"What the fuck?!"

"Yo homie this is bullshit!"

'Shut the fuck up.' Anthony thought.

He was in high spirits today. During his conversation with Kala the previous night he found her to be a nice and charming person, once he got past her outrageous beauty and suggestive demeanor. The two of them actually ended up talking about quite a bit, both of them feeling refreshed afterwards. Anthony didn't even realize how much stress had been building in his body since everything had happened to him, so last night was like a breath of fresh air.

"Calm down you guys, it's nothing personal, just goes to show I'm better than you too."

However thanks to a certain Perverted Trio Anthony's stress meter was steadily growing back into the red zone.

Deciding to see what all the fuss was about, Anthony steadily used his devil senses to listen in on the conversation and really couldn't believe his ears. Apparently some girl approached Issei this morning outside the school gates and confessed to him, not only that but the two of them were going on a date this Sunday. Anthony seriously wondered if he had entered a parallel universe. He could tell the Perverted Trio weren't bad guys at heart, it's just that they had no self-control whatsoever. So Anthony was truly interested to see what kind of girl would take a chance on one of them.

Luckily he was in the perfect position to do so, since Issei's desk was to the left of his, while he sat in the farthest row near the window.

Slightly craning his head as smoothly as he could, Anthony was able to catch a glimpse of the girl who had asked Issei out, him presenting a picture of her on his phone to his friends. And seeing the girl, Anthony could admit he was left speechless.

The photo on Issei's phone was of a beautiful girl with long black hair, pink eyes, and a good sized chest.

He seriously couldn't believe such a girl had confessed to Issei.

"What is this world coming too?"

Anthony began to rub his head, his stress levels rising as another person he couldn't deal with had shown up.

"Hey Aika," Anthony half-heartedly said, turning to face the only girl pervert in the entire school.

Aika Kiryuu, a second-year female student with a shapely figure, dark brown hair tied into twintails resting on her shoulders, and brown eyes covered by red rimmed glasses. She is also the girl version of Motohama being able to tell a man's size like Motohama could do with females. And Anthony knew Kiryuu's power is scarily real, he had the pleasure of experiencing it first hand.

Just remembering it sent a shiver racing up his spine.

"What's with that joke of a greeting? Could you perhaps be tired, Kiyome keeping you up all night eh?" Aikia said.

Anthony didn't want to respond, but he knew if he didn't then Kiryuu would make a more outlandish accusation and spread it around the school, he once again had seen this happen first-hand. And once again, it had not been a pretty sight.

"No Kiryuu nothing like that has happened." Anthony explained. "And anyway, just who do you think we are, we haven't even gone on a proper date yet, so there's no way we could be ready for that."

"Oh, so you two haven't been lying about your relationship this whole time and been doing it like rabbits behind everyone's back."

Anthony's only response was to give Kiryuu a blank stare and ask her, "did your parents drop you a lot when you were a baby?"

"Hehe, what a funny guy you are Anthony," Kiryuu said in response to his question. "But to answer you, no, my parents didn't drop me at all when I was a baby."

"Oh, so you came out of the womb this pervert-"

Before Anthony could finish his comeback, Issei crashed into him, having been sent flying by punches from his best friends in retaliation for Issei getting a girlfriend before them.

That's when it happened.

As soon as Issei crashed into him, Anthony felt like electricity had just struck his body, a tingle running across his entire person.

"Ah man Anthony I'm sorry." Issei apologized, hoping Anthony wouldn't beat him up again like the other day.

"D-don't worry about it." Anthony said in response, looking out the window with a date on his face.

"Well, alright then." Issei said, internally crying tears of relief. He didn't know why Anthony had let him off the hook, but he didn't let such a chance pass him by. He returned to his friends as fast as possible.

Meanwhile Anthony couldn't shake that feeling he had just gotten when Issei made contact with his person.

'Just what was that?' Anthony thought.

'That was the resonance I mentioned the other day.' Fafnir said.

