Chapter 2: Amends

Raynare was more afraid than she could ever be. Not even being in the presence of Kokabiel could beat it, but she didn't know why. Her eyes trailed up to the hanging sign above the door displaying a green pig with a hat. It never changed from her childhood.

Looking down at her uncle, her worries were slightly alleviated by his bright smile. Meliodas took point putting a hand on the door.

Fortunately, opening hours weren't till late noon.

"Deep breaths, okay?" Meliodas assured, and Raynare nodded in response.

Meliodas instantly swung the door open, the smell of booze long ago washed away. The staff of the Boar Hat were sitting around in idle chatter, but there was an addition of two new occupants. One was a tall, lean man with spiky silver hair, fanged teeth, and red eyes. He wore tightly fitting red leather pants and a small leather blazer that showed off his chest. A tattoo of a red fox was on the left side of his hip. The second person was a beautiful woman with shoulder length blonde hair. Her eyes were a glittering amber, complimented by her fair face and sizable bust.

"Nice to see ya back, Ban, Elaine." Meliodas greeted.

"Yo, captain!" Ban cheered, raising a beer bottle to his mouth.

Meliodas narrowed his eyes and his smile dropped. "Did you steal from my secret stash?"

"Maybe~." Burped Ban after chugging down the whole bottle. "There ain't nothing I can't steal, remember?"

Meliodas sighed. "Enough about the beer. More importantly, a little bit more of our family is here."

The blonde moved out of the way of the doorway for the rest to see. Violet eyes peeked inside nervously meeting curious looks back. Summoning up her courage, Raynare revealed herself and entered the Boar Hat, her head hanging down. It took a moment before the confused eyes widened into shock at the realization.

"Um… hi everyone." Raynare squeaked softly, and silence permeated for what seemed like hours until…

"OUR LITTLE RAY-CHAN'S HOME!" Raynare didn't get a moment to blink before she was forcefully pulled into the Boar Hat and settled on a stool at the bar. She was bombarded with questions, and once in a while was given a compliment by one of the women in the room how beautiful she has grown up to be.

"Have you been okay, sweety?" Diane asked.

"Y-Yeah." Stuttered Raynare, her body bettaying her inner timidness.

"I guess I've just been confused for a while." Raynare started to sniffle. "And stupid."

"What matters is that you're home." Elaine consoled sweetly. "I'll go make you something special real quickly."

While Elaine went into the kitchen to make a meal for Raynare, she was further barraged with questions, but thankfully none of them were pestering her for answers and just kept firing away.

She answered some, like where she had been in the world, the sights she saw, and the people she met. Unfortunately, the last one was a bit more reluctant to answer because most of those people merely brushed her off, with Kalawarner being only as close as a minor acquaintance.

Raynare realized that everyone she worked with was basically an asshole without a sense of morals for the wrongs they did. Some of those wrongs that she did herself. Elaine came back with a steaming plate and set it down right in front of the fallen angel. The thickness of the steam prevented her to see her meal, furthering whatever surprise the Bishop of Meliodas literally cooked up.

She waved it away, and her eyes widened at the contents of the revealed plate. A thick slice of ham in a rich brown sauce as the main dish, flanked by mash potatoes meshed with green onion and rice and corn to the side.

It was exactly how she loved her favorite meal ever since she was a kid. The fact they remembered at all had tears swelling in her eyes.

"Go, eat up." Coaxed Elaine. "You have to be mighty hungry."

Raynare's hand shook as she grabbed a fork and knife she was provided. Her hand on the knife instinctively took it like a sword of an expert's grip. She cut into the slice of ham and took a bite while the others just watched with smiles.

As soon as the taste registered in her mind, her eyes widened in recognition like a happy memory thought to be forgotten.

"This taste." Sobbed Raynare, her tears streaming down. "It is the exact same… whenever you made it for me… when I was a kid. You all… remembered."

Asuna smiled softly and lay a hand on Raynare's quivering shoulder. "We are all here for you."

The dam burst and the staff of the Boar Hat broke down in nervous sweats as Raynare wailed, letting out the emotions she had bottled up inside over the decades. Her arms flailed around to wrap whoever was in range into a hug, which was Kirito, Asuna, Diane, Ban, and Meliodas.

Her grip was surprisingly strong for a woman of her figure and she continued to tighten her hold as though they would leave the moment she lets go of them.

