Years gone by
A few years had gone by since the events of Satanael, and Augusta, among other things, and Akira's group had all aged. Each one had matured more. Having moved from the Underworld, Akira had taken over his Mother's previous position as the town ruler, which he took with pride.
Akira's height and appearance had changed. Having a slender frame with muscles, his hair still was around base neck level, with it becoming more spiked at the front, the black in his hair remained across the two bangs that framed his face. Having gained quite the gentle yet masculine look to his face, the young man resembled his Uncle as a teen, though still held some facial features from his Father.
Stretching in his large bed, that was big enough to accommodate for him, and many of the girls that slept in his room, even if they had rooms of their own, they chose to simply sleep together with him and most, if not all, chose to sleep naked.
Though his loyal partner, and Sacred Gear Okami as Lavinia had named him so, had his own room, equipped with a luxury bed all his own. Having everything he needed. He even ended up sharing the room with Absolute Demise, who had become very close with Okami over the years.
Right now however, Akira was surrounded by different girls.
His peerage members, Rias and Akeno as well.
Lavinia held onto his head, her large breasts snuggling against his face, with the same of Rias on the other side. Akeno and Kuroka clung to his arms, and kept them between their breasts. Valerie and Ravel laid their heads on his chest, Koneko and Elmenhilde had their heads on his stomach area, all of them sharing their glorious forms to his eyes.
Vali would sleep over at some points, though she usually came to train, or for some other different kind of fun.
Iryuka had been thinking about moving to the human world as well, since they were still in their engagement, with that becoming something that would have to be dealt with soon enough with Akira being on the cusp of turning eighteen, being seventeen currently.
He had also kept in regular contact with Rossweisse, who wasn't having the best time with Odin. She liked the job, but it was very hard work, with how Odin was, according to Rossweisse. Akira had met him on different occasions, and could understand how hard it was for Rossweisse.
Lavinia rubbed her eyes, and murmured "Morning." as she leaned towards him, allowing her lips and his own to come together naturally. Since they were younger, their relationship, like every other, progressed quite a bit.
"Good morning Lavinia-chan."
Lavinia smiles at her King and lover, before holding him to her chest tightly.
"Aah, Aki-kun, when you're between my boobs, I can't help but think it is the best place for you to be~ I'm glad you are~"
Lavinia excitedly hugged her King tightly into her breasts and casually rubbed the back of his head in a soothing manner.
Soon the others began getting up, with Rias seeing Lavinia in such a comfortable position, hugging, then kissing the top of Akira's head, so she points at Lavinia.
"Lavinia, you are going for an early move today by seducing Akira?"
"Ara, she does have bigger boobs that you Rias~ Worried?"
Akeno sang out, Rias became deflated as Kuroka snickered.
"Nyahaha, the drama is coming, love a good dose of drama haha~"
Rias looks towards Kuroka who lapped up all of the 'fights' that happened in the morning. Though they usually ended up pretty peacefully, and the girls getting along generally very well.
Koneko with her neko parts out, let out a cute purring sound, before scaling up Akira's body, and laid on his chest. Her small body made it so that even if she was on top of him like she was, it didn't bother him in the slightest.
"Nyan, good morning Senpai."
Akira smiled down at her, and stroked her ear, making her let out a cute meowing sound.
"Good morning Koneko-chan~"
Elmenhilde sticks out her bottom lip, before doing the same as Koneko, but placed her head against his neck.
"Akira-senpai, here...I want to bite here, can I?"
When hearing that, Valerie became excited, and silently moved to the other side of his neck.
"M-Me too...I want to also suck on you, from here."
Valerie's voice was innocent, and cute at the same time as slightly daring, something Akira smiled at.
"Okay, go for it."
Elmenhilde and Valerie immediately took their chances, and bit into his neck. The tasty blood filled their minds, their cheeks adorning redness, and their bodies quivering with each passing second, moaning around his neck.
As they did, Akira's hands ran down their backs, making them smile into their love biting they were doing.
"Ara ara, look at the Vamp girls go, they have the right idea~"
Akeno giggled out, as she claims his lips for herself, allowing her tongue and his own to meet one another's in a fiery kiss. Akeno's teasing eyes go back towards Rias who looks dissatisfied with what was going on.
"A-Akeno, you're doing that to tease me."
Akeno didn't deny it, though she also liked the idea of being able to be with Akira in a manner like this.
Rias puffs out her cheeks cutely.
But then Ravel shakes her head.
"It wont do, it isn't in the schedule everyone. Please go back to the schedule..." As she spoke, Kuroka came behind her, and hugged her tightly. "Kuroka-sama!"
"Ararara, what's wrong Ravel-chan? I heard before that you wish for Aki-chan to play with these breasts of yours?"
As she said it, Ravel gave an embarrassed look to Kuroka, who in turn gave a supportive look right back, wishing for Ravel to have a good time as well.
"I-I said no such thing in front of you!"
"Aah, in front of me? So you have said it?"
"N-No! And if I did, that would be between Akira-sama and myself!"
Ravel huffed out, as Rias looked over them all, before she moved closer, attempting to kiss Akira on the lips, when the door opened.
All the girls leapt up, to see Vali walking into the room.
Casually, she strolled over to Akira, and peeled the girls off of his body.
