The Welsh Dragon Awakens

Two days later

In Lance's room, he was sleeping in his bed and immediately stirred awake as the sunlight started to shine down on his face. Lance opened his tired eyes, he sat up on his bed and started to stretch his arms while he was yawning loudly.

"Well, time for another day at school."

Lance had immediately jumped out of his bed and he landed on both of his feet, while he began to rub his eyes tiredly. After he got dressed in his Kuoh Academy boys' uniform, Lance had got ready for school and he began to walk down the streets of Kuoh Town. As he continued to walk down the street, he had crossed both of his hands behind his head and began to think about his current living situation.

"I really don't have any more clothes aside from the ones that I have now, I also need to buy some groceries. I'll just need to go out over the weekend…I'm not that far from Ise's house, maybe I'll stop by and see his parents again."

Lance had stopped and taken a turn at the corner and he continued to walk down the street until he stopped in front of a normal looking two-story house. He had walked up towards the doorsteps and he began to knock on the front door.

KNOCK KNOCK

After he waited in that same spot for a couple of seconds, Lance had heard a woman said out 'Hold on one second'. Seconds later, a woman with long brown hair, brown eyes and wearing a typical housewife's outfit had opened the front door.

"Hello…."

She had said with a smile on her face, but she looked and noticed that it was Lance who was waving at her with a smirk on his face. She brown-haired woman had smiled brightly and wrapped her arm around him, while Lance had made a slightly embarrassed look on his face.

"Ise had told us that you had transferred to Kuoh Academy, but I couldn't believe it until I actually saw you with my own eyes. I'm so glad that you're doing alright."

The woman had said in a kind tone.

"Same here Mikoto-San."

The woman now named Minako had stepped aside and allowed Lance to walk through the door and into their living room. Lance then noticed a man sitting at the table reading a newspaper with dark brown hair and light brown eyes. After he finally looked away from his newspaper and noticed Lance inside of the living room, he then waved towards him.

"Well, if it isn't Lance. Man, you really do look like Galahad when we were younger…well, besides for those green eyes."

The man had said with a slightly wide smirk on his face.

"Heh, it's nice to see you too Kaito-San. By the way, is Ise up yet? I was actually hoping we could walk to school together while chatting."

Lance had responded to the man now named Kaito. After hearing Lance say that Minako had made a wondering look on her face.

"Uh, I don't know if he's up yet. But if he doesn't get up soon, he's going to be late for school."

"Don't worry dear, I'll get him."

After saying that, Minako had started to walk up the stairs and towards Issei's bedroom. Once she was gone, both Lance and Kaito had taken a seat on the couch placed in the living room. Kaito then looked towards him with a slightly more serious expression on his face.

"So telling from that aura coming from your body, you're currently in possession of Secace."

"Yea, I've had it for about eight years now."

Lance had answered with a slight sigh, which caused Kaito to look towards him hoping that he had known the full ramifications of using a Demon Sword.

"Just remember that being the possessor of the Demon Sword isn't something that anyone should take lightly, though they carry immense demonic power. The curse that is placed on them can completely cause harm and sometimes even misfortune to their user. And Secace may be the strongest demon sword after Gram, which is also capable of ripping through space itself, but the curse that's placed on it is one of the reasons why Secace is known as the Demonic War Sword and the Sword of War."

Lance could only nod his head at what Kaito had warned him about and he then looked towards him with a smirk on his face.

"I understood the consequences the moment that it chose me as its user, plus nothing happened so far and I'll continue using it since its the only weapon that I currently have."

"That's good, also…I'm sorry."

Lance looked at him with a confused expression on his face, as Kaito looked down at the ground with a look of depression on his face.

"If I was only there that night, then maybe they would've had all…"

"No, there wasn't anything that anyone could do to stop what happened that night. And besides, it wouldn't change the fact that they all…"

Lance then shook his head stopping himself from talking and he smiled towards him, trying to lighten up the depressing mood that was in the room.

"I'm not going to end up darkening this reunion by talking about what happened that night. So, are you still adamant about not telling Ise about his Sacred Gear?"

