Chapter 29: The Siege on Nijo Castle
Before the siege
After leaving Issei's room from listening to Azazel's plan, they all traversed down the main hall.
They were about to leave until Azazel had stopped Issei.
Azazel: Hey, Issei!
Issei: (jogs over to Azazel) Yes. What is it?
Azazel: Oh, there was a molester case in front of the hotel a bit ago. I happened to be passing by, so I helped subdue the man. (pulls something out of pocket) This popped out of his body.
Azazel had taken out a red orb out of his pocket. It had an odd energy coming off of it.
Ddraig: It can't be...
Issei: What is it, Ddraig?
Ddraig: That is what jumped out of you in the bullet train. It was what was in the box.
Issei: (remembers and realizes) Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-What did you say!?
Azazel: (sigh) I thought so. When I examined it, I could feel your aura exuding from it.
Ddraig: Yes. This is it. No, wait. What is this!?
Issei: What is it?
Ddraig: This potential of yours. It seems it traveled around Kyoto by jumping from person to person. All while grabbing breasts along the way.
Issei: ...Ehhhhhh!?!?
Azazel: I see. Your "potential" is the cause of the molester cases that have been happening.
Everyone was just shocked and the girls had disgusted faces. They all stopped and looked to Y/N, who was letting out a murderous aura.
Issei: Y-Y/N! I-I c-can explain!
Y/N: (deep breath and exhales) Kiba, remind me to kill Issei later.
Kiba: (nonchalantly) Okay.
Pulling out his phone, Kiba sets a reminder and puts his phone away and they all head for their mission. Issei was still terrified of what Y/N had in store for him.
Currently
Y/N, Klein, and Suguha were heading to the castle, prepping for the siege. It wasn't until a purple mist surrounded them and they ended up in a nearby park.
They were about to move again, until three figures came out of the shadows. Dodging their strikes, they see who attacked them as they were now shown in the light.
Klein: Silica-chan!? Koharu!? And Philia!?
Y/N: The guy I told you about, Cao Cao, is controlling them. Let's defeat them without killing them.
Suguha: Alright then, how are we doing this?
Y/N: Take on the one who you know the most.
Klein: Koharu it is! (draws katana)
Suguha: Alright then. Silica-chan is my opponent.
Y/N: Yeah. (draws both swords)
With a plan set, the three lunge at their opponents and a heated battle starts.
Philia started with the skill {Fad Edge} as she drew near. Using the skill {Cross Block}. Y/N blocks the strike and uses the skill {Double Circular}, spinning in a circle as he slashes with both swords horizontally.
With her quick movements, Philia swiftly dodges the attack and lands on her feet, lunging quickly and initiating her next skill, {Infinite}. She slashes in an infinite movement before slashing upwards from left to right. Y/N parries with his right sword and uses the Sword Skill, {Horizontal}. A loud clang was heard as Philia had pulled out another dagger, dual wielding as well. With his first attack blocked, Y/N uses Skill Connect, following up with the skill {Horizontal Arc}, a horizontal swing from left to right then another horizontal swing from right to left.
Philia blocks Y/N's strike by catching Y/N's swords with her daggers before kicking him off. With her right dagger, she lunges forward using the skill {Accel Raid}, a flurry of precise strikes. Y/N blocks about three of them, but the rest pierce his chest, causing him to bleed as he jumps back in pain. Using Skill Connect, Philia lunges forward with {Starlight Splash}. Before her attack connected, a bright yellow barrier appeared as Y/N's eyes were illuminating to the familiar golden yellow. As he sent Philia back, he generated a Luminous Element in his hand, casting it and modifying it to heal his injuries.
The stab marks from Philia's attack before hand start to heal and return, looking like Y/N never even suffered any damage at all. Getting into his sword stance once again, he lunges forward using the skill {Crimson Splash}, a heavy attack consisting of various high-speed slashes with both of his swords. Philia lunges as well, using the skill {Eternal Cyclone}.
