A/N: Because of some complaints I have decided to respond to the reviews at the very end of the chapters. Although I could PM the responds to some of you, this is much easier.
Chapter 6: The Neko Sisters!
More years had passed, and now Itachi's body had reached the age of 13, same with Rias, Akeno, Sona and Tsubaki. Itachi had grown even taller and was now even taller than Serafall, even Sona was now just as tall as their older sister, Rias was only slightly shorter than Itachi and Akeno and Tsubaki were about equally tall.
Right now, Itachi was in the middle of training with Sairaorg inside of his personal training facility. Ever since their battle three years ago they had come together every now and then to train. However, something that started a little over a few months ago, was Itachi desiring to master Touki, which is what Sairaorg was helping him doing at this very moment.
Itachi and Sairaorg clashed into each other pushing their arms up against each other, Itachi then proceeded to deliver a kick towards his rival's chin. Sairaorg blocked the kick and pushed Itachi back. Sairaorg had mastered using Touki through pure training his physical body over the years since he couldn't use his family's demonic power or magic. Touki was something that fell into the category of senjutsu which required chakra. Although Itachi had discovered there was something called chakra in this world, judging by what it did in this world showed just how much of a difference there were between this worlds chakra and his old worlds chakra. Itachi had considered studying it but since it was so different it might not be easy to master, so mastering Touki would be more than enough for now.
Itachi and Sairaorg kept throwing punches at each other and blocked each other's strikes. Itachi jumped back to gain some distance between the two of them, Sairaorg however flared up his Touki aura and charged at Itachi with full speed. Itachi then blocked a punch from Sairaorg that sent him flying across the room, and he landed onto his knees. When Itachi looked up he saw Sairaorg's fist a few inches away from his face. "Should we call it a day?" Sairaorg asked as they have been training for about over an hour now.
"I suppose." Itachi smiled and got back up they then exited the training room both looking a little sweaty.
"So, how do you feel?" Sairaorg asked wanting to check if the training helped.
"I do feel stronger, although I am not quite there yet." Itachi replied as they were heading for the locker and shower room, when on the way they ran into Sona. "Sona, is something the matter?" Itachi asked his beloved little sister.
"I came to check if you were done training, Onii-sama, we have somewhere to be." Sona replied making Itachi raise his brow as Sona didn't say where they were going. "I will be waiting for you upstairs once you are finished." Sona said and walked away, Sairaorg looked at Itachi with a questioning gaze and Itachi just shrugged his shoulders in responds. The two rivals then went into the showers, then changed their clothes, and once they were finished Sairaorg went back home.
This time Itachi, Sona and Tsubaki had come to visit the Gremory castle and they were welcomed with open arms. And once they entered Rias and Akeno greeted them, it turns out that Sona had brought him here to hang out, claiming that Itachi needed to spend some time with their friends. First, they played a few chess games and Itachi didn't lose once of course, and now they were watching a recording of Itachi's fight with Sairaorg from three years ago, as Rias claimed that Akeno didn't see the fight at first hand as she wasn't in her peerage at the time, and that this could be a perfect time to show her an example on how devils fight. Although from what Rias told them, Akeno was quite gifted when it came to magic and was grasping it quite well.
At the moment of the recording they had arrived at the point where Itachi put Sairaorg under the illusion and won the battle. "What did Itachi do just then?" Akeno questioned blinking a little out of confusion to what just happened.
"I put Sairaorg under an illusion to knock him out, that was how I won the battle." Itachi explained yet Akeno still looked confused.
"Itachi has the ability to put anyone under an illusion as long as he looks them in the eyes." Rias explained and Akeno widened her eyes in amazement.
"Wow that's amazing, you're really strong aren't you, Itachi?" Akeno looked over at the man that she had a crush on with a smile and a lustful gaze.
"I suppose." Itachi said as he was reading a book while the others were watching the recording. Itachi at the moment had two girls that have a crush on him, and he has no idea of it either, not because he was stupid, he had just not payed that much attention to some small advancements they have done towards him, as those advancements were mostly hugging his arms between their developing, yet very large breasts, or asking him to come with them to hang out and do stuff.
"And that was how Itachi became known as the strongest devil of our generation." Rias said and Akeno had a look of awe while Sona had a look of pride for her older brother, and Itachi had a look that said that he really didn't care at all, which he did not.
"So, Itachi I have heard that you and Rias are engaged, is this true?" Akeno asked and Rias' face darkened not because she hated being engaged to Itachi, but because she was also engaged to that jerk Raiser, and despite her having feelings for Itachi she didn't like the idea of it being an arranged marriage. Rias also didn't want to force Itachi to marry her she wanted him to marry her because he wants to.
