OH MY GOD...THIS CHAPTER IS ONE! I NEED A BREAK! Enjoy Some additions to Sephiroth VS Vergil.
Oh and to Shigeraki...

KISS MY ASS!
After the viewing of the battle, The ORC plus Azaezel had retreated to experiment with Gasper's new form. As it turns out, they found out a few things about it.
First of all, it took a lot of time and energy to bring out the form and when it ran out, Gasper was pretty much left defenceless, so he needed to time it just right to unleash the form when needed.
Secondly, the Tempus Dracule form was as the Showman said: In the form, Gasper saw everything moving slowly, even Kiba at his fastest, so he could intercept everyone's attacks just as they came into contact
The next thing was that Gasper was faster so he could strike before they could land a hit. Issei found that out as his head was currently planted in the earth.
Finally, those claws of Gasper were strong enough to cut through Issei's balance breaker armour so they were additional weapons to the dhamphir in close quarters. Right now the only thing they were training Gasper in were his mana reserves and CQC.
"OK, so now we know about this new form and what it needs to be done.' Azazel spoke, looking from his magazine. 'All that is left is to train Gasper in his mana reserves and how to brawl."
"We really need to thank Showman for helping Gasper" Rias said, with everyone nodding in agreement.
"Why thank you, Rias" he said, causing everyone to whip their heads around and notice Showman looking at them. This time, he wore a white T-Shirt and black jeans plus blue trainers.
"Showman, what the hell are you doing here?" Issei asked
"Came to see how Gasper is handling his new form. Also, I figured it was time for you to watch the next battle." He said as everyone perked up
"Alright! Which battle will we see next?" Issei asked as he grinned in joy.
"Well come on down, Dragon Perv and we'll get started. I already got the rest of the guests in my dimension." he said as he readied the jump to his dimension. With a flash, they were gone.
After the jump, they all saw the rest of the audience from before. Rias immediately gulped when Sirzechs came barreling towards her like a bat out of hell, pun intended.
"RIIIAAASSSS-TAN! I MISSED YOU!" He shouted as he began to squeeze the life out of Rias, much to her annoyance.
"It's only been a day!" She said as she tried to escape his grasp.
"A day too long!" He declared, nuzzling her much to her embarrassment.
While everyone was busy finding this amusing, Grayfia decided that it was time to stop messing around and grabbed Sirzechs by his cheek
"OW! OW! GWAYFIA! THA' HURTS!" He whined in pain
"As amusing as this is, my king don't we have something to do?" She said sternly.
"The Maid MILF is right, Kingy. We have another battle to watch and a peerage member to train up." Showman commented, as everyone took their seats, snacks ready to eat.
"Now Gasper, since we did you first, you get to spin the wheel for the next battle! So come on down and SPIN! THAT! WHEEL" he spoke in a gameshow host voice, much to the deadpan stares of everyone.
"OK, I've been watching too many gameshows…" He said as he drooped down.
Gasper walked up to the wheel, eyes filled with determination.
"Here we go!" Gasper said as spun the wheel.
The wheel began to spin as it slowed down until it reached

Akeno 1
"Oh my? Is it my turn?" Akeno asked with a smile on her face
"Come on down, Ms S&M, And let's see the trailer" Shoeman declared.
Soon everyone got into position and the trailer began
The screen was black until music was heard
(Cue Final Fantasy 7 Remake OST: One Winged Angel)
It then revealed the figure being a tall, pale-skinned male with long silver hair, dressed in black. In his hand was a long sword and a pair of wings were stuck out of his back, black as the night. Soon, it showed him fighting another figure that wielded a large sword.
ANGELS NEVER LAUGH...
The next figure was a white haired male in blue. The audience then saw him battle with a katana and a familiar face. Dante. The two were in a rainstorm, slicing the water droplets at blinding speed.
...BUT DEVILS NEVER CRY!
Soon the screen began shifting between the two with the long-haired individual standing tall, impaling the blonde swordsman on his sword, while the man in blue was brawling against a beast.
LET THE DUEL BETWEEN THE ANGELS OF DARKNESS BEGIN!
Soon, the sword clashed in a split screen, with the name of the fight shown in large, grey Times New ROman text
SEPHIROTH VS VERGIL
Much like the last trailer, everyone was hooked. But Azazel looked at the name in shock.
"Sephiroth?! That name...where have I heard it before?" he thought to himself.
Micheal noticed this and decided to ask
"Azazel? What's wrong?" he asked.
"That name. Sephiroth. I feel like I heard it somewhere before...but I don't know where? I need to check something after this to see if I am right."
Meanwhile with Akeno.
"So I am going to take inspiration from this battle?"
"To quote Team Rocket's Meowth… "Thhhaaaaaat's RIGHT!' But enough moping around. Let's start the battle!"
He hit play.
(*Cues: Invader - Jim Johnston*)
Wiz: If there is one thing humanity wants, it is power.
Boomstick: And to these silver-haired swordsmen, you can never have too much power, even if you are the most powerful enemy in the world.
Wiz: Sephiroth, the fearsome One-Winged Angel of Final Fantasy.
Boomstick: And Vergil, the half-demon Son of Sparda from Devil May Cry. He's Wiz & I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... a Death Battle.
"So.' Kiba said with interest. 'A battle between two silver-haired swordsmen? How come me and Xenovia weren't chosen for this battle?"
"Combatants suit her better." Showman replied.
Wiz: Through the millennia, legends were passed of a source of unlimited energy: the Promised Land. Unfortunately, all hope of finding this sacred ground had been lost.
"So it is like the holy lands like Baylon or El Dorado?" Issei asked
"Pretty much, kid." Azazel replied
Boomstick: So kinda like El Dorado or Shambala?
Wiz: Pretty much. But soon that all changed one day. The Shinra Electric Power Company excavated the remains of a being believed to hail from the very land they sought.
"OK...something tells me that this won't be good." Millicas said
"I agree. If powerful companies in games have one thing in common, it is they will always try and wield powers beyond their control." Issei said, causing everyone to look at him weirdly.
"What? I read more than hentai you know?"
Boomstick: They called this weird, naked, purple lady Jenova and thought that if they could bring her back to life, she could help them find the Promised Land. But apparently, they just didn't have any Phoenix Downs.
When Issei and Azazel looked at Jenova, they only have one thing to say:
"Meh. I've seen better." Issei said
"Not much to look at." Azazel replied.
Showman decided to pause the video.
"Hold up. You ain't gonna make a pervy comment?!" Showman said incredulously.
"Please. I make one and you'll probably pummel me. Besides, this chick isn't exactly a cute loli or a voluptuous bombshell. Frankly, she creeps me out." Issei said
"Like I said. Not much to look at." Azazel replied.
