Here's the next episode! Enjoy!
The sky cleared of clouds, making it orange as the sun was setting. In the temple, Issei and Akihiko sat before the multi-winged angel, who was standing in front of them. The raven-haired man chuckled and was smiling, his eyes closed. The perverted girl just looked up at Michael nervously. There that stood before her was a beautiful woman, so beautiful that she was pretty jealous. Still...
She's the Chief of the Fallen Angels? she thought. She has to be important...but why- Her thinking stopped when she felt a tinge of sharp pain through her body and goosebumps rising, making her flinch a little. She looked at her hands and thought, My body feels like it's on edge... She then looked up at the blonde-haired angel. But it's not from her.
Suddenly, a bright flash appeared, making Issei shield her eyes. When it dimmed a little, she looked and saw a floating and magnificent-looking sword, making her jaw drop in awe. "Hyoudou Issei-chan," Michael began.
"Y-yes, m'am?" she replied.
"This is a Dragon Slayer, the Holy Sword that can slay any dragon, Ascalon." She just looked at it in sheer awe. A sword like this...that can kill dragons?
Episode #10: Various Three-Way Deadlocks!-Part 1
"This can really kill dragons?" the female pervert asked the angel.
"A Dragon Slayer can be someone whose job is to eliminate dragons or a weapon that does the same," Michael replied.
That's why I'm feeling on edge, Issei thought, her gauntlet now appearing.
"I was thinking that I should give this to you."
She gasped, her eyes widening. "Wait, to me?"
The beautiful angel nodded. "To be precise, I want you to assimilate it into your Sacred Gear. There are rumors that you are the weakest host in history, so I thought that this weapon will be a perfect fit for you."
Issei sighed and looked down in shame. "I'm the weakest...it's not like I'm not even trying..." She then looked up at her. "But why?"
Michael's face turned serious. "After the Great War, there was no more large-scale fighting. However, there is still small-fighting between the Three Great Powers now."
That made the female pervert remember the fight with Kokabiel, frowning more. "That was considered small, huh...?" she muttered to herself.
"If this continues, then someday, everything will be destroyed. Or even, a different power will attack before that happens."
Issei looked a bit puzzled. "A different power?"
"Yes. There are mythological systems outside of the Three Great Powers, so I believe that the upcoming summit will be a good opportunity."
"A good opportunity for what?"
The beautiful angel gave her a smile. "For the Great Three Powers to join forces and stop all of the useless fighting."
"Stop the useless fighting..." It made some sense to her.
"The last time the Powers joined up with one another was when the Red and White Female Dragons disturbed the battlefield." Issei remembered Benyw talking about that. She never really thought that they actually worked together to bring her and Alba down! "This is why I am asking you, Red Dragon Empress, to allow us to join forces once again." The female pervert looked serious, thinking about the offer.
"Issei-chan~," Akihiko said, looking at her. "You should accept her offer and give her thanks~."
She did agree with him, nodding. "Alright, Akihiko-san, whatever you say," she replied to him as she stood up. Michael gave her a warming smile before offering the sword to her. It floated towards her. She took a deep breath and looked down at her gauntlet, asking, "Is this even possible? Assimilating with a Holy Sword?"
"This Sacred Gear does what its host pleases," Benyw answered, the orb glowing. "If it's what you want, then it IS possible."
The perverted girl looked up at the sword again, her face still serious. If it's what I want... she thought to herself. She took some deep breaths since she had no idea what this will be like. Michael and Akihiko gave her encouraging looks.
"Hey, partner!" the dragon said to her in an encouraging voice. "Just focus your thoughts on the Sacred Gear."
She nodded, understanding it. "Yes, Benyw," she replied as she grabbed the grip of the sword with her gauntlet.
"Now match your wavelength to the Holy Sword!" She did so, the sword now glowing even more, covering itself in a sheet of golden light. Her gauntlet also glowed, being more red. She could feel the power coming into her veins, but...it burned. The raven-haired male and even the beautiful angel looked worried for her. She decided to let out a scream before the glowing dimmed a little.
