Well, without nothing else to say let's start with the chapter! Enjoy!
Chapter 6: Gremory
I can't believe we are going to Japan right now…
Don't take me wrong, Japan is a wonderful place the only problem is that we are not going for vacation, no we are going for another reason. We don't know for how long we are going to stay there, but thankfully Grayfia told us that she saved us an room on a hotel. Also she saved us some clothes in our bags, probably pajamas and another battlesuits, since our last battlesuits got destroyed thanks to the Crypt Lord.
We are going to Japan because the fallen angels attacked the Vatican. Well, not only the Vatican. They attacked also the Protestant Church and Eastern Orthonox Church. Reason they attacked the Vatican?
They wanted the fragments of the Excalibur. But why? I mean, I don't see a good reason to stole the excaliburs, Dulio once told me that the Governor of Gregori, Azazel didn't care about holy weapons. He cared about Sacred Gears, let's just say that he was an amateur from the creations of God.
Oh right, I should tell you were the hell am I now, right? Well, i'm in a jet with Irina and Xenovia, they are sitting in another place. Both of them talking about...I don't even know to be honest. I'm not paying attention to them, I am trying to solve this madness.
Heh, I still remember how everything happened…
Flashback.
"Any questions?" I asked to both Wolf and Darius who are looking at me with raised eyebrows, right now i'm waiting for Irina to contact Griselda. More specific to call for someone to pick us up. This place is freezing… it seems that Kel'Thuzad decided to leave a small present for us.
"Can you control Frostmourne?" Wolf asks with narrowed eyes. I knew that would be the first question.
I nodded my head. "Yes I can control Frostmourne, the only problem is that I only got fifteen minutes." I stated making them nod their heads.
'Or so I thought…' I thought looking at my hand with narrowed eyes…how did the whispers started to rang in my mind? I still had time to control my runeblade… I need to know what's going on... Or else… No. I don't even want to think about it.
"The Vatican knows about this?" Darius asks, getting my attention back.
I slowly nodded my head. "Kind of… let's just say the higher ranks only know about this, the only ones that they know about my secret and are not higher ranks…" I trailed off turning my gaze to the holy users. "And now you two know about my little secret." I added turning my gaze back to them just in time to see them nodding their heads.
"Don't worry, your secret is safe with us." Darius says, patting my back. I look to Wolf who nodded his head too, saving my secret from the Exorcists Recruits.
"Thanks guys, I really-"
"Griselda-san can you hear me?" Irina says, getting my attention. I turn to look at Irina with a frown, trying to repair the earpiece…I could only hear static coming from the other side.
[…Hello?! Can someone hear me?!] A familiar voice says, making me sigh. Thank God it works, or else we would be in this ruins for an eternity…
"Griselda-san!" Irina exclaimed happily. "Good news! We had defeated the Crypt Lord!" Irina cheered.
[Good to know Irina, is Jarvan over there?!] Griselda asks making me raise an eyebrow…whats happening? The tone of her voice sounds…weird.
"Ummm…yeah do you want to talk with him?" Irina asks, turning to look at me with a raised eyebrow. I simply shrug my shoulders I don't even know what she wants to talk with me.
[Yes.] Was her only response, I raised my hand while she throws her earpiece towards me. Catching it I turn the volume, so everyone can hear the message. I got a bad feeling about this…
"I'm here Griselda." I answered. Watching how Xenovia decided to join the group that is surrounding me right now, ready to hear the message.
[Jarvan. I need you to go with Irina and Xenovia to Japan.] She says bluntly making me raise an eyebrow again. I look up to see that Wolf and Darius has their eyebrows raised too while Xenovia's eyes are widen as dinner plates and finally…Irina whose eyes has some…twinkles and her hands clasped…
"…Alright, but why?" I asked with a frown, ignoring the screams of joy coming from Irina.
[The Vatican was attacked.] She answered, making my eyes widen in shock.
"…What?" Xenovia asks shocked. After a few minutes of silence.
"Impossible…" Wolf says shocked too.
"W-Who!?" I stammered, waiting for a good explanation.
[The Fallen Angels.] She simply says with a sigh.
"But why?" Darius this time asks. "Why they would attack the Vatican?"
[They attacked us because they wanted the Excalibur Fragments.] She answered making Irina gasp in horror. [Unfortunately, they succeed on getting the Fragments.]
"For such weapons to fall in the wrong hands…" Xenovia growled out, tightening her grasp on her Holy Sword.
[They also attacked the Protestant Church and the Othonox Church.] Griselda added making me grab the back of my head.
"Are you kidding me…?" I asked, I can't believe this is happening to us…
[I wish. Thats why I need you to go there with Irina and Xenovia. To retrieve the Fragments.] She explained.
"Alright then. Where are they?" I asked getting a sigh from her.
[The last time we heard about them, they were somewhere in a placed called Kuoh, don't worry I will send you a Jet to get you in there.] She assured making me nod.
"Is that all?" I asked, if it's possible I want more information about the place and the new mission.
[…Actually, yes there's more. More bad news, the place is Devil territory.] She added making me sigh.
Great not only Fallen Angels but Devils as well…
"Do you know the Clan?" I asked, probably they are not hostiles like others Devils, let's take Bael as an example. They are tough.
[The territory belongs to the Gremory Clan.] Griselda says. [But for a reason, the Sitri Clan is there as well.] She added.
Well… If Dulio was right, the Gremory Clan are known because they treat their servants with love…
Bullshit. Even if they treat their servants with love, they are still monsters. Our worst enemies since millenias. Maybe when the mission is finished I will clean this place called Kuoh.
"So what? We attack them?" I asked getting a sigh from her.
[No. We don't want to start a war again, we are talking about Rias Gremory and Sona Sitri. Next Heirs of their respective clans.] She says I simply whistle, well… it seems that we are going to pay a visit to the next heirs. [Also, they are the younger sisters from the two Maous. Sirzechs Lucifer and Serafall Leviathan.] She added making my eyes widen.
'Good thing I asked…' I thought. I don't even want to know what would happen if I somehow kill one of their little sisters. I would probably feel the wrath of the two Maous.
"So… should we ignore them?" I asked, probably would be the best idea. Like they said. Leave me alone, and I don't mess with you.
[Yes and no.] She says making me raise an eyebrow. [First you are going to have to talk with Rias Gremory about the situation, and convince her to let you walk around Kuoh whithout problem. If she accepts, just concentrate on the mission, and don't get involved into their problems. When you finished just contact me again and I will send someone to pick you up.] She explained making me nod my head.
"Alright, is that all?" I asked, hoping to have more information about the mission.
Unfortunately my pleas aren't going to be answered. [No. Thats all I have. A jet is flying towards your destination. Get ready.] She advised us.
"Don't worry, we are going to get the Excaliburs back." I assured her.
[I know the three of you will get them back.] Griselda says. [It's just that… Be careful. I didn't want to send you to this mission, but the higher ranks decided to send the three of you.] Griselda added, I just sighed at her motherly actitude.
"Like I said, you don't have to worry. We are going to survive. No matter what." I assured her.
