High school DXD hero's devil's and dragon's
Chapter 1
Buildings are on fire in the dead of night. Screams are being heard by people being dragged through the streets. If anything could be heard over the screams, it's the sound of the foot soldiers making their presence known.
You almost wouldn't believe that earlier that same day the golden city was considered one of the most beautiful ones in the world. now it's ripped apart and its streets are stained with blood and the sound of crying of women and lost children.
An army of Raiders carrying stained white cloaks and broken swords and shields assaulted the city robbing killing raping looting everything they could get their hands on.
The women were captured and pinned together the men were slaughtered on site the children were taken if they were quiet if they made so much as a noise, they were killed with barely any remorse or hesitation.
In the highest castle on the top floor in the center of the city lived their beautiful Princess celestine. When the invasion started, she was hurried to the top tower and was locked inside her room.
She didn't want this, she wanted to be with her people even if there was little, she could have done. Her whole life she had been sheltered, she had been taught diplomacy and politics. But sometimes strategy, peaceful talk and diplomacy can only go so far especially when you're dealing with a man without remorse and more power than he knows what to do with.
Growing up a Princess she knew the day would come when she would have to step up and rule was fast approaching but she didn't believe it would be this soon. when her father and mother were both killed in a raid, she was told that she would be appointed as queen after her ceremony.
Needless to say, for a 17-year-old girl she was confused and lost. straddled with this new responsibility of being queen to a Kingdom of over 70,000 people and That's just the main castle not even counting the land surrounding it which could lead to 100,000 more.
civil unrest came after the death of her parents and mistrust in her. Leading to the more opportunistic to take a stand.
VULT, the leader of a mercenary group and private army the black dogs were the loudest to answer the people's distrust of the new regime. him and his army of 15,000 men declare themselves independent and demanded the monarchy state them as the Royal Army with VULT as king. Many in the Kingdom were against this. Vault had a reputation. He was called the mercenary king used to doing cruel practices to seize more power himself and the and the black dogs. Robbery, slave ownership Intimidate, rape and murder. Nothing was too much.
While many were against him and his practices there were a few but not unsubstantial voices that recognized his strength and ability to intimidate the lands surrounding their Kingdom. After weeks of Insecurity and unrest, a compromise was offered.
VULT proposed marriage between himself and the Princess much to her horror. despite wanting nothing to do with it. her advisors convinced her to have a meeting with him.
They agreed to meet in a Neutral place. A rundown bar right outside Main City. The Princess celestine was the first to arrive, along with five of her guards.
"How dare this disrespectful fool keep us waiting?" One of the guards exclaimed. After about 30 minutes or so.
The Princess, however, was almost relieved. Secretly hoping he would never show.
Immediately afterwards. The door burst open. One large, muscular man walked through. As soon as he did, his eyes were fixed on the Princess. All of the guards stood ready for anything. Under his presence. He was tall in height, tanned skin in bandit Garb. With A scar on his eye carrying a large sword.
As intimidating as he was. What was truly amazing was that he came by himself.
"Oh, so it's you?" Yeah, you're going to do great". The man said with a toothy grin.
Making no attempt to hide his lust. "I am celestine of the lucross family". The Princess said, trying to muster up any confidence she had.
Which was immediately stopped by the sound of his laughter. "Ha ha Yes, I know who you are, tits. I wouldn't be here otherwise".
At first, the Princess was taken back by the Vulgar way He addressed her until she saw the anxiousness of her guards.
"How dare you swine address the Princess that way"! One of her guards Barked at him.
Two other guards reached for their swords. Only to be stopped. By the Princess raising her hand. "It's quite alright. We did not come here to fight".
"Oh, I'm sorry. Would you prefer I undressed her instead"? VULT said mockingly Clearly enjoying the tension.
With celestine hand still Raised. They did not move. 'I mean she's halfway there already. Those big jugs are practically bouncing out.
At that, one of the guards lost his patience "you bastard" he shouted after drawing his sword and coming at VULT.
In a fast motion VULT had his hand raised. Caught the man's head And stopped all momentum. The guard struggled for a second. Before snap can be heard. When he was released, he fell down dead. "Monster". At this, the four other guards raised their swords. The Princess, seeing the conflict, ran in between them.
"Stop!", she ordered. Mostly with panic.
They hesitated when they saw her. "But Your Majesty"! "
"I ordered you to stop". She was able to get out. "Hehe smart, I'll give you that". "I'll be sure to fuck that out of you soon". VULT spoke up.
"Look tits here's the Situation. There is no negotiation here. The Kingdom is mine. Everything is mine. Well, I'll let you keep your house. When we marry".
"But that Bouncy slutty little body of yours is mine too".
As much as she hated being talked about like that, she couldn't exactly deny it. Until recently. She started to notice her body. Long blonde hair tall frame ample Boobs and bubble buttocks and her family's traditional choice of attire didn't help. She wore a strapless dress. With arm cuffs. A micro bikini with a boob window and no panties. It's almost like she was Designed for lust.
In three days, you will come to the Outlands. There we will marry publicly. If not, in one week I will assault the capital with everything I have which is a lot. Like I said, there is no negotiation here. "Whether You spend the rest of your life in my bed or in a basement for my men to take turns with are your only options. "
"Well, if there's any solace, I'll go first ether way".
