Chapter 9

Open House and meeting the Devil Kings

I groaned as my eyes slowly opened, as my vison cleared I saw the ceiling of Rias' meeting room. I then pushed myself up as I woke up from, what felt like a very long nap.

"Oh good your awake" A voice said

Turning to meet it, I found Rias and her household all looking at me with different levels of concern.

"Thank goodness you're okay, how are you feeling?" Asia asked getting close to me

"A little groggy, but in all honesty I feel fine" I answered making Asia sigh in relief

I then turned to the others as I rubbed the sleepiness from my eyes.

"What happened?" I asked trying to remember

"Akeno said you passed out, so we decided to end our pool time to bring you here" Rias explained

'I passed out, why on earth would I pass…oh' I thought as I remembered what happened

"I'm guessing you remember what happened?" Rias asked as I nodded

"Yeah, let's just say…I got a taste of what Issei gets" I said as my checks turned red

"What's that supposed to … Akeno?" Rias said giving a hard glare

"Guilty as charged, I guess he couldn't take my treatment" Akeno said with a giggle

I then gave Akeno the stink eye as my cheeks flushed red again, but of course my embarrassment wasn't done there as Xenovia seemed to want to speak.

"You know, he probably wouldn't have fainted if you let us do intercourse properly" she said, causing everyone, minus from Kiba, to gasp.

"Andrew! Were you trying to knock up one of my servants?!" Rias asked in a demanding tone causing me to sweat bullets.

"No,no, that is not it at all what happened!" I quickly said, until quickly glaring at the blue haired girl, "Besides she was forcing herself on me!" I added as Xenovia only just looked indifferent

"I don't see the problem, all I wanted to do was have a baby" she said making me blush harder

"That's not an excuse, not even a good one!" I shouted at her, while everyone just sweat dropped at this.

"Oh my, I hope I'm not interrupting" a voice suddenly said, catching everyone's attention

In the center of the room was magic circle that appeared to be white in color and out it came two people. One was a young woman with back-length silver hair that features a long braid on each side with small blue bows at the ends, while the rest is let down which ends in twin braids and Silver eyes. As for her wardrobe she wore a silver and blue French maid outfit. Beside the woman was a tall man with medium length red hair, red like Rias, and wore a black suit with a white undershirt.

'Uh, who is this?' I thought looking at the two newcomers

"Brother!" Rias shouted in surprise, which caused my eyes to widen in shock

'Wait brother?! As in Sirzechs himself, the Devil King!' I thought, trying to wrap my mind around the fact that Lucifer himself was standing before me

"Oh you must be the infamous Iron-Man I heard so much about" Sirzechs said causing me to snap from my thoughts

Looking around the room I noticed that everyone was looking at me, causing a feeling of awkwardness to appear in my stomach and my checks to flush slightly. Not wanting to be disrespectful to Rias's brother I then stood up and bowed to the man.

"Yes that's right, I'm Andrew Stark" I quickly said, hoping to recover from the awkward moment

"Nice to meet you Andrew as you can guess I'm Sirzechs Lucifer" he said bowing in kind until gesturing to the woman beside him, "This is my queen Grayfia Lucifuge" he said as said woman curtsied

"A pleasure to meet you" Grayfia said in a very elegant and refined voice, honestly it reminded me of dads old A.I. Jarvis from back in the day.

Of course something did catch my attention, mostly the fact that the devil king of all people knew me.

"Excuse me sir but how do you even know me, I don't think we have ever meet?" I asked which made Sirzech chuckle slightly

"How would I not know about the human, that basically went toe to toe with a leader class fallen angel" he replied making me quite surprised

Sure Kokibel seemed to be like a big threat that much was true but I didn't think it would get people like Sirzechs attention. Of course that brought up another question to mind, one that I hope I was wrong about.

"So…how many people know about that little skirmish?" I asked, dreading what I will hear

"Practically everyone in the underworld is talking about you and more than half the devil households want to make you there servant" Sirzechs replied causing me to groan

I was dreading if that was the case meaning that more than half the underworld is going to be on my butt, meaning it was going to harder for me to get home.

'Huh, so this is what my dad felt like with Fury nagging him' I thought

Luckily for me Rias had noticed how uncomfortable I was and quickly changed the subject.

