Kenji nodded at Tsumiki. Well, there were people like that. He'd much prefer to do nothing than do all of those things but to each his own. When Ekibe mentioned her flying skills, he couldn't help but remember her failed attempts at using them no matter how many practices she underwent. "Anytime you want to learn how to fly, just tell me." He commented before slipping back to silence to watch the two girls interact. He wasn't sure what exactly was happening between the two as Nora seemed flustered. Hopefully, Ekibe knew exactly what she was doing.

As the magic circle glowed, Kenji knew he had to step away. The silver haired girl appeared in a burst of light and Kenji walked towards the area where Ekibe and Nora were, apparently intent on putting as much as distance as he can from the girl. She and the King began speaking to each other. A mission from Lord Belphegor huh? Looks like they have their work cut out for them. Hunting down Three Stray Devils would certainly prove to be difficult, especially since they have a deadline. Looks like he won't be sleeping tonight them. At least it's at night, he's more active at this time of day.

The Fallen Angel watched as the girl left before turning to Tsumiki and then nodding. He didn't have much to prepare for, to be completely honest. Just psyching himself up would have sufficed. Though tonight might be quite chilly so he headed over to a small drawer where he pulled out a jacket and wore it. He rarely wore this given he always had his vest, but now that Nora was using that, he would have to use this. Didn't really matter though, he was fine in both forms of clothing.

Looked like the King was summoning the others. He walked over back to his position behind the seat Nora was occupying and crossed his arms. "Looks like that welcoming party is going to be held off for a while." He said with a light chuckle. "At least you'll be able to see how we fight." Hopefully she doesn't get hurt in this encounter. One Stray Devil was already a problem, facing three would be quite a challenge. He wondered where they would find these strays.

"Which reminds me..." He turned to Ekibe. "I've seen traces of-" He looked at Nora and Tsumiki before turning back to her. "Them at an abandoned church. I'm not sure how long they've been gone or if they're still there but it couldn't hurt to check. Just tell me if you want to go." Years of searching and still no signs of those people. Even with Ekibe's help in the search, he still doesn't feel like he's closer to finding them. Though to think that there is a high chance that her father's killers and his girlfriend's killers are one and the same is disturbing. But hopefully, they'll catch them soon and finally bring justice.

@Demon Shinobi

Argos grinned as he was about to get ready to just strike the thief and get this party started but soon he heard his boss calling his name and he growled loudly knowing that it better be for a good reason. He was just about to do something fun so instead he removed the fog and made himself clear to the thief @Suku "remember you wont be lucky next time" he said with a growl before he was teleported against his will.

When was back in the room he glared at the boss and said "Okay Tsumiki" he said both of them knowing that Argos only used his first name when he was mad. "This had better be good, you know how little fun I get while being stuck here so their better be an emergency" he said obviously annoyed but they both knew that he couldn't fight his master or risk becoming a stray and he would never allow himself to become one of them.

Ekibe simply smiled as she achieved victory upon her fellow devil's legs, managing to pull them away from Nora and climb into the space left behind to prevent them from closing again. The close contact wasn't necessarily something Ekibe had found especially confronting, as she had to get plenty close to people much older than herself later at night. Although, Nora had the added benefit of smelling the subtle scent of sweetness, an incense which invoked a rather odd break of character for the temptress.

"Ahhhh, you smell so niiiiice~!" Head snuggling comfortably against Nora's neck, the newest addition to the devil family was brought face-to-face with its leading succubus. As soon as Nora began to feel pain, however, she immediately backed off.

That is, until she realised why she was clutching her head so tightly.

"Hehehe! Well, it seems the newest addition to the family has just learned the first rule of being a devil:"

"Don't pray to God."

Relaxing, the foreign woman pulled away and straightened out her clothes. With a playful wink, Ekibe moved aside as the bright light brought forth a new face - someone Ekibe didn't know. She addressed Tsumiki with familiarity, however, so she didn't keep her guard up too long. The banter turned to a close quickly, and the situation made itself apparent with few words. 'Stray Devils who didn't kill their master? Of the Asmodeus clan? That sounds familiar...' She chose not to question it, instead listening to the few words to be exchanged between Tsumiki and the mysterious woman. As she vanished, Ekibe couldn't help but mutter "Such a bitch..." quietly to herself. Although, this might not have exactly gone unheard of among her fellow members of the peerage.