"Training him how to defend himself is one thing, but I'd rather not tell him about having that Sacred Gear as long as I possibly can. Though I've been noticing that he's been hearing that presence's voice for over the past couple of years."

"I know that you want to keep him safe, but it's not like you can keep him in the dark forever. Especially since he's…"

Before Lance could finish what he was about to say, he was stopped after hearing a tired grunt coming from the second floor of the house.

"Alright alright, mum I'm going."

"Now now, you're going to be late for school and your keeping Lance-Kun waiting."

Issei had started to walk down the steps of the house and fixing the school uniform that he was wearing with his mother following behind him. Minako then walked towards the counter and she picked up the two bento boxes that she had made, she then landed one of them to Issei and the other one to Lance. With both of them smiling out of appreciation.

"Now, go get your butts to school."

""Alright, mum/Mikoto-San."

Both Lance and Issei then walked outside of the house and they started to walk towards their school. Once they were gone Minako had sat down on the couch next to her husband with a smile on her face.

"You know it was great to see Lance-Kun again."

"Yes, but do you think that Lance was right?"

Kaito had asked with a wondering look on his face.

"Well, it's not like that we can baby Ise forever and we don't have to worry since now Lance-Kun will have his back no matter what. Don't forget how they were when they were kids, those two always promised to have each other's back no matter what happened."

Minako had answered him.

"Yes, but after retiring as a Paladin to become a parent. I never thought that Ise would end up getting involved with the other side of the world. I guess the only thing that we can do is trust his choices."

"And whether he chooses to become a Devil or not, we'll still love him."

Minako had finished, while she also wrapped her arms around Kaito's arm, which caused him to smile slightly.

While both of them were walking towards Kuoh Academy, Issei had suddenly looked at Lance with a shocked expression on his face.

"Y-You're thinking about starting a Club?"

"Yea why not, it gives me a good excuse to skip class if I'm sent an urgent assignment from the Chivalric Order…also, I think it'll be fun to start a club."

Lance had answered him, as he crossed his arms behind his back.

"Alright then, but I have to warn you Souna-Senpai is a tough person to convince."

Issei had responded, as both continued to walk down the street.

"Ise-Kun, I happen to be a great at convincing people."

"No, you're not. Remember when you tried convincing that guy to stop picking on Irina just because she was a bit tomboyish?"

"Hey, I gave him a chance and he didn't take it."

After hearing him say that, Issei had looked towards him with a deadpanned look on his face. And a sudden thought had come to his mind and he began to look forward, trying to avoid contact with him.

"So what did Gremory-Senpai want to talk to you about?"

Issei had asked suddenly with a slight bit of red appearing on his cheeks.

"Oh, nothing she just wanted to ask why I was here. You do know she's a Devil?"

"Y-Yea, but…"

"Do you have a crush on her?"

Once the question had left Lance's mouth, Issei had started to blush a deep shade of red after hearing that from him and he shook his head out of disagreement.

"N-No, of course, I don't have a crush on Gremory-Senpai!"

Issei had immediately declared.

"That's not very convincing, Ise-Kun. Does this have something to do with your fetish?"

"I don't have a fetish!"

"Yea, right. I remember that odd conversion you had with that perverted old man"

Issei had shot a glare towards Lance who began to laugh at him slightly. As they were heading towards school, they had later run into both Motohama and Matsuda. Both of them had then waved towards Issei, while also glaring towards Lance with an angered expression.

"Hey, Ise what're you doing with that bishounen?!"

Motohama had asked loudly, while he continued to look towards Lance angrily.

"He's my friend, of course, I'm going to hang around him."

"Whatever, Ise do you want to hang out after school?"

"Sure thing, I don't have anything better to do."

Once the four of them had made it towards, they soon walked into their homeroom class with everyone inside talking amongst themselves. Their classroom teacher had later walked into the classroom and he started to give out his lesson for today.

Lunch Period

During their lunch period, Lance had taken a seat inside of the shade on the roof of Kuoh Academy and he had begun to eat the bento box that Minako had made for him. Once he took a bite of the food using his wooden chopsticks, he had smiled brightly.

"Man, Mikoto-san can sure cook."

