Q&A:
Q:if Rias is lieutenant-class how could a Hollow have beaten her?
A:Inexperience. Even though she may have the power of a lieutenant she doesn't have the battle experience or skill of one. Also Shinigami and Quincy have weapons and attacks that are made to kill Hollows, Devils do not.
Q:Will you be using the Quincy war arc and Ichigo's true zanpakuto?
A:Maybe. It depends on if we get to see Zangetsu's true power soon and how the arc is going to develop. So for now we will be sticking with the High School DxD story line.
Q: How do the power levels of Devils and Shinigami scale?
A:Low-Class Devil = Average Shinigami
Middle-Class = A Seated Officer rank 5th to 3rd
High-Class Devil = Lieutenants
Ultimate-Class Devil = Captains (With Bankai Activated)
Super-Class Devil = Genryusai/Zero Squad
Genryusai is listed as one of the top 10 strongest beings in the world.
Keep in mind that these are just averages. Power levels will very character to character this is just to give you an idea of how I scaled their powers.
Q:Will Ichigo have a sacred gear?
A: No.
Disclaimer:I don't own Bleach or High School DxD. If I did I would make totally awesome crossover manga and sell it for tons of money.

Chapter 2:The Truth
Ichigo awoke to the sound of his alarm blaring early in the morning. He let out a tired yawn as he sat up in his bed. Turning off his alarm he swung his legs out of bed and dragged himself to the bathroom. Siting under the warm water of the shower Ichigo could feel himself start to wake up from his morning haze. After finishing his shower he put on some sweat pants and made his way down stairs to make himself some breakfast. Since his skill level in cooking was zero he decided to just go with some toast and juice. Taking a bite of his toast he mentally started going down his list of things he needed to get done over the weekend trying to figure out what to do first. His musing though was cut short by the sound of his doorbell echoing through the house.
"Who the hell could that be?" he sighed walking toward his front door.
As he grabbed the doorknob the doorbell was rung again.
"One second!" he yelled in annoyance opening the door.
Opening the door he was greeted with the sight of crimson red hair.
"Shit"
**Flashback**
"What are you Kurosaki Ichigo?" Rias asked her eyes narrowed dangerously at the orange haired teen in front of her.
Ichigo looked down at girl in front of him with his own glare to match hers and then sighed. He lifted Zangetsu off his shoulder and placed him onto his back allowing the cloth to wrap around and sheath his zanpakuto.
"You should be more careful" he warned as he turned away from her and started to walk away.
"Where do you think you're going!" she yelled only to be ignored.
Rias gritted her teeth as she watched him jump into the air and disappear in the same burst of speed as before. She wanted answers, she wanted to know what those creatures were, where they came from, why they devoured the stray devil, but most of all she wanted to know what he was because from what she had just witnessed she knew he was strong. That would have to wait though because she needed to tend to her injured servants.
**Flashback End**
When Rias had decided that she would go to Ichigo's house first thing in the morning and demand some answers she hadn't been expecting him to answer the door in just a pair of sweat pants and a towel over his shoulders. Her face burned as she remembered seeing his well-built physique as she sat in his living room with her peerage (excluding Issei and Asia) standing behind her waiting for their host to change. As she calmed down her blush she decided to keep herself busy as they waited by inspecting the house around her. It was a very nice place and was well furnished; she suspected that his family probably had quite a bit of money. As she continued to look around she saw some picture frames on a table against the wall. Standing up she made her way to the table and looked at the picture. She smiled as she inspected the pictures of who she guessed were his family.
"You know its rude wonder around someone's house without permission" a voice said getting her attention.
Rias turned to face the voice seeing Ichigo had come down. She was thankful that he was fully clothed this time wearing a white T-shirt and a pair of dark blue jeans with an odd piece of wood with a skull on it hanging from a silver chain on his belt loop.
"I was just admiring your family" she smiled picking a picture of Ichigo and two younger girls. "Are these your sisters?"
"Cut the crap" he said dangerously knowing she wasn't here to talk about his family.
Rias nodded as she put down the picture frame, she was done beating around the bush. As they both took their seats Ichigo inspected the people standing behind her. They all looked to be in better condition then they were in last night. The only person who had any bandages that he could see was the blond boy who he had seen around school a few times.
"So how's Issei?" he asked.
"Issei is fine a little banged up but thanks to you, and Asia's healing he'll be just fine" Rias responded.