[Good. Then thats all, good luck.] After those words left her mouth, she turned off her earpiece… or whatever she was using.
I just sighed and put the earpiece on my pocket. Turning to everyone, specially Irina and Xenovia.
"I think you girls don't need an explanation about the mission." I stated making them nod their heads. I turn my gaze to Darius and Wolf.
"Are you guys coming with us?" I asked making both of them shook their heads.
"No, as far as I heard, this woman said that she would send only the three of you." Wolf pointed out. "And because of this…" Wolf trailed off, taking an small old book from his pocket. The diary he found in the cave. "… We need to know what is written in this diary. My allies died thanks to this diary I will not make their deaths in vain." He says with narrowed eyes making me nod my head.
"Understood, it was good working with you." I said as I held out my hand, ready to make a handshake.
He chuckled and grasped my hand. "Same here. Hope the next time we met you are still human." He says with his smirk still prescent making me chuckle.
"Same here."
Flashback Ends.
And after a few hours waiting for the jet, we finally got our ride, while Darius and Wolf decided to wait in the hive. You know they could come with us, they are going to freeze down there. But still they didn't care, maybe they need some time alone. I mean, they had lost three of their teammates.
I shook my head and returne my gaze to Irina and Xenovia, trying my best to hear their conversation. Yeah I know… I shouldn't invade their privacy, but curiosity got better from me.
"Understood." Xenovia says nodding her head in affirmation.
"Alright! Let's do this again, Xenovia-chan!" Irina says with a smile on her face. "When you can use the honorific, -san?" Irina asks.
…Seriously?
Xenovia narrowed her eyes, looking at the floor with a serious expression on her face, trying to find the correct answer. Finally she looks up meeting the gaze of Irina.
"You used it with adults and older girls, right?" Xenovia answered making Irina cheer happily.
"Exactly! Now, when you can-"
"We are going to an important mission and the two of you are trying to learn some honorifics?" I asked with an eyebrow raised, making the two girls turn around to look at me.
"But Ja-chan! We are going to my hometown! Kuoh! We need to learn them! Or else we are going to give a bad reputation to the Vatican!" Irina says.
"She's right Jarvan-senpai." Xenovia says making me sweatdrop at the honorific, 'senpai'.
"You should join us!" Irina says tapping the seat that is in the middle.
I sighed and turn around lying on my seat. I closed my eyes trying to take a nap, and ignoring both Xenovia and Irina who are trying to convince me to join in their lessons.
This is not going to end, right?
Finally after a few hours, we got out from the jet. Right now we are walking the streets of Kuoh, and it's night time. We are really tired even if I took an small nap in the jet, it wasn't enough for me. Of course Xenovia and Irina are in a worse shape, they looked like zombies walking…. And I don't like zombies.
"Were are we going again…?" Irina asks yawning cutely.
"Griselda told me that we should go to an hotel that is around here, the Vatican reserved us rooms for us to take a rest." I explained getting nods from both of them. Yeah Griselda is always like that, heck she saved some money in my credit card.
"Jarvan-senpai." Xenovia suddenly says making me sigh at the honorific, turning my head to look at the two tired exorcist, but my gaze was concentrated to Xenovia who is looking back at me.
"What is it?" I asked looking at Xenovia who narrowed her eyes.
"Do you know who attacked the Vatican?" Xenovia asks getting the attention of Irina who is looking at me now intently, while I just raised an eyebrow.
"… No, thats why I was trying to find out." I answered after a few seconds of silence. "Unfortunately, I don't know a lot about other members of Grigori… I will need more time to find who is the one that we are fighting." I added. I need to find who is the one behind all this destruction, if I somehow fail on getting information then I will have to talk with Griselda.
"… Do you think that we are going to survive?" Irina suddenly asks making me stop on my tracks. That made Xenovia and Irina stop as well, waiting for my answer.
I turned my gaze to the sidewalk with narrowed eyes. Are we going to make it? We don't know who we are fighting. The only thing we know is that he's powerful. Powerful enough to not only attack the Vatican, but the other churches as well. I actually don't care a lot about my life, I know the consecuences of joining the Vatican and working for the church… But what about Irina and Xenovia? I don't want to bring people that I care to the other side. And even less if my body gets reanimated thanks to Frostmourne. The last thing I want is to make Irina and Xenovia into Death Knights.
I shook my head and turn my gaze slowly upwards, watching the stars and the moon, trying to find a good answer.
I sighed and turned to look at Irina and Xenovia with a sad expression in my face. "… I-I don't know…" I answered. "We don't know who we are fighting… But I bet that he's powerful. He could probably wipe the floor with us." I stated making their eyes go wide. I hate to admit it… but probably we are going to die.
"S-So… what are you trying to say is that we are going to…" Irina trailed off, not wanting to end the sentence.
"Yes… Probably." I answered making them look up to me with wide eyes, shocked at my answer. I turn around with a small smile on my face. "Don't worry, I'll do my best to protect both of you. Like hell I will let my two best friends die in the hands of an Fallen Angel." I declared making Irina give an small smile and a blush while Xenovia glared at me with a small blush on her face.
"We are not a damnsel in distress, Senpai." Xenovia growled out, making me chuckle. I continued walking again, getting followed by my two friends.
"Alright alright, I was just saying, anyways let's go and find the-"
"No wait!" Irina suddenly says making me and Xenovia to stop and turn to Irina, who has her hands clasped on her mouth.
"What is it?" I asked with an eyebrow raised.
She turned to look at me and clasped her hands. "Can we please visit a good friend of mine?" Irina asks looking at me with her violet eyes.
"Why? We are here to complete a mission." Xenovia says looking at Irina with an eyebrow raised.
"Please! I haven't seen him since I was like five years old!" Irina exclaimed. "Trust me on this guys! He's a good friend!" Irina says not looking away from me and making the puppy eyes. "Pleaseee?" She pleaded.
I sigh and shook my head. "Fine, but only for ten minutes! Remember that we are here to finish a mission. Not to meet with childhood friends." I state making her cheer a little and nod her head.
"Trust me! He's a good person!" Irina says, grabbing my wrist and start pulling me, I turn to my left to see that Xenovia was getting pulled too.
'Maybe with this the two of them are going to be ready for the mission…' I thought with a mental sigh, ignoring the small squeaks of Irina.
"Here we are!" Irina exclaimed happily, looking at the building in front of us.
Finally after a few minutes of walking, we made our way to an small house, it was like the others but this one was special and had something inside that made me narrow my eyes.
A Devil.
Everytime we took an step closer to the house the power increased slightly. For some reason I wanted to summon my hammer and smash his head, but I can't this is Devil territory.
'Maybe it wasn't a bad idea after all…' I thought turning my gaze to the left, to see that Xenovia has her eyes narrowed too, sensing the Devil inside the house.
Who knows, Maybe it's this Rias Gremory, It could also be a servant of her. If it's Rias then, this is going to be more faster than I thought it would be. If it's a servant, then he's going to be a nice dog and tell her Master that we want to talk.
"Can you sense the Demonic Aura?" I asked both of my friends, getting two nods, but Irina nodded hesitantly.
