Chapter 12

Years flew by since the incident with Vasco Strada.

Through many different trials and tribulations, Naota and the others had formed quite a name for themselves, accomplishing many different achievements.

During that time, they had all gone through a good few things.

Naota himself had grown stronger as had the others.

Rias had also gained new peerage members, a Knight and a Bishop.

Along with Akeno, Naota was sure that they'd be on the way to gaining a good deal of strength.

Naota's group hadn't grown, though he did have a few potential candidates that he was considering.

In the dead of night, with the sun going to rise within a few hours, a young man steps out onto a field that was filled with numerous beings.

Devils in particular.

Counting in over one hundred.

"S-Shit!"

"They sent him?!"

"That's not fair! Damn it, we asked for Sirzechs!"

"This little punk, I'm going to bury him!"

The Devils yelled their rejections at the youth, who showed a wicked smile as a response.

The young man who stepped onto the battlefield, was Naota.

"My, oh my, look Vali-chan. Seems like someone's been amassing a little group here. And they wish to kill us."

Naota said, his eyes drifting over to his Queen beside him.

The young man had grown since the days of his childhood. He now was a teenager that had a lean yet toned and muscular body, his facial features having become more handsome and his hair has grown out with it resting a little above the nape of his neck, his holy spear laid on his shoulder.

When the spear was shown to them, the Devils all began to feel fear creep into their very beings. They shook with worry, they looked as if they were about to pass out. The spear drew out fear that they didn't even know that they had.

Standing beside him, Vali, his Queen, had also grown into that of a mature young woman, possessing a rather curvaceous figure, and second largest bust in the group, right after Kuroka. Her hair had also grown out a little more, going past neck level, but not much beyond that.

"Hmm, so these are the pests the Underworld were worried about? I can't sense anything above High Class. And they wish to kill Sirzechs? Seems like people here are severally underestimating a few people."

Naota gave amused eyes.

"I'm sorry Vali-chan, seems like this isn't going to be satisfying?"

Vali glances at her King, and more specifically his eyes, so she moved closer, and allowed her hand to rest behind him.

"Its fine, we'll have to find other ways to entertain our desires."

Understanding what she meant, Naota chuckled.

"Well, I suppose we should wrap this up? Should I do the honours? Or do you wish too?"

"Might as well do it together, lets finish this."

Naota didn't have a problem with that, and raised his spear to the sky.

When he did, blades of light began to erupt from the spear. The light blades hovered in the air, as Naota twirled his spear towards the enemy.

As he did, Vali coated her hand in a thick layer of demonic power that possessed a silvery aura.

"Yeah, lets do it!"

Naota twirled his spear, then thrust it towards the Devils.

When he did, the light blades all converged on the Devils, and began piercing through them in big numbers, skewering them and causing their lives to be extinguished. Adding to that, Naota released large torrent of lights that managed to slip through the onslaught of light blades, slamming into them and causing their bodies to bleed massively.

While doing so, Vali spread her arms, and unleashed violent destructive demonic waves. They moved fast and precise, the bullets came out like a rapid firing gun, and slammed, blasting chunks out of the Devils.

The attacks happened so fast, most of the Devils barely could react and were finished off in moments.

The ones that escaped the initial attacks, were swiftly dealt with by Naota's light torrents that ended the fight.

"Aah, and I thought we'd be fighting some strong ones tonight. I suppose even though they weren't that strong, it was a good reason for us to spend sometime together, Vali-chan."

Vali gave a somewhat amused look to the young man.

"Yes, that's also a good reason. Though, I'd much prefer if we went to bed now."

Not one to sugar coat what she desired, Vali said it directly to Naota, who gave intrigued eyes in return.

"My, Vali-chan. It seems you've become quite excited."

"I'm not Kuroka, or Akeno, but I enjoy when we come together." Vali leaned closer, and caught his lips with her own, pulling him closer with her hands going around his waist, in turn Naota placed a hand upon her face. "Besides, I became your girlfriend first."

"Fufu, that's true. So, Vali-chan. Wanna head on home?"

"Yeah, lets go. Also, I'm sure those others will interfere, but I'm first."

Vali said it as a finality, Naota didn't argue as he was quite happy to go along with that, so Vali took his hand and together, the pair made their way back home to enjoy sometime together.

Later on, after the sun had finally come up in the sky, Rias was sat in the shared home between herself, Akeno, Naota's peerage along with the young man himself, Sona, and Serafall along with Gabriel whenever they could appear.

The home was rather large to accommodate so many people. Having layers even underground. Even Rias didn't know all of the mysteries of the house, and she had been there since its creation. She was sure that people had placed hidden secrets in the home, and she always liked discovering new and interesting things.

She was looking around, noticing a few missing faces.

One being her Queen and best friend Akeno.

She happened to see Sona going towards the kitchen, so she called out to her.

"Sona, you haven't seen Akeno this morning have you?"

Sona stopped in her tracks, shaking her head as she turned slightly towards Rias.

"Not since I saw her going towards Naota-kun's room, but that was over an hour ago. Hmm, come to think of it, a few others are absent this morning…"

Rias furrowed her brows.

Then her eyebrows knitted together with some cute pout appearing on her lips.

So she quickly said "Thanks Sona!" and dashed off upstairs.

