(Chapter 2: Let's Get to Work!)
It would be a bit over a week after our quartet had met with their Chapters in order to fully launch their assault on Raynare's forces, so to say that the Fallen Angels under her were swiftly backed into a corner would be a great understatement to the relentless attacks levied at them. For it did not matter if it was at dawn, night, or even in their sleeping hours would the 4 Lecherous Horsemen of Kuoh, begin to launch their attacks against them without a second's notice; leaving scorched earth and death in their wake before moving onwards in their campaign.
All the while the 2 Devil heiresses were left wondering how their territory was at one moment calm as it could be in their case, to a literal warzone were armored soldiers were killing exorcists and fallen angels as though it were for sport in coordinated assaults that were near terrifying to behold due to their ruthless efficiency and almost spiteful aggression.
(October 20th, 2021, 8:40 Pm, East-End Kuoh Town)
It would be 20 minutes till 9 at night at Issei and Matsuda were with a squad from their respective chapters ready to strike out at their opposition full of fallen angels and stray exorcists.
"Hey, Matsuda I've got the enemy coming inbound in 2 armored trucks flanked by 6 fallen angels, mid-ranking ones by the looks of it…Are you and your men ready to bring the pain?" Issei asked over phone-call
"I'm with some of my men in a couple of Rhinos right now, ready to get this party started. Let's show these fuckers who they're dealing with." Matsuda replied
"Alright, and happy hunting brother-man." Issei said back before hanging up the call and turning towards his men
"Everyone, we've got strays and fallen to kill, let's get this done and done properly. I want scorched earth and no survivors left, am I clear?!" Issei told his men
"Sir, yes sir!" Were the roars of the soldiers of the Tyrant's Bane
"Then let's to get to work." Issei said as he summoned a Melta-Gun to his hands from one of his Boosted Gear Gauntlets
From thereon the armored trucks full of Stray Exorcists that had come in via boat and were currently en route towards their destination to meet with the rest of Raynare's forces, at least until they were hit by a combination of Heavy Bolter, Lascannon, and Autocannon fire; from the Rhino's of Matsuda's squads. The combination of plasma and gunfire was such that it sent the armored trucks skidding off the road from having their reinforced chassis either pumped full of bullet holes, Bolter shells, or outright melted through, as they were sent flipping over across the pavement
This left the fallen angels who were flanking either side as further protective detail onto high-alert, at least until Issei led his own men to attack them with a fury that had their hearts pounding in their chest, the moment Issei blasted one of their skulls' to molten smithereens with a shot from his Melta; before using his Power Axe to bisect another straight down the middle. All before his men who flew on Jump Packs or came dashing out of the woodwork would either fire Melta's and Bolters at the fallen angels, who would have their wings incinerated by the Meltas or their chests and wings torn to shreds by armor-piercing Bolter shells.
Wherein Issei's men were either engaging in mid-air firefights against the fallen angels who were trying to regroup, from the sudden ambush as Matsuda's men came rushing out from their own hiding places,or the Rhino's to unleash hell on those who survived their sneak attack. With Matsuda's men either firing in unison with Bolters, Bolter Shotguns, and Lasguns with terrifying precision, the Astral Marauders that Matsuda commanded working as less of a well-oiled machine, and more of a devastatingly efficient execution squad.
All the while, Issei's men were swarming the area with either Chainaxes to shred the Stray Exorcists who had survived and gathering their bearings to a bloody pulp, wielding Power Gladius, Power Swords, and Thunder Hammers to slice and batter their opposition into a bloody pulp. Then if it was at range that the Stray Exorcists tried to counter the assault and form a defensive line, then the squads of the Tyrants Bane would literally burn any chance of that happening by bringing Flamers, Melta-Guns, Pyreblasters, and Melta-Rifles to blaze a path of incendiary destruction.
Wherein anything that was put into the path of the weapons was melted, charred, or set ablaze, turning any barricade into either molten slag or lighting any unfortunate soul to a crisp, and melting them into nothing more than a bubbling, smoking pile of incinerated flesh on sight. All the while those that were unfortunate enough to get in close range were met with being pummeled by Power Fists and Power Mauls until their skulls caved into a bloody pulp, and gutted by Chainaxes, the Chainblades affixed to their weapons, and sliced open by Power Axes that they wielded with brutal efficiency.