"Yes, that is true, our parents have arranged an engagement between me and Rias to prevent her from having to marry a man named Raiser Phenex. However, after the whole ordeal has been dealt with I will allow her to marry whom she chooses." Itachi replied and Akeno looked at him with a puzzled expression and then she looked over to Rias, whom pouted at what Itachi said as he was the one she wanted to marry. Akeno knew very well how Rias felt about Itachi, and Rias knew what Akeno felt about Itachi as well, and so did Sona, basically everyone did besides Itachi. The reason for this once again, was not because he was an idiot, he just didn't pay that much attention to their advancements towards him.
Suddenly the door to the living room opened and in entered Sirzechs. "Rias-chan, I wanted to talk to you about something."
"What is it, onii-sama?" Rias questioned and stood up to face her brother while Akeno bowed her head down in respect for the great Lucifer.
"I have a new peerage member for you." Sirzechs replied with a smile and everyone gained a look of confusion while Itachi raised his brow and put his book down for now.
"A new peerage member?" Rias questioned as she looked a little excited.
"Yes, here she is." Sirzechs stepped to the side revealing a tiny little petite cute girl with short white hair cut in a bob cut with bangs going over her forehead, her eyes were golden, her most notable feature being a pair of white kitty ears sticking out from the top of her head and a white cat tail from her bottom. She looked rather nervous and frightened like a kitten being taken to a new home. "She has some special circumstances so she can't really stay anywhere else. If you wish to know more about these circumstances you will have to ask her yourself."
"M-My name is… Sh-Shirone…" The girl muttered her name in a broken like voice as she avoided eye contact from any of them.
"Shirone, nice to meet you." Rias greeted the little petite girl with a warm welcoming smile trying to make the girl feel more at ease, but to no avail. Shirone didn't seem to like being called by her name and they all seemed to take a notice to that, Rias and Akeno exchanged looks with one another trying to figure out what to do.
"Well I suppose this matter has nothing to do with us. See you next time, Rias." Sona bowed her head politely. "Come, onii-sama, Tsubaki."
Itachi could see the girl had some troubled backstory like Akeno, although she didn't give the same look of hatred like Akeno did only sadness and sorrow. He figured it would be best for the girl to sort out her own feelings before trying to open up to her, although Rias and Akeno didn't seem to know that as they tried to make the girl talk to them, which resulted in her lowering her head like she was hiding from them.
"Rias, a word of advice. Might be best to let her sort out her own feelings before you try and open up to her. Whatever she's going through I doubt you can do anything to comfort her." Itachi suggested to his fiancé.
"But-" Rias tried to find a good reason, but she couldn't find any way to argue against Itachi on this and stayed silent.
Itachi could have sworn though that the look Shirone was showing looked so familiar to him, then it hit him. She looked like Sasuke when he had found out that Itachi had massacred their entire clan, there is no mistaking it, that look of sadness, the feeling of having been betrayed by someone you loved.
"Onii-sama." Sona called out for Itachi breaking him out of his train of thought.
"Oh, right, let's go. See you guys later." Itachi gave a small wave of goodbye to the girls.
"Yeah, see you later, Itachi. Come back again soon." Rias said with a smile although she didn't really want Itachi to leave and from the looks of it neither did Akeno, although Itachi had already turned away before they started showing that look in their eyes. And as Itachi was walking away with Sona, Shirone looked at Itachi with a small hint of curiosity as she had noticed the look of understanding in Itachi's eyes when he saw her.
After a few weeks had passed Rias had suddenly called over Itachi asking for help with Shirone. When he had arrived, Rias told him that Shirone had been ignoring her and Akeno for the past weeks and gone off to hide somewhere and only coming out when there was food. And Rias thought there was maybe some way Itachi could help as she knew he was skilled at tracking animals and people whom are hidden.
"So, what do I do when I find her? I doubt she will voluntarily return back with me." Itachi said as it was true, he really doubted Shirone would come back if someone found her and told her to do so.
"Just please find her, I'm worried sick about her she is my new Rook after all, and a part of my household." Rias said with pleading eyes, Itachi found it a little difficult saying no to Rias, especially whenever she would look at him with those eyes, and then he gave in and let out a little sigh.
