I don't own either Fate/Stay night or Highschool DxD
Chapter 10: Saving the Princess (Extra long chapter)
Shirou POV
Me, Issei, Kiba, and Koneko finally arrive at the church
I use my structural analysis to check on the situation
There are around 10 exorcist on the church itself, and 2 fallen angel Dohnaseek and Kalawarner
Raynare and that crazy priest (Freed) is underground with over 20 others exorcist along with them
I then tell the situation inside to the other three
"You sure have a lot of ability, it is a waste you're not part of our master peerage." Kiba said
Koneko and Issei also nod
"Leave that for now, it seems they're about to start their so called ritual so we better act fast." I said
"""Understood!""" The three answer
"For now I will act as the bait, reconsidering that Dohnaseek guy still had some grudge because I rip his wing one time he will definitely attack me and will not care about you guys. That guy have a lot of pride from what I get, even if his wing able to grow back his pride will not forgive for being defeated by me." I said
They all nod
"The rest of the group must have also aware of my existence, according to Mittelt te exorcist seems to be wary of me. When I fight those guys, you all need to go underground, and save Asia that's the plan." Shirou
"Will you be okay?" Koneko ask
"No problem, I worry more about you guys. Freed and Raynare may have been idiot, but their fighting skill something I recognised, and there is many exorcist along with them." I said
"On the other hand I will only beat 2 fallen angel, one already weakened and few exorcist." I said
"Okay! But, how will youmake an opening for us?" Issei said
"You just wait and see. You only need to focus on going to go to the underground passage when you see the chance" I said
I then walk to the entrance of the church and open the door
When Dohnaseek see my face he wear a face full of anger
"YOOOOOOUUUU BAAAASSSSTTAARRRDDD!" Dohnaseek shout loudly
He then try to charge at me, but...
"Trace On!" I said my aria
Then, several blade appear before me, they all nothing but a normal blade, but it shoul be enough
Every single of it aimed to the direction of the Exorcist and the two fallen angel.
"Fire!"
The blade then fly away and take down 3 of the exorcist
The rest hem of manage to dodge, but there is no problem this is within my expectation
My main gain is not defeating them using those blade
"Explode!"
All of the sword suddenly explode,
Each of those blade are filled with my od just like broken phantasm.
It just that that explosion really small compared to those broken phantasm that can practically destroy about half of the city if I give an extra effort
And it only taken out two more exorcist.
However, they serve their purpose!
"Now!" I shout
After that the three of them, with their full speed going to the altar
"Hei" Koneko said while delivered a punch to the altar, showing the underground passage
Kalawarnaer try to stop them but I shot Gandr at her,
Yup you hear correctly
After year of training I am now able to shot Gandr just like any other magus
This is forcing her to dodge to the side
All of them finally go through the passage now
Kiba POV
I just see something unbelievable
I see Emiya Shirou creating many blade out of thin air
It is similar my sword birth, but that's the end of it's similarity
He then shot those blade like they're bullet or something, and it even explode
He then also shoot some magical energy that give a very ominous feeling about it
I'm really glad he is an ally instead of an enemy
Now is our turn, we will do our job properly
Shirou POV
Now, that the kids have pass through the passage I better finish this quickly
Dohnaseek come charging straight me like an idiot
I then use one of my abilities I copy it from someone else.
"No Secondd Strike." I call the technique name
This is something I pick on during my day as executor
Back then, one crazy bastard of a magus try summon a servant without the Grail influence
It is a fact that even the weakest servant can't be defeated by even army or many magus
It is normal to want to summon a servant
The Magus sacrifice the life of almost a third of city population in order to summon the servant and the rest of the city to maintain it's presence,
When I arrive there it had turned into a ghost town
But, even then all he got is false servant named Li Shuwen.
Similar to Assassin that Caster summoned.
He is a servant without real noble phantasm instead he have a several techniques comparable to one
Among them Second Strike is an amazing tehnique
This technique skew his target's nervous and circulatory systems as well as Magic circuits. It disrupts the internal Magic Circuits like a tornado, in Servants case, the Master prana connection can no longer function properly, although all this is but temporary in cas the opponent survive the attack that is.
