Capítulo 17: Chapter 17: The Fallen Fiasco
"Could you die for me?" Her Yuuma persona completely fell apart as her voice went deeper and her features grew more mature. And in a moment her clothes tore themselves apart, just for a moment flashing her bare body to me but I did not have enough time to appreciate as what I could describe only as BDSM gear replaced her former clothes and black wings like a crow's grew out of her back.
'Now you reveal your true colors huh?' She floated slightly off of the ground, waiting to see my reaction as her friends set up a barrier around the park. But to her surprise, I was seemingly unphased.
After all, I had been waiting for this.
"No."
The look of shock and surprise on her face was worth every moment of teasing I had endured. But I did not spend my time savoring it as I took advantage of her shock.
I activated Cursed Energy Enhancement and rushed toward her, even though she had higher agility than me she couldn't react in time because of her shock.
By the time she could react my fist had already reached her face.
BAM!
Raynare flew back as my CE-covered fist slammed into her face before hitting the water fountain behind her. But I didn't give her a moment of reprieve as I quickly dispelled enhancement and cast a death bolt as she crashed into the fountain.
It is one of my faster spells. Unlike the cursed fireball which can take over a second to fully charge and release, a death bolt is near instant.
After she was hit by the bolt and screamed in pain, I closed in and reactivated CE enhancement before hitting her in the stomach with a hook then following it up by hitting her head with an elbow.
"Ghagh!" She let out a cry of pain before trying to form a spear of light but I responded faster and the moment I saw the pink spear starting to emerge I took out a black key and stabbed it through her wrist. Her strength may be way higher than mine but initiative is incredibly important in a fight.
If this fight had started without her being surprised and knowing that I was a threat beforehand I wouldn't be able to guarantee my life. A fight is won before it even starts. She reached rapidly with her other hand toward me to pull me off but I summoned another black key and nailed that hand to the wall too. Because of her stunned state, she wasnt able to employ her full strength and agility.
Bringing out Tozana I slammed its pommel on the back of her neck, knocking her out but just as I did so I felt a sharp pain at the back of my left leg before it gave out.
"Oi! What the hell do you think you are doing to Raynare-neesama!?" I got up from my half-kneeling position and looked at the bright pink spear of light sticking out of my ankle.
"I can't believe a mere human managed to catch Raynare off-guard. Well, count this as your bad day boy. At least if you surrendered to Raynare you would've died easily. Dont worry, we will put you out of your misery soon." Said a masculine voice.
Glancing upward I saw 3 crows floating above me.

The first of the stooges wore a black trenchcoat and fedora and held a briefcase in one hand. He looked to be a middle-aged man and looked like he was a second away from offering you candy to get into his van. He seemed to be the most physically attuned of the bunch.

The second was a girl with blonde hair which was styled into twin-tails and had blue eyes.
She wore a Gothic Lolita attire, which consisted of a black dress with white frills, a large black bow on the front, and a green jewel embedded on the collar, white thigh-high socks, and black shoes. She also wore a large black bow on top of her hair. She seemed to be the weak link of the bunch and the one who threw the fucking spear.

And the last one that was giving me a glare that could freeze over hell was Kalawarner. A tall and buxom woman with brown eyes and long, navy blue hair.
Her attire consisted of a maroon, trenchcoat-like top with a wide collar, a matching miniskirt, and black-heeled shoes. The trenchcoat top was open at her chest, giving view to her breasts and cleavage. She also wore a gold necklace around her neck. A glass cannon.
As the three stared down at me the spear in my ankle dissipated, making a fountain of blood gush out. Just that spear had downed my HP by 25%.
"Indeed. It really is an unfortunate day, isn't it? For you all that is." Saying that I activated CE enhancement and dodged the second spear aimed at me before my shadow expanded. And from my shadow rose 5 skeleton warriors in steel armor with kite shields and broadswords.
Seeing their shocked expressions I couldn't help but taunt them.
"What? Thought you outnumbered me?" "How dare you human!" Shouted the man as he rose to my provocations and rushed at me as the tank of their party while Mittelt and Kalawarner shot their spears at me but I commanded my warriors to intercept them with their shields. Although they staggered from the spears and got 8% of their health chipped they held on.
*Crash!* I jumped back just in time to avoid Dohnaseek stabbing his spear of light into where I stood a millisecond prior. But now he was grounded.
