High School DxD - DX2 - Worship☆Dragon-God Girl, page 2
“I’ll tell you guys what happened. I heard from Sona about a mermaid, a descendent of Vepar living in the sea around this area. When they find the descendent from the House thought to have gone extinct, it is the job of a High Class Devil for them to either protect or get in contact with them and understand the situation. This is however an extremely rare case.”
Ah ha, so that was it. So it’s High Class Devil’s job to respond to rare cases.
Buchou continued.
“Originally, these kinds of jobs are for Maou Leviathan-sama’s team who knows more about sea, but apparently both Serafall-sama and Sona are too busy with their work to set a date for a meeting…”
Akeno-san then continued.
“That’s why Kaichou asked us to get in touch with her. Well, thinking about our Buchou’s academic points and about our club’s activity, it’s like hitting two birds with one stone. Fufufu, maybe Kaichou thought about that already and asked Buchou because of that reason.”
When Akeno-san smiled softly, Buchou blushed and grumbled cutely, saying [That makes it sound like I’m just a bad student who always gets help from her friend]
So Sona-kaichou not only looks after her friends well, but she also knows how to use the right person at the right time.
Buchou just sighed and went back to talking to the mermaid.
“Well, I’ll ask Lilitifa some questions. Just answer the questions that you can answer.”
After that, with one hand on the rare case manual, Buchou asked some questions of the mermaid.
Buchou asked questions such as how she is living here after not being able to continue the name, how does she thinks of new government, if she had any inconvenience or dissatisfaction living here, so on and so forth. And Akeno-san is noting down the answers given by the mermaid, it seems like she wanted protection from the current government. Irina also is taking note. Is she going to give it to the Heaven? When we got to the [Anything that she is worried about] question, mermaid, Lilitifa-san’s cute face suddenly got darker.
Noticing the change, Buchou asked her softly.
“It’s alright; you can talk to me about it.”
When Buchou spoke in kind voice, Lilitifa-san opened her mouth.
“…Umm…. Actually… I’m getting threats from a scary person…”
She spoke hesitantly. What?! There’s a bad guy who dares to threaten someone this cute?!
“Scary person? That’s…”
Buchou was about to ask for more, but suddenly, dark shadows appeared and… formed a fog.
…what is this? I can feel some aura.
Seeing the fog Lilitifa-san’s body trembled, saying […No] with her voice.
“…Smells fishy.”
Koneko frowned and pinched her nose. Fishy? When I heard her say that and thought about it for a second, I heard some weird noise.
Kyoooooooo… squawking noises echoed around the area here.
[Mermaid of Vepar, finally found you.]
With a terrifying voice, what showed up from the fog was… a gigantic ship!
W-W-Woah… it’s a gigantic battle ship! Pirate ship? No, ghost ship?! A posh looking battle ship anchored near the rocks.
“I am Captain Gregg!”
Shouting from the head of the ship, the person in the pirate costume was…an ugly giant! His face looks like some kind of ugly fish! Judging by the fins that come out of his face and under his hat, he looks like a monkfish? He has an eye patch on his left eye, and he had a cutlass on one of his hand.
For his Jolly Roger, instead of skull…. Magic circle! Seeing the circle, Kiba muttered.
“…Forneus.”
Hearing him, Buchou nodded her head.
“Yes, looking at the Magic Circle, it seems like them. One of the High Class Devils, the House of Forneus.”
“Another High Class Devil?!”
I’m surprised! Forneus…! If my memory serves me correctly, Forneus is one of the 72 Pillars, just like Buchou! We are meeting with a lot of 72 Pillar House members!
Woah, This type of Monster devil is new to me! I knew that monster devils does exist, but everyone around me all look like human!
Monster pirate… Forneus stood with the people in crew uniform that looked like his subordinates and shouted in a commanding voice.
“Did you people intentionally messed around in this area even knowing this area is an area owned by the House of Forneus?! Sensing your aura, you guys seem to be Devils like us.”
