Hurray, exams are over so for the next forty days or so, I am back in full swing. That being said, my trusty computer of eight years has finally started to reach the end of its lifetime, since two of my fans are not working properly and my motherboard is slightly damaged now and giving off a burning smell.
A moment of silence for the best computer ever.
.
.
Thank you for that; now what this means is I am getting a new computer, sadly this also means that I now need to buy Microsoft office again, install it, and transfer all my files (not just my various stories, published and unpublished) over to my new computer, which will be a monster. For those of you who understand computers: 16GB RAM, 3TB storage, Quad Core processor 3.5GHz and 7200RPM.
What this means however is I will need at least two or three days to transfer all my stuff over, bookmarks, various cookies and programs as well, before I will be able to write again. I am planning to focus a bit more on my DBZ story and my first Naruto story along with my newest when I get bored of writing good Naruto mostly over this time. I will update my other stories, but this one will probably only get two or three more updates over the next forty days or so, sorry about that, but I feel that I am pausing at a good point with how this chapter ends.
With that being said, enjoy the chapter.

Flashback
Chapter 10 – Restraints Were Made To Be Broken
Dohnaseek struck first looking to jab Raynare in the gut with both of his tonfa-like light spears. Raynare ducked under the attempt and tried to slash Dohnaseek across his gut but to no avail, as Dohnaseek pushed away from her attack quickly.
'You survived my first attack, I never anticipated that.' Said Dohnaseek, getting a tick mark to form on Raynare's head.
'Oh yeah, eat this then!' Shouted Raynare, as her spear quickly doubled in size, before being thrown at Dohnaseek.
'Ha, that won't hit me.' Taunted Dohnaseek arrogantly, as he quickly flew to the side to avoid it, but in his moment of dodging, lost sight of Raynare.
'Take this!' Raynare shouted from behind Dohnaseek and launched a powerful axe kick into his back, sending him plummeting.
Dohnaseek stopped himself from slamming into the ground by adopting a push-up position, before shooting back up into the sky.
'Crude violence, how unseemly of a fallen angel.' Said Dohnaseek.
'Whatever works, weren't you the one boasting I wouldn't be able to touch you huh? What happened?' Teased Raynare.
'One lucky hit doesn't mean a thing; if you were actually smart, you would have used a light spear and ended this fight then.' Said Dohnaseek.
"Oh crap… sorry Issei." Thought Raynare, realising she just did something stupid.
'That being said, your attack did succeed in one thing; I am now taking you seriously.' Said Dohnaseek, before three light spears materialised around his position, two of which he grasped and the third which hovered above his position menacingly. His two tonfa like spears disengaged from his arms and morphed slightly, becoming spikes on the ends of his elbows.
"Damn it." Thought Raynare in frustration, seeing this fight just got a lot harder for her.
-line break-
'What's the matter, shitty devil, giving up already?' Taunted Freed.
The downed form of Kiba lay next to the downed form of Xenovia; Excalibur destruction was just as ineffective against Freed as were Kiba's various blades.
'Ah yes, now I remember you, it didn't come to me until you were on the floor grovelling. You are that one brat who escaped from the Holy Sword Project, yes, I remember you now.' Commented Valper, as he looked at the downed form of Kiba.
'You… bastard!' Growled Kiba angrily.
'Hmm, you seem unhappy, I see, perhaps if I explain to you the aim of the Holy Sword Project, you may feel honoured. You see, when I was a child, I was enamoured with the tale of Excalibur, imagine my distress when I found out I couldn't wield them. I didn't let that stop me though and delved deeper, eventually, I found out there is in fact a way for people to wield Excalibur, even if they are not attuned to them, it is thanks to all of you that I achieved this.' Said Valper.
'All of us? You butchered us like pigs deeming us failures!' Shouted Kiba, as he struggled to rise to his feet.
