Chapter 3 – Introductions
Previously on A True Devil
"Agh man, why does he always chase them, and what's worse it that there is a half nekomata in Zech's sister's peerage" Kai mumbled the last part. "Well he is a dog" Ciel said and everyone sighed. 'I guess that could be some more entertainment' Kai thought as he stood up. "I guess we'll deal with that tomorrow, and if he does act Ciel could always stop him" Kai explained and Ciel nodded. "That is my speciality" he said with a smile. "Great, tomorrow will be a fun day" Kai said as he gave an evil smile 'Yes, very fun indeed' he thought with a small laugh.

Now
Occult Research Clubroom
After school the next day which ended early Kai headed towards the clubroom. Knock. Knock. Knock. Kai knocked on the door, Kiba was the one who opened it up letting Kai inside. Rias and Sona were already present sitting in the same manner as the day before with their respective peerages behind them. "Well looks like the gangs all here" Kai said in a slight mocking tone. Issei and Saji were glaring at him but kept their mouths shut at their Kings command. Kai took a seat on the couch facing them once again.
"So, would you like to call your peerage, or were you bluffing?" Sona asked with slightly narrowed eyes. Kai gave a small laugh then took out his phone from his pocket. "I'll message them now" he said sending the message to Layla who returned saying they would be ready in a minute. Kai raised his hand and a black magic circle appeared on the ground beside him. After a few seconds when the light died down there stood 8 figures. Everyone looked at them in shock. Koneko who was standing behind Rias stiffened a little since the hairs at the back of her neck stood up.
"Well this is my peerage" Kai explained looking at everyone, the two perverted boys were looking at Layla, Becca, and Coral. "Cat" Rei finally said as he looked around the room until his eyes landed on Koneko when they narrowed. "Dog" she said making Rei growl slightly. "Rei, please control yourself" Kai finally said watching the expression Rei had, it was the look when he was about to chase something. "Yes Sir" he finally said shrugging his shoulders. "Alright, I'll introduce first" Sona said as he motioned for her peerage to step forward.
The first to step forward as a bespectacled woman with straight black hair reaching her knees and split bangs covering her forehead, she also had heterochromic eyes with violet left eye and light brown right eye. "My name is Tsubaki Shinra and I hold the positon of Queen" Tsubaki said as she bowed slightly. The next to step forward was a girl with white hair and blue-green eyes. "I'm Momo Hanakai I am a Bishop" Momo said stepping back. The next to step forward was the same girl that was Kai's class. "I'm Reya Kusaka and I'm also a Bishop" Reya said with a smile and bow.
Next was a girl shoulder length reddish-brown hair and brown eyes. "Hey, I'm Tomoe Meguri and I'm a Knight" Tomoe said with a smile her eyes showing excitement. The next was a girl long dark purple hair tied in a long braid reaching her hips and golden eyes. "Bennia, Knight" Bennia said making everyone sweatdrop. 'I guess she doesn't talk much, she does have some grim reaper in her though, interesting' Kai thought looking to the others. The next was a man who was well built with grey hair and yellow eyes. "I'm Loup Garou, Rook" Loup said. At this Rei's eyes widened. "HEY!" this caught everyone's attention. "You're like me, well sort of" he said and Loup looked closer. "I haven't seen another one of our kind in a while" Loup said making Sona look at him.
"Are you telling me that that boy points to Rei is also part Werewolf?" Sona said shocking everyone. "Well not exactly, his blood is purer than mine is" Loup said and Rei nodded. "I'm a pure blood, you have a changed blood" Rei explained as he nodded. "Anyway, next please" Kai interrupted before everyone got off track. Next to come up as a blue hair and dark blue eyes "I'm Tsubasa Yura and I'm also Rook" Tsubasa said with a small smile. Next to step forward was a short girl with long brown hair tied in twin-tails and green eyes. "Hi my name is Ruruko Nimura and I'm a Pawn" Ruruko introduced with a smile and wave.