RING RING

As he continued to eat his lunch, Lance had soon heard his cellphone's ringtone beginning to go off in his pocket. Once Lance placed his bento box on the ground next to him, he had pulled his cellphone out of his pocket and answered it.

"Hello?"

[Hi, Lance-Ku…!]

[Yumi-Chan, let me talk to Lance-Kun!]

He had removed his phone from his ear as both Yumi and Jeanne had started to argue with each other, which also caused Lance to make a strained expression on his face.

[No, I was the one who wanted to call him first!]

[But, I want to talk to him too!]

After hearing both of them beginning to argue with each other about who got to talk to Lance, he had decided to end it with a simple solution.

"Why don't you both place the cell phone on speaker? And stop arguing with each other."

[Alright fine…it's on…so how have you been Lance-Kun?]

Yumi had answered him instead of Jeanne, while also hearing a slight huff coming from the second blonde.

"Yumi-Chan, I've only been here for only two days. But, I've been alright…nothing really life changing has happened lately. Just the occasional demon and stray devil attacks at night, so how have you two been doing?"

[I know, but it's been kind of boring since you left here!]

Jeanne had stated and without even needing to see her face, he knew that she was pouting childishly.

"Really? I didn't think that living life as a Knight would be so boring for the two of you. By the way, Yumi-Chan are you sure that you don't any other relatives?"

She was slightly confused by what Lance had asked her suddenly.

[Uhhh…no I told you that I don't have any other relatives. I was practically raised inside of the orphanage in the Chivalric Order since I was a baby. Why?]

Lance looked down with a confused expression on his face as he remembered first meeting Kiba, before shaking his head.

"No reason, it's probably just a coincidence."

[Okay, Lance then we'll hear from you again.]

[[Goodbye, Lance-Kun!]]

Both of them hung up the phone and placed it back into his pocket, Lance continued leaning against them and continued eating the food inside of his bento box.

DING DONG DONG DING

Lance had later heard the school bell beginning to ring, he then stood up from the ground and he started to walk towards his class.

And once school had completely ended, Lance had started to head towards the Student Council Room after he had got the direction from one of the teachers. Once he walked in front of the door, he knocked on the front door to the room.

KNOCK KNOCK

[Who is it?]

"It's me, Lancelot."

[Okay, come in.]

Lance had opened the door to the Student Council Room and he walked inside of the room. He had noticed the members of the Student Council, which were mostly comprised of girls and one male were working on several reports. He had looked forward and noticed that Sona was sitting behind her desk just finishing a stack of paperwork. Once she finally finished, she looked up towards Lance with a slightly questioning look on her face.

"Do you need something Lancelot-San?"

"Actually could you just call me Lance, I never really liked people calling me by my full name."

Lance had stated with a smirk on his face.

"Okay, then Lance-San do you need something?"

"Yes, I actually wanted to ask if I could start a club."

After hearing that from Lance, mostly everyone who was in the room had gasped slightly by what Lance had asked. And Sona's eyes had slightly sharpened towards him with a more serious expression on her face, which had caused him to laugh slightly nervously and also scratch the back of his head.

"I'll consider it if you can give me in full detail of the purpose of this club, locations and how it would benefit the school along with an adviser for the club."

"Well, the name of my club would be the 'Knights of Chivalry'. The purpose of my club would be to take up the requests from the students, which would assist them in either their school or personal lives. If they would like any assistance then they would fill out these forms, which will be placed around school with the location of the clubroom also on it."

Lance had held his hand out and a small green smirk circle had shined on his hand, once the light had faded away a single sheet of paper had appeared in his hand. And Lance then handed the form to Sona, who then started to read it intently with a very impressed look on her face.

"These forms also has a spell on it, which allows those who have knowledge about the supernatural with a request that requires other talents…and all they have to do is fill out the other side on the back. As for the location, I've already found a big classroom in the new school building that no one is using anymore. My club would also benefit from helping them with their issues allowing them to be able to focus more on school. And of course, they would also assist the school in raising funds, as for an adviser I found a teacher that agreed to be a temporary club adviser until I found another one."

Lance had intently explained the purpose of his club.

"Hmm, well I've got to say your club does benefit the students of the school. But, one of your reasons to open up your own club is an excuse to an excuse to get out of class isn't it?"