Her head turned to Tsumiki's attention as soon as her name was called. With a firm nod, she pulled out her phone and began texting a quick message to her contact, stating she wouldn't be able to make it tonight and apologising for the short notice. With a faint sigh she pocketed the phone, before flashing her master a fresh smile. "It's fine. I'm in need of some more serious training anyways."

Confidence never fazed the young woman, that was for sure.

Kenji's voice caught Ekibe's attention to follow. Yes, them. As much as she wanted to be there for the new member of the family, she wasn't going to die under Tsumiki's watchful eye. If she had made it, then Nora definitely could. "Sounds good to me. They might even have attracted the attention of the strays, so it isn't like it's out of our master's interest. But keep in mind, that temple's going to light right back up as soon as I set foot in it, so you'll probably have to do the actual scouting within." Without skipping a beat, her attention switched to her King. "Master, before we begin in full, do you mind if Kenji and I go together? It would probably be in our best interest, seeing as we pair so perfectly in combat together."

Very true indeed. Ekibe had speculated that her use of cloning alongside Kenji's Dark Light Generation could create a rather devastating combination, arming an army of rooks with machine guns. Of course, they hadn't had the opportunity to implement this idea, but Ekibe assumed it would be a good chance to practice, as well as explore their undisclosed reasons. She would argue her point with her master further, however if he truly needed her elsewhere, she wouldn't object.

"Y-Yeah, I guess so," Nora replied, still rubbing the temples of her head in the hopes that the pain would cease, or at the very least, subside. On the bright side though, Ekibe had finally given her some distance, allowing the girl to not feel as flustered and agitated. Just as she was finally getting the chance to collect herself though, a new complication presented itself to the group as a woman Nora had no idea the identity of magically appeared in the room with them. The blond haired girl didn't understand most of everything she said, but she could tell that it was trouble with how serious Tsumiki became.

After the girl had left to allow the peerage to discuss their strategy on their own, Nora turned to her king to listen for his orders. "So we're going to be fighting then?" she asked, her tone giving away her dislike for the idea, though she wouldn't argue. The boy had already explained that such a thing was possibility in the future, though she hadn't expected that her resolve would be tested so soon. "I will... try to do what is needed of me." At least for now she would only have to stick to Tsumiki. She hoped that wouldn't change when the time for combat inevitably arrived.

Ryuunosuke vs Siegfried
Finale


Ryuunosuke dropped his guard, letting his arms sway lamely to his sides, and tilted his head invitingly, looking practically defenseless as a challenge to the dragon. If he read his personality right, there was no way that the dragon wouldn't understand and react. For Ryuu, this was just a ploy to further his enjoyment - he'd gotten a taste of the dragons troublesome and so-far impenetrable defense, so now he wanted to test out if he had the offense to match it.

Siegfried nonchalantly fixed his hair as the Human concentrated on taunting him, using his hand to push his hair up, styling it in a way that prevented it from distracting him. "I'm far too annoyed to continue this little facade. If you're so fixed in pursuing your own demise, I shall comply to your wishes and take this play a little more seriously." The glow of his red, dragonic eyes seemed specially threatening as his golden aura started to expand, acting as an extension to his body and being covered by ripples that seemed to distort space on itself - a connection to his former prison and current weapon: The treasure hoard of Fafnir. He barely gave the human any time to think before this strange power demonstrated its might: Dozens of weapons were immediately impulsioned from the ripples towards the human, acting as projectiles that, while far from being as fast and deadly as the ones his father was able to shot from his mouth, could still cause a considerable damage while used against enemies that didn't have at least a mid ranked defensive ability due to the sheer quantity of projectiles.

"Thanks for playing along anyway!" thought Ryuunosuke, laughing maniacally as he charged headlong into the fray. His instincts guiding him, he wove through the hail of weapons heading towards him, coming off with a few scratches that would have hindered the movement of a normal human, though thanks to his own regeneration, he managed to keep moving. A few seconds in, he was already aware that as things were there was no coming through this unscathed, so he decided to switch things up.

An incoming spear heading towards him touched air as he twisted to the side and grabbed the weapon, using it to bat aside the rest of the ones incoming even as he made his way towards Sieg. There was no style or grace in his movements, simply a beast like efficiency that held no knowledge of nor respect for what was likely a sacred treasure in his hand.