As such the combination of the Tyrant's Wrath's relentless incendiary attacks and spiteful aggression in close quarters; mixed with the almost surgical dismantling of the enemy lines of the Astral Mauraders who would fire in almost clockwork-like sequence with one another, or operate as 2-3 man strike teams in close combat to swiftly but efficiently dismantle and enemy before proceeding. Yet none of this was made more exemplary in their leaders who worked with such dynamic teamwork that, allowed them to slaughter the remainder of the fallen angels with devastating efficiency.
Wherein Matsuda would use his combination of Power Fists that housed powerful Storm Bolters that were named Payday and Taxation that he would use to either clobber the fallen into a bloody paste, or pump them full of Bolter shells that would shred his enemies to a pulp. All the while Issei would make sure to speedily rush forwards through the use of his draconic wings to either hack and slash at enemies with his Power Axe to prevent them from getting within so much as an arms reach to Matsuda, or using his Melta-Gun to incinerate their wings and flesh into a roiling, bubbling pulp of flesh and detritus.
Yet as they worked together with Issei being a speedy counter-offensive to deny anyone a sneak attack against his friend in hacking, slashing, and blasting with a level of aggression and hatred that seemed as though it belonged more to a dragon than anything human, and Matsuda being a one-man wrecking crew that bullied his way through the opposition with devastating efficiency. The dynamic duo made sure that any and everything within their reach was either pummeled to a bloody pulp, with shattered bones and caved in skulls abound from the Chapter Master of the Astral Marauders, or hacked and cleaved into ribbons and at range incinerated by Issei's Melta-Gun
The assault against the armored caravan was such that within nearly 4 minutes time would the entirety of what would've been part of Yuuma's reinforcements, were utterly massacred with the bodies of Stray Exorcists and Fallen Angels alike strewn across the battlefield amidst the scrap metal and ruined armored vehicles. Wherein Issei's squad was hard at work to make sure that no traces of the enemy were left, having made use of their incendiary weapons to further scorch the corpses of their fallen enemies to ash, and their vehicles to molten scrap.
"Alright, brother-man how're we looking?" Matsuda asked Issei
"We have sustained zero causalties, a small handful got wounded but nothing too major. Otherwise, the enemy forces have been successfully destroyed…To put it simply, we fucking crushed it." Issei said back
"Awesome, and from what brother-man Motohama texted me; he and his people just finished obliterating a caravan of supplies headed here from Shibuya. So they're double-fucked if they try to re-up on anything." Matsuda told the Red Dragon Tyrant
"Bitchin' anyways, let's keep this party going. We have 3 more of these goons to ambush, plus a horde of Stray Devils to get rid of afterwards…oh nevermind Zenthon said that he's taking care of the Stray Devils right now, so that's a plus." Issei said before getting a message from his 2nd in command that they were detouring to stop said horde
"Awesome, well in that case let's keep this party going. Aika and her crew are being problem to that fallen angel skank, so that just leaves us to do what we do best." Matsuda said back with a wide grin on his face that was matched by Issei
"Say less….Alright, people let's wrap this shit up! We've got more of this skanks' people to take down, I want our targets turned to ash and gutted before sunrise!" Issei ordered to his soldiers who nodded before taking off on jump-packs or speeding off an Assault Bikes
"You heard him, let's pack up and no fucking' around, or my foot will be in so far in your ass that you taste shoelaces! Am I made clear?!" Matsuda said to his men who saluted before hurrying to the Rhinos and onto their own Assault Bikes before speeding off
'Man, I love this shit.' Were Issei and Matsuda's thoughts as Issei flew off into the night via his wings and Matsuda activating his own Jump pack to fly alongside him
(2 nights later, October 22nd, 2021, East-End Kuoh Town, 9:09 Pm)
Meanwhile, in the following Friday night, Aika was with a squad of her own soldiers from her Chapter known as the Midnight Ronin; who were currently using this time to intercept a group of stray exorcists and fallen angels that were attempting an assault against Sona's Queen's home.