"What about you?... Umm" Ichigo asked trying to remember the boy's name.
"Kiba Yuuto" he introduced. "And I'll be fine Senpai"
"What were those things that attacked us last night?" Rias asked getting back to the reason they had come.
Ichigo raised a brow at the question. Had they really never seen a Hollow before? With how strong their reiryoku was and the fact that they could see spirits they'd have had to run into one before last night.
"Those 'things' are called Hollows"
"Hollows?" she asked her peerage looking just as confused behind her.
"Their human souls that lost their hearts to despair or were stuck in the human world for too long after they died"
That really caught Rias's attention. In all her studies she had never heard of a human soul turning in such a creature. She thought that when a human dies their soul just moves onto the next life either going to Heaven or Hell. She decided this would be something she would have to look more into later.
"What are you Kurosaki Ichigo?" asking the question that was on everyone's mind.
Ichigo knew this question was going to come up sooner or later so he decided to just give her the truth:
"I'm human" he answered.
Rias stared blankly at Ichigo as she processed his answer. When it finally hit her it infuriated her.
''There is now way an ordinary human could do what you did last night or emit such power" She responded in a slightly angry tone.
''I would have to disagree with you on that'' he said to himself but still loud enough for Rias to hear thinking of his friends and the fullbringers own abilities. "I would like to know the same about you and what you were doing out there in the middle of the night if you don't mind"
Rias and her peerage sweated at the question thinking she gave them away and responded, "I don't know what you mean?"
Cut the crap, he said. "I know from what you just asked and your other questions that you guys definitely aren't human. So what are you guys and why were you fighting those hollows last night?
Rias acknowledged his smart deduction with a bitter smile and replied, "Nice observation but I would first like you to answer my question first if you would please." She replied smoothly.
"I already told you, I am a human" Ichigo replied back.
Rias may not believe him but she could tell he wasn't lying due to his clam expression even though they out numbered him. That was one of the things that set her on edge about him even though the numbers were in their favor it seemed to not effect him.
Anyway if he was a human there were a few things he still could be: a magician, an exorcist, or a even sacred gear wielder. He obviously wasn't the first due to the lack of magic seals, so it had to be one of the other two. The sword he used could be a sacred gear similar to Kiba's or maybe even a holy sword judging from its strength. Though she nor the others had felt any holy power coming from the sword or it's attack he used, and if he was apart of the church he would know what they were, so he had to be a sacred gear user.
"Fine you maybe human, but you must possess some kind of sacred gear" she said warily.
Her peerage became more alert at her statement and waited for Ichigo's response.
"What the hell is a sacred gear?" he questioned making his guests face fault.
Collecting herself Rias looked at Ichigo in astonishment. He didn't even know what a sacred gear was? "So you don't even know what that is. What exactly are you Kurosaki Ichigo?" She asked even more pressingly.
"I keep on telling you but you must be hard of hearing Gremory Rias" he responded hotly.
"And I don't believe that. So you should tell us what you really are now!" She responded commandingly while her peerage looked on in shock due to her display and current attitude.
"You know that's not a tone you should speak to someone who saved you and your friend's asses a few hours ago, and why should I answer your questions when you haven't answered any of mine yet?" He said starting to get irritated.
Rias blushed in embarrassment and anger at his comment. "That is irrelevant and I see no need to answer your questions since you won't give me any straight answers especially considering that those 'hollows' have never appeared before you came" she said back bitterly.
"Are you saying I brought them here?" He said back dangerously
"Maybe, maybe not. It depends on when you tell me what you really are and everything else you know about those creatures"
"And what about my questions?" He asked
"I have no need to answer your questions since this is my home and territory and you are the only who needs to answer our questions, Kurosaki Ichigo." She said in a final tone
Ichgo bowed his head making his hair mask his facial expression.
"Well then if it's like that then I don't see the need to continue this discussion any longer" He said back "So I think it's best if you leave" wanting to end the whole conversation.
"And if I refuse?" she replied mockingly
"I'd rather you didn't but if you do…" he said looking up finally, "then I'll just have to make you won't I?" he said staring her down dangerously.
Rias slightly trembled in fear as she looked into his eyes seeing the power and resolve in them and knew it was a bad idea even with their numbers to try and start a fight.
"Tch, fine I guess were done here" she replied getting up from her seat "Akeno, Kiba, Koneko, let's go." She called as she walked towards the door.
