Before we begin I just want to clear up something, I changed the title of this story to what it is now because I felt people may have been confused by what the initial's meant. DxD in High School DxD actually has a meaning and I thought people may have been befuddled so I decided to clear it up.

DxD is a term used for Great Red and by extension Issei in canon and it literally means Dragon of Dragons. If anyone was lost on that then hopefully this clears it up.

Also this chapter was getting pretty big and I decided to split it up into two parts. The next part is already nearly done so until then enjoy part 1!

Now Enjoy!


The True Dragon of Dragons

Chapter 2: Akeno, Tournament, Danger Part 1

Heaven, unlike Hell or as its also known as the Underworld, was what many mortals would picture it to be. A Kingdom built upon the clouds making it seem as if it were hovering above the earth, ever watching and always vigilant of all mankind when in fact it was like the Underworld crossing the dimensional gap and to the earth. It could only be entered by the iconic white stairway which reached the golden gates for those that had died were allowed passage through Heaven's gates. But for the forces of Heaven they were allowed free passage if Heaven's very own barrier recognized them as one of its own children.

Heaven itself was beyond the golden gates, a vast floating Kingdom that defied the realms of logic for it was built upon a sea of clouds that stretched for miles on end. The Heavenly Kingdom was built however with a uniqueness since it housed the souls of billions. Beyond the gates was another stairway which was the purest of gold and it just reached further up into the golden and white sky of Heaven which reached all the way to the center of the Kingdom.

On both sides of the massive stairway was what appeared to be a number of countless floating metropolis's that were built with a mixed western and eastern architecture. Their was countless of them each with their own different design and they spanned far and wide across the divine domain while all of them were connected by pearl white bridges. It was impossible to count how many of them were due to just how vast it was and while compared to the Underworld which mostly landmass. Heaven was built upon just an ocean of clouds the polar opposite of their enemy realm.

Then came the center of Heaven, the centerpiece that held the realm together, at the end of the long stairway which reached higher into the sky was an even greater metropolis. It was far bigger and more widespread for it was a giant Kingdom of gold and white with a great number of angel humanoids walking around and hovering above the buildings. Some wielding spears and lances of pure golden light while others held a number of swords glowing with golden divine radiance. These were the angelic forces of Heaven, charged with safeguarding the realm of Heaven and its denizens.

And among the Kingdom stood a giant Divine Spire which seemed to pierce the very sky of Heaven itself making the giant structure to be bathed in holy light. This was where the most holy of locations was placed in Heaven, this was the place the Biblical God himself once resided. Atop this spire was the Golden Throne itself. However with the the Biblical God dead, a well kept secret from the souls in heaven and those of the three factions, the Golden Throne was now occupied by the second best person to fill Gods role.

And that was Michael the only Archangel, Gods first creation, who was the leader of the Angels and the remaining Seraph. And with the holy father long gone he was the now acting 'God' of the Christian Mythology. Michael had the appearance of a handsome-looking man with blonde hair and green eyes and he was dressed in ornamental clothing befitting his position. Currently Michael's normally peaceful expression was marred with a look of deep contemplation as another angel standing his side listened in on the report being given out.

This angel was infact Michael's sister, Gabriel, another of the Seraph. She was extremely beautiful with long curly blonde hair and deep blue eyes which held a level of politeness that would make even the most cruelest of creatures beg for forgiveness for their sins. An air of humbleness came off her in waves that not even some of the greatest of angels could give off. Currently Gabriel was tilting her head in curiosity as the debriefing went on.

''So from both of your reports you had indeed sensed the presence of the missing Holy Sword, Ascalon, within the mortal boy Hyoudou Issei, is this correct?'' Michael questioned two of his angel brethren who nodded their heads confirming his words.

''Yes, Michael-sama, Hyoudou Issei the one we were charged to watch over has shown to be holding the Ascalon within him. We don't know what the child did to bring it out, but we both felt that familiar divine energy come from him. There is no mistaking it that Ascalon resides within the mortal at this very moment.'' said the angel which made Michael close his eyes while letting out a sigh. ''I see...''