The blades clash and Philia's second dagger was knocked out of her hand as Y/N's Blue Rose Sword was knocked out of his hand as well.
Y/N then lunges forward, using the skill {Vorpal Strike} as Philia had retaliated back with the skill {Rapid Bite}. Parried strikes and sparks flew as the blades struck against each other. Y/N skids back, but recovers quickly as he runs forward with the skill {Deadly Sins}. As he struck each of those seven-hits, he uses Skill Connect once more, using the skill {Horizontal Square}.
The blue-rhombus trail appears and quickly disappears as Y/N landed the attack. Philia collapses on to the ground. Breathing heavily, Y/N sheathes the Night Sky Sword on his back and walks over the the Blue Rose Sword to put it back into it's sheathe as well.
He walks back over to Philia, who was still breathing. He sighs in relief and picks her up, setting her down on one of the park benches. Looking over to the others, Klein had Koharu over his shoulder as he was heading to the same bench Philia was sitting on. Suguha had laid Silica up against a tree. From above, the familiar blue dragon flew in and rested on the head of her owner. With a nod, Klein, Suguha, and Y/N continue their way over to Nijo Castle, reuniting with the rest of the ORC.
Timeskip-Nijo Castle
Y/N and his group had met up with the rest of the ORC in front of Nijo Castle. Xenovia had an upgraded Durandal made from the shards of the other six Excalibur swords. It was now known as Ex-Durandal.
Soon enough, Issei arrived with Kunou.
Issei: Hey! Sorry for the wait!
Kiba: Thank goodness your okay.
Issei: You guys too!
Asia: Yes!
Xenovia: Of course!
Issei: Huh? And...
Looking over to the direction Issei was looking at, they see Saji helping a sickened Rossweisse as she was still puking up alcohol from earlier today.
Issei: (points to Durandal) Xenovia, what's that?
Xenovia: Oh, it just arrived from the church. It's the modified Durandal.
Issei: So it managed to make it in the nick of time!
They were all startled as the gates of Nijo castle begins to open.
Y/N: Looks like they were waiting for us.
Issei: (nods) Yeah.
They walk inside and spot Cao Cao standing atop the castle with three other of his allies.
Cao Cao: You are all truly astounding.
Issei: Cao Cao!
They hear the snapping of twigs behind them and they turn around. Upon looking behind them, they spot two of Cao Cao's men holding Yasaka captured.
Kunou: Mother! Mother! It's Kunou!
Yasaka doesn't respond as her eyes were dull. Something was wrong. Y/N could feel something off about her aura.
Y/N: (whispers) Klein, Sugu. Do you feel that?
Klein: (whispers) Yeah...something's off about her.
Kunou: Mother! What's wrong!? Please wake up! (turns to Cao Cao) You bastards! What have you done to my mother!?
Cao Cao: Didn't I tell you? We are having her help us with an experiment, little princess.
Cao Cao bangs his lance once and Yasaka starts to scream in pain as a blue light starts to envelop her.
She shines brightly as she started to change into a different form. Soon, a loud howl was heard as there were nine, long giant tails. Her body was now in the shape of a giant fix. She had turned into the Nine-Tails.
Issei: (shocked) This is the legendary Youkai, the Nine-Tailed fox...
Kunou: Mother...
Cao Cao: A Nine-Tailed fox is the highest class of Youkai. They city of Kyoto, which has an unbreakable bond with them, was built using techniques that fill it with chi. If we used the power of the Nine-Tailed fox and such a city together...we can call Great Red into this dimension.
Y/N: Are you insane!?
Issei: That guy just likes to hang out in the Dimensional Gap, but he doesn't cause anyone problems!
Cao Cao: It is as you say. However, he is troublesome existence to our boss.
Y/N: That's right...all Ophis wants is to return home.
Cao Cao: But, he is in the way.
Issei: So you plan to call Great Red here and kill him?
Cao Cao: I wonder. We have to catch him first. Don't you have any interest in him? For instance, the effect of Dragon Eater against the Red Dragon God Emperor?
