Issei would like to think he is not a very whiny person. Sure, he does whine, but mostly to himself, internally, with only Ddraig and Solomon being unfortunate enough to hear that, but today was especially spelling out to be a day worth whining about. Earlier today, which was 4 days after they rescued Asia, he had gotten a call from Rias, stating that she managed to talk with Sona. Apparently, Sona was willing to push forth some forged documents to have Asia as a transfer student, meaning no exam would be required.
Asia has been very excited about the prospect of joining him and Ingvild at Kuoh Academy, and she shows it every day. Not even a week around her, and he came to like her very much for her kind and gentle nature. But maybe perhaps for another reason too…He used his [Observe] on her the other day, and what he found shocked him to his core.
(Hereditary Skill) [Dragon Tamer] (Level MAX): By being of a special bloodline, you have been granted this skill that enables you to tame the mightiest beasts - Dragons! This skill's effects are passive, and by default, they make dragons more attracted to you, giving them the desire to defend you and not let harm come to you.
Asia Argento, as Ddraig also explained, was a Dragon Tamer. She was likely not aware of her lineage either, which explains a lot. Since Issei had a dragon-type Gear, this also affected him, making him more attracted to her in some ways. Still, he didn't mind much. Whether his desire was the result of the skill or not, he was the one to decide to save her, which means taking in the consequences of his actions as well.
Besides, this doesn't seem like some mind control skill, and Asia was not the kind of person to manipulate others, he could tell that much. The poor girl was even taking pity on Raynare of all people! During those 4 days, she had been settling in, getting herself more comfortable. Kuroka and Ingvild went shopping with her two days ago to get her some more clothes since she didn't have much anyway.
He has to say, though, it was pretty easy to raise his RP with her. All he did was be himself: kind and whatnot, and the RP points just flowed in. He gained 10 of them in 4 days! Maybe it was his CHA stat doing the work, but he had doubts. Maybe she was just that easygoing? He needs to check her stats more in-depth when he gets the chance to see if she is perhaps having some kind of Status Effect.
This simply didn't smell all that clean to him.
But that aside, as stated, she had been pretty kind to Raynare as well, and despite the fallen repeatedly telling her off and avoiding her, Issei witnessed a miracle. Her RP was going up. Or down, considering how you wish to look at negative values. Before it was minus 25, now it is minus 22.
He doesn't quite get what the deal is there, but he won't question it.
For now, he had something more stressful to think about than Raynare: Sona Sitri. As stated, Rias gave him a call to come to the Student Council room to talk with Sona, and she'd be present too to further smooth things out. He really hopes she won't ask for something outrageous, otherwise who knows what he might do. He was here to negotiate a place for Asia, but if need be, he will pay the price, not her! He won't be joining any peerage, and he was already contracted to Rias, but he thinks Sona already knows her options are limited as well.
But currently, she is the one holding the edge.
"I swear, that Sitri girl is bound to say something." Solomon said, whining about the incoming meeting as he felt a strong distaste towards Sona. "I'd love to see her try to defy us once under the power of my Seal!"
"Usually, I am the one with a hot head. Calm yourself, Solomon, we must remember the sensibility of the situation." Ddraig said, being the voice of reason. "We cannot do something rash."
"I won't bend the knee to those beings, Ddraig, nor will I allow Issei to!"
"Christ! I get it, Solomon, please calm down! We are here anyway, so best get the show on the road." Issei said to them as he got in front of the door and knocked, waiting for a response.
"Come in." And sure enough, said response came swiftly and he pushed the door open. And there she was; Sona Sitri, sitting behind her desk, looking at him through her glasses with her pawn, Gen, beside her, and Rias, who was standing on the opposite side. "Well, well. Mister Hyoudou, or rather said, Red Dragon Emperor."
"Surprise!" Issei said in a mild show of cockiness and mockery, but he was quick to continue. "And you are Sona Sitri, heiress of the Sitri House and current Student Council President."
"Indeed." Sona said, maintaining a neutral expression. "However, I must say, although I prefer to keep the two roles separated, your past actions left quite a sour taste in my mouth. Imagine my surprise when Rias told me you wish for a favor."
Issei's braw twitched, trying to maintain his calm. "How much did Rias tell you?"
"Everything I need to know." Sona replied, keeping vague, but Rias chimed in.
"I told her everything about the fallen and how you saved Asia Argento from them." She stated. "Additionally, I made sure to make it very clear that you, or Asia, won't be joining her peerage."
"A harsh limit to my pool of options, I admit, but one I can live with." Sona said, fixing her glasses. "I won't apologize for my earlier actions, but with that said, I also do not expect an apology for the bluff regarding the Juggernaut Drive."
"Works for me, I was not planning to apologize anyway." Issei replied. "So, how about we cut to the chase? I want Asia Argento in Kuoh Academy, you said you could offer some forged documents to do it. What do you desire in exchange?"