Sona looked at the place Rias went, then shrugged "I guess she's having that time with her Queen again." and went to go and eat her breakfast.

Rias hurried up the stairs, and went towards Naota's room.

Her hand went to the door handle, but then paused, and decided to knock instead.

She allowed her knuckles to tap on the door a few times, waiting for an answer.

[Ara Buchou, come inside~]

It was the sweet voice of Akeno.

Rias's lips continued to pout, believing she knew what was going on.

So she opened the door, and went into the rather large room.

Her eyes scanned for the large bed that could fit a good few people on it, and saw Akeno straddling Naota's hips who laid flat on his back.

Alongside Naota, laid to his right, was Vali, who kept her lips and his own tangled together, Kuroka and Koneko (the name Shirone went by mostly now) laid on the other side of Naota, Kuroka's lips pressed against his neck and left little nibbles across his skin, while Koneko hugged her Senpai tightly.

Akeno giggled when seeing Rias looking a mixture of desire and annoyance.

"Ara Buchou, what's wrong? Did you come to join in on the fun~?"

Rias narrowed her brows at Akeno.

"Akeno...to do such things with my fiancee all of a sudden..."

"Isn't it fine to be affectionate? I am also apart of Naota-kun's harem, and doing these things is quite fun~"

Akeno answered back, Rias frowned.

"Even then, we agreed to do such things together!"

"Hmm, but you also had time with Naota-kun last night alone, didn't you?"

Rias blushed brightly, as Ravel came out from underneath the sheets along with Elmenhilde, bewildering Rias.

Ravel's eyes met with the red heads, who in turn giggled awkwardly, while Elmenhilde laid her head upon Naota's chest.

"Rias-sama, I didn't see you there~"

As she said it, Vali broke lips with Naota, and moved from her lying down position, towards Naota's head, and held it close to her chest as she sat up enough so her back pressed against the headboard.

"If you're joining, hurry. Otherwise, close the door."

Vali expressed to Rias, who blushed even harder.

But then she gained a determined face, and began taking off her shirt to join the others.

Naota blinked and then chuckled "Rias-chan, looks like you're excited all of a sudden~" causing Rias to show a cute smile.

"Well, if it is time with you, then I do become rather excited..."

Rias closed the door, and moved towards Naota, possessing a seductive look on her face.

She fully took off her shirt, and following her bra, beginning to lay next to the young man…

A small time later, everyone in the house was downstairs eating breakfast.

Koneko sat on Naota's lap, along with Elmenhilde, though Koneko didn't look pleased about it, as they discussed various topics.

"Ooh yes, Rias-sama, Sona-sama." Ravel began, gaining their attention. "Your groups may feel Fallen Angels come to the town in the next day or so. Azazel-sama had a discussion with us, and it seems they wish to monitor a few Sacred Gear wielders within the town. Its okay, right?"

"As long as they don't cause trouble, I think it will be fine."

Sona finished off, as Rias nods along with that.

Vali in turn glances towards Naota, and then towards the two Pure Blooded Devil Kings in the room.

Understanding what she was wishing for, he began speaking.

"By the way, have either of you scouted out anyone for your peerage lately Sona-chan? Rias-chan?"

"I do have a potential placement for a Knight." Rias began, seeing Naota smiling serenely. "How about you?"

"Well, Ravel-chan and I do have some potentials. But, there is someone…" Naota glanced at Vali, who took some of her breakfast into her mouth, slowly chewing it, so he continued. "...that I think does have a good deal of potential. I'd take her into my peerage, but, well…" His eyes went to Vali once more, who glanced at him with furrowing brows. "...one Heavenly Dragon is enough for me."

Sona and Rias paused when hearing that.

"Heavenly Dragon? So, its that girl…"

Sona mused, Rias leaned forward.

"Boosted Gear, to think it would be here. Then again, it could be anywhere I suppose."

Naota inclines his neck.

"Indeed, quite buried within her since its not awakened and her not being involved with the supernatural world in her family's history as far as I'm aware, but she does have it. Isane Hyoudou, a very...fascinating girl for sure. Its quite an interesting situation. However, Vali-chan had a reaction the other day, didn't you Vali-chan?"

"For a moment, Albion felt Ddraig's presence, and seemingly had a strange reaction. As it happened, she looked at me for no reason, and looked a bit dazed. I'm assuming she also felt it as well."

Vali mused, Rias rubbed her chin.

"Isane Hyoudou, as you say, she is fascinating. Quite the pervert though, correct?"

"She spies on Nao-kun. Hehe, I like her nyaaa~ She's totally harem material, the girls got her priorities straight, I respect that~ Plus, she's cute and she's also nice, I'm friends with her~"

Kuroka giggles out, Koneko lets out a breath.

"That's because you talk about Nao-senpai's manhood with her, and different...positions."

Kuroka snickers at the slightly embarrassed look on Koneko's face.

"She's a lovely girl Shirone nyaaa~ Give her a chance~"

Koneko shakes her head at her sister.

"I'm glad our Queen has vetoed her from joining our group."

Naota gave bemused eyes to Koneko, Sona looked perplexed.