Issei: I don't get it, but I'll have you return their leader no matter what!
Xenovia: Issei is right! (raises Durandal) Your actions put everyone in danger. It would be best to stop you right now.
Kiba: I agree with Xenovia.
Y/N/Klein/Suguha: (thoughts) Who doesn't? Isn't this the main point of the operation?
Saji: Anyone involved with the Gremory family always walks the line of life and death...well, it's for everyone, including my friends. Vritra, looks like we can go all out today.
Y/N: I guess that means the same for us too.
As Y/N closed his eyes, his magical power spikes up as does Saji. Xenovia had raised her sword and it was engulfed in a holy aura. She swung the blade with force that it caused an explosion, a bright light occurring as a giant dust cloud engulfs the city of Kyoto.
Issei: (coughs) Huh? Huuuh!?
The dust had cleared and it was shown that Xenovia had destroyed the whole entire castle.
Y/N: You know, you just destroyed a piece of history, you know that?
Klein: Oh boy, this'll take awhile to fix...
Xenovia: (sighs in relief) Whew...
Issei: Don't whew! Not a whew situation!
Suguha: I must say, that power is quite impressive.
Issei: Besides, don't make a face like you just finished a work shift!
Xenovia: (smiles) The opening attack is always important.
Issei: (deadpan) Hey, hey, hey...
Xenovia: This new Durandal was made by combining Excalibur to it with alchemy. And I've named it as well. Ex-Durandal.
Y/N: (mutters) Real original name there.
Xenovia: Well, if he fell with that, we won't have to go through much trouble.
Cao Cao and his allies soon start to crawl out of the crater, having not sustaining any damage at all.
Cao Cao: (smirks) That was nice. All of you are already at the level of any high-ranking Devil's family.
Silver haired man: I can't believe Shalba and Beelzebub looked down on any of you. Caught up in their old ways, they couldn't see those rising up below them...I believe. Now then. What should we do?
Cao Cao: Well, for now...Georg! Begin the experiment.
The man in a red cloak, Georg, nods and walks off and starts to cast many magic circles off different colors.
Rossweisse: At a quick glance, I can tell he's using Norse magic, Demonic spells, Fallen Angel spells, black magic, white magic, and fairy magic spells.
Y/N: Quite a library of spells he has.
Yasaka's magic starts to spike and she lets out a howl, empowering her.
Georg: The spell circle and placement of sacrifice is good. Now we will see if Great Red is attracted to the city's power.
Cao Cao: Roger. I leave the rest to you. All right. Well, Siegfried. Who will you go after?
The silver haired man, Siegfried, raises his swords, pointing them at Kiba and Y/N, who were standing side by side, and Xenovia.
Cao Cao: Jeanne. Heracles.
Jeanne: Then, I'll fight with the little Angel and black haired girl over there.
Irina and Suguha gulp as their opponent is carrying the spirit of Joan of Arc.
Heracles: I'll deal with the silver haired lady and the samurai.
Klein: Then come at me!
Y/N: Klein, if you lose, I'm kicking your ass later.
Cao Cao: And my opponent is the Red Dragon Emperor. (chuckles) And what about Vritra over there?
Issei: Saji, take care of the nine-tailed leader. Help her escape that spot somehow.
Saji: Got it. I'll handle the monster. Hyoudou, don't die.
Issei: (grins) Yeah. You too.
Saji: Vritra Promotion!
Saji transforms as he was now a giant, black snake-like dragon. Vritra yells in excitement.
Cao Cao: Well, well. One of the five great Dragon Kings, Prison Dragon Vritra. So he really has returned.
Issei: Asia! Take care of Kunou!
Asia: Yes!
Issei: Kunou, can you take care of Asia?
Kunou: Of course! However...
Issei: (activates gauntlet) Yeah, I know. I...we will be the ones to save your mother!
Kunou: Yes!
Ddraig: Welsh Dragon Balance Breaker!
Issei then changes into his armor and begins to taunt Cao Cao.
Issei: Are you stronger than Vali?