Anthony was on his way home from school, having finished passing out flyers for the day. With no pressing devil and Kiyome busy with helping out her family business which Anthony found out the other day was monster taming, he was on his own. So Fafnir decided to take this opportunity and explain what had happened when he had crossed path with Issei earlier today.

"Resonance, your shitting me right," Anthony muttered in response to Fafnir's words, keeping his voice so no one who happened to walk by him thought he was crazy.

'Again kid, I'm not shitting you. That breast obsessed pervert is the possessor of the powerful dragon-type gear I've been sensing hanging around. And from the looks of things, it seems to be waking up.'

"Is that good or bad?"

'Once again it all depends on said user. But I do hope it's the White one or the Red one. If it is, things will get very interesting around here.'

"Aren't things already interesting enough?" Anthony asked, sighing. He knew Fafnir wasn't lying about Issei, but seriously Anthony wondered what cosmic forces were in play to give a mega pervert something that could potentially slay a god. Well who knows, maybe Issei would surprise him and rise to the occasion. Stranger things have happened.

Continuing his walk, Anthony sighed once again stopping in his tracks, placing his school bag on the ground. "Alright, whoever you are, come on out. I know you're there, so there's no point in hiding any longer."

He had been training with Akeno pretty much any chance he could get, and the results were finally showing. Anthony could hold his own against an enemy by himself now.

At first no response was given, but then the surrounding area began to change. The air itself warped into a dark color, black feathers beginning to fall in front of Anthony's path.

'A fallen angel huh.' Anthony had learned about them when self-studying the supernatural. But given the treaty he wondered what one was doing in devil territory.

"So you could sense me huh, pretty good I guess." A young girl's voice rang out. The owner of said voice then appeared from the sky. She was a girl who looked to be about 13 to 14 years of age, with blonde hair and blue eyes, dressed in a gothic Lolita outfit.

Anthony blinked a few times to make sure his eyes weren't playing tricks on him.

They weren't.

He was seriously face to face with a real life fallen angel gothic lolita. It was finally dawning on Anthony not to apply common sense to his new world anymore.

Taking a deep breath, Anthony regained focus. "So gothic lolita-"

"Milett, that's my name and don't you forget it." The fallen angel said, interrupting Anthony.

"Right Milett." Anthony said, sweat dropping. "So what can I do for you?"

"That's easy, you can die!" A high-pitched whirring sound could be heard as Milett raised her hand into the air, the next second holding a light spear. She then threw it directly at Anthony's chest, a sadistic smile on her face.

"Right, so a sadistic gothic lolita fallen angel." Anthony muttered, using his speed to dodge Milett's attack.

Creating more light spears Milett took to the air, raining down fire on Anthony who dodged everyone. He knew if he didn't he would be in deep shit, since all forms of light are poisonous to devil's.

Snapping his fingers while still dodging, Anthony summoned forth a good number of magic circles that fired off earth and fire spears at Milett.

Knowing she had to, Milett stopped her own attack and used her wings to dodge, swerving in the air for as long as the barrage lasted. When it was over she summoned forth a light spear in each hand, ready to skewer Anthony, only when she looked down below he was nowhere in her line of sight.

That's because he was three steps ahead of her.

Having taken to the air with his devil wings while Milett was busy dealing with his spell barrage, Anthony summoned his Gigantis dagger and flew straight at Milett's back. Only for her to turn around and face him, still he didn't stop.

"Dumbass devil, die!" Milett yelled with glee, throwing a light spear at Anthony. He caught it with his open hand, shocking Milett to no end.

(Negate)

The jewel atop the Gigantis dagger rang out, negating the effects of light poison for Anthony, turning the spear into one he could hold. He then threw it right back at Milett, nailing in one of her wings, for she was still in shock from Anthony catching her spear with ease.

Anthony was really glad he asked Kiba and Koneko for help with controlling his speed and his reaction time. Otherwise he might be dead.

"Yah!" Milett screamed in agony, as her pierced wing began to bleed. Intending to strike back against Anthony it was already too late.

