Judan: Alright! Back with my story! WHOOWHOO!
Slayer: A bit overdramatic don't you think?
Argentum: Maybe but this is his first story.
Shadow: Meh… I think he's just crazy in my professional opinion.
Slayer: When did I give you a doctorate in psychology?
Shadow: I'm a Darkwraith… is it really all that surprising?
Slayer: Fair enough…
Judan: Oh yeah!
Slayer: Is he still on about this?
Argentum: Unfortunately he is…Whelp since I've rarely done it I'm going to end this little farce.
Slayer/Shadow: Go ahead.
Argentum: Very well ahem… We here at the Dark Guard productions own nothing but OC's and reality building concepts. Everything else belongs to their respective owners. Now without further ado…
All minus Judan: Here's the story!
Judan: YESSS!
Slayer: Man am I happy that I control everything.
Argentum: Hmm… quite. Oh yeah! Just so we get everything out of the way here are the latest and last updates to certain things.
Slayer: Yeah at this point we won't really change anything. Or at least I hope not… Judan can be a bit spontaneous sometimes. But this is what we got now we hope you enjoy.

Chapter Two: Red heads
The Void king
Getting Raynare back to our house was actually rather easy. Disposing of the summoning circle Issei had, easier. Figuring out what to exactly do about Raynare… a bit more difficult, but I was nothing if resourceful. Thankfully I already knew that she was not here by orders of Azazel. After all… he first would've told me if he was sending anyone over. Secondly… he would never send anyone over to kill Issei even undercover. He wasn't the kind of guy to do such underhanded things… well at least most of the time. There was that one time where he… uh nevermind…
Shaking my head from those thoughts I focused on the task at hand. Right now I and Mittelt were in the basement of the house. Looking forward one could see the unconscious form of Raynare. I had put her inside a barrier in the middle of the room. Both me and my rook looked at each other before sighing. We knew that it wasn't feasible to keep her trapped in the barrier. So walking up to the obstruction I set up I quickly took it down. Then using some water magic I dumped a large glob of it on her face. She woke up sputtering for air.
"Wha-what is going on? Wait where am I? How did I get here?"
'It seems as though she hasn't noticed us yet.' I snorted in agreement before clearing my throat to gain the fallen's attention. She then looked at both me and Mittelt with wide eyes.
"Mittelt? Rodrick? What are you guys doing here? And where am I at the moment?" I took an annoyed breath before answering.
"Raynare right now you're in our house's basement. As for why you're here… You tried to kill my pawn earlier, a certain Issei Hyoudou. A name which I'm pretty sure sounds familiar to you." I narrowed my eyes at her to make her squirm a bit. But when she heard what I said she started freaking out.
"WHAT?! That can't be! I would've been told if he was your pawn! My orders were to kill him before he became a danger to us! Azazel sama would never lie about this! He's too nice to do that to you! Especially since you're his second favorite…" I then pinched the bridge of my nose before talking again.
"Raynare did Azazel actually order you to kill him personally. Or did someone else tell you to do it in his name?" She was about to answer with an immediate yes, but thankfully the question actually sunk in. She then started grimacing but didn't answer.
Seeing this reaction I continued. "Huh… That's what I thought." Kneeling down I quickly untied her as I continued my questioning. "Could you tell us who ordered you to kill him, and also tell us what your next move was supposed to be?" As I helped her up she nodded her head and began to tell us.
"Well first off, it was actually Kokabiel sama that gave us this order. He also said that the order came straight from Azazel Sama. And well… I, Kalawarner, and Dohnaseek all agreed that we could use this opportunity to raise our ranks. I guess you could say we were a bit too excited about this. It had been awhile since our last big mission after all…"
I snorted at that. "You forgot to mention that you guys are pretty much Azazel fangirls and boy." She gave me a glare at that statement but didn't refute my claim. Thus making it easy to just shrug off the fallen's glare. Rolling her eyes she continued with her explanation.
Guess she was getting used to my antics. "Anyway before I was interrupted! I was going to tell you about what we were going to do after we killed Hyoudou. Well you see there's supposed to be a nun coming soon. She has a unique sacred gear called Twilight Healing. We were told to extract it and do whatever we wanted with it. To be honest I was kind of just figuring that I'd take it for myself." At this I gave my best glare at her while sending some dragon aura at her. She quickly started sweating and obtained a fearful look on her face.
If there is one thing I hate, it is when people use others for their own gain. If it wasn't for the fact that Raynare was actually Mittelt's friend, and that she thought she was under orders… I'd probably incinerate her. It was for this reason that I hate Sirzechs. The devil had done a majority of things that have pissed me off. Namely what he allowed to happen to the Nekoshou. I shook my head from those thoughts. Right now wasn't a time to focus on something like that. Right now I needed to try and save that Nun.
Although I might have to house her for a while… if only because I doubt she has anywhere to go. Letting up on my glare but still looking at her sternly, I told her what was going to happen.
"Alright first you will tell me who this nun is, and then you'll tell me when she's arriving. After that you'll apologize for tricking her, and then explain that someone else wants to meet with her. I'll then come by to pick her up, for I've decided that we'll be taking care of her from then on. But before you do any of that, you will apologize to Issei for trying to kill him. Then we will see what to do with you after all this is over." Thankfully this whole mess was fairly straight forward. I knew that whoever she was with would probably go along with the idea since… I'm fairly well known within the Grigori.
Plus who wants to argue with the guy who has two of the strongest beings in the world on his side? Not many I can assure you. So with a nod of her head we left the dung… I mean the basement, to go and find Issei. The house was three stories with twenty bedrooms. I had personally enchanted the entire house. It was impossible to enter via teleportation, and impossible to break into. The only way in was a key given to everyone that allows them to open the front door. I have a few extra key copies lying around, but for the most part teleportation was restricted by key access.
The three of us ended up finding Issei watching TV with everyone else. Well except Ophis who was eating some snack at the table. Looking over at us she gave a small wave before going back to eating. Just smiling at her I quickly gave her a had pat before moving over by the couch. Mittelt quickly went over to Red's side and snuggled against him.
Again I still don't get that
[Me and you kid, me and you both.]
'Would you two just lay off them?! I mean they don't push their noses into your love lives!'
[Okay first off, yes they do. Secondly I'm inside a sacred gear what love life do I have?]
Masamune then sniffled a bit. 'You mean you don't like me?'
[….] I quickly decided to ignore all that before things escalated. Looking back up I saw Issei now staring at us. So clearing my throat I gestured towards the fallen angel.
"Well everyone this is as some of you know and some of you don't. This women is Raynare, and she has something to say to you Issei." Nudging the nervous fallen a bit she clasped her hands in front of her before speaking.
"Listen I'm really sorry for causing you all trouble and for trying to kill you Issei. But at the time I thought I was just following orders." She then gave a low bow. "Please forgive me." Issei rubbed his head sheepishly before answering.