Showman decided to resume and play the video.
Wiz: If they couldn't resurrect a being who could lead them to the Promised Land, Shinra decided they would simply create their own. After many experiments in fusing Jenova's cells with those of a human, they finally found their savior. His name was Sephiroth.
They were soon shown the figure. Standing tall with a long mane of white hair and piercing blue eyes and dressed in black, all the girls immediately felt hot as they saw the looks he had.
Meanwhile, all of the boys began to feel envy. Issei was even muttering about pretty boys and how it isn't fair.
"Since when were you all into bad boys?" Showman muttered to himself
Boomstick: With hair like that, it's no wonder he was created in a lab! Look at how majestic that mane is.
Background
Height: 6'1'' | 185 cm
Weight: approx. 165 lbs | 75 kg
Age: 27 years old (Sirzechs: Damn, that's young)
AKA the One-Winged Angel (Micheal: Why do I feel chills from that title?)
1st Class SOLDIER
Hero of the Wutai War
Ambidextrous
Voiced by the bass singer of NSYNC. No, really
Wiz: According to Final Fantasy lore, Sephiroth has to use an entire bottle of shampoo and conditioner every single time he bathes.
Boomstick: Why do you know that? Did you join his fan club or something?
"Why yes, Wiz? Are we expecting there to be a gay awakening?" AKeno said teasingly, causing everyone to laugh.
Wiz: Uh, for research!
Boomstick: Not buying it
"Well, I can't blame you. After all, Sephiroth is handsome…" Rias also teased.
Issei was worried that he may lose Rias to the angel but...he realised he was a video game character.
Wiz: It's true! Anyways... Shinra wasn't interested in Sephiroth for his hair; instead, he was an essential part of their SOLDIER program.
"Hold it. How does an electric company have a private army?" Issei asked in confusion
"They must be REALLY powerful if they have such resources on their hands." Rias said with a thoughtful look.
Boomstick: Wait, wait. This electric company has their own private military? I'd hate to miss a payment with those guys. Especially if they sent Seph after me. I mean, look at the ridiculously long sword he keeps with him!
Kiba's and Xenovia's eyes widened at the size of the blade. It looked
"Majestic…" They droned as they saw the sword in question.
"That is one powerful looking blade. That long silver blade and the black handle. You would need to be using both hands if you want to wield that." Azazel spoke, eying the blade
Arsenal
Masamune
- Length: 7'2'' | 218 cm
- 255 Hit Rate and 99 Attack Power
- 100% chance of critical hit
Gold Armlet
- Boosts Defense
Tough Ring
- Boosts vitality and spirit
Boomstick: That's his Masamune. This seven-foot-two behemoth of a blade is a lot like the Nodachi swords they used back in Feudal Japan. But instead of wielding something long with two hands like those, Sephiroth only needs one. Just to show how much of a badass he is.
Wiz: He also has a golden armlet and a tough ring to help with his defence and spirit. But they don't even matter when you look at his effectiveness as a warrior.
Boomstick: Yeah, you know when people spread legends of someone, they usually make him out to be even better than he really is? It's the total opposite with Sephiroth.
Wiz: With his superhuman speed, strength, and durability, Sephiroth was instrumental in ensuring Shinra's victory in the Wutai war, conquering the last free nation on the planet; he returned home a legend.
"Like the heroes of old." Sirzechs muttered whimsically as he and Serafall got nostalgia from the end of the devil war.
Boomstick: But all those warm, fuzzy feelings of victory didn't last long. While on a mission to the town of Nibelheim, Sephiroth found a bunch of books on the Jenova project. That's when he discovered he was a secret science project the whole time.
Issei let out a wince at that.
"Yeah...something tells me Sephiroth will have a mind snap any minute."
Rias nodded her head. "Yeah. That can't be good when you realise your life is a lie."
Wiz: The truth crushed Sephiroth and drove him mad. In a rage, he annihilated Nibelheim, but was stopped by a mercenary named Cloud Strife. Sephiroth was impaled by the Buster Sword and fell... to his death.
Everyone looked in horror at the burning town. Thousands of innocent lives...lost to his madness.
"My god…" IRina said as she began to mentally pray for the people. Yes, they weren't real but…
"An entire town...up in flames…" Rias said in horror.
"This is something the Old Devil Faction would be pleased with doing…" Sirzechs muttered as memories of those devils came to mind.
The scene shifted to the scene where Sephiroth got impaled, causing everyone to wince.
"Oooooo… Talk about being a shish kebab…" Issei muttered.
Wiz: In fact, not wanting to be found out, Shinra declared Sephiroth Killed in Action. Guess they were determined not to have his image tarnished
Boomstick: Oh. Well, that's disappointing... which is what I would've said, if Sephiroth hadn't been dropped into a hole in the ground that led him to the giant Windows screensaver called the Lifestream.
"The life what-now?" Akeno said in confusion.
"Watch the video and you'll find out." Showman said.
Wiz: The Lifestream is a buried river of energy which basically maintains life across the planet. Normally merging with the Lifestream is the equivalent of entering the afterlife, but not for Sephiroth.
Boomstick: And this is where things get weird, so buckle up! Still conscious, Sephiroth's essence floated through the Lifestream for years until he absorbed enough energy to rebuild his body. With the energy of the Lifestream, he can control other beings with Jenova cells. (Millicas: So, like a puppet master)
Wiz: Including the corpse of Jenova, who he manipulated like a puppet and disguised as himself.
"WHAT?!" Everyone yelled in shock and disgust
Boomstick: Oh, what the hell! That's his mom!? Who would do that to their own mom!? I mean, I know she's a genocidal alien monster, but c'mon! She probably makes a good breakfast...
"Bring a whole new meaning to the phrase, Oedipus Complex…" Issei shuddered
"I cannot believe he would do such a thing…" Micheal said in disgust. Everyone nodded in agreement, even the devils. They may be beings of sin...BUT THEY HAD STANDARDS!
"This man is really the embodiment of evil. How could a great hero fall into such disgrace?" Asia said as tears built up in her eyes
"You either die a hero...or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain' A quote that summarises him to a T." Showman said, with a pair of glasses on his face.

Wiz: But Sephiroth's descent into the Lifestream offered him even more. It transformed him from a mere super soldier into the most dangerous being on the planet. He's strong enough to throw a man hundreds of feet skyward, move at supersonic speeds, and withstand brutal stab wounds through vital organs.
"We know. We saw the stabbing." Koneko said in a deadpan tone
Boomstick: He's got illusion powers that can trick people by creating an entirely fake scenario. He can lift people with his mind, including himself, and then he can just fly! That's how it works, right?