Cao Cao: Who knows? However, I'm not weak. Though I am of the weak human race.
The battle then begins as Saji engages Kunou's mother. Issei starts to clash with Cao Cao, Klein and Rossweisse with Heracles, and Irina and Suguha up against Jeanne.
Kiba, Y/N, and Xenovia make their way to Siegfried and they begin to clash. Xenovia takes out Excalibur Destruction from Durandal.
Xenovia: Looks like I'll need both swords!
Y/N: Think you can dual wield them?
Xenovia: I have been training!
Y/N: Then let's see what you've learned. Double Circular!
The Black Swordsman lunges forward at Siegfried, using {Double Circular}. Siegfried was using multiple swords and he starts to clash with the black haired boy.
Y/N was surprised. Siegfried was able to keep up with Y/N when he was dual wielding. The only one capable of doing so was Kiba and a worthy warrior he fought long ago, Heathcliff. The two separate from their clash and Siegfried smirks.
Siegfried: Since you're here, let me show it to you. Balance Break!
Arms start to appear out of Siegfried's body and he takes out more Demonic swords. Y/N could feel the power radiating off of them.
Xenovia: Six swords!
Siegfried: Demon swords Tyrfing and Dainsleif. I also have a sword of light for Devils.
Kiba: He's like an Asura.
Siegfried: This is my Chaos Edge, Asura Revenge. Like my Twice Critical...this Balance Breaker is also a subspecies!
The silver haired man charges and three do as well and the sounds of battles were filling the area. Beams of energy being fired off, strands of magic were flying everywhere. The sparks of blades clashing against each other and the clangs of metal were heard.
It was an all out skirmish. A fight to survive. Legendary heroes fighting one another.
After minutes of clashing, the only ones left fit to fight were Y/N and Issei. The two look around and see their friends have fallen. Y/N was angered as the one he loves dearly had been beaten.
Siegfried: You certainly are strong. They don't call you the Star King for nothing.
Y/N: Star King, huh? I'll show you. Release Recollection!
Raising the Night Sky Sword into the air, a purple pillar of light was fired off. Stars start to come towards the purple beacon, Y/N's magical power rising.
Strength starts to surge through him and he readies his blade before leaping forward, activating {Starburst Stream}.
Y/N: Starburst...Stream!
Siegfried starts to move his swords around, parrying the strikes for Y/N's sword skill. Even after the sixteen-hits, Siegfried seemed unfazed so Y/N gathered up more power and used Skill Connect, initiating his most powerful skill, {Eclipse}.
Y/N: Rrraaaahh!!!
Y/N was running out of time as Yasaka's power was rising up fast. Great Red's arrival seemed to be coming closer.
Cao Cao and the rest of his allies, except Siegfried, start to walk away, thinking the battle was won. But Issei hadn't given up yet. His previous successor, Elsha, had made him realized his potential and his power spikes. Cao Cao and the others immediately stop and looked at the brown haired boy.
Issei holds his hands up and bodies of people start to rise up. This was coming from his potential and these bodies were the various bodies his orb of potential had went around groping people's breasts. Y/N was already close to stopping his battle and jamming his sword right through the perverted boy's skull.
Soon they stop moving and sink into the ground. A pink magic circle appears where they once were.
Issei: S...Summon... Summon, Boobs!
Issei had screamed to the top of his lungs and a red pillar of light came through. It shot into the sky and it expanded, coming out of it was Rias.
Y/N: ...Eeeeehhhhh!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
-----------
Writing that last scene was so fucking hard for me for some reason. Just watching the scene was already painful. Anyway, hope you all enjoyed the chapter. Had a lot of fun making the character having attempts on killing Issei. Seriously, why is this dude such a fucking cuck lord. Apparently, the original writer was supposed to have Issei as a nice guy. You know, basically another Kiba. Where the hell did he go down to make Issei the biggest pervert? Whatever. Anyway, stay safe out there.
-okami
Getting near the time of Halloween! Got a special planned for it!
