him very long, Issei will be on my ass and not in a good way." I yelled in frustration.
"Oh so you do want him to fuck you. I knew you were being a tsundere" Momiji replied with a giggle.
"That's not the point!" I yelled getting more frustrated by the second. I know she's screwing with me but now isn't the time.
"Fine fine I get it, but you'll be fine. Remember that Issei isn't aware that I know about the supernatural which means you can control how you guys meet." Momiji reminded me.
I took a deep breath since she was right, "That's what I'll have to do." I replied exhausted from the conversation. I knew Momiji wasn't going to make it that simple for me, but for now I had to hope that things wouldn't be so bad.
(Scene skip)
The bullet train was relatively peaceful but the minute we got into the borders of the town, my senses went haywire. "Can you feel that Momiji" I whispered nervously. The reason why Momiji knew about my activities was because she could sense supernatural energy.
"Yeah. It's like the energy in the place has gone haywire." Momiji replied.
"Yeah and I have a feeling I know why." I groaned in annoyance. I knew Cao Cao was doing something big but based on what I was sensing Cao Cao already made his move.
"What did you guys do" Momiji said in shock.
"I don't know but Issei is definitely going to sense this when he arrives." I replied unsure of what to do. The trip to Kyoto just got extremely complicated and it wasn't going to end well for me.
That's it for Chapter 43 everybody and Kyoto is finally about to arrive. Next time Issei and gang arrived in Kyoto and it doesn't take long for Issei and gang to get caught up in the Hero Faction's plot.
