Chapter 6 reaction.

Kindness Of The Berzerker


Rias glared at Kitten at this sudden declaration of not returning his love, Miki and Gorrou also had a couple of words to share that information. Sirzech and Azazel's power flared out like suns at Kitten who stood his ground unafraid of anything. Doctor Wondertainment watched enjoying the show that unfolded.

Vali even ready himself for combat, if the worst came to be.

"Who are you to say that, Our son doesn't belong in your world, look at what Angron did to him, I don't care what you say he's coming home," Miki yelled glaring at Kitten.

"Your son cannot leave until he's saved the others from the vile grip of chaos," Kitten then knelt in front of Miki much to her surprise seeing this golden warrior begging her for their son to stay.

"I can see it, the way he speaks and talks, How the others listen to him, This Issei has saved two of the emperor's daughters from the fate of chaos," Kitten said.

"Your son can prevent the greatest mistake that happened in my universe," Kitten yelled as he finally raised his voice. Many of them were taken back. Miki was confused and Asia's heart bled. Kitten stood up and gazed at Issei's parents.

"Madom your son, may prevent the Horus Heresy! You may not know of the war in detail but I assure you, it needs to be avoided!" Kitten yelled. Sirzech stood in front of the golden warrior. The king of hell glared at him.

"For what reason do you want to prevent a civil war, I know humans if this didn't happen, then you would start another war," Sirzech said. Kitten laughed at the words said. Which made some fearful of what the king of hell's reaction would be.

"What's so funny," Sirzech asked.

"You may act like the devil but you are more human than you can imagine," Kitten said then stepped up staring down at one of the lords of hell. "Some say gods are an imitation of man, and you're all a perfect example of that,"

Sirzech and the other supernatural benign were taken back a bit.

"And I know we wouldn't have another civil war because, not when that boy is there," Kitten said. Miki in the moment had walked between the two making the two take a couple of steps back so there was space. Miki gave a kind glance at Kitten.

"I don't want my son to be caught up in your wars," She spoke the words that any parent would say for no father or mother wants their children to go to war. Kitten heard many of those words but to prevent a cruel grim dark future. One boy had to go to war to stop it. Rias and the others were confused about what to say or do.

"I'm sorry but he has to," Kitten said

A moment of silence had taken over the room as they took in the information. Then it was interrupted by Doctor Wondertainment clapping. All eyes were on him.

"Bravo, Bravo but if you folks hold back the waterworks, let's get back to the show okay!"

The screen slowly pulled down and the room faded to black. It was time to see if Issei was alive or not. Rias held out so much hope.

Issei found himself slouching miserable and alone; the dark abyss surrounded him. The dark forced Issei to feel alone, but Issei's suffering was visible through his posture. Issei held his head down. Many figures appeared around Issei though all their faces were obscured by static. Issei knew who they were there but refused to look up.

Gorru gripped his hands and was uncomfortable, he hated seeing his son in pain. It was just a reminder of how he failed as a parent. Kitten, Ddraig, and Ophis noticed how the dream was beginning to be more frequent.

"This more than just a dream," Kitten said.

"I couldn't agree more," Ophis said.

"Are you just gonna sit there and look like a sad pathetic mess?" A female voice echoed through the abyss. Issei curled up more cringing at the comment.

"I mean, it's no surprise you're this weak, even your parents thought so," Another voice cracked like a whip.

The darkness of the abyss slowly closed around him, with shadow creeping towards him. The figures started to get close yelling and spitting poisonous words at Issei. One figure stood amongst the crowd, its hair red, with glowing eyes of icy blue looking at Issei.

"How much longer are you gonna waste around, feeling sorry for yourself," The shape said, kicking Issei in the rips hard making the boy fall to the ground.

Some of the audience members realized that these figures were easily recognizable as themselves.

"You should just get over it and kill your pathetic self," The rest of the figures yelled the same. Issei could start to feel the wind kick up, as his eyes drifted toward the dark sky to see a terrible red dragon, with a snarling flame in its mouth. Flying circles around Issei.

Issei shook out of fear, staring at the beast. As it landed in front of Issei its claws stabbed his legs, Issei was pinned to the ground at the mercy of the beast, its glowing green eyes glared right through Issei.

"You are a failure, who couldn't wield my power at all," The dragon looked at Issei's missing arm.

"damn you Loki," Rias said under her breath, truly cursing the god a painful torturous existence.

"You think that right arm is all that was owed, I own your soul slave. It's funny, you are weak, you were born to be nothing but fodder for others, now you bawl and shriek like an animal, you aren't worthy of anything, so die a weakling and burn in the inferno, you wreathed ant," The dragon took a deep breath as crimson fire bubbled in his throat.

Ddraig winced at what Issei's mind was doing turning the who he rescued in his mind against him. Rias and Asia felt sick to their stomachs but held steady wanting to see Issei bring himself out of this funk. Koneko felt like crying but found the hand of her master on her shoulder.

"Will bring him back and he's stronger than he looks," Rias said.

"Wake up!" A voice cried. Issei looked to where it came from but found no one.

"Wait that voice it's him," Ddraig called out. Vali was stumped to hear it.

"Who is it," Ophis asked.

"Wake up!" This time it was louder while feeling pressure on his chest. The dragon blasted a flood of flames at Issei.

"It the one you called Me who made dark," Sirzech said. Azazel wanted to know who this god of darkness was but why was he helping out Issei? What was the angle to all of this?

"WAKE UP!" A voice yelled to Issei so loud, that the flame wisped away and the dragon was thrown off. Issei was flung into the abyss.

Vali and Ophis felt a chill in the room something that made the dragons shiver. Vali and his gear felt like they were benign watched from the shadows but thought it was their mind playing tricks on them. The room itself didn't know what to say. The fear had only one thing to feel when they heard it. That emotion was fear of the unknown. Even Doctor Wondertainment smiled and bowed to show respect.


Issei woke up in a cold sweat his eyes opened to dim darkness, breathing deeply and slowly finding his throat to be burning in pain, bruises covered his body, dry blood stained his skin, and he felt aches in his bones, while cuts riddled his body. Issei was drenched in sweat.

"Oh Thank goodness he was fine!" Miki said. Gorrou had to put a hand on his wife's shoulder.

"fine? Honey look his jaw is broken!" Gorrou cried out.

"oh, no if he doesn't pop it back in there could be serious damage," Asia said thinking of how hurt the one she loved was.

"I think he's already ahead of that!" Vali said.

"I'll never forgive you Angron!" Koneko said as her fist balled.

The worst part was that Issei felt his jaw was dislocated. His shaky hand reached for it, holding his jaw. Issei knew he had to pop it back into place, taking more deep painful breaths.

POP!

I am pushing it back into place making a loud pop noise.

Many of the audience members winced in pain, seeing how the teenager had to self-care for his injuries. especially ones that were so extreme.

Issei held his mouth shut to muffle his scream, rocking back and forth in pain. Crying in pain, Issei regained his senses he looked at his surroundings, and seeing he was in a cave he felt the stone floor beneath him, the cave was damp. The sound of dripping water echoed through the cave. Issei looked at the end of the tunnel to see light coming from the exit of the stone cave. Issei painfully stood up and limped to the exit.

"I'll give this to you my son, You tougher than me," Gorrou committed. Miki was just wondering what her son was doing in this strange cave.

"This cave is big, do you think Angron brought him there?" Sizrech asked Kitten.

"Yes, no doubt but my only question is why is she doing this?" Kitten said. Azazel raised a brow at the Golden warrior of Terra.

"You make it sound like she is a different person?" Rias said.

"Might as well be someone else, those butcher nails had suppressed every emotion inside her besides rage, I don't know what's she like I've heard stories she was the champion of the gladiator fields, but that's all," Kitten shared to them all. Rias folded her arms in a disappointed manner.

"Great Issei has made a monster more sane; this is not good at all," Azazel said. Kitten shook his head at the Fallen Angel. If the old stories about her were true, then she was a merciful angel.

"I wouldn't move if I were you," A smooth voice spoke out from behind.

Rias narrowed her on the screen. "Angron," She growled. There was so much anger in her voice that it could have broken the room.

A voice Issei thought belonged to Rogal because of how calm the tone was. He turned around with hope in his eyes, hoping that Rogal and Konrad would take him away from the one who did this to him.

Issei's eyes latched on to the one sitting before him. Angron sat on the floor, her size of seven and a half feet blocking off half the other side of the cave, while Angron showed a calm expression, her eyes were watching Issei intently. Issei shook where he stood, he had nothing to fight her with, and evading wasn't even an option. Issei knew their giant size didn't mean they were slow, but at worst Issei could feel a flare of aura that felt warm and kind. Issei wouldn't be fooled by this feeling. Issei looked at Angron right in her yellow eyes, rage boiling. He could see there was no anger in her eyes, which he thought was a trick. Issei expected Angron should be trying to rip off his head after what he did. Angron raised one eyebrow at Issei's angry stare.

The room was tense, expecting a jump scare to pop out at them. However, all they could see was Angron sitting without a care in the world. Kitten was surprised to see Angron like this. What would he say? The truth would be nothing. Because this was not Angron. Not the one he knew so right now all he would do is study.

Angron felt a laugh bubbling in the back of her throat. Such a rage in a small creature, though the understanding was there, Angron couldn't help but smirk.