At first, Ryuunosuke's crazy attempt of evading the weapons barely attracted Siegfried's attention - after all he didn't really need to care about these minor weapons as his father gathered such an absurd amount of these weapons that even If he maintained the bombardment for a few more days there would still be projectiles to spare - but that all changed in the next second, as the human dared to take one of his spears an used it as a club to deflect other weapons, instantly triggering the Dragon's wrath - A human touching his treasures was something unforgivable, even if he didn't care for the treasure.

He immediately leapt towards the daring human, his legs pressing the ground with such overwhelming strength that it instantly formed a small crater as he impulsioned himself towards the boy, his left leg moving towards the human's torso, completely exerting the might of his superhuman strength, carrying such a force that even the strongest barrier of a defense focused middle ranker couldn't possibly hope to stop - the force of a true high ranked Dragon, the species that boosted the strongest natural physical strength.

"FINALLY!" Ryuunosuke's roar resounded loudly as the dragon shot towards him with a sudden burst of speed. It took some time, but it looked like he finally got the lizard angry enough to actually attack him for once. As fun as the previous exchanges were, they were also getting repetitive; this was just what he needed to switch things up.

"Might have bitten off more than I can chew tho-" that was as far as that line of thought got before Sieg was upon him, moving so fast that he barely had time to react. Focusing chakra on his arm, he pushed back against the blow, his gut telling him that if he tried to block that he'd be a stain on the ground, and got sent flying a few dozen meters backwards for his trouble.

"Damn that hurts like a bitch," he thought, skidding through the dirt on landing. He checked the condition of his arm; purple all over and stinging like he'd stuck his hand in a beehive. Still, he managed to redirect most of the blows force away from him. His arm would take a few minutes to heal completely, and in that time he wouldn't be able to use it like he wanted, however, and he was acutely aware that his playmate probably wouldn't give him that time easily.

Neverthless, he grinned. His blood was pumping and his eyes were sharper than ever. It was situations like this that he lived for after all.

Siegfried didn't need to think to continue with his assault, his instincts did all the job, directly making him notice how the human avoided most of the damage of his blow and made him instinctively use his aura to stop his charge, stopping him from wasting time in the air, unable to move, and giving him the foothold needed to once more impulse himself towards the human, his eyes glowing in a dangerous way - a sign of how truly pissed he was - in despite of maintaining some rationality. His right hand immediately moved while forming a claw, seemingly intending to grip the human's head and slam it into the ground.

"Oh man you're angry now are-" he was cut-off as Siegfried once again jettisoned towards him, looking well and truly enraged. Once more, Ryuu took the seemingly reckless route and rather than move to avoid the claw aiming to squeeze his face like an orange, he stepped in quickly, shoulder first, ramming it into the dragon's gut.

The Dragon, in turn, didn't even try to completely avoid the blow, merely adjusting his position while directly using his golden aura - now fully manifested - to weaken the blow to the point where it was negligible and give him the opportunity to attack, directly impulsioning his knee towards the human that was now trapped inside his ideal attack range, with too little space between then to once more completely dodge his blows.

"Ah fuck," was his single thought as a knee connected solidly with his chest. Without much time to dodge the blow, he settled with mitigating the force by catching the leg as it hit. He still felt a few ribs cracking from the impact, but it could have been a lot worse.

"Eh? You're still alive after that..?" Siegfried sighed in a clear display of annoyance, indifferently stretching as if to purposefully give time to the human to recover his composure. "A human body is so inconvenient. Guess I'll have to take this play a little more seriously." The nonchalance in the dragon's voice almost passed the impression of indifference as he talked, something that could easily be dismissed due to how a stream of smoke was coming out of his nostrils - a sight that could hardly be considered as normal, considering how he was currently humanoid - as flames started to emerge from his skin. He was clearly once more about to leap towards the human in an even more violent way - going to the point of preparing his legs to impulse himself - before he suddenly stopped, as if magically bound by something, and his face contorted as it clearly demonstrated rage.