Having closed the distance, Anthony attacked Milett with his Gigantis dagger coated in a sheen of wind magic. Milett threw up a hastily made barrier around herself, and it worked to an extent but not completely. The attack Anthony launched pierced the barrier, delivering a wave of wind slashes to Milett, spewing her blood and ripping her outfit, forcing her toward the ground which she hit with a crash.

Floating down after her, Anthony landed a few feet from Milett's battered body, not letting his guard down even for a second. "Now then, how about you answer some questions for me." Anthony moved closer to Milett, only for a magic circle to appear behind her, spewing out light spears in Anthony's direction.

He used his knight's speed to avoid each and every one, but while doing so he couldn't reach Milett who made her way to the magic circle.

Hobbling right up to the edge, she turned and shot him a murderous glare. "Filthy devil scum, you'll pay for this," Milett raged, right before entering the magic circle, disappearing in a flash. Once she was gone the area returned to normal, Anthony doing so as well.

'Well that was unexpected'

"Yeah it was." Anthony looked up toward the sky. "And I have this strange feeling things are only going to get more hectic from here on out."

"A fallen angel you say."

"Yeah."

It was the next day and as usual Anthony was in the ORC club room with everyone. This time however he was recounting the events of the previous night, informing them all about his encounter with Milett.

He also didn't miss the sheer hatred on Akeno's face at the mention of fallen angels. She admittedly tried to hide it well, but Anthony was still able to catch it. Even so he was going to leave it alone, everyone had things they didn't want to talk about.

Leaning back in her chair, Rias had a serious expression on her face, one which Anthony had never seen before. He had always thought Rias was just a bit too laid back before, but now he just might have to change his opinion of her.

"How dare they invade my territory," Rias said.

Anthony took back what he said before. From the way Rias was acting it was like she was a brat throwing a temper tantrum and not a leader poisoned to deal with the situation. But just to make sure he was right, Anthony decided to give Rias a little test.

"So Rias, what are we going to do about this situation?"

"Nothing for now." Rias said. "We don't know the fallens location or what they're after, so moving prematurely could end up making the situation worse."

Anthony was impressed with Rias' response. His opinion of her was now planted firmly in the middle between bratty and leadership material.

"Moving on," Rias turned toward Anthony who was sitting on one of the couches as usual, "Anthony I would like you to do something for me this Sunday."

"And what might that be?" Anthony questioned.

"I'd like you to follow Issei Hyoudou on his date. He's in your class, correct?"

The gears in Anthony's head immediately put everything together. "It's because of his sacred gear, right?" Anthony finished with a smirk, shocking Rias and the others.

"How did you know?" Rias asked. She had only told Akeno about Issei's sacred gear, not even Kiba and Koneko who had been survelling Issei knew of his gear, yet Anthony did. Rias was both curious and surprised at his knowledge.

"Resonance." Anthony answered bluntly. "Fafnir resonated with the sacred gear inside of Hyoudou. I don't understand it very much, but the point is he has a sacred gear and with the fallen in town you want me to survell him to make sure he's safe, while also keeping an eye on him just in case you want to recruit him into your peerage, right?"

"Y-yes that's right." Rias answered, truly impressed by Anthony's powers of reasoning.

"Well fine, not like I have anything else to do anyway. In fact this is perfect." Anthony turned to Rias. "Do you mind if I bring help?"

The day was Sunday, the day of Issei's big date but also Anthony's.

He was standing by a water fountain dressed in blue jeans, red sneakers, a black shirt and a golden hooded jacket, checking the time on his phone every so often. Considering the meeting time he had set with his "help" was fast approaching.

"Anthony, over here."

Anthony looked up, smiling as Kiyome walked toward him dressed in a paige skirt with a yellow blouse and paige sneakers, a yellow single strap purse hanging at her side. He had accepted the mission from Rias, but only on the condition Kiyome could come along. This way he could kill two birds with one stone. Keep eyes on Issei, and give Kiyome a proper first date, again with everything that has been going on and their schedules both so hectic neither of them had time for each other, and Anthony wouldn't be a good boyfriend if he didn't do something to rectify that situation as fast as possible. Thus his current plan.