Even when knowing we are Devils as well, he didn’t change his attitude. But after having heard his subordinates, his expression changed.
“Captain! From their auras, they must be High Class Devils!”
Looking at Buchou’s crimson hair, Forneus narrowed his red glowing eyes.
“Hmmmm. Crimson hair…..A person from Gremory… I do beg your pardon, representative of House of Gremory. I am from the House of Forneus, Gregg Forneus.”
It seems like the name of Gremory comes in handy at times like this. That monster captain’s attitude became softer. Buchou, noticing the shift in mood, also returned the greeting.
“It’s pleasure to meet you, Gregg Forneus. As you said, I’m Rias Gremory of the House of Gremory.”
Hearing that, Forneus snorted.
“I’m sorry to inform you but that mermaid is a person we’ve been searching for. I’m sorry to interrupt you in the middle of your conversation but won’t you give her to us? I will finally make her part of my peerage Kukuku”
While Buchou was having an important conversation, he spouts nonsense like that. Not only that, he also let out a laugh that sounds nothing less than evil. Such a wicked laugh! He must have other plans for her! He can’t fool a pervert like myself!
“……………..I’m scared.”
Lilitifa-san hid behind Buchou’s back. Seeing her reaction, we can see who she was talking about when discussing who was threatening her, it must be this monster.
Protecting Lilitifa-san, Buchou made a frown.
“What are you saying all of a sudden… I heard that the House of Forneus is well-versed in ocean life, and gives great names to ocean creatures but, I guess there’s an exception. I think I get the reason why Sona asked me instead of the House of Forneus, who owns the area there.” Buchou sighed, looking at deplorable situation.
Even I got the feeling. Instead of asking the person from House of Forneus, who owns the area around here, asking Buchou would be safer for this mermaid. Even now, mermaid-san is scared of the ugly monster.
By the way, if you own the area around the sea, I wonder what kind of jobs you get. It seems like there are lots of islands here, do they make contract with the people from the island? Or maybe just like pirates they are doing some bad things around here.
Hearing Buchou’s words, furious Forneus showed his fangs.
“Oi, this bitch, just when I was going easy on her…! Do you have the right to invade into other’s territory and have that kind of attitude…! I thought that only your breasts were big, but your ego is as equally large as one!”
“……..”
Hearing Forneus’s words Buchou was still smiling but…Aura enveloping Buchou’s body became more and more visible! Ara?! I can feel her anger building up from her aura?!
After being given nickname ‘switch princess’, she was sensitive when it came to discussions about her breasts! Forneus has just touched on the switch that must not be approached!
“Captain, Captain!” One of his subordinates approached him.
“My underling, what is going on?”
“T-That person is that famous Rias Gremory from House of Gremory! Younger sister of M-Maou Sirzech-sama!”
Having been surprised from hearing that, Forneus pointed his finger at us.
“What?! Younger sister of Maou-sama?! That person who said to contain unidentified power in her breasts….!”
“Captain! T-They are famous for not only having beaten the Old-maou faction, but also the God from Northern Europe, it’s “Sekiyuutei & Switch Princess, and their 7 lively comrades + α ”!”
W-We are known as such…..
“…….W-What the hell is “Sekiyuutei & Switch Princess, and their 7 lively comrades + α ”………?!”
B-Buchou was saying that while grinding her teeth and her body trembled! S-she’s mad! Mad Buchou’s really scary!
“Is + α me?”
“You must be, you do hang around with us a lot Irina."
Pointing at herself, Irina tilted her head sideways and asked Xenovia. Well, you must be the one.
Forneus suddenly changed his attitude and said
“…That kind of celebrity is trying to snatch my pray huh.”
“…snatch? You must be joking. We are simple just trying to protect this person of the House of Vaper since it seemed like some suspicious people are targeting her. Besides that! I’ve been quiet for the last few minutes and you guys kept saying ‘switch’ multiple times! Are you guys saying that my breasts are some kind of Sekiyuutei Growth switch or something?!” Buchou said in extremely displeased tone.