The female angel of the duo then decided to speak up, ''If I may, what should we do with this information, Michael-sama?''

Michael merely smiled at the two though it seemed tired in a way before waving his hand. ''Do not worry, you two have done an excellent job. I'll think on what to do about this so for now you two just go and rest.'' while conflicted the two stood straight and bowed their head. ''H-hai Michael-sama!'' and with a flash of light the two vanished from the spire leaving behind the two, one in contemplation and the other in slight curiosity.

''...To think that Ascalon would finally choose itself a new wielder after so long. It's been two millenia since Ascalon was last wielded by Saint George and since his death its never left the realm of Heaven. The sword never let anyone wield it not even the finest of Heaven's forces, but instead it chooses a human boy with no heroic heritage or Christian ancestry to speak of.'' Michael said this while Gabriel thought about it herself.

Ascalon never left the realm of Heaven after its original wielder passed away and many angels had tried to see if they were worthy of wielding the Holy Sword yet none were successful. It was one of the four holy swords created by God and it while it was considered not as powerful as its brethren like Excalibur or Durandal it was still no less unique in its existence.

For it was the only holy sword to have slain a Dragon which were considered Gods in their own right.

''But I think that makes it even more interesting, out of everyone it chose the soul of a newborn mortal who holds no connections to the Christian mythology. That must undoubtedly make this Hyoudou Issei an interesting person even if he is a child, if the Dragon Slayer sword, Ascalon, chose him over the best and faithful of our forces. Hm...very interesting.'' the beautiful woman said with a smile forming on her face. Michael seemed to agree as he nodded at her words.

''True and from other reports about the boy it's shown that he is a rather unique human then the rest because every human has at least some form of network of energy running through them. However his has shown to be nonexistent with it barely running at the required state to keep him alive and active. Hyoudou Issei barely has enough energy to keep him alive and yet Ascalon chose him. And that's not even adding in the fact of what Sacred Gear he possesses.'' he said with a small frown while Gabriel's smile if anything grew at that.

''Oh yes that's right...it would seem he also possesses one of the 13 Longinus Sacred Gears, the Boosted Gear or the Red Dragon Emperor's Gauntlet. Hard to believe that Sacred gear has appeared in the world again, and in such an intriguing person as this, Hyoudou Issei.'' she said while Michael eyed her for a moment before agreeing with her.

Yes, he'd first found out about that upon the very first report he got from his angels that were watching over the boy. The Legendary Sacred Gear was sensed within him the moment he was born which was an ill omen itself since the history of that gear along with the other was not a good one.

Still the boy interested him greatly for such an existence like this hadn't been recorded in history. Where such a contradictory soul wielded both the Boosted Gear which held the soul of the Heavenly Welsh Dragon, Ddraig and the Dragon Slayer sword, Ascalon in one body. It was just such a paradox of two opposing elements in one soul. It made Michael feel a small shiver go down his back at what would happen if the boy actually mastered the powers of his Sacred gear and the power of Ascalon.

The future seemed an interesting one...

''Michael, I request permission to see this, Hyoudou Issei, for myself.'' Gabriel's sudden request made him blink in mild surprise before he looked to his sister with that same amount of surprise and a bit of curiosity. Gabriel rarely ever left Heaven unless it was for official business that needed someone from Heaven's higher echelon and when he was busy with maintaining God's system she was there as his representative. Besides that she was usually called upon for missions that required her abilities and leadership. Sides that she never left Heaven and watched over it and made sure that it was kept stable and her assistance with the matter had proven most helpful since their Holy father died.

For her to want to go showed Michael that Gabriel must be very interested in this soul to go to earth herself. Still as he pondered on it, it did present itself as a opportunity to learn more about this perplexing mortal. Looking to his sister he didn't see much harm in and spoke, ''That sounds like a good idea, it would be good too learn more about this new generations, Sekiryuutei. Plus since he's still young he must not have come into contact with Ddraig so if you do meet him the dragon won't alert him of who you are either. Yes, go on ahead you have a weeks time to gather what you can about him, alright?'' he said making Gabriel nod, accepting his conditions with ease.

