Chapter 14: Leader's Summit
Today was the day of the Leader's Summit. Y/N's mother, Serafall, had decided to stay in the guest room of his apartment. A few days from now, he will move into the Hyoudou's residence. Y/N woke up in the morning, specifically eight o' clock in the morning, and went to cook breakfast.
An hour later, his mother wakes up and enters the small kitchen, sniffing the air as Y/N stood by the range, cooking bacon pancakes. All in all, it was a pretty normal breakfast.
His mother said he would watch his home for the time being while he was at school. He left later that day and sat in his classroom. As he sat there, he couldn't stop thinking. What was he going to say to Irina? What was to expect? He was still heartbroken about that day, but he still loved her. He just wasn't sure if Irina felt the same way. The only thing he could do was just sit and wait.
Timeskip
Y/N was with everyone in the ORC were preparing to leave for the summit. They entered in and Xenovia's eyes met with Irina's. Sona and Tsubaki were to the wall on the left with Serafall and Sirzechs on the left side on the table with Grayfia behind him. Vali with Azazel on the right and Archangel Michael in the back, with Irina standing behind him.
Irina scowled and looked away, not that it was a surprise to Xenovia. As soon as Xenovia moved, Y/N walked in. Irina's eyes met with Y/N's, but she could see the sadness and emptiness that plagued his eyes. Y/N's face gained a stern look and looked away, proceeding forward and stood behind his adopted mother. Irina looked down in shame.
Sirzechs: Allow me to introduce. This is my sister and her family, along with the Leviathan's adopted son, who you all know as the Black Swordsman. They did very well in their recent battle with Kokabiel.
Irina's eyes widen. She glanced at Y/N, who noticed her gaze, but quickly faced forward again. This was news to her. She didn't know that her childhood crush was the adopted son of one of the Great Satans.
Michael: Thank you very much. We appreciate your efforts.
Azazel: Sorry about that. My guy got a little out of hand.
Issei: (scoff) Where'd you learn your damn manners?
Sirzechs: All of the representatives are here. Let's begin the conference.
Outside, several Angels, Devils, and Fallen Angels were posted outside in order to eliminate any unwanted visitors that decided to pay a visit.
A small projection was shown, showing the battle that had occurred at Kuoh Academy. Including the power that Y/N possessed. A power that had the chance to defeat a leader class Devil, Fallen Angel, or Angel. Perhaps it could rival to that of God.
The projection soon ends and Rias gives her thoughts.
Rias: These are the incidents in which I, Rias Gremory and my family, have taken apart of.
Sona: I, Sona Sitri, testify that she has said nothing but the truth.
Sirzechs: Thank you. You may step back.
Serafall: Thank you, Rias-chan, Sona-chan.
Sirzechs: I'd like to hear the General Governor of the Fallen Angel's opinion in Rias's report.
Azazel: There's nothing to say. Kokabiel acted of his own accord.
Michael: It has nothing to do with you?
Azazel: I was waiting to find out what he was up to. He never expected me to come to the city personally. Y/N here is my witness.
Everyone looks to Y/N to confirm his statement.
Y/N: It is true. I was already aware of him being here and he notified me of his plan. He wanted to wait so he could know what Kokabiel was up to. This of course led my development to engage Kokabiel himself because of my personal vendetta which was to destroy the Excalibur Swords.
Azazel: Besides, I like this place.
Sirzechs: Please stay on topic.
Azazel: I got the White Dragon Emperor to take care of it! Kokabiel's locked up in an ice prison in the depth of Hell for eternity. He won't be coming back.
Michael: Our concern here is Kokabiel's motives. He said he was not content with your decisions.
Azazel: Yeah, he was pretty mad that I decided to pull out of a war that we were winning. I've got no interest in war, anyway.
Serafall: He was an unstable individual then.
Azazel: I've heard a bunch about you guys too.
Sirzechs: That has nothing to do with this conference. Today's conference is--
Azazel: Yeah, enough talk. Let's sign that peace treaty already.
Rias's peerage gasped. Y/N knew that Azazel wasn't a man of war anymore. All he wanted to do was to collect and examine more sacred gears.
Azazel: You guys were getting ready to do that anyway, weren't you?
Y/N then sensed unknown presences. He didn't know who these were, but he didn't like the feeling. He discreetly pulled out his phone, messaging Klein and his samurai gang. Klein notified Y/N that they were nearby.
Serafall turned around and slightly glanced at her adopted son, wondering what the uncertain look on his face was for.
Azazel: This stand-off that we're in...is nothing but bad news for this world. Don't you think?
Michael: The ones who started the war, God and the Satans are gone after all.
Irina looked distraught. She clearly found out that God had perished. Y/N glanced at the chestnut haired who noticed his gaze. She formed a small smile, hoping that Y/N would smile back. But she expected this. Y/N only looked down. She still loved him despite what she did. She just wanted him back.
