Chapter 14. Sending a Message

Silence........ absolute...... silence.

No words were said....no sounds were made. It was so deathly silent that not even the regular sounds such as wind or insects or anything to that matter could be heard. Just about almost everyone watching the fight between Issei and Y/N were all silent with mixed emotions as they all merely stared at Y/N who still had a big ol smile on his face. Nobody even responded to his statement/question of him winning. They all just couldn't believe that The Red Dragon Emperor was EASILY defeated. For Y/N it seemed to be a Flawless Victory. All while this happened, those in the crowd had different thoughts going through their minds.

Sirzechs's Mind: H-How.....how could this boy have so much power..... How is he this Strong?!.... How many push-ups did he do?!... How many sit ups!?!... WHAT KIND OF JUICE DID HE DRINK?!?!?!?!

Grayfia's Mind: Incredible...

Azazel's Mind: I wonder if the latest edition of Sports illustrated Waifus is out?

Koneko's Mind: Wow, I never knew Y/N was THIS strong.

Akeno's Mind: I sooo want him to choke me like he hates me when he loves me~!

Rias's Mind: No.... Issei.

Ravel's Mind: I wish that bastard *referring to Issei* all the pain and suffering that's happening to him!

Meanwhile!

A frightened and shivering Issei was now in a dark room, he didn't know what was going on or what he should do, but after everything that had happen to him so far, he thought staying and standing still was his option..... then he heard this...

https://youtu.be/SzczuQTJA8M

A/N: Only the legends will know....

Outside of the room was Josh who was listening to more of Issei's blood curtailing screams.

Josh: *sighs in relief* Ah music, sweet sweet music. Huh....I wonder if left him the shotgun....oh well~! *suddenly holding maracas while limbo dancing* I am Evil Josh, I am Evil Josh, I am Evil Josh, I am Evil Josh...

Back with Y/N

Nearly everyone (minus Y/N and his peerage) was baffled at Y/N's performance and the outcome. Now most of them were wondering what was going to happen since now, Y/N was the victor. What would happen to Rias?, What would Y/N do with Rias and her peerage?, What would Y/N-

Their train of thought was suddenly interrupted when a giant black smoke cloud appeared above Y/N from almost out of nowhere. As it started to expand, it became so large that it started to form in the shape of a giant screen. Thunder then started to miraculously flicker from within and somehow looked as if the giant clouded screen was turned on. With it now appearing on, the audience saw what looked like a dark hooded figure with looked to appear a glowing red eyed skeleton mask on the storm screen.

A/N: Just the figure, minus the gun

As the figure appeared, everyone was now even more tensed and frantic than from before. More questions were forming and yet none of them had any answers. Yet they might just get them as the ominous figure started to speak.

???: *in a deep, dark voice* Current Residents of the Underworld... Fallen Angels... Angels of Heaven Most High... and all of you Putrid Devils.... Heed my call. The time of reckoning is almost upon you. What sins, travesties, and unspokens you've all committed shall come to the light and you shall be judged. 

As the audience were listening to the masked figure, they were becoming worried. And their worries grew as the figure continued on.

???Listen Now!!... As your first Lesson... has already begun.... Back when the human race was just beginning and villages were starting all over the Earth, the Devils came and waited for them to have their guard down. Then and only then did they pounce like wicked Hyenas and begin to massacre most while taking the rest as slaves and prisoners and claiming their land and all that they owned.

As the figure spoke, lightning started to flicker in the storm cloud to where the screen changed and replaced the figure with images. On these images were old school art drawn photos of the devils killing and torturing humans. And sadly, it wasn't just the men... for there were women and children slaughtered as well. Those that weren't devils, and even some of the devils that didn't know about this were horribly surprised and even some couldn't or didn't want to believe that it was happening. More lightning then flickered, to where the figure once again reappeared.

???: Less than twenty-four hours ago, many of the High Classed Devil's homes were attacked.

As the figure said this, different images of burning castles or mansions were shown with what looked like guards, butlers, and other male corpses all around with many of those homes belonging to high powerful Devils. One in particular was the Gremory home.

