Chapter 34: Miniaturized

"Okay, that wraps it up." Rias compiled her papers and safely kept them in a folder, "Thank you Miho."

"Only because Hanwei-sama would be troubled by it."

"Thanks a lot Miho. You really helped us out." Daisuke thanked.

The familiar smiled, "It was my pleasure, Hanwei-sama."

Rias felt a vein throb in her forehead at the completely bias treatment. Calming her irritation, the King still felt grateful that the salamander helped her out with her club activity report. Because of the due date for her to submit it is earlier than last year's, she completely forgot about it with all that has happened recently.

In order to attain credits for Rias to stay in Kuoh and not get sent back to the devil school in the Underworld, she needs to do research on youkais or monsters living in Japan. Fortunately, her servant has a salamander who is living with her right now. Spirits are rare so having one with knowledge of her species and lineage who enjoys living in a human country would give her plenty of good information.

"I didn't know you guys have to do research on youkais. I thought the devils were hardly on good terms with Yasaka-san."

"Technically yes." Rias responded with a wry smile, "But Kuoh is a small town compared to Kyoto. As long as we have permission from her and not do anything bad, we get some leeway with the youkais. There are also youkais who are not following Yasaka here in our town. Last year we had help from a kappa."

"Kappa?" Miho tilted her head, "I was not aware that they live in such urban areas."

"This one in particular did not want to inherit his family's cucumber business and aspired to be a rapper."

"Rapper?"

"It's a type of popular music where you recite words rapidly and rhythmically, usually with an instrument." Daisuke informed Miho, "But still, I thought rappers would prefer going to the US instead of here."

"Koneko-chan knows him and is a fan of his rapping."

"Really?" The Rook quirked up an eyebrow in interest, "Maybe I'll go see what he's like."

"Unfortunately his father has a disease and he went back home. I thought about asking another youkai but he's also sick so Miho was my last option."

"The way you spoke somehow irks me."

Daisuke gave Miho a head pat before the situation escalates, "It's getting late. Just because it's summer vacation, we shouldn't stay up too long."

"You two go on ahead. I still need to submit this." Rias grabbed her folder and went back to her room.

Miho was slightly nonplussed by the vixen's action, normally she would jump at the chance to adhere herself to Hanwei-sama's side. Well she wasn't gonna look at a gift horse in the mouth, now the familiar can have her master all to herself.

Ever since the day when Khaos Brigade attacked the school, Hanwei-sama has given her permission to sleep with him every night. Now she can keep a closer watch on the vixen and feel the warmth of her master. Every night where the salamander can inhale his scent on his body felt like bliss coursing through her flames, and right on her favorite season when the sun felt the hotness.

The two went to the Rook's room as Miho cuddled to his side as usual. They felt comfortable in each other's presence and fell asleep.

...

The door opened silently, revealing Rias in her nightgown peeking in. She smirked as those two slept soundly without a care in the world, just as she wanted. The King tiptoed, careful to not make a noise while holding a vial of liquid in her hands. Yes, she did need to submit her report but that only require a simple teleportation spell to the devil school.

What really took her time was to finish a specific spell she's been dying to use on Daisuke. She's been preparing this for a while and now was her chance to do it. Slowly and steadily, Rias approached to her beloved, admiring his handsome sleeping face for a minute before opening the vial. Now is the moment of truth!

"Ahem."

A sudden sound spooked Rias, making her nearly drop the container before turning to an angry salamander. Miho slowly got out of the bed, careful to not wake her master up and got in front of the red head. The King almost felt repentant as the salamander leveled her a hard glare.

"I knew your actions warrant suspicion." Miho couldn't see very well in the dark, but her eyes have adjusted enough to see what Rias was about to do. She pointed at the small bottle and whispered, "What were you about to drug Hanwei-sama with?"

"Drug? This isn't a drug, I just wanted Daisuke to relax after that battle with the Hakuryuukou. It is an incense that will help him sleep better."

"Do not test my patience vixen." The air began to simmer around Rias, "If that was true, you would have given it to Issei as well."

Rias cursed under her breath and gave up, "Fine, this is actually to help my spell to turn Daisuke into a little child again."

Miho cooled down, bewildered but still vigilant, "A child? Why would you revert Hanwei-sama back into a hatchling?"

"Do you remember onii-sama showing him pictures of me as a child? Daisuke gushed at my cuteness and I wanted to see what he's like as a little kid."

"This is absurd." The familiar nearly yelled, "You would be putting his life in jeopardy, Hanwei-sama cannot protect himself as a hatchling. He will be preyed upon as his strength will also be diminished."

"It is only temporary, I can turn him back anytime I want. I only want to see, hug, and take pictures of cute little Daisuke. Surely you can understand how I feel."

"Not in the slightest. Why would I need any of those when I already have them by asking him?"

"No, not the teenage Daisuke. I mean the little one." Rias entered her business mode, desperate to win no matter the cost, "Think about it, wouldn't you love to see what Daisuke is like? All innocent, carefree, and asking you to carry him."

The salamander was thinking about, she has seen the stark contrast in the difference between human adult and juvenile. There was no denying that Miho is curious and interested to see the younger version of Hanwei-sama.

"And think about the childish actions of him trying to make you happy. He might even call you 'onee-chan'." Truthfully, Rias wanted this all for herself but at this point, she needs to convince Miho or she'll fail. Sharing is still better than getting nothing at all.

