Akeno attempted to block the stray priest attacks that was thrown at her. She succeeded in blocking it, but was knocked back by the explosion of the attack, bringing her down on one knee.
"It doesn't matter what that kid's capable of," one of them said to the devils. "He doesn't stand a chance against Lord Dohnaseek!" They continued their attack towards the two girls "Even if he did survive he'll only be a fucking waste !"
Rias' expression has turned into a scowl after they started laughing.
"A powerful Pawn, what a fucking joke!" After saying that, they threw there attack at Rias, aiming for her heart. However, Rias just stood there with her scowl continuing to grow.
"Watch out!" Akeno warned her, but the spear was already near Rias.
At that moment, Rias' entire body was surrounded by her crimson power, and it destroyed any incoming attacks before it could ever pierce her.
"He's not a joke," Rias said to Stray Preists'. Her red hair was now covering her eyes. "No one makes fun of my servants. And if they do, they're gonna pay the price for it."
All of the Priest looked on in horror at the crimson power surrounding the redhead. "Oh, shit!"
"Look what you did now," Akeno said to the Fallen Angel. "Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to taunt her and Izuku-kun like that. Whoopsie on you~"
Rias started gathering power in her hands in the form of a black aura with red outlining and launched it at all of the Stay priests. After being engulfed by the attack, the area where they were flashed a bright red.
Meanwhile Inside the church where we see Izuku glaring at Dohnaseek
"Take a look at this wound I have,Brat," Dohnaseek showed the cut on his left arm to him.
"Where are Kiba and Koneko?!" Izuku questioned with anger in his tone.
But the fallen ignored his question and placed the palm of his right hand above his wound. His hand glowed green and it healed the wound.
"It's wonderful, isn't it?" He asked him. "No matter the injury , I heal instantly. A perfect gift for those of us who no longer have the benefit of divine protection, wouldn't you say?" He then spread his arms out with a menacing look on his face. "And now, I'll show all of those bastards how strong I am with this new power! I shall prove to everyone once and for all that I am the supreme Fallen Angel!"
"What does that matter?"
Dohnaseek raised an eyebrow at his question.
"What does that have to do with Asia?" he continued. "She wasn't a threat! She didn't care about power!"
"Unfortunately, for those who have Sacred Gears, this is their destiny."
"Bullshit!" Izuku countered. "She never would've used it! She just wanted to live in piece, dammit!"
"Out of the question," responded Dohnaseek.
"Why?!"
"Humans don't have the ability to survive in their world with their Sacred Gears. Even if they choose to use the power for good, they are seen as different and would be tortured out of fear."
FLASHBACK
Asia's words:
"They said anyone who had my power was a Heretic, so I had no choice but to run away."
"Honestly, I'd be happy to have any friends."
FLASHBACK END
"Have you ever heard of anything more absurd?" Dohnaseek asked Izuku. "That's just how humans operate. heh! Such an unfortunate waste of power."
"That wouldn't have happened!" argued Izuku. "I was her friend and I could've protected her from all of that shit! I wouldn't have let anyone hurt her! Ever!"
"Well, she's dead now!" countered Dohnaseek with a sinister smile. "And here you are talking about protecting her! Do you realize how stupid you sound right now?! If you were to protect her, then why is she dead then?! I'll tell you why, it's because you were weak!"
Izuku couldn't hear anything all he heard was his own heartbeat
Izuku:I've had enough
When he said that he turned his attention towards Ibara and the three fallen Angels
Izuku:I need you four to take Asia out of here please
The tone that they heard from him caused them to listen and leave
Dohnaseek:Not happening
But before he could attack them he had to avoid a swift kick from Izuku who glared at him
Izuku:you're the one responsible for all of this...you were the one who decided to end my life...if I had the chance...Give her back
[Rias:Any Sacred Gear works on direct correlation to the current feelings of its owner...To put it another way...]
'Izuku:The stronger those feelings are...the more'
Izuku:GIVE BACK ASIA!!
[DRAGON BOOST!]
When that announcement was heard Dohnaseek suddenly felt fear while staring at the eyes of Izuku who went after him
Dohnaseek:it's no use you fool no matter how much you triple your power it still won't be enough!
But Izuku didn't listen with a aura surrounding him
Izuku:Promotion Rook!
Along with his devil wings revealed with Dohnaseek sending spears of light towards Izuku who didn't even bother to move but letting them get blocked from his defense with his teeth clenched
Dohnaseek watched in shock screaming that it wasn't possible for this to happen but Izuku feeling even more power coursing through his very being
Izuku:I'll show you what happens...when I'm actually serious WHEN I DON'T CARE WHAT HAPPENS TO ME YOU HEAR THAT YOU SCUM!!
