Chapter 6 Kokabiel Downfall pt1
Ise POV
Rght now i on my way to Kuoh Academy. I going to become new student... Rias was about to go with me but i tell her to go first since i'm new student and i don't want to caught many attention since she is "Onee-sama" in school.. After school i will tell Rias first what i get from Grigori then i going to meet with Xenovia and Irina..
"Who is he?"
"Hey he is cute!"
"He not good as Kiba but hey! He's not bad"
Great Fangirls... I swear Hyoudou will be happy if he hearing this
"Who is that?"
"Another Bishounen?!"
"Damn now Kiba number 2 is arrive"
Yep.. Haters... Great... I sighed and rub my temple while walking until i arrive in my class.. It same class when Hyoudou school
"You may enter and introduce yourself!"
I hear teacher call me then i shrugged and enter the class. I see some girl look at me with skeptical eyes, some boy with curious and... 2 boy glare at me like I'm a curse...
"Hello everyone the name Hyoudou Issei please take care of me well"
I bow a little and smiled to them
"Alright does anyone have question for Hyoudou?"
One of bald student raise his hand and stand, he the one who glare to me. Its Matsuda
"Yeah! Why you have to come here?! Bishounen like you just make our life more harder!"
Before i can respond Matsuda has been silenced by glare from the girls
"And why i make your life more harder? As far i know this is the first time we meet"
I asking back
"Because you have good looking face us normal person is being ignored by every girl!"
I stare at him with blank expression... How.. Lame
"If you don't want to being ignored by girls then do something useful. Like study hard so your grade is up then you can get attention from every girl. You also can teach them if some of them have a bad grade. Next question?"
Everyone stare at me with dinner plate eyes and Matsuda seems gone into deep thought. What? I only answer the question
"Hyoudou Issei-san, where you come from?"
Ask one of girl
"All of you can call me Ise. I'm originally from here but i usually home-school. My parent tell me to try the real school so here i am. Next!"
"What your hobby? Are you taken?"
Ask another girl
"Let see... My hobby... I don't have hobby usually i only stare to the sky or meditating to calm my mind before you ask no. I'm not have mental disease.. And also no. I'm single... Next!"
"Are you good in sport? Which one if you good?"
Ask one of boys
"I can play kendo, baseball, tennis, basketball, football but i'm the best at kendo"
The boys grinned and nodded
"Okay everyone last question before we start the class!"
Yell the teacher
"Can you plays some music tool?"
Ask one of girl
"Hmm.. Violin, Piano and flute"
"Okay that's the last now Ise-san, you can pick your seat"
I smile and nodded then go to Hyoudou old seat and listen to the class
Lunch Break
I sit in roof of school while lean to the wall and stare at the sky
Mann this is really relaxing. Sometime didn't do anything and only stare at the sky like this is also fun
[Enjoying view partner?]
'Yeah... Is been a while since last time i see the sky and cloud like this'
[I know partner. Last time you see the sky is when you date with that Agares girl]
'She has name Ddraig. Seekvaria Agares. Hahaha, yeah i feel bad for her. She is beauty but i'm not in mood for relationship. Hope she can forgive me. Woman is really troublesome'
[You start to sounds like Vali. By any chance you still normal right?]
'Fuck you Ddraig'
[Bwahahaha]
Yep he laugh at my misery what a great partner
"Ise-san?"
I turn and see Asia with some glasses woman. If i recall from Hyoudou memory this girl is Aika Kiryuu
"Is that the man you speak about Asia?"
Kiryuu point her finger toward me. Asia smile and nodded then they approaching me and i stood then look at them
"Uh-hum. Ise-san this is my friend Aika Kiryuu. Kiryuu this is my friend Hyoudou Issei"
"Hi nice to meet ya"
She stretch her hand. I smile and take her hand then shook it
"Is nice to meet you too Kiryuu-san"
"Oh please don't be formal you can call me Aika or Kiryuu"
"Hai. Please call me Ise then"
Then we start to chat and talk but 15 minute before lunch break over they said they have to leave early since Aika has to do something
"See you later Ise-san"
"See you later Ise"
"Yeah see you two later"
I see until both of them out of sight and then i go to side of wall and sit and lean on it while stare at the sky again
"Enjoying view?"
"Yep. Why don't you join us before?"
(Music: Naruto ost 2 Hinata vs Neji on)
From other side of wall Rias stand and lean on it
"I don't want to disturb you three"
She says as she come and sit at my side
"You know... Its okay if you want to leave from my peerage"
"Huh?"
Why she saying that? I mean sure i don't want to be servant but well..
[Partner if you notice it since you come you never talk to her privately like Hyoudou usually do]
'Oh i see... If i recall Hyoudou is always care to her master. *sigh* i'm too stupid for thing like this. Thanks Ddraig-nii for the advice'
"Why you saying that?"
"... Since you become Issei Beelzebub you seems different.. I can't put it by word but it seems you slowly start to away from me"
I'm not good at thing like this. That's why i said Woman its troublesome
"Well.. Actually is not i'm not like you. I mean who not like you? You are beauty, smart and heiress. Every boy would love to date with you"
Rias have a faint blush for my comment. I smile and look to her softly
"I maybe different from Hyoudou. Is because me and him have different life. While Hyoudou have happy childhood and always life in peace i'm not Rias... My childhood is really harsh.. War.. Killing... Lying.. That's my life before as Issei Beelzebub... Even now my soul and his merged i still don't know how to respond to this feeling..."