"Would he not be angry?" Miho asked tentatively.

The red head grinned, just one more push, "Of course not, it will only be temporary. After a few hours of cuddling the soft, warm, adorable little Daisuke, he'll be back to normal."

But to do that without his permission? Hanwei-sama always asked what the pinkette likes to get to know her better, and remembered when Rias and Akeno attempted to convince the familiar to allow her master to have a harem. He doesn't want that, and she's sure he doesn't want this either. Miho shook her head and growled, making Rias' victory smile drop, "No, I cannot allow that to happen."

Miho attempted to grab the vial in Rias' hands, but the latter still wouldn't give up and pulled back. The two girls kept up their pseudo tug of war, neither willing to let go of the little bottle and exerted more stregth. They grunted, their arms all over the place to claim their prize. Up, down, left, right. The vial was all over the place. And since this is a crack story, the flask impossibly slip out their grasp and flew into the air.

Their eyes looked up, watching it whirling around before ceremoniously landing in between them. A small explosion enveloped the two girls in red gas. Once subsided, in place of the curvaceous and gorgeous women any straight male would kill to date, were two lovable teeny tiny girls in oversized pajamas. They looked at each other and then at themselves, noticing how much larger the Rook's room is than before.

Baby Miho cutely glared at baby Rias, "Dis ish all ur fault! Gyah!" And proceeded to baby wrestle.

All the while Daisuke was still asleep, his hand unconsciously moving around to find his salamander's warmth.

Ugh, somehow my chest feels heavier and hotter than usual. I blearily opened my eyes, seeing two absolutely adorable kids staring right back at me, "Aww, come here."

My arms went to envelop them, hugging the two closer to me. I felt so at ease, their soft bodies and fragrant scent lulled my body into a state of deeper trance. My muscles relaxed as I closed my eyes back. They work even better than hug pillows, their warmth set a wave of comfort all over my body, not even the light filtering from my curtains could bother me. The sensation, the smell, the warmth. For a dream, this feels so real.

...

Too real.

Slowly reopening my eyes, I find the pairs of blue-green and pink slitted counterparts staring right at me.

I blinked.

They blinked.

I blinked twice.

They blinked twice.

I blinked three times.

They still did the same.

"... This isn't a dream, is it?"

They simultaneously shook their heads left and right.

All right. I slowly sat up with the kids in my arms, careful to not roughly shake them. On closer inspection, I noticed the red head kid was wearing Rias' nightgown and the pinkette was wearing a familiar pajama top, and on the floor next to my bed was Miho's pajama pants and broken pieces of glass. Both of them look like three or four-year-old versions of Rias and Miho.

Except the little pinkette has reddish pink scale-like markings covering her skin like armor, there was even a short tail sticking out of her behind.

It's the world of magic with unrealistically beautiful big breasted women, so I guess something like this is possible, "Okay, I'm guessing you're both the real Rias and Miho." I received collective nods, "For now, I need to figure out what happened and get you two back to normal."

Baby Miho suddenly pouted and pointed at baby Rias, mumbling some gurgles and baby talks. The little red head pouted back and they began to pull each other's hair. I intervened, "Hey stop it!"

They went stiff at my raised voice. Furrowing my eyebrows, "Listen, I don't what's going on but there will be no fighting. Indefinitely. We can talk about it after the problem is solved, do you understand me?"

They went teary-eyed, but obeyed and nodded solemnly. I smiled and patted their heads, "Good girls, let's get some breakfast and we'll have ice cream and sushi." The sad faces instantly disappeared and they nodded happily this time. I knew ice cream would work on most kids but Miho's a salamander, at least she still likes sushi.

After getting dressed, I carried the two to the dining table, preparing bread and jam for them. I tried cooking an egg but it was barely edible so I ate it myself, guess having Miho to cook for me for so long deteriorated my rudimentary cooking skills. Amusingly, baby Miho spat some fire and toasted her bread before chowing it down. She's never done that before.

Booting up my laptop, I played some kid videos to distract them and made a clone, ordering him to go buy ice cream and sushi. After that I made a phone call, "Morning Akeno, sorry to disturb you so early in the morning."

"Ara ara, did you miss me so much that your sexual desires increased? I can help you anytime you want."

"Nah, I usually need to go to the bathroom first thing in the morning so anything erotic is unnecessary. I actually need to ask you a favor."

"Ufufu, something even Rias and Miho-chan cannot do?"

"Uh..."

"Baby fish, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo~"
"Baby fish, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo~"
"Baby fish, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo~"
"Baby fish~"

I checked on the kids who were engrossed in a song, their heads were bopping to the tune and in Miho's case, her tail was also bopping around. "Yeah. Can you buy some clothes for three to four-year-old girls and bring them to my place?"

*Ding Dong*

"Sorry Akeno, someone's visiting me." I went to open the front door and find... Akeno?

"Would these do?" She showed me the contents in her bags, filled with of cute clothes for little girls.

"... How did you get these so fast?"

"I was idly cutting and sewing my old clothes the other day while imagining our future together on my free time. And my answer is 'I do'."

Rubbing my temples, "No, I'm not asking for your hand in marriage. I need these clothes for the unexpected babysitting I need to do."