"So why are you here brother?" Rias asked, causing the devil king to turn his attention to his sister

"Why because of open house, the thing you were trying to hide from me" Sirzechs replied making Rias shocked

"What!? How did find out about that?!" Rias exclaimed until turning a frown to the maid, "Was it you Grayfia, did you tell him?!" she asked, causing said maid to lower her head with guilt

'Ha, reminds of the times when I hid embarrassing secrets from my sister' I thought with a small smile

Looking at the two demons I couldn't help think about my sister, her laughter, her cute smile and her sense of humor. Of course thinking about it couldn't help but feel a pit form in my stomach, being filled with sadness and regret, what was my sister thinking now, she must be so worried about me…and I just left without saying goodbye.

"Also I have official business here as well" Sirzechs said, catching my attention, "As you know about the leaders' summit, well we decided to hold it here at your school" he said, shocking everyone

"Of all places?!" Rias asked, voicing everyone's thoughts

But it seemed that it was not up for debate, it was already decided by the three faction's leaders so they will have the summit here at Kuoh Academy. After that everyone was then dismissed from the club to go home, as for me I went back to the warehouse that held my gateway, during said trip I couldn't help but think about what I heard.

'All three of the most powerful factions leaders all meeting in one place…sounds like a disaster waiting to happen' I thought

I mean how could it not be, with all three major powers all in one place it makes it the perfect place for an assassination attempt…or worse. But I couldn't think about it, after all if what Rias had said was true, those three leaders could defend themselves…but I still couldn't get rid of this bad feeling I was having.

I then saw my warehouse below causing me to descend down and land in front of the door, I then but away my suit and went to unlock the door and get a good night's sleep. But when I went to unlock the door I noticed that door was already unlocked!

"Oh crud" I mumbled as I let a gauntlet form around my hand

I then grabbed a hold of the door handle, charging up my repulser as I did, I then silently counted from three and once I hit zero I then swung the door open and held up my hand, but thankfully I didn't shoot. The reason being is because the people in front of me was none other then Akeno and Xenovia, causing me to de-power my gauntlet and put it away.

"Akeno, Xenoiva what are you doing here?" I asked

"You never answered our question Andrew~~" Akeno said confusing me

'What question? What on earth can these two be talking…oh no' I thought, grim realization spreading upon my face

"Which one of us do you want to give your child too" Xenoiva said making sweat nervously and my face to go extreme code red!

"Oh come on girls, not this again!" I shouted, already dreading what might happen next

But it seemed my words were once again un-heard, evident by the fact that Akeno was grabbing my arm quite tightly, pressing it between her two mounds thus making my face grew hotter like the sun!

"Come on Andrew, won't you want me, you know this body was made for rough activities~~" Akeno said, licking her lips in quite a sensual way

I didn't have time to respond to Akeno's words when my other arm was taken a hold of, this time by Xenoiva as she also held my arm between her large breasts.

"Andrew, give your child to me, I'm fully prepared to take the responsibility and care of our future offspring" Xenoiva said

"Back off Xenoiva, I already staked my claim on Andrew all ready" Akeno said, gripping my arm tighter

"Perhaps you should back off; my body is much more suited to birth a child then you!" Xenoiva shouted back at her devil companion

The two started arguing like crazy, getting louder and louder and their grip on my arms were getting tighter and tighter! I knew I need to put a stop to this one way or another so with good and firm tug I got my arms free from the two devils and walked from them, thus ending their arguments and focusing on me.

"Girls enough! You both are acting like five year olds on a playground!" I shouted, crossing my arms, "You two are friends, so this pointless fighting has got to stop and besides…" I said but I never got to finish my sentence.

Suddenly I felt an all too familiar pain strike me again, causing me to fall to my knees as I gripped my chest tightly and just like before I started to flicker again, thus causing the girls to gasp at the sight of me.

"Andrew" They shouted, reaching out to help

"Don't touch me!" I shouted, waving the two off

Luckily for me this little episode of mine didn't last for very long because I had solidified again, which caused Akeno and Xenoiva to rush to my sides to see if I was okay.

"Andrew, what was that?" Akeno asked, concern very evident in her voice

"That…was your universe trying to kick me out the front door" I replied

"I don't understand?" Xenoiva asked, confusion on her face as well as Akeno

"Simply put, your universe is pushing me out" I replied, standing up again thanks to Akeno and Xenoiva, "It seems that my atoms don't like being in this universe and neither does your universe, so now it seems the natural forces that make up the multiverse are trying to push me out it" I explained, hoping to clear the confusion

Which it did, thankfully, but now both Akeno and Xenoiva's faces had changed from confusion to worry and sadness.

