Well, before starting the story I'd like to answer some reviews:

FallenAngelLover: They weren't exactly overpowered, in the Canon the only reason that they lost members were because Raiser's Queen Yubelluna had blindsided them. So since she was taken out by Koneko and Akeno, they were only left exhausted not defeated.

Rias Hater: Alright, I'm happy that you like my OC Knight…but you need to chill. I'm pretty sure from your Guest User name we all know that you hate Rias.

Abel: Thanks, I'm happy that you liked the chapter. And Gabriel will be a loving mother to Lance.

King Lancelot: Rias is an important character to Highschool DxD…I really don't know why some don't like her character.

Hellspam: Thanks, I'm glad that you liked the fight scenes. Actually Lance won't be getting Brave Saints...well it depends. And yea I can totally see Serafall doing that.

Richter: Next Chapter, coming up.

Thanks for those who reviewed. Now, lets' get to the Chapter!


The Holy Sword, Excalibur

Weeks later

Lance was walking towards Issei's house along with Kiba, Van and Koneko while they were talking with each other.

"So what had happened yesterday at the Familiar Forest?"

"Well, Ise-Kun had got into an argument with a familiar that Asia had caught after it had shocked him."

"Why couldn't you come?"

"I had another mission to do with the Chivalric Order that took an entire day to get done. By the way why're you guys heading towards Ise's house?"

"Well, the Occult Research Club is currently being cleaned."

As they were continued walking towards Issei's house, Lance later felt Koneko pulling at his shirt and Lance looked down towards her with a slightly confused expression. Koneko then pointed towards a candy shop that was next to them.

"…can we get sweets?"

"Sure, I think that we have time. You coming Kiba, Van?"

Lance had asked both of them, as he looked towards them.

"No, I think I'll just go on ahead."

"Me neither, plus I'm not that into sweats."

Both Van and Kiba then continued walking forward, while both Lance and Koneko started walking inside of the Candy Shop. Once Lance walked up towards the front of the counter, he then looked towards Koneko.

"So, what do you want Koneko-Chan?"

After Koneko had told him what she had wanted, Lance made a dumbstruck expression on his face. After they had left the Candy Store, Lance was carrying bag filled with candy and he looked down towards Koneko who was eating a bar of chocolate.

"Are you sure that you can eat all of this?"

"…Yes."

"I wanted to know, do you enjoy being in Rias' Peerage?"

"…Yes, Buchou has been there for my for a long time when I no one else to rely on. Even when…."

She later felt Lance petting her on her head, causing her to smile slightly.

"If you don't feel like talking about it right now, you don't have to. I really do love the way that Rias-San treats her Peerage like her family, the same goes for Sona-San. Though compared to the other Peerages that I've met, you guys carry the most potential while still caring for each other. Though you don't have to worry about your powers going rampant."

"…But, what about?"

"Power is still Power, it doesn't matter if it's Senjutsu, Magic and even Demonic Power. Power still corrupts people no matter what form it takes. It depends on how the user wields it, plus you have people to depend on if you do lose control."


Koneko nodded at what Lance had told her, once they had walked into Issei's house they walked on an embarrassing sight. Issei was making an embarrassed expression on his face as everyone started looking at his photo album.

"Yo, Ise."

"…What're you guys doing?"

"We're showing everyone Ise's photo albums."

"Man that's got to be embarrassing."

Issei then glared towards Lance with an angered expression on his face, Akeno then looked one of the photos both Lance and Issei were both playing in the park with a wooden swords in their hands.

"Ara, both of you were really close."

"Yea, there wasn't a time when those two weren't playing in the park together."

Issei then looked and noticed that Kiba was laughing at one of the photos in the album, unable to take it he lunged towards Kiba trying to get the album.

"Oi, Kiba give that back!"

"Van catch!"

Kiba then threw the photo album towards Van who had caught it without looking, he then threw it towards Lance with an uninterested expression on his face. Lance then caught it with a smirk on his face as Issei was coming towards him, he threw it back towards Kiba. Issei then glared towards Lance, while gripping his collar with an angered expression on his face.

"What? It's not my fault you're slow!"

"And it's not my fault that you're an idiotic slacker!"

Lance then gained a tick mark on his forehead as Issei had summoned his Boosted Gear, his mother then looked towards him with an angered expression on his face.

"Ise, no using your Sacred Gear in the house."

Issei then unsummoned his Sacred Gear, while turning towards Lance as sparks started flying between both of them. Kiba continued looking at photo album, but he stopped at a certain page and made an emotionless expression.

"Hey Ise-Kun, Lance-Kun."