Using my structural analysis on the fake servant I manage to learn all of his technique
After many years of training it I manage to perfect it
I use this technique on Dohnaseek that charge at me
"UAAAGGHHH" Dohnaseek Scream
His body practically destroyed
All of his rib destroyed and stabbing his heart.
After that he got pushed for several meter and even the wall behind him got crushed as well
Despite already hitting the wall Dohnaseek body still flying like a bullet
He continue crush several tree around the church area
Only after his body hitting some hard rock did his body stopped moving
This time I use a technique that was meant to kill, Dohnaseek definitely died this time
The rest of the exorcist was stunned on what I just did, and so does Kalawarner
Without even given them the change to react I beat the remaining exorcist bare handed all that's left is Kalawarner
Probably out of fear she's actually trying to flee
However I summon my bow and summon my arrow (note: not noble phantasm) filled it with Od, and shoot it
The arrow pierce Kalawarner heart and she die
I finally finish here, time to help the Issei and the others
Issei POV
After passing through the stair we arrived at the underground floor
"Meeting! It's a reunion! So emotional!" Freed said
It's that white haired shitty Priest!
"Well, I never met the same Devil twice before! You know, since I'm super strong, I cut Devils into pieces when I first meet them! Once I see them, I cut them up on the spot! I then kiss the corpse and say goodbye! That's how I used to live! But since you guys ruined my style, I'm so lost! That's no good~. It's not good to interfere with my lifestyle~! That's why~! You guys piss me off! I hope you guys will die! Actually die! You trashy Deeeeeeeeeeeevils!" Freed Said
He takes out the gun and handle-only sword from before.
The blade of light appears. It will be a troublesome to get cut by that sword. That gun is also troublesome.
But it's different from before. It's 3 against 1 now.
"You guys came to rescue Asia-tan, right? Hahaha! Devil-samas are big hearted for coming to rescue a bitch like that who would even heal Devils! Well, just being entranced to a Devil should make that Sister die!" Freed said while laughing
"Shut up!" I shout
"Sacred Gear!" I shout and cal my sacred gear
A red gauntlet appears on my left arm.
Kiba draw his sword from the sheath and Koneko-chan—
Huh! I'm so shocked that my eyes are about to pop out.
GOGOGO…
Koneko-chan is lifting up the pews that are several times bigger than her.
"….Get Smashed" Koneko-chan said
Freed then move to the side and dodge the attack
SWIFT.
When I thought Kiba went ahead, he has already disappeared. He's so fast that I can't see him!
GIIN!
There are sparks between Kiba's sword and the Priest's blade of light.
They clash several time, and because they're too fast I don't know how to support Kiba
"Impressive. You are quite strong. Maybe I should go all out" Kiba said
Kiba then summon a darkness sword out of nowhere
The darkness sword that is clashing against the Priest's blade of light starts to expand and is devouring the blade of light.
"Wha, what the hell is this!?" Freed ask
He seems confused.
"—[Holy-Eraser], a darkness sword that devours light." Kiba answer
"Y-You are also a Sacred Gear possessor!?" Freed ask
"Yes!" Kiba answer
"Damn!" Freed shout, then aim his gun at Kiba
Like I let you!
"Promotion [Rook]!" I promote myself
I promote myself to Rook and charge at Freed
He then fire his gun
But, with [Rook] trait I manage to repel the bullet
Then, my left fist hit the Priest's face.
Freed finally defeated, I am so happy this is my first win!
But, the rest of the exorcist suddenly appear
"Issei-kun leave here to us, and go save Asia." Kiba said
Koneko also nod
"Thanks!" I said
I then run straight to the room in which Asia supposed to be at
I looked at the girl who is attached to the cross and shout.
"Asiaaa!" I shout
Asia noticed my voice and looks at me.
"…Ise-san?" Asia said
"Yeah! I've come to save you!" I said
I smile at her and a tear drops from her eye.