"M-Maybe it's another Devil that is inside his house." Irina stammered.
"So your friend used one of their flyers and summoned a Devil?" I asked making her flinch.
"N-N-No! Maybe he has a friend that is a Devil…! But he doesn't know!" She says defending his 'good friend' making me sigh.
"We are not going to know until we see him in person." I said, finally standing in front of the door. Irina takes another step, and knocked the door slightly.
"Coming!" An unfamiliar mature voice says, after a few minutes of silence, I could hear small steps coming inside the house.
Finally the door is opened to show an woman probably the same age as Griselda, with brown hair and matching eyes.
The older woman tilted her head and looked at the three of us curiously. "Ah, hello there. Who might the three of you be?" She asks looking a the three of us curiously.
Irina smiled and waved at her. "Hi Mrs. Hyoudou, I am not sure you remember me but my name is Irina Shidou. I used to go to the same school with your son, Ise-chan." Irina says, pulling a photo of her with another kid with the same hair color as the older woman in front of us. Damn Irina looked like a boy when she was a kid.
The woman took the photo, after a few minutes of silence her eyes widened, and returned her gaze to Irina and then to the picture. Finally she looks up and squealed.
"Oh my god! Irina-chan! My god you have grown! I couldn't recognised you there! You certanly have become a beautiful young woman. Anyone would have mistaken you for a boy back then if they didn't know any better." She said making me chuckle, it seems that her excitement had take over her. She suddenly clasped her hands together and said. "And you bring some friends to! Ah! Where are my manners! Please come in!" She moved to the side, letting us entrance to her house, the demonic power is still on the house, but it doesn't belong to her. It's upstairs.
Taking a seat in the sofa with Xenovia in my right while Irina was on my left. I sigh and watched how she takes a seat on the chair in front of us.
"I'm sorry but I don't know still your names." She says with a small smile on her face making my eyes widen a little.
"My name is Xenovia." Xenovia introduced herself. Making Mrs. Hyoudou nod her head and making me raise an eyebrow.
I didn't know that Xenovia knew Japanese. Of course I know japanese, thanks to Dulio who took me to Japan and showed me their culture, but Xenovia? Maybe it has something to do with Griselda.
"My name Is Jarvan Menethil, pleasure meeting you, Mrs. Hyoudou." I said with an small smile on my face. Watching how the older woman in front of me was looking at me intently, making me a little nervous.
Finally she chuckled and turned her gaze to Irina with an small mirk on her face. "Oh my, I didn't know you liked blonde, tall and strong, Irina-chan." She teased making my eyes widen in shock.
"W-W-W-What?! N-No! Mrs. Hyoudou! H-H-He's not my b-boyfriend!" Irina stammered with a big blush on her face, I have to admit. I was blushing as well… in the corner of my eye, I could see Xenovia narrowing her eyes. Did something wrong happened?
The older woman laughed at her expression. "Oh my Irina! No need to be shy! I was like you when I was in your age…!" She continued her teasing, making my right eye twitch. "Ah…! It's beautiful to see the young people falling in love." She gushed clasping her hands together, I turn to my right to see Irina blushing madly, she looked at me shyly and quickly turned away. Covering her face with her hands, trying to hide her blush.
I coughed in my fist, trying to take my blush away, I could hear how the conversation between Irina and the older woman went, they were talking about her childhood, embarrassing stories, and other things that I decided to ignored, right now I was watching the stairs with narrowed eyes, I could feel the demonic power increasing each second. I was wrong though, it's not only one Devil. We have two Devils in this house.
Finally, after a few minutes I spotted two young people. The first one was a young man with brown hair and with light brown eyes, he looks like the same age of Xenovia and Irina, he was peering from the stairs. He looked like the kid from the picture but more older. He wore a school uniform, with white shirt and black trousers, underneath the shirt was a red- shirt.
Finally the other person was a young woman. She looked innocent she has European descent with blonde hair and big green eyes, and like the kid, she's wearing an school uniform. The way they are looking at us and their stance told me everything.
They are Devils. They know that we are exorcists.
"Ah! Look who's home! What's with the sour face? Issei, do you remember who is this?" The older woman says pointing to Irina.
The Devil now named, Issei scratched the back of his head and looked at Irina with narrowed eyes, trying to recognize her. After a few minutes he shrugged his shoulders.
"No I don't." He says making Irina looked at him with wide eyes.
"W-What?! How could you forget my face? Its me!" Irina says with a smile happy to see his friend in good state. Her mother sighed and pulled tho photo, showing it to the Devil who eyes widened in surprise.
"Whoa! Thats her?!" He jumped in surprise, looking at Irina with shock.
"I know right?! She looks so different! I mean if you hadn't known better, you woul've mistaken her for a boy and look at her now! She is gorgeous!" Mrs. Hyoudou complimented Irina making her blush at the comment.
"You must be joking!? I really did think she was a boy back then!" Issei says making Irina paled.
"Pfff!" I contained my laugher, getting a cute glare from her. Making me raise my hands to calm her down. "Kidding! You know, I like this guy!" I exclaimed pointing a finger to Ise making him raise an eyebrow. But I could feel that he was sending me a glare. "You ladies wouldn't mind if I talk with him in private, right?" I asked, getting curious looks from everyone.
"Uh… I don't think it would be a problem…" Mrs. Hyoudou trailed off.
"Awesome! Thanks!" I thanked her and make my way to Issei and pushed him back upstairs. Ignoring the blonde girl who is looking at Issei with concern.
"Whoa! Where are we going?!" Issei asks trying to get away from my grasp.
"What? We are the only guys here. Maybe we can talk about sports, cars, girls." I said with a grin on my face, finally standing in front of an opened door, probably where he sleeps. Entering inside the room, I turn around and closed the door. Making sure that no one would interrupt us.
"Alright, let's get to the-"
[Boost!] An unfamiliar voice yells making me my eyes shot open at the new voice. I quickly turn around just in time to see Issei rushing forwards with an red gauntlet with a green jewel in the middle.
I moved to the right just in time to dodge his attack, I quickly grab his arm and kneel him on the stomach, taking all the air from his lungs. Without wasting time I grab his neck and smashed his body into a wall, without taking my hand away from his neck.
"Well… I wanted to do this the easy way..." I started glaring at the struggling Devil. "… But you asked for the hard way." I finished, getting a glare from him. Trying to intimidate me…
Heh. Nice try.
"W-What do you want…?" Issei wheezed out trying to take some air.
I grunted and moved away from him, making him fall to the floor. I watched how he was coughing and massaging his neck. I take a seat on his bed, waiting for him to catch his breath.
"Well." I started cracking my neck a little. "I just wanted to talk." I answered getting a glare from him.
"Bullshit! If you wanted to talk, then why the hell did you attacked me?!" Issei asks angrily.
"Idiot, you started, if you could wait atleast for me to talk from the start. Then I wouldn't kick you ass the way I did." I pointed out. I trailed my eyes to his red dragonic-gauntlet, making my eyes widen a little.
