Summary/Disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Alluring Angel. Enjoy the 4100-word chapter. I do not own DxD, Ichiei Ishibumi, and a few others do.
If there were any real problems with what had been done? Neither the Devils, Angels, nor Fallen Angels seemed to raise any concerns. He had too many problems on he was too spent when it came down to it.
Rias had a lot of questions on her mind as she prepared for what to say next. She had a lot of plans and many of them demanded that they be prepared for combat with her friends.
"These terms…" One of the Angels said before another raised an eyebrow towards him. "What? They are simply insane. We are to do something in this manner when they don't benefit us?" The Angel questioned to which the elder Fallen Angel simply raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, since that's damn well what this meeting is for. Who gets the larger piece." The Fallen Angel stated while he crossed his arms. "This is a war of who doesn't die and who does. It isn't really for someone's benefit. It's so we don't die in droves. That's the hill you want to die on?" The Fallen Angel questioned while something seemed to bounce around in the air as he did so.
"I cannot believe this." The Angel said to which the Fall Angel simply seemed to roll his eyes.
"I find it funny all you concern yourself with is the fact there are two species you don't enjoy being here." The Fallen Angel said before he leaned on the wall next to the podium.
"Because it's stupider than anything here. Why can't we simply agree?" The Fallen Angel heard as he rolled his eyes. "We need a lot of topics on our minds We need to plan for a lot more war if we're to handle this properly." The Angel stated to which there was only a sigh.
If it was so easy to capture peace? He wouldn't do anything similar to this. The longer they were here meant the more people who had to die as of now. It wasn't nice or pretty, but they were all aware of how these tactics worked, and none of them seemed to be at odds with how best to resolve this.
Rias stared between the two groups with interest. They had to end this when it came down to it. She was far more interested in what came next. She had a lot more on her plate when it came down to it.
She was far more interested in how to get through this. There was a lot more to this than she had dreamed of. This had been something that needed to be done sooner or later. It wasn't going to be anytime soon.
There had to be done as of the second. It had been something as of the time. it had been a lot harder when it came down to it.
He hummed to himself before he glanced toward her. She remained a lot more interested as of the second. There was a lot more on the line if they failed. All of them were aware of the problems that would come if this mission wasn't completed and none of them wanted anything similar that to come.
Still? There was more on the line that could entirely bring pain and suffering if it wasn't handled properly. all of them knew a war could be brewing if they didn't pick the words more carefully.
They didn't want that, they didn't wish for years and years of fighting to be swept into the garbage bin because someone couldn't let it come to that.
Rias sighed as she realized that more was soon to come and more would probably crush when it came down to it. She always questioned if it would simply rain when it could sleet and hurricane everyone in the area with water.
When it could downpour and crush all of them. In fact? It seemed that could crush them all to dust and into the wind when it seemed to come to it.
She rubbed at the bridge of her nose. There was always something in the way, wasn't there? Some small thing that always seemed to boil over and crush every small little thing in her mind that brought her some small degree of enjoyment that she had or would have.
She hummed to herself before she brought an arm up to see what came next. This would be a lot more interesting than it had been at the time, a lot more interesting at this juncture. Then it seemed to be.
One of them at least seemed to consider her idea that this was probably not going to be a waste of time if they played their cards right. No, it probably wouldn't at all be a slow waste of their time before long if they were careful as to how this ended before long.
She watched as the others seemed to consider their options. On one hand?
They could kill someone who seemed to be important enough for something to happen if they ended her life… On another? They were tired of war and the battles that had raged on their side and others.
They wanted this war to end sooner or later and they'd get their wish if this war ended anytime soon. Yes, this could be a boon.
Still? Anything else would be ripped apart, anything else would fall apart before long. There was too much on the line for them to fail now. Too much on the line for this to come down to it. He had to answer it clearly and precisely.
