Bloodlines Are That Important Still???

Jao and Zechs Stood Before Each Other. "I Have Decided That I Have No Place For A Maverick, No More Than Rias." Says Zechs. "Yeah, But Outright **** Isn't Your Style, So What Do You Want?" Asks Jao. "You Are One Of The Few Descendants Of The Old Satans Not To Be Automatically Hostile, Yet As My Pawn You Are Obligated To Follow My Orders, So I Propose A Trade, Treat Rias With Respect and At Least Consider Her Commands and I'll Register You As A King." Says Zechs. "Hehe, I Am Know I'm A Luci and All, But There's A Whole Lot More Left Unsaid Isn't There? Your Planning A Peace Summit Aren't You? That's Why Michael and Azazel Didn't Push Back Against The Choice I Made Isn't It?!" Says Jao. "Frankly That Is Part Of It, But What We Really Need Is The Publicity. When Ajuka Created The Evil Pieces System The Old Satan Faction Refused To Use Them, Finding The Idea Of Reincarnating Humans and Other Species Into Devils Repulsive and Atrocious, If We Can Show A Descendant Of The Old Satans, Especially A Lucifer Using The Very System His Brethren Eschewed, It Would Demoralise The Army Of Malcontents That's Growing Increasingly Bold." Says Sirzechs.

"You Mean The Khaos Brigade? Yeah I Know Them, Did A Couple Of Jobs For Them, When It Was Over Told To Fuck Off and Never Contact Me Again. They Ignored My Warning Of Course, and After Gutting So Many Of Their Messengers Sent The Hero Faction After My Ass, Took Me A While But I Managed To Get Them Off My Back. Now If I Take This Deal I'm Still Beholden To You, To Rias, But I Get My Own Peerage and A Degree Of Independence? Not A Bad Trade All Things Considered, But I Need The **** Of Freed Sellzen and Only Then Will I Truly Be Willing To Accept A Gremory House Members Orders." Says Jao. "So Be It." Says Sirzechs As He and Jao Shake Hands. "Now Then, I've A Meeting To Get To." Says Jao.

I'd Hoped To Make K My Bishop, But It Would Seem The Presence Of Sirzechs Had Sent Her Scurrying Out Of Town, A Pity, I Would've Liked To Have Seen Her Again. Honestly I Decided To Forgo The Whole Peerage Deal For A Few Years, I Did Get An Interesting Bit Of News Though, A Finely Written Letter With Orange Ink Of Citrus Smell, Clearly The Work Of The Phenex Family, Cordially Inviting Me To The Engagement Party Of Riser Phenex and Rias Gremory. I'd Never Met Riser Personally His Elder Brother Ruaval Was An Old Friend, and Had Given Me The Rundown On Riser's Interest In An All Girl Peerage and His Hope To Steel A Girl From His Fiance's Peerage. Now That Was Something I Could Not Allow, So I Did The Only Thing A Man Of Chivalry and Honor Would and Could, Crashed The Party.......

Jao Dropped In Literally Through The Roof. "The Morning-Star Of The White Dragon Has Arrived." Says Jao, and A Lot Of People Burst Out Laughing and Mocking Him. "Divine Dividing." Says Jao As His Wings Manifest, Shutting Every Single Mouth As A Result. "Hear Phenex House, I Am Jao Van Adaire, Great-Great-Great-Grandson Of The Original Lucifer, My Mother Is The Seraph Gabriel, and My Father The Former Exorcist and Lucifer's Great-Great-Grandson Sir Johan Van Adaire, I Challenge You Riser Phenex, For Rias Gremory." Says Jao. "You Have Divine Dividing, But No Grounds To Challenge Me." Says Riser. "Oh Really, Where's Ruaval, I Haven't Seen Him A Year, Oh and Sirzechs, Please Inform Every One In Earshot The Relevant Details The Deal You Offered Me." Says Jao. "The Kid Is Not Lying, He Is a King, and He Is The Blood Of Our Late Ancestor, and Also Part Of My Peerage!" Says Sirzechs. "Jao, Dramatic Entrance As Usual." Says Ruaval Handing His Friend A Cocktail. "Appreciate The Drink, This The Brandy I Stole For Yer Last Year?" Asks Jao. "Hmm, Last Glass I'm Afraid." Says Ruaval. "Remind Me To Steal More For Both Of Us." Says Jao. "Riser!! You Will Fight The White Dragon!" Came A Stern And Authority Ridden Voice. "Yes, Father." Says Riser. "I Propose In The Interest Of Fairness, We Fight One-On-One, Bare-Handed If Need Be." Says Jao. "Agreed." Says Riser. "I'll Be Outside." Says Jao.

