Chapter 55: Black Dragon Part 5
TALKING WITH RIAS Location the Humanworld, Japan-Kuoh: Kuoh Academy, Occult Research Club Building
Another day, Laharl and the girls were eating lunch in the cafeteria. Another peaceful but boring day at this school. Nero was having fun, having gain as a equal level of fame and fanbase as her sisters amongst the student populace. As Nero was eating Roman food, from supplì, panino con porchetta, and trapizzino. She "Umu" and had the utter face of joy eating her country food. Laharl, he smiled and petted her on the head, making her happy and blush a bit. This sight made her sister, smile and laugh a bit, as their lunch was going good...when Akeno came to their table. She'd pardon herself, and requested that Laharl-kun accompanied her to the Occult Research Club Building. Which means that Rias wanted to talk, and was to lazy to personally come over to talk to him. He sighed and ate his egg-sandwish or tamago sando, wishing his girls a good meal and getting up from his seat.
During their walk, many students started gossiping, that Akeno was with him, and probably together. Making the half-fallen angel, blush happily but stayed in her dignified manner, while Laharl didn't care, he'll admit he'd preferred Akeno over Rias...as long as she can control her fetishis. They eventually reached the old school building that not only has a hard dungeon entrance, somewhere in the vicinity, and also houses the infamous Occult Research Club. Akeno guided her through the rundown building, that looks like something straight out of a Japanese horror game or anime. After a couple of minutes, they'd arrived in the club room, looking exactly like in DXD...along with a familiar scene happening in front of his face. A velvet curtain was in front of him, with the sound of running water, and if focused he could see the silhouette of a showering Rias...seems that her slight exhibition fetish was starting to emerge, meaning soon she'll start her basically nudish lifestyle. He sighed as he walked passed the makeshift shower, and sat down on the green couch. Waiting for her to finish her shower, as Akeno came over and offered him a cup of green tea. He gratuitously accepted, as he heard Rias, "Are you enjoying the little show, Laharl-kun?" not being embarrassed about a low-level tease. Laharl, he said in confidence, "yes" and that she's beautiful.
Making Rias very happy and asked Akeno to hand her a towel. Wrapped around towel on herself, as she sat down. Rias was then given her own cup of tea by her queen. She started a pleasant conversation with Laharl-kun, typical her wasting time before going into the main issue of any matter. She'd talked about how things were going with her, difficulties finding any other worthy recruits for her peerage, studying and doing good in class, and even stating that she's been getting stronger every day...that last comment almost made Laharl, bust a gut, since while stronger than in the start of the story. Rias, she was slacking a bit. The only ones that are growing stronger are Kiba, Koneko with her private tutoring in the nekomata settlement, and Akeno who has been seeking more advice on magic. But Rias pride finally started to bite her in her hot, shapely ass. He stayed quiet, as he finished his tea, thanking Akeno for the tea. Making the S&M instantiate, very happy, as Rias also finished her drink, both kings placed their cups on the table. As finally Rias got to the point to her calling for this little chat, which is to talk about their date, making her very happy and excited...while Laharl, groaned. As he laughed a bit, and they started making plans...which mainly involved visiting Akihabara...once again typical, Rias.
BONDING WITH SONA Location the Kuoh Academy, Class A-1
It's been a day since Laharl-kun spoke to Rias. Right now, Sona and her peerage were in their class of A-1. Ever since she has finally confessed to Laharl-kun, Sona she has felt soo happy. And Tsubaki, Tomoe, Reya, Momo, and Tsubasa were soo happy for her, as Sona has been giving a aura tranquility and of a maiden in love. Preparing for her future date, Tsubaki and the girls have taken her to the shopping mall to buy her some clothes for the future date...plus some special, "equipment" for what comes after some dates. As the bell rung, a certain red-hoodie jacket wearing young man came through the classroom. All the girls and boys of the class were shocked that the infamous Dark King of Kuoh, came to their classroom.
Since Laharl, he didn't want to with annoying gossiping teens. So he used his devil magic, to subtlely make every human student in the class leave. Leaving only him, Sona, and her peerage. She was very happy, and called him Laharl-kun, answering her call, as she wants to talk about to things. As they conversed about school, along with her making some progress with recruiting, Ruruko, Murayama, and Katase their bonding with them, and soon she'll ask them to join her peerage. She has been taking Laharl's advice and improving her commanding skills, and her magic she even managed to master the spell he told her about called Diamond Dust, were she freezes everything while still forming a connection with all frozen target, to cause a icy explosion afterwards. When she showed this to her sister and mother they were very impressed, and Sona blushed...as she told him that she'd did mention that they'll stat dating soon. Laharl, he shuke his head since that means, that he'd should be expecting a visit from Big Sister mode Levi-Chan soon. All in all it was a good atmosphere and mood between them, which made things more excited for Tsubaki and the other girls of Sitri peerage. Since they looked like a cute couple, as Laharl then suggested that if she couldn't come up with a with a club cover with a headquarter, while doesn't she run for Academy Council President. This made her think, and she was very grateful for the suggestion. Then they changed the subject, as Laharl asked her what kind of date, she'd wanted, as Rias...she wanted a stereotypical date, a wondering in the mall, watch a movie, and usual teen crap.
