Okay, gonna take this as a slow burn story, Gonna try for fifteen or more chapters before hitting Canon. This Story will draw inspiration from The DxD story: Anomaly insofar as the heavy focus on slow burn build up is concerned, on this site, so enjoy.

Also as a small side note:

When a bracket is placed in bold before a word it is typically associated with a Longinus Spirit such as Ddraig, Albion, Lycaon, or Regulus speaking as a Sacred Gear or in the form they take as a Sacred Gear such As Albion's Wings, Ddraig's Gauntlet, or Regulus Lion form as the case may be.


(Zekram Bael's Estate, Bael Clan Territory, The Underworld, Earth, DxD/ Draconic Deus Universe)


A five year old boy with black hair and violet eyes stood before Zekram Bael, another boy stood beside him on his right, with orange hair, while a girl with black cat ears and twin tails stood at his left. His Father's stood nervously beside the First Great King of Bael.

''What do we do? The Naberius Family won't accept this and then there's this Longinus.'' Asks Lord Zekrom Bael.

''Naberius can be cowed easily enough, especially with the evidence we now possess. How man Evil Pieces did he consume Prince Corvus?'' Zekram replies.

''Three Mutation Pawn Pieces totaling up with a Collective Pawn Value of Nine, Honored Elder.'' Corvus replies respectfully.

''And the girl, she took both your Bishops yes?'' Asks Zekram.

''No, Elder, I used a Mutation Bishop that I infused with my own Destructive Aura, it was sufficient to acquire her and override the Naberius Connection.'' Corvus replied.

''Interesting, and how many Pieces have you infused with your own Aura?'' Asks Zekram.

''My Remaining Bishop, my Queen, both Knights, and a single Rook, Elder.'' Corvinus replies.

''I don't want the Devil King's finding out about this Zekrom. This is a trump card we can ill-afford to play early. Prince Corvus judging the look in your eye you already know who you wish to acquire next?'' Asks Zekram.

''Yes, Elder. I wish to recruit two Hero Descendants, a member of the Extra Demon Abaddon Clan, a Witch Descendant of King Arthur, and a Dragon King.'" Corvinus replies.

''For now focus on your studies and training. I have some matters to discuss with your father.'' Says Zekram.

''Yes, Elder Zekram. Father, shall I wait for you or shall I return home immediately?'' Corvinus asks his father.

''Return home boy, check in on your Mother.'' Zekrom instructs him.

Once Certain that the boy is gone, Zekram turns to his Descendant.

''The boy reminds me of myself, looking towards the future. If he knows who he wants to recruit, then facilitate it. He'll need strong allies to get stronger. It's funny he should mention the Abaddon Clan however, recently a name crossed past my desk. Bedeze's niece is looking for a suitable master, perhaps she would prove a suitable Bishop or Queen?'' Zekram suggests.

''If you believe so Lord Ancestor.'' Zekrom says obediently.

''I'll reach out to Lord Cain then, make the Peerage Offer. The prospects he spoke of, I'm intrigued to know how true they are. Depending on the Hero Descendants Ancestry it could be quite beneficial to have them with us, especially if they have High-Tier Sacred Gears or a Longinus. The Descendant of King Arthur is interesting, as is his hope to take a Dragon King for his servant. Keep me updated on his progress Zekrom.'' Zekram instructs his Descendant.

Arriving home with Kuroka and Regulus, Corvinus quickly checked on his Mother before he would go train with Regulus and Kuroka. He would rely on Kuroka to teach him Youjutsu and greater Senjutsu while also increasing his Demonic Power. Regulus and him would build up their physical power, stamina, and endurance.

Corvinus wished to create a Technique that would make use of a highly compressed form of Power of Destruction. He envisioned a pair of Revolvers that fired compressed PoD Bullets. He knew they'd pack a punch which is why he wanted them in the first place at all.

If he was able to mix in Senjutsu and Youjutsu as well then all the better for him and all the worse for those who got penetrated by his Bullets.

But he also hoped to create a Rifle out of Demonic Energy or maybe a Gatling Gun or perhaps go old school and create a Whip that was powered by his Power of Destruction.

Ultimately if you can imagine it, Demonic Power can build it. The Quality depended on the strength of your desire, while the quantity was dependent on the limits of your willingness to improve your power.


(Meanwhile)


House Phenex sat gathered at the table with the exception of Rueven, Ravel and Riser.

''Ruval, we've received an interesting offer from Lord Bael he wishes to arrange a betrothal between his Eldest Son and Ravel. How do you feel about that?'' Lady Sylvia Phenex asks her eldest son.

