And hello, everyone! This is dad90 saying "Happy New Year!" to 2021, and Good Riddance to 2020, AND to Donald Trump, who is the worst President ever! On the other side of the coin, congrats to Joseph R. Biden Jr. as the 46th President of the United States, and to Kamala Harris, the first-ever woman to become the Vice-President, and boy, and to my party, the Democrats, for winning the Senate! (Yes, I know I'm late, but better late than never!)
It just goes to show how hard work, perseverance, and most of all, trust and truth and Democracy prevails!
Trump and the Republicans are certainly a disgrace to the world, especially after what happened on Jan. 6th when an angry mob attacked the Capitol in Washington and (I'm happy to say) the former President did NOTHING to stop it, just like the Coronavirus! But now, with a fresh new President, who certainly deserved to be one, especially after all the personal challenges and losses he went through, we can turn the page and actually get back to normal again; that I know for sure.
That being said, with a new year, and a new President, I now can present the first fanfic of 2021, and this time, I'm going to do something a little different. This one is going to be called The Rebirth Legacy of the Night Raid of DxD! This is actually a fanfiction challenge from 2 users:
TheAbyssWolfKnight18
Gaevontracey24
And the crossover consists of the following:
* Highschool DxD
* Chivalry of a Failed Knight
* Testament of Sister New Devil
With elements and characters from:
Akame ga Kill!
Bleach
Fairy Tail
Freezing
Hundred
Hybrid x Heart
Dragonar Academy
Maou Gakuen Rebel
Devil May Cry
And more!
And this time around, the main character is an OC from one of the viewers, Gaevontracey24, whom I mixed that from the main character that TheAbyssWolfKnight18 has described as a non-perverted and strong (but not OP) Issei Hyoudou, and I know that it's going to be fantastic.
The main area is going to be in the world of the "Chivalry of a Failed Knight", which already by itself is an Alternative World, but following the events of that, Highschool DxD, and Testament of a Sister New Devil, and as you know by now, there's going to be a massive harem in this story, BUT! There's already an Alpha girl that's actually one of the minorities in this crossover. You'll find out who it is shortly.
After reading a few stories here and there, and what's happening outside, I may be planning writing a few short chapters about some of the harem members in order to build character development, which to me, is considered challenging, but I'm ready to try something new.
As much as I would like to say more, let's not waste any more time and let's get ready for the first fanfic of 2021 as I present to you "The Rebirth Legacy of the Night Raid of DxD!"
DISCLAIMER: I do not own ANY OC, or own any Anime, Manga, or Light Novel Series from the ones up above or any other crossover that'll appear.
** At Hueco Mundo **
In an unchanging night that covers the sky, an endless white desert that covers the ground lays the land of Hueco Mundo, a seemingly never-ending white desert, with a multitude of dunes, where both Hollows and Arrancar reside.
Now, Hollows (虚 (ホロウ), Horō) are a race of creatures which are born from Human souls who, for various reasons, do not cross over to the Soul Society, where many Shinigami reside, after their death and stay in the Human World for too long. They are corrupt spirits with supernatural powers which devour the souls of both living and deceased Humans.
An Arrancar (破面 (アランカル), Arankaru; Spanish for "To Tear Off", Japanese for "Ripped Mask") is a Hollow that has removed its mask and has gained Shinigami-like powers.
It is here that Orihime Inoue was captured by Sōsuke Aizen, its ruler of Hueco Mundo, and her friends have come to rescue her.
Orihime is a teenager of average height. She has brown eyes and long, waist-length, burnt orange hair. Her most noticeable physical trait is her slender yet curvaceous figure for a teenager, especially in terms of her large breasts. She wears her hair in bangs tucked behind her ears with hairpins, which she only removes to sleep, as they are worn in the memory of her brother.
And right now, she's healing one of her best friends, Ichigo Kurasaki, as demanded by his opponent, Sexta Espada Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez.
Ichigo's most distinguishing feature is his spiky orange hair, a trait he has been ridiculed about for years on end. He is a fairly tall, lean-built young man with peach skin and brown eyes. Since becoming a Shinigami, he has become noticeably more muscular, as noted by his sister Karin. When in his spiritual form, Ichigo wears the standard Shinigami attire, with the addition of a strap across his chest. Initially, it was a thick brown belt to hold his Zanpakutō sheath, but it later became a red rosary-like strap after awakening his own Shinigami powers. It is shaped like a kite with a flat top and bottom.
Grimmjow is an Arrancar and was the Sexta (6th) Espada in Sōsuke Aizen's affiliated army. Grimmjow is a tall, muscular man with light blue spiky hair and light blue eyes, the latter including green lines below them, similar to the eye markings on the Panthera genus of cats. Grimmjow's attire consists of a white hakama, a black sash and a ragged white jacket with an upturned collar. The inner lining of his jacket is black and Grimmjow wears it with the sleeves rolled up and leaving it open to expose his muscular chest. The remains of his Hollow mask consist of the right jawbone and his Hollow hole is located on his abdomen. His tattoo number (6) is located on his back, near the right side of his Hollow hole. Grimmjow also sports a large scar across his torso, gained from his first battle with Ichigo.
"Heal faster!" Grimmjow demanded with a growl. "I want to finish our battle to see who is stronger between us."
"I'm going as fast as I can," Orihime responded before standing up and looking at him. "You only want me to heal him so you can hurt him again."
Grimmjow reached his hand out to grab her, but someone quickly blocks his way in doing that. Orihime gasped at the person who just saved her.
The person in question was an old man with a strong built with long gray/white hair tied in the back, and a mustache styled in an imperial fashion. He had a mustache and beard combo. But right now, his entire face is donned in a hollow mask of a Dragon, which meant one thing: This man was a Visored. The Visored (仮面の軍勢 (ヴァイザード), Vaizādo; Japanese for "Masked Army"; Viz "Vizard") are the ones that are the opposite of an Arrancar, as they are a group of Shinigami that have acquired Hollow powers.
After kicking the Espada away from them, Orihime looked at the eyes of the Visored in worry, while the Visored looked at Ichigo, along with an Arrancar named Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck, or better known as Nel Tu, before looking back at Grimmjow.
Nel Tu is a female Arrancar who has hazel eyes and green hair. Her true form is that of a fully-grown curvaceous and well-endowed adult with long waving green hair. Notably, she has a scar and the crimson line that runs across her face, and pronounced lower canine teeth. Her gown is now torn into a skirt and a top, connected with a single strip across her abdomen. Her skull mask also differs slightly; its features appearing sharper and less cartoonish with a pair of curved horns, but still missing some of its teeth. A large "3" is tattooed on her back, indicating that she was the former 3rd Espada.
In her child form, Nel's eyes are incredibly wide, the canines on her lower jaw are even larger than usual, and the remains of her Hollow mask make up a cartoon-like skull which sits on the top of her head. A crack runs along the left side of the mask and four teeth on the left side of the skull are broken off. She has a large scar coming down from her forehead to her nose and a crimson line that stretches horizontally across her face below her eyes. Her clothing consists of a simple green gown with a hood which covers her entire body.
When she was an Espada, Nelliel wore a customized uniform that is a tight fitting long sleeved shirt with should pads and puffy cuffs. This had a black line starting at the collar and going down to the left side of her chest and to the side and a puffy three lay bottom too. She had two thin black sashes, one of which held her Zanpakutō. She also wore white gloves and white pants that are open at the end and standard Arrancar shoes.
"I know that this mask frightens you, Ms. Orihime," the masked Visored said to her. "But please, leave this battle to me."
Grimmjow growled at the new interference coming in and asked angrily, "You bastard! Who do you think you are?!"
The Masked Visored pointed his sword, a Japanese sword, at Grimmjow and narrowed his eyes at the Espada.
"O-Old Man Kurogane," Ichigo asked in surprise. "What are you doing here?"
"Ichigo," the Visored responded without leaving his eyes at his opponent. "Please take Orihime and Nel away from here. I'll take care of him."
As the Visored tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword, Grimmjow raised an eyebrow at the name of the Visored before he felt the Visored's aura.
"You? Take care of me? But those eyes; you have a killer instinct behind them," Grimmjow analyzed before grinning. "I'll kill you, then I'll kill your friends."
"Don't do this, Old Man!" Ichigo warned him, despite feeling some pain, knowing that he's not fully healed. "You can't take him on by yourself."
"Ichigo, you should know that I'm a survivor of World War II, and even lead our country to victory, and I helped the Soul Society in many countless battles and saved you all from certain death many times, and even though I lost one of my swords earlier, as long as I have one, there's nothing I cannot do. Plus, I promised that I would help you protect Orihime," the masked Visored said before looking at Ichigo. "And besides, we all have Lord Aizen to deal with."
"Fine, but you better come back alive, Samurai Ryouma!" Ichigo shouted before he took Orihime and Nel away from the battlefield, as the Masked Visored turned back to the Espada, who's eyes widened at hearing the nickname.
"So….you must be Ryouma Kurogane, or known as Samurai Ryouma, a famous Visored who's the only one that's also a Blazer. In fact, Lord Aizen has been talking a lot about you. A Visored born with the blood of a God and has a power that is similar to an Espada."
Grimmjow vanished and grabs his sword from the pillar and laughs as he power-ups a Cero, a powerful blast of concentrated spiritual energy.
"I'm going to enjoy defeating you!" Grimmjow yelled with excitement. "Let's see how powerful you really are!"
He grinned as he fires the attack at Ryouma as he looked at the Cero before a huge wall of ice appears in front of it and blocks the Cero.
"And now, it's my turn," Ryouma said as he vanished.
Grimmjow's eyes widened as he looks around before he got dropped-kicked by Ryouma into several pillars, making the Espada cough up blood.
"Not bad," Grimmjow smiled before he slices up his fingers across his blade as Ryouma widened his eyes in horror.
'He wouldn't…' Ryouma thought, but Grimmjow did.
"Take this! Gran Rey Cero!" Grimmjow smiled wickedly as he launched a greater attack, many times more powerful than a normal Cero, disturbing the fabric of space as it travels. Upon release, it spins like a razor as it compresses and decompresses due to the sheer speed and raw power.
As Grimmjow fired his Cero at Ryouma, he was forced to dodge that powerful attack, but he didn't get out of it unscathed…
Half of his dragon mask was damaged. Holding his face, Ryouma growled before getting kicked in the face by Grimmjow.
"Not bad, Visored. Why do you fight? To protect your friends? Or, is it to get stronger?" Grimmjow asked as he releases his Resurrección, which returns the essence of an Arrancar's offensive Hollow abilities to their humanoid bodies, and started to attack Ryouma. Releasing a series of fast attacks on the old male, Ryouma coughs up blood as he formed an ice barrier in front of him as Grimmjow punched it, sending Ryouma crashing into ground.
"Hahahaha! Don't tell me that this is the best you can do, Samurai Ryouma, but then again, you are getting old. It seems that Lord Aizen was wrong about you. So, I'll ask again before I kill you. Why do you fight? You're a Hollow, and it's our destiny to fight!"
Grimmjow rushed towards Ryouma and impales him as he stood up, coughs blood and drops his sword to the ground.
"Is that it? Too bad," said a disappointed Grimmjow as he removed his hand from Ryouma's chest, leaving a hole.
Ryouma's eyes went blank before he fell to the ground face-first as Grimmjow scoffs at this and started to leave.
'Why…do I fight?' he thought to himself as Ryouma lays there as flashbacks came to mind of his previous battle and who he battled with; his friends and sometimes his rivals.
In his youth, Ryouma was courageous, brave, and charismatic as he became known as a legend after leading Japan to victory in World War II, earning the respect of those who knew his name in the current modern era. This caused even those who were his enemies such as Tendou and on the opposing sides of his ideas such as Kouzou had nothing but respect for him.
Ryouma's ideologies greatly differed from the strict guidelines of the Kurogane Household, disliking their clan's old traditions likely desiring to reform them causing a clash between him against his son and Kurogane Elders. Despite being half-exiled from the Ryouma, he still cares greatly about his family, which is one of his strongest points.
In fact, he remembers his own father saying….
'Remember son, it's your nature to be kind, gentle and loving towards those you care about, but like a true warrior, you should also protect those that matter to you, no matter the cost.'
And then he remembers his mother's final words before passing away….
'Strength isn't measured by what you do in life. It's measured by the size of your heart.'
However, the one person he'll remember the most….is his great-grandson as he was born for the first time.
And that important person….made Ryouma roar into life!
Grimmjow was getting ready to leave when a massive amount of spiritual energy started to shake around Hueco Mundo! He turned around and his eyes widened in shock as he saw Ryouma standing up as he picked up his sword, the hole still in his chest, and a transparent water-like figure was standing behind him. His mask was covering half of his face, which shown a fierce look as he took a step forward.
"Grimmjow….this, is where you will die," Ryouma said with a determined look on his face.
That said opponent growled as he rushed towards Ryouma and responded, "I'll make sure that you stay dead this time!"
Ryouma shifted his foot and rushed towards Grimmjow as they clashed weapons, as well as taking hits from each time they clash. Grimmjow pants heavily as his Resurrección vanished and he went back to his original Espada form while standing on one of the pillars.
"Seems I was wrong about you," Grimmjow said as he began to recover. "You are putting up one hell of a fight."
"Likewise, but now, it's time to end this," Ryouma replied as he made his signature move, and possibly, for the last time. "Toudo Heigen (凍土平原とうど へいげん lit. "Plain of Frozen Soil")!"
The area around Ryouma began to freeze, and Grimmjow, still recovering, couldn't move in time as his legs were frozen from the pillars that also turned into ice.
"And I guess that this is where I die as well. I'm sorry, Genma, Itsuki, and to my future great-grandson that I wasn't able to keep my promise, but considering this particular opponent, this will cripple Lord Aizen a little bit. See you in the afterlife, Grimmjow," said Ryouma as he made his final move. "Kachiwari (かち割りかちわり Kachiwari, lit. "Frozen Slash")!"
He then jumped towards Grimmjow as he hits his opponent with the tip of his sword, freezing Grimmjow in a block of ice before slashing him, killing him instantly as he fell off the pillar towards the ground as his eyes was closing with a smile on his face as he coughed up blood and said his final words….
"I kept my promise….of protecting Orihime….I hope that my future family…does the same thing. Ichigo, take care of everyone and make sure that they keep smiling for me…."
With that, Samurai Ryouma Kurogane has perished as his body fell into the grounds of Hueco Mundo, sinking into the sand, never to be seen or heard from again.
Everyone who knew Ryouma felt his spiritual pressure vanish and were shocked to find out that he was killed in battle.
A few months later, after the defeat of both Yhwach and Lord Aizen, ending the Thousand-Year Blood War, everyone held a funeral for those who died in battle, even though they were unable to find Ryouma's body.
However, little did they and the world know that the legacy of Ryouma Kurogane wasn't over yet, not by a long shot. His death in their world was only a stepping stone for the future great-grandson of the family, who would soon crossover with one of the most famous Devil-Demon hybrids of all time.
And that hybrid belongs to….the Legendary Dark Knight, Sparda.
The Rebirth Legacy of the Night Raid of DxD
A Highschool DxD / Chivalry of a Failed Knight / Testament of Sister New Devil / Night Raid crossover
Prologue: The Half-Breed Cold One Enters Hagun Academy
In the beginning, there were three realms.
The first was Heaven, where the Biblical God and all of his Angels resided. These beings represented Light, Order and Purity in the Universe.
The second was Earth, where the Humans, with the exception of Blazers, and every now and then, Shinigamis, and Youkai all existed side-by-side.