[EXPLOSION!]
Another announcement from his scared gear and a new change but Izuku didn't care
Izuku:Promtion Knight
With speed that was close to Kiba's he got close to Dohnaseek who screamed on fear attempting another spear but Izuku changed its direction and grabbed the scum by the arm
And using his left arm to punch Dohnaseek in the air but he wasn't done yet
Feeling a painful sensation that he screamed the pain coming from his back and letting out a roar and went after Dohnaseek and letting out multiple blows of PUNCHES.
Izuku clenching his fist even tighter with his mind being completely blank that he didn't even hear what he himself said.
Izuku:Lend me your Strength.
As if his gauntlet heard him, a sudden crimson aura covered the boy, Izuku sent a devastating punch, the sound of flesh being hit along with the scream of pain Dohnaseek, who was sent out through the windows.
Whereas Izuku was breathing heavily, his eyes glossy, as his mind was getting hazy.
"I dost sense it, thy presence doth grow potent, mine ally." Izuku suddenly said as he was close to hitting the ground with his devil wings retracted to his back once more but he was grabbed just in time
"Man you really are something huh?"
When Izuku heard that he looked to his right to see Kiba giivng him a smile
"Kiba...I'm glad you're here"
"Oh wow are you confessing your love to me?"
"...Don't make it weird man",Izuku said with a deadpan look on his face with Kiba laughing
"Anyways what held you guys up?"
"I was instructed to stay back...President's orders, sorry."
This got Izuku surprised until he heard someone cough making him look to see that it was Rias leaning herself on a pillar
"Rose?"
When he said that to Rias, she could only stare at him in shock
"You remember?"
Izuku could only nod his head a bit while giving Rias a smile
"I knew you were able to defeat that fallen but I didn't expect such a fierce effort from you, here I thought you were much gentler"
When she said that, Izuku could only chuckle, "He had it coming, so what took you so long?"
Rias: I was done with my business, so I teleported to the basement here. Once there, I saw Yuuto and Koneko fighting a whole bunch of priests.
Yuuto:We wouldn't have made it without her.
Izuku:I see, I'm glad that nothing happened to you two
Yuuto:oh? Were you that worried for me, Izu-kun?
This just made Izuku sigh and moving away from Yuuto
Izuku:I told you not to make it weird
This just made Rias giggle until she stopped while looking at Izuku's down look
Izuku:...I couldn't save...I
Suddenly the doors opened with Koneko being the one who kicked it and holding something on her shoulder
Koneko:President, I brought him in.
Saying this while throwing Dohnaseek towards the three devils
"It's nice to see you again fallen Dohnaseek",Rias said with a hint of disgust in her voice
With Dohnaseek having a look of fear in his eyes
"And also it seems you won't be able to call for anymore backup since I blasted them away"
The look on his face expressed shocked filled with disbelief
"Blasted away?",Izuku said with Yuuto explaining that Rias has a nickname "Crimson-Haired Ruin Princess", or "Princess of Destruction".
Izuku when looking towards Rias couldn't help but smile
'Izuku:it seems you've made a name for yourself Rose.'
Meanwhile outside of the church is where we see Akeno usinig a brook while sweeping away the mess while chuckling
Back inside the church Dohnaseek glared at Rias with hate in his eyes
"How dare you.."
"When you attacked Izuku the second time, I figured there were fallen Angels in this town, and I knew you were scheming something. We wouldn't have interfered if you hadn't caused us trouble, but..."
"Rose"
Rias turned her attention to Izuku who showed her his left arm
"!!Izu is that..",with a shock look on her face and the nod from her servant confirmed it she then tirn her attention to Dohnaseek
"I see, Fallen Angel Dohnaseek, this boy, Izuku Midoriya's, Sacred Gear is not a mere Twice Critical"
Dohnaseek:What?
Not only him but the three Fallen Angel girls who came in along with Ibara who still had her work active by keeping Asia alive
Izuku who saw them gave them a nod while having a sadden look towards Asia
"Known to double its holder's power every ten seconds; allowing any who possess 8t to surpass even the Devil or God in power temporarily...it is one of the thirteen Longinus:
Rias/Izuku[in thought]:The Gauntlet of the Red Dragon Emperor, Boosted Gear.
As Rias said that Dohnaseek looked shocked with anger in his eyes
'Dohnaseek:a brat like him has the ominous Sacred Gear known to bring ruin even to God!?'