"Fine, where was the last place you saw her?" Itachi asked and Rias guided him to the living room saying she had come here to eat snacks and then ran off. Truly this girl reminded Itachi a lot of a kitten, and he remember his younger days back in Konoha when he would hunt for cats for that old cat lady. And if this girl was this much like a kitten, maybe she thought like a kitten to. Itachi walked outside on the balcony on the top floor, Rias and Akeno followed him closely, and when he walked out on the balcony they were surprised when he suddenly leaped up to the rooftop of the Gremory castle. The two girls took out their devil bat wings, with Akeno having one devil wing and one fallen angel wing.
They then saw Itachi just standing there and they landed next to him and looked at him in slight confusion. "What is it? Itachi?" Rias asked.
"Did you find her?" Akeno asked.
"Up there." Itachi said and looked up on the top of a tower seeing little Shirone dressed in better clothing than from the last time he saw her. She was sitting on the top of a tower while looking at the full moon with her tail moving back and forth like a kittens.
"Shi-" Rias was about to call out to her but Itachi stopped her from doing so.
"If you call out to her you risk scaring her off." Itachi said at this point threating this girl like she was just a kitten.
"You know she's not a cat, right?" Rias asked with a sweat drop.
"Yes, but she sure is acting like one. She is a nekomata after all." Itachi said with a small amused smile and brought out his wings.
"What are you doing?" Rias asked.
"I'm going to go and talk to her, what else?" Itachi replied and flew up towards the tower at immense speed. Shirone's ears suddenly twitched as she knew Itachi was approaching, she turned around but didn't see anyone. "Looking for me?" Itachi was behind her and she swiftly turned around looking ready to run. "Come on, let's sit." Itachi said patting on the spot next to him.
Shirone moved carefully towards him, while looking at him confused. "What do you want?"
"Well how about that, you can talk after all. And here Rias told me you hadn't said a word in over a few weeks." Itachi said and once again patted on the spot next to him. "I just want to have a little chat, that's all." Shirone looked hesitant and backed slightly away from Itachi. "I won't bite you or anything, so just sit." Itachi said with a little smile on his face to make Shirone feel a little more at ease, it worked slightly as she at least sat down, just a little further away from Itachi. "Now then, want to tell me what's bothering you?"
"…"
"I take that as a no. Then I guess I have to guess what your problem is." Itachi said and the girl still avoided eye contact with him. "Someone you trusted and loved betrayed you and now you feel sad, right?" Itachi asked and Shirone flinched with her eyes widening a little. "I take that as a yes. Now if I were to guess who this person was, I would say either a parent or a sibling." Itachi noticed Shirone flinching at the mentioning of the word sibling. "Sibling then, I see."
"… A-Are you the same?" Shirone muttered as she gazed at Itachi slightly.
"No, but I have witnessed a similar situation before. And read about it in a story." Itachi replied of course one part of that was a lie. "Want me to tell you the story?"
"…"
"…"
"…"
She didn't refuse but her ears twitched a bit showing a sign that she was paying attention which made Itachi smile. "Once upon a time, there were two brothers that lived in a peaceful village with their clan. The older brother was strong and considered a prodigy amongst his fellow clansmen, while his little brother admired him greatly and wanted to be acknowledged just like his brother was. They would live a happy life for many years, but the older brother as well as the rest of the clansmen knew of a truth the younger brother was too young to even begin to understand. They knew the village hated them for their powers and abilities, and members of the clan was often discriminated by some of the villagers. One incident occurred back when the little brother was still a little baby, and that incident took the lives of many people. The clan these two brothers came from were blamed for the incident and driven to the outskirts of the village where they were spied upon. The younger brother like many other children his age had no idea, but the older brother did and wanted to protect his little brother from this truth. One day however the clan had enough, and decided to stage a coup on the village. This remained unknown to the younger brother. While as the older brother being the skilled fighter that he was, was placed in the villages military to work as a spy for his clan, when in truth he was a double agent." Itachi told the tale of the two brothers and Shirone looked slightly more intrigued.
"Why would he become a double agent? Shirone asked wondering why anyone would turn their back on their family.
Itachi gave her a smile. "Unlike the younger brother, the older brother when he was 4 years old witnessed a world war and saw countless of people die. This lead him to despise war more than anything, and he knew that if someone as powerful as his clan would try and overthrow the village, other enemy nations would take this opportunity and attack which would cause a new war. So, in order to prevent it he worked on both sides to try and find a way to solve this problem without any bloodshed."
Shrione looked a little more intrigued which made Itachi smile even more. "Continue." Shirone said and Itachi just thought that this girl was a little cute, just like a little kitten.