Wiz: Plus, there are the techniques he can use. For this, we will avoid the Kingdom Hearts techniques as it is a different series.
"Wait. Kingdom Hearts? I love that game!" Millicas cried in joy.
"Me too! I love seeing those Hot Disney Princesses in their tight dresses!" Issei said with a slight perverted look. Luckily Rias managed to pull his ear.
"You saying that a Disney fluffball is prettier than me?" She said with a dark tone.
"No Ma'am…" She said in a muffled tone.
Wiz: Additionally, Sephiroth can cast magic thanks to his on hand Materia. Materia is crystalized life energy which grants different powers depending on the type of Materia used.
Materia
Fire - Performs Fire spells
Earth - Performs Earth spells
Lightning - Performs Lightning Spells
Ice - Performs Ice Spells
Revive - Can revive someone from defeat
Restore - Can heal himself
Black - Ultimate destruction Materia
Wiz: Materia is energy composed from the planet, each one having different elemental power
Boomstick: This lets Sephy attack with fire, lightning, ice, and earth-based magic. He can block attacks with Barrier and Reflect, and heal himself with Cure and Regen. And ever since jumping into the Lifestream, he's had unlimited access to his magical powers. But his deadliest is the black materia, which is destruction wrapped in a tiny sphere
Soon the audience saw the materia in action from the raging fires to the cold blizzards and the dangerous thunderstorms. Those are what caught Akeno's attention.
"Woah...Can I do that?" She said looking at her fingers
"Yeah. All you need is to train that Fallen Angel side of yers." Showman said with a shrug, causing her to whip around.
"How did you know?" She demanded.
Showman deadpanned. "Dimension walker. I saw your dimension and know about yer Daddy issues. You want my advice lady? TALK TO HIM. He may have a reason why he wasn't there when your mother got killed. Hell, you can't blame him when your shit family wanted your head on the chopping block."
Akeno was silent as she mulled over his words. Did her Father have a reason to not be there? It can't be...can it?
Wiz: Plus he had a lot of techniques to combat anyone that gets in his way. From The Draw Slash, which is a slashing projectile, the Heartless Angel which can reduce anyone to 1 HP and the Reaper, that allows Sephiroth to attack with a flurry of slashes. Plus, Heaven's Light which is an upward slash.
Boomstick: There is also the Sudden Cruelty, where he knocks an opponent back with two strikes in the air. Shadow Flare, which summons his own dark thugs to beat the shit out of anyone who tries to attack him, Oblivion which strikes anyone down from above, Godspeed where can strike anyone with air slashes, Octoslash strikes with eight chained slashes and Scintilla is a bladed counter attack. Holy HELL that's a lot of moves! I need a beer.
Everyone agreed and went to grab some cold drinks to cool their heads. Those WERE a lot of techniques.
"Man, that guy is ONE deadly swordfighter." Issei said, holding a coke in his hand.
"Perhaps we could use them for our own skills." Xenovia commented to Kiba, both holding water bottles in their hands.
"Maybe."
"Ummm...can I also use the restore spells?" Asia said in a soft voice, sipping some orange juice.
"Hey. I ain't complaining. I will be giving the personal training to Akeno, but I will leave you guys some gifts as well." Showman stated
Wiz: With his new godlike abilities, Sephiroth began a plan to stop mankind from drying up the planet's life force.
"Well that doesn't sound like a villainous thing…" Azazel spoke in a confused manner.
"MAybe there's more to it than that." Sirzechs said.
Boomstick: That's it? That doesn't sound so scary. Does that mean he's an environmentalist, or...?
Wiz: But to do this, he decided to use Black Materia to summon a giant meteor to destroy the planet and absorb all of its life energy for himself.
"Knew it!" Sirzechs said.
"So he wants to save the planet by killing all life. HOW IS THAT GOING TO SAVE THE PLANET?!" Bikou said as he began to scratch his head in annoyance
"That's the thing about lunatics. You can't question their sanity." Vali told his companion, though he did want to battle him if he was real.
Boomstick: So like, an opposite environmentalist. A planet vampire! I mean, we're talking about a guy who kicked a dude through solid concrete, murdered the crap out of a thirty-two foot serpent with a spike through the face, and tanked a dragon's flamethrower attack without even getting a teensy bit hurt.
Wiz: A particularly impressive feat considering this attack was capable of one-shotting fellow soldier Zack Fair.
Boomstick: Uh, Wiz? You might need to up your prescription, 'cause that's definitely Cloud.
Wiz: No no no, Cloud was just recalling false memories there, it was really Zack.
"Huh?" Everyone said in confusion.
"A case of Amnesia attack. Cloud thought he was his best friend and thought he went all sorts of missions." Showman stated, but everyone still looked confused
"Look, I didn't write the damn story, OK?! Blame the ones who did!"
Wiz (Cont.): However, it was Cloud who impaled Sephiroth pre-Lifestream with the Buster Sword.
Boomstick: And holy God, is it huge! It's like, two feet wide! You'd think a stab from that thing would just cut him in half, but Seph just kind of shook it off.
Everyone winced at the size of the wound. Boomstick was right. It did look like it would cut someone in half.
Wiz: And in his rematch with Cloud, he blocked an attack strong enough to crater the metal around him. Considering the diameter of the crater, the surface area of Sephiroth's feet, and assuming the most likely steel composition, I estimate this attack to equal nearly sixteen hundred tons of force.
Everyone then saw the feat happen as Sephiroth blocked a dive-bombing man, attacking with the buster sword. When the strike was blocked, metal ruptured around them.
"Woah. That is a lot of power to block." Kiba muttered and everyone agreed to that.
Wiz: And that was even said to not be Sephiroth's full power.
Feats
- Hero of the Wutai War
- Sliced through Mako cannons
- Tanked Genesis' fireballs
- Nearly destroyed the Planet
- Survived Buster Sword impalement
- Blocked a 1600 ton strike
- Defeated Zack, Genesis, Angeal, Tifa
- Got killed... but then got better!
Boomstick: Sephiroth can use that wicked sword to stab and lift wannabe heroes by their rib cage, slice through skyscrapers, and shoot energy beams that can shred these huge Mako Cannons. And from the Lifestream, Sephy figured out he could create new bodies or even take on other forms.
