And with that... I'm a fifth of the way to my interdimensional goals.

Should I just go ahead and liquidate like a couple dozen million Lillum to get the remaining eight hundred thousand?

Nah. I have time.

If I don't have enough by the time Kokabiel comes around, I'll start liquidating some assets.

[Split]

"So, Valerie, how have you been?" I slowly ask.

"Oh! I have been wonderful, Gaius." The dhampir smiles.

Our position is... quite compromising, but it's as if she doesn't even notice it.

Valerie is straddling my lap, facing me, she has one of my hands shoved under her shirt and nestled in between her breasts.

Ravel had been... surprised... when Valerie casually slipped my hand under her shirt one day, but after a short explanation her exact words were. 'I believe you. I can sense some sort of strange energy from the back of your hand. Even if I didn't believe you there's not much I could do.'

"Have you been training?"

"I have... a little." The girl slowly nods.

"Good. The sooner you become strong. The sooner you can kiss this basement goodbye and live your life freely."

She smiles wistfully as she gazes at the wall past me. "That sounds wonderful."

She shakes her head slightly. "The problem is that I haven't grown all that much stronger... not enough to really matter in the grand scheme of things."

"Hn, is that so." I mutter slowly.

I fall silent for a moment, quietly wondering how I could help my Queen.

'oh. That may just work.'

"I might... have a small shortcut to power." I begin slowly.

"Really?!" The girl gasps with wide eyes.

Her arms wrap around my shoulders. "Thank you! Y-you're always so nice and always helping me... it... is nothing like back home..."

I give her a kind smile. "Of course, I'd help you, Valerie. I deeply care about you."

She flinches back as a blush crosses her face. "W-Well. What is this thing you wanted to try."

"Drink my blood." I command.

Her eyes widen slightly. "Wh- wait what?"

"Drink. My. Blood. Vampires get extraordinary strength by drinking the blood of strong creatures, it'll be less effective as a Dhampir, but you should still get SOMETHING out of it."

"I see... uh... alright. I'll give it a try." The girl mutters. "I h-hope I don't hurt you... it's my first time doing something like this."

I feel her press her lips on my neck and in the next moment, there's a small jabbing pain. Not as bad as I thought it would have been to be completely honest.

If she gains more control over her sacred gear because of this, I'm all for it.

"Mhhnn!" She moans, she squirms in my lap, slowly grinding on my crotch.

I guarantee she has no idea she's doing it. But that doesn't mean I can't enjoy it.

I drum my fingers on the small table beside the chair I am sat in as I feel her tongue gently lap at the two small wounds she created.

'Five. Four. Three. Two. One.'

The girl suddenly stiffens, freezing in place, lips still pressed against my neck.

She flinches back, nearly falling out of my lap entirely, but by wrapping a hand around her back I stop her from collapsing to the floor.

"Careful now." I state slowly.

"I-I-I am SO sorry, Gaius I-I didn't know what came over me, u-uh p-please forget anything I did to you while sucking your blood." The girl meekly states.

"It's fine." I shrug, bringing my hand up to my neck after she stabilizes.

Fire crackles in my hand as I press it to my hand, my wound is healed completely in a matter of seconds.

"Do you feel stronger?"

"I-"

She pauses and stares at the wall.

She slowly gets up and looks to her hands, my own sliding out from under her shirt. "W-Wow."

"I don't feel any strain from my sacred gear." She whispers.

As I stand a grin crosses the girls' face, she lunges forwards and wraps her arms around me. "It WORKED!"

"Are you ready to test some things out?" I slowly ask as I awkwardly pat the girl's back.

"Yeah! And it's not only my sacred gear that feels stronger, I feel stronger as well!"

She steps back and unleashes her demonic power.

"Well." I breathe with wide eyes. "That's an improvement."

I just made her ultimate class... in mere seconds I brought someone from the middle of high class devil, all the way to medium Ultimate Class.

A smile crosses my face as several large orbs of shadow are summoned around her, they quickly disappear as she hops once, easily clearing ten feet and landing roughly on the ground.

"This is awesome!" She cheers

"Do you want to try using your sacred gear?" I slowly ask.

She nods once with a smile. "I don't even hear the oppressive voices anymore! Even when you were-"

She pauses and looks down at her bust. "Uh- even when I was... Syphoning power... from your hand, they were whispering to me. But now they are completely gone!"

She closes her eyes and with a warm glow, three floating chalices appear around her in a triangle pattern, slowly circling her. Her eyes crack open. "I... can't even hear them like this?"

"I'm free!" She exclaims with a massive grin. "Gaius! I-I can't hear them!"

She lets out a quiet laugh as she looks to the three grails slowly circling her. "I... never thought that I would be this free again."

"Do you know your powers?" I ask suddenly as I slowly circle her.

"Uh... I can heal people, that was all I was ever able to do recently... with keeping my mind intact, of course." The girl slowly explains.