'Ah, yes, I did, but that was because I had already extracted the factor from all of you, an essential factor which allowed people to wield Excalibur, I'm sure your temporary ally must know of this, she would have received it through a blessing; they deemed my actions to be wrong, but had no qualms with using my research.' Continued Valper.
'I see… that thing they put inside the holy sword wielders, that must have been the factor.' Said Xenovia through grit teeth.
'Indeed, you see, I crystallised the factor into what you see before you.' Said Valper as he pulled out a blue orb that was glowing.
'You killed my comrades for that, a simple jewel to empower others to be able to use Excalibur?' Questioned Kiba in anger.
'Indeed, I only gathered four though and had to use three on Freed here, since I am feeling generous, I will graciously give you this one, since I have learned how to mass produce them and soon, I will create an army of holy sword wielders ready to combat the angels and Vatican.' Said Valper, before he carelessly threw the orb at Kiba, it bounced off the ground a few times, before coming to rest at Kiba's feet.
'Everyone.' Said Kiba sadly, as he carefully picked up the orb with trembling hands.
A tear dropped from Kiba's eyes and landed on the orb, before it started to glow brighter than before, a multitude of spirits appeared around Kiba, talking to him, whispering encouragement.
'Interesting, this is quite a strange turn of events.' Commented Valper as the spirits glowed, shooting into the sky, before a beam of light slammed into Kiba.
'Become the sword of my comrades, Balance Breaker "Sword of the Betrayer"!' Shouted Kiba, as the blade in his hands was revealed pulsing with holy and demonic power.
Kiba charged at Freed and proceeded to launch a myriad of slashes, all of which Freed blocked, albeit with some effort. Xenovia took this chance however and begun to chant.
'Saint Peter. Saint Basil the Great. Saint Denis. Holy-mother Mary. Please hear my voice.' Said Xenovia, as the space next to her hand became distorted.
Xenovia put her hand into the distortion and pulled something right out of the dimensional gap she had just created. What appeared was a single sword that gave out a holy aura. The aura was monstrous; easily dwarfing the aura of both Kiba's holy-demonic sword and Freed's fused Excaliburs.
'In the names of the saints whom reside within this blade, I will release it. Durandal!' Said Xenovia, as the blade was revealed. It was a uniquely shaped broadsword with a blue blade and a golden edge. The sword had a semicircular guard on the left side of the handle that extended to the bottom just above the pommel, with a small extension on the right side of the handle. Standing from the tip of the blade, the Durandal was nearly as tall as Xenovia, surpassing her height by just a few centimetres.
'You mean you are not a wielder of Excalibur?' Questioned Freed in shock.
'While I too did receive the factor to use Excalibur like Irina, I am the natural born wielder of Durandal, however, even I do not take it lightly, this sword ravages everything and doesn't like to listen to me at times.' Explained Xenovia.
'I don't care at all, you annoying pest, I will destroy you!' Ranted Freed, as he disappeared and tried to slash Xenovia.
With a solid clang, Excalibur fell to pieces, felled by a single strike.
'How disappointing, it is just a broken holy sword after all, unable to even take one hit from Durandal.' Said Xenovia, the path through which Durandal struck was left in ruins.
From a single swing the ground was ruptured, and serious damage was done to the school.
'Are you serious? Seriously? The legendary Excalibur destroyed in a single hit.' Said Freed in shock.
"He is distracted, time to end this." Thought Kiba, before lunging at Freed.
Freed turned to defend with what remained of Excalibur, but it proved ineffective, Freed's chest was slashed into deeply and blood flowed freely from his chest.
'A holy-demonic sword, yes, it seems I was right.' Said Valper, unperturbed by the fact that his last line of defence had been cut down.
'It seems that the four leaders of the devil faction were not the only ones who died, yes the leader of the angels is dead as well.' Said Valper in satisfaction, stunning all gathered there, before a figure appeared behind Valper and chopped him from behind.