Forms
Bizarro Sephiroth
- First Form
- Allows his body parts to move on their own
- The left limb absorbs Fire and Earth magic
- The right limb absorbs Ice and Lightning magic
- The Core is immune to all attacks until the limbs are defeated, Core also heals the Torso
- While his limbs can use powerful magic, they have low HP
Safer-Spehiroth
- Sephiroth's Final Form
- Can fly, rendering melee attacks useless
- Attacks KO or leave a status
Powers:
+Wall - creates a protective barrier around the user
+DeSpell - removes positive status enhancements from the party, not always guaranteed to work
+Deen - basically just bitch-slaps the player with his wings
+Pale Horse - Turns enemies into animals, like frogs
+Break - Causes paralysis by dropping a giant rock on your head. Has a chance of missing
+Shadow Flare - attacks with orbs made of darkness
Wiz: These forms greatly resemble certain creatures found in Christian and Jewish mythology. With Bizzaro-Sephiroth, he is based on the Kabbalah in terms of its limbs being sentient, similar to the Manifestations of God with his summons
Boomstick: He certainly looks the part when he goes into his ultimate form.
Wiz: That's his Safer-Sephiroth form, where he greatly resembles a seraph from the heavens.
The heaven faction soon felt their breaths hitch at the sight of the two forms, specifically, Safer-Sephiroth. The picture of the giant figure as they saw a human male mix with a cloud that had a light wing shooting from it along with the black wing extending from his back. The fact that there were halos behind him made them realise something: This was a being of both darkness and heaven.
"Oh my god...He looks like a Seraph…" Irina said, as she shook from fear. The fact that Safer-Sephiroth was standing above the clouds made her feel rather scared.
"An angel that will destroy the world...He is like an omen for the day of judgement…" Micheal stuttered, sweating a lot.
"Which means, if he were ever to come here...we won't be able to survive the confrontation…" Gabriel added.
As for the rest of the crowd, they were silent as they felt fear build up. HEre was a literal angelic threat but this one had the power to back it up.
"If I were to go Juggernaut Drive...I don't think that would be enough to wreck him…" Issei whispered in fear
"I agree…" Vali answered, both uneasy and excited at the site
"Let's just hope he isn't real." Rias said.
Azazel was currently thinking.
"Seriously... Where the hell have I heard that name from?"
Wiz: Regardless, Sephiroth does possess a single black wing, a blatant symbol of his fall from grace. (Azazel: A true Fallen Angel…)
Boomstick: So, basically Final Fantasy does everything it can to not be subtle, just like Sephiroth's most devastating attack: Supernova, which decimates an entire solar system!
Wiz: Or Meteor, which literally summons a meteor from the sky. Truly someone that is an unstoppable force.
Wait, if Seph is that powerful, how does anyone ever beat him?
Wiz: Don't get the wrong idea here. There's a lot of debate over how Supernova actually works, but I think it's pretty clear that Sephiroth isn't creating the explosion himself. Rather, he's transporting his foes to a specific point in time within an alternate dimension.
Boomstick: Careful Wiz, don't sell him short.
Wiz: Just look at it! When he uses the attack, reality literally crumbles away like glass. This is identical to the animation for certain Summon creatures. According to the Official Crisis Core complete guide, Summons draw their targets into their own space in order to attack, and this is no different. In the Dissidia fighting games, Sephiroth goes for the simple approach and opens a dimensional hole to the explosion. The attack is even described as sending "destruction even into other dimensions." And if he could summon planet-busting meteors at will, why did he go through so much trouble to get the Black Materia, which literally summons meteors?
"OK, Let's vote. If we see this guy...we try to ambush him?" Sirzechs said with a smile that said: We are in deep shit.
"Agreed."
Boomstick: That would explain why the Supernova doesn't hurt him. He's not really there, just using those illusion powers of his. With all these powers, I can't believe Cloud and his friends were able to take him down.
Wiz: Well, his biggest weakness is the fact he is arrogant and insane, so he can be blindsided, like how Cloud stabbed him with the Buster Sword. He's not invincible, but he's damn powerful. Ever persistent, Sephiroth departed with a final, chilling promise.
Sephiroth: I will... never be a memory. Sephiroth then disappears.
Boomstick: Why does he sound so bored?
After that, everyone immediately agreed on one thing: Sephiroth was an unstoppable force of nature. For the knights, his swordsmanship plus his blade meant that he could easily hold all of them off without even trying and that sword of his could NOT be real.
The Mages of the group were shaken by his unlimited magic. From his skills in illusions to the fact he could unleash a friggin' SUPERNOVA and a Meteor meant scary stuff.
Vali was shaking from excitement. If he was real, he would be a worthy foe to battle. Unlike his rival, who was currently wetting his pants.
With Showman and Akeno.
"I'm just saying. Talk with your old man. He may have had a reason as to why he didn't show."
"Even if that were true. I basically disowned him. He wouldn't want to talk to me."
"You never know. Anyways...I will teach some of Sephiroth's skills and grant some of his abilities to use after this. But you will need to train them."
"What abilities?"
"After the video."
Everyone took their seats as they resumed the video. Next they saw another silver haired man that was shorter that was dressed in blue, who was holding a sword hilt.
"Another swordsman?" Kiba asked intrigued.
"I wonder how well he can use it?" Xenovia asked.
Suddenly ISsei piped up.
"Uhh, is it just me...or does he look like Dante?"
Soon everyone looked at Vergil with a critical gaze. Showman even put up a picture of Dante so they could have a look.
"Yeah...they look the same but Vergil looks...colder." Rias commented.
"Watch the video and you'll find out."
Wiz: Two thousand years ago, a great mutiny transpired in the Underworld. The demon warrior Sparda rebelled against his evil master, Mundus. To protect the world, Sparda did his best to seal the connection between Hell and Earth.
Boomstick: But then Sparda got lonely, or maybe it was just a sausage fest in there. Either way, he snuck out of hell long enough to knock up this chick named Eva, and she popped out a couple of awesome demon slayers! Nice choice!
"Perv." Koneko muttered while eating a lollipop.
"I don't know...I mean...He is just congratulating Sparda for getting two kids." Issei said.
Boomstick: I mean...Look at her! DAMN he scored!
"Forget I said anything." Issei muttered.
Wiz: You may remember the younger of the two, Dante.
Boomstick: Oh yeah, he fought that witch chick with the hair.
Wiz: But the eldest and potentially deadliest brother was the one and only, Vergil.
"OK, something tells me that there is a sibling rivalry between them," Rias spoke
"And the fact that they are opposites by the looks of it may further the friction," Sirzechs added.
Boomstick: Vergil and Dante were rivals from birth. Dante was a goofball, Vergil was serious. Dante hated his being a demon, and Vergil loved it. It's that classic odd couple scenario.
"More like the opposite twins scenario." Kiba corrected. Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.