The third and final one was known as the Underworld, or as many would call it, Hell. Here the Devils, who were the opposite of Angels and represented Darkness, Chaos and Sin, reigned supreme over the realm. Amongst the Devils were four who were the strongest of them all: Lucifer, Leviathan, Beelzebub and Asmodeus. These four Devils are known as the Four Great Satans, alongside the 72 Pillars, powerful devil clans who made up the noble hierarchy, ruled over the Underworld and all who existed in it.
For a time, these three realms existed independently of one another and all was peaceful.
Until one single event started a chain reaction that changed everything.
Hundreds of millennia ago, God's most powerful angel, Mundus, became corrupted by his own power and challenged God for control over Heaven. A brutal battle ensued that shook the very foundation of existence until God finally subdued Mundus. Seeing his most powerful angel completely corrupted and feared another uprising, God casted Mundus into the deepest part of the Underworld that is known as the Abyss, a subterranean world completely devoid of light and the resting place of beings so ancient and evil, that even the Devils themselves feared them and their insatiable hunger for souls.
Demons.
And so, God imprisoned Mundus in the Abyss and bound him in a seal that would keep him imprisoned as long as God existed. And for some time, everything was peaceful again.
But Mundus' evil influence was far greater than God could imagine.
Those angels who were exposed to Mundus' presence were affected by his evil and slowly became corrupted themselves, becoming what would later be known as the Fallen Angels. God saw his children's fall from grace and felt that he had no choice but to exile them from Heaven less all of his angels became corrupted. But because he cared about them and saw the potential for them to be redeemed, he didn't imprison them in the Abyss and simply casted them out of Heaven instead.
With nowhere to turn, the Fallen traveled to the Underworld where they took up residence in one of the less populated regions of the realm. The Devils, however, didn't take the intrusion well, and soon, conflicts began to spring up between the Devils and the Fallen. These conflicts became skirmishes, then skirmishes became battles, and then at last, an all-out war broke out between the two sides. This war would eventually spill over onto the Earth, where humans started getting caught up in the middle of the war. God saw this and realized that he had made a mistake when he allowed the Fallen to move freely and now that the Devils and the Fallen were influencing humanity, he was forced to take action. With regret, he ordered his Angels to destroy both the Fallen and the Devils to prevent humanity from being led astray from his teachings. It was here that the Great War began in earnest and would continue for thousands of years; until two millennia ago, something happened that no one could have foreseen.
God and the Four Satans died.
With Heaven and the Underworld leaderless and the Three Factions' numbers depleted from the ongoing war, the Angels, Devils and Fallen all withdrew to their respective homes to try and salvage what could of their societies.
The Great War had ended….but the nightmare had just begun.
While the war was being raged above, deep inside the Abyss, Mundus was gathering power. Using his corrupted angelic powers, the Original Fallen Angel took control of the Demon hordes that dwelled within the subterranean world and became the lord of all Demons. With the death of God, the seal that bounded Mundus to this place weakened, giving the Demon Lord the chance he had been waiting for. With the Demon hordes at his command, Mundus shattered the seal, holding him and the demons at bay and invaded the Underworld. The Devils and Fallen Angels couldn't believe it, as they didn't have the strength or number to repel the hordes and were forced to abandon the Underworld and take refuge on Earth. With the whole Underworld at his control, Mundus turned his attention to Earth. No longer was his ambition to control only Heaven, Mundus would rule all of existence with his power. And so, the war between the human world and the Demons began. This even forced the Shinigami and the Blazers to work together with the Humans and the Youkai to fight off against the Demons. Unfortunately, Mundus would soon turn the dead souls of humans into the corrupted Hollows that many of the Shinigami would fight today. And with the Hollows and Demons working together, the humans, youkai and the blazers stood little to no chance against them, and with the Three Factions already exhausted of their strength, and not enough Shinigami to call for backup, all hope seemed loss.
Until another unlikely thing happened.
A single devil rose up to challenge the demons and the Hollows.
His name…was Sparda.
Sparda single-handedly battled against Mundus and his army of Demons while the Shinigami fought back against the Hollows and the former was able to push the horde back into the Underworld. The Blazers and the Three Factions, all having to witness this amazing feat, all entered into a temporary truce and mustered their remaining forces to aid Sparda and the Shinigami in pushing the Hollows, the Demons and Mundus back to where they belong, where Sparda used his own power to seal the breach.
With this, the nightmare was finally over.
With the demons and Hollows all sealed once again, the beings of Heaven, Earth and the Underworld were finally able to begin rebuilding their civilizations. The Angels returned to Heaven while the Devils and the Fallen reclaimed the Underworld. Within the Devil faction, new leaders were being appointed and Sparda was offered the chance to become the supreme leader of the Devils. To everyone's shock, Sparda refused the position and instead chose a Demon from the Demon Realm of the Underworld to take that title as the Supreme Ruler of the Underworld, or Demon Lord. In fact, both the Demon Lord and Sparda themselves selected the new leaders to replace the old Satans who died during the Great War. With all of this done, Sparda traveled to Earth and quietly vanished into history.
The Three Factions would sing tales of his deeds for hundreds of years to come and the devil who fought a legion of demons would become legendary. Even more legendary than Lucifer.
The Legendary Dark Knight; Sparda.
And that name would soon make history once again as the worlds of the living and the supernatural were all going to witness a new generation of Devils that would continue its legacy.
(2100 years later)
Blazers.
A special being who can manifest one's own soul as armor and control superpowers with one's magical power.
In the past, they were first referred to as magicians and witches, Blazers are irregular people found in one-in-a-thousand born with magic, they are able to materialize their soul as a weapon referred to as Devices.
Nowadays, all national militaries and local police force require Blazers, but as a result of the laws referred to as the Mage-Knight System, in which a Blazer would need to graduate from an internationally improved vocational school to receive their license and social status as Mage Knights thus receiving approval to use their abilities or known as Noble Arts.
In order to both evaluate and manage Blazers, their traits are determined and placed among the most appropriate spots among their hierarchical system to maintain balance. As such, things such as their ranks and attributes are fixed and rarely changes unless the situation called for it.
The ranks are determined from six attributes:
Offensive Power
Defensive Power
Mana Quantity
Mana Control
Physical Ability
Luck
Each of the Blazers' attributes is rated from A to F with A is the highest and F is the lowest. These ratings are used to determine whether or not a Blazer will be ranked as either A to F Rank.
The Kurozakura Family and the Kurogane Family are two of the most distinguished families of Blazers, but not just any Blazers. They are known to produce the extremely rare Soul Reaper Blazers who are Devils as they quickly became very well-known in the Underworld, especially as they are the only two allied families that both carry out the name of the Dark Knight himself; Sparda.
They were also known for their strength, intellect and power, and it is said that anyone who has ever met a member of one of these two families in combat has fallen. Any challenge that either a Kurozakura or a Kurogane has stood before has been overcome.
These 2 Devil families strived to build ties with other Devil clans in the Underworld and other famous Blazers in Earth and even Shinigamis within the Soul Society, while others strived to be their downfall in hopes of dishonoring their great name. Those people had it in their minds that the admiration and power they held were the most important things to these 2 families. However, they were mostly right in that assumption. Almost every member of these 2 families believed that power and admiration were the only things that mattered and that everything else came second in their pursuit of these things.
Something that the Bael clan, a famous Devil family that holds the title of Great King, knows all too well. In fact, they were the first ones to ally with these two families and it didn't take long for the Kurozakura and Kurogane families to even surpass them and gained the rare title that even the Bael clan didn't mind and was even approved by the Devil Elders.
Devil Emperor.
These two families prided themselves being able to be on top of the surviving 34 Pillars not only as Devils, but as Soul Reaper Blazers as they held a large amount of power, even more than the Bael Clan, especially when they also have the blood of Sparda running through their veins while carrying some of the powers of the Shinigami. However, that wasn't the only thing. They also prided themselves on having complete control over that power. Every member had excellent control of their powers.
Except for one.
The son of the current head of the Kurozakura family who's one of the descendants of Sparda, Yukio Kurozakura Sparda.
Yukio had an A-rank in magic capacity, but his control was E-ranked, but that wasn't his fault, and for good reason. You see, the fact of the matter is Yukio would most likely forever have a challenge in controlling his power. It's not that he wasn't skilled, but it was because…he's a generation.
A generation is a blazer who has been born with at least two elemental manipulations fused together to generate a single element. For Yukio, he had a fused element of Ice and Lightning manipulation or Cryo-Lightning manipulation as he called it. He also had a fused element of Ice and Wind manipulation or Cryo-Wind manipulation as he would also called it.
For the first, it was a manipulation with the ability to create, shape, and manipulate electrically charged violet/pale-blue-colored frozen energy that can take on the properties of either while retaining the coldness of ice and having the freedom of imagination that the two elemental manipulations hold. The second can do the same thing, but he can generate and control harder, colder and sharper frozen wind, but that was the problem for both of them.
As generations, as long as people have known about them, supernatural or not, they have NEVER been able to control their powers. They were seen as ticking time bombs and monsters, because at some point, their own power would go out of control. And once it did, it would attack their own bodies, overwhelming them and killing them while causing as much untold and unimaginable destruction as possible while the generation itself died. Obviously gaining control over this power would prevent this fate, but that was a difficult feat in itself since no generation has ever done it before.
And yet, Yukio's parents were different as they knew that he could do it. His father, while having being born and raised in the Kurozakura family was never really like the other members. He was the one oddity in the family. He was a pureblood devil and had his pride, but unlike many other pureblood devils, he was not too prideful or over his head. He was kind to even those who were weaker than him. His mother, a 3rd-generation in the Sparda bloodline, and a hybrid between a Devil, a Fallen Angel, and a human, had never been a member of the family and she was a very kind woman. Both of them believed that Yukio would able to tame his power.
But as Yukio started to train at the age of 4, both parents were very shocked when they found out that Yukio…was this generation's Red Dragon Emperor, and they immediately knew about the fate of many Dragon Emperors. They've hidden this fact from the others, especially from the Elders from both this family and the Devil Elders, who somehow has more authority than the 4 Great Satans, but with less authority than the Demon Lord, as they all thought that Yukio would never control his power, especially from the Kurogane Family, and all thought that he was nothing but a failure who would never have a chance, but his parents say otherwise….
** At the Elders' Meeting **
Right now, Kagami Kurozakura stood before a group of 5 men and 5 women, with two of them being Lord Bael and the current head of the Kurogane Family, Itsuki Kurogane. Kagami was the current head of the Kurozakura family. He had silver hair with bangs that covered his right eye. Based on the sight of his left eye, people knew that his eyes were blue. He stood at 5' 11" and he was wearing a black suit with a blue tie. He was currently standing in front of the Devil Elders and the Kurogane Elders and is arguing about his son's place as the heir to the family.
"I will NOT replace my son as heir!" Kagami yelled to them. "Even if Hitomi and I have another child, which is up to us, by the way, it will not change Yukio's place as the next head!"
He hated dealing with things like this, and some of the Great Satans know it. He loved his son and believed in him. He just wondered why his family and these Higher-Up Elders were all so quick to throw the boy away, and Lord Bael has a good reason why.
"Kagami, that boy will never be able to control his power! He's just a ticking time bomb! A monster!" Lord Bael shouted. "In fact, he's no better than my useless daughter, Madoka Bael!"
"Don't compare Madoka to my son! While she doesn't have your Power of Destruction, that didn't stop her from trying to be strong! My son can surely do the same! While he's a generation and his power that is said to be uncontrollable, I believe that he can do it. And so, help as Maou as my witness, and if any one of you calls my son a monster in presence again, you will all surely face my wrath!" Kagami yelled as he growled, causing Lord Bael to snarl in anger, along with Itsuki who said….
"You fool! He's just like my foolish son, Ikki, who's F-ranked! He can't do anything right, and neither would Yukio, so don't even try it!"
"Don't you DARE say that in front of me, Itsuki! Coming from you, you and the others just wanted me to sire another heir to replace him! You're telling me to give up on my own son?! That's what p*ss*s me off, especially from the Kurogane side of the family AND the Bael clan! When did we all start abandoning the members of our family that we consider to be weak or lost causes?!" Kagami asked as he made an honest point, even if the Kurozakura were indeed closely tied to the Kurogane and at what point did they, the Kurozakura, start acting just like them and to an extent, the Bael family, and to an even bigger extent….the Vampires.
When did they start acting like just because someone didn't have power, or in Yukio's case, had a unique power, otherwise considered uncontrollable, that they can just abandon them? From what Kagami had seen, Ikki Kurogane, Yukio's stepbrother, was treated that way and he knew that the Kurozakura members were disgusted by it. Since to the Kurozakura, a weak member was not a failure for being weak; instead, the true failure was the person who raised and trained that member. To them, it was the fault of the parent, or in this case, Itsuki Kurogane, and not the child, or in Ikki Kurogane's case.
"Now Kagami, that is going way too fa-" was all one woman could say before being interrupted by Kagami.
"No, that is exactly what you're saying, and I will say this now and there WILL no longer be any discussion on this matter. So here goes; Yukio is my heir and that will NOT change and he will be able to control his power! End of discussion!" Kagami finished as turned and walked away, ignoring the shouts of the other Elder members.
** Outside the Building **
Once he walked outside, he heard his phone ring. He pulled it out of his pocket and looked at the screen as it read Kurono Shinguuji. He answered the call as he walked to his car.
"Hello, Kurono. To what do I owe the glorious pleasure of your call on this fine day?" he asked with a grin on his face.
[Ha ha. I'm fine, thank you. I called because it's been a while. So how are things these days?]
Kagami frowned and sighed as he replied, "Not so great; I just had to deal with all of the Elders today. They, especially Itsuki and Lord Bael, were trying to convince me to replace Yukio as the next head. They kept saying that Hitomi and I should have another child and have he or she take the title as the head of the family."
[Really? And what did you say?]
"I basically told them all to go screw themselves, but not exactly in those words," he answered as Kurono laughed.
[I'm glad. You know I believe in Yukio, too.]
"Yeah, I do, too. Hitomi and I are glad."
[No problem. My little nephew needs all the support he can get.]
"Isn't that the truth…Hey, Kurono."
[Yeah.]
"If something were to ever happen to me and Hitomi….I want you and Jin to watch over Yukio….as well as well as your other niece or nephew."
A slight gasp from Kurono was heard when she got that piece of information.
[Other niece or nephew?]
'I really hope this doesn't come back to bite me in the *ss, because I really don't want to die,' he thought as he sighed and replied, "Yes, but don't tell Hitomi I told you, because she wants to tell you herself…and she may very well kill me, but…she's pregnant. The elders don't know that and I would like to keep it that way for as long as I can."
[I get that, but what brought this on all of a sudden?]
"The thing is a specific elder was called for that meeting. He's never been my biggest fan and there's a possibility he'll use my unwillingness to replace Yukio as his stand to take my place as the current head to make way for his daughter to take over."
[And I'm guessing it's the how you're not so sure about. And you think he may target you and Hitomi to do it?]
"Exactly, but I'm just being cautious, that's all."
[Well, I hope you're wrong and that he doesn't try anything, but if something does, I promise to watch over Yukio and my other niece or nephew, too. I'll also pass the info over to Jin in the case my hands are tied.]
"Thank you. Now I'd like to talk more, but I have to get going."
[OK, tell Yukio and Hitomi I said Hi.]
"Yeah, I'll let them know."
With that, the call ended, but what they didn't know was that last call would be the very last time that they'll ever talk to each other again….