"Training, lets go."
Though she said it as if she was acting normal, she immediately pulled Akira up, and away from the others, before laying her own lips onto his own, her hand resting comfortably on Akira's butt.
"Morning Vali-chan, I should probably get dressed before any training begins."
Her eyes look down at his naked form, before her cheeks turn slightly red, giving a strong shake of her head.
"No, that's fine. You don't need clothes."
She then walked off together with Akira, as the girls yelled complaints, besides Lavinia who giggled "Awww, Va-chan is lying again and wishes to have some fun with Aki-kun, but is too shy to admit it in front of others~" with Lavinia being right on the money.
A short time later, Kuroka sat in the dining room, a good view of the kitchen from her position as she thought about what she could have for breakfast, she wasn't the best of cooks, which was a problem as she was thinking of some foods she'd love right now, but couldn't make.
She saw Okami strolling around in his puppy form. He usually assumed that form around the house, she thought it probably was to add to the cuteness factor that everyone seemed to love from him. When he was fighting, he tended to assume his larger form.
"Okami-kun...what is he up to? That dog, I love him~ Shirone seems to have that cat dog relationship with him, but we get along haha~"
Kuroka watched with intrigue as Lavinia came into the kitchen, and Okami pushed his bowl towards her, wagging his puppy tail cutely for Lavinia to see, looking up towards her with bright big beautifully enchanting eyes.
"Awww, puppy. Hasn't anyone given you food?" Okami shakes his head. "That's okay, I'll give you extra for being such a sweetie~"
Lavinia placed some food for Okami as he barked happily, stroked his head, then left to get some stuff done.
Kuroka watched curiously as Okami finished off his food.
But then she saw Valerie come into the kitchen, and grabbed some food for herself, when Kuroka saw Okami walk towards Valerie, showing off his adorable looks towards her.
Kuroka furrowed her brows as Valerie bent down.
"Are you okay Okami-kun?" Okami turned his head towards his treats, then towards Valerie, wagging his tail in a cute manner. "Ooh I see, you want a treat?" Okami barks happily. "Here you go you adorable puppy~ Good boy~ Now I have to go, being a school nurse, so fun~ See you later Okami-kun~"
Kuroka witnesses Okami being given a treat by Valerie as she strokes his head, before she went off to do her own business.
Kuroka looks down at herself, then towards Okami.
"Geez, so all I'd have to do is act cute, and others would cook and give me food? Hmm, maybe I'll give it a try, I would love some bacon, but I suck at cooking it well, but others in the house cook well so maybe…now to find the perfect target..." As she thought it, she saw Ravel go into the kitchen. "Perfect~"
Kuroka skips into the kitchen.
She then places her hands in front of her, allowing her tails to swish around, as her eyes seemingly became bigger, brighter, and somehow gained sparkles around said eyes.
Ravel glances towards Kuroka once noticing her presence, seeing her acting rather cute.
"Kuroka-sama, is something wrong?"
Shuffling on her feet, Kuroka's eyes went towards Ravel's own.
"...Ravel-chan, I don't know how to cook bacon...and I'm...really hungry, and I really would like bacon this morning...y-you wouldn't do it for me, would you? Please? I will repay you..."
Ravel furrowed her brows, looking over Kuroka, seeing her cutest expressions, and bit her lower lip at how adorable she actually looked.
"W-Well, I do have a few minutes...okay, I'll cook it for you."
"Thanks Ravel-chan, you're the best~"
As she said it, Okami came walking by, raising his paw, so she lowered her hand and high fived one another, before Kuroka skipped off.
Okami split off from them, and went to find his master to see what he was doing.
When he found Akira, who was now fully clothed, he saw that he was engaging in a conversation with Rias, as Koneko rests on his lap, a place she had claimed for her own, though Okami liked also being with his master, so as he strolled into the room, he heard some of the conversation.
"Ise-chan would be an interesting peerage member. So, how would you approach her?"
"Well, I don't know fully yet, but, there is the fact that she is a human, without any special background as far as I know. It could be difficult approaching and asking."
"That is true, perhaps just approach her as a friend first, getting to know her before going into the supernatural. I think that would be best."
As he said it, Okami came along, so Akira bent down, and stroked behind his ear, as he continued on with Rias.
"So, have we confirmed it is a Longinus?"
Rias asks, Akira nods.
"Yeah, Koneko-chan here and Kuroka-san also confirmed it for me. I had a suspicion, but they with their better senses were able to tell. Without awakening it, it would be difficult determining what kind of Longinus that it is. But whatever it is, being a Longinus class Sacred Gear, it is going to be strong. However, there is the fact that as you said, she is a girl without a special background, involving her in the supernatural world might not be what she'd want."
Rias placed a finger to her cheek, and went into deep thought, as Akira called "Good morning boy, did you sleep well~?" changing his tone from serious to sweet as he addressed his Longinus, who barked up at him excitedly.
"I can see what you mean...well, nothing has to be decided right now."
"That's true. Also, I should make you aware, Azazel contacted me a few minutes ago, saying he's going to be sending some Fallen Angels into the town for some duties that shouldn't interfere with our lives, he mentioned about some recruitments for the Grigori. I said it would be fine as long as they don't interfere with our day to day activities."