"Yes Buchou" they replied following close behind her while Ichigo looked on passively.
As they all left and door closed behind them Ichigo let out a sigh. "Why do I always attract weird stuff?"
Ichigo sighed in frustration as he lay on his couch. The argument with Rias had ruined his day. He ended up not doing anything he had wanted to get done and just sat around doing nothing. While he wanted to blame Rias for how the conversation escalated the way it did he knew he was partly to blame.
'But it was definitely more her fault' he thought
Getting up Ichigo decided to just let it go and find something for dinner. Putting on a black jacket he opened the door to see Issei about to ring his doorbell.
"Yo Issei" he greeted looking Issei over seeing he had a few bandages on his face.
"H-hey Ichigo"
"What's up?" Ichigo asked wondering what Issei was doing on his front step.
"Nothing much really, what about you?"
"Just heading out to get some food" Ichigo answered closing his door behind him.
"Well how about you come over and have dinner at my place?" Issei smiled.
"You sure?"
"Yeah, my mom actually sent me over here to invite you over" Issei admitted.
Ichigo thought it over for a second before answering. "Sure" who was he to deny a free meal?
"I'm home!" Issei announced as he and Ichigo entered the house.
"Welcome back" Asia greeted happily noticing Ichigo standing next to Issei.
"Oh Ichigo-san you decided to join us I'm so happy" she smiled
"Sorry for the intrusion" Ichigo said as he took off his shoes.
Following Issei and Asia Ichigo made his way to the dining table where Issei's father was already seated waiting for dinner to be served. As they took their seats Issei's mother walked out of the kitchen carrying a plate of food in each hand.
"Itadakimasu!" they all said in unison before starting to dig into their food.
"So Kurosaki-san how has it been going to a new school?" Issei's mom asked.
"It's been fine, thank you"
"What about living on your own? I hope you've been eating well" she smiled
"I try" he chuckled thinking about all the convenience store bentos in his garbage.
For the rest of dinner they kept up a light conversation of asking Ichigo questions about his hometown and his old school. It did get a little awkward when they asked about his academics and he told them he usually scored in the top 20 but there was that one time he scored in the top ten. Issei's parents had started crying and thanking kami that Issei had made friends with such a good student, and asking him to please take good care of their son and save him from his path of perversion and bad grades.
"Your parents are a little odd" Ichigo commented as he and Issei made their way to Issei's room after dinner.
"Tell me about it"
"Though you and those two 'friends' of yours are the biggest perverts in the scool from what heard around school though" he said and looked at him plainly
"Y-you don't need to say it so plainly like that" he sweat dropped as they entered his room.
"So you said you wanted to talk?" Ichigo asked taking a seat on the ground.
"Yeah, I just wanted to thank you"
"Thank me?" Ichigo asked trying to play dumb.
"Asia told me everything that happened after I was knocked out" Issei explained. "She told me how you saved me and defeated those two creatures"
Knowing that is was no use Ichigo sighed, "It was no big deal" he dismissed. "Could we not talk about it I already heard enough about it from Gremory-san"
"You talked to Buchou?"
"I guess you could say we talked" Ichigo responded scratching the back of his head. 'I would call it more of an interrogation' he thought
Seeing that Issei was confused he told him how Rias had came to his hose earlier that morning and how they had ended up arguing.
"I can understand where she is coming from" Issei commented after Ichigo finished his story.
Seeing that Ichigo didn't particularly like his answer Issei decided it would be best to elaborate.
"I-I mean I have a bunch of questions myself" he said waving his hand in front of his face. "But the person you just talked about doesn't really sound like Buchou, if I had to guess I would say that she originally had come over to thank you for saving us but her curiosity got in the way then when you two started arguing her pride came into play"
Ichigo nodded, kind of understanding where Issei was coming from. Even though he didn't know Rias very well he could tell that the way their conversation went wasn't her. Truth is he probably would have done the same thing.
"It also sounds like it was somewhat your fault too." he added.
"Yeah I know" Ichigo sighed standing up and walking toward the door.
"Where are you going?"
"I have something I have to take care of" Ichigo he sighed as he opened the door. "Thanks for the meal" he waved as he left.
Rias sighed as she sat at her desk going over some paperwork. After she left Ichigo's house she had returned to the clubroom to do some work but she just couldn't focus enough to get anything done.
"Ara ara still thinking about your argument with Kurosaki-kun" Akeno asked as she walked into the room holding a tray of tea.