"I fail to see why we are doing these Devils a favor? They are old and strong enough to handle themselves should the worst befall them…Honestly, it may do them some good to realize what actual danger is." Came the resonant bass of Aika's 2nd in command
"Believe me, I wouldn't really care about it either Zephyra. However, this one is Sona Sitri's bottom bitch, and if anything happened to her and Sona's big sister catches an ear about it. Then we have to deal with an overprotective siscon who can freeze Japan and Korea 10 times over, and make it look easy." Aika replied to the Hawk Tengu
"Unless, you want to deal with a magical girl Satan-class threat, who has ice powers on her side. Then we have to do this whether we like it or not…Honestly, I would rather be out there doing people dirty with Kunou, but it is what it is." Aika further spoke as she unsheathed her Power Sword from the pocket space of her Absorption Line
"How you and Lady Kunou continue to be friends amazes me. Especially, when the manner of how you two approach things is so starkly different." Zephyra spoke in wondering how the monstrous leader of the Screaming Void and his own were such good friends
"Honestly, when she's not being a horror movie villain on steroids, she's really sweet once you get past her version of justice and how intense she gets…So really, you gotta catch her on the times when she isn't on a campaign or when she's not leading her Legion, or managing her people with her mom." Aika replied as she continued to do last-minute checks on her power armor
"A fair point to be made, nonetheless she remains one of the most terrifying women I have ever known…How she is Lady Yasaka's daughter I do not know…especially after she forced the Nekoshou into compliance before meeting you and your friends." Zephyra said back in still remembering the day when he helped Kunou do so
"That reminds me, just how bad was that mission? I know you and some of her Captains and Lieutenants have mentioned that it was a nightmare…But I gotta ask just how bad it could've been?" Aika questioned her Captain
"I will put it to you this way, Lady Aika. There is a reason why the Nekoshou and Nekomata will never go against the Youkai Faction, or cause trouble ever again…Lady Kunou was the reason why when I served with her; before transferring to your Chapter. The things she did those years ago are the reason why the Nekoshou numbers especially are so low, she always did enjoy making examples out of others. The cat Youkai in what she did to bring them to compliance just so happens to be amongst her most infamous." Zephyra answered back still remembering the horrors that Kunou had what would become the Screaming Void Chapter unleash upon them in order to force them back into compliance
"Suffice it to say, her mother has made sure to keep all of them on a tight leash after what we did…Not that I could blame him after we hung the skinless and writhing husks that were his people on pikes, as just the start. Believe me when I say that having you and your friends alongside Lady Kunou, has done many a great changes for her." Zephyra added in regards to the nearly 30-something kitsune having been a ferocious woman
"Once we're done with these fallen, I'll be sure to visit with her and plan another game night…In the mean time we have work to do, Zephyra. Get everyone into position to intercept." Aika said as she could see over the horizon that their enemy was advancing
Meanwhile, the advancing company's worth of stray exorcists and mid to low-ranking fallen angels continued to make their way towards the home of Sona Sitri's Queen to carry out the plan of their leader, they were stopped when those at the back of their assault force were stopped dead in their tracks. With those looking to see that large grapefruit-sized holes had been blown through their chests, leaving them slumped onto the ground and their cohorts on high alert for whoever were the culprits were hiding.
All the while, as the targets began to spread out to find who were the snipers did Aika have her men get to work on quietly dispatching of their opposition in a 3 pronged assault with Aika taking a group of her men to ambush one section through her Shadow Prison acting as a portal of pure void; the others led by Zephyra using jump-packs to launch and aerial assault; while the team of snipers continued from afar. The fallen angels and their soldiers being still focused on where the gunfire of the hidden snipers were coming from, as one after the other with pinpoint precision; regardless of where they would take cover from, be it cars, behind or beside walls of a house or a motorcycle it did not matter.
Wherein Aika's team would appear a few meters from their marks, with weapons drawn from combat knives to Power Swords, Lightning Claws and Power Blades, alongside Bolt Pistols and Bolt Rifles with silencers attached to them did they quickly move into action. The group of fallen angels and stray exorcists that were on the search for their attackers that had continued to fire at them with hidden gunfire, were soon ambushed by Aika and a quintet of her soldiers who pounced like a pack of wild dire wolves upon their prey.
The opposition not even having a chance to scream as Aika activated her Delete Field to eliminate all sound from the area, as she sank her Power Sword into the throat of a nearby fallen angel; before decapitating them and following it up with a burst of cursed flame from her Black Blaze Flare at an enemy Fallen Angel. While the black-winged man was screaming as he felt his flesh both melt and painfully pulsate as they began to inflate and expand like a warped balloon to the point their flesh and innards began to rip and expand out of their body; did the rest of Aika's team attack.