That was the last thing he said before leaving. They carried the soldier's body out to be buried upon her insistence, on their way back to the capital.
She had them stop the horse drawn carriage she was in upon seeing a lake. she then ordered them to leave her alone for some time dispute their reluctance they agreed
She ran as soon as she saw the water and then spit up in the lake Washing her face to drown out her tears. She had no idea what she was going to do. Give her life and body away to an evil man, or go to war where even if they win will result in the deaths of thousands.
The next thing she knew a hand was placed on her shoulder turning around in a panic thinking it was one of her guards she sees a young man around her age.
"You ok" he said with a curious look in his eye.
"Who are you. where are my guards" she got out in a panic.
"DEMOS and as for your guards the hell if I know although if you ask me, they suck at their job." "What the hell do you mean by that"! She said in irritation.
"In case you haven't noticed you're here by yourself."
After everything she just went through, the way this guy was speaking to her, rubbed her the wrong way. "What are you doing here at all" she said more pissed off than before.
"You're the one puking next to my laundry and you're asking what I'm doing here". it was at that moment she noticed the pants and shirts in the river and then noticed the boy she was talking to was half naked.
She took in his appearance, slight muscular build dark black hair blue eyes with a fierce presence in them And a white clear skin tone.
"Oh I am so sorry" she said "don't worry about it" he responded almost cutting her off. He then went down to his clothes and put them in a basket which seemed to appear out of nowhere. Before she could ask he said "so you going to tell me what your were crying about".
She was taken aback that he even cared enough to ask but ultimately decided there was nothing he could do anyway so why bother. "no I don't really want to talk about it".
"Fine I wasn't that interested any way he responded back immediately"
ok at this Point she was getting tired of how rude this guy was, and was about to say something until two of her guards ran down
"Princess"! they exclaimed in a panic "I'm fine I'm fine its ok" she said raising her hands to stop them.
What amazed her was that the boy didn't seem to flinch or anything just continued washing his clothes "Princess are you alright" one of the guards said "I said I'm fine it's OK".
"We should head back to the capital immediately" the guard said in a hurry.
"I suppose you're right"
"Wait" the boy said turning all attention to him. he then tossed the card and it landed right on her chest. It had a symbol on it one commonly known for Greek worship one of the classes she studied
"Princess"? one of the guards asked confused "what is this". she said to the boy "only tear that card when it is incredibly important". he said without even looking at her.
"what does that mean". she said confused "don't blame me if you don't" was his response. Before she can get more answers one of her guards hurried her away. She then left, card in hand.
That was one week ago. Which I guess is the answer to the mercenary King's proposal?. She listened to many advisors over the last week some in favor of the deal Some incredibly opposed to it. But she ultimately decided. That if she handed the Kingdom over to this monster he would just get worse.
She had to stop him, even if it meant going to war with him and the black dogs. Now standing there. Trapped in her tower, looking down on her burning city, she realized she made a horrible mistake.
Their forces fought as best they could, but it just wasn't enough. She could hear the black dogs breaching the castle, and she prepared for the worst.
She refused to cower anymore than she already was. By hiding under the bed or something like that. She briefly considered just l
Leaping off the top building. At least that would be easier. Then she remembered the card. It was sitting on the desk. For a second she thought she was crazy for even considering it.
I mean, what could it possibly do? But as the door began pounding open. She ran over to the card as a last desperate moment and ripped it in half. Both sides burst into flames and then disappeared. Is this some prank? I guess she has no one to blame but herself. Placing hope in it. Was she expecting some miracles? So stupid?
As the door burst down, she grabbed A pickaxe from her fireplace. Last minute attempt to defend herself. Two tall grizzly men came through. Carrying swords stained with blood. Probably from the guards stationed outside.
"It is so messed up that the boss wants her first". One of the men said with a lustful grin. "Don't be too sad about it, the other man said. We all get a turn with her after this."
"I'll look forward to that. Now come on, let's make this easy". The first man said as he reached for her.
Only for a quick Swiss sound. To be heard through the air. Slicing the man's arm off. When the pain set in, he screamed as he ran to the ground. "What was that"!? The second man said as an arrow flew through his eye. He fell down dead instantly.
The Princess began to panic as she looked around. And found an open window. A boy then came through the window. And went to the first man. Pulling a small blade out, he jammed it into the black dog's neck. Causing him to fall down dead after he pulled it out. "What? What? What?" The Princess panicked.
"How? How did you?"
"You know, you should have ripped the card much sooner". "What"?
"If you had done that, it would have been alerted and I would have caused. A lot less damage getting here".
"Wait, what are you talking about"? His only response was pointing to the window. When she ran to see from her tower. The black dogs, their carts, their weapons all broken and destroyed. The people cheering at their deaths. "Oh, and one more thing". The boy said nonchalantly. He picked out And threw a head on the ground. Also out of nowhere like the basket from earlier.
It was the head of none other than mercenary king. "Where, where were you keeping that"? She stammered out.
"Seriously, that's your question"?
When she didn't respond, he said "OK, I have a magic satchel, alright"? "So I can carry a whole bunch of stuff at once".
"Who are you, what are you"! She screamed at the top of her lungs.
"In order my name is demos I think I told you that already. As for what I am, I am a demigod".
She could only Stare in shock. "Yep. Son of Zeus". He responded to her bewildered state.