"Sorry, did you wait long," Kiyome asked, reaching Anthony's side.

"No, only about twenty minutes." Anthony stated, earning him a glare from Kyomei. "What, what I'd say?"

"Not that. You're supposed to say "no dear, I just got here myself, or I wasn't waiting long". Something like that, not the crap you just spewed."

"What is this, some shoujo manga," Anthony asked flatly, leaning on the water fountain behind him. "This is real life, and besides don't they also say "honesty is the best policy" in any relationship."

"Yeah, but there's such a thing as being too honest," Kiyome retorted, earning herself a glare from Anthony.

The couple then glared at each other for a moment, before breaking down into laughter. Most people who saw their previous display would think they were on the verge of breaking up, but anyone who knew them truly knew that banter was just how they showed their love for each other. It's what made them such a great couple.

Their laughter dying down, the two shared a quick kiss before getting on their way.

It only took them a few moments to spot Issei, and the girl who had asked him on the date, one Yumma Amano.

But said girl is highly suspicious. Rias had informed Anthony that the school the girl went to did not exist, furthermore she herself did not exist until a few days ago, this told Anthony the girl was part of the supernatural world, but for what purpose she had come into contact with Issei, he could only guess. Hence today's surveillance mission.

Being as inconspicuous as possible, Kiyome and Anthony tailed Issei, both of them admitting the date he planned was actually really nice and thoughtful. First the group headed to a romantic movie, which had Kiyome crying like a baby, leaning on Anthony the entire time which he thoroughly enjoyed. Then they headed to a nice family restaurant, where Kiyome ate their mega parfait in under 20 minutes getting it for free, Anthony wasn't shocked in the slightest given how long he had known Kyome for, the girl could eat all she wanted and never get fat. Finally the two couples ended the day by taking a leisurely stroll through a nearby park. And in all that time Anthony hadn't felt anything strange from the girl Yumma Akeno. Still, he couldn't shake this bad feeling he had in the pit of his stomach.

Hiding in the bushes, Anthony using a cloaking spell he had recently learned, the couple observed Issei and Yumma, Kiyome releasing a sigh.

Anthony hearing this turned to her and asked, "Kiyome is everything ok?"

"Yes it is, but don't you think we're encroaching into stalker territory. I mean, we've been following Hyoudou and his date all day, and nothing bad has happened. So, don't you think Rias is just being a bit selfish, having you spend your own time doing this for when she could do it herself. Not that I didn't enjoy the date, but still…"

Listening to Kiyome's concerns, Anthony nodded leaning in to give her a quick hug. "Kiyome, I know it's a bit unfair, but it's not like Rias is a tyrant or something. I mean sure she's a brat and selfish at times but at times she tries her hardest. And while I don't know her full plans, what I do know is that I can't shake this bad feeling something is going to happen. So please, let's stick it out just a bit longer." Anthony pulled back from the hug, giving Kiyome a pleading look.

Kiyome in return nodded, giving Anthony an "ok" without even saying anything.

"Thank you." He whispered into Kiyome's ear.

While doing so he felt a change in the air.

His senses in overdrive, Anthony turned from Kiyome and looked for Issei and his date, only to not see either of them. He clicked his tongue in annoyance.

"Anthony, what's wrong," Kiyome asked, taking hold of his shoulder.

"Kiyome," Anthony turned toward her, "can you fight at all?" He was seriously asking her, for if the situation got dangerous he wasn't confident enough in his own strength yet to say he could protect Kiyome and Issei. So he needed to know her capabilities.

"Yes, I can use magic." To emphasize her point, Kiyome conjured a magic circle and pulled out a whip. "I also use this, it's a necessity in monster taming."

"Wow, didn't know you could use magic." Anthony said, surprised by Kiyome. It seems he didn't know everything about his girlfriend.

