Chapter 3. Investigation


Madara stare at the screen in front of him with thoughtful face as his Sharingan blazing in power, mesmerizing the data and everything the screen displayed. Surrounding him is countless dead body and blood of people he slaughtered to get the data

It been few months ever since he find himself placed in this new... World...

He must said he find himself surprise, no. Not the existence of this new World bt surprise to find out he still alive after Juubi extracted from him

How did that happen?

His memory actually little blur after Kaguya take over his body but he still able to put the puzzle together when the Goddess fighting Uzumaki and one of his own descendant

And not just that, apparently his body regressed into teenager, a 15 years old teenager! No wonder those fallen angel call him brat that time

His only theory is maybe the remnant of Kaguya power inside him is the one who responsible for this, that is the most logical explanation

Fortunately, despite his body and age got regressed he still maintain his power. He still have all his ability and Chakra reserve. But there little problem

He can't use Rinnegan...

Not permanent thankfully but it seems his power quite depleted than the original. Whenever he use the Eyes of Sage it take quite amount of his power and it larger than usual

Nonetheless, for him it only little drawback

And now about this World...

This World unlike his... Human in here is weak and veeeery, mind you very weak. Civilian in his own World maybe can become one of best martial artist in here

After the research he find out this World didn't possess Chakra... That's the reason why Human in here is weak and also there no Bijuu...

No Bijuu, but Madara concluded Shinju does exist in here...

Giving Shinju nature as Primordial Being that responsible for the creation the World where he living in, he concluded similar thing happen in here

But there difference in this World and his

He don't know how it work since his information incomplete but apparently the Shinju in this World become alive by itself and split, thus giving born to new being that similar like Bijuu

Those entity called Gods in here...

He snorted a bit at that...

Those Gods in his eyes only Bijuu who more smart than normal... And also taking humanoid form...

And the group of bird man he encounter in first. They called fallen angel, an entity that birthed from God of Bible, they are the entity that supposed to display purity and kindness

But they fall into dark side, thus becoming what they are now...

And once again, Madara proved his theory is right. There no one is perfect, even entity like angel can fallen

Whenever there is light, there are shadow. That was absolute and WILL be always become absolute law in the World, doesn't matter what universe or World is it, that law and principle will always exist

Back to track, the Human in this World actually not that defenseless. Apparently the God of Bible decide to give them a gift, something called Sacred Gear

That was something that perk his interest, right now Madara want nothing but to gain information about this World

He still not sure what he should do in this new World seeing his dream actually nothing but a dream...

He don't know what to do in here, however he know one thing is he need to gain information first, knowledge is power after all and before he decide what he want to do, he have to gather as much as information he know

"Holy Grail... Longinus that able to give the information about life and death..." Madara read the data from the computer in front of him, smirk slowly adorn his face. He found it, something that will give all the information he should know. He finally found his targer, for now all he need is to find the possessor of this thing

And for someone like him, he sure he will find it without much problem. With Rinnegan that capable to stole information in people mind like google in internet, he sure it just matter of time before he find his target

His chuckle echoed in the dark place where he stood, the chuckle vibrate through the whole room and if one who know Madara hear it, they will know that laugh never have good intention


"I wouldn't be so sure if I were you." Ise smirked before flame ignited from both his arms, engulf it until reach elbow

"IF you were me. Fortunately, I'm not you. Now die!" Ariel rain down the whole spears as it launched to Ise in below

Ise dashed from his position, he twist his body and bend it as he dodge the projectiles that rain down to him. He skidded as dodge the spear that impaled in front of him, rising his flaming hand, he destroy few spears that almost hit him

He flipped as he dodge a wave of ice beam that shooted by Ariel before his flaming hand blazing, with quick he brought his hand and swing it, sending wave of flame that soar to Ariel and cut through the fallen angel attack

Ariel flap her wings and she dodged however Ise already anticipated this. His elbow and leg explode in flames, boosting his speed, he appear in front of unprepared fallen angel and deliver strong thrust to her face

The attack hit Ariel straight, she swear she can feel her jaw just broken as she soar down and fall to the ground. However Ise not done, he gather flames in both his hand and it swirl around it

"Karyū no Rasenbakufū (Fire Dragon's Spiralling Blast)" He send down massive of swirling sphere of blazing flame down to Ariel

The fallen angel who just stand had wide eyes before her World turned to bright flame

BOOOOOOOOM!