Lance started laughing nervously while scratching the back of his head at Sona's serious tone.

"Hehe, well you saw through the one. Though that doesn't mean that I won't take the duties of this club seriously."

"I can't see any reason to deny your club request, so yes you're allowed to start your club. Tsubaki would you give Lance-San the right paperwork?"

"Yes, Kaichou."

Tsubaki had gone towards one of the desks inside of the student council room and then handed Lance the paperwork that he needed to sign before he could start his club. As Lance began to sign each of the papers that he was given one-by-one, however as he was signing the papers, Sona had kept looking at him with a slightly curious gaze. After noticing the looks that she was giving him, he had looked towards her.

"Is there something wrong?"

Lance had soon asked.

"It's nothing, I was just curious about something."

"Well, if there's something that you want to know you can just ask me."

After hearing that from Lance, Sona had nodded her head in agreement.

"Very well, what training did you go through when you were with the Chivalric Order?"

Once she had asked that question, Lance had also completed the paperwork and handed it over to Sona.

"Well, since Knights are humans along with those who possessed Sacred Gears who have to fight against Devils and other beings of the supernatural, we go through extensive physical training, along with combat training and weapons training. Our extensive training had entailed us having to wear heavy armor that weighed a ton. And added with the training that I had to go through with my dad to use my ancestors two swords. And training with my uncle in using magic along with understanding magical calculations, but I was first training with…that man."

Sona looked and noticed the slightly angered expression on Lance's face after he said 'That man'.

"Who're you…?"

"No one important, just a traitorous Stray Magician. But, like I was saying, being born the inherent abilities of both a Knight and a Magician isn't all that it's cracked up to be, I had to train twice as hard as anyone else who was there."

"There's one more thing, but I don't want to pry into it."

Sona had stated.

"I already said that I didn't mind."

"Very well. It's about that trait that some members of the Du Lac family seem to gain, which became one of the reasons why you're all called 'War Gods'."

Lance had looked at her with a slightly surprised look on his face after Sona had asked him that, but he had smirked and looked towards her. He then closed his eyes and opened them, but they revealed to be slightly different from before. They were sharper than before and they were glowing with a bright green light, while also releasing a slight pressure from them. The pressure that was released from his body had also surprised the members of the Student Council Room.

"The War God was something that my ancestor, Sir Lancelot had discovered after going into several battles and wars alongside King Arthur along with the rest of the members of the Knight of the Round Table. Most of the battles that he fought were along, each time he pushed both his body and spirits beyond their absolute limits. After discovering that new power, he never needed any assistance in combat and fought against armies alone even against demons, become something similar to a God of War. He became known as King Arthur's 'Strongest Knight' and the 'Ultimate Swordsman'."

Sona smiled at what Lance had explained to her and she looked towards him.

"Well, that proves that Sir Lancelot was among the few Human Heroes whose names will be forever etched in the memories of both the Human World and the Underworld. That's one of the main reasons why there are many High-Class Devils who're always seeking to reincarnate their descendants into their Peerages. Well, thanks for talking with me, Lance-Kun."

Lance was slightly taken back to how Sona had added -Kun to his name instead of -San.

"Same here, Sona-San. By the way, I'm done with the paperwork."

Lance handed Sona the paperwork that he needed to sign to be able to start his club, and Sona took the paperwork with a smile on her face.

"Thank you, Lance-Kun. I'll turn the paperwork in and you'll be able to officially start your club tomorrow."

"Thank you, Sona-San. Well, I'll see you later."

Lance turned around and he waved goodbye to Sona, as he walked out of the room. Sona started to get a number of slight mischievous looks from some of the members of the Student Council as Lance left the room. Sona then sent them a brutal glare and they immediately got back to work with a look of nervousness on their face.

"Well, Lancelot-San seems like an interesting character. Though, what's with that look Kaichou?"

"Lance-Kun seems completely human, but I still can't shake this nervousness whenever I'm around him."

"Maybe you're in love Kaichou~"

Again Sona sent another glare towards the Student Council member and the girl stepped away with a slightly nervous expression on her face. Sona sighed and resumed doing her paperwork along with the members, Lance was walking outside of the school with a slight smirk on his face.

