Issei wasn't the person who would easily hold prejudice against somebody he never met in his life (except for drop-dead gorgeous women with amazing oppai). But this grilled chicken was slowly getting on his nerves. Dragging his arrogant ass with his harem (Issei internally wailed in despair) and boasting and claiming that he's Rias' fiance? He had enough of his fried ass!
Issei opened his mouth to insult the grilled chicken when all of a sudden he stopped very still. This… feeling… this feeling of dread and happiness… this could only mean… Nee-san?
True to his instincts the wooden doors that of the ORC busted open with the hinges blowing off from the doors as the "manly boy" came tumbling out of it. For some reason the boys of Kuoh academy couldn't bring themselves to call the good-looking bastard the term "pretty boy". Oyama wasn't pretty, he was downright manly and even though it pained them to admit it, they had to half-heartedly agree that Oyama was the man . And in the homeroom… what… in the Maou's name was that? Boss? Boss? Is Nee-san trying to become a gangster or a yakuza?
Nah, that's stupid because Hyoudou Itsuka was not that kind of person and Issei was sure of it. Therefore that could only mean that this "manly boy" was one of Nee-san's many executives. Truly to his assumption, Itsuka later properly introduced Oyama to Asia and to himself as he was known as Executive E. Unfortunately Issei didn't really like him for he was rude to him, but he brought that onto himself when he extended his invitation to his little perverted group and when he got caught by the "manly boy" with Matsuda and Motohama peeking on the kendo club.
His punches were not as almost strong as Nee-san's but they severely injured Issei, even when he had a devil's body. Seriously… where the feck did Nee-san meet those people?! A Joker?! A Yamato no Orochi?! A Dragonslayer?! A futa?! A real actual Harem King?! Anyways, this-this good-looking enemy of men had to be Nee-san's executive and to be super cool.
At least the asshole was nice to Asia.
Sugihara Oyama was strong. Even way stronger than Issei and he didn't even have a Sacred Gear, nor was he a devil! But now, Oyama was panting hard as he wiped his blood that was trickling down his chin. His clothes were unkempt and his already messy black hair was now completely disheveled and his face was covered with bruises.
"You've gotten stronger Sugihara" Came the voice of Hyoudou Itsuka as she stepped out. She, unlike the Ice Prince, the Delinquent Queen was in perfect shape with just a few wrinkles in her clothing.
The manly bastard just glared at Nee-san as he stood up into his fighting position completely ignoring the baffled looks on the Grilled Chicken and his… harem (Silently sobs blood out of his eyes) .
No! The soon to be Harem-King Issei was not jealous of that chicken! He isn't! He isn't! (The blood running down his eyes says otherwise)
While Issei had the expression of the look of denial in his face for somewhat reason (probably because he was shocked to hear that Rias already had a fiancee) Riser Phenex had a look of shock but it was quickly forming into a look of anger and annoyance. Well then, let's get rid of the annoyance and provoke him further shall we?
I dashed towards and Executive E tensed as he backed away slightly but I wasn't having any of that. I quickly subdued my executive by rolling & sliding using my freestyle karate.
[Stealing Home]
My left foot crashed into the retreating executive's shin. Executive E, completely losing his balance, crashed onto the floor while I skidded past him. Then wasting no time I immediately dashed back to where my executive was groaning and I kicked him.
Usually I wouldn't do such a dirty action towards my companions, such as kicking my executives or doctors or nurses or even bishops when they are down in pain. But I needed to do it, to successfully piss off a big red bird. By kicking him in the stomach I sent Executive E flying.
Right into Riser's torso.
The phoenix yelped in surprise, definitely not expecting that and toppled over seat which was overturned by the impact of Executive E as his concubines also yelped as they too lost their balance and tangled with each other's limbs. Fortunately, Executive E quickly got out of his position of being endangered by the large numbers of half-naked women as he quickly launched himself onto me with his arm reared back. With a crazy grin I mimicked his movement as I too reared my arm back. And with the sound of the air splitting our fists met with a sickening crash.

The shockwave was so big that it even amazed Grayfia who was standing and observing the scene that unfolded in front of her. The only reason why the maid never interfered the battle between the two humans was because she was curious, and also the underworld needed to know more about this young human. Just a few weeks ago Sirzechs Lucifer had received a phone call from his dear little sister, who was wailing and hiccupping about the world not being fair at all. According to her she said that her pawn's older sister had numerous connections with multiples of influential human beings such as the descendant of the Joker and just a few days ago she once again wailed in her brother's ear that her cute pawn's sister had a Dragonslayer at her side.
Absurd may it sound, but it was the literal truth. The girl was highly dangerous and seemed to vex Rias out of her mind which proved to be a problem for Grayfia since her loving husband would focus more on his sister over the phone rather than her in bed.
But what caught the Satan's attention was especially about the one whose codename was Executive X, or more specifically the eldest child of the Kusanagi clan.