Earlier before the battle in Church, Kuoh Academy

Rias Gremory are depressed and bored...

The reason?

She can't find good peerage for match against Raiser...

She knew the day of her wedding with Raiser is near. She really wish to not marry him. It because she still didn't want to married. She still young.. Too young, heck she still want to to become college student!

She had dream! And if she married Raiser, she won't be able to reach her dream!

What did her parents think to betroth her with Raiser is beyond her mind!

If Raiser is decent guy like his big brother Ruval at least she won't have problem. But Raiser is the problem...

He are arrogant, bastard, prick, and playboy! She sure he want to marry Rias because only lusting over her body and her status as Gremory! He only see her as trophy! Nothing more nothing else

But despite how she hate the condition, she knew fighting against Raiser in her current condition is loss. Raiser is strong and never lose in Rating Game this far, save for two times and it because he let his opponent win rather

The only one who stand a chance against him in his generation probably only Sairaorg, she sure of that. Not to mention the number of his peerage also surpass her

Her only hope is Hyoudou Issei

It was big gamble and risk to her... When she hear there activity from fallen angel that want to check on high level Sacred Gear, she immediately try to find their target and she find out it was Hyoudou Issei

Hyoudou Issei by any mean is only normal student in Kuoh Academy. Heck, she not even know he exist until just recently - few weeks ago when she check on student list she found Ise is transfer student in his first year -

And it proved true when she order Koneko to check on him, there something inside him that suppressed or sleeping which mean it must be him

With that she began to form plan. No doubt the fallen angel will try to kill him, and after that done she will be there to resurrect her after he dead

Sound manipulative?

Well... While she hate it but she actually don't have any choice... She really wish it won't come to like this but she need strong peerage to beat Raiser...

She make a promise after the plan launched and succeed she will make Ise comfortable as possible as she can in order to atone what she did

Beside she is devil, it not like they pure creature in first place after all

She predict it either yesterday or today, Ise will be killed today mostly. Yesterday maybe the fallen angel little busy but she had no doubt today they will act

BOOOM!

A sudden explosion from far immediately make the whole student including Rias surprise and some even let out shriek. They all immediately turned their attention to window and see... A smoke that spew out in some place, it was far but still able to be seen from the distance not to mention their class in top floor

"What the hell?!"

"What's that?!"

"Terrorist attack?!"

Murmur and whisper from students erupted, some even stand and open the window to get clearer view to see the explosion itself. It wasn't long that student began to slight panic

The teacher in class who seeing this immediately act to calm the students "Everyone! Calm down! That explosion is far from here! There won't be any problem so sit back to your place!"

It take some time but the students begrudgingly go back to their seats, however Rias and other that aware of supernatural being existence did not move their gaze back to teacher, they keep their gaze focus to explosion

It was not bomb... But it was an attack. It filled with energy, not a mundane technology or simple weapon...

It only mean one thing... Someone entering their territory and cause ruckus openly...

Rias cast glance to Akeno, Sona and Tsubaki. The three of them look back at her and they give each other nod before casting illusion to the whole class. Afterward they order their own familiar to replace them for moment and gone to where the explosion occurred


With Madara

It wasn't surprising for Madara to see Raynare actually sleep in here tonight so she can go with him early, apparently the fallen angel not quite morning person. So she afraid she will late thus sleep in their place

He or Ise doesn't have problem with that, Hyoudou Residence is 2-story house after all and have 6 bedrooms. Raynare can use one of them if she want, which she did

So here is he now. Sitting in dining room while drink his tea and read some folder that he get from his spy network about Rias Gremory and Sona Sitri, followed by their peerage

It wasn't hard to gain data about them seeing his spy is quite deep in all faction side. Sharingan proved very useful after all, this World Genjutsu is not as high as his World

If there another person who possess Sharingan in this World, he/she will be very known. No doubt about that


In another DxD universe, certain brother of pervert Sekiryuutei sneezed


Madara must admit, Sirzechs Lucifer called as strongest Monster in Devil side is for nothing. That man really know how to play, even he playing another Devil live.

Madara notice, when people talk about Devil. The Maou that crossed in all faction mind, is no other than Sirzechs Gremory. And Madara also admit that man is clearly Monster on his own level, that man is Devil despite his current peaceful behavior

But that not make Madara afraid to him... Because Madara himself know, that he is Monster that bigger than the Crimson Satan. They maybe born in same era, era when people in War but Madara era have bigger Monster

One must said, there no cruelest and more rude Monster, than Human...

