Chapter 7: (Fuck A) Silver Lining


(Y/N)'s POV

After school, Issei and I had gathered Saji along with Koneko who was holding onto my shirt at park. Saji looked at Issei with an irritated expression on his face.

"And?" He asked with his arms crossed. "What was the reason for calling me?"

"...He's right." Koneko looked at us with a curious expression even in her monotone voice. "What were you two trying to do?"

"Issei's going to ask Iri-chan, Xenovia and Yuki to give us permission to destroy the Holy Sword Excaliburs." I bluntly told them as both of them Saji and Koneko looked at us with a shocked expression on their face.

"Noooooooooo!" Saji started shaking his head really fast and took off running. "I'm going home."

"I knew this going to happen." I snapped my finger, using my power to levitate Saji into the air. He turned his head towards me, kicking and screaming with a horrified expression on his face.

"Hyoudou! Why me?" He asked. "It's your group's problem, right?! I belong to the House of Sitri! I shouldn't take part in this! Not at all!"

"Don't say that, Saji." I smiled at him. "The only Devil that I know who seems willing to help us is you!"

"Bullshit! There's no way that I will help you! I'm going to get killed! I'm going to get killed by president!"

"Oh, come on." I gave him a reassuring smile. "She isn't going to kill you."

"Shut up! You're an independent person so you don't know what kind of situation I'm in. Plus, president has a soft spot for you. And Issei, your master, Rias-senpai, might be strict and kind! But you know what! You know president!? She's strict AND strict!"

"It's either her or me." I gave him a creepy laugh while a sadistic grins plastered on my face.

"...Okay..." He whimpered in fear as Bill gave me a thumbs up.

Third Person's POV

"How come they got to do the best stuff while we stuck in search mission?" Kokichi shouted in frustration the group of Yusuke, Dipper and Tyrion who forced to help them into a search mission for the missing Excalibur. Currently, they were at the abandoned Church with Yusuke looking around the interior, Dipper flipping his pages of his book and Tyrion lifting the heavy stuff.

"Shut you trap, kid." Tyrion growled as he lifted a bench before throwing it away.

"Well, this is dead end..." Yusuke sighed in despair. "It's look like the unknown Excalibur Deity wasn't here..."

"Or it just some kid imagination..."

"I couldn't be wrong am I?" Dipper tapped the pen on his forehead. "It's gotta to be here somewhere."

"Beat it, Dip..." Kokichi looked at him. "This Excalibur thing doesn't exist at all-"

Yusuke signalled the rest to quiet down as he put his index finger on his lips. He urged them to hide behind a wall as they heard some footstep walking pass them.

"What do you mean we can't pull the sword out of the stone, old man?" A familiar psychotic sound complained.

"Unfortunately, we can't even get near to the said item." Another voice indicating an old man sighed, feeling disappointed as he didn't get to study the weapon. "It's like...something protecting it for some reason."

"What in the fuck is this bullshit?! If you guys can't pull it, let me do it instead!"

"You've tried for at least twelve times and still failed to do so."

"FUCK IT!"

"But don't worry. The plan still progressing as usual with all the three Excalibur in our hands." The old man chuckled as they got began to distancing themselves away from them.

The four teenage boy got out from their hiding spot as they looked at each other with a same set of plan. All of them nodded their head as they walked out of the room before making their way down to secret area. They arrived at their destination which was dark cave-like room with a little of a sunlight coming through the broken wall. In the middle of the said room was the Unholy Sword itself as it radiates dark aura even if it plunged into the single stone with light shone above it.

"What do you know...It does exist." Kokichi stated, feeling awed by the sight before Yusuke made his way towards it. "Hey, Yusuke. What are you doing?" He whispered, nearly screamed at the nephilim.

"This is truly a magnificent masterpiece." Yusuke implied as his eyes filled with interest. "I couldn't imagine that this piece of art been turned into a piece of destruction...The sword is full of...hatred, agony...pain of its previous owner..." His hand slowly reached for the sword before being pushed away by a dark energy as a round purple barrier appeared out of nowhere.