"Babysit?" I took the bags as the Queen took off her shoes and entered, "Whose children are you babysitting?"

Akeno followed my pointed finger, her eyes were fixed on baby Rias and baby Miho for a few seconds before slowly turning her head back to me. She opened her mouth-

"If you're going to ask if I already have daughters with Rias and Miho or I turned them into children because I'm a pedophile, the answer is a big fat no."

She closed her mouth, a hand cupping her cheek in thought before opening again, "Then did a magic spell go wrong somehow?"

"Probably. When I woke up, I already found them like this. And there was broken shards of glass on the floor so that's gotta be it."

"And you do not recall this happening in your world?"

"Nope, either my actions somehow triggered a completely new event or this happened in the light novel which I didn't read."

"Well for now, I'll go help them get changed. Maybe it's best to call everyone else to gather."

I nodded in agreement and made a group call to the rest for an emergency meeting. And then I went next door to get a certain fallen, his intelligence will be useful. Knocking, "Azazel open up, I need your help with something."

A few minutes later, he came out tired and yawned, "Jeez kid, it's summer vacation, don't you sleep in?"

"Not when some unknown spell turned my boss and familiar into toddlers."

He paused in mid-yawn and straighten up, "Alright, I'll be there in a minute."

By the time I made it back, the two were in cute outfits. Baby Rias spun around, "Aikeh, pweety?"

Baby Miho clumsily curtsied which made her cuter, "Pweety?"

Smiling, I head pat them and resisted the urge to hug them, "Yup, very pretty."

"Ara ara," Akeno suddenly hugging my back, her assets pressing onto me, "when you think about it, we look like a married couple right Daisuke-sama?"

The little girls pouted and pulled my pants, upset by the Queen's actions.

Sighing, this was so not how I wanted to start my vacation.

"So you mean to tell me that they're the real Buchou and Miho?" Issei asked.

"Confirmed it with my Tenkugan, it's them alright." I adjusted myself, the girls were sitting on my legs while I'm sitting on a chair, my hands around their waist to make sure they don't fall off, "Did anyone notice anything weird about them?"

"No, nothing of the sort." Yuuto answered, confused like everyone else.

"But they are very cute." Asia squealed, closing in to get a better look at the children. They were a bit startled by the blonde but tried to act tough.

"We are able to change our appearance, but it seems their emotional and mental behavior matches according to their age." Forcuis speculated.

"Really?" Issei snapped his attention at the swordsman, "We can do that?"

"Did you forget I did the same when we first met? Appearances can be deceiving." Raynare supplied.

"Now the problem is, how are we going to turn them back?" Xenovia asked.

"Well, sitting around isn't gonna help us." Azazel finished his tea and stood up, "Let's all find a way to dispel the technique. I'm gonna go do some research."

"Then I will go to Daisuke-kun's room. That is where the spell occurred after all." Akeno left in a hurry.

"I don't have any porn stash if that's what you're looking for."

"Trust me, he really doesn't."

"Wait a second, Azazel why do know that?"

"See ya." The Governor General bolted before I could say more.

"In that case, Koneko-chan and I will try to find any spell that can change them back."

"Leave it to us senpai."

"Maybe a fallen angel spell might help, I'm gonna check the books." Raynare said.

"I'll help you out Yuuma-chan."

"M-me too Raynare-san."

"Magic is not my specialty so maybe I'll go and train. Forcuis, do you want to spar with me?"

"A clash with the wielder of Durandal? Interesting."

"That settles it. Let's go Gasper."

"E-e-eh!? I'm going too? Noooo! Daisuke-senpai, save meeee!"

...

With that they all went their separate ways. I look down and saw their big adorable eyes staring back at me. Wait a second, I just thought of something. If Miho is a loli now, does that make me lolicon? I stared at her, waiting to see if my heartbeat changes whenever her beauty captivated me and makes me want to embrace her.

Baby Miho tilted her head cutely in confusion, "Anweih-chama?"

... Fuck, I need to turn her back to normal before I commit something.

Luckily, my clone brought back some paper and crayons for the kids to draw with. I know children have a lot of energy first hand so their attention needs to be diverted elsewhere and I won't wear myself out. Trust me, children have more energy than anyone, especially when they're supernatural children.

It wasn't long until Azazel and Akeno came back, "Alright, I found a way to reverse the spell but we're gonna need ingredients."

"So we're going scavenger hunting? Where?"

"In different places. Akeno is coming with us since we'll need her help with something."

She frowned in disdain, "If I can help Rias and Miho-chan, I suppose I can tolerate your existence."

The Governor General still smiled like he heard nothing, "There you have it. Let's go Daisuke, we're burning daylight. I already informed the others that we're leaving so chop chop."

I felt the hem of my shirt being tugged, the culprits were two sad kids.

"Aikeh?"

"Don leave."

Turning back to the fallen, "Think you can find a way to get these two to stay?"

"Would hypnotism or sleeping gas do?"

"No." I denied firmly, "We are not gonna use magic or chemicals on them."

"Then we'll bring them along, I'll make sure they'll be safe from harm."

"Harm?" I stared at the flippant old crow, "How dangerous are the places we're going?"

"Not enough to hurt anyone but enough to entertain me while you're working up a sweat." He said shamelessly with a smile.