'Grave Buster.' Several skeletal arms burst out of the ground where Dohnaseek had stabbed his spear into, grabbing his arms and legs. Given his strength, he could easily break out of them but it will still hold him for a bit.
"What the hell are these!?"
And that bit is just enough.
'Cursed Flames.' I raised my hand and a ball of green flame coalesced in my palm and just before Dohnaseek broke out the grasp of the undead the ball of flame grew to full size and hit his body.
*BOOOOOOOOM!!!* "AAAAARRRGHHH!!!!" Getting hit by the explosion Dohnaseek's body got launched several meters and back and crashed into a tree and snapped it in half, most of his clothes were burnt off as the cursed flames kept ravaging his flesh.
I landed on the ground and chugged a mana pot. And suddenly a sharp pain in my side, a spear had hit me. Piercing my stomach, Kalawarner and Mittelt had flown above into a position that the skeleton warriors couldn't reach. Reactivating CE enhancement I rushed behind a tree, just grazing Kalawarner's yellow spear of light.
"Where are you running? Where did all that bravado go, human!?" I ducked under another spear and ran behind another tree and summoned the Skeleton wizard and the rotten strays. I commanded the dogs to rush out and they immediately got speared, having wasted their shot I commanded the wizard to come out and start attacking them as the skeleton warriors converged around the wizard to protect him.
The Fallen tried to spear him but the warriors prevented it by tanking the blows as the magician started flinging death bolts and icicle lances at the fallen, nicking them a few times and allowing me a moment to breathe as I chugged another health potion.
Suddenly Dohnaseek who had recovered from the flames, albeit rather poorly, charged at me. Unable to react properly in time I was too late to guard myself as the spear he threw pierced my left shoulder. Dohnaseek created another one and leaped at me.
I activated CE enhancement once more as I pulled Tozama out of my inventory and parried his maddened blow. His blow was heavy for me but I managed to deflect it and slashed his chest. He flinched from the blow, most likely unused to such combat. I pressed forward and slashed him again. But this time he parried my knife with his light spear. I quickly let go of the knife and kicked his balls, following it up with an elbow to his jaw as he knelt over.
Jumping back I cast [Icicle Lance] as 3 sharp and long icicles formed and were launched at Dohnaseek, digging into his skin. Not letting up wind formed in my hand and I released a [Wind Slash] that dug into his arm. I turned to check on the wizard and it wasn't good. The warriors were on their last legs. And while the wizard had managed to whittle down a bit of their health, they would be overtaken soon.
This flight advantage was really getting on my nerves. And just then an idea popped into my head and I chugged another mp potion, it tasted like mud and hurt going down, and its efficiency was down in the shitters but it was just enough.
'Summon Undead: Skeleton Ranger.' It took almost all of my remaining CE bar but a skeleton wearing a dark green ranger clothing with piercing blue flame eyes that wielded a large dark wooden bow with a quiver on its back manifested.
[Skeleton Ranger Lv. 50]
I mentally commanded the ranger to shoot down the crows and the ranger with surprising speed got into position before loading an arrow into its large bow before waiting for a good opportunity and with extreme precision shot an arrow covered in a green hue that hit one of Kalawarner's wings.
"KYAH!!!" Kalawarner screamed in pain as a large hole appeared in her wing and as she was distracted a bolt of necrotic energy also hit. Now she was more focused on staying afloat than charging another spear. Mittelt, seeing Kalawarner get shot by the ranger, aimed her spear at the ranger but unfortunately for her, the ranger easily avoided her hastily done throw and nocked another arrow into its bow. This time aiming for Mittelt.
On the other hand, I was not doing so hot. My brain burnt, my body cried in exhaustion and pain. And it seemed like Dohnaseek had not had enough as he threw another spear at me, my leg wasnt in a condition to dodge so I took the hit with my left arm. Dohnaseek charged at me again but just as he was about to get into melee range again I released a card I had been holding onto.
'Fido.'
On command, the large Skeleton Wolf leapt out of my shadow and ripped Dohnaseeks hand off before pinning him down and biting his limbs. I turned to see Kalawarner and Mittelt land onto the ground. Both wounded. I needed to end this soon, one more spear to my body and I am done.
Ignoring my wounds I sprinted at Mittelt while I commanded the rest of my undead to focus on Kalawarner. Mittelt, who saw me dashing at her like a madman flinched in fear as I closed in on her.