She now opened her eyes and had them widened when she saw the blade of the sword sticking out of her gauntlet. She now had a look of awe. "That's amazing...they fused into one!"
Michael smiled and giggled before saying, "I have done what I have come to do, so I will take my leave."
The brown-haired female thought of something quickly, so she exclaimed, "W-wait! I need to ask you something!"
The archangel frowned at her a little. "My apologies, but I do not have the time to answer it right now." She then smiled at her reassuringly. "However, during or after the summit, you can ask me there."
She sighed, putting her free hand on her chest. "Do you promise?"
Michael nodded. "I promise, Hyoudou Issei-chan." She then spread out her several wings and disappeared in a holy glow, a cross appearing before dimming out of sight. If there was one thing Issei would describe Michael, it was kind. Very kind. She was an angel, but she had never met any girl so kind in her life. She then looked down at Ascalon sticking out of her gauntlet. This could slay dragons, right? That meant that she could have a chance against Valina...
The dark-haired man chuckled, feeling happy for her and glad that she accepted it. Hopefully, she would use it well.
...
Later, he and Issei were sitting at a table together. He was pouring tea for her. "So...you and Michael did that to the sword here?" she asked him.
"That's right~," he answered. "We had conducted the ceremony to convert Ascalon's specifications here." He then passed the filled cup of tea for the perverted girl.
"Thanks." She stared into it, thinking of something. She was reminded of the battle with Kokabiel...so she remembered one specific moment. She looked at Akihiko and asked, "Um...can I ask you something?"
He nodded. "Of course~. What is it~?"
She sighed, looked serious, and said, "When you were fighting Kokabiel, she said that...you were the possessor of Baraqiel's power." He gasped, looking shocked that she remembered that. "You called her a bitch...why?" He looked down and frowned, looking completely solemn at the memories that now dawned to him. "Isn't she your mother? One of the leaders of the fallen angels?"
"Yes," he answered in a serious voice, surprising her a little. "I am the son of Baraqiel, a fallen angel leader, and a human." He took a deep breath before he continued. "My father was from a shrine family. One day, while he was working, he saved a wounded Baraqiel, leader of the fallen angels, because he thought she was beautiful and pure-hearted. Through their relationship at the time, Baraqiel became pregnant with me." Issei began to feel sad for him. He clearly looked heartbroken while talking about this.
"I-I'm sorry if I asked something weird, I just..." Curious about why he was the son of a fallen angel.
The raven-haired male stood up and turned his back against her. He took off the top of his shrine outfit, revealing his true wings. She gasped. He had one devil wing...and one fallen angel wing, scattering a few of its feathers in the air. "Th-those wings...!" she exclaimed, pointing at them.
He sadly smiled, having his eyes closed, and replied, "Yes, these wings, one of a devil and one of a fallen angel. I have both...both of these unclean wings. I met Richard and became a devil because I didn't like them. However, the result was this: having a combination of both...being a revolting being." He chuckled sadly while Issei continued to look sad for him. "They go well with the impure blood in my body."
"Akihiko-san..." the brown-haired girl murmured before he turned to her, his sculpted chest clearly to be seen.
"Issei-chan, how do you feel knowing all of that?" he asked with a sorrowful face. She gasped at that question, wondering why he asked. "Don't you hate fallen angels?" Now she was absolutely shocked. Now she knew...flashes of Raynark appearing across her mind...when he was 'Yuuto', when he revealed his true self, when she was crying over Asher's death...she did hate him. And Azalea... "They hurt both you and Asher-kun. They even took your lives and tried to destroy your beloved town. You can't possibly think of them in a positive light."