This made Sona very happy that Laharl really wants to make their date special. She has heard about the amazing dates, he gave and went his other girls, and she too wanted something special...but she wanted it to be a surprise. Which Laharl-kun completely understood, Tsubasa had to place her hand over Tomoe's mouth so she wouldn't shriek out loud, thus ruining the mood...and show. At the end, he invited her to lunch with the rest of the girls, which Sona graciously accepted. Once Laharl and Sona left the classroom, that show made them gush and shriek like girls on a boyband concert. Again they were soo happy and glad that their king, and dear friend, finally caught her man, but now they have to make sure that, that future date goes perfect. Sona needs a big moment, plus secretly Lady Sitri has instructed them to record everything between her daughter and her boyfriend to be.
THE WHITE EMPEROR Location the Underworld, Fallen Angel Territory: Grigori Headquarters, Training Room
At the Underworld. In a far off corner of the devil realm, lies the territory of the Fallen Angel, or as many call this faction the Grigori. Currently the thousands of fallen angels, were living securely. Thanks to a deal with the Satan Lucifer, the Grigori were able to live on a area of their own. But still things are rough and tense for the fallen angels, as they have many, many races who despise them, and are seeking for any excuse to attack them. Thanks to the work of their leaders, Azazel, Baraqiel, Shemhazai, Benemune and Kokabiel that they still stand and have some semblance of peace. Even if one of these fallen is utterly against peace. Right now a non-fallen member of the faction, was training in the underground training bunker of the fallen. A white spiky hair, young man, shirtless and covered in sweat. As this half-devil was punching and kicking a special reinforced pillar, increasing his power and strength.
His name is Vali Lucifer. The half-blood descendant of the original Lucifer. Along with being the descendant of the first devil, he was this generation White Dragon Emperor, host of the longinus sacred gear, Divine Dividing, that holds the soul of Albion the Vanishing Dragon. It been quite a while since he and Azazel have seen the fight between some punk that Vali didn't have any consideration towards, and the young man name Laharl Krichevskoy Bael. As he threw another punch, coated in demonic and draconian energies causing a indentation into the pillar. He felt his blood boil at the thought of no only the power, and strength of Laharl. But also the memory of Albion telling him that this devil, a pure-blood devil, might be a future Dragon Emperor like himself and the future Red Emperor. The possibility of facing this new dragon in a fight, makes him excited. Especially someone strong enough to not only gain his partner recognition, but also change the landscape of the Underworld in one attack. His own attack, as his new rival sacred gear, Vritra Zanbato, has just awakened. He was eager to see what that sword is capable of, and by fighting this new dragon host, he can get ready for when the red one finally awakens!!
Albion shared the same thought as his partner and host Vali. It's been ages, and in those countless years there hasn't been someone worth of his notice, apart from Ddraig. From what he sensed and saw through Vali in that fight sometime ago. This was a dragon, capable of devouring everything and merge with that punk dragon king, Vritra, to become something greater. What truly shocked the Vanishing Dragon, was that Vritra willingly allowed himself to be devoured, and become apart of whoever that eight-headed dragon that originally made that sword. The power to devour and envelope, against the supremacy of dividing. Apart from Ddraig who was the only one that fearlessly challenged him, despite his power and poison, whoever this new Heavenly Dragon in the making is...they'll prove a great challenge, and he believes that Ddraig will agree when they also meet. As Vali strikes the pillar again, he was anxious to finally face another worthy rival.
THOUGHTS OF AZAZEL Location the Grigori Headquarters, Azazel's Private Lab
Azazel the Head Cadre and leader of the Grigori. Was in a white lab coat, over his usual red one. As he was spending intensive time checking data on the new sacred gear that has emerged. A new one, under the nose of Heaven and Michael, and without the aid of dear old dad. All data recorded from the several battles that Laharl has won in the Rating Game, along with Michael mentioning that who was supposed to have the Absorption Line, was killed soon after he or she activated it. Were quite alarming, checking the time that, that individual died, was also the same time that the Blaze Black Flare banished from his lab. He tested the other pieces of Vritra, the Delete Field and the Shadow Prison Promotion. And he discovered their weaker than before, and the draconian aura that they once possess was slowly fading away, day by day. Whatever and however this new sacred gear, Vritra Zanbato is it was slowly consuming the essence of Vritra off the previous sacred gears that were created from the Prison Dragon.
He was very excited to learn more about this young man, and his sacred gear. He'd plans to soon in a couple years sent some fallen low levels to oversee Kuoh, and maybe recruit any other sacred gear users that might emerge from that area. Plus as he look over to a video screen in his lab, showing Vali training harder than ever. The coming of a new dragon, has gotten both Vali and Albion very excited... He might have to sent Vali to meet this Laharl in person, with some conditions to meet the young devil. Apart from that he has to make some effort to establish peace negotiations with Serafall and Sirzechs. So he shrugged and went back to his research, his passion and hobby...when he heard the head secretary of the Grigori, Benemune, was calling to him. Banging on the door, trying to get him to work on boring paperwork. All he could do is...stay quiet and hope Benemune-chan leaves, until he heard, "Azazel if you don't come out right now...I'll tell Baraqiel, to come here." Baraqiel is always a diligent worker, and tough man is one of the few people, that can force him to do things...and he sighed sadly, and said, "I'm coming Benemune..." putting down all his reports. And went to the door, and to deal with work...sometimes he really hated being the leader...