"Umm… Don't worry about it Yu… I mean Raynare san. I knew what was going to happen before we went on the date. So… as long as you don't try to kill me anymore we're good. Besides I couldn't find it in myself to stay angry at such a cute girl." Raynare stopped bowing at that and sighed in relief, though I could see that she had a true blush on her face. Chuckling a bit I started pushing her towards the door.
"Well now since that's over, you need to go since there are a few more things you need to do." Saying goodbye to everyone and promising to hang out with Mittelt sometime later. She walked out the door while I closed it behind her.
"Okay everyone now that she's gone I have a small announcement." That got everyone's but Ophis's attention who just kept eating. Shaking my head at her antics I continued. "You see there was a nun that was supposed to come into town thanks to Raynare's false orders. Now when the time comes I'll go pick her up, she'll be staying with us for a while. She'll be staying across from Mittelt's room. So everyone please be nice and just be friendly got it?" I got an okay from everyone but Ophis who kept eating. Instead she gave a small fist pump. That had quickly made everyone laugh.
Hi my name is Line break not a vampire the third!
Today was now Monday, and the morning routine had just settled in. Only this time I was the one to gently wake Ophis up. Thankfully it seemed as if Issei had finally learned his lesson. Guess being targeted for assassination shook him up a bit. For after the whole debacle he seemed to have mellowed out a bit. Not that I blame him… having a target on ones back isn't enjoyable… and I should know!
After arriving at school I saw that as usual Koneko was there waiting for us. However this time I saw her eyes widen when they landed on Issei. Not thinking much of it since she probably is a bit surprised to see him alive. I ignored it and gave her the usual snacks. She and Ophis than sped off somewhere, though Ophis was acting a bit off this time around. For there was a firm look in her eye. A look that made me quite uncomfortable and I knew that whatever it was involved Koneko.
Deciding that it was a problem for future me, I decided to ignore it while the rest of us continued onwards. As we did so I noticed that something was off. People kept whispering things about Issei, which in of itself wasn't exactly weird. No it was what they were saying that differed from the norm.
"What is he doing here?"
"Isn't he supposed to be dead?"
"To bad about that all perverts should die!" I sweat dropped at that last one. Still why would they think he was dead? Unless…
Gremory had thought he actually did die on his date when she wasn't summoned.
[Hmph! That's the most likely case kid. BAH! They have quite a bit of nerve just assuming he was killed. I mean what would happen if it really was just a fallen asking him out on a date?] I could feel him shaking his head before continuing. [That would not have been pretty. It would mean that the kid still didn't have knowledge of the supernatural. Thus they would have ended up dragging him in. When will they learn that there are always consequences for every action?] I nodded my head at that.
True… although we have no room to talk since we dragged him in as well.
[Hey we offered to erase his memories, but remember he wanted a harem.]
Yeah you're right I take back any sympathy. With that thoughtI quickly pulled Issei aside to create a cover story.
"Okay more than likely you'll be asked about what happened on your date. You'll just say that you had fun and the two of you went your separate ways after that. If they push don't be afraid to push back a little. However make sure to freak out a little if they end up "revealing" themselves as devils. Also refuse any offer they have, your excuse will be that you want to stay human. Oh! And make sure to act as confused as possible." He grimaced a bit before replying.
"Alright I'll try but I'm not the greatest liar as you know." I sighed at that.
"Yeah well just do your best and if the worst comes around, we'll just have to make an appearance sooner rather than later. I just hope that my mother won't make a big deal out of it… I swear that woman is going to be the death of me." After a small chuckle he seemed to feel down. That's when he looked at the ground apologetically.
"Look I'm sorry about this. None of this would have happened if I wasn't so stupid." I didn't even pause in my response.
"It's not your fault." Now this made him look at me in confusion. Said look made me laugh before I began talking again. "Don't try and overthink it. We were already suspicious to begin with. More than likely Souna would've figured us out eventually. In fact I would've slipped up first if you hadn't. After all I'm the one who hangs out with Koneko and Souna the most." Now that was true, Souna or Sona was actually a good friend of mine. I would also admit to really liking Koneko. So much so that if I wasn't already with Ophis I'd probably ask her on a date.
Shaking my head from those thoughts I put my hand on Issei's shoulder. "So once again… don't worry about it too much. And besides! The only way they'd ever be a threat is if they called Sirzechs." Issei gained an angry look along with myself. When he joined I had explained to him everything, and by everything I meant everything.
I wanted to make sure he wasn't ever blindsided by any of the various factions. I may have also told him my reasons for hating the king of the devils. I was surprised when he agreed with me. I guess there are just some books you couldn't judge by the cover. Both sighing now we quickly shook hands and left for out classes, however when we shook hands I placed a tracking spell on him. I didn't know what could happen after all.
Once in my first period class I waved over to both Ophis and Koneko. The two of them had arrived before me. As they waved back I took my seat while the other two ended up whispering to each other. As they spoke I noticed that there still was a mischievous look on Ophis' face. Only reinforcing my earlier idea that she was scheming something. She then said something that made the Nekoshou blush heavily. I just looked at them confused while I waited for class to start. There was still twelve minutes left. But… seeing how we were all high school students. That meant everyone else would get here the moment the second hand reached fifty-nine.
"Um Rodrick…" Looking to my side I could see a red faced Koneko staring at me. She almost looked like she was about to fry her own brain. Standing up I quickly place my hand on her forehead.
"Hey are you alright? You look like you're about to pass out from heatstroke!" Okay know that I'm not oblivious to things. I understand that Koneko might have feelings for me as I do for her but… Right now she actually looked like she was about to pass out! Plus there's Ophis to worry about. Now I'm not saying that she'll hurt Koneko. Oh no! I'm worried about what would happen to me! Now while it's true it's fine to have multiple girls in the supernatural world… I was good with having just one.
But despite my own thoughts on the matter, at this time I learned that two people thought differently. I also wouldn't find out until later just how differently they thought.
"Hey do you need me to take you to the nurses? Because I-oomph!" That was when grabbed my head and shoved her lips onto mine. Very quickly did I notice two things. One her rather constant lavender scent was stronger than before, and two her lips were really soft. It felt good don't get me wrong but it was fairly sudden. That and the fact that Ophis was clapping her hands really threw me off. When she pulled back all I could do was stare as she put her face into her hands.
"Uhh…" Trying to recover as quickly as possible I had Kuros mentally slap me. "Well that was unexpected… nice but unexpected. But what exactly happened here? And why is Ophis cheering?" That last part was mostly directed at Ophis who just gave me a really catty look. This is saying something, since a Nekoshou just kissed me.
"You agreed to also have Koneko be one of your harem ma-I mean wives." I just looked at her confused.
I do believe she was about to say harem mates… I then shook my head before trying to clear up my confusion.
"When did I agree to…" I trailed off there as my eyes widened. I then remembered the confusing conversation a little ago.
{FLASH BACK GEAR} ACTIVATED!
"I wouldn't mind." I looked over to Ophis who was now sitting beside me.