But those Monster never exist in here... It because they cut down, by Gods and another being

But in his World?

There no Gods or limiter...

The only Humanity in those Monster in his World, is only their form. But their heart is even crueler than Bijuu

This... Only matter of time... He can see it how to make Rias Gremory peerage one by one perish to his hand if he want, he can see the multiple button that filled his table. Oh yes, one button and he will get one of them with ease, heck! He even can make Rias hate her own brother

Serafall Leviathan... Despite her kind and childish nature, she, herself also Monster. The Devil now maybe peaceful but they still Monster under those peaceful skin, Madara can see all that

No one in old generation after death of God of Bible is innocent, no matter how kind they are. Even Archangel Michael himself is not as kind and pure people think

And like Rias, Madara can push many button and make Sona hate Serafall if he want. Its not hard after all, Devil make big mistake in raising their children, a VERY big one mind you. And because of that, Madara can see it. A revolt of the current generation against old one could happen if someone hit the right button

And Madara know which button he should push to make that happen

But he won't do that, he still need them to exist after all for his own benefit. So he will let them for moment, he already have spy inside them, a very strong spy that no one will think he/she is spy. He can't imagine how every Devil will react when find out who his spy is

Ah, he out of his track again. The reason why he not destroy Devil now is because he have another prey

Khaos Brigade...

That organization born few years before Madara come to this World. It was quite small that time, only few who support it but now it become big one.

Madara doesn't afraid even to this called Infinite Dragon, or Dragon God, Ophis. In his eyes, it only another Bijuu. And what he do to Bijuu?

He turn them to his bitch... And that time, there 9 of them against him, alone. So why he must afraid to only one Bijuu?

That was ridiculous beyond any measure

But what make Madara interested is, there shadow that hide under that organization. A shadow that quite dark... And that shadow is the real leader of Khaos Brigade

Ophis only symbol but it not the leader, this shadow are

Rizevim Livan Lucifer...

The Son of the True Lucifer. The original Lucifer...

Anyway, that story for another time. Now he have to decide, will he plant his seed to Gremory family or not? And there factor of Kuroka little sister too, no doubt the Black Cat will want to have her sister in their group

Not to mention there this Gasper Vladi, a Dhampir who possess Forbidden Balor View and also childhood friend of Valerie, the possessor of Holy Grail

Oh yeah... This peerage actually is treasure...

But stealing from Rias Gremory who is sister of Sirzechs Lucifer will make them become big target

And again, since when Madara Uchiha afraid to them?

Well, he decide to think about it later. Now he better to pick mission and target for his boys and girls who now waiting in their HQ

"Madara-sama..."

Madara glanced up from his folder, staring at Raynare who just awake and wearing casual cloth, bowing to him. He give grunt of acknowledgement to the fallen angel

Raynare stared at Madara with slight pink adorn her face, she murmured good morning in meek manner before went to kitchen "I-Is there something I can made for you?" She asked her superior

"Offer that when you wake early." Madara replied bluntly make the girl grimaced

"Sorry..." She muttered, while she still remember what Ise said yesterday but doing it directly is still something else! Ah, speaking about Ise "Umm, where Hyoudou-sama?" She asked

"Go to the Church, he will take care of them... He will be quick, probably already fin-"

BOOOOM!"

Madara stopped when he hear voice of explosion from far away, he also feel Ise power spike for moment and his eyes twitched

Raynare also display surprise look as she immediately went to backyard and see there smoke far from their place and she noted it come from church direction

"That Boy..." Madara sighed as he rub his temple, he should know Ise will cause large damage. It was his nature after all, he one of army destroyer in Akatsuki so of course there will be destruction wherever he fight

"That's Hyoudou-sama?" Raynare asked in slight surprise

"Among Akatsuki main members, Ise is one of members that caused large destruction. All his technique mostly is aimed to kill an army or larger opponent, it wasn't surprise since he is Sekiryuutei..." Madara said simply "If you wish to do something, go make food for that Boy and meet him in his school. After that meet me in station..." He suggested

"A-Ah?! O-Okay!" Raynare stammered a bit and Madara grunted in Uchiha manner

He don't care about her, not even a bit. But at least he can enter her to special normal pawn, she after all is one of few who willing to join Akatsuki without their mind broken by him in Tsukuyomi World


With Ise

Hyoudou Issei stare at the ruin of the Church in front of him

There nothing to explain in the scenery he currently see save for destruction

And it all because he went overboard...