BACKGROUND
Height: 6'4'' | 193 cm
Weight: approx. 182 lbs | 83 kg
AKA the Son of Sparda
Half human, half demon
Master of Iaijutsu (Kiba: So he knows the art of quickdraw…)
Became Nelo Angelo (Issei: Who in the what now?)
Was once robbed after losing a drinking game (Everyone chuckled at this)
Wiz: But then one fateful day, in an act of vengeance against the late Sparda, a group of rogue demons separated the two brothers and killed their mother. Vergil was believed to be dead.
"I can smell the bullshit from that statement." Kuroka spoke up and everyone nodded their heads in agreement
Wiz: But in reality, Vergil survived, and set out on his own path to seek his father's immense power for himself.
"You know what they say about power. It corrupts." Micheal said in a low tone.
The devils and Azazel nodded their heads in agreement.
Boomstick: And he's 100% equipped to be a butt-kicking demon slayer just like his Pops. As a half-demon, Vergil can jump several times his own height, move at supersonic speeds, and heal himself quickly, kinda like that Wolverine guy. He can tough out getting stabbed through the lungs, intestines, the heart, body parts I'm pretty sure most people need.
"If he's anything like his brother, then we know how deadly he is." Kiba said as everyone remembered Dante
Wiz: Not if my experiment has anything to say about it...
Boomstick: You say somethin', Wiz?
Wiz: I said not if Vergil's abilities have anything to say about it!
Boomstick: Well, sadly for any human, demon, or human-demon who gets in his way, Vergil also happens to carry some extra deadly weapons on hand, including a spiffy katana called Tomato!
Cue Facepalm from everyone at the bad pronunciation.
Wiz: Yamato.
"Now we get to see how powerful Yamato is," Azazel said as he leaned forward. The knights were also keen to learn more about the sword which could cut through dimensions easily. A sword that was powerful was lucky not to be real in their world.
Boomstick: Eh. It's said that this sword can cut through anything, even dimensions, and probably tomatoes! Actually, Yamato was the exact thing Sparda used to seal Hell from Earth in the first place.
"So it was used to seal Hell in that world? OK...that is powerful if it can do that!" Sirzechs exclaimed in shock. Everyone nodded their heads in agreement as they were uneasy at the feat.
Dark Slayer Style
- Vergil's personal fighting style
- Focuses on speed and teleportation
- Uses Iajitsu extremely well.
Wiz: Vergil's sword fighting prowess draws from his Dark Slayer Fighting Style, which emphasizes teleportation, lightning quick movements, and even quicker slashes straight from the sheath. This technique is directly influenced by Iaijutsu, the real life Japanese art of the quick draw. And thanks to Vergil's demonic powers, he can attack so fast, the blade seems invisible. (Kiba: I think I got some inspiration for my sword skills. Xenovia: Same here.)
ARSENAL
Yamato
- Vergil's main weapon
- Cuts through dimensions
Murasama
- Known as the Black Blade
- Indestructible
- Can cause Vergil to go mad from the insane soul
Beowulf
- Element: Light
- Can fire light as a projectile
- Useful for hand-to-hand combat
Force Edge
- Can be dual wielded with Yamato
Summoned Swords
- Meant for range as Vergil hates guns
- Phantom blades
- Spiral Swords
- Blistering Swords
- Sword Storm
- Heavy Rain (Hovers above enemies before raining down on them.)
Sniper Rifle
- Meant for precise shots
- Rarely used as Vergil dislikes guns.
Boomstick: But Yamato isn't the only weapon Vergil has. Throughout his journey, he acquired many weapons to build up his power. He even uses the Murasama, or the Black Blade, which is said to be indestructible but will cause Vergil to go mad.
Wiz: He even has a sniper rifle, but it is rarely used.
Boomstick: And if he needs to dual wield, he can use Force Edge.
Wiz: But for range, if he hates the guns, there is one more option: The Summoned Swords.
Boomstick: Ah, the only thing better than fighting with one sword is fighting with eight! With Vergil's ghostly Summoned Swords, he can turn himself into a living Beyblade, fire them like a machine gun, or... make it rain!
Wiz: Blades may be Vergil's bread and butter, but if he needs to focus on brute strength, he switches to Beowulf.
"WAIT, WAIT, WAIT! Beowulf?! As in...The Legendary HERO Beowulf?!" Sirzechs said in shock. If his pawn was here, then he would be shocked that he was a demon in this world.
"You DO realise he ain't your Beowulf, right?" Showman said with a raised brow.
"I know but still...This version was a demon this whole time? You can understand my shock." Sirzechs clarified.
"True."
Boomstick: He can charge up blink-of-an-eye punches and kicks that hit like a cement truck made of lead and KO some of the toughest demons in just a few hits. And hey, looks like he digs Street Fighter!
ITEMS
Vital Star
- Restores his Health
Devil Star
- Restores his Devil Energy
Holy Water
- Wards off demons
Golden Orb
- Restores his health
Wiz: He even has a few items on store, such as his Vital and Devil Stars which help with restoring his health and devil energy.
Boomstick: Not to mention the Holy Water which can fend off demons. How it doesn't burn him, I'll never know.
Wiz: But the most useful is the Golden Orb, which can bring him back to life.
Boomstick: If not then it can scare the shit out of enemies, I mean look at it! It looks like a freaky tiki!
"HE does have a point. The orb does look freaky." Rias muttered.
"But having that and those stars could be akin to Phoenix Tears." Ravel added in a thinking position.
"Still...how is he not burning from Holy Water?" Irina asked her superior.
"He must be very tolerant if he isn't affected." Micheal spoke.
Wiz: There are more tricks up Vergil's sleeve. Thanks to his demon blood, he can access a form known as Devil Trigger, and this mode amplifies everything.

Nelo Angelo
Boomstick: His strength, speed, and healing all get a huge boost, making him several times deadlier than before. Plus, he just looks badass! (True That!: Gasper said)
Wiz: But we cannot forget his Nelo Angelo form, which adds armor to Vergil and he wields a zweihander and allows his to use demonic fire and lightning.
Boomstick: Man, Vergil is definitely a badass, ain't he?
Wiz: That's right. In his quest to become as powerful as his father, Vergil's abilities skyrocketed. He's taken down dozens of demons in the blink of an eye, and escaped an illusion from the sorcerer Arkham which makes normal people go crazy.
Boomstick: But if anything's gonna show off what a Son of Sparda can really do, it's pitting him against his bro. Sure, Vergil can easily avoid Dante's bullets, but why dodge them when you can spin your sword, line them all up, and fire them back like a boss?