My eyes twitched, "And we're not bringing anyone else because...?"

"Are you kidding me!? I haven't had a road trip like this in a long time. No way I am not gonna enjoy myself."

"... Akeno, if Azazel does something stupid, you have my full permission to zap him senseless."

The Queen's silent distaste of Azazel was gone, replaced by sadistic glee, "Ufufu, I cannot be more grateful Daisuke-sama."

"Oh ho." The pervert wiggled his eyebrows, "My seventh sense tells me that-"

"Not in front of the children." I interrupted him, annoyed with his carefree attitude. Carrying the little girls into my arms, "Come on Rias, Miho. We're going on an adventure."

"Yay! Adventure!"

"Adventure!"

One fallen angel style teleportation later, we arrived somewhere in a mountain. We were wearing thick jackets since the first destination was a bit cold. Azazel was in front with Akeno and I (while carrying the toddlers) trekking up behind him. The scenery was nice, filled with lush greenery, fresh mountain air, and we got a view of the neighboring mountains with absolute no pollution.

"This place is so serene. Wish Issei and the rest could come with us, it's like we're in a beautiful painting or something."

"There's a reason for that actually." The Governor General started while pulling out a pair of binoculars, "We're in the more western part of the globe, hidden by society as this place is monster territory. We're looking for a minotaur."

"Minotaur? You mean the creature with the body of a man and the head of a bull?"

"Bingo. They're not very tough individually but as a group, they could be a problem. Our first ingredient is a minotaur liver, its coagulating properties will help stabilize the formula we need to turn the little juniors back to normal. If the situation gets sticky, just blast them with your wind ball spell-"

"Rasengan." I corrected him.

"-and they'll topple down like dominos. You're more than enough to handle a herd."

"Okay, assuming you're just gonna fool around while keeping an eye on these two, what's Akeno's role in this?"

"I will be assisting with the next ingredient. The next one will be a bit tricky."

*Roar*

Azazel grinned and put away his optical instrument, "Right on time. Daisuke, you're up."

Asking for the war veteran's help would most probably be useless, he seems more in favor of having fun than helping out. Aw well, at least I can exercise. Setting down baby Rias and baby Miho, I told them to stay put and walked ahead to meet the piece of meat. It wasn't in sight when he roared, so I'm guessing it has a good sense of smell.

The sound of stomping became louder as I flexed my neck. And out came a huge minotaur, standing at least triple my height with bulging muscles with an axe and a shield. It's angry eyes locked onto me and snarled. Seeing his weapon, I decided to draw out Dream Sword and entered my stance.

It roared once more and swung down, ready to slice me in half while I blocked it with my blade. A small shock wave spread as both of us grunted. I wasn't using Double Burst or magic but this bull is still pretty strong. Letting his axe slide down to the ground, I got into its guard and swiped his legs. He leaped back, wary of my strength. Before I could make my next move, I heard... chopping noises?

"Keep up the good work Daisuke. Make sure the liver is intact." I looked back and saw Azazel sitting at a dining table along with the kids, Akeno was at a camping stove, setting it up.

"Really?" I raised an eyebrow, ducking from the axe and kicked the minotaur away, "Do you guys really need to have a picnic now of all times?"

"Of course we do. You said it yourself, the nature here is breathtaking." Azazel cheerfully smiled and pointed at the girls, "Plus it's almost lunch time, we gotta feed them something."

"Meat!"

"Hungry."

"Sensei, I am done cutting the ingredients." Akeno brought plates of veggies, spices, and sauce to the table, "This will be interesting, I never had minotaur meat before."

"Minotaur meat?" I raised both eyebrows and pointed at the bull, "We can eat that thing? I almost feel like a cannibal since its body is like a human's."

"You bet. You're new here so you must have never tried it before either but minotaur meat tastes absolutely delicious. And Akeno here would be happy to cook it to perfection for you to show off her kitchen skills."

Akeno fidgeted, hands on her flushing face, "Anything to be a good wife."

"Did you say 'delicious'?" I asked slowly.

"More like addicting, imagine it as steak from a five-star restaurant." Azazel affirmed.

I turned back and eyed the minotaur. Its instincts must be flaring because once he saw my hungry gaze, it stepped back in trepidation. And then it started to sweat when he heard my stomach growling.

"Lunch."

That one word snapped its restraints as the minotaur ran away from me like a little girl, mooing in fear.

"Hey! Get back here!"

I chased after it deeper into the mountains. When my food saw me catching up, it discarded its weapons and began running on all fours, still terrified for his life. As it made it to the other minotaurs, it flashed an expression of relief to its backup. Only for it to despair as the herd ran away as I made clones, each with equally hungry expressions and sharp pointy Dream Swords.

"Are you certain I have permission to step into your private training ground?" Forcuis asked after taking a break from the sword clash with the blue haired Knight. She may have more power, but he has more speed and technique. After some time, the sensor got a hang of picking up energy spikes from the legendary Holy Sword and outmaneuvered Xenovia. They were almost even.

"Fret not. Azazel-sensei has visited us a few times already, I am sure Rias-buchou would not mind." She replied nonchalantly, "I have heard of you from Hanwei's stories, you were the first to ever drive him to his absolute limit."