"…Shiro, come down."

As he was walking outside of the school building, he heard a girl with a monotone voice coming further from him. Lance looked followed the sound of the voice and saw a petite 15yr old girl, with white hair, hazel eyes and wearing the Kuoh Academy's school uniform.

"She must be a first-year student, though what's she…"

Lance then looked up in the tree and saw a white cat sitting down on the tree branch, he then walked over towards the girl and waved towards her.

"Hey, do you need any help?"

She turned towards Lance and stared at him with blank expression on her face, causing Lance to laugh nervously at the look that she was giving him.

"…You're the new transfer student Buchou was talking about. …Lancelot-Senpai."

"Yea, my name is Lancelot Du Lac though I prefer to be called Lance."

"…my names, Koneko Toujou."

"I'm glad to meet your Koneko-Chan. …Now."

Lance then jumped towards the tree branch where Shiro was sitting and grabbed a hold it, he then pulled himself up with his one hand and reached his freehand towards Shiro.

"Come on, girl."

Shiro looked towards Lance and started walking towards him, and she jumped into his arm. Lance immedately let go of the branch and he landed in front of Koneko. He smiled brightly and handed Koneko Shiro, she immedately leaped into Koneko's arms.

"So, since you know who I am that you're apart of Rias-Senpai's Peerage…I'm guess, you're her Rook."

"…Yes, but how did you…"

"The Evil Pieces within people's bodies release a certain demonic signature. I'm also sensing that you're a Nekomata…no, a Nekoshou."

Koneko looked at him with a slightly shocked expression on her face, Lance noticed the expression on his face and started scratching the back of his head slightly.

"Sorry, I guess that was kind of a sore subject."

"…No, it's just that I didn't think you could tell that much."

"Well, that's just a trait of mine."

As both of them started talking Shiro started acting oddly suddenly, and noticing her change in mood Koneko looked down towards her before turning towards the city.

"…Fallen Angel."

Lance turned around and looked towards the city, and he narrowed his eyes slightly towards it. He started walking forward, but he suddenly turned towards Koneko and waved slightly.

"I'll talk to you again, Koneko-Chan."

Lance turned back around and started heading towards the city with a slightly worried expression on his face, as he started rushing to their.

"It's probably just a Stray, there's no way that Sacred Gear fanatic would send one to…."

Issei was currently walking past the part with a slightly annoyed expression on his face, he then looked forward and sighed slightly.

"Seriously do those guys have to be insanely perverted, its one thing to be…"

At that moment, Issei felt an insanely cold feeling going down his spine as the atmosphere around him started to shift and he noticed the people around him had suddenly vanished from sight, almost like he was just teleported somewhere.

"W-What's going…?"

Issei had wondered to himself. He then jumped back out of instinct as a blue light spear was stabbed into the ground where he was standing. After regaining his balance, he had heard someone clapping their hands and he finally heart a man's overconfident voice.

"Impressive, you were able to dodge that light arrow."

Issei had turned his head towards the source and saw a man wearing a light gray trench coat with a fedora on his head, but the first thing that Issei noticed were the black wings that were coming from his back.

"Fallen Angel."

"And he seems to know what I am, well I guess you should since God placed that damn Sacred Gear inside of your body."

Issei made a shocked expression on his face by what the Fallen Angel had told him.

"I don't have a Sacred Gear, if I did my parents would've…"

"Hahaha! Don't get so distressed you won't be feeling anything anymore."

The man had manifested another light spear in his hand and he began to pull his arm, Issei glared forward towards him and got in a battle ready stance. The man smirked and threw the light spear towards him, Issei moved out of the way and dodged the light spear again only slightly grazing his shirt. The man then charged towards him while manifesting another one in his hand, he stabbed it forward towards him. Issei had only narrowly dodged the attack again and he aimed his fist forward towards the side of the male's face.

The attack had sent him stumbling backwards, after recovering from the recoil of the attack, the male Fallen Angel had grabbed Issei by his shirt collar and flung him towards the ground with great force. As Issei was being flung towards the ground, he had regained his balance and dodged another light spear that was aimed towards him, which only scratched his cheek.