Sona smirked. "I see you are a man who likes to focus on business. Very well." She leaned over to a drawer, pulled it open, and laid down a file on it, Issei got closer and took a look at the file before him. "Since you went and killed Strays, my peerage was very busy covering it all up. That being said, however, your actions were beneficial long-term, but seeing as you stopped killing them, their numbers are slowly building back up."
"So, you wish for me to go and kill Strays?" Issei asked, confused about her task.
"No, I wish you to deal with another, related thing." She continued, flipping the file to reveal a picture Issei recognized. The Asura he killed… "This is the Queen Piece of my father's peerage. Recently, his piece magically returned to him, which was quite a surprise. This being was a hybrid, half Asura and half-human, which made it possible to reincarnate it, and it was quite difficult to locate."
"I know of him." Issei replied, deciding not to hide the details. "I was the one to kill him."
Issei admitting it before them didn't come as much of a surprise to Sona or Rias, but Gen did flinch a bit. "You killed a being similar to a demi-god?"
"That Asura was not a demi-god, I assure you." Issei replied. "He was around the level of a low, maybe mid-class being."
"Unfortunately, you are not wrong there. As it turns out, Asura and humans do not mix well, as the human side of their being drags down their power greatly. My father was unaware of this at the time." Sona continued. "However, what I wish in exchange for Asia Argento's spot in this Academy is made up of two things: Answers and service. First, I want to know how you gave my father's piece back."
Issei hummed a bit, thinking of his course of action. He couldn't reveal to her that he can extract pieces, but then again, they likely suspect or are aware of that already. Additionally, he cannot reveal the secret of the Draconic Pieces yet either. Not in full detail, at least. "I used it." He said, trying to be vague. "I have special abilities, Sona. I cannot tell you what, but I can tell you this much: What I did with the Queen Piece caused it to appear back in your father's set while also giving me the desired result."
"Hmm." Sona weighed that answer. "Very well, I will take that answer. Furthermore, the service is simple. The reason why Saji is here is that it concerns him."
"Me?" Saji asked, pointing at himself.
"Yes." Sona answered, giving him a slight glance. "Red Dragon Emperor, you are hereby to train Saji."
A small silence fell over the room as she said those words, but eventually, Issei broke the silence.
"Huh?"
"Wait a minute, President, what do you mean by training? Me, being trained by him?" Saji asked, equally surprised by this. "I am doing just fine on my own!"
"Perhaps you are, Saji. But training with a heavenly dragon is bound to be more beneficial. Especially considering you hold one of the Vritra Gears." Sona said, but then Issei's gear manifested.
"Vritra?" Ddraig said, chiming in. "Well, I didn't think I'd hear that name again. One of the Five Great Dragon Kings, and the only one among them to be crowned an Evil Dragon. Yet, here he is now, broken into pieces."
Sona flinched hearing Ddraig. "The Dragon of Domination." She muttered.
"Umm. What do you mean by broken into pieces?" Saji asked, curious.
"I see your King has not told you." Ddraig said, a chuckle escaping his lips. "Now why is that, Sona Sitri? It is important information."
"Three other Vritra Gears are in the possession of the Grigori, so they were unimportant." Sona said, defending herself. "I told Saji he had a Vritra Gear, and I told him all I know about them."
"Except, perhaps, that the soul of Vritra is in all gears."
"W-what?! I knew it was a Dragon-Type Gear, but I believed it was artificial, like the Twice Critical! There is not an actual dragon sealed inside them, right?" Saji asked, to which Rias commented.
"What a bad call, Sona." She muttered, taking the chance to throw a jab at the pawn she took so much pride in.
"Vritra's soul is broken into five pieces. You hold only one of them, and as Sitri here said, the Grigori holds three. If you get enough together, you could resurrect Vritra's soul. Then, you'd have a set of Gears worthy of even the Longinus tier." Ddraig said, and his words seemed to actually make Saji more interested and invested in his Sacred Gear, as he brought it out. His gear resembled a chameleon with a deformed face. It was black, with golden details and dark-purplish gems that looked like eyes.
"This one is the Absorption Line." Saji said, showing his gear. "From what I got from Sona doing a bit of research on it, it allows me to either absorb or transfer power from opponents, allies, and objects using some kind of lines I can shoot out with it."
"I remember it. Once, a previous wielder of mine worked together with a user of this exact gear." Ddraig said, recalling that time. "With training, you could make multiple such tendrils, and using your body as the main hub for it, transfer power from Issei to other allies. With the Boosted Gear's ability to multiply its wielder's power, if you were to use that gear…"
"Then I'd be able to power my allies with your aid almost endlessly. " Saji finished the sentence, catching on. Granted, Rias and Sona did catch on to the more subtle implications of that. "Woah, I never realized my gear was that powerful."
"It all depends on how you use it." Ddraig finished. "Now, Issei, what do you say? Training him should not be that difficult, and I will also chime in to help."
"You seem to have more knowledge about his gear, so it works." Issei said, agreeing to the deal. Sona picked up on that, and she nodded her head. "So, should I tell Asia to prepare herself?"
"I will get the documents sorted out." Sona said, keeping her word. "As long as you can get Saji here trained and progress nicely, there won't be any issues. This arrangement will go on until I say your aid is no longer needed."