"I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY!" Sobbed Raynare. "I thought I was nothing to you that I was weak, but I was being stupid. I just thought that if I got stronger, you guys would love me, but I don't need to. My family loves me, and I love my family."

Raynare's words would only be choked by her sobs, but the Sins understood perfectly and hugged back on the shaking form of the fallen angel. Meliodas pulled out a napkin to wipe the tears from Raynare's face.

After a few minutes in the hug, Raynare calmed down and opened her eyes now red and puffy.

"That's enough tears for one day." Meliodas said. "For now, let's just be a family. I'm sure little Yui would be excited to have a new big sister."

"Yui?" Raynare quirked an eyebrow at the new name.

"Asuna's and my little angel we had a few years ago." Kirito answered while scratching the back of his head.

Raynare's eyes widened. "You had a kid? And I missed it too."

"You didn't miss much." Asuna perked up. "I'm sure you two will love each other. You even look like sisters."

To show, Asuna summoned up a picture via magic. Raynare peered at the photo, where she saw Kirito taking a selfie taking up most of the left side.

Sitting on a stump in the middle of a garden was Asuna in a white and red yukata holding a girl probably three years old of midnight hair not unlike Raynare's own, but her cheeks and eyes held the same from Kirito. The girl was sitting happily in her mother's lap wearing a dark blue yukata.

"She's adorable." Raynare mumbled, having the urge to run wherever she was and pick pinch the cheeks of her new 'imotou'.

Taking a deep breath, Raynare composed her features as she made her resolve. "I've done… a lot of bad. Cheated, lied, even murdered-"

"Welcome to the fuck-up club!" Interrupted Ban. "Pff, murder, shmurder. I have been accused for way worse. What's another a year in life sentence anyway?"

In response, Elaine smacked a pan onto the immortal's head. "You're not helping!"

"I guess what I'm trying to say is," Raynare concluded, "I want to make myself better."

Meliodas beamed. "Well, the first you can do is apologize to the people you actually need to. You know who I'm talking about."

Raynare's eyes widened in recognition of who Meliodas was referring to. Issei and Asia. When it came to Issei, she fully realized the weight of what she had done to the human.

For all she knew, Issei would've never awakened his Sacred Gear and just live his life in peace, but instead she had to kill him and drag him into the supernatural world.

As for Asia, the girl was far too sweet to resist Raynare's so-called help. She knew of how the church banished her on her ignorance, and she took advantage of that, made her life worse.

"When should I go?" Asked Raynare, ready to amends.

Meliodas hummed in thought while rubbing his chin. Now that he thought about it, this whole situation has become a bit more complicated. The former prince of Hell assumed that Issei took Asia to the Occult Research Club, probably too engrossed on protecting the girl to properly think of going to a different location like his home.

If Asia was actually taken, then possible events could've transpired of Issei rescuing Asia with Rias' peerage right behind, and he would still be in the dark.

But questions will arise towards Issei from his fellow devils why he is still with Asia and seemingly able to outrun fallen angels despite being a so-called regular human freshly reincarnated. Ah fuck it.

"We can go right now." Meliodas can always just ask Asuna to threaten them into secrecy.

(Later; Occult Research Club)

Rias had no idea what by Satan was going on. One second, she was just relaxing with her peerage going over contracts of the day, with the exception of Issei.

The Gremory heiress was slightly worried for his lack of accomplishment in his contracts, thus preventing him from growing his already weak demonic power. And worse he had yet to awaken his Sacred Gear, which she knew had to be the Boosted Gear.

She partially blamed the nun by the name of Asia, but she knew she was being unfair and biased with that kind of attitude. That still didn't hold her mistrust for Asia who could be acting to lower Issei's guard.

Suddenly, the two people on topic busted through the door of the Occult Research Club. Asia was in Issei's arms in bridal style with a heavy blush on her face and Issei looked he had run across town.

Which he actually did. Once he got his breath, his eyes darted nervously to the other people in the room. He didn't expect anyone to be here.

'On second thought, maybe it wasn't a good idea to go here.' Issei thought.

'Idiot.' Commented Ddraig.

"Issei," Spoke Rias snapping Issei to attention. His eyes scanned the occupants glaring at Asia, and he could feel their magic rising to be unleashed on a moment's notice.

Issei held back a grimace as he readied to activate the Boosted Gear and fight his own peerage if just for Asia's sake.

