Kon'nichiwa [Translation of Hello]
Eventually, their time in the game dimension ended and everyone was sent out. Ichigo ordered everyone to meet up three hours before slowly decrease the time acceleration so that their body doesn't suffer from the after-effects of this type of training (1). Ichigo told the peerage that he would be unavailable to train them for a few days. MacArthur agreed to help the peerage for those days, mainly focusing on magical training and a little bit oh the physical side. Ichigo gave Rias his phone number if anything happens in the few days.
3-DAY TIME SKIP…
Ichigo walked with Eu to Kuoh Academy. Ichigo used the three days to get Kyōka and Hōgyoku to help Eu with her powers. Ichigo told Eu that to keep her armor on so that no one knows she has obtained mastery of her powers. Hōgyoku was able to modify the enchantments on Eu's armor so that she can use about 20% of her powers even with the armor on. When the two walked into the Club, they saw that the club now had a new member.
"Yo," Ichigo said.
"Hello everyone." Eu wrote.
"Kon'nichiwa Ichigo-sensei. Kon'nichiwa Eu-san." The club said.
"Now who is this?" Ichigo asked looking at Asia. Asia immediately got scared and hid behind Issei.
"Asia. It's alright." Issei reassured. "He was the one who trains us to be stronger. But, had some matters to attend to a few days ago."
"Kon'nichiwa. My name is Asia Argento. I was a nun before branded as a heretic and fled to the Fallen Angels. I got rescued by Issei-Kun and Rias-san rebirth me as a Devil." Asia said.
"Hello, Asia. I hope you are adapting to the change well." He said.
"Yes, I am." She replied.
"What piece did Rias use?" Ichigo asked.
"I used the Bishop piece," Rias said.
"Hello, Buchou." Everyone said except Ichigo who went with his usual "Yo."
"Hello." Eu wrote.
"Hello everyone." she greeted. "Ichigo-sensei I didn't know you would be here."
"Sorry," Ichigo said. "So what is the plan today?" Ichigo asked.
"Well, we are planning to go to the Familiar Forest," Rias said.
"Where?" Issei and Asia asked.
"Well, you two remember yesterday that I said that was the last time you two will be passing out summoning flyers?" Rias asked.
"Yes. I remember you telling us." Asia said.
"Well, familiars are the ones who pass out flyers while we answer them," Rias explained.
"Ok," Issei said.
"Ichigo-sensei, my brother said that he promised you a familiar as well. Is that correct?" Rias asked.
"He did. But, I didn't expect it so soon." Ichigo said.
"Do I get one?" Eu wrote.
"Yes if you find one," Rias said.
"Alright then. Let's go!" Issei said. Suddenly someone knocked on the clubroom door.
"Come in!" Akeno said. The door opened and revealed Sona Sitri and the group of people.
"Excuse us," Sitri said as she entered.
"Th...That lady...!" Issei said.
"Who is she?" Asia asked.
"Shitori Souna-senpai, the student body president here. The one next to her is the VP, Shinra Tsubaki-senpai. And wait a minute; they've brought the whole student council with them." Issei said.
"What are you all doing here?" Rias asked.
"We've both acquired more peerage members, so we wanted to introduce everyone properly." Sona Sitri said.
"Peerage members... She can't mean..." Issei said.
"Her real name is Sōna Shitorī. She is the head of one of the top class Devil clans." Akeno said.
"S-so there are other devils at this school?" Issei asked.
"Didn't you tell them about us, Rias-senpai? It also concerns me that fellow devils didn't notice our existence." Genshirou Saji said.
"Saji, we have decided to turn a blind eye on each other. It is only natural that Hyoudou-Kun would not know about us." Shitorī said.
"Wait, aren't you the guy who recently joined the student council?" Issei asked. "Aren't you from Class 2-C..."
"Saji Genshirou." Shitorī interrupted. "He's my pawn."
"This is my pawn, Hyoudou Issei. And my bishop, Asia Argento." Rias said.
"So you're a pawn too? We're so similar!" Issei said.
"To be called 'similar to the swine whose part of the most perverted trio on campus my pride has been deeply wounded," Saji replied.
"What the fuck was that, jackass!?" Issei yelled.
"Oh, you want to fight?" Saji replied.
"I may be a beginner, but, I've already got four pieces under my belt," Saji replied.
"Saji cut it out," Shitorī said. "You might want to know that he claimed 'eight' pieces."
"Eight... but isn't that all of them?" Saji asked. "I can't believe it. Not an unremarkable guy likes this..." Saji said.
"Shut up!" Issei yelled.
"I'm sorry, Hyoudou-Kun, Argento-san. I hope that you all get along well as fellow pieces. Right, Saji." Shitorī said.
"...Yes. Nice to meet you." Saji said and raised his hand out.
"I'm so pleased to meet you," Asia replied.
"The pleasure is all mines! I'm honored to meet a pretty girl like you." Saji said. Issei immediately broke the handshake and began one with Saji. It looked like Issei was trying to break Saji's fingers.
"Saji-kun! I too am pleased to meet you! Let me rephrase that, if you lay a finger on her, you're fucking dead." Issei said.
"Enough!" Ichigo yelled. Getting annoyed with this. "Now then why are you here?" Ichigo asked.
"Why you!" Saji said. Letting go of Issei's hand and pointed at Ichigo. "And who do you think you are!"
"My name is Kurosaki Ichigo. Have you heard of it Shitorī?" Ichigo asked. The entire Student Council group minus Siji gasped.
"Wait… the same Kurosaki Ichigo who fought and defeated Aizen?" Shitorī asked
"Yep," Ichigo said. Immediately Shitorī bowed down towards Ichigo and apologizes.
"I am sorry Kurosaki-sama for letting my pawn be rude towards you."
"Master…" Siji said surprised seeing his master bow down to this person.
"Now that this little argument is settled can we go to that forest?" Ichigo asked.
"What forest?" Shitorī asked.
"Well, both my pawn and bishop earned the rights for a familiar," Rias said.
"Well. My pawn also earned that right." Shitorī said.
"In that case, how about we have a duel to determine who gets to go to the forest first?" Rias suggested.
"A duel?" Shitorī asked.
"Whoever wins gets permission to go to the forest," Rias said. "Well...Ichigo-sensei and Eu-san will be going with either party."
"I hope you didn't have a Rating Game in mind..." Shitorī said.
"I would never. For starters, I could never get permission for that." Rias said.
"That's true," Shitorī said. "And besides, there's your health to consider."
"That has nothing to do with it," Rias argued back.
"Since this place is a high school, why don't you settle it with sports?" Ichigo suggested.
"That sounds good. But, which game?" Shitorī said.
"Dodgeball," Ichigo said.
"Why?" Shitorī and Rias said.
"Because everyone is stronger than a normal human, any sports equipment for any other game will likely be destroyed. As well as I can use the trainer to make an anti-magic room to prevent anyone from trying to cheat." Ichigo said.
"Trainer?" Shitorī asked.
"A device that I have which allows me to help with their training," Ichigo said. "Everyone go change into PE gear while I make the Anti-Magic room and I will teleport everyone in it," Ichigo stated as he started to tinker with the Trainer. Soon everyone filed out of the room leaving Eu and Ichigo. "Eu you fine staying outside." She gave him a nod and took out a book. "Seven Pillars of Wisdom: A Triumph, good book choice," Ichigo said. Ten minutes later, everyone returned. "Everyone ready?"
"Yes, Ichigo-sensei/sama," The entire group said.
"All right then. Eu, here you do it." Ichigo gave the device to Eu. She then pressed the necessary buttons and the entire group got sent to the Anti-Magic Room.
Scene Change: Trainer: Anti-Magic Room
Ichigo then took the time to explain the rules of Dodgeball as well as a demonstration for people who never played the game Since Shitorī's peerage has more people, Ichigo told her to pick out her six players to match up with Rias to make it a little fairer. She was fine with it and her team is now herself, Shinra Tsubaki, Tsubasa Yura, Tomoe Meguri, Reya Kusaka, and Genshirou Saji. "Ready?" Ichigo asked. Everyone gave a yes. "5 SECOND COUNTDOWN START!"
"TEAM GREMORY VS TEAM SITRI!" The speaker blasted. "5! 4! 3! 2! 1! START!"The game only lasted 10 minutes with Rias team winning. Mainly due to Team Sitri not used to not being able to use their magic. "YAY!" Everyone in team Gremory said. Ichigo then ordered the game to send everyone out.
Scene Change: Clubhouse
The members ended up having a small celebration with juice for defeating the School Council. "Time to find your familiar," Rias said.
"Right now?" Asia asked. As Akeno formed a teleportation seal and Ichigo was given the coordinates and info on the meeting place.
"You can only find 'him' on nights with a full moon," Rias answered.
"Him?" Issei asked.