"It's a touching reunion, but it's too late. The ritual is about to finish now." Raynare said
Suddenly, Asia's body starts to glow.
"…Aaah, iyaaaaaaaaaaaa!" Asia scream in pain
When the light stops, there is a Fallen Angel emitting green coloured light from her body.
"Ufufu. Ahahahahahaha! I finally have it! The supreme power! With this, I can become a supreme Fallen Angel! With this I can payback all those who were looking down on me!" Raynare said
"YOOOOUUUUUU MOOONNNSSSSTEEEEERRRRR!" I shout
How can I not shout Asia is dead right in front of me, and it's all her this scum fault.
I materialise my Gear again
[Boost!]
It let out a voice it never said before, but I don't pay attention to it
I charge at her, but only a push from her hand I got thrown to the wall
Dammit, why am I so weak
Hey, God!? You are there right, God!? Devils and Angels exist, so you do exist as well, right, God!? You were watching, right!? You were watching all of this, right!?
Please don't take this girl away! Please! I beg you! She hasn't done anything! She just wanted a friend! I will be her friend forever! So please! I want this girl to smile forever! Hey please! God!
Did this happen because I turned into a Devil!? Did you abandon her because I'm a Devil and her friend!?
I have no power. I didn't have any power at all. If I have more power as a Devil
"Don't give up yet, Issei!" A sudden voice
I look to the voice direction it was Shirou
He then walk straight toward Asia body, and release her from the cross
"It's useless kid, nothing can save her now!" Raynare said
What are you planning to do shirou? I ask in my head
Shirou POV
When I pass through the stair I see Kiba and Koneko fighting the rogue priest
I thought it will be better to help them, but they told me to help Issei instead
I immediately go to support Issei
When I arrive to the room I see Issei charging to Raynare
I also see that Asia girl no longer breathing
Guess I need to use 'that'!
I then go through pass the fallen angel and release her from the cross
"It's useless kid, nothing can save her now!" Raynare said
I couldn't bother with her
I focus my mind to project 'that'
"Trace On!" I said
Then, Avalon appear in my hand
This is but the copy of the one in my body
However this should be enough
I then put Avalon inside of her body.
Asia start to breathe again
"She's Alive!" Hyoudou shout in surprise
"How…?" Raynare ask with the dumb face
"Issei will you mind beat this Fallen Angel yourself. I'm busy healing Asia here." I said
"In order to heal her completely we need to get back her sacred gear." I add
"Okay! Leave it to me, I beat this crow just look at me." Issei said
[Boost!]
Suddenly Issei gauntlet change it's form, it seems his sacred gear had fully awakened
However both Raynare and Issei don't seems to notice it
Issei charge once again and being pushed back, but no long after he is down he immediately get up once again
Issei you better show that you can save this girl and overcome this trial
Asia POV
Today is really fun, it's because I manage to make my first friend Issei-san
Although he is a Devil he is kinder than anyone I know
I have this warm feeling inside of me just by being near him
Despite this is going to be the day I die I have no regret
Issei-san even go all the way here to save me
This is enough I can go rest in peace now
But….
When I feel that I lost my consciousness, suddenly I felt there is light entering my body
The light is very fragile thing, but at the same time very strong
I don't know how to describe it
It as if, even if they're crushed they will immediately stand once again not knowing defeat
I then opened my eye, and I see someone sitting next to me
I can't see him clearly because my eye is blurry
But, I can tell that he is a good person, and the one that give me this light
He seems to notice that I am awake
"Have you awaken child?" He said
"…..Who…. are….you?" I ask
"All I can say I am a friend." He said
"You better rest for now Issei putting his life on the line for you, so you better rest to get your strength back." He said
I know this is weird, but at that moment for some sort of reason I can only think of one person.
"M….My Lord!" I said
After that I lost my consciousness once again
Shirou POV
She must have been really tired, to think she actually mistaken me as her Lord
I then look at Issei once again
He got pushed back again this is already the third times
[Boost!]
Raynare must be frustrated because every time Issei went down, and get up he got stronger
Issei Sacred Gear indeed has the ability to double his strength every 10 seconds, almost without limit as long as his body can take burden from the power boost.