"What are you doing bringing a nun of the church here?!" Rias asked with a slight dangerous edge. For all she knew, Issei had inadvertently brought an assassin to kill them all.

"Uh… you see, I…" Issei stumbled through words trying to make an excuse. He chose to glance at Asia, but only to straighten strong the blonde hissing behind him while terrified. "Look, you have to believe me that Asia is completely harmless. She's the definition of sweet.

We were hanging today until Raynare interrupted. She tried to take Asia and I knew they were going to do something terrible to her, so I managed to run here as fast as possible."

Rias stared at Issei with an unreadable expression. As horrid as the thought was, Issei bonding with the nun was the last thing she wanted him to do and thus putting him in a very dangerous situation.

On the other hand, Rias would be destroying whatever trust she had in Issei if she turned Asia, innocent or not.

"Issei, you have to understand that I can't just take in a nun whenever we feel like it, even if it is for their protection." Rias scolded. "The church would view it as an offense."

To her surprise, Issei didn't back down. "If you're worried about the church, you don't have to be. Those rotten bastards kicked her out because she didn't know any better healing a devil."

That opened a whole new level of opportunity's for the Princess of Ruin. If the church excommunicated Asia, not only would she be able to offer asylum but she could also score another member of her peerage and they wouldn't have a say in it.

Of course, the thought of turning a nun into a devil seemed like a faraway dream. There was a contradictory statement to that as Rias observed how literally close Asia was to Issei and would no doubt by loyal to him.

'He's already taking his first step to become Harem King.' Rias thought in amusement. She knew that despite Issei being a pervert, her recent observations with her familiars showed he had a very warm personality that she knew he would treat the girl right. Oh, Rias could only just imagine how cute those two could be together as a couple.

"That changes things." Rias responded. "Asia is welcome to stay here as long as she likes."

Despite her agreement for asylum, Asia still didn't budge from her hiding spot behind Issei. The Red Dragon Emperor glanced back to the nun with a comforting smile.

"Don't worry, Asia-chan." Issei said. "They're friends. They won't hurt you, I promise."

"Th-Thank you, Issei-kun and his friends." Asia said as she stepped forward and bowed to the club members.

"I apologize for my attitude earlier." Rias replied with her own bow.

"Any friend of Issei is a friend of mine."

"It's okay." Asia said, her blue eyes seeming to shimmer with innocence. "Is it true that you are all devils?"

"Yes. Asia-san." Rias confirmed bluntly.

"I-I'm okay with that." Asia admitted, holding a cross comfortably but also stealing glances to Issei, "Until Issei-kun, I didn't have any friends. Thank you very much."

'Issei's right, she is just an innocent human who was brought in among the wrong people.' Thought Rias.

"Please take a seat." Rias gestured to one of the sofas. Asia sat down with Issei at her side, almost protectively.

The more Rias looked at their interaction, the more she became perplexed at these alien details about Issei that she seemingly missed.

"Now that that is taken care of, we still have the issue with the fallen angels since you ran off with their… prize." Rias was a bit reluctant trying to find the correct term.

"We'll just have to beat them out of here." Issei declared. "We're allowed to do that, right?"

Issei made it sound like he was guessing, but in truth he knew if another faction made crimes in another's territory a skirmish was inevitable. With his full power restored, Issei could go there himself but he didn't want to lose face with Rias and seem like he was becoming a stray.

Rias bought the act, only blinking in slight surprise.

"That is correct actually." Rias said. "I will not condone fallen angels harming my peerage without consequence. And trust, we will make sure those consequences are deadly."

"Ooh, that could be fun."

The members of the Occult Research Club snapped to action at the new voice. Koneko leapt in front of Rias taking a stance, Rias' Power of Destruction surged through her arms as she spread all six of her wings, Akeno's body crackled with lightning, and Kiba summoned dual swords with his Sacred Gear.

Only Issei and Asia, the former knowing full well who it was.

At the door stood Meliodas himself with a cheeky grin. "Morning to ya, ni-shi-shi."

The peerage of devils blinked once then four times tried to process the short intruder standing there. He honestly could be mistaken for a fourteen year old if it weren't for his clothes.

"Who are you?" Rias managed to say out of her stupor.

Only to blink when the small dwarf of man completely disappeared without a sound from the spot he was standing on. She only darted her eyes around for a second before she felt something at her stomach.