'So he has one of the 13th Longinus… ' I thought watching the his Sacred Gear. 'Boosted Gear. Where the Welsh Dragon resides. In other words. He's the Sekiryuutei.' I thought turning my gaze back to Issei who finally stands up with his guard up.
"Well… speak then! What do you want?!" Issei demanded.
I narrowed my eyes. "Easy, I want to know if you are perhaps from the… Gremory Clan?" I asked making his eyes widen a little, but he quickly hides it with a glare.
"I don't know what are you talking about!" Issei yelled. I smirked, of course he's lying.
"So... you don't belong from any Clan, right?" I asked with my smirk still present watching how he nods his head.
Wrong Answer.
"Really? Oh well…" I said summoning my holy hammer, making him take a step back. "Then it wouldn't mind if I kill you here, right? Since you don't have a Master. I would make a favor to… what's her name…? Ah, yes. Rias. Gremory." I said slowly making sure my words get inside his head. I smirked more at his reaction, his eyes widened in horror.
I grasped my hammer with both hands, walking slowly to the 'Stray Devil' watching how he takes a fighting stance, trembling a little. Heh.
KNOCK! KNOCK!
"I-Ise-san are you okay?" An unfamiliar voice says concerned for his friend. Probably the girl with blonde hair.
Issei turns his head to look at the still locked door. "U-Uh… yeah! I'm fine! Why?!" Issei asks.
"Because your door is locked." The young girl pointed out. "A-Are you sure you are okay?" She asks again.
Even if she couldn't see it. He nodded his head. "Yeah I locked it because we are having a… private talk." He answered looking at me with the corner of his eyes.
"…Okay… If you need something, you know that I will always help you! N-No matter what!" She exclaimed. After a few seconds of silence, I could hear from the other side small steps getting every second more lower.
I sighed while shooking my head my hammer dissapearing from my hands, walking camly to the door ignoring the fact that he's armored with his Sacred Gear. Resting my hand in the knob, I slowly turn around to meet his glare.
"Look, I know that you are going to tell this to your master. I don't know which Clan you are, you can be either from Gremory or Sitri." I said making his eyes widen in surprise. "The point is, that I want you to deliver a message, to your master." I explained making him narrow his eyes.
"… What's the message?" Issei asks with narrowed eyes, not lowering his guard.
I turned my gaze back to the door, and opened it. "Tell her that, tomorrow I want to talk with her. In other words. I want to know where she is." I explained finally getting out of the room, and closing the door.
Sighing I made my way to the stairs, going back where the conversation is. I could hear still the people talking, of course probably Irina and the mother of Issei.
"Alright, it's time to go." I said getting the attention from everyone. Surprising, the blonde girl was now standing besides her mother. I think.
Irina sighed, sad that they have to go, while Xenovia nodded her head, they stand from their seats and walked to the door. But Irina turns around and bows to Issei mother.
"Thank you for letting us in." Irina says with a sad smile on her face.
Mrs. Hyoudou waved her hand. "It's was nothing Irina-chan! You have probably things to do. I hope I can see you again!" Mrs. Hyoudou says with a smile on her face.
I nodded my head and started to walk to the door, I opened it and let the girls get out first. Finally when Xenovia got out from the house I turned my head slightly to the right to see, Mrs Hyoudou waving at me, while the blonde girl was hiding behind her and finally, Ise who is looking at me with narrowed eyes.
I just smirked and shook my head and finally walked out from the house.
"YOU DID WHAT?!" Irina yelled shocked. Right now we are walking to the small hotel that Griselda told us about.
"I said that I threatened him with my hammer." I repeated, ignoring the shocked look from Irina.
"A-Are you crazy?! He's my childhood friend! You-"
"He was your childhood friend, Irina." I corrected her. "He's a Devil now. Our worst enemy." I interrupted her. "It's better if you start forgetting about him, he's a devil and you are a human who follows the will of God." I explained turning my head to look at her shocked expression. "What would happen if the Vatican knows about you being friendly with a Devil? You would turn into a Stray Exorcist. Just like Freed." I added, watching how she turns to look at the floor sadly.
I sighed and put a hand on her shoulder, making her look up to me again with sad eyes. "I know, the way I said it hurts. But it's the truth. We don't want to see our friend turning into an Stray Exorcist." I said making her eyes widen, she turns to look at Xenovia who nodded her head. Finally she smiled sadly glad that we care about her. Turning my gaze back to the front, I spotted the familiar building that Griselda described. I turned my head again to the two exorcists.
"There is the hotel. Let's go." I said getting nods from them.
After a few minutes of silence, we finally made our way inside the lobby of the hotel. Walking where the woman that is waving her hand at me with a small smile on her face.
"Welcome! Are you three here to stay for the night?" She says and I nodded my head.
"Yeah, actually… A woman called Griselda saved us a room from us." I stated making her eyes widen a little.
"Hmm. Hold on a second please." The woman says turning her gaze to the computer, trying to find our names.
"Can I have your names please?" She asks typing something in the computer.
"Xenovia Quarta, Irina Shidou and Jarvan Menethil." I said making her nod her head. I could feel the small glare from Xenovia hitting the back of my skull.
Deal with it.
Finally she turns to us with a small smile on her face. "Indeed, here are your names." She says taking a key from the cabinet and giving the key to me.
I turn my gaze slowly to the key. Only to see one key. One.
"Excuse me but..." I started making her turn to look at me. "I think uh… we are three people, we need two more." I said waving the key in front of her face.
She smiled sadly. "Ah yes, my apologies but we only have one room the other ones are occupied." She explained making my eyebrow twitch.
"Oh…" Was Irina only response.
"W-We are sharing bed then?" Xenovia asked stammering a little.
"I guess…" I said with a sigh and walk to the elevator. Getting followed by two exorcists. I looked down again to my Keys to see which number is our room.
Key Number: 300
"Alright… We are going to the third floor." I muttered pocketing the keys in my pocket. I pressed the botton to call the elevator, finally after a few minutes of awkward silence, we step inside the elevator. Waiting for the elevator to take us to the third floor of the building.
"Do you know where is going to be this… Rias Gremory?" Xenovia ask looking how the door closes, finally taking us upwards.
I shrugged my shoulders. "Don't know. But something tells me that is going to be… an interesting talk." I said with a small smirk.
"Yes. It's going to be since someone attacked my childhood friend." Irina says with a frown, still a little angry that I attacked him.
I groaned. "You don't get it, right? He started the damn fight! I just wanted to talk!" I exclaimed annoyed. Making her hum and turn away from me.
I rolled my eyes at her actitude. "Whatever, tomorrow we are going to find where Rias is hiding if we don't get any information about her." I explained making them nod.
TIN!
Finally, after some minutes the doors of the elevator shot open, taking us to our destination, without wasting time, I got out from the elevator and made my way to our room, with Xenovia and Irina behind me.
"Here it is…" I trailed off, trying to find the key that is somewhere in my pocket. Finally taking the key I insert them to the knob and opened the door slowly, watching with an eyebrow raised our room.
I wasn't expecting this to be honest… the room was really well made, the walls are painted into white color with some beautiful paintings adorning the walls, a lot of furnitures. But my eyes are looking to an special spot. The bed. A queen sieze bed.