"The Familiar Master," Rias said. Soon the room glowed red and the group disappeared while Eu and Ichigo went via Garganta. Soon the group meets up in a dark forest.
"What is this place?" Issei asked.
"It is the forest where familiar are created," Akeno said
"We found our familiar here," Yuuto said. Koneko agreed.
"I'm not surprised... looks like anything might pop up around here, "Issei said.
"Th... this is true," Asia said.
"Got it!" someone said.
"Who's there?" Issei asked.
"I'm Familiar Master Zatouji!" Zatouji replied.
"Familiar..." Issei started.
"Master?" Asia finished.
"What a lovely full moon tonight," Zatouji said. "The perfect night for familiar hunting. With me by your side, you can get any familiar ya want!"
"He is a professional in regards to familiar," Akeno said.
"Now then, what kind of familiar do you wish for?" Zatouji asked. "A fast one? A strong one? Or a poisonous one?"
"Let's see... any cute familiar? Particularly female?" Issei asked. Ichigo then punched Issei in the head.
"Tsk-tsk-tsk. Nothing like that." Zatouji replied. "A familiar should be brave and strong! A familiar that can cut his power in half and benefit you..." Zatouji said to Issei.
"Umm, I would also like a cute familiar," Asia asked unconsciously using the doggy eyes.
"Okay, dear!" Zatouji said instantly. Ichigo gave a quick chuckle. Remembering the time Yuzu and sometime Karin would use the doggy eyes. "Yuzu... Karin... I wonder how they are." Ichigo thought.
"Thank you, kind sir!" Asia replied. Issei got annoyed and about to argue with Zatouji until Ichigo put his hand on Issei's shoulders forcing him to back down.
"Now what about you two?" Zatouji asked.
"Well... I read that familiars work best when they can feel their partner's energy. And then follow that pull towards them. Correct?" Ichigo asked.
"That is the older method of finding familiars. But, that only works if you are strong. Are you two strong?" Zatouji asked.
"Yes, we are," Ichigo said. While Eu nodded.
"Alright then. Since you two wish to use the older method, you two will do it at the end and the center of the forest." Zatouji told the two.
"Ok," Ichigo said. Soon the entire group began walking in the forest. While they were walking around, they found a Sprite Dragon that Asia decided as a familiar and named Rassei. Rai because of lightning and because of Issei's name. With more walking, they couldn't find any familiar for Issei. Zatouji gave up on Issei and shifted the group to the center of the forest. At the center there lies a stump.
"Now then for you two who wish to use this method must release all binding of powers in place and sit on the stump. Then flare your power for about ten seconds from there, you will sit until your potential familiar flare their power at you. This stump is connected to other trees in this forest. The stump allows more potential familiars to sense your power. In turn, it also helps guide those familiars here." Zatouji explained. He turned to Ichigo and Eu. "Who wants to start?"
"I will go first." Eu wrote.
"Alright then. I'll hold your armor." Ichigo said. While Eu began to take her armor off.
"Why is she taking her armor off?" Issei asked.
"Her armor is a power suppressor due to how strong her powers are," Ichigo answered.
"Ok, Miss. Are you ready?" Zatouji asked. Eu nodded and began to flare her power. Her power shot up towards the sky in a column of purple. Everyone except Ichigo fell on their faces as Eu flared her power for the needed ten seconds.
"Eu. You are done." Ichigo yelled. Eu heard what Ichigo said and stop flaring her powers. Everyone got up and dusted himself off.
"Wow. She is that strong." Rias said in surprise.
"Yep," Ichigo said. Eu then got off the stump. "You got a familiar coming over here," Ichigo asked. Eu nodded her head. "Let's wait till Eu's familiar arrive before I flare mine."
"Why?" Issei asked. When Issei fought with Ichigo his powers felt nothing like Eu's.
"Issei that was about 1% of my power," Ichigo said. Issei jaw dropped as how much power Ichigo has. Soon they heard a rustling from the trees. From the trees, they see a black bird flew out of the trees and landed on Eu's arm. It bowed to Eu. Eu then lowered her head to simulate a bow. Zatouji gasped.
"What is it?" Rias asked.
"Impossible." Zatouji said.
"What?" Everyone except Ichigo asked.
"That bird is a Phoenix," Zatouji said.
"A PHOENIX!" Everyone screamed except for Ichigo and Eu who are entertaining the Phoenix.
"I thought they were extinct," Akeno said.
"I thought too. So now we need to form the familiar bond." Zatouji said.
"Can you write down the words she needs to say," Ichigo asked as he hands Zatouji Eu's notepad and pen.
"Why?"Zatouji asked.
"Eu has a curse placed on her voice. It causes her powers to go out of control even with the armor limiting her powers." Ichigo explained.
"That is fine," Zatouji said and he wrote down the words Eu needed to say. Zatouji then handed Eu back her notepad and pen. Ichigo sent her to the game dimension to complete the ritual. A few minutes later she's back out with her Phoenix on her shoulder.
"Yūyami (Dusk)." Eu wrote.
"So that is her name?" Ichigo asked. Eu nodded. "Everyone. Judging by everyone's impression on the floor, if I flare my power likely everyone will die." Ichigo bluntly said. Everyone looked at Ichigo in shock. "I will teleport everyone in the game dimension so keep you all safe," Ichigo said. Everyone agreed. Ichigo sent the group into the game dimension and walked towards the stump.
"Ready?" Ichigo asked. All the spirits yes. Ichigo changed to his soul form and sat down on the stump and began lowering his power. Due to Ichigo's power being a higher dimensional tier, Ichigo needs to lower his reiatsu for it to be felt by anything. A sea of power descended to the entire forest. The sea of power was in four colors. White with some blue while the other one is black with a bit of red. Ichigo counted 10 seconds and stopped the power flare. Ichigo then sensed two beings that wish to be with Ichigo but is bounded and can't leave their respective areas. Ichigo decided to go pick them up first and perform the ritual once he got both of them. The first one he found was a cave. As he walked in the cave, he found a black egg giving off a crimson glow (2). Ichigo went and picked it up and it stopped glowing red. Ichigo then went to find the other one. He found it next to a tree where the moonlight shined down at the egg. The egg was white and gave off a bluish glow (3). Ichigo then went back to the stump and placed the two eggs next to each other. "In the name of Ichigo Kurosaki, I bind thee to me as my familiar!" Ichigo yelled and the two green squares appeared to both. Once the green squares vanished, the eggs hatched and two dragons escaped the egg and climbed on Ichigo's shoulders. They both look like Rassei but with different colors. One was white and sky blue all over with blue eyes. While the other is all black with red eyes. "For the white one, I am going to name you. Wait, are either you male?" Ichigo asked the two baby dragons. Both the white and black dragon growled at him. "Looks like both of you are female." Ichigo pointed at the white one. "Your name is Kisara." The newly dubbed Kisara (4) growled happily. Ichigo then pointed to the black dragon. "I'm going to name you Valiona (5). The newly dubbed Valiona growled happily with its new name. Ichigo then brought back the gang and Zatouji. They now see Ichigo with two baby dragons on his shoulder. Zatouji fainted when he saw the two dragons. Ichigo kicked him a few times to get him up.
"I thought I saw the two Celestial Dragons," Zatouji said.
"So I guess these two are connected to something called the True Heavenly Dragons." Ichigo thought.
"EXPLAIN NOW," Ichigo said.
"I do not know much but some texts say that there were two dragons that were even stronger than the Two Heavenly Dragon.
"Well thank you for your help Zatouji." Rias thanked and the entire group disappeared.
Scene Change: Club House
Everyone arrived safely at the Clubhouse. Ichigo walked with Eu, Issei, and Asia back to their house respectively.
"Hey Issei and Asia, can you two come over to my house for a second?" Ichigo asked.
"Sure," Issei said.
"Ok, Ichigo-sensei," Asia said. They soon arrived at Ichigo's house and they all sat down on the couch.
"What do you need to talk about Sensei?" Issei asked.
"I don't need to talk to you Issei," Ichigo said.
"Why did you ask for me and Asia to come here," Issei questioned.
"Ddraig I want to talk to you," Ichigo said.
"Very well then," Ddraig said.
"Who said that!" Asia asked. Ichigo pointed at Issei's arm.
"Now then. Protector of the Balance, you want information on the two baby dragons that are now your familiars." Ddraig asked.
"So you can hear conversations from the outside," Ichigo said. "Can you manifest in the real world?
"I do not know if it is possible," Ddraig said.
"Issei just will him into existence," Ichigo said.
"It's not as if you can will spirits from objects in your soul out here," Issei said.
"You shouldn't challenge King. Dragon Boy." Zangetsu said as he manifest. Soon Yhwach, Kyōka, and Hōgyoku manifested.
"Hello Zangetsu, Yhwach, Kyōka and Hōgyoku." Ichigo greeted. Eu waved at the four. Issei and Asia were jaws dropped. "Hōgyoku, do you think you can help Ddraig manifest himself?" Ichigo asked.