"So basically we don't approach them, they wont approach us kind of deal?"
Akira nods, and continues.
"Yes, but on the off chance they do cause problems for either us or the humans in this town, we can take matters into our own hands and do what we think is the most appropriate. Azazel said it shouldn't happen, but he is being precautious in case something should happen, probably remembering the time with Satanael. He also is aware of the Longinus within Ise-chan, but has told the Fallen Angels to stay away from her as he would leave her to us, but said that if we need assistance, he would happily lend it."
Rias nods, folding her arms.
"It's a wise decision, I'm sure Azazel wouldn't want any worries with this girl either."
Rias nods, then glances at the time.
Seeing the time, she clicks her tongue.
"Damn, I've got some stuff to do. See you later."
Rias bends down and lightly kisses him, who returns the kiss right back.
"See you later~"
Rias winked, and walked out of the room, as Koneko looked up towards him.
"...Senpai, would you want her to have the pervert in her peerage?"
"Would you want her in mine?" Koneko shakes her head. "I see. Well, Ise-chan is cute, and I'm sure she'd fit well with my peerage as well, but being with Rias-chan would give her great ambitions as well. Either way, what do you think Koneko-chan? Should she be introduced to the supernatural?"
"I don't know, would you Senpai? If you didn't know about the supernatural?"
"Tough question, to live a life of ignorant bliss to the world around you, or possibly make your life dangerous by entering into such a harsh world? Hmm, to tell you the truth, I probably still would, otherwise I never would have met you or the other girls, you know?"
Koneko nods her head, leaning up, and gently kissing him on the mouth, which he did right back.
"...I'm glad, because I really care for Senpai. Though Senpai, if this girl becomes a Devil, please make sure she's monitored. I heard that she wants to do ecchi stuff to you Senpai, and went into graphic detail, it was something that concerns me, since she's the mass of sexual desire."
Akira laughed loudly, as Okami barks happily.
"Hahaha, I see~ Well, I'll make sure she's monitored Koneko-chan. Though, can you do me a favour?"
Koneko tilts her head, then nods.
"Yes, what is it?"
"There's some stuff being delivered to the club later on, I've got some stuff I've got to do before coming to the club. The usual Stray Devils that have been causing trouble, going to go and deal with them soon, got the information about twenty minutes ago. I wouldn't ask, but Ravel-chan's dealing with some important paper work for the Underworld as well."
"Yes, I don't mind Senpai."
"Thanks Koneko-chan, I knew I'd be able to count on you~"
He lightly kisses her forehead, which makes her blush, before getting ready for the school day.
As that was going on, within the abandoned Church in Kuoh, there was a young woman with long black hair, violet eyes wearing an outfit predominately made of leather, and showed her cleavage, among other parts such as her legs.
Her name was Raynare, and right now, she looked tired.
"Ooh shit...why did it have to be here…?"
Wallowing in distress, Raynare kept shifting her eyes left to right, looking at the smashed up area.
When she did, a new woman with long blue hair, and a large brown trench coat like top, and matching mini skirt, her name being Kalawarner, her eyes turned towards Raynare who was gazing at the floor.
"Raynare, what's going on?"
Raynare's eyes shifted up, and gazed towards Kalawarner.
"We're in this town, and...shit, I don't know what we're going to do!"
"Calm down."
"You calm down!" Kalawarner jumped back as Raynare exhaled slowly. "I'm sorry Kalawarner, I've got a lot on my plate right now. One being this...ooh I can't do it...I can't do it Kalawarner, this town is in the hands of the Wolf...the Wolf that will kill us if we do anything remarkably stupid! Which means we can kiss our lives goodbye!"
"Well, we might not do something stupid."
At her argument, Raynare gave a baffled look, as Kalawarner shrugged her shoulders.
"You and I wont, but think about Mittelt, and Dohnaseek! You think they wont they'll not do stupid stuff? Dohnaseek's someone we have to watch out for, and we can't be sure what he's got up his sleeves, and as for Mittelt...ooh, Mittelt, she'll do something, I can guarantee it."
Kalawarner furrows her brows.
"Mittelt probably wont, she's not going to blow our cover now, but you are right about Dohnaseek, he can be an unknown for our group. What we have to do is be quick and precise about this. If we do anything too suspicious, then we're done. But we can do this Raynare, it is only the Wolf...alright, okay, him and the Ice Princess...the Neko...damn, he's got a strong peerage..."
"Not helping!"
Kalawarner sighed.
"Point is, we haven't done anything suspicious yet. There's no reason why he would try and confront us."
Raynare threw her head back.
"If we bring that girl Asia here, the Wolf is going to shut us down faster than we can say...ooh boy." Raynare slumped over, and stared at the ground. "Kalawarner, this isn't going to impress Azazel-sama, and if we bring Asia here now...but, if we delay it, and someone else gets to the damn nun first, then it means we wont get that sweet Sacred Gear...and then we'll be left in the dust, you get what I'm saying?"
"Yes, I get what you're saying. So for now, lets keep the lowest of profiles. We can watch from a distance, and when Asia gets here, we bring her to this Church, extract the Sacred Gear, and then high tail it out of here before anyone's the wiser. Certainly before the Wolf catches onto our plans."
"I hope so Kalawarner, all I want is to make Azazel-sama see our greatness."
