DXD OVERLORD

Chapter 35: Kuoh Academy Part 5



FIRST DAY AT THE ACADEMY Location the Humanworld, Japan-Kuoh: Bael Residence, Krichevskoy Mansion; Laharl's Bedroom

It was a good sleep...until the damn alarm rang!! As the clock right on top of a black nightstand, shaking and ringing annoyingly right next the bed. As it was soon silenced...by being smashed, blasted, frozen, and much more by everyone awaken by it. As unfortunately, that meant one thing for them...it was time to get ready for...school. It was August, the start of the school year in a global human scale. As they grumble, and Kneesocks reached over to another nightstand to grab her glasses, yawning, as she said, "Come on guys...let get this over with." they all grunted and got out of bed. They went to the various bathrooms that are around the mansion to brush their teeth, do their hair, and put on their uniforms in a tidy manner.

They went to make a quick breakfast, before they went to Kuoh Academy. Laharl he was the first to come down, in his "uniform" which consists of his usual collar, gloves, shoes, and red jacket open, showing the white male uniform. As the girls came down next, all were wearing the iconic Kuoh uniform. With Ruby still having her scarf along with some sport-shorts underneath her red skirt, Kneesocks or Karin as her human alias state, switch her uniform but with her beige blazer, and her kneesocks the Dual Golden Spandex at the ready. Mizore only wear the red skirt and the rest of her uniform was covered up by her iconic sweatshirt. Kyoko only had a medical mask instead of her usual ninja mask, but aside from that she didn't wore her cape of the uniform. While Albedo and Cerberus just wore the uniform like normal except Cerberus have their treasured collars to differentiate which body is Kii, Mii, and Vii. As they ate, all of them felt tired already. Since these are going to be long...long years, having to restrain themselves, and watch over a territory that they didn't want, or have actually ownership just rent!!

Once they finished, and since they'd were too busy with handling strays, as Laharl forgot that DXD lore states that a large amount of stray started pooping up in Kuoh, when Rias and Sona took charge. Even if the anime never expanded upon this, apart from mention it and the Viser minor fight. To introduce the concept of strays, as Viser is a mutated centaur, that would make Melona from Queen's Blade, nod in respect of Viser boob acid. Laharl, he laughed as this out loud, gaining the girls attention, he waved it off and told them, "Now that both Sona and Rias are here, with their respected peerage. The workload will go down...(as he remembers, all the craps that awaits them in Kuoh, but he couldn't make the girls feel more stressed so he finished saying)...so let just get through this, one day at a time." they nodded happily at his words, and grabbed their school-bags. Just as they headed to the front door, and open it they were greeted by Rias, Akeno, Kiba, Sona, Tsubaki, Tomoe, Reya and Momo. That came not only to greet them, but also join them on their way to school...Laharl, he mentally sighed and he thought, "Yeah. Like the girls said. These are going to be some long...long years." as the three groups made their way to their school, Kuoh Academy.

MAKING A FIRST IMPRESSION Location the Kuoh Academy, Main Entrance

The new semester has started a lot of new years, kohai, were chatting with each other, as it was clear the gender scale was 5 to 1. As their were a bunch more girls of various haircolors, style, and measurements, allover with a very few guys, drowling and fantasing about the "Garden" paradise that was before them. Just one year ago, Kuoh Academy was a girls only school, when suddenly a message was sent out that the Academy was going co-ed!! Many guys tried to register, but a few were allowed admission to the school, which made it much more sweeter for the lucky guys that manage to get in!! That when a huge crowd was forming at the main gate, many girl gasped and were amazed at the group that has arrived. Curious the guys in the courtyard, started heading to the source of the commotion.

Arriving was a group of twelve beautiful girls. A exotic red haired beauty, a literal definition of a Yamato Nadeshiko, a beautiful yellow-eyed onee-san, and a masked cutie with a incredible body. A dark hair girl in glasses that inspired intelligence, another dark haired beauty, with different colored eyes, a charming red head in pigtails that gave off a sweet aura, and a light brown hair girl with elegant vibe to her. A white curly haired girl which stride with confidence. A yankee girl with a pair of long antennae on her head. A trio of white haired triplets with a aura that made anyone want to spoil them, and another glasses wearing body with an aura of professionalism and maturity. And lastly a girl with purplish long hair, and lollipop in her mouth, giving a cold but charming aura around herself.