"Huh?" Was my intelligent reply to her statement?
"I wouldn't mind if it was just Koneko." I still didn't understand what she meant so instead just rolled with it and nodded my head.
{FLASH BACK GEAR} DEACTIVATED!
"By the void I did agree…" That got both Ophis and Koneko giggling, despite Koneko still being red from embarrassment. So with a chuckle of my own I faced the white cat. "Alright then I guess I can accept this. But I need to ask you one thing… Koneko are you sure about this? Because if you two have already come to an agreement that's fine. But are you absolutely sure?" At this she bit her lip to think for a while.
This has got to be one of the most nerve racking things in my life.
[Oh whoa is me! I now have two cute girls wanted to make out with me!] I could feel him frown at his own sarcastic remark. [Listen kid just go along with it. Trust me this was bound to happen eventually. For once little Ros- Ophis get's something into her head she doesn't give up on it.] For a few moments I was confused. For I could've sworn Kuros was about to say another name besides Ophis. Deciding to question him later I refocused back on Koneko.
Right on time to for she seemed to come to a resolution. "Yeah I'm sure about this! I really want to be with you, and don't worry me and Ophis have talked extensively about this. The only one left to convince is yourself. So please accept my feelings for you." I looked into her eyes at her begging look. I inwardly berated myself for having made her nervous. After all she had the courage to kiss me and confess.
Hmph! I guess I should do the same then. I then closed my eyes and took a breath. Opening them I gave her a warm smile before gently grabbing her arm. This made her yelp as I pulled her into a comforting embrace. Looking at Ophis I could see her nod her head in approval.
"Don't worry about a thing Koneko. I accept you and everything else." I then put her at arm's length before kissing her again. She practically melted at that. Pulling away from her completely red face she took a few steps back. Although on her beautiful face was an amazing smile. Ophis then walked up next to me and gave her a tight hug as well. Ophis than went up to me and quickly gave me a surprise kiss.
I think this will take time to get used to…
'Oh shush you! I find it adorable! You have two amazing girls who agreed to share you. Plus you have equal feelings for both.'
[Shockingly I have to agree with Masamune. Although I'm surprised this didn't happen sooner. After all dragons do tend to attract friends, enemies, and lovers. I remember talking to Ddraig about some of his hosts. Sheesh! There was this one guy with twenty girls in his bed!]
I truly believe just having these two amazing women will be perfect. No way am I creating a harem like that. I still don't see why Issei wants one. Too much work to be honest. It's going to take all my energy just to make sure these two stay as happy.
Deciding to end the conversation with that I refocused on the cat and dragon. "Alright then now that we have this settled, anything you two want to discuss? You know to just work out any kinks here." That made them both straighten their backs and look at each other nervously. Now if that wasn't concerning enough… Ophis answered first.
"Before we begin there are two subjects. For the first one I want to say I'm sorry and also ask for your forgiveness." I looked at her confused which made her elaborate. "You see… I have already informed Koneko about all of us. Along with what you truly are… but don't worry! She of course promised not to tell anyone." At Koneko's nod I decided to just shrug it off before answering.
"Don't worry I forgive you, because more than likely I was probably going to tell her after all this. It wouldn't have been right to keep all of it a secret from her after this. Plus if it's either of you I could never stay mad." That caused both girls to sigh in relief. But after that moment of relief, they both adopted serious looks while nodding to each other. I gulped a little seeing that this was probably going to be uncomfortable.
"Okay second subject. We know all three of us have yet to "do" it with anyone. So we were wondering who would be your first." At this they both stared at me intensely while I just stood there gaping at them like a fish.
Um…Kuros any advice here?
[Please don't drag me into this. For this right here… is all your problem kid.]
'Ooh! It won't matter to me because I'll still be an aunty! Plus I know you said you're fine with two but how about another, or two, maybe three more?!'
Me and Kuros both sweat dropped at this.
You know… You and mother are really alike.
[I second that.]
'Oh you know you love it Kuros! OH! By the way all this talk is getting me in a mood!~ Come on let's go have some fun together~!' At that I quickly shut them both out as Masamune dragged Kuros, (now forced into his human form) into the deeper parts of my mind. Looking back at the two beauties in front of me, I knew they wanted an answer. As luck would have it however, the school bell rang out throughout the building. And so like a gun going off everyone bustled inside. Taking the opportunity I quickly changing the subject as I sat down.
"Oh would you look at that! School started so we better get to work~." I said that fast and without hesitation. However this made both women look upset. However they both sighed and accepted it. With said acceptation they quickly took their seats.
Shesh that was close. Now I just have to avoid this subject until something else happens.
"Oh by the way Rodrick." Turning to my left where Ophis was sitting I focused on her. "Koneko will be moving in later this day. More than likely we'll all be sharing a room. So we can discuss the previous topic then." I grimaced but still nodded my head.
Oh creator things just can't go my way can they? I then heard Kuros's cries for help within my mind. Well at least I'm not the only one having a rough time.
Hi my name is Line break not a vampire the third!
The Red emperor
Well things could've gone much better today. When I arrived to my class a little late, I could hear my teacher talking about something.
"It is with… regret that I must inform you that Issei Hyoudou has passed away. Over the weekend he was hit by a drunk driver. There will be a funeral service held…" He didn't finish as I quickly opened the door.
"What the hell are you talking about?! I'm not dead!" This made the whole class freeze in shock as they stared at me. The teacher was the first to recover.
"Bu-but Issei I received word that you were hit by a truck and killed. How are you alive?"
"Oi! I think I would remember being hit by a truck! All that happened was me going on a date this last Sunday. It was actually rather fun now that I think of it…" The whole class was silent after that. Whether it was from me being alive or going on a date remained unclear. Thankfully the teacher recovered and began to talk again.
"Well it's obvious someone's played a little prank. I'm sorry about this everyone; I especially apologize to you Issei. Now please take your seat and we'll begin class." Just nodding my head in acceptance, I went over and sat down.
Okay you got to admit Ddraig that everyone's faces were hilarious.
{Bwahaha! Yes I must agree partner! You think we can try this again sometime? Like if you ever become famous, just fake your death and see what the press says. Then just show up somewhere without a care. Ooh! That'd be hilarious!}
Heck yeah! I think it would also help with my Harem! Mental high-five! We did just that, which made everyone confused when they saw my non-perverted goofy smile. Ahh yes things were going to go my way today… or so I thought until about after school. For that was when Yuuto Kiba, a short blond haired boy with grey eyes and a mole underneath the left… decided to show up and ruin everything.
"""It's KIBA""" Oh yeah… right… he's also the most popular guy in school and a complete bishonen.
All handsome's should die! All of them keep taking all the girls leaving none for me and my friends!
{Uh partner I'm pretty sure it's your perversion that keeps driving them away. Remember what Booker said before?} I slumped my shoulders at this. True I do actually remember what he told me. But it's just so hard to change something that's been a part of you for so long.
"Kya!" A tick mark grew on my head as I kept hearing the fangirling of every female in my class.