''House Bael is wealthy, influential, and popular. Prince Corvus is said to have immense Demonic Power despite his young age. But Ravel is two years his junior, thus I would reply to Lord Zekrom that to both our houses any talk of a betrothal should wait until Ravel is at least Thirteen and Prince Corvus Fifteen.'' Ruval suggests thoughtfully.

''That was our reaction as well, very well, but we should pay close attention to the Young Bael nevertheless.'' Says Lord Renzo Phenex.

''Indeed dearest.'' Lady Sylvia replies.


(Back With Corvinus)


Corvinus was fighting tooth and nail against his trainers, Kuroka, and Regulus. His Aura flickered into Touki every so often. Corvinus ignored his Aura in order to focus on taking Kuroka out of the fight so that he could focus on his trainers and Regulus.

Kuroka was a Major Threat because of her Senjutsu, Youjutsu, and Touki all of which was freakishly scary when coupled with her Strong Demonic Power.

The whole reason he wanted her out of this fight quickly was to demonstrate her weak Defensive Power and her own lack of Physical Strength drawn from her own natural power instead of just relying on her natural prowess in the use of Senjutsu or Touki-Enhanced Strength.

Corvinus needed her to have something at hand if someone was able to bypass her Magical Defenses.

Corvinus would make it a point to ensure his Peerage Members received Senjutsu, Youjutsu, and Touki Training from Kuroka. He also hoped that even his lowly Pawns would be capable of receiving advanced Magical instruction in Norse, Fairy, Devil, White, Black, and Grey Magic.

Every type of Magic had a unique specialty to itself; Fairy Magic was subtle and had a certain aloofness to it. Fairy Magic drew upon positive emotions in order to strengthen Magical Wards and Barriers. Norse Magic was inherently difficult because it required a complete absence of emotion in order to cast powerful Curses or Enchantments.

Suffice to say it would definitely be worth it but quite time consuming in event or Situation.

Turning back to the Fight at hand, Corvinus swats Kuroka aside so he can manifest a Sword of Pure Demonic Power. He then uses that Sword to fend off Regulus and his instructors.

Corvinus Sword strains under the pressure that Regulus exudes, causing him to dispel it and summon a new one that is powered by his Power of Destruction, with his base Demonic Power serving as a protective shell so that he doesn't accidentally kill his Pawn through disintegration.

The use of Power of Destruction as an energy source is only stable because of the thin layer of Senjutsu and Youjutsu that sits nestled nicely between the Destruction and his basic Demonic Power as an insulator of sorts. Since Senjutsu is the art of Life and Power of Destruction is as the name implies a Senjutsu Current layered between it and normal Demonic Power is a suitable preventive measure to ensure the Destruction doesn't feed off the basic Demonic Power like leech on bare skin or a Vampire in a den of debauchery. Of course Youjutsu is an additional countermeasure since it is especially useful in the creation of Barriers and Warding's.

With a more Stable blade in hand, he easily begins to dominate the fight, and swiftly defeats his Instructors, before turning his sword into a length of Demonic Power shaped into a Cord in order to essentially lasso and corral Regulus in his lion form. Thanks to his Mother's Clan Trait of Lion Taming he is naturally capable of bending the Cats to his will, or at least bringing them around to his line of thinking to a degree.

As soon as Regulus realizes he can't move or break the hold, he powers down and resumes his human form.

''Master, you truly are a unique Devil.'' Regulus praises.

''Just as you are unique among the Thirteen Longinus Regulus. I'm curious as to whether or not when you die you'll return to the Heavenly Sacred Gear System or not as your Spirit and Soul have Reincarnated as being that of a Devils as opposed to Human being Reincarnated as a possessor.'' Says Corvinus.

''Anything's Possible.'' Regulus replies.

''I don't believe that to be the case any longer with you however. See when Sacred Gear Wielders are Reincarnated as Devils or they were born as Half-Fallen Angels, Devils, or Miracle Children, The Sacred Gears will theoretically remain unbiased in a manner of speaking. However it's my belief that Independent Avatar or Sealed/Contracted Types will take on the Characteristics of their hosts Race if they themselves are Reincarnated with their Supernatural Racial Physiology.'' Says Corvus far too thoughtfully and sagely for a normal Five year old Devil.

''For Example Canis Lycaon, Yourself, Absolute Demise, and the Incinerate Anthem can be Reincarnated into Devils essentially, but when their Demonic Lide Force has run dry it's unknown if they'll revert to an unbiased racial state of being. It's possible the big idiot never accounted for such a thing.'' Corvus suggests.