Next to step forward was the blonde haired boy from the day before, when he did step forward both Erigon and Kai had a smile on their faces. 'So this is Vritra's current host, disappointing' Erigon thought as he watched the boy with little interest. "I'm Genshirou Saji and I took up 4 Pawns" Saji said proudly making all the others including Kai's peerage sweatdrop, except for Layla who kept an emotionless face. Kai leaned forward "Well I must say that you have some interesting peerage members, I'm surprised that you got a grim reaper as your Knight" Kai said shocking Sona and Bennia who had wide eyes. "How did you… never mind" Sona was about to ask but went against it then turned to Rias.
"Alright, I guess it's my turn now" Rias said as he peerage stepped forward. The first to step up was the same woman who had long black hair tied in a high ponytail reaching her knees and a wonderful figure with large breasts. "I'm Akeno Himejima I'm Rias's Queen" Akeno said with a smile and gave Kai seductive glance, which didn't have the desired effect as he just looked at her with a deadpanned expression making her pout. The next to come up as a girl with blonde hair and green eyes. "Um… eh… Hello I'm Asia Argento… and I'm Presidents Bishop" she said nervously then ended with a large bow sending her hair forwards.
The next to step forward was a boy with blonde hair and grey eyes. "I'm Yuuto Kiba and I hold the position of Knight" Kiba introduced himself. At this Ethan narrowed his eyes "Sword Birth" he said shocking everyone who wasn't in Kai's peerage. "How did you know?" Kiba asked with narrowed eyes but he was actually a little unsettled. "I have a similar ability" Ethan explained making Kiba nod. "Well perhaps we can have a spar" he said and Ethan smirked. "Perhaps" he said looking down at Kai who nodded. "As long as you don't kill anything or destroy anything important again you may do as you wish" Kai explained with a sigh.
The next to come forward was the same girl with white hair and golden eyes. As she took a step forward Rei started to growl but was silence when Ciel smacked him on his head. "Koneko Toujou, Rook" Koneko said making everyone sweatdrop. 'See that she's not the only silent one' Kai thought as he now looked towards the last peerage member at the other side of the room. The boy stepped forward "I'm Issei Hyoudou, and I took up all 8 Pawns" he said proudly. At this the room fell silent until Erigon broke the silence "What a waste" he said and Kai nodded. "I know right" he said and this made Issei glare at the two.
"Now would you like to introduce your peerage, it's only fair" Rias said and Kai nodded. Kai turned to Layla who took a step forward. "I'm Layla Elcott, I am the Queen" Layla said with a small nod. Next was Becca who was wearing a white kimono with golden obi "Afternoon, I'm Becca Sino and I'm one of the Bishops" Becca said with smile on her face. The boy beside her stepped forward, "I'm Ciel Rosser, also a Bishop" Ciel said with a bow. The male behind Becca stepped forward "I'm Ethan Hunter, I am a Knight" he said giving a bow which Knights use.
Rei stepped forward with a grin "I'm Rei Kumoro and I'm a Rook, you also guessed that I am a werewolf" Rei said as he showed his canines off to the others in the room. "Stop scaring them idiot" Ciel said as he hit Rei on the head again. "Sorry" Rei said in apology. Next was the light blue haired female "I'm Coral Foster and I'm a Pawn" Coral said with a smile but then narrowed her eyes when she saw the look Issei and Saji were giving her 'Perverts, disgusting' she thought when the tall male beside her stepped forward. "I'm Erigon Drakos I took up 3 Pawns" he said watching as Issei and Saji scoffed. "Only 3" Issei said making Erigon raise his eyebrow. "Your point" Erigon said making Issei and Saji shake their heads.