Wiz: In the same battle, they briefly created a twelve-foot diameter open space in a heavy rainstorm with nothing but their sword swings. On average, storms can fill a cubic foot space with as many as thirty raindrops. So Vergil and Dante must have destroyed one hundred and eight thousand raindrops in less than a second.
Average Rainfall: Cubic Foot Square - 30 Rain drops
Dome - 108,000 per second
Boomstick: If Vergil can swing his sword that fast, I'd bet he'd make a killing mowing lawns, or chopping meat at the deli, or giving haircuts, or doing that thing where he chops bad guys to pieces so fast they don't realize they're dead yet! Like when he popped Beowulf, the monster, not the weapon. And then he punched him so hard he flew fifty-five feet up and hit the ceiling!
Everyone blanched at the sight of the DMC version of Beowulf. It was a large lion-like creature with an eye missing, four bird wings on his back that aid him in flying and a scorpion tail.
"OK, I am SO glad my Beowulf isn't here to see this…" Sirzechs muttered as he felt a bit green
"It looks like something out of Fullmetal Alchemist." Rias added
Wiz: When comparing Beowulf's size to Vergil, he appears to be as large as an elephant. Given what's available, this seems like our best measure of Vergil's strength, but there is one issue. The Devil May Cry series makes frequent use of slow-motion to depict the absurdity of these characters, and this could be a similar case.
Boomstick: So let's look at another slow-mo feat: the rainstorm fight.
RAIN FREEZING IN VIDEO:
*Original Footage lasts 2.5 secs
Speed Up Footage by 1 Frame
14,500% increase in speed
BEOWULF FIGHT
Acceleration Speed of 4882 feet per second
Result: 720,000,000 Newtons of force
Wiz: At one point, the rain freezes in place for about two and a half seconds as Vergil and Dante keep moving, indicating a fourteen thousand five hundred percent speed increase in real-time. Applying the same degree to the Beowulf punch gives us an acceleration speed of about four thousand eight hundred and eighty-two feet per second. With that in mind, we can apply our previous data to deduce the maximum height sans ceiling and determine Vergil's striking strength to be nearly seven hundred and twenty million newtons of force.
After seeing the calculations on the screen, the audience's eyes widened.
"I think this guy outclassed you in punching Koneko…" Issei whispered out as they saw how strong the punches were.
Koneko could only nod her head in agreement.
"I don't think I would want to be on the wrong end of his fists when he strikes." Azazel said in slight fear.
"I agree…" Sirzech added.
Boomstick: Talk about a knuckle sandwich!
Wiz: It matches Vergil's incredible toughness, too. We can even compare him to when Dante blocked the Punch from the Saviour, which was only half the force to the BEowulf Punch
Boomstick: And we already mentioned his super healing factor, but it's even more overpowered than you think. Vergil once got completely cut in half, but healed so fast that it's impossible to even notice!
Wiz: But Vergil isn't invincible. His regeneration ability can be worn down.
Boomstick: Yeah, that's how this weird jester guy beat him.
Wiz: But it takes a lot to pull off. And Vergil can always just use Yamato to hop through dimensions to get away if he wants.
Boomstick: Sadly, Vergil never got to rule the demon realm like he wanted.
Wiz: Instead, the Demon King Mundus permanently transformed Vergil into his puppet, irreversibly manipulating his mind in the process.
Boomstick: And then Dante kind of uh... exploded him... But one or two losses against someone who's basically goddamn Satan hardly make him a weakling. Hell, he even ended up banging some human chick and got a cool half-demon son. Like Father Like Son I suppose.
Wiz: Hell and Earth trembles before the power of Vergil.
Vergil: It'll be fun to fight with the Prince of Darkness. If my father did it, I should be able to do it, too!
Vergil yells and charges forward.
After Vergil's preview was over, they all had to gather their thoughts. They all agree on one thing. He was a Badass. Someone that embraced his demon blood fully, was someone that the faction leaders were both weary and interested in. The use of the katana meant a lot of respect for the knights of the group. If they could use those techniques then they would be unstoppable in the game. For Koneko, She was interested in his skills with punching. I mean, punching that creature so high was no easy feat.
But for Akeno, she saw just how unstoppable he was by embracing her demon heritage. Maybe she could be the same if she embraced her fallen side.
Now they were discussing the votes.
"So...who do you think will win?" Kiba asked as he sipped his soda.
"Perhaps Sephiroth? I mean, he has military experience." Rias said with a thinking pose.
"Plus, that Supernova attack cannot be easy to survive." Issei added.
"I don't know...that amount of weapons Vergil has may turn the tide…" Asia spoke.
"True but having a lot of gear won't mean crap if your opponent can find a way around them." Sirzech said to the former nun.
With Azazel, he had his own thoughts…
"Sephiroth...seriously...where have I heard that name…?
When he looked at his mug, a thought suddenly came to mind.
"Wait...Sephiroth...mug...I think I know where…"
"ALRIGHT! YOU ALL GOT YOUR SNACKS, REFILLED YOUR MUGS, DONE YOUR BUSINESS! LET'S GET THIS SHIT STARTED!" Showman exclaimed as he started the battle.
(Cues One-Winged Devil - Therewolf Media)
Vergil walks with his blade sheathed among abandoned castle ruins, until a Blue dragon flies down towards him, landing in front of Vergil and roaring in his face.
Vergil just looks unimpressed
Vergil: This is a joke, right?
With a click of his sword, Vergil appears above the dragon, who is paused. Slowly sheathing the blade, the head of the dragon is suddenly decapitated.
"Guess when you face against other demons for so long, other beasts just seem like cannon fodder." Rias said as she witnessed the quick death of the dragon. Everyone agreed to that.
Vergil: Pathetic.
Vergil then walks off, but notices a presence behind him. It is Sephiroth
Sephiroth: Hmm... you are powerful. I can see it.
"Cue OP villain taking an interest." Issei said as they leaned in closer.
Vergil turns around to face Sephiroth.
Vergil: Who are you?
Sephiroth smiles.
Sephiroth: No one
He then unleashes Masamune to use against Vergil. Vergil, sensing a fight, places a hand on Yamato.
Sephiroth: Just your despair.
FIGHT!
The battle begins with Vergil and Sephiroth repeatedly clashing blades, with Vergil successfully repelling his opponent. Sephiroth uses downward slashes but Vergil quickdraws his blade to block them before forcing him back.
"OK, so they are just testing the waters. Are we going to see some real action?" Vali asked as he saw the two clash.
When Sephiroth charges again after being forced back, Vergil teleports and switches to Beowulf, and attempts to strike Sephiroth with a diving kick. He then uses Force Edge to block another slash from Masamune, before crossing his arms to perform an X-shaped slash. In return, Sephiroth uses Wall to block the attack, before following up by using Shadow Flare on an airborne and vulnerable Vergil.