???: *appears again* I-I-I did that. Many quaint homes filled with staff and children of course... The parents, soldiers, and Maous were out "Celebrating".... "The Braves".... were away.

As the figure gave that statement, all of the Devils were shocked at the display they were witnessing. Not only that, but many of whose homes were nearly destroyed or attacked were in a state of Fear and Panic. The one feeling the most of this was none other than Sirzechs. Their fears only grew as once again the figure continued on.

???: From these homes, many valuables were taken. Gold, Jewels, Weaponry, Armor, and many more, now gone. Of course, no other greater valuable was taken.... than the young future heirs of the Devil Society.

As the figure said this, the storm cloud expanded to where the screen grew and from where the figure was standing, it zoomed out to show it standing in a large dark room with only a few low-lit lights around him. Yet also around him were many little kid sized chairs and on them were children with burlap sacks over their heads. The figure then went to one of these kids and took of their sack to show to the audience watching that the child was none other than-

Sirzechs: *stands up with eyes wide and shouts in fear* Milicas!!

Milicas Gremory. The young boy was shown still in his pajamas, with red puffy eyes since the boy had been crying for a while. He was shaking and quivering in fear while he had duct tape over his mouth. The figure then gently and slowly took off the tape.

???: What's your name child?

Milicas: *in a quiet fearful voice* M-M-Milicas.... Milicas G-Grem-mory. P-Please...I want to go home.

As the scared boy said this, more tears began to form and slowly run down his face. This made many feel sadness as they could only watch the boy's torment. The figure then looked from Milicas, to back to the screen as he continued.

???: Young Milicas Gremory, was not the only child taken as many of you can see. Many future heirs and heiresses were left alone with no one there to protect them. When I found them, left and abandoned I figured that since they weren't of any importance to their parent's then that they held no true value to them. And since to many parents, that children can be nothing more than a chore of raising, that I'd take it upon myself to help...... DISPOSE OF THEM.

As those last three words left the figure's covered mouth, many uproars and cries came out from many of the devils. Mothers were weeping in anguish all while begging for it not to happen, while fathers were shouting in anger and threatening the figure... yet all their cries and pleas fell on deaf ears as the figure couldn't hear them as he put the tape back on Milicas's mouth and the sack back on his head.

???: Of course, I COULD do this all by myself, but that would take too long. So, I've enlisted some help from my friends from the other side...

As these "friends" started to appear from out of the shadows, surrounding the other children, the audience was mortified. The reason being was that those "friends" looked anything but friendly.... actually, they were the opposite of friendly... they were unfriendly.


A/N: Imagine Pyramid Head, Nomu, and Killer croc were there as well.

As the audience saw all of them coming out near the kids, they feared for what was going to happen next.

???: *looking towards the audience* Now, I'm sure you all know about what's to happen next... but this can actually all be stopped... all of these children can be spared... for why should the children be judged and pay for the sins of the parents...all that needs to be done is that in the next minute, Lord Sirzechs, High Ruler of The Devil Faction, must answer my call and give an answer. And that minute.... starts now.

Suddenly a pie chart clock appeared on the storm screen and began to count down from a minute. As that went on, nearly all the Devils present, plus the others all looked towards Sirzechs. Sirzechs himself looked around and saw all the faces of everyone. There were faces of fear, desperation, panic, and other emotions to where he couldn't even understand on how he was supposed to get into contact with-

Riinng... Riiinng!

As Sirzechs quickly patted his pockets, he found that he somehow had a black burner cellphone in there. Quickly pulling it out, he saw that it was an unknown number calling. Knowing this must be the figure on the screen, he quickly looked and saw that there was only ten seconds left. Quickly pressing the accept button, he answered.

???: *holds up a cellphone* So, you decided to answer after all... funny how a so-called high superior answered to an unknown commoner.

Sirzechs: *ignoring that* What... do you want?

???: Nothing much "your highness" just an answer. An answer... to a choice.