'Well…' I thought with a sigh, I was hoping that the room would have two or atleast three beds for us- But it's only one.
"Um…" Irina tried to say something, but she just kept looking at the bed with a small blush.
"I-I think I will sleep on that chair." I said poinitng to the chair that is in the corner.
"No senpai, don't worry, I will sleep on the chair." Xenovia says making her way to the chair, but quickly I placed a hand on her shoulder stopping her on the tracks.
"Nah it's okay." I assured her with a small grin. "I'm not going to lie, I'm not going to get comfy, but it doesn't matter." I added watching how she nodded slowly. I turn my gaze to another door that it probably takes you to the bathroom. "So who's going to take a bath first?" I asked watching the two exorcists.
"I will!" Irina says rushing to the bathroom and opening the door with her bag. Before she could take an step inside the bathroom, she turns her head and send a small glare at me with a small blush on her cheeks. "N-No P-Peeking!" She warned me making my eyes widen a little. Before I could come up with something she closes the door, making me sigh.
I shook my head and turn my gaze to Xenovia who is taking a few swings with her Excalibur making me flinch a little if that sword makes contact with the floor or anything inside the room. Then we are doomed.
"Hey… don't you think thats a bad idea…?" I asked watching nerviously the woman who stops and turns her head to face me.
"Why?" She asks with an eyebrow raised.
"Your weapon can shatter the whole room, heck even the hotel." I pointed out making her turn to look at her sword with narrowed eyes. Finally she nods her head and wraps her sword again while I just take a seat on the chair.
"Do you know who is the one behind this?" Xenovia suddenly ask siting on her bad with her excalibur resting on a wall.
I shrug my shoulders. "Don't know yet, but like I said, he can be powerful." I explained. "If he succeed invading three of the most powerful churches. Then we are fighting somthing big." I said with narrowed eyes.
"Any ideas?" She asked trying to identify the one making all this catastrophe.
I looked at the floor, trying to remember the ones in charge in Grigori. I only remember The Governor, Azazel. Dammit… I have it on the tip of my tongue!
I'll be honest. I don't care a lot about Devils and Fallen Angels, the one that I'm worrying more is the Scourge. Who the hell knows what are they planning, since Kel'Thuzad finally knows about me. He probably sent someone to either capture me or kill me. I'm just risking the life of my friends…
I shook my head. 'It's not the time to think about this, Jarvan.' I scolded myself mentally. We have bigger problems right now. 'Alright… Azazel it's a big no, he only likes Sacred Gears. Another one could be… Baraqiel? He's probably like the right hand of Azazel. So I don't think so… the last person I have in mind could be…' I trailed off my eyes widening in shock.
"Of course...!" I muttered shocked.
"…Senpai? Are you okay?" Xenovia asks with an eyebrow raised looking at me with small hint of concern on her tone.
I turn my face to look at Xenovia. "I think I know who's the one behind this." I stated making her look up to me, her dark yellow eyes staring at my gray/green eyes.
"Who?" She finally asks after a few minutes of silence.
"Kokabiel." When my mouth left those words her eyes widened.
"Are you sure?" She asks. I nodded my head.
"Yes, he's the only one I know who would do something like that." I said turning my gaze to the window. "Also, if Dulio is right. The way he acts always saying that the Fallen Angels are the most powerful race. Then he's going to prove it." I explained.
"I don't get it." Xenovia says. "How he's going to prove that Fallen Angels are the most powerful race?" She asks.
Finally I turn to look at her with narrowed eyes. "Easy. He's going to start another war." I said simply.
Her eyes widened once more. "What?! Impossible!" She exclaime shocked.
"Indeed, he's going to use the power of the Excaliburs to start the war… but how?" I asked trying to find the answer.
CLUCK! CLUCK!
Something catched my attention, making me turn to look back at the window, to see a small bat…? Smashing his head on the window.
I sweatdropped and walked slowly to where the creature is. Opening the window, I watched how the bat starts flying around the room, and finally he or she stops in front of me, making me take a step back.
"Ummm hi?" I said watching the animal in front of me. And actually he/she has something in his/her small paws. I take it slowly and opened the letter, what I see makes my eyes widened, but then I chuckled.
"Tomorrow, meet me at the Private School Called 'Kuoh Academy.'
There we can negotiate… privately."
-Rias Gremory.
"Finally, some good news." I muttered. "We know where the Devils are." I added looking up and nodding to the bat…? "So you're not a bat after all, you are the familiar of Rias Gremory." I said with a small smirk, looking at the creature who is flying around the room "Alright then. Tell her that I accept." I said watching the creature fly away to the window, getting out from the room.
'Things are getting more interesting…' I thought saving the card in my pocket.
"Done!" A familiar voice says, making me turn around to see Irina wearing now a nightown covering her glamorous body.
… Great. I'm turning into a pervert now.
I sighed and grabbed my small bag and made my way to the bathroom. "Xenovia, explain her everything that we talked about." I asked finally ready to take a shower.
Tomorrow is the talk with the Devils. I hope nothing wrong happens.
"Wow he's handsome…"
"And strong…"
"Oh Please! Tell me he's going to be in this school!"
'Great…' I thought with a sigh. Right now we are outside the gates of this Private school, Irina and Xenovia are here with me, waiting patiently for the Devil Rias to appear. Unfortunately, our costomes brings a lot of attention… Japan is really weird.
"Where are they…" I groaned turning my gaze to a group of girls who are looking at me, they quickly turned away giggling, making my right eye twitch.
"We need to be patient, senpai." Xenovia says looking at the gates with narrowed eyes.
"Well, we have been here for three hours already…" Irina says, looking at the school with a smile. "Ah! This school is really beautiful!" She added with her smile growing more a little.
"Maybe we should return later." I said with narrowed eyes. "This people are making me nervous." I added watching the people who are looking at us, the girls are looking at me intently while the boys are glaring at me, some of them looking at Irina and Xenovia.
Seriously, the hell is wrong with this school?
"Excuse me." An unfamiliar voice says, making me turn my gaze to my right to see a bespectacled woman in her late teens with a slim figure with black hair in a bob cut style, her eyes are violet, and like everyone in this school she's wearing the school uniform.
She wasn't alone though, besides her was another woman, she's tall and like the other woman, she has glasses. She has long straight black hair that goes all the way down to her knees with split bangs, her eyes are light brown and of course she's wearing the school uniform.
Both of them have a blank expression, not showing any emotion.
And also, they are Devils.
"Yes?" I asked looking at both of them with an eyebrow raised, acting like I don't know they are Devils.
"Are you perhaps waiting for someone?" She asks adjusting her glasses, looking at me with narrowed eyes.
I nodded. "Indeed, I'm waiting for someone called, Rias Gremory." I said making her eyes widen just a little but enough for me to see it.
"I see, do you want me to take you there…?" She trailed off looking at me with an eyebrow raised.
"Jarvan." I simply said, pointing a finger to Xenovia. "Her name is Xenovia Quarta…" I said ignoring her glare and pointed to Irina. "Her name is Irina Shidou." I finished getting a nod from her.