'It seems I was a bit late.' Commented a young man, with dark silver hair and light blue eyes. The most noticeable thing about him though was the pair of white dragon wings jutting from his back.
'Who are you?' Demanded Rias.
'That isn't really important now.' Said the figure before he disappeared and reappeared near Cerberus touching it briefly before saying divide causing the beast to whimper.
'If you wouldn't mind, please finish this beast off now, it should be weak enough in its current state.' Requested the figure, before Akeno launched a huge bolt of lightning at it which paralysed it, before Rias obliterated it with a sphere of destructive energy.
'Now then who are you?' Demanded Rias once again.
'Do you really not know?' Questioned the figure in amusement, a small smile on his face.
'He is: The White One.' Said Xenovia, after returning Durandal to its own dimension.
'Vanishing Dragon.' Muttered Akeno.
'Indeed, but.' Began the figure, before a massive explosion of energy was felt in the distance.
'Oh my, something very important has just come up; I suggest you all follow me.' Said the figure with a grim face, as he picked up Freed and Valper's downed forms and flew off towards the explosion of energy.
All the devils spread their wings and took off after the figure. Xenovia stood there with a dispassionate expression on her face.
"Really? They all fly away and leave me here?" Thought Xenovia, before starting to run after them in annoyance.
-line break-
'Really, is that all you can do, to think I expected so much more?' Said Kokabiel in disappointment.
'I'm just getting started!' Growled Issei before boosting continuously at a rapid pace.
'Boost, Boost, Boost.' Cried Issei's gauntlet once again before charging at Kokabiel.
'Dragon's Fury.' Shouted Issei before opening his mouth, the mouthpiece of the helmet temporarily opening, and spewing a wave of fire at Kokabiel.
'Oh, how surprising, I didn't know you could do that, you have hidden your abilities well it seems.' Said Kokabiel.
'I'm full of surprises!' Shouted Issei, before charging up a dragon shot, which he launched at Kokabiel.
Kokabiel stood his ground and threw a light spear at the small ball of energy causing it to detonate early, something Kokabiel was thankful for when he saw an explosion that reached ten metres in diameter.
"He is closing in on my level it seems, how exciting." Thought Kokabiel with a sick grin.
'Explosion.' Cried the Boosted Gear.
'Now you're finished.' Said Issei, before appearing in the air behind Kokabiel in a burst of speed, fist cocked back ready to slug him in the face.
Kokabiel created a light spear and had it intercept the punch, causing a stalemate, seeing this, Issei pulled his other fist back for another punch, but Kokabiel, once again, created another light spear to block it. Growling slightly, Issei reared his helmet clad head back and slammed it into Kokabiel's face, causing his nose to bleed, but somehow not break.
'That's better, now you are almost on the level of the dirt below my feet.' Said Kokabiel arrogantly, before kicking Issei in the stomach, launching him back.
"Damn it, he is immensely strong. I can't keep holding back." Thought Issei resolutely.
'Fine, if that is the case, I will need to make sure that just like the dirt, I rise up from the ground and bury you for all of eternity.' Declared Issei, before raising both hands up.
'Dragon's Roar.' Said Issei before two large beams burst from his hands, merging into one large beam of solid red energy. To finish the attack, Issei launched a blast of fire from his mouth which swirled around the blast of energy.
'Take this.' Said Kokabiel as he launched a golden light spear, equal in size to Issei's blast, reaching half the size of Kuoh.
The two attacks battled for supremacy, before surprisingly, for Kokabiel at least, Issei's attack overwhelmed Kokabiel's and ploughed on towards him, forcing Kokabiel to duck down, now being only a metre off the ground.
'Interesting, I'm sure you must now think you have the upper hand on me, however, while I don't care for them, I do know a few things about your Sacred Gear.' Said Kokabiel, as Issei slowly dropped back to the ground.
'Reset.' Echoed from Issei's gauntlet, getting Kokabiel to smirk.