"I do not know. But let me try. Boy, summon your Sacred Gear." Hōgyoku said. Issei compiled and summoned his Sacred Gear. Dragon Booster! Hōgyoku then placed her hands on the Sacred Gear and was able to visually see how this Scared Gear worked. A Sacred Gear is a bastard version of a Zanpakutō. Some seals prevent the dragon from leaving the gear. There are others where it prevents the dragon from possessing the host. She found a seal where it prevents the dragon from manifesting and another one to teach his partner how to use the Boosted Gear. She used her power to destroy the two seals. From the outside, two of the red scales turned purple. "It is done Dragon. Now try and manifest yourself." From the Sacred Gear, the green gem began to glow and everyone soon heard Manifest! The green glow died down and we see a red suit of armor (6) in front of everyone.
"Freedom! It has been so long!" Ddraig said.
"Now then. Tell us about the Celestial Dragons." Ichigo said.
"The two Celestial Dragons never said what their names were. The white one, the one you dubbed Kisara, her titles were the White Empress, Maiden of Destruction and Messiah of Light. While the Black one, the one you dubbed as Valiona, her titles were the Black Empress, Maiden of Infernos and Messiah of Darkness." Ddraig said.
"Thank you Ddraig. Your reward is that of your freedom. It is in the hands of Issei, he now has the power to manifest you any time he wants. As well as you have the power to teach your partner now." Ichigo said.
"Thank you. Thank you. I can now have a bigger impact on my host." Ddraig said as he disappeared into the Boosted Gear. Eventually, the two went back to Issei's house. Ichigo told his Zanpakutō spirits that he was going to sleep. Ichigo changed into sleeping attire and went to bed. Soon Kisara and Valiona crawled into his bed and slept next to their new master.
Ichigo woke up the next day seeing something quite adorable. Eu was hugging his left arm like a body pillow, while Kisara and Valiona were lying on his stomach. Ichigo turned his head to the left and saw Yūyami sleeping by the ledge. Ichigo chuckled seeing this. Ichigo used his right hand to softly nudge Eu to wake her up.
"Five more minutes." She said. Ichigo felt her powers trying to force him to comply but he did it again. Eu opened her eyes and gave Ichigo the dreaded doggy eyes.
"Eu. Do you want breakfast, yes or no?" Ichigo challenged Eu.
"Breakfast," Eu said admitting defeat and letting go of Ichigo's arm. Ichigo softly picked up Kisara and Valiona and placed them on the bed while Ichigo got up. Ichigo stretched a little and got up to make breakfast. After a delicious breakfast, Ichigo received a mental nudge. Ichigo decided to sit down and see who sent him a mental nudge.
Scene Change: Mindscape
Ichigo opened his eyes and saw all four of his spirits on guard. Ichigo looked at where they were facing and saw a Kushanāda bowing.
"King, he has been here about three hours after you fell asleep,"Zangetsu said.
"Thank you Zangetsu," Ichigo said. Ichigo then turned to the Kushanāda. The Kushanāda started speaking.
"Hello, Jigoku no Kōtei," Kushanāda said.
"Kushanāda, what is your reason for being here?" Ichigo asked.
"My Lord, while we are managing Hell, we found human souls in a pocket dimension in Hell. These souls do not have a hell chain as well as we detect that these souls have not committed enough sins to be sent there." The Kushanāda stated.
"How is this possible?" Ichigo asked.
"We had an investigation going on and we found some type of writing on it. They have the world Burial Doll marked on their body. We had some Kushanāda standby in that area to see what happens. A black portal opened up and deposited the souls there. It took some attempts, but we were able to pinpoint the source of this phenomenon." Kushanāda reported.
"Now then, what do you need me for?" Ichigo asked. "It seems that you handled the problem."
"The problem is that we the Kushanāda cannot leave Hell. The source is outside of Hell and in another universe." the Kushanāda said.
"I see… I will go and deal with this." Ichigo said as he left his mindscape.
"Eu. I have something to do by myself. Please stay safe." Ichigo said and jumped in a red Garganta. Ichigo soon found a Kushanāda. The Kushanāda leads Ichigo to the location. When Ichigo arrived, he saw the black portal depositing another body. Ichigo quickly jumped into the portal.
Scene Change: Asura Cryin' World 1
Ichigo arrived in Japan. This Japan was filled with destruction. Ichigo walked and saw a couple talking.
"So Rit-san, what are going to do with the Asura Machina now that our world and World 2 is saved?" The man asked.
"I do not know. I know for certain that these remaining Asura Machina are too dangerous." The women, Ichigo figured as Rit-san said. "Especially how dangerous it is especially for the burial doll. If the Handler overuses it, the burial doll loses its soul." Ichigo immediately connected the dots. Somehow this Asura Machina is the source of the souls the Kushanāda found. Ichigo went to confront the two scientists.
"So… Run this by me again." Ichigo said. Ichigo was sitting down in some sort of sitting room facing the two scientists.
"We help invented a robot called Asura Machina. It is a machine that requires a human sacrifice known as a burial doll. The human that controls the machine is known as a handler and has often have had a close relationship with his or her burial doll." The man said. The man's name is Naotaka Natsume.
"The Asura Machina was created as a way to fix the world that God has abandoned by making deals with demons." The female explained. Her name is Ritsu Shiozumi. "However, overusing the Asura Machina will cause the burial doll's soul to disappear."
"Well… I found the souls from the burial dolls." Ichigo said.
"WHAT!" they yelled. "How?"
"You know what Hell is correct?" Ichigo asked.
"Their souls ended up in Hell?" Naotaka said.
"Yes," Ichigo said. "You still have their bodies' right?"
"Yes. Their bodies end up in suspended animation as a way to remember their sacrifice." Ritsu said.
"Well… I can bring those souls here so that they can reunite with their bodies." Ichigo said.
"How?" Naotaka.
"Well, I am the boss of the Kushanāda. They are the guardians of Hell. They told me about the strange souls they found appearing in hell." Ichigo said.
"Let's try and fix this," Ritsu said. Ichigo used his power to open the Gates of Hell and brought the souls to the world. Ichigo placed each soul back to their correct bodies. The bodies and souls from World 2 soon disappeared. Ritsu and Naotaka explained that objects from other worlds would return to their original world and their families.
"Now that we got this mess over, I am going back," Ichigo said.
"Wait." The two yelled. They dragged Ichigo over to six briefcases.
"These are the remaining Asura Machina we have." Naotaka started.
"Ichigo we were wondering if you can take these remaining Asura Machines and dispose of them in your universe." Ritsu finished.
"Ok," Ichigo said and grabbed the pile of briefcases. Immediately, Ichigo started to glow purple and a column of purple energy shot from it. Once the purple column disappeared, Ichigo's shadow began to grow larger and then split into six. From those shadows, Kurogane, Shirogane, Hisui, Hagane, Rhodonite, and Bismuth emerged.
"How did they appear?" The two scientists asked. Ichigo walked and opened the chest cavity to Kurogane to see who is in there powering the Asura Machina. When they looked inside, it turns out there was nobody there. They then went to the other five checks inside. All of them were also empty.
"How are all six of them operating?" Naotaka asked.
"I got a theory," Hōgyoku said and manifested herself.
"Who are you?" Ritsu asked.
"I am one of the beings in Ichigo's soul. My name is Hōgyoku." Hōgyoku introduced herself. "From what I was able to see, the Asura Machina is powered by Reiatsu. The Asura Machina uses the burial doll as a source of Reiatsu since the Handler does not know how to channel their Reiatsu to their Asura Machina. When the Handler makes a contract with a demon, the contract helps create a cycle of reiatsu that flows from the Handler to the demon. From there, the Asura Machina opens another path for it to receive reiatsu from the handler." Hōgyoku said. "Due to Ichigo's immense reserves, he can fully control all six Asura Machina without needing a burial doll." Ichigo sighed with this new information
"More power of me to deal with," Ichigo said.
"Well thank you, Ichigo for taking care of our Asura Machina problem." Naotaka joked.
"Well. Looks like our job here is done." Ichigo said and willed the six machines to disappear. The six disappeared into Ichigo's shadow as well as Hōgyoku.
"Wait Ichigo-kun!" Naotaka yelled.
"Yes?" Ichigo replied.
"Ichigo we have one more Asura Machine we ask you to take with you if you wish," Naotaka said.
"And this one is…" Ichigo asked and looked around.
"Up there." He pointed. Ichigo looked up and saw a spaceship."
"Really! A spaceship." Ichigo question.
"Yep. Her name is Uzushio. She is our mother ship for the Asura Machina." Ritsu said. "She also has an automatic repair station of the Asura Machina."
"How am I going to pilot this thing?" Ichigo questioned.
"To keep this project a secret, we created Homunculus to be the crew members," Ritus answered and gave him a remote.