** At the Kurozakura Vacation House **
Located somewhere in Iceland, he arrived via magic circle in front of a large castle-like mansion. As he went inside the house, he heard the sound of the footsteps of his wife, Hitomi Takizawa Sparda. She was 5' 9" and was a beautiful charming woman with long, waist-length silver hair and blue eyes with a voluptuous figure due to her Fallen Angel blood, but she also has the blood of the famous Sparda clan, the only Omega-class Devil that even surpasses the Super Devil and Ultimate-Class Devil status. She's wearing a violet dress that hugs her figure as she sees her husband from the entrance as she stepped out of the doorway that led to the living room.
"Oh, Kagami, dear, you're back," she said.
"Yes, I am, beautiful. Oh, and I talked to Kurono and she said hi. And how are you and Yukio today?" Kagami asked.
"That's sweet of my dear sister. And me and Yukio are fine. We had a good time together, and he wants to show you something special," Hitomi answered.
Kagami raised an eyebrow and asked, "Oh, and what would that be?"
At that, Hitomi smiled and gestured for him to come towards her with her index finger to which he obliged. When he got close to the doorway, she pointed inside. Kagami looked to see his son Yukio sitting on the floor with his back facing the doorway. Hitomi then leaned closer so her lips were by Kagami's ear and whispered, "Go ask him so he can show you himself."
He then walked in silently so as not to alert Yukio, and once he was close, he got down on his knees behind his son.
Yukio has black hair and sky blue eyes like his parents. He was wearing a white t-shirt and black shorts. Yukio was a very happy child and his aunt, mother, and some of their friends always said he was like the light in the room and always bursting with energy. Kagami smiled at his son and leaned forward close to Yukio's ear and whispered…
"Yukio, what are you doing?"
The 6-year old was surprised as he fell forward, causing Kagami to laugh.
"Huh?" Yukio asked to no one in particular as he got himself up and turned his head to see his father and a smile spread across his face at seeing him. "Daddy, you're home!"
He hugged his father as Kagami asked, "Yes, I am, but you still didn't answer me. What were you doing before I showed up?"
"Oh, right! I wanted to show you what I can do now," Yukio answered as he picked up of what looked like a violet-colored snowball and held it in his left hand, showing it to his father.
"OK, it's a snowball," Kagami said with interest but Yukio pouted.
"I haven't started it yet, daddy," Yukio said as Kagami chuckled.
"Alright, then go ahead and show me."
Yukio grinned as he held his other hand over the small ball and began to hover slightly.
It then solidified into a violet glass-like orb as that started to release an icy mist as well as sparks of pale blue electricity.
"Wow! That's amazing, kiddo!" Kagami gasped in awe as Yukio shook his head.
"I'm not done showing you. Go ahead and touch it. It's safe."
Kagami did just that and was surprised at what he felt. He could feel the fairly low charge of electricity Yukio had managed to generate, but it felt cool like it was an extension of the ice itself.
"That's amazing, Yukio. Your training is really coming along," said Kagami and Yukio smiled as he let the orb fall back into his hands.
"Thanks, Dad," said Yukio before he looked down. "But what about the cou-"
Kagami quickly cuts him off and said, "Don't worry about things like what the elders (and our close family neighbors) say. Your mother, I, and even your aunt Kurono know you'll be able to control your power fully someday. You just have to train your hardest, alright?"
Yukio looked up before he nodded and responded, "Okay."
Then Kagami sat on the floor, crossed his legs, and picked Yukio up and sat the young boy in his lap.
"So what else did you do today?" he asked.
Yukio stopped what he was doing and put a finger to his chin and responded, "Well, Shizuku and Ikki are in town, so I played with them."
"Oh, and how was that?"
"It was okay. I showed Ikki a few sword stances I learned from Mom and Aunt Shiba and he showed me a couple of fighting moves he picked up, too."
Kagami was surprised that Kūkaku Shiba, the leader of the Shiba clan, and Hitomi's mother-in-law (Don't ask about her age; EVER!) would help Yukio in his training, but he knows that Kukaku's training is absolutely BRUTAL, but he decided to drop the subject as he doesn't want to know what she did to him.
"And what about Shizuku? Did you spend time with her?" Kagami asked, changing the subject and making Yukio's cheeks turn red.
"Uh, can we not talk about that?" Yukio asked as Kagami raised an eyebrow.
"Oh, now I'm even more curious what happened between you and your sister Shizuku…"
"N-Nothing happened! I'm going to bed now! Goodnight Mom! Goodnight Dad!" Yukio said quickly as he raced out of his father's arms, zipped past his mother and went up the stairs. Hitomi just giggled at her son's reaction and walked over to Kagami.
"You know you shouldn't tease him so much," she told Kagami.
"I know, but it was just a little fun, though," he replied as he stood up.
"It may be, but at some point, that's not going to work on him, then what?" she asked.
"Then I'll find another way to get to him; there's always a way and we both know that. Teasing him is one of my livelihoods even when he's all grown up, and I'll still be messing with him."
"To think that I would marry such a prankster," Hitomi sighed as Kagami wrapped his arms around her and kissed her cheek.
"Yes, yes you did and you know you wouldn't have me any other way," he admitted.
"I suppose you're right and I love that about you," she confessed.
"And I love you too," he responded as they both kissed before looking at the steps their son had just run up.
"You really think he'll be able to control his powers? You don't think they'll-" was all Hitomi could say before Kagami interrupted her.
"Of course he'll be able to. The rest of my family and our extended family, the Kurogane family, and those foolish Devils may not believe he will, but we do and that's what matters. His powers won't kill him, and they still don't know that he's the Red Dragon Emperor," he said as she began to tear up.
"I believe you, but I'm afraid of losing my little boy either to his power or…to THOSE Dragons!" Hitomi cried as Kagami hugged her tighter.
He knew that somewhere along the line, Yukio was going to meet his rivals, including the White Dragon Emperor, and the Blue Dragon Emperor, as the history is very well known that to anyone who wields one of the Heavenly Dragons is bound to not have a good life, as well as they are going to be fighting each other, usually to the death.
"Indeed, as I know I'm worried about those as well, especially with the latter, but as long as we believe in him, help him, and are there for him when he needs us the most, he'll be okay," said Kagami.
"I hope you're right."
"I know I am, but it's also a matter of time before he learns about his other powers, including the powers of the Sparda clan."
At that, Hitomi began to calm down.
A few minutes, Kagami asked, "Better now?"
"Yes, very much so," she answered.
"Good, I'm glad."
"I am too…"
Then she gave him a smile that sent a shiver up his spine.
"Now you and I have something else to talk about," she said with a bit a cold tone.
"W-What would that be?" he asked as he had a bad feeling about what the answer is.
"The fact that you told my sister that I was pregnant when I told you that I wanted to be the one to do so," she answered and Kagami gulped.
'Damn you, Kurono!' he thought as he began sweating bullets. "It came back to bite me in the *ss it seems, huh?"
"Yes, and she told me to tell you," she nodded. "This should teach you not to prank her."
And after that, Kagami got punished severely by his wife.
However, even that kind of punishment was nothing compared to the tragic events that were yet to unfold…
(10 days later)
"What—what the hell is going on?!"
Everything was crumbling down around them. He didn't have time to cry as his castle, his home, his safe haven fell around them, but that's not all.
His parents were attacked by the Old Satan Faction, and while his parents tried to fight them off, tragedy struck as they, including the unborn baby from his mother, were killed off by a group of Demons that was led by an evil Vampire Lord named Edwin Black, the founder of NOMAD, a dangerous criminal group using evil spirits, technology and the demon realm itself, to create chaos and corruption, and an ally to the Old Satan Faction, led by one of the worst Devils of all time, Rizevim Livan Lucifer, the son of the original Lucifer.
He didn't have time to mourn over the loss of his parents and his unborn sibling as he and a survivor, a silver-haired girl with green eyes dressed in a white sundress, were on the run, trying to get away from them as everything around them was burning. The whole town was being burned down as there was no place to hide.
BAM!
And that's when ran into real bad luck. Standing in their way….
…was a giant Hollow with a Marionette-like mask with spikes on its lower body.
All the boy and girl could is watch as the giant Hollow performed a Cero attack at the castle where it once stood.
ZAP! BLAM!
A gigantic explosion occurred, destroying whatever was left of the castle, leaving nothing in its wake, all while the boy and the girl were separated, thanks to the blast.
The boy hit the ground hard and could barely stand, but then, he heard a noise-piercing scream as he saw something that made him widen his eyes in sheer horror. The giant Hollow was holding the silver-haired girl with its claws, and he knew what happens when a Hollow attacks a human with its hands or claws.
It's called an Acidic Touch, and when a Hollow grabs a human with their hands, the spot where the person was grabbed is burned, as if acid were poured onto it. These wounds seem to allow the Hollow's Reiatsu to seep into the person, causing great pain to the victim.
"D-DON'T!" the boy cried as his power began to surge as a blue aura surrounded him while electrified ice and snow swirled around him.
However….
BOOM! BLAM!
The Hollow and the Demons were all attacked by a group of special young people that donned special armor and some heavy artillery from the tankers that have arrived in the nick of time.
This forced the Hollow to drop the girl and the boy quickly caught her, but he knew that the girl's condition was grave, but it was much worse than he thought.
In addition to the bleeding that was all over the girl's body, his eyes widened at the girl's stomach, because there….was where the Hollow struck, and the wound is fatal, but there's more. The wound was beginning to glow and the boy could tell that the girl's soul was trying to be forced out of its body, and in doing so, it was going to change into….a Hollow herself. The process by which a soul becomes a Hollow usually takes months to years to complete, reflected by the length of the soul's Chain of Fate, which usually resides in the center of their chest, and connects to their bodies, if present. However, thanks to NOMAD's advanced technology, the corrupted process can now go a whole lot faster, as little as a minute.
So, throwing all caution to the wind, the boy could only do the one thing that might save the girl's life, but in the process, he may be giving up everything he dreamed for, and worked hard for, and possibly, losing his sanity or even his life….
He sucked out the poison blood from the fatal wound and gulped it inside his own body, and he kept doing that for a good 10 minutes, all while the Hollow and Demons were being destroyed by the good forces.
For the boy, his life changed forever that night as he became part-Hollow, but that was only just the beginning….
(10 years later)
** In an Airplane **
Yukio shot up from his seat, sweating and panting, freaked out from the dream he just had.
'Yet, another dream about that day…' he thought was he ran his right hand through his own face before looking out the window. 'Just…who was that girl?'
He pulled out a mirror from one of his carry-on bags and stared at his appearance. Yukio now had silver hair and his right eye was plain white, like looking at paper with a black pupil. His left eye was a darker shade of blue than when he was a kid back then. However, due to his awakening draconic blood's influence, you can find a red streak hidden in his bangs and his eyes' color can change to red with cross-slit pupils. Lastly, his canines were longer and sharper. He put his mirror back in the bag angrily, as it was just one bad reminder of a day he'd rather forget.
Then, something came up on the monitor of the mini-TV in front of him. It was a news reporter that spoke:
"Stella Vermillion Gremory, the second princess of the Vermillion Empire, and the third princess of the Gremory Clan, will be visiting Japan today. She was accepted at Hagun Academy, the chivalry in Tokyo, and was once an all-girls school, with the highest score of all time, and she's not only been said to be the strongest and a gifted knight, but is also related to Rias Gremory, the first princess of the Gremory Clan, who's exceptionally gifted in magic.
"Some even claim that she would probably be on par with Ouma Kurogane, one of the finest Blazers of the Kurogane family or even the Kurozakura royal family heir had the latter not gone missing 5 years ago. Oh, here she comes! The Crimson-Haired Flaming Princess, that's Princess Stella!"
On TV showed a beautiful young woman of average height with a beautiful face, white skin, and ruby eyes. She has long crimson hair tied into twin tails using yellow ribbons. She has a bewitching body, with both large breasts and a voluptuous figure. Many men likens her appearance to that of a painting of a goddess, and that her beauty left no room for wicked lust.
Then again, she's a Devil, and she's not only coming from the Gremory Clan, but also….
…from the Phenex Clan as well, hence her full name, Stella Vermillion Gremory-Phenex as her father is from the Gremory Clan while her mother is from the Phenex Clan, and is also related to the royal Vermillion Family.
"Your Highness. Tell us about your enthusiasm for the study abroad."
But Yukio didn't want to hear it anymore as he changed the channel.
'Geez, can't they stop talking about me. I'd think by now everyone would've just up and assumed that I was dead. I mean, true, I didn't do much about my name, but who's going to believe that I'm the same person with how I look now…' he thought as a memory of his current appearance flashed through his mind and sighed. 'No one is going to think that I'm the same prince with me like this; they'll just see some random guy with the same name. Besides, I can't…I can't be 'that' me anymore.'
With that, the plane began to descend down and heading towards the Tokyo International Airport, where he was going to be starting school as a first-year at Hagun Academy….again, much to his annoyance.
While he was missing, he also discovered other things about himself. He soon learned that not only he's a Devil and a Soul Reaper Blazer with the blood of a Hollow, making him a Visored, but he also has the blood of a Dragon, a Fallen Angel, and of course, a Human, making him a very unique Hybrid.
However, the Human part is because he's also a descendant of the two greatest assassins from one of the most famous branches of the Revolutionary Army that is known as Night Raid: Tatsumi, who was the wielder of Incursio, an Armor-type Gear that took on the form of a short sword with a chain link tassel in its sealed form, and Mine, who was the wielder of Pumpkin, a gun-type Gear.
Now, Night Raid's main function is to handle reconnaissance and assassinations within the Old Satan Faction. In addition, the members of Night Raid are charged with the retrieval of any Sacred Gear discovered in order to boost the combat effectiveness of the Old Satan Faction. When not under direct orders from the HQ or from the New Satan Faction, Night Raid opens itself as an "assassins for hire" firm to the general public, either in the Underworld or at the Human World. However, they do not take just any job from just anyone and will often investigate both the client and target's background in order to avoid possible deception and traps. Night Raid normally operates at night (hence the name).
But after the Great War, Night Raid vanished in history, and while Night Raid was known throughout the war as a rebel criminal organization, their existence was never mentioned in any of the Underworld's history books.
That being said, his aunt Kurono, who was now the new director, was waiting for him at Hagun Academy, thanks to the Mage's Association, as the Grand Master gave her a letter of recommendation with an unusual high score.
Also over the years, since he had gone missing, he kept up with his training, but only with his Sacred Gear, the Boosted Gear, that has the soul of Ddraig, the Welsh Dragon, one of the Heavenly Dragons. It was thanks to the 5 years of training that he quickly became the strongest Red Dragon Emperor in history, even managing to control the Juggernaut Drive by using his large amount of demonic magic and spiritual powers as a substitute for his life.
But despite all of that, he wasn't the same kid that was bursting with energy anymore. He had become colder, pushing people away and never getting to know new people. He's even becoming more aggressive, but it's not like he takes his anger out on everyone; just those who really p*ss*s him off.
And when that happens, it's a challenge all on its own to try to calm him down, and its even worse off that his Hollow counterpart is egging him on, because that'll give him an excuse to try and take control of his body, but Ddraig will have none of it as he seems to be the only one of the few to accomplish this feat, with the other being his godfather, Jin Toujou, who immediately stepped up to the plate and took care of him, and even took him to the Village of the Hero Clan.
It was there that Yukio became one himself and met many people and became friends, but to this day, 5 years ago, another tragic event happened, and long story short, he was exiled (again), but this time, Jin was going with him to make sure that he wasn't alone again and even treated him as his own son, fulfilling Kagami's promise, but that tragic event was even more horrifying than what happened 10 years ago.
In fact, it was thanks to that other incident that he hasn't even smiled in years, and he's become less inclined to do things. His aunt told him about the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival, but he responded with either 'I'm not interested', or 'Entering won't help me in the slightest.'