Which had the contingent of stray exorcists and fallen angels become set upon by those at her back who came out of the darkness, like vengeful spectres either impaling them from behind with Power Swords and Lightning Claws, or slitting their throats and stabbing in the back of the skulls with their Power Blades. All before they threw out a Flashbang after Aika and another Midnight Ronin soldier sliced the throats of their oppositions with their respective weapons, before the explosive went off in a flash of brilliant azure light that blinded the fallen angels and stray exorcists.
Leaving AIka and her soldiers unaffected thanks to their helms shielding their eyes and ears from the blinding light and deafening sound, allowing them to continued unabated as they slashed and gutted their enemy, moving in and out of the darkness to do so. All the while those that were hidden would join in with Bolter fire from their cover, landing headshots, shots to the liver, kidneys, and lungs to immediately debilitate them, or Bolter fire to their joints to literally disarm them and leave them hapless to retaliate or counter a blade to their throat, abdomen or skulls.
As such within the span of a matter of minutes were their quarry either gunned down, had been disembowled, their throats slit, their vital organs impaled from being literally backstabbed, or burned and mutilated by the flames of her Black Blaze Flare. Which after having dealt with them did Aika's team go forward in attacking the next set of the split-apart company of Stray Exorcists and Fallen Angels sent after Tsukbaki, using the Shadow Prison to traverse to the next location with haste.
All the while Zephyra with his squad of soldiers who flew alongside him in a tight formation, descended upon their enemy like a murder of crows, their midnight blue and black armor hiding them well within the darkness of the starry October night. Wherein Zephyra was the first to strike with Lightning Claws that he dubbed Penance and Punishment, using his immense speed and agility to slaughter nearly several of those in eyesight in one swift go with both weapons, causing the dismembered bodies to fall in chunks of smoking meat and bone.
This distracting pass allowed for his men to quickly divebomb them, and take many out by either slicing off limbs with Power Swords and Power Glaives, or by shooting them from above with Bolter Rifles and Lasguns; leaving many with smoking holes in their bodies. Wherein the fallen angels who tried to maneuver out of the way of the sudden ambush faired no better as Zephyra, directed his men to assist in dispatching them with great haste and silent aggression.
Wherein they were met with their wings being shredded by the barbed Lightning Claws of the Captain of the Midnight Ronin, his men blasting them with Lasgun and Bolter fire, before diving down to slice and gut the fallen angels who had their hands blasted away so they could not summon a weapon. Then worse yet their eyes sliced out so they could not see, their throats cut so they could not scream, and their lungs and hearts pierced with said Power Weapons with so much force and swiftness that they could not utter a sound as they were impaled into the ground with a wordless death.
As such with Bolter/Lasgun fire being dealt out at an obscene pace in tandem with the hidden snipers; who had followed them like watchful hawks to continue to aid in dispatching the opposition before them with pinpoint shots to the skull, heart, base of their neck, and lungs; did the ambushed enemy swiftly fall. The area soon being littered with the Bolter shell riddled, dismembered and beheaded remains of Stray Exorcist and fallen angel alike as Zephyra would briefly stop as he and his men continued towards the last remainders of their quarry to contact Aika.
"Lady Aika, how have you and your men fair on your end? We have but 2 more squads worth of the opposition to decimate before we are finished." Zephyra queried via com-link
"We are just about to kill the last few left, Zephyra. After we're done here, do you want us to engage the ones you haven't take care of?" Aika informed the Captain of the Midnight Ronin
"No, we will suffice just fine…I will contact you later; once we have finished with the remainder of our opposition." Zephyra replied
"Understood, and happy hunting, good sir." Aika said before terminating connections with her 2nd in command
'Once this is done, I cannot wait to go forward and aid in dispatching of the greater threat at large. These gutless, spineless crows will suffer the wrath of our Chapter for daring to step foot in Lady Aika's home.' Zephyra swore to himself as he took off alongside his men to finish the mission at hand
(3 days later, Student Council Room, 4:05 Pm, October 25th, 2021)
Meanwhile, Sona was meeting Rias in regards to the progress on trying to acquire any of the Kuoh Academy's 4 Horsemen of Lechery into their peerages.
