Chapter 24: Jerk face
*Rias POV*
My peerage is fighting the stray devil, I let Issei watch the fight as I introduce each piece they are.
While doing so, I suddenly thought of Yato.
'I wonder what he was doing right now...'
I remember what happened in the Occult club. Thinking about it, it's funny.
He actually has that kind side of him.
'Yaboku...'
I was lost in thought because of that guy, I came back to my senses when Hyoudou Issei shouted.
I look at him and saw he was running at me.
Suddenly, I got goosebumps, I widen my eyes and look behind my back and saw the arm of the stray devil:valer about to attack me.
I notice Issei summon his sacred gear and about to punch the arm, however, before he could even do so...
Swiiiiip!
I felt a sudden gust of wind that made my hair sway to the right, the next thing I saw was the arm that was about to attack me was sliced into three.
I was left dumbfounded, even hyoudou Issei who came back to his senses called me, but I didn't listen.
What just happened is my fault for letting my guard down but...
I look at the place where that attack comes from.
It was just a glimpse but I saw black hair and a black 'jacket'.
"Who...?'
"Gremory senpai! Are you okay?"
I look at Issei still in a daze, until I heard Akeno was laughing.
"Akeno, stop now."
She stops torturing the stray devil.
"We're already done."
She turns her face to me while making a blushing face and places her palm on her cheek.
"That's a bit disappointing"
She said saying disappointed but her expression is different from what comes to her mouth.
I couldn't help but think about the person who saved me.
I can't help but be wary.
After all.
'Someone found us exterminating a stray devil.'
I don't know which race it was, that person might be a devil but...
As I walk enough to get closed to the stray devil: valer.
"Kill me."
We should talk about this later.
"Then I will vanish you."
I said as I stretch my arms sideways, a large magic circle enough to cover my body appeared, dark lightning came as it shot towards the weakened stray devil.
My destruction magic obliterates the stray devil into dust, nothing remains.
I look at everyone full of seriousness and said.
"Everyone, there's someone else with us... Koneko, did you smell something?"
She shake her head and said.
"...no, it's already gone."
"...I see, does that mean you smell it earlier? Why didn't you say it to me."
" I was fighting."
So, that person came when we are fighting the strat devil?
I clicked my tongue due to irritation.
Who is that person?

*Yato POV*
My body moves on its own.
I know this happens in anime, but when I see that giant arm about to attack Rias, My body surpasses my mind, a sword quickly materializes in my arm and I suddenly swung it upward.
What happened afterward was a three that looks like a blade in a crescent shape made of air was created, and it flew towards the giant arm and slice it into three.
Afterward, I look at rias and found out she was okay, I heave a sigh knowing that she was fine.
But then she suddenly look at my spot which I quickly teleported to my home.
I lie on my bed with my eyes is still open.
And then a thought suddenly came.
"The caller gave the address of that place..."
I thought maybe valer was the one who called me and by calling me she can have food easily
However, it could be also another person...
"Who was aware of my existence..."
I hope it's not the latter.
I mean, No one knows me yet, and I don't plan to expose myself, yet.
I'm just staring at the ceiling until a call came in.
I picked up my phone and speak without energy.
"...hello, fast...affordable...reliable...
Delivery god, yato."
"U-um... C-could y-you p-p-please h-help m-me to fixed my l-lights in the l-living r-room?"
"Yes, please give me your address and I shall come."
"I-i see...t-then... M-my address i-is..."
I stand up and came to the bathroom.
I wash my face with a basin to make me awake.
I then teleport to Kuoh town and started walking. Honestly, I could teleport instantly to the person's door but I don't want to surprise the client.
As I keep walking I heard someone calls my name.
The voice is familiar, it's an angelic voice that can tell its innocence the person can make them want to protect her.
Oh, freak...
I turn my head on my back and yeah, it was her.
"Um...good evening... Asia san, how did you know my name?"