"However, things did not work out for the older brother as he had hoped. The clan's hatred and stubbornness had grown too strong and in the end time ran out… However, one village leader decided to take advantage of the older brothers love for his village and his younger brother and gave him a choice. Either side with the clan and launch the coup and die along with them and along with your younger brother. Or side with the village and prevent the coup from happening by putting an end to his own clansmen and in exchange his little brother would be spared, his brother whom knew nothing. As the time came, the older brother massacred his entire clan, even his own parents." Itachi clenched his fists for a bit holding back his own feelings as good as he could. "He then pretended to be a villain to his little brother and tried to feed him with hatred and give him the idea that he did it for power. The older brother took the role as a villain, and became known as a traitor and a criminal. And his younger brother was sad at first, but then he grew only hatred for his brother whom he had once looked up to and loved. After several years of enduring the hardships of having to be a criminal, and deal with the idea that those who you loved hated you now and wanted you dead. The older brother caught a terminal illness on purpose, and once the younger brother had grown up and become strong enough, the older brother arranged for a fight between the two of them. The older brother fought while pretending he was still a bad guy who needed to be stopped, he kept going until he died at his younger brother's feet. And despite all of the things he went through, he died with a smile on his face, because now his little brother would be considered the hero of the village, whom had slain his criminal brother. The older brother found peace in that and died happily, while his younger brother kept on living bringing honor back to their family name. The end." Itachi finished the story and looked over at Shirone whom was trembling, and tears ran down her eyes and Itachi noticed that she was sitting right next to him now. Itachi wrapped his right arm around her shoulder and brought her in for a hug.
Meanwhile Rias was holding back her tears muffling her cries with her hand over her mouth, as they had eavesdropped on the story Itachi told. Akeno also felt sad after hearing that story. But for some reason when they heard that story, they couldn't help but imagine Itachi as this older brother character which made them feel even more sad.
"My onee-sama…" Shirone uttered trying to hold back her tears. "S-She killed our former master because she was drunk with power… That's what I heard… And now she's, she's…"
"A wanted criminal." Itachi finished and Shirone couldn't hold back her tears and cried into Itachi's chest. "What is you older sisters name?"
"Sniff… Kuroka…" Shirone replied.
"I see." Itachi gently stroked the girls head. "We should go back inside now, Rias has been worried sick about you. In fact, that's why she called me over here, she really cares about you."
"Why? Why does she care?" Shirone questioned.
"Because you are like family to me now." Rias climbed up onto the tower with them and looked at Shirone with a warm loving smile.
"Family?" Shirone questioned as Akeno also climbed up.
"That's right, you're a part of our family now, Shirone." Akeno replied with a warm loving smile.
"We love you and care for you, we eat together, we laugh together, we have fun together, and that makes us family." Rias said and embraced the little nekomata in a hug and Shirone started crying even more and Akeno even joined in on the hug. "Hey, since you seem so uncomfortable with your name, how about I give you a new one?" Rias suggested which peaked the petite nekomata's interest. "Oh, I know. how about Koneko, you look so much like a kitten after all."
"Koneko… I like it…" Shirone uttered with a little happy smile on her lips.
"Thank you for the help, Itachi." Rias thanked her fiancé.
"No problem." Itachi gave them a little smile and then he walked over to Shirone and petted her on the head. "Behave now, and don't run off without telling Rias where you are going, okay?" Shirone nodded in response with a faint blush as she felt calm and relaxed around Itachi and her heart skipped a beat. "Now then I should go, later." Itachi waved before he vanished in a magic circle.
Once he arrived at the Sitri castle he instantly went up to the head guard of the castle. "Itachi-sama? Is something the matter?"
"Give me every bit of information you have about a criminal named Kuroka." Itachi demanded in a stern tone.
"What for?" The head guard asked with a raised brow.
"I would like to help out in an investigation, now I don't have time to discuss this, give me the information right now." Itachi demanded and the head guard got a little startled.
"Umm, yes sir, right away young master." The head guard went into his own office and grabbed a file. "We all have had a look at it, every other guard from every household has one, so that we can find her and bring her to justice." Itachi browsed through the file and saw a picture of a black-haired girl with golden eyes, she had black cat ears that was visible from her head and she wore a black kimono and the top was a little open revealing her developing cleavage that rivaled Rias and Akeno's, it said she was an SS-class criminal and was now considered a stray devil.
"Thank you, you may go back to your duties." Itachi said and vanished through a magic circle, he was all too familiar with the name of Kuroka and Shirone's former master. Rumors had it that he was a devil that was into experimenting on other species, even on his own servants. Itachi was a little skeptic at first, Kuroka could have protected her sister from a horrific experiment planned by their master, or she could have actually become drunk with power. Itachi however wanted to find a way to help, as he knew what was in the end of the path Kuroka might be walking at this very moment, and he had no desire for anyone to walk that path like he did. He was going to take a gamble on it, and go see this elder sister nekomata.