"Vetoed? But having two Heavenly Dragons would be rather strong…"

"I also thought that." Naota mused, glancing at Vali, who in turn glanced at him. "But, upon further thought, its really best if the Heavenly Dragons are on different teams, and gives them chances to grow in unique ways. Besides, I've got my adorable Vali-chan, I only need one cute Heavenly Dragon in the group~ Though I do find Isane-chan to be quite the fascinating girl, I'd imagine we'd have many fun situations occur if she's around~"

Naota finished off, Rias was amused as she saw Vali nod a single time.

It seemed to her that Vali wasn't so thrilled about having Isane on the group, yet wished for Isane to become apart of the supernatural world, and become strong so they could have a fight against one another, that's the impression she got anyway.

"I see, so you wish for one of us to reincarnate her?"

Naota shrugged.

"Well, its something that could be possible, depending on what happens with her, and if she would desire to become such a being. Its a dilemma for sure. Should we bring her into the supernatural world? Is it right to introduce her to our world? She's right now an innocent girl."

"I wouldn't say innocent exactly…"

Elmenhilde murmured, Ravel lightly laughs.

"In the sense that she is innocent to the world of supernatural beings. Its as Naota-sama said, would it be fair to even try to bring her into our world? Her entire life has been rather human, now we're thinking of it being something other than human. It wouldn't be right on us, would it? As a Dragon as well, she'd be gathering good, and bad people towards her. Vali-sama likes it, but would she? Hmm, its hard to think about being normal human one day, then suddenly thrust into a world she didn't even know the next."

Naota nods at what Ravel said.

"I'm only suggesting it, in the event she somehow finds out about the supernatural. Right now I'm of a similar opinion as Ravel-chan. But there are chances if we sensed it, and Azazel also knows about it through his connections, then others in the future could know, and she should at least be aware to protect herself."

Sona hums for a few moments.

"Indeed, I can see the dilemma. To be honest, I'm not sure if I have the pieces to reincarnate a Heavenly Dragon Sacred Gear user. Rias, you have all of your Pawns free, correct?"

"I do, and having a Heavenly Dragon...but, I also have a similar dilemma to you all. Involving someone who isn't supernatural already...but, it couldn't hurt at least speaking with her, and seeing what her general thoughts are."

Naota thought that was a good way to go about it.

"Yes, that's a good idea~ She's a funny girl, she definitely doesn't hold back with her desires. She's told me on multiple occasions that she likes certain parts of the male body~"

"She could be my greatest asset, if she's a girl with her desires so high, then as a Devil, her imagination would be wild…"

Rias mused aloud, while Sona slowly nods her head.

The breakfast continued on, and like any other morning, they talked about random topics. Ranging from serious, to simply the mundane, but that was the best part for Naota. He really did enjoy the times that he got to relax with those that he cares for and adores.

Meanwhile, a depressed Raynare, sat within an abandoned church.

Her lonely eyes looked over the others that were with her. A man wearing a fedora named Dohnaseek, a blue long haired woman wearing a large coat and a mini skirt named Kalawarner along with Raynare's least favourite, Mittelt.

Mittelt was eating brownies, Kalawarner was brushing her long hair, while Dohnaseek wrung his hands together, looking excited and determined at the same time.

"Alright…" Raynare began, gaining their attention. "First of all I need to know something." Raynare's unforgiving eyes went to Mittelt. "Mittelt, why did you follow us here? Who gave you permission to follow us after what happened last time?"

Mittelt stiffened, noticing the anger fuelled eyes burning into her from Raynare.

Kalawarner gave an uncaring look, seeing Mittelt slowly eating a brownie.

"Azazel-sama said so. He said that its best if she's here."

Raynare scowled.

"Mittelt."

"Y-Yes?"

Raynare took in a deep harsh breath.

"Could you make yourself useful and go to get me a muffin? Chocolate chip for me, and also, could you get me some milk as well? I wish to wash it down. Ooh yes, also ask the others if they want something." Raynare saw Mittelt looking unsure. "Mittelt, I'm speaking to you here. Are you listening? Or are you ignoring me like always?"

Kalawarner rolled her eyes playfully, Dohnaseek didn't care either way and decided to stay out of the conversation, Mittelt pursed her lips.

"Erm...but, I thought that we were about to have an official meeting. Wouldn't I miss it if I was getting you a muffin?"

"So, are you telling me, you're not going to be getting me my muffin? Then again, you're always eating my muffin so I shouldn't be surprised by this."

Kalawarner cracked up, thinking "Mittelt eats Raynare's muffin~ At least she's not bluffin with her muffin~" not convinced Raynare did, but did keep snickering to herself, while Raynare scornfully glared at Mittelt.

Mittelt cringed, seeing the angered eyes upon her from her leader.

She didn't know why Raynare was doing that, but she wished to get on with the meeting, so that's what she began to do.

"A-Anyway, I'm here to support you...b-because we're going after the girl named Isane Hyoudou, right? W-We are to observe this girl and to, to make her not go crazy o-or something with her Sacred Gear? A-And others as well?"

Raynare sighed deeply, her eyes taking a notable turn.

"Now, we are in the town of that True Longinus user. He...He is a Devil, that can destroy us. We've entered the danger zone here people." Raynare gave dramatic eyes, and a face to match. "So, don't screw around, don't make enemies with the scary half Devil boy, or his scary lovers, and keep calm. I'm talking about you Dohnaseek!"