"Your health is my number one priority." I agree.

"Well... uh... I can vaguely remember being used to make my family resistant to the sun? And I remember reviving a lesser vampire so he could make a report."

"So what you're saying is... my peerage is basically immortal as long as you have your sacred gear?"

"Uh... well... your soul has to be undamaged for that to work, and, well, I do remember it messing with my mind a lot. It rendered me comatose for at least a couple of days."

"Hn, let's not do that. I'd rather not force you to hurt yourself like that."

"O-Okay."

"Is there anything else you could do?"

"Uh." The girl blinks. "I'm not sure?"

"I heard that Sephiroth Grall can also De-Age someone... and make copies of sacred gears."

"Wh- really?!"

I summon the boosted blade into my hand and hold it out. "Try and copy this."

"You... have a sacred gear?"

"Yep. I took it in exchange for saving someone's life." I shrug.

"But... wouldn't that kill them?" She whispers.

"Nah, I used a special method. That pervert is still in Kuoh doing what he does best... getting detention for sexual harassment." I hum.

She slowly approaches the blade and looks over it. "I... will try it out, then."

The three grails float in front of her and begin slowly circling the sacred gear.

She sharply inhales, bringing a hand to her head as she falls to her knees, I crouch before her as she looks up at me and tilts her head, a hollow smile on her face. "I... my head... loud."

I dispel the boosted blade, reach under her shirt and use my other hand to pick her up, guiding her to the bed where I sit down and place her on my lap.

I tilt my head, exposing my neck. "Drink."

"Hm?"

"Drink my blood." I command.

"Oh. Okay."

Her teeth sink into my neck once more.

Copying sacred gears was too much for her, clearly. I'll keep that in mind for the future.

'Of course it was! She was trying to copy ME! Not some meager twice critical.'

'er... yeah.'

[Split]

"Rias. It's been a while." I smile.

"Where. Did. You. Get. The. Cake." She demands as she leans over the desk, eyes inches from my own.

"Pardon?"

"Where did you get the cake?!" She hisses under her breath.

"My garden?" I blink slowly.

She stares for a long moment then gets off my desk. "I see."

She cups her chin and seems to be thinking deeply on something.

I look past her to Koneko, she's staring at me with an incredible intensity.

The white-haired girl calmly walks around the desk.

She stares into my eyes.

I stare into hers. It's a little sad she isn't that much taller than me while I am sitting down. Maybe a foot or so.

"I'll have sex with you if you give me more cake." She announces.

"KONEKO?!" Rias shrieks.

"You... don't really need to go that far. You could have just like... asked?" I reply easily.

"Can I have cake?" She asks in the deadpan tone she normally has.

"The fruit I used for the icing is still growing right now, but I can give you incredible amounts of the actual cake.

"Mn. Okay." The girl replies.

"I'll be right back." I sigh.

[Split]

My eyes crack open slowly.

I go to wipe my eyes, but I stop myself before I can move.

Oh. Right.

I look to my right to see Ravel, still fast asleep, the blanket covering us seems to have slipped down in the night, allowing me to see her sizable bust with little rosy pink nipples. Her body is pressed against mine, a small smile on her face.

I look to left to see Valerie, about in the same dress as Ravel. No shirt. No bra. Merely panties.

She isn't even clinging to my hand. I have it wrapped around her back as she uses me as a massive pillow.

My draconic aura got her. Plus, the hits of pleasure she got every time she drank my blood basically just positively reinforced 'Gaius Good'. 'Love Gaius'.

She also has the boosted gear's data copied... but she hasn't been able to do anything with it quite yet.

Primarily from lack of trying, as we both decided that if merely copying the thing caused this much strain, actually creating it may just kill her. Not that we know how to create the copied sacred gears, of course.

I've also recently found out that I am incredibly persuasive.

Valerie was going to originally sleep with clothes on, but with a simple 'Ravel and I are just sleeping like this, why don't you as well' she crumbled immediately.

But it has been a fair bit of time since I have allowed Valerie to drink my blood. I've deemed her strong enough to live outside of her little room- with the stipulation that she carries summoning fliers for literally all of my peerage.

I see Virgo quietly enter the room, her hands in her lap.

She locks eyes with me and bows her head, quietly whispering something as to not wake the two girls in my arms. "Master. Something has come up in the human world."

"Hn?" I hum.

"Nhhh." Ravel weakly groans as she shifts in my grasp.

Valerie's breath catches slightly as she continues to sleep.

"Le Fay was attacked by a Stray Exorcist."

My eyes narrow, both of the girls in my arms flinch abruptly, snaping awake at the pure killing intent I am generating.

"What?" I hiss.

The two blondes in my arms rapidly look around the room, trying to spy the danger.

"She was completely unharmed. But the exorcist got away... after killing her contractor."

"…"

"I see." I slowly state as I sit up, freeing myself from the clutches of Valerie and Ravel.