"So it appears that neither of us have had any luck, as of late." Sona spoke regarding their progress to recruit/acquire any of the 4 perverts
"That would be a resounding no on my part. Honestly, this is far more difficult than I would have thought it to be. You would think that the offer to be met by one of the Academy's 4 Great Beauties; would be enough to draw their attention towards us…But it seems as though we are relying on the wrong ways to have them come to us." Rias replied to Sona with a thoughtful look
"What exactly are you getting at Rias?" Sona questioned
"What I am getting at; is that even if I have my servants try to arrange meetings with them, or your servants have them come on behalf of the Student Council President herself. That the effectiveness of such won't work…why would it when you really think about it." Rias answered back
"Between their disinterest at even attending Kuoh Academy, their shifting their almost abrupt focus away from being the most notorious perverts at Kuoh. Then their attendance dipping steadily, but not enough to cause for expulsion. That we know next to nothing about them to have them want to invest their time into seeing us…Why would they give any of their time, when we are not investing in putting anytime into figuring out who or what they are beyond what we see at the Academy." Rias further spoke knowing that unless they put forth the time and effort into doing so that recruiting any of them was going to be difficult
"I will admit, you do make a compelling point. Given that what we have on them so far while it does make them very compelling assets to recruit. From Hyoudou having a Dragon-type Sacred Gear, Aika Kiryuu holding the Vitra Sacred Gears, Motohama Abarai having the bloodline of a particularly powerful oni, and Matsuda Inoue directly descending from Ghengis Khan himself. All of which make the case for incredibly powerful servants in their own right." Sona remarked at having done some of her own homework on them as well
"Then you can see why it is necessary to invest time into doing this. If we cannot make heads or tails of what it takes to find out what their likes are, who they are behind what we see at the academy, and what they are truly capable of. Then recruiting either one of them into being our servants, much less having them involved in our peerages; will be a waste of time all on its own." Rias responded
"You seem to have thought this through haven't you? Almost as though you have been planning to acquire them even before things have intensified with Riser." Sona noted at the thoughtful bordering on calculating look on Rias's features
"Can you blame me? Especially, when the fallen angel issue has become something out of our hands…Even moreso with our servants reporting to us; of Issei and his friends in armor leading their own to combat the threat that has invaded our doorstep, with an efficiency that far and wide exceeds what we are capable of…How could I when any one of them could help improve not just my peerage, but yours for the better." Rias spoke knowing that if she could convince any one of them to join her that it would improve things greatly for her peerage
"I understand it all too well, I have had my Bishop survey Motohama's actions for example from afar. Suffice it to say, he is exactly what I am looking for in a servant. He is not only powerful, but tactically skilled, diligent and demonstrates an ability of leadership; that is surprising to see in the weeks I have had them observe him…How he has eluded my notice when he holds such talents is so frustrating and yet…respectable at the same time." Sona responded in regards to the Chapter Master of the Emerald Exterminators
"Why do I get the feeling that this is something more than just wanting him as a servant?...By all accounts he would be a potential match to be a 'partner', if you get where I'm going with this." Rias questioned with a cheeky grin that caused a small reddening of Sona's cheeks
"And why do I get the feeling that you presume too much?" Was Sona's immediate response
"Is it really that hard to admit that you might finally have someone who can stand alongside you? Especially when you have run through a large deal of suitors that your parents have put before you…Who knows Motohama might just be a perfect match if you put yourself out there." Rias said in not seeing the harm of doing so
"Even if he is my 'perfect match' as you so eloquently put it. There is still the matter of getting him past Serafall and her chicanery. That, by and large, will be a monumental feat if it is accomplished, and is a secondary reason why I refrain from personal affairs so to speak." Sona said in regards to her siscon of a magical girl big sister
"I cannot argue with you there. At least Sirzechs is reasonable when it comes to who I wish to be with…:Lady Serafall however. She is one of the last people I would want to have meet a significant other of mine, especially with how intense she can be." Rias replied in agreement to the Magical Girl Satan
Wherein Sona absolutely abhorred the idea of having anyone who managed to meet her standards or impress upon her that they were a worthwhile paramore to her, due to the fact that even if things did work out that they would have to deal with the overbearing presence of her sister. After all, who would want to date her when in doing so came with the addition of her nonsensical nightmare of an older sister; who was a constant smothering presence that felt as though if you interfered in her 'Sona time', then the risk of not only you but your friends and family being turned into living popsicles so to speak exponentially increased.