"HOW DARE YOU!?" He screamed in such a sudden way that it almost looked as if he had gone insane, his golden aura quickly spreading through the area to collect most of the weapons he used as projectiles in an instant - a desperate attempt of recovering most of his treasures before the magic casted by Tsumiki got a hold of him. "GRIMMOND, I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!" He managed to once more yell before the glow around his body got stronger, eclipsing his body for an instant before it vanished together with it - obviously dragged away by a spell

Silence was all that was heard, as Ryuu, previously ready for the fight of a lifetime, stared at the empty space in front of him. It took him a few moments before he realized what had happened, and then . . .

"Pft . . . AHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Throwing his head back, Ryuu laughed so hard his (broken) ribs hurt, any disappointment he felt at the fight ending so abruptly drowned out by the utter hilarity of the situation. "O-oh God, I should've brought a camera! T-the look on his face- BWAHAHAHAHA!"

After a few more rounds of laughter, Ryuu finally calmed down. With his opponent gone and with nothing else to do, Ryuunosuke decided it would be best to head out. As he began walking however, his eye caught something glinting in the sun, and he paused in his tracks. From a distance, he could clearly see what it was, and his grin widened.

It appeared the dragon hadn't succeeded in collecting all of his treasures. Here and there were a few weapons littered across the ground, at the very edge of where their fight had taken place.

"Don't mind if I do~" he muttered, walking towards them, a devilish smirk on his face.

If Alistair carries notes at home, why the hell are they in a parking complex, pretty sure they don't drive especially alistar with his condition. Alistair questioned him asking if thats what he is looking for, "Nah not into doing drugs at all, just was wondering" it seemed like they didn't want to be bothered, Lance smirked. "Alright I'll leave you be..." Mu turned his back.

"Lecturing on the square root of Pi in the middle of a parking complex is pretty strange if you ask me, people are gonna think something is up." Mu said exiting the scene "And what teacher is having you study Pi to that degree?" and heading back to the school eating his sandwhich, those to were really fishy as their excuses didn't make much sense, transitioning on to notes for the final exam and the why pi is the most complex thing in the universe. Note to self, Alistair is a bad liar.

Tsumiki didn't respond immediately to either of his angered peerage members. Whatever they must have been doing at the moment couldn't really compare to what needed to be done. With the entirety of his peerage in the room he sighed. As it was they were devoid of a queen. Something he'd likely need to remedy in time. There's strongest member was Siegfried, whom it would be best to send alone. Argos was formidable but leaving him to his own devices was dangerous. Ekibe had requested to be paired with Kenji. A good pairing. It was always best to have a member with the former fallen angel in case he were to fall asleep.

Even so, as the angered members of his peerage stared him down he remained calm. "I take it by the looks on your faces and the tones with which you're addressing me I interrupted a bit of fun." He said simply before sighing and taking a deep breath.

"Right, well there's nothing I can do about that." He said quickly as he walked past the two towards the "clubroom" door. "The fact of the matter is we have business to attend. This isn't the first time I've had to abruptly summon you and it won't be the last. If you weren't taking care to keep yourself ready and on guard I can't help but think of how you would fair in battle." He teased the two, though if history served as any indicator to them he was quite sorry and would likely try to make amends somehow later.

"The fact remains though, we have been given an assignment by the good lord Belphegor." His words seemed respectful, but his tone was anything but when he spoke of the lord of their land. "We have to hunt down and exterminate a trio of Stray Devils, by morning." He debriefed them rather quickly before motioning for the others to follow. At this time, the group would be just about alone in this section of the school. "As for the targets. We haven't been given names, or very much in regards to their fighting abilities."

Tsumiki thought for a moment about the Asmodeus clan member. He knew her quite well. She was kind, though a bit naive. Additionally, she didn't have the best taste in people when it came to resurrecting and building her peerage. It was likely only because of her kindness that she hadn't been killed. He couldn't imagine her requesting the punishment of death on her former peerage members though. It was likely the work of one of her parents. "Their former master was rather dismissive oft he subject and refused to give information in detail regarding the incident that occurred prior to her strays leaving. She also refused to give insight as to their combat abilities as a whole." So essentially they were going in blind.

"However, we were at least provided with visuals so we knew what we would be looking for." He said as he pulled out three pictures. He stopped as he reached the school exit and held up the three pictures for the group. "Argos, you and Siegfried will work as a team to take down our sword wielding friend of a wolf. Kenji and Ekibe will track down the arachnid. And Nora and I will go after the... Bunny?" He spoke almost as if questioning the final stray. "Interesting peerage for an interesting master I suppose." He finished the small debriefing and ran his fingers through his hair. "Keep in contact."