"N-no" she denied a blush making it's way to her face.
"If you ask me it could have gone much better" Akeno continued as she placed a cup of tea in front of her master.
'That's an understatement' Rias thought.
Rias knew that she messed up and lost her temper when she was at Ichigo's house. She just never met someone who was so rude.
"Have you decided what to do about him?"
"Not yet" she answered before taking a sip of tea. "For now we'll just have to keep an eye one him"
"Are you going to tell your brother?"
"Not until we know more about him," she continued as she drank more of her tea.
As the two girls continued to talk about the unknown element that was Ichigo Kurosaki they were interrupted by the sound of tapping on the window. Wondering what it could be Akeno moved to open it. As she opened the window she was greeted with the sight of none other then the person they were just talking about, he was wearing the same cloths that he wore when he had saved them along with the massive sword strapped to his back. But what astonished her was he seemed to be just standing in mid air, not flying or hovering, just standing like he was on the ground. As Ichigo stepped in threw the window Akeno jumped back prepared for a fight.
"Akeno" Rias called getting her friend's attention. "Leave us"
"But Buch…" Akeno stopped as she saw the look in Rias's eyes left no room for argument. "As you wish Buchou" she bowed before exiting the room.
"Have a seat" Rias said directing him toward the couches in the center of the room.
Ichigo nodded as he made his way toward the couches and taking a seat Rias following close behind and taking the seat opposite of him. They both sat there in silence the only sound was the clock ticking in the background.
"I'm sorry" they said in unison shocking the other.
Ichigo opened his mouth to try and say something but Rias lifted her hand silencing him.
"Please allow me to go first" She said taking a breath and bowing. "I'm sorry for my actions this morning and if it's ok with you I would like to start over"
Rias's apology really stunned Ichigo it was something he hadn't been expecting. On his way here he had planed to apologize and answer her questions. He was brought form his thoughts though as he heard Rias clear her throat, still waiting for his answer.
"Um sure"
"That's good" She smiled. "Then please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Rias Gremory and I'm a devil"
"A devil?" asked Ichigo
"Yes, my family is one few clans left of the 72 pillars and is the family in charge of this territory" she explained.
This was all new information for Ichigo. Even though he seen a lot of things because of his adventures as a shinigami he never expected to meet an actual devil.
"You don't seem very affected by this information"
"Believe me when you've seen all the things I have it takes a lot more then finding out devils exist to shock you" he sighed as he scratched the back of his head. "Plus I knew you were different since the first day of school"
"I see" she nodded wondering what he meant by 'what he's seen'.
"Does that mean Issei and Asia are devils too?"
"Yes, they are apart of my peerage"
"Peerage?" Ichigo asked.
"Long ago the three factions were at war and devils suffered heavy casualties so to fix it the evil piece system was created" she explained as she held up what looked like a chess piece to Ichigo. "With the evil pieces we can resurrect humans and turn them into devils, when they become devils they agree to join the devils peerage in other words they become our servants"
"You seem to be very forthcoming with information" Ichigo pointed out as he listened to her.
"It seems the only way to get you to talk with me" She smiled.
"I wasn't lying when I said I was human" the young shinigami said deciding it was his turn to share. "I just have the powers of shinigami"
Rias eyes widened. She had heard stories about the shinigami but she would never have thought she would meet one.
"So what's a shinigami doing at Kuoh Academy?" Rias asked
"Going to school" Ichigo said simply.
Rias stared blankly at Ichigo before she raised her hand in font of her mouth and started to laugh.
"You really are interesting Kurosaki Ichigo"
/2 Weeks Later/
Ichigo yawned as he walked home by himself from school. It had been two weeks since his talk with Rias and things had not gone like he had hoped. When he had went to talk with Rias he had expected after he told her what he really was she would leave him alone, but in reality it had caused the exact opposite to happen. Everyday after their talk her and Akeno would come find him and have lunch with him. Then after school she would drag him to their clubroom where she would ask him a bunch of questions about Shinigami and she would also tell him about Devils. It's not like he didn't enjoy it, he had become quick friends with everybody in the club and it was nice to be able to talk with somebody about the paranormal stuff in his life. They even made him an official member of the Occult Research club. But the last few days had been different. During his last few visits to the clubroom when him and Rias would either talk about the world of Shinigami or do their homework she seemed distracted by something.