"Umm. Actually, Sona? Can I request that, even after that, I can ask Issei and, Ddraig, was it? Sorry, I don't do well with names."
"It's alright, you got it well." Ddraig replied to Saji.
"Thanks. I wish to ask if it'd be ok to still train with them?" Saji asked, and Sona looked at him briefly before she shrugged her shoulders.
"I see no issue with it, as long as you don't neglect your duties on the student council." Sona added, and Saji gave her a small smile.
"Thank you, President." He replied, offering a small bow, then he turned to Issei. "I will be in your care, Red Dragon."
"Simply call me Ise, I told you that before as well!" Issei told him, and Saji perked up immediately hearing him.
Y-yes, sorry."
"Well, if that is all, I guess there is nothing else for us here." Issei said, turning around and going to the door. "We can start doing some work tomorrow, I need to get home and tell Asia the good news." And so, Issei left, returning to his home.
Though, as always, the System was making this more interesting.
START HAULING ASS! - Co-op Version.
Main Objective: Now that Genshirou Saji is going to be training under you, this gives you the chance to also train! This quest can be completed together with your normal daily quest for training.
Main Objective Reward: 50K EXP to both parties involved.
It gives less EXP than his normal one, but that was ok. This also seemed to be a repeatable quest, and if what he read was right, then that means more EXP for him, and some for Saji. He kinda felt bad he'd be getting more from this than him, but then again, he was nearing level 30, at which point he'd lose his daily training quest most likely and be slowed down in progress again.
That had him thinking. Kuoh, right now, was like a cleared area. All dungeons in it are done, there are only the stragglers left in terms of enemies, like the Strays, which are not a constant EXP source. And at this point, nor are they enough. Kuoh was like a spent battery. Issei had already gotten everything it could offer him, and now he was scrapping for whatever was left.
Only his quests, and whatever else he could get.
So, he either needed more quests, or he had to find a new location for EXP. Naturally, his thoughts went to the Underworld, where the 'Hells' of all mythologies are located. From what Solomon once told him, the Underworld is a vast land, separated into multiple territories split among the pantheons. There were bound to be more powerful enemies there for him to face for EXP.
But currently, he has no way to get there. Sure, Kuroka could teleport them there, but she was still a wanted criminal by the Devils, who currently held the most active territories. He will not risk her for his own benefit.
Plus, if he was right, this new quest, combined with his current one, the EXP bonuses from his ring and title, should grant him a fair amount of EXP. He was level 27, meaning 3 more levels and he'd become level 30, leaving him without the training quest. Now that sucked, and not nicely.
Still, it was useless to whine about it. It was inevitable, but because of that, he had to adapt and keep going. Who knows? Maybe he will find some way to get more EXP some other way.
Arriving home, Issei walked through the door, and sure enough, he was greeted by Asia. "Ise! Welcome back!" She greeted him, which in turn announced to the other residents of the Hyoudou household of his arrival as well.
"Nya! How was it?" Kuroka asked, coming from around the corner with Ingvild as well. Raynare, for her part, simply lay on the sofa, not caring about their business.
"I got good news." He began, smiling as he told them. "Sona Sitri agreed to push some forged documents for you, Asia, so you can attend Kuoh Academy with me and Ingvild starting Monday."
+5 RP with Asia Argento.
"That's great!" She said in joy. "I can't wait to meet everyone there!"
"But what did she want in exchange?" Ingvild asked, being the more skeptical one of the group.
"Nothing much, just to help train one of her peerage members." Issei said, and Kuroka seemed to recall someone.
"Is it that boy we caught at the junkyard that one time?" She asked.
"Junkyard?" Asia said in confusion.
"It happened before we even met Ingvild." Issei said, giving a quick explanation. "We were there to cure some Strays of their pieces, and Gen - as he likes being called apparently - or Saji, as he is most commonly known, happened to be around. We had him restrained and used him as a hostage, but we gave him back to his peerage."
"So, YOU DO know how to act in less pleasant ways." Raynare remarked, not bothering to look at them. Granted, this did give Issei an awkward feeling.
"I had to do what had to be done…" Issei said in his defense. "Anyway, that is not important right now. Yes, it is him who I will be training, starting tomorrow. That means we have the whole day to prepare for him."
"Nya! Are you going to use THAT?" Kuroka asked, feeling a bit worried.
"I'd prefer, not to lie." Issei admitted. "THAT place is more efficient, especially for me."
"But what if he starts to talk with his King and tells her all about it?" Ingvild asked, and Asia, the poor girl, was a bit confused.
"Are you talking about the dimension?" She asked, and they all nodded their heads.
"It is related to my secrets, after all." Issei added, crossing his arms. "Sure, it is still growing, and right now it is not much, but it still serves us well. That being said, it is not likely that Gen will figure everything out just from it, so there is little harm in using it."
"That makes sense…" Kuroka said slowly. "Should I also prepare some snacks for when he arrives?"
"He's here for training, not snacks!" Issei said, but then he continued. "All snacks should be given after the training."