Kalawarner inclines her neck in agreement.
Whatever they were going to do, they had to act quickly.
When Akira came into his classroom that day together with Lavinia who happened to teach the class.
He didn't take Okami with him to school, since pets usually weren't allowed, though Akira had snuck him in at some points when Okami didn't wish to be left without Akira, though right now Okami was back at home together with Absolute Demise, having their own kind of interactions, whatever they maybe.
As they walked in, there was a girl that had long brown hair, her eyes matching her hair, and a bust sized that could even rival someone like Kuroka.
Her eyes glued themselves towards Akira upon entering into the classroom.
The young woman locked eyes with him, so he gave a gentle smile right back.
"Aah, my Bishounen~"
The girl sang out, as Akira walked around the class towards his seat, which happened to be right next to her own.
She felt like she hit the jackpot when she learned of that fact at the beginning of the school year.
When he came closer, her eyes zoned in on different body parts that she liked, and as she did, her mind drifted onto some lewd thoughts about him.
"Aah, so good for me~ Perfect mixture of such a Bishounen. Those rough rugged manly looks coupled together with a gentle face as well as a smile that melts the hearts of girls everywhere~ Aah, if I could get my chance to go and be closer, it would be such a dream come too~"
Isane thought about it, and as she did, she rocked her body back and forth, unable to control the urges within her that wished to explore a deeper relationship between Akira and herself more and more.
Akira glanced at her, and gave an amused smile.
"Good morning Ise-chan, what are you thinking about right now?"
"Waaah!" Ise or rather her full name of Isane almost fell out of her chair, as Akira lightly laughed. "N-Nothing! Nothing at all!"
"You sure?"
"Yep, nothing to worry about!"
She laughed it off, while Akira raised a brow.
"Aah, I see. Well, I'm glad to see you're doing well~"
Isane melted at his masculine voice.
"Y-Yeah, hahaha...d-doing well...G-Good, that's good~"
"It is~"
Isane nods, and clutches her hands together.
"Ask him out, ask him out, ask him out..." Isane chanted within her head. "Do it Isane, ask him out! The worst he can do is say no! Come on, ask him out...ooh damn, I can do it...do it...do it Isane...do it...ask him out…!"
Isane yelled within her mind.
However, she simply couldn't get the words out.
Staring at Akira, the young man himself tilted his head.
"Something on my face?"
"Not yet..."
"Hmm?"
"I-I mean, no, not at all!"
She recovered the best that she could do.
Akira stared at her for a few more moments, then saw class was beginning.
"Well, have a good day~"
"Yeah, you too~"
Isane sang out, then mentally berated herself as she didn't get to do what she wished to do.
Akira glanced at her once more, seeing that she was staring at him, but didn't say anything, so he leaned back, and got ready for the school day.
During the running of the class, Isane's eyes couldn't keep off Akira, who in turn glanced at her with a genuine nice smile, who happily swayed.
He then looked at Lavinia who acted cute as she fumbled around for different things that she needed. While not exactly klutzy per-say, she did have a tendency to misplace things, and occasionally drop things on the floor, though Lavinia mostly did the last part when she was in the eye shot of Akira only, so he could look at her.
When the time for lunch came, Akira's peerage gathered on the rooftop of the school, and sat together eating their lunches, while Akira noticed Valerie in her uniform, seeing that she was wearing a standard nurses uniform, but with the skirt being shorter than usual, and her eyes showing a cute look to them.
Even Okami had joined them, and was being fed by Kuroka who stroked the top of his head lovingly.
Akira however, while eating, was currently on the phone.
"Hey Uncle, it's been a few days, how have you been?"
[Just the usual, nothing too exciting besides a Rating Game I had going on.]
"I watched it, you did fantastic Uncle~ It was so cool to see you fighting, I can't wait for our own Rating Game~"
Akira's tone was playful, something he and his Uncle had built on over the years. Though they were Uncle and nephew, because of circumstances, they became very close, to the point that Akira could say that Diehauser was a second Father to him. While never replacing his human Father, Diehauser had done a lot for Akira, and they both helped one another out during a very tough period in their lives.
[Neither can I my boy. I can't wait to see the true power you've got.] Diehauser said with a small cheerful laugh, matching Akira's own. [However, I thought I should let you know, there's been some disappearances lately.]
"Disappearances?"
Akira asked, with the others looking on curiously.
[Yes, it seems some Low Class Devils have disappeared while in the human world. Usually, this would be put up to simply those disappearances becoming Stray Devils. However, the Devils that the Low Class Devils knew, each thought they were rather happy in their roles. Strange, don't you think?]
Akira did think it was strange, he was curious as to why someone would target Low Class Devils.
"Indeed, I guess the Underworld are on it?"
[Yes, the Underworld are looking into it. Since you're in the human world, I wanted to warn you in case. Will you let Rias-san and Sona-sans groups know?]
"Of course. Thanks for letting us know Uncle."
[No problem. Speak later. Goodbye.]
"Yes, speak later. Goodbye~"
Akira and Diehauser mutually put the phone down, then he explained what Diehauser had said to him.
Once finished, the others looked on curiously.
"Someone is targeting Devils in the human world? So far, only Low Class...still, it could be a cause for concern Aki-kun."