"My turn, my turn" a voice said, looking down it was the green haired and eyed girl in pink dress, she appeared to be around 8 years old but was really over 1000. Kai nodded and the girl yelled "YAY, I'm Mia Iris and I'm a PAWN!" Mia yelled excitedly making everyone sweatdrop and Kai just pinch the bridge of his nose. "Well that is everyone, I think we can head home now" Kai said as he stood up. "WAIT!" everyone looked to the source of the noise which was Issei and Saji. "WE CHALLENGE YOU!" they both yelled again making Kai sigh. "I'm not fighting the two of you, you're not worth the effort" Kai said as he continued to the door. "Are you scared?" Saji mocked making Kai pause.
"No, but you are a thousand years too young to stand up against me" Kai said. "Fine, then let's fight another one of your peerage members and if we beat them we face you" Issei said making Kai raise an eyebrow. "Anyone want to volunteer?" Kai asked his peerage who shook their heads. "I'll do it" Mia said with a smile. "You sure?" Kai asked and Mia nodded her head. "You're joking right, you want us to fight this pipsqueak" Issei said and this made everyone in Kai's peerage flinch. "Oh boy" Ethan said as he took a step back. Mia had her head down with her hair covering her face. "You really shouldn't have said that" Kai said as he closed his eyes.
"Layla, let's transport to one of the battle arenas please, this place will be destroyed and I don't feel like explaining this to any of the higher ups if I have a choice in the matter" Kai said and Layla nodded. "I'll bring everyone with us" she said as she created a large black magic circle below the entire floor of the clubroom. When the light faded the room was empty.
~o~O~o~
Above Battle Arena
When everyone opened their eyes they were all looking down at the large grass field below. Issei, Saji, and Mia were standing on the grass below them. "Are we flying?" Asia asked as she looked down. "No, we are standing on a special barrier, we can't be on the ground when Mia decides to fight unless you want to be involved" Kai explained as he sat down. "MIA DON'T KILL THEM!" Kai yelled making everyone wince. "CAN I CUT OFF A FEW LIMBS?!" Mia yelled back. "NO! YOU CAN'T, ANYTHING ELSE IS FINE!" Kai yelled back then sighed then looked up to Rias and Sona. "If I were you I would have your bishop ready to heal those two once Mia is finished" Kai said as he looked to Asia.
"Issei won't lose" Rias said earning chuckles from Kai's entire peerage, except Layla. "Sorry, but this was over the second he insulted Mia, she may be small but she is powerful" Ethan explained. "Even I have trouble with her at full power" Coral said with a smile. "Well, let's enjoy the show, it depends if she decides to play with her prey beforehand, but knowing her that is exactly what she would do" Kai said with an evil smile. "What do you mean play?" Sona asked a little nervous in her voice. "She doesn't like to kill in a single strike, instead she toys with her target until they are begging for death, it is quite entertaining unless you are on the other side of it" Kai said as he looked down.
~o~O~o~
On The Ground
Issei, Saji, and Mia stood on the grass. Issei and Saji were looking around while Mia still had her head down with her hair covering her eyes. When Issei and Saji heard what Kai and Mia were yelling about, how not to kill them or dismember them they were quite confused. 'Do they think that this little girl could do that to us' Issei though as he watched the girl standing across from them. "Now, how about we get this started" Mia said, her voice wasn't the sweet innocent voice from before, instead it was dark and unsettling. Mia disappeared from view only to appear in front of Saji kicking him in the face sending him backwards.
"SAJI!" Issei yelled and turned to face Mia only to get hit as well. The two laying on the grass groaned in pain. "Damn, that kid can hit hard" Saji groaned as he looked up from the hole he was buried in. Mia started walking towards the two of them. "Let's do this" Issei said as he summoned his Boosted Gear on his arm. "So you are going to fight?" Mia asked with some sarcasm in her voice, which still didn't sound like a child. "Let's see how you handle this then?" she said as she placed her hands on the grass.
Green coloured energy started to gather around the area Mia was touching, slowly the earth began to move upwards bringing the dirt with it until it grew higher and higher. The large mass of earth started to take the form of a creature, once it was finished there was a huge lion made of earth with the grass as its mane. "WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!" Saji yelled as he looked at the lion above them. "I control the earth, meaning I can create anything from it" Mia explained as she raised her hand. Suddenly the ground below Issei and Saji started to sink sending them down with them until it stopped only showing them from their waste upwards.