"Yusuke!" Dipper rushed towards the downed swordsman. He lifted him up a bit as the raven-haired male gritted his teeth in pain while holding his chest. "Are you alright?"

"He just got Fus-Ro-Dah by a freakin' sword!" Kokichi exclaimed.

Tyrion clicked his tongue in annoyance. "What? Does the sword choose the worthy one just like its original?"

"I guess so..." Dipper gulped as he looked at the malicious sword.

"That bullshit..."

"Than what are you planning to do then?"

"WE SMASH THE BARRIER WITH STRENGTH!" He charged forward without ever thinking a second before being pushed by the same aura and flew away towards the unfortunate trio. They all cringed in pain with Tyrion's weight on top of them.

"Get off me!" Yusuke cringed, trying to push of the other two guys on top of him.

"...Help...Lack...of....air..." Kokichi gasped loudly.

"Not everything can be solve with strength, you idiot!"

"Shut it, half-devil!" Tyrion stood up slowly followed by Dipper who texted (Y/N) about their whereabouts and the progress of the mission. "We going to be here a long time..."

(Y/N)'s POV

Minutes later, the five of us including Bill started walking into the town trying to find the three Exorcists. I got the feeling the one of those idiots that currently searching for Excalibur Deity rammed his head forward to the obstacle and failed miserably.

"They should be around here somewhere..." I muttered, using my Clairvoyance to find those Exorcists.

"For a bunch of girls wearing white, they are really hard to find at this colorful place." Bill complained, turning his side-to-side.

"Hey, Koneko-chan." I looked towards Koneko with an interested expression on my face. "You know that Kiba is a victim of the Holy Sword Project and also harbors a grudge towards Excalibur, right?" She nods her head in response. "And do you remember what they said, 'The Church decided that it would be better to eliminate all of the Excaliburs rather than letting them be used by the Fallen Angels. Our minimum objective is to get the Excaliburs away from the Fallen Angels.' So in other words, they have to destroy the stolen Excaliburs or retrieve them, right?"

"...Yes." She replied stoically. "That's right."

"That's why both (Y/N) and I thought we could help them retrieve those." Issei explained. "By making Kiba the main person. Three swords were stolen, so they won't mind if we retrieve or break one of them."

"...You want Yuuto-senpai to overcome Excalibur and to fulfill his wish, right?"

Issei nodded his head in agreement. "Kiba wants to win against Excalibur and accomplish his and his former comrades' revenge."

"Xenovia, Iri-chan and Yuki want to retrieve the Excaliburs from the Fallen Angels even if they have to destroy them." I said while using my Clairvoyance to search for them. "We have the same aim then. What's left is to see if those three will listen to words of us Devils."

"But mostly Maid Demon."

"Shut it, Oppai Dragon Emperor!"

"...It seems hard." Koneko commented as she stare at us.

"Don't worry, I can probably convince them." I gave a reassuring smile before turned my head around with an irritated expression on my face. "Also, Saji stop trying to run away and I'll let you go, wimpy boy. Quit your bitchin'."

"Let me run now!" Saji glared at me as I was dragging him along with us. "That's the worst! I'd get killed by president if I do something like destroying without her permission! She will definitely torture me!"

"Oh, she's not going to torture you. Punish probably, but not torture."

"That doesn't make me feel any better!"

"There they are..." I pointed at the alley as they all looked at where I was pointing and saw three Exorcists wearing their Exorcists robes and begging for money.

"Please give blessings to the lost lamb." Yuki pleaded with a little tears on her eyes.

"Please give charity to us on behalf of the father in heaven!" Irina begged.

"Please give us blessings." Xenovia said, feeling ashamed.

"Now that just pathetic..." Bill commented. All five of us giving them a deadpanned looks as people were giving them odd looks.

"How can this be?" Xenovia complained, getting frustrated. "This is the reality of the developed country of Japan? That's why I don't like countries that don't have the smell of our beliefs."