He arrived through a magic circle in a large mansion that belonged to Kuroka and Shirone's former master whom was now dead. He snuck into the place where they had found the man dead in his own office to look for clues. He browsed through a bunch of files found at his desk which the guards seemed to have avoided looking through, they must just have thought this was a classic devil abandoning his or hers master in their selfish quest for power. But Itachi was a man who demanded evidence to prove if someone was guilty or not. He then found a file that said how the dead man had planned to experiment on Shirone, and how and why. Itachi's eyes were filled with a little disgust directed towards the dead man.
He heard someone approaching and quickly hid beneath the desk, two guards entered and looked through the room. "Such a shame to lose a full-blooded devil…" One guard spoke.
"Yeah, like our species isn't in enough trouble already. Have they found her yet?" The other guard asked with a tone that said he wanted to find Kuroka and kill her for her crimes.
"Yeah, they managed to track her into the woods, she won't get far. I heard her sister was saved by Lord Lucifer from execution though, apparently, he gave her to his little sister."
"Well she had nothing to do with it after all so it doesn't matter, the only reason she was placed for execution was in case she would end up just like her big sister."
"We better get going, we're a part of the search party to find that bitch anyway."
"Yeah."
Itachi heard that the door closed and could hear the guards footsteps as they walked down the hall. Itachi took this chance to slip out. He then used a magic circle to teleport himself out in the local wilderness of the mansion as the full moon shined brightly.
He then flew through the woods with his devil bat wings sticking out from his back, and with his sharingan activated to try and locate the missing nekomata. He spotted various guards looking around on the other side of the forest, but then he noticed someone hiding in the top of a tree, watching the guards as they passed her.
It was Kuroka and she let out a sigh. "That was close, nya." She had two black cat tails sticking out from her behind and she wore her black kimono from the photo and it had bells decorated on it. She was about to leave but then Itachi let his presence be known to her by releasing some energy, knowing that with her senjutsu skills she could sense him. She swiftly turned around and glared at Itachi whom was standing on a tree branch behind her. "Well, well, a cute devil boy found me, nya." Kuroka smirked and got into fighting position.
"Relax, I'm not here to hurt you nor am I here to arrest you." Itachi said with an emotionless stoic face with his hands raised up. "I'm a friend of Shirone." The moment he said that name he noticed that Kuroka's body flinched. "And I know why you did what you did." Itachi said and Kuroka was taken a little aback, but she remained warry of Itachi.
"Oh, and what do you think I did? Nya." Kuroka asked with a smile on her face although judging by her expression she was ready for a fight, and looked at him with a slight condescending glance.
"I know that you killed your master because he was going to perform some experiment on Shirone. He wanted to test her in his research to create super devils. But you stopped him, however due to your recent development in your power which had surpassed that of your master. People assumed that you had become drunk with power and killed him. This later lead to your sister almost getting executed." Itachi said and Kuroka widened her eyes and was taken even more aback.
"H-How did you know that? Nya." Kuroka questioned with her body shaking a bit.
Itachi brought out the file he took from the office earlier. "Thanks to this, it contains all the info on your master's precious research and what he was planning to do to your sister. Plus, before that I made an assumption based on my own knowledge of a similar situation I have witnessed before. Your sister was quite depressed when she first arrived at my friend's place, she wouldn't even talk to anyone for weeks." Itachi said and he could see the guilt rise in Kuroka's eyes.
"Then… why are you here? Nya." Kuroka asked with her eyes narrowed at Itachi.
"Simple, I wish to help. I know what's at the end of this path for you, and it's not pretty, so I would very much like to prevent you from going down this path and return you to your sister." Itachi replied with his unreadable stoic face so that Kuroka really couldn't tell if he was telling the truth or lying which made her be on guard. Itachi noticed this and let out a sigh before giving her a reassuring smile. "Let me tell you a story I told your sister." Itachi said and Kuroka raised her eyebrow in confusion. And Itachi told the exact same story he had told Koneko about the two brothers and how the older brother ended up taking the role of a criminal and slaughter their entire family, just to prevent a new world war and to protect his younger brother, and that the older brother eventually died at his brother's feet during their final battle.
Kuroka was taken aback by this story and felt sadness and some sort of comparison between herself and this older brother character. "Who are you?" Kuroka questioned as her body was shaking.
"I'm Itachi Sitri, the next head of the Sitri household." Itachi replied and Kuroka widened her eyes a bit.