Anything else was nonsense. It was clear to her that he hadn't yet seemed to be found buried in the rubble, there would be something left to save if she had acted faster, fought smarter, and believed harder in what was to be said and done for every single demon in the area.
Still? if there was to be any peace? She couldn't just quit on peace, she had to be willing to at least throw all her cards on the table and see if there was even a small amount of peace and enjoyment when it came down to it. She had been ready when it came down to it.
The demon seemed as if she had started to reach her breaking point sooner or later. This hadn't yet come to pass, nor would it before long.
She had to find a way to break down the barriers in the area before long or else she'd be risking it all for nothing and that was the worst damn thing she could even attempt to do before long before anything else was to be said and done. She had to at least show she had tried before throwing in the towel.
"What happens if we aren't able to reach any set of terms, whom?" Rias questioned making both look at her with interest as they tried not to answer.
The silence itself was an answer to her question. It didn't at all seem as if nothing came down to it. There was a lot more to this than she could handle as of now. It had been an odd point as of now before all of this was said and done.
Rias didn't expect this to handle all of their problems. She knew other problems would eventually take their place when it came down to it.
What came down to it was to be a miserable part of life. All she knew was an impasse was at least somewhat better than she had been through before now. Still? They needed an answer either. Whatever came next? It'd need to end before now and she knew words had to be said and done.
Still? This was to be dangerous and she knew it. The idea had been something terrible when she considered it yet she hadn't wanted to back down.
"How about we simply decide on what to trade each other? Anything else can wait for tomorrow?" Rias asked as there was a nod from the Fallen Angel.
There was a roll of the eyes from the others as they seemed to question what to do next at the end of the time. it'd be a fun little thing if they didn't slaughter each other and it also surprised her the Fallen Angels were the ones willing to be the most civil… Then again? It at least made sense considering how odd this had been.
"The war benefits nobody and countless soldiers have died. If you angels cared so much about peace and love? You'd accept this." The Fallen Angel added to which the Angel snorted. "Secondly? I doubt you, angels, even care to have the most basic care for the other sides since this is like a slaughter." The Fallen Angel added.
There was a silence before he hummed to himself. he looked to Rias for a moment.
"Lady Gremory." The Fallen Angel said. "What is it you suggest for now? we need supplies and food the most. The Fallen Angels are the weakest and most underdeveloped of this little war we've been having." The Fallen Angel added before he sighed to himself.
He had been a lot more focused as of now. He had been a lot more curious as of now. He had been a lot more focused as of now. He knew for a fact that there were plans in motion before this had been done and dusted. It had been a lot as of this when all was of the second.
He had been a lot more curious for now. He had been odd before now when this was said and done and dusted. He cleared his throat before now. He cleared his throat and looked at her.
"What will happen next?" Rias questioned as they looked at her. "What's going to be all done and dusted? It will be harder." Rias stated before this was done as of the second.
He had been quiet for now. She knew more before now. The Angel sighed and looked around the room and slowly settled on her for a second. It had been an odd little thing for now and for a good reason. He knew for now that this had been decided before long.
He had to hit harder, strike harder for now. This had been something terrible in the making, one which didn't even end right.
"Bah, both of you have been so annoying when this has been said and done for the time being." The Angel stated before he clicked his tongue against the roof of the side.
He had been a lot worse as of now when he questioned as of the time being. This had been a roadblock that had still been in the way. He needed to be ready if this went sideways. He needed to be prepared for some sort of training.
The Angel fell silent. He knew more than anything how insane this was, how badly this would fall apart if words weren't honestly for now. Whatever came next would need to be said and done, in words, not in actions or blood… Nope. It needed to be done sooner or later.
Yet they were hurt a lot more at the end of the day. This had been something to remember for a long time. it would echo around the area now for this. Whatever little thing came next would be far worse then
Whatever little thing came next would be worse than this., It'd probably be a lot more of a problem than it had been before now.
The idea had been brewing in his head for a longer time than it had been before. He didn't care to try and fight them, it would simply be too much for now. What little control he had been odd to handle.