She looked down passed her cleavage to find the short blonde poking through with a nonchalant look on his face. Rias couldn't fathom what was happening. She lost track for a second then was being felt up by this random stranger. He didn't have the decency to blush as Meliodas rested between her chests

While looking up. Put that all together, and it made Rias swell with anger indicated by the scarlet aura of her Power of Destruction taking form.

"Just your friendly neighborhood barkeeper wanting to meet some new people." Meliodas chirped, his voice muffled.

"How dare you - Get off of me!" Rias roared, cupping a ball of destructive of magic… Only for Meliodas to disappear the moment she blinked. In her surprise, her magic dissipated as she tried to find the dwarf until she heard a moan from Akeno.

Her eyes bugged wide open seeing Meliodas' head hidden under her skirt. Rias brow twitched and her face contorted in a mix of shock and fury at this soon-to-be-dead man's perversion. The same could not be said for a blushing Akeno and a snickering Issei.

"Someone stop him." Rias cried.

Koneko was the only to move besides of Kiba, who was having trouble keeping his composure by Meliodas' daring perversion that made Issei tame.

Just as Koneko was a hair's breath away from catching Meliodas, he completely zipped out of sight in pure speed and reappeared at the front of the door. Caught off by such speed, Koneko fell between Akeno's legs, and the Queen of Rias was having one of her sadistic episodes as she eyed Meliodas with a blush.

"Too fast." Koneko deadpanned.

"How very daring of you, stranger, looking up my skirt." Akeno said as she licked her lips. "I am going to enjoy punishing you for your rude behavior."

"Ah, apologies for my absence of such; I didn't even introduce myself." Meliodas said. "Name is Meliodas, proud owner of the Boar Hat."

Rias' rage simmered down when she recognized that name. "Boar Hat… Isn't that one of Kuoh's oldest and most popular bar?"

"Of yours truly, ni-shi-shi." Chirped Meliodas.

Rias narrowed her eyes. "I've always had my suspicions about that place. No matter the decade, it is always owned by the same person, fitting your description. Your not human, so who or what are you?"

"Maybe he's a leprechaun." Said Asia, who was staring curiously at Meliodas.

"Sorry to disappoint." Meliodas chuckled. "You could say I am merely protection."

"And who would that be?" Rias asked, taking a seat but not averting her eyes away from the Prince of Hell.

In response, Meliodas cupped his hands around his mouth and turned to the door. "You can come out now."

"Are you sure they won't hurt me?" Spoke a familiar voice that made Asia shiver a bit.

"Don't worry, they're pretty harmless." Meliodas said, causing Rias to make a tick mark and Akeno to lick her lips to prove just how harmless she can't be.

All eyes locked to the door where a new stranger stepped into the club room. It took a few seconds to take note of the waterfall of black hair, violet eyes, and voluptuous figure as the fallen angel Raynare.

Issei was about to snap into action until he stopped himself at how different she was. Her high-standing attitude was nonexistent, and that cockiness he knew firsthand was replaced by a downcast expression. She even seemed regretful as her eyes averted to the ground, and when compared to her earlier attitude this was genuine.

Like what Issei knew before was all a mask to hide this emotionally vulnerable girl. The closest Issei could put this 'new' Raynare was Asia.

Raynare wasn't wearing her outfit, instead going for a black jacket with sleeves going passed the elbow with a white shirt underneath, and blue jeans on her toned legs with simple sneakers. If it weren't for her face, Issei would never recognize this normal-looking woman as Raynare.

The rest of the devils had a more dangerous response as the room filled with killing intent aimed towards Raynare while Asia seemed to quiver. To her credit, Raynare didn't retreat but cringed at the bad attention. Meliodas was completely unaffected.

"What are you doing here, crow!?" Rias growled out.

Raynare forced her eyes from the ground to the devils in the world.

Her arms clasped together at her waist in a harmless matter as she stepped a few paces forward. She took a deep breath to relax her nerves, putting all her hopes in the devils' mercy and Meliodas's capability to protect her.

"I…" Raynare gulped under the stare of Rias and her peerage. "I have come here to make… amends. Please."

Rias blinked. "Excuse me?"

"I want to apologize." Raynare announced, making the devils widen their eyes in surprise.

Rias and Akeno were the first to snap out of their stupor. Killing intent was sent yet again from the two via their mistrust of fallen angels, Akeno worse than even Rias as lightning crackled around her body. However, Asia was a direct opposite as her eyes stared at Raynare with an innocent glint.