"Ravel, Valerie, I'm going to Kuoh to kill someone. I'll see you later." I snarl as I step out of bed and summon some clothing.

"Please. Don't wait up."

A Quest has been received!

[Split]

With a flash, I appear in my Kuoh mansion, Arthur is standing nearby with his arms crossed, he looks over, and I can tell he's not amused.

"Arthur." I nod. "I had assumed someone wouldn't try to start something in the place the two younger siblings of the Maou resides, but it appears I have made a mistake. One I'm not repeating."

"Did Le Fay tell you the details about her attacker?" I slowly ask.

"A man. White hair, red eyes, curses like a sailor."

"A stray exorcist with white hair and red eyes, hn? Sounds like a Sigurd." I note as I slowly walk to the door.

"A 'Sigurd'?" The man questions as he slowly follows behind me.

"The church has a certain program where they genetically alter orphans, trying to create the perfect clone of Sigurd."

"…"

I can feel him staring at the back of my head, but I move on without elaborating on the orphan super soldier program.

"There is one Sigurd that I recall that was kicked out of the church for being too violent. he called himself Freed Sellzen. If I had to take an educated guess about where he is, I'd say he's probably at that abandoned church at the edge of town. And normally entering a place of God as a devil would be an international incident. But seeing as how it is abandoned, I'm going to walk through the fucking front door."

I snap my fingers and suddenly we are elsewhere, both of us forcefully teleported half way across the town.

The early morning sun steadily makes its way over the mountains in the distance as I slip my hands in my pockets.

Arthur clenches his fists.

"So." I slowly state. "If we find the bastard... who puts the rabid animal down? I have a right to do it as he attacked someone in my peerage, but... family supersedes the peerage bond."

"Rabid... animal?" The Pendragon mutters.

"Oh yeah. This guy is the worst. He has a bit of a history. He absolutely mutilates any devil he finds, stray or not, those too strong, he flees from. If you even look at a devil's summoning circle, that's enough for him to call you a heretic and torture you to death. Hell, sometimes he doesn't even make an excuse and just murders and rapes for fun. If you don't do it. I will. He dies today."

"I... will do it." He slowly states as an old rickety looking church comes into view.

"Oh. Alright." I slowly state. "If- no... when he attacks me. Don't bother protecting me. It doesn't matter what he does. Cut an arm off, stab me through the chest, slice off my head, I'll be absolutely fine. I'll regenerate in mere moments. And that's only if he even manages to hurt me."

I can hear voices beyond the door. "Shut the FUCK up you diminutive bitch!"

"OH? And if I don't?! What are you going to do?! Swing that little light sword around, call me naaames? Ugh. You are pathetic. Why don't you go mutilate a puppy or whatever sick shit you're into and get out of my sight you disgusting waste of life. Honestly, I don't get why that bitch Raynare is keeping you around. You're doing the one thing we were told not to do. Bother the devils."

"I'LL FUCKING END-"

I approach the door and calmly raise a foot.

*CRASH*

My heel smashes into the door handle, causing the dry-rotted wood to snap violently, it is flung off the hinges and clatters to the ground a short distance away.

Inside I see two things.

The first, a man in priestly robes, a mad glint in his eye as he glares at the other figure in the room.

On the other side of the room, I see a short, petite, blonde girl with blue eyes wearing a frilly maid dress with white stockings, she appears to be painting her fingernails almost lazily as she sits atop a broken statue, far out of reach of the priest who has a light sword drawn and a gun in his hand.

The two's eyes snap over to look at the door as I calmly walk further into the room.

"So. It seems I was right." I slowly state as my eyes stray from the priest to the fallen above.

Events are happening far sooner than they did in the anime... I would have normally had at least a year and a half to prepare for this. Perhaps I should speed up my project.

"Ohohoho if it isn't a shitty devil!" The exorcist cackles.

"You're-" the blonde atop the statue begins only to cut off with a sharp inhale.

With a flash three more figures appear in the room, the first, a fedora and trench coat wearing man, the second, a woman with long blue hair, wearing a purple button up coat with the top three buttons remaining unbuttoned to show off her sizable bust. She has a matching miniskirt that goes barely past the thighs.

The final is a woman that is practically just wearing a black bikini.

Black feathered wings protrude from the back of the three as they are all on guard.

"I'm going to cut you up!" The priest cackles as he lifts a gun.

With a flick of my hand he is flung through the air. It's as if I were a jedi and I used the force to toss him aside. He crashes roughly through a pew that splinters and cracks as I look to the fallen up above.

"Why have you come here?!" The fedora wearing man snarls as the small blonde fallen on the statue floats up into the air with two black feathered wings. "Are you aware that this could cause a war?!"

"Oh, I'm aware. It's just that I don't necessarily care. This is merely a retaliatory strike. It's quite simple, actually. You are in Kuoh without my permission, your pet priest attacked one of my peerage members... and I don't take kindly to potential threats."