Rias:It may be potent, but it takes time to power up, so it's not almighty
'Izuku:only if the holder knows how to use it'
Rias:You only won because your enemy underestimated you, Izu-kun, now it's time to say farewell, Fallen.
Dohnaseek clenched his hands tightly thinking of a way to try to escape until he looked at the three betrayers and then smirked
Dohnaseek:are you really going let this happen brat? If I die then these three will pay for their crimes
Izuku looked towards them whose faces where pale from what Dohnaseek said
Dohnaseek:you know I'm right, if you truly care for that wretched bitch then you know keeping me alive will ensure that they survive!
Rias glared at him raising her left arm with a crimson aura
"You dare try to threaten my cute servant then-!!"
Suddenly Izuku stopped her which caused Rias to question him if he was going to listen to this fallen but Izuku didn't say anything with his eyes covered by his hair he walked towards Dohnaseek with a glare that caused him to feel a strong pressure on his body
"...You've had your chance now I won't show you any mercy"
[BOOST]
The sound of his Sacred Gear and raising his right hand towards the Fallen.
"I beseech thee, the fury of the crimson drake that dwelleth within my core, smite mine foes with bloodied radiance."
As Izuku said these words, thise who were behind him, were shocked at the powerful display.
However, the one who will he taking this destructive blow, could only beg, begging to be spared, begging to have another chance, Izuku eyes simply glowed as if his kidney was somewhere else and in his very being, was a creature who wasn't forgiving.
"Burn and be naught but ash"
A crimson ball of energy sorard towards the fallen and he screamed in pain and anguish with Izuku showing no sense of remorse.
When a moment passed, Izuku saw the feathers of the fallen all of them smoking and turning to dust.
Just then Izuku saw a green glow and it belonged to Asia's Sacred Gear with tears pouring out of his eyes he grabbed them until he felt someone touch his shoulder
"Let's return them to her"
Izuku could nod his head and walking towards Ibara and the three girls
Ibara felt like she had failed, she couldn't save the one person who was there with her since she was young but the way Izuku looked at her with smile that held pain she placed Asia down where Izuku placed the Sacred Gears back to its rightful owner
Izuku:I couldn't save her...she never deserve to live this mind of life...so why...
Izuku almost went into the darkness that same place...but now it intensified
Rias:Izuku it's not your fault you were inexperienced as a Devil so don't blame yourself
Izuku:...
Izuku stood up seeing the three fallens and Ibara he turned his attention towards Rias
Izuku:please tell me....is there a way to bring her back...she deserves to at least...she deserves to at least live a life with people that care for her
Rias then took put what appeared to be a chess piece
"There might be a way Izu-kun"
When Izuku saw the chess piece he was confused
"A bishop,to be exact Izuku-kun"
The one who said was Akeno who dawned back her school uniform
"A Bishop's task is to support other Devils in the household. Her healing abilities would make her a capable Bishop."
This caused not only Izuku but the 4 girls to be shocked
Izuku:...Rose are you saying
With a nod from Rias she told Izuku she will try to resurrect Asia.
Rias placed the Bishop piece in the middle of the nun's chest so she can start the reincarnation procedure. Issei moved in his friends' position so he can witness how the reincarnation process works.
"In the name of Rias Gremory," Rias began. "I call to Asia Argento. Hear my command. Return thy soul from the shadows of Death to the Human Realm! Rise once more as my Devil servant! Rejoice, for you have been given new life!"
During the reincarnation process, the Bishop piece turned red and began to slowly enter Asia's chest. The piece successfully entered Asia's chest and her body glowed a light red. Her body then went back to normal afterwards.
"So, did it work? Is she gonna live again?" Mittelt was the first to speak after the procedure. She was about to run to Asia to see if she's alive.
"Wait," Mittelt stopped in her tracks after hearing Izuku talk to her and turned to him.
"Let's wait for a while," Izuku continued. "As much as I want to jump ahead, I think this is one of those scenarios where we have to wait."
Mittelt made a confused face at his statement. But she then noticed that the Sacred Gear on Asia's fingers glowed green. After the light went away, everyone noticed that Asia's eyes were slowly opening. Her eyes did open and she slowly got up into a sitting position.
"Huh?" Asia was confused about her current location. "Where am I? Is this Heaven."
"Asia!"
Asia turned her head right to see that it was Izuku who called to her. He was smiling because of her presence.
"I'm so glad you're ali-"
"ASIA!"
Izuku was interrupted when Mittelt suddenly brought Asia into a hug.
"M-Mittelt-chan!" Asia was a little surprised at Mittelt's sudden actions.