"You're the strongest devil of our generation…" Kuroka uttered as she had heard of him before.
"I see you have heard of my title. Like you I'm an older sibling myself, I have a little sister whom I would want to protect more than anything. However, I know that this way will only lead to despair, unless you have someone to guide you through it that has been through the same as you and can help you avoid making mistakes that is. But I want to offer you a way out of this path, give you a chance to spend some time with your sister. You may think shielding her from the truth is only good for her, but it's not, trust me on that." Itachi said and Kuroka looked down with grief and sadness in her eyes.
"How can you help me…?" Kuroka questioned in a low tone.
"I will present your case to the four Maous, once they approve of this then you will be free." Itachi replied and reached his hand out to the nekomata. Kuroka looked at him in awe, and slowly reached her hand out before taking it back a little out of hesitation. "Trust me." Itachi said and Kuroka looked into his eyes that was filled with nothing but kindness, she then looked at his hand and reached out for it and grabbed it. "Let's go."
"Nya…" Kuroka accepted his offer.
The very next morning, Itachi was standing in front of the Four Maous with Kuroka by his side. "So, as you all can understand. She only did this to protect her little sister, she is not dangerous, she's just a loving older sister." Itachi said while bowing and Sirzechs looked through the file Itachi had taken from the office of Kuroka's former master. "Please, as older siblings yourself, surely you can understand."
"It-tan…" Serafall uttered with her face and eyes filled with sorrow, she then looked over to Sirzechs whom had a stern expression but his eyes were also filled with sorrow.
"Itachi-kun, although I can understand her reasoning she still killed her own master which would mean she is a Stray Devil. I'm sorry but there is nothing we can do on the matter." Sirzechs said as the leader of the underworld, not as a good friend whom would want nothing more than to help him out, which he did, but his duties as a Maou and the consideration he had to take for all devils came first.
"Very well then, you leave me with no choice." Itachi said while still bowing and they all looked at him in confusion, even Kuroka didn't know what he was planning. But she gave him a look that said it was okay, and that's she was happy for all he had tried to do for her and Shirone.
"What do you mean by that?" Ajuka asked, and the very next thing Itachi said shocked everyone.
"I will take her in as a part of my peerage. I will accept responsibility for her from now on." Itachi declared and all the Four Maous looked at him in shock and surprise, while Kuroka looked at him in awe. "You said the problem was that she was a Stray Devil, well if I take her in as a part of my peerage she wouldn't be considered a stray anymore, now would she?"
"Heh, leave it to you to find a way out of it." Sirzechs smirked and found no reason to object.
"But Sirzechs-chan, It-tan will-" Searfall was worried what would happen to her brother if he took in a Stray Devil as his peerage member.
"I have made up my mind, nee-san. I will accept all the consequences that follows with my decision." Itachi assured as he couldn't care less what people he didn't even care about thought of him.
"… Fine, do as you please…" Serafall sighed at how stubborn her precious little brother could be, well she would still love him regardless of his decision.
"Then I believe this is settled, unless the two of you have any objections?" Sirzechs looked over to Ajuka and Falbium.
"None here." Ajuka said with a small smirk.
"None here either." Falbium said.
"Thank you all very much." Itachi bowed.
As they were walking out of the meeting with the Maous, Kuroka looked at Itachi in awe over what he did. "You didn't have to do all that for me. Nya." She didn't want to cause any problems to Itachi whom had been nothing but nice to her and Shirone from what she had heard.
"I know, I wanted to." Itachi replied and stopped in the middle of the hallway and summoned forth a Queen piece in his hand. "I know that you originally took two bishops from your former master, but I assume since you have grown stronger since then, a Queen will suffice more than enough. I hereby welcome you, Kuroka, to my peerage and the household of Sitri." Itachi said and held the queen piece close to her chest as it began to glow, and entered her body.
"Are you sure you want to waste your queen on me? Nya." Kuroka questioned as she was fine with being given two Bishops pieces.
"I don't consider it a waste, you are powerful enough to take down a high-class devil, your definitely worth a queen." Itachi said as the old bishop pieces from Kuroka's former master fell out of her body and turned to dust. "You are a part of my family now, welcome." Itachi said with a warm loving smile and Kuroka could feel her heart beats increase.
She then gained a smile and jumped Itachi, hugging his right arm between her developing breasts. "You have peaked my interests, Itachi-sama, nya!" Kuroka purred like a cat while nuzzling her head up against his shoulder.
"Shall we go visit your sister? My sister is already at the Gremory mansion anyway so we might as well go." Itachi said and Kuroka just kept on purring.