I smile bitterly when memory of me brutally kill people from New Maou faction flashes in my mind
"PLEASE SPARE MY CHILDREN LIFE!"
"NO! PLEASE DON'T!"
"I BEG YOU PLEASE!"
"MONSTER!"
"DEMON!"
"GET AWAY FROM ME!"
"MAY YOU ROTTEN IN HELL!"
For a second i can feeld their corpse is crawl around my body and try to drag me to death with them
"I'm not hate you Rias.. Is just... *sigh* i'm not good at thing like this"
I close my eyes for a second and another memory, scream ias appear.. I even can see my own eyes when i kill them.. Is cold.. Like the dead itself..
Flashback (Third Person POV)
Ise stand in middle of destroyed house... He wearing a light armor shoulder, plain black t-shirt, brown jeans, fingerless gloves, silver greaves, and brown cape on his back. You can say he will look cool on it but you wouldn't say that because all of his cloth is covered with blood, dried blood can bee seen on his jeans, cape and cloth. His eyes is cold and held no emotion as he stare at the man who wear a light armor and have several wound and cut in his body. On his side a woman who lean on the wall while holding her baby
"*pant* *pant* why? Ise? Why?!" The man yelled
"No hard feeling Jagan... From the beginning i never on your side.. I'm a spy" reply Ise with monotone voice
"After all we do... Everything we do when we together with my family... All of them! Was that all lie?! Tell me Ise?!" Lord Jagan yell again in angry
"Yes all of them" replied Ise bluntly without any remorse. Lord Jagan close his eyes at moment and then get into battle stance
"My love i want you to escape with our child. I will hold him for a while" said Lord Jagan to Lady Jagan
"What? No! I won't leave you behind" yell Lady Jagan but the glare from his husband make her flinch for moment
"This is the only thing we can do! If New Maou faction didn't get this information then all of us will be doomed! Please leave" yell Lord Jagan back. Lady Jagan slowly nodded and then quickly leave
"Goodbye.. My love..." Wwhisper Lord Jagan and then turn to Ise
"Its no use.. I have plant some device on your baby so i can track them down.. They will join you soon Jagan" said Ise in monotone
"Well at least then i just need to hold you back until my wife manage to go to Gremory or Sitri family" replied Lord Jagan as he dash toward Ise
"Fool..."
Ise then blur and appear in front of Lord Jagan then give him toe kick on face immediately send him flying. Lord Jagan who get kicked manage to land softly but then when he rise his head he meet with another kick. On instinct he quickly dodge it and then counter Ise with hook to his face. Ise merely block it with his forearm and then send Lord Jagan away from him with his Energy Force
CRASH!
Lord Jagan smashed the wall and cough some blood. When he want to stand suddenly he felt cold on his stomach. He look below and see a large hole on his stomach
"No hard feeling Jagan... It just an order" said Ise with monotone voice who has smoke come from his palm. Lord Jagan gaze slowly become blur as life start to gone from his body
"I will see you again in afterlife... Hopefully you will realise what have you done... My friend" with that Lord Jagan collapse and dead. Ise merely stare at him then shot another demonic energy and destroy Jagan body without trace. He then suddenly blur away and gone
Lady Jagan run with her baby on her hand, she shedding tears while try to calm her baby who also crying
"Is over Jagan..."
Lady Jagan eyes widened and then she turn and see Ise appear from the bush
"What? How can you track me down here?!"
Ise merely pointed to the baby
"I plant some device on your baby. That device allow me to track you and teleport me to near your baby.. Now surrender Jagan.. All of your clan has dead... Its better if you give up and let me kill you two easily" said Ise with monotone voice
"... But please... At least let my son go!" The woman pleaded with tears in her eyes
"And why i should do that" ask Ise in monotone voice
"Because if you still have heart you will! This baby has done nothing! He just born yesterday! I beg you please! Let him alive" Lady Jagan screamed to him with more tears. Ise only look at her and then a smirk appear in his face
"You know? I think i will let him alive if you saying so... Place him on that branch..."
Lady Jagan quickly nodded and then place her son on the table and turn to see Ise again
"Now... Goodbye..."
CRASH!
Ise stab her right chest with his hand and destroy her lung immediately. Lady Jagan let out scream of pain and then fall to the ground
"You will dead in one minute anyway.. Oh by the way i said i will let your child life right? Well unfornately i LIE!"
"NO!"
Lady Jagan screamed as she struggle to stand and stop Ise but she can't stand due to blood loss and her body become limp because Ise attack, she screamed to Ise who slowly walk toward the branch and begging to him but Ise ignore her plea and brought his hand toward the tree and shot a demonic energy. Destroyed the tree along with the baby...
"NOOOOO!"