The Kusanagi Clan was known for their risky tradition of sealing the Yamata no Orochi inside their eldest son's stomach. They were one of the descendants of the storm god Susanoo and they were the ones who carried on their one big duty; making sure the Yamata no Orochi never comes out to threaten the world again. By doing this they have originally separated the demon's body into nine pieces (eight heads and the tail) and buried them deep and up until now they still guard those graves. But, the soul of the vengeful beast was the problem. That was why the Kusanagi clan decided to take such drastic measures, to seal its soul into the eldest son's stomach. So how could the youngster fight against such an evil and such a powerful spirit? This is where the Yata clan comes into action.
The Yata clan, widely known for their great research and practice in talisman crafting, fūinjutsu, shamanism, and their accurate prophecies, decided to make a pact with the Kusanagi clan to ensure the safety of the world. Then time passed and a power struggle appeared in the two houses which the Kusanagi clan won, making the Yata clan the Kusanagi clan's subordinate. Even with this bitter history the Kusanagi clan and the Yata clan remained in good terms and the most talented child of the Yata clan was sent over to the Kusanagi clan to watch over the child who bears the soul of the Yamata no Orochi, to help him control his powers, banishing the vile thoughts, and most importantly, kill the boy if his body and mind was consumed by the Yamata no Orochi.
According to Rias' rant the girl whose codename was Executive D seemed to be the chosen one from the Yata clan. The hazy gray eyes were their widely known feature after all. But now comes the question. How in the Satan's name did a human girl manage to convince the two clan's potentially greatest warriors to be her executives, and why did the two major clans of Japan let the girl do what she wanted to do? Sadly that was an investigation that needed to be made for another time for both clans sealed their lips as they turned away the devils that were tasked to find out why. There were some direct complaints at the two clans for criticizing them for breaking their word of being "neutral".
Technically they never went against their words of staying neutral in the supernatural world for they decided to follow a human. But, is that human truly a human?
Her fighting style didn't add up that she was a human at all. Just by looking at the way this human was fighting, Grayfia could conclude that this human had practiced and was quite good at plenty of martial arts as she annihilated her opponent. Problem was, how did she learn all of that in such a short time. To master each martial art takes a reasonable amount of time that it may take their whole lifetime. Even when one was born as a genius, it was impossible to learn these much martial arts and perform them at such a degree when the human's age was less than twenty.
It doesn't make any sense… unless she isn't human but something… else…
Then, Riser Phenex came to his senses as his arrogant attitude kicked in.
"Y-y-you HUMAN!" He roared with his eyes blazing with loathing and anger. "You dare embarrass me? In front of my peerage, in front of my fiancee, in front of EVERYONE?!" Then without hesitation he launched himself at the two humans with his fiery wings revealed. At one who was panting and tired, and the other smiling lightly. If Grayfia could stop them, she could. But she wanted to see more, to see this human's limits. To see how far she can go. So she stood and watched.
"BURN INTO A—!"
SMACK
Ah… yes. Just as she expected, Riser was easily counterattacked, but not by a kick or a punch. Something more… humiliating.
A bitch slap.
But a very, very strong bitch slap that made Riser spit out a tooth and abruptly change his direction making the immortal devil tumble towards his harem. Yes, this human was undoubtedly dangerous.
"Enough." She said, her cold voice sweeping throughout the house. She gave the human a look devoid of any emotion as she gazed at her with emotionless eyes. "You no longer will fight in this room nor will you no longer assault anyone—"
"Izayoi Sakuya? Is that… is that you?" The human's voice sliced through her speech and left Grayfia dumbstruck with unprepared shock.
Rias' face became deathly pale as Itsuka just called her sister-in-law the name of the fictional character that she got tired of hearing. Scratch that, she gets extremely pissed when they mention the time-stopping maid in front of her. What happened to Sirzechs Lucifer in the living room was the perfect example of what happens if you call Grayfia "Izayoi Sakuya". But, she couldn't really blame Itsuka to unconsciously spit out that name in front of her sister-in-law; after all, she did strikingly resembled "Izayoi Sakuya".
"Za WORLD …? No, different anime, sorry about that"
Koneko whimpered behind Rias as Grayfia's bloodlust increased leaps and bounds per second. Rias' jaw dropped in horror. Sometimes, she didn't really know if Itsuka just wanted to mess with everybody or if she was dense enough to not read the serious atmosphere.
Okay, now it looks like she got the atmosphere she was in. Her big smile was strained and she was sweating furiously. Then she calmly picked up the injured executive bridal style, then gracefully ran towards the window, and gorgeously jumped out of it breaking the glass in the process, then took off a sprint towards safety.
Grayfia's cold eyes slowly melted into impassivity as she stared beyond the broken window. Her ears were deaf to the angry rants of Riser Phenex, the wailing Rias Gremory (because of the broken window), and the awed whispers of Hyoudou Issei as he once more worshiped his big sister. If she gets to meet the human again, she swore that she would make the human cry, begging for a sweet, swift death.
One thing people. Just remember one thing if you happen to be reborn in the "Highschool DxD" universe.
Never, NEVER , call Grayfia Lucifuge "Izayoi Sakuya", unless you want to transform into a sack of dead bloody meat. Just… just don't…