Lavinia expressed, Akira nods.
"I'm sure we'd all be okay on our own since each of us can handle ourselves very well in fights, but to be on the safe side, lets go in at least groups of two for the time being."
Ravel nods.
"That's a very good precaution. Akira-sama, I'll alert Rias-sama and Sona-sama."
Akira smiled, and kissed Ravel's cheek, making her gush.
"Thank you Ravel-chan, I don't know what I'd do without you~"
Ravel giggled cutely, while they continued eating their lunch together happily.
They were glad that at times like this, they could simply relax, and enjoy one another's company.
A small time later on, Akira approached a group of Stray Devils that came into the town of Kuoh. They didn't have a lot of time to make any moves, as after arriving that day, Akira approached them with a sword in hand.
Together with Akeno who decided to tag along, they walked closer.
"I'm glad that I got to come with you Aki-kun. It's always nice having some time alone."
Akira nods.
"Yes, it's always fun to go slaying with other people."
"Ufufu, are your peerage busy?"
"They've got tasks I've set out for them. I thought it would be best if I finish these guys off quickly. Got another show for tonight~"
"Ara, then we can't miss it~ I always love it when you sing Aki-kun, it makes me feel, hot."
Dripping from her lips like honey, each word sent vibrations through Akira's body.
Then her hands placed themselves on his broad back, running from behind and then moved to his upper body, his chest, her own chest pushing against his back, as she moved her head to his ear, whispering in a seductive tone.
"Maybe after the show, we could find a room to have some alone time, what do you think Aki-kun? Don't you feel like having some fun~?"
Akira cocked his neck back, giving off a carefree tone as he spoke.
"Yeah, we could Akeno-san~ Though, what would Rias-chan say?"
"Well, that's all apart of the fun. Isn't Rias the cutest when she's a little jealous? I always find it so sweet."
As she said it, they arrived at the area the Stray Devils were.
Going to the large abandoned warehouse, Akira with a single swing of his sword, broke through the door. The sword didn't even touch the door, as the air pressure from a single swing was more than enough to shatter said metal door.
Stepping inside, they were greeted with three Devils. Each packed to the teeth with weapons of their own. One carried a large spear, another held a club like weapon that looked heavy, and the last seemingly had two meat cleavers in his hands.
All three of them, when seeing Akira, with his black sword, dropped the arrogant look in their eyes, and became frightened.
"Ara, look at those naughty Devil-chan's Aki-kun. We'll have to punish them~"
Akira glanced at Akeno who licked her lips sadistically.
"I think you might be right."
The three Devils looked on in fear, as they could see Akira moving closer and closer.
"No...this isn't the town of the Wolf, is it?!"
"It can't be, I thought we were...ooh shit!"
"We can't fight, lets go!"
Akeno giggled, allowing a teasing finger to run across her sweet supple lips.
"Ufufu, it seems that they didn't know who's town they came into. Aki-kun, maybe it would be best if these boys are finished off. Look at the wickedness in their eyes, and what they did to those poor people before coming here."
Akira gained a devilish smile, which brought fear to the hearts of those around.
"Yeah, it would be best to do just that Akeno-san~"
The Devils panicked, and the one with the two large meat cleavers rushed at him.
"I wont die to yooooooooooooooooou!"
Coming at Akira with his meat cleavers, he swung them both down for the young man.
But the moment they were going to cut him, Akira's blade came up, and sliced right through the meat cleavers, then the blade continued, the blackness of the blade was dyed a shade of red as the body of the enemy was cut down.
The two remaining Devils panicked, and pulled away, while Akira pointed his blade at them.
"Next?"
The Devils shook, but the one with the club dashed at him, coming from the right, and brought it down. Akira slid to the right, avoiding the attack, then leapt up into the air, bringing his blade downwards.
The blade sliced the man down the middle, cutting him down until he vanished.
The last one panicked, trembling at his spear was clutched very tightly within his hands.
"N-No...it can't...I wont...I wont let it happen!"
The Devil turned, and began running away.
Akira raised his hand to shoot some demonic power, when Akeno gave a cute giggle.
"Ara ara, Aki-kun, you don't have to worry about this one, I'll do my part too~"
Akira waved his hand, so Akeno flew up high.
The Devil looked on as the ceiling of the large building had broke in two as a huge bolt of lightning erupted from the sky outside.
Akeno glowed with a bright golden aura, her fingers crackling with lightning sounds, before she allowed the huge bolt of electricity to rain down on her target, the full effects of the lightning were felt almost instantly.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaah!"
The Devil let out a cry, lightning wrapped all around him. Shocking him more and more, to the point that his spear was released onto the ground, as his body fell forward.
Akeno giggled sadistically.
"Ufufufu, trying to come here to cause your disgusting behaviours, that's a bad thing to do~"
Akeno whipped her hand out, releasing a blast of lightning that pierced the Devils upper body while Akira looked on.
Seeing Akeno becoming excited, was quite a treat.
Then she punished the Devil some more, before she moved her hand across the sky, and aimed her fingers towards the Devil. It began raining, with the water clinging to Akeno's skin, and though she was doing something dangerous, Akira thought she was rather beautiful in her movements.
"Goodbye naughty Devil-kun~"
Akeno unleashed her powers down towards the Devil, and finished off the Devil all together.