"Hehe, that was a good punch…as a gift I'll give you my name. It's Dohnaseek and goodbye!"

Dohnaseek manifested another light spear in his hand and threw it towards Issei, as he was going towards him Issei felt as if it was going slower. And a shallow red aura started coming from his left arm, and Issei's eyes widened as he started hearing a voice.

[Humph, so my voice is finally reaching your…got to hand it to that Magician made a real durable seal. It took this long for you to finally hear my voice.]

"Who're you?"

[There's no time for that just focus your strength towards your left arm!]

Issei suddenly felt information suddenly going through his mind and he held his left arm forward and shouted.

"Dragon Booster!"

[Dragon Booster]

A red Dragon gauntlet manifested on a majority of his left arm, the gauntlet had two gold spikes, clawed tips on his fingers and a green jewel on the back of his hand. Once Dohnaseek saw the gauntlet on Issei's arm his eye widened out of shock.

"What the…?"

[Boost]

Issei immedately jumped up with his power suddenly doubling and punched forward immedately breaking the light spear on contact, he pressed his foot forward and charged towards Dohnaseek. He glared towards Issei with an angered expression on his face, he manifested another light spear and threw it towards Issei. He dodged the attack as he passed by his head, Issei clenched his fist and punched forward.

[Boost]

After getting another boost in power, Issei immedately punched Dohnaseek in his face and sent him crashing into the ground. Issei looked at Dohnaseek as he immediately fell unconscious from Issei's attack, he then looked down towards his arm.

"W-What's this…?"

"It's called Boosted Gear or the Red Dragon Emperor's Gauntlet. It is also one of the thirteen Longinus Sacred Gears, but this one is called as a Mid-Tier and harbors the spirit of the Ddraig, the Welsh Dragon, and the Red Dragon Emperor."

Issei turned around and saw Lance walking towards him, and he made a shocked expression on his face by what he had told him.

"Yea, I remember when our parents were telling us about the Sacred Gears, the Holy and Demon Swords. But, why did my parents keep the fact that I had a Sacred Gear from me and why didn't you of all people tell me?"

"Your parents had asked my uncle to place a magical seal on both you and your Sacred Gear, so you wouldn't sense its presence nor could Ddraig would be able to communicate with you. But as you continued to grow at an alarming rate, the seal on you began to become weaker and weaker. And they realized that you'd have to one day fight against your arch-rival the White Dragon Emperor the Vanishing Dragon."

"Yea, the Heavenly Dragons always fought against each other even after they were sealed inside of their Sacred Gears. But, my predecessors fought against the Vanishing Dragon and so will…"

After hearing Issei say that, Lance had shook his head in disagreement.

"If the current the Vanishing Dragon was a normal existence then your parents would've told you about your Sacred Gear sooner rather than later. The current holder of the Mid-Tier Longinus like yours, the Divine Dividing, White Dragon Emperor's Light Wings, which houses the White Dragon Emperor, Albion. And the one who possesses him is recognized as the Strongest White Dragon Emperor in the past, present and even those who would appear in the future."

Issei made a terrified expression on his face by what Lance had told him, he later felt Lance placing his hand on his shoulder. He then looked towards Lance who was smiling at him.

"Don't worry, we always promised each other that we'd have each other's backs and if the White Dragon Emperor comes I'll back you up."

"Right, so what do we do with him?"

Lance then looked towards Dohnaseek who was still unconscious on the ground, Lance then started scratching the back of his head.

"I make it a policy not to kill someone while they can't fight back…so, I'll just let Azazel deal with him."

Lance held his hand out and a magic circle shined under him, once it vanished Dohnaseek was immedately transported away from them. Issei then looked towards Lance with a slightly shocked expression on his face.

"Y-You know the leader of the Fallen Angels?"

"Kinda, I might him while I was on assignment with the Chivalric Order. Him and his…well we'll talk about that some other time. Why don't we go back to you house and tell your parents what just happened?"

"Alright."

A/N: And there goes Chapter Two of the Magic Knight, Lance finally stops by to the Hyoudou Residence to meet up with Issei's parents. Who're both Knights who retired from the Chivalric Order, Lance decides to start his own club at school.