B-Buchou exploded! Buchou, even when they didn’t say such a thing!
“We have already our eyes on the mermaid of Vaper!”
Forneus shouted with the top of his lungs.
“No way, we are going to protect her!”
Buchou didn’t back down either! Those two glared at each other, there were tension between two families then both sides went into the battle stance……
…..was going to happen but just then.
Large pillar of water came from the sea! W-what’s going on?! Wait! Something came out of the sea!
After summersaulting multiple times in air, the person landed on the rocks was… wearing a crown in his head and wielding a trident in his hand. There was an Old man with a beard wearing fundoshi.
“DO NOT FIGHT AT THE SEAAAAAAAAA!”
That old man shouted with a voice loud enough to be heard from miles away! So loud! My ear’s gone deaf! Others also blocked their ears!
“Who are you?!”
When Forneus pointed his finger at him, Old man in fundoshi spun around his trident and started to laugh!
“Fuhahahahahahaha! Zeus in the heaven, Hades in the hell, and I in the sea! King of the sea! I am guardian of the sea Poseidoooooooooooon!”
“””Poseidon?!’’’’
Hearing the old man, everyone couldn’t believe their ears.
“P-Poseidon-sama?! W-What are you doing in this area?!”
“Fuhahaha! The Sea is my territory! Since there are mass terrorism across different mythologies, isn’t it obvious to at least patrol the area!”
“Patrol by the God himself?!” Both Buchou and I were surprised!
This bearded old man is a god?! Ah, I remember! There was a god like this in ancient Greek mythology. And if I remember correctly, Ddraig also mentioned this in Kyoto as well! The origins of my special move, Triaina… Trident, the weapon of sea god!
S-So this person is Poseidon?! He looks like an ordinary muscular old man in fudoshi!
I-Is my thanks about meeting the real mermaid that called him here?! I-I don’t want to think about it!
“Even gods patrol around for safety! Coincidently I was passing by when I saw bickering between Devils! Don’t fight between comrades! I said don’t!”
Poseidon is swinging his trident around and was being angry at us. Both us and Forneus’s peerage all was astonished at the sudden appearance of the god.
Not only that, Poseidon suddenly nodded his head, and then continued his talk without other’s regard.
“I don’t know the details but you guys are fighting about that mermaid over there right? Okay then! Then why don’t you guys decide the winner using a game like real devils!”
“”Game?!””
Both Buchou and Forneus flinched at those words.
T-That’s… is he talking about rating game? So the winner of the game is able to claim Lilitifa-san?
“We have not yet officially participated in the game so…”
Fundoshi god then pet Buchou’s head excitingly while she was saying that.
“Fuhahahaha! Although you are a Devil girl, you give attention to such small details! You don’t have to nip pick small details like that! The important thing is the battle itself! I, Poseidon will be the judge of this game! Claim this mermaid fair and square with this game! Fuhahahahaha!”
The tension is so high! And aren’t you deciding it yourself without other’s concerns?!
“C-Captain! An unexpected situation has occurred! What should we do?!”
Forneus’s side also seems to be perplexed.
“uuuuuu….! We can’t back out now that Poseidon-sama is here, and we didn’t want to back out from the beginning but…..! Ok fine!”
Seems like Forneus made up his mind as he provoked Buchou.
“Oi, bitch from House of Gremory! Let’s decide who gets the mermaid from House of Vepar by Game!”
Buchou, after being provoked, let out a large sigh and shouted back at him with a determined look on her face.
“Although it seems like this situation has gotten out of hand, I will gladly accept the invitation to the fight! We will definitely protect her! Now, let’s begin the Game!”
It’s been decided just like that!
“…..What’s going to happen to me?”
Seems like Lilitifa-san is getting anxious.
“….Well, everything will be alright in the end.”
Koenko spoke, and then she decided to have her banana that she packed as her snack.
As such, it was decided there would be a game between Gremory and Forneus on a wimp, and Poseidon-sama as a judge!
Part 4
On top of the sea.