Lady Jagan scream as her tears roll more fast seeing her only son killed in front of her. Her world is loss... She seems dead at that moment... She cry in anguish and pain in her heart, ignoring the real pain on the hole in her right chest
"At least be grateful i didn't let Cerberus to eat him and tear him apart" said Ise with cold voice
Lady Jagan hearing this glare to him immediately. This man! No! This... Monster! Even Devil won't step that low! Monster! That the only thing she could describe for him
"You monster! One day you will dead! You won't life forever! You will suffer, cry and regret for what all you done when all of your precious people is killed in front of you!"
Ise face become blank when hearing this and his eyes turn into hollow, he then speak with emotionless voice
"...No... I don't have those precious thing... I also won't cry.. Why? Because i'm a puppet... I held no emotion and held no feeling... I merely do my job... "Annilihate Jagan family"... No hard feeling.. Is just a order"
At that moment Lady Jagan realise what he saying.. Te person in front of her its not a living being.. He just a puppet... Mentally she curse Old Maou faction for destroy someone life and turn him into this mindless creature but she also can't hold the anger within her to this man.. Slowly she smile to Ise
"Someday Ise... You will cry because all thing you had done"
Ise ignoring her then rise his hand and shot another demonic energy toward her and also kill her immediately
Flashback over
That's only one of... Thousand perhaps? Or more? I don't know anymore... I had kill so many... If i die maybe and meet with them all maybe they going to curse me... Lady Jagan right... I'm a monster... Here now i regret all i had i done in my life... Suddenly i felt something hug me. I open my eyes and see Rias is hugging me
"Poor Ise.. Is very bad isn't it? I maybe can't feel it but i know just from listening your past life is must be very bad.. But you must know that you not alone.. You life in different life now.. You no longer have to kill or lying to people... You can life with free.."
She spoke softly and hug me with gentle. I don't know how to respond it.. I never felt like this.. I was a tool... Mindless killer... For many years i'm bury my emotion.. I slowly hug her back with one hand... Sera-chan the one who ever do this to me...
"Thank you... Rias..."
We then get caught in silence... I don't know why but i feel comfortable...
(Music off)
After school with Ise
Well now i'm waiting Xenovia and Irina in some restaurant. Lucky me yesterday i meet some thug who try to stole from me and the result? Well i stole all of their money back! Sweet!
[You do know is crime to steal from someone right?]
'Aw come on Ddraig. I steal from the thief no one going to be mad! Beside i'm True Maou! Stealing is normal for me!' I can feel Ddraig sigh and shook his head troublesome dragon
"When you going to call them?"
Yep after i explain the situation to Rias she understand that this is serious problem and she command Koneko to follow me to meet with the church duo Asia want to follow me but i tell her to stay since she has problem with church for now. I only tell Rias about Grigori never involved but i never tell her that i make a deal with Azazel
"Soon Koneko-chan. Wait a minute"
I then flare my demonic aura a little the compass will able to sense my aura
[Partner i can see your plan is flawless but you have to be quite actor for a while. Think you can handle it?]
'I'm sure Ddraig-nii.. I been trickster and murderer this is only normal thing to do'
Few minute later Irina and Xenovia come.. What thing that Irina brought?
"Yo Irina-chan, Xenovia"
I greeted them and Xenovia nodded to my greet and Irina smile and wave her hand
"I'm sure you has valuable information for us?"
Ask Xenovia she seems in hurry and want to get to the point immediately
"Yes. Please sit for now so we can talk with relax"
Both of them then sit and i clear my throat
"Well i get a lot first all of you must know is-"
RUMBLE RUMBLE
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Xenovia and Irina blush in embarassment since their stomach just growled.. Well i also haven't eat maybe we can eat a little
"Let's talk later. We will eat for now"
"Ise-kun.. We don't have any money"
What the?! Are the church didn't give money for them?!
"That because you used it to buy some stupid painting!"
Xenovia scolded Irina. What painting?
"Is a painting of Saint Peter! Is a high-class art!"
Painting of Saint Peter?
"May i take a look that painting?"
I asked them, Irina nodded and show it to me
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Well? Is great isn't it?!"
Irina... You being tricked... This is are garbage not Saint Peter even Koneko mouth opened and her lolipop fall to the ground
"...Let's order the food for now, i will handle this painting later"
"Delicious! Japanese cuisine is delicious!"
"Yes, yes! This is it! This is the taste of the food of my homeland!"
Irina and Xenovia started to fill their stomachs with the food they ordered at a family restaurant. Man they eat a lot.
[You the one who talk! Look at your own food! And you even still eating!]
I turn and see a 30 bowl of ramen on the ground and i'm on my 31
"Sempai... You eat a lot..."
Koneko stare at me with weird face as she look to the mountain of bowl.. I only grin to her
"Is okay Koneko-chan i still can go. I also have the money"
I then finish my 31th ramen and order 3 more
"Sir i'm sorry but that was the last ramen we had"
"Oh damnit! Do you have any sushi or cake?"
"Sempai remember why we here.."
Ah that's right i almost forgot. I turn to Koneko and give sheepish grin
"Sorry Koneko-chan it seems my appetite is possessed me"
Koneko sigh and nod slowly i only rub my back head sheepisly and turn to Xenovia and Irina
"I don't know you have large appetite Ise-kun"
"Well Irina-chan i can't control my stomach if i eat Ramen, Sushi and Cake. Sorry for that"
Xenovia then clear her throat to get our attention
"Phew. Now I'm calm. It's the end of the world to get helped by a Devil."