** Inside a Limousine **
Stella sighed as she finally made it inside where she's being picked up by the Director of Hagun Academy, Kurono Shinguuji. Kurono is a beautiful slender yet curvaceous woman with short dark hair, multiple bangs that covers her forehead with one that reaches her nose and others on the side of her head that covers some of her hair, often tied up into a small ponytail in the back, and yellow eyes. Most of the time, she is often seen to be dressed in a professional black suit, but today, she's also wearing black sunglasses while having a cigarette in her mouth as she properly said…
"Welcome. Stella Vermillion Gremory-Phenex. Your aunt Rias and your cousin Mio are expecting your arrival."
"Director," Stella responded with a smile. "Thank you for having me."
** At the Tokyo International Airport **
Yukio has finally arrived back to his hometown, but it felt like an eternity to him, considering the events he went through.
"A lot has changed since I last came here…" he said to himself after going through all the Arrival procedures before he looked over at an area where people placed down a large banter that said….
[We cordially welcome you, Yukio Kurozakura!]
Then a person spoke loudly into the loudspeaker, "Kurozakura! Yes, you, with the 2nd-highest compatibility score of all time! Yukio Kurozakura! Where are you? Holler if you can hear us!"
"Are you f*cking serious?!" he asked as his eyebrows twitched. "Not one step and I'm already getting attention…."
"That's weird. Maybe he's on a later flight," one of the young people, who was ready to pick him up, spoke, not knowing that Yukio bypassed them, thanks to a large truck passing by.
(30 minutes later)
** At Hagun Academy **
Hagun Academy is one of the seven knight academies located in Japan, spanning an area said to be more than ten times that of Tokyo Dome. Unlike many other academies, Hagun has no intuition fees or other kinds of expenses that the students need to pay, making it ideal for poor students. However, Hagun is also stricter on taking in students, as new students require at least a general level of abilities and capabilities.
Mage-Knight Schools are schools that train upcoming student knights, to become full-grown Blazers. There are a number of schools around the world, with just Japan having seven. Most schools do not have entrance exams, and any person with the qualities of a "knight" is accepted. However, some schools like Hagun Academy, do take students selectively, requiring a certain Rank. Most schools require the students to pay tuition fee and other expenses, but there are also schools that do not require these fees.
But in Yukio's case, he was lucky as he took a special exam from the Mage's Association and passed it with flying colors, and as a result of that, his tuition was completely waived off and under a scholarship under the condition that his Sacred Gear was not to be revealed at any point to the public unless it was an emergency due to his high aptitude, and as him being a Soul Reaper Blazer.
He has already gotten his school uniform on, black arm warmers that stopped at his first knuckles and had a hole for his thumb underneath his sleeves, and black and silver headphones around his neck. When he got to the front entrance, there were many other students talking to each other and some meeting each other for the first time.
"Well, I guess this is it," Yukio said to himself as he walked towards a mini-group of students. "Let's get this over with. Hey, is this where the entrance ceremony will be held?"
One guy, a handsome blonde-haired young man with gray eyes, turned to Yukio and answered, "Yeah, it is."
"Wait!" came the voice of a petite young woman with purple eyes and short orange hair tied in a ponytail to her left side as she ran over to him and pointed at him. "Are you Yukio Kurozakura?!"
Yukio widened his eyes in shock as the others looked at him.
"What?!" 'So much for hiding…' he thought as he was soon surrounded by many of the other Freshman students.
"So you're the one that's almost tied with Princess Stella with the all-time record?"
"Is it really him?!"
"He looks completely normal."
"Give me your autograph!"
'Screw this!' Yukio thought to himself as he snuck underneath and crawled out of the crowd and hid behind one of the buildings. From there, he sighed in relief, thankful to avoid being bombarded even further.
"Man, this bites!" he fumed as he decided to calm himself down as he entered into the building, not knowing that he just entered into the Girls' Dormitory….
** At the Girls' Dormitory **
He finally made it to the dorm room and he stepped inside to expect to see his luggage. As he shut the door behind him, he saw that someone else's shoes were at the floor near the door.
'Oh, I see that my roommate's here already,' he thought as he walked into the bedroom, but it was there that he ran into trouble…
As he entered into the bedroom, he came face-to-face with a young girl who's the same age as him. She had white skin, ruby eyes, and long crimson hair tied into twintails.
She had what would be considered a bewitching body, with large breasts and a voluptuous figure. And she was currently standing in her silk underwear. Yukio stood there for a minute staring as the girl turned around and saw him. The two stood there staring at each other as the girl's face turned red. She was about to say something, but Yukio stopped her.
"Stop," he said and she just blinked.
"Who the hell are you?" he asked coldly. Truth be told, Yukio had become a bit of a jerk since he was a kid. Honestly, he has had very little interactions with females since he was 10 except his aunt, his sisters, and a few of their friends, not to say he's dense or anything.
"Also, can I just say…you look very sexy in that by the way," he said honestly. At that, he sure wasn't expecting the girl's face to turn even redder, or for her to say….
"N-NO!"
SLAP!
….and then slap him.
** At the Hallway **
Yukio was walking the hall with a red handprint on the side of his face. Shaking his head, a now moody Yukio has found one of the restrooms, finding it cracked, and opened the door to find a sickening sense of Déjà vu as someone was already in the restrooms and forgot to close and lock the door when using it.
It was an incredibly young woman of average height with long crimson hair that reached down to her waist, violet eyes, fair skin, a distinctly voluptuous body with G-cup breasts, and wearing the female school uniform.
Oh, and she was just pulling up her panties when she stopped midair and stared at Yukio in shock.
"Are you kidding me?!" Yukio gasped in disbelief before he stepped on something. It was a note that was supposed to be on the door, but instead, it was on the floor as it said…
The lock has been tampered with by perverted boys. As we're in the process of buying a new lock, make sure you knock first. – Dorm Manager
"Ah sh*t…" Yukio sighed and started to leave. "Listen, I'm s-"
But he quickly stopped and frowned when the redhead showed the tall-tell signs of screaming, and he wasn't going to be fooled twice, so this time, he quickly moved and clamped his hand on her mouth and silenced her with a glare.
"Don't scream. I'm only going to say this once. I didn't see the sign that was supposed to be on the door, so I'm at fault here. I admitted it. I'm sorry for barging in on you like that, but next time, close the door completely, okay?" Yukio quickly told her and scowled when the girl started to struggle.
"Knock it off!" he yelled as his voice cracked like a whip, making her obey.
"I'm going to remove my hand from your mouth now, and then I'm going to leave. If you scream, and do anything else I don't like, I won't be held responsible for what misery I'm going to put you through. Is that understood?" he asked.
The busty redhead nodded quickly, making him smile.
"Good," he sighed in relief. "I'm glad that we could come to an agreement. Now, if you'll excuse me…"
Yukio turned on his heel and walked away, but before he could get to the doorway, his danger senses went off and ducked a kick that was aimed at him from behind. He then caught the next kick and pushed it away, making the girl stumble back.
"What the hell do you think you're doing, redhead?!" Yukio growled, seriously not in the mood for anymore trivial crap or misunderstandings.
"What I'm doing, you say?" the girl asked menacingly as she cracked her knuckles. "You saw me using the toilet, then you came inside, put your hand over my mouth, and told me not to scream! Think about what you just did in the next world!"
"Never said I didn't warn you, firecrotch…" Yukio snarled as he has finally lost it as the girl went in for a punch on the other cheek.
BONK! BONK! WHAM!
"Hey! What's going on? What's taking so long?"
The director, Kurono Shinguuji, came to the doorway, accompanied by a young girl with silver-white hair, purple eyes, a modern bust size that's borderline flat, and wearing a black and white goth-like outfit; to see Yukio's fist steaming with the redhead on the ground, holding her head in pain with multiple comedic lumps on it.
"Oh, hey Aunt…"
"Director…"
"Eh?" both Yukio and the busty redhead blinked and looked at each other, wondering why the other knew Kurono, with the girl next to Kurono blinking too.
"Oh, boy," Kurono sighed, putting a hand to her head, knowing that this was going to be really awkward.
** At the Director's Office **
Yukio was now in a pretty bad mood and was void of any humor as Kurono smoked a cigarette, looking over the new students' files. She already looked over Stella's file, along with Mio's and now, she was looking over Yukio's.
'Now that I think about it, I wonder if he'll ever use that technique,' she thought. 'He and Ikki did come up with it together, after all. It's been a long time since I've seen him use it, too.'
"I can't believe you set me up, auntie," Yukio said with an angry look.
"I have no idea what you're talking about," Kurono spoke.
"Oh, really? Room assignments ring a bell?"
"OK, on that subject, that was your fault for walking into the girl's dormitory."
"T-The girl's dormitory?!" he asked, embarrassed. "Well, at least that little demon-chan wasn't involved this time."
"You better not let her catch you calling her that. You know how she gets when you call her that."
"True, but let's not forget that it's only because she has a nickname that she likes me to call her, and I will never, ever, EVER utter it as long as my life's not in danger," he told her and they conceded with that. "Plus, it's her fault for teaching me to be a smart *ss."
"That may be true, but for you to not only see one girl in her underwear and saying that she looked sexy, but to also run into her cousin in the bathroom as well…you really must have bad luck when it comes to women…."
"That second part was an accident and nothing more," Yukio said, rolling his eyes. "I never even got the chance to use the restroom…"
"Are you making excuses again?" the second redhead asked from outside, with Yukio narrowing his eyes.
"It's not an excuse if it's the truth. You're the one who overreacted, Red," Yukio countered while looking mockingly bored while Kurono sighed in annoyance.
"Seriously, I need to deal with that indecent woman for corrupting my young nephew's mind. At least she hasn't gotten to Shizuku…yet," Kurono said to herself before directing her attention back towards Yukio. "Anyways, Yukio, you should know that Hagun Academy has one of the best track records among all the chivalry schools in Japan."
"Yes, I know this; you've said it before," he replied.
"And you also know that at the Seven Stars Battle Festival, which decides the strongest student knight, our school representatives have won almost every year," Kurono continued.
"I know this, too," Yukio replied.
"But lately, in the past few years, we haven't had good results, especially with last year. That's why I took up the post of director on behalf of a good friend of mine in the hopes to rebuild the school. But you've just gone and pulled such an act of misconduct not once, but twice, my sweet little nephew?" Kurono asked.
"Sorry, Auntie," Yukio apologized as he shrugged and Kurono sighed again. "But like I said, I blame that little demon-chan."
"You can't blame her for everything."
"I can for this!" he retorted.
"You keep using Nene as an excuse. You wouldn't happen to have a crush on her by chance, my little nephew?" Kurono asked with a smirk.
"N-No! No way! The reason I! I mean! I don't! Awe, never mind!" he blubbered with a blush on his face, looking away from her. "Whatever. Like I said, I'm sorry."
"Oh, its not me you need to apologize to," Kurono said as she snapped her fingers as the door opened. "But it's definitely got to be with those two."
Yukio turned to see both Stella Vermillion Gremory and her cousin that almost made them look like twins as they both were looking all over the place, one trying to avoid making eye contact with Yukio and sighed when the other was glaring hard at him.
'This is seriously going to be a pain in the *ss,' he thought before he walked over to them. He put his left hand in his pocket and held out his right hand for a handshake.
'What is with this guy?!' Stella thought in anger.
'He doesn't even bow or anything when he apologizes!' the other redhead thought in anger.
"Look. I'm sorry. I didn't mean for what happened to happen to the two of you and I didn't mean to do what I did. It truly wasn't on purpose or anything," he apologized before he sighed and continued. "So whatever it is you want me to do for an apology is fine with me. I'll do whatever you want."
"What's your name?" Stella asked.
"My name is Yukio Kurozakura," he answered, surprising the two girls.
'Is he….Wait! There's no way! There's no way his name is the same as the missing prince I've heard about!' Stella thought. "No really. Stop lying and tell me your name."
Yukio had a tick mark on his head and replied, "Don't call me a liar! That's my name, so deal with it!"
"Hmph, as if you have the same name as that prince that went missing 5 years ago," the other redhead said.
"He's actually telling the truth," Kurono told them. "Yukio Kurozakura, meet Stella Vermillion Gremory and her first cousin once removed, Mio Naruse Gremory."
"And I'm Maria Naruse Gremory! Mio's little sister!" the white haired girl said with a bright smile as she came into the room. "And this boy really does have the same name as the missing prince?!"
Yukio nodded.
"Well, you're manly, to say the least," Stella responded. "To be honest, I thought we'd make this an international issue, but in light of your spirit, I will respond generously on behalf of my cousin. Mio and I will forgive you….if you commit hara-kiri (Ritual Suicide)."
"No way in hell, princess!" Yukio yelled crossly.
"Huh?! You said you'd do whatever we ask!" Stella responded.
"Yeah, but there's no way in hell I'm committing suicide over something as stupid as walking in on you two! You've got to be f*cking insane!"
"Stupid?!" both Mio and Stella asked, getting crosser.
"Yeah, all I did was see your underwear! It's not like it was all that special anyway!"
At that, both Mio and Stella were really ticked off as the latter activated her fire magic as small embers started rising up around her. At that moment, Kurono got up, gestured for Maria to follow and walked towards the door.
"Bye, little nephew," Kurono said before closing the door behind her and Maria.
Yukio just looked at the door and waved, "Yeah, bye, you two. I'll try to make sure stuff doesn't get burned."
Mio also had fireballs formed on her hands as Stella said, "Be prepared, you creepy, perverted and rude commoner boy. We will turn you to ashes ourselves!"
Yukio responded by covering his arms and legs in a violet crystal shaped-like armor as pale blue sparks started to fly off of him. Then the fire alarm went off as they walked closer to each other.
"You snuck into my room, defiled my skin, and even ran into my cousin while she was using the bathroom! How dare you!" Stella growled.
"Oh, shut up! I didn't know that I was in the girls' dormitory in the first place!" he defended himself.
"You liar!" Mio snapped. "You looked at us naked with an indecent look in your eyes! Like you were licking it and mocking it, you were staring at us!"
"Ha! You wouldn't know an indecent look, even if it was staring at you in the face!" Yukio countered.
"Of course, we would know what one looked like; it was on your face! Now Yukio, you will die here!" Stella yelled as she went to attack him….
WHOOSH!
….but then suddenly, the door suddenly opened, and before Yukio knew what happened, Stella's attack was blocked, causing a huge burst of wind to suddenly blow all over the room as the sprinkler system was turned on.
As Yukio opened his eyes from the surprise block, his eyes widened to see who blocked Stella's attack. It was a young man with long silver hair that reaches up to his back and tied in a ponytail and has green colored eyes while wearing the male school uniform, and just now, he has a large shield forming in front of him. Yukio couldn't believe that this man just came out of nowhere and saved him at the last minute.
Then the young man turned around to see Yukio and asked, "Are you okay?"
"Y-Yeah…" Yukio replied, still in shock at what just happened.
"Then, I'm glad," the young man said as his shield disappeared, and then…
GLOMP!
"I'm so glad!"
BAM!
…out of nowhere, the young man just hugged Yukio as they both fell to the ground.
"I couldn't wait to see you, Yukio!" the young man happily cheered.
"Ow, ow, ow…" Yukio moaned as he certainly felt dazed and surprised before the young man let go of the hug and got up.
"W-Wh-What is going on here?!" Mio and Stella asked, surprised at this as well.
"Yes, what's going on here?" Kurono asked as she and Maria came in.
"I forgot to introduce myself," the young man giggled to himself as he straightened himself out and said, "I'm Emile. Emile Crossfode. I'm also a new student here at Hagun Academy. Let's get along, 'kay?"