'It has a time limit.' Said Kokabiel triumphantly.
Issei's armour disappeared, and his weary form was left there panting slightly.
'Issei.' Said Asia, as she quickly rushed to his side to heal what she could.
'Not to worry though, I am nothing if not a fighter. I will let you regain your strength and get back to your maximum capabilities, before I utterly crush you, so there is no doubt that you are nothing before me. After all, what is the fun in crushing an ant, when you can crush a dragon just as easily.' Said Kokabiel arrogantly.
'You won't be taking Issei out at all!' Shouted Irina, who suddenly jumped into the clearing and tried to slash Kokabiel, who merely moved slightly to the side.
'If it is a sword battle you want, I would be happy to indulge you for now, waiting for the Red Dragon to recharge would be terribly boring after all.' Said Kokabiel, before creating a light spear, which he held from the end, intending to use it as a sword.
'I will cut you down here for all the evil you have committed.' Said Irina, before charging at Kokabiel, intending to bisect him vertically.
Kokabiel raised his spear and blocked the sword, before pushing upwards with it, opening Irina's guard, followed by a devastating kick to Irina's midsection, which sent her back. Kokabiel waited for Irina to get to her feet, which she did slowly. Irina decided against rushing Kokabiel and started to circle him. Kokabiel didn't move even when she was behind him, causing Irina to sweat slightly in nervousness. Irina decided to take the obvious bait and tried to slash Kokabiel's back, but Kokabiel dodged by moving to the right and kicked Irina's outstretched arm, nearly breaking her left elbow.
Irina grunted in pain and switched to holding the sword with her right hand, while Kokabiel laughed.
'What is so funny? Have you finally realised that God will have you struck down? Do you wish to repent?' Questioned Irina with narrowed eyes.
'Hahaha, amusing, since you have entertained me slightly with your words, allow me to enlighten you.' Said Kokabiel, gaining Issei's attention, as well as Asia's.
'You see, I do not fear God, oh no, in fact, no one should, do you want to know why?' Asked Kokabiel to Irina.
Issei started to get a sinking feeling in his gut that something was about to go terribly wrong.
'It is common knowledge to most that the Four Satans perished in the last Great War, along with many other devils. What isn't common knowledge, is that they are not the only faction leaders to die in the war. Yes, in fact, God too perished.' Said Kokabiel, stunning Irina and Asia.
'W-what?' Whispered Asia in shock.
'You lie! That could never happen, how can there still be blessings if the Lord does not exist?' Retorted Irina angrily.
'Ah yes, Michael has been doing a good job of maintaining the system, he is not doing perfectly, but considering his predecessor, he is doing the best he can.' Said Kokabiel calmly.
'B-but how… can this be?' Questioned Irina in shock.
'No, don't listen to him!' Roared Issei, getting both Asia and Irina's focus to shift to him.
'God can never die, the message of God is immortal, you should know this, both of you, as long as there is still one person who believes in God and follows his teachings, God can never be dead. The angels still exist just like the devils still exist, if the previous Satans haven't been forgotten, God will never be forgotten either. As long as one person still follows the teachings of God, God can never die!' Shouted Issei, succeeding in getting Irina and Asia to regain their senses.
'Oh, what is this, you have given them hope again, interesting, it is false hope since I am saying the truth, even more interesting is the fact that you can say that despite being around so many devils and fallen angels, however, maybe this will give you the proof you need.' Said Kokabiel, before materialising three light spears which he threw and pierced Irina's chest and stomach with.
Irina dropped to her knees coughing out blood.
'NO IRINA!' Shouted Issei.
Asia quickly ran over to Irina and tried to heal her before she bled out; the spears had pierced her right lung, left shoulder as well as her stomach and left three fist-sized holes.
'HAHAHA, where is your God now boy? God couldn't even save one loyal follower of his from a fallen angel such as I.' Mocked Kokabiel, as he laughed manically.