That was what Xenovia said.
"Hahaha take it easy Xenovia remember this is help from Welsh Dragon"
Xenovia seems satisfied with my respond and she nodded.
"Pheeeew! Thank you for the meal. Aaaah God, please give charity to these Devils."
Irina said while using her cross. At that moment I got a headache. The same thing happened to Koneko so she were touching her head while for me my eyes just twitched a bit. Seems like us Devils received some damage because she used her cross.
"Ah, I'm sorry. I did it without thinking."
Irina smiled with a cute face. Xenovia drank a cup of water and took a deep breath. She then asked.
"So, what information you get?"
"A lot... First. Grigori never involved. Kokabiel is act by himself i can assure you that my informant can be believed and Second. After i gather information about Kokabiel i start to thinking what he going to do and guess what? His plan is to start another Great War between Three Faction"
Hearing this Xenovia and Irina face turn into serious and they lean closer to heard more about this
"What do you mean by starting war?"
Ask Xenovia, I nodded and then sip my drink and continue
"By stealing Holy sword he want church to send a skilled person since you two know all of your ordinary priest is getting killed. That's why church decide to sent you two.. The church think only Excalibur can win against Excalibur but in fact the church is doing exactly what he want. He will kill you two and steal your Excalibur, while in the same time he do that in teritorry of Rias. Sister of Maou. If he able to make both of faction seems fight each other with result Rias and the church side die in Rias teritorry then another war will be created since church lost their warrior and legendary sword while Sirzechs the Lucifer lost his sister"
Hearing this Xenovia and Irina expression turn into grim both of them seems mad
"I see... This is really dangerous situation... I never thought he plan to lure the other Excalibur since the beginning... Kokabiel really dangerous... He recording in Bible for nothing... We shoiuld inform the higher about this.. This is out of our league already.. We have to ask back up for this mission"
"No. If you do that Kokabiel will fasten his act and we can get more trouble. Right now we have to use all time we have to train and get stronger before Kokabiel decide to attack us.. That's the only thing we can do for now"
We can't tell everyone. It will make thing more hard so we have to wait.. Until he strike.. Let him think he win.. And then when he fly so high we will bring him down so he can't stand anymore.
"I don't think its a wise Hyoudou Issei. No matter how strong we are now i'm not sure we can win against Kokabiel. We can't defeat him yet"
Xenovia didn't hestitate to admit she outmatched. Its a good thing. I like this girl more now. She know when she has to give up and ask for help
[Are you love her already?]
'Ddraig! I'm in serious matter! *sigh*I will deal with you later'
"I know Xenovia. But don't worry about him. It is i the one who take him down if situation got dire. I will tell my dragon to turn me into full dragon if i have to.. I also will ask my friends help.. This is no longer your private mission Xenovia but this already become international problem since Kokabiel plan to start another war"
Xenovia thinking for a while at my statement. She seems reluctant but she slowly nodded and agree. Ah right i have to do something about Kiba
"Oh Xenovia if something is out of control can we destroy Excaliburs that been stolen?"
Xenovia blinked at my question she then stare at Irina who only nodded
"Well you says that we can use power of Sekiryuutei right? Then i will agree with you for now.. Beside even Ise-kun is devil i believe in him"
Irina give me a sincere smile.. Looks like my talk with her about Sacred Gear yesterday is the reason why she believe me.. I only smile back and muttering "thank you". So problem sovled. I have to call Kiba for this
"…I understand the situation."
Kiba put his mouth on the coffee after he made a sigh. We called Kiba to the family restaurant.
*I'm with those two Excalibur wielders. I want you to come here as well Kiba*
When I said that, he came here without any complaint.
"To tell the truth, I feel unsatisfied when the wielders of the Excaliburs are giving me the permission to destroy it."
"That's a rough way to speak. If you were a "Stray-Devil", I would have cut you down without any time to spare."
Kiba and Xenovia glared at each other
"Now now, do we need to fight? If we fail war will be happen and imagine how many life will lost because of that"
Hearing my word Kiba and Xenovia lower their glare and then lean on their chair
"Listen. We going to work together, so i will tell you all this. Whatever i GONNA do. I want you all watching it and do not complain. Its the way i'm work and make sure you watch it entirely.. And no. I'm just saying that because maybe my fight will brutal i have no intention to order you all"
Everyone look into me with strange first but slowly they nodded
"So you do hold a grudge regarding the "Holy-sword Project". Against the church and the Excaliburs."
Kiba sharpened his eyes at Irina's words.
"Obviously."
He replied with a low and cold voice.
"But Kiba-kun. Thanks to that project, the research on holy-sword users showed results. That's why it created people like Xenovia and I who can synchronise with the holy swords."
"Do you think it's a forgiving act to kill all the test subjects because the project was thought to be a failure?"
Kiba looked at Irina with eyes filled with hatred.. Actually the church never agree to dispose them.. It was Balba the one who decide to dispose them. Then Xenovia spoke,
"That incident also became one of the worst cases among us and people felt disgusted about it. The person in charge of that project at that time was said to have a problem with his belief. So he was charged with heresy. Now he's one of those people on the Fallen-Angels side."