"You mean…you're going home" Akeno said, sounding quite hurt

"I'm…not sure actually" I replied, "I have no idea if when I leave this reality if I'll return home or just be sent to another universe all together" I added

I then looked outside and saw that the sun was almost below the horizon and I can already feel myself getting sleepier.

"Look it's getting late, why don't we just talk about this later okay?" I asked

Begrudgingly the two devils agreed and walked out of the warehouse, saying good nights as they went. Once they were out of sight I then locked the warehouse and made my way to bed, hoping to sleep off this uneasy feeling and wake up to a brighter day tomorrow.

(*)

Unfortunately that was not the case, I was still dog tired due to the fact I couldn't get a wink of sleep due to my stressed out mind.

"Just what I need, more stress to add to the pile" I said to myself, yawning as I did

I was currently making my way to Kuoh Academy to participate in open house; after all as Asia's brother I decided I should at least support her. As I rounded the corner I then spotted Issei walking down the street, only this time he was all alone.

"Hey Issei!" I called out, catching the pervert's attention

"Sup Andrew" Issei called back

Once I caught up to him I couldn't help but notice he was walking alone today.

"Where are the others?" I asked

"Rias is hanging with her brother and Grayfia and Asia is checking up on Xenoiva" Issei replied

"So you're walking alone to school today?" I said

"Yeah, kind of brings back memories you know?" Issei said making me smirk

"Of what, being a loner that peeks in on girls and gets beat up in the end" I said, making Issei frown

"Not cool man, not cool" Issei replied

Then just as we arrived at the front gates of Kouh, suddenly Issei then clutched his arm in pain, making me stop and check on my friend.

"Issei, what's wrong?" I asked, concern evident in his voice

"I don't know my arm is wigging out!" Issei replied, still clutching his arm

'According to Ddraig, his arm will react to high amounts of power so which means somewhere here is someone with an extreme power level' I thought

I was then was about to pull out my sunglasses so I can scan the area for any power signatures until…someone caught my eye. A young boy, probably a little older than me and Issei was standing next to the front gate to Kouh, he wore a black leather jacket over a white shirt, black tight pants and shoes. As for his looks he has silver spiky hair and blue eyes that seemed cold and calculative, holding a sense of superiority to them that seemed to look down upon on all.

'That guy?' I thought, wondering who he was, because he was defiantly not someone I remember

The boy then started to walk up to us, holding a confident by sly smile on his face. Just looking at him gave me an odd feeling and was twisting my guts around in my stomach, almost like the threat of death was just hanging over our heads.

"Why so surprised to see me, after all this is the second time we have meet" the boy said, confusing me and Issei

'I don't remember seeing this guy around town or even at the academy…but something about his voice…it sounds familiar to me' I thought, trying to think about who our mystery man is

"Your Issei Hyoudou right? The Welsh Dragon Emperor" the boy said shocking Issei and putting me on edge, even more when he turned his sights on me, "And you're Andrew Stark, the so called Invincible Iron Man"

Now that set off some warning bells in my head, already putting my mind on red alert and gripping my fist hard causing my palms to sweat profoundly.

'Who is this guy?!' I shouted in my head, not liking being in the dark…but I won't be in the dark long

"My name is Vali, the White Dragon Emperor but…you can just call me the Vanishing Dragon"

As soon as those words left his mouth I instantly created my Iron Man gauntlet from my watch and pointed it at him, charging up a max power repulser blast. It seemed that Vali was ready for that sense he had his finger pointed at my face, right between my eyes but I didn't even flinch, just kept my eyes on the guy in front of me.

"Impressive, I have you in kill range yet you barely seemed to bothered at all" Vali said, still holding that arrogant smirk and honestly that thing was driving me up the wall

"Takes more than a pretty boy in a suit to scare me" I responded, palm still pointed at his head

Vali then turned his gaze to Issei, who still was clutching his arm and seemed to be quite nervous not that I can blame him, regarding who is standing before us.

"As for you, you hesitate greatly, honestly it wouldn't take much to take you out" Vali said

Issei seemed to take offense to that as he was about to activate his Boosted Gear but suddenly two very familiar swords were then at Vali's neck. Looking at who had the white dragon in there clutches was none other than Kiba and Xenoiva, with one having there holy and devil blade and the other having the holy sword Durandal. But even with both blades at his throat and my repulser pointed at his face he still doesn't seemed fazed at all.