"Don't you mock him you beast!" Miki called out. Kitten was taken aback by the laughter that escaped Angron's lips. It was a beautiful chuckle and almost resembled the emperor's joyful laughter. Now he understood what she inherited from her father. Which only made her circumstances more tragic.

"If you are trying to stare me down I find it laughable," Angron said in an arrogant tone of voice. Issei hated her tone of voice while Angron chuckled lightly. Issei yelled in rage, but his voice was raspy, gurgling, and coughing.

"Fu-ck you!"

"You tell him!" Vali shouted. Orpheus had titled her head and chuckled. even without any power, he still stood ready to fight.

"What a strange human," she joked.

"don't you mean brave man!" The captain-general corrected. "Already beaten down yet he still has time to back-talk a Matriarch, I give him credit,"

Angron's smile faded, it was a normal reaction after the things she did to him. It was understandable but Angron couldn't help feeling relieved, if he had said that when she still had the butcher nails she would have ripped the boy in two. Angron held her fist out offering it to Issei.

"Wha-t~ are you d-oing~?" Issei growled venomously.

"It's probably poison," Miki said with harshness. However, there was a deep question of why she would show kindness now after everything she had done. The Same could have been said for the others. Yet The captain-general had one theory.

"Your name was Issei, right? you must be tired," Angron opens her hand to show a makeshift bowl lying in her palm. It was small to her, but Issei saw the size of a normal bowl full of clean water. The giant laid the bowl on the ground. Angron jested to Issei to take it.

"Drink, you look horrible I need you well and rested,"

"You're the one who beat him, you jerk," Kiba yelled.

"I thought you said she was a passionate person back then," Vali asked the captain-general.

"Passionate doesn't mean good manners," He responded.

Issei didn't move an inch toward the bowl, only keeping his eyes on Angron. The cave surroundings were silent, Angron knew the boy was angry with her, so she welcomed it. The feeling of free pain was not unwelcome to Angron. Issei's eyes tried to study Angron trying to find a hint of malice or hate, though found nothing but calmness in her eyes.

"Please tread with caution," Asia said.

"Issei, don't let yourself be punished by this beast," Akeno said.

"F-i-ne!" he yelled, marching towards the bowl, putting his lip to the side of the bowl, dowing the liquid within it. The cool liquid that flowed into him was refreshing. Issei, having enough for now puts the bowl down on the ground.

Miki and Gorrou were happy to see Issei was being tended to in some manner. However, they wished it was under better circumstances. Rias kept a steady eye on the screen. While her mother did just the same. The Captain General couldn't help but mentally take notes.

"Angron appears to be very patient with Issei, it appears many simple acts are possible now, and her healing ability is back as well," He thought.

"Y-our, N-ot, going to punch me in the F-ace a-again, are you?" Issei asked, not taking his eyes off the bowl. Angron found the boy to be very strange, he didn't show any fear, only anger which dissipated into shyness. Angron was confused by this and still answered the question.

"She better not," Miki said in a disapproving voice.

"No, I will not punch you in the face," Angron answered truthfully.

"Oh thank God!" Gorrou said in relief.

Issei drank from the bowl again. Issei's voice started to clear but was very scratchy.

"So what was that back there?" Issei asked.

Angron knew he was referring to her violent outburst. She took a long sigh and looked away from Issei. The injured teen could see Angron was in disarray, fidgeting with her hands.

"It's complicated," Angron told Issei. Issei had a lot of things going through his mind, but the worst had come to him. The injuries he had were nothing compared to past experiences. Issei hated how that was the truth.

"you just attacked him out of nowhere! How complicated can that be?" Akone said.

"Trust me if you had nails in your brain, you would lash out at anything," The captain-general.

"Did she have to pick such a small cave!" Rias said.

Issei could tell how much Angron hated what she did, to Issei it felt like he was looking at another person, and seeing her eyes was like seeing new emotions that had been kept away for years. Issei didn't know what to think. The whole situation was weird enough as it was. Issei still had the promise to keep, to help out all of Rogal's sisters no matter what.

"Are you giants or something?" Issei asked truly feeling lost in his situation.

"Wow, talk about awkwardly breaking the ice," Kuroka said.

"How would you start a conversation after beating the shit out of him?" Koneko brutally said. The insane Dr. thought of multiple ways that he could at the same time end with extreme violence.

"You'd be surprised by a conversation with a space wolf," The captain-general said.

"No, I'm a Matriarch," Angron answered. Issei in all of his short time dealing with the supernatural has never heard such a name. The word sounded like it meant royalty.

"That is a good question," Sirzechs asked, giving the captain-general a suspicious glare. Rias wanted to know as well how the emperor made such monstrous human beings.

"Beats me, he never told anyone how he made them," Kitten said with a hint of irritation.

"It's probably best that that information stays a secret," Azazel informed them.

"What's that?" Issei asked further. Angron thought maybe Issei had not met the imperium yet, so she answered honestly.

"Oh well, a Matriarch is not a giant, I am human in a sense but improved in many ways than others," Angron explained, remembering when her creator told her origins.

"So you're human, just bigger and tougher"

"Yes and no there's still more to me, than just that," Angron confirmed. "I do apologize for my assault on you, forgive me I have no honor,"

"That's only scratching the surface," Miki said, huffing and crossing her arms.

"And could use some lessons in manners," Venelana said. The two had an award moment with each other but immediately threw their attention toward the screen. They weren't friends by any accounts, but it was hard to agree with each other.

Silence began to take over the room, Issei needed to go back to the others but did not know if Angron would let him leave, So Issei decided to find the answer himself.

"You're not gonna let me go back to the others, are you?" Issei asked in a downcast tone, head hung down low in disappointment.

"No," Angron answered, her gaze not falling off Issei for a minute. She could see the disappointment in his posture. Angron didn't know what to do, she couldn't figure out how to ease into this.

The theater's emotion began to turn into outrage toward Angron's unfairness. While the captain general, I just witnessed in the past couple of moments, the Greek gladiator, apologizing to someone. truly a breathtaking moment. but also being around for so long, you could easily read people that who make shirts are no exception there was no malice In Angron's voice but sincere Ness, like she was doing a favor for Issei.

"interesting,"

"Why not?" Issei asked, gripping his hand in anger.

"Because for your best interest and mine, you shouldn't return," Angron spoke calmly, noticing how Issei was in discomfort. Angron knew it best for the boy to stay away from her sisters, especially Konrad. The Night Hunter was her so-called title. Angron wanted to know why Issei wanted to return, was it out of fear or cowardice? However, all of that didn't matter as she wanted to know the most fundamental thing that happened to her.

"Gosh isn't she all Rainbow and Sunshine," Vali said with a hint of sarcasm. Sona tried her best to read the matriarch but found herself coming towards a blank.

"How did you do that?" Angron asked

"Do what," Issei looked at Angron, remembering the head damage he caused. Angron slowly pointed to the back of her head.

"Issei don't tell her she doesn't deserve that kind of treatment," Rias said with a hint of anger.

"Oh, I- I don't know," Issei said in a defeated tone of voice as he slumped his head down. "God I never felt anything like that,"

"Please partner, be wise, and don't fall to that side again," Ddraig said. The captain generals' interest peaks every time you hear about this god of darkness. Vali wonders the same. Ophis just had to know how this god of darkness got under the red dragon's skin.

Issei brought his knees to his chest, thinking about the unknown power that flared through him. Remembering how it felt, Issei couldn't describe what happened to him. It wasn't demonic, holy, or mystic and everything inside of him was a supernova of energy.

"Are you a psyker?" Angron asked

The whole audience grew confused by those words what did they mean exactly was she asking what type of race the young teenager was, or if he possessed a certain kind of power?

Dr. Wonder Entertainment appeared on stage and looked at the crowd. He held his hands up in a pleading manner.

"Will worry about that another day! But you all know the jest of people controlling the warp,"

Issei, puzzled by the word didn't know what to say, he heard all manner of beings such as angels, demons, and phoenixes, but nothing like psyker.

Angron could see Issei had no idea of what he did to her. The World Eater wanted to know more, she wanted to know how this boy cured the mutilation of her mind. So many questions had to be answered. Though they needed to move from this area soon, there was no telling how much ground she covered away from her sisters.

"We will be moving again soon, I'll gather some food for you when I come back-" Angron commanded, but was interrupted by Issei.

"No, I can't leave them, I have to go back," Issei shouted.

The room became silent again when the young teenager interrupted the matriarch.

"Why do you want to go back?" Angron asked.

Issei looked at the bowl in front of him, with a longing gaze.

"I made a promise to Rogal, to help everyone off the planet, I refuse to go back on my word," Angron looked at Issei, seeing Issei's noble action. Angron knew there was more to his words than just kindness there was something else that lay beneath.

Many felt impressed by Issei's noble nature. But to say at this time was a tad bit foolish. Rias was worried that he would get beaten again. The Captain General nodded in approval at Issei's words.

"You are something else I give you," Kitten said with a hint of pride.

"Your words mean nothing," Angron said in a harsh whisper.

They could see how much those words affected Issei. It broke some of their hearts. Rias and Akeno both could see how much it affected Issei, especially in this personal low moment. It made the two young girls angry.

"How dare she!" Rias growled.

Miki and Gorrou both had a disapproving look. Sona and Vali narrowed their eyes at the matriarch. Something more was going on with Angron. More than just irritation.