"On the Fallen-Angel's side? What's the name of that person?"
Kiba took interest and asked Xenovia.
"…Balba Galilei. The man who is called the "Genocide Archbishop"."
"…If I go after Fallen-Angels, then can I reach him…"
Kiba's eye had the colour of a new determination. Just knowing his target was a big step for him.
"Then it looks like I have to share information as well. The other day I was attacked by a person who had the Excalibur. At that time, he killed a priest. The one who was killed is probably from your organisation."
[!]
Everyone became surprised. Obviously. I never thought that Kiba would have been involved before us. So why was he quiet about it the whole time? I'm sure that he had something in his mind and again he survive against Excalibur? Wow his enemy its sucks!
"The name of that person is Freed Zelzan. Does this name sound familiar?"
Freed Zelzan? If i recall he should be genius! He using Excalibur and still can't defeat Kiba who in blind condition?! Wow some genius he is! I think i should tell them the real reason of this project. I then pull out copy of Balba Galilei, Freed Zelzan and Holy Sword project from dimensional pocket and place it on the table, everyone stare at me and Xenovia asked
"What is that?"
"Read it by yourself"
Few second reading this Xenovia sending me a glare
"Where you get this?! This data only possessed by church!"
"I will answer it later. For now read it until finish"
Xenovia give me a glare again before she turn her face to the data. Few minute later Kiba expression turn into angry and he grit his teeth then smack the data on table
"Are you telling me that Balba killed my comrades and took out the elements needed to wield the holy-swords?!"
"Yes.. But the church and Angel never agree to kill them.. Is Balba own action that he kill your comrades..."
I answer sadly with half opened eyes. Kiba clenched his fist and tears start to roll in his eyes
"Xenovia, Irina-chan is better if we don't talk now... I sure my mom giving you two my number. Please call us immediately if Kokabiel attacking you two and i going to flare my aura when i meet with Kokabiel. Alone we can't beat him but together we maybe stand a chance.. You two is the main target since both of you has Excaliburs so please be careful.. Don't train until you can't move who know Kokabiel will attack you that time"
"Farewell... Thank you for your cooperation and for the meal.. We'll call you if something happen"
"Don't worry Ise-kun we will be fine! Thanks for your help and meal! Treat me again next time as well! Even if you are a Devil, God will allow it if it's Ise-kun who treats me to a meal! It's okay if it's food!"
"Gladly Irina-chan see you later Xenovia-chan, Irina-chan"
I smirk inwardly seeing Xenovia has faint blush though is only for a second while Irina winked to me and then both of them leave. I then turn into Kiba who being comforted by Koneko. After done crying he then look into me
"…Ise-kun. Why did you do this?"
Kiba asked me quietly. He was certainly wondering why I was helping him out with his revenge well i promise to Hyoudou i won't let who precious to him hurt didn't i?
"Why? Of course to help you. You are my friend and comrade. Though i'm not your first comrade but i will be damned if i let you become stray and get hunted by other Devil. You are not alone anymore Kiba.. You has us... Your new family... That's why.. Return with us to Rias and then we will get through this together"
Well looks like Hyoudou kind personallity rubbed to me a bit. Kiba look into me with wide eyes Koneko also give him a smile
"…Yuuto-sempai. Club would get lonely if smnpai disappeared.. We will help you…that's why please don't go... Everyone in club has harsh life before that's why we don't want to lose anyone again"
Kiba then slowly has smile on his face seeing us
"Farewel i will go back to the club... If Koneko-chan also says that to me, then I can't do reckless things. Thanks to Ise-kun, I know who my true enemy is. But since we are doing this, we are definitely going to defeat the Excalibur... I give you my greatest thanks Ise-kun"
"Don't mention it Kiba as i says we are comrade and friend"
I answer with genuine smile
[This part is the hardest and you manage to complete it partner]
'I know Ddraig... But phase one would be completed soon.. After all we already get through the hardest part of phase one... Now we just need to wait for Kokabiel to act.. I already put it into this city...'
Few days later
I was on the roof as usual and stare at the sky. We have warn Sona about this.. So our group trained more hard to prepare ourself so we ready if Kokabiel attacked. But if he come i will gladly welcomed him.. My body has become perfect.. I getting stronger than before. Even with my 5 seals i still strong enough to take down one of Maou. According to Ddraig my level now is one level above Heavenly Dragon and if i use his power then our power is can on par with 4 Heavenly Dragon! Hahaha take that Vali! I can't wait to show it to you!
"Enjoying the view again Ise?"
I turn and see Aika and Asia in door. Lately i hanging out with them a lot. Aika seems comfortable with me and she is good friend though she little strange. One day i caught she stare at my crotch and then her face become red. I wonder why?
"Hello Asia-chan, Aika. How's your two day?"