"That was quick thinking. Honor may be useful but when an opportunity rises, why not take it?" Azazel commented, impressed with the attack.
"You do realise he is a deadly lunatic, right?" Sirzechs said in confusion.
"What? I'm allowed to appreciate good strategy." Azazel defended himself.
Vergil is knocked back by the attack, but is no worse for wear as he ditches Force Edge for Yamato., and the two begin speeding around the battlefield while repeatedly clashing with their attacks, with Vergil switching between Yamato and Beowulf partway through. Eventually, Sephiroth gets the upper hand with Masamune's superior reach and stabs Vergil through the chest, prompting him to teleport away. He then circles Sephiroth
"OK, now we are getting somewhere." Vali said with a pleased smirk
"Man, they are going at high speeds." Kiba said in awe. That is even faster than he was.
Vergil: Okay, you're strong.
Vergil then prepares to draw Yamato again.
Vergil: But are you fast enough?
Vergil dashes towards Sephiroth at blinding speeds, getting behind Sephiroth right as he begins to charge, slashing the One-Winged Angel. He then follows up with a Judgement Cut.
Vergil: Don't move.
Vergil sheaths his blade as a multitude of slashes harm Sephiroth, tearing off some of the skin around his chest and causing him to start bleeding. Using cure to heal himself, Sephiroth dusts his body
Sephiroth: Impressive. I suppose it can't be helped.
Sephiroth sprouts his single wing and then causes multiples of himself to appear, and they all charge at Vergil. As he's clashing with one, Yamato goes through the copy's Masamune, confirming that they are illusions, which disappear when Vergil lands a good hit on one. He looks around as the copies fly around him.
Vergil: They're fake?
One Sephiroth then tries a stab but Veril leaps out of the way in time to reveal a Sniper Rifle.
Vergil: Didn't want to use this. But...no choice
Vergil then begins to let lose shot after shot to the heads of the copies, each one disappearing. However, one soon appears in front of him and slices it in half. Vergil then switches to Beowulf and delivers a Dragon Uppercut, destroying it. Soon he requips Yamato as three Sephiroths jump towards Vergil.
Vergil: Stop wasting my time.
The audience then sees the blue aura surrounding Vergil.
"Wait is he gonna-?" Issei said when suddenly.
Vergil enters Devil Trigger mode and uses another Judgement Cut to destroy the illusions at the same time.
"He did!" Rias answered the question as they witnessed Vergil go Devil mode.
He then proceeds to clash blades with yet more illusions, once more utilizing both Beowulf and Yamato. He then looks around and sees yet more illusions flying around him.
Vergil: You're going down!
Vergil then uses his Summoned Swords in conjunction with his weapons to once again fight the horde of illusions, even repelling multiple of them at once. Once his Summoned Swords run out, he looks to see continuous illusions charging at him. Growing tired of it, he uses Judgement Cut End to dispatch all of them.
"Man, talk about not wasting time." Bikou said as he shoved more popcorn into his mouth.
As he does this, the real Sephiroth re-emerges, but this time he is in his Safer-Sephiroth mode.
Vergil looks up to see the giant seraph form glare down on him.
Vergil: What the hell?!
"Oh my...Safer-Sephiroth...If he's out then…" Irina said as she began to sweat in fear.
"Vergil is screwed." Azazel added. Safer-Sephiroth is a literal GOD. They knew what will happen next
Sephiroth: Behold the truth!
Noticing the sudden shift around him, Vergil turns around.
Vergil: What is that!?
Sephiroth: Super... nova.
As Sephiroth explains his plan, the scene shifts to a Final Fantasy 7-esque cutscene showing the Supernova in action, with Vergil appearing in the party menu with 9999/9999 HP and Devil Trigger. It also uses Final Fantasy 7's cutscene for Supernova.
Sephiroth: I saw you could pierce the fabric of our dimension, so I cast an illusion to disguise this. Witness oblivion!
At Sephiroth's behest, the Supernova begins incinerating Vergil. As he's burning and screaming in agony, he reaches for Yamato and slices his way out of the dimension. In his weakened state, he drops out of Devil Trigger and his clothes and body are covered with burns.
Vergil: I'm... free.
The critically injured Vergil sighs in relief on escaping Supernova and quickly uses a vital star to revitalise his health, He then just manages to dodge Sephiroth's blade, who now went back to his base form.
Sephiroth: Hmph... So you survived.
Vergil quickly begins to run towards Sephiroth but pauses when he notices something falling from the sky.
VErgil: What?
"Wait, Meteor?!" Sirzechs exclaimed
"I guess being a master strategist really is in his skill set." Grayfia added also shocked.
Sephiroth: Did you really think I wouldn't have a backup plan in case Supernova didn't kill you? Here's your demise.
Vergil tries to escape using Yamato but Sephiroth quickly slices his hands, causing him to drop Yamato. Soon the Meteor comes onto Vergil, crushing him with its weight, and ending the life of the Dark Angel.
Sephiroth: Hmph. What a joke
KO!
Sephiroth picks up Yamato and flies off while the ruins of the castle remain smoldering
Everyone in the audience cheered at the awesome battle.
"THAT WAS SO FRICKIN' WICKED!" Issei yelled out, leaping from his seat in excitement.
"YEAH! THE WAY THAT METEOR CAME ONTO THE FIELD WAS AWESOME!" Bikou also yelled out.
"Guess Sephiroth really is that powerful. It would be amazing to face him in real life." Vali said with a bloodthirsty grin.
"Hey! The results are coming soon! Let's see how he won." Rias said as she calmed down.
Boomstick: OOF! Now I know how the dinosaurs felt.
Wiz: These two were extremely powerful swordsmen, but Sephiroth simply had the edge. Experience-wise, Sephiroth was a war hero compared to Vergil who ended up becoming Mundus' puppet, so strategy was easily something Sephiroth had in spades.
"True. A good strategy and experience usually turn the tide in battles" Sirzechs said with a nod of his head.
Boomstick: Wait a minute. I thought the lore said Vergil's sword could cut through anything! Why didn't it cut through Sephiroth's sword?
"Yeah. Why didn't it?" Kiba said as he remembered that tidbit from the analysis. Everyone was also confused by that.
Wiz: Yamato was a unique weapon, but the legend is clearly exaggerated. On multiple occasions, it's clashed with Dante's blade and even a common rocket launcher without cutting through either, and sometimes requires an exuberant amount of force to cut through tougher material.