Like that she walked off towards the light of the tunnel, she held her head down, eyes showing downcast. Issei sat there in self-hate, cursing himself. He turned his head to his now captor, the blood in his veins turning cold. Issei watched as Angron, now outside of the cave, moved a giant boulder in front of the entrance, cutting all light to the cave, and shutting him off.

Issei curled up into a ball, weeping softly. While he cried softly, the sound of his sadness echoed throughout the cold walls of the cave.

"Angron," Azazel growled. But this anger was more to himself. Knowing he should've had a better eye on Issei before this could even happen. Those cries were never a good thing to hear. However, the next moment was a bit strange.

Angron even outside of the cave could still hear soft cries that echoed inside. Angron felt distressed, her hands started to crush the outer layer of the large rock with little ease.

She hung her head low, walking away from the rock.

"Does she look a little?" Ophis trailed off. Only the captain-general answered.

"ashamed of what she did," Kitten said with awe. He had already begun writing a book in his mind. One that would talk about the real Angron.

Outside of the cave was a different story, oak trees, with white stocks shot into the air, millions of purple leaves hanging, from white branches shading all in the violet shade. The air smelt of sweet flowers aroma. The soil was bright orange, hard to the touch, but it didn't stop the trees that rooted into it. Though this forest was familiar to the Earth. its out-worldly colors gave a sense of wonder. It filled the scary void of the brutality of nature, with mystery and hope.

"What a beautiful place," Asia said, trying to distract herself from the grim situation at hand.

Angron already took in her surroundings, with hasty awe, before finding the cave for Issei and her to hide. Though after that leap into those rapids, she was sure they evaded her sisters. The World Eater needed to get Issei food. Angron could tell how Issei hadn't eaten for a while. She cursed under her breath, how her sisters didn't do anything sooner.

"Woah she looks a bit tense, almost like a master does when I used to tease that boy," Kuroka said. Rias gave a side glare at the Kuroka.

"don't compare my beautiful, elegant face to that gorilla grin," Rias said. The captain did study the matriarch space, noticing it was a bit more smooth with her complexion approaching.

"I believe she's a bit more attractive than you, with her, not constantly frowning every hour, it appears her face softens," Kitten said.

"It still doesn't change the fact that she's a monster," Miki said.

"Damn you, Rogal, how long did it take you to feed someone, were you too busy attending to your projects," Angron marched to find something edible for Issei and maybe for herself, probably even doing a little indulging.

"Rogals is not a people person," Kitten acknowledged. thinking of all the moments when his loyal son did return to the emperor's side. He was solid as a wall but occasionally did drop a joke once.

Though she had to do it quickly, her mind did wonder what her sisters were doing. She was positive all of them had been tracking her, hunting her like a dog. So if all of them were reunited, what would happen? What would they talk about? Could even any of them have a normal conversation without yelling at one another or threatening each other?


The campsite was in complete ruin, with burnt ground staining most of the area in black soot. Carefully built walls, masterfully made smashed into pieces. The smoothed rock floor crumbled by a destructive force. Konrad sat on a pile of rubble playing with two retractable razor-sharp claws that sparked blue electricity and glowed a dim light blue. Konrad watched her claws, thinking of painful ways to cut Angron, for taking what was hers. In her right hand the ripped fabric that Issei gave to her.

"Konrad seems to be Daydreaming how interesting, please Ms. Miki tells me, why did your son's ability to attract such powerful females occur?"

"What!" Miki said in shock.

"Well to be honest I've never seen something like this in our son, we always thought he was a bit lonely until Rias and the others showed up," Gorrou said. His stomach was met with an elbow by Miki.

"Honey, don't give the golden giant that wants to take away any information!" Miki said.

As Konrad sat, many others gathered around. Some took in their surroundings, some took a seat in silence, some conversing, and others stood silently, for all the Matriarchs minus one were here. A lot of them were different sizes, but granted they were giants, a common height was about eight feet, between a lot of them.

Leman Russ sat far across from Konrad with a mad glare. Though she wanted to voice her words amongst their sisterhood, she waited for everyone to mentally gather. Rogal waited on standby, closing her eyes, and going into deep thought. If one did look close enough, Rogal's brow furrowed in anger so tiny.

"They do not look so happy," Kenko said flatly. The audience then notices a shadow dwarf Russ on the screen. The whole audience could feel a strong presence that could heat the room.

One stood taller than the rest at a size of ten feet. Her armor was colored dark green, with a giant reptilian skull worn on her right shoulder, while her left had been covered in a scaly green pelt. At the end of her black armored limbs are beautifully painted flames covering them. A small golden-horned reptile's head was stuck on her chest plate. While behind her head the armored collar formed a gold sun. In her hand, was a giant hammer made of gold, decorated with dragons. Though her most defining feature was her pitch-black charcoal skin her eyes were glowing bright red eyes. The hair on her head was glowing warm colors, it was like fire. It was beautiful. Her hair is like an inferno that is laid on her head. Her name was Vulkan, Matriarch of the Seventeen Legion known as the Salamanders.

All of them had their mouths dropped seeing those red eyes. Vulkan in the eyes of the devils was terrifying to look at. Miki and Gorrou jumped at the site. Kittens didn't even have to look at them to know their reaction.

"Relax all of you, that's Vulkan, she is the most gentle and kindest of the matriarchs," He said.

"I find that hard to believe," Rias said.

"Well if you're her ally she'll protect you with the last of her breath but if you're enemies you might as well see her fiery fury," Kitten answers. Many of them found that hard to believe. However, they remembered the most basic of wisdom, don't judge a book from its cover.

Vulcan gently stared at Konrad, finding something odd, the night lord looked like she was fidgeting nervously.

Miki tilted her head at Konrad ever since the netting with her son. Konrad was more shy and unknowing. She looks like a lost schoolgirl thinking about her crush. Rias, Akeno, Koneko, and Asia are all recognized as well. This was something they didn't like because they could see how genuine Konrad looked. It was strange because even Konrad looked confused about her emotions. Like this was the first with love.

"She is in love with Issei, are you kidding me!" Rias cried out.

"Yeah one good vision and your head over heels about him give me a break, it took us at least a couple of days until we realized we liked him," Koneko said.

"Perhaps maybe you girls are slower than you think," Kitten said. The room was silent after that slide remark.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY!" All the girls yelled. Kitten had to duck his head from all the incoming objects being thrown his way.

Though Vulcan wasn't the only one to notice. One of her other sisters noticed the change in Konrad's personality, she stood off to the side from the carnage wondering what happened here.

The mini outburst from the young teenage girl stopped when they saw the next matriarch appear on the screen. shine with such elegant beauty that they thought they were looking at a God for a second.

Sirzech had his jaw dropped only to be quickly elbowed by his wife Grayifa and Gorrou had to gap at what he saw Miki was blushing at this giant woman.

"Woah!" Miki said. Doctor Wonder Entertainment walked the center stage and waved his hand in front of them all.

"Say hello to Fulgrim, one of the most beautiful and chaser perfectionists," He said.

Her eyes were shining like purple amethyst, while her skin was pale and creamy white. Her long flowing hair was white as snow. All put together with a strong slender face that screamed perfection. The armor she wore was pinkish purple, all over the edges of the armor were gold trimmings, and on flat surfaces engraved designs, having knee pads of screaming gold faces around her belt were little golden wings centered by a red jewel the same style was also on her breastplate, though a two headed-eagle, was more present with a bigger red smooth jewel. All while being elevated by high-heeled shoes. On her right shoulder was a large golden wing that stuck out from her right shoulder plate.

"She seems eccentric," Miki said seeing her beautiful armor.

"Why wear such things in combat is my question?" Azazel said.

"Oh trust me Fulgrim never gets hit, she is extraordinarily fast," Kitten said with a hint of pride for one of the matriarchs.

"I've never seen, her like this," Fulgrim said to the other Matriarch, who was next to her. Fulgrim's voice was that of gentle silk.

Though, Fulgrim gave off an aura of beauty, elegance, and perfection. To her right was a different story if one were to look at the Matriarch to her right, you could feel her ironclad frustration illuminating the air around her.

She sat on a pile of rubble watching the others squabble amongst each other, trying to

Formulate a plan.

Her armor was a shiny metallic black, with bronze metallic trimmings all over her armor. Patterns of golden lining were planted on her plate's shoulders, and a symbol of silver gear, with a silver hand in the middle, was worn proudly on her breastplate and shoulder plates. Many chains hung from her waist and back. While on her back were a considerable amount of robotic arms, strange gadgets protruded from the strange pack that hung from her back. Though much of her armor was covered in oil and scratches. Like she was hard at work on a mechanical project. Her hair was long and black tied in a top ponytail, while her sides were shaven short, going well with her silver eyes.

Her hands were something else, a true marvel. Her muscular arms were covered by a metal coating made into her arms, the metal had stopped halfway to her bicep. The metal in her arms was so infused into her skin, it looked like her arms were painted silver. By her side, a mighty war hammer lay on its head, handled straight up.

"You think her behavior is unusual, she is insane Fulgrim," Ferris stated, in a gruff voice.

"Oh my I've never seen such a strong, ironed hand specimen like her," Azazel called out.

"You think she gets complaints about cold hands," Koneko joked with a deadpan face.

Fulgrim knew of the horrid ways Konrad acted toward her enemies. The away Konrad waged war, very few battles on the battlefield unless it was an absolute victory they could foresee. It was the terror they caused civilians and leaders, that made them surrender out of fear. Despite this, they are one of the few legions to have fewer casualties than any other legion in war. Fulgrim knew this first hand, for she helped train the Night lord in war or the correct answer supervise. Fulgrim looked at Konrad nervously.