"Don't you think this little joke has gone on long enough? Kiba said, saying it less as a question and more as a threat

"I don't think it wise to start a fight with the Red Dragon Emperor here" Xenoiva added

"Oh please, if you all couldn't take out Kokibel what makes you think you can fight me" Vali said, causing the two Gremory knights to sweat with nervous energy, "Besides, I don't think you two want to cause too much of a scene" he added

I much as I didn't want to agree with the pretty boy, I knew he was right and he knew it too. So against every rational part of my brain telling me not to, I then deactivated my gauntlet just as Kiba and Xenoiva made their swords disappear.

"Tell me something, how to think you rank in this world, Issei, Andrew?" Vali asked confusing me and him

"What are you talking about?" Issei asked

"Yeah, just what on earth are you spouting?" I asked in turn

"With your incomplete balance breaker I's say you're about thousand to twenty four hundred, as for you Iron Man I find you almost in the three digit range" Vali said, now making me frown

'Please…with Mark 96 I'm at least rank 5' I thought, finding Vali's assumption offending

"You both are valuable players, you should be nurtured, and I'm I right…Rias?" Vali said surprising us

We then looked behind us and lone and behold Rias and the others of the ORC were standing behind us, with the red head of the group holding a serious glare at the white dragon.

"I don't need your advice, now what are doing here?" Rias demanded, standing in front of her household

"Calm down I wasn't here for a fight I will take my leave now but be weary Red Dragon and Iron Man" Vali said as he walked away from us

As I saw him leave I couldn't help but feel uneasy…he seemed to calm, too collected. But at the same time I felt something and I saw it in his eyes…he had a lust for battle and something tells me that Issei and I just lit the fuse.

'If that time comes…I may need to use that armor' I thought, slightly dreading on using…that

(*)

After that whole debacle with Vali I decided take up my role as Asia's big brother and watch her do her school work during open house. I was currently in her art calls where everyone was busy doing sculptures and looking them over…well…I defiantly don't see the next da Vinci in here.

'But what would expect from a bunch of high schoolers' I thought

But it seemed something got everyone's attention because suddenly everyone was crowding around Issei's desk, why I may ask? Because apparently the little perv made a small, one hundred percent accurate, nude sculpture of Rias herself and judging from his face he didn't know he was doing it.

"…Okay…that is impressive and creepy at the same time" I said to myself

Sure enough the students started getting restless and started clambering over each over, asking Issei if they can have the sculpture that Issei had and others deterring the pervy boys away, all in all the classroom was chaos.

"Huh, I wonder if school has always been this…interesting"

After the disaster that was art class was over I then meet Rias and Akeno outside along with Asia and Issei and when we did Rias then started to inspect the mini Rias sculpture that Issei made and to say she was impressed.

"Wow Issei this is amazing work!" Rias said admiring Issei's work, all while said boy rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment

"Rias you're something, any other women would be embarrassed to find a boy has sculpted their naked body" I said, which made Akeno giggle

"Maybe, but I won't mind a certain someone sculpting me~~" Akeno said, giving me a flirty look as she did

I then blushed greatly, already getting me hot again, but I shook it off quickly.

"Thanks but I'm not really much of a sculptor" I replied, hoping to deter her

"Mabye..but you are good with your hands~~" Akeno said

My cheeks then went red again, my mind already connecting what Akeno was insinuating and of course Akeno's words were causing…less than appropriate images to appear in my head.

'Geez, Akeno is getting more daring, what's up with that?!' I thought

Luckily I was pulled from my thoughts by the sound of hooting and hollering of the school body running to the gym.

"Magical Girl photoshoot, yeah!"

"Come on as members of the photo club we have got to represent!"

"Magical girl?" Issei said in confusion, as well as me

"It can't be!" Rias exclaimed, clearly knowing something we don't

"But it could" Akeno said, clearly knowing what Rias seemed surprised about

So to satisfy our curiosity we then made our way to the gym and true to their words, there was a magical girl right there before us. She seemed to be in slightly in her teens just barely getting into adult-hood, with long black hair that was tied into twin tails and pink colored eyes. As for her attire she wore, as said, a magical girl outfit which consisted of a pink hat with wings on each side, a pink and white skirt, a pink and white sailor uniform, black and pink stockings and black high heel boots and to complete the look a pink staff with a star on top.

"Huh, well what do you" I said, surprised that there was a magical girl here…sort of

"No way, is that a Magical Girl Milky Spiral Seven cosplay?!" Issei shouted, surprising me that he knew that

"Issei, how do you know that outfit?" Asia asked

"Yeah, you don't strike me as the magical girl fan type" I added

"Because, a friend of mine made me watch the whole show for a marathon" Issei replied, rolling my eyes at this

'This world gets weirder and weirder by the day' I thought

It seemed the commotion had finally settled down when Saji got on stage and told the students to get back to class. Sure there were angry at this but in the end they moved on, once they were gone Saji was talking with the girl about why she was there, turns out she was here for open house but the question is who was she related too?