Again...

"Madara-sama won't be pleased..." He muttered with grimace, oh yeah. He can imagine it already, the Uchiha Ancestor stare down at him, his eyes blazing red with his arms crossed

He hold the urge to shudder at the image. He knew he actually should not destroy the whole Church like this. The Three Faction no doubt going to check on this.

[You better leave now while you can...] Ddraig reminded his host [Seriously, if you will destroy this Church in the end at least use my power.] He stated

'That's not the point!' Ise retorted "Urk! I have to leave now, damn! Rias Gremory and all Devils will be here in no time. I have to go back to school!" He grumbled before he leaving

And it was true, five or ten minutes as soon he leaving the Devils come and check on the Church


Later, after school

Ise whistling while he on his way to go home. There nothing much happen today after his fight in Church other than Raynare who give him bento box before departed back to go to station to take Asia

The Devils in Kuoh Academy also appear to be slight suspcious on him but it reduced since they apparently see him also in school at same time when he the attack occur

He still don't know why Madara want to stay low. Akatsuki already have conflict with Three Faction before, and the people of Khaos Brigade who spying on the Three Faction no doubt already warned them about their existence

As he arrive in his home, he pull out the key and unlock the door. He enter to it and yell "I'm home!" before remove his shoes

"Welcome home Hyoudou-sama!"

Ise turned and see Raynare wearing pink t-shirt with white skirt along with apron "How school Hyoudou-sama?"

"Boring as usual. I just want to go to mission or somewhere else..." Ise sighed while grumbling

"Well, it can't be helped. I, myself also know how boring espionage mission.." Raynare chuckled in understanding manner "Umm... By the way, Ise-sama... Is she-"

"Mittelt save..." Ise cut her with grunt "I hurt her, but not too fatal. I already edit her memory too about my appearance. There nothing to worry..." He said and Raynare let out sigh of relieve

"I'm glad..." Raynare whispered "Among our group, Mittelt is the youngest and she only become fallen angel because she birthed from one. She actually good girl but due to our environment..."

Ise merely stare at Raynare with impassive face. Last night, she asked him to spare one fallen angel, Mittelt. She asked personally because she knew if Madara get her hand on Mittelt, there big chance the girl will be killed

According to Raynare, Mittelt actually innocent one. She didn't know they work for Kokabiel, she still think they work under Kokabiel order. That was quite sad actually, and Mittelt apparently also maybe one or two years younger than him

He already send Mittelt back to Grigori via magic circle teleportation and she will arrive directly in Azazel place. That will made the girl got protected by the Governor himself and unlike Raynare who already too deep in Akatsuki, Mittelt still has her chance

"For fallen angel... You clearly something..." Ise remarked and Raynare chuckled

"My wing not always black Hyoudou-sama..." Raynare murmured with bitter tone make Ise grunted in acceptance

"This maybe personal, but what Sin that make you fall?" Ise asked and Raynare stiffened a bit "Just short version not need to share it too deep." He added

Raynare seems feel uncomfortable for moment as she see Ise gaze to her. Her past is something that she never like to talk, but there something about Ise that make her seems believe in him

After moment of considering she stare at Ise eyes with distance look "I fell to revenge..." She said with bitter tone make Ise eyes widened "Me, and him not lover. We only friend... He are normal Youkai, a simple two tailed Yōko. Our meeting was pure coincidence, angel wasn't often to go out from Heaven. So when I go outside I talk and be friend with him. The short version, one day a group of onmyōji and priest try to exterminate him just because there some plague in their land. They was think it was my friend who responsible... And I..."

"Stop..." Ise cut her make she stare at him with surprise "I already get the story. Not need to explain it further.." He said, he can see Raynare feel uncomfortable the moment she near the ending and Ise while can kill people in cold blood but if he at least still have his own moral code and will follow it if the situation not so urgent

"Thank you Hyoudou-sama." Raynare said gratefully

"I didn't do anything, you not need to thank me." Ise simple response "By the way, that Asia Argento girl..." He trailed as he notice Raynare sad face, and it take moment for Ise before he understand "So Madara-sama told her..."

Raynare give sad nod at Ise statement, she let out slight sigh as she recall the girl broken face "After we arrive in here, Madara-sama immediately told her the truth about the death of the God..."