**Flashback**
"Oi Rias are you even listening" Ichigo said getting the red head's attention.
"O-oh sorry Ichigo I must have been spacing out" she apologized. "What was the question?"
"Never mind" he sighed.
Rias frowned as she went back to her work in front of her
"It's none of my business but if something is bothering you I'm here to help" he said without looking at her.
Rias looked at Ichigo in shock. She hadn't been expecting that at all but that didn't stop the blush from coming to her face.
"Thank you" she whispered as she looked away from him trying to hide her blush.
**Flashback End**
Ichigo let out a tired sighed as he fell down into his bed.
'Maybe tomorrow will be better' he thought closing his eyes to get some sleep.
Just as Ichigo could feel himself fall into unconsciousness a rush of familiar reiryoku entered his room. Ichigo opened his eyes to seen none other then Rias standing in his room.
"Rias what the hell are you doing here? it's late" he asked sitting up in his bed. "And what have I said about teleporting into my house!"
Rias didn't respond to Ichigo's question she just stared at him with determination in her eyes.
"Ria…" Ichigo was cut off as Rias as pushed him down onto his bed and straddled his waist.
"Ichigo please sleep with me" she requested looking directly into his eyes.
Ichigo looked at Rias blankly. "What?" he asked.
"Please take my virginity" she requested again.
"…What!" Ichigo yelled a blush sprouting on his face as Rias started to remove her shirt.
"I have considered many options but this seems to be the only way" she said almost like she was talking to herself as she started to remove her bra.
"What the hell are you talking about!" Ichigo asked very confused about what was happening. "And put your damn cloths back on!" he demanded as he covered his eyes with his hand.
"I'm sorry to make such a selfish request but if there's evidence then they can't complain"
'Evidence. What the hell is she going on about' he thought as he tried not to look between his fingers even though every cell in his body was telling him to.
"Yuuto wouldn't do it because he is a pure knight, and even though I'm sure if I asked Issei he would accept without hesitation I can't bring myself to" she continued her voice low and thoughtful. "Then what you said the other day came to my head, and my mind didn't feel so heavy. That's when I knew you were the one"
'This is not what I meant!' he screamed in his mind as he felt his hand being lifted from his eyes and placed on something soft.
"I knew that if I gave you my first time I wouldn't regret it and that you would cherish it"
Not being able to take it anymore Ichigo opened his eyes to a sight he had never seen before. There on his lap was an almost completely nude Rias with her breasts completely exposed for him to see and that the hand he had been using to cover his eyes was now grouping one of her breasts. As Ichigo looked at her he could feel his body starting to heat up and his brain start to shut down.
"Is this your first time or do you have experience?" she asks nervously.
"I-it's my first time" he stuttered out without realizing it.
"I'm glad" she smiles. "At least we'll be able to figure it out together. You just have to put it here" she says touching her pubic area.
Ichigo stares blankly at the place she is touching and can't help the feeling himself start to get hard.
"It's ok I'm nervous too" she said placing a hand over his hand that was holding her breast.
He hadn't noticed before but he could feel her heart beating away in her chest like a jackhammer. As he takes the moment to really feel her heart beat Ichigo also starts to notice her usual pure white shin is tinted pink in a light blush that shows that even though she's embarrassed she is making herself move forward.
As Ichigo opens his mouth to speak the dark room is filled with a bright silver light getting both his and Rias attention. Acting on instinct Ichigo wraps his arm around Rias and rolls out of his bed while grabbing his shinigami badge from his nightstand.
Standing in font of Rias Ichigo looks to see the light coming from a magic circle on his floor.
"Looks like I was a bit late" she sighed
Before Ichigo could ask what she meant the magic circle vanished and left a silver haired women that was wearing a maid uniform.
"I never would have thought you would do something like this to just to break the agreement" the silver haired maid said taking a step toward Ichigo and Rias.
As she took her step she notice Ichigo pull Rias behind him more putting himself directly in between them.
"If I don't go this far Otou-sama and Onii-sama won't listen, right?" Rias retorted stepping around Ichigo so she could talk the maid.
"Sirzechs-sama and Master won't be happy when they hear you tried to give your purity to some commoner" she glared at Ichigo.
'Commoner!' Ichigo thought a tick mark popping on his head.