Dohnaseek jumped when Raynare shot a spear of light by his feet.

He recovered swiftly, seeing dangerous eyes of Raynare.

"Wait, why are you saying that to me?! I'm a completely calm person!"

Snapping at Raynare, she wasn't pleased, and began to glare hard.

"Because you are the most stupid one of us who loves picking fights, and causing trouble in general, even more so than Mittelt and her weird love for Kokabiel." Mittelt blinked with worry as Raynare continued. "Especially when it comes to people stronger than you. And he's a Devil, you're an idiot that would go after them because you think that Fallen Angels should be on top or whatever. So listen to me right now...do not go after him you little freak! Nor his peerage! Or anyone associated with him, which includes Gremory and Sitri! We don't want to cause problems with him and his group! We've got plans and I can't have you ruin them because you decided to get murder happy and try something you clearly couldn't ever do like fighting him!"

Kalawarner cracked up "Murder happy~" as Dohnaseek tightened his hand.

"But Raynare-"

"But nothing!" Raynare snarled. "I wont, repeat, wont have anyone mess this up. I want to do what we need to do, get the job done and simply get out of here. We don't have to have this Devil come after us, we don't cause trouble we will be left alone." Raynare grasped her hands together, and turned her eyes to the ceiling. "Azazel-sama, please allow us to reunite. If we can, then I'll definitely confess to you and we can get married if you wish! I'll even join your harem!"

Kalawarner slowly shook her head, muttering "Geez, she's got it hard huh." under her breath.

Dohnaseek looked unsure and felt annoyed he couldn't do what he wished.

Mittelt gave saddened eyes as Raynare looked towards her.

"Also, I'm just gonna say what everyone is thinking because we need to be open and honest if we're to work together on this mission. I'm sorry, but Mittelt, you're so negative."

Mittelt looked suddenly devastated, while Kalawarner looked perplexed as did Dohnaseek.

"W-What? I'm negative? Really? Me? But I always try to be so positive."

Mittelt looked super confused, Kalawarner snickered, she always found it funny the dynamics between the pair of them.

Dohnaseek on the other hand wished to get some fighting in, and he wouldn't mind trying to take out the True Longinus user.

Raynare nods seriously.

"Yes, you are so negative Mittelt, you're always bringing everyone else down with you and your depressive nature. Also the fact that you're in love with Kokabiel, that's horrible, because he's awful."

Mittelt looked to the others, still confused.

"Erm...Raynare-sama, I'm a little…"

"Yes, you are a little...crazed. But its fine, if you stop being so negative, we can help you. Also, remember, Kokabiel bad, Azazel-sama good….you can't have Azazel-sama by the way. Find someone else, that isn't Kokabiel, or Azazel-sama. I personally suggest Dohnaseek, or perhaps Freed? I'd say Naota-sama, but you'd screw it up and get us killed somehow."

Mittelt shook her head with confusion.

Raynare ran a hand through her hair, glaring at Dohnaseek, and then towards Mittelt, and Kalawarner.

She thought "Its one of them that's going to do something, I've got to protect myself...damn Mittelt, why didn't she bring me my muffin? I can't think when I'm hungry…" deeply thinking about what she would be able to do now.

How she'd be able to complete this mission she was on, do what she needed to do, and make sure that she survived this ordeal.

Arriving at school, it was going like most days at the school. It wasn't anything particularly exciting, but it wasn't boring either. Naota simply sat in his class together with Vali, the only other person in his class in his peerage, and was speaking with the young girl.

As he was, he felt a presence enter the room.

Knowing who it was, he became quite amused when a brown haired beauty came up behind him.

"Aah, my adorable Bishounen! Good morning~"

Naota chuckled, his head cocking back to meet her.

Coming face to face with her, he saw the beautiful brown haired young girl. She held quite the charm to her, her long brown hair looked rather soft, and her brown eyes matched to give her a cute appearance. Along with that, she had a similar bust size to Vali herself, albeit a little bigger.

"And a good morning to you Isane-chan, how are you this morning?"

Isane skipped around him, and gave a cheery smile, while Naota noticed her eyes running up and down his upper body. When her eyes grasped that the top button of his shirt was opened, she could feel her face beginning to turn slightly red.

"I'm good~ Though, we have gym today. Are you...I mean, what are you wearing for it? Perhaps those shorts…"

She trailed off, her cheeks beginning to turn slightly red.

Naota thought the idea of playfully teasing her came to mind, so he leaned closer towards the young girl, and showed his cheery sweet smile.

"Hmm, I do have some shorts with me. So maybe I should go with that? Though I've got some pants as well, so maybe they'd be good…"

Isane flashed a cheesy but endearing smile, and gave a thumbs up with her eyes gleaming her excitement.

"The shorts are the way to go for sure!" Naota hummed with bemusement as Isane continues to smile. "It really shows off…" Isane went down to his legs with her eyes, and grinned. "...many good things~"

Vali raised a brow, while Naota continued showing his amused smile.

"Fufu, well if you're saying it, maybe I will go with the shorts~"

"Great! Aah, but we've got class so we can't speak for long huh...anyway, lets speak later~"

Naota nods, and Isane sits down.

The class then begins.