+2 RP with Asia Argento.
He really should check if she had some kind of perk, but that should be done another day. Right now, there are other things to do. Namely, more training. His skills still needed to get up in levels.
He went inside his dungeon, again, and went straight for the training grounds. He supposed it was going to be another training session, like any other, but the System has surprised him.
Event Unlocked!
Since you have more than 7 RP tabs, with one being completed, this event was unlocked! In exchange for 50% of your current Yen, you will receive a one-time EXP boost of 200%, along with a 20% EXP bonus to your skills! This being said, be careful! The next amount of EXP received will be the one boosted, so if you got 100 EXP, well, I don't need to continue, do I?
"Guys…The System is messing with me again or something?" Issei asked, reading the prompt.
"I think this is supposed to be some form of reward." Solomon said, equally as confused. "Still, half your current money is no easy price! Not to mention this doesn't seem to have a fixed price, it is always half your current balance."
"Isn't this a good thing? This means we can abuse it even if we have only 10 Yen left."
"Well, yeah, but what about large sums of money?" Solomon pointed out the duality of the situation, which quickly sunk in. This event was a trade: EXP instead of money. Sure, if he has little money, giving half is not a big deal if he gets 200% more EXP, but when it comes to more it will be a big pocket burner. Was it worth it, currently? Currently, yes, it was worth it.
He activated the event.
So, 200% more EXP at the end of this? Not to mention 20% more EXP to his Skills? Well, time to put in the serious work then! First and foremost, the martial arts. [Power Punch] was first on his list, training it like always, first using his [Furious Fist] to get some EXP to that as well. After his combo was done, and it entered its cooldown, he went in with some more personal combos between [Power Punch] and [Power Kick], with the latter empowered by [Blazing Heel Strike], which in turn resulted in more EXP to multiple skills at once! He also threw a few [Shield-Breaking Punch] strikes, raising that one's level as well.
After those were done, for now at least, he moved to his elemental Youjutsu skills, working on those as well. But he only did a bit of work on those before moving to his magic. First, he worked on his fire abilities, which thanks to all the bonuses, went up by 130 every time. That was a total of a 30% EXP bonus. Once that one was done, for now, he moved to his water magic, then his shadow magic. Shadow magic, overall, was perhaps the easiest one to level up currently out of all his magics.
He had more spells for it, and their costs were not as high. Especially the main one, with the tendrils. He eventually finished there as well, and he was pleased to see his progress. And then, Solomon called the end of the training session. Now, he did wonder how the System calculated the EXP bonuses and the order in which they were applied…
Note: All EXP bonuses, no matter the source, stack based on a priority order, with the Titles holding MAX priority followed by Perks, Equipment, Location Bonuses, and finally, anything else, like events.
That answered that.
Congratulations! You are now level 28!
And that answered the question on possible EXP total, wow! He must have gained huge amounts of it if he leveled up! He needs to remember to use that event again someday!
Regardless, it was time to call it here. With the day over, Issei did his routine of having dinner with the girls, then reading himself for bed, thankful that Kuroka didn't come this time to have a late-night love-making session. She must have been tired too, so Issei simply went to his bedroom with the intent to sleep.
However…
While Issei was in the dungeon, the girls had been talking among themselves in the living room. Namely, Kuroka was very interested in Ingvild. Namely, about a certain thing the girl had been doing late at night. "Come on, Ingvi~. I know you did it, nya!"
Ingvild, however, simply blushed and tried to dodge Kuroka's words. "I have no idea what you are meaning!"
"Please, do recall I am all alone here whilst you and Issei are at Kuoh…Did you not think I wouldn't notice how your sheets seem to be awfully moist in a certain zone?" Kuroka said, and Ingvild's blush and silence confirmed it. "Nya! I knew it! You have been masturbating to me and Issei doing it, haven't you?"
Again, nothing but silence from the Leviathan heir. Asia was currently in her room, preparing for her day at Kuoh, and Raynare was in the kitchen, preparing dinner, despite her displeasure doing so. This left Kuroka alone to talk with Ingvild, who after a bit of fidgeting about, talked. "Yes." She confessed. "B-but you too are very loud when you do it, and my room is right next to yours!"
"Nya! Don't lie! I always use magic to block sound!" Kuroka rebuked, catching her in her lie. "Now, I don't mind being watched by a fellow friend whom I share my man with, but Issei might be uncomfortable. If you are pent-up, why not simply ask Issei for some aid?"
"Ask him for aid?" Ingvild echoed, gulping a bit. "I-I don't know, Kuroka. I am not as confident as you."
"Nya! Please, dear, I am not THAT confident." Kuroka said, trying to act more humble. "I have just been with Issei for a good while, that's all. Long enough to know what kind of man he is, and how he thinks. And I KNOW he is not some senseless pervert who'd break our hearts, which is why I am not bothered by him getting a Harem."
"I know." Ingvild replied softly. "But I guess I am nervous about making a move."
"Well, Issei is quite busy lately, so it is very likely he won't be making one that soon." Kuroka said, stating the truth. "You need to go up to him, Ingvi, and lay your claim. Like I did!"