"Ah yes." The fallen took pride in those words for a moment, reminiscing the good fight he had with Daisuke, "He was newly reincarnated at that time and lacked speed and experience but compensated with resourcefulness and deception. But I had no idea he could improve so much in such a short time."

"Don't be too disappointed with yourself, I was frustrated at first until I saw him training until he nearly collapses. Asia had to heal his sore muscles the longest among us." Xenovia simply shrugged with her sword stabbed in the ground, "He also has a habit of testing with his magic."

"Something what most humans would naturally enjoy. They have this perception of utilizing powerful and destructive spells rather than training their bodies."

"Speaking of training." Xenovia walked to a certain box, "Gasper, you haven't done much other than with your Sacred Gear. Time to move your body."

Forcuis grabbed a towel and wiped his sweat. It's been days since he moved into an apartment. He, Raynare, and Azazel-sama have their own residence on the same floor as Daisuke's and he was starting to get used to the new environment. Kuoh is small but quaint. Not for long though, his leader apparently has some plans for this town. And it will most probably annoy the Rook and other devils. At least Forcuis has an excuse of being a subordinate who must obey his leader to escape from the Aoi Arashi's wrath.

It was almost surreal to him, cooperating to defeat a Cadre-class traitor with his former enemies and even finding some solace during his confusion. He had heard that the Gremory devils treat each other like family unlike most other devils. It was different from the militaristic approach before he and his team were assigned to be Azazel-sama's assistants/bodyguards but he doesn't mind, it clears his mind to see from another perspective.

He smiled wryly in morbid nostalgia, hard to believe he was such a stickler to the rules and quick to use physical force to complete his missions no so long ago. Being used as pawns and betrayed have taught him kindness he suppose.

His relaxation came to a halt when he sensed someone a few meters behind him. That shouldn't be right, there was only supposed to be three people here. Forcuis silently peered through the rocks and found... a moving box?

The box halted and saw the fallen. The two holes shined red before Gasper emerged and whispered, "Please don't tell Xenovia-senpai."

Straining his sensory abilities, Forcuis found that the box the Knight was in front of was empty. The vampire used a decoy box to trick Xenovia when they were sparring in order to escape. Smart.

Now what to do? Should he tell Xenovia that her kouhai is running away or allow Gasper to flee from his senpai? Forcuis wasn't sure since he wasn't part of Gremory-dono's peerage.

Xenovia charged up Durandal, "Come out Gasper and evade my holy waves. You can't stay there forever."

She still sent holy aura towards it without waiting for a reply. Xenovia was greatly surprised when no one was there when the box was ripped in half and turned to her sparring partner. Unfortunately for the Bishop, the bluenette also saw him and smiled, "Excellent evading tactic Gasper. Seems like Hanwei has taught you some stealth."

"Um, yeah." The introvert simply played along.

"Alright, now let's see how fast you can move. Forcuis, would you like to join me?" Xenovia said energetically and chased after her terrified target.

"I will refrain." Forcuis answered and watched the two. He internally questioned whether life-or-death training exercises were frequent here but didn't dare to risk accidentally killing the vampire and getting killed himself.

"Wonder if storage circles can preserve food for long periods of time? Don't want to let all the minotaur meat go to waste."

"Don't think so. Only specialized spells can keep food fresh. Unless you made yours with that specific function in mind, it won't work." Azazel threw the meat into his storage circle and smiled cheekily, "Which is why I have one. This will last for a week."

"You're not gonna hog all of it after I had to hunt them down are you?" I asked in annoyance.

Azazel placed a hand over his heart and asked with a hurt tone, "What do you take me for? Do you really think that low of me?"

I deadpanned.

"Okay maybe I would have but seeing your stunt was already my payment. I didn't think you would actually rodeo those minotaurs into submission."

Shrugging, "You can thank the clones for that. By the way," I shifted the kids in my arms. After feeding them until their bellies were full, they're getting drowsy, "where's Akeno?"

"Right here." The Queen said behind me but when I turn around, she was wearing a thin cloth instead of her casual clothes. This wouldn't be a problem if I wasn't sure she wasn't wearing anything else. By thin, I mean really thin. Her nipples were poking at the fabric, her plump thighs and below were clearly visible as the slit opened just beneath her waist. Akeno sashayed her hips and gave me a blow kiss, "Are you pleased Daisuke-sama?"

It's a real good timing that baby Rias and baby Miho were dozing off, they're way too young to see this.

"Please don't tempt me when we're on a mission Akeno. And why are you wearing that?"

"It's a special fabric to get our next ingredient-"

"If you're gonna lure in some simple-minded horny monster, I'll almost feel sorry when she fries it."

"-which is the horn of a unicorn. This monster only opens itself around pure virgin maidens." Azazel continued, unfazed by my retort, "That cloth will suppress her devil nature and draw it to her."

"Does it include suppressing sadism and masochism?" I asked half seriously.

"As long as she doesn't think about them."

"Ara ara, that is quite a problem. Daisuke-sama is the very manifestation of my trigger." Akeno placed a hand on her cheek, her face showed playfulness, "I just cannot get his sculpted muscles out of my mind."

"I'm able to get that impossibly hot body of yours out of my mind. If I can do it, so can you."

"Flirting already, now I feel like the third wheel." The pervert threw an arm over my shoulders, but not hard enough to shake the kids, "You gotta give me the juicy details."