Heh! If only they knew the guy was actually a devil.
{If only they knew you were a dragon.}
Hmm touché… I Chuckled at Ddraig's comment before sighing. For more than likely Kiba was here to take me to Rias. Now unlike that Lolicon Rodrick (Don't tell him I called him that) I am completely neutral towards her. But that's more thanks to her never personally doing anything to myself, or those I care about.
"Issei Hyoudou right?" I look over to the voice to see Kiba standing there.
Just as we thought… definitely here to take me to the "ORC" (Occult research club) room. I remember the little rant Rodrick had when he heard about their cover. He kept saying how stupid and obvious it was. I myself had to actually agree with him on some of the points he brought up.
"Yes that's my name so don't wear it out. But do you need something?" Best to just play dumb like my king said. Besides he'll back me up if something happens right?
"Well Buchou wants you to come to the club room to talk about a few things." Way to be subtle about it you damn bishonen.
"Uhh… and who is this Buchou you speak of?" Hehe I know who it is.
"Sorry I meant Rias Gremory. I'm just used to calling her Buchou since she's the president of the club." Huh… I think he was completely serious about that.
Trying to act normal I got out of my chair and saluted. "If one of the great ladies needs me then I'll certainly be there! Lead the way bishonen!" I said that as enthusiastically as I could.
It seemed to have worked as I saw him sweat drop a bit at my antics. "We-well just follow me then."
"Yes please do lead the way, for I have quite a few other things to do." With that we both left the classroom to go to the club room. Along the way I saw Rodrick who gave me a thumbs up. I also returned one without Kiba noticing. However he did stop to look at Rodrick with an confused expression. Hell even I stared with the same face.
What we were staring at was both Ophis, and! Koneko holding onto his arms in a rather clingy fashion, now while that wasn't surprising for Ophis. That girl is his girlfriend after all. But the fact that Koneko was also doing so brought up a lot of questions. They were also walking off in the opposite direction of our house.
"Wonder what those three are up to?" Kiba just shook his head at my question.
"I have no idea but I'm pretty sure Buchou won't like this. Koneko chan was also supposed to be at the clubroom today." I just shrugged.
"You think they're just hanging out for the day?"
"Possibly, but we should probably go before Buchou gets impatient. I'll just have to tell her that Koneko isn't joining for some reason or another." Once that conversation ended we kept on moving, however along the way we kept hearing the girls whispering about us.
"What is the prince thinking walking with the pervert!"
"Yeah! Kiba Kun be careful he'll corrupt you!"
"Wait you think they're together?" That comment got both of us to falter in our steps. I quickly turned towards Kiba.
"They can't be serious right?" I saw him give a nervous smile before answering.
"I- I hope not." In the end we decided to just ignore everything and head to our destination. The club room was actually on the second floor to the old school building. So walking up the steps Kiba knocked on the door.
"Buchou I brought him." We heard some moving around and the door opened. This revealed a beautiful long black haired girl with violet eyes. Her hair was tied into a ponytail that reached all the way down to her legs. She used an orange ribbon to tie it back and had two strand of hair sticking out of it. She was also wearing the schools uniform only with black knee high socks.
This was the second great lady of Kuoh. Akeno Himejima, however what most people didn't know was that she was also a devil. As well as something else but Rodrick didn't tell me what it was. In fact now that I think of it he did the same thing with Koneko.
As I pondered this Akeno spoke up. "Ara ara! There you are Kiba san. We were wondering when you would get here." She then tried looking behind us as if trying to see someone else. "Speaking of which do you know where Koneko chan is?" At that Kiba scratched his cheek a bit.
"Ah… About that, I don't think she's joining today." Himejima sempai raised an eyebrow at this prompting him to continue. "Well… you see we saw her wondering off with Ophis and Booker san. So I don't actually know what's going on with her." She rubbed her chin in thought before gaining a certain look. I don't know what it was but that look made me shiver. It also had the same effect on Kiba.
What was that just now? Ddraig do you have any ideas?
{Partner I may be thousands of years old but… even I have no idea. In fact I felt whatever you felt. Don't worry it scared me also.} Well that ain't good. The power dragon even Maou's and gods fear was scared.
You know that's not exactly something to not be worried over!
{Yeah… now that I think of it that probably wasn't the best thing to say…}
Before I could make another comment the busty devil spoke up. "Oh well nothing we can do now. So don't just stand there you two~! Buchou will be out soon enough."
"Huh?" Shaking my head the two of us walked in as she stepped aside. The room had magic circles all over the place and had a few couches. At the far end of the room was a desk with another chair behind it. In the center of the room off to the right however was a shower. And someone was currently in it! I could tell it was a girl since I could see her "proportions".
"Whoa…" I managed to keep myself to a single word. But it was a lot harder for me than you might think…
"Ara, just sit down over there and I'll bring you some tea." Not able to respond with words because of my… uh issues. I complied by just plopping myself down on a couch. Kiba ended up sitting on an opposite couch.
"Ahh sorry to keep you waiting but I didn't have a chance to shower earlier." Looking towards the voice I had to try even harder to keep my nose from bleeding at the sight I saw. Coming out of the shower wrapped in a towel was Rias Gremory. She had crimson hair that went down to her thighs, blue eyes, and large Oppai! She also had a strand of hair sticking out from the top of her head. She also had loose bangs covering her forehead and also side bangs that framed her face. Her skin was pearly white but not as pale as Ophis's or Koneko's.
She ended up sitting down at her desk where Himejima san put down a cup of tea. She then came over to me and gave me a cup. Thanking her I took a sip.
As soon as I tasted it I had to comment. "Th-this is amazing!" It was true the tea was on par with Rodrick's! Not in a thousand years did I think anyone could match him in well… Anything referring to cooking.
Hearing this she put her hand on her cheek. "Ara, Ara, Thank you my cute Kohai." I rub my head sheepishly at being called cute.
"Well then Issei now that… Wait where's Koneko chan?" Looking over at Rias who somehow had changed without me noticing, I saw her looking around for the before mentioned girl.
Kiba was the one to answer her. "To be honest we're not exactly sure… Me and Hyoudou san saw her walking off somewhere with Booker and Ophis san." Her eyes narrowed slightly at that.
"I see… We'll have to check in with her later then. Anyway Issei san, can I call you Issei?"
"Umm… Sure I guess, everyone else calls me that anyways." I saw her smile at my answer.
"Well Issei san I called you here because we of the occult research club like to study strange things. And you showing up after being declared dead is strange. Not that it's a bad thing though." I was going to retort, but decided not to say anything. Instead I gave her a bland look, this prompted her to continue after a nervous chuckle. "Eheh… So we were just wondering what happened on that date of yours." Here's the hard part for me. I now had to lie and hope they don't catch it. Though it will be easier without Koneko here.
Huh… You think that's the reason the three of them went out together?
