Chapter 14

.

They traveled about 5 minutes from the park to Rayner's HQ using his car.

"It's a church?"

"A church is a place of refuge for us fallen angels when we are kicked out of heaven."

"I wonder what you did to get kicked out"

She didn't say anything as she led him to the altar. He look around as the altar suddenly opened up to reveal a passageway to an open place where the sacrificial area located.

"So that's where you are going to kill her?"

"She'll be here in a few days so we have time before we prepare for her arrival."

"Well then, what will you do now?"

"I got some things to tie up, what about you? I've showed you everything, will you join us?"

Yuno put his right hand to her shoulder as he look towards her eyes with his red eyes that sends a shiver down Rayner's spine.

"Why would I fall under someone's command, I don't think I made myself clear earlier. I don't follow anyone's rules, so don't ask me that stupid question again alright?" he said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.

Rayner can just nod her head.

"Introduce me to the girl bringing the sacred gear and I'll lend you my hand when you need it."

"Thank y-" before she can say her thanks, Yuno put his index finger on her lips.

"Don't thank me yet. I'm not kind enough to help you without interest. So just do what I told you alright?" he cut her off as he slowly remove his finger on her lips.

"Deal"

"You're wrong again, that's not a deal. That is an ORDER." he said as his eyes slowly turn back to it's color.

Yuno turn around and started to walk away but before saying his last piece that makes Rayner blush like a young maiden in love.

"Also, you're beautiful so entertain me more. It will be a waste to kill you, and don't forget that my orders are ABSOLUTE."

Rayner blushes when she heard him compliment her but didn't know whether to be happy with it or be worried for being threatened after being complimented.

Inside Yuno's room

'The first puzzle is now in piece. I already knew what timeline I am in. Though I don't want to stir any tension right now, I also don't mind it as it seem to be interesting.' he thought while removing his clothes to prepare to sleep.

"Is this what will happen when you got bored enough? My past life is also boring and this life, though thanks to my parents I have a goal to do but still. It's boring." murmured Yuno before drifting to dreamland.

*WAKE UP MOTHERFUCKER! WAKE UP! WAKE UP MOTHERFUCK-*

*BOOM*

"Fucking hell, why did I choose that as my alarm" he said while looking at the crashed alarm clock before stretching up his body.

He stood up as he shook her head and head towards the mirror. Looking to his body he can't help but compliment himself.

"So this is the peak of my body huh, though my strength will still increase my body will stay the same. I'm scared before when I think that my body will become bulky if I absorb more stats but seems like not it. Having a lean body would be useful someday." he then started to make some poses, it would be funny if there is someone watching him now as he didn't change his expression while posing.

He then look again on the mirror and start to have a staring contest with himself.

"Handsome as always" he shamelessly said before nodding and started to prepare for school.

After he put his uniform and putting his well made food on his lunch box, he head to school though he feel that he forget something important but just shake it off. School went as always, he just focus his entire attention to his class as he just do this for his parents. He just ignore the three pervert when they bug him.

Soon, class ended and he saw a familiar face that seems waiting for someone in the doorway.

'Koneko? Did she come here to come and get Issei?'

He pick his bag up and head to the doorway. Walking past the loli he decide to ignore her as he didn't have anything to do with them but stopped his tracks when he feel a tug on his shirt.

'Is it popular to tug on someone shirt if you need something?' he thought before looking at Koneko.

"What is it?"

"President has decided and told me to come and fetch you"

"Heh. She did? Very well, lead the way"

Yuno's guard is always up as he sense earlier when he has a class that a strong person enter the school.

He follow her as she lead the way to the ORC building.

"Who's here?" he asked Koneko, though he already knew who they are he doesn't need to be suspicious.

"You'll meet them once inside, they will be the ones giving you the pieces you asked for senpai." she replied as she opens the door.

Yuno walk in to see Rias and her peerage along with another man and a woman.

"Who might they be? Are they part of your peerage too?" he asked Rias.

"No, I'm her brother Sirzechs and this is my maid Grayfia" replied the man.

"Nice to meet you, Rias? What is your decision?" he said but not before glancing at the maid though no one notice it.

She looks at her brother that nods in response.

"We will accept but before that, we'd like to talk a bit."

Yuno raise his eye brow but nod as he sit down and grab his wine glass from his inventory.

"Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt to hear you out."

He take a sip and relax.

"Just make sure to make it quick as I don't have that much of patience" he said with a bored tone.