He paused for a moment as he turned to open the door. He kept his hands on it. Something felt off about this whole thing. "If possible," he spoke calmly as he turned the handle of the door and pushed it open continuing to say, "I'd appreciate it if we could lure them all together for questioning before extermination. I have questions." He finished before motioning for Nora to follow while. "The park will do." He added so the other knew where to group up if they managed to defeat their prey without needing to kill them.

Nora Evans


Getting up from her seat, Nora followed after her king. A bunny? That was what they were killing? Well at least it didn't look human, and judging from the picture it only really appeared like a rabbit because of the ears and the shape of its legs. Taking its size and its fangs into account, the blond haired devil thought that this opponent was probably her best choice for a first fight if she ever wanted to get used to hurting, or even killing, another living being. The fact that Tsumiki was her partner also would help. He was the leader of the peerage after all, meaning he must be the most powerful. Why else would some of the hot heads be willing to follow his lead if that wasn't the case?

As the two devils began to near the location of wherever this stray was hiding, Nora finally decided to speak up after being silent for so long. "So do you have a plan, senpai?" she asked, inwardly hoping that whatever it was the white haired king was thinking, it wouldn't involve her, at least not substantially. She had only recently discovered her abilities and even more recently took the place of the Rook Evil Piece, so to say she wasn't properly prepared for any sort combat encounters would be an understatement. However, if he needed her to, Nora was prepared to do whatever was asked by the boy who saved her life.

Renatus Gadow


Renatus smiled, inwardly wanting to fucking punch Alistair's lights out for that half-assed, lamer than a lima bean excuse. Pi? Really!? Absolutely dumbfounded beyond belief, Renatus just kinda remained silent and followed Alistair, smiling the whole way and once they were out of earshot from Mu, he'd drop it, the smile having literally turned upside down as he glowered at Alistair. "...Well, now he thinks we're idiots, liars, drug dealers, AND bad at math..." he said before sighing, rubbing the bridge of his nose between two fingers, the green haired boy adding: "However, I do appreciate you at least trying to go along with my charade...thanks for that."

Looking over his shoulder to make sure Mu was gone or not, Renatus would be quiet in saying: "I will tell you more about this in time...but thank you for your help Alistair. You've brought me a step closer to justice. Even if it was only confirmatory information." as he started to walk past Alistair. "We should walk the same way to avoid suspicion, then break off midway. Nobody would pursue that far for mild intrigue." he said, seeming...happy. Genuinely happy, and bearing a smile that didn't seem fake...well, it was at least identifiable not the false one he'd worn before.

Ekibe listened tentatively to Tsumiki's words, word-for-word. It was a short amount of time to be hunting down three strays - it wasn't awfully common to have even a single devil go stray a week, but three? It sounded almost like an organised coup. The demi-goddess didn't like it, but would just as well beat the crap out of whoever they were up against anyways.

When she and Kenji were paired together, she offered him a smile and brief nod - a silent cheer of victory echoing in her head. Cracking her knuckles, Ekibe added: "We won't let you down, Master. Consider the bimbo as good as caught. Can't say she'll be feeling at her best, though." Confidence in her step, she followed Tsumiki out of the school building, along with the rest of the peerage. As they were dismissed, Ekibe waved Kenji over, beginning their walk towards the old church. "Come on, Kenji, lets go!"

The sun had gone down and the moon had come up, the pair having left awhile ago for their trip to the old church. As nighttime set in, she felt her senses sharpen - the effects of becoming a devil reincarnate. Eyes now adjusting to the lack of light, the two followed a path along the road, the abandoned church somewhere up ahead along a side path. The quality of the road was beginning to deteriorate the further they went, with cracks and potholes lining the forest road. Thankfully, very little cars ever passed them by.

"So," Ekibe began, thinking. "This arachnid lady: do you think she's a bishop, rook, or queen?" It seemed she wanted to speculate if their target was going to be a difficult fight or not. There wasn't a whole lot to go on with just a photo, though. She assumed it was one of those three due to what she assumed an arachnid would fit best as. If she were a queen, they could be in trouble, though they would fare a lot better off it were one of the other two. Regardless, Ekibe wasn't looking forward to the confrontation. If they were lucky they'd be in and out before she could get all sticky.