"What is this?" Ichigo asked.
"This is a remote that signals Uzushio to teleport the user to the command center," Ritsu explained.
"Ok then. Anything else?" Ichigo asked. The two shook their head. Ichigo then pressed the button and was teleported to the command center. Ichigo sat down and willed Hells Gate to open once more to allow Uzushio to go through.
"How am I going to store Uzushio?" Ichigo wondered.
"Why don't you put her in your mindscape? It's not as if the six Asura Machina went anywhere." Hōgyoku said.
"Wait. What do you mean?" Ichigo said.
"Ichigo, when the six Asura Machina disappeared, they reappeared in your mindscape,"Kyōka said.
"OK then," Ichigo said and stood up. "HALT!" Ichigo ordered. Uzushio stopped moving. "I want to see every personnel on this ship," Ichigo ordered.
"Yes, sir." The two closest to him replied. "Attention! Captain Kurosaki orders all personnel to meet at the command center. I repeat all personnel to meet at the command center! A few minutes later, Ichigo saw six people standing in front of him.
"My name is Marvelous (7) and I am in charge of Uzushio if Captain Kurosaki is unavailable," Marvelous said.
"My name is Joe Gibken (7) and I am in charge of Uzushio if Marvelous is unavailable," Joe said.
"My name is Ahim de Famille (7) and I am the lookout and navigator," Ahim said.
"My name is Gai Ikari(7) and Luka Millfy (7) and we are in charge of the infantry." They said.
"My name is Don Dogoier(7) and I am the Engineer for Uzushio as well as the Doctor for any reason," Don said.
"Ok then. I will not need Uzushio for a while. What will you do in the meanwhile." Ichigo asked.
"Well… Before we are always on standby waiting for a daughter attack. Since you do not need us, we can probably increase our fleet size." Marvelous answered.
"How?" Ichigo asked.
"Onboard Uzushio, we can produce any material needed. Likely we will orbit around a planet and convert asteroids into material needed to upgrade the fleet." Don said.
"Ok then," Ichigo said.
"Captain," Don called out.
"Yes?" Ichigo asked.
"Captain please hand me the old tracker and your phone." Don requested. Ichigo complied and handed Don the requested objects. "Here you go, Captain." Don handed Ichigo his phone back. Ichigo didn't notice anything different. "Captain. Dial 5501 and we will instantly come to your destination." Don instructed.
"Ok," Ichigo said and willed for the Gates of Hell to open near Saturn. Uzushio flew out of Hell and Ichigo used a Garganta to get back to his house. He arrived and both Kisara and Valiona jumped on him while Eu was reading another book. She smiled at the scene.
"So what happened?" Eu asked.
"I just got seven giant robots in my control," Ichigo said.
"Bullshit," Eu said. Ichigo sighed.
"I'll show you," Ichigo said. "Kyōka, can you come out here and take control of the controller?" Ichigo asked.
"Sure," Kyōka said and manifested herself. Ichigo handed Kyōka the trainer and she teleported them into the game dimension.
"COME KUROGANE!" Ichigo yelled. His shadow immediately grew longer and bigger. More obscure than the darkness coming out from the abyss that is the shadow cast by the light of science! An ominous voice resonates as Kurogane slowly rose from his shadow.
"Eu, do you think I am lying?" Ichigo asked.
"No… can I see the others?" She asked.
"Fine," Ichigo said. "RISE SHIROGANE!" Ichigo yelled. His shadow once again grew longer and bigger.
"Darker than darkness, emerging from the abyss, that is the sword that judges the shadow of science! The ominous voice resonates as Shirogane slowly rose from his shadow.
"FREEZE HISUI!" Ichigo yelled. His shadow once again grew longer and bigger.
"More silent than the darkness sleeping at the sea of ice that is the shadow froze in the melody of science! The ominous voice resonates as Hisui slowly rose from his shadow. "AWAKEN HAGANE!" Ichigo yelled. His shadow once again grew longer and bigger.
"Out of the forge darker than darkness, with the steel forged by the hammer of science! The ominous voice resonates as Hagane slowly rose from his shadow.
"BIND RHODONITE!" Ichigo yelled. His shadow once again grew longer and bigger.
"Chains forged by darkness binds all in the name of science! The ominous voice resonates as Rhodonite slowly rose from his shadow.
"DESTROY BISMUTH! Ichigo yelled. His shadow once again grew longer and bigger.
"From despair blacker than darkness, the fang that grieves the sin of science! The ominous voice resonates as Bismuth slowly rose from his shadow.
"Ichigo this is six. Where is the seventh?" Eu questioned. Ichigo flipped his phone and dialed 5501 and pressed send. Unlike the other six, it didn't come from Ichigo's shadow but instead, a wormhole opened up and a white ship began to come out.
"From the darkness of the nothing, ascend to find the light of infinity. The ominous voice resonates. Eu was amazed off the power her friend and crush now have.
"Thank you, everyone, I just wanted to show Eu. The six Asura Machine nodded and disappeared to Ichigo's mindscape. While Uzushio fired two more missiles and opened another wormhole and flew in it. Ichigo and Eu soon left the game dimension. Ichigo thanked Kyōka for controlling the trainer for his demonstration. Kyōka went back to Ichigo's mindscape. Ichigo and Eu looked at the clocked and decided to go to the clubhouse. A few minutes later, they were outside of the clubroom. They were about to open the door when they heard yelling.
"Fuu, it's been a long time since I came to the Human World. My lovely Rias... I have come to see you. Now then Rias, it's sudden but let's go visit the location for the ceremony. The date is set as well. It's better to get it over with." a man said.
"Let go of me, Riser," Rias said.
"Hey, you! You're being impolite to Buchou! Wait, what's with that attitude towards girls?" Issei questioned.
"Huh? Who the hell are you?" The man questioned.
"I am Rias Gremory-sama's family, her pawn Hyoudou Issei!" Issei said.
"Fuu, ah, I see," he replied.
"And who are you?" Issei questioned. The man cringed.
"...Eh? You didn't tell your servants about me? Wait some people don't know about me? Is this a reincarnated human? That must be it." The man said towards Rias.
"It's only because there was no need that's why I didn't tell them," Rias replied.
"Ahaha, you're harsh as usual. Ha-ha…" The man said trying to keep his cool.
"This person is Riser Phenex-sama. He's a pureblood High-class devil and is the third son from the legendary phoenix family. And also...is the spouse of the next heir of the Gremory family." Grayfia said.
"Huh? Spouse? But isn't Buchou the next heir..?" Issei questioned.
"He is going to marry Rias Ojou-sama," Grayfia said.
"NANI!" Issei screamed.
"Stop it!" Rias said. "Riser, I have already told you that I will not marry you!"
"You will!" Riser said back. "You know what the elders think!" Riser shouted "You also know what your job is as the heir of the Gremory family. And I will not allow a rebellious bitch to stain my family's honor. I will do everything to keep that honor. Including destroying everything you hold dear." Riser finished.
"Let's see you try." Rias countered.
"Ojou-sama, Riser-sama. Please calm down. If you do something rash then even I won't sit by idly. I definitely won't hold back, for Sirzechs-sama's honor." Grayfia said glaring at the two.
"Even I know when to stop; when Sirzechs-sama's peerage is involved." Riser said.
"Ojou-sama, Sirzechs-sama informed me that if you truly wish against this, then he is allowing you to participate in a Rating Game," Grayfia said.
"So all the old geezers even thought of the situation in case I did want to go against it," Rias said.
"Ojou-sama do you accept this option?" Grayfia asked.
"Of course I accept!" Rias said. "This is probably the last opportunity for me to get out of this arrangement."
"Fine then." Riser said. "Unlike you, I have already participated in countless Rating Games." Riser said.
"I, Grayfia, confirm that both parties agree to settle their issues in this Rating Match. Do both parties allow me to manage the game's details." Grayfia stated.
"Yes." Both of them said.
"I will inform both of the families of the Rating Game," Grayfia said. "The game will be in twenty-four hours." She said and disappears.
"So Rias, these five are your other peerage members. Pathetic." He said, "Let me show you my full peerage!" He said and summoned his fourteen other members. After seeing this Issei got jealous of the fully female peerage and began giving them a lustful look. Riser immediately recalled them noticing Issei's look. "My dear Rias, twenty-four hours till we wed." He said before disappearing. Ichigo started walking away. Eu was confused and pulled Ichigo's sleeve and gave him a questionable look.
"I am just going to talk to Grayfia and Sirzechs," Ichigo said. "Do you want to come?" Ichigo asked.
"Certainly. I want to see if the kid is still whining all the time." Eu wrote. Ichigo opened a Garganta, hugged Eu tightly, causing her to blush a little and jump in.
Scene Change: Lucifer's Office
"Come on Grayfia! Why did you go and see Rias without me." Sirzechs said looking away from Grayfia.