Issei's world was shattered, Irina was dying, this was just like before, someone came for a holy sword which Irina had access to, only this time Issei hadn't been able to stop them.
"Is this it? Was all of that training, pushing myself to the limit and going beyond the point of exhaustion for nothing? Irina is dying… and that bastard is laughing. I will make him pay… I will make him… PAY!" Thought Issei savagely.
Issei started to emit a blood red aura from his entire body. The entire area was soon bathed in the eerie red light.
'Asia Argento, take Irina's body and try to heal her if you can. If you don't want to die, get away from here now. Run as fast as you can!' Said Ddraig's voice coming from within Issei's gauntlet, causing Asia to run as quickly as she could with Irina on her shoulder.
'You, Kokabiel, you won't live to regret your actions.' Said Ddraig's voice, as Issei slowly started to walk towards Kokabiel.
'I, who is about to awaken,am the Heavenly Dragon who has stolen the principles of domination from God. I laugh at the infinite, and I grieve at the dream. I shall become the Red Dragon of Domination, and I shall sink you to the depths of the crimson purgatory!' Chanted Issei, his voice not his own, but rather a mix of voices, young, old, female and male.
'Juggernaut Drive!' Shouted Issei, before his body exploded with power.
His armour covered his form once again, but his armour was different. Large wings grew out of it; both his hands and feet were covered with claw-like golden spines and his helmet gained several sharp spines as well. Issei gave a beastly roar, and the surrounding area was decimated: the trees, the ground, everything was destroyed, as the pulse of energy burst from Issei's body creating a large crater that was almost twenty metres wide. The entire park was destroyed; nothing was spared from the blast of energy.
-line break-
'That immense blast of energy… what was that.' Said Raynare, huffing slightly in exhaustion.
'Interesting, it seems that friend of yours is much more powerful than it would seem, it seems I need to end you now, to make sure I can go protect Kokabiel.' Said Dohnaseek.
'Like hell you will!' Shouted Raynare, before creating two light spears in her hands before charging at Dohnaseek.
Dohnaseek merely created a single spear twice the length of his normal spears making it more akin to a staff, rather than a spear. Raynare swung the first spear down at Dohnaseek, but he raised his staff before rotating it, throwing Raynare off balance. Dohnaseek tried to end the battle there and pierce Raynare through her heart, but she crossed both spears in front of her, taking the hit on the point where the spears crossed.
'Your guard is down!' Shouted Dohnaseek, before sending a left roundhouse kick at Raynare, sending her flying.
Dohnaseek held his staff with his left hand and created another spear in his right hand which he threw at the fallen angel. Raynare felt the spear approaching and realised it would pierce her head, so she flapped her wings hard, slowing her descent just enough so the spear flew past her.
Raynare glared at Dohnaseek, before twelve spears materialised around her in a circle.
'You are not going to beat me here today!' Shouted Raynare, as her very being glowed with power.
Dohnaseek's eyes widened, not because of the attack, but because he knew what was about to happen to Raynare, the very same thing happening to him only days before.
A dark violet glow emanated from Raynare, surrounding her entire body, as well as the spears hovering around her. The light intensified before it was seemingly drawn to Raynare's back. Raynare leaned forward slightly in exertion, as the power flowed through her, she had felt this sensation only once before, the feeling of empowerment, the feeling of strength. The light started to take shape; it formed a strange elongated conglomeration of darkness that was bent in the middle. The mass of energy started to harden and take a more solid form, slowly coming together until two more wings formed, jutting out of Raynare's back. The spears that had previously been a light pink had now changed to violet. Raynare glared up at Dohnaseek's form, before she launched the spears around her straight at him in a spiralling fashion.
Dohnaseek growled as he tried to predict the trajectory of the spears and found it was too erratic for him to follow and thus two pierced his quadriceps despite his best efforts to block them with his staff like light spear.