Unable to distract herself with the talk of the potential upcoming battle completely, Ekibe quizzed: "Where'd you hear that there were Fallen Angels at the church, by the way?" It was a blunt question, but she wanted to know his reasoning, even if it was just a hunch. If they were lucky, they'd find something they'd been searching together for a long time:

A lead.

Interacting with: @Demon Shinobi @Delta44




Kenji leaned back on one of the walls as Ekibe suggested that they go together. He didn't have any objections to that. Among the members of the peerage, Ekibe was probably the one he worked best with - Argos included but he came to a close second. In the past six months, he's been around her a lot because of their little searches so he's gotten a chance to get to know her fighting style. Though, the one he's actually been around the most was Siegfried. He missed the days when they were the only ones deployed and Siegfried do ninety percent of the fighting and he'd just be supporting him through long ranged shots. Maybe he'll team up with him again at the next mission.

Luckily, he wasn't going to deal with him on that day. He didn't seem to be in the best of moods, probably because his fight was interrupted with this. He'd rather not deal with the fuming dragon while also having to fight someone. It might be true that Siegfried would most likely take out his anger at the enemy; he wasn't going to take any chances with it.

He sighed exasperatedly when the King mentioned that they had no information on the Strays aside from their appearances. No names, no combat abilities - nothing. Kenji was used to going in blind, but if someone had any information then he'd appreciate it if they spilled. That way, it would be easier to do the job and it would also be a lot safer. It made things sound suspicious. Their master was apparently dismissive of this certain mission... then why the hell did they have to go out and hunt for them? Ah, but no questioning the higher ups. Such was the life.

Kenji looked at the picture. Oh, an arachnid. Interesting. This was a recent breakout right? There was a high possibility that she would hide out in secluded and dark places. The broken church fell into that category. He burned the appearance to his memory. He'd rather make quick work out of this one. Nothing was better than lazing around after all.

"The park, got it." The Fallen Angel said with a nod. He then looked over to Ekibe and then silently followed behind the white haired demi-goddess.




His feet were on autopilot as the pair walked down the path heading towards the abandoned church. He looked up at the sky - the moon shining brightly around it, surrounded by stars. It was a good night. He always preferred the night, even before he became a devil. He was always much more aware at this time. He was restless, unlike when it was day and he would be a lot more sluggish and sleepy. He absentmindedly kicked a small rock to the side, not caring if it would catch someone's attention or not.

"If it's a Queen, then I think we have our work cut out for us. It wouldn't make much sense, since usually Queens are the most trusted but I guess it does happen." Kenji replied before falling into silence as he thought about it. Seriously, if it was a Queen and an arachnid, they would probably end up in a cage of web. He hated not having any room to fly around and dodge. Hopefully that wouldn't be the case. "Perhaps she is a rook? When you pack a punch and be able to create web cages, I think it's a good combination. Though we wouldn't really know until we meet her."

He didn't miss a beat when she had asked the next question as he confidently answered, "I followed one of their rookie members to the Church quite a while back. He wasn't able to sense my presence but I made sure to not get too close. I may be confident on how well I can erase my presence, I had to be careful." It would be bad if they found out that one of them had been followed. There were multiple consequences to this, bu the one he as most worried about was them moving out. "But if they did sense me, they probably wouldn't be there anymore. Here's to hoping. However, if they're not there, then there would be a higher chance that the arachnid was there." At least there's a high probability that this situation was the win-win type of deal. If the other's not there, then the opposite would probably be there.

Argos growled as he heard how blaze he was about pulling him from what could have been an interesting fight. Still he knew that he wouldn't have forced Argos here if it wasn't important so he followed behind him and waited apparently he heard that he would be able to take down a stray devil. From the pictures it seemed that Argos and his apparent partner Siegfried would be taking down the more combat adept stray. He gave a huff before saying "At least your giving us an interesting fight. Lets get going sig" he said glad that it was still dark out so they had a few hours before Argos would be forced to head back.

Siegfried Einhardt



Siegfried's dissatisfaction with being summoned in the middle of one of his few momemts of "leisure" was hardly hidden in despite of him choosing to remain silent after noticing the seriousness of the situation, restraining himself to the point that his flames occasionaly flickered around his body as a reaction to his mental state. It didn't help that he felt the familiar scent of a pure devil that wasn't Tsumiki lingering in the room, letting clear that he didn't call them for no special reason and most certainly they had received a very specific request from a very dangerous client - and most certainly one that wouldn't pay anything even after they succeed.