"Don't say that, Xenovia." Irina looked at her blue haired friend. "We lost all the money we had. So we have to rely on charity from these Heretics or else we can't get food, you know? Aaah, we can't even buy a single loaf of bread!"

"Iri-chan, I don't think it's nice to call people Heretics." Yuki said before holding her stomach with tears on her eyes. "But I am getting hungry..."

"Hmph." Xenovia pointed at a fake looking painting with the saint on it, which was painted horribly that I think Yusuke will cut it down in a second. "It all happened because you brought that fake looking paint!"

"What are you saying?!" Irina gasped in shock. "This painting has the drawing of someone who looks like a saint! That's what the person in the exhibition said as well!"

"Then do you know who the person in the drawing is?" I certainly don't."

Irina started looking at the painting wearing foreign clothing with baby angels in the background with trumpets who were floating in the air. "...I think it's...Saint...Peter...?" She guessed, feeling unsure about her answer.

"Don't mess around. Saint Petter wouldn't look like this!"

"No, he must have looked like this! I'm sure about it!"

"Aaah, why did my partner have to be someone like you..." Xenovia complained. "God, is this also a trial?"

"Shut up! That's why the Protestants are called heretics!" Irina cried out. "You guys have different beliefs than us Catholics! Show more respects to the saints."

"Guys, please don't cause a scene..." Yuki pleaded as she clasped her hand. "God, please send someone to guide us..."

Issei looked towards them with a confused expression on his face, he then turned his head and noticed that I wasn't standing next to them anymore. In fact, I made my way towards the Exorcists. "How many time do I have to help you, Iri-chan?" I called out with a smile on my face.

"..." The Exorcist Trio stared at me with a blush on their face. I take the initiative to chop their head with my hand as they cried out in pain. "Ouch!"

"Stop staring at me. It's creepy."

[Timeskip]

Later on, we decided to go to a family restaurant to let the three of them eat before talking with Issei and me splitting the bill...okay, I paid most of them...LOOK AT THE PILES OF PLATES ON THE TABLES! This girls keep on eating food like it was nothing, especially Yuki!

"Delicious! Japanese cuisine is delicious!" Xenovia compliment, filling her mouth with another portion of food.

"Don't talk when you're eating..." I advised, giving a deadpanned look towards them.

"Yes, yes!" Irina cheered. "This is it! This is the taste of the food of my homeland!"

"Thanks for treating us, (Y/N)!" Yuki thanked me, putting down an empty bowl on top of another pile.

"All my saving..." I cried out while Issei patted my back in sympathy. Once the three of them were finished they sighed out of relief in union while I got out of my depressing dilemma with a cup of tea in my hand.

"Phew, now I'm calm." Xenovia said, clearing her throat. "It's the end of the world to get helped by a Devil."

"Be thankful. I could leave you starving out in the road if I want to."

"Thank you for the meal." Yuki thanked me once more, bowed her head a little.

"Pheeeew! Thank you for them meal." Irina smiled before holding up a cross. "Aaaah God, please give charity to these Devils." At the moment all of us Devils got a headache from her prayer. "Ah, I'm sorry. I did it without thinking."

"So, why did you come to us?" Xenovia asked with her original serious tone.

Issei then cleared his throat before speaking to the three Exorcists. "I want to help you destroy the Excaliburs."

As expected, the three Exorcists looked at them with a surprised expression on their face, before Xenovia responded. "Yeah. Maybe it's okay leaving one sword to you guys. If you can destroy it, that is. But make sure that your identities aren't revealed. We also don't want our high-ups and enemies to think that we are connected to you guys."

"Why are you feeling unconfident of us dealing with the Excalibur?" I frowned at the bluenette girl.

"Actually (Y/N), Xeno-chan was planning on asking you for the help later on today, but an extra help wouldn't hurt." Yuki told us, looking towards me with a smile.

"Oh, really?"

"(Y/N), to tell you the truth, it would be really tough to retrieve the three Excaliburs and to battle Kokabiel with only the three of us Exorcists."

"Apparently, you finally realize that it's suicide mission in the first place." I smirked. "And what do you know, we planning on creating a squad!"