"Yes, but not well though. The short version is one of my ancestors was a magician, but over time the magic in my bloodline heavily diluted, until me, for some reason I'm able to use magic. However I don't really practice and train with it, all I know is a few basic spells."

"That's more than enough for right now, let's go. Also after this is over, come over and I'll give you some lessons, since apparently I'm a prodigy at magic." Anthony said, standing up.

"Alright then, please give me some lessons after all this is over." Kiyome said in a husky tone.

…

"...Kiyome"

"That was nothing." Kiyome heavily answered. "You misheard me."

"Yeah, I did."

Anthony did not.

"Right then. Let's go" Anthony said, leaving the bushes.

"Yes." Kiyome said following him.

Neither of them wanted to think about what had just happened. It would seem Akeno was rubbing off on both of them in the worst way possible.

Issei couldn't be happier, his date with Yumma had gone so well, and now it was about to end with him having a girlfriend, this was the happiest day in his life, the next would be when he lost his virginity, which would be coming soon considering how Yumma had been all over him today.

Outwardly he was calm, but inside he was thinking of all the perverted things he would do to her.

"Issei." Yumma called out shyly, fidgeting from side to side, the necklace Issei had bought for her as a present dangling from her neck.

"Yes Yumma." Issei answered.

"I was wondering if you could do something for me?" Yumma's fidgeting increased, a hint of pink beginning to appear on her cheeks.

"Yes, anything." Issei happily answered.

"Then…could you die for me."

Issei looked at Yumma with a confused face. "What?"

Before Issei could ask anything else, he felt an unbearable pain in his stomach, looking down he saw a glowing spear sticking out of his stomach. And the person stabbing him, none other than Yumma herself, her embarrassed face morphed into one of sadistic glee.

She shoved the spear deeper into Issei's guts.

"Gah!" Issei yelled in response, the pain unlike anything he had ever experienced.

"Hehe, go ahead and scream all you want, no one can hear you." Yumma said.

True to her words, a barrier had been put in place around their location, the distorted color of the sky evidence of it.

"Yumma, why?" Issei questioned, looking at Yumma with hurt in his eyes.

"So you really wanna know? Well then, let me show you." Yumma said, her body becoming encased in light, undergoing a transformation. When the light died down standing in front of Issei was still Yumma, only she appeared older in her 20's, her breasts even bigger, and her attire changed to that of exhibitionist bondage gear.

Issei couldn't believe his eyes.

"Listen up, my name's not Yumma, it's Raynare, and" a set of full black wings popped out of Raynare's back, "I'm not human, but a fallen angel."

Issei was left speechless at this revelation.

"Nothing to say. Well it's fine if you don't understand." Raynare said, waving Issei off. "The point is, because of something inside of you, you need to die. So if you want to blame anyone for your current predicament, blame God for placing said thing inside of you." Raising her hand, Raynare summoned another light spear to finish Issei off, but before she could, an enraged Anthony appeared in front of her.

"You bitch!" Anthony yelled, enraged. He knew going into a fight angry was a bad idea, but right now he didn't care. All he wanted to do was kill Raynare for playing with Issei's emotions.

Lashing out, Anthony delivered a kick to Raynare's gut, sending her flying back into the trees. Following that, he closed the distance to her, avoiding a light spear aimed at his head and delivered a lighting clad infused punch to the side of her face, sending her flying sideways.

"Ah, you bastard!" Raynare yelled, picking herself up off the ground, using one hand to hold the side of her head Anthony had just punched, a sizable gash now bleeding there.

"So you can still move huh, damn I was trying to smash that disgusting face in." Anthony coldly spoke to Raynare, ignoring her temper tantrum.

"Fuck you!" Raynare howled, a look of recognition appearing on her face. "So you're him, that red haired bitches new knight."

"If you mean Rias then yes. Also if you know me, I'm guessing it means you know that loli Milett, right?" Of course Anthony was already certain these two women knew each other. For two fallen angels to appear separately in the same place, Anthony didn't believe in a coincidence like that.