"What game are you playing!?" Rias roared. "You think you can desecrate my territory and lie to my face?!"

Raynare barred her teeth in a bit of frustration. "What the hell do you think I'd get out of this lying to you?! I'm being serious here."

"Get out!" Rias demanded.

"Not until I apologize to them." Raynare declared, pointing to Issei and Asia. "Out of all the people in this town, I've wronged them the most. And I'm ashamed of that." Her voice became softer as her face lost its steel. "So please, just let me do this."

"Let her make her amends, buchou." Spoke Issei, making Rias and Akeno whip their heads to the Red Dragon Emperor in surprise by his input. "Would you please?"

Rias started at her Pawn too stunned to make proper words. The moment he came through those doors with Asia he was different. He didn't openly show his perversion and his eyes were like steel of perfect composure.

The most notable was that Issei didn't have a perverted look at all toward them and even showed protectiveness when he gazed over Asia.

"Fine." Rias forced out, struggling to keep her voice neutral. She stepped out of the way to give Raynare, Issei, and Asia. She gestured her peerage to relax with her Queen being more reluctant to do so. Off to the side by the door she spotted Meliodas leaning on the wall with that smirk of his.

Rias switched her attention back to Raynare who now stood before the Pawn and nun. She noted the slight tremble of her body that indicated her anxiety, but was more surprise that Issei kept a neutral expression instead of lashing out in anger.

"I don't know if I can undo what I've done, but I just want to try."

Mumbled Raynare in a breaking voice. "If you hate me, I understand but above all else I just want you to here this. I'm…"

Rias expected many things, but she didn't predict the fallen angel bowing her head over and over as she hollered apologies at the top of her voice.

"I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY-"

"Easy there, lil Ray." Meliodas calmed down Raynare when he was instantly at her side. "Deep breaths."

"Right." Raynare said, looking bashful; a look that didn't seem to belong on a fallen angel yet seemed right for her. "S-Sorry, but how can you forgive me?"

An eerie silence descended in the ORC. Issei stared at Raynare with a blank look, but Asia didn't sit still. The little nun seemed to bolt from her seat and abruptly wrapped Raynare in a hug.

"Of course I forgive you!" Asia exclaimed happily. "All of God's children deserve forgiveness. You forgive her, right Issei?"

Issei nodded with a smile, getting flabbergasted looks from the rest

of the ORC. "As long as it makes you happy, Asia-chan."

"R-Really?" Stuttered Raynare.

"As long as you regret your actions," Asia said with her beaming smile, "we can even be friends, right?"

Soft sobs hiccuped out of Raynare's throat before evolving into a flood of tears going down her cheeks. With a cry, she latched onto Asia like she was a life line. The ORC could only watch stunned to believe a fallen angel was sobbing after being forgiven. That just didn't seem right to them, even too bizarre to imagine it.

"THANK YOU, ASIA." Sobbed Raynare. "THANK YOU FOR BEING SO KIND. I WON'T LET YOU DOWN!"

Slightly flustered, Asia smiled sweetly. "There, there."

"This has been a weird day." Koneko commented, getting a dumb nod from Kiba and Akeno.

"Isn't this sweet?" Chirped Meliodas, suddenly under Akeno's chest again. Already, he was gone from harm's way even before Akeno could unleash her lightning.

'Who is this man?!' Rias thought in bewilderment at this anomaly.

"That's enough, lil Ray." Meliodas said. "You're squeezing the poor girl."

Raynare blinked in realization before prying Asia away with a blush of embarrassment. Next, she turned to Issei and unclasped the bracelet that he gave her on the 'date'. She still cringed of the memory of ramming the spear through Issei's chest.

"You know, I meant what I said." Raynare said, as she held out the bracelet to Issei. "It was a nice date. For a pervert, you're undeniably sweet. Save this for a girl who deserves it."

Issei looked at the outstretched hand, before he surprisingly closed Raynare's fingers around it and held it in place there. "Keep it. Think of it as a token of a new friendship."

Raynare blinked before bowing her head. "Thank you, Issei-san."

"Not to be the elephant in the room," Rias interrupted, "but what about your fallen angel friends here? I don't believe that they all just had a change of heart like you?"

Raynare frowned. "Do with them what you want. As far as I know, we were basically people who were forced to work together. From here on out, I am abandoning the Grigori."

Rias pressed on for more information. "But where will you be?"