"Didn't you promise him that as a reward?" Ingvild pointed out, which did kind of surprise Kuroka that she recalled that small detail.
"Nya! It was a move to keep him motivated and help him study for his exam!" She said in defense. "Besides, it's not like we need that kind of excuse to do it anymore. Whenever I need some, and he is willing - and trust me, he is ALWAYS willing - we can go for a few good rounds before bed."
"And everything is mutual?" Ingvild questioned further.
"Of course! I wouldn't force him, and he is not forcing me either! That being said, I am also not forcing you, Ingvi. I am simply suggesting it since you seem quite pent up." Kuroka said, and Ingvild shifted in her seat awkwardly. "Oh my…Since when?"
"A few nights ago? My fingers just…Stopped doing it for me." Ingvild confessed, feeling embarrassed.
"You poor, poor girl. Have you tried toys or online porn?" Kuroka questioned further, but Ingvild slowly nodded.
"Nothing that goes in, though." The Levithan descendant confessed. "I want to keep it for Issei."
"I see. Well, at least we caught it early." Kuroka said, sounding somewhat relieved. "Trust me, being frustrated from lack of action is not fun. But that only goes to reinforce my statement! You need to get some release, and Issei can grant it to you. Trust me, Ingvi, he will not go further than you wish." She finished, looking at Ingvild who seemed to be thinking about it.
And eventually, the girl replied.
"How do I go about it?"
ATTENTION! SMUT AHEAD! SKIP IF THIS AIN'T FOR YA!
And this is how we found ourselves in this situation, as Issei walked into his room, only to see Ingvild on his bed, wearing only her underwear with a strong blush on her face. "Ingvild?" Issei asked softly, then quickly brought her RP tab up. She was not yet MAX level, she was 37 points away from that, and he knows for a fact the last 10 are only Quest-earned.
So why was she there, in her underwear? This had Kuroka written all over it.
"Issei…" She began, slowly, trying to find the courage. "I…I need your help."
"Ok…" Issei closed the door behind him, so no one peeked in. "What do I need to help you with?"
Ingvild looked away, blushing as she felt herself grow moist just from being there in that specific situation. The anticipation of what she was about to do aroused her. However, she needed this. Ever since she saw Kuroka and Issei for the first time, she had been pleasuring herself every 2 days or so. However, the more she did it, the more she yearned for the real thing, until, recently, her toys and online material stopped doing it for her.
She needed the real thing…She needed Issei.
So, slowly, she took her legs out from underneath herself and laid back, slowly spreading her legs to reveal something that had Issei surprised. She was wet. Like, really wet! Her panties, the beautiful pale lilac color, were stained with a clear mark on them! "Please…I need help to relieve myself. I can't- I cannot do it by myself anymore! I need you, Issei. Please…"
"Ingvild…" Issei said slowly, gulping. He didn't expect her to come BEGGING to him, not like this! He was pretty sure he was still pretty far from that point in his harem where they'd come to him for release, even begging him for action! Yet, here he was standing, proven wrong. Or was he? "Alright-"
"But no actual sex!" Ingvild suddenly said, which took a good chunk of wind from Issei's sails. "Sorry, I just- I am not ready for that yet. I was wondering if it is ok to just…Do other things?"
"Other things? Such as?" Issei asked slowly, watching Ingvild think.
"Well, Kuroka said I could use my breasts." Ingvild said, reaching behind herself and unclasping her bra, then pull the straps down, letting her breasts fully free and allowing Issei to set his eyes on her pink nipples, which were standing erect in the air. "I- I am very self-conscious about them, how big they are…And I know you like them, so maybe, for starters, you could play with them?"
Issei once again gulped, trying not to push too hard too fast for her. "Are you certain, Ingvild? Once I start, I can get pretty wild."
"I am. Just promise me you won't penetrate me. I am not ready for that yet." She said again, and Issei nodded. He could do that, definitely so. So, with that in mind, Issei began to take off his top clothing. Revealing his body to her, the scars he earned in his battles, along with his chiseled abdomen. Increasing physical stats also resulted in his body showing the appropriate changes, so that was nice.
Issei then climbed onto the bed, and Ingvild backed away a bit from shyness and a bit of fear. She'd never done such things before, so she was understandably on edge about it. Yet, she kept her gaze on Issei as he moved towards her, Ingvild laying on her back as he went above her and raised his hand. Ingvild then gasped as he touched her breast, her breath hitching for but a second.
She felt this before when playing with herself, but having someone else touch her was different, in a way. Issei's hands were bigger than hers…Rougher as well. She moaned as he toyed with her breast, being gentle in his approach before he bent down a bit. Ingvild wondered briefly what he was about to do, but then her mouth let out another moan, louder than before. He was licking her nipple, and she felt him suck a bit too!
He was sucking on her boob as a baby would, but she didn't find it weird…She found it nice. The feeling was giving her so much pleasure, she was already feeling herself growing closer to her orgasm just from him playing with her boobs! She'd yet to remove her damp panties, which by now were failing to contain her fluids.