"My purity is mine alone I can give it whom ever I choose" Rias glared. "Also don't call my friend a commoner. Even if it's you Grayfia I won't forgive you"
"Anyway" the women now known as Grayfia said ignoring Rias's threat. "You are the heiress of the Gremory Household, so please don't show your skin to a man so recklessly" she scolded about to hand Rias her shirt but stopped as Ichigo placed his blanket over Rias's shoulders.
"Who are you and what are you doing in my house?" he asked in a serious tone eyeing Grayfia.
Even if she didn't look intimidating the power he could feel coming from her told him he should treed lightly in this situation.
"My name is Grayfia I'm a maid that serves the Gremory family and I'm here to retrieve Ojou-sama" she introduced herself.
"She doesn't have to go anywhere she doesn't want to" Ichigo glared tightening his grip on his shinigami badge.
"It's ok Ichigo" Rias reassured, lightly placed her hand on his arm. "Grayfia let's go back to my room I will listen to what you have to say there" she said as she moved toward the silver haired maid and taking her shirt. "Is it ok if Akeno comes?"
"It's fine, a High-class devil must have their Queen by their side at all times" Grayfia nodded.
"I'm sorry for troubling you Ichigo I wasn't thinking strait, let's just forget about today's incident" she smiled as she walked up to Ichigo fully clothed again.
Ichigo gives Rias a confused look as she stood in front of him a placed a hand on his face. Before he could ask what she was doing she stood up on her toes and placed a kiss on his cheek.
"Please forgive me for today with this, and lets meet again at school" she said before she walked back toward Grayfia and both of them vanished in a flash of light.
"What the hell just happened?"
"Let's just forget about today's incident" those words rang through Ichigo's head as he walked toward the clubroom.
'Like hell I will' he thought angrily a tick mark appearing on his head. 'I ended up not getting any sleep last night she owes me some damn answers'
When he finally reached the door to the main room where they usually meet he stopped, as he was about to open it as he could hear Rias's voice coming from the other side.
"Let me go Riser" he heard her say a certain tone of disgust in her voice.
"Listen here Rias, I am the face of the Phenex family I will not have my honor sullied by some selfish brat" said a male voice Ichigo didn't recognized.
"I said…"
Rias was interrupted as the doors to the room flew open with a loud bang as they hit the wall. She was surprised to see Ichigo standing in the archway his leg extended forward showing that he had kicked the doors open.
"She told you to let her go" Ichigo said his voice low talking about the grip Riser had on Rias's arm.
"My that's quite the entrance" Riser smirked. "Is he another one of your Peerage Rias?" he asked completely ignoring Ichigo.
"Last warning" Ichigo warned making Riser laugh.
"Rias you really need to teach your peerage some mann-" Riser was cut off a Ichigo's fist was buried into his face lifting him off his feet and sending him back into Rias's desk.
"I warned him" Ichigo sighed shaking his hand; it had been a while since he last punched somebody.
Rias and her peerage just stood there shocked that Ichigo was able to close the distance between them so fast.
"And you!" he yelled looking at Rias making her jump. " Like hell I'm just going to forget about it, you owe me a explanation!" He continued his tirade.
Rias's peerage watched in in confusion and fascination as Ichigo continued to yell about things they knew nothing about.
"I've never seen Ichigo-san so angry before" Asia said as she hid behind Issei.
"Ufufu Buchou must have done something really bad to get him this mad" Akeno laughed behind her hand.
"Ichigo-senpai really knows how to change the mood" Kiba smiled Koneko nodding in agreement.
"I wonder what happened?" Issei said thinking aloud.
As they all pondered Issei's question another person in the room decided to make her presence known.
"You again" Grayfia said getting Ichigo's attention. "What are you doing here"
"He is a member of the club Grayfia" Rias answered for Ichigo.
"Unless he is apart of your Peerage he shouldn't be here" Grayfia narrowed her eyes at Ichigo seeing that he seems to be a bigger problem then she once thought.
"I don't plan on going anywhere" Ichigo glared back.
As Ichigo and Grayfia stared at each other in a battle of wills Riser started to stand both shocked and furious that he had just been punched.
"Why you little" he sneered before spiting out two of his teeth that turned to ash as soon as they hit the ground.
""You're stronger then you look" Ichigo observed lazily. "Usually that knocks people out cold"
Riser growled as he took a step toward Ichigo only stopping when Rias stepped between them.
"That's enough Riser" Rias glared.
Riser humped in response and straitened out his jacket. "Whatever, We have more pressing matters to attended to anyway, like our future engagement" he smiled wickedly.