When she did, Akira moved closer towards her, as she turned back towards him. Her arms snaked around his waist, her eyes dazzling towards him.
"That was pretty fun Akira-kun~"
Akeno leans closer, and nuzzles herself in the crook of his neck, who in turn strokes the back of her head.
"I'm glad that you had fun Akeno-san~"
Akeno happily groans, as she cuddles Akira tightly.
Firmly wrapping his arms around her, and happily stayed together for a short time.
After the brief slaying of the Stray Devils, Akira went towards what was considered a club all their own. A base of operations.
It was situated towards the end of the campus, quite close to the Old School building of Rias' club.
It was a club two floors. The first floor, was where the regular duties, and humans had access to, but the second floor was were business was conducted for the Devils.
It was called the Black Wolf Club, in naming after Akira, and Okami themselves.
Open to all students until around eight in the evening, then it would open up to those that would wish to have contracts done with members of Akira's peerage, or Akira himself depending on what it was.
It was a place where students could come and relax, giving them an opportunity to unwind as they listened to music, was served good foods and drinks.
Lavinia was the main attraction, as the head singer who usually would use her voice to sooth the hearts of the customers with her angelic like voice, together with Kuroka and Valerie as supporting players and would either sing, or dance, and when they weren't doing that, Kuroka would happily chat to different customers and Valerie would offer her own advice to customers.
Koneko would serve different types of drinks, being secretly assisted by Absolute Demise who used her ice abilities to either cool things down, or produce more ice for them.
Elmenhilde is the waitress and delivered what had been ordered to the customers tables, though she sometimes would be a bit cute klutzy and would drop some stuff, but the customers adored it even more.
Akira himself was a chef which he loved to do since he loved cooking, a pass time he loved since the days he was with his Mother. Even Akira sometimes sang, it seemed to, in Ravel's words, entice the female population of the school, something he didn't have a problem with.
Okami even played a role, where he would go around to different tables, and the customers were able to pet him, or play fetch, among other type of games with the dog.
Finally Ravel usually would take care of maintaining order and making sure everything was done to perfect standard, a job quite fitting for a manager of tasks such as Ravel.
Akira saw the place was packed with students, filled to the brim. He even saw the likes of Rias being there, Akeno went to go and join her.
Akira also noticed that Isane was there, and when she saw him, she gave an excited way, which he returned calmly.
Walking across the floor, Akira greeted some regulars while also noticing Ravel coming up towards him, so they went to a private table.
"How did things go Akira-sama?"
"Aah, usual. It didn't take long."
"Glad to hear it." Ravel pulled out some papers and handed them to Akira, before continuing speaking. "While you were busy keeping the town safe, I managed to file the report of the town for this month to the Underworld."
"Great, thanks Ravel-chan."
Ravel smiled as they walked towards the left hand side, sitting in a booth reserved for them.
"Also, it seems business is booming."
"Haha, it's great, isn't it?"
Ravel nods.
"Did you imagine that you'd be doing this when we were little?"
"I didn't think that we'd run such a business together. However, at one point, I wanted to become a chef."
Ravel looked astonished.
"I had no idea, a chef, really?"
"Surprising?"
Akira curiously asked, with Ravel nodding a single time.
"I'll certainly say."
"Well, it was because I used to cook a lot with my Mom, I loved it so much that I wanted to cook many things. Though with how busy life gets, alas, that hobby doesn't really get to take the front seat nowadays."
Ravel gives a cute smile.
"You could cook for me anytime Akira-sama." Akira adopts a wide smile, as Ravel continues. "Also Akira-sama, it seems that the Underworld have been in contact again. They have thought about your wedding."
"Always a joyous time, the Underworld surely are gunning for it over the recent times, aren't they?"
Ravel nods.
"It's why I've asked Iryuka-san to come at her next convenience. It seems that the Underworld are realizing that you're close to eighteen years old. They wont stay silent forever, it is a shame that it is something that is going to come down to..."
As Ravel spoke, Akira placed a reassuring hand on top of her head.
"Don't worry Ravel-chan, we knew this day was coming, Iryuka-san and I will discuss, and go from there."
Ravel nods.
"I just wish the Underworld minded their own business sometimes. Love is something that cannot be rushed."
"Yes, that's very true. Though over the years, Iryuka-san and I have become quite close with one another, so maybe she would want to, marry me."
"What about you Akira-sama? Would you want to marry Iryuka-san?"
Akira turned his eyes to the ceiling briefly, thinking about it.
Then turned back to Ravel, giving a single nod.
"I'd probably say yes."
"I-I see..."
"But, I'll always love my peerage, they're some of the most important things to me, Ravel-chan."
Ravel smiled, and sat close to Akira, hugging his arm tightly.
"Me too, Akira-sama. The peerage is the family we've been building."
Ravel leaned her head on his shoulder.
Akira and Ravel relaxed, watching Lavinia on stage, singing a song towards the crowd. They went wild at her voice, cheering things such as "Lavinia-sensei is amazing!" and "Her voice is so beautiful!" among other things of that nature.
As that was going on, Rias looked over towards Isane, the words of Akira entering her mind beforehand and thought that it might be a good idea to go and get to know her. To see what she was thinking about.