Dohnaseek grunted in pain as he started to descend, as Raynare smirked haughtily at him.
'You thought you could beat me, hah.' Said Raynare, as she created a light spear, ready to finish of Dohnaseek.
Just as Raynare went to throw it, she felt a light touch on her shoulder, which made her whirl around in surprise that someone got behind her, only to freeze in fear when she felt the amount of power the figure had.
'I would appreciate you not killing him; Azazel will want to have a word with him after all.' Said the figure, with both Freed and Valper now flung over his left shoulder.
'How do you know Azazel?' Asked Raynare suspiciously with narrowed eyes.
'I will explain later if you must know so badly, but this really isn't the time.' Said the figure, before the area where Issei and Kokabiel were fighting, glowed an ominous red, as flames fell from a point in the sky.
Raynare nodded reluctantly, before the figure appeared behind Dohnaseek and gave him a quick chop to his neck, before flinging him on top of Freed and Valper.
'Well, let's go.' Said the figure, before flying off with Raynare closely following.
-line break-
'That guy flies fast.' Commented Rias in exhaustion, as they finally reached the point where Raynare was fighting, a few seconds after she and the figure took off.
'Well, we are almost there now.' Commented Kiba.
-line break-
'I hate devils even more right now than ever!' Shouted Xenovia, as she kept running, trying to catch up to everyone else.
-line break-
Issei roared once again, before appearing behind Kokabiel and bit into one of Kokabiel's wings, before viciously tearing it out: and then swallowing it whole. Kokabiel cried out in agony but was given no rest, as Issei slashed through all the wings on Kokabiel's right side, leaving him with only four wings, but not for long, as Issei viciously tore into his back with his claws, tearing the remaining four wings out of his back.
Kokabiel cursed in pain and stumbled away, before creating a dozen light spears, each the size of a fully grown man, before throwing them at Issei. The jewels covering Issei glowed, before many dragon arms burst from them, forcing Issei to hunch down slightly as the spears approached him. In a flash, the arms shot out and destroyed the light spears, turning them into nothingness.
'W-what is this?' Asked Kokabiel in fear, as the arms receded back into the jewels along Issei's body, before swords burst from his form.
Issei charged at Kokabiel and swung himself around like a beast trying to hack and slash at Kokabiel.
Kokabiel created two light spears and used them to parry every attack he could, being successful for the most part, until one snuck past him and gouged into his shoulder.
'Curse you!' Shouted Kokabiel, but his eyes widened in fear when the mouth on Issei's armour opened and a blast of electricity was shot from his mouth, which struck Kokabiel and slowly electrocuted him.
Kokabiel dropped down to his knees and Issei flew higher into the sky. If Issei was still aware of what he was doing, he might have found their new position ironic, given Kokabiel's previous taunts.
'Sacred Fire!' Shouted Issei, as a wave of blistering flames imbued with a slight holy element slammed into Kokabiel.
Kokabiel could do nothing but scream as the flames slowly ate away at him, while he was painfully damaged by the pure light element running through the flames.
After a few seconds, Issei stopped his attack, as a dishevelled Kokabiel rose back to his feet.
'Insolent human, I have stood face to face with God, you are nothing to me!' Shouted Kokabiel in rage, as he created a spear of light with enough strength to destroy Japan.
Issei had no idea what was happening, but knew Kokabiel, his prey, was preparing a big attack and thus, Issei responded in kind.
Issei outstretched both palms out in front of him and held them together fingers facing outward and started to build up a miniscule red ball in between them.
'Perish!' Shouted Kokabiel as he launched his spear.
Issei growled in animalistic fury and the tiny ball of energy in-between his hands exploded outwards to meet Kokabiel's light spear.
The attacks clashed for a moment, but seeing as how Kokabiel's attack was more focused, it started to cut through Issei's until it tore right through Issei's attack.
'AUGHHH!'
Along with Issei's left eye.