"So you can very well imagine that having a personal life in that regard is incredibly difficult…While I love my sister as much as any sibling would, sometimes I feel as though it would be better if she were more akin to Lord Akuja. At least he does not smother Diodora with an unhealthy amount of sibling affections, and stress him out at every turn." Sona said back with an exasperated sigh
"Would it be a bad thing if I consider turning to alcohol in order to deal with Serafall? While I would not go as far as to become inebriated when dealing with matters at hand. The thought of having liquid courage to deal with her becomes more and more of an appealing thought." Sona added in having considered such things to better deal with Serafall
"I would hold off on drinking for now. While I will admit that she is a bit…much. I would say give it more time before you do so, Sona. With how much she bothers you, I am sure that it may start out as a glass of wine every now and again, but soon enough it will turn into downing entire bottles of absinthe and tequila to make it through the day with her." Rias spoke knowing that as Devils who had their own vices and sins that Sona's sin was very much in the way of gluttony
"Fair enough…still it is something to consider all the same. Honestly, I am surprised you haven't considered it with how much you have been pressured into this arranged marriage. On top of the recent fallen angel skirmishes across Kuoh Town." Sona said back in regards to her redhaired counterpart
"That is because I cannot afford to…As much as I would like to do so, I cannot allow myself to fall to drinking myself to the bottom of a bottle to deal with everything. It would be unfair to have my precious servants see my a drunken slovenly mess, that cannot go a day without downing bottle after bottle of alcohol just to stomach being in Riser's presence, or having to look my mother or Grayfia in the face." Rias told her fellow heiress knowing that she couldn't afford to do so
"That is rather commendable of you, Rias. Especially given your circumstances, one could not blame you for doing so." Sona replied with an undercurrent of respect in her tone
"Thank you, that being said we should figure out how we are going to get them come to us. As well as how we are going to do our part in defeating the fallen angel. It would be unfair to those that are doing their part, if we did not pull our weight." Rias said back
"Agreed, it would be wise of us to figure out how we can contribute to the matter at hand…In doing so, we might just win their favor and aid in future endeavors." Sona replied
'I don't know how I am going to convince you or your friends to join my peerage, but I will more than make the effort to do so. I need to do something not only to beat Riser, but to steer my precious servants in the right direction… especially Gasper.' Were the thoughts of Rias as she and Sona began to navigate on how to obtain their favor and better maneuver the Lecherous Quartet into joining them
(2 hours later, 6:36 Pm, East-End Kuoh Town)
Meanwhile, at Aika's house were Matsuda and Issei visiting with Aika to check in with their fellow pervert-in-arms; all the while was Motohama busy preparing his teams to unleash themselves upon the reinforcements being sent to aid Raynare in her takeover of Kuoh.
"Dude, how the hell is she that good at copying peoples' voices? I swear she sounds like that skank Yuuma you told us about." Matsuda spoke as he heard Aika in the basement of her house that she had converted with arcanely enhanced radio equipment to intercept/hijack magical transmissions
"When you have a Sacred Gear as versatile as hers, plus her being uber-committed to the whole sabotage and infiltration bit; then it makes sense she's going to be scary good at it…I'm just glad she uses her crazy vocal skills for good." Issei responded as he heard her talk in a perfect copy of Raynare's voice
"Honestly, how she hasn't pulled some fuck-shit against the kendo skanks; I will never know...The fact that she's so good at this is one of the reason why I will never cross her." Issei added
"I mean she definitely could fuck with those uppity ass skeezers if asked…Last time I checked, Aika doesn't like their bitch asses either." Matsuda remarked as they stepped into said room
"Its worth a shot, and plus I don't really care for them worth a hot shit. So if we want to do some nasty work to them, and get them out of our hair. Then I'm all for it…are you brother-man?" Issei said to his fellow Chapter Master
"I'm down for whatever, just set it up and we can work with Aika to get some shit done." Matsuda said back as they looked towards Aika
"I can assure you, Lord Kokabiel. That with a few more reinforcements our way; that we can crush the opposition we've faced in no time. Besides, what Azazel does not know won't hurt him. He's too busy tinkering with his toys to care if we reassign assets as needed. Especially if we promise to 'gift' him a few Sacred Gears and test subjects for him to play with." Aika said as she continued to talk under the guise of Raynare
"Very well, I will have some of my comrades work to have it done. But remember, Raynare, you are to deliver to me the Sacred Gears from Hyoudou as promised. I will not have a potential Longinus slip through my fingers, it is bad enough that you went off script and did not capture him as planned. Do not fail me, or I will have you flayed alive and used for Valper's experiments." Kokabiel said back through his end of the transmission