Ah yes, that also one thing that surprise even Ise. Christian and Catholic, those religion is no doubt the biggest in the World and the God of Bible is very famous for giving birth to many thing, including Human. It was no doubt for Ise that God of Bible could be considered as one of Strongest Being in this World

To think he is dead is very surprise. Ise can imagine how broken the loyal follower of God when they find out about this. The almighty God is dead, who even going to think such thing will happen?

"Where is Madara now?" Ise asked

"Oh, about that. He went off somewhere to interrogate someone..." Raynare said and Ise blinked

"What happen?"

"When we take Asia, apparently Madara-sama sense someone following the girl. He immediately capture the culprit and find out it was Devil." Raynare explained "I don't know, his name is Diodora or something like that. After Madara-sama put him under sleep he went and hide that Devil. After that he tell the truth and everything to Asia before went and interrogate the Devil."

Ise who hearing that can't help but let out shudder. Oh yeah, Madara is utterly and very magnificent in interrogating someone. Whatever happen to person he capture, they will spill out everything

Either it from pain or got their soul removed, unfortunately for the victim Madara prefer the first one

'I pray to whatever Deity, Demon God and Deceased Satan may Madara have mercy on that poor Devil.' Ise thought as he sent silent pray for the person that currently captured by Madara

[I'm very tempted to said "Amen" but I know it wouldn't do anything. Not even God can save that poor Devil soul the moment Madara got his hand on him...] Ddraig commented with solemn tone as he knew well what kind of person Madara is

"I agree my friend, I agree...' Ise responded with nod and give mental pat to his partner "And the nun... where is she now?" Ise asked after moment of silence

"In her room, the one near mine." Raynare answered and Ise grunted before began to walk away "Wait, Hyoudou-sama-"

"Ise..." Ise cut her again "You may call me by my name. Using Hyoudou remind me of my... Deceased parent and family so please use Ise." He said

"H-Hai! Ise-sama, I-I suggest to leave her alone. I already talk with her and I think she got the point. Madara-sama also give her talk but..."

At Raynare grimace look Ise also can't help but put blanched expression. Madara is not a person who give sympathy and become father figure with ease, even for him Ise only see Madara as strict mentor. True there bond between them but he wouldn't said Madara is his father figure

"I get it... Knowing him, he will said "I know it was sad and I can understand that, however you must know this World not just black and white. Not all bad deed will result good and it also worked the opposite"." Ise quoted Madara as his face comically morphed to Madara, one his bang cover his eye and Raynare have to put her hand to her mouth while holding laugh

"I-It similar. But I think he will put face like this..." Raynare then use her magic and her hair become spiky with one bang frame over her left eye "Boy, stop doing stupid thing and get back to jour objection." She stated in Madara-like tone make Ise snickered

"Raynare, where that Boy?" Ise take Madara tone again while speaking

"I don't know Boy, why don't you ask Jeanne?" Raynare responded while also mimicking Madara

"Hn! Ask her for me, I have something to do other than contact that girl."

"Oh? And what is that? Something more important than my order?"

"I have my own business. Now stop questioning me Boy!"

"Why should I?! You not Madara! You just pretender!"

"And the real Madara will get mad if you two keep playing like bunch of fools."

Raynare and Ise let out squeak while jumping when they hear the owner of the voice they mimicked stand not far from them with stoic face and narrowed eyebrow as he staring at them, arm crossed and his face clearly said he not amused

"M-Madara-sama!" Raynare sqeuaked "This is misunderstanding!"

"Y-Yeah!" Ise stuttered "W-We mimicking another people yeah! I-Its not you! Really!"

Madara only keep staring at them and their gaze clearly told them he still not amused

"Boy, come with me. We will have little chat about being destructive and last night about you ignoring my lecture." Madara called and Ise paled "Raynare, I will talk to you too after this so don't think you escape that easy."

Needless to say, when Madara done with them they clearly learn why they fear him in first place


Meanwhile with Devils, in Gremory Estate at Kuou City

"This is not good..." Rias muttered with stress on her tone

Thing not go according to her plan

Someone or something just attacking the Church along wil the fallen angel. When they arrive they didn't able to get anything other than the attack caused by flame, a very, very hot one she suggest

With the fallen angel destroyed now, her hope to get Ise to her peerage down to 50%! Since Ise won't be killed she couldn't 'save' him and turn him to Devil! There very big chance Ise will refuse to joing her on his own will! No one want to sold their soul to Devil!