"Sirzechs-sama I know that you would not stick to business. You would likely embarrass Ojou-sama even more." Grayfia said.
"I do not want to talk to my maid. I want to talk to my wife!" He yelled back. As a red Garganta opened up. Ichigo and Eu walked out of it.
"Hello, Ichigo-san and …" Grayfia said. Grayfia took a closer look and she gasped. Hellscythe-Sama!" She yelled and bowed... Sirzechs fell out of his chair into a bowing position. Ichigo laughed and Eu giggled. The two looked up and see that Ichigo was laughing at them. Then they heard the giggles. They looked and saw Eu giggling. They were shocked. They looked around the office expecting something crazy to be done to the office. What shocked them more was that the office stayed the same.
"Hello, Grayfia and Little Brat," Eu said. Sirzechs flinched at being called Little Brat. "Get up, we are here to talk. Not take over the underworld." Eu said. Soon the two dusted themselves off and everyone sat down at some couches in another room.
"So Ichigo, what are you doing here," Sirzechs asked.
"Well… Ichigo and I were wondering if we can get involved with this Rating Game." Eu told the two.
"How?" Grayfia asked. Sirzechs told her to see if there were any loopholes for them to use to help Rias. Unfortunately, they couldn't find anything.
"Well… there is an older law we can technically use." Eu started. "When two lower rank parties are in a battle and one party is losing, a higher-ranking party can intervene and save the losing party and place their entire family in a debt. The restrictions are that the total size of the higher rank's army must be equal to or lower than the total survivors of the losing parties. Another requirement is that the higher rank must have no family connections with the family." Eu stated. "That law is called חוב של הקורבן (Victim's Debt). Due to how the laws evolved, all arguments that normally result in a war now results in a rating game. Is that correct?" Eu asked.
"Yes, it does. How can we use it here?" Sirzechs asked.
"Well Little Brat, because of these laws now changes the definition of battle. So, we could use this law to our advantage." Eu explained.
"I understand the fame that revolves around you two but, none of you have any rank in our society. Not even Sirzechs-sama or any other of Great Satans can get involved." Grayfia said.
"Grayfia. You forgot one rank that can top all of the Great Satans." Sirzechs said.
"There is no rank higher than the Great Satans," Grayfia said. "Unless you…" Grayfia said finally figuring out what is going on.
"Yes, Grayfia-san." Ichigo answered and summoned Jigoku no Yoroi." Grayfia and Eu gasped. They both bowed toward Ichigo. "Get up. Get up." Ichigo said and dismiss the armor. Grayfia quickly remembered her training and resume the conversation.
"So that means if both Rias and Riser are the only ones left, you can invoke this law and step in," Grayfia said.
"Yep. I wanted to tell you this so that we can discuss how your family can pay off the debt. Also, we will only invoke this if Rias is the last one left of her team or is about to admit defeat." Eu said.
"Well… we need to go talk to my parents." Sirzechs said.
"Wait," Eu said. "Why don't we play a joke on Venelana and Zeoticus?" Eu suggested.
"How?" Sirzechs asked.
"We both put hooded cloaks on us to hide our identity. Since we are escorted by both of you, no one will ask for our identity until we see your parents. I want to see their reactions to me." Eu said maniacally. Sirzechs smiled at the idea and decided why not.
"I'll prepare the teleportation seal," Grayfia said.
"Wait. Don't those only work for devils?" Ichigo said. "Rias mentioned that she couldn't teleport me by using those," Ichigo explained.
"Normally that is true. However, we are using special Maou teleportation seals. These seals will allow anyone to be transported with the Maou." Sirzechs explained. Grayfia summoned two black cloaks with the Gremory Clan Symbol on the back of the cloaks. Once the cloaks were fully in place, Sirzechs activated the special Maou seal. Ichigo, Eu, Grayfia, and Sirzechs teleported to the living room of the Gremory Castle.
"Hello Lucifer-sama, shall I inform of your arrival and your guests' arrival." A maid appeared and asked.
"Yes please." He replied.
"Right away sir." The maid said and disappeared. The group began to walk down a hallway they soon reached a throne room and their sat Venelana and Zeoticus. The maid walked in and announced their presence.
"Entering Lord Lucifer, Lady Lucifuge, and guests." A butler said. Once the group walked into the throne room, the butler closed the doors.
"Son. Daughter-in-law, what are you doing here? As well as who are your two guests?" Zeoticus asked. Grayfia turned and nodded. Eu was about to pull her cloak off but Ichigo stopped her. Ichigo then took his off first.
"Hello. My name is Kurosaki Ichigo. And before you ask yes I am the slayer of Aizen and Hero of the Winter War." Ichigo said.
"Hello dear. Strange question but do you know someone name Shiba Isshin and Kurosaki Masaki?" Venelana asked.
"How do you know my parents?" Ichigo asked.
"Before we explain, are you their eldest child?" Zeoticus asked.
"Yes, I am… Why?" Ichigo responded. Venelana then laughed and stuck her hand in front of her husband. Her husband grumbled and handed her a bag. "What the?" Ichigo questioned.
"Sorry, Ichigo-kun. We had a little bet a while ago to see if Isshin's and Masaki's first child will be a boy or a girl." Venelana explained.
"Wait. You know my parents?" Ichigo asked.
"Yes, we do. We'll explain it later." Venelana said.
"Well, that one guest introduced himself. Can the mysterious guest now introduce him/herself? " Zeoticus asked.
"Sure," Eu said and ripped off her cloak. Both Venelana and Zeoticus both jaw dropped. "My name is Eucliwood Hellscythe. A former member of Seventh Abyss." Eu said. Both of them panicked and looked around their throne room expecting chaos and destruction. However, everything looked the same except for Sirzechs on the ground laughing, Ichigo chuckling and Grayfia and Eu giggling.
"Now someone please explain to us why our throne room is not in chaos," Venelana asked once she got over the shock.
"Well. I was able to get my powers controlled with Ichigo's help." Eu said.
"Well… Now that we got that settled, how can we help you?" Zeoticus asked.
"Well, you know that Rias is going to be in a Rating Game against Riser tomorrow and we likely expect her to lose due to various reasons," Sirzechs explained.
"Hellscythe-sama suggested that to prevent her from losing, we invoke the law called ב של הקורבן (Victim's Debt)," Grayfia said.
"Interesting," Zeoticus said. "But how are we going to get someone higher rank than us to intervene?"
"Simple," Ichigo said and activated Jigoku no Yoroi.
"Impossible! How did you get that?" Zeoticus yelled.
"Honey, what is that?" Venelana asked.
"This is armor can only be worn by the Jigoku no Kōtei. Satan was the last one granted the title of Jigoku no Kōtei. No one would be able to get it unless… " Zeoticus explained. "You Ichigo are the new Jigoku no Kōtei!" he yelled. Ichigo smiled.
"With this, I will be able to intervene since Jigoku no Kōtei is a rank higher than all the 72 Pillars. This is why we came over here. We wanted to settle what will be paid to resolve this debt." Ichigo said.
"So what do you want Ichigo... Power?" Zeoticus asked.
"Nope got too much of that," Ichigo said.
"What about women?" Zeoticus asked.
"I got too many troubles involving with women," Ichigo replied.
"What about Rias's hand in marriage?" Zeoticus asked.
"While she is a beautiful girl in her own right, she is not my type," Ichigo said.
"What about all of the above?" Zeoticus asked.
"No thanks to any of those," Ichigo answered.
"Well there is one thing that I think can help you in whatever journey you venture on," Zeoticus said. "Come back after you help Rias and I will allow you to get it."
"Ok," Ichigo said. "Grayfia I will be at my house. Call me when Rias is the last one or is about to admit defeat. " Ichigo said.
"Why don't you want to see the entire thing?" She asked.
"The various people there will find it strange that someone they don't know is there watching," Ichigo said.
"Fine," Grayfia said.
"Ok. See ya," Ichigo said and they left the room visa Garganta.
"Dad. Are you sure you want to give Ichigo that?" Sirzechs asked.
"Honey, I agree with Sirzechs. That is a sacred treasure that has been in our family since its creation." Venelana said.
"It's for the best. Somehow, our family lost the right to wield it and I feel it in my gut, Ichigo will be able to wield it. " Zeoticus said.
"Well, Dad. Nice to see you. We will come tomorrow." Sirzechs said and left.
24 hours and 10 minutes later
"Issei! Issei... You've fought well. It's over... "Rias said. Issei pushed her away and tried to walk toward Riser. "It's over, Issei!" She said and grabbed Issei's arm. Once again Issei ignored Rias' orders and attempt to walk toward Riser. "Issei! Stop right now! Did you hear what I just-" Rias said before she saw Issei's face. His face was all bruised up and blood dripping from his mouth and nose. "To get to this point with your will alone... Idiot...Well done Issei…" She said before lightly placing Issei's down on the floor. "Thank you...Akeno, Yuuto, Koneko, Asia, and Issei. You guys worked so hard for the cowardly me…" She said as she reflects her peerage's action. I Rias Gremory ad-" she said before the entire building began to shake.