''Got it, I'll gather what I can report what I find out.'' she said this, but inwardly the woman was bubbling with excitement to finally meet the boy. It wasn't known to Michael, but since she first heard about Hyoudou Issei being born at the exact same time Ascalon disappeared had made her suspicious of the fact the sword had chosen him. Not only that, but the fact he was found out to be holding the Boosted Gear within him had peaked her interest in him higher then she would admit.

He was a paradox, a contradictory to all of logic. He wielded the power of a Dragon and the Holy Sword that could kill Dragons. One Holy and the other Draconic in essence, it was just mind boggling and it had grabbed her attention the instant she put it together.

So yes, the Strongest and most Beautiful Woman in heaven was excited to meet this boy that had grabbed her and Michael's attention.

''Well then I'm off!'' and with humble smile she vanished a flash of gold while Michael looked at where his sister left before sighing. Then he sweat dropped as he looked to the other side and saw the ever grow stacks of paperwork that never seemed to end.

''….Well time to get back to work I guess...'' and with that Michael continued to torture himself over the countless papers and documents detailing all the happenings of his forces, and of Heaven's stability.

Earth-Hyoudou Residence

''Issei are you sure you're okay son?'' Mrs. Hyoudou asked in concern over her son who was silently eating breakfast with them. Today was a special day for her son since he had no school and his dojo was holding a tournament for the Juniors to see who will reach the next belt grade. Which was why she made a big breakfast, but yesterday had been a hard day for everyone especially for her son. Since it was the day his childhood friend Irina Shidou and her parents had left to move to England due to needing a place for their daughter to grow with a more Christian outlook or that's what she was told.

She knew it hit her son hard because the two had been so close, inseparable really. But she and her husband were surprised when he just looked up at them and smiled the tiniest bit.

''It's fine kaa-san, we promised one another that we would definitely see each other again!'' he said with a grin which made her laugh a little. The innocence of children were such a beautiful thing and though she suspected it would be unlikely they would meet it was good the two promised such a thing. She smiled being happy to see her son was still in high spirits after that and so she continued eating.

Issei on the other hand dug into his breakfast which consisted of a pot of steamed rice, another pot of miso soup, grilled fish, dried seaweed, soy sauce. However due to his abnormal appetite he was eating the equivalent servings to feed 5 people alone. Currently he was digging in and again his parents couldn't help, but watch their son eat like he did. It was if he were an animal or starved man with a bottomless pit for a stomach. Gorging down bowl after bowl of rice and miso soup, his chopsticks moving faster then that could see picking up fish, seaweed, rice, more fish, a loaf of bread.

It was a disgusting scene, but they couldn't help but be awed by it all the same...

{I am seriously starting to wonder who's the real dragon, me or you...} Ddraig said with a massive sweat drop as Issei gorged down another bowl of rice in 2 seconds flat.

'….Shut up, I can't help the fact I've got the stomach of a black hole!' Issei shot back at his nakama of a dragon who snorted.

{Still, I am surprised about how you and Irina parted off who knew she had it in her to do something so bold as to kiss you? Kids these days...} the dragon jokingly said making Issei mentally blush a bit but he conjured a mental par of chopsticks and snapped at the dragon's tongue making it grunt. {Ow...}

'Correction, she kissed me on the cheek nothing more. We hugged, she cried like a baby I did some water works and she kissed me like I did her the day before yesterday.' he said making Ddraig grumble who retracted his sore tongue. Still the equivalent of a smirk made its way onto his face.

{Well wouldn't this be considered cheating since wasn't Rias your girlfriend? Or are you becoming a playboy earlier then before?} he suggested making Issei sigh. Yes, Rias was his girlfriend and the woman he loved in his first life, but now that he had this second chance Rias didn't even know who he was and thus...