"I will go anywhere you want me to go, nya." Kuroka replied and then let out a giggle.
"Very well then." Itachi formed the Sitri mark on her hand and then they teleported with a magic circle to the Gremory mansion.
Once they arrived everyone had a look of shock seeing Kuroka with Itachi and Shirone aka Koneko especially looked shocked, and when she called her onee-sama, everyone got on guard. "Relax, Kuroka is my new queen, she is a part of my peerage now." Itachi assured and they all looked at him in confusion while Kuroka just held onto Itachi's arms between her breasts which made Rias and Akeno looked a little jealous, and Sona looked angry, while Koneko looked warry and slightly conflicted over Kuroka hugging Itachi's arm like that.
"B-But she's a wanted criminal!" Rias pointed out the issue.
"She was pardoned today, because of this." Itachi threw the file onto the table and Rias and the other looked through it and widened their eyes in shock. "Kuroka and Shi- I mean Koneko's former master wanted to experiment on Koneko in his research to make Super Devils and Kuroka was forced to kill him. And then she was wrongfully accused of being power hungry. She did all this to protect her, and nothing more."
Koneko was shaking and looked at Kuroka with an expression that asked if this was true, and Kuroka simply looked down with a sad smile confirming it was. "Onee-sama!" Koneko ran up to Kuroka and hugged her while crying her heart out, Kuroka looked unsure of what to do here.
"Oh, come on, why are you crying Shirone? Nya." Kuroka looked at Koneko with a warm loving smile and Koneko looked at her with tears still running down her face. "Cheer up, Onee-chan is not going anywhere. Nya." Koneko then wiped her tears away with her hands, then Kuroka looked at her little sister with a teasing smirk. "By the way, onee-chan noticed how cute you looked when you saw me hugging Itachi-sama's arm. Better watch out, or else I might take him."
Koneko widened her eyes and blushed. "N-No it's not like that!" Koneko shouted and everyone whom didn't hear what Kuroka said had a look of confusion.
Then Kuroka leaped towards Itachi while hugging his arm once again between her breasts and looking at him with seductive eyes. "Hey, Itachi-sama, would you make a baby with me?"
"Huh?" Itachi questioned with his eyes slightly widened.
""EEEHHHHHHH?!"" Rias, Akeno and Sona shouted in unison while Koneko froze.
"H-Hey! Itachi is my fiancé! So back off!" Rias declared and grabbed Itachi's other arm. "If his going to make babies with anyone it's going to be me!"
"Ara, ara, it's not fair you all take him for yourself, I would very much like to make babies with him as well." Akeno giggled and wrapped her arms around Itachi while pressing her breasts up against his back.
Then to further Itachi's surprise, Koneko hugged him around the waist with her cute little face looking up at him. "My spot." Koneko said with a stoic face in an almost demanding tone also making him wonder what spot she was referring to.
"H-Hey! Let onii-sama go!" Sona shouted.
"Ohhh, are you perhaps a brocon?" Kuroka teased making Sona blush.
"Wh-Wh-Wh-What?! No I most certainly am not!" Sona shouted but all the girls gave her an expression that said "yeah, right." Which angered her further.
Itachi blinked his eyes repeatedly as he had come to the realization, all these girls had fallen in love with him. All he could think was how? And when had this happened? He then began recalling each and every conversation, he had saved Rias from the wolf when they were children and later on declared that he liked her for who she was, oh dear. With Akeno all he could think off was the conversation he had about her mother and father and when he encouraged her not to hate her for who she was because of her blood. With Koneko it was that one conversation in that tower when he told the story about those two brothers and talked about Kuroka and helped her get along with Rias and Akeno and bringing Kuroka back to her. And with Kuroka it was of course because he had helped her get pardoned and accepted her into his peerage. 'Oh, dear…' Itachi thought.
That's the end for now!
Kuroka is the first member of Itachi's peerage and I was planning on giving her the title of the Cat Sin of Lust. And although Itachi now knows the girls have a thing for him, he will not really do anything about it. They will make their advances towards him and he will take it with his stoic expression or smile and ignore their advances and keep pretending that his clueless, but of course when the time calls for it he will show affection in his own way towards them. But the question is, will they be able to capture his heart like he did theirs?
Now in the next chapter I will introduce the second member of Itachi's peerage.
Anyway, leave a review!
(Responds to reviews)
Tsukoblue: Kuroka is not a strength type like Koneko, she's more of a magic type which is why she fits for bishop or queen. And I'm not including other Naruto characters.