Issei, in his work, noticed this. He stopped briefly, then looked up at Ingvild, all the while a hand continued to grope her. "You are getting so wet, Ingvild. More than normal from my experience." Ingvild took a second to reply, getting her focus.
"I am…" However, she then just went and said it. "I am pent up, ok?!" She half-shouted, then covered her face with her hands in shame. 'I need release. I need you to bring me release, Issei…" Then, slowly, he removed her hands from her face, stopping his groping too.
"All you needed to do was ask." And then he kissed her, lovingly so, which surprised her. His arms wrapped around her, pressing her breasts against his chest as she rose to cradle herself in his lap. From this position, as she was being raised and their kiss deepened, she could feel the stiff erection Issei was getting, making her feel bad for being selfish. But then she recalled something.
The two broke the kiss, gasping for air. "Issei, let me serve you." She said, leaning onto him.
"Are you sure? We cannot kiss after…" Issei warned her, but Ingvild made up her mind and nodded, moving so Issei was now with his legs slightly spread as she then moved her rear above his head. Kuroka told her about this position called 69, saying it was the best for this kind of action. Although Ingvild will admit, it was embarrassing, as Issei now had a full view of her vagina.
Yet, she didn't let that stop her. She had to please him as well! She worked on his zipper, pulling it down and then moving his underwear down, allowing his dick to rise before her. She hesitated a bit as she saw it, her eyes widening. "So this is your…" She gulped. She'd only seen it when he was doing Kuroka before! This was the stiff dick that went inside Kuroka, claimed her, and made her mewl like a cat in heat with each thrust.
And Ingvild just stared at it, slowly, before she recovered and went to work, planting a kiss on it slowly at first before she began to lick it gently. She had to admit, the taste was strange, but not revolting, somehow. But as she worked on him slowly, she felt a slight chill on her pussy, looking back at Issei to see him moving her panties to the side. "I-Issei!"
"You are getting wetter and wetter, Ingvild." Issei said, looking straight at her pussy, which only embraces the poor girl more. However, Ingvild didn't get the chance to say anything else as she moaned loudly when Issei ran his fingers on her pussy. "You really need release."
"Ah~" She moaned as his fingers ran over her pussy, rubbing against her clit briefly which sent pulses of pleasure all through her. She couldn't focus on his cock at all in this state, as her body just froze in place and moaned as he worked on her, and then, she felt something wet against her, moving.
Issei had begun to eat her out, something Ingvild did not expect, and due to how pent up she was, the moment his tongue went over her clit, she moaned loudly and her pussy spasmed, gushing out fluid all over Issei's face, the boy being caught off-guard and closing his eyes as she released her pent-up frustration.
"Damn, Ingvi." Issei said, surprised at how hard she came, and fast as well! "Are you alright? You came quite hard."
"Y-Yes…" Not quite. Her legs felt like gelatin, and she was breathing hard, not to mention she was sweating like crazy! This was completely different from when she masturbated, way different! This was better, way better! This was…This was…
What it meant to be with a man.
The touch of a man, which a woman's body craved, could bring out a maiden's true desire. The touch that released them from their constraints and offered them a sweet, sweet feeling of pleasure and bliss, even if temporary.
This was why Kuroka liked it so much. But Ingvild also knew it felt so good because it was with Issei. The man THEY chose to do this with, the one THEY chose to break their constraints and let their hearts run wild!
And she wanted to repay him.
"Alright, I think we- Woah!" Suddenly, Ingvild went down on his dick again, but instead of kissing it or licking it, she went all the way, deepthroating his cock in one go. Granted, she began to gag immediately, yet didn't stop and began to bob her head up and down his length.
"I-Ingvil-Oh fuck - What has gotten into you?" Issei asked, confused by her sudden outburst of energy, but not stopping her. Yet, to answer his question, it was simple. Ingvild wanted to taste how the essence of a man, which granted women children, tasted like. She wanted to know the taste of the substance that Kuroka liked and craved so much that she so often went to him!
She wanted to know; she wanted to feel it gush down her throat; she wanted to taste it; she wanted to PLEASE Issei, to give him an experience he will never forget! Among his harem, she will make sure to claim a spot, so he can enjoy her body whenever he wishes! Because now, she felt how it feels to be a woman, even if it was a weak taste.
"Ingvild, I- Shit, I can't-!" And then, she got her reward, as Issei thrusts his hips forth and releases his essence into her mouth and throat, giving Ingvild what she wanted. The girl quivered again as she tasted it, feeling the strong salty and sour taste and, and sensing its thickness.
It was too much for her, and before she knew it, she came again, her entire body shaking. She then gulped down on his cum, making sure to leave his cock clean before she pulled it out, watching slowly go down. She took labored breaths, and finally, she was also coming down from her high.
"Damn, Ingvild, that was…I am pretty sure not even Kuroka went that hard!" Issei said, just as Ingvild turned around to him, placing herself next to him on the bed. "I didn't think you had that in you…"
"Neither did I. I just…Once I came the first time, I just felt like my mind blacked out for a second, then when I was back, I just wanted to continue." She said, slowly as she was somewhat tired. "That was…Great." She said with a satisfied smile on her face.