Yukio blushed a little bit for some reason, and Stella saw it.
'This is outrageous! He's a complete jerk!' she thought, but as she looked at Yukio, she couldn't help but wonder what had caused his odd appearance. 'His right eye is plain white, but it doesn't seem natural. I wonder what happened to it.'
"In any event, you should be lucky that you weren't caught red-headed in the girls' dormitory," Kurono warned Yukio. "Such an offense like that will cause severe consequences, especially with what happened last year…"
"What happened last year?" Emile asked.
"Let's say that 3 particular boys decided to sneak into the girls' bath and peek at them, but then they decided to do something really stupid and try to steal their underwear, doing God-Knows-What. Worse, they even took mine…"
"Really?!" Yukio asked in shock. "Who in their stupid minds would do something like that?!"
"The Perverted Trio," Mio answered. "They are the most hated, disgusting boys in this school, and they're absolutely shameless."
"Yeah, just like you!" Stella pointed to him, but Yukio ignored her as Kurono continued.
"As a result, the dormitories got split into two: One for the boys, and the other for the girls, and I made a law that men are not allowed into the girls' dormitory and vice-versa, under any circumstances, no exceptions."
"OK, good," Yukio sighed in relief. "Because a princess like her, who's A-ranked and the strongest wouldn't even try to be in the same room as me, who's F-ranked."
"Huh?! You failed?!" Stella, Mio, Maria, and especially Emile asked in shock.
"Yeah, I did," Yukio replied in a bored tone.
"B-But how could you fail?! You're super strong! I know it!" Emile protested as Yukio shrugged.
Kurono cleared her throat, gaining their attention.
"Actually, dear nephew, I knew you would try and fail on purpose, but since you went to the Mage's Association, I asked the Grand Master to put you under surveillance before, during and after that test," she smiled innocently and Yukio looked surprised.
"Wait? You did what?! You violated my privacy?!" Yukio asked as he pointed at her with an accusing finger and a betrayed expression.
"Yep, and with the information gathered, you easily made A-rank. Nice try, though," said Kurono as Yukio just looked at his aunt defeated while Emile looked at him saddened while Stella and Mio looked at him with an angry expression.
"You tried to fail on purpose! Why would you do that, you coward?!" Stella asked, causing Yukio to glare at her.
"Shut it! You don't know anything about Yukio to say that!" Emile shouted while Mio scoffed.
"I know that only a coward would try and fail on purpose, which he is," Mio said as Yukio's glare grew harsher, which actually shook her and Stella a bit.
"It's none of your business, and I do what I want to do, Mio and Stella, so keep your mouth shut while you still have it," Yukio spoke coldly.
"Fine! And besides, we really don't like talking to you anyway!" Stella responded. "In fact, don't talk to us, don't open your eyes and don't breathe should we cross paths with each other again."
"Oh, drop to hell and burn in f*cking hellfire, you self-absorbed little princess!" Yukio spoke, clearly aggravated. "I'll only follow one of those rules!"
"Damn you, Kurozakura! Then you can live outside of the dorms!" Mio snapped back.
"Say what! You're telling me I'm not even allowed inside the dorms?!" Yukio asked angrily.
"What, you can't do it?" Stella asked.
At that, Yukio and Maria had the urge to laugh, but the two just put their hand over their mouth, stifling their laughter.
"What's so funny?!" Stella asked.
"O-Oh, n-nothing. I was just *chuckle* going to say that I'm *chuckle* going to f*cking breathe, damn it," Yukio said through his stifled laughter.
"No, you aren't! You're thinking about smelling us, aren't you, you pervert?!" Stella asked and Yukio calmed himself down just to sigh.
"Fine then, I'll breathe through my mouth," Yukio answered.
"No! You're thinking about tasting the air we exhaled, aren't you, you little deviant?!" Mio asked and Yukio developed a tick mark on his head as he was getting cross.
"For all that is…will you two stop being so damn stupid?!" he asked angrily.
"We're not being stupid! If you don't like it, then quit the school!" Stella growled as Yukio looked at her with a deadpan stare.
"That makes no damn sense," Yukio said in a bored tone.
"Calm down, all 3 of you," Kurono said with a sigh. "Chivalry is about deciding your own destiny with your sword and your other special powers. Isn't it?"
"Are you saying we should let our abilities do the talking?" Yukio asked.
"Yes," Kurono answered. "You can do a mock battle, and whoever wins gets to decide what to do with the loser."
"That seems….fair enough. What about you, Gremory?" Yukio asked as he looked at Stella and Mio with the former looked at him with an arched eyebrow.
"What? You, an A-ranked knight that tried to fail on purpose against me? Excuse me for being so blunt, but there's no way someone who appears to be a coward can beat me who's an experienced A-rank," Stella replied.
Yukio looked completely unfazed before he shrugged.
"You should never be so overconfident. In combat, you never know the end results until you've actually engaged your opponent," he said before he put left hand in his pocked and clenched his right hand into a fist. "And besides, I'm working my hardest to control what very may well kill me. I've been working too hard for too long and-"
"Alright, I'll do it," Stella interrupted him, gritting her teeth. "That match, but if that's the case, the loser will obey the winner for the rest of his life!"
"And no matter how humiliating, he must become the servant who follows order like a dog!" Mio followed.
Yukio raised both hands into the air by his head as he said, "Now, you might be taking it a little too far now, princess."
Stella stomped over to him and yelled, "That. Is. The. Deal! And you will lose the attitude! You got that?!"
"Humph. You actually have to win first, princess, and even if I wanted to, my personality won't be changing that easily," Yukio said as he crossed his arms.
"We'll see about that," Mio said with a smirk.
"It's looks like it's settled then," Kurono smiled before making a serious look on her face. "An hour from now…"
"Hold it right there!" Emile interrupted the director, raising his hand, with everyone looking at him. "I think that we should give Yukio more time! At least 3 days!"
"And why should we wait for that long?" Kurono asked.
"It's because….he needs to retrain himself with his sword," Emile answered. "And from what I heard, he hasn't used his sword in the past 5 years!"
Everyone, except Yukio and Emile, gasped as the Director looked at Yukio and saw the lifeless look on his face, and what Emile says next confirms it.
"He hasn't used his sword…ever since…that incident 5 years ago, and he swore to never use it again."
Kurono's eyes widened in sheer horror, because she just now remembered EXACTLY what happened 5 years ago. It had something to do with….
…the Hero Clan.
"So if he was to go to battle one hour from now, it wouldn't be much of a battle in the first place, and that's why I suggest that you should give him a little more time, but in exchange, we're going to raise the stakes!" Emile continued as everyone looked at him as he breathed out and said, "If Yukio wins, Stella and Mio will apologize to him and this will be nothing more than a complete accident, and on top of that, he's going to be roommates with me!"
Yukio gasped at that, but then Emile said…
"But should either Mio or Stella wins the match against Yukio, then I'LL be the one who'll their orders for all eternity, while Yukio….gets expelled from this school permanently, effective immediately!"
Both Yukio and Kurono gasped in shock and horror at Emile's conditions, knowing that this has DEFINITELY gone way too far.
"Now, look here…" was all Kurono could say before Mio and Stella immediately responded….
"We accept!"
At that, Kurono facepalmed, now knowing that this situation has just gone from bad to worse.
"In fact, you are a lot cuter than him, so you'll definitely do," Stella said as Yukio moaned angrily, and even Kurono knew that there's no way getting out of this.
"Who asked you to decide?!" Yukio asked angrily to Emile, but the damage was done.
"Very well….we'll begin a mock battle at the Fourth Training Field on Monday!" Kurono sighed in defeat, along with Yukio before Stella and Mio glared at him with the latter growling with a threatening aura….
"Prepare to lose badly, Yukio Kurozakura. Until then, you better hope that we don't meet each other again until the battlefield, or else we'll kill you a hundred times over."
And with that, both Mio and Stella walked out of the office with Maria following Mio, shutting the door behind them, thankfully missing Yukio's ticked off look on his face as his eyebrows twitched in anger.
Emile took no notice and said to him, "Don't you worry! We'll show them! You can definitely beat her! I know it! Permission to help him train, Director?"
"Permission granted…" Kurono replied while still facepalming herself, sighing heavily.
"There's no time to waste! Let's go, Yukio!" Emile spoke with determination as he took Yukio's hand, and when that happened….
!
….Yukio could've sworn that Emile's hand….was almost as warm as THAT girl 10 years ago….
'Could it be? No, it can't be….' he thought to himself as Emile pulled Yukio out of the office.
"Wait!" Kurono warned. "Don't slam the-"
SLAM!
"…door…"
Kurono then went to her desk and slouched down on the chair, smoking heavily on her cigarette.
"And to think that he's an A-ranking in all areas except for two," she said to herself. "And to those who know of his abilities, he's known as the Cold One and a few other nicknames, but to think that the incident from the Hero Clan 5 years ago would still haunt him to this day….I need to call Jin and find out what really happened…"
But before she could…
"Well, that was something…." a new voice was heard, making the Director to look at the door and see 3 new people coming in.
First came yet, another busty, crimson redhead, but it looked like she's older. In fact, she's a 17-year-old young woman, a Senior who's 5' 6" tall with crimson red hair that reaches down to her thighs, with a single ahoge sticking out from the top and loose bangs covering her forehead and side bangs framing her face; a buxom figure and DD-cup breasts, beautiful blue-green colored eyes, and wearing the female school uniform. She's the President of the Occult Research Club, and one of the Four Great Ladies of Hagun Academy, along with Mio and Stella, who just happens to be her niece and cousin, respectively, Rias Gremory.
Second is the fourth member of the Four Great Ladies, a raven-haired beauty who's the Vice-President of the Occult Research Club. She's a 5' 8" buxom young woman with E-cup breasts who is a Senior and is around the same age as Rias with long black hair and violet eyes as her hair is tied in a long ponytail, reaching all the way down to her legs with two antennae sticking out from the top and sloping backwards, with an orange ribbon keeping it in place. Her name is Akeno Himejima.
And the final one is a young woman around the same age as Rias and Akeno with black hair styled in a short bob cut and violet eyes. She wears a pair of red glasses and has a slim figure, but around her aura is a no-nonsense attitude. She's the new President of the Student Council, Souna Shitori, a Senior and the third most popular girl in the Academy.
"How much did you hear?" Kurono asked carefully.
"When that Emile fellow gave the new conditions between Stella and…Yukio Kurozakura, I believe?" Akeno asked as Kurono nodded.
"Indeed, he is," Kurono answered before she heard a heavy sigh from Souna. "And from what I've heard from that sigh, I assume that you've just dealt with…him again?"
"You mean Issei Hyoudou and his friends that call themselves the Perverted Trio?" Souna asked. "You have no idea…"
(FLASHBACK TIME! – 30 minutes ago)
** At the Infirmary **
"…good grief, Hyoudou… How many times does this make this month?"
Issei Hyoudou, a young teen with brown eyes and hair, slightly spiked up at the back, scratched his cheek with an abashed look on his face, sitting across from Souna with a glare reflected upon her glasses. In fact, for Souna, Issei was the biggest headache she has ever met.
As a matter of fact, Issei, despite having some good points, like surprisingly hard-working (but not as much as Yukio's), he's a 24/7 hot-blooded pervert who has been known for his total obsession with the female body, most particularly, their breasts, and even dreams of having his own harem. He's also ignorant, self-centered, arrogant, and has gained him notoriety for being one of the members of the Perverted Trio.
Not to mention that he's a natural-born loser; an ordinary high school student with poor grades, a wimpy attitude, bad luck (much worse than Yukio's), and lack of athleticism. He often doubts himself and quits easily, skipping or ditching his classes without any good reason.
Oh, and to top it all off, he's the main reason why the dormitories were split into boys and girls as he was the one who came up with the idea to steal the girls' underwear while they were taking a bath….and why the school's reputation is falling.
"I don't know…" Issei answered as he rubbed his arm. Bandages were wrapped around his torso and left arm while a small band-aid was found at his cheek, covering up a particularly nasty bruise. "The third…fourth time?"
"Try thirteenth," Souna said, deadpanned. "Normally, sexual harassment would otherwise have you on grounds of expulsion…yet the only reason I haven't done so, and neither does the Director is because of your academic potential."
She pushed up her glasses, removing the glare to show her beautiful eyes digging into his own. Issei promptly recoiled, feeling as if he was standing before the Shinigami himself.
"While you may not have any….skills in your abilities in any fashion whatsoever, you made it up with a GPA of 3.7 while the requirement for non-skilled students to enroll here is 3.5. Not noteworthy, but impressive enough," Souna explained, increasing her glare. For a moment, the boy felt killing intent. "So explain to me why a smart boy such as yourself is constantly getting beaten to within an inch of his life, on multiple occasions, I might add, for trying to peek on the school's kendo club in the locker room?"
"Ehehe…" Issei chuckled awkwardly from the glare she was giving him. "Because…I…uh…."
"Because what?"
"W-Well, a man has urges, you know?" '…ouch,' he cringed inwardly. 'Who knew a glare could hurt so much?'
The disappointment from Souna's stare spoke volumes. For several seconds, she stared at him with an unreadable expression that made him shift uncomfortably in his seat. Eventually, she sighed as she pinched her nose.
"…as always, you never cease to amaze me with how far you're willing to punish yourself, simply to sake your own libido," she muttered before giving him a critical glare. "For the next week, you'll be serving detention, along with Motohama and Matsuda. The Director and I expect the three of you to be there on time by 3:35 P.M. Any later, and you can expect a more severe punishment."
"Y-Yes, President…." Issei whimpered, nodding swiftly in succession.
The young woman gave a grunt.
"I suppose that concludes our business then," she remarked as she stood up as she made her way towards the door. "Also, please be aware not to even look at the school nurse for an excuse, and let's not forget that even I have a tolerance limit. Any more repeats like today, and this will be heading towards the Director, who may be forced to suspend you, or worse. Please try and understand that."
"Y-Yes, ma'am…."
With that, Souna closed the door behind her, leaving Issei to himself, alone in the Infirmary. He sighed heavily and stood up from his chair, soon falling onto the bed with a wince. His side burned madly in pain, still feeling bamboo pelting it. Groaning, he rolled onto his back, soon letting out a blissful gasp.
In all honesty, he was used to the pain, being on the receiving end of the Kendo Club's wooden swords on a constant basis.
Then again, the pain was worth it, and seeing the school nurse after was even more. Why, you ask?
'Haaa….Murayama and Katase's bodies are so f*cking beautiful, but nowhere near as godly as Nurse Hasegawa's! This school f'n rocks!'
Because as mentioned before, he was a pervert of the highest degree. How he managed to get into this school with a high GPA score and without any abilities in magic and swordsmanship is still a mystery, but to him, it was the best decision he ever made without question.
Although, going by what Souna told him…he might have to cut back on his daily activities.
As much as he enjoyed appreciating the bodies of the fairer sex, he was not keen on getting expelled from school over such a thing. That, and chances were, his parents would kill him.
No, wait, scratch that. Lament over the fact that he was never going to get married, and then kill him.
Seriously, what was the problem for having an appreciation for the butts and breasts of naked skin?! He didn't see what was wrong!
Regardless, Issei needed to take Souna's words to heart. Sighing, he ran a hand down on his face.
"Detention's going to suck…."
(FLASHBACK ENDS!)
Sighing heavily, Kurono took a look at Issei's profile, and not surprisingly, she was disappointed.
"No signs of magical potential, whatsoever," she murmured. "And no signs or hints of possessing either a Device, or even a Sacred Gear for that matter. All in all, this is just nothing more than an ordinary human being. That troublesome boy is going to be the death of me and this school. And to think that he, of all people, got a letter of recommendation from Kuoh Academy…."