"Get your arm off of me before I give you a Rasengan instead."

After doing a little more preparing and Akeno sending me suggestive winks, Azazel and I hid in the bushes while the latter walked towards a lake. The lake was quite beautiful actually, crystal clear and free of impurities. We're in the middle of a forest with fresh air, green tress and no pollution. Quite similar to the mountains, guess monsters and youkais are like animals that prefer living in peace with serene nature.

While Akeno was by the lake and waiting, Azazel whispered to me, "So, how far have you gone with Akeno?"

"She's my first magic teacher, I consult to her about some spells and she sometimes rewards me with pastries."

"Come on Daisuke, you know what I'm talking about." He wiggled his eyebrows, "How can you not want to bang a fine woman like her?"

"Because I don't want Baraquiel-san to fry my testicles to a crisp."

"That old grump won't be a problem after I smooth things out for you. Trust me, once I'm done you'll know how to pleasure any lady out there without breaking a heart."

"Says the remaining single guy out of the top dogs in Grigory."

"You cheeky little fucker. Do you have an answer for everything?" Azazel strained a smile and did his best not to strangle me. That all left when he sighed and examined Akeno in nostalgia, "So you know what happened between her and her father... Do you blame him?"

"Nah, though I would like to hear his side of the story some day."

"Akeno sure has grown from a small child into quite a beauty. What would you do if someone tries to hurt her?"

"I'd probably knock him out and gift wrap him to Akeno so she has another victim to torture."

Azazel beamed comically, "I would pay to see that. Out of all the fallens in existence, Akeno's probably got the most erotic body. There's bound to be shameless men who would want her, but now I can be at ease." He suddenly ruffled my hair fondly, "If there's any man out there who I can trust Akeno with, it's you."

"What are you? Her perverted godfather?" Despite trying my best to be sarcastic, I couldn't stop the blush of embarrassment, "Is this the reason why you pick Akeno instead of Asia to get that horn?"

"Has anyone ever told you you're too smart for your own good? Just be quiet and let me be proud of her. Hey look, it's here."

From the bushes, a majestic white horse with a horn on its head emerged, its body almost glowing and sparkling in ethereal light. The unicorn locked gaze with Akeno and walked closer to her. The Queen stretched out her hand, letting it take a sniff before approaching even closer. She then hugged its neck, gently caressing the white fur. They were happy with each other's silent company in their fantasy-like atmosphere.

And then she karate chopped it into unconsciousness.

"What the fuck? I didn't see that one coming."

"Ha! You think it would play out where the unicorn willingly gives up its horn for good people like in fairy tales? As if." Azazel stepped out of the bushes and towards the downed monster, "The horn has special properties to reverse spells, it's their pride and honor as unicorns. That's why a lot of them isolate themselves away from society."

"And we're gonna take its pride and honor?" I asked uncertainly, worried about the unicorn. We did come to ambush it like illegal hunters. It didn't even have the chance to fight back unlike the minotaurs.

"That's right. After that, I'll apply some medicine for its horn to grow back, it'll be good as new in no time." The fallen replied, transforming his prosthetic hand into a blade and severed the appendage.

"Oh, that's good. So what's next on the list? I'm thinking about dropping these two on a bed or something back at home if we still have lots of ingredients to get."

Issei fidgeted in Yuuma-chan's apartment, this is the first time he's in a girl's place so being nervous was expected. The fallen was a bit busy with her duties and she hadn't finished unpacking all the boxes, so he and Asia decided to help out. There isn't many left though, and all that's left is the one in the corner.

Peering through the lid, Issei felt time stopped as he saw the contents: lingerie.

Inside were undergarments for woman in different dark-themed colors, but what really attracted the perverts attention was that they're all very lacy. Straps with the bare minimum of fabric barely enough to cover the important parts. Especially the bras if you can even call them that, they're almost considered as strings.

The pervert imagined Yuuma-chan in nothing but her underwear, exposing 95% of her flawless skin and her huge oppai bouncing in every step she made. He could feel a nosebleed coming up but pinched his nose and did his best to calm down. Leaving a blood stain in someone else's apartment is very rude and completely obvious as to why it happened.

"Issei-san?"

He jumped back in shock, "Gah! A-Asia? What's up?"

"Are you okay? Your face is red, are you tired from moving the boxes?" The innocent blonde asked worryingly, oblivious to the pervert's discovery.

"N-no, I'm fine. No problem."

"Ise, Asia? Did something happen?"

The pervert could almost feel his Boosted Gear Boosting his fears when the owner of the apartment closed in on them. Her eyes shifted from her guests to the box, putting the pieces together. Issei's expression contorted into pure unadulterated horror, hoping he would survive the beating after being caught red handed at the scene of the crime.

"Raynare-san, I think Issei-san is still not feeling well after his fight."

"Is he really?" Yuuma-chan smiled, her words were slow yet clear which sent a shiver down Issei's spine, "No Asia, I think what really bothered him was what is inside that box."

That was it, Issei's gonna die and go to heaven. Oh wait, he's a devil. He's going to hell.

"Box?" Asia tilted her head in confusion.

"That's right. Asia, let me tell you something about fallen angels." Yuuma-chan's mischievous smile and glinting eyes never moved away from the Pawn, "All fallen angels have certain desires and in my case, I have these naughty thoughts."