"Very well, firstly, I would like to now on what you are planning to do with your own peerage"

"To ward off the bad guys"

"Do you know who those bad guys are?"

"Those who oppose me and threaten those who are under my protection"

"Okay, you told Rias that you'd be willing to aid, should we need your help correct?"

"Don't be delusional, I told them that I MIGHT lend them my strength. Be mindful on your words, I don't plan to help anyone without a price and also I will just help someone if I deem their attitude to be worthy to use my own hand." he said in a annoyed tone as he is getting tired of them.

"But the pieces-"

"Oh that, that's for trying to hurt me. Be thankful that I didn't kill them as I don't want any dispute"'For now, that is' he said as he continue his last words in his mind.

"Rias, is that true?" he asked her sister who just lower her head and nod.

"*sigh* Very well, we have one last thing to ask"

"And what is it?"

"A challenge, we'd like to see you fight Rias' pawn, Issei, would you please come forward"

Everyone was surprised by the sudden challenge. Issei came up front and glared at Yuno before yelling

"I finally get my chance to whoop his ass for bossing President around, even though you're my friend, none talks to her like that!!!"

"I don't consider you as a friend. And tell me Sirzechs, why would I do this?"

"We need to test your strength don't worry I already have a place for the fight if you would accepted. Issei will also be the one to test your strength."

As soon as those words left his mouth, the temperature of the room drop as almost everything now is freezing. Grayfia uses her aura to cover Rias and her peerage as she cast a barrier magic around the building. They then heard a cold and pissed voice coming from Yuno.

"Hey. You're making fun of me aren't you?" Yuno asked while his eyes are now being covered with his hair as the glass in his hands already froze.

"What do you mean by that?" Sirzechs replied as he is observing Yuno.

"You want me to lower myself for a Mongrel like him?" Yuno said calmly as he finally show his red eyes to them. Sirzechs stood up and look at Grayfia who just nod her head. They raise their magic to protect the people inside from the cold aura Yuno emiting.

"Calm down Yuno, we don't mean it th-" before he can finish what he is saying, he was cut off by Yuno's voice.

"You think too highly of yourself, mongrel." he said as he relax his position to his seat.

They then heard Yuno chant something

"Domain Expansion: Ice Age!"

They suddenly found themselves in a icy throne hall. They look in front and can't help but be amazed at the sight.

Yuno is now sitting in the throne resting his chin in his hand while looking down at them with his red eyes.

"Now, you're the first one to enter my domain so be grateful. Now Sirzechs, I also have a place for a fight. Do you like it?"

"What are we doing here? Where are we?" He asked warily as he look around him. Grayfia is also busy protecting the students who are just looking at Yuno with fear in their eyes, except Koneko.

"Rejoice, as this is my domain mongrel. Now, let me be the one to test you guys" as soon as he said that, Yuno raise his free hand and the entire throne room vanish as the only remaining is the throne which Yuno is currently sitting at.

He then raise his other hand as a big block of ice can be seen descending down to them like a meteor.

"Ice Destruction" said Yuno in a low voice as he also put his hand down.

The block of ice accelerate towards them. Sirzechs shoot some magic with the destruction power on it but it just make a small hole towards the block. Wings suddenly appeared to his back as he ascend a bit while gathering a lot of mana. After a second of gathering mana, he shoot it to the block that manage to shatter it with the use of power of destruction.

Sirzechs sigh in relief when he thought it's done but as soon as he sigh, the shattered pieces of ice suddenly form a different kind of weapon and started to descend to them with more speed. He also descend and look at his Queen. They nod at each other and cast a barrier shield around them and soon a rain of weapons made of ice started to pierce through the barrier. The swords just rush towards the direction of Issei and a few of them got through their barrier and manage to pierce him.

After a couple of seconds of being rained down of weapons, they saw a big sword in the sky that is made of ice rushing it's way towards them. All of them can sense a huge mana the sword is carrying and if that thing hit them, they will surely be fatally wounded.

Sirzechs decide to finally use his final form, but before he could, the sword in the sky suddenly vanish and their surrounding also change as they are now back to the ORC building.

"Now tell me, do I need to lower myself? Or do you like seeing my toys that you want to experience it again?" Yuno asked with a small smile as he look towards them.

'I still can't beat that form of Sirzechs, maybe next time.' he thought as he carefully inspect on how the magic beside Sirzechs malfunction.