"I know she isn't as mad as we think she is," Fulgrim jested. "She is hiding something, but what she hiding is a mystery,"

"What a snake personality," Miki said. "Is she the gossip girl by any chance in the group?"

"You haven't begun to understand the drama. This one puts on ourselves," Kitten said. "But if you all think she the most beautiful then you're dead wrong,"

Rias and Akeno both rolled their eyes thinking that there were more challenges for Issei to deal with. But surely they couldn't get any more beautiful than Fulgrim, right?

"I thought that was sister Alpharius' job, to be secret," A more angelic voice said. All of them turned around. Vulkan smiled, while Fulgrim smirked and Ferris raised her brow.

Azazel swore he could hear the voice of an angel. bit years of experience from working up top that he could recognize heavenly tones. The matriarch that appeared, made both genders in the room blush at her sheer beauty. Even Venelana had blushed, feeling a bit envious.

"Oh my, what a star," Venelana said. Kitten couldn't help but smugly smile behind his helmet, thinking how human engineering had beaten the supernatural side in the beauty department.

Her hair is blonde, bright, luscious, and free. Was like something from a fairy tale. Around her head was a laurel wreath crown, made out of solid gold. Her armor was golden and slimmer, complimenting her slender body. A large red jeweled reptile eye was placed on the chest plate. A white Leopard pelt, with brownish spots wrapped around her shoulder to her right waist. The head of the feline beast was mounted on her left shoulder. A sword sheathed by her right, A golden spear gripped in her hand, the tip shined a bright mystic blue. Though her beauty was breathtaking, the actual most elegant feature was her large white wings that reached down to her behind her knees, it made her resemble an angel. Her looks were pure human perfection except for the wings which didn't belong but still made her more beautiful.

"Not even the angels back in heaven glow like that," Irene said. Asia would have prayed if not knowing that this angel was made of something inside of her, didn't like that that man had made an Angel.

"That oddly sounds like heresy, wait that's an odd thought to have oh Geez," Asia thought. Rias had a worried expression on her face and held her head.

"I'm doomed aren't I," She said out loud. Venelana comforted her daughter.

"Oh dear sister, joking at a time like this, how Devious," Fulgrim jested.

"Ah Sanguinius, I truly fear what's to come to that boy though, but it wouldn't make sense for Konrad's behavior; she must dearly want to return to her home," Vulkan said her voice finally being heard, you could tell how gentle her tone of voice was, for it sounded so kind and welcoming. Giving joy to all those near her.

"That's so cute she just overgrown Teddy Bear isn't she," Asia said with a happy voice.

"I wouldn't say joking, it wouldn't hurt so far, but I do agree that boy safety is our number one issue," Sanguinius agreed with Vulkan.

Sona could see Sanguinius was a caring person she was and found that to be charming.

Sanguinius looked towards Konrad with a worried look, and so did Vulkan her face looking sad.

"I'll go talk to her," Sanguinius suggested, trying to mediate the problem. Fulgrim quickly had a worried expression.

"Maybe, we should wait-"

"And she is already off with the horse, acts before thinking it seems like Issei could get along with this one," Vali jokes.

Fulgrim tried to finish her sentence but it fell deaf upon Sanguinius' ears, as she walked towards the brooding Konrad, with calmness.

Konrad was so lost in her thoughts, that she didn't notice the Matriarch of the blood angels walking up to her. The night lord finally acknowledged her sister with a single glance.

"Come here to scold me now, the wolf beat you to it," Konrad spat.

Sanguinius could see the bruise on her cheek, though that did not sway her from talking to her sister.

Koneko had to admit it was a pretty bad shiner on her face. However, Kitten found her healing to be oddly slow today. What reason for the change?

"Konrad I know, you and I haven't talked for a while, I can't help but worry about you, please if anything disturbing you, please tell us," Sanguinius just asked for Konrad to let off any burden she was carrying so heavily around.

"That might have been a poor choice of words," Miki said.

"Disturbing me, you think I am disturbed right now, nonsense! I tell you this the only disturbance is that we all haven't been able to figure out how to get back to our legions and homes, that is all nothing else leave me," Konrad said in an annoyed growl.

Almost all of the Matriarch looks towards the two, seeing such an unlikely duo, Converse would be interesting to watch.

Sanguinius not bothered at all by her sister knew of her torturous visions she must've been suffering them quite frequently then, the blood angle herself had rare a glimpse into the futures as well, but they were vague and didn't tell much. Though Sanguinius looked towards the cloth, that fanged between Konrad's fingers.

"My son did a number on Konrad, I've never seen her so shy," Kitten said.

"Well we hoped our son would meet a lady to make him happy but Captain General we don't want our son dating any of the Emperor's daughters with all due respect," Gorrou said with a brave front. He didn't want his son to deal with this monster's problems. He needed a normal life where people cared about them, and not stare at them like some scientific discovery.

"Sir please understand that you don't have a choice unless your son discovers International travel," The captain-general informed. Rias narrowed her eyes and wouldn't give up. None of the girls would because that's their Issei.

"Will see about that," Sirzech said.

"Please sister, I don't want any strife, Konrad, just some honest words," Sanguinius asked.

"They waste your words else we're," Konrad barked. Sanguinius still standing near Konrad. The blood angel looked more at the rag, seeing blood on it. She wondered what was in her hand a gift, a token, or worse a trophy.

"She is still holding that rag," Sona said. Rias could see that Konrad was acting almost like her when she had inner turmoil about her feelings for Issei. She found it strange.

"Konrad, why do you hold that rag? Did that boy give it to you?" She asked, trying to start a conversation with her sister. Konrad immediately hides the ragged way.

"It is nothing, just fabric that belonged to him," Konrad looked away into the woods, with a calm look. "It will be useful to track him with,"

"My word so skittish!" Sona said.

"So strange it's almost like she never had experienced love of any kind," Rias said out loud she then glanced at Kitten. "Why hasn't anyone shown her any love,"

The golden warrior looked uncomfortable as in truth. The emperor of mankind was not the best, father figure.

"Well yes," the captain-general said hesitantly. Only for the strange doctor Wondertainment intervened.

"His way of showing love doesn't count," he interjected. The Captain general had looked away. Rias realizes that this person may have been more damaged than she could've met someone who was badly hurt more than her. Rias couldn't possibly imagine the idea of growing up without love.

"Oh, Konrad!" Sanguinius said cheerfully, "You should give it to Russ, it would help us greatly,"

Konrad glared at her sister, her fists gripping with rage. The Angel felt the hostile energy around. Konrad refused to let any of her sisters take the token of kindness given to her. Konrad realized all eyes were on her. Fulgrim, Vulkan, and Ferris had their hands hovered over their weapons. Sanguinius was still calm and relaxed. Konrad needs to make a lie to get these eyes off her.

"Such anger all in a pale package," Vali said.

"It wouldn't help. The fabric has no scent," Konrad said. Trying to make an excuse.

"Well, I'll be the judge of that Konrad," Russ said as she gripped her ax.

Sanguinius seeing how Russ was angered by Konrad's action slowly walked in front of Russ's warpath, stopping in her tracks. Though Sanguinius stood in her way, Konrad could still see Russ's gaze on her and unlike last time she was prepared for any assault thrown her way.

" I truly fear for their sisterhood, if every time they interact, able to end up in a fight," Asia said in sadness.

The Angel turned towards Konrad with a raised eyebrow.

"I'm sure, there would be no issue here," Sanguinius suggested. "Russ is sure Konrad will be more than reasonable, right Konrad,"

Russ stood her ground staring at Konrad with a rugged gaze. Leman Russ stood her ground.

"Alright, sister I'll wait," Leman Russ said only for her to be cut off by another voice. Konrad had all eyes on her.

"Konrad give her the rag, anything can help us get back to our world," Fulgrim called out.

With a defeated groan, he walks toward the Wolf lord. Konrad handed the rag to her, Russ grasped it from her hands not taking her eyes off Konrad. The Night lord grind her teeth, as the Wolf lord gripped the cloth roughly.

Russ could see the malice in her eyes. Leman Russ didn't care, all she needed was a scent and the boy could be easily tracked down even if Argron bathed in that river. Leman Russ would know if he was near.

She brought Issei cloth to her face and sniffed it. Then just like Leman Russ had completely stopped moving as the smell of Issei entered her nose.

"Well hopefully the stinky dog can pick up a sent," Koneko said.

"Mmmmmarh," Russ moaned sensually everyone stared with wide eyes at what Russ did. A moan escaped her lips, as Russ stared at the rag. Leman Russ broke out of her daze as Konrad stared at her sister with surprise.

The whole audience had their jaw dropped, seeing and hearing what had just happened. Even the captain-general custodian was in absolute shock at what he saw. Even for Russ, this was strange

"What in the Thorne!" Konrad yelled in shock.

Leman Russ Immediately looked around with a casual look on her face. Many looked at her with a different shock.

Sangunieius looked wide-eyed at her sister's reaction, showing such a perverted moan in front of them all. Flugrim had discouragement all over her face. Ferrus rolled her eyes. Vulkan shyly gasped.

"Oh come on she's a pervert under all that Viking," Rias screamed in anger. Rossweisse held her head in disappointment.

"What a disgraceful shame," She said only in her head to think of something else.