"Akeno, you don't mind if I go over to that girl Isane, and speak with her, do you?"
"If you don't mind me and Aki-kun having alone time fun together later on~"
Rias nearly did a spit take.
"Wh-What?"
Akeno played innocent, and gave a sweet smile on her face.
"Hm, something wrong Buchou? Isn't it perfectly understandable that I'd want to have such a close relationship with Aki-kun?"
"O-Of course it isn't, if that's what you want. Though don't forget me Akeno."
"Ara, do not worry Buchou, we will always have a place for you in our special fun time~"
Rias looked on, and to her, it felt like Akeno was attempting to tease her once more.
Shaking her head, Rias strolls over towards Isane, and taps her shoulder.
"A-Ah, Rias-senpai! I am...I'm surprised! Something y-you need?!"
Rias shakes her head.
"Do you mind if I sit with you? I've noticed that you've been staring at Akira-kun for a while now."
"O-Oh, so the rumours are true?"
"Rumours?"
Rias posed a question as she sat down beside her, Isane nods.
"That you and Akira-kun are...you know, going out..."
Rias tilted her head to the right cutely.
"Well, if we were, it wouldn't make a difference. I'd be happy for Akira-kun to be with anyone that wished to be with him as well."
Isane was surprised to hear that.
"Like a harem?"
Rias gave a semi amused look.
"I suppose you could say that."
"A-And Akira-kun's into that?!"
"Well, yes I think he is. There's girls that like him, and he likes them in return. This way, everyone gets to be happy."
Isane clicks her fingers.
"Exactly Rias-senpai! Aah, I've always dreamed about it, being the Harem Queen with my Harem King~"
Rias lightly laughed.
"Such an intriguing dream you have. Anything is possible."
Isane's smile began to fade.
"But...not for me."
Rias tilts her head.
"How so?"
"Well...you're you, and I'm...I'm me...and..."
Rias could understand where it was going, so she gave Isane a reassuring look.
"Don't worry about such things, you're very beautiful Isane-san."
"I-I am?"
"You are, I wouldn't worry about such things."
"Haha, I'm not so good with fashion as you are, I tend to be a bit of a tomboy."
"Tomboys also have quite the appeal. But if you'd like some advice, I wouldn't mind giving it you."
Isane looked astonished, as the clubs light dimmed, a spot light going towards the stage.
Akira appeared on the stage, Isane's eyes went towards him, as he began singing.
She saw many girls paying attention immediately to the young man, as he sung quite sensually into the microphone.
Isane herself was quite hypnotized with his voice, Rias noticing and nudged her.
"Why don't you ask him out?"
"W-What? N-No, I couldn't! I mean, I could...but, ugh, I don't know..."
"Well, you don't know if you don't try, you know?"
Isane looked towards Akira, as he sung.
She also thought about what Rias said and how she had felt for a good while now.
"Y...Yeah, I could do it…!"
"Yes, I'm sure you could. Besides, I'm sure he'd also love the idea of you asking him out. He's told me himself that he finds you fascinating."
"I'm...fascinating to him?"
Rias nods.
"Yes, that's right, quite fascinating~"
Isane thought about it more and more, as she continued speaking with Rias.
As they spoke, Rias found herself thinking less about the Sacred Gear Isane could have, and more about just Isane as the person. Though she was quite forward with how she felt, like how Akira had described her, she did find Isane quite the intriguing girl.
When the time for the club to close came, everyone of Akira's peerage relaxed near the drink serving area, as Koneko served some drinks to everyone. Ravel was sat up to a table nearby, going over the intake that they received for that evening.
Okami went into puppy form, and laid on Lavinia's lap, who stroked behind his ear.
"Aah, what I need. We really had a packed show tonight~ And the customers, man they really get riled up when Akira-kun or Lavinia-chan sing, they really love it~"
Elmenhilde smiled out, as Lavinia nods.
"I know, everyone was so excited~ Ooh, I saw a lot of our regulars, they're all so good and kind~"
"That's because we kick out those weirdos that try weird stuff."
Kuroka adds on, Koneko nods as she hops into Akira's lap.
"...Yes, we can't have the people that ruin it for others around. Also Senpai, our supplies came, I put them in the back room."
Akira pets Koneko's head.
"Thanks Koneko-chan."
Koneko looks up at Akira, and gives off a cute smile.
"Though Senpai, do we have contracts after this?"
Elmenhilde asks.
"We've got some. Actually, I'll just go over them now and see what we've got to do. It shouldn't take us long, it has been a long day so don't worry, just easy stuff~"
As Akira said and did look over the contracts for that night, Valerie took off her shoes and rubbed her feet.
"Ooh, being on my feet for so long, it can be quite difficult can't it?"
"Poor Valerie-chan~ What if I give you a foot massage later on?"
Akira offered, with Valerie blushing up a storm.
"A-A foot massage? Y-Yes...that would be good."
Akira chuckled, petting her head which made her smile.
"You all did fantastic tonight, Ravel-chan's going over it now, but I saw we made quite a bit on tips tonight. But now with the contracts...hmm, Lavinia-chan, you've got a request from your usual Mil-tan. Mil-tan should be here, anytime now~"
"Ooh Mil-tan, yes I'm currently teaching Mil-tan some Magic~ Last time, he flew on a tree trunk instead of a broom, talk about inventive~"
Akira smiled at Lavinia exuding happiness and continued on.