Both Lance and Issei, then looked towards them as their fists were smashed against the side of each other's cheeks with Kiba showing them the photo. The photo was of both of them standing next a tomboyish looking girl and all three of them were holding up a European Sword, with a smile on their face.

"Do either of you remember this?"

"Hey, I remember taking that photo we took that photo together with Iri-Chan."

"Yea, I remember that day."

"A Holy Sword here of all places."

Lance then looked towards the emotionless expression on Kiba's face, before he could respond he suddenly felt a faint holy aura throughout the city with both Kaito and Mikoto making the same expression along with Issei.

"Huh, what was that?"

"It's probably nothing Ise."

At Mikoto's statement, Issei dropped it with both of his parents making a slightly worried expression on their face. Lance then stood up and started walking outside of the house, before looking towards everyone else.

"Sorry guy, I've got something to check out."

Lance then walked outside of the house while pulling his cellphone out of the pocket, and started dialing the number for Elaine.

"I know I'm not being paranoid, they felt the same thing that I did."

{Hello, Lance.}

"Hey, Elaine it's probably nothing but has their been anything about the…."

{…missing Excaliburs from the Church.}

Lance then made a shocked expression on his face by what Elaine had just said to him, he then placed his hand on his head.

"So, I wasn't being paranoid…I really did sense one in this town."

{We were actually going to contact you about that, there's another assignment for you, someone has taken three Excaliburs from three separate Churches.}

"Do they have any leads on who did it?"

{Yes, that bastard Fallen Angel who dared attack one of my adorable grandchildren, apparently he wasn't happy about how to war had ended. So he wanted to instigate another War.}

At that moment, Lance's expression fell slightly and then he clenched his fist slightly with a slightly fearful expression on his face.

"The guy who survived the Great War against God and the other Maou, he's beyond our current caliber to deal with. Even with his Scale Mail Ise wouldn't be able to fight against him in his current level of power and he can only use for an hour a day."

{Don't be like that, I'm sure if all of you were to team up you'd be able to fight against him…and if not I'll fight against him.}

Lance's expression fell even more the moment Elaine had suggested that, and he started shaking his head with a fearful expression on his face.

"That's even worse! If you were to start fighting here, this entire city would be completely destroyed and burned down in a matter of minutes."

{Ahh! You're exactly like Galahad and Chris, neither of you wants my help…don't you know it breaks a mother's heart when she can't help her own family!}

"It's not that, it's just that your not the type of person who holds back in a fight. And no, I wouldn't know what a mother…."

A sudden mind breaking headache went through Lance's head, as another memory started creeping into his head. And he placed his hand on his head with a pained expression on his face, he later shook it off and sighed out of relief.

"We'll try and find a way to stop Kokabiel…AND only if we have no other alternative then you can step in."

{Okay, the mission assignment should already be sent to your phone. Be safe.}

Elaine then hung up the phone as Lance was sent another mission assignment from the Chivalric Order, which read:


To: Lance
From: Chivalric Order

Description: Three Excalibur Swords were stolen by the Fallen Angel Kokabiel, you're mission is getting them back and not getting into a battle with him if possible. Also it seems that two other Humans, one Exorcists the other an elderly man are working with him. You'll also be partnered with two Exorcists from the Vatican who're also in possession of Holy Swords.

Accept
□Decline


Lance then pressed 'Accept' on his cellphone, once he was finished he placed his cellphone in his pocket with a slightly discouraged expression on his face. He looked down towards the ground and started thinking over what he had just heard.

"I'll just have to go all out."


The Next Day

During Lunch, Lance was lounging inside of the 'Knight of Chivalry' Clubroom with some requests in his hands from the request box.

KNOCK KNOCK

Lance heard knocking at the door, he then sat up in his chair and then looked towards the door.

{Lance-Kun, can I come in?}

"Sure thing, Sona-San."

Sona then walked inside of the room with a chessboard setup in her hand, with Lance looked towards her with a wondering expression on his face.

"Do you need something?"

"Yes, I would like to challenge you to a game of chess. I've been meaning to ask for a while."

"Sure thing, I'm not really doing anything at the moment. Just set it up on the table."

Sona then went and sat down on the couch in front of the table and she started setting up the chessboard, with Lance sitting down in front of her. Once she was finished setting up the chess pieces, Lance had picked the white pieces while Sona picked the black pieces.

"Well, why don't we make this more interesting?"

"How so?"

"If I win, you'll tell me what your goal in life is. And, if you win I'll tell you mine."

"Interesting, alright."

As both of them started started their game of chess, they started progressing both of them making precise moves, countering and retaliating against each others move. After matching each other with their wits…in the end of the match Lance had won against Sona. She looked towards him with a shocked expression on her face.

"…I lost. I knew you could match me intelligence, but where did you learn to play like that?"