I Realise I Didn't Know Half Of What I Was Fighting, But This Was A Calculated Move, Because Just As The Game Of Chess Brought New Devils Into The Underworld, I Was Playing A Dangerous Gambit With A Similar Chess Piece Here. The King Had Always Been More Important, But As What? A Figurehead? A General? In Strategy A Queen Is A Far More Valuable Target. If You Take The King's Wife You Attack His Emotions, Throw Him Off Balance, You Get Inside His Head, Make Him Believe If You Can Take His Wife, You Can Take His Life. But The True Prize Is Depriving The King Of His Wive's Families Support, Political Alliances Are Commonplace and Depriving A Powerful Family Of A Powerful Alliance Is Far More Profitable Long-Term Than A Simple Ransom. What's More So Long As You Control The Queen, You Control The Kings Marriage, and For All He Knows You Could Have Impregnated Her, Made Her Think She Was On The Wrong Side, and Much More. This Concept Of Attack Is Why I Was Targeting Riser's Marriage, Because While I May Very Well Make An Enemy, I Gain The Reputation Of Beating An Immortal, In Addition To Making Myself A More Attractive Prospect. And In My Former Life, Reputation Was Everything.........

Jao and Riser Stood In Front Of Each Other, Albeit A Fair Distance Away. "Zechs, Promotion?" Asks Jao. "Granted." Says Sirzechs. "Promotion: To Knight!" Says Jao As He Manifests Divine Dividing and Begins To Use The Knight Promotion To Speed Up The Gathering Of Magical and Demonic Energy While Also Using Twice Critical To Double It As Well. "My Turn!" Says Riser As He Sprouts Fire Wings and Lunges Towards Jao, Who Simply Dodges Within A Hairs Breadth Of Touch. But He Does Something Painfully Surprising, He Grips Both Of Riser's Wings and Rips Them Off. "That Fucking Hurt Dammit!!" Says Riser In Pain. "Just Be Glad I Haven't Taken Your Boys You Morally Bankrupt Fried Chicken!" Says Jao As He Proceeds To Grab Hold Of Riser and Use Divide. "What Is This?" Asks Riser. "I'm Taking Your Power Boy! Not All Of It Of Course, But Enough To Turn You Witless For A Wee While." Says Jao While Also Gripping Riser In A Bear Hug, Trying To Drain Him Of Strength, Stamina, and Breath. When The Sacred Gear Reaches It's Limit, He Drops Riser.

"Blessed Are The Righteous, Virtuous Are The Brave, and Fearless Are The Bold. I Who Am Unholy, But Borne Of Light, I Who Am Strong, But Stepped In Conflict, I Who Am Divine, But Drowning In Mortality. I Am He Would Call Forth The Swords Of Divine Punishment and Destruction, I Would Call Forth...........Excalibur!" Shouts Jao As He Summons Excalibur Destruction and Excalibur Nightmare. The Heavens Erupt Into The Underworld As Light Beams Down and Blasts Riser Away.The Holy Aura Causes Jao To Feel Sick, But The Familiar Grip Of Destruction and Nightmare, Steel His Resolve and Harden His stomach. Jao Points Excalibur Destruction At A Statue Of Riser, and A Stream Of Unholy Lightning Destroys It, But Supercharged By Destruction. Jao Advances, Striking and Grating Each Blade Against Each Other and Goes To Deliver The Final Blow, But Halts. "No, No I Gonna Need A Lot More Power. White Dragon You Have My Permission To Up The Ante." Says Jao. "So Be It, White Dragon: Balance Breaker!" Says The Divine Dividing As It Envelopes Him In A Scale Mail Armor "Thank You, Time To Die Riser As Jao Kicks His Foe Into A Wall, Dragging Destruction and Nightmare Across The Pavement While Using Nightmare To Project A Terrifying Vision Of A Thousand White Dragons Trying To Feast On Riser's Flesh Into His Opponents Mind.

Now Prepared, Jao Goes To Deliver The Deathblow But Is **** To Hold back Because Of The The Phenex Lass Entering His Way. "Does The Phenex Not Know Honor? How Disappointing, I Would Strike You Both Down, But That Is Not My Way, So Surrender The Match On His Behalf, Or I'll Swat You Life A Fly and Kill Him." Says Jao. "You Win, The Match and Rias Is Yours." Says Ravel. "Good, For What It's Worth, I'm Sorry About The Medical Bills." Says Jao. "What Medical Bills?" Asks Ravel. "Oh I Think Brother Dearest Is Gonna Need A Councilor After The Nightmare I Implanted In His Brain." Says Jao Earning A Fit Of Laughter From A Few Devils. "Coming Akeno?" Asks Jao As Akeno Joins Him At His Side and Asia and Rias Too. "You Two Coming Or Not?" Jao Asks Yuuto Kiba and Koneko. The Two Join Him and The Girls and Jao Takes To Fingers and Does A Salute Wave To Zechs and The Lady Ravel, Before Using Excalibur To Flash An Image Of Him Buck Naked In The Minds Of The Phenex Girl, The Sitri Girl, and The Female Members Of Her Peerage, Or He Would've But A Delayed Dream Is So Much Less Suspicious As One At The Same Exact Moment.

My Game Had Just Begun, My First Gambit Had Not Yet Proven Successful, Because I Knew That My Desired Goal Was Not Yet Attained, But The Manoeuvre Itself Appeared Successful. I Had One Goal, One Reason Other Thant Annihilating Freed Out Of Existence, I wanted To Live As A Holy Devil Harem King, But I Could No Longer Live As Jao Van Adaire, I Needed A Knew Name, A New Face, and A New Identity, This When I Became Izanaki, Lord Izanaki was Not Yet Born, But I Knew That Once My Goal Was Reached, I Would Have Lint and Irina By My Side Once More.......
