Chapter 26: Devils Only

"Hello, everyone. I'm Harry Potter of House Beleth, for those of you who don't know me and this is my peerage. Well, except for my other Pawns and Knight, I wouldn't trust the old man around school children."

"He did seem a bit eccentric," Sona lifted her glasses up.

Harry wondered why even wear glasses in the first place? They're devils, it's not like they need them. He knew from experience.

"Right in one," he nodded. "So I blackmailed for this get together because I kind of sprung up out of nowhere... so... That's about all I have to say."

Rias Gremory pouted, "Trying to steal from me and come back with nothing but demands."

Harry rolled his eyes, "Uhuh, like the pervert wouldn't drop everything if you showed up. I didn't actually have the pieces to reincarnate him anyway. And a brought gifts!"

He snapped his finger and a plume of fire appeared with Fawkes on top of a barrel.

"Ogden's Finest, straight from Magical Britain. It's like alcohol, but different and actually affects our bodies. Anyway, this is Fawkes and let's enjoy the night!"

Rias' peerage was amazed by the beautiful creature as Sona's peerage tried to cover their ears. It didn't help.

No one appreciated the headaches from the damn bird as he sang and flew around.

============

It was pretty damn awkward at first, but Fawkes helped out a little. Harry knew he should have had someone else plan this thing. Everyone sat in the building of the Occult Research Club and mingled a little. Sona's Pawn was new to the devil world, but that didn't stop him from proclaiming that he would be his King's wife someday. He even started butting heads with Rias' Pawn as they talked about Oppai and whose the weaker servant.

It was Dudley that somehow was able to make everyone loosen up and start drinking. Harry didn't know how he did it, but he said he'd been to plenty of parties before.

It was when the firewhiskey hit their systems when all the awkwardness completely disappeared. It wasn't just booze, it also had an effect on a person that took the phrase 'liquid courage' to another level. And it wasn't just his Phoenix blood that made it affect Harry so much, every other devil in the room started feeling flushed after the first round as the steam created by the drinks filled the room.

It was almost as if firewhiskey was made for devil physiology.

Koneko, however, was getting into fights with Rias as she wasn't allowed to drink as the youngest in the room that wasn't even in high school yet.

Her complaints about how she was a devil and human laws don't matter fell on deaf ears. Tracey had Winky bring her some candy treats that eventually calmed the silver-haired girl down.

============

"Come on Saji, were you even aiming for the cup?"

"Kaichou, I'm trying, I haven't been a devil for lo-"

"Enough excuses!"

Rias bent over to pick the ping pong ball off the ground and placed her hand over her Pawn's.

"Issei," the other devil heiress warned. "I claimed that you were the strongest Pawn. You're gonna let this ice bitch's boy toy get the best of you?"

"Of course not, Buchou, believe in me!"

He held on to the pong ball and closed his eyes, "Ddraig?" he whispered. "I really need your help here, I have oppai on the line here. Give me something, anything."

"We won't wait all day here!" Saji said before he used his Sacred Gear to shoot a line of string. It stuck to the pong ball before it was yanked back into his hand.

"Hey! That's cheating!"

"Don't listen to him. As my servant, I give you permission to promote. We're in enemy territory after all."

"No way!" Rias yelled at the Sitri heiress. "This is neutral ground hosted by the house of Gremory. No promotions here!"

"Fine," Saji claimed. "I don't need it!"

Splunk!

The pong ball landed in the cup.

"Two more to go," the blonde Pawn cried out. "Did I so good, Kaichou?"

Sona nodded, "Naturally, as you're the best Pawn here," she turned to the rival King, "I got him for half the price that your wee whittle, wuseless dwagon cost you."

Most of the room shivered at Sona's baby talk, but Saji got down to his knees and praised God, only to be struck by a barrage of headaches.

"You just wish he was worth as many pieces as my cute Issei!"

Issei picked up the pong ball after he finished drinking from his cup and released his own Sacred Gear.

[BOOST]

Not only did he land the ball in a cup, but he also managed to crack the table in half.

============

"You were serious when you called the bird a drunk," Daphne said, leaning slightly on Harry.

"I don't know why you didn't believe me, I was never a good lier."

She shrugged, "Gryffindor Golden Boy and all, didn't think you would ever say anything bad about Dumbledore."

"I-" Harry stopped himself from spilling his guts out. "I knew him better than most is all."

Koneko hissed as she fell over while trying to catch the bird that had her candy apple in its beak.

Harry looked over in amusement.

"Koneko-chan, I'll help you!" Issei yelled as he ran after the bird.

A sword sprouted from the wall and hit the bird on the wing and it flamed away, dropping the apple on the ground.

"It's burnt," Rias' Rook told her Knight.

"Err, sorry Koneko, I couldn't deal with the headache," Kiba rubbed the back of his head.

"I want my caramel apple."

Kiba sighed.

"I'll get one for you, Koneko-chan! Kiba-san wouldn't know the first thing about sweets," Issei added.

"Why would I want a pervert to touch my sweets?"

