Chapter 26: Chapter 26 The Submission
….date.
"IT WAS YOU!" she yelled, walking up to Azazel and punching him in the face. "YOU WERE THAT GUY IN THE TRENCHCOAT! YOU WERE STALKING ME AND KENJI THE WHOLE TIME, YOU ASSHOLE!"
One look at the expression Azazel was giving Valian was all she needed to see. It was a mixture of guilt, humour, and hurt.
And there was only one thought going through his mind.
'Damn. Valian can hit hard.'
"I SWEAR, AZAZEL, I AM GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU FOR THIS!" Valian bellowed, grabbing Azazel by the front of his trenchcoat, and dragging him outside.
Azazel's yells of pain would be heard for a long time, and remembered for even longer.

Albedo finished locking the café she owned up, and turned to her older sister Penemue, who was smiling at her.
"You think Kenji and Valian managed to kiss?" she asked.
"I'm certain of it. " Albedo answered.
"Though I'm a little jealous that Kenji isn't kissing me. "
"You and me both, sexy younger sister of mine. " Penemue smiled.
Albedo blushed.
"You shouldn't say things like our time together. Least of all in public.
" She muttered, looking at her older sister.
"Oh, don't pretend you don't like being tied to the bed while I-. " Penemue would've described her 'time together' with her little sister, but her words were interrupted by a shriek of pain.
"That's definitely Azazel. " Albedo said, after a second.
A faint voice then sounded.
"THIS'LL TEACH YOU NOT TO STALK ME AND KENJI WHEN WE KISS!"
"That's deficiently Valian. " Penemue said.
"So they did kiss. " Albedo continued.
"And Azazel was watching the whole time. "
"You think he was the dude in the trenchcoat?"
"I'm certain of it. Now let's go home.
" Penemue said, looking at her younger sister. "I've got some fun… techniques, I'd like to try out on you."
Albedo groaned, inwardly, as Penemue gently took her by the hand and magic-circled back to their house. They wouldn't emerge from their home for nearly a full day.
Given the races that the two of them belonged to, they had their needs.

"Come at me, Kenji!" Valian shouted, from the other side of the forest clearing, inside the battle dimension that Azazel had created for them. And come at her Kenji did, spreading his Devil wings and flying as fast as he could at her (which was at least three times as fast as he could fly when he first came to the Grigori).
Valian tried to dodge out of the way, but Kenji trapped her between two waves of his Power of Destruction, leaving her with two options: fly up, or fly down.
Valian chose to fly down, and fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it), Kenji chose that, too. He flew straight into Valian, dodging her grab as well.
"Come on! I'm going to fucking win now!" he yelled, pushing Valian downwards into the ground.
"I doubt that. " Valian replied, driving one of her legs up and into Kenji's stomach, forcing him to gasp in pain and release her.
Valian then sent a combo of blasts of demonic energy, punches and kicks Kenji's way, before she attempted to finish the fight with a headbutt.
Key word: attempted.
Kenji snapped out of Valian's beating at the last second, and ducked the headbutt, which would've surely ended him. He drove his elbow into Valian's stomach, grabbed Valian around the waist, and threw her behind him.
Valian gave a yell of pain as she flew into the tree, and had to duck Kenji's incoming punch.
Valian replied with a punch to the gut for Kenji, and continued punching his gut, until Kenji brought back both his hands, and slammed them down on the back of Valian's head. Valian flew downwards, feeling very disorientated for a second, but she had no time to recover.
Kenji flew down behind her at breakneck speed, and grabbed her by the waist. As Valian barely registered that Kenji had started to fly upwards at incredible speed, Kenji had pulled a hairpin turn and began to fly downwards.
As much as Valian struggled, Kenji did not let go.
"I'M GOING TO WIN!" Kenji yelled, increasing the speed of his flying to an insane degree. He could feel himself getting woozy from how fast he was flying, but at that point, he didn't care.
He was too busy winning the fight he was having against his trainer.
Kenji flew downwards and threw Valian into the ground, as hard as he could. For good measure, he conjured up as many waves of his Power of Destruction as he could, and sent them Valian's way.
'If this doesn't work, nothing will!' Kenji thought, continuing to throw wave after wave of attacks at Valian.
Valian created numerous magic-circle shields in a flash, and did the only thing she could: defend. But as she continued defending, she saw a somewhat-drastic change in Kenji's appearance.
He'd grown a fourth pair of wings.
Which meant that he was at the power of an Ultimate-Class Devil.
Which was on the same level as Valian, in terms of power alone.
'Oh, shit. ' Valian thought, as Kenji's destruction wave broke through Valian's final shield, and impacted her.
Valian gave a scream of pain and recoiled badly into the cold, unforgiving earth from being hit by the blast. After one hit, Kenji stopped, and floated down to look at Valian, who was in a pretty bad way.
Valian's face was bleeding badly, and her clothes were really torn from the one blast of destruction she seemed to have taken head-on.
"Valian?" Kenji landed on the ground, and slowly walked towards Valian. He conjured up a ball of the Power of Destruction, just in case Valian tried anything on him.
"I. .
. " Valian could barely form words from both her pain and her exhaustion, but she managed to speak two words, while looking up at Kenji, before passing out.
"I. .
. submit."
Line Break
"Valian saying she submits means WHAT?!" Kenji cried at Azazel. It was a few hours later, and Kenji had told Azazel what Valian had said.