They all agreed with that when they saw the clash. If Yamato could cut through anything, that rocket launcher should've been in two.
Wiz (Cont.): But let's discuss the REAL facts.
Boomstick: Like strength! So, Vergil with Beowulf could do seven hundred and twenty million newtons, right? But there aren't a lot of good Sephy strength feats to compare.
Wiz: First, let's compare Sephiroth to a fellow 1st Class member of the SOLDIER fighting force, who had also been experimented on with Jenova's Cells... Zack Fair.
Boomstick: Remember him? He's the Not-Cloud guy who fought that dragon.
Wiz: At his peak, Zack could cut through a large metal door with one swing, seemingly with most of his strength. Given the size and width of the door, this feat's sheer strength comes out to nine hundred and eighty million newtons.
CHARACTER STATS
Sephiroth:
Strength: 78
Fake Zack:
Strength: 22
(Cues Fire Surfer)
Boomstick: And Seph was way stronger than Zack! In fact, if we look at their strength stats when they fought that dragon, Sephiroth was three and a half times stronger than Zack!
Wiz: Putting Sephiroth's strength output at over three billion newtons. That's almost as much force as thirty Hiroshima bombs.
Boomstick: Strength isn't everything, though. Vergil was technically faster than Sephy, but Sephiroth has handled people of similar speeds before. Plus, Sephiroth could survive plenty of hits because his healing power is broken.
Wiz: The capabilities of Vergil's healing factor was nearly unprecedented, but it had its limits. In contrast, Sephiroth's healing abilities were only limited by his pool of magic... which was unlimited.
Boomstick: Well, he also had to take some time to cast each healing spell, but that's why he distracted Vergil with his illusions.
Wiz: We know Vergil was susceptible to illusionary and mental attacks, as it's happened to him multiple times and even lead to his in-canon demise.
Boomstick: And Sephiroth's illusions could hide his ultimate techniques. Yeah, Vergil's healing was pretty awesome, but it was never gonna hold up under an exploding sun to the face.
Wiz: And don't forget, Sephiroth is a master manipulator. If Vergil did manage to escape and heal himself, it wouldn't be too out of character for him to hide is other ultimate technique, Meteor.
Boomstick: And trust me, that meteor is deadly as hell.
CALC:
Meteor: r=589.8m, d=1.179km
Volume: 859,479, 732 cubic metres
Weight: 2.9 trillion kg.
SPEED:
Speed: 9.2 per second per second
Distance: 292.6 m
Time: 7.3 secs
Overall: 75.72 M/s squared
When hitting the ground- 8.43 PJ (Peta Joules) = 2.01 mt of TNT
Wiz: The Meteor shown has a radius of around 590m and a diameter of 1.179km and an average volume of around 859,000,000 cubic metres, giving a weight of around 2.9 trillion kg. An average meteor travels to earth at 9.2 seconds in speed in 7.3 seconds. Taking this into account this gives us a total of 8.43 petajoules of energy when it hits. That is equal to 2.01 megatons of TNT.
"WOAH! THAT IS A LOT OF EXPLOSIVE POWER!" Rias said as she felt a slight headache from the calculations in her head.
"I think my brain is being fried." Issei whined at all of the math.
"Looks like Vergil wouldn't be able to survive such a blow." Akeno commented
Boomstick: HOLY HELL! Yeah, Vergil wouldn't survive being turned into a pancake by that. Or by the remaining explosion!
Wiz: Vergil put up a good fight, but he couldn't match Sephiroth's superior strength, magic, and techniques.
Boomstick: Looks like this devil's cried for the last time.
Wiz: The winner is Sephiroth.
With the match finished, Showman got up to open the room to the training room. As Akeno went in, he turned to the rest of the audience.
"Before I train with Akeno, let me give you some gifts." he said as he waved his hands and summoned some swords.
"For you Kiba, here is a copy of Yamato and a guide to Iajitsu. The art of quickdraw will help with pulling off quick strikes that will make your opponents not realise that had happened. I am also giving you a guide to Vergil's sword techniques."
"Thank you, Showman. I will use them well." He said as he collected his gifts.
"You Lady Knight is a copy of Sephiroth's Masamune and HIS sword techniques. That sword is longer than you so I would build up the arm strength to use it."
"It will be done." Xenovia said.
"And you Nun. Here are some cure Materia. If you are ever out of phoenix tears or healing magic, use these in a pinch"
"Thank you." She said in a happy tone.
"Now to start training our Fallen Devil hybrid" He said as he entered the training room.
Once inside, he saw Akeno in her priestess outfit.
"So...shall we begin~" She said in a lusty tone, but Showman just deadpanned.
"OK, no flirting here. The first thing is this. What is the REAL reason you don't want to use your fallen side?" He demanded, causing her to falter
"You know why, because my father had abandoned me and my mother, causing her to be killed due to me being half fallen.
"That's it? You telling me you've been crippling yourself because of some daddy issues?"
"What do you mean?"
"You sound like an emo teenager! 'OH, MY FATHER LEFT ME SO I'LL JUST BE STUCK IN THE PAST AND NOT LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAYS!' Are you serious?! You are gonna get your team's ass kicked because of some issues never resolved?! So what if your father left you to be skewered. WHy don't you consider his side? He may not be willing to leave you for so long! Why don't you just speak with him?"
Akeno tried to use the same excuse but faltered. What if he was right? Had she been crippling herself by not talking to her father to sort things out?
"Now then...how about we learn some of ol' Sephiroth's magic techniques.?" He said with a smile. But before Akeno could say anything.
"NO! I AM NOT TEACHING YOU SUPERNOVA OR METEOR!
After a few minutes, Akeno emerged with a thoughtful look.
"So how was it?" Rias asked as she grabbed her shoulders, only for them to go through her.
"What?" She said in shock only to hear chuckling from behind. She then saw Akeno leaning against the wall
"Gotcha."
HOLY HELL WAS THIS CHAPTER A PAIN TO WRITE BUT NOW I CAN ENJOY A BREAK FROM THIS!
Anyways according to the results...Looks like the next match is a Rias one but that all could change so say which match you wanna see next from the chart and I'll get started.
But first:
Omake:
Azazel was in his library, looking through the files when he finally came across the one he was looking for.
"There it is." He said as he read the file's title. Sephiroth Graal.
"The legendary Holy Grail. THAT is where I heard the name 'Sephiroth' from."
As he sat down, he got his phone ready.
He better let Sirzechs and Micheal know about this and they may need to find it in case someone else uses it for chaotic deeds.
That's the OMAKE!
Looks like a certain Sacred Gear is needing to be found
Now my time's done here, thanks for coming to the show, see you next time if you want another go.