Azazel: That's why we've got two guys here, although not part of our stand-off, have the power to change the world. The Red Dragon Emperor, and the White Dragon Emperor, I'd like your input on this. I'm also curious to see your input on this too Y/N. You do have the power to challenge someone of leader class after all.
Y/N: (emotionless) Peace is fine, but...for those of you who hurt my comrades, friends, and family, I won't hesitate to hunt you down and kill you.
Serafall, Sona, Sirzechs, Grayfia, and Kiba weren't surprised about Y/N's statement. Everyone were surprised of the emotionless tone he put in when speaking his input.
Azazel: Well said. Well? What do you two have to say?
Vali: I just want strong people to fight.
Azazel: (chuckle) You don't need a war to find tough guys.
Vali: Thought you'd say that.
Azazel: Well, Red Dragon Emperor, what do you think?
All eyes were on Issei now. Needless to say, he was sweating bullets. The faction leaders were asking his opinion. The only who wasn't listening was Irina.
Y/N's words echoed through her mind. Whatever the outcome was of this Summit. Should her leader make the wrong choice and declare war, she would have to fight the one person she wouldn't want to.
Issei: Well...U-Uh...that's a little too much to process...
Azazel: In that case, let me break it down for you. Issei Hyoudou, if we're at war, you can't sleep with Rias Gremory.
Silence filled the room for a second until a small gasp escaped Rias's lips. Why was she being dragged into all of this? Perhaps it was all part of Azazel's plan. Y/N knew what he was trying to do.
Issei was easily swayed with words that involved his perversion. It annoyed Y/N a great deal honestly.
Azazel: But...if we declare peace, survival and propagation of the species become the priority.
Issei: (blushes pervertedly) Propagation...of the species!?
Azazel: That's right. Every night, you and Rias Gremory could be making babies.
Rias: (blushes) What are you saying!?
Azazel: Peace lets you spend every day making babies, and if there's war, there won't be that opportunity. How's that? Makes it nice and simple, right?
Issei thinks of that thought. His perverted thoughts were plaguing his mind. That's all he thought about now.
Y/N was sighing at his friend's stupidity and how he's not taking this meeting any serious. This fate were to decide what would become of the three great powers. Was another war to occur? Or was peace to be established?
Issei: (cheers merrily) I want peace! Make peace, not war! I want to make love with buchou!
Y/N: (thoughts) What an idiot...
Kiba: (sweat drops) Issei-kun, Sirzechs-sama is present.
He immediately regrets what he said, but Sirzechs was amused. Rias on the other hand was face palming with embarrassment. Y/N was just shaking his head and some of the other people were just wondering what was wrong with Issei.
Issei: A-Anyway. I'm only going to use my power for Rias-sama and my friends! That's absolute.
Y/N smiled a little. That was the one redeeming quality of Issei. Issei knew he would always help his friends, no matter what.
Michael: Red Dragon Emperor, you mentioned that you wanted to ask me something.
Issei: You remembered our promise?
Michael: Of course.
Issei: It's about Asia. Why did you exile her? Asia was so faithful, so why was she exiled?
Rias: (puts hand on Issei's shoulder) Issei...
Michael: After God died, only his system remained. You could call it a force that controls protection, mercy, and miracles. I am just barely keeping it running, so I had to remove all those who could cause it to malfunction.
Issei: So it was because Asia could heal Devils and Fallen Angels?
Michael: We are maintained by the devotion from our adherents. We must remove any elements that could possibly harm our system.
Xenovia: And that is why an adherent who was accidentally told of God's passing is also at risk of doing so?
Michael: I suppose it is. We had no choice but to exile you and Asia Argento. (bows head) I beg for your forgiveness.
Irina was shocked to say the least. What was the revelation that was occurring?
Irina: (thoughts) She wasn't a traitor?
Xenovia: There is no need for that, Michael-sama. Being a faithful Christian for most of my life, I had some regrets, but now, as a Devil, I am happy with my life. My apologies to the other people of God present.
Asia: I, too, feel happy with my life. I've found so many great people here.
Michael: I cannot thank you enough for your forgiving hearts.
Azazel: Oh yeah, I heard one of my girls tricked and killed that girl over there.
Issei: Don't say that like it's none of your business! Some Fallen Angel woman killed Asia to try impress you!
Azazel: I am responsible for what my subordinates do, so I'll pay you back with something only I can do.
Issei: What!?
Rias: Issei.
Soon after, a magical presence was felt by everyone. Y/N immediately pulls out his phone and stepped out of the room, running down the hall.
Y/N: Can you hear me, Klein?