"Poor Russ I understand the need to find a man, especially at an old age," Rossweisse thought.

"Oh, shut up all you, it not like you wouldn't do the same this human as such a nice smell to him, eh no wonder you hogged this to yourself Konrad but I do wonder?" Russ said as she suggested something. "You've been acting strange since you met that boy. don't tell me you got in my way because you fancy the boy,"

"Issei is our only clue to where we are and how to get back," Konrad suggested, in all her honest opinion, she was feeling very intense romantic feelings for Issei. Konrad didn't know how to approach them though, so it was better to leave it alone for now.

"That seems like the question for the dark God to answer," Ddraig said.

"Issei, ah. Konrad if you just wanted to bed with the boy, you could just tell us," Russ said nonchalantly. Russ had relaxed putting her hands on her hips.

"It's nothing like that you fools!" Konrad yelled back.

"It's definitely like that," Vali said. Ophis laughed at the joke and couldn't help but be entertained by the superhuman's small problems. It was like watching a Greek comedy.

Konrads had started to fidget more. A red blush appeared on her pale face. Almost all Matriarch shouldn't be ashamed. Falling in love wasn't impossible many of them had past lovers. Russ's younger years she had many past husbands. Vulkan started to think, she looked at Konrad's strange behavior.

"Come on you're telling me a psychopath is uncomfortable with the idea of emotions," Azazel said crossing his arms and tilting his head at the screen. Sirzech quickly had a light bulb pop in his mind.

"Unless she hasn't loved anyone at all," He said. Miki narrowed her eyes at the screen, and quickly realized they were right; she did look inexperienced and quite shy around the subject.

Vulkan questioned herself. Konrad is a person who skinned and killed people for her sick twisted pleasure. An epiphany hit Vulkan like a lightning bolt. Vulkan gazed at Konrad with a calm look in her eyes. She took it upon herself to approach her.

"Konrad, have you ever bedded someone?" Vulkan asked kindly.

Konrad looked at Vulkan with an uncomfortable look, as a long awkward silence settled in the Matriarchs. Konrad didn't answer, her eyes were looking at any other that wasn't at Vulkan. Russ soon picked up on the question, and Russ softly giggled.

"You gotta be kidding me she's a virgin!" Gorrou said with shock as did Miki. The captain-general awkwardly looked around and tried to make a reasonable excuse.

"So she's a virgin. I'm a virgin and a lot of space marines are virgins!" He was tested trying to make it not sound wrong. Rias laughed at the captain-general and slapped her knee.

"No wonder you guys do so much killing I bet you're all one hundred percent sexually frustrated AhAhAHAh!" Rias laughed. Kitten face face-planned his cold armor as even Doctor Wondertainment had to laugh at the joke.

"That's a good one, I'll have to write that down," He said taking out a giant note pad writing it down.

"You-r-r a virgin," Russ asked trying not to burst out laughing, Konrad grabbed the cloth from Russ's hand, stuffing it back in an armored pocket. Konrad felt embarrassed, she hated this feeling she quickly ignored everyone around her, blocked out any sound, and moved further away from the group sitting back down.

Sanguinius and Vulkan had a saddened look seeing Konrad being so depressed. Russ's laughing faded and awkwardly turned away.

"Well, since we know Konrad's love life, who is going to find Angron," Asked a new voice. Her voice was mighty and commanding, and all of them turned towards the one speaking. Sangunieius had a smile on her face seeing who spoke.

Kitten froze in fear at the sound of that voice. The golden warrior recognized the voice, and he was terrified, then comforted by a wave of nostalgia as he remembered who this person used to be. Miki noticed this and grew quite concerned.

"Are you okay?" Miki asked in a worried tone of voice.

"No," Kitten said in a lower tone of voice.

She stood eight and a half feet tall. Her armor was bright white like shining snow. Gold thunderbolts were Designed on her chest, arms, and legs on the armor. Glowing red serpent eyes were on her pectoral chest plate. While one eye was in the middle of her chest. She wore a giant grey wolf's pelt on her shoulders, the wolf's head was still attached to the pelt and was hung over her right shoulder. Red dangly straps hung from her large shoulder armor. On her right hand, she wore a giant clawed gauntlet the fingers were the size of great swords. On her hip was a black long mace, a spike on the head of the mace of the giant stood tall.

Her skin was flawless with a hint of a sun-kissed complexion. It went well with her amber eyes, she had long grayish-black hair. The style of her hair was unique. The right side head was an undercut, while the top hair was thrown to the left side. The rest of it was tied in a tight long ponytail behind her head.

Her name was Horus Lupercal. The matriarch of the seventeenth legion is known as the Luna Wolfs.

"Who's she?" Koneko asked. Doctor Wondertainment floated by the cat girl and smiles.

"That would be Horus the favored daughter of the emperor herself she's known for her charismatic attitude, devilish good charm, and was quite the talk of the galaxy for some time,"

"Will leave that topic open to discussion for later," He said the whole room shuddered what he said, but didn't quite care. It didn't seem too important to them. The captain-general was still tense, and never wanted to talk about her again.

"if you truly are a miracle boy, then save her," Kitten thought.

"The real question is who is willing to go to get Angron back," Horus suggested. The other went silent. "Well, this might be harder than I thought,"

Many of them didn't know who should go some had their choices. The truth was who should go, but why?

"It seems we might need to think about this," Horus sighed sadly.

Many of them had a plan. All of them couldn't help but think about what Angrons was doing right now.

The space in the room felt a sense of uncertainty happening in front of them. They all seem disorganized and unsure of what to do some reckless warriors, other genius, tacticians of war.

"Please Issei be careful, I hope that horrible Angron hasn't done anything to you," Miki said.

"One shudder to imagine what inhuman thoughts lie behind that violent mind of hers. What dreams of chronic and sustained cruelty?" Azazel said with a cold tone of voice.

Angron couldn't help but pick up every exotic flower she saw. All of this free-thinking was amazing for Angron as she walked with more pep in her step. Angron's face was more relaxed having fewer wrinkles even. Life was slowly coming back into her eyes. She was feeling whole.

"Wait what?" Akeno said in confusion as to what she was seeing.

"She picking flowers, how lovely," Kitten said. The image had taken some of them back seeing how Angron was being so carefree. Miki and Gorrou could only see a happy person.

"I was not expecting that," Azazel said.

Angron walked into the enchanted forest with hope in her eyes. She then heard a branch snap and saw a hairy animal eating some and sniffing the dirt. It oddly looked like a black hog but had massive tucks, with razor-sharp quills on its back. It was the size of a large cow. Angron had to get food one way or the other. It looked as though the hog hadn't noticed her.

Gripping the chain axe to her side. Angron quickly readied herself slowed her breath and narrowed her eyes. The hog raised its head at her staring at Angron. She swung the axe fast as lighting at the animal, cleaving the hog's head from its body. Making sure it was a painless death. The strange hog lay dead on the ground.

"Well, at least she got food for Issei," Miki said.

"Be it very calm if I might add," Kitten said. The Captain General could see how Angron made the kill quick and painless. Kitten felt some form of relief seeing Angron like this.

Angron picked up the dead animal, she skinned it like a rabbit, ripping off the skin easily. There was no red blood, the color of the meat was a sapphire blue on the animal, while its muscle tendons were purple. The meat was bright and clean so the animal was probably still young.

"What a strange color?" Angron said out loud to herself.

"What a strange animal," Sona said and noted seeing the creature's inner guts. However, in the underworld, there are stranger creatures.

Angron had what she wanted; it was time to get back to the Issei. Taking deep breaths she waved her ax to get some of the blood off. She looked at the mess she had caused. Taking a long sigh, Angron walked towards the cave food to be cooked and more questioning to begin.

Angron needed to lead with the carrot, while the stick was out of the question. She hated what action she took against Issei. Angron felt such heavy guilt in her heart.

She wanted to help Issei as much as possible but dammit she needed answers

Kitten quickly deduced what the matriarch was doing, and found it to be almost as charismatic as her father. Angron had some new charm to her and it was stranger. It was like seeing a tiger stand on its legs and singing Hello Dolly.

"How strange," He noted. Azazel also quickly figured out Angron's tactic. Kill them with kindness was always a grand technique.

Making her way to the cave she needed to move now, As far as she knew this place was already tainted with evidence to track her. The giant boulder stood in the way, so she pushed it aside like a sliding door letting the light into the dark cave. Angron was surprised to not see Issei up the front of the cave, she knew there was no other way out of the cave. it was a one-way entrance so if that were the case he must have been in the very back hiding.

Angron smirked happily, dropping today's dinner on the cold cave floor.

"Yes! Issei escaped I knew our son was crafty," Gorrou said with a great big smile. Mikki was happy at this moment.

"But where did he go?" Rias asked. Kitten let out a childish, small giggle. The two parents turn their attention towards the golden warrior.

"You're son is quite clever," Kitten said. "However I hope Angrim will feel the same."

"Don't you dare underestimate that boy is more capable than you could ever imagine," Ddraig said.

"Now if you're trying to escape Issei, I warn you, I'll look for you everywhere!" She yelled into the darkness, with an excited look on her face.

Walking into the cave she moved her hips back and forth in a playful way. Angron didn't even know what she was doing, she let her emotions take control and thinking last.

"Issei, come out, if you don't you get no dinner," Angron said as she looked into the abyss to see no Issei, but she could hear his breath. He was in here and he was hiding. Angron smiled more, the excitement of cat and mouse got to her.

"Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Issei I expected better things if you're not going to come out," Angron said. She was finally able to pinpoint where he was in the cave, for she could hear Issei breathing and he was very close.

"I'll have to turn every stone, look in every nook and cranny. I'm going to find you," Angron said, she stopped and took a calm breath.

"I'm going to look low and high," Angron looked up to see Issei clinging to a stalactite trying to hold his breath. Issei's eyes showed panic as he held onto the stalactite. Issei's hand was caught in the cookie jar. He hung his head low in defeat. Angron looked amused. It was a good plan. It probably took a lot out of Issei to get up there. The problem is that Angron knew all the tricks in the book.

"How did he get up there?" Miki asked.

"Wow! You're right, he makes such a good spider, pervert," Ophis joked, making Ddraig annoyed at the comment.

"It was a genius and clever tactic. However, that wouldn't work against someone like a matriarch, especially one who has full brain cognitive function," Kitten said.

"Are you going to hang up there all day or are you going to help me make dinner," Angron asked.

Issei sighed letting his grip go and fell to the ground, he expected a rough landing. Only to be caught by two firm hands that grasped his waist. Angron held Issei firmly. He didn't want to look at Angron; he probably was gonna see a smug look on her face.

"She seems entertained, not angry," Miki said.

" I think Angron might have taken a certain liking to your son, perhaps she's looking for companionship," Kitten said.

"She can find companionship with the other eight-foot-tall man, not my son," Miki said.

Issei was put down gently on the ground. He looked at the animal that was lying on the ground by the cave mouth. His only opinion on the body was why was it missing a head; At least Angron killed it humanely

"Well, at least she is careful now," Sona said.

"Why is it blue?" Issei asked Angron only to receive a relaxed shoulder shrug.

"It could be because of its diet but I think will concentrate on cooking," Angron suggested.

"That could be it," Kitten thought. Doctor Wondertainment gave a sly smirk.

"Is the nerd writing a book about blue pigs? I wonder how good that's going to sell," he joked. Kitten crossed his arms and looked away.

"It wouldn't be a book only like a four-part magazine or something I don't know, leave me alone," Kitten barked.

"Will you two shut up I'm trying to watch my son," Miki said.

"Come now make the fire or do you want to gut the thing, something with only one arm might be hard," she said.

Issei sighed and went outside the cave, Angron followed shortly behind. The teen looked around only for Angron to lightly push him to gain his Attention.

"Go get firewood Issei, oh, and try not to go too far, if I find any suspicious behavior I'll break your legs," Angron threatened. Though she averted eye contact saying it; she couldn't bear to see any hurt reaction from Issei.

The room went dead silent. Many in the room were angered, and that threat against the young teen was horrible. many of the Angels and Devils found that disgusting and despised the Red Angel more.

"You said-,"

Issei tried to say something, only for Angron to cut Issei off.

"I said I wouldn't punch you in the face, not hurt you more, remembered that," Angron said.

"Well, she is monkey-palming it. her words, she is getting her brain back isn't she?" Ophis said.

Issei thought quickly, but every answer he came up with to run from Angron, soon fell flat on its face. I can't outrun her, I can't out-think her, and I can't even fight her.

"Dammit, what do I do!"

Issei was snapped out of his thoughts to see Angron looking at him with an annoyed expression on her face.

"Issei go to the firewood," She asked this time with more anger in the back of her voice.

Issei gathered as much wood as he could, he collected many broken branches, twigs, and pounds of kindling there. Soon he got tired and rested. He looked at the pile he had made, realizing it wasn't enough at all he needed to grab one of the bigger logs but he was too weak.

"How charismatic of her, making a man missing an arm, go and carry all the firewood. Truly what a great person," Rias said sarcastically.

He tried to lift it but fell back on his butt. Issei looked strained and didn't know what to do.

"God, man this was easy when I had my boosted gear," Issei then remembered all their training and the grueling hard work he had to do. "Okay it wasn't as easy as I remember, but I was there," Issei said sadly.

"Yes, partner, believe in yourself I know you can do it, but don't fall for that evil god Issei," Ddraig said.

"Yes Issei I know you can do it, believe in yourself," Asia said.

"Human ingenuity triumphs, overall!" Kitten said shocking the two. The captain-general glanced at the two of them saying they were confused looks.

"What I'm on team human," Kitten said.

That was when an epiphany struck Issei like a thunderbolt. If he is not a devil or doesn't have his boosted gear, Issei has one last trick up his sleeve, it is that unknown power? He still couldn't fully understand what he did to Angron but maybe he could do it again.

Issei took a calm stance trying to think of a way to let it out.

"What is he doing trying to ask for his favor, that damn shadow better stay away from Issei," Ddraig called out. Knowing full well that shadow God could still hear him.

"Okay, here I go. you gotta feel it out," Issei told himself.

Issei held out his arm trying to figure out the strange power within himself. Issei thought of ways he used to train himself with his old boosted gear. It was thanks to Rias he was able to control it.

"It was always Rias who helped him, so it should be easy," Issei mentally told himself. "I mean she is always there for me. Right?"

"Issei I'm so sorry," Rias said in a whisper.

"We're all sorry," Miki said, trying to comfort the heiress of the devil's house. All of them could only watch in painful silence.

Issei forced himself to try and do something, but nothing happened. His arm started to shake sporadically.

"Come on just do it," Issei's voice started to crack, as he remembered more of his training days, his mind going into a void of depression.

"Come on Issei, think of the positives your grandpa would've hated to see you like this," Gorrou said.

"Come on, please I need this please," Issei said more quietly, his chest feeling heavier.

"You can do this, you won't fail like last time,"

"Issei you never failed us," Rias cried out. "We failed you,"

Another panic attack started to settle in, it felt like he was standing on eggshells. Issei shook more violently. His teeth started to shake from his rapid breath.

"Come on you piece of shit, don't fail as you did in your match against Sairaorg, you'll win this time," Issei's voice started to sound more desperate. He was forcing all of his negative emotions down just to stand up.

"You'll win this time, Rias loves you if you win," He said in a broken voice. "They'll all love-ee-e mm-m-e If I win,"

That broken cry was enough to bring many of them to tears. Except for the one who won't close. yet even the captain-general could see how much pain this boy was in and found it horrible.

Just saying the name of the one he loved was enough to bring him to his knees, which hit the soft ground. He sat on his knees his head hung low as his hearing started to become nothing but disorientating ringing. Issei now having a panic attack had to sit motionlessly; he was so still one would think he was a statute. Issei's mind was a jumble of people negatively talking.

"I can't believe our son, is nothing than but a no-good pervert,"

"Why did you disappoint Rias-Sama Why?"

"I'm not Rias to you. I'm your president, So go away Issei, go stare at another pair of tits,"

"Will you die for me Issei? HAHAHAHAHA!"

Azazel eyes were wide, and he slowly realized there was something more with these voices and panic attacks. There is something more at work here that is becoming too frequent. He rubbed his chin trying to think of what was wrong here.

Issei suffered in silence as his panic attack took over, painfully hurting his already broken mind. Though it was silent he wasn't alone. Angron watched from afar as she hid behind a tree, at first she went to see if Issei would do anything crazy or display any strange powers, to aid in a possible escape. Angron watched as her two hearts wrenched in pain from what they were witnessing.

They were very surprised to see that Angron was there and watching the young teen. Despite not yelling, or losing her temper, she watched from afar very calmly. Many of the young girls could see she was in distress, even watching the young boy lose his mind.

Rias felt a wave of kindness as she could see the determination in the Matriarch's eyes to want Issei to be better. Her heart skipped a beat seeing the same care she would give her peerage. Rias shook her head. That was impossible though how could this creature develop such care? Though deep inside she hoped it was. Maybe someone could take care of Issei.

The world eater clenched her fist hard. Her teeth gritted in righteous anger.

"Whoever this Rias is, pray to whatever god you worship, that I don't find you," Angron thought angrily.

That thought in Angron's mind was broadcast to the audience. Rias gulped and nervously fidgeted with her fingers. There was no way that this matriarch could ever find her; she soon realized the fear of fighting against a matriarch was placed in her heart. Sirzech narrowed his eyes at the screen.

"You'll have to get through me first," He said out loud.

Angron knew what his reaction meant, for she'd seen it happen to others before. Angron painfully remembered her gladiator enslavement days; Though she truly remembered the others who were enslaved with her, Angron's brothers and sisters.

Issei's pain reminded Angron of her brother and sisters; Sometimes when there were new slaves added to their master roster, new blood would cry out for their old masters to take them back; they would cry out how nice they were to them, asking why did they do this to their beloved servant.

"I'll let him cry now, then later, Oh why didn't I just stay away from you Issei? I'm so sorry for causing you so much pain," Angron thought.

Angron turned around to get started on cooking her food for the evening, but she stopped when Issei murmured something in a broken voice.

"I'll be stronger next time please I'll be stronger, I give more next time, Please I'll give you anything,"

Then for instance Issei felt his panic attack start to end very quickly, and as a feeling of loving warmth surrounded him, it entered his body rapidly. It felt like the same time when Rogal Irradiated her aura, but this was different: this warmth felt like a fire of comfort as It entered his very soul.

All of them could see that sudden calm hit Issei. I was like those negative emotions were ripped away. Almost like it never happened. Sona tried to think what power it could have been but came up short.