"Hello Ise-san. I doing fine today"
"Well like Asia said nothing special is happen is normal day. Perverted Duo get mauled by Kendo club again as usual"
It should be Perverted Trio with Hyoudou on their group... You have to thanks me Hyoudou for save your skin from Kendo club wrath
"I see... Those two still not learn.. I already told them to attract girl attention by using another way*sigh*"
"Well is their nature to be pervert. It can't be helped"
"Hahaha i heard Motohama has ability to measure woman body with his glasses. It really dangerous ability for woman. I wonder are those ability really exist"
Aika face become red when i saying this. Don't tell me that pervert harras Aika!
"Well apparently is true..."
"... They didn't harras you right?"
"What? No! They didn't care about me so do i though is funny sometime to see their expression"
"I see... Good then i didn't need to pay visit to them for harrassing you. How about you Asia-chan? Are they do something strange to you?"
"No Ise-san. I'm fine they didn't do anyhting to me"
I smiled and nodded Aika have a faint blush. I don't get it i didn't said anything good to her why she blushing?
"Anyway how about if we go to karaoke and bowling on next week?"
"Sounds great! Who will be joining?"
"Hmm i will ask Kiba and Koneko to come with us how about it?"
"Well if those two i don't mind how about you Asia?"
"Uhm! I also don't mind"
After school
Me, Koneko, Kiba and Saji walking home together. Ever since i warn Sona and Rias we decide to never let our comrade walk alone just in case
I'm not close to Saji but maybe i have to open up to him. He also the only male devil other than me and Kiba in school..
"Kiba, Saji, Koneko-chan. I plan to go karaoke and bowling with Asia and Kiryuu later if problem with Kokabiel done. Would you three join us?"
I ask politely, Kiba thinking for a while and nodded followed by Koneko
"Hmm... I will see my schedule then. You know Kaichou is strict right?"
"Hahaha i know it must be very busy to become Student Council, i don't mind if you can't come but if you can please join us. We maybe have a bad history before but hey! Its all in past"
Saji smile and nodded too well this can start our friendship. However i suddenly stop walking and then Kiba followed me. I quickly flare my demonic energy to call Xenovia and Irina
"…Yuuto-sempai, Ise-sempai"
Koneko also seemed like she felt something.
HEART BEAT.
That instant I felt chills in my body. This was a killing intent? Its very weak
"Look up!"
Saji shouted. When all of us looked up, there was a white haired boy priest falling down with a long sword
"Something like a divine protection for the group of priests ay!"
KACHIN!
Kiba took his demonic-sword out quickly and blocked Freed's slash.
"Freed!"
"…! Is that voice you, Ise-kun? Heeee. Well isn't this a weird reunion!? How is it? Has your Dragon power increased? Is it all right to kill you now?"
Well as much i want to kill you now but i can't.. You will move according to my plan.. I also wanted Kiba to fight as much as he could, but I would have to help if it got dangerous.
"Stretch my line!"
SWISH!
Something that looked like a skinny black hand left Saji's hand and headed for Freed. On his hand, there was a cute looking deformed lizard face equipped. The line was coming from its mouth. Then that skinny hand was the tongue of the lizard. Its Absorption Line
"Such a pain!"
Freed tried to knock it away with his holy-sword, but the lizard's tongue changed its direction and went downwards. It stuck onto Freed's right foot, and it started to swirl around his leg. Freed tried to cut the tongue off with his swords, but it went past as if the tongue didn't have any physical form.
"You can't cut it that easily. Kiba! With this he can't escape! Beat him down!"
Good work Saji! I see, he stopped his movements! Freed has fast legs. It's a good idea to stop him from escaping. You have a sharp head, Saji!
"Thank you!"
Kiba rushed in quickly! He was going towards Freed with two demonic swords.
"Chi! So it's not only the "Holy Eraser", I see! Having multiple demonic-swords. Are you the possessor of "Sword Birth", perhaps? Wow. You are guilty of having a rare Sacred Gear, you know!"
Freed seemed like he was enjoying it, which was the opposite of what he was saying. He's crazy yes. Battle freak? Nope. Battle freak its a person who enjoy battle not someone who talk randomly like him
"But. Normal demonic swords can't put up a challenge against…"
KACHIN!
Kiba's two demonic swords broke after making a sound of a crack!
"…my Excalibur-chan."
"Ku!"
Kiba once again created demonic swords. But as usual Excalibur break the demonic swords in a single swing
"Need help Kiba?"
"I can still go on!"
Kiba declined my support. It seemed he was quite ticked off. And i was hoping that he realise that he outmatched... Damn to your pride Kiba
"Hahaha! The way you look at my Excalibur is scary. Do you perhaps hold a grudge against it? Well I don't know what happened to you! But if you get cut by this, you can't avoid being eliminated without a trace you know? You will die, you know! You are going to die! Just die!"
Freed jumped. Kiba tried to block him by making the demonic swords appear around the area. But…
KACHIN!
The holy-sword, which was covered in white-blue light, broke Kiba's swords in a single blow! Freed did his second strike without any moment to spare
BAM!
I stand in front of Kiba with one hand stretched. I send Freed flying and made him hit the wall with my Energy Force
"What was that?!
Freed yelled
"Now Kiba!"
I transfered my demonic power a little to him and then he quickly active "Sword Birth" as countless Demonic sword appear from the ground
Kiba disappeared with his demonic-sword as soon as he found an opening. He moved around freely. That's to be expected from the "Knight" with speed. Kiba is talented swordman he just doesn't have good sword against Freed. Freed was following Kiba's movement with his eyes
SWISH!
