"I'm sorry Nae! Please forgive Saji! I just reincarnated him last night. I haven't told him everything yet."
Sitri was apologizing
*sigh*
"Fine, but I will do the introductions for myself. Seras, come over here so I can introduce you."
Seras quickly got up and walked over to me. I turned to look at the insolent pawn. Normally I might've broken a leg or cursed someone by now. But Sitri was so sincere in her apology I decided to let it go.
"My name is Nae Flauros. I am not a reincarnated devil like you. I am a pure blooded devil land heir to the Ducal house of Flauros. This is my new Rook Seras Victoria I reincarnated her as well last night. Her circumstances are a little special."
Seras nervously smiled and waved
"Although Sitri it seems you made good choice potential wise. 4 pawns and I detect a sacred gear so it must be a good one. Not a Longinus though those are usually 5 pawns minimum for someone at your strength. That means he probably has one of Vritra's gears. Though I'd say the Gear is doing the heavy lifting there."
Saji was about to shout again. But Sitri's queen glared at him.
"Thank you Nae. Yes it's true that he took 4 pawns because I didn't have enough strength to reduce it further."
I noticed Yomihana wasn't here. She was apparently admitted into the school, but were is she? As if answering my question she walked in.
"Well I guess I should introduce the rest of my peerage to the new people. Yomihana your the last to meet her, but this is Seras Victoria the new rook."
Yomihana nodded and bowed politely.
"Sitri already knows my peerage so just explain to him who they all are."
*sigh*
"Fine, I'll do it. As he mentioned he is Nae Flauros. The one clinging to him like a lover is his queen, AND SISTER, Aina Flauros."
I quickly interrupted her.
"Is my lover."
She looked confused at that.
"What? SINCE WHEN!? THATS IMMORAL!"
Saji was amusingly looking at me with something vaguely resembling respect for that.
"Sitri did you not know? Aina wasn't subtle. I've been aware of her feelings for awhile, we just made it official last night. And yes, this was discussed with my fiancé before hand. Anyway continue."
She was flabbergasted but continued anyway.
*Ehem*
"The one sitting with Rias's Rook, Koneko, is Kuroka, who is also koneko's sister."
Kuroka just gave them a disinterested glance, before turning her attention back to her sister.
"And lastly is his recently acquired knight, Yomihana Marchosias."
"His peerage is… small compared to ours. We could totally take him in a fight right Pres."
I tried incredibly hard not to laugh at that. I just gestured for Sitri to explain.
"Unfortunately Saji, neither Rias nor I can beat that smug bastard. The strongest amongst our two peerages are Rias and I are at high-class. While Nae and Kuroka are both ultimate class. Aina and Yomihana are both high class. Only this new one Seras is middle class. We could fight evenly with Aina and Yomihana, and probably beat Seras. But either Nae or Kuroka could solo our peerages."
"That's a generous assessment based on out dated info. To be clear Yomihana has become Low-ultimate after gaining her new sacred gear. Kuroka is Mid-ultimate for the same reason. Aina is also now low-Ultimate for the same reason. But the assessment of Seras is accurate currently."
"Wait!? What do you mean sacred gears!?"
"The Kyoto incident. I looted the heroic idiots of their sacred gears. Aina is now in possession of Annihilation Maker. Kuroka now has Night Reflection. And after merging Yomihana's Sword Birth with Blade Blacksmith, after using the soul of Senji Muramasa as a binder, she gained a New Longinus called Herretics Sword Forge. Oh I also now have Dimension Lost as well as the Boosted Gear now."
Sitri's brain crashed again. This is fun. Rias's peerage wasn't doing better. Seras wasn't completely lost as I had briefly explained sacred gears.
"Pres I though you said only people who are part human could have sacred gears."
"You missed the part where he said looted. Sacred gears can be stolen. However more often than not it causes political problems, and kills the original host."
He looked shocked.
"Eh, Boosted Gearand and Annihilation Makers hosts are still alive, so it's fine. Heaven places more importance on the True Longinus then the others. I get to walk away for taking the Boosted Gear, Dimension Lost, and Annihilation Maker. They get the True Longinus to grease the wheels of diplomacy. I also had Heritic Sword Forge crafted with the help of Lady Izanami but that was unimportant."
She looked at what I said was, in fact very important.
"My friendships and connections outside of the Devil faction are independent of the government and political influence. I will ask for favors but they are under no obligation to help me."
Anyway I a teleportation circle appeared in the room out step Runeas. Well fuck.
"Ah! Here's everyone."
Rias looked shocked o just gestured to tell her about her engagement. The result was more terrifying than expected.
"Oohhh… the nerves of Zekram. He thinks just because his Daughter married my descendant gives him the right to dictate my family because I'm asleep. I'll take care of this. No one messes with my family and gets away with it."
Runeaus quickly left via teleportation. She would probably grab Kalana to help her out.
-pov- Runeas
I arrived in front of the Bael family manor with Kala-Chan.
"ZEKRAM BAEL GET YOUR WRINKLY ASS OUT HERE HOW DARE YOU DICTATE MY FAMILY!!!"
I saw some guards come out of the house. Kalana snapped her fingers causing them to fall asleep.
"ZEKRAM IF YOU ARE NOT HERE IN 5 SECONDS KALA-CHAN IS GOING TO LEVEL YOUR HOUSE WITH HER BALANCE BREAKER!!! 5… 4…"
"Runeas what the hell do you want!? Why did you bring that walking drunken Calamity!?"
Zekram teleported in front of me.
"Hmpf your lucky Kala-Chan only put your fools to sleep. You are going to have the engagement between the Phoenix marquis family and the Gremory DUCAL FAMILY annulled! My cute descendant told me all about it. The moment your descendant Vene-Chan married my Descendant Zeo and joined MY family, you lost any right over her or her children."
He was grinding his teeth.
"If you don't I don't mind letting the you fight Kala-Chan. Both the Flauros and Gremory Ancestors are against this. And your still Maou class."
"But this is for the continued development of Devil kind!"
"No it's not, this is an insult. I wouldn't mind Rias having a fiancé. The problem is you had her engaged to some third rate playboy scumbag third son waste. Who doesn't respect her or her rank as nobility, which she out ranks him by the way. She should have greater say in their engagement in the first place. So if you don't I will personally kill her fiancé. How does death by getting eaten by an Ultimate class camel sound."
He looked mad but eventually gave in.
"Fine, your as stubborn as you are chaotic."
"True, anyway, bye bye."
Me and Kala-Chan teleported back to Ri-chans club they were eating lunch when we got back.
Authors note: from what I understood of Runeas's charcter she places great importance on three things: family, camels, and freedom. Zekram basically crossed 2 of her bottom lines with this bs. I'm a still have her fight Riser but it will be at the young devils gathering he's replacing Diodora's slot in the tournament. Ps. There are so many DxD fanfics that genuinely most people don't know the canon unless they actually read the novel. Zekram in canon had no hand in any of that but meh sounded more interesting.