"Don't you have a last name?" She asks looking at me intently, trying to see through my eyes.
"No." I lied making the two exorcists to look at me with an eyebrow raised. Let's just say that my last name is really known among the factions. If it's possible, I don't want them to know my true Identity, who knows if this generation of Devils know about the Lich King and the Scourge.
"…Alright then." She said after a few seconds of silence. "Please follow me. I will take you there." The woman walking to the gates, getting followed by her… probably sister. They looked the same though.
"Ah before we continue." She suddenly says stopping and turning around, bowing. "My name is Souna Shitori. I'm the President of the Student Council." She introduced herself. "And she's Tsubaki Shinra, the Vice President." She introduced her friend, while the taller woman, Tsubaki bowed her head.
They are not sisters after all.
Wait…
Heh. She's clever. I'll give her that.
"Hmm weird." I said following Souna and Tsubaki from behind while Irina and Xenovia are behind me.
"What is it…?" Souna asks turning her head slightly.
Looking around making sure that no one is around, I turn to look back at Souna with a smirk. "I haven't heard a Clan called 'Shitori'" I said making her stumble a little, while her Vice President looked at me with shock. "I think you mispelled your last name, it's Sitri." I added.
"How did you-"
"Know your enemy as you know thyself." I simply said with my smirk growing a little. I watched how she adjusted her glasses and turnd again to the front.
"I-I see." Was her only response, taking us out of the school and now we are making our way to an old building.
'Heh. Gotcha.' I thought with a grin turning my gaze back to theold building.
Where the Demonic aura is flowing intently.
Cold.
That was the atmosphere here in the Old building.
I was sitting in a sofa with Irina and Xenovia, I was in the middle. My eyes are right now to our Devils that they were kindly enough to invite us to their… Base of Operations we could say.
But there is a problem.
Like I said Devils. Not Devil.
In front of me was another sofa and a small table in the middle, there was a person sitting on the sofa, I have to admit though, she's really beautiful. She has white skin with blue-green eyes and a buxom figure. But the most noticeable part of her was of course, her long hair. It was Crimson red. Her hair going all the way down to her thighs, with a single hair strand standing on top of her head. She was watching us with arms crossed and a small smile on her face.
This is Rias Gremory. Heir of the Gremory Clan.
My eyes slowly trailed off behind her. I could see that there was the same kid… Issei I think and the blonde girl. But there was two more Devils here.
The first one was another beautiful young woman in her late teens probably the same age as me and Rias. She has long black hair tied with an orange ribbon, her ponytail reaching all the way down to her legs, and she also has the same color of eyes as Sona, violet. Like her master. She was smiling with a hand resting on her cheek, and watching the three of us intently, I don't know honestly if the smile is fake or not. But it really creepy.
The other Devil was a petite girl, probably around fifteen years old, she has white hair that has two long bangs going past her shoulders and several loose bangs hanging over her forehead. While the back has just a bob cut and with a black cat-shaped hair clip on both sides of her hair. Her eyes are hazel, but for some reason it reminds me of a cat. But just a little.
Ah yes. I forgot about another Devil who is not with the others, actually he's standing behind us, in a corner to be precise. I can feel his intense glare that it was going to our way. Of course, I ignored it.
I'm here to make a temporal peace. Not start a fight.
"It seems that you brought along your servant. Rias Gremory." I said looking at the servants with narrowed eyes.
She simply closed her eyes and make her smile grow a little more. "I hope you don't mind if they stay here, Exorcist-kun." She said still smiling.
I grunted. "It's fine. Let's get back to the point." I said coughing in my fist I look up again, ready to start the negotiation. "You see we are here because recently the holy-swords Excaliburs that were kept by the Catholic Church Headquater Vatican, Protestant Church, and Eastern Orthonox Church were stolen." I explained. "You see, in total we had six fragments of the Excalibur, but unfortunately, they had stolen three holy swords." I added making the red beauty raise an eyebrow.
"Are you trying to say that we took your precious swords?" She says making me shook my head.
This time Xenovia was the next one to speak. "No, the one who stolen the swords are the Fallen Angels." Xenovia says making their eyes widen a little.
"You sure about that?" Issei asks looking at us shocked.
Xenovia simply closed her eyes and held out her sword. "This one is an Excalibur Fragment, they are made from the True Excalibur. This weapon is mine, it's called the Excalibur Destruction." Xenovia says.
Irina raises her arm and showed her armband that is on her upper arm. "Mine is called Excalibur Mimic I can change its shape into anything I want so it's really useful for carying around, look!" Irina suddenly says watching how her armband starting to move and take the shape of a katana.
Rias nodded her head and turned to me, looking at me intently.
"What?" I asked with an eyebrow raised.
"Don't you have an Excalibur Fragment?" She asks.
I shook my head. "No I don't." Was my simple response watching how her smile grew a little more.
"Well, what would you like us to do?" Rias says looking at the three of us.
"Easy, we want you Devils stay completely out of it." Xenovia says bluntly, making her eyes widen a little. "This is between us and the Fallen Angels." Xenovia says. "Let's keep this simple shall we? We don't need the Devils from this town to intervine." She added.
Rias chuckled. "That sounds like an accusation." Rias says smirking a little. "Are you afraid that we would side with the Fallen Angels and keep you for maintaining the holy swords?" Rias says making Xenovia and Irina narrowed their eyes. While I just laughed.
"What's so funny?" Rias asks annoyed that I laughed at her statement.
"Ah, sorry it was a good joke you've got there." I said making her narrow her eyes dangerously. "We are telling you this because, we don't want to return your remainings to your brother who is one of the Maous, Lucifer, right?" I said making her glare at me, I simply watched how her eyes tuened from blue green to red, and also increasing her demonic aura.
Heh. Spooky.
"Also, we know that for Devils a holy sword is a detestable thing." Xenovia suddenly says, returning the smirk. "Wouldn't that make more sense for you not support the Fallen Angel?" She says watching how Rias was getting more angry, increasing her demonic aura.
"And, if thats true then we wouldn't have no choice but to completely annihilate you. Even if you are the little sister of a Maou." Xenovia says, no hint of fear on her voice.
"… If you know that I am the sister of a Maou, then it means that you have a lot of connections with the higher-ups in the Church..." Rias says, not looking away from me. Huh. She's smart, I'll giver her that. "… Then I will say it. We will not form an alliance with the Fallen Angels. In the name of Gremory house. I will not do something that would stain the name of our Maou!" Rias says proudly.
Xenovia laughed a little. "It's enough for me just to be able to hear that. I was only relaying the thoughts of the headquaters." Xenovia says bowing her head a little. "I honestly didn't think thel little sister of Lucifer would really be that stupid." Xenovia says making me Rias raise an eyebrow, she doen't know if to take that as a compliment or an insult.
"… Good to know. Then I hope you also understand that I would not provide aid to your side either." Rias says making Xenovia nod her head.
"Of course. I trust that we will provail if you promise not to interfere with anything we do in this town." Xenovia says.