She sighed and looked down. There was Raynark, then Azalea, then the others she's seen...fuck them. "I do hate fallen angels," she answered. Akihiko closed his eyes and sighed, knowing she would answer like that. However, she looked up at him and added, "But I like you, Akihiko-san!" His eyes shot wide open, making him gasp in surprise. She truly did like him, despite him being half of what she hated? "Sorry I asked you something like that..." She then twirled a part of her hair in embarrassment. "I guess it was a little too insensitive..."
"But, that's not what I'm talking about," he replied, looking a bit puzzled now. "I am the son of a fallen angel-"
She stood up and cried out, "That doesn't matter! I still like you!"
He looked surprised again, blushing a little and looking down, smiling nervously. "But I might be pretending to be kind to you so that you won't hate me, you know?"
"But you're not that kind of person, Akihiko-san!"
"No, I'm sure I am. I am a terrible man."
"That's not true!" He looked up at her with a surprised look once again. "To me, you've always been a kind senior." His eyes widened at that compliment, not expecting it. "I mean, I do hate fallen angels and all, but for you, it doesn't matter! You're still you, Akihiko-san, the best Vice-President! After hearing your story, I still like you!" He still looked surprised, his eyes widened and his blush seen. The female pervert rubbed the back of her head. "So, I guess what I'm trying to say is...there's no real problem here." He felt so flattered by what she said, his heart beating fast and his feelings for her amplified. He smiled and made his wings disappear.
"I think that's right...right?" the female pervert continued, wondering if she worded her thoughts correctly. It would be embarrassing if she didn't.
Akihiko kept smiling on him and said in his normal voice, "That does it~." She looked at him with a confused look. "You said that to me, so now I have to be serious~." A tear escaped one of his eyes, dripping down from his cheek.
She looked even more embarrassed and replied, "So I did say something weird after all?" She sighed again and added, "I wish I was more considerate though. I'm not the most perfect girl in the world." She didn't see the mischievous...yet seductive grin on his face and his foot stepping forward. "I'm sorry, Akihiko-sa-" Suddenly, she got cut off when he suddenly pinned her to the floor. Now he was on top of her...like before, making her blush hard.
"I've decided..." he breathed out. "I've finally decided..."
"D-decided what?" the female pervert asked in a small voice.
"Issei-chan~..." His sculpted chest rested against hers, amplifying her blush.
"Y-yes..?"
He put one of his hands on her cheek. "I don't mind being third-best~."
That surprised the hell out of her. "Th-third?!"
"Yes, third~." His face was inches away from hers. "I believe this is a good position~." He pressed himself against her more, making her moan quietly in...arousal. "It heats me up thinking about it~, like having an affair~."
"Wh-wh-what are you talking about?"
He chuckled at her. "Issei-chan~, you can come and be spoiled more~." She gasped, knowing exactly what context he said that in. "I can even do things to you the President wouldn't~."
Her lecherous face came on when he said that. "R-really?!" God, the things she would love of him to do to her...
"Issei-chan~, can you please call me just by my first name~?"
Call him just by his name? "B-but I can't speak to you so casually."
He chuckled once again and whispered into her ear, "Not even just once~?" That made her entirely hot, from top to bottom.
"A...Akihiko..." she whispered to him. He looked at her and smiled. She said that in a voice that made him more hot and it was cute.
"Oh, Issei-chan~." He then pressed his lips against her neck while pressing his chest down against hers. She gasped and moaned at that action.
I can feel his chest AND he's kissing my neck?! she thought happily and lecherously. It's like I'm in heaven~! It would be more like heaven if other guys did that to her though.
He got his lips off of her neck and looked at her again, being seductive. "Issei-chan~, when we're alone, can you call me by my first name~?"
Her entire face heated up by just the look of his face. S-so sexy...like Shigeo-kun in Seduction Boys~! Ugh, it's making me so crazy and I don't care! For now, she just wanted to live in this moment, a moment she wanted for a long time.
Done! What do you guys think?
I still like writing scenes with Akihiko...nothing'll change that!