Sirzechs: What is it? Whatever it is I'll answer it, just don't hurt my son!

???: Funny, you're only begging for the life of YOUR child, and not of the ones of the people you're supposed to protect, lead and rule over... but seeing as you don't care any of them, let's move on. The answer to the choice you must make is a simple one....Life or Death?

Sirzechs: W-What?

???: If that's your final answer then I'll take that as DEATH.

Sirzechs: Wait!! I don't understand the question!

???: I don't know how much obvious I have to be for a so-called Ruler to grasp this. The question is Life or Death. By choosing Life, then you will spare the lives of not just your child, but all the others here as well...but if you choose Death.... well it's pretty obvious on what happens.

Sirzechs: I-Is that it? Surely you can't be that obvious?

???: Sometimes the most problematic situations can easily be dealt with simple solutions. In your case, all you have to do to choose is give me an answer...but not the typical one to choose. For you see as someone well known once said, "for every action, there is also an opposite reaction". In your case "Lord" Sirzechs, if you choose Life, then by doing so you must give it all up. Give up your power, Give up your throne, Give up your title as Lucifer and ruler of the Underworld... but if you choose Death, then you make keep it all... in exchange for your son's life and all the lives of the children here.....That is your choice... Life... or.... Death...........what is your answer?

Now...he was terrified. Sirzechs Lucifer was for once in his long reign.... was genuinely terrified. In mere moments he went from rejoicing to having his sister being freed from her marriage contract, to having it hang in the balance and lost to the one he had hired to train his sister and her peerage, to shocked when he witnessed the death of the Red Dragon Emperor, to now utterly petrified because some madman was now holding him by the balls by taking and holding his only son hostage...and the only way to get his son back, was to give up everything that he had worked for...

It must have been minutes that Sirzechs was thinking on his choice, yet what he didn't notice... or possibly tried to ignore were all of the devils trying to tell him to choose Life, his fellow comrades (including Josh who had quietly snuck back in when the audience started screaming and shouting) who were telling him to choose LIFE, or even his own Mother, and wife, and even his  sister telling him to choose LIFE....and yet, once again the figure spoke.

???: So, that is your answer.

Sirzechs: What?! But I haven't said anything!

???: And with your silence, you said enough. I've given you more than enough time to answer... and with your actions alone...you have made your choice............and that is DEATH.

Sirzechs: NO!!!

???: It doesn't take but nothing more than a mere moment to answer.... So, Congratulations Sirzechs Lucifer. You have chosen to stay in power. This could have all ended here...but with your choice you shall have many lessons brought onto you and when I finally see you face to face be it your lifeless corpse or your puny self in battle...then and only then will you know the actions that you have caused.

Sirzechs: Don't do this! If you do then-

???: Then what?! What are YOU going to do about this right now?!?!...

Sirzechs:..........

???: Exactly....Nothing. That is why... The work is done...I've won...and what I'm about to do next...I'm going to enjoy it... very very much. You have no idea of what you have done here today...but you will.... YOU WILL......because from now on...all of your actions will be paid back full...in blood... starting with your son's.

Click!

With that the figure hung up on Sirzechs. It then showed on the screen that it incinerated the phone in blue flames turning it into nothing but ash. It then made its way right behind Milicas. From there, the figure once again spoke.

???: Heed this as a warning Devils and others seeing this. With the ruler of The Devil Faction giving his answer, this will not be the only lesson to come. The Big One is coming...very soon. And for all of those wondering Who I am, my answer to you is this.... You know who I am....You don't know where I am.......................And you'll never see me coming.

As they heard the figure speak once again, everyone in the arena dreaded on what was about to happen next. Yet it seemed that the figure wasn't done and had one last thing to say.

???: Now, if you excuse me......I've got some children I need to make into Corpses!

And... with that.... the figure gave the signal to kill the lights....as it and its "friends" killed the children.... leaving the screen going so even though they couldn't see.... they could still hear the tearing of flesh, the splattering of blood, and the painful agonizing screams of innocent children.

A/N: And that's the end of the chapter.