Rias simply smiled and closed her eyes. "You have my word on that."
"Well, glad we could solve this…" I said standing up from my seat, stretching my arms. "We will not take more of your time." I said nodding my head, and turning to Irina who is ready to walk away.
"Would you like some tea before you go?" Rias asks making the three of us shook our heads.
"No thanks. We are not to make some friends with Devils." Xenovia says.
"Also, we have an important mission to do." I added making my two friends nod their heads, finally walking towards the exit.
'Well… that wen't better than I expected.' I thought with a sigh.
"I was wondering if visiting the house of Issei Hyoudou would lead us to you." Xenovia suddenly says making both Irina and I stop on our tracks and turn around to see Xenovia in fact talking to the blonde girl.
"Excuse me?" The blonde girl asks shyly.
"…Aren't you Asia Argento?" Xenovia suddenly asks making my eyes shot open. I turn quickly my gaze to the blonde girl to see if Xenovia was saying the truth.
"I um… yes." The blonde girl now named Asia Argento says making my eyes widen more. But I quickly shook it and turned my gaze to Xenovia. What is she trying to do?
"… It makes sense that I would run into a witch in a place like this." Xenovia says making Asia to tremble a little at the word 'witch.'
"Oh my goodness it is you! You are the former Holy Maiden who became a witch!" Irina exclaimed looking at Asia with surprise. "I heard you were vanished because you have the powers to heal Fallen Angels and Devils and in one time you actually used it! You must be pretty strong!" Irina exclaimed, I turn my gaze to Asia who is looking at the floor, her body trembling more faster.
"I didn't know you actually become a Devil yourself." Irina added not looking away from Asia.
"Ummmmm…. I… I… guess so…" Asia trailed off. It seems that she doesn't know how to react.
"Are you okay?" Issei asks, looking at Asia Argento with concern.
"Of course she's not okay, she went for being a saint into a Devil. You fell to the lowest place you could." Xenovia says coldly.
"Thats enough!" Issei suddenly yells, taking a step forward ready to fight Xenovia, only to be stopped by the petite girl. "Why don't you take that crap and get out from here?!" Isse yelled, glaring at Xenovia.
"… You're not helping, Ise." The petite girl says with a monotone voice.
Of course, Xenovia ignored him. "Do you still believe on our God, Asia?" Xenovia asks looking at Asia with narrowed eyes. Maybe I should-
"Don't be silly Xenovia-chan! She's in Devil stuff, she's over." Irina says looking at Xenovia with an amused expression.
"Alright you two, we need to go. Now." I said but of course, they decided to ignore me.
"No, I can smell the 'belief from her." Xenovia responded with narrowing more her eyes. "It might be an abstract way of saying it. But I'm sensitive to these things. There are people who betray the teachings and still have guilt within them because they couldn't forget the teachings. I can feel something similar coming from her."
Irina turned her gaze to Asia. ""R-Really? Is it true Asia?" She asked the former nun. "Asia-san, do you still believe in our God even if you have turned into a Devil?"
Asia looked at the floor with a sad expression. " Y-Yes…" Asia answered making me raise an eyebrow. "… I just can't put it aside. I believed in it for my whole life…"
Well… this is… actually quite shocking. For a Devil to believe in God.
Xenovia started to take the cloth away from her weapon, making my eyes widen at her actions. "Xenovia… Don't do this…" I warned, I mean, we've just finished this negotiation. Now we are starting a warfare inside this place.
She took an step forward, her sword at her side. "Is that so. Then you should allow us to execute you in this instant." Xenovia says making Asia's eyes widen in horror.
Xenovia started to walk where Asia is her sword ready. "If it's now, then I cant cut you in the name of God. Even if you have sin, our God will-"
BAAM!
I slammed my hammer on the floor, making an small hole on the floor and stoping Xenovia on her tracks.
"Ja-chan…" Irina whispered shocked at my action.
I look slowly to the right, to see Xenovia looking at me with shock.
"Stop. Now." I growled out. We don't have time for this crap, there's a Fallen Angel who wants to start a war.
Xenovia gritted her teeths and took a step back. Looking at me with a glare. Probably looking at me with betrayal.
I slowly take my hammer from the hole I just made and turn my gaze to the Devils, to see them with a shocked expression at my sudden action.
"…That hammer…" Rias whispered enough for me to hear it making me narrow my eyes.
'Great I just showed my true identity…' I thought with a sigh. Making my weapon dissapear.
"My apologies for my friend's action and about the holw." I said with a small bow. "We will take our leave immediatly." I added turning around ready to-
"Hold on a second." An unfamiliar voice says making me groan.
"Now what?" I asked annoyed, turning where the voice came from. It was actually for the guy who was in the corner from the room. Now I could have a better look of him. He looked like the same age of Xenovia and Irina, he has blonde hair with grey eyes. His eyes glaring to the three of us.
Walking slowly towards us. Carrying a sword. I can see his killing intent towards us.
"Who are you?" Xenovia demanded, grabbing the sword with both hands.
The blonde guy smirked. "I'm your senpai. Though I was apparently a failure." When his mouth left those words, a lot of swords appeared in the Old building. "I challange the three of you in a duel!" He says pointing his sword towards us.
"I'll pass." I said making his eyes widen in surprise, but he quickly shook it and send a glare.
"I wasn't asking." He growled out. Making me raise an eyebrow at his actitude.
"I accept." Xenovia says with narrowed eyes, making me sigh.
"If Xenovia-chan fights, then I will help her!" Irina says with determination. Making me sigh again.
"You know what? You two fight if you want, I'll just wait outside." I said tiredly, walking out from the room ignoring the blondie demands.
P.O.V ?
"YOU IMBECILE! YOU HAD ONLY ONE JOB! AND YOU FAILED!" I screamed angrily, slapping his huge hand away from my face, making him drop the flowers. "I ASKED YOU FOR MUDSNOUT BLOSSOMS! NOT SOME STUPID FLOWERS!" I screamed making the Abomination flinch at my outburst.
"M-ME SORRY! IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT! I-
"I DON'T CARE! JUST BRING ME THE BLOSSOMS OR ELSE I'LL TURN YOU INTO FROSTBROOD FOOD!" I threatened watching the now Abomination that is whimpering.
"UWAH! ME SAD!" The abomination yelled crying and running away from me, finally getting out from the laboratory.
"AAARG!" I roared angrily, smashing my fists on the table in front of me, making small flasks fall to the floor, watching how my flask turned into small fragments of glass. Thankfully, there wasn't inside those flasks or else I would be more angry.
"Why I have such useless creatures?!" I asked looking down at the books scattered around the table, they of course have ingredients to make powerful and deadly potions. "Can't Kel'Thuzad give me somone with a brain?!" I exclaimed.
"You know, thats really offensive." A familiar voice says, making me turn my head slightly to the right, to see in the darkest place of the laboratory two blue shining eyes staring at me.
I hummed and shook my head, turning back at the table. "You are an exception. For now." I said reading the books, trying to find an easy way to make this potion.