Issei thrashed about in the sky, clutching his face, the spear passed right through and out of his orbital socket burning through the lower portion of his eye, but thankfully, missing his brain, as it grazed just over his ear, missing it by a hairs breadth.
'HAHAHA pathetic!' The senior fallen angel mocked, seeing the results of his attack.
His laughter was abruptly cut off however, when a being appeared near the Red Dragon.
The being clutched Issei's face between its hands and Issei slowly fell asleep.
Raynare and the other mysterious figure arrived to see Issei fall asleep, shortly after which, Rias and the rest of the devils, minus Asia, along with Irina and Xenovia, arrived to see Issei covered in draconic armour, being held by a figure at least a full head shorter than him.
The figure turned to look at everyone else, before saying five words and leaving, stunning everyone.
'He is coming with me.' Said the Gothic Lolita styled figure, before disappearing in a cloud of snakes.
So…do you all now see why I was so excited for this chapter?
So much stuff was thrown in here and believe it or not, even the little things thrown in are and will be important. This chapter is probably going to be the most important chapter in the entire story for at least another twenty chapters or so.
I hope you all liked what happened, and I really hope that at least one thing that happened in this chapter surprised you all, even with the massive foreshadowing I had thrown in earlier.
Now since this worked so well for NSUU, welcome to the second round of Kyuubi's corner where I take an aspect of fanfiction, usually specific to the category of the story and tear it to shreds in an attempt to improve fanfiction and get some things off my back.
Today's/Tonight's issue is: All Dxd stories, crossover or otherwise and their obsession with Rias as the main pairing.
Ok so first thing is first, Rias is hot, powerful, kind, loyal, rich, likes to sleep nude and an otaku, basically the wet dream of every male everywhere. However, all the same, she is used more than the right and/or left arm of said males. SERIOUSLY!
First let me set the scene in the non-crossover category.
Issei is a powerful angel. Main pairing: Rias.
Issei is a powerful fallen angel. Main pairing: Rias.
Issei is a powerful devil. Main pairing: Rias.
Issei is a powerful Youkai/dragon/mythical creature. Main pairing: Rias.
OC with history with any other member of her peerage or extended family. MAIN. PAIRING. RIAS!
Then there are the crossovers, I am mostly speaking in relation to the Naruto ones.
Naruto knew Akeno in the past. Main pairing: Rias.
Naruto given new life by either Ophis, Great Red or both. Main pairing: Rias.
Naruto has history with Serafall, Grayfia or some other older devil. Main pairing: Rias.
Am I the only one who finds it weird that no matter what, no matter who the protagonist is, the main pairing is ALWAYS RIAS?
Like I said, I actually quite like Rias, even if she has the least amount of emotional depth in comparison to her other peerage members, who have triumphed over much harsher hardships than her.
Honestly though, Rias is out of place in most of these scenarios. These are just some alternate options that are possible which would make more sense.
Issei is a powerful angel. Main pairing: Irina, Gabriel or Xenovia.
Issei is a powerful fallen angel. Main pairing: Raynare, Kalawarner, Mittelt or Akeno
Issei is a powerful devil. Main pairing: Serafall, Sona, Ravel.
Issei is a powerful Youkai/dragon/mythical creature. Main pairing: Koneko, Rossweisse, Kunou, Yasaka, Kuroka.
OC with history with any other member of her peerage or extended family. Main pairing: anyone OC has history with.
Either most of the people writing Dxd fics are hardcore Rias fan-boys OR no one is willing to try something new. Honestly, if I see a story which is main or only pairing Rias… the summary needs to be gold encrusted diamonds to make me even look at it.
So please, to all the Dxd readers and writers out there, please try something other than Rias; you might find your story is a flop or an absolute hit, but you will never know if you never try.
With that, I wrap up the second episode of Kyuubi's corner, please let me know what you thought of it and the chapter as well and as always, thanks for reading.