{Possibly after all Rodrick did call her a strong sensor. So it's possible but… Something tells me that's not it. Maybe he has finally stopped being a prude and has decided to make a harem?} I mentally agreed with Ddraig, for that actually made some sense. Turning to the others in the room I could see they were waiting for an answer so I gave them one. Albeit it was only a half truth.
"Well the school week before a really cute girl named Yuma Amano showed up. She asked me on a date, and who was I to turn her down so I agreed. So last Sunday we went on one and had a great time. After that we left each other to go our separate ways. She said she'd call me again if she wanted another one. Sorry if that doesn't help with this mystery." I said that in an apologetic tone while also rubbing the back of my head. Yeah I was doing everything I could to get her to buy my story.
"Hmm…" She kept her gaze on me as if studying me. I laughed a bit nervously at her stare.
"Um Sempai why are you looking at me like that?" It was a valid question, one anyone in my position would ask.
"Well Issei does the terms devils, fallen angels, and sacred gears mean anything to you?" I tried to look as confused as possible.
"Huh? Well the first two things are stuff from the bible right? But I don't know anything about sacred gears. Wait… what does this have to do with anything? It's not like my date wasn't normal or anything." So looked me straight in the eye as if she was trying to see if I was lying. Her smirk told me that she managed to catch a small part of my lie.
"Really are you absolutely sure your date didn't involve any of those things? That it was completely normal?" I gulped slightly at that.
"Uhh… Yeah I'm sure, not like she was a fallen angel or anything." I mentally slapped myself for that last part.
{Partner that has got to be one of the worst lies I've ever heard.}
I unfortunately have to agree with you. But in my defense I did say I was no good when it comes to lying. Me and Rodrick should have went over a few more scenarios. After a moment of looking at Rias' downright vicious face. I managed to think of a way out. Hey I got it! I know how to escape from this situation!
I then slammed my fist into my left palm while making a face of realization. I got the desired reaction of them being incredibly confused and put on guard.
"Hey I just remembered something awesome! Would you guys like to see it?!"They all looked at me suspiciously, as if they thought I was going to do something terrible. Looking at the other two Rias turned back to me and nodded her head.
So executing my plan I stood up. Slowly walked over to the door mechanically, opened it, went outside, and then closed it with an audible click. I then ran away as fast as I could.
"I can't believe that worked!" Yelling that out loud along with flailing my arms in the air I jumped for joy as I ran.
{Partner that was the most brilliant thing I've ever seen.} I heard Ddraig say that with both sniffles and a proud sounding voice.
Oh yeah but now we need to get to the house before any of them catch up.
Hi my name is Line break not a vampire the third!
The Spectator
Rias and the others just stared at the door Issei had just calmly left through. And if one was paying close enough attention. Then one could hear the sounds of crickets in the room. Kiba was the first to break the silence.
"I do believe we've just been had." Rias finally recovered from her shock, growled in utter frustration.
"I can't believe it! He's much smarter than he looks. Not only did he make us confused, but he then went in and used our suspicion against us! Just when was he capable of such thinking?!"
What's worse is what Sona would say if she ever finds out about this!
Quickly turning to her subordinates Rias barked out orders. "Kiba! Akeno! Quickly go after him. He couldn't have gotten too far!"
""Hai Buchou!"" Answering her quickly the other two in the room sped off out the door in pursuit.
Meanwhile Issei took his suppression ring from out of his pocket and put it on. This way any pursuers would be hard pressed to find him. And so with that… the chase was on. Sensing something behind him Issei ducked into a nearby convenient alley. Hiding behind a dumpster he watched as Kiba flew by him. Scowling at having almost been caught he promoted to a knight.
Okay now my with speed increased this should be easier. But just in case Ddraig tell me if anyone gets to close.
{Alright partner.} Taking a hesitant step from out behind the dumpster he peered around the street. Seeing no one he sped off. He stopped periodically to just take a look around himself.
However during one of his pauses Akeno managed to spot him.
"Fufufu, Issei kun! I managed to find you." Using her own knight trait as a queen she sped up behind him.
Ah ha! I'm sure he'll listen to little cute me.~ Especially if I offer a reward!~ However before she got to close Ddraig had already warned him and he sped away. This left a very surprised Akeno staring at the spot he once was.
That's when she put her hand to her cheek. "Ara ara, it seems as though there's more to him than we thought! This little game of cat and mouse is going to be amusing.~" With that said she went after him. However as she flew by a ramen stand Issei poked his head out. He then wiped his head of sweat when he didn't see anyone around.
Phew I managed to lose her for now. Now let's see the house is down this street to the right an-
"Got you Hyoudou san!" looking over Issei saw Kiba speeding towards him.
Ddraig I told you to warn me!
{Sorry but he saw you before he got too close for me to sense!} Issei snorted at this answer.
Some heavenly dragon you are!
{Hey be nice here. I managed to warn you of that creepy girl right?} Sighing because he knew that was true Issei quickly ran away once again. Despite being surprised at his speed Kiba didn't falter. Eventually seeing a ladder that went up the side of a building, the dragon user ran to it and started climbing. Temporarily losing track of him Kiba stopped and looked around.
Looking up he could see Issei running and jumping across the roof tops. Scowling he started to make his way after him by using his supernatural abilities. After having made it to the roofs he started after him again.
Eventually Akeno spotting them also made her way up. But that was when Issei ran out of roofs. Leading to the other two to finally catch up with him, all three of them were panting a bit from the chase.
Composing herself Akeno spoke first. "Alright then Hyoudou kun, just give up now. You really don't have anywhere else to go here. We can avoid violence if you just come with us quietly." She then gave a sadistic smile before lifting her hand; however her hand was now covered in lightning. "However I'm fine with bringing you back unconscious~."
Sweat dropping a bit Issei answered her. "Okay three things, one you sound way too happy about that. Two! I don't have to say anything to you guys! You're not my boss; I haven't made a ruckus… Well mostly. And third! You two don't scare me nearly as much as what my actual boss would do to me if I'm caught! They'll already be mad enough that this situation happened in the first place!" That was certainly true. Sighing Kiba summoned a two edged longsword and brought it up into a stance.
Okay if I remember correctly Rodrick said that he had the sacred gear {Sword Birth}. Umm Ddraig do you remember the specifics?
{You should try and remember these things partner. Any way it allows the user to summon any type of demonic sword the user can imagine.} Issei mentally nodded his head at that. He then turned his attention towards Akeno. He could already tell her specialty was magic. He planned to take her out first. So getting into a fighting stance himself he summoned the {BoostedGear}. The sacred gear was crimson in color and resembled a dragons arm. It was slightly bulky but had claw like fingers and a green gem in the center of it. It was definitely different than Rodrick's {Dragon Gear}.
However summoning it surprised the other two, especially when they heard a sound from it.
{Boost!} However before he could charge at them, he felt a familiar pain. Clutching his head he turned around to see an amused Rodrick. The {Boosted gear} quickly disappeared from his arm. Gulping he waved nervously at his king.