"What the!" Riser said as he tried to regain his balance. With Yubelluna's concentration broken, Asia was able to reach Issei and began to heal him. In front of Rias, Asia, and an unconscious Issei, a large purple double door appeared with two skeletons giving a one-handed bow. "What! How is the Gates of Hell here?" Riser yelled once he recognized the legendary gate. All the other viewers gave a similar reaction. Soon the door chains on the door began to shatter, from there, everyone could see a Kushanāda walking out of the gate. Everyone was shocked to see a Kushanāda here. Suddenly someone noticed and pointed at Kushanāda's forehead. At a closer look, everyone could see two people standing on top of Kushanāda's head. One was a short person. While the other was a tall person. They both were wearing similar black cloaks. Once the Kushanāda stopped walking, the two jumped off Kushanāda's head and stood at the building's roof. The Kushanāda then walked back towards the gate. Once the Kushanāda was inside the gate, the gate closed its doors and it began to descend back to the ground.
"WHO ARE YOU?" Riser yelled. The two remained silent. "ANSWER ME!" Riser said before throwing a fireball at the two. The little one snapped her fingers as the fireball hit. "HA!" he laughed until the dust and smoke disappeared. The two were not harmed by the attack.
"Asia." The man said. "Finish healing Issei and get Rias out of here." The man ordered.
"Um… Who are you? Asia asked. Ichigo decided that it's time to do his reveal. Ichigo grabbed his cloaks and threw it off and revealing himself.
"Ichigo-sensei what are you doing here? Not only that how are you here and how did you walk out the Gates of Hell?" Ichigo smiles.
"IF YOU DO NOT KNOW… MY NAME IS KUROSAKI ICHIGO. THE SLAYER OF AIZEN. HERO OF THE WINTER WAR AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE LEGENDARY JIGOKU NO KOTEI!" Ichigo yelled. Everyone except Eu and the rest of the Gremory family jaw dropped. Every devil no matter what rank, was told of the significance of that title.
"IMPOSSIBLE! SUCH LIES!" Riser yelled.
"YOU WANT PROOF!" Ichigo yelled and summoned Jigoku no Yoroi. All the devils were forced to bow out of respect of the armor and what that armor means. "NOW THEN! BY MY TITLE AND RANK I CALL UPON THE LAW KNOW AS חוב של הקורבן (Victim's Debt)!" Ichigo yelled. Many of the devils there didn't recognize that law. Only a few oldest Devils remembered that law. Rias recognized that law. Grayfia sneaked a piece of paper that told about this law to Rias during the ten-day training. When she realized what truly going on she was cried out of joy. "Rias Gremory, the heir to the Gremory Clan, do you need help?" Ichigo asked in Hebrew.
"I am Rias Gremory, heir to the Gremory house, need assistance! " She screamed out in Hebrew.
"So I, the Jigoku no Kotei, come to your aid. Do you understand the debt heir to the Gremory?" Ichigo yelled back in Hebrew.
"I understand the Gremory house is in debt Jigoku no Kotei. Now save us!" She screamed in Hebrew and passed out from exhaustion.
"Riser of Clan Phenex you are my opponent. Due to this law, I am allowed at most two more ally for me to call upon. However, I determined that I only need one other ally for this fight. Now my friend. Step forward and introduce yourself. Allow our new foe to fear for who he now faces." Ichigo said and smiled. Eu grabbed her cloaks and threw it off and revealing herself. Once all the elders got a clearer look, they all fainted.
"My name is Eucliwood Hellscythe! Former Member of the Seventh Abyss! My new foe should fear what is going to happen!" she yelled. She sent a wave of magical energy towards Riser. Yubelluna's quick action was the only thing that prevented her master from getting hit. Meanwhile, everyone at the stand that didn't faint now officially fainted. Many of them heard of the legends of the Seventh Abyss. Those seven members are stronger than any of the current Maoh. Grayfia chuckled at the blackmail material she was able to get on the spectators. Back to the battle, Ichigo drew Kokugatsu and fired a nameless Getsuga Tenshō at Riser. Riser barely managed to dodge. Ichigo decided to try a new technique. "Mugen Getsuga Tenshō [Infinite Moon Fang Heaven-Piercer]!" Ichigo yelled and fired a normal-looking Getsuga Tenshō towards the sky. In Riser's arrogance, he laughed at the attack. Ichigo just smiled. Suddenly many little Getsuga Tenshō rained down at Riser. Yubelluna at the last moment pushed Riser out of the way and took the full assault of Mugen Getsuga Tenshō.
"Riser's Queen Retires," Grayfia said. Riser grew angry. This person dared to interfere with his match. Dared to interfere with his duty. Even worse humiliate him in front of everyone in the underworld. This fool earned Riser's absolute rage. In his rage, his only desire is to destroy Ichigo Kurosaki.
"KUROSAKI ICHIGO! HOW DARE YOU INTERFERE WITH THIS BATTLE!" He yelled and combust into flames. "I WILL DO EVERYTHING TO INCINERATE YOU KUROSAKI ICHIGO!" He yelled. "FORBIDDEN TECHNIQUE: CURSED FLAMES OF THE PHOENIX!" he yelled, and his entire body became a black and red phoenix and flew towards Ichigo. Eu walked in front of the black and red phoenix.
"Extinguish," Eu said and snaps her fingers toward Riser. Suddenly the fire went out and Riser fell on his face.
"What the?" Riser questioned.
"You forgot what I can do with my powers. I can alter reality to what I wish." Eu said.
"King disqualified. The winner is Team Gremory with assistance from Kurosaki-sama and Hellscythe-sama." Grayfia said. Everyone in Rias's peerage yelled in victory. Rias herself cried since she was now free from her arranged marriage with Riser. While Riser was on the ground with his former peerage huddling around him.
"What? How did Riser get disqualified?" Issei asked when he was strong enough to stand.
"Well, this Rating Game is Gremory Clan vs. Phenex Clan," Grayfia explained. "But, when Riser used that technique, it requires him to sacrifice his connection with his family. When the technique ended, he was no longer Riser Phenex but, Riser No-Name. And since in the game, the Riser is no longer of Phenex Clan, which means he is disqualified." Grayfia explained. Riser now understood the true significant meaning of what he just did. His former peerage grabbed him and they all left back to Phenex Territory to deal with the effects of his actions. While the Club members were teleported back to the clubhouse.
"Looks like someone needs a party. I hope we can host that party." Zeoticus said as he walks toward the group.
"Father?" Rias asked.
"Father?!" Asia and Issei yelled. Not expecting this man could be Rias's father. He looks too young.
"Yo," Ichigo said
"Hello again," Eu said.
"Thank you Ichigo and Hellscythe-sama for your help with my daughter's problem." He said.
"No problem. I have a track record on breaking or messing with traditions." Ichigo joked.
"Come on everyone let's head to the Mansion," Zeoticus said and snapped his finger. Suddenly a black limousine appeared outside the clubhouse. Everyone ran to and sat in the limo. Soon the limo drove into a fake wall into a dimensional portal. A few minutes later, they saw the mansion. Everyone laughed at Issei and Asia's reaction to the mansion. Eventually, they arrived at the front of the Gremory Mansion. At the front of the Mansion, they saw two columns of maids waiting for them. All the maids greeted their master. Rias immediately pinched Issei's cheek preventing him from embarrassing her in front of her father and later her mother. They soon entered the throne room. Sitting there was Venelana, Rias's mother.
"Hello, Kaa-san," Rias said. Koneko immediately hit Issei in the head to prevent him from embarrassing Rias.
"Hello everyone. Once again thank you Ichigo and Hellscythe-sama for your actions." Venelana said.
"No problem." Ichigo and Eu said.
"Now then, for us to settle the debt my family now owes you, please come with me," Zeoticus said. Ichigo and Eu began to walk with him. "Sorry Hellscythe-sama, not even you can follow me. No one except Venelana and Sirzechs knows about what I am going to show you." Zeoticus explained.
"Ok," Eu said. Ichigo and Zeoticus continued to walk down a hallway. They soon encountered a dead end. The wall appears to be normal in the mansion. However, in the center of the wall, there appears to be a Gremory seal. Zeoticus went towards the wall and slit his palm and pressed on the wall and said. "I am Lord Gremory. I command you to open the entrance to the secret chambers!" Zeoticus command in Hebrew. From the wall, the seal of the Gremory Clan glowed, and the wall split into two; revealing a set of stairs. Zeoticus led Ichigo down the stairs. Soon they ended up in some kind of shrine with a sword stabbed in with eight black roses positioned in the shape of an octagram star (8).
"Where are we?" Ichigo asked.