"Tch!" Raynare clicked her tongue in annoyance, the worst possible situation was happening. Not only had she been discovered by the devils, but she had yet to finish off her target. She was in deep trouble.

Anthony not wanting to waste anymore time summoned forth magic circles, intending to finish off Raynare. Only for a light spear to come at him from the trees.

Jumping back to Issei's position, he summoned his Gigantis dagger, glancing back for a quick second to see how he was doing.

It wasn't looking good.

Despite Kiyome's best efforts to stop the bleeding, Issei was looking paler by the second, if nothing was done within the next few minutes, he would die for sure.

"Just hang on a bit longer," Anthony whispered to Issei, turning his attention back to Raynare and the new enemy that had just launched an attack on him from the trees.

Appearing from the treeline came an older man, dressed in a trenchcoat and a fedora. Anthony wondered if the man thought it was the 40's.

"Raynare, just look at you," the fedora wearing man spoke in a low voice, "how pathetic."

Raynare turned toward the man and yelled, "just shut the fuck up Dohassek and get me the hell out of here. Besides," Raynare turned to face Anthony's group, shooting them a sinister smile, "that pervert is already on death's door anyway."

In response to Raynare's disgusting smile, Anthony threw lighting at her, only for Dohaseek to intercept it with a barrier. While eyeing Anthony he noticed the Gigantis dagger in his hands. "I see, so that's the one Milett lost to the other night," Dohaseek said to no one in particular.

"Right, Gremory's new knight." Raynare stated. "So we need to go, right now."

"As you wish." Dohaseek answered. He summoned a transportation circle, encompassing both him and Raynare, the two of them disappearing in a flash of light.

Anthony was worried about them, but his top priority right now was Issei. Turning around, he bent down and checked the wound as best he could, however he only knew basic first-aid, Issei's wound was much for him. And if nothing was done soon, Issei would die.

Looking for a way to keep that from happening, Anthony and Kiyome had to use their arms to shield their eyes, as a magic circle appeared next to them. Stepping out of said magic circle was none other than Rias, accompanied by Akeno.

"What happened here?" Rias asked, looking at Issei.

"I'll tell you what happened." Anthony said in a low voice. "That fallen angel bitch played with Issei's emotions, and then tried to kill him, all because of his sacred gear." Anthony was enraged, he knew the supernatural world was dark and bloody, but what he had just witnessed, there should be rules against this kind of shit.

Anthony turned to Rias. "You can save him, like you did for me right?"

"Yes, I can." Rias answered, taking a step back from Anthony. The look in Anthony's eyes, it was a look that sent a shiver down Rias's spine.

"Excellent." Anthony stood up. "I leave him to you then." Anthony began to walk off, only for Rias to yell, "Stop!" making Anthony stop and turn toward her.

"Anthony, just where do you think you're going?"

Anthony tilted his head to the side, looking at Rias with a cold gaze in his eyes. "Where am I going you ask, why to track down that fallen bitch Raynare and rip her guts out." He answered, his killing intent permeating the air.

"I won't allow that." Rias said in protest to Anthony's decision. However she didn't know if she could stand her ground, given the massive killing intent Anthony was releasing, it was making her really fearful of him.

"You won't allow it," Anthony said, tilting his head to the other side.

"T-That's right." Rias confirmed. "As a servant of the Gremory household your actions reflect on me, and as such I cannot have you go off on your own for a personal revenge mission."

"I see." Anthony smiled a sardonic smile at Rias after her words. "So you're that weak and pathetic huh?"

The statement Anthony made shocked not only Rias but Akeno and Kiyome as well. None of them had ever heard Anthony say something so vile.

"What was th-"

"Didn't you hear me bitch, I said your weak willed." Anthony stated, interrupting Rias. "These fallen have infiltrated Kuoh Town and killed a human, both of which are "supposedly" under your protection. Yet despite overwhelming evidence, you still refuse to act."