Then their were two handsome guys, that were leading this large group of beauties. One blond haired boy that gave off a charming prince like vibe, when he'd passed a girl, he was greet them with charm and respect, making them gasp and melt at his sight. Then their was to the guys opinion a punk, from the way he is dressed. He was quite intimidating to the guys, but the girls were drawn to the strong, quiet majesty that passing by. All that Laharl could say mentally, "Not even the first bell. And already were drawing crowd of fangirls, and envy from the background guys." As they made their way through the courtyard, everyone respectfully made way for them. The girls gushing, admiring, and cheering for the large group of kohai, while the guys while they did the same as the girls for the new twelve ladies that have arrived, they also were directing envy and animosity to the two mystery guys in that group.

All throughout the day. Laharl and his girls, plus Rias and Sona group were the talk of the whole school. Growing in popularity without doing much of anything. The first day was just the typical presentation ceremony, and teachers introducing themselves the new students, and giving a brief overview of what's to come in their classes. Apart from that Lahar, he and his girls were starting to wish they'd skip the whole first day. Eventually the day was done, and was time to go back home, as soon as he and his girls were free from prying eyes, they sprouted their wings and went straight back home, ignoring the calls from Rias, as she wanted them all to go home together...she sighed sadly, as she left with her peerage.

CATACOMB BOSS FIGHT Location the Catacomb Dungeon Area 1

A week passed, since the first day of school. It was fine, annoying but fine. Laharl, he was reminded of his own time at school ages ago. At least he, along with the girls who were all together in class A-3. Even Kneesocks and Albedo managed to worm their way on the first year class, when they should be on second and third respectfully. They proved to the teacher than in a week they were quite gifted students, answering all questions right, finishing assignments quickly and easily, and in Ruby and Cerberus cases being considered up and coming athletes in gym class, meanwhile aside from Basketball, Laharl, he wasn't interested in his popularity or being liked by the guys...which instead increased his popularity with girls of the academy. Then came the end of the Saturday school day, and both Rias and Sona wanted to hang out, but he and the girls declined. Since they were going hunting that day, and on Sunday they'll go visit his mom. Sad but they understood, of all three of them they knew Laharl-kun was by far the busiest.

Going to the Abandoned Church, using magic to revert to their usual attire and real form, since Laharl and the girls refused to fight in their school uniform. They entered through the stone door of the oldest grave...and returned to the Catacomb Dungeon. Once again they are in the withered, and broken-down mansion, as the hunt was on. They fought and killed a large amounts of tiny bats or bit, as well as zombies and luckily some will-of-a-wisps also. Leveling up some of their strength, speed stats amongst the group, but they all managed to gather enough Orange Exp, to level up all their spirit. Feeling the power surge through their being, as their very skin and beings was empower with a greater form of resistance to magic. With this dive they'd really gathered a hull of tiny bats and zombie bones. Ruby asked him, "Babe. Now that were stronger again. Think that we'd should beat down the boss?" her mouth in toothy grin. Seeing as they'd looted everything of value of the mansion like area, and they were stronger than before, he rested his Zanbato on his shoulder like he usually does, and responded, "Yeah, let go kick it ass!!" Making Ruby and Cerberus very pumped, while the rest of the girls were also excited and serious of the challenge.

Location the Catacomb Dungeon Area 1: Boss Area; Old Private Library

Going up to the second floor of the dungeon area, taking out couple more bits and a will-of-a-wisp on the way to the final room of the mansion. A set of old, dusty, massive door stood in front of them. As they all got ready, especially Mizore who already transformed her hands into claws of ice. This is an iconic she always done in Rosario + Vampire, and being her the reserved sweet girl, she is she'd even name it simply her Ice Claw technique. Seeing them all ringing to go. Laharl, he reached the dust covered doorknobs and turned them. As the door creaked open and the nine teens enter the Boss Area of the Catacomb Dungeon.

It was huge library. Filled with the brim of dusty old books. Kyoko mentioned that she was curious of their contents. Kneesocks added that many of these books could be valuable antiques and rarities, Laharl knowing how stock-up and pretentious some devils are, these books could fetch a pretty penny. Just then as they entered deeper into the library, all the candelabra candles, scattered around various places lite up the room. And revealed the fireplace with a table in front of it, having a lantern and a jack-o-lantern on the table.