Klein: (on phone) Loud and clear. There's a bunch of magicians that just appeared though. What do you want us to do?
Y/N: Head to the ORC building. There's a half-vampire there and the magicians are forcefully activating his sacred gear. Got it? You need to stop them!
...
...
...
...
There was no response. Y/N looks at the phone and sees that the phone was still in call. He looked out the window and his eyes widen. Human magicians were coming out of yellow magic circles in the sky.
He gazed at his reflection and noticed that his eyes were now a golden yellow. He ran back to the room and noticed that Vali, the faction leaders along with Grayfia, Issei, Rias, Kiba, Xenovia, and Irina were the only ones capable of moving. He had glanced to everyone else and it was as if everyone was frozen in stone. Kiba, Xenovia, and Irina had their swords out with Rias holding onto Issei's left hand, who's gauntlet had been activated. Vali was protected due to Albion. The faction leaders with Grayfia were able to move due to their powerful magic.
Issei: Wh-What the...did someone...stop time?
Y/N: It seems the enemy have gone and captured Gasper.
Azazel: That's right. We weren't affected due to our immense power.
Vali: We had our dragons. Y/N had his mysterious power. Those other guys were protected by their Holy Swords.
Rias: (looks to Issei) I'm alright, thanks to you.
The building then starts to shake as it was being attacked from the outside by the magicians.
Issei: Who the hell are those guys!?
Serafall: Those are human magicians.
Issei: Magicians!?
Serafall: Hey, I'm the magical girl here! Isn't mommy right Y/N?
Y/N: (sweat drops) Kaa-san...now isn't the right time.
Michael: The one causing time to stop is this Gasper?
Azazel: Yep. I take it they forced the half-vampire's ability into Balance Breaker state.
Sirzechs: Very few people possess the ability to stop time. Like Y/N said, he is most likely in the hands of the enemy.
Kiba: Buchou...
Rias: There's nothing more insulting than having my family used by some terrorists.
Michael: Our guards...
Y/N: Because of the time stop, they can't defend themselves. Not only that, they're being transported somewhere. Man what a drag.
Michael: Somebody has connected this barrier to a gate.
Grayfia: Conversely, they have disabled our transport magic circles.
Azazel: They got us good.
Michael: Yes. Not only their timing, but their tactic of using Rias Gremory's family as a weapon against us.
Irina: There's a traitor?
Both Irina and Xenovia look at each other. Irina quickly looks back to the window, but slightly glances at Y/N and she could feel the magical power coming off of him.
Sirzechs: We can't stand here and watch his happen. If Gasper-kun's power becomes any stronger, even we could.
Issei: Even Sirzechs-sama? He's that powerful?
Kiba: He's a mutation piece.
Issei: Mutation piece?
Rias: It's a piece that can cause all sorts of anomalies. The bishop piece I used for Gasper can contain power that would normally take many pieces to store. It was a mutation piece.
Issei: I didn't know he was so powerful!
Rias: He has unfathomable potential. That's why we had no choice but to seal him away.
One of Grayfia's defensive magic seals shatter, causing the school to shake even more as it's exterior begins to get damaged.
Azazel: Anyway, we've got to do something about that half-vampire. It's too risky to fight back with his powers on the loose.
Rias: Onii-sama. I left an unused Rook in the old building.
Sirzechs: A Rook? You're going to castle?
Issei: Castle?
Kiba: It's a special move that can switch the King and Rook's positions in one turn.
Sirzechs: We can't send you alone though.
Rias: (determined) Gasper is my family. I will take him back personally.
Grayfia: If we could borrow Sirzechs-sama's power, we would be able to send one more person with you.
Issei: Let me go then. I will protect buchou!
Sirzechs: I wish you luck.
Issei: (smiles) Thank you!
Vali: All you have to do is kill the terrorists and the half-vampire in one shot. Want me to do it?
Issei: Why you--
Azazel: Read the mood here, Vali. We're trying to make peace here.
Vali: I can't just stand here and do nothing.
Y/N: That's one option...
Vali: Do you have something in mind Y/N?
Y/N: We could always cause some havoc outside.
Azazel: Yes. They ought to panic a little when they see the White Dragon Emperor and the Black Swordsman.
Vali: (displays wings) Got it.
Y/N: (draws Night Sky Sword) Understood.
Both Y/N and Vali fly out, and they both prepare to cause the magicians trouble. Irina stands worried...worried for the black haired boy.
She wanted to make things up to him. Rias and Issei prepare to castle so they could head to Gasper's location. The Leader's Summit siege was just beginning.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This chapter may seem short, but the next one will be longer. I promise you that. Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed that chapter and await the next one. Season 2 is coming to an end. Will Y/N and Irina heal their relationship and hopefully become something more? Until the next one. Stay safe out there.
-okami
Peace out y'all!