'She doesn't know me so therefore I'm in the clear and besides I'll always love Rias. The Rias I knew who may have been selfish to some degree was still the first woman I wanted to marry and have children with, I loved her dearly and that won't change. But I'm thinking there's more important matters to deal with, don't you think? Like the Khaos Brigade for example?' he said while taking a bite of grilled fish.

{Humph, true but you won't be able to do shit until you either get near death or commit suicide to break the seal and I know the second option isn't going to happen. Unless of course you're secretly suicidal...are you my dear host?} his tone went dead serious at that which caused Issei to nearly choke of his food. 'Like hell I am you overgrown lizard!' he yelled while the dragon started to laugh hysterically at his frustrated host.

''So son are you excited about today's tournament then? I hear it's going to be a big event.'' his father said causing Issei to break discussion with Ddraig to respond to his father. ''You bet, the first three that do well will go up a belt and the first place winner will even get some prize money.'' he said though it wasn't much it was still something. The Tournament itself was being held by his dojo and it was being used to test his class between the ages of 5 to 10 which was pitting them against one another. But it was an event that was a Rite of Passage for juniors so it was being held at a Miko Shrine where it would get the traditional Miko Kagura dance and blessing before it began.

While it sounded all fine and dandy he was in it for the sport he wanted to see how far he could progress as a human and to see if his training had been worth it. This would also be his real fight besides the school fights he got into where he was allowed to hit people. The thought of fighting made his blood pump and made him nearly jump from his seat in excitement.

{Besides that all the training you've been doing will accumulate once the seal breaks making all the hard work you've done progress you further in wielder the Boosted Gear.} Ddraig said which Issei agreed with Like Rias once told him, physical fitness was an important aspect as a devil and as a supernatural being altogether. Her cousin, Sairaorg Bael was a prime example of that.

The phantom pain of his punches still made him flinch...

'But that won't be enough, I need to get stronger and stronger, strong enough to surpass everyone, strong enough to beat Cao Cao...I want to be so strong that no one precious to me will be hurt again.' he thought as Ddraig listened to him, but inwardly he was thinking about his host and a small spark of worry rose up in the dragon.

[I just wonder how far you're willing to go to get that kind of power...]

Looking at the time Mrs. Hyoudou spoke up, ''Ah it's about time to leave Issei go get your uniform while I clean up.'' she said making him perk up before nodded. Jumping off the chair he ran upstairs, seeing him gone she looked to her husband who gulped at her look.''Honey go and get the camera I will not be missing this for a moment.'' a bit frightened at the look he quickly got up and did as asked which made her smile. It may have been about fighting, but it was her son that was fighting so she was going to support him all the way.

Miko Shrine

….

….

'….Holy crap, Ddraig...am I reading this correctly?' Issei thought to himself in shock as he read the plaque just outside the shrine. It detailed who this shrine belonged to and the name made him nearly want to jump and shout in joy. His partner rumbled within his mind, but seemed to confirm it for himself.

{Huh...well I'll be damned seems your sadist of a Miko was closer then you thought she was...} the dragon said making Issei nod as he read what the plaque said.

Himejima Shrine

''T-that means Akeno is here...right?'' Issei muttered to himself as his parents caught up to him. If this was indeed the same shrine Akeno had grew up in then that meant she might still be here which meant her mother wasn't dead yet. The thought of maybe helping her save her mother quickly began to form only for his parents to wake him from his thoughts.

''You nervous, son?'' his father said patting him on the head pulling Issei from his thoughts. Looking up at his father the boy quickly shook his head before putting on a determined expression, ''No way! I'm pumped!'' he as his mind quickly went back to the tournament at hand. But dealing with the possibility of helping Akeno this time around was still in the depths of his mind.

''Haha! I see I see'' his father just laughed while his mother seemed a bit surprised at the amount of people coming to the Shrine.

