Instant Death [DxD]

Chapter 27: Chapter 27



After greeting Shiina, Xander handed her a box that was full of food, "Here, I made you breakfast" Xander said while handing her the box which she immediately took, afraid that someone might steal it from her, like a salivating Misaki on her side. "Nee, Mashiron! Give me some~" Misaki started acting coyly to Shiina while asking for food. "No" Shiina immediately refused as she guarded the lunch box with her hand. Misaki turned towards Xander with begging eyes but immediately broke when she saw Xander shaking his head.

Shiina started eating the content on the box while Misaki could only stare at her. Xander sat beside Shiina and asked what he came here for. "By the way, Shiin-" Xander was cut off by Shiina staring at him. "Mashiro" Shiina said with a rare serious look on her eyes. "What?" Xander asked. "Call me..Mashiro" Shiina demanded Xander as he sighed. "You've gotten quite pushy huh? Understood, Mashiro" Xander said while patting her head making Mashiro smile in satisfaction.

Mashiro gestured to Xander to continue what he was asking before. "Right, How is your progress with the illustrations? Have you reach a wall and can't proceed?" Xander asked concern about Mashiro's drawing, wondering if she has any problem. "No, I finished it" Mashiro plainly said as if it's not a problem at all. Xander was stunned at first but immediately recalled that Mashiro is already an expert in this path.

Xander stared at Mashiro before shaking his head. "Can I see the finish work?" Xander asked while Mashiro nodded she was about to stand up but was stopped by Xander. "You can finish your breakfast first, I wouldn't mind waiting" Xander said while Mashiro sat down in the chair and continued eating her breakfast. "Xander-kun, did you come here just to check on Mashiron's progress?" Misaki asked as she couldn't take it anymore, being ignored by the two.

Xander tilted his head and then said "Nope, I just finished the last volume of the book and was hoping for Mashiro to read it and draw the illustrations" Xander said making the two girls raise their heads and look at him. "You finished it?! Can I read it?!" Misaki said while getting close to him. "Xander, let me read" Mashiro also said while pushing Misaki out of Xander's personal space. "You two... Mashiro finish your breakfas- ah, why did you eat it fast, what if you choke? Here" Xander handed the manuscript to the two of them making them take a victory pose.

They started reading the book seriously while Xander took the rice from Mashiro's cheek and ate it. Seeing that they were like in trance, Xander took some drawing tools from his Storage and started drawing the chapter 2 of Gotoubun no Hanayome. By the time the two finished reading, Xander also finished his drawing, quite fast if he may say so. They woke up in their trance and immediately went to Xander's side. "That was good!" Misaki said while Mashiro nodded indicating that she loved it too. "I can see why you made that ending, if it was me writing this, I would have made it like this too" Misaki complimented how Xander made the ending.

Xander smiled at Misaki's words as he looked at Mashiro and asked. "So, do you want to draw it Mashiro?" Mashiro immediately nodded her head after hearing that, she is already pumped and wanted to draw right now. Xander saw that Mashiro is rather excited about drawing so he let her go to her room to start drawing which Mashiro accepted immediately. She ran upstairs and went to her desk, she took her tools and started.

Xander started relaxing in the chair when he suddenly sensed that something is happening in the Kuoh Gakuen, he used Clairvoyance and saw many magicians, fallens and devils preparing to attack the school grounds. 'Khaos Brigade? Why are they trying to attack Kuoh? Oh its for that huh? Information really spread fast' Xander thought for a moment then arriving at the reason for the Khaos Brigade to attack Kuoh Gakuen, 'Sona' to be precise.

Xander observed that they are just canon fodder that has the ability to take the Rias Peerage, they probably didn't take their presence too seriously since they were just weak devils even though they have powerful siblings. They also brought a lot of them maybe thinking that something might go wrong, well they are not wrong. Something would definitely happen when they didn't know that Sona and her Peerage are already stronger most of the members of Khaos Brigade.

In the Student Council room at Kuoh Academy, one of Sona's servants suddenly stopped moving, she was looking at the air with blank look on her face. It is Kusaka Reya who used her Clairvoyance, she often use this skill to practice it and widen its range, but now she sensed something large approaching their school at 500km away. The other members were used to her staring at the air so they just ignored it and kept working.

Reya stopped her Clairvoyance as she turned to the other members with serious look on her face. "What's wrong, Reya?" Tsubaki noticed the seriousness in her eyes as she asked this question. "A large army is coming here, target is probably Kuoh Academy" Reya informed them while the others got alerted by what they heard. "Their level?" Sona asked simply as she also started to think what reason they came here. "I think they are at Rias-sama's level" Reya thought for a moment then said, making all the members lower their guard for a second before they raised it again.