"Understood, Master Kokabiel. Consider it done, and granted it will take time to do so given that Rias Gremory and Sona Sitri have become an issue. But I will see too it that they are taken care of as well." Aika spoke as she alongside some of her soldiers from the Midnight Ronin continued to keep the connection going and untraced back to them
"See too it that you do, and I want Gremory and her half-breed Queen brought to me personally once you are done. The Sitri as well, what you do with their servants is at your own discretion. But those 3 in particular, I want kept alive when you have finished with your mission in Kuoh." Kokabiel ordered
"It will be done, Lord Kokabiel. If nothing else, I will be returning to what needs to be done." Aika said as Kokabiel uttered a few more words of command before the transmission ended
"...Alright, everyone great work. At this rate, we'll be bleeding them dry of men and their supplies in no time. Great work, to Romanov for suggesting to have those fallen dickheads supply routes go the long way through Kyoto. It's gonna be a ton of fun when they get jumped by Kunou's 9th Company." Aika spoke to one of those within the Midnight Ronin's 4th company
"Of course, Lady Aika. It made sense for this to happen; after we had corresponded with the leader of that company. Now any future supply runs to re-up their weapons, ammunition, and other various gear is going to go through the elite of Lady Yasaka and Kunou's own men…I almost feel sorry for them, well almost." Romanov said with a wolfish grin
"Well, I sure don't. As far as I'm concerned, this is going to be hilarious." Aika said back as she took off her noise-canceling headphones and cleared her throat
"Now that we're done for the day, I'd say that you and the others here can go and enjoy the rest of the evening. You've earned it and then some." Aika told the Lieutenant of her 4th Company
"As you wish, Lady Aika. Come on everyone, we've earned a night out…drinks are on me." Romanov responded before gathering those who were assisting with the ploy of impersonating Raynare and taking their leave
"Well shit, Aika. It looks like you've been busy…Honestly, if you ever wanted to do early retirement and do something else. Then you would make a killing as a voice actress." Issei spoke as he walked into the room alongside Matsuda
"Originally that was the idea; before we started the Legion and our Chapters…Become a voice actress who would snatch roles left, right, and center for kickass anime and cartoons. Crossover into being a variety Vtuber to make further bank in addition to being one of the most goated voice actors in the world." Aika replied as she stood up from her seat to shake the pins and needles from her legs
"But once we got the Legion up and running and I realized that I could put my skills to better use; being a menace and throwing enemy communications out of whack. Then all it took was listening to the enemies vocal patterns, tone and inflection of their voice, as well as their pitch and cadence. Then presto, I can have my men and I hijack their transmissions to their allies and just ruin everything for them; at the drop of a hat." Aika further spoke with a broad as could be grin on her face
"Well, it's definitely starting to put in that work. Between Issei and i putting in that work on the frontlines, Motohama and his peeps decimating their reinforcements from making it here in one piece; along with any wargear. Plus you doing some nasty work like a fucking ninja, they ain't gonna be shit by the time Christmas comes up!" Matsuda responded regarding the fact that as it currently stood the fallen angels in question little to any chance against them
"When did they ever stand a chance against us to begin with, Matsuda? If anything they should be glad that we've 'given' them a handicap, and not called the full strength of our collective chapters on their heads." Aika spoke
"We could have if we chose too, but that by itself would have been a waste of time. I would rather not pull our men from their operations to do something that we can handle with the strength we already have." Issei said in seeing it as a waste of resources to do so when they were winning in dominant fashion as is
"Fair enough, still what are we going to do one we have Yuuma or Raynare; as I've found out she's called cornered?" Aika questioned
"Once we take a few more of her allies out of the equation, as well as destroy some more of her soldiers. Then we will launch our assault against her, and the 4 of us will eliminate her personally…Either that or shove her ass inside of a Hellbrute more than likely." Issei answered back as to what his plan was
"Are you sure you want to put her bitch-ass in one of those things? I'm pretty sure there's a lot more fuckers that are worth our time, we could put into one of those." Matsuda questioned in wondering if Issei wanted to go for that option
"Considering that I am feeling particularly petty about her having tried to kill me, when all I did was take her on a pity date. Then you bet your ass I'm shoving her inside one. It's what she fucking deserves for being on her bullshit." Issei answered back spitefully
What with the Red Dragon Tyrant having made up his mind and already contacted Seekvaira in readying a Hellbrute for Raynare/Yuuma to be interred into one; given that the fact she was a bitch to him for literally no reason; had lit the roaring inferno of pure spiteful fury within him. Hence why in Issei's mind it wasn't enough just to see her terminated for what she had attempted to do to him, and would attempt to do in taking his home over and further turning it into a warzone under Kokabiel's orders…no, no, no; her being incased inside the war machine that had been malformed by Devil and Black magic would suffice.