Kitten however was stunned at what he had saw. It was like the puzzle pieces had been falling into place. Making an image that was always in front of him. Now he saw what Angron was meant to be. A Guardian of emotion some of the warp feed on.

"That's so brilliant my emperor, she would have been spectacular," Kitten said with great astonishment.

Issei didn't feel violated; he welcomed it kindly. The feeling of warmth made the void in Issei slowly go away. Issei didn't understand what was happening. Where did this warmth come from?

Then a loud branch snapped.

Issei looked around him quickly to see who was there in the purple forest with him, only to see nothing. Issei had felt eyes were on him.

"Hello, Angron," He asked.

He was welcomed by a lavender breeze that danced crossed his nose. He couldn't stop what he was doing so he grabbed any remaining sticks around grasped onto a large bundle of sticks, and headed back to camp.

"Damn, something so big can be sure stealthy," Vali said.

Issei walked back to the cave to see Angron had the meat of the hog cut into small and large pieces. Some of the food was being cooked over a bright campfire, oddly the burning of the wood gave off a very fruity smell.

A sitting Angron had looked over at Issei while she was cooking her share of the food. The pork was cooking on the fire, the blue meat started to darken for the flames. The same bowl full of water by Angron.

"Look at her acting like nothing happened. I have to say she something," Kitten said, noticing how gentle and carefree Angron was, only for under the surface a gentle guardian was under there.

"And what makes you say that, she's holding our son hostage and you say remarkable things about her," Miki said in a heated tone of voice.

"Because I don't think she was going to come through with any of her threats, and why keep Issei alive? The truth is there could be leverage, but all she ever wanted was to be left alone. Why take him? The answer is clear as day I only heard rumors and tails on her old home world they always talked about how the gladiators had such a strong sense of honor, and she protected him. If I know one thing, it's that Angron hates the imperium. Why would she give her son over to the Imperium of Man she's trying to take away a new opportunity," Kitten said as if the answer was right in front of him.

"So you mean Angron is just keeping my son away from the Imperium," Miki asked.

"Yes," Kitten said. Rias faced the screen and couldn't help but admire it but at this time in the situation, it was all extremely unnecessary. They needed to get off that planet so that Issei could come back home.

"Ah, there you are come on, it's time to feast, It smells pretty good," Angron temped Issei.

Taking a deep breath Issei walked passed Angron and set the bundle of sticks by her. He grabbed the bowl full of water and sat on the opposite side of the campfire, bathing in the warmth calmly. He sat in the featly possession, only looking into the flames with dead eyes.

Angron looked at Issei with saddened eyes, she would need to ask more questions no matter what, but those could wait right now she needed to earn his trust.

"Ah looks like your meal is ready," Angron said taking the meat off the fire and setting it by Issei's side. Issei didn't even bat an eye at her, staring into the fire without a care for his wellbeing. Angron softly nudges Issei's shoulder.

"Hey eat, it will make you feel better," Angron said.

"You better do it or else she'll break your legs," Vali joked even though there was a butter truth in his words.

"It's either that or a bad scolding," Sirzech said.

Issei took Angron's offer to eat the strange food, taking a bite of the meat to find it was very soft, easily tearing apart in his mouth. Its flavor was that of pork but had an aftertaste of vanilla.

"It tastes good," Issei murmured.

He turns his head to see Angron stuffing her face with the cooked meat, making moans and groans of enjoyment. Angron looked at Issei with a smile. He had never seen a woman act in such a way before, a kind of new approach for Issei to be honest.

"My goodness she might want to keep those noises to herself," Sirzech said.

"Yeah no kidding," Asia said.

"Umm, you enjoying your meal?" Issei asked awkwardly.

She looked at Issei with calm eyes. Issei then remembered a certain comment Rogal had made.

"Hey, I thought you guys didn't need to eat," Issei asked.

"Oh I don't but I do enjoy it, in fact, I kinda can enjoy it more now than ever thanks to you," Angron said in a relaxed voice.

"Perhaps a little too much," Miki said getting a little uncomfortable watching as Angron

"Hey if you could only feel rage for the rest of your life, I would darn right enjoy every bite of a meal I ever get, because those damn nails made every other feeling in her brain become a painful experience," Kitten said. "Trust me when I say she has every right to moan her meal,"

He raised a suspicious eyebrow at her, Issei wondered what she was talking about. All he did was blow the back of her brains out and to be honest, it looked painful.

"Issei you removed her nails you did such a great terrific act without you even fully realizing it, oh that's why love you so much," Rias said in a sad grumble. Akeno gave a sad giggle.

"He always does that, I wish he was here with us," Akeno said. Miki tensed up hearing the girls talk about how great her son was. She began to think if this whole devil situation had been brought up sooner maybe she would've been more accepting of and talkative. However, at this moment, it was a sour taste in her mouth.

"Okay what did I do to make it better, I mean all I did was hurt you," Issei said lazily.

Angron thought about what Issei said deeply taking in all words.

"So you were trying to defend yourself, but I'm still in your debt Issei more than you know," Angron thought. She looked deep into the fire with the same emotional eye as Issei.

The whole audience noted the honesty that was being placed in front of them. Kitten was very surprised that the young teen didn't seize the moment to make up some lie to try and manipulate Angron. Saying how he intended to heal her in the first place but no, he was honest and he could see Angron appreciated that honesty.

Angron did smile calmly which did make Issei pay attention to her more.

"Hurt me, Issei do you see these scars on my body," Angron said gesturing at the scars on her body. "I've been hurt by others far worse,"

Issei looked at her with pain in his eyes. He looked very distressed by Angron's words. The two sat in silence as Issei took a couple more bites of the cooked meat.

"Who hurt you," Issei asked.

"Yes, that is a good question?" Azazel asked, shooting a time, curious glance at the captain-general, who sat tensely in his seat.

"That is not something I am fully aware of myself," Kitten said.

"And why is that?" Asia asked.

"Because I'm not one to say what happened that day when the Emperor found her," Kitten said in somber sadness.

"My audience. Unfortunately, this topic will be brought up later whether some like to hear it or not. The lives that we lost that day were another tragedy. Let that be a reminder," Doctor Wondertainment said.

"And what day is that?" Rias asked. Doctor Wondertainment paused and glanced at the young demon heiress. he had an old, tired gaze as he had seen and talked about that day for centuries.

"Miss Rias that is the day you will truly sympathize with Angron,"

Rias was unsure what to think but looked to the road ahead with her chin up ready for anything. If Angron had gone through so much pain then why not let Issei give her some ease?

Angron could only look into the fire taking comfort in it. She rubbed her scars, she sighed calmly.

"I'll tell you my scars if you tell me yours," Angron said.

Miki could see that the pain Angron experienced was not something to gloss over. However, to use that paint as a bargaining chip to understand your prisoner is a bit risky. How could she do that? That is what Miki thought.

Issei gazed at Angron; who did make a fair point. Then a thought crossed his mind, maybe he could earn her trust, then he would be able to go back. It was a long shot but hell anything was on the table. Issei looked at Angron, but the words didn't come out of his mouth. Issei felt the fear of judgment upon him.

The whole audience remains quiet, unsure of what Angron would do next.

"I'll talk when you talk okay," Issei retorted in a raised heated tone of voice, he then realized that he raised his voice. " I'm sorry I didn't mean to lose my temp-,"

Angron cut off Issei putting her finger to his lip and silencing him. Issei could feel that warmth again; though Issei couldn't tell if it was from the fire or somewhere else.

Kitten was surprised to see such gentle care to make Issei stop talking.

"Ara. Ara, for someone with big clumsy hands sure knows how to use them," Akeno jokes.

"My worst scar is very old, you see Issei when I was younger the land I grew up in wasn't a kind place, it was full of monsters who enjoyed enslaving and torturing others, from a young age they took me in, and raised me to be a gladiator," Angron said as every word she spoke was calm, but her fist balled with rage. Issei was completely glued to the ground, understanding Angron's pain. That still didn't answer the reason why she attacked him.

Akeno froze at what she heard, in fact almost all the orc members froze in surprise when they heard that. it was probably the saddest story they ever heard. Who would do that to a child, enslave them, and make them fight for their entertainment? Vali's fist tightened when he heard such an unspeakable crime happened in a different world.

"The monsters made me fight against others who were enslaved, who I consider family. The monsters watched in glee at our suffering but it wasn't enough for the monsters. It wasn't. So they took more and more from me, no friends, no family. They left me with nothing. I thought to myself they took it all," Angron muttered sadly.

"But I was wrong they could take more, you see they wanted me to fight more, be angrier. They did something to me. They gave me the butcher's nails," Angron's eyes started to leak water.

Veneala gasped at the news. Rias felt her mouth was gapped. how could they lobotomize someone like that and where is it to lose their found family? Rias quickly understood why Angron threatened her to hear any master after her experience, she would probably brutally beat down any of them. Even though Angron would not hear these words, they still need to be said.

"I'm sorry Angron," Rias said.

"I wish she had landed on a different planet, or different circumstances, something that no one deserves, but she had to go through," Kitten said. Azazel turned to the custodian with a fearful gaze.

"Is this planet still operating or conducting this slave business," Azazel asked.

"No thankfully in my time that world is long gone," Kitten said with a great sigh of relief.

Before she could speak again she heard a gentle rip of cloth next to her. Angron faced Issei to see he had ripped off some of his destroyed white shirts. Issei had ripped a big piece making a large tissue for Angron. Issei held it for her.