Huh?

"Naughty thoughts?" The Bishop asked timidly, frightened by the implications, "D-do you still hurt people?"

"Yes, but not in a way that would make people sad." Pushing up her oppai with her arm seductively to give a better view, Yuuma-chan bewildered Asia and escalated Issei's carnal desires. The fact that her clothes were already generously showing cleavage was very stimulating to the pervert, "You see, when a man sees something private about a girl, he will feel pressure building up which leads to pain."

"Hm?" Asia squinted her eyes in thought, thoroughly confused how that is possible.

Too bad that Issei was the live specimen of her explanation.

"Because of these naughty thoughts," The moment Yuuma-chan unbuttoned her top, her oppai spilled out as the restraints were gone but the most important part was still covered. She fanned herself despite the minor sweating and being hardly tired. Issei had to physically clamp down his nose at the sheer volume and bounciness of her oppai. "I need to find some way to relieve myself."

Holy shit, Issei wasn't sure if he's lucky or very unlucky right now.

"Do you want me to show you Asia? It will also help Ise. Maybe I need something bigger and harder to relieve myself better. A fallen does crave for it."

Is she saying what Issei thinks she's saying!? At this rate, he's gonna get the most painful blue balls of the century!

"Or better yet, I can teach you. The three of us could do a trust building exercise."

The pervert imagined naked a Yuuma-chan and Asia. The former has her wings out and looks ready to devour him while the latter was shyly doing her best to not cover her privates. Two pairs of oppai were laid out bare, waiting to be grouped, cherished, loved-

*Thud*

"Iyah! Issei-san, are you okay?" Asia knelt down to the barely conscious Pawn, his nose erupted out blood with swirly eyes and a lecherous grin on his face. The blonde quickly used Twilight Healing to frantically stop whatever caused it.

Raynare was probably having way too much fun with this but in truth, she didn't mind Issei peeking at her underwear. Fallens do need a way to satisfy their urges, she contemplated doing a threesome for real but the Sekiryuutei did have big fight not too long ago so he must still be tired. Either that, or he's actually not that perverted. Quite a shame, Raynare needs some spice in her life.

"Daisuke-kun, what's wrong?"

I looked up towards the sky with concentrated features, "I felt a disturbance in the universe as if someone just thought of something even more impossible than my existence in this world."

"The hell are you talking about Daisuke? There's nothing more ridiculous than your existence."

"Call it a gut instinct, it has never let me down before."

"Quit talking bullshit, that's not like you. Now get in the circle." Azazel ordered me as the three of us teleported to our final destination to search for-

*Roar*

"Kyah!"

"Iyah!"

A towering red dragon made a loud noise, scaring the little ones awake and clinging onto me in fear. They were shivering at the sight of the giant fire breathing reptile glaring down at us.

"Whoops, looks like we teleported too close to the Flame Dragon. The last ingredient are the scales growing on its back."

"Don't worry Rias, Miho. I'll make sure the big bad dragon won't hurt you." I assured them, gently rocking them up and down in attempt to calm them down.

"Ria not scawared."

"Miho buwave."

Looks like they're trying to tough it out, even though their faces say they're scared shitless. Another roar echoed out and made them sob, they're gonna cry at this rate!

"This isn't good. In that case, leave it to me." Azazel snapped his fingers as a magic circle summoned a giant robot.

Wait what? Robot?

"I've been wanting to test this bad boy out. I made it in the secret underground basement beneath Kuoh Academy's pool. It's a robot powered by the hatred overflowing in the world. The environmentally friendly megazord, Maouga."

"If there's one thing I've learned from watching anime, it's that being fueled by hatred never ends well for anybody. When did you have time to make that?" I asked incredulously.

"Don't sweat the small stuff. Now go Maouga, teach that lizard to not scare small children." The scientist pointed dramatically with insanity in his eyes, "Eat this. Rocket punch!"

The mechanical hand flew out from the body towards the Flame Dragon, who evaded the metal fist as the projectile keep flying towards the horizon.

...

"Azazel, you did design the fist to come back right?"

He closed his eyes and nodded sagely, "And the hatred in the world has been purged."

"Akeno, zap him."

"Ufufu, I have been waiting to do this for a while now." The sadist fired a stream of lightning at the Governor General, only to frown in surprise and confusion as he's perfectly fine.

"Ha! You think you're the first person trying to electrocute me? I insulated my clothes so not even natural lightning would work."

The Flame Dragon bared its fangs, charging to swallow us whole.

"Stay." I activated my Tenkugan, capturing it under a genjutsu. The reptile came to a halt, his expression unfocused and in a trance. Maybe it worked because I'm kinda pissed that it scared the girls.

"Sit." It obeyed like a trained dog and placed its butt on the ground, patiently and lifelessly waiting for my next orders. I can try ordering it to eat Azazel, but he'll most probably overpower it so I'll just get what we came for, "We need scales on your back to turn our friends back to normal. Can you give some to us?"

Scratching its back with its claws, the dragon handed us half a dozen of them.

Dumping them in my storage, "Thank you."

"Ara ara Daisuke-sama, the more I see you in action, the more I cannot control myself." Akeno rubbed her thighs against each other, looking horny and really needing an outlet.

"Not in front of the children." An idea popped into my mind, "Hey, how about we go ride on the dragon and fly into the sky?"