Going through the lesson, Naota noticed Isane gaze towards him from across the room, so he waved casually, and she in turn gave a bright cheery smile.

Naota was aware of her status as a girl that was highly perverted, but he liked she was an honest girl. She wasn't someone that hid who she desired away, yet he also sensed a bit of vulnerability within her each time they talked.

He did wonder about her, and her desires, and if that would lead her to become a Devil.

He could see her being a good Devil.

By the end of the class, most began to leave, with Naota and Vali walking out together.

During their walks along the corridor, they talked about various topics.

When finally getting to the roof alone, they spoke about one topic that Vali had wished to speak about for a little while.

"It really is going to be a curious situation if she turns into a Devil."

Understanding who she meant, Naota gave a strong nod in return.

"Its as Rias-chan said, her desires really are going to fuel her imagination. Imagine demonic power in her hand...aah, I just thought, she'd probably invent some sort of technique that strips men or something~"

Though Naota was joking, Vali thought that he was probably spot on.

"Don't give her any ideas, she'd probably do that."

"Haha, probably~ Anyway, it seems for now, she's a rather happy girl."

"She is, it is a shame that she isn't aware of her Boosted Gear, and seems to not come from any supernatural background. Still, if she was trained by you Nao, she'd be a good opponent for me. If she becomes supernatural, you'd do that, wouldn't you?"

Naota gives a gentle smile.

"I can see you're quite serious about this Vali-chan, I'm sorry that you've had to wait."

Vali shakes her head.

"Its fine. As I said, if she's trained by you, I'd not have any problems. Even if she's right now a girl with no knowledge of the supernatural, it doesn't mean she would be weak. She's got the Boosted Gear, it is going to be an intriguing situation to deal with for sure."

Naota could hear the desire coming from Vali.

This was her supposed destined rival.

Boosted Gear, and Divine Dividing usually had that kind of clash whenever they met, so for Vali who loved fighting, to have a rival she couldn't fight, Naota knew it caused her some feelings she'd rather not have.

"Anyway Vali-chan, I'll find you a good opponent to fight, I promise~"

"If it could be a God of some kind, or perhaps if we run into a creature that's got Ultimate Class power."

"Fufu, I see. So if its like that, then maybe I could arrange it~"

Vali looked satisfied, and Naota playfully patted the top of her head.

When coming back from lunch, Isane stood in her gym clothes, and on the field, waiting for the others. Next to her, was Kuroka (not in her neko mode, having hid her ears and tails) and looked on with a grin.

"Kukuku, Kuroka-chan. I might've been able to convince Naota-kun to wear some shorts~"

"Ooh Isane-chan, you're so cool~"

The girls laughed together.

Others soon joined them on the field, including that of Naota, who indeed wore his gym shorts today.

Isane gushed, while Kuroka gave a strong thumbs up.

"Looks like you succeeded~"

"Aah yeah, those legs of his look so good~ And his butt looks really good too~"

Kuroka smirked to herself, and thought "Ooh, if only Vali-chan heard that~" as she continued with a wide grin.

"So now, Isane-chan. When are you going out with Nao-kun~ You're totally his type~"

Isane spluttered as she saw Naota quickly look towards her.

Isane turned her head to the side ever so slightly with a slight redness growing on her face.

Kuroka couldn't contain her grin.

"So, when's it going to happen~?"

Isane became flustered, shaking her hands around rapidly.

"W-What are you saying? I couldn't ask out the hottest guy in school!"

Kuroka tilts her head.

"Why not?"

"Because! Because I'm me! I'm ordinary!"

"Trust me, you're anything but ordinary Isane-chan~ Doesn't he always have a smile for you Isane-chan? Whenever your name comes up in topics, he becomes rather happy you know nyaa~"

Kuroka beamed, Isane pauses her actions, and turns towards the young man himself.

She saw that he indeed was smiling and waving towards her, sending her heart aflutter.

"See~? Told you so~"

Isane gives a rather uncharacteristic poking of her fingers together.

Kuroka hadn't seen her be so shy before, she thought that it was endearing for sure.

"So, gonna do it or what?"

"Eeh, well, I guess that I could try? But, I don't know! What if he says no?!"

"Nah, he wont do that."

Kuroka expressed joyfully.

"You seem pretty sure."

Isane noted, Kuroka exuded confidence pretty well.

"Of course~ I know Nao-kun, he's a sweet guy~ And he'd totally wanna go out with you. He's always told me he likes you."

Isane's eyes drifted towards Naota, who began playing football with the others.

Her eyes lustfully went towards his bodies movements, though when her lustful eyes landed on his butt, she felt a chill go down her spine.

She looked to see Vali off to the side staring at her.

Isane cringed, and turned her eyes back to Naota.

"Asking him out huh...I could do that~ We always have a good laugh together~ We could, do things together. For sure. Definitely! I could be a good date! Yeah, I'm gonna do it! I'm gonna ask out this Bishounen and cuddle him! Even seeing him naked! The world is at my feet! I have to do it! I have to see that sexy boy nakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed! Then we'll form the ultimate harem together! Hahahahaha! Wait for it Naota-kun! Lets become the Harem King and Queen together!"

Isane happily skipped in place at her thoughts.

Kuroka was pleased with herself right now.