However that is not the only thing
Issei is similar to me when I am younger
Despite being tattered
Despite being so weak
Despite knowing we can change anything
We refuse to accept that, we get up so many times to beat an opponent right in front of us
Even if we must sacrifice an arm or two
Even if we must sacrifice our life
None of it is matter as long as we can protect the people we want to protect
Issei will definitely grow strong in the future, and even might be able to surpass God himself
But now he need to surpass this trashy Angel
Right now this is his only chance to defeat Raynare
Rayanre still can't use [Twilighr Healing], and she still don't know Issei sacred gear
[Boost!]
Issei get up once again, and this time landing a solid blow at Raynnare!
Booom!
Raynare got thrown away being Issei punch, and fly straight to the wall
The wall behind her got destroyed along with her.
It seems it's finally over.
Issei POV
I did it
I beat Raynare
With this I can save Asia
"Good work you actually manage to defeat the Fallen Angel." Someone voice
I look back and see that it is Buchou
Akeno-san, Mittelt, Kiba, and Koneko are together with her
"It seems that you have been defeated by my servant, well it is your fault to underestimating Issei." Buchou said while looking at Raynare
"Dammit! How can I lost to this insect with only [Twice Critical]" Raynare said
"Tell me! Do Issei gauntlet still look like [Twice Critical] to you?" Shirou said
I suddenly hear Shirou voice, and see my gaunlet
It had changed it's form.
"His Sacred Gear is called [Boosted Gear] one of the 13 Longinus. It's power is double his strength every 10 second. Given enough time he will be able to kill God" Buchou said
"A-a-a Longinus, This insect is the host of the Longius." Raynare said
Is my Sacred Gear really that big of a deal
Well Buchou did say it can kill God, so it must be amazing
"Well it's time to die Fallen Angel, I need you to return [Twilight Healing]. To Asia now." Buchou said
"Are you crazy? You can't lay a finger on me, Azazel-sama is the one that give me my mission." Raynare said
This bitch!
"Oh! You don't hae to worry just now Serafall-sama had just contact the leader of Grigori himself." Buchou said
"Thanks to the fact we have someone from your side to support our claim. Azazel have allowed us to use force to subdue you guys." Buchou said while hugging Mittelt from behind
UUUUOOOOOHHHHH!
If I am in that position and feel Buchou breast on my back I will go crazy
I having this thought while wearing perverted face, suddenly I got elbowed by someone
"….You're the worst!" Koneko said
Koneko-chan said
"MITTELT YOU!" Raynare shout
It seems she make Mittelt scared. Mittelt expression is that one that is horrified to someone that has been abusing her
Seriously just how low this trash can get!
"Well time to die." Buchou said
Buchou then raise her magical energy, and make sphere of destruction
Based on what Aken-san said
Getting hit by a single shot won't allow you to leave any trace. The princess of the Duke who has the power of destruction. Buchou is a powerful Devil who is called a genius among the group of young Devils after all.
She is also called the "Crimson-Haired Ruin Princess"
"N-N-No, I don't wanna die" Raynare said terrified
"Ise-kun! Please save me!" Raynare said
Her voice is that of Yuuma-chan, when she was my girlfriend.
"This Devil is trying to kill me! I love you! I love you so much! That's why, let's defeat this Devil together!" Raynare said
Raynare once again acts like Yuuma-chan and begs for help to me while crying.
I was stupid for feeling even a bit sorry for you, Yuuma-chan. No, shitty Fallen Angel.
"Goodbye, my love. Buchou, I'm at my limit… Will you please…" I said
Hearing that, the Fallen Angel's expression froze.