"I always loved playing wack-a-mole" Mia said with a smile as she started to create something form the earth again. Once it was finished she was holding what seemed to be a giant sledge hammer. "This won't kill you, but it will hurt like hell" Mia said as she raised her hands back then forwards sending the hammer down on them. BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, Mia continued hitting the two sending them further and further into ground when she stopped to turn to the lion beside her. "Those two are your new chew toys" she said and the lion pounced on the two devils pulling them out of the dirt into the lion's jaws.
The lion started running around throwing the two into the air then catching them before starting the process all over again. Mia sat there watching her handy work with a smile on her face. 'I'm not a pipsqueak' she thought as she laughed. The lion was now sitting on them comfortably with its head resting on its paws. "GOOD JOB!" Mia looked up seeing Kai jump down from the barrier above them until he stood beside her. "Why did you hold back so much? I mean that was nothing compared to what you normally do" Kai asked a little confused. "I don't feel like getting too dirty" she said as she continued watching as the lion squished the two below it.
~o~O~o~
Above Battle Arena [A little Before]
All peerages watched as the earth shifted until it created the form of a giant lion. "So that is her ability, earth magic?" Rias asked Kai who shook his head. "Nope, she controls nature, anything about it which is why her power is deadly" Ciel explained watching as Mia created a huge sledge hammer. "Oh, that is going to hurt" Erigon muttered as he watched Mia constantly hit the two further into the ground. "She only has one Pawn piece, how can she be this powerful?" Kiba asked seeing the amused expression on Kai's face.
"Oh please, she is holding back entirely, she doesn't even need to use her demonic energy to do this, and besides if she did use her full power all of you would be dead" Kai explained looking at the other two peerages. "I don't understand why they aren't fighting back?" Rias said with a hint of worry. "They can't, Mia is controlling the energy around them, so they are unable to move or use any form of magic, they are completely at her mercy" Kai said with a grin. "The only kind of being that has complete command and control over nature energy are" Sona started and Kai smirked. "I see you figured it out Ms Sitri" he said with a chuckle. "What is she?" Rias asked and Sona sighed.
"A fairy, that is the only explanation" Sona said and the others gasped, except Kai's peerage who already knew this. "A fairy, but I thought they were extinct?" Rias said shocked. "Nope, they went into hiding" Kai said as he watched Mia with a smile on his face. "Why?" Rias asked as she watched as her Pawn got chewed up by the earth lion. "Because when angered there are very few that can stop them since they can control something so vast it is dangerous" Kai said as he narrowed his eyes. "Mia is a very special case though, she has complete control over her power, since nature energy is the hardest to control since it is more complex it took a while" Kai explained as he watched the lion sit on the two Pawns. "Well she looks finished" Kai said as he jumped off the barrier.
~o~O~o~
The Battle Arena
Everyone landed on the ground and began walking towards the lion which was still sitting on the two devils. "You really held back" Coral said shocking everyone 'This is holding back' was the collective thought from the other two peerages. When they reached the lion it looked up at them. "You may release them" Mia said and the lion stood up, it walked over to where it was created and turned back into earth making the ground look like it was never even touched.
Issei and Saji were on the ground barely conscious. "Asia would you please" Rias asked her Bishop who ran to the two devil's sides. "Oh goodness" Asia muttered as he hands started to glow green. "Interesting Twilight Healing" Kai said watching as the wounds on the two Pawns very slowly started to heal. After a few minute Asia was still working on them without making much progress "This is taking forever, Becca could you please do it, I'm hungry" Kai complained. Becca came forward as she walked toward the two on the floor. Asia was still sitting there but stood up when Becca was there.