''There's a lot of people here, did the tournament grab local news or something?'' she said making her husband shrug. ''Who knows hun, the dojo Issei is learning from is quite renowned so those interested in seeing new talent may have wanted to come see it for themselves. Nevertheless, let's hurry up and get to the top so we can meet with his sensei.'' she nodded and thus the family of three quickly made way to the top of the stairway.

And what greeted them was quite the eye opener since this was Issei's first tournament even if it was a junior one it was still impressive to see. The shrine looked similar to the one Akeno lived in in his first life, but the temple was much bigger and seemed to be big enough to house residents. Looking around Issei saw that there were many parents talking with their children while the stage for the tournament was being finished in its setup. It was being put in the middle of the Shrine grounds which had a clearing for this occasion.

The stage itself was basically a square dirt mound, but it was big enough to move around it but it was obvious if you were out of the square you lost the match. It was one of the basic rules of fighting in a arena, but this was a tournament that showed what you learned and would allow you to show the fruits of your labor.

But with all the people here it kind of reminded him of the Rating game he had with Rias against her cousin, Sairaorg Bael and his peerage.

''Ah I see your prepared Issei.'' the familiar voice of his sensei garnered the attention of himself and his parents and they turned to see a man coming over toward them. His sensei was in his late thirties with a muscular build and currently he wore what he usually wore while not teaching. His attire consisted of a black yukata with a navy blue sash tied around his waist while on his feet were a pair of sandals. He had black with gray streaked hair and a goatee to match while he had normal black eyes.

''Ah y-yeah kinda...'' the boy scratched the back of his head as other parents and kids near him heard the conversation and looked his way. He was wearing what all the other kids were which was a white Keikogi shirt and white hakama pants. Tied around his waist was his orange belt which he earned after everyday of practice of going after school or on his off days. In addition he had red wristbands on and on his feet just a pair of sandals which he could slip easy for the battles would require no footwear when they began.

But it was his abnormal physique that caught many peoples attention for a 6 year old he had on some definite muscle on his arms and his shoulders were broad. His face was showing less baby fat unlike his peers and his forearms were pretty thick compared to the other kids. This was again something Issei couldn't help, but think his alien heritage on. He hadn't even unlocked it yet, but it was showing changes on him.

Scratching the back of his head Issei chuckled nervously, ''Hehe yeah so how you doing Hozu-sensei?'' the older man just shook his head and pat the boy on the head. ''Good considering I'll be watching you, my students, show me the results of your training. But I'm here to take you and your classmates to the shrine so you may receive a early blessing by the Miko of the Shrine before the tournament begins.'' he said earning a surprised look from him, but for a whole other reason.

''Oh okay!'' agreeing he went to follow his sensei as he gathered the rest of the students as his parents waved him off, ''We'll be watching you son, good luck!'' hearing his mothers words he gave a grin and a thumbs up before following after Hozu.

''Aah~ Hard to believe he's already 6 and already in a Martial Arts Tournament they really do grow up so fast.'' Issei's father said while his mother nodded in agreement, while she didn't like the fact he was interested in fighting as a sport it was still a sport which he loved so it would be wrong to deny him that.

''Uhm excuse me?'' the voice of a woman broke them of their thoughts and they turned to see an extremely gorgeous woman with curly blond hair and radiant blue eyes standing near them. The sheer appearance of the woman struck the two on the spot just by how beautiful she was more so Issei's father whom his wife saw and smacked him over the head.

She had a voluptuous figure and was dressed in casual clothing consisting of a yellow kimono that didn't do much to hide her perfect figure while she had a gold obi around her waist. Her long curly blonde hair fell down her back as if it were made of the softest silk. Her supple lips spread into a innocent smile as she addressed the Hyoudou's. ''Yes?'' Issei's mother replied making the woman smile before bowing her head, ''Hello, my name is Gabriella I'm with the Kyoka Hospital and am here to oversee anyone that gets injured. But I was just curious was that boy just now your son?'' she asked making the two nod.