"Well hey there… What brings you out here captain? Hehehe…" The other two were just as surprised as Issei was. Rodrick turned to them and addressed them.
"One moment please. I'll deal with you two in a minute. But right now I need to have a discussion with a certain pawn of mine." That made both of their eyes go wide open. Akeno then sucked in some air from her teeth.
"Ah I see you I'm guessing Hyoudou kuns apart of your peerage then?" Rodrick nodded at her before turning back to Issei who was trying to sneak away.
That's not good; Buchou was trying to recruit Hyoudou Kun. It is quite an insult and considered very bad conduct to try and take someone else's peerage member. However I can't feel anything from either of these two. Looking closely at the two while Rodrick was berating Issei she noticed two identical rings that gave off a weird feeling.
"I see so that's how they hid their auras!" Kiba turned towards her confused.
"What do you mean by that Akeno san?" Turning towards him she elaborated.
"You see those rings? Well they make the person wearing them seem as human as possible. It's probably why we never thought of them as anything else but humans. However now we know they are devils. And Hyoudou Kun's Dragon aura makes since now that we know he has the {Boosted Gear}."
"Actually that's not entirely accurate." Looking over at Rodrick who was now in front of a thoroughly scolded Issei. "You are only right on the account that Issei has the {Boosted Gear}. Everything else is quite wrong. But I'll answer that later, for now go and tell Gremory that I'll be meeting with her tomorrow. Also bring along Souna san, I'm sure she'll be interested as well." He then sighed a bit. "Also tell Gremory that Koneko will be living with us from now on. But please for the love of everything… tell her it was her and Ophis' idea not mine."
With that he took out what looked like a sapphire key. Focusing some draconic energy on it, his crest appeared below him before he and Issei both teleported.
Just blinking in surprise Akeno recovered first. "Buchou's not going to like this very much." Kiba just nodded his head in agreement.
The next day early in the morning, Rodrick woke up to a different scene than what he's used to. Sure Ophis was still asleep on his right side, but… Koneko was asleep on his left.
Heh didn't actually think they were quite that serious about this. Shaking his head he lightly woke both of them up with some head petting. Both stretching and yawning cutely he kissed them both on the forehead. Ophis was still in her regular night gown while Koneko wore an almost identical one. Only it was a light blue in color. The night before was interesting when he introduced everyone and explained the situation.
So far the plan was to just let Sakuya, Issei, Koneko, and Ophis join him for the meeting. Although Koneko going was a given since she's apart of Rias's peerage. Rodrick was actually wondering if he could trade for her.
Meh probably not, the Gremory's were always clingy when it came to their servants. Too bad with her apart of my peerage I could help her even more. Breakfast ended up being a bit more difficult, since he now had to prepare twice as much food. Everyone ended up watching as the three smallest people in the house devoured their meals. A single thought ran through the heads men.
Just where do they put it all?! After breakfast they quickly got ready for school. On the way over Ophis held Rodrick's right arm while Koneko held his left. He was lucky that the two forgot about the topic of who's "first" from yesterday. At least for now that is, however the rumor mill skyrocketed as the three of them entered through the schools gates. The girls were all squealing while the guys asked for his head on a spike. Needless to say the guys stopped at the glare they received from the pseudo dragon.
Luckily the school day passed without incident. However all of them noticed some stares from the devils wandering around. In fact they had tried getting them to come at lunch but… Ophis and Koneko told them off since they quote… ""We want our Rodrick Kun's cooking"" unquote. It was pretty simple reasoning all things considered but no one wanted to argue. That had made Kiba who had come to get them quite confused. When he told Rias about it well…
"I knew it! He's trying to take my adorable rook from me!" Now while that was actually kind of true, the other two sweat dropped since… well she only found out about him having a peerage yesterday. So in actual reality she had no way of knowing that. However Akeno came up with a different opinion.
"Well I find it nice that she found someone she can truly open up to~."Kiba nodded his head in agreement while Rias just huffed. However if one were to look they could see a bit of sadness in her eyes.
Why? Why can't she show her true self to me? It was an upsetting thought for the red haired heiress. After all she had been trying to get the younger girl to open up to herself and the others. Yet in the span of a few months, this unknown boy has managed to do what she's been attempting to do for years. The shear thought of it grated on her nerves and flared her jealousy. But she had enough sense to refrain from doing anything, if only for her rook's sake. Well at least for now that is. In other words Rias was just waiting for boy to mess up somewhere. When that happened the heiress planned on coming down on him like a sledge hammer.
She couldn't help but grin at that though as she waited. When it finally came around for the meeting, Rias was just jittery with anticipation. Her anticipation however went unnoticed by Rodrick. If only because he was focused on Sona whom he saw didn't bring anyone.
So it was understandably his first question to her. "You know I thought you would've brought your peerage here Kaichou?" Sona shrugged before answering.
"Well this room would have been too small to support all of us. So I decided to just come here myself. Besides it's not like you're planning anything." Rodrick just nodded his head in agreement before sitting down. Not too long after both Ophis and Koneko went over and sat on his lap. They snuggled into him while physically moving his arms around their waists. Everyone stared at that for a bit before sitting down themselves. Although before she sat down Sakuya changed into her maid outfit. That caused everyone but the dragon group to stare. They way she dressed reminded them of a certain ultimate queen.
However for some reason that she couldn't quite fathom. Seeing Koneko and Ophis sit on Rodrick's lap like that angered Sona. Not only that but she felt a shred of jealousy. But she couldn't think of any reason as to why she would be. Thankfully Sona ignored those feelings and focused on Rodrick as he cleared his throat.
"So I guess you want to know some things right?" Rias and Sona nodded their heads. "Well here's how this will go, you can ask only one question at a time. That way there won't be any confusion. However I will let you know now that there are some things I can't talk about. If only because certain people would "kill" me if I did. Hopefully this doesn't change anything between us." He looked at Sona when he said that, seeing that Sona asked the first one.
"Don't worry as long as you're not causing trouble things should be fine. On the same subject are you here to cause an incident?"
Rodrick smiled before answering the question. "No I'm not here to cause any trouble in your ladies territory. In fact the only reason why we're here in the first place; was because my mother, her friend, and a few others wanted me to finish my education. I will say I resisted quite a bit at the thought of going back to school. No offense to the school or anything it's just that I already know more than most teachers. And I kind of already had a job so I didn't quite see the point." Nodding her head Sona accepted the answer. However she decided to have something clarified.
"Who exactly is your mother then? I know for a fact that there's no "Booker" pillar in the underworld." He laughed a bit at that before answering.
"Well she isn't my mother birth mother. Rather my adopted mother, as for identity… Well she wants to keep that a surprise. She's quite eccentric sometimes you know? Something I'm sure you can understand." At this a cloud of depression came over both his and Sona's heads. Smiling nervously Rias decided to quickly change subjects.
"So who's actually a part of your peerage?" At that Rodrick started to quickly list them off.