"…Don't try to flirt with my cute servant. Blow away." Buchou said
Raynare then gone without a trace leaving only Asia Sacred Gear
Rias POV
"I must say, that I'm surprised." I said
"What did you use to in order to make her stay alive this long?" I ask
"I feel a Holy energy from her, but it doesn't cause us any harm, which mean it isn't exactly a Holy object." I said
"That's a gentleman secret, after all a man without secret will not be popular." Shirou said while making a smile
I'm shocked at his answer, but then me and Akeno can't help but smile
"Ara Ara it seems Shirou-kun is gentleman that care about his image." Akeno said while smiling
Shirou shiver from Akeno smile he must has noticed that Akeno is a sadist
"Well that's fine I guess I will not poke any further. Here [Twilight Healing] I let you be the one that will return this to her" I said
"My pleasure, Rias Gremory." Shirou said
"Rias-senpai" I said
"?" Shirou seemed confused
"You should call me that, it feels weird to be call by my full name. You always seems way too formal, you also called the member of the student council you close with their family name. You might want to start calling people by their first name, starting from me and my peerage." I said
….
"...Sigh…. I understand Rias-senpai." Shirou said
"Good!" I said
I then hand over [Twilight Healing] to him, He then return I to her body
With this Asia shall be saved
That's what I thought something weird, Asia didn't get better at all
Shirou POV
This is bad, it seems because the ritual is rushed Asia body weakened, and unable to contain [Twilight Healing] power
"Wh-What happened?" Issei ask
I then explain the situation to Issei, it seems he is shocked by this fact
"No way, then does that mean there is no way to save Asia?" Issi ask
….
"ANSWER ME SHIROU!" Issei shout at me
"This is a lie, right. There is a way to save her., right? Issei said
I frowned after hearing his word
It's not like there is no method, but…
"…..Issei….-san!" Asia said
It seems she still enough strength to stay conscious
"Issei-san you came I'm so happy." Asia said while smiling
"Of course…sob…. I will, we are…sob… friends after all." Issei said while crying
I feel like my heart got teared apart after seeing this
It remind me so much when Illya died in front of me
Then, suddenly Asia looking at my direction
"M-My Lord is that you?" Asia said
She still saying that
Everyone then look at my direction
I make a troubled face, and it seems that the other finally understand that the other know as well that she is mistaken
"….My Lord…. I have request to you?" Asia said
Everybody, then looking at me again
Their face as if saying 'What will you do?'
Ahhhh! Forget it, might as well do the part!
"What is it child?" I ask
"I…..know that… I make a selfish request, but…. I want to live…. together with Issei-san for a little longer." Asia said
I see it comes to that after all
Issei and the other's already crying seeing Asia
I guess that is the only way left!
"Then child, I present you with 2 choice:
1. You can die here, but you can enter heaven, and judged fairly there.
2. You may live and will stay with Issei, and be reincarnated as a Devil, and never be able to enter Heaven.
Which one will you choose child?" I said
I then look at Rias-senpai direction, then she nod understanding what I mean
That is correct, if she reborn as a Devil her body will get a power boost, and may be able to contain [Twilight Healing] in her body.
"…I see. Then, I want to be a Devil." Asia answer firmly
"I-I-I like to stay together with Issei-san, may I?" Asia ask while looking at Issei
"Of course, you can." Issei answer while still crying
Rias-senpai then take out her bishop pieces, and put it on Asia body
Asia then lost her consciousness, but her breathing back to normal
Issei then cry out of happiness
The next day (Shirou POV)
The next day Rias gone to the student council room it seems she need to submit some document, and to ask Sona-kaichou help for Asia transfer
It seems that Asia will transfer in this school by the end of this week.
Oh yeah, Asia also now live in Issei home
What surprised me is that it seems Issei parent is more than willing to accept her, well that is one thing less to worry about.
As for Mittelt for now she is staying with Rias, it seems that Rias helping her in making report to the Grigori
I seems she will go back to Grigori headquarters by tomorrow it seems.
She seems a bit sad to have separated from us, so I said this
"You can come to my place if you want to visit us, ny time you want"
After I said that she cheered up and nod.
Well I guess this is what you call Happy End
I shouldn't be involved with anything strange for a while now
Oh! How I wish to punch myself when I'm thinking that
From now on I will be involved with a lot more strnge thing
I will also be more involved with Issei and the others more than I want, but this is will be told on another day