"Yay!"

"Fly!"

"That would be delightful."

"Free joyride? I'm in."

"Not you Azazel, you get that fist back and fix whatever damage it might have caused. You'll be lucky if it didn't kill anyone."

"Tch, cheapskate." He grumbled, turning his prosthetic hand into a a screwdriver and got to work on the robot.

The rest of us climbed onto the Flame Dragon with the kids in front and Akeno behind me. My arms circled around the the two, reminding myself to reward the dragon with some minotaur meat later. The Queen hugged me closely with her head resting on my shoulder, snuggling her cheek against mine. A little uncomfortable but we took off and soared to the skies.

"Alright, it's time for 'How to Train Your Dragon' Hanwei style."

All if us gathered back at my apartment, baby Rias and baby Miho flinched at the smell of the medicine but still drank it.

"Bitter!"

"Ueh!"

Akeno activated the magic circle as a finisher. The moment they glowed, I draped bath robes on them to make sure they won't be naked the moment they revert back to normal. From under the sheets, the tiny bodies grew back into mature forms, both of them then smiled at me.

"Daisuke, thank you for turning us back to normal."

"Hanwei-sama, thank you."

"You're welcome. Now, can you tell me how the hell you two ended up as little girls?"

"It was the vixen's fault!" Miho suddenly pointed at the red head angrily, her hand clutching her robe hard, "She attempted to turn you into a child for her own greed until I intervened to thwart her."

Rias opened her mouth with an affronted expression but slowly closed it, lowering her head in remorse, "It's true. I wanted to see you as a cute child Daisuke. When I saw how happy you were looking at onii-sama's pictures of me as a child, I couldn't help myself. I'm sorry."

"Ooh, evening drama." Azazel grabbed a seat and magically summoned a bag of popcorn.

I rubbed my temples, not expecting the mature Rias to plot something like this. Then again, she keeps sneaking into my bed no matter how much I barricaded my door. On the other hand, it was me who overreacted to baby Rias' cuteness, "Rias, what you tried to do was wrong."

Her head lowered further. Asia tried to speak on her behalf, "Hanwei-san, please do not be angry at Buchou-san. When I saw Issei-san as a child in his old albums, I was very excited as well."

"Oh yeah." Issei awkwardly rubbed his head, "Asia was overjoyed."

"I would like to see that myself." Raynare added, much to Issei's embarrassment.

"But," Rias raised her gaze hopefully. "I did sorta started it. So here." Extending my hand, I made an illusion of myself as a kid in front-

"Hanwei-sama, you're so cute!"

Miho reacted before anyone else could, hugging and squealing at the illusionary clone. Huh, never seen her move so fast before.

"That's not fair, I want to hug him too!"

"Ufufu, I also want to have a turn."

A few more illusionary clones were made, appeasing the girls before a cat fight broke out. After letting them affectionately squeeze the clones for several minutes, Azazel stood up and threw his empty bag, "The ending was boring. Anyway Daisuke, I'm done with your personal request last night."

Every single hair on me bristled, he had my full undivided attention, "And..."

"No, it's not what you thought it was."

I breathed out a sigh of relief, at least I don't have to call Vali 'onii-chan'. As the illusions vanished, everyone looked at us quizzically. Rias asked, "Daisuke, is there something bothering you?"

"A minor identity crisis. I gave Azazel a portion of my magic and some blood samples to investigate something, at least that's out of the way." I eyed the Governor General who still maintained his serious visage, "There's a 'but' isn't there?"

He nodded.

...

"Are you gonna tell me what it is?" I asked nervously, the suspense was starting to kill me.

"Listen, I've never seen anything like this before. The reason why I slept in this morning was because I spent all night last night figuring out what was wrong with you. I tested everything I could think of yet nothing worked."

All of us grew tense, feeling something ominous from those words.

"Wait a moment, is Hanwei-sama ill?"

"No."

"Is it gonna have some negative effects on me?"

"It hurts me as a scientist to say this, I don't know. I'm gonna need Ajuka to take a look at him, he's the one who invented the Evil Pieces."

"Daisuke's Evil Piece?" Rias' voice was full of worry, walking to my side and held my hand, "But there's nothing wrong. It's working normally like all the others."

"That's the point." Azazel didn't have his usual carefree attitude right now and rubbed the bridge of his nose, "Until we get the expert to take a look at you and figure out what's wrong, just keep doing what you're always doing and you should be fine."

We exchanged glances, the ORC and fallens were uneasy but if it's not anything bad, I guess it's not worth worrying about, "In that case, anyone up for minotaur meat for dinner? It tastes like magic."

"Did you say minotaur meat!? Let's have a feast!"

But still, somewhere deep in my mind, I just can't stop thinking about it. If I'm not a Lucifer, then why is Vali's aura so similar to mine?

Merkarion: Does this chapter answer your questions?

byayan: Thanks, here's another.

AN: Hello everyone, here's my version of the short story 'Hell Teacher Azazel'. There was way less people voting the poll than I thought but meh, whatever. This means it is the end of Season 2 and it only took me 18 months... way longer than I thought. Next is the start of Season 3 and like I said in the previous chapter: 'big plans!' and Daisuke's identity is just the tip of the ice berg. Hope you all like it. Please leave a review and tell me what you think.