"Well there's Sakuya here who's my queen. Issei over there is my pawn who took four pieces, and then there's Mittelt my rook. Ryu's also my knight, and I have a bishop who lives in Kyoto with my mother." She nodded her head before she realized something.
"Wait than what about Ophis and Red? Those two always hang around you guys. Are they not part of your peerage?" Rodrick snorted at that.
"Hell no! There are no pieces in existence that can work on these two. I'd think you'd realize that by now." Rias looked at him confused.
"What do you mean by that? Surely eight pawns or a couple of mutation pieces would work." Everyone on Rodrick's side, including Koneko actually laughed at this.
"I can't believe you haven't figured it out yet! I mean their names are dead give a ways. You see Ophis is the Ophis, and Red is the Great Red." At that everyone on the devil's side except Koneko looked at Ophis in shock.
"What are the two strongest beings in the world doing here!?" While Sona was a bit calmer about things, Rias was freaking out a bit; especially at Koneko's lack of reaction to the news.
Rodrick however just shrugged. "They follow me around and wanted to attend school. It helped that Red's Mittelt's boyfriend and Ophis is my girlfriend. As for Ophis she wanted to see what human school was like." Ophis nodded her head at that.
"I've enjoyed it so far. Besides now I have a lot of friends. It's definitely different then people freaking out whenever my name was mentioned. In fact I rather like it, so I would appreciate it if you didn't do just that." Rias now calmed down and cleared her throat. Though she still wondered how Rodrick and Mittelt managed to woo the two dragon gods.
But deciding they probably wouldn't tell her. Rias asked a different question. "Alright that's fair enough… I guess… Ahem. Anyway a few more questions, so what exactly happened last Sunday?" When asked this Rodrick adopted a smug smile.
"Well you see the fallen angel named Raynare tried to kill Issei. However instead we turned the tables and captured her. We were able to work things out and they'll leave as soon as a Nun arrives. Just so you know she is excommunicated for some reason, and I will be taking her in." Rias raised an eyebrow but didn't comment.
"Alright now this questions a bit more personal, why is Koneko sitting on your lap?" At that Rodrick chuckled nervously, while said Koneko snuggled deeper.
"Well you see Ophis had already told her about us a while ago. But she promised not to tell anyone. As for why she's on my lap… Well I can't deny her cuteness and she and Ophis have agreed to share me. And I had unknowingly agreed last week." At this Rias looked a bit upset. There were a lot of questions she wanted to ask about what Rodrick just said.
Instead she asked the one which she thought as most important. "Koneko why would you lie to me? Don't you know that keeping secrets like this could be disastrous?" The white haired girl actually looked both a little sad, and scared for how she disappointed her king.
"I'm sorry Buchou but I promised to keep it a secret. I didn't tell Rodrick that I knew until about yesterday as well. So please… Please forgive me!" She tried bowing a bit but her position made it difficult. However Rias felt rather guilty now that she saw how sorry she was. However a tick mark and anger soon replaced that guilt. For Rodrick started to pet the Nekoshou on the head. This caused Koneko to perk up and relax. However everyone could see the happy face she now had.
That and everyone could hear the slight purring. This made Akeno exclaim something about how cute it was, however she too had a question.
"Alright enough about that, I have something to ask." Rodrick turned his attention towards her. "Yesterday you said I was only right about you being a king, and Issei Kun holding the {Boosted Gear}. What exactly did you mean by that?" Sighing he answered her.
"Well all of us aren't devils. You see two years ago me, Beelzebub, and Azazel got together for a little project." All of their eyes widened when they heard that. "You see since I wasn't a devil and were incapable of becoming one, we decided to try and create something else for me to use. We knew that my job was tough. So I'd need an extra bit of help to do the things it required. Unfortunately it took about two hundred guinea pigs to finally get the thing to work." Kiba interrupted at that.
"Wait guinea pigs?" Rodrick pursed his lips but still nodded. Everyone may have scooted a bit further away from him at that answer.
"Hey now! It was Azazel's idea to use the rodents as test subjects! Anyway we ended up creating what we dubbed the draconic piece system. It's a nifty little thing that gives those who use it their king's longevity and energy. While at the same time allowing them to keep their original species. For example if I was to use a rook piece on Koneko she'd return to being full Nekoshou. While also having the added bonus of using draconic energy; however that's only because of me. If you were to use the same piece she'd instead still have demonic energy." They seemed rather intrigued by the pieces however Rias didn't like how he used Koneko as an example.
"Do they have any other uses?" Sona already seeing the advantages of the new pieces was excited by them.
Rodrick smiled in her direction. "Sharp as always Kaichou, but to answer your question they have two more uses. One's however a rather long term project. The first benefit is that there's no mutation pieces, all of them are worth a little more than twice a regular evil piece. Originally we tried to make it three times stronger but… The guinea pigs kept exploding." At that everyone who didn't know beforehand gave varying faces of worry, disgust, or just plain horror. Seeing this Rodrick laugh nervously.
"Yeah we ended up going through about fifty of them. In reality the pieces are worth about two and a quarter of the original system. The second long term is more of a goal than anything else. You see eventually Beelzebub was planning to replace the evil pieces with these. But that's not for a long time, and so far I have the only working set." Sona looked rather excited about the prospect of this new system. Always thinking that the evil piece system was a little too forceful, Rias however looked a bit concerned.
"Will those who already have evil pieces have them confiscated?" Much to her relief Rodrick shook his head.
"Don't worry too much about that. Those who want to keep the evil pieces may, but anyone new to high-class society will be given the new pieces." Rias nodded her head in understanding.
"Alright that's nice to know. Anyway what did you mean by you are incapable of being reincarnated?" At that Rodrick tried to scratch his chin in thought but the two on his lap gave him a look. Taking that as a sign he laughed nervously and instantly stopped trying.
"Whipped." Issei had tried to mutter that under his breath but with their enhanced hearing it was just loud enough. Turning to Sakuya he motioned his head towards Issei. Understanding what he meant, she came up behind him and hit him with her iron Tessen. Glaring at both of them a bit he grumbled but didn't say anything. Sighing heavily Rodrick finally answered Rias' question.
"Well to be honest I'm just too strong to be made a devil; no matter how many pieces or mutated pieces you use. You see I'm already on par with Leviathan Sama. That coupled with my sacred gear and ancient sentient blade just doesn't make it possible. In fact while using balance breaker I'm as strong as your brother Sirzechs." He said that with some malice added to the name, but no one noticed because all they heard was how strong he was. Rias and Sona were personally gaping at him.
"You proclaim to be as strong as a Maou?!" Looking at Rias he just shrugged.
"Yeah well when you train with Ophis and Red you happen to get rather strong." Begrudgingly they accepted that, although they kept glancing at Ophis sitting on Rodrick's lap.
Most of them still couldn't believe that Ophis the infinity dragon was currently sitting there. She was also sharing it with Koneko of all people! Although… they all had to agree that the two seemed quite alike. Both of them are less than five feet tall, both love food and sweets, both have the same expressions, and they both like the same guy. It seems as though surrealism adopted a new standard. Trying her hardest to shake off the surprise, Sona asked a question that lay heavily on their minds.