He leaned back in his seat, curious for now when this seemed to be done and dusted. The idea had been growing in his mind. If he was honestly not going to lie? He'd be rolling his eyes back into his back. This was going to be a nightmare for now and he questioned how it'd end.
"Can we at least put an end to this before this comes down to bickering? Can we end that at the very least? No? because I didn't realize we were going to be doing this dance over and over and over. I'd rather not keep fighting me before now." The fallen angel said as he sighed, too unsure of his intentions to just back off.
This was also part of being part of a species that regularly caused trouble when all such things hadn't yet been over. He didn't know what else was coming or how else they could have had this.
Such things didn't seem to have registered within their minds. All it did was hurt their brains, ticking away at the back of their skulls as they did so. It was something odd, something that hadn't yet been able to be processed when it came down to it. He was too unsure, thrown off by their flaws and what was over.
However? All of them knew the stakes. They couldn't afford to let something such as now impede what they had.
He didn't know what their problems were, they didn't entirely know what was happening, but they were terrified of the results if they failed. Such things had been a rather large bother for them.
Yet? They knew more and more about what was going on and how this would have gone, how it could have been tilted to their advantage. They had no real problems with now, only did they wish to have handled it the way they wished to.
Yes, such damn problems required a worse solution, something that could guarantee they had won the right damn for now.
This hadn't yet seemed to have a question about what it should have been. There was no damn way they could have done it for the time being.
He tilted his head before he came down to it. She clicked her fingers before it seemed to have gotten somewhere when it should have been next.
They had so much more to have planned than what it should have been for now. They had so much more to have tried to figure out yet it was still part of life that they had little to no real power when it came down to it, they had little to think of a real answer.
They had a bit more to have considered this worth their time and effort to have done much if anything to have tried and yet? It was all too much for their kind when it came down to it. He hadn't yet seemed to have questioned what to do next before it came down to it.
Rias was quiet while she seemed to have before it was all said and done before she remembered her training on such an issue.
All it did over and over and over again was remind him more and more that such things were horrid, vapid, and intolerable. If his kind did not need this?
He may well have just killed them himself out of sheer hatred and vapid anger. It at least reminded him more and more that he had to deal with, something that he could control at the end of the day.
Still? He knew more and more did he wished to not start another fight, another fight just meant dividing more and more trouble between them and it all.
He would not see such vapid things end so well at the end of the day. This needed to be spoken on, utterly end it slowly. They needed to start to handle it at the end of the day and it needed to be resolved before someone was killed.
This silly farce had to end, truly before someone else was killed before the nightmare unleashed upon them killed far more people than it protected and saved.
Yet he knew more and more this became harder and harder to stomach, to see it end so hard to follow and hard to understand more and more. He was too unsure of what to do next.
There was a lot more to this over and over and over again at the time. it was a lot worse than he was allowed to do and a lot worse than it came down to it over and over and over and over again.
He didn't want to do anything at the moment nor anything at the moment and he wished to be able to relax once more. Something that could and would continue to argue upon it.
This was something that could and would allow him to relax. He felt the moment that he could relax and it was better said than done as of now.
He crushed all resistance over and over again with the sheer ineptitude of his full power and his full desire to bring it all to heel before someone else made him relax.
All of it was maddening to a degree even though he did not wish to deal with it once more as of now, a degree he certainly did not deal with once more.
A desire he couldn't at all relax as of now, there wasn't enough terror for him to fixate on over and over and over again with time and effort.
He didn't at all know what to say or even do as he glanced down at the ground, ready to see it all crumble to dust, to ash more and more. If he had been honest with himself? The nightmare he had inflicted upon himself now and for good.
All of it became easier and easier to deal with, a measure of mercy that wasn't dealt with any time soon, had there been something about it.
There was more to the tale and then it seemed to be an odd little story and try and figure out while this all went up in flames.