"Please don't tell me you made a reference to the Suicide Squad..." Issei pinched his head in annoyance. "If you do, I better not be Captain Boomerang..."

"That Saji."

"Hey!" Saji felt a bit insulted as he glares at us. "I'm not useless!"

"Shut it..." Koneko commented stoically.

"Are you done?" Xenovia asked, getting a bit irritated before continuing. "The minimum objectives we have to achieve are destroying the three Excaliburs or take them back. If our Excaliburs are going to be stolen as well, then we should break them before it happens. Even if we use the last resort, there's only a 30 percent chance that we will succeed in our mission and return home safely."

"Even so, we thought that the success rate was high enough to come to this country prepared to put our life on the line." Irina told us. "Besides, they never said that we couldn't borrow the power of a Dragon."

"What about me? A lump of rotten liver lying on the cold floor?" I deadpanned.

"Okay!" Issei interjected. "The negotiation is a success. We will lend you guys Dragon's power and (Y/N)'s nightmarish power. Then can I call my partner for this cooperation, then?"

"Who died and make you the leader?"

"Hey, stop being antagonist with everyone-"

"Suck a cock! I'm (Y/N) Freaking Hyoudou! I do whatever I want!" We both starts to bickers with Koneko sighed in frustration before pulling out her cellphone and called Kiba who arrived minutes later, and sitting down contemplating what we just told them...also ignoring the fact that I'm head-locking Issei with my arm around his neck.

"...I understand the situation." Kiba looked down and started taking a sip of coffee, before speaking again. "To tell the truth, I feel unsatisfied when the wielders of the Excaliburs are giving me the permission to destroy it."

"That's a rough way to speak." Xenovia said, shooting a glare towards the Knight. "If you were a Stray-Devil, I would have cut you down without any time to spare even if you're Yuki's brother." Both of them started glaring at each other, while releasing killing intent.

"Big brother." Yuki said in worry as Kiba looked away with a distraught expression on his face.

"So, you do hold a grudge regarding the Holy Sword Project. Against the church and the Excaliburs." Irina questioned.

Kiba sharpened his eyes at at Irina. "Obviously."

"But Kiba-kun. Thanks to that project, the research on holy-sword users showed results. That's why it created people like Xenovia and I who can synchronize with the holy swords."

"Do you think its forgiving act to kill all the test subject because the project was thought to be a failure and taking my little sister?" Kiba started leaking out killing intent from his body. "That incident also became one of the worst cases among us and people felt disgusted about it. The person in charge of that project at that time was said to have a problem with his belief. So, he was charged with heresy. Now, he's one of those people on the Fallen Angel's side."

"What's the name of that person?" I asked, looking at the blonde haired Knight.

"I found out his name after being moved from the Holy Sword Project facility." Yuki frowned. "Balba Galilei or mostly known as the Genocide Archbishop."

"Well, that's a nickname to remember."

"...If I go after the Fallen Angels, then can I reach him..." Kiba scowled, clenching his fist so hard that blood starts to come out a little.

"Don't get carried away, Yuuto especially since this guy is probably with Kokabiel." I told him with a serious looked in my eyes. "I hate to admit it but this guy who outranks everyone of us in pure power and experience, he could slaughter us all."

"Anyway, let's move onto the cooperation strategy." Xenovia spoke up as she started writing down a number on a notepad and handed it to us. "If something happens, call this number."

"Thanks. Then we should also-"

"We already received (Y/N)-chan's number from Ms. Hyoudou." Irina told us as she pulled out her phone, showing off my number.

"When did she even have time to..." I twitched my eyes in annoyance before sighing in defeat. "N-Never mind, we'll call you if anything happens."

"Then that's it then." Xenovia said as she and the other two stood up and started walking outside of the stand. "I'll repay you for the meal another time, Dream Demon (Y/N) Hyoudou and Red Dragon Emperor Issei Hyoudou."

"Bring me to a date and its settles." I joked as she nodded her head and jotted it down on her notepad. "I WAS JOKING!"