We are waiting on top of a yacht that can carry multiple people. In front of us is a gigantic battleship!
After initiating two fields, Poseidon-sama, together with Lilitifa-san, is standing on top of a giant turtle. Next to them is Irina, who is floating next to them with her angel wings out. Since she’s not part of the Gremory servants, she decides to watch this by the side.
“Good luck, everybody!” Irina cheered for us. Yeah yeah, we’ll do our best…..
“When I give the signal, begin the match! The rules are simple! First one to sink loses! Be cautious to not kill each other!” Poseidon-sama explained in an enthusiastic voice.
….The beach holiday that was meant to recoup our lost time during the summer has suddenly turned into another battle. Fufufu, looks like Devils suffer all the time.
“Uuuuu….. I hate the sea…” Gasper, whose body is still not well, is inside a cardboard box at the corner of the yacht. To tell the truth, I don’t think he’s going to be any use today. Koneko is looking after him by continuously fanning him and saying [….Gasper-kun, are you alright?] to him.
“Since my stress was released during the time at the beach, let’s go all out shall we.”
“Ara ara, it seems like we end up fighting wherever we go.”
Xenovia is full of fighting spirit and Kiba is making a bitter smile. The two [Knights] are wielding their swords and are in battle mode in their swimming suits.
“Ah…. It seems like there’s nothing for me to gain from this battle…. I’m worried about my skin condition since the sun is so bright here.”
Rossweisse-san is holding her sun shade and is complaining. I can’t feel any fighting spirit within her at all!
“Fufufu, I wonder how I should destroy that boat.” Akeno-san has a sadistic expression and is making a dangerous smile on her face! It’s been a while since we saw this sadistic side of her!
“Issei-san. What shall I do?” Asia asked me while tilting her head. While petting her head, I said [well, something will happen if we leave it to our offensive team]. As long as the other team isn’t massively strong, it really seems like everything will be fine if we leave it to the offensive team.
Looking at the lack of tension in the Gremory team, Forneus said,
“That big breasts of the House of Gremory! My peers are specialists at battle in the sea! You can turn back if you are scared! Even with those huge breasts of yours, you are only a little girl! Hahahahaha!“
Forneus bravely shouted those words and laughed. Buchou was….. trembling not in fear but in anger! Scary! Her body is emitting an aura that’s condensed with her anger!
“….I will annihilate that fish.”
Hiiiiiiiik! Buchou was making an expression that can only be described as pure anger! Her crimson hair was waving around with aura also coming out of her body!
“Issei!”
“Y-Yes!”
“Don’t go easy on them! Get into Balance Breaker and shoot them with your gigantic Dragon Shot!”
“Yes ma’am!”
I had no choice but to reply as such! Whatever, I don’t care anymore! Like Rossweisse-san, I’m not really up for this fight but, for that cute mermaid-san to be defiled by that monster, I can’t allow that as a perverted student!
“Let’s just shatter them into pieces!”
As soon as I get pumped up, Poseidon-sama shouts in loud voice.
“Begin~!”
As soon as Poseidon-sama gave his signals, cannon balls are blasted out of the canons on the battleship loudly! Landing on the water near our yacht, the cannon balls made huge water pillars.
“Shooting cannon balls at us…?! Yuuto, Xenovia! Charge forward!”
As Buchou give out orders as such, two of them replied [Yes] and open their Devil wings and fly straight towards the battleship! Through creating shockwaves with their swords, they begin to destroy the opponent’s ship! Buchou also deploy destructive magic balls toward the ship.
With loud noises being heard, the ship is slowly getting destroyed! The ship mast is being broken easily and Jolly Roger is getting worn down!
“Noooooo! My precious Flying Dutchman!”
Forneus seems to be so surprised at the destruction of his ship that it seems like his eyes seems is about to pop out.
“Damn them! Get rid of them!”
Forneus pointed at Kiba and Xenovia with his cutlass with his servant Devils then put forward their hands.
“Water! Become a snake and bite them into shreds!”