'Engagement?' Ichigo wondered.
"Riser I already told you once so listen carefully so I don't have to repeat myself again, I will not marry you" Rias said with finality. "It was also agreed that the engagement would not take place till after I graduate university"
"That's right, but your Otou-sama and Sirzechs-sama are worried. They are afraid that your household will become extinct. We lost a great number of pureblood Devils in the last war. Even if the war has ended our rivalry with the Fallen Angels and God hasn't ended yet. It's not rare for the successors of pureblood Devil to get killed in the worthless battle against them, which leads to the household becoming extinct. So for a pureblood Devil that are also happens to be a High-class Devil, getting together would be the obvious solution for the forces of Devils. A pureblood High-class Devil. Even you know that these children will be important from now on, right?" he said his wicked smile never leaving his face. "The newly produced Devils, are expanding in terms of strength but that would make us, the High-class Devils with old history background, lose our place. There are old nobles who get close to the reincarnated Devils because they are very powerful. Well, that might be fine. The newly produced Devils are also important for our future. But we can't allow the pureblood Devils to go extinct right? You and I were chosen in order to prevent the purebloods from going extinct. My house is safe because I have my older brothers. But there are only two siblings in your house. And your brother is someone who left the house. Then there would only be you, Rias, who can inherit the House of Gremory. If you don't take a husband, the House of Gremory will go extinct in your generation. Are you trying to crush the household that has been continuing for a very long time? Because of the past war, there is not even half the number of Devils who were referred as "72 pillars". This marriage has the future of the Devils on the line."
"I am not going to crush my house Riser, and I have no qualms with taking a husband"
"Oh that's great, then lets's-" Riser started only to interrupted.
"But I won't marry you, I will marry the person of my choice. Even the pureblooded Devils have the right to choose"
It didn't take a genius to see Riser didn't like how Rias was talking. "You know Rias, I didn't even want to come to this small old building in the human world. Rather I hate the human world. The fire and wind in this world is disgusting, and for a Devil like me who rules over fire and wind, I can't stand it" he spat as flames came to life all around his body. "I will take you back to the underworld, even if I have to burn all your servants"
Ichigo could feel the killing intent fill the room as Rias and Riser squared off a red aura coming off of her. While this much killing intent wasn't anything new for Ichigo he could tell people like Issei and Asia had never felt anything like it. The flames around Riser start to grow bigger and the heat become more intense. It grew to the point where most of Rias's peerage with the exception of Akeno had to cover their eyes to keep from being blinded. Ichigo can tell this guy was strong maybe even as strong as Rias. The flames eventually started to gather around Riser's back and from into a pair of bird like wings. It looks like a battle is about to begin when the rooms becomes deathly cold. The feeling in the room changes so fast even Ichigo sucked in his breath in surprise. This was a feeling he hadn't felt in years. It felt like when he had fought Byakuya, it wasn't a presence that tried to suffocate you like Kenpachi, it was much more calm and collected. Ichigo turned his head to look at the source of the presence and stared at the silver haired maid. He knew he had been right to be weary of her when they first met.
"Ojou-sama, Riser-sama please calm down" she asked in a clam voice that betrayed the presence they were all feeling. "If you both continue like this, I won't be able to hold my tongue mush longer. For Sirzeches-sama's honor I won't hold back"
Riser and Rias both seemed to calm down at Grayfia's words knowing full well that they wouldn't want the "Strongest Queen" to get angry.
"Master, Sirzeches-sama, and those from House Phenex knew it would turn out like this. So they decided on a way to settle the matter" she continued. "Ojou-sama and Riser-sama will participate in an unofficial Rating Game… but only if Ojou-sama accepts"
Rias seemed to think for a second before whispering to herself. "Just how far are they intending to interfere with my life" she chuckled. "Alright then let's settle this with a game Riser"
Riser smirks at Rias's answer. "That's fine with me, I'm already a matured Devil and have participated in Rating Games. Even so you still want to play?"
"I will definitely blow you away Riser" Rias answered determination in her voice.
"Fine then"
"Understood. I, Grayfia, have confirmed both side's answers and will notify the two households. I will be in charge of the game between the two households" she bowed.
"This game will be a laugh" Riser chuckled. "Only your Queen will be able to fight on par with my adorable servants" he said as he snapped his fingers.