Rias smiled a little and said, "And you never could resist leaving a puzzle unsolved."
"Yet this puzzle is leaving me and the Director quite vexed because of its perversion," Souna said flatly as she adjusted her glasses. "He obviously studied extensively to get here, yet ever since, his grades have been either short of average or below average. The scores on the entrance exam only speak of his academic skills, but from Day 1, all he's ever done is peek on the kendo club in the locker rooms as they change, as well as peek from the girls' dormitory pool, where the majority of the girls are taking their baths."
"Indeed," Kurono agreed as her left eyebrow twitched. "If it wasn't for him, I would've made Yukio and Stella roommates, but this is only going to give those stupid boys an excuse to only satisfy their own lust, and who knows how many more after that, and that may plummet our reputation down and hard. At this point, I'm debating whether or not you should have Tsubasa, Touka or Nene be in charge of his discipline."
Akeno giggled at this, amused by both Souna and Kurono's attitudes. "Ara ara. This is the first time we've ever see you two so vexed."
"It's because he's extremely aggravating to deal with. No matter the outcomes and consequences, he's unrepentant of his actions," Kurono groaned, sighing heavily.
"Indeed, Director," Souna agreed. "Sometimes, I wonder if we should just return Hagun back to an all-girls academy. At least then, I wouldn't have to deal with this."
"But if you did that, you'd lose Genshirou," Rias told her with a small smile. "Besides, I for one think that following his desires is rather adorable, don't you?"
"Only you would think so, Rias," Kurono answered. "Not to mention that if we did turn it back to an all-girls school, we would make a repeat of not even making it to the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival. It was embarrassing and humiliating then, and I'm making sure that it's not going to happen again."
After smoking her cigarette, Kurono then remembered something important.
"Ah, now that you guys are here….what's the current situation with….the Fallen Angels?"
As soon as Kurono asked that question, the atmosphere became more serious as everyone frowned at that topic.
"Unfortunately, they still have yet to make any movements," Rias answered. "And the Demons are still scattered around the downtown area of Tokyo, but they too, have not made any important moves yet. They remained in what I could only assume as their base of operations."
"The base of operations for the Fallen Angels in question is the abandoned church on the outskirts between the Academy and the city. It's rather old and worn down, but it hasn't been occupied until now," Akeno followed.
"For the meantime, I'll have Koneko keep an eye out, and I'll tell Maria to stay close with Mio, and if necessary, have Erza be with Koneko as backup," Rias suggested as she put a hand to her chin. "I still don't understand…why would they risk invading our territory? Especially given who our siblings are?"
Kurono sighed. "Then again, Mio IS going to be the Future Demon Lord of the Underworld, so it's no surprise that she's a high-priority target, and even still, we must watch them carefully."
"After all, simply because we are in the middle of a ceasefire doesn't mean we are out of the woods yet," Souna added. "While there maybe talks of a peace treaty, everyone is treading on thin ice. All it takes is a few sparks to set off the explosives."
"And that is why I'm more thankful of pushing the Festival back a couple of months at least because of this, because the last thing I want is a war to break within these premises," Kurono told them.
"True enough…" Rias agreed.
"I am glad you understand, and hopefully, Mio and Stella will understand the severity of the situation," Souna followed. "So please remember to tread carefully."
At this, Rias scoffed, "Don't I always? I also know that Mio and Stella will do the same thing, hands down."
"That's what has me concerned…." Souna said while lowering her eyelids.
** At the Sky **
"Hmph….what a backwater town…"
That was the only opinion the figure could give as she surveyed the city down below her. Had anybody seen her, they would've mistaken her for a bird, or most likely, a crow, given the feathered, ebony black wings that rested behind her shoulders. She was perhaps the embodiment of a cold beauty, with a beautiful face that resembled near perfection, her luscious pink lips set into a scowl of disdain. Her figure was slender, her skin without blemish nor stain, and her figure a finely-shaped hourglass. Her attire was a little more than black leather, straps moving in various directions with spikes at the right side of her shoulders and at the heel. Her posture was set into lazy boredom, legs crossed over one another with a hand cupping her cheek, staring down at the town and the large school with disinterest. Her violet eyes gazed at it with apathy while her silky black hair flowed through the breezes that past by her.
She just couldn't understand why she was sent here. She didn't question her orders, as they came directly from her superior, the person she loved and admired more than anything else in the world. That being said, she still didn't quite understand why she was here, but she never questioned it. This city, as exciting as it was, was a city of little interest to her, and why should it? It was nothing more than a city of lazy, pathetic lower beings, though she did receive a few letters from her friend, Kalawarner, that there was some excitement to be had, though the context of such letters had only made her roll her eyes when it involved seducing younger men than herself….which was saying a whole lot, given how old she was. Heck, just about almost all of them were nearly a century old! But, getting back on topic, her orders were to simply observe someone in the city. She was given a picture of the person that had suddenly interest her superior, but she would receive the details either from Dohnaseek, another of her ilk, who's tasked with watching over the town, or the assigned leader of this task, whom she doesn't know yet.
With that said, caution was advised. Backwater town it may be, it was still the territory of both the Pillars of Gremory and Sitri, and given that, she dared not want to imagine what would happen if they violated the peace here. If they had, a fate worse than death was sure to be upon them, and death was not exactly high on their priorities. She sighed to herself as she began to fly to where her friends were, stationed at a small rundown church at the outskirts of the city. As she did so, she pulled out a small paper from out of her cleavage, little more than a small photograph. Her target was printed on it, a boy with long silver spiky hair that passed on his back with lots of wounds and cuts all over his body with a pained expression on his face. The Fallen Angel was not impressed in the slightest as she rolled her eyes at the face of the person she was asked to investigate. To her, he didn't even look the slightest bit interesting, heck, he was even more bland than she expected.
"I'll never understand what Lord Azazel sees in pathetic humans like this," she said to herself as she held little interest over humans.
In fact, there was a great disdain for them in her heart. Even though God had made them in His image, they had done nothing to deserve the love, respect, admiration and recognition from Him. No, all they did was ruin themselves. One does not need to look any further than its history. How many civilizations fell at the hands of their own folly? How many kingdoms fell at their own foolish actions? How many kings were slain because of their incompetence? How many years have passed since humanity had ever, truly, come to realize their mistakes and break free from this wretched path of theirs? The fallen angel held them in so little regard that, in a small part of her, she greatly enjoyed their suffering. In fact, she even heard word about Mio Naruse Gremory and her powers and is being targeted by Demons, who are enjoying killing humans when the Devils least expected it. To her, maybe there is some entertainment after all, as there was another part of her that resented them. He believed that humans were worth attention, but why? What was so great about them? Why would they have to watch over such pathetic beings? They were so much greater…higher beings!
Bottom Line: This Fallen Angel hated humans. Simple as that.
"Hmph, and to think that I would be working with you….Raynare. But then again, these pathetic low lives are so easy to be fooled and killed."
And apparently, from the hearing of her voice, so does this newcomer, who has 8 wings from her back. When Raynare looked behind her, her teeth sharpened with anger as she hated this Fallen Angel…a lot.
"What are you doing here….b*tch?" Raynare asked with venom in her voice.
"That's Lady Malty to you," the woman, Malty S. Melromarc, corrected her. Malty was first described by many as a lovely girl with wavy semi-long crimson hair that is tied up in a ponytail with hair strands going on either side, emerald-green eyes, a pretty cute and youthful facial features, but to anyone who knows her, her personality is anything but cute, and ironically, Raynare knows it.
"Please don't that tell me that YOU, of all Fallen, is the appointed leader here," Raynare whispered to herself, but Malty heard what she said, and a sinister smile on her face was it needed to tell Raynare that she is the appointed leader. "God f*cking damn it…."
Raynare knew that in missions like this one, she would usually do the hard work, but Malty here would usually take credit, doing whatever it takes for her to be praised, and that's one of the many reasons why Raynare hated her, and yet ironically, she learned a lot from her as they both only had one thing in common: They are both power hungry.
Raynare knew that she may have to call on her sisters to keep an eye on Malty should she do anything...nasty.
Now, the big question is…who's going to approach the target first?
** Inside the Main Building; Auditorium **
(20 minutes later)
The small orange-haired girl from earlier bowed down and apologized, "I'm sorry, Yukio. I shouldn't have yelled out like that."
"That's right, Reitia," said the blonde-haired boy from earlier as he patted the girl's head. "Apologize."
Reitia Saint-Émillion fumed as she knew about her small height and the tall boy was taking advantage of her.
"Fritz!" Reitia screamed. "I told you to stop treating me like a kid."
"Well, it's your fault for having your head at such a perfect height," Fritz Glanz teased Reitia as he patted her head again.
"They've been friends since they were kids," Emile told Yukio as he pulled into Yukio's arm, embarrassing him. "They're really close, huh?"
"Y-Yeah…" Yukio replied slowly as he tried to get Emile off of him, but to no avail.
"Well, you guys are pretty close yourself, even though you just met," Fritz smiled.
"Yes," Reitia replied as she took a closer look at them. "It's almost like you're not both guys."
"Really?" Emile asked as he scratched the back of his head while Yukio looked at Emile as if he had two heads. "What should we do, Yukio?"
Yukio was never in a situation like this before, and it was very strange, awkward and weird for a guy to be close to him.
** At Issei's House **
(3 hours later)
"I'm home…!" Issei tiredly announced as he dragged his feet into the entryway, placing his shoes in the cupboard and setting his bag on the rack. "Ugh…what a long day…"
"You're home late, Issei," his mother called out from the kitchen. "Did you get detention…again?"
"Yeah…" he answered, trudging into the living room. At the table, he found his father flipping through a newspaper. "What's for dinner…?"
"Beefsteak," his father answered before looking down from his paper. "And let me guess…those bruises from peeking on the kendo club again?"
Issei didn't give an answer. Instead, he waltzed over to the couch and plopped down on it, facedown in one of the pillows.
"I'll take that as a yes," his father sighed heavily, turning to his wife. "Dear?"
"Yes?"
"…are we ever going to have grandchildren?!"
Issei groaned, burying his face even further. He was too tired to even argue with his parents.
It was like this all the time. He would get into trouble, get detention, go home, and his parents lament that he could possibly stay single for the rest of his life. He didn't see what the problem was, though! He was a healthy teenage boy! Who didn't obsess over the female body at his age?!
Okay, maybe not as extensive as him, but still…
Did his parents really have to act like they were so disappointed in him, which they are? It kinda stings….it really does…
Sighing, the boy closed his eyes. He knew he would get into trouble, but detention plus Souna, and maybe even the Director, had left him utterly drained. He really just wanted to go to sleep right now.
'Maybe if I'm lucky…I'll dream up of a perfect girlfriend,' he thought, eyes sagging. 'A really cute one with a b*tchin' rack. Or maybe a couple of girlfriends….'
A perverted giggle escaped him as he soon closed his eyes, drifting off into his own perverted mind.
'Haaaah…I wonder what she'll be like when I dream of her. Hee hee hee…'
What Issei doesn't know was his dreams were actually going to come true tomorrow…
** At Hagun Academy; Near the Sports Field **
(Next Day)
Issei was lying down on the grass with his two friends, Matsuda and Motohama.
Matsuda, a perverted self-proclaimed lolicon, is a former jock and school sports star. His earned nicknames include "Perverted Baldy" and the "Sexual Harassment Papparazzi."
Motohama, another perverted man, claims to have the ability to calculate a female's body measurements just by looking at them. His own nicknames include "Perverted Glasses" and the "Three Sizes Scouter".
And if the drowsiness in the morning was of any indication, Issei knew that the early classes were going to be a b*tch.
"Dude, what's up with you?" Matsuda asked as he looked at Issei. "You look dead to the world."
"Just didn't sleep well last night…" Issei yawned.
"Still, what a drag…" Motohama sighed in despair. "President Shitori and even the former Student Council President Toudou are watching us like hawks. Now we gotta serve detention?!"
"Could've been worse…" Matsuda remarked. "We could've been expelled, especially from the panty raid incident last year, but we should be thankful that we're still here and we're getting off so lightly."
Then, Motohama giggled pervertedly as he gestured his comrades and fellow perverts at the sight of 2 beautiful girls passing by.
One was a beautiful young woman who was 5' 3" tall, had long, flowing silver hair practically down to her knees, red eyes, fair skin and large breasts.
"Whoa, an exotic beauty!" Motohama chuckled as he checked her out. "Nice! 90-56-84!"
"That's Aine Chidorigafuchi, a Junior who's in the Occult Research Club, and has a wicked tongue and likes to look down on other people, but that's what makes her hot!" Matsuda said with a perverted chuckle.
"Oh, and look over there! 96-56-94! And a bodacious blonde, too!" Motohama added. "That's Yurishia Farandole, who has traveled from America to be here!"
Yurishia was walking by with her friends as the boys all admired the bounciness of her breasts. To them, it was almost hypnotic. Yurishia was a beautiful, young, Caucasian woman, 5' 5" tall, with long blonde hair reaching down to her lower back. She had brilliant blue eyes like his, fair skin, and had a mature aura compared to her age. She also boasts a large rack, on par with Akeno's, her bust bouncing and swaying obviously with every step.
"Now, when it comes to Aine, she can be as cold as President Shitori, so on a scale of 1 to 10, where do you think she ranks?" Matsuda asked.
"10," Motohama and Issei answered, with the latter's mood improving.
"An absolute 10. She and the President all give off that S&M feel, you know?"
Issei nodded strongly.
"Oh, yeah," he grinned lecherously as he envisioned Aine in revealing leather, whip in hand while her boot pressed against a rather obvious tent in the pants of an un(fortunate) bastard who has ticked her off. "You know, maybe the reason why she and President are so grouchy is because they're sexually frustrated. Think that might be it?"
"Could be," Motohama remarked as he and the others stood up with excitement. "Aah…normally, I'd prefer being the dominant one, but I'd would let our Senior Aine be on top of me anytime~"
Together, the Perverted Trio sighed as the sight well engraved in their minds. Already, the day was looking up for them with such dirty thoughts and dreams!
"AAAAH! IT'S SIR KIBA WITH SIR FRITZ!"
"THEY'RE SO HANDSOME!"
"KIBA! FRITZ! MARRY ME!"
….and just like that, the perfect atmosphere was gone, thanks to both Fritz and the Prince of Hagun Academy: Yuuto Kiba.
Together, they make up as the Handsome Duo.
The Perverted Trio's number one enemies.
Yuuto Kiba was usually the source of the boys' ire as he was a blonde, teenage pretty boy, and with the fact that the blazer of his school uniform was closed up with a black tie around his neck, he looked like the picture perfect pretty boy.
"Geh, it's them," Matsuda growled. "What the hell do those blonde bastards have that we don't?!"
"Well, let's see. They have good looks, good grades, a good personality, good athletic skills, a high aptitude score. Need I say more?" came a mischievous, yet familiar female voice.
The trio turned around to see a girl from their class who had a slender, yet busty figure with a light complexion. Her brown hair reached her upper back, and was tied into twin braids with blue ribbons. Her hazel eyes were hidden behind a pair of pink, circled rimmed glasses, and had a smirk on her face.
"Oh, and of course, a bigger size than you."
Immediately upon seeing her, the Trio recoiled.
"YOU!" Motohama cried, holding his fingers in an X formation. "BEGONE, DEMON!"
"What do you want, Kiryuu?!" Matsuda shuddered. "Shouldn't you be ogling at some other dude's junk?"
