Chapter 1 - Chapter 1;Plenty

A young Issei was sound asleep in his bed as one night he was awoken by a loud noise. He got out of his bed to see what was going on.

As he walked down the stairs he was rubbing his eyes only to see his father lying in a pool of blood. He ran down the stairs latched onto his father as he started crying.

"So there is a third one. " A voice came from the darkness "Oh well he's not going to be a problem, unlike the woman.

"

Issei felt cold as his vision faded to black as his body slumped over his father's.

"Wake up. " A female voice called out.

Issei shot up from his sleep as he saw an older woman with braided grey hair wearing a blue and white maid outfit. She tossed a towel to him and said, "You were crying in your sleep.

"

Issei wiped his face off as he looked at the woman "I was having that dream again. Why are you here Grayfia?"

"Do you want to talk about it?" She asked Issei as he got up from the bed as he was in a T-shirt and boxers.

"There's only so much therapy you can get from a dragon that lives inside of you and that saint. " He looked at Grayfia as he threw the towel back at her "So again why are you here?" He asked her now with a more determined voice looking for an answer.

"Lord Lucifer has a need for your skills. " She handed Issei a piece of paper with magical runes all over it.

"And this is an unofficial job. "

"Nothing is ever official with devils, that's just how it goes. " He held the paper up and looked at all the runes.

"So what does he want dealt with?"

"His sister Rias Gremory is in need of a savior. " Grayfia's words triggered something inside of Issei when she said that.

"Explain. "

Grayfia nodded "She is due to be wed to Riser Phenex in about half an hour. And Lord Lucifer isn't exactly happy about it.

" Grayfia wasn't too thrilled to talk about it.

"Is she okay with the marriage?"

"No, she is not. It was arranged by her father Lord Gremory many years ago.

And Riser's attitude since then has soured. He even turned into a womanizer as the power and ego went to his head.

"

"A harem huh always wondered what one of those would be like to have. " Issei walked over to the closet that was open, he grabbed ahold of the door and closed it then funned some magic into the handle.

Once he opened it the contents inside had changed as he grabbed clothes from it and was getting dressed. "Are you aware that I am friends with her?" He asked Grayfia as he was getting dressed.

"She asked if anybody could tell if you had a supernatural connection. But we told her that you were human.

Considering that you're not in her peerage she must still think that your human. "

"Yes, it's not as she could reincarnate me anyway. " He grabbed a black cloak and closed the door.

"Shall we go?"

"Yes I will be headed back and during the ceremony, I will be by my master's side. All you need to do is crash the party.

" Grayfia prepared a magic circle as she was getting ready to leave before she placed a box on his desk.

"I hope you pull the stick out your ass one-day Grayfia and call him your husband. " Issei watched her teleport off leaving him alone.

He walked over to his desk as he grabbed his phone and swiped on the screen. Once the phone was unlocked he went into his text messages as he found an entry called A.

P. and started typing awhile.

Placing a hand on his desk he left a magic circle on the desk. With that dealt with, he stuck his phone in his pocket and donned his cloak putting the hood up as he activated the runes on the paper as he was transported away.

When he reappeared on the other side he was in a large drafty hallway with a ceiling that reached over thirty feet from the ground. As he walked down the hallway he heard noises coming from the other side of a large door and knew this was where the magic was about to begin.

The door was massive and made of metal so he placed his right hand on the door and summoned flames as he sent them crashing into the door.

Meanwhile inside there was a large party going on as Grayfia stood next to Lucifer as she whispered in his ear "The preparations have been set and he is here as the paper was activated. "

Lucifer looked at Grayfia "Then where is he?" He asked her as the temperature in the room spiked from a warm day to a hot desert summer afternoon in a matter of moments. "So that's how he's going to deal with this.

"

Plenty of the party guests started sweating in their Suits and dresses as the temperature kept rising as it was getting unbearable. "Did you Phoenix's forget that the rest of us don't take too well to extreme heat?" One of the older party guests called out getting the attention of the head of the clan.

"I am quite aware and we are doing nothing to cause this rise in temperature. I have already asked one of the maids if the other rooms are hotter than usual and so far it's just this room.

So it must be an outside source. " He tried to reassure the crowd but his words meant little to nothing to them.

"Lord Phenex," Lucifer called out getting his attention as Lucifer pointed at the door. "I think that's your problem.

"

Everybody looked at the door as it was glowing red as a large chunk of it fell down slamming on the ground as cooler air rushed into the room. In walked a figure draped in black showing no visible features.