Devilscreed: Huh, I was never that good at biology so… honest mistake.
frankieu: Thanks, and he certainly will do what is best for his future children.
Shadic21: Thank you, hope you liked it.
The Storm Master 567: LOL, true, also thanks.
darkxlunatiic: Thanks!
StarKiller Groot: Escanor is from a different time period, the world of dxd takes place in the modern ages the 21-century, which is where I want all of his peerage members to be from.
Morregen: Because it is difficult to find peerage members that fit the sins that are from the 21-century time period. And I want Itachi to be the only character to have been given a second chance instead of overusing it by having multiple characters being granted a second chance.
LMaltez: That is true, and noted.
CoCoDu11: Noted, also Itachi's max power and his full potential will be that of the level of a Dragon God.
Vespasian25: Noted.
fenixrojo36: I'm not mad, and I will take your ideas into consideration.
youngdrgn: Thanks!
adislt: I'm not bringing in any other Naruto characters, and if I make a younger brother for Itachi and Sona I will not make him like Diodora and Raiser.
Shu Ouma GC: I see, good point, and that might be a good idea should I ever decide to make a sequel for this story.
Guest: Okay, noted on the Sairaorg thing and the OC thing.
Demonwarrior611: I'm sorry, but I'm not bringing in other Naruto characters.
luis5224: Thanks, and I am sorry but what I have planned for Harry Newgate makes him required to be the Sin of Pride. And I haven't seen Medaka's Box so I wouldn't be able to give it a proper consideration without watching the anime first. And again with the incest is wincest, it always makes me laugh a little.
ThePlexx: Thanks, and noted.
LastPenis: Hopefully this is a solution.
Natsu325: That is one way to go about it that could work.
the shadow of nature: Why thank you.
duked: Thanks, and that is one way to go about it.
ronlol2: Thanks!
desdelor97: Thanks!
Zaikort: Thanks, and noted.
GunBlade2018: Thanks! Noted, and it is decided on it being a harem fic.
Spartastic 4: LOL, I wrote Alpha in my own language (Norwegian), and noted.
nickclause: Thanks!
Tobias27: Thanks! And you tell me how you think it went. And your support as well as all the other readers are very much appreciated.
Baron Bolt: Those are good suggestions, but I'm not including any other Naruto characters.
Guest: Sorry, but I'm not including any other Naruto characters. Because I want the whole second chance thing be unique to Itachi only in this story.
Dat Boi: Thanks!
qunbulah: Thanks! And I will!
AR 1993: Thanks! And that is one excuse to go with that.
lazyguy90: LOL! Thanks!
55narutoboy: Thanks! And maybe, we'll see. And although Kuroka used to be a bishop she has grown stronger and could be a queen. And that sounds like a sin of Itachi (Although wouldn't be any point in using it as people would just start to ask why he is the sin of betrayal which would have to lead him telling them about his past, which I don't intend on happening in this fic).
Guest: He heard Serafall say it… plus he has the mind of a 21-year-old man that was as wise as a sage.
Thunderbird29: It sounds cool, but I don't want to bring in any other Naruto characters.
andresskorskiruiz: Thanks!
Tasty Food: Thanks! And I will get to work on Minato with my co-writer when we can find the time. And I'm not planning on discontinuing either of them. And Damian will share some similarities to Ban but he will still be somewhat different. My original design for Damian is that he has two states sort of, or personalities I guess, one where he is serious and at full power and one where he is perverted and has no shame. And that with Bob and Damian getting equal amount of pawn pieces wouldn't work considering Bob is going to be stronger therefor more pawns.
YukiNonShita: Thanks, and hope this is a better option, going back and forth to the review section and PM section would take longer than this.
Mythic Imagination: Thanks, and yes I am sure.
merendinoemiliano: Thanks!
atchoum35: Thanks!
Fanfiction0000: Thanks!
NatsuErzaDragneelSusanoo: Aha, thanks.
Shirosaki345: I am and thank you!
Mr. Haziq: Now you know!
seant5054: I will consider it.
VegetaUchiha: Hope you will enjoy it when the time comes.
AfterlifeXD: Noted.
Guest: Noted, also I do watch it, and the fight was good, still think Boruto is a shitty character but the fight was good.
O: I will consider it.
Logic Soldier: If you don't like it, then why not write your own story? Or make a challenge to get someone else to write it. No need to call me lazy and unoriginal just because I like this pairing.
Guest: Bob is supposed to be a lazy name, he is the Sin of Sloth after all, and he stays.
Dr4g0nb411z: Thanks, glad to hear it.
jensen6: Thank you.
-Later!