"From my uncle, I was always taught to think several moves ahead of my opponents to pull out a win…but I still can't seem to find a way to beat that bastard."

Sona looked at him with a slightly confused expression on his face, as she saw the slight look of distress that was inside of his eyes.

"Well since you won, I'll share my dream with you. My dream is to open a school for Devils regardless of their status to learn how to compete in Rating Games, since the other schools in the Underworld only allow children of High Status. That was the reason that I came to Japan to learn of the School's system. Though I'm not sure that the higher ups will be happy about it, because it goes against tradition."

"Who cares what they think? They're just a bunch of old Devils who cares about nothing more than keeping their own status, along with their so called superior power. Go through with your dream no matter what anyone else thinks, alright? And besides, I believe that you can do it."

At what Lance had said, a slight tinge of pink started dusting on Sona's cheeks, and she looked away with an embarrassed expression on her face. She then looked forward as Lance pulled out a bento box, and he had opened it.

"Do you want any Sona-San?"

"S-Sure, that is if you don't mind."

"Alright, now saw aaah."

Sona then started to blush a deep shade of red at what Lance had just said, while holding up a piece of meat with his chopsticks.

"Why's your face all red?"

"It's just that, isn't this supposed to be the other way around?"

"Oh, come on."

Sona sighed with an embarrassed expression on her face, she then closed her eyes with her mouth opened slightly. Once Sona had took of bite of the food and her expression brightened, after she had tasted the food.

"This is delicious."

"I'm glad that you think so, you know you actually look like someone that I met like a week ago."

"And that would be?"

"Serafall Leviathan."

At that moment, Sona's expression fell slightly causing Lance to look at her with a confused expression on his face as Sona sighed slightly.

"Oh my Maou, what did she do?"

"Uh, nothing. But, how is she the oldest sister?"

"My…Onee-Sama means well, she can just sometimes go over the top sometimes."

"Well, I could kind of guess from her personality and I can kind of related. Also I kind of like her cheerful personality. Now, let's eat."

Lance then picked up a piece of food from the bento box with his chopsticks and ate it, Sona then looked towards him with a slightly embarrassed expression on her face as they basically had an 'Indirect Kiss'. He then looked towards her and made a confused expression on his face.

"What's wrong?"

"N-Nothing, by the way are you entering the Ball Tournament."

"I really can't since, Ise-Kun joined the Occult Research Club and I'm joining them…since I've become somewhat of a target."


Ball Tournament

Inside of the Gym the Occult Research Club, wearing headbands made by Issei with their club name embroiled on it and their opponents were the Baseball Team in a game of dodge ball. While everyone in the Baseball Team were ignoring Rias, Akeno, Asia, Koneko. While Kiba who was just standing around with an uncaring expression on his face, with both Issei and Van being aimed at by the members of the Baseball Team.

"Get Hyoudou and the Cold Prince!"

"Screw you guys!"

Issei shouted as he started dodging each other dodge balls, while Van started effortlessly dodging the attacks with a bored expression on his face.

"Why're they aiming for you Van?"

"I have some…history with the captain of the Baseball Team."

"What kind of history?"

"I blew off one of his stupid comment, he wanted a fight so I kicked his ass…speaking of which."

The captain of the Baseball Team then threw the dodge ball towards Van, who caught it with one hand and he threw it towards his face. Once the ball smashed against his face he fell backwards on the ground, with Van smirking slightly.

[Don't aim for Ise-Kun nor our Cold Prince bastards!]

Van sighed slightly, but his attention was caught toward Asia who was wearing bloomers instead of the normal gym uniform.

"Why's Asia wearing bloomers?"

"One of my classmates, Aika told her that it was proper formal wear for dodge ball."

"You should really control that chick, before she completely corrupts that girl."

"Stop dodging you bastard!"

Van clicked his tongue as he heard another comment towards him, as one of the Baseball Team members threw the dodge ball towards him. Van pulled his leg back and kicked it back towards them, with the dodge ball hitting them in the face. Issei then looked towards him with a deadpanned look.

"Are you sure that you should be doing that?"

"What? It's not like I'm killing them."

Van's eyes then widened as he saw a large member of the Baseball Team preparing to threw a dodge ball towards Kiba at full force.

"I don't care if I'm hated, take this pretty boy!"

"Damn, what's up with him?"

"Kiba!"

"…huh."

Before the dodge ball made contact with Kiba, Issei appeared next to him and caught the dodge ball in his hand. He then sighed slightly as he looked towards Kiba, with a confused expression.

"You know for a Knight that was kind of sloppy of you."

"…Sorry, I got sidetracked."