Aika Kiryuu, one of the 2 female perverts in this school, who's ironically well-liked, giggled as she puts a hand to her hip. "I've already scouted a good number of the males here. There's quite a good group of young boys here, though they're half of the number of girls here at Hagun Academy," she said as she pushed up her glasses, staring at the boys with a grin. "And I see that my favorite group of fellow lechers is doing fine today, despite Katase and Murayama beating you all to kingdom come."
"Well, we take pride in our resilience…besides, we're used to the pain by now," Issei shrugged as the pain in his left side had faded quite a bit. Now, he only felt a minor discomfort.
"So, I see," Aika smirked before sizing him up. Issei shuddered beneath her gaze, knowing full and well of what she was doing. "By the way…I must say, Hyoudou, you're rather gifted in some areas, aren't you?"
"W-What?!" Issei asked as he instinctively moved his hands to hide his crotch from her view. She was scanning him?! "Dammit all, you she-demon! Quit perving on me!"
"Oh my, isn't that cute?" the female pervert giggled. "You enjoy peeking on others, but you're flustered when someone pervs on you~. Still, I must say, I'm surprised by what I've found. It's a shame that you'll never probably put it to good use, though."
BAM! CRITICAL HIT!
The words stabbed into him like a knife and caused him to buckle in proverbial pain.
"That's a low blow, Aika," Issei mumbled painfully. "Low blow."
"Just saying like it is," Aika responded as she stuck her tongue out playfully. "Oh, and you better hurry to class, and enjoy your last day of free peeking. Not only I've heard word that President Shitori, and the new leader of the Disciplinary Committee, Touka Toudou, are on the warpath today, but I've also heard word about the new captain of the Kendo Club, Erza Scarlet."
"Erza Scarlet?!" the boys screamed in horror as Aika walked away, giving one last wink at the boys, causing them to freeze as they all slowly turned their heads to see the 3 women in question at the Main Gate, looking at them with intense stares.
Touka Toudou is a Senior in Hagun Academy and also the former Student Council President and now the leader of the Disciplinary Committee known as Raikiri. She's also known as the strongest student in Hagun Academy. She is a beautiful and charming spectacled young woman with long light brown hair tied into two braids in the back with orange eyes. It is also noted that she has a slender yet buxom figure while having a petite waistline with Motohama noting that she has a soft and round butt.
However, it's Erza that they should be worried about. Erza Scarlet is a young woman with long, scarlet hair and brown eyes. She lost her right eye as a child and now has an artificial one. She has a slender, voluptuous figure that many girls described as "amazing," but Aine and Yurishia say otherwise. Her most common attire consists of a custom-made armor by Heart Kreuz smiths, a blue skirt, black boots, and diamond shaped silver earrings.
While Souna and Touko are known to be strict, Erza takes it to the next level as she often criticizes the bad behavior and habits of wrongdoers, especially perverts, causing most of them to apologize, fearing that they might invoke her wrath. She is also very impatient, disliking people who don't answer her questions quickly enough. This, coupled with her own tragic childhood, caused many boys to avoid her due to her social awkwardness. However, she has a great sense of justice and pride, earning many admirations from the female body.
And once the boys made eye contact with the three women, a cold shiver ran down their spines while the feeling of cold steel touched upon their necks. So they've decided to do the smartest thing they've done all day: Run like bats out of hell as they made their way to class as fast as possible.
They've already reached Souna's tolerance limit, and they most certainly didn't want to see the looks of the faces of Touka and Erza when they are majorly ticked off, especially from the latter, who's well-known to loathe perverts with a passion.
But what was about to happen next was going to change Issei Hyoudou's life forever….
As he and his friends continued running, he failed to see a buxom cute girl with long red hair that has one strand of hair sticking up and red eyes coming across his way from another direction.
And he also failed to see a banana peel that all eyes can see on the ground until it was too late.
SLIP!
"Wah!" Issei screamed as he slipped on the banana peel as he was heading towards the redheaded girl, who couldn't get out of the way in time.
CRASH!
One random student pointed at Issei, who began to recover, and said, "I-I-Issei! That's the girl who scored the highest GPA on the entrance exam and even managed to beat the current Student Council President!"
Issei was confused, but he didn't realize that his hands were on the breasts of the redheaded girl as he pushed them down a bit.
Another random guy pointed at him and spoke, "The one everyone's been gossiping about inside the academy…"
Issei pushed down on the girl's breasts again, earning a moan from her, and it was then that he realized where he was….
'T-This indescribable softness…I-It can't be….' Issei thought, really hoping that this was a dream.
It wasn't.
He was actually groping the breasts of a very cute and attractive redhead.
"Um…your hands…"
Issei's nose began to bleed as his one of his life long dreams has just been accomplished.
"O-Ow.." the girl moaned as he groped her breasts once again.
"He's groping the breasts of Chiharu Shinonome!" the boys nearby yelled as Issei's nose bled out profusely.
"P-Please move your hands…" Chiharu moaned.
"S-Sorry! I didn't mean to…" Issei responded as he got off, but he thought to himself. 'So this is what a girl's breasts feels like! I'm never washing my hands again!'
The boys were jealous of Issei.
"I-I-Issei!"
"It was an accident, but still!"
"Damn you!"
Issei felt like he was on Cloud 9, but then…
"I like this dummy!" a new voice yelled from above as they all looked up to see a large robot flying down towards them. "Yes, you, the boring guy!"
The boys quickly scattered out of here like cockroaches as Souna sighed heavily.
"Oh no….it's the Eiken Club…." she sighed to herself as the large robot, controlled by a small petite girl with short blue hair, wearing dark goggles, wearing a small lab coat, lands in front of Issei and Chiharu.
Accompanying the short girl is a tall woman with long purple hair tied in a ponytail, longer than Akeno's, black eyes, and huge jiggly breasts that is on par with Yurishia's.
"So, you are Issei Hyoudou from Class 2-F, huh?" the tall woman asked. "Congratulations on being elected!"
"S-Such wonderful breasts…" Issei said to himself as he was fixated on the large woman's chest. The tall woman smiled at this.
"Issei Hyoudou has been accepted to our club as of now!" the tall woman smiled as the robot's large arms grabs Issei and takes him to who-knows-where!
** At a Mysterious Place **
"Congratulations!" the tall woman named Kirika Misono saluted Issei as she tried to press Issei's thumb on the paper while they're in a dark room with Issei being sat on by at least 3 other people.
"W-What the hell is going on here?!" Issei asked, trying to process all of this in.
"This passive, submissive expression…" Kirika continued as she tried hard to make him press his thumb on the paper. "You have no redeeming feature of brain or body! Congratulations!"
She then cupped Issei's cheek, forcing him to face her.
"And…to top it all off…" she said as she made him look at Chiharu as the light spotted on her, who was feeling embarrassed. "You squeezed our club's most important member. You squeezed Chiharu Shinonome's 88cm F-cup breasts! So, congratulations!"
Chiharu looked at Issei and apologized, "I'm sorry about bumping into you…"
Issei had tears of joy, and wasn't punished this time. A bright change! Not only that, she also managed to check off everything on his dream list! A very cute girl with a shy (and embarrassing) personality, and most importantly (to him), huge breasts that he proudly groped by accident!
"M-Ms. Shinonome…" Issei smiled before his head was sat on by Kirika's huge butt, but in the process, his thumb was on the paper, meaning that he was now part of their club, and by force.
"Congratulations on being elected!" Kirika smiled as Issei slowly looked at her. "Welcome to the Eiken Club!"
He then soon realized that Kirika…
…wasn't wearing any panties underneath her skirt, causing him to have another nosebleed as he passes out!
'You know…I think I just arrived in Heaven…' he thought to himself as he loses conscious from too much blood loss.
For Issei Hyoudou, the leader of the Perverted Trio, his dream of becoming a Harem King was beginning to come to a reality as he was forcefully joined into the Eiken Club. And he can thank that one banana peel that slipped him into Heaven.
** At the Science Building **
"What in the world were you thinking, Emile?!" Yukio asked angrily as Emile led him inside the Science Building. "You can't just put someone's school life on the line like that! I'm going up against the Crimson Princess, one of the strongest Blazers in the world!"
Emile, however, just continued smiling and simply replied, "You'll be fine, Yukio. I'm sure you can win. After all, you did very well in the Little League Tournament and the U-12 World Tournament."
Yukio was surprised by what Emile just said as he narrowed his eyes and looked at him with suspicion.
"What are you even basing that on?" he asked as he wanted proof.
Emile reassured him as he accessed his card to open the door to the elevator, "It'll be fine. Come on, I'll introduce you to my good friend."
"Good friend?"
"She's a little wacky, but she knows her stuff. She's a Sacred Gear and Device chief researcher and the main technologist of Hagun Academy."
Yukio gasped as the doors close.
(21 stories Underground…)
"So, you're Yukio Kurozakura," spoke a woman with long white hair, sky blue eyes, and was wearing a white bodysuit under a black tight-fitting cardigan that is styled with straps in an 'X' formation across the front of the neck, that make it look like she is wearing a sexy, studded choker. The neckline is trimmed in red, and red straps criss-cross her amble bust. She wears a sexy, maroon, pleated mini-skirt with a black trimmed hemline. Two white belts criss-cross her waist, and she wears a collared and lapeled white lab coat over her entire outfit. She wears nude-colored pantyhose, and black knee-high boots adorn her feet. She is a little taller and larger than a typical college age woman, with an hourglass figure, a larger bust, wide hips, slightly oversized thighs, and very long, slender legs. However, what many people don't know is that she's actually an alien female from another dimension and planet and has taken on this appearance.
Oh, and she's the other pervert in this school, too, besides Aika.
"My name is Thouars, but you can call me Twoearle," she introduced herself as she held out her hand while having a lollipop in her mouth.
Yukio blushed a bit before answering, "S-Sure. N-Nice to meet you."
But before he could shake Twoearle's hand, her assistant, an automated busty robot maid with cat-like features, waist-length hair tied in a large ponytail and gray eyes, checked Yukio around by sniffing.
"W-What is it?" Yukio asked as the robot maid spoke to him and said….
"You're from the famous Kurozakura Family, one of the 2 families that carry out the Sparda Clan, and yet, you don't smell like soy sauce."
At first, Yukio was shocked that this maid analyzed him well, but soon sweatdropped at the mention of soy sauce.
"W-We normally don't…" Yukio tried to say as Twoearle laughed.
"You might think she's pretty weird, but she's actually my talented assistant," Twoearle spoke as the robot maid introduced herself.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Meimei."
"Nice to meet you," Yukio replied.
"And Twoearle over here is smart enough to be called a prodigy," Emile added.
"Really?" Yukio asked.
"Oh, you are giving me too much credit~!" Twoearle smiled, scratching her head with a blush before looking at Yukio extensively. "And for someone like you, you are pretty cute. If I had the chance to be your girlfriend, we would certainly do a lot of fun time together~!"
Yukio blushed at Twoearle giving him such a compliment, but he certainly wasn't ready to go to that stage yet.
"But in any event, Emil-"
GRAB!
Emile quickly went to Twoearle and pinched her cheeks hard!
"Twoearle, my name is Emile!" Emile quickly interrupted her with a dark smile. "Have you forgotten about that?"
"Jorry aboud dat, Emile (Sorry about that, Emile.)" Twoearle replied, still smiling despite being pinched.
Yukio didn't know why Emile did that to Twoearle, but he decided to drop it.
"And yet, I'm surprised," Twoearle said as she began healing her cheeks. "A cute guy like you who hasn't used his Device in over 5 years is going to duel with Stella Vermillion Gremory."
"You sure get your news fast," Emile smiled, putting a hand on his hip.
"Both the Director and LiZA told me," said Twoearle while emphasizing her breasts to Yukio, who blushed a bit.
"L-LiZA?" Yukio asked.
Twoearle showed them a large core behind them as she explained, "This autonomous computer that controls everything in Hagun Academy. She can also express herself and communicate with people."
"So this must be LiZA?" Yukio asked as particles from one screen spelled out the word…
"Exactly."
Twoearle then pulled out something from her cleavage and gave Yukio a piece of paper.
"In here is the details of your Device, along with the current moves you can do. I should explain before I give it to you. Devices are weapons that a Blazer are able to manifest from their soul. They can sometimes be referred to as Holy Swords, Demon Bows, Cursed Tools and Blessed Tools. And since you are going to be dueling against Stella Vermillion Gremory in a mock battle, your Devices will be in Illusionary Form, meaning that it'll only cause damage to their stamina instead of physical damage. Although a Device in its Illusionary Form cannot cause damage or kill, if enough overwhelming power is used, then it can put people in a comatose state.
"However, in a mock battle, they can also use magic or anything else that goes, but Sacred Gears are absolutely forbidden."
A screen then showed a small army of Hollows attacking a random city.
"The Devices and Sacred Gears are mostly effective against these monsters, the Hollows and the Demons. However, only humans which respond to variable Devices can use them. That's how we call them Blazers, and they all have a special trump card called Noble Arts. A Noble Art is the manifestation of their individual abilities and as such is powered by their magical powers and as such, there is no one noble art that is similar to one another even if their abilities are alike as it matches their own user's personal tastes. It has been proven that a Blazer to have more than more Noble Art due to either their magic capacity and/or magic control. It all depends on either one of the 4 categories: Body Enhancement, Nature Interference, Conceptual Manipulation or Causation Manipulation.
"For Stella Vermillion Gremory, one of her magic abilities is that of a Dragon, and since she's from the Gremory Clan, one of her natural abilities is the famous Power of Destruction, a power that can eliminate ANYTHING that stands in its way. And with those two, unsurprisingly, she's strong. The Blazer's soul determines what weapon they will use in combat. And as much as being a Mage-Knight is good, there's only one ultimate goal in mind…"
Twoearle turned to them and simply said, "To protect humanity."
Yukio thought to himself as he remembered his time with the Hero Clan, 'To protect humanity, huh?'
"Yukio, when you summon your Device, you should know that you have a big responsibility on your shoulders. Are you ready?" Twoearle asked.
Yukio then had a very important memory in mind: The memory of his stepbrother and his best friend. He then looked at his right arm and finally looking at Twoearle and answered…
"Yes."
"Good response, my darling," Twoearle smiled.
'To think that I would be using my Device and swords again after 5 years of hiding…' Yukio thought to himself.
** At a Rough Area **
"I got an area for you to practice," Twoearle told them. "Change into your P.E. clothes and make sure to give plenty of space."
"It's been a while since I've been in a field to practice like this," Yukio said as he's already in his P.E. clothing, but then he saw Emile wearing the same thing, but for some reason, something's off, and Emile knows it.
"What are you staring at?" Emile asked, turning away from him with a blush.
"Wha? We're both guys," Yukio answered, confused. "Why are you getting all embarrassed?"
"Just summon your Device already," Emile countered.
"OK, OK! Geez, someone's impatient," Yukio said as he began to step away and get plenty of room as he remembers what Twoearle said to him.
'Let your body do the talking and strongly will it to become a weapon.'
"Come on, let's give it a try," Emile told Yukio from a good length away.
'Well, there's no turning back,' Yukio thought to himself as he willed himself and chanted…
"Come to me, Ryuuzetsu!"
His Device appears into the form of a Japanese Nodachi made of raven-black steel.
"Good job, Darling!" Twoearle smiled from one of the screens. "That's your Device: Ryuuzetsu or "Dragon Tongue Iron"."
Then Meimei bumped into Twoearle, with their breasts bouncing between each other as she added, "Your attacks are based on Ice and Lightning."
Yukio looked at his sword and thought to himself, 'To think that I would see this again in 5 years…'
"I knew your Device would be cool!" Emile cheered. "All right. Me, too!"