"Booker san, what exactly are you?" Attention quickly headed back towards the universe hopper, only stopping until it practically ran him over. Seeing the very strong looks of curiosity he sweat dropped a bit.
"Sheesh, I don't see why this is such a big deal. But I guess I can tell you what I am. You see I'm a hybrid between a dragon and a human. Although to be honest I'm not exactly certain why that is. It's one of the few things the tech group, that's what me, Azazel, and Beelzebub like to call ourselves by the way, are trying to discover. So far all we know is that it had something to do with my sacred gear. {Dragon Gear} is its name, and it's truly is one of a kind. I can assure you won't find another sacred gear like it." What he said was one-hundred percent true. Especially since it was made for a rather specific purpose.
"Alright are there any more questions?" Looking around he saw that Rias had something to say. "If you have a question Gremory, then I suggest you ask lest you lose this opportunity." Blinking in surprise she quickly composed herself.
"Alright, I think most questions will be satisfied after this. Okay so when you first enrolled here both Leviathan Sama, and Beelzebub Sama. Wanted you to attend this school, however my own brother Lucifer Sama did not. I now understand why Beelzebub Sama was fine with it. But I want to know about the other two." Rodrick grimaced at that a bit.
"Well you see the Leviathan was the friend I mentioned before. While me and your brother have a mutual hate for each other." Everyone looked confused at that.
"Why would you and my brother hate each other? My brother's kind and you also like an okay guy… unless it has something to do with his more eccentric side than nevermind." Rodrick couldn't help but snort at Rias' comment but still shook his head before answering.
"Apparently you haven't figured it out yet. Let's just say it has something to do with me trying to uncover his more… darker works. I won't exactly say what because I don't want to ruin your image of him just yet. Plus I've yet to gather all the evidence I need." Rias was about to tell him off for insinuating anything bad about her brother but he cut her off.
"I don't want to hear anything about you defending him. When I gather the evidence needed I'll show you. Until then this matter is closed." Gently picking up Ophis and Koneko, he put them to the side as he got up and stretched.
"Now that will be all for now since I am quite busy as of this moment. I understandably need to prepare a few things for the next couple of days." Everyone nodded their heads at him, although Rias did it reluctantly. The hybrid then turned his attention towards the white haired girl.
"So Koneko are you staying here or coming back with us?" Thinking for a bit she turned towards her master.
"Is it alright Buchou?" Sighing while rubbing her temples she nodded her consent.
"It's fine, however…" She narrowed her gaze at Rodrick. "If you try to do anything she doesn't want, I'll personally blow you away!" Seeing how he had no plans for either of his girls yet he took it in stride. But he was also calm because she couldn't hurt him even if she wanted to.
"I'm so grateful that you think so highly of me." His voice was dripped in sarcasm, which just made a tick mark appear on Rias's head. "Okay sarcasm aside, I wasn't planning on anything. Nor will I ever plan on anything until they are willing. But also not until we're a bit older, don't want anything happening yet after all." When he said that both of his girls looked happy yet a bit irritated. Looking at each other they nodded in a silent agreement. Since they were behind him Rodrick saw nothing. However everyone else saw it and looked a bit confused. All except for two that is. Rias looked with narrowed eyes while Sona looked a little peeved. She looked even more so when the two clung onto his arms.
"Well it's nice talking to you all, we'll see you at school tomorrow." Everyone waved goodbye to each other except Rias who gave an impassive stare. After his group left Rias sighed in annoyance.
"Now we'll have to deal with this guy. ARGH! I won't allow him to take my rook away from me!" She then went on a rant about him corrupting her, and harming her in different ways. While her peerage tried to calm her down Sona was thinking about the way she felt.
Why do I feel this way when those three are together? At the sound of a crash her thoughts became interrupted as she turned around. Her eyebrow twitching at the scene of Rias having a bookshelf on top of her.
Shaking her head she left the clubroom as the others began to help Rias up.
Fun fact one: Hosted by Shadow the Darkwraith
Shadow is seen wearing his usual outfit consisting of a pitch black cloak covering everything but his eyes, feet, and hands. On his hands are silver gauntlets, and on his feet are silver plated boots. There is also a yardstick in his right hand a controller in his left hand. The room he is in is a theater with a white sheet acting as a screen with a projector at the far back of the room. He then clears his throat and talks towards the audience while peering at them with his yellow and black eyes.
"Hello my name is Shadow. If any of you follow any of my creators stories than you'd know me from the Tales of the Dark Guard. Or any other story now I guess… I've become a rather famous individual in these stories. However for today I'm here to give some little tidbits of information. Today I'll be talking about the origin of Kuros Wik Suun. Which is Voidric for…White Black Sun." Pressing a button on the remote a picture shows up on screen.
The picture is of a large black and white dragon. The top part of its head down to its jaw line was white. And coming from it a white stripe went down its back all the way to its blade like tail end. The dragons underbelly was also white, along with its claws and the membranes of its wings. Everything else was pitch black.
However the dragon's eyes were two different colors. The right eye was blue on white, and the left was red on black. The dragon also had two thin horns pointing away from its head, and coming out from the base of its skull.
"This dragon right here is the Kuros from the Tales of the Dark Guard. Yes we currently have two Kuros' running around. This one was trained alongside Bladedancer or Neos Drakon Goodwitch, by Yukari Yakumo. The Youkai of boundaries, this was after he hatched when he was found by Bladedancer and his apprentice Gravelord. If this Kuros who's apart of this story is the same one or not, well that'll be answered later." Another button press and it switches to the {Dragon Gear}.
"When this story's Kuros was sealed into a sacred gear, he retained all of his powers. This was because he did it voluntarily, and was still alive when sealed. As such there were no restrictions placed on him. The idea was for him to eventually come back with a user and well… You'll see soon enough." One last button press and the screen turns blank.
"Well that's about everything for now, we'll discuss his actual sacred gear as Rodrick uses it more. As for the next fun fact section we over here at Dark Guard productions ask that you ask us what you want to know next. That way things which seem confusing to you can be answered directly."
Shadow then looks at a clock inside the room. "Well now that seems like all the time we have for today. And so I've been your host Shadow the Darkwraith." He then bowed as all the lights turn off.
Slayer: There was have it! Sorry it took so long to come out with this. But we were changing up a lot of dialogue.
Judan: Yeah I kind of had trouble deciding on what I should do. I mean I did a lot of edits for this story already. But I really wanted to fix it up.
Shadow: I think it turned out nicely.
Argentum: Yes quite a bit of improvement from the last version.
Issei: I like how I'm not as unintentionally bashed this time around.
Slayer: Yeah that was a bit of an issue last time. But glad it's over now.
Judan: Yeah well I was still rather new to this. But in any case how about you send us off Issei?
Issei: Sure! Now this has been a Dark Guard production now signing off!
Everyone: Goodbye!