============

"Truth."

Harry was surprised that Sona of all people would pick truth, she seemed the type of person to never want to give away secrets. Personally, he felt the game had been freeing. He already explained how he hated Quidich, and just played it to fly for some freedom. It was McGonagall that forced him to play in his first year. He also expressed his own secret childhood desire.

"Then, the same question Harry-san just answered. What was your greatest, embarrassing, impossible childhood dream?" Akeno asked.

She shivered and clasped her legs together. Like she wasn't expecting that?

"I..." she was blushing as much as Ron did when he was embarrassed. "I always wanted to be a Magical Girl, like in the anime. It's why my sister started doing her... thing."

That lead the game to be much more embarrassing as no one held back anymore. It was full of laughs until the bottle landed on Sona again when Valerie span it around. Before she could say anything, the dhampir jumped over the table and started whispering in the Sitri heiress' ear.

"No! I can't do that!" she yelled out.

"I'll do it with you, come on!" Valerie egged on.

"Fine," Sona said as she crossed her arms. "But you have to do it with me."

Valerie replied by yanking her by the arms, "We need to get Daphne's help, let's go!"

Their performance on stage was to die for. Daphne really outdid herself with the clothes she transfigured for them.

Harry took plenty of pictures but was more amused by Saji's declarations of eternal love for his Kaichou and Issei's cries that this was the best day of his entire life. The two perverts were seen bumping fists with tears in their eyes.

============

"St-st-st-strip poker? Th-th-that's the best idea I ever heard in my entire life!" Issei raised his fist in the air like an anime character as Tracey started dealing out cards to the 5 others at the table.

"Ara, ara, that sounds like a great idea," Akeno exclaimed as she forced a couple of cards over to her King.

It didn't take long for Issei to be practically out of it. Harry had lost a shirt and Rias had taken off a layer, but everyone else was looking to the holder of the Boosted Gear.

He was down to nothing but his boxers.

"I don't think that's how you're supposed to play," Valerie added. It was almost as if he had been loosing on purpose.

"My little Pawn is slightly excitable."

"I can't help it!" Issei yelled as he threw his pants to the side. "I am a man of passion, overwhelmed by the promise of victory!"

"Mhm. Oops, look like I lost this one," Rias' Queen giggled as she slipped her bra off underneath her shirt while the outer layer remained on.

"O-O-Opai, Opai," Issei giggled perversely as he seemed to fight exhaustion, half asleep from the combination of his dreams and drunkenness.

"Don't let him stop us!" Tracey laughed as she delt the next hand.

============

Harry had no idea how it happened.

One moment, he was talking to Valerie and Akeno. Then, one of them mentioned their past, only to have someone else reciprocate. When Akeno blamed her mother's death on her father, Harry spilled his guts out about how it felt to torture and murder his parents and godfathers' murderers.

Valerie added on how she wished she could choke Rizevim to death.

Harry felt something was up when Akeno wanted him to be more specific about his usage of Crucio and was getting really, really close.

Then she talked about her heritage as a half-Fallen when Valerie mentioned how much everyone but her father hated her because she was a dhampyr.

Harry felt her pull away during her story and flinched, reminding him of his abuse when he lived with the Dursleys, so he held her close and Valerie became attached to his hip as well.

They went back and forth for a while. Harry felt bad because he felt like he was talking more than listening, so he never expected what happened next.

Somehow, he ended up with his tongue down Akeno's throat before his Queen pulled him off of her to claim him as her own. As the two playfully fought with him sandwiched between, he couldn't help but look around the room in his dazed state.

The stoic Kiba was holding Tsubaki's hands as they both stared in each other's eyes, in their own world, while their faces were beet red in the far corner of the room.

Dudley had Momo and Tomoe rubbing his arms as he seemed confused and bewildered. Harry's cousin made eye contact with him and opened his mouth to say something, but the King just winked at him in return.

Tracey, Tsubasa, Reya, and Ruruko were giggling at their own table like lifelong friends.

Sona was trying to ignore Saji's pestering as she talked to Daphne. Both of them probably didn't notice how much they were swaying, despite their straight-backed, perfect posture. For a moment, he caught Daphne's eye. She glared at him and he was sure she mouthed the word, 'harem.'

Issei was lying on Rias' lap as she stroked his head for some reason. Harry had no clue how the hell that happened.

Harry finally noticed that Koneko was fighting both Dobby and Winky to get some firewhiskey while no one else was paying attention to her. She was quite angry that she was the only one not allowed to drink, but the former wizard didn't want to ruin her sneaky fun and gave his Pawns a silent approval.

When did Dobby and Winky even get here? Harry thought they were sitting this one out? He even checked the room a second time but breathed out a sigh of relief when he found that Padfoot was nowhere in sight.

The night was well worth the trade for Issei in his peerage. And, with everything he'd seen of him so far, he was glad he let Rias have him anyway.

He turned back to the woman with him pressed between him and placated them. Somehow.

Honestly, he was so wasted, he probably wouldn't be able to Flagrate his own name.