+20 RP with Ingvild Leviathan!
The two of them lay in bed for a bit, recovering before Ingvild decided to head to the shower, being offered to go in first by Issei. However, as she stood there, she couldn't help but trace a hand to her pussy, recalling the feeling of Issei's lips on her lower ones. She rubbed her fingers on it, then brought them to her lips, tasting herself.
And she enjoyed it, knowing Issei kissed her there. The thought alone made her eyes glow.
And revealed the hearts in them.
END OF THE SMUT!
The day was here! Issei was waiting for Saji to appear at his doorstep so they can begin with his overall training, waiting for him in the living room whilst watching TV. The girls were each doing their own thing, with Raynare currently helping Asia and Kuroka around the house. Not that she had a choice, really. Ingvild was in the bathroom, having a bath, meaning he had nothing else to do except wait on Saji.
And luckily, he didn't need to wait long, as the doorbell rang. Issei got up and went to the door, and true enough, Saji was there. "Yo, Saji." He greeted him.
"Good morning, Ise." Saji replied, then Issei invited him in, noticing that Saji was dressed in a tracksuit. "So, where are we going to train? Are we going to go outside of Kuoh, or do you have someplace in mind Kuroka can teleport us to?"
"I see you heard of her talents." Issei remarked.
"Sona kept us informed since, well, she was supposed to be an enemy at some point. She isn't here, right?" Saji asked, nervously.
"She is, but she is busy right now. It is only the two of us." Issei said as he got out his key. "Don't bother going further inside the house, there's no need."
"Huh? What do you mean by that?" Saji asked, then he saw Issei closing the door and putting a key in it, turning it. "Are you locking the- Wait, woah." Then he saw it. When Issei opened the door again, he saw a completely different location there! Now, THIS he had no idea about! Sona had no idea about this!
Shit, hopefully, he doesn't need to keep it a secret or something from her.
"This is my private little corner of heaven." Issei replied, taking a step inside. "Come on in, this is where we'll train."
Saji then followed Issei inside the dungeon, the door closing behind them. Issei led him through the halls, leading him to the training grounds where they were to train. Saji was nervous throughout all of this, mainly due to being scared of Issei's potential power. An entire pocket dimension was NOT easy to maintain, making him think he was before a true walking battery of magical power!
He was giving Issei too much credit, really.
"Now, since I assume you hold basic knowledge of your gear, we will be splitting your training into a few steps. First, we will train your body, then we will do your gear. At the end of it, we will spar a bit to test you. I promise to hold back, depending on your progress." Issei explained to him, using the plan devised by Solomon.
"Understood!" Saji replied, and so, they got work.
He had to admit, being a Devil might have had benefits as he saw Saji do things normal humans could not. When he compared him to himself when the system was not making him stronger, he dared to say Saji was better, but not anymore. Issei was more than double his level, and while for the human-devil comparison that might be barely enough in some cases, depending on the piece, that is not the case here.
He also had the Boosted Gear, making Issei able to double his stats multiple times over!
But back to Saji, his training was going smoothly, if a bit slow. He was definitely not an experienced reincarnated devil, most likely having been turned this year. But he was determined, he'd give him that. His training finished well, and Issei even noticed his STR stat went up by 1.
This meant others could also gain stats, but only through hard training. Still, as said, they continued with his sacred gear, Absorption Line, having him train it by constantly absorbing power from Issei as he boosted himself. Saji was doing pretty well for himself.
But then came the time to up the tempo a bit.
"Alright, Saji." Issei said, summoning forth his Boosted Gear and using one [Boost] "Time for the sparing section of our training."
Saji gulped, and truth be told he was right to be intimidated as Issei gave him no room for error. And truth be told, this also helped Issei get some more training in the end. Namely, with his healing skills.
"That…was brutal." Saji said as he lay on the ground, breathing heavily with bruises around his body. Issei then sat down beside him and began to use [First Heal] on Saji. "Healing magic?" The boy said softly, noticing how his bruises seemed to slowly fade. "You have to be kidding me, just how many tricks do you have?"
"Enough to surprise people every time." Issei replied coyly, using the skill several times despite its cooldown until Saji was back to full HP. "There. How do you feel?"
"Still fatigued, but overall, I feel great!" Saji said, getting up and stretching. "Your healing did seem a bit…slow, however."
At this, Issei flinched a bit. Shit, he noticed the cooldown? "I-I guess, I am not the best with healing magic just yet."
"I see. Well, I guess you are more of a fighter than a healer." Saji replied, and Issei was once again thankful regarding his [Lie] skill, and how Saji seemed to believe him. "Well then, I guess this marks the end of our first training session. Tomorrow, same time?"
"Sure, we will be waiting." Issei replied, then the two of them went to the exit, and once out, Saji noticed how dark it was outside.
"Damn, it's already this late?" Saji exclaimed, looking through the window. "We didn't notice any change in time in that place!"