Becca started to glow a slight golden colour, on her head two fox ears appeared and from her lower back nine tails appeared, all were golden in colour with ginger fur at the end of each tail and ear. "She's a kitsune?" Sona asked and Kai nodded. "Yeah, a Kyuubi to be exact" Kai said with pride in his voice. Becca raised her hands creating a golden glow on them then lowered them above the two devils. Once the light faded both Pawns were in perfect condition, their bodies not their clothes, those were still in shreds. "Good work, now we can leave" Kai said as he created a magic circle beneath all of them.
~o~O~o~
Occult Research Clubroom
Everyone arrived back in the clubroom. "Agh" "Gm" looking down Issei and Saji started to wake up properly now. "Morning sleeping beauties" Kai joked as he watched the two Pawns. "What happened?" Issei asked rubbing his head "This" Kai said as he held out his phone. On it was a recording of the entire fight, well one-sided fight. "You recorded it?" Rias said and Kai nodded. "Yeah, Erigon was holding the phone" Kai said with a grin and gave a thumbs up to Erigon who smirked. "Please delete it" Saji begged making Kai raise an eyebrow. "No way, this is too good" he said putting his phone back and stretched.
"Is there anything else because I'm hungry and it's getting late" Kai said with a yawn. "Yes, would you like to join the Occult Research Club?" Rias asked shocking everyone. "But… but… why?" Issei complained at this 'Damn bastard will take away my potential harem' Issei thought watching Kai who just sighed. "Why, I have no reason to do so?" he said watching Rias sigh. "Well what do you want to do?" Sona asked and Kai closed his eyes. "Eat, I'm hungry" Kai said making everyone facepalm. 'He didn't get it' Layla thought as she watched her King head towards the door.
"But, considering that this might be entertaining I will consider joining, but I won't do any of those stupid jobs you do, no summoning or flyer handouts" Kai explained and Rias nodded. "I understand" she said when Kai turned to Ethan "Would you like to come as well, I can tell that Kiba wants to spar with you, I would do it but you know I never draw my sword" Kai said with a slight frown. Ethan looked up to Kiba "Very well, if it is alright with him" he asked and Kiba nodded. "If you are as powerful as Mia is then it would be a challenge" when he said this Kai gave a snort.
"Please, Ethan is 10 times stronger than Mia is at full power" Kai said shocking everyone as he walked over towards the door. "I guess I'll see you tomorrow maybe, but first I want those two Pawns to apologize to Mia for their comment" Kai said as he narrowed his eyes. Issei and Saji instantly went on their knees in front of Mia "WE'RE SORRY!" they both yelled at the same time. "It's alright, I made sure you wouldn't die, besides I think my lion found some new chew toys, you should be honoured" Mia said as she hoped around while Issei and Saji paled. 'Chew toys' they both thought. "See you tomorrow" Kai said as the group vanished through the black magic circle.
Once they were gone Sona sighed. "To think he would have such powerful beings in his peerage" she said and Rias nodded. "A Werewolf, Kyuubi, and even a Fairy" Rias said with a sigh. "Then how powerful is he to be able to control such beings, I mean his attitude is more like a child than a King" Sona said and Rias agreed. "But remember what my brother said 'Please make sure you don't anger him' and he sounded worried when he did" Rias said. "Well, I hope we could get some more answers tomorrow" Rias added. 'I wonder, who is or WHAT is Kai Taisho' Sona thought.

~ Until the Next Chapter ~
NEW CHAPTER
Alright, so instead of doing a Bio for the characters I will introduce them as they go. So Rei is a Werewolf, pure-blooded. Becca is a Kitsune, Kyuubi. Mia is a Fairy.
I was going to have Kai face Issei and Saji but that would be a huge mess since the power difference isn't even funny so I decided to go for the next best thing, getting defeated by a girl, something men are ashamed of. For the next chapter. For the next chapter tell me if you want Riser to come in next, or should that part be entirely different. Also when Ddraig and Vritra awaken and they see Erigon how should they react or even when they see Kai.
Please Review and tell me your answer, also if you like where the story is going so far.