"This is an ancient shrine that has been in my family since the days of Satan. The sword that is in place here belonged to the first Lord Gremory. Legends have it the First Lord Gremory slew countless dragons and other beasts. There is a rumor that there are dragons' souls absorbed by the blade. Before First Lord Gremory died, he created this shrine as a test of our family. To find a warrior who is worthy of wielding this blade." Zeoticus finished his tale.
"So you want me to see if I can pull this sacred blade," Ichigo asked.
"Yes. I feel that you would be worthy of this sacred blade." Zeoticus replied.
"Ok," Ichigo said and went towards the blade and grabbed it. "HHHHHAAAAAAAA!" Ichigo yelled and gripped the sacred blade and pulled. The blade slowly and surely began to loosen and Ichigo was able to pull it out. Immediately the eight black roses began to glow red and ignite creating a column of red infernos
"Ichigo!" Zeoticus yelled and tried to jump in the column of flames however, it knocked him back.
Scene Change: io walkingerall of above?" ?"imeInside the Column of Infernos
"What's going on?" Ichigo asked. Suddenly he heard footsteps. Ichigo turned and saws a being walking towards him. The being wore red armor and various heads of dragon-like beings.
"My name is not important. However, my magic has determined, that you Kurosaki Ichigo are worthy of my blade and powers. I will grant you this power if you make a deal with me." The warrior said.
"What is this deal? I will accept it if it doesn't involve interfering with my morals or prior agreement." Ichigo said. The warrior laughed.
"No. My blade's name is Ryūgonken. It has devoured many souls in it. Many have submitted and merged with the sword. While a few have resisted merging with the blade. Some are portions of Ddraig and your two familiars. I want you to find them and give them back their soul." The warrior explained.
"That is fine," Ichigo said.
"Also I will be gifting you with this armor. (9) This armor is called the Draconic Regalia forged from the remains of various beasts; some include Tiamat, Naga and various Wyverns. I fear that some from Hindu practitioners will recognize Naga's remains on this armor and may attack you as well as any loyal servants of Tiamat." The warrior warned. "Are you ready for my blessing?" The warrior asked.
"Yes," Ichigo said.
"By My Divine authority, I hereby give my blessing to Kurosaki Ichigo!" The being said in Hebrew. Soon the armor and sword dissolved and reformed on Ichigo. "Just like your Zanpakutō, it has a release phase which is…"
Scene Change: Outside
Zeoticus was worried about Ichigo. This is the first time this ever happened and it involved someone like Ichigo. Zeoticus's worries vanished when he heard Ichigo's voice.
"Conquer all who dare challenge my power, Ryūgonken!" Ichigo yelled. The inferno tower began to spin and collapse on it. Revealing Ichigo in red armor and wielding the sacred blade.
"Ichigo!" Zeoticus said and ran to him. "Are you alright?" He asked.
"Yep. But, I had to gain more power. Can I do something nice and not gain more power. Eventually, I will become the strongest thing in all reality." Ichigo complained.
"Well… there are two beings so strong they cannot die." Zeoticus said.
"Really?" Ichigo asked.
"Yep. They are so strong that death does not affect them." Zeoticus said.
"Ok. Knowing my luck, I will probably end up meeting one of them." Ichigo said.
"Don't jinx it Ichigo." He replied laughing. The two began to leave the sacred chambers. As they walked, Ichigo sealed Ryūgonken, making the armor disappear and returning it to its broadsword form. Ichigo then placed the sword on his back where a sheath appeared. The two eventually reached the exit to the secret chambers. The two men could see Rias, her peerage and Eu were partying. Ichigo left Zeoticus and joined the group who were parting. Eu was having the time of her life. She never attended any party or celebrations before. She never attended due to her fear of her powers going out of control. Even when she got her armor, she still had all that fear. But, now she looked at her friend. Ichigo… He made this all possible. He was the first one who didn't fear her powers. Instead, he spent his own time and resources to help her gain control of her powers. She never had this feeling before. Such gratitude toward someone. Such emotion toward Ichigo. What is going on?
While Eu had her mental discussion, Venelana and Zeoticus were having another one.
"So… Ichigo was able to pull out the blade." Venelana said.
"Yes. He did." Zeoticus replied.
"Do you know why Ichigo was able to pull it out?" Venelana asked.
"Well… I do have a theory. That theory involved our mindset."Zeoticus said.
"Our mindset?" Venelana asked.
"For Devils, our mindset is of a warrior. Get the power to defeat our foes, claim rights of conquest and continue. However, Ichigo has a different mindset. Sure he gets powers to defeat his foes. Instead of defeating his foes to claim rights of conquest, Ichigo defeats his foes to protect his friends and family."Zeoticus explained.
"I see… makes sense." Venelana commented.
"Yes, my dear. It does make sense. Especially who raised Ichigo to who he is now." Zeoticus said. After that both Venelana and Zeoticus and looked towards the group of teenage looking friends who are partying the night away. A few hours later, Ichigo grabbed a tired Issei, Asia, and Eu and brought them back to their respective homes and laid them in their beds. Once that was done, Ichigo drew Ryūgonken and touched a tattoo on Ichigo's right breast. It looks similar to a yin yang tattoo. When you take a closer look, the yin is in the shape of a dragon with blue eyes. While the yang is in the shape of a black dragon with red eyes.
"Come Kisara. Come Valiona. The tattoo glowed and his two familiar looked at him curiously. For the past week, both Kisara and Valiona looked the same. "You two please touch this sword," Ichigo said. His two familiars compiled and touched the sword. The two glowed and they transformed into Dragon human hybrids. Both the dragon hybrids were about 5 feet 8 inches. Kisara had pale skin, white waist-length hair, and bright blue eyes. Valiona also has pale skin but, black waist-length hair and bright red eyes.
"Hello, Master." They said.
"God damn," Ichigo said. "Please don't call me Master," Ichigo said.
"Ok Kurosaki-Sama." They said.
"Damn it. Please just call me Ichigo." He said.
"Ok Ichigo-sama." They said. Ichigo gave up trying to correct them.
"So. What did returning your souls do?" Ichigo asked.
"Well Ichigo-sama, when we were killed, most of our soul were absorbed by that blade. The remaining fragment of our soul transformed our bodies into dragon eggs. Our fragmented soul did this as an attempt to put our life on stasis while it tries to find our missing soul or find someone with high enough power to help us recover." Kisara explained.
"When you flared your power, the remaining fragments of our souls determined that you were worthy of being our protector," Valiona said.
"When we bonded with you we were able to acquire a few abilities of yours. Kisara said.
"What did you get?" Ichigo asked
"We can breathe hellfire, instant regeneration and able to have a human-like form. Valiona replied.
"Ok. But why did it take me returning your souls for you to become this?" Ichigo asked.
"Well. That blade contained about 90% of our soul as well as our powers in it. When we touched the sword, the sword returned our souls and powers." Kisara said.
"Ok. So do you still have a dragon form?" Ichigo asked.
"Yes, we do, but they are too big for this place," Valiona said.
"Well, I am going to sleep," Ichigo said and went to bed. The two drakaina decided to go to sleep as well but with their master. They sneaked to Ichigo's bed and fell asleep hugging him. Ichigo feeling this sighed in defeat and decided that he needs to go and find her to get his heart back.
The next morning, Ichigo woke up with both Valiona and Kisara hugging him. Ichigo smiled at the antic and woke the two drakaina up to get them to let his arms go. Ichigo soon woke up Eu and explained to her what happened last night with his new blade and Valiona and Kisara.
"Wow…" Eu said. The four continued to talk a bit more before Ichigo received a phone call.
"Hello?" Ichigo asked.
"Hello Ichigo, it's me Sirzechs. I need you at my office right now." Sirzechs said on the phone.
"Ok. Give me a few minutes." He said.
"OK." He said and hung up.
"Well ladies, Sirzechs wants to talk to us," Ichigo said. Valiona and Kisara agreed to go back to Ichigo's tattoo but asked to be released when Ichigo is in danger or back at the house. Ichigo agreed with the idea. When Ichigo and Eu got properly dressed, Ichigo ripped a red Garganta open and the two walked in.
Scene Change: Sirzechs's office
Ichigo and Eu arrived at Sirzechs's office. In there they saw Sirzechs sitting down on a couch while Grayfia was behind him towards his right side. On the other side a handsome looking man with long blonde hair and wearing some type of golden armor similar to robes an Archbishop would wear.
"Hello, Ichigo and Hellscythe-sama," Sirzechs said. "This gentleman is Michael, the secret ruler of Heaven."
"Hello, Ichigo-kun and Hellscythe-sama," Michael said.
"So. There must be a very big reason why we were called urgently." Ichigo asked.
"Well, a few days ago, someone broke in and stole three of the seven Excalibur fragment blades from the church," Michael said. "One of my many assistants sent two of our few Excalibur compatible wielders to Japan to attempt to recover the weapons. Those two are armed with two more Excalibur fragment blades." Michael explained.