"I guess it is because there is no way of telling the time. I really am not too sure how you are supposed to keep track of time there other than bringing in a clock or a watch." Issei replied, this time being truthful. He usually trained until Solomon told him to stop, so maybe he was the one to keep track of that.
"I see. Well, in that case, I should go. I have duties tomorrow, early in the morning, with the rest of the student council." Saji replied, then bowed out of courtesy. "Thank you again for your time, Red Dragon Emperor."
"Hey now, no need for that. Just call me Ise, I told you before." Issei said again, but then he returned the bow. "Thanks for being a good training partner."
After that Saji left, and Issei remained behind, just as the notifications kicked in. However, if he collects now, he won't gain any bonus EXP, so he went back inside the dungeon to collect the EXP rewards from the two training quests. In total, that was 150 EXP from his normal one and an additional 75K from the Co-op quest, and with the bonus of his ring, 161700 EXP was gained from his normal training quest, and 80850 from the second. That was a lot, but would it be enough for a level-up? Not even halfway there! The EXP requirements keep increasing every time, which Issei took note of a long time ago. It has gotten to the point where his training quests, even with the bonus of the dungeon and even maybe that event thing, no longer did the job.
He required more EXP, and quick! Maybe his quests didn't have a deadline to respect, but that was the issue! If they don't have a deadline, it means some things can happen at any given time, like his battle with the White Dragon Emperor. He knows next to nothing about them, meaning he doesn't know if he'll win, but he chose to trust the quest given by the system.
It has two additional objectives, which imply him training a lot. One for level 50, and one to raise his stats to 100 each. The stat one was the easiest one to achieve, as level 50 was quite far if his EXP requirements are anything to go by. He needs something to help boost his EXP by a lot…
"Is everything prepared?" Kalawarmer asked Mittelt as they looked down at Kuoh from atop a rooftop. "Kokabiel is on edge lately, so this better work."
"Relax, would you?" Mittelt replied, trying to be confident. "Sure, Raynare is captured and Dohaseek is pushing up daisies, not to mention we lost the nun, and Freed is still licking his wounds, but there is one last ace up our sleeve we can use."
Suddenly, another being landed on the roof, looking at them. "I came, just as you asked." And it didn't take a genius to guess this was a Stray devil.
"Ah, Malachi. Perfect timing. Tell us, are your men and women ready?" Mittelt asked the Stray, who nodded his head.
"I gathered up all the remaining Strays in Kuoh, just as you asked of me. With the Asura and Minotaur dying, not to mention the nests being discovered, Kuoh has become a really dangerous place for us. Some ran away, some gave themselves in, and some of us stayed and continued as if nothing happened." Malachi replied. "But to think, you'd show up…The Fallen Angels, coming to me, the last Stray with the ability to retain his intellect in Kuoh, and telling me the one at fault for this."
"What can I say? The enemy of my enemy is our friend." Mittelt replied. "The Red Dragon Emperor is our enemy, in this case. We managed to find out he was behind the attacks, and he's been a personal thorn in our sides as well, so it is only natural we unite forces."
"Are you certain of this, however?" Malachi asked, eyeing Mittelt with skepticism. "I am all in for this assault, but we mustn't forget about the two houses present in Kuoh; Sitri and Gremory. They can be a problem."
"You let us handle them." Mittelt replied. "Oh, Malachi, always the careful type. Isn't our plan perfect already?"
"Perfect? Hah!" Malachi laughed, which seemed to irk Mittelt. "Do recall, Fallen, that I was the Bishop of the Goetia Family number 40, the Raum House! I alone advised my King in his Rating Games, and it was also I who tricked him into killing himself. My genius is unmatched among the Strays, Fallen, so let me tell you this: Your plan is not perfect. No plan is. No plan survives contact with the enemy, after all. But I do say it is good, even if we all get obliterated, the Red Dragon will be weakened, allowing your lot to sweep in and finish the job."
"All of you obliterated?" Kalwarmer muttered, catching that detail. "Have you no value for your own life?"
Malachi put his hand up in response. "Make no mistake, I don't plan on dying. But the others? They can care less. Their minds are so far gone, they immediately jumped at the chance for glory and power, swallowing my lies just as whores swallow semen."
Mittler recoiled in disgust. "Ugh. Strange analogy."
"And those Strays? How many do you have?" Kalawarmer asked again, and again, and she got an answer.
"The Red Dragon did a number on the population, and the destruction of the nests caused others to be found by the peerages, but…I have around 200 Strays, all ready to march." Malachi replied.
"That is a small army." Kalawarner remarked, looking at Mittelt.
"The plans changed, so we must adapt. Malachi, prepare them to attack by tomorrow." Mittelt ordered the Stray. "Your target? Kuoh Academy."
Rias Gremory was once again working at her desk, late at night, thinking things over. However, when she picked up her cup of tea, she noticed something on the side of it.
A crack formed.
"This is a bad omen." She muttered, then looked out through the window at the moon. She felt it. Something was coming.
Incoming Event! Stray Raid!