"Stay away!" She shouted in fear as she summoned a spear far weaker than before and threw it at me. I easily avoided her pathetic attempt. Uncaring of her fear I reached her before grabbing her face with my one good arm and slammed her head into the stone floor. Knocking her out.
And I saw to my side that Kalawarner was also incapacitated. Overwhelmed by my warriors alongside my ranger and magician.
I dropped to my knees. Wounded, tired, and drained. But a ghost of a smile tugged on my lips.
But I won.

Capítulo 18: Chapter 18: Fucking Politics
'Now what to do with these stooges?'
I was currently squatting in front of my attackers. I made sure to use drain life on them to weaken them as much as possible and to recover my own HP.
My wounds still stung and my mind felt like it was scrambled but I was still hanging on. I still have to wait for a minute or so until I could drink my stamina potion due to potion sickness.
First, I needed to "extract information" from them. Of course, I knew the gist of their schemes but I still needed an excuse as to how I knew that.
I went up to the one I knew would be the most cooperative. Mittelt. She was already shaking in her boots just by me coming near her.
[+20 Obedience with Mittelt(Terrification)]
I will look at that tutorial later.
All of them were held down by my undead. They could do little to resist as I left their health at barely around a hundred and skeleton warriors held swords to their necks.
I knelt down in front of Mittelt. Maintaining eye contact all the way as she trembled in fear. She looked pitiful with her dress torn to shreds and with numerous wounds littering her body. I made direct eye contact with her.
"Yo, Fallen-chan. I have a few questions that might need answering if you don't mind." I said with a cheerful tone but my eyes promised anything but cheerfulness.
"Mittelt don't you dare !-" *Smack!* Raynare who had woken up a bit ago shouted at Mittelt to shut up but got slapped shut by my skeleton warrior. Unlike the others, Raynare was pinned to the fountain by two black keys and a skeleton soldier held a blade up to her neck.
"Don't mind her. Now could you answer my questions please? Or else..." *Stab!* Without finishing my words I stabbed Tozama next to her head. In response, she nodded meekly.
"I-I'll answer just please don't kill me!!!" And then I smelt ammonia, she really had pissed herself. Ugh, gross. Regardless of her lack of bladder control, I didn't let it show on my face as I kept smiling.
"Maybe. Now..."
...
As expected, the reason for their hunt hadn't changed. They targeted me because they thought I had a sacred gear thanks to my unique presence. They were here on the order of Azazel to find and exterminate sacred gear possessors in Kuoh.
"Mittelt you fucking bitch! You-" Raynare started blabbering once again but I arrived in front of her.
"You know, you were way more tolerable when you were knocked out." *Stomp!* I stomped down on her cranium and knocked her out, she would be fine, probably, fallens are built tough after all.
[+10 Obedience with Kalawarner]
[+5 Obedience with Mittelt ]
I moved over to Dohnaseek. Well, there wasnt really a need to shut him up as he was the one in the worst condition. Deep wounds filled his body and most of his upper body was burnt. He could barely wheeze let alone talk.
Next, Kalawarner. I knelt over her.
"U-um if possible I would prefer not to be knocked out? I promise I will be quiet." She said with a hint of fear in her voice.
But now, I had already gotten the information I wanted. Why am I even letting them live?
They tried to kill me. Why am I even bothering to knock them out? They dont deserve my mercy or my compassion. It would be best to just end them here to prevent trouble for myself later on.
Then suddenly another window popped up in front of me.

[Tutorial Paths: You will occasionally get a chance to do some decisions with large effects. Paths show you the general outcome of the path you chose. Note that the results of the path may not be completely accurate.]
God.
Fucking.
DAMMIT!
Of course. Of course.
Of course, they can try to kill me and suffer zero to no consequences but when I do it I suddenly piss off like 8 godlike beings. Why did this not happen to Rias huh?
...Because she has connections. She could easily kill the fallen in retaliation and no one could bat an eye because she is Satan's sister. What is the Grigori gonna do? Try to defend the fallen that attack Sirz somethings sister?
But on the other hand. If I, an unaffiliated random unknown magician just suddenly murdered 4 pure-blooded fallen from Grigori. They would get mad. My excuse for it doesn't matter. They would hunt me down or get mad at me regardless. Because how dare I kill 4 fallen of Grigori?