She was happy to see someone she called a friend be able to begin moving towards a goal she desired.

The day of school passed by with relative ease, nothing major happened. So when they finally got to their little clubroom they had, Naota sat at the desk, and had Koneko on his lap, Elmenhilde tried but got into a battle with Ravel, who ended up sitting on his right thigh, to the grievance of Elmenhilde.

Vali casually ate ramen in the back, Kuroka lazed on the couch within the clubroom, and Elmenhilde sat down on a chair, her eyes being on Ravel who in turn looked back with strong eyes.

"Alright, its that time of the day again~"

"Sexy fun time?!"

Kuroka yelled excitedly, Ravel gave her curious eyes.

"No, contract time."

Ravel said it with kindness, Kuroka shrugged.

"Well, that's fine with me. I don't mind if it is contracts nyaaa~"

Naota slowly nods, and begins going over the contracts.

As he did, he saw Ravel and Elmenhilde staring hard at one another.

Though that was replaced with a cuteness coming from Koneko, who snuggled against him.

As he finished, he saw them beginning to leave.

All but Kuroka left, so Naota spoke with her.

"Say, I saw you and Isane-chan having a fun time today~ I'm glad you girls are friends~"

"Totally~ Actually, we were speaking about a certain topic that involves a cute boy~ She seems to be building up her courage Nao-kun. So, you're gonna go out with her right?"

"She's going to ask me out?"

Naota wondered, Kuroka grinned.

"That she is~ I think so anyway~ I think she wishes to go out with you. Who knew the girl with the massive sexual desire would turn out to be a shy girl in times like this. Though she always tends to believe others wouldn't see her in such a way. I think she's quite the cutie~"

"Yeah, she's very beautiful." Naota agreed. "So that's how it is? Well, if she's shy about it, perhaps I could be the one to ask her out?"

Kuroka became elated.

"No kidding?!"

"Yeah, I'm sure we'd have fun together."

Kuroka nods profusely.

"You definitely will nyaaa~ Go and have fun with that perverted girl~"

Naota became bemused.

"You seem to be quite for it."

"Well, she is a nice girl, and on my first day here, we spoke and we got to become good friends~ Plus, she really is cool with speaking about naughty stuff nyaaa~ Like I discussed with her the other day about bondage, and damn, she's really into some fun stuff~"

Naota slowly nods with an intrigued look on his face.

He could see Kuroka was rather excited about this, and if that was the case, then Naota knew for sure that Isane and he would have a good time together, so he thought the next time he saw her, he should go for it, seeing even Kuroka was encouraging such things.

Beginning to return back from their contract, Naota and Ravel thought they'd take a little walk through the town to enjoy one another's company, and to take in various sights of the night, including its sky.

"Lovely evening Naota-sama."

Ravel began, latching her hand with her Kings in a cute manner.

Naota wrapped his fingers around her hand, and held her hand gently.

"Indeed, its nice that we can relax. Though I'm sure Vali-chan is getting excited to have a fight. Aah, speaking of, we've got to go and find a good fight for her. We haven't had any major fights in a while."

"Unless you count the time where we fought that Dragon…Vali-sama was so excited that day."

Naota began to laugh.

"Aah yeah, that was a good fight~"

Ravel gives off a cool smile.

The pair continued traversing the town together, enjoying one another's time together.

As they talked, they both felt a change in the air.

They felt around the same time a new figure approaching them.

Stopping in the road, they saw no one else was around.

So they waited for the figure to approach, and soon enough, they did.

It was Dohnaseek.

His eyes displayed a superiority complex, his body suggested rather disturbing details that he thought he'd be fighting.

"Hmph, so there you are, Naota of the holy spear."

"And there you are...Dohnaseek of the Fallen Angels."

Dohnaseek showed a distinctive smirk.

Naota glanced at Ravel, who in turn sighed.

Meanwhile, Raynare traversed the burnt out church, looking for anyone to help her.

She looked around, and went to the area where the alter was, finding Mittelt watching TV, a horror film from what Raynare could discern.

"Ooh shit! No, Ghostface! Leave her alone! Aaah!"

Raynare snickered when seeing Mittelt getting scared.

Mittelt grabbed a pillow from nearby, hugging it to her chest.

"Ooh okay, she got away...ooh shit! He's there! Run! Run for your life!"

Raynare cracked up, holding her hands to her face so the sound of laugh didn't get too loud.

She didn't want to ruin Mittelt's fun, so she went to go and find someone else.

Soon enough, she found Kalawarner reading a book.

"Geez, why is everyone not here? I haven't seen that idiot Freed, and I haven't seen Dohnaseek...actually Kalawarner, where is that idiot?"

Kalawarner looked up from her book, shrugging her shoulders.

"I have no clue."

"No clue? But he's supposed to be here, I've got some research to do. You know, the mission?"

Kalawarner let out a breath.

"I'm not his keeper."

"I know, but I'm worried that idiot is going to do something and make our cover be blown. I wish Azazel-sama didn't send us to this town. Its too much for me, Naota being here, Vali being here...these two could wave their finger at us and we'd be dead. That Dohnaseek is causing my stress levels to grow higher and higher. I can't stand this feeling inside of my chest."

Kalawarner stretched her arms.