"What a kind boy," Kitten said. nodding and appreciation for what the young man was doing.

He gave Angron a gentle nod to accept it and dapped her eyes with it.

"Thank you, well Issei you see the butcher nails are devices that they put in gladiators to make them fight better and only do that, fight,"

"What do you mean, put in?" Issei asked, thinking how grim the story was going to get.

The audience knew very well where those but your nails were supposed to go.

"The butcher's nails are a device they force into slave's brains, see there only supposed to make you feel anger, and anything else you try to feel ends up being a horrible pain. The only way to get rid of the pain is to become angrier, you have to throw away your sanity to live. I was one of the unlucky few who had suffered the nails," Angron's eyes had become empty. " I had endured it all for centuries and the suffering was horrible. I wished I was dead. I lost it all. That's the scar I remember the most.

"Wait she's been alive for centuries. How old is she?" Asia asked.

"Not to mention all that pain she must have suffered from no wonder she was crazy, that poor woman has been shackled her entire life," Rias said in absolute horror and sympathy. "Issei I know you may not hear us, but please try and use some of Angron's pain,"

The sound of a balling fist gained Angron's attention. She watched as Issei shook angrily, his eyes staring at the ground and his breathing starting to turn rapidly. Issei has heard his fair share of tragic stories, but Angron sure did make it to the top of his list. He couldn't believe how she suffered so much pain for so long. What kind of monsters could do that to such a person?

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry that happened to you," Issei said in a sad mutter. "I'm sorry I judged you so quickly, if I had known sooner I would have done something sooner,"

Angron didn't know what to say, the ones who only showed this level of compassion were her legions, but she didn't return their sympathy at all.

"Angron I promise to cure these butcher's nails, to help you. I promise to cure you,"

"The boy doesn't even know he already saved her. I know he's willing to do it again, what a spectacular person you are," Kitten said out loud.

"Or Dumb," Koneko said.

Angron looked at Issei with kind eyes wondering what in the galaxy, did she do, to have met such a kind person, a person she had beaten half to death only for him to offer her a helping hand.

"What did I do to deserve this kind, handsome man to help?" Angron said Mentally. "Wait, handsome?"

Rias and Akeno quickly picked up on some inner mental reaction on Angron only to reconcile that was a blush.

"Oh come on, not you too," Rias said.

Angron snapped out of her thoughts only to gently put her hands on Issei's shoulder. She was staring him right in the eyes.

"Issei you don't have to promise me anything, you have already given me an ultimate kindness that I will never forget, for that promise you have made has already come to pass," Angron gently whispered.

"She is flirting with him," Rias said in an upsetting manner.

"Now hold on, she could just be very flirtatious. We don't even know what her personality was like those butcher nails pretty much made her angry, twenty-four-seven," Kitten interjected.

"Besides, how would that even work? She's too big for him," Kitten said trying to think of the how.

"Well, technically there is always a way," Azazel tried to say only to be cut off by Kitten.

"Not another word," Kitten said. While Azazel had a mocking smirk.

"What?!" Issei said in surprise.

"Yes that attack you did cure me, you saved me, I can't even find the words," Angron said as she edged closer and closer to Issei. This caused Issei's cheeks to redden, and he could feel a gentle aura surrounding him. Issei felt only joy take over and he loved it.

"Issei, you have given me a kind scar and I couldn't be happier," Angron gently whispered as she was so close to Issei's face that she could feel the heat of Issei and she enjoyed it.

"That's a weird way of putting it," Miki said feeling unsure of the Doctors' words.

"Listen, she just got her cognitive thought back, can you just give some credit that she's at least functional," Kitten said.

Issei was utterly speechless, the fact he did such an act of kindness out of an accident, didn't sit well with Issei but Angron was so close and he could see the joy in her eyes. He saved someone, but he didn't need the praise.

"Angron I don't owe you anything, but I'm glad you can live normally again. I'm glad you can feel it again," Issei muttered happily. "But please don't thank me, I'm not worthy of it,"

Issei couldn't look at Angron's gentle eyes so he looked to the missing arm to remind him what he was; or what he thought. Angron took hold of Issei's hand, snapping him out of his depression, and making Issei look into her yellow eyes. She gently laid her forehead on his, gazing deep into Issei's eyes. Issei froze like a statue, Angron was getting so close and Issei liked it, Angron's action was comparable to when animals show signs of trust.

"You are worthy of my praise, Issei I promise to make you happy again, show me your scars and I will lick your wounds " Angron whispered into his ear.

"Oh, that's a flirtatious line," The crazed doctor said.

"That most sexual lineup ever heard in my life," Akeno said with her arms crossed.

"All right, if she wants to smash the boy's pelvis that's her choice. I'm sorry if that's gonna be his final moments," Kitten said, only to find a heated side glance from Miki.

"Do you want me to punch you in the face?" She said with anger. Kitten let out a tired sigh.

"No," He said.

Issei's heart skipped a beat as his breath caught in his throat. Angron went back to her seat and ate her food. She looked at Issei with a shy smile.

"Finish your food, will be moving soon," Angron said in a happy voice.

"Will she have a way with words," Rias said.

Flabbergasted Issei could only say one thing after such a promise.

"Gorrou I've never seen him this flabbergasted before," Mikki said even when Rias and the other girls teased him. Issei had never been this stumped before.

"Well my dear it's not every day you get flirted with by a giant," Gorrou said trying to show how unusual the situation had become.

"Oh, Oh okay," Issei said with a blushing face.

"This is gonna be harder than I thought!" Issei yelled in his head and panicked.

The lights in the auditorium slowly came on. Doctor Wondertaimment. All of them had mixed emotions, much of relief and worry. Rias and the girls were happy that Issei was okay, yet being in the clutches of Angron was not their idea of safety.

"Damn it why can't Issei just be safe!" Rias cried out.

"Not to mention she needs immediate, psychological treatment. He's not well," Asia said.

"I believe this is more than just psychological damage," Azazel said, gaining the attention of the room. Sirzech wanted to know what outside factor was affecting Issei.

"What is it?" Sirzech asked.

"I want you all to understand that Issei does have trauma from the events that occurred from that monster Raynare," Azazel said. "He's always had that pain,"

Miki and Gorroy both held each other. they were told of what had happened yet they still wished it didn't happen.

Rias stressfully rubbed her forehead, thinking of what had happened. "But we didn't see it sooner,"

"It's Loki's curse that's causing him so much pain, or to accurately say, amplifying it, and what made my partner lose control," Ddraig said. " I thought the curse was taken out along with me, I am sadly wrong,"

"Great Issei has to deal with a living curse inside of him, and a god of darkness not to mention who is taking his sweet time doing anything," Kiba said.

"He's also captured by Angron, What will he do," Gasper said.

"Fret not for this new Angron might be something else, I know you all have doubts, but this is truly someone new you are seeing please have faith in her this might sound crazy, but I believe things might turn around for Issei fate," Kitten said. The room didn't want to believe it, but they couldn't argue that they saw so much compassion, and yet those empathetic powers spoke volumes. Yet Angron was a wild card.

"She did stop Issei from having a panic attack," Grayfia said. "Perhaps for some time, Issei should be by her side to monitor his health."

The room couldn't argue against that idea but it still left a bitter taste in their mouth. Why should the same person who beat him take care of him?

"These are all very good questions but right now, all of you are going to have to leave and enjoy concessions for a while before I show the next episode," Doctor Wondertainment said.

Many of them started to walk out but Kitten lingered as he stared at the strange entity that brought him here. His grip on his spear tightened as he gazed at Doctor Wondertainment.

"Why?" Kitten asks.

"Why what?" Doctor Wondertainment asked back.

"Why bring me here, why put these people through so much trouble watching the one they love being thrashed around on the screen? Why show me hope when I saw it being smashed right in my face, a long time ago" Kitten said with anger. Doctor Wondertainment shrugged his shoulders and smiled.

"Because I'm trying to entertain the audience," Doctor Wondertainment said with a big showmanship smile. Kitten felt confused at the declaration the audience he was with seemed just comforted by what they were watching.

"That's funny, last time I checked people had a lot of complaints about the show," Kitten said.

"There, not the audience I'm trying to entertain," Doctor Wondertainment said.

"Then who is this all for?" Kitten asked.

Doctor Wondertainment smiled and sat on the stage dangling his legs without a care in the world.

"You Wouldn't understand, they love to watch this," He said. Kitten could see this conversation was getting nowhere and quickly walked out of the auditorium. Doctor Wondertainment gazed into the black screen and then right at you, the person who is reading the very words right now. Doctor Wondertainment is looking at you.

"I hope you're all enjoying the show because I know I am," Doctor Wondertainment said with giddy joy.


Edited by Argent345. Hello, my dear readers I know it's been a long while seen I posted. Did you all have a good Thanksgiving I hope so. A time for family and dining. Something that The emperor could learn from it, just saying. So just to let you know my posting schedule has been a bit odd but I'm trying to get back on track the new chapter of Human Touch will be edited and posted on December 1 so be on the lookout for that. Also, I just wanted to let many of you know if don't see an update on Saturday. It's because I'm helping another writer with their story. Which one I won't say but I have a good question for you all should I make Loki react when Issei fights his curse and should the other god of DxD see the warp and monster of Warhammer 40k? Anyway, that's all stay safe and have a good day.