"I cannot let that shit slide, Matsuda. Her ass goes in a Hellbrute plain and simple, I've got plans for her ass and I'm gonna make sure she never forgets what comes next." Issei further spoke his eyes briefly turning the absinthe green of his partner in crime
"Hey, I'm not against it my guy. It has just been a fat minute since I've seen you get this pissed." Matsuda spoke in having rarely seen Issei get angry enough to want someone put in a Hellbrute
"Well, when it involves them trying to murder me; to help someone kick off World War 3 on steroids. Then I'd say that about does it and then some…The last fucking time, I go on a pity date with anyone." Issei spoke with an irritated bestial snort
"If it'll make you feel better, I can start running interference for their supply runs; so they'll get bombarded by yours and Motohama's men." Aika told the Boosted Gear wielder
"That would make me feel better, yes." Issei replied in petulant glee of such a thing
"Give me a few days and I'll have my men and I back at it. Meanwhile, my men that have infiltrated their base have told me that they're going to meet with a few evil dragons that are flying in from Stockholm to help them out….They'll be meeting at Yamamoto Cemetery tomorrow night, which should give you two enough time to set up an ambush of your own." Aika informed them
"What do you say, brother-man/ are you ready to go dragon slaying?" Matsuda asked as Issei gave a predatory grin
"You know my answer as always, Matsuda…scorched fucking earth, plain and simple." Issei answered back with a smile that fit more upon a dragon than it did a normal persons' face
"Then let's get to it, I'll call Zenthon into bring in some of our fun stuff for this one." Issei added all too excitedly
"Good luck you two, in the meantime I'm going to work with Zephyra some more. With everyone who has continued to relay information regarding Yuuma's forces. We need to work towards hitting the armories they have within the Town…we do that and we can gut them from putting up a decent fight even more." Aika informed them
"Then good luck and godspeed to you, Aika…Come on, Matsuda we've got dragons and and fallen angels to fuck up." Issei told the Chapter Master of the Midnight Ronin before turning to his fellow pervert-in-arms
"Way ahead of you…shhiiiitttt, we about to be rollin' in deep with Rhino's and Land Raider's like a motherfucker." Matsuda responded as he high-fived Issei as they headed out of the basement
'It is a good thing that I love those two idiots. They really do make being in the Legion something special.' Was Aika's thoughts as she headed upstairs to grab herself a Dr. Pepper and relax with some Jojo's Bizarre Adventure for the evening
And so as the Lecherous Quartet of Kuoh engage in their own campaign against the forces of Raynare in a heated conflict all on their own, Rias and Sona begin to plan and plot as to how they can acquire any of of the perverted Chapter Masters onto their Peerages as powerful servants. As such how will things continue for our perverted heroes; while they continue to engage against the fallen trespassers within their home? Well…stay tuned and find out in the all new installments of, DXD: A Tyrant's Legion!
Alright, that'll do it for this one, as I hoped everyone has enjoyed the start to the campaign against Raynare and her forces, since it only gets more amped from hereon and as such I hope you guys will be willing to stick around for all of what's to come. Also, all of the support you have shown the story so far means a lot to me and I hope that you guys will stick around for all of what's to come.
So with all that being said, this is Nomadic Chaos 888 using the power of said Chaos and our Patron of murder and mayhem (Blood for the Blood God, and Skulls for his Skull Throne!) to give you guys great stuff to read. Wherein next chapter shall continue our intrepid quartet keeping the pain going against Raynare's forces among other things in the works unfolding, so stay tuned for all of that good stuff.