"Yes, I know. Its worrying, but even if Dohnaseek does do something stupid, we can get out of it, couldn't we?"

Raynare shuddered.

She didn't know for sure at all.

So she resolved to go and find Dohnaseek, hoping, praying that he didn't do anything to stop this.

Back with Naota and the others, Dohnaseek gave the eyes of hatred and superiority towards Naota.

Naota in turn glanced at Ravel, who in turn let out a small breath.

So Naota turned back to Dohnaseek.

"Though I've got a good idea, what are you doing here?"

Dohnaseek snarled, his hand beginning to light up with his power. Pushing it further, he began materializing a spear of light.

Naota could see where this was going, so prepared himself.

"I thought that I'd come here to see what this power of yours is like. I think its hype, but my comrades told me to stay away from you."

"You should've listened to them, seem like they had the right idea."

Dohnaseek gave offended eyes.

"Tch, are you trying to pretend you're stronger than I am? I've been training and I'm close to receiving new wings. To show the status of my power. And you're stood here with this girl, you are going to die."

Naota was slightly bewildered.

But he did recall how Azazel said that Dohnaseek was a person that could be troublesome.

"It was agreed that if the Fallen Angels stay in this town, then you're not to make contact with the Devils, and to not cause harm to human or anyone else from the town."

"That wasn't my decision! It was the leaders!"

Yelling that out defiantly, Dohnaseek showed his aggressive sides.

It didn't bother Naota and Ravel, neither seemed to be worried about it at all.

"Then listen to him. I've been given the go ahead from your boss that if you do try anything dangerous, then I'm supposed to end your assault. You get what I mean, right?"

Dohnaseek snarled.

He didn't want to be defeated, and he allowed his hand to grab the spear of light he formed super tightly.

Naota in turn prepared to fight.

Suddenly however, Naota felt a new presence emerging and heading right for them.

It was Raynare, who came in with a double foot flying kick, nailing Dohnaseek in his face, and sent him rocketing down the road.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

Dohnaseek screamed, Raynare lands on the ground and pants hard.

"Shit! He had a spear of light! Shit!" Raynare turned to Naota, who waved her at pleasantly. "Ooh shit!"

Naota cringed, seeing the growing panic on the young woman's face.

Even Ravel could tell that Raynare was feeling many things at this moment in time.

"Eeh...nice to see you Raynare-san."

Raynare shook profusely.

Ravel could see tears forming in her eyes, and turned to Naota with a raised brow.

"Naota-sama, what's happening?"

"Eeh, good question~"

Naota wasn't sure either.

He could see the panicked look on Raynare's face, he assumed that Dohnaseek had gone against her wishes.

Raynare then turned to Naota, shaking heavily.

"Ooh okay...N-Naota-samaaaaaaaaaaaa! I'm so sorry!" Raynare got on her knees, and bowed, Naota and Ravel once more looked to one another. "Please forgive this mindless idiot! I try, I really do try with the people I've got! But they're idiotic! Please give me a chance to stop them from being crazed!"

Dohnaseek, recovering from the kick, began to pull himself to his feet, and grimaced from the heavy kick.

Seeing Raynare pleading to Naota, Dohnaseek became angry.

"What the hell are you-"

Before he could finish, Raynare snapped "Shut up!" and proceeded to throw a hard rock at his head, knocking him back ever so slightly.

Raynare then turned back to the perplexed Devils, bowing and putting her hands together.

"Please find kindness in your hearts to forgive Dohnaseek! Or at least me!" Naota and Ravel furrowed their brows at that. "I promise, if you do, I shall punish him severally! He is a fool, and he's not all there in the head! I just have to remain vigilant, and to stop him from being so foolish!"

Naota turned to Ravel, who seemed just as dumbfounded as he was.

"Eeh, Ravel-chan, this is a weird situation."

"Yes...it seems she's really desperate Naota-sama. Should we leave them or do something?"

Raynare shivers, going towards Naota, and looks up in her kneeling position.

"Find kindness in your soul! Please don't do anything to me! If Dohnaseek has to be sacrificed...so be it, he's dug his own grave." Ravel had to admire the honesty. "W-We Fallen Angels, minus that idiot, would never do anything to cause you harm, and to hurt you or your loved ones. So, if you could find it in your beautiful soul to please spare us Fallen Angels, I'd be so ever grateful, and did I mention you look sexy and hot today? Damn, you're cute~ Sorry, is that too much? Aah, I don't know anymore…!"

Naota felt awkward about this, seeing Raynare panicked was quite different to how he had seen her in the past.

He turned to Ravel, who in turn looked perplexed.

"Erm, Naota-sama, this is a situation I'd never thought we'd find ourselves in."

"Indeed, now how to proceed…"

Raynare let out a cute whine, and gave puppy dog eyes.

Naota had to admit she was able to pull that off pretty well.

"Hmmm, Raynare, he did have the intent to cause harm."

Raynare nods furiously at what Naota said.

"That's because he's an idiot! Please believe that I personally would never do such things!"

"Yeah, and I have to think about the safety of the others in town…"

"Ooh! I do know of this! And I shall keep him on a tight leash! He is a moronic man that needs to stop!"

Naota agreed.

"Right...then how about I contact Azazel-san and see where we go with this?"