"Very well, Grimmond. I'll deal with the dog for you." He said in a surprisingly good mannered way as he made his way towards the door of the clubroom, seemingly ignoring Argos as he maintained his gaze focused on Tsumiki. "But that's only because I need to blow off some steam and this puppy seems like the perfect target, got it? Next time you do something as suicidal as forcibly summoning me I'll trash you instead." He affirmed in a nonchalant tone that denoted how truly pissed the Dragon was, as it was clearly more serious than his usual uncaring threats.

"And you, Vampire..." He turned to Argos, his slitted crimson eyes emitting a dangerous gleam as he voiced a single advice/order before making his way out of the room: "Don't get in my way."


It didn't take long for Siegfried to actually detect some traces of the wolfsman's presence, as his enhanced senses were especially sensitive to the smell of something so animalistic in the middle of a human city. Unfortunately, that didn't really help him since the smell seemed to come from the outskirts of the town - what annoyed him greatly, since he ended up having to walk all the way to the relatively deserted area filled with abandoned warehouses that the tracking guided him towards. "Oe, Vampire... Can't you feel his the doggies presence or something? I've lost the track after reaching this place." The Dragon looked back to search for his partner for the first time since leaving the clubroom, presuming that he followed him all the way towards the deserted area. Even if he did feel annoyed at having to babysit the vampire, he presumed that he at least had the skills to help him with locating the wolfman and ignoring his utility wouldn't bring him any advantage anyway.

(Quick post cause I'll be out for most of the day and needed to post before the story started moving.)

Takenori Ryuunosuke



Ryuunosuke was heading back home - he'd gone out to have a bite to eat at a local grilling spot. Just a few hours ago he was at home savoring the bounty from his fight with Siegfried. The weapons the dragon dropped were all top quality, and some of them he even knew how to use, albeit not too skillfully. He honestly wondered how long it would take for him to notice they were missing; the guy was throwing those things at him like they were nothing after all. He must've had hundreds stored away in some mystical hammerspace shit.

In any case, it was a hell of a lot of fun, and he'd give an eye for another shot at the scale-y bastard. Hindsight being twenty-twenty, Siegfried suddenly being forced out of the fight wasn't as funny as he thought. It interrupted their fight right when it was getting good - he was this close to releasing his Toki and really going at it when it happened. He supposed he was too caught up in Siegfried's reaction to realize it at the time.

Well, nothing could be done about that now, and the dragon went to the same school as he did, so he could just look for him tomorrow.

Dusk was approaching now, and he cut through a nearby construction site as a shortcut to make his way home when he paused, his head swiveling around and his eyes narrowing.

Something wasn't right in the air.

Something happened here - there was magic in the air, and the scent of death . . . and devils. Just when he was about to investigate, and get closer to the source, he spotted two very familiar figures from a distance.

Tsukimi . . . and his girl-toy. Well, this was one hell of a development.

Not bothering to conceal himself, Ryuunosuke waved cheerfully at the pair.

"Oi, Tsukimi, right? and . . . girly. Lovely evenin' ain't it?" he said with a vicious grin. A perfect time for a good-old-fashioned death match. His wounds from his fight with Siegfried were completely healed, and though he wasn't planning on it, meeting with the peerage's King unexpectedly got him rearing for another brawl.

The girl with him complicated things though. She didn't look like much of a fighter. She didn't look like a fighter at all. It wasn't his policy to get people who weren't capable of it involved in his fights - unlike the old man, he still had some semblance of a conscience.

Don't get in his way huh? Argos couldn't help but feel a bit insulted but he also knew that in terms of raw fighting strength Siegfried would best him in every challenge. Still though it was dark and this was when Argos was at his best. Argos walked out with him but he stayed on the roof tops or an elevated position so he could keep a better eye on everything around them. When he heard him ask if he could find the wolf Argos took a drop breath before using his senses to find the scent trail. Once he had it he moved ahead following it but not before he sent a bar and he put it on Siegfried shoulder as it said "Argos sent me to give you directions. He went ahead to follow the trail go forward two bucks before turning right" the bat told him.