Understimating enemy is the worse thing to do in a battle, they remembered Xander's words when they being trained by him. That doesn't mean that they doubt Reya's observation, but some unknown variable might suddenly appear and would just destroy them, that would be bad. "Momo, raise the barrier of the school into maximum output" Sona ordered as Momo nodded her head and immediately did just that. "Let's meet them at the gate, don't kill anyone yet, wait for my instructions, we need to know why they are attacking this place" the members nodded at Sona's words.

They took their gears, Tomoe took her katana that Xander specially made to withstand her skills in swordsmanship, even though she can cut them with just her fingers, insurance would never hurt. Tsubaki also took her Naginata that was made in a special metal, durable and sharp. They went outside where they waited for the enemy to appear, of course they didn't forget to hypnotize the students to make them go home, unnecessary death of students are not needed.

They were now ready, barrier is so strong because Momo used all of her powers to raise its defensive capabilities. They waited until the enemies finally appeared, the enemies were surprised when they saw them waiting, and also alerted, because they thought that Sona might have call reinforcement. "How did you know were coming!?" The leader figure of the enemies asked while pointing at Sona's group. "It's obvious, you were too loud" Tomoe said mockingly making the enemies pissed. "Tomoe, behave yourself, we need to know about their intentions first before fighting them" Sona said sternly making Tomoe apologized while glaring at the army.

The leader was pissed when he saw Sona and Tomoe chatting calmly as if they were no threat. "Are you.. mocking us!?" The leader said while the others started flaring their aura. "Oh, that was rude, now where was we again? Right, state the reason you are here" Sona realized how unprofessional she were and asked while fixing her image. "You.. you're really mocking us!? Anyway, the target revealed itself from our view, capture her!" The army flew towards the school but ultimately failed when they got stuck on a barrier.

Rias and her peerage suddenly felt a turmoil in the barrier, so they went alert, Rias ordered her group to look for Sona. They might be being attacked right now, so she thought. They arrived at the Student Council Room and saw it was empty, so Rias just used her magic to look for Sona and saw her at the entrance of the gate. They immediately went towards it and saw Sona being lost in thought while her team waiting for her instructions. Rias was about to call her when she suddenly saw many enemies flying outside the barrier trying to break it.

"Sona! What's happening!? Who are they?" Rias asked as Sona slowly raised her head finishing her thoughts. "I think they are here for me and Xander. They were probably looking for informations about Xander as Xander gave something to my Father that is so precious, and all they know is someone Xander is important to me cause my family protected his informations" Sona explained to Rias who was dumbfounded by what she heard. "You already introduced Xander to your family?" She asked quite surprise by Sona's action.

Sona arranged her glasses as she replied with a light blush on her face embarassed by her rival's stare "Yes, I already introduced him to my parents and sister" Rias was even more shocked by what she heard, if its just Sona's parents then she wouldn't be surprised but she also introduced him to Serafall? "Xander..is he still alive?" Rias couldn't help but ask thinking that Xander might be already an ice. Sona couldn't help but narrow her eyes at Rias "That's rude, of course he is" Sona replied while turning her attention to the army.

Rias saw Sona turned her head towards the enemies as she also remembered that they were here too. She saw that the enemies were strong but they still couldn't make a dent in the barrier so she asked. "Sona, what happened to the barrier? This is not how it was before is it?" Sona raised an eyebrow as she replied "No, Momo is the one handling the barrier right now" Rias turned her head towards the white hair girl who just smiled at her and bowed her head.

Rias shook her head as she couldn't help but feel jealous at Sona since Xander took notice of her first. If she was the one Xander liked then her peerage might be super strong now. "Excuse me, can I ask for your organization's name?" Sona asked the leader who is using all of his powers trying to break the barrier. "What the hell is this!? We need to finish this fast before reinforcement appears!" The leader ordered as the various races started to attack the barrier without holding back.

Sona nodded her head at Momo's mastery of Barrier magic, even this much power force couldn't make a crack in her barrier. Momo as if feeling Sona's thoughts smiled happily, she can finally be in use of her King. "Tsubaki, try their durability using your powers" Sona instructed as Tsubaki obeyed, she raised her hand and punched it. Rias and her members were shocked by what they are seeing, the sky above the army started cracking, they can feel power from that crack, and it left them slack jawed when they saw the enemies's body breaking as if they were in the middle of a earthquake.