"Elmen-chan, you've also got your usual group, seems like they wish to watch something called True Blood with you. They seemed keen to watch it with a genuine Vampire. They should be here within twenty minutes."
Elmenhilde nods.
"I see, then I'll go set up the entertainment system in here."
Akira lightly laughs, seeing Elmenhilde's love of different media shining through.
"Kuroka-san, you've also got a request...hmm, apparently, she's a shy woman that has a crush on her colleague who's outgoing and she's having difficulty approaching him, so she wishes to ask you on relationship advice. I asked if she wished to come here, but she was nervous, so if you don't mind going to her home?"
Kuroka pats her chest, grinning ear to ear.
"Ararara, a work place romance? Well, I'll certainly look into that nyaa~ And not a problem, I'll go where she feels comfortable nyaa~"
Akira smiles, and turns to Valerie.
"Valerie-chan, you've also got a contract, to play some cards with one of your regulars, they should be here pretty soon. Though this time, go easy on them haha~"
Valerie sticks out her tongue cutely.
"Ooh, I see, then I'll get ready myself~"
Valerie sings, while Akira turns to Koneko.
"Koneko-chan, you also have a client wishing for you to move their furniture around, and to set up some stuff they aren't sure on how to do. From here, it says that they need a bed built, and a couch moving from one room to another, among a few others. Shouldn't take all that long, I'll have Okami go with you since you're leaving here. Ooh yes, Ravel-chan will also go with you Kuroka-san, you know with that incident that's occurring in the human world targeting Devils."
"...Then I shall do so quickly."
Koneko spoke, with Kuroka nodding.
"Nyaaaa, that's fine with me, but what about Ravel-chan's contract?"
"She's already done hers, talk about multitasking."
"Aah, I see. How about you Aki-chan? Got any contracts?"
Akira nods.
"Yeah, I've got a contract to go and de curse an item, shouldn't take me more than a minute to do based on what I've seen. It's a basic Magic."
As he said it, the others nod happily.
A minute or so later, Ravel comes back towards them.
"Akira-sama, everyone. It seems that we made quite a bit." Ravel showed them the money and began sharing it between everyone. "These are just the tips, we're doing really well~"
Akira nods his head, as everyone begins getting to work.
However, as they were, Kuroka came up to Akira before she left.
"Aki-chan, I just got a strange feeling, something's entered Kuoh."
"I see, tell me and I'll go and see what it is."
Kuroka did just that, so Akira took off to see what it was, with the peerage being ready in case they were needed.
Isane walked back home, going through her usual ways. Thinking about her day, with Rias, and what she said, she did have to admit that she was curious if she did ask Akira out, what his response would be, and what they'd do together if he did accept her offer of a date.
However, while she did walk, she noticed that the street that usually was jam packed, wasn't at this time.
It was odd for the brunette, but she saw plenty of light bathing her path home, so she walked towards the different areas.
Following behind her, looked to be a some kind of creature.
Oozing out of the ground, like some kind of slime.
But something was different about this.
It was a slime that was carrying a deadly poison within.
Even one touch could cause someone to suffer.
The slime went towards the unsuspecting Isane who moved through the well lit street areas.
Isane felt something wasn't right.
"This is odd...something...no, maybe because it is usually packed...weird..."
Though she wasn't entirely sure, because the street was usually so packed, it being empty gave her a feeling in the pit of her stomach that she wasn't entirely sure what to think.
She carried on, moving faster than she had done before.
Her feet carried her as fast as possible.
Her body didn't stop for anything.
She rounded a corner, and looked back as she did.
But she didn't see anything.
"Yeah...I'm not feeling followed...just my imagination..."
It felt strange to her why she'd feel like this.
She didn't think she had reasons to feel unsafe.
It felt like something inside of her was compelling her to run.
In the end, she did do that, and began running.
As she did, the slime made its move.
Moving across the ground, quickening its pace.
It came up right behind Isane, and became larger in size.
Big enough to completely capture Isane, it made its move…
"..."
But then, the slimes existence ended as immeasurable black blades erupted from the shadows, stabbing its existence everywhere, and released some ominous power that erased it within moments.
Isane heard the sound of metal, so she turned around quickly.
Only to discover nothing there.
The danger she also felt inside suddenly vanished.
"Weird...what the hell was that feeling…? It seems to be gone now...weird."
She thought to herself as she turned back around, and walked away.
In the shadows, Akira came out, his eyes being on Isane as she made it back home.
He looked at the place he had slain the slime, and then back towards Isane's home.
"Who's targeting you Ise-chan, I do wonder."
As he thought about it, seeing Isane go back into the safety of her home, he vanishes into the darkness once more, many questions on his mind.
End chapter!
So we are in canon territory now! With Isane being introduced, and already seems to be a target for something! Akira and the others have moved on more than when they were young, with the majority of them students, save for Lavinia who was a Sensei, and Valerie who played the role of school nurse.
Rias is also contemplating adding Isane to the group, someone Akira seems quite familiar with. And the Fallen Angels are freaking out due to Akira, and his group along with the other Devils being in town.
Well, until next time, thanks for reading!