"You have one, too?" Yukio asked.
"Yes," Emile nodded. "Let's just say that….some stuff happened. Now then…
"All of you, come to my side! Arms Shroud!"
Yukio's eyes widened at Emile's very unique Device, which comes in the form of multiple… "wings"… around him. It's as if they're in the form of a Dragon's Wings.
"W-What's that?!" Yukio asked in awe.
"This is the Arms Shroud," Emile answered. "This is a super-rare innocence type as it is a bit special."
"Innocence type?" Yukio asked. "Is that even allowed?"
Emile ignored Yukio's second question as he said, "In any event, the duel is in 2 days. We don't have much time. So we're going to have a trial by fire."
Suddenly, Emile's wings took in the form of a few cannons, surprising Yukio a bit.
"Fire!" Emile shouted as the cannons fired magic lasers towards Yukio at fast speed! Yukio had to defend himself quickly by crossing out his arms in an X formation. In the process, he used his ice magic to form a wall of ice, and just in time as well as the lasers hit the wall, but the wall itself still stood.
"That's pretty impressive, Yukio!" Emile smiled. "You've managed to use enough ice magic to put up a strong barrier!"
"I wasn't even…" Yukio started but had to scream at Emile. "Now hold on! Who just attacks a person out of nowhere like that?!"
"You do realize that the Crimson Princess won't go easy on you!" Emile told Yukio as he fired the cannons again.
"Y-You moron!" Yukio shouted as he quickly disappeared from where he once stood as the lasers zoom past.
Emile was surprised and looked to the left to see Yukio collided with the wall in a millisecond.
"Awesome! That was awesome, Yukio!" Emile smiled as he walked to Yukio, who was dazed and surprised. "See, you can win! There's no question!"
"Y-Yeah, right!" Yukio smiled awkwardly.
"I have a plan in mind."
"A-A plan?"
Emile smiled widely as he said, "As such…"
More cannons formed around Yukio.
"I'm going to ride you hard!"
"T-That sounds so wrong!" Yukio yelled as the cannons fired, forcing Yukio to be on the move again.
(2 hours later)
** At the Boys' Dormitory **
"Good job hanging in there, Yukio," Emile said to him as they walked towards the building. "Now you'll definitely win the duel in 2 days time at this rate."
"Yeah…" Yukio replied, obviously tired from the practice that happened earlier today. "In fact, I need to get my appropriate room number this time, if I'm even allowed. See you!"
"Yeah, see you," Emile waved as he sees Yukio heading to the Director's office.
** At the Director's Office **
Kurono was finishing an important phone call with someone.
"I see."
[…]
"So the Demons are on the move again?"
[…]
"Very well. Thanks for all of the information. Talk to you later."
As she hung up, what Emile said earlier was indeed true.
'To think that Yukio would still be this traumatized after so many years…' she thought to herself before the door opened to reveal Yukio.
"Ah. I see that you've managed to survive Emile's crash course," Kurono smiled.
"Yeah, and he even forced me to use some of my powers," Yukio replied with one of his eyebrows twitching. "In fact, that Arms Shroud thing that Emile has…Is that even allowed in battles?"
"Believe it or not, yes," Kurono answered. "Now, while his…. 'Device'….might be…broken in a way, I only told him that the cannons are the only things that are not allowed should he battle in the Festival, but everything else is allowed, including magic. However, believe it or not, his Noble Art….is something that not even the strongest Blazer can beat…"
"His Noble Art?" Yukio asked.
"Well, that's another story for another day," Kurono said as she shrugged it off. "Now then, to find out who your roommate is…"
** At the Boys' Dormitory **
(1 hour later)
"It got pretty late," Yukio said as it was now nighttime as he finally reaches his room and used his profile pad to gain access.
As he opened the door, he could see that the lights on…
….and unfortunately, he was going to have yet, another sickening sense of Déjà vu as he saw a figure with long silver hair, but was now in a towel. It was apparent that he has finished taking a bath. He soon realized that it was…
"Emile?"
"Yukio…."
It was then that Emile got extremely embarrassed and yelled, "Get out of here!"
And with great strength, he threw a large bag of luggage that belonged to Yukio at Yukio…
BAM!
…and knocked him out unconscious!
First, he ran into Stella, dressed in lingerie and got slapped.
Second, he ran into Mio who finished using the restroom, and got beaten up...kinda.
Now, he ran into Emile, finished with his bath, and got hit with his own luggage!
Man, Yukio really has terrible luck with people, does he?
(1 hour later)
Yukio, having bandages all over his face, soon wakes up.
"Oh, are you up, Yukio?" asked a familiar voice.
"E-Emile…" Yukio began to speak.
Panicked, Yukio tried to get up….
BAM!
…and hits each other on the forehead!
"Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow…." they both moaned at the same time. "What was that for?!"
"It's your fault for getting up so suddenly," said Emile with an embarrassed blush.
"A-Are you stupid?!" Yukio countered back with a small blush of his own. "I just panicked because I was resting my head on another guy's lap. What's wrong with you?!"
Emile just stared at Yukio and then got cross.
"This is all your fault to begin with," said Emile as he stood up. "You just waltzed right in. That's why this happened."
"'Waltzed right in,' you say?" Yukio asked in confusion, and yet, knew that all too well. "This is my room, you know? Hey, wait a minute. Why are you in my room, anyway?"
"I didn't say…" Emile said, and then he smiled as he told him that…
"We're roommates. The Director accepted my request."
"Huh?" Yukio asked. "What? WHAT?! Damn it, Auntie!"
"There you have it," Emile said as he approached Yukio. "Now take off your uniform. I'll sew your badge back on."
(5 minutes later)
As Emile was sewing Yukio's uniform, Yukio asked, "Are you okay? I can do that myself."
"You have an important duel in 2 days," Emile answered as he tried hard to sew. "Just let me handle it-"
BING!
"Ow!" Emile moaned as the needle hit his thumb, bleeding a bit.
Yukio, for some reason, widened his eyes as the memory between him and the girl 10 years ago flashed into his mind.
"We need to take care of that now," Yukio responded as he sucked the blood off of Emile's thumb, instead of…oh, maybe…find a Band-Aid, or Triple Antibiotic Ointment for that matter?!
Emile was surprised by this and blushed.
"Y-Yukio…You can't just…"
Yukio took no notice and sees that he has stopped the bleeding.
"Are you okay?" Yukio asked Emile.
"Y-Yeah…" Emile answered before Yukio placed a Band-Aid on his finger, which he should've done that in the first place. "It wasn't that big of a deal…"
"It's just how I am," Yukio said as he closed the First Aid Kit. "Truth be told, I got mixed up in an attack with a Hollow and some Demons a long time ago. Now, when I see someone get hurt, I just have to do something."
"Yukio…Thank you," Emile smiled.
(2 days later)
** At the Fourth Training Field **
The two combatants, Stella and Yukio, were standing a few feet apart. The field was fully packed with students and staff, and that included Rias Gremory, Mio Naruse Gremory and their groups, and in the booth were Emile, Twoearle, the Director, along with a small woman in a kimono, and the judges are the Student Council President, Souna Shitori, and the Vice-President, Tsubaki Shinra.
Tsubaki is a beautiful E-cupped girl with long straight black hair that extends all the way down to her knees with split bangs and brown eyes. In addition to the female uniform, she wears blue, semi-rimmed glasses with square lenses. She also has a serious personality.
Back at the battlefield, Stella asked Yukio…
"Are you ready?"
"As much as I'll ever be," Yukio responded.
"In that case, have at you," Stella said as a tornado of fire formed around her. "Serve me, Lævateinn!"
Stella then grabbed a sword-like rock and slammed it into the ground. The rock and flame burst apart as a golden broadsword manifested in her hands from inside the rock.
Then, it was Yukio's turn.
"Come to me, Ryuuzetsu!"
A large ice crystal shot up from the ground in front of him. He then manifested a pale blue sphere in his right hand and slammed it onto the side crystal and it shattered as he pulled his Japanese Nodachi sword, and it appeared to be no less than 120 cm long.
[The duel between the Crimson Flaming Princess, Stella Vermillion Gremory, and the new student, Yukio Kurozakura, shall begin] Souna announced.
The screen then says "READY!", and then began the 10-second countdown. Everyone was waiting with great anticipation.
"Now, Yukio Kurozakura," Stella declared as she pointed her sword at him. "Show me how strong you really are!"
LET'S GO AHEAD!
To Be Continued…
ED Song: Who Is It? Ice Cap Zone Remix by Michael Jackson
On the next episode….
The mock battle between Yukio Kurozakura and Stella Vermillion Gremory-Phenex is going to get underway as everyone have gathered to watch, but since that Yukio is on the verge of being kicked out of school, Stella decided to give him a handicap that she will not fight him seriously.
During the duel, Yukio demonstrates powerful fighting skills and memorizes Stella's technique, all while watching under the eyes of Rias, Mio, and Souna, which he uses against her through his technique Blade Steal. However, in the midst of the battle, Yukio accidentally falls over and grabs Stella's breasts, angering her and attacking him mercilessly.
After that, Emile puts his plan into action as Yukio begins to reminisce the feeling of having a good battle and deals a heavy shot at Stella, but to his surprise, it made no effect on her as she begins to fight back, using her magic ability not only as a Gremory…but also as a Phenex.
Unfortunately, those 5 years of hiding were beginning to catch up to Yukio as he was from winning to the verge of losing, and to make matters worse, his Hollow was trying to take control of his body, giving Stella the opportunity to finish him off. But as she was about to deal the final blow, Yukio's memory of what happened 5 years ago forces him to reveal himself as a former member of the Hero Clan.
As a result, this forces Stella to fight seriously, but bad luck came to Yukio as he's unable to control his powers and collapses. The match was then going to be decided with the judges; more specifically, the Student Council President.
And later, Yukio was upset that he still couldn't control some of his powers when he stumbles onto a young girl on the verge of being raped by a group of Demons. As he defeats the Demons, he soon finds out that the young girl is actually a Fallen Angel, who's ready to kill him, but the Devils have got something to say about that.
What was going to happen to the match? What's the fate of Yukio Kurozakura? Will his identity finally be revealed to the world?
All of those questions and a whole lot more will be answered on the next episode of The Rebirth Legacy of the Night Raid of DxD!
And we're done! That was truly a tough Prologue for me, but I'm glad that I finished! Now there's a lot of endnotes I need to make, so let's get these References out of the way….

Now then, you may notice that are some differences here. Particularly in Chivalry of a Failed Knight. Instead of Ikki, we have an OC that's actually created by Gaevontracey24, and if you know me, I always have a big harem involved, but this time, if you haven't noticed yet, I have an Alpha girl in the harem, and that girl is…..
Emilia Gudenberg from the Hundred series!
Now, the Arms Shroud is almost like the Armiger from the Final Fantasy series, which is also, by the way, Emile's Noble Art in this story, but don't worry. Should Emile/Emilia participate in the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival, she will have another sword with her. Which one?
I already know, but I'm not going to tell you yet. Along with one more surprise for her.
Also, since the OC is from the Sparda Clan, and is a Shinigami from the Bleach series, I got BIG plans for him, so be on the lookout for that.
Now, about Stella….She's going to be in the harem as well, along with Mio and many more, but it's going to be a little more slower than in the actual series, because we also got DxD and Testament of Sister New Devil involved as well. And I apologize to Gaevontracey24 for not having Stella as his roommate, as you can already see why!
And now, an important matter, and I believe you all know what's coming: Issei Hyoudou. As you know, from before, I've been…bashing him, to say the least, and many knows why. Yes, I get that he gets more mature over time, and I'm beginning to have a little bit of respect for him, but I still can't get over the fact that his perverted actions, his weak emotions, and his ways of powering up are (While unique…in a way) just plain stupid and dumb! Yes, it's an Ecchi Manga, but I mean, come on!
Look at Masou Gakuen HxH, Testament of Sister New Devil, and even Maou Gakuen Rebel! Their protagonists are powering up the females through sexual ways, but most of the time, it's either to save their lives, or bond more closely to each other, or heal others, which by the way, I may be planning on that, thanks to Maria's Master-Servant Contract.
In fact, most of the time, reviews, social media, other fanfics, and of course yours truly, sees Issei as…the one guy who we hate as a protagonist.
Unless…you actually put him in a H-manga, hence why I've found the Eiken manga series, and when I compared Densuke to Issei, I knew that Issei would be the right guy for the series, and that's why I've decided that if I ever want to put Issei in my stories from now on, his harem is going to be from the Eiken club! Guaranteed members are:
Chiharu Shinonome
Yuriko Shinonome
Kirika Misono
Komoe Harumachi
Grace Lin
Ayana Kakinozaka (See Me After Class!)
Touko Sakuramachi (Succubus Stayed Life)
Kanna Akizono (Succubus Stayed Life)
Tsukino Yomisawa (Succubus Stayed Life)
Not included are:
Kyoko Morooka (Very Small)
The Teacher (Can't they give her a name)
Teddy (Even smaller than Kyoko!)
That being said, Issei will appear every now and then, but the events will all be off-screen unless said otherwise. If you want to see Issei with the Eiken Club, I can write an entirely different story about him, but be warned that he will be cross-dressed…a lot!
Now to the final part: Paying respects to 3 very important people.
First is Alex Trebek, the host of Jeopardy!
Alex Trebek had announced in a video on March 6, 2019, that he had received a diagnosis of Stage 4 pancreatic cancer that week. He said that like many others with the disease, he had no symptoms until it had spread throughout his body. He delivered the news from the show's set, wearing, as usual, a bandbox-fresh suit and tie as he spoke straight to the camera without sentiment or histrionics.
Mr. Trebek hosted more than 8,000 episodes of "Jeopardy!" In 2014, he claimed the record for hosting the most episodes of a single game show, surpassing the record set by Bob Barker, who had led "The Price is Right" for 6,828 episodes between 1972 and 2007.
Mr. Trebek spurned being called the star of "Jeopardy!" He wanted viewers to focus on the material. The show derived its drama not from any antics of his, but from the contestants and the possibility that at any moment fortunes could shift, with an apparent loser becoming an instant winner, and vice versa.
"You have to set your ego aside," Mr. Trebek said of his role. "If you want to be a good host, you have to figure out a way to get the contestants to — as in the old television commercial about the military — 'be all you can be.' Because if they do well, the show does well. And if the show does well, by association, I do well."
The show did well. "Jeopardy!" has won more Emmy Awards — 35 — than any other game show. They included the 2017 Daytime Emmy for outstanding game show — remarkable for a program on the air for more than three decades. Mr. Trebek himself won six Emmys for outstanding game show host and an additional lifetime achievement award.
"Jeopardy!" won a 2011 Peabody Award, the first time in more than 50 years that a television quiz show had been so recognized. The citation said the award, given in 2012, was "for decades of consistently encouraging, celebrating and rewarding knowledge." It said that "Jeopardy!" was "a model of integrity and decorum."
The second one is longtime CNN host and radio legend, Larry King.
Larry King hosted "Larry King Live" on CNN for over 25 years, interviewing presidential candidates, celebrities, athletes, movie stars and everyday people. He retired in 2010 after taping more than 6,000 episodes of the show. For 63 years and across the platforms of radio, television and digital media, Larry's many thousands of interviews, awards, and global acclaim stand as a testament to his unique and lasting talent as a broadcaster.
And the third and final one is none other than my own Grandmother, who has passed away on Jan. 29th. She was 90 and she helped me graduate high school, so I wouldn't be here without her. God Bless You, Grandma. You will no longer suffer any pain. Rest In Peace.
With all of that said, read and review, and no flames! Flames will be ignored, just like the virus!