"A-Azazel-sama!? Y-Yes, Azazel-sama would be a good one to go with! Alright, I'll go with that!"

Dohnaseek looked devastated.

"What?!"

Yelling that out at Raynare, the Fallen Angel woman snarled right back with wild eyes.

"You best shut it! I'm trying to save your pathetic life!"

"No you're not! You're trying to save yourself!"

Raynare shrugged with an uncaring attitude.

"Well, yeah. Can't argue with that. Self preservation and all." Raynare gave angered eyes. "Still, you've caused this Dohnaseek. By the good graces of Naota-sama, you're still breathing. If you don't shut up, he's going to kill you! And I don't blame him! I mean, what the hell were you trying to accomplish with this?! You do remember the part where I said stay away from the Devils, right?!"

Dohnaseek went to refute what she said, when he felt an overwhelming presence.

At a glance, he felt a massive aura radiating from Naota.

He felt worried on the inside, and in turn fell to his knees, sweat dripping off of his forehead when Naota glanced at him.

"Okay then. Raynare-san, I'm gonna contact Azazel-san and tell him about this. But, I will say with regards to yourself, that you've not had a hand in this. Nor your other comrades Mittelt-san or Kalawarner-san."

"Ooh thank you, you beautiful soul! Its shining! Like a star! What a beautiful soul for a beautiful person!"

Dohnaseek felt worried on the inside, he could feel the difference in power between Naota and himself now.

He knew that if he charged, he'd be killed in an instant.

He thought it was hype, he thought the rumours weren't true, but now he could feel that even a glimpse of Naota's true demonic power, that Dohnaseek didn't have the comparative power to face against it.

After dealing with those events, Naota and Ravel both returned back to their home. As they walked inside, Ravel gave unsure eyes to Naota.

"Naota-sama, those other Fallen Angels..."

"Yeah, Azazel-san asked us to see if they would do anything against his orders, so far it seems Dohnaseek has failed."

"Does Azazel-sama have faith they can change? The others I mean?"

"I think he does yeah. Though, he also is aware they could go the other way. He wants to believe in them, yet at the same time he is also being realistic, and knows that if they stayed in the Grigori, and spilled secrets to other people if it benefited them…"

Ravel inclines her neck.

She knew how Azazel had trouble with them in the past, and how he wished they'd begin seeing the error of their ways before it was too late.

"Yes, they might not have the strength, but they've got the knowledge about the Grigori, enough that it could bring some issues should they tell enemy factions, so lets see if they turn to the dark side, or see that if Azazel-sama having faith in them is enough to stop them. Thankfully we have a good relationship with Azazel-sama because we don't have to worry about the Factions feud if they are to do anything, we can easily explain ourselves."

Naota inclines his neck.

"Yes, you're right. Its good to have connections~ And the Fallen Angel girls, I wanna have faith in them, but in case they try anything, lets be ready to put a stop to them. They've got this challenge, I hope they succeed, where Dohnaseek has already failed. Azazel-san believes that this might help them see that their way of thinking doesn't line up with the Grigori's way. Its a chance for them to change, if they go against him again... He's told me he actually likes the group, he just can't fully trust them."

Ravel gives a serious nod.

"I see what you mean. If it would be possible, then change would be good."

As Ravel said it, Naota saw coming running down the stairs, Gabriel.

She had a saddened look on her face, so Naota knew something was going on.

"Gabriel-sama, its always a pleasure."

"Yes, but Naota-kun. Can we talk?"

Naota curiously looked around, but he didn't feel Serafall.

"Serafall-chan...she didn't say anything to you? Because if she did….well, you don't have to worry, she only says things in jest~"

Naota smoothed over, knowing Serafall had a few different thoughts and feelings regarding Gabriel.

Gabriel waved her hands side to side in a cute manner.

"Ooh no~ Though she did tell me that she wishes to marry you first, but I said that you and I should marry first since we became engaged first~ Isn't that the best?" Gabriel said with a refreshing smile. "So, it pertains to something else entirely, its about a young girl that could use your help."

"A young girl huh. Who is it?"

Naota asked curiously.

So Gabriel revealed a small smile, and spoke strongly.

"Her name is, Asia Argento, a Holy Maiden that has had her life turned upside down."

When Gabriel said that, Ravel and the young man shared a look between them, all the while Gabriel had serious eyes.

Whatever was going on, Naota knew that it was serious…

Meanwhile, back in the Underworld, a guard was making his rounds within a prison.

He looked in on various people, criminals of the Underworld.

One he looked in on was Diodora.

His eyes saw Diodora just laying on the bed.

The same that he had been for a good long time now, since he first came to the Underworlds prison.

Staring into the vacant eyes Diodora, the guard left him alone.

Diodora didn't move.

It was as if he wasn't there at all…

End chapter!

So the time skip happened! Naota and the others have grown, and also have grown closer! This chapter also introduced the idea of Rias being Naota's fiancee! For that arc with Riser, something will happen, so lets wait and see~ Isane was also introduced, being quite good friends with Kuroka. It seems Azazel's also set a challenge for the Fallen Angels, and has asked for assistance from Naota and the others.

Then at the end, Gabriel wishes to speak about Asia, so lets see what's going on with that~

Well, until next time, thanks for reading!