After the Ball Tournament was over and the Occult Research Club had won 1st place, with Lance walking outside along with Issei and Asia who were carrying umbrellas in their hands. Outside the rain was coming down hard smashing against the ground, with a sudden sound echoing throughout the area.

SLAP!

They then turned their heads towards the echoing noise, and saw that Rias had slapped Kiba across his face while he was making an uncaring expression.

"Did that wake you up?"

"Are you done now? The ball tournament has finished as well. We won't be practicing anymore so can I take a rest until its night time? I'm a bit tired so I will take a break from the usual club activity. I'm sorry for my behavior this noon. Seems like I didn't feel well today."

Issei then started walking towards them and decided to ask him.

"Kiba, what's up with you?"

"It's none of your concern."

"Even I'm getting worried about you."

"Worried? Who worries about who? I think it's normal for Devils to live by how they want. Well, I think I'm at fault for not listening to my master this time."

"It's troublesome a situation like this when we are trying to form a proper group. That's how we felt after we went through that bitter experience in the previous match, remember. Don't we have to cover for each other's weak points from now on? We are comrades."

"Comrades…."

"Yes, comrades."

"You are always burning…Ise-kun, lately I started to remember the basic things."

Issei looked towards him with a confused expression on his face, as Kiba continued his solemn expression on his face.

"Basic?"

"Yeah, that's right. The reason why I am fighting."

"Isn't it for Buchou?"

"No. I'm living so I can seek my revenge. Holy Sword Excalibur. Destroying that is the reason why I am living."

Issei looked towards him with a shocked expression on his face by what Kiba had just said, before Lance could walk over he felt another pulse of holy power. He suddenly started walking away from towards the city while waving toward Asia.

"See you later Asia-Chan."

As Lance was walking passed Issei, while he glanced towards him with Issei nodded his head in agreement. Lance took off towards the town heading towards where the location of the holy power was coming from.

"I'm not letting whoever it is get away from me."


SPLASH

As Lance was running around, he heard the sound of someone falling down into the water, he turned his head and saw an injured Exorcist lying down on the ground with blood dripping from his wound.

"Hey, are you alright?!"

Lance ran towards him and had checked for a pulse, but the Exorcist was already dead with Lance closing their eyes. He later sensed some killing intent coming towards him, and he jumped out of the way as he was almost cut with a blade surrounded with a holy aura.

"Yahooo! That was some reaction time Knight-Boy."

Lance looked forward and saw Freed Sellzen looked towards him with a sadistic smirk on his face, and wielding and oddly shaped blade in his hand.

"Excalibur Rapidly? White hair, red eyes…Freed Sellzen."

"Ahahaha, I didn't think I'd be so popular."

"I heard you tried to rape my adorable Imouto, so now…I'm going to kill you."

Lance had said with his eyes narrowed towards him with Freed making a slightly confused look on his face.

"Huh?! The only one I tried to rape was some blonde haired Nun."

Lance gritted his teeth and summoned Secace in his hand, Freed smiled sadistically and charged towards Lance while activating Excalibur Rapidly's ability of velocity.

"Let's if your blade can match My Excalibur Rapidly."

Freed started slashing Excalibur Rapidly towards Lance with near unreadable speed, and Lance started blocking each of the attacks with Secace. Freed clicked his tongue and started making an angered expression on his face by what had happened.

"Hah! What happened?! My Excalibur-Chan's losing to this whelps sword."

"There's no way a simple fragment of the original can match a Demon Sword."

"That's disappointing, I guess I'll just go and find Asia-Chan and finish what I started! Hahaha!"

Lance clenched his teeth with his eyes started turning slitted, while he started leaking a large amount of killing intent from his body that even started terrifying Freed. As he started clenching Secace's hilt, with a green marking starting to stretch up to his arms and he reached Secace towards the air with a large amount of demonic power starting to gather around it.

"Die."

Lance slashed Secace downwards and released a powerful wave of demonic power that started distorting even the space around them. As the attack started speeding towards Freed, he jumped out of the way just as the attack was coming towards him. Once Freed was out of sight, Lance started looking around with an angered expression on his face.

"Where'd he…?!"

Lance's eyes then widened out of shock, he started forcing Secace out of his hand and he dropped it on the ground. The green markings vanished off of his hand, with Lance clenching his fist tightly and sighed out of relief.

"I-I almost lost it…Secace's Curse isn't something to mess with."


A/N: And there goes Chapter Nine of the Magic Knight. Nothing much happened, all for preparation for the Holy Sword Arc. Issei had his embarrassing moment, with his mother showing everyone his photo album and Kiba started showing his hatred for the Holy Sword, Excalibur. Lance had his moment with Sona and finally at the end of the chapter Lance had his battle with Freed who was almost torn apart. Well, until the next chapter.