"With my uncle of course." Raynare said, glancing to Meliodas. "He's family after all."

Rias raised an eyebrow. She stretched her senses to measure Meliodas' power, and she certainly didn't feel any light properties. In fact, she couldn't even feel him at all like he wasn't even there.

The Gremory heiress sighed in exasperation at the unnecessary headache she was getting. If she wanted information, she can always use her familiar to spy on them.

"What about you, Asia?" Rias asked. "You have no place in either the Grigori or the church."

"I want to be with Issei." Asia said without hesitance, clutching the plushy. "He's been my first friend, even if he is a devil I can gladly live with that."

"That so?" Rias replied with a smile. "As you know, devils live for longer than humans. But there is a way to be with him forever if you so wish, Asia-san. So I extend the offer to join my peerage."

"Hold on!" Issei interrupted in alarm. "Asia-chan, are you sure you want to do this? If you are reincarnated into a devil, you will never be able to pray again."

"… I can accept that." Asia said reluctantly. "In a way, my greatest prayer has been answered. To be surrounded by friends."

"Well then, we can-"

"Ah, ba-ba, hold on a minute." Meliodas chirped, driving everything to a halt, "I believe I have a solution to Asia's little problem. It wouldn't be right if such an innocent nun couldn't pray to her heart's content if she was a devil."

Rias narrowed her eyes. "What are you getting at?"

"Answer me this." Meliodas said with a raised finger. "Does she have to be a devil to be part of your peerage?"

"But that's the Evil Pieces work, to reincarnate other beings into devils." Rias countered, but getting a shake of a head from Meliodas.

"Not entirely." Meliodas said, reaching into a pocket of his vest. "I for one have a solution to allow Asia to be immortal while also having her legally be a part of your peerage."

"Go on." Rias said in interest.

"Voila." Meliodas chirped as he made a dramatic pose holding up what looked like a white feather. White as in it didn't have a single bit of dirt that ruined the glow it emanated. The devils in the room felt a strange sensation of alarm from the little feather, and their eye widened in realization.

"That's an angel's feather." Rias gasped, "But… that's impossible of what your implying."

"Oh, whatever do you mean?" Meliodas feigned innocence, knowing he was egging Rias to saying it directly.

"You… want to reincarnate her as an angel in my peerage." Rias said, sending a shock through the ORC even to Issei.

Raynare had an inkling of who could be responsible for the sorcery to make it possible for devil peerages. She knew of the system the angels of heaven used of the card system; she had seen it happen herself, but to be able to reincarnate a being into a devil's peerage into an angel was staggering.

"You think you can make me an angel?" Gasped Asia in amazement

at the short blonde. Suddenly, she felt like she was looking at a saint,

(oh the irony, ni-shi-shi).

"I don't think, I know I can." Meliodas chirped. "Think of the benefits, Rias-san. You have a literal game changer of an actual angel in your peerage to give you the advantage of light magic, besides the fallen angel of a Queen you have."

Akeno froze at those words. 'How does he know that?!'

"In summary," Meliodas concluded. "You hold the power of light in your peerage, Asia can stay with Issei forever, and she can still pray to god. It's a win-win."

Meliodas' words went through Rias like a computer given directions.

The decision was a no-brainer instantly seeing the pros of having not just some reincarnated devil, but an actual angel legally in her peerage with her powers of light undiluted.

"How do we do this?" Rias asked, automatically accepting the proposition.

Meliodas flashed his signature grin. "Ni-shi-shi. I need the Evil Piece you planned to use on Asia."

Rias nodded and held her palm where a red magic circle came to life and summoned the chess piece for one of the Bishops, crimson in color and radiating demonic energy. Meliodas stepped up to the held out Bishop and wrapped the angel feather around the piece.

Immediately on contact, a golden, multi-layered magic circle came to life above the piece while the multiple rings of strange sigils of magic swirled around it creating an ever-increasing light. It came to the point that Rias had to cover her eyes from the blinding light, but it already died down as the process stopped.

In her hands was now a pure white Bishop piece giving off a faint but noticeable white glow of holy magic. But instead of flinching or writhing in pain, Rias felt nothing from the holy light. In fact, she could still feel the connection to the Bishop piece. It was different, but not like a Mutation Piece that she had from her other Bishop Piece since she could no longer sense any demonic power within it like she was holding something alien to her even though it still had her magical signature.