Rias could say nothing in response, Anthony's blunt words both true and cutting deep into her.

"Yeah that's what I thought." Anthony spat, another noticeable change coming over him. His eyes began to flicker from their normal dark brown to pure gold.

"Anthony." Kiyome said.

"I can't believe I would ever put my trust in you."

"Anthony."

"A leader who won't take action when her subjects are in danger is no leader I can follow. Rather I despise those kinds of people."

"Anthony."

"So instead of standing around here twiddling my thumbs, I'll go and conquer the enemy for you, oh so great Rias Gremory," Anthony said, saying the last part of his statement with heavy condescension. And since the time Anthony had started his little rant, his eyes had now become full gold in color, the brightness increasing.

"ANTHONY SNAP OUT OF IT!"

SLAP!

Kiyome yelled at the top of her lungs delivering a slap to Anthony's face, the hardest she had ever done.

When she did, Anthony's eyes changed back to their normal brown, his face in a daze.

"W-what?" Anthony mused, touching his stinging cheek. "What was I just doing?"

"You were acting scary, so please. Stop." Kiyome said, running into Anthony's chest and burying her head inside of it, tears beginning to come out of her eyes. She didn't know what had just come over Anthony, but she knew she didn't want it to ever happen again. Because it scared her to death.

"Sure." Anthony said, pulling Kiyome closer. He also had no idea what had just come over him, but he also didn't like it one bit. He would investigate further when he had time, but for now… He looked at Rias and Akeno and said, "Sorry, I don't know what came over me."

"It's fine, we know that wasn't the real you, you were just angry."

Surprisingly it wasn't Rias who apologized first, but Akeno. She turned to Rias and asked, " You forgive Anthony as well, right Rias?"

"Yes, I accept your apology." Rias said, although in truth she only did so to get through the situation. "Anyway, let's deal with Hyoudou before he dies. I'll handle him, Anthony, you and Kiyome can head home for the night, you've done enough." Rias looked at Akeno. "Akeno if you please, handle the rest."

"Yes, buchou." Akeno said, no longer Rias's best friend but Rias's Queen.

"Well then, we'll be on our way." Anthony said.

Getting a nod from Rias and Akeno, Rias took out the box that contained her evil pieces and began the resurrection process on Issei.

Anthony and Kiyome left the park, what just happened still at the front of Anthony's thoughts. And no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't shake the feeling, that it wasn't the last time something like that would happen.

Meaning he had to figure it out and quickly. Otherwise he might do something he regretted.

A/N

That's another chapter done. This one I did battle scenes, one between Anthony and Milett to show off Anthony's new combat prowess, and one between Anthony and Raynare, for that bitch to get what she deserved. Really, no matter how you look at it, Raynare is no good, playing with Issei's feeling like that even if she was being deceived with an order, there were other ways she could've gotten close to Issei. And so I wanted her to get what she deserved along with showing the deadly side of the supernatural world, that's skipped over quite a bit in the series. No offense to the writer.

Now as for Kiyome's magic power and ancestry. I'll admit I borrowed that from DxD Redux, but it's a good route to go considering I plan to have Kiyome join Anthony's future peerage. Spoiler I know, but with this the age gap between them will be taken care of. But I won't tell you what piece she'll be, I'll save that for much

Now as for the attitude and eye color change I had Anthony display at the end of the chapter. That's a little taste of what is to come. But if you want an idea read Tales of the Fearless Dragon by fanfiction author Streetlife 34. Like me, they're also doing a story comparable to DxD Redux, and I'll tell you. I think it's one of the best DxD fanfictions out there. Just my opinion though, check it out for yourselves.

Anyway, that's all for now.

Anthony's Harem: Kiyome Abe, Nero, Kalawarner, Xenovia, Akeno, Kuroka, Valerie, Lavina Reni, Fianna Ordesia, Ingvild Leviathan, Grafiya

Issei's Harem: Rias, Asia, Ravel, Irina, Koneko, Emhilde, Rossweisse