"What are you working on anyways?" The Death Knight asks, I could hear his boots echoing around the room. "You know, you should had joined the small assembly that Kel'Thuzad made." He added stopping besides me looking at the books curiously.
I grunted. "No you are wrong there, I could go of course but they would only look at me like the assistant of him." I said with venom in the last part, making the Death Knight chuckle.
"If you keep talking like that, you'll make Putricide sad." The Death Knight says making me turn to look at him with narrowed eyes, he has paled skin and long white hair that reaches to his pectoral. He's a Blood Elf. An interesting race. They are actually High Elves, but they changed their name to Blood Elf referencing both blood of their many brethren who fell during the invasion of the Scourge on their city, and of course becuase their loyal lineage.
"Do I look that I care?" I growled out, making him raise his hands trying to calm me.
"Whoa! I don't want to see that side of yours." The Death Knight says making me nod my head.
"Good choice." I said turning back to the table, grabbing a flask with some purple liquid inside. "Answering your question, I'm making a new potion." I answered, pouring some orange liquid from another frask. After the third drip, I moved saway the orange flask, and watched intently how the liquid was turning from purple to dark blue.
"… I know you are making a potion, I want to know what type of potion." He asks grabbing one of the books and reading a page.
I chuckle. "I'm making a potion to turn the living into part of the Scourge." I answered shaking a little the flask, watching how the liquid started to bubble up.
"No offense, but we know how to turn humans into Ghouls." The Death knight says, making me chuckle softly.
"Ah, not that type of undead." I said putting the flask on the table, turning to look at the confused Death Knight. "I was talking about how to turn humans into Death Knights!" I exclaimed proudly.
"… Thats impossible. The only ones who can turn a human into a Death Knight are the Val'Kyr, the Lich King and finally Kel'Thuzad." He explains putting the book back on the table-
"Not anymore! I will be the next one to create the new generation of Death Knights!" I shouted proudly.
"If you say so." Was his only response. "Why do you want to create more Death Knights anyways? That should be the job of the Val'Kyrs anyways."
I narrowed my eyes. "What Val'Kyr? I haven't seen one for millenias!" I said annoyed. "Don't you ge it? The Val'Kyrs are getting close to extintion! When that happens, the we can't create more Death Knights. The most important soldier from the Scourge!" I exclaimed.
"Well, we can get more." He suggested shrugging his shoulder.
I sighed and shook my head. "You are not the most smart Death Knight, right?" I asked making him look at me with a n eyebro raised. "You think that Val'Kyrs fall from trees…? It's not easy to get a Val'Kyr. In fact, Val'Kyr are Valkyries, and to get a Valkyrie you need to get one from Asgard! Where the God of Asgard resides!" I explained turning to look at the Death Knight. "Now you understand the situation that we are involved right now?" I asked getting a slow nod from him.
"I understand now. But to make that it would take you millenias." The Death Knight says. "Since the only way to make a Death Knight, is through Black Magic, not potions." He added watching the flasks curiously.
"Then it's a challange that I would gladly accept." I said, grabbing the flask that has the dark blue liquid, putting it in on top of a tripod, while putting belot the tripod an bunser burner, turning it on I watched how the fire was turning from orange, and finally into blue.
"Why do you need Mudsnout Blossoms then? I don't think that would be useful into your potion." The Bloo Elf asks making me laugh.
"You're really observant. I'll give you that." I said turning to look at the Death Knight.
"Tell me. Have you heard about my ultimate creation…?" I asked watching how the Undead Blood Elf raises an eyebrow.
"No I didn't." He answered making me smirk behind my helmet.
"Have you ever heard about the New Plague?"
Phew finally! Sorry again for updating the chapter so damn late! Now, who the hell is this mysterious character?! If you know then put it on a review! I mean I think I made it too easy… (if you had played wow of course.) if you want a hint, in the lore of WoW he wasn't a member of the Scourge. Also, the DK Blood Elf is anohter character if you know then you are awesome! And probably a mind blown right in the way too! Also! I took the fight betwen Xenovia and Irina vs Issei and Kiba, I mean we know who's going to win and also we know that If Jarvan fights Kiba, he's going to turn him into dust.
Now, time for the reviews!
Domea- Thanks for your kind words! And you are right you know, she can be a good harem choice! It seems that Jarvan is going to turn into a necrophiliac lol! Cheers!
Guest- Indeed my child, all the factions shall pay for their sins…! Just remember this words: There must always be a Lich King…! Cheers! Hope you enjoyed the chapter!
Yaro- Thanks for your review! Glad you liked the chapter so far! I see your choices are really good ones! I'll see if I can what I can do with them! Cheers!
Frank- Glad you liked the chapter! Well, Jarvan doesn't fear his powers. He just hates it. But it's not really different to be honest. I'll see what I can do to make her a member of his harem! Cheers!
LL- Ahahahaha…! Not only Diodora my friend, all the characters I don't like! Heck I even have a list! Yeah, Kuroka could work too. But about using Kuroka as her messenger for Ophis, Jarvan wouldn't like that. He doesn't want to bring a lot of attention! Asia….hmmm. Indeed, there aren't a lot of AsiaxOC… but there's a small problem. I don't like Asia lol. So I don't think that would work…:( But who knows! Maybe I will change my mind in the future! Cheers!
Withdrawnmadness000- Welp, I can't see a flashback for him in a mission that involves Asgard hahaha! But…! I remembered something that probably would make her fell in love with him. So yeah lucky bastard! She's on his harem. And Kuroka too. He wants to bear the child of someone strong, and since he's descendant of Arthas Menethil a.k.a The Lich King… I think you understand! Anyways hope you liked the chapter! Cheers!
Master of Dragons God- Glad you liked the chapter! Hope you like this one! Cheers!
Ragna- Hmmm I'll see what I can do! Also, yes Shadowmourne is going to appear in the story, when? You'll have to wait! Hope you liked the chapter! Cheers!
Drown79- Glad you liked the chapter so far! And I will answer your question. Yes the Forsaken exists in the fanfic, we just need to wait for them to make an appearance, Sylvanas can work like an interesting pairing for the harem. Since they share the same goals. Destroy the Scourge. Hope you liked the chapter! Cheers!
Van- Glad you liked it so far man! Cheers!
Danielcabeza59- Hmm thats true, but it would be difficult since Griselda is not going to appear a lot in the fanfic, but I'll see what I can do! Don't worry! Like hell I'm going to add the red ape in his harem! HAHAHA! Cheers man! Hope you enjoyed the chapter!
Well since, we didn't see a new undead (of course except for the Blood Elf Death Knight and the other undead.) I can't put an ScourgePedia, here I have the harem by the way!
Jarvan Harem.
1 Irina
2 Xenovia
3 Sylvanas (Necrophilia where?!)
4 Kuroka
5 Rossewiesse
6 ?
7 Bonus!
Welp this ones I have so far! I'm probably adding Akeno and Koneko and who knows maybe another one! (Probably Serafall… hehehe) Anyways! Remember if you know who the hell is the mysterious Oc then review it! I want to see if you really know about the lore of WoW :P! Hope you guys enjoyed the chapter see you in the next episode!
-Peace!