Whilte true they changed to better but the image of Devil is still bad, very bad in fact. Look Kiyomi Abe, she is proof of that! She knew the Devil is not as harsh as in past but she still didn't wish to join!

And what chance Ise who don't know anything will join her?! The moment he heard Devil, she already can imagine the boy will freak out

She cursed whoever attack the Church! She really is! She was thinking it could be Ise, however it turned down when she find out the boy was in school in whole time

True it could be familiar but Koneko sense the aura indeed belong to Ise and it was the real one so Ise clearly out of picture

So who the one that did it?

It was impossible for Devils to have been done it. This is her and Sona territory, they will aware if another Devil come and do such thing, wiping out the entire Fallen Angel in this city is clearly dangerous act. Attacking someone in her area can mean provoke the whole Fallen Angel and there will be War!

Then what about Exorcists? No, no matter how much they hate the Fallen, they would never go so far by destroying the whole church. In their belief, church still house of God even if it abandoned one!

Another Fallen Angel perhaps? Or conflict within? Sure they can sense trail of large amount of light magic in that place before. One of them perhaps rebel to each other and caused that explosion

Maybe... That probably the most possible scenario that could happen

Or... There someone outside of the Three Factions...

She let out sigh while rubbing her temple. As much she love to investigate this more but she have bigger problem now, which include about certain phoenix devil

She don't know what to do anymore now...

"Tomorrow... Tomorrow I will approach him directly.." Rias murmured "This is the only chance... If I can't... Then I'm doomed..."


Meanwhile in unknown location, Akatsuki HQ

Ryōken whistled as he sit in living room while eating his snack. He just got home last night along with the little Chibi Queen, the Chibi Queen immediately went to her room and take her bath while he go and sleep

While in Japan is night, now in their place is morning so he just wake up and having morning snack

"Cahir-kun? Is that you?"

Ryōken, or the revealed person who named Cahir (A/N : Cahir meaning "Warrior" in Irish). Turned to see a woman around 20. She have pale milky skin, dark purple eyes, long blonde hair that braid down reach below her knee and wearing long blue PJ pants with jacket

"Yo, Jeanne! Morning!" Cahir greeted to the holder spirit of Holy Virgin Maiden

"Morning Cahir-kun, I don't know you already back from your mission." Jeanne greeted back

"Well, I just finished last night. I was plan to take camp and sleep outside but that little Queen persist to go back too fast." Cahir grumbled and Jeanne giggled a bit as she went to kitchen and made some tea

"Don't be like that, Semiramis-chan not that bad." Jeanne said

"Said that when she try to curse you to her void dimension..." Cahir grumbled and Jeanne smiled in slight amusement

"You should know Cahir-kun, despite Semiramis-chan bad attitude, she very loyal to person she think as friend. She also have her moment..." Jeanne said as she defended the descendant of Queen of Babylonian

Cahir didn't reply and only eat his snack while keep mumbling under his breath about tsundere Chibi and spoiled brat

"Do you want some drink Cahir-kun?" Jeanne offered

"Well... I guess you can give me milk tea..." Cahir answered and Jeanne nodded as she began her work "Where Mordred?"

"She still sleeping, you know she not early person right?" Jeanne smiled as she walk to Cahir and give him his drink which the Irish man gladly take it

"Hmm... So, anyone else return other than us?" Cahir asked

"Well... There Lingqi-chan and Zhao-kun, when we arrive few days ago they just want to leave. Madara-sama send them to investigate one of Khaos Brigade base. Something about Hero Faction..." Jeanne answered and Cahir make whistle

"Damn! Why the hell those two always get exciting mission?!" Cahir complained as he also wish to get exiciting mission, the last one is good. But it just a peon and cannon fodder

"It because they are true warrior,unlike you Dog."

Cahir mood getting darker as he hear familiar voice while Jeanne beamed and turned to see Semiramis wearing black dress with her umbrella come down from upstairs

"Semiramis-chan!" Jeanne greeted

"Morning to you too, Holy Maiden." Semiramis greeted back with nod "And dog, you not greet your Queen?" She asked

"Why the hell I should greet you?! And stop calling me Dog you brat!"

THWACK!