"Thanks for the meal, (Y/N)-chan!" Irina pinched my face with a smile, masking her jealousy. "Treat me again next time as well!"

"Aah...Iri-chan...that hurts..."

"Thank you for the food, I'll see you again big brother!" Yuki waved as the three of them said their goodbyes before leaving the restaurant. We all then release a breath of relief before I pushed both Saji and Kiba out of our sit.

"Ow! What was that for?!" Saji yelled in anger as Kiba slowly stood up and sit the opposite side of us.

"It's getting uncomfortable with five people sharing a same bench!" I told him as Saji sighed and sat beside Kiba.

"...Issei, (Y/N)." Kiba started to speak. "Why did you do this?"

"Well, we are comrades." Issei began. "And we belong to the same group. And you helped me out before as well. It's not like I'm trying to repay you, but we thought we would like to give you a hand this time."

"Originally I was going to punch your gut for being an edgy brat." I admitted, cracking my knuckles. "Besides, do you know how Rias feels right now? She'll get upset if you start going rampage while screaming 'EXCALIBUUUUUUUUR' like a crazy black knight. The fact that I agree to cause trouble to tomato head with Issei, prove that I'm willing to do anything for a friend."

"...Yuuto-senpai." Koneko looked towards Kiba with sad eyes. "I would get lonely...if Senpai disappeared...I will help you...that's why please don't go."

Kiba smiled at Koneko before laughing a bit. "I give up. If Koneko-chan says that to me, then I can't do reckless things. Okay, I work with you. Thanks to you both, I know who is my true enemy is. But since we are doing this, we are definitely going to defeat the Excalibur."

After Koneko smiled at his response, I immediately hugged her, having a smile on my face. "Aw, Koneko-chan you're just too adorable to be real! I wanna hug you and kiss you forever!"

"...(N/N), you're kind of embarrassing me." She blushed, but accepted the headpat that was given by me and purred slowly.

"Stop rubbing it to our faces that you guys are a couple!" Both Saji and Issei cried out in jealousy.

"Suck it..." We both stoically replied with a flat eyes.

"Okay!" Issei smirked and clenched his fist tightly. "Now we have formed a group to destroy the Excalibur! Let's defeat the stolen Excalibur and that shit Freed!"

"I mean, I'm totally uninvolved in this..." Saji meekly commented before looking at the Knight of Gremory. "After all, how are KIba and Excalibur related?"

"...Let's talk a bit..." Kiba then started telling his story about what he and Yuki had went through from being orphans and placed through the inhuman experiments in the Holy Sword Project. "...Everyone died. They were killed. Killed by those who serve God. No one saved us. Just because we couldn't use the Holy Swords. Other boys and girls were put under a poisonous gas while still alive. They put poisonous gas while saying amen. We vomited blood and suffered on the floor. Even so, we were seeking the help of God. I want to accomplish my comrades' regrets. No, I don't want to make their deaths be in vain. I need to keep on living in their place, and I have to prove that I am stronger than Excalibur."

We all then turned our head after hearing someone whimpering and sobbing. Turns out, Saji was crying over what Kiba had told us and cling on Kiba's shirt, making the Knight of Gremory feels uncomfortable.

"Kiba!" He grabbed Kiba's hand. "It must be horrible! It must been painful! Damn it! There isn't any God or hope in this world! Right now I feel so much sympathy for you! Yeah, it's horrible story! I understand why you hold a grudge against those people from the church and Excalibur!"

"If they start kissing, I'm gonna put bleach in our eyes." I told them while felt uncomfortable with the current situation.

Kiba looked at Saji with a nervous expression on his face while the blonde haired Pawn wiped away his tears and looked directly into Kiba's eyes. "To tell you the truth, I didn't like you before because you were a good looking guy...But it's different now!"

"You turned gay for him?"

"NO!" Saji yelled at me before looking back at Kiba. "I will also help! I'm willing to receive punishment from president."

"Ah, I get it...you turned masochist."

"CAN YOU PLEASE STOP INTERRUPTING ME?!"

"No promise." I give him a peace sign with a small smile on my face.