Immediately Laharl, he knew what the boss of this area is. It a Pumpkin or Jack-o-lantern fron La Pucelle: Tactics. Another monster from the makaiverse. He'd stopped the girls and turned to Mizore that was the best against this monster, since Pumpkins are mainly a fire type enemy. He told her to attack the table and everything on it, she nodded. As she turned the position of her lollipop, raised one of her ice claws up, pointing said arm at the jack-o-lantern and lantern at the table. Channeling her ice power and magic molding it into a shape, she was inspired by a certain anime ice wizard in the design of this spell and technique, that allows her to create ice made attack objects and more, this is her Ice Mold technique. As a huge chunk of spiky ball of ice manifested in the air, and with a down swipe of her arm, falling onto the table.

Sensing the cold and danger the waiting pumpkin move. Evading the chunk of spiky ice, smashed and froze the area. As a ghostly monster was floating in the air. A jack-o-lantern head alit in fire, with a rag for a robe and body. With floating gloves as hands, with a right hand has a lit lantern grasp onto said hand.

The fight was about to start. The pumpkin raised his lantern and a small fireball was shot at the peerage. They scattered, as the Cerberus Triplets charged in from three angles, using their incredible speed creating multiple after-images. This gained the Boss' attention as it attacked Cerberus, but all the "Cerberus" were after-image copies, confusing the Pumpkin, when suddenly the triplets appeared behind the Boss. And they struck with powerful uppercut from behind the Boss. This is her Hound Charge technique, as she renamed the Tiger Charge technique from fist skills on the Disgaea series. As the Pumpkin was struck, Kneesocks followed up using her newest technique against the Boss. Throwing both her scythes at the still whritting Boss, both her scythe started to spin like sawblades, manipulating her Dual Golden Spandex, to move and hit the Boss, slashing it over and over from various angles and as Kneesocks crossed her arms slicing through the Boss with two crossing saw spinning weapon, this is her Wicked Mimicking Shade technique.

The pumpkin fell onto the ground, as Ruby and Albedo rushed in. Slashing their target with their massive sword and poleaxe. Causing more damage to the monster, as it shriek and flew away from the attackers, Kyoko struck throwing magically conjured shuriken at the Boss, her Shuriken Wave soared at it. But the pumpkin managed to evaded, it was showing quite of bit of damage on its body. Shrieking in anger, as the Boss' eyeholes started to light-up in greater intensity, as it attack with lasers coming out its eyes. This is the Pumpkin Laser skill, the girls and Laharl ran away from the laserbeams.

Ruby sprouted her devil wings and flew around the pumpkin. Strapping her Infernal Sword onto her back, as she readies her attack. Channeling her demonic power to create some balls of hellish fire energy. Molding that energy onto her hands, as they started creating huge balls of destruction, crimson and orange balls of hellfire. As she smirked she yelled out, "Go to hell!!" she throws one hellfire ball, then another, then another, and another she unleashes a barrage of destructive energy balls of hellfire. Each one that hit the Boss cause massive amount of damage, and cause a fiery explosion. As Ruby devastated the Boss with her Overlord's Rampage technique.

Once she throws the final ball of hellfire at the pumpkin, it started to fall. Crashing onto the floor, unable to move any more. Barely alive, Laharl and the girls started to get closer to the basically beaten Boss. Thanks to their numbers and teamwork what should be a hard or at least challenging fight, was a walk in the park for them. Laharl, decided to end the pumpkin stabbing his Zanbato onto the pumpkin's head, taking it out. They cheered as they beat the Boss of the area, Laharl, congratulated his girl, giving a special kiss reward to Cerberus, Mizore, Kneesocks, and Ruby. Making these girls very happy. As a huge amount of Red, Orange, and Purple Exp appeared on the Boss body, as they absorbed the powerful and large amounts of exp-drops they became quite stronger.

Laharl, he stored away his sword and the Pumpkin's body to sell later. As a blue and white ring that is the waypoint manifested inside of the fireplace of all places. Laharl, he thought it must be a secret path to the next area of the Catacomb Dungeon. Before leaving Laharl, he told the girls to gather as many books and candelabras in the room. Taking advantage of the easy profit, apart from that this hunt was over...