'Whoever designed this sorcery has to be a master of masters!' Rias thought in awe. 'Not even Mephisto can compare.'

'Mom, what you've done is… simply incredible.' Raynare thought.

"Congrats." Meliodas congratulated. "You are the first owner of a Holy Piece."

"How do I use it?" Rias said, wondering if she needed a chant.

"Nothing much." Meliodas explained. "Just place it over her heart, and the magic will do the process automatically."

Rias did as she was told and pressed the Holy Piece onto Asia's sternum.

The magic circle of the Gremory Clan flared to life on Asia's chest, only white in color instead of red. As Asia was engulfed in a bright light, the Holy Piece sunk into her body rearranging her human body into that of something else entirely. Once the light dimmed away and the Holy Piece fully dissolved in Asia's very being, the nun had a light green glow around her body before it manifested into an aura of green holy light the exact same as an angel's life signature.

A golden halo rested above Asia's head followed by a pair of wings Sprouted from her back.

Asia had her eyes closed the entire time, apprehensive at the odd tingling sensation through her body. When the process was done, she felt that she was obviously different. Stronger, faster, and with more energy to spare than she ever imagined.

The nun opened her eyes at the alien feeling on her back, but gasped at the sight of her own pair of angel wings unfolded to their full glory and radiance.

The devils of Rias' peerage were stunned that not only that Asia had reincarnated into a pure angel, she was generating holy light that should've burned them but didn't. As if her own power knew they are part of the same group from the Holy Piece. Asia reached to one her new wings and ran her hand through the soft feathers. She let out a breath from the tickle of every feather she touched.

"They're beautiful…" Asia mumbled. "Thank you, Rias-chan forgiving me this opportunity."

"I'm pretty sure that's you, Asia-chan." Issei commented, making

Asia blush.

"The pleasure is all mine." Rias replied.

Asia turned to Meliodas and leaned forward ninety degrees in a bow. "Thank you so much, leprechaun-san."

Meliodas had the decency to actually sweatdrop. "Happy to help."

The short blonde turned his attention to Rias. "A few key details to note, Rias-san. Asia can't use contracts to increase her own power since she isn't a devil, so her only choice is a training regime but it is entirely her choice if she wants to. And keep in mind that as an angel, she is in risk of falling if you don't pull back on your instincts but maybe that won't be a problem. Lastly, at least shape up her magical skills since you used a Bishop piece that increased her magical reserves. As I said before, if she wants to develop her powers as an angel she'll have to come to me since I have the right people for that."

"How will I contact you then?" Rias asked.

"Oh, I'll know." Meliodas said, sending a glance to Issei.

"Well, I'll be taking my leave." Meliodas chirped as he went to the door followed closely by Raynare, "See ya later Gremory."

"Wait!" Rias cried out. "Just who are you? What are you?"

"I already told you." Meliodas said with a smile. "My name's Meliodas. Buuut… if you want to know what I am so badly, you gonna have to keep a secret."

"And if I don't keep such a secret?" Rias inquired.

Meliodas only smiled. "Then I'll be forced to send a special someone to punish you with the likes that makes BDSM tame."

Most of Rias' peerage didn't know why but they felt a chill go down their spines at whoever Meliodas had to his call. However, no one noticed the terrified shiver of Issei.

He knew exactly Meliodas was referring. He still had nightmares of all those training sessions running for his dear life while tied to an iron pole. And she kept laughing and shouting the entire time like a haunting phantom.

"I promise not to tell anyone about you." Rias swore."

"Including your older brother?" Meliodas said.

Rias blinked then nodded. "Even the Maou himself."

"Good." That was the warning they had before in an instant the whole ORC was floored by an immeasurable pressure. The light of the ORC even seemed to dim as the shadows grew deeper.

The air felt so cold like they were all standing in a tundra only the sun hadn't risen for a year. Stone and even steel cracked from the incredible pressure that was just the tip of the iceberg over a vast ocean.

It lasted as soon as it came, just fast enough to keep them from passing out but enough to have their vision blurred. But Rias saw what she needed clearly. An image that would mark her mind that day.

A set of twelve devil wings as dark as the void of the night sky.

Yay. The second chapter is done so now I can get to some other shit. The next chapter will deal with the fallen angels shortly then moving with Raynare being trained by Meliodas which will explain a bit more of her abilities I have planned.

As mentioned in the summary this is a multi-crossover.