"But before that we destroy Excalibur, I will also work hard." I continued with a determined expression on his face. "You also have to live on. Don't ever betray Rias-senpai who saved you, okay?! It's a good time! I want you guys to hear my story-"

"Nah we good." I waved my hand off at him with a deadpan expression.

"My dream is too..." Saji clenched his fist tightly and his eyes were basically sparking. "Make president pregnant and marry her!"

...

...

...

...

...

*CRASH*

My eyes twitched with dark aura starting to come out from me which goes was noticed by Koneko and Kiba as they both shivered in fear. Bill on the other hand was shocked yet impressed by the amount of hatred and anger coming out from me.

"But you know...making a girl pregnant and marrying her is hard for an unpopular guy like me. There aren't any girls that I can make pregnant to begin with...but I will one day make her pregnant and marry her!"

"..." I kept on sitting there hearing his speech in silent. My hair is covering my eyes with Koneko getting of my lap and tried to ease me from my anger...keyword: Tried.

Issei's on the other hand, didn't noticed my change of attitude and cried after hearing his stories. "Saji! Listen to me...My aim is to grope Buchou's sister breast and then suck it!"

Kiba gulped nervously, feeling the killing intent. "U-Um...Issei-"

Both of them grabbed each other's hand as they continued crying, still ignoring an angry Dream Demon. "Issei! Do you know what you are saying?" Saji shouted in disbelief. "Do you understand how hard that dream is, to touch the High-class Devils breast? To touch the breast of your master's sister?"

"Saji...You can touch it." Issei said with a determined face. "You can touch the High-class Devils' breasts...You can touch your master's breasts! I actually groped Buchou's breasts with this hand."

"Impossible?! Something like that is possible?! You're not lying, right?!"

"It's not a lie. Even my bro have sex with her...but it's not like we can't achieve our dreams!"

"Sucking it...sucking p-president's breasts...you are talking about the nipple right?! The place where you can suck is the nipple right?!"

"Dumbass!" Issei scolded him like an old perverted master. "If you are going to suck breast, then the nipple is the only thing you can suck! Yes! I'm going to suck the nipple!" Saji started crying like a man after hearing his strong words. "Saji, we may be useless Pawns if we are just by ourselves. But it's different if it's the two of us. We can do it with the two of us! We can fight if it's the two of us! We can make them pregnant and marry them if it's the two of us!"

"Yeah, yes!"

"Are you both perverted idiots done?!" I hissed as they both finally realize...they fucked up. They both shivered, slowly turning their head towards me who was already giving them a maniac smile while Kiba gives them a smiles of sympathy. Koneko on the other hand have a paper with 'You both are the worst' written on it.

"...Oh shit! I forget that (Y/N) and president dated once!" Saji shrieked in fear.

"B-Bro...s-sorry w-we gone overboard with our s-speech!" Issei kneeled in front of me. "P-Please bring m-mercy to b-both of us!"

"Please (Y/N)!" Saji followed his movement as I slowly made my ways to those poor unfortunate perverts.

"Hey, Issei..." I called with a slight growl.

"Y-Yeah?" Issei looked up in fear.

"Here...Euphoria..."

"NOT THAT FUCK UP HEN-"

And with that, the screams of perverted Pawns can be heard from far away as Bill sighed before laughing a bit. "Well...I hope the Excalibur Finder is doing a good job on their side...Wait...why did I felt familiar with this Excalibur thing..."

Third Person's POV

"GAAAAH!"

"How long have he been charging head first?" Kokichi asked as he looked at the blonde haired Demigod, currently bored.

"Who's counting..." Yusuke sighed in defeat as he painted an elegant picture of Excalibur Deity.

"Thirty..." Dipper groaned, laying on the cold hard floor while sketching a picture of the said Unholy Sword. They heard another screams and sighed in frustration. "Thirty-one..."

"...I give up..." Tyrion sighed as they kept on sitting in the room. Unnoticed by them, the purple orb started to get a bit static with a familiar zodiac symbol on it before died down.