So, these fuckers who tried to claim my life get to go free. With seemingly no repercussions.
The thought of it made me feel physically sick from anger.
Why was this?
Because I had no backing. I had no power. No influence. I was just some mage.
As I was thinking that the barrier covering the park crumbled down and the Kings of Kuoh and their peerages arrived at the scene. And upon seeing the scene they had expressions of shock that were so funny that I could barely restrain myself from laughing.
*Clap clap clap clap clap clap!* "Wow! So punctual! Such a rapid response!" Honestly, I was impressed at how fast they were. They managed to arrive only 10 minutes after I was ambushed!
"A-Akira-kun!? What happened here!? What are those things!? Did you defeat those fallen?" Rias shouted in panic while Sona stood behind and looked to be trying to comprehend the situation.
"Well, obviously these Fallen Angels have fallen down the stairs and I, with my undead friends were trying to help them up." I said in a monotone tone of voice as I motioned to the fallen. Thankfully Rias was able to snap out of her panic and was able to detect the enormous amounts of irony in my voice.
"Akira how did you... did you defeat those fallen?" I could see the question marks floating above her head with how confused she was. Honestly, a confused expression is rather cute on her.
" Obviously I didn't. They fell down the stairs. Because they are Fallen." I said with a grin. Rias looked to be lost for words.
"How did you even manage to defeat them?"
"Magic."
"Sigh." Rias sighed and shook her head. Likely accepting that she wouldn't be getting any meaningful answers out of me right now. She turned to the fallen. Suddenly she got way more menacing as she stared at the fallen. I also couldn't help but notice the stinkeye Akeno was giving them.
"As for you all, not only do you squat in my territory without my knowledge, completely disregarding me and Sona but you also attack my friend? Death would be too kind for you." She said as a menacing aura of black and red appeared around her and she raised a hand toward the fallen.
"Hold up! Dont you think there is a better way to handle this situation that doesn't involve exterminating these fallen down the stairs?" I help up a hand to stop Rias. The situation could still be pinned on me.
"B-but they tried to kill you!" I knew that wasnt really her reason but even I was the slightest bit of touched by her concern.
"Sona." I said, snapping Sona out of her trance as her head snapped back to me.
"Yes?" She unconsciously replied to my serious voice.
"Call your sister. She is the Satan of Foreign Affairs, isn't she? It seems better to leave this to her than to cause a large political mess over some stooges." Hearing my words Sona seemed to come to the same conclusion after a few seconds.
"Okay, I will contact my sister about this but I will need you to come with me to answer a few questions as well as testify please Akira-kun." Sona said as she fixed her glasses, most likely out of nervousness. Rightly so, this situation was an entire mess and a half. But I also needed to tie up some loose ends on my part.
"Sorry darling, but I have a date to catch with some insane priests but I can meet you in an hour or so at school." I flashed her a charming smile and gave her a finger gun. My head was completely messed up from cursed energy abuse and I am basically unaware of half of what I say.
"D-darling!?!?" She went bright red like Rias' hair as her eyes widened.
[ +10 Affection with Sona Sitri ]
Before either Sona or Rias could think about stopping me I employed complete CE enhancement on myself under their shocked gazes as the undead around me sunk into my shadow before I shot off. Running at speeds faster than a bike. My destination?
The church. It makes no sense to leave those priests alive. Especially when they can contribute to my pile of corpses.
Before long I arrived at the abandoned church and busted in. I saw several excommunicated or whatever priests inside. Before they could even this about drawing their lightsabers I arrived before them and decapitated them with my katana.
Then I ripped open the entrance to the creepy temple-like basement of the church and invited myself in. Before my eyes was well over a dozen or two of priests wearing all-black garbs with black masks over their faces wearing fedoras and robes. Perfect.
"Nothing personal kids. If you wanna blame someone then blame those fallen for putting you up to this or better yet yourself for being retarded." I said falsely mournfully while shaking my head and wagging my finger like a disappointed teacher.
"Who the fuck are you huh!?" Shouted a young man with red eyes and inferior white hair wearing priest clothes. I think his name was F or something.
"Dont worry about that. You won't live long enough for introductions to matter either way." My shadow expanded and my undead emerged from them ready to slaughter.
"Let's wrap this up quickly shall we? I've got an interrogation date to catch."
I said with a sadistic glint in my eyes. I had plenty of stress to take out on some clergy.