"Such rude manner! Hmph! As expected from Dog, you have to learn more from Holy Maiden over here. She truly know her manner.." Semiramis chided and Jeanne giggled, amused at the duo antic

"I will make tea for you Semiramis-chan." She said as she parted to kitchen and Semiramis merely nodded

"Where that brute of Pendragon?" Semiramis asked

"Still sleeping." Cahir answered with shrug "You wake early, that was rare."

"A Queen can awake whenever she want!" Semiramis responded with her usual arrogant manner "I just wish to watch some movie that I follow until now, it clearly entertaining." She stated as she take remote of TV and turn the TV on

"And what is it? Dora the Explorer?" Cahir asked and as if responding, the moment Semiramis turn on the TV. Dora the Explorer immediately come out first, he can't help but snickered seeing this "Wow, look at that. The Gods must be answering your prayer!"

THWACK!

"Ouch! Damnit! Chibi!"

THWACK!

"Gugh!"

"Shut up Dog! This is not the thing I wish to watch!" Semiramis said with slight growl as she pressing the button on remote and look for the cchannel

At that time Jeanne finally finish with her drink as she appear from the kitchen carrying tea for the little Queen. The girl give grunt of acknowledge before take sip of it while Jeanne pull out her cell phone when notice there some message come

"Oh my. Looks like I will be needed in Japan.." Jeanne muttered while reading the message and that caught Cahir and Semiramis attention

"Japan? What's wrong in there?" Cahir asked

"I don't know, Madara-sama told me to come to Kuou Town. He said my presence needed to comfort some girl who apparently also is exile from Church." She said bitterly and Semiramis cute and beauty face marked with scowl

"Those hypocrite again? Let me guess. This exiled woman did something that Church can't control right?" Semiramis concluded and seeing Jeanne look she snorted "Hmph! Typical of those mongrels, they are nothing but liar and bunch of fool. I should erase their existence from my garden in begin with." She stated with crossed arm

Jeanne didn't bother to reply, butt here bitterness on her eyes and she keep reading the message before blush adorn her face

"I-Ise-kun w-will be there too!" She almost squeaked and again that caught the Irish spearman and chibi Queen attention

"Hyoudou in there?! Isn't he on long term mission?" Cahir asked

"Y-Yeah. Madara-sama said he went undercover as student.."

At that, Cahir immediately burst into laugh while Semiramis face adorned by smirk of amusement

"I see, poor my little dragon. Madara really love to torture him..." Semiramis chuckled. "So when you going?"

"I-I guess I-I will go tomorrow..." Jeanne stammered a bit

"Aww, someone want to see her crush again." Cahir teased while make wolf whistle prompted blush on Jeanne face brightened

"Cahir-kun!" Jeanne whined and Cahir burst into another laugh

Deciding to save the girl from further embarrassment, Semiramis speak "Does his partner also go with him?"

At mention of Ise partner, Jeanne blush gone and for moment there strange emotion on her face before it replaced by her normal calm face

"No, Ise-kun is alone. Her partner meanwhile is on another long term mission." Jeanne said with slight smugness on her tone

"Ah good for you then Holy Maiden. This will be opportunity for you to get his attention." Semiramis smirked and Jeanne blush back to live "And you won't be alone, for I, Semiramis, Queen of the World shall go with you!" She declared

"E-Eh?!" Jeanne blurted in shock "B-But Madara-sama-"

"I shall deal with that man! Do not worry, he will approve my presence. Now let's go packing our stuff Holy Maiden, its time to go."

"Good!" Cahir added "I also going to go! I want to-"

"No Dog! You stay here with that Pendragon Brute, only I, and Holy Maiden shall go to my pet place." Semiramis interrupted

"But I want to meet Hyoudou too!" Cahir lamented "Why the hell I have to stay in here?!"

"Umm, Cahir-kun. You know Madara-sama won't like it if it too crowd right? Beside, I think you can have little spar with Mordred in here." Jeanne pointed

"Then tell this brat to -THWACK!- stay here! I will be the one who go!" Cahir said with slight pout, ignoring the lump on his head

Hearing that statement Jeanne and Semiramis stare at the descendant of Cú Chulainn like he had grown second head. And the spearman finally realize that he won't able to win this argument seeing Semiramis attitude

"Oh fine!" Cahir grumbled as his shoulder slumped prompting Semiramis to look smug until "Hey, you really want to watch Dora aren't you?" He pointed to the TV that have Dora program while grinning to the chibi Queen

THWACK!

Needless to say, he get another lump on his head