"The reason why you are here Ichigo is that can you play host to these two agents for me. With you there, it might help make the mission smoother especially when Yuuto finds out about this." Sirzechs said.
"Ok. Thanks for the heads up." Ichigo said and both Ichigo and Eu stood up.
"Wait," Michael said and stood up. "Ichigo for doing me this favor, I give you the blessing of the elements. It allows you to summon, use and control the elements. The original ones are fire, water, wind, and earth." Michael said. "A tip is that do not limit yourself to only those four, use science and your will," Michael said and touch Ichigo's forehead. Ichigo felt new knowledge transfer to his head. He understands how to summon and control the original four elements."
"Thank you," Ichigo said.
"Also, to get those two to trust you, show this," Michael said and handed Ichigo a playing card. It has a spade of ace. (10)
"Ok," Ichigo said. Both Ichigo and Eu returned to their home. Just when they were about to relax, Rias burst into the room out of breath.
"SENSEI!" Rias yelled, "I need your help!"
"What is going on?" Ichigo asked.
"I think Issei and Asia need your help. At his house, I sense Holy energy and I couldn't get in." She said.
"OK. Let me deal with it." Ichigo said. Ichigo and Eu got up from their chairs and went over next door. Ichigo went to knock on the door. Ichigo heard faintly that Issei said he got the door. He opened it a little to see who it is. When he opened it, he expected more church members. Luckily it was only Ichigo and Eu.
"Ichigo-sensei, Eu, come in."
"Issei who is that?" An older lady said.
"Just my tutor, Kaa-san," Issei said. He led Ichigo and Eu towards the table.
"Hello everyone. My name is Kurosaki Ichigo and this is my friend, Eu. She is mute so please be patient with her." Ichigo said.
"Hello," Eu wrote.
"Hello." Everyone said.
"Hey Issei and Asia, let's go to my house so that you can get your daily workout in," Ichigo said.
"OK," they said and got up.
"Hey, you two do you want to come too?" Ichigo said.
"Um…" they were unsure what to say,
"Your friend, Michael said that you will be rooming with me for the few days you are visiting," Ichigo said. They said yes after hearing this. Soon everyone left and entered Ichigo's house. Rias was waiting for the two.
"Issei! Asia!" Rias yelled and hugged the two. "So nothing happened. Are you hurt? They didn't do anything to you."
"It was fine once Ichigo-sensei came," Issei said.
"I hope we are not interrupting anything devils." The girl with the blue hair said. As she grabbed her wrapped package. Ichigo decided to release a little of his Reiatsu to gain everyone's attention. In Ichigo's perspective, everyone fell to their knees except for Eu. She just shook lightly.
"Now that I got everyone's attention, can we all sit down on the couches please?" Ichigo asked. Everyone compiled and sat down. "Please introduce yourself so that everyone can know their respective identity," Ichigo suggested.
"My name is Xenovia." The blue-haired girl said.
"My name is Irina." The girl with chestnut hair said.
"Now then. I recently got a call from Sirzechs…" Ichigo began.
"My brother?" Rias asked.
"Yep. He told me to meet them in his office. When I arrived there, I met a man named Michael."
"Impossible!" Xenovia yelled. "No random person can get a private meeting with the right hand of God!" She yelled.
"Then explain this," Ichigo said and threw down the Ace of Spades that Michael gave him. Irina and the card glowed gold for a second and it faded.
"Yes. This man is telling the truth." Irina said.
"Please explain to Rias on why are you two here. Also what I said at Issei's house is true. You are rooming here with me until the mission is completed." Ichigo said. Xenovia and Irina began to explain the situation to Ichigo, Eu, Rias, Asia and Issei, and the mission.
"So… what is the plan?" Issei asked.
"Well… Rias should probably call Yuuto, Koneko, and Akeno before we get too deep." Ichigo suggested.
"That is probably a smart idea," Rias said. She soon used her magic to request their presence. Once everyone arrived at Ichigo's house, Ichigo almost had to restrain Yuuto due to the presence of the Holy Swords. Once Yuuto regained control of his anger, Rias got the three up to speed.
"I see…" Yuuto said.
"Based on what just happened moments ago… you have a personal problem with the holy sword project?" Irina asked.
"I do. I don't care to hide it. Seeing a holy sword makes me angry. Especially since you have to ask permission to even use it. However, they don't need permission to get rid of all the test subjects that failed in their experiment!" Yuuto yelled.
"Even for the church, that's one of their biggest turn-offs. The person in charge was exiled as a heretic, and now they're at the side of the fallen angels." Xenovia said.
"At the side of the fallen angels? What's their name?" Yuuto asked.
"Valper Galilei. The man called the Archbishop of Massacre." Xenovia answered.
"So, he followed the fallen angels and they got to him huh? I was attacked by someone carrying a holy sword a few days earlier. His name was Freed Sellzen. Do you know him?" Yuuto told the group.
"He is the genius who became an exorcist under the direct leadership of the Vatican Department of the Pope when he was only thirteen. His contribution in regards to exterminating devils and monsters one after another was unparalleled." Xenovia said.
"But he went too far, going on to lay his hands even on his brothers," Irina added. "Freed never had an ounce of faith, right from the beginning. What he possessed was hostility against monsters and an abnormal obsession with combat. It was only a matter of time before he was questioned."
"So… this Freed guy is practically a Kenpachi Exorcist... "Ichigo thought as he tried to imagine Kenpachi dressed in a priest outfit. Ichigo regain his bearing when the eight other members began to figure out who will go with what. The group of ten will split into four groups of 2. Issei is paired with Irina, Rias is paired with Xenovia, Yuuto is paired with Koneko, Asia is paired with Akeno and Ichigo is paired with Eu. Everyone exchanged contract info and Akeno modifies the teleporting seal so that Irina and Xenovia could temporarily use the seal. The groups spend the next few days walking around town, dressed as nuns and priests in an attempt to attract Freed's attention. Soon Issei and Irina founded Freed. Issei immediately used the seal to send a distress signal to the others.
"Hey, troupe of priests... I'll show you the way to heaven!" Freed yelled. Suddenly a red seal appeared and revealed the other six. "It's the brats that I failed to kill!" He yelled. "Looks like I get another chance to kill you!" He yelled.
"Issei be careful. He is using one of the Excalibur Fragments." Ddraig warned.
"Ok. Thanks. Boosted Gear!" Issei yelled. Everyone got into a battle stands. Yuuto drew his Incinerator (10). Xenovia and Irina drew their Excalibur Fragments, Koneko got into a fighting stands, Asia, Akeno and Rias behind the main group.
"Everyone, he is using Excalibur Rapidly!" Xenovia yelled. Yuuto ran towards him swinging Incinerator at him. Freed charged forward and use his Excalibur to slice through Yuuto's weapon. Yuuto willed his sword to reform and tried to attack again. Once again Freed just charged through and broke the attack. Xenovia ran behind Freed and swung her Excalibur. Freed was about to dodge the attack when he looked down at his leg. A rope is tied to his feet. He looks and sees Irina's Excalibur turned into a whip. Freed used the special powers of his Excalibur and dodged Xenovia's attack. Yuuto brought forth Raven's Wing (11) and reform Incinerator. Yuuto ran towards Freed with both swords having fire and wind spinning around the blade.
"Yūgō kōgeki! Hinoarashi! (Fusion Attack! Fire Storm!)" He yelled and swung at Freed. Freed was about to bend back when Xenovia was behind him and also swung her Excalibur. Freed jumped down and the two sword wielders clashed against each other. Xenovia breaking Raven's Wing and Incinerator.
"Oho, it's the sword birth boy." A man said.
"Old man Valpa, huh?" Freed said.
"Valper Galilei!" Yuuto said.
"In the flesh. Freed... what do you think you're doing?" Valper Galilei.
"What do you think old man? I am trying to have fun!" Freed yelled.
"Hurry up. You have an opportunity to get another fragment!" Valper yelled.
"Right Old Man," Freed yelled back. He used his Excalibur and break Irina's Excalibur rope on his leg. He then ran toward Irina and swung upward. Irina used her Excalibur and blocked the attack. At that moment, Freed grabbed her Excalibur and Spartan kicked her in the chest, flinging her towards the ground while taking her Excalibur. Freed used some type of stone and threw it down. Causing an explosion of light and both Freed and Valper to disappear.
"Damn it!" Yuuto yelled.
"It's all right Yuuto," Issei said to his friend.
"It's not alright!" Yuuto argued back.
"So what are you doing to do about it?" Ichigo said as he walked out of a Garganta. "I apologize for being late but, I was just informed of a personal matter," Ichigo said.
"What happened?" Issei asked.
"My sisters got kidnapped," Ichigo replied.
"WHAT!?" Everyone replied.