''That's an interesting hypothesis Master, but I'm afraid that I am unable to adequately answer it.'' Regulus replies.

''I didn't expect you to to. But in any event take a well-deserved rest, you've earned it, you both have.'' Corvus tells his two servants with no small measure of pride.


Corvinus sat in his Private Sauna, he'd had it installed for his Personal use, not even his father has access. He had three private spaces, a Hot Spring like the one in the Gremory Estate, a Sauna like Sona's, and a Private Swimming Pool where he can do as many Lengths as he so desires.

As he sat in his Sauna he began to reflect on what he wanted to accomplish here.

He had a lot of Meta-Knowledge, and just Knowledge in General. He also wanted a Peerage which while part of his Harem didn't solely serve as such but was combat effective.

He had an idea on which Hero Descendants he wanted, it was between Heracles, Siegfried, Leonardo, Jeanne, and Georg.

Now each had their own Pro's and Con's. In Heracles case it was the fact that he was crass and especially Blunt, even after getting punished via Devil Daycare. But Heracles physical power was a natural protection against those who bypassed his Sscred Gear.

In the case of both Jeanne and Siegfried it was relatively the same issue. Both former Exorcists and rather well-known. Now Siegfried was a slightly less problematic individual than Jeanne because he was less likely to fuck up Kiba. Jeanne's Sacred Gear was Blade Blacksmith which created Holy Swords and while no Excalibur they were Holy Swords nevertheless. Siegfried could potentially bond with Kiba as well since he was essentially a test tube baby who was also part of a Church experiment. His Sacred Gear was also a significantly less problematic matter with Kiba and his rage boner for Holy Swords.

The Pro's For Sieg were his Combat Prowess, Experience, and his Demonic Swords. For Jeanne it was much the same but slightly less effective.

Now Leonardo and Georg would be invaluable for many reasons. Georg with Dimension lost would allow them to safely traverse the Dimensional Gap if he wished to acquire Gogmagog as his Servant and then there was that additional little fact that his Magic library was particularly invaluable. Leonardo though a Novice with his Sacred Gear had one overwhelming advantage no other possessed, his ability to create Anti-Monsters depending on his Enemy. Now imagine that he created Anti-Devil Monsters, but through their creation used Gram as a power source. It would effectively murder Issei. And getting him gone would turn things more squarely in his favor.

Especially if he were to extract the Sacred Gear early making Rias dependent on him, which would permit him to get into her pants so to speak. His father might not like it, but He'd be able to claim the fact that any future offspring would be two generations of Bael and could be easily influenced.

Plus it ensured a means of control to prevent the widespread birthing of multiple Devils with no guaranteed allegiance to the Bael Family. Any Non-Rias future generations would be limited to Milicas Gremory.

Listen to that thought train, he's already thinking like his father. Control, control, control. That's all it is with him.

Issei as a decent non-pervert Corvinus didn't mind, but the kids charisma and list of babes was something that would risk his own goals. Now Corvinus could theoretically get Issei first, extract his Sacred Gear and Seal it into himself, that'd cause no small amount of problems but it would also cause no small amount of benefits as well. Decisions like this have the capacity and potential to cluster fuck a plan into next week. It was stressful and a Sauna was meant to be a place for relaxation.

Plus if Ddraig had the knowledge that he'd become a Red Dragon Emperor of Tits, need a psychotherapist for Dragons, and all the other shit he'd possibly be less inclined to resist the extraction which would...no! No more stressful shit! Bad Corvinus! Bad!


(Time-skip: Seven Months Later)


What a difference less than a year can make. Now Six, and already strong enough to knock the likes of Seekvaira Agares on her ass come Season 3 of Canon. Oooh that ass and bust size!

Despite no new additions to his Peerage, he'd made in roads to Georg, approaching him as a possible Pact Magician.

Leonardo was difficult to pin down, as was Heracles, but Jeanne and Siegfried were easy enough being High-Profile Exorcists.

Corvinus had just gotten out of a meeting with his father and ancestor, highlighting the many ''Potential'' Boons of attending the same human school as Rias and Sona, of which though reluctant to accept ultimately both of them could not refute.

Right now he had to also focus on a soon to be expanded family, his mother was allegedly pregnant with Twins, and in a prior meeting with Zekram he'd seemingly convinced him of the reasons why a non-carrier of the Power of Destruction was a valuable tool.

Hopefully his fears would not be fully if indeed at all ever truly realized.