Along with the sound of the wind, there was a demonic-sword heading towards Freed! Kiba threw one of the demonic swords when he was using the demonic-swords as a foot path! No. It's not just one demonic-sword. There were several demonic-swords coming from every direction. Good trick Kiba
"Uhaa! That is a good circus trick! You rotten Devil!"
KACHIN! KACHIN! KACHIN!
Freed knocked away the demonic-swords one after another with an expression of excitement
"My Excalibur is "Excalibur Rapidly"! In terms of velocity, it won't lose to anything!"
The holy-sword that Freed held started to vibrate at the tip, and then disappeared. Freed destroyed all of the demonic-swords and then rushed towards Kiba
KACHIN!
"It's not working!"
The demonic-swords that Kiba had in both hands crumbled. Of course! Fighting in here its bad idea! You didn't have much area to use your speed
"DIE!"
I was about to jump again but i notice Saji expression so i stay calm. The moment Freed's sword was going downwards at Kiba
PULL.
Freed's body was pulled back, and he lost his balance.
"Like I would let you!"
Saji the one who did it. The lizard pulled its tongue back, which made Freed lose his stance! At the same time, the lizard's tongue made a shallow light. It looked like it was coming from Freed and going into Saji.
"…This is!? Shit! Are you absorbing my powers!?"
"Heh! How's that! This is my Sacred Gear "Absorption Line"! As long as this line is connected to you, your power will continue to be absorbed by my Sacred Gear! Yeah! Until you lose your consciousness that is!"
Hmm... Not bad Saji not bad.. But you still have many to learn about your Sacred Gear
"…Dragon-type Sacred Gear is it!? The most troublesome type. The initial ability isn't that much of a threat. But when it grows, the destructible power surpasses other Sacred Gears on a whole different level. Scary. Man, it is such a nuisance!"
Freed tried to take it off again with his holy-sword, but there wasn't a scratch on Saji's Sacred Gear.
"Kiba! It's not the time to be complaining! Just beat that guy! The problem with the Excalibur can come after that! This guy is seriously dangerous! Just standing in front of him makes me tremble! If we leave him be, he will also cause harm to me and Kaichou! I will weaken him by absorbing his power with my Sacred Gear, so take him down at once!"
Saji suggested a plan. It was a good plan indeed. I also thought that was the best method. This guy was seriously dangerous. It was better to finish him here. But Kiba put on a complicated expression. I knew the reason. He was regretting because he couldn't win with his own power curse your pride Kiba! I can kill Freed right now if i want but i doing this to make you realise the situation! If you finish him now then it would be beneficial for the future! Kiba created a demonic-sword as if he had made his determination about time you showed that!
"…I feel reluctant, but I also agree to finish you off here. There's still two more Excaliburs that were stolen. I will have to hope that the other two are strong"
"Ha! I'm stronger than the other two, you know? So! The moment you four beat me, there aren't others who will put up with you guys! Are you sure? If you kill me, you won't have any holy-sword battle that would satisfy you."
Well i happy Kiba decide to finish him. But i sure he's not alone now. Hmm where is his partner?
"Hmmm. "Sword Birth" huh? It's a Sacred Gear that can have an infinite number of powers depending on the possessor."
Then there was the voice of another person ha! As expected! When I looked that way, there was an old man wearing priest clothes standing there.
"…Is it you old-man Balba?"
Everyone but me became shocked at Freed's word
"…Balba Galilei!"
Kiba glared at the old man with eyes full of hatred.
"I certainly am."
The old man admitted it normally
"Freed. What are you doing?"
"Old-man! I can't run away because of this guy's weird lizard tongue!"
"Hmph. You still can't use the holy-sword perfectly yet. Use the "element" I gave you more wisely. I'm researching because of that. Gather the holy element that is running throughout your body to the blade of the holy-sword. With that, you should be able to cut it."
"Yeah, yeah!"
Freed's holy-sword had started to gather auras and started to glow!
"Like this! Horyah!"
CUT.
Saji's Sacred Gear was cut with ease, and the only thing that was holding Freed was gone
"I will be escaping now! The next time we meet will be the time of our ultimate battle!"
Freed said that but…
"I won't let you escape!"
There was someone who went past me with a very fast speed.
KACHIN!
There was a blade clashing with Freed's holy-sword that was igniting sparks! It was Xenovia!
"Yaho! Ise-kun. Thanks for calling us!"
"About time you two showed up!"
"Freed Zelzan. Balba Galilei. Rebels. I will cut you both down in the name of God!"
"Ha! Don't say the name of the hateful God that I hate! You bitch!"
Freed and Xenovia exchanged swords, but he took something out. It was a ball of light
"Old-man Balba! We are escaping! We are going to report to the boss, Kokabiel!"
"There's no other way."
"See ya! The alliance of Church and Devils!"
Freed threw down the ball of light on the ground.
FLASH.
I couldn't see anything. The light covered the whole area and blinded our eyes. By the time we regained our sight, Freed and Balba were gone
"We are going after them Irina."