"Oh thank goodness you're alive!" The blonde Fallen Angel was in tears while hugging and speaking to her.
"Hey, we're still friends, right? And we're gonna stay friends forever?"
"Y-Y-Yeah, of course we are," replied Asia.
Mittelt continued crying while she kept Asia in her embrace.
Kalawarner sweat-dropped at the scene, but was glad to see that Asia was still alive and not only her but both Raynare and Ibara were glad as well with the latter wiping away the tears from her eyes
Izuku just smiled at the scene while scratching the back of his head.
"It's good to have you back, Asi-AAAHHH!"
But suddenly Izuku got jumped from behind and someone embraced him once he turned around he couldn't help but stare into there eyes
Izuku:Yuuma
Raynare just placed her face close to Izuku's chest not wanting to see the look of disappointment from him but when he raised her head to face his he just smiled at her
"I'm glad that you still care for me...Raynare"
"Don't you hate me...after what I've done...how I treated you and left you there to die...you should be hating me Izuku so why-!!"
She stopped herself when Izuku hugged her that it made her blush
"I never hated you that day and I sure as hell don't hate you now...besides you may be a fallen but that doesn't mean I should despise all...I only hate those who harm others for their sick enjoyment"
Raynare couldn't hold back and hugged him tightly
He later smiled and pat her on her head to comfort her.
Rias looked at the two with a smile, impressed with how kind her Pawn was. Akeno just looked on at the scene with an unreadable look. Kiba watched with a smile and Koneko just looked with her usual blank stare.
Kalawarner and Mittelt had deadpan looks towards their friend.
'She totally has the hots for him.'
'Most definitely.'
The embrace between Izuku and Raynare went on until both Asia and Ibara started to approach him.
"Izuku-san you're bleeding!"
Izuku looked at her with a puzzled expression, then looked at the injuries he gotten from his battle
"Oh, I forgot about that." Izuku chuckled while scratching the back of his head blushing in embarrassment.
Without hesitation, Asia got to work , placing her hands to heal the wounds while Ibara gave a little help ad well Izuku noticed the girls actions and smiled to them.
"Thanks for that Asia, Ibara. I appreciate it."
"Of course," replied Asia.
Ibara simpy nodded her head but her expression was different which made Izuku worry
"Hey, Raynare!"
Izuku, Asia,Ibara and Raynare turned their heads to the direction where they heard Kalawarner call to her fellow Fallen Angel.
"If you're done reuniting with your crush, can we please get moving?"
Raynare blushed several shades of red. She then glared at her comrade.
"Y-Y-You shut up!"
Izuku blushed at Kalawarner's words too.
'She still likes me huh?'
Izuku then snapped out of his thoughts when he saw Raynare giving him an embarrassed look
"Umm I hope we can see each other again."
"Eh?" Izuku said with a confused expression. "Where are you heading?"
"We're heading back to Azazel-sama and report everything that's happened here," Kalawarner answered.
With that Raynare and Mittelt went to Kalawarner so they can teleport back to Azazel. Before they did teleport, Raynare kissed her hand and blew it to Izuku, which made him blush. He proceeded to chuckle while scratching the back of his head.
"Izu," Izuku turned his head left when he heard Rias call to him.
"Oh, um, yes?"
Rias kept her smile on while speaking to him. "From here on, you're both Asia-chan's and Ibara-chan's protector. You better test them well"
Izuku just nodded
"Umm, Izuku-san?"
Izuku's attention was now on Asia.
"Yeah, Asia."
"Umm...," Asia's cheeks were light red and she was holding her hands together. "Am I really back in this world?"
Izuku could only smile at her and gave her a hug with Ibara joining in
"Yes, you are," Izuku answered with a smile. "And I'm so happy you're back." Izuku then gave her an encouraging wink. "Let's go home."
Everyone smiled in agreement with him.
----------------------------------------------------
[Hey! It's morning! Wake up now! Watch where you hand-]
With a groan Izuku woke up from his sleep with a tired look on his face
When he was going to get up he suddenly tripped on something and by something it was his devil wings
Izuku:why....WHY THE HELL ARE THEY OUT DAMN IT!
He shouted umitl he let's put a sigh as he got up and retracted his wings, he stared at himself in the mirror m, seeing how much his body changed.
"...Maybe I should try that dream after all?"
Izuku said but he couldn't forget what he had done against the fallen, that attack and way he spoke, made him have serious look on his face.
'There's still bits and pieces if my memory that aren't fit together, all I can do is hope I get the full view'