Suddenly the outdoor entrance opened and through it stepped Sona who still carried her serious expression upon her face.

"Saji, what is all this commotion?" Sona demanded, making her devil servant sweat

"Sorry Sona, Just a little something came up is all" Saji said, just as the magical girl looked at Sona causing a look of pure happiness

"I finally found you Sona!" the girl shouted with glee

Seeing and hearing this Sona then suddenly lost her composure for the first time since I saw her, which meant that Sona knew her and for some reason was a little unsettled to see her. The girl then ran off the stage and ran up to Sona, skipping along as she went.

"I've haven't seen you in so long, aren't you happy to see your big sis?!" the girl shouted with glee but it was what she said that surprised me and Issei

"Sona has a sister?" me and Issei said

"That is the lady Serafall Leviathan" Rias said

"Lady Leviathan?" I asked

"Yep she's one the four great devil kings, alongside Sirzechs" Saji added, which surprised me

It honestly surprised that not just one but two great devil kings were related to people here, small world just keeps getting smaller.

Rias then walked up to Serafall to greet her, which she greeted back in kind, honestly with her chipper attitude and her bubbly personality she hardly seemed like she can be related to the stoic Sona.

"So I'm guessing you're here for open house?" Rias asked

"Yeah, but Sona never told me so I had find out on my own" Serafall replied, pouting like child, "Once I did, I was so mad that I almost attacked heaven out of frustration!" she said, pointing her staff upward

"All that because her sister didn't tell her something, geez obsessive much" I said which Issei agreed in kind

Just then the magical girl wearing devil then spotted me and Issei and seemed to be interested in us causing Rias to call us over to meet her, once we did, we then introduced ourselves.

"My name is Issei Hyoudou and I'm a pawn in the service of the house Gremory, nice to meet you" Issei said in a polite tone

"Hello Miss Leviathan, I'm Andrew Stark, pleasure to meet you" I said, bowing as per the Japanese tradition

"I see and I'm the devil king, Lady Leviathan" Serafall said, introducing herself in turn, "But you can call me little Levi!" she shouted out, striking a cutesy pose which honestly just weirded us out

Just then Serafall got right up in my face, honestly looking quite excited about something and I can guess what it was.

"I hear your a superhero right?" she asked

"That's right, I'm the Iron Man" I replied causing her squeal with childlike joy

"Then as the devil king, I hereby ask you to show me your armor!" Serafall demanded

Hearing this I couldn't help but chuckle slightly at this, it reminded me of home where fans would flock to me, asking for autographs and such. So I decided to indulge her and show her my suit. I then rolled up my sleeve and in no time at all the suit then came out of the watch and morphed around me, forming the Prime suit for all to see. Once Serafall saw the armor she instantly went ballistic, shouting at the top of her lungs and squealing her little voice out.

"Wow! You're a real superhero! It's like meeting a magical girl in real life, yeee!" She shouted, sounding like a kid in a candy store

'Odd comparison but okay' I thought

"Hey you know what, we should team up!" Serafall shouted, surprising everyone here including Sona most of all, "I can see it now, the Invincible Iron Man and the Magical Girl Little Levi! Oh someone should make a manage about that!" she said wrapping one of her arms around me

"Absolutely not!" Sona shouted, making Serafall moan in disappointment

"Ah, by why Sona?" Serafall asked

"You know why, just you sparkling could destroy a country, add the destructive power of a human that can fight a leader class there would be chaos!" Sona shouted

"Ah but Sona this is the one chance ever I would get to become a magical girl" Serafall said back, giving her puppy dog eyes as she did

Not wanting to be tempted by those forsaken eyes, Sona ran out of the gym with Serafall hot on her tail as all of us looked on with confusion.

"Geez are all the devil kings like this?" I asked which made Akeno giggle

"Pretty much, overly affectionate and clingy honestly it's very tiring" Akeno replied making feel a little sorry for Sona

"Man…devils are nuts" I said to myself, wondering what more this world had in story for me before I go.

Iron Man is back! That's right I'm starting my Iron Man story back up again and this time I plan on finishing this story. I'm sorry for the…long wait but now Andrew Stark is back and ready to rock the multiverse. I hope you like this chapter and please leave a review about what you think but until then…PEACE!