''Indeed, it's his first tournament so he's been training very hard for this.'' his mother replied while Gabriella's smile grew at that before looking in the direction Issei went off too. ''Clearly, his eyes spoke volumes at how excited he was.'' she said causing the two to raise an eyebrow. But they just stood there as the parents all gathered to in anticipation.

They missed the woman's eyes glaze over as she went into thought, 'As I thought, by being closer to him I was able to sense their was more to Hyoudou-san than meets the eye. I definitely felt Ddraig andd Ascalon within him, but...I sense something else. It's so small, but its there...what is it though?'

Temple-Shrine Room

''Mmm~ I'm getting nervous.'' mumbled one of the contestants of the tournament it was a child around the same age as Issei. The class was situated inside the Shrine room where they were told to sit so the miko could offer her blessings onto them before the tournament began. The class was of a mixed number of ages from 5 to 10 with a total number of 16 kids. Hozu-sensei was sitting behind them watching the proceedings with a smile.

Among the students Issei was sitting as perfectly still as he could be, but he was jumpy for at any moment he will possibly see Akeno again! Sure it may not be his Akeno, but the fact would remain that she was here. And if she was here then that mean her mother was still alive and the attack on her hadn't begun yet. To be completely honest he was mixed about seeing Akeno as a child because he pictured her as the 'Onee-sama' of Rias's peerage, the Sadist Queen and the troubled woman who been scarred emotionally by the despair of losing her mother.

Suddenly the door to their left slid open jarring Issei from his thoughts as the voice of a woman spoke up, ''Ah hello children! I see many of you are eagerly wanting to start?'' Issei dared to look up at that moment only to go slack jawed when he saw the woman. There was no way he could deny it when he laid eyes upon the woman who go to the front of his class. The woman looked exactly like the Akeno he knew, long black straight black hair and twinkling purple orbs. She walked with grace and elegance that only that of a well renowned miko could. She was dressed in the traditional miko dress and it fit the woman very well.

Then the woman bowed to him and his class with a soft smile as she spoke, ''Hello children and to you as well Hozu-sensei, my name is Himejima Shuri and I welcome you all my humble Shrine. I shall be performing the blessings and kagura for today, so take care of me.'' bowing her head he, his class and Hozu-sensei followed her example.

''Thank you. Miko-san!'' the class echoed in response, but then the woman reached out her hand to the direction she came from and spoke again, her smile growing ever more pleasant. ''Thank, now allow me to introduce my daughter, she will be helping me with this ceremony. Come on out now Akeno-chan.''

Bum-bump!

Issei felt his heart race once he heard that name be spoken and he dared to look to where he heard the soft patter of footsteps. Like many of his classmates he turned to see a small girl meekly slide open the screen door and as soon as he saw her Issei had a near mental fritz.

'….Too...cute!' Issei mentally grunted while Ddraig just laughed at his hosts expression. On the outside his cheeks flushed just a tad as he saw Akeno Himejima step out in the same style of miko clothing as her mother, only for her size. Her long black hair fell down without the signature ponytail Issei was used too. Her violet eyes were bright with innocence and a tad bit of nervousness as she stepped out toward her mother while she held a basket of sakura blossoms.

''Go on and introduce yourself dear.'' her mother spoke comfortingly and looking up at her for a moment she nodded before looking to his classmates. Putting up a courageous expression and spoke up with a bow, ''H-Hello, I am Akeno Himejima please treat me well!''

''Hello Akeno!'' the class responded in kind and some even whispered at how cute the girl was, but Issei mentally guffawed. They saw that now, but none of them knew the sadistic sadist that was lying deep underneath that innocent exterior. If they knew he knew without a doubt half these kids would shit themselves and the other half would runaway crying.

Shuri's smile grew before addressing the class, ''Very good now with Hozu-san's permission we shall begin the blessing and afterwards we can begin the Tournament, so are we ready?'' she asked Hozu who nodded his head in response. ''We're all set outside Himejima-san.''