"Okay!"
Xenovia and Irina nodded at each other and sprinted from here.
"I'm going after them too! I won't let you escape Balba Galilei!"
"Oy! Oy! Kiba! Remember what our purpose!"
They then left me, Koneko and Saji
"We will report it to Rias for now! Saji go tell Sona-san and meet us in Old house!"
Saji nodded and then we running back, no ona notice my smirk when i turn around
"I see.. The situation become dire.."
Says Sona as she shift her glasses while Rias rub her temple
"So Yuuto went after that person called Balba?"
"Yes. I think he's with Irina and Xenovia… I think that he's going to call us if something happens…"
"Do you think Yuuto who became an avenger would call us normally?"
"Rias.. Have faith in Kiba.. Even if he didn't call us he going to survive. He know when he outmatched, i already see it. He accept Saji help in middle of battle that mean he already know his limit"
"Is that true Saji?"
"Hai Rias-sempai"
"I see... Is good then... What should we do then now?"
"We wait for them"
Everyone stare at me with confused face
"Right now we don't have much choice except waiting them... We don't know where they are now so we have to be wait for them.. But we have to be ready anytime since they can call us anytime"
I said with serious face
'Ise... What were you thinking? I sure we can do other thing than waiting though is true what you says' thougt Sona as she stare at me
"Sona-san? Is something wrong with my face?"
Sona must be notice something strange with me. Well she learn from experience
"Nothing Ise. I think we should leave now.. We better get ready for the battle"
We nodded and then soon Sona and Saji leave. Me and Rias decide to go home. Rias has decide to stay with me since Kiba leave so i can give her news about Kiba though Kiba is already back but i don't know why she still staying in my place. Ah well is not like i bothered anyway
"Wait Ise! I have to pick something i left!"
I nodded and then Rias go back to old house to pick something she left
[Phase one complete partner!]
Yeah Ddraig.. Phase one complete... Phase two is already on the way... We just need to wait and act for this... I smirk evilly while Ddraig let out a sinister laugh that i never heard since a long time ago
Omake: Payback
"Fufufu that's nun really have a good money" said some merchant as he count the money on his hand
"Excuse me sir can you help me?"
The merchant then turn and see a long brown haired girl with tanned skin around 18 wearing a black tank top with short pant and has DD cup breast. The merchant then slowly has perverted grin
"Sure what can i do for beautiful girl like you?
"I think something is wrong with my eyes.. Can you look into it?" Ask the woman with sultry voice and puppy eyes
"Now my lady i think your eyes is fi-"
Suddenly the man eyes become hollow when he meet with the women eyes. The women eyes turn into crimson and have black makibishi shape as pupil and she grinned
"Of course nothing wrong with my eyes foolish human"
POOF
The woman body explode in poof and then when it cleared Ise stand in where the woman before stand
"Now i want you to give all of money you get from the nun yesterday to me and you give it triple than the amount you get from her"
"Yes..."
Ise smirked and then take the money from the man
"Now let see what kind of punishment i have for trickster like you"
[Talk about trickster didn't you just done one by yourself?]
'Well this is Hell Punishment for him Ddraig'
[I pity the man if you the one who punish him]
Ise began to think for a while then suddenly a light bulb appear on his head as he grinned evilly
"You will get back to yourself after you done what i command tomorrow"
Next day
"Here Irina-chan the money that been stolen from you" Ise said as he handed the money
"Thank you Ise-kun. With this Xenovia and me can eat and life in hotel again" Irina grinned and take the money but then her eyes narrowed when she count the money
"Ise-kun... This is more many than we have before" said Irina this also get Xenovia attention
"Are you giving extra money to us?" ask Xenovia
"Ah? No, no, no. The seller said you can keep it since he regret for lying to beauty like you two" winked Ise make Irina and Xenovia have a faint blush though Xenovia seems act like didn't care
"I-I see... Well then where the merchant? We want to meet with him if he want to apologise" said Irina after she regain her composure
"Ah? About that he said he have something to do" answer Ise with sweet smile... Too sweet for ordinary sweet smile
Later
Irina and Xenovia currently sit in cafe and drinking, they speak about Holy sword that's until something caught their attention
"I'M THE ALMIGHTY SERVANT OF LEADER OF FALLEN ANGEL KOKABIEL! I WILL BRING HELL TO ALL OF YOU!"
Hearing this they turn and prepare to fight just in case that Kokabiel plan to make ruckus in street but what they see quickly make their jaw to the ground.. They see.. A man around 35 wearing the same outfit that Irina wear when she in battle outfit, they can see their fat and ass. The cloth so tight that make it look more disgusting. He have the same painting that Irina thought as Saint Peter and also some sword toy while running around and swing the sword
"I SHALL KILL YOU ALL! GET OUT OF MY WAY! BWAHAHAHA! BOW! BOW TO THIS ALMIGHTY PAINTING! THE PAINTING OF ALMIGHTY KOKABIEL!"
He shouted while show the painting and swinging the sword toy around to swipe the people around who try calm him
"Irina... Is that?" Ask Xenovia slowly
"Yes Xenovia..." Answer Irina immediately
Since that day both of them swear that they won't messed with Issei anymore