The identity of each other was bothering them for the time being as he hummed before he clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth.
The identity of his future seemed to be more and more understandable for now. He looked upwards and into the ceiling, ready to clasp his hands together again and again.
They had to keep going, talking, see this through for now, he hummed to himself before he cracked his fingers, ready to keep fighting and traveling as demanded by someone of his station.
He was unsure of it all for the time being while he looked downwards at the ground for now, there was just FAR too much upon the end of the day and one which vanished upon hitting the ground, knowing what was coming and dreading it all the same.
Perhaps he had too little an idea and too late an idea to try and figure out more and more when he had to try and deal with it as of now. They had to do more or do something, something that they could and should handle.
Something about it however bothered them more and more as he clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth, utterly able to try and figure it all out.
He hummed to try and deal with it as of the moment, an idea that he could and would be able to cut through it like bits of glass, he felt like he was swimming through it more and more.
Yet? He had a lot more to try and figure something out as of now, all cut perfectly in its way shape, or form, they had a lot more to try and deal with it all as he clicked his jaw shut.
All he could do was scream, utterly unsure of the idea that he could relax, knowing what would become of it for now… The idea was just too much for him and all of them, such things needed to be cut through.
It would not matter, not when it became harder and harder to detect… Such things only made him a LOT harder to deal with, an idea that could be utterly maddening to help.
Perhaps it was better he nor she didn't know, not wanting to relax, not wishing to do more than cutting it to the bone.
So much more the better and so much that it HURT to deal with, wanting to cut it down and relax.
It meant little but little could be done to fix it and little WOULD be done to utterly relax and chill, they had a LOT more to try and work out when it was all done, an idea that just couldn't be dealt with.
Yes, so much to do and so little time to see it, not wanting to see it all fall apart and with some effort? He wouldn't see it end, JUST yet, and see it over and over for now.
There was something else for now, too interested in what was going on, for now, he had a lot more to try and figure out. He had a lot more on his mind than it was possible to deal with for now.
He had other concerns on his mind as he looked over to see if she was acting any better. she paused to think of what was going on and paused to think of a better move, unsure of her options and her allies.
She didn't even know what was going on, what else would be done for now.
"You ok?" She heard as she paused to think for now, there was a lot more to deal with now.
She would not relent nor back off and she would not be able to deal with, for now, an idea for which she could not plan.
"I do not at all know what is going on." He paused to think for now and then looked to the side, utterly thrown off for now.
If anything? He could now seem to think of what was going on before he cracked his fingers, pausing to think for a few moments, and then sighed.
He hadn't been able to deal with it until the end of, for now, he had too much on his mind… He had a lot more to see and do with it until the end of it.
He had a lot more to try and deal with for now as he clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth.
He had been too dealt with for now and he clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth. Rias had been many things but he had been too chaotic in it for now when it came to it.
He had a lot more on his mind, something that he could keep dealing with for such a time when he no longer had anything to hide behind.
Such a thing was harder to try and deal with, for now, he had so much to try and cut through.
He had been unwilling to figure it all out as he clicked his fingers and then he looked as he seemed to keep growing on before now as he thought about it.
He sighed, letting it all grow further and further with each passing little moment of the day as it went on and on and on.
He seemed to be ready to figure it all out, knowing what was growing next before now, knowing what was happening next on his mind either way… Whatever comes next? He'd be ready for now either way that he hadn't been able to endure it even if he wished to.
Rias was tired and she acted that way for a reason, knowing that he could not have allowed it to go the way of the beast.
Either or, she would not submit, not to her and not to anyone else, not at all knowing what was growing on… This pain, poisonous as it was? It seemed to be harder and harder to figure it all out.
Yes, it almost seemed like each piece of her was collapsing, and all of it?
All of it was falling apart in ways not even she could hardly understand now and for a good reason, one which couldn't be done with so easily and without even the smallest shred of remorse for it.