In the center of the room a magical circle appeared before bursting into flame and 15 girls were standing in the room. As Ichigo looked over the girls he could feel varying levels Reiryoku coming from them some stronger then others. He just couldn't get past the fact they were all female.
'Is this guy some kind of pervert?' he wondered.
"Unlike you who only has five pieces I have a full set" Riser smirked as he looked over at Rias's peerage. "H-hey Rias…this servant-kun over there seems to be crying a lot while looking at me" Riser pointed making Rias and Ichigo following his finger.
Indeed Issei seemed to be balling as he looked between Riser and his peerage. As Rias put her hand over her face in frustration Ichigo just sweat-dropped wondering what was wrong with him.
"His dream to have a harem, I think he was moved after seeing your servants" she sighed.
'How do I attract the weirdest people?' Ichigo wondered after hearing Issei's dream.
Riser seems to smirk at this before calling one of his girls over, and before you could wonder why he start to tongue kiss her in front of everyone.
"This guy is a pervert" Ichigo says aloud as he watches their tongues dance around with each other.
After he seems to be finished with the one girl he moves onto another and continue his make out session. Ichigo feels like he is going to puke as he watches Riser's tongue dart into the other girl's mouth and they both start to moan.
"You will never be able to do this" Riser smirks at Issei.
"Damn it you bastard!" Issei shouts in anger. "Boosted Gear!"
'What are you going Issei' Ichigo worries for his perverted neighbor.
"A womanizer like you doesn't deserve Buchou"
'Weren't you just looking up to him?' Ichigo sweat-dropped
"Weren't you just looking up to me?" Riser asked
"Sh-shut up it's different" Issei stutters sounding like a child. "We don't even need to have a game I will just take you all down here"
[Boost]
Unamused by Issei shouting Riser sighs. "Mira, do it"
"Yes Riser-sama" a small girl with a bow staff steps forward charging Issei.
As the tip of her staff is about to make contact with Issei's stomach it stops. She looks to see a large hand holding her staff from moving any farther.
"Don't do that" Ichigo warns his grip tightening in the girls staff.
As the girl tries to free her staff from Ichigo's grip his strength becomes to much and it snaps in his hand. Letting go the girl jumps back shocked that her staff was just broken with somebody's bare hand.
"What are you anyways?" Riser asks his curiosity peeked. "Are you apart of Rias's peerage?"
"No I'm not" Ichigo answered. "I'm just a human"
While Riser didn't really believe him he didn't really care either since he wasn't apart of Rias's peerage.
"Rias how about we have the match in 10 days" he said as he walked toward his peerage. "We could have it now but that wouldn't be interesting"
While Rias didn't like the sound of Riser giving her a handicap she knew that Issei and Asia were far from ready to participate in a rating game. So she just nodded in agreement.
"If it's you then you should be able to improve them by then" he continued as a magic circle appeared below him and his peerage. "Next time we meet is at the game" he vanished in a rush of fire.
"Thanks for that Ichigo" he chuckled before he felt something hard make contact with the bridge of his nose.
"What the were you thinking!" Ichigo yelled as Issei withered on the ground in pain. "Saying all that only for you to almost get your ass handed to you!"
As Issei clutched his nose he knew was probably broken he knew Ichigo was right. While the things he said sounded cool he let his anger and jealousy get the better of him.
"Ichigo's right" Rias scolded as Asia started to heal Issei's nose. "You shouldn't just run into battle like that"
"Hai Buchou, I'm sorry"
Rias nodded before she turned and walked toward her desk. "What we need to worry about now is the training" she said as she took a seat. "My family owns a place in the mountains that we can use, we'll leave for it tomorrow"
"Sounds good to me" Ichigo said making everyone look at him.
"What are you talking about Ichigo?" Rias asked
"I'm going to help you train of course"
Authors Note: Hey everyone long time no see. Now I know it's been a little over a month since chapter one and I'm sorry for that. July was just not my month, I had so many personal things to take care of and we also had to put my dog to sleep so that really killed any motivation to write for a while. So some things to know about this chapter:
1. I hate it. It was a pain in the ass to write and I don't like how it tuned out.
And that's basically it. So I hope to see you guys next chapter which hopefully doesn't take a month to write. If you have any questions leave them in your review and I'll answer them in the next chapter.
Also a special thanks to Njkdo123 for being my Beta and helping write the scene with Ichigo and Rias in Ichigo's house. It really helped me out.
See you next time.