''Very good then, Akeno dear if you will?'' Akeno nodded and began walking around while Shuri turned around and kneeled down lighting two incense candles and began praying a traditional chant used to give good luck to all those that wished. As she did Issei watched as Akeno threw handfuls of sakura blossoms over his class, but as soon as she got closer to him.

He looked her dead in the eye catching eye contact with her and for the sliver of a moment Issei saw his Akeno deep in those violet eyes. Then he smiled at her surprised look before deciding to get one on Akeno after all the teasing she did to him in his first life. ''Thank you for the blessings, Miko-chan.''

Her cheeks flushed scarlet and she nodded his way before quickly moving on as Issei did a mental victory fist pump at finally getting one over Akeno! It didn't matter to him that this Akeno had yet to tease him it was the fact his Akeno had done it countless times that a little payback was needed!

{But who's to say she won't remember that and pay you back twice or three-fold?} Ddraig snickered causing Issei's brief time of victory to hit rock bottom as a horrified expression came over him.

'...Ah crap!'

Before he knew it the blessings were finished and Shuri and Akeno stood side by side as Hozu stood infront of them now and began addressing them. ''Okay kids listen up, we will begin the Tournament after Himejima-san has finished the opening kagura. So in preparation remember all your training, keep your reflexes sharp and wits even sharper, understand?'' he grinned as his class roared in response ''Hai sensei!''

''Good! Now follow me so we can get to our seats and let Himejima-san prepare.'' the class nodded and soon followed Hozu-sensei out of the shrine room. But as they were leaving Issei glanced over his shoulder to see Akeno was staring at his back. So he just grinned at catching her and it was all the better when he saw her embarrassed flush. Giving a small wave he saw her do the same just before he left with the rest of his class.

But unfortunately her mother, Shuri, caught that little interaction and she smiled when she saw her daughter's expression. ''Was that a friend of yours Akeno? He certainly seemed like a nice young man.'' she said only for Akeno to shake her head. Putting a finger to her lips the young girl titled her head as she thought about it.

''No I don't kaa-san...''

Shuri looked at her daughter for a moment before nodding her head, ''Okay then, now while I get ready, why don't you go find your father and watch the proceedings while I finish up the Kagura?'' she said while grabbing hold the ornamental mask she used for these occasions. Akeno nodded happily before running to go find her father as Shuri began putting on the mask.

Outskirts of Gio

On the outskirts of the town of Gio, deep within the woods and off the main roads a single red rune circle appeared and glowed before particles of red energy began float upwards. The energy then began to combine into a humanoid shape which soon began to gain characteristics. The circle glowed bright red before the humanoid shape finally became complete, the figure stepped out of the circle causing it to vanish without a trace.

The figure was clearly male and he strolled through the woods with only the light of the sun lighting his features through the branches of trees. It was only when he came out of the woods did it reveal the man in all his glory. He appeared to be a handsome young man in his early twenties with shoulder length crimson red hair and blue-green eyes. He had a healthy pale complexion and stood a good height of 5'9. he was dressed in casual clothing which consisted of mainly a black sleeved shirt and a red denim jacket along with a pair of blue jeans while on he feet he just had a pair of black tennis shoes.

He looked ordinary enough, but this man was by no means normal...

For this was the man himself, Sirzechs Lucifer, or simply known as the Crimson Satan. One of the four current Maou of the Underworld and older brother of Rias Gremory. Sirzechs smiled humbly as he trekked his way towards Gio with his blue-green eyes twinkling with a set goal in mind.

''Ah man~ And I was just enjoying my time with little Ria-tan and kaa-san...oh well may as well get this over with.''

Thus one of the two Super Devils made his way towards the town of Gio having no idea what lay in store for him or for those in the town itself.


Phew! There's part one guys hope you enjoyed and got you excited for part two.

Part two will probably be done by tomorrow, but I ain't making no promises. Also I've named the city Issei lives in as Gio one of the few cities that are in real life near Kyoto. Since it was never established in canon I just gave it one. :/

Constructive Criticism is very much appreciated and Nice long reviews would be just Grand.

Bye!