She gets closed to me, I could see her determination on befriending me, she was too innocent that she isn't aware of what distance called is.
"Um... I ask Issei kun your name."
She said truthfully albeit shyly.
"Yes, that is my name. So, Asia san, where are you going?"
"Ah, I'm going to the house where father freed is."
"I see, Good luck then."
I guess it is around this time huh...
"? Yes?"
"Nah, So~ Asia san~ what do you think of Issei???"
"Um, he is kind, nice...I'm glad we became friends."
She said why looking down.
"I see, I see, so Asia chan's first friend is Issei huh."
I said before I patted her head.
*blush* y-yes. Um... Miyagawa san...do I know you perhaps?"
"Nonono mademoiselle, Just call me Yato just like how you called Issei by his first name, and...no, you don't know me."
I said with a smile and gentle eyes to her, who would have known that my expression could be misunderstood by Asia?
However, I have no way of knowing that.
We continue walking, there is a moment of silence after I said that.
'I guess, after this silence the both of us will separate our way.
....
Or not.....bruh.
*
*no one's POV*
"Kyaaah!"
Blood is on the floor everywhere, the smell of human flesh stung her nose, the burnt bodies of two victims couldn't be recognized.
She was scared and shocked, Asia didn't know what to do.
'W-what is this?!'
"Oh, Asia my assistant."
Said the person in a priest's clothing and dirty white hair.
However, his words couldn't get inside her ear as she was too shocked at the scene in front of her.
"Th-this is."
"Oh, yeah, you're a beginner."
The priest said happily as his left eye lower a little.
"This is ou-"
"Damn, masochist pervert, see? Didn't I tell you?
You really are a masochist huh... Shot in the shin and a slash on the back, and you're still alive, anyway, you fine bro? I bet it's not, look, your blood is on the floor, of course, you're not fine yeah?
Anyway, You're fine? I said it again but I guess you couldn't answer after seeing me huh..."
"Ya-yato?"
"Issei san?!"
The priest was looking at the black hair and light blue eyes guy, after hearing the voice of Asia, he smiled maniacally.
"Oya? Asia, do you know this devil?"
"Yeah, that is a devil, the enemy of god. They're a being who should be killed at any moment."
"B-but...father freed please spare him! H- he helped me when I was lost!"
Freed looks at Asia interestingly.
"This devil helped you? Does it the same for this person?"
Freed pointed out Yato who was still talking at Issei.
"Then...Who will you choose, That devil or that person? Choose Asia chan, I might spare one."
Freed said as he licked his gun.
"Ah man, see that person Issei? Yeah, the one who said he is a priest.
Remember that time when you said I forgot to appoint a meeting with a therapist?
Maybe this jerk face needed it more than me.
I mean look, doesn't he look like a person who forgets to take medicine?"
Said Yato making everyone turn into silence.
"And bro~ look at this, what this in your arm? A red gauntlet? Are you guys making an action anime-ish movie? Does that mean that body is just a prop? Looks real though."
"No...Yato..."
"Asia chan...forget what I said, a person who came into contact with the devil is already a sin, that includes you Asia chan."
After saying those words, freed instantly disappeared from Asia's eyes, the next moment, she saw Yato flying and crashing into the wall.
Bang! bang! bang!
"" Yato!/Yato kun!""
Two people said in unison.
"Kukuku, this is what happen to those who disobeyed the god, Asia where are you going?"
Freed saw Asia heading towards yato but he stopped her.
"Asia, we will kill off worthless people
Enchanted by the devil, you see. Just like that person who was now dead, a friend with a devil is considered as a sin."
"Please stop! Father freed, I beg you! Please forgive them, le-"
"you serious? Asia this is enough."
Freed swung his sword downward cutting Asia's nun outfit.
"The fallen angel woman refused to cooperate with me but said not to hurt you, but Asia, maybe you should be punished."
He pulled Asia to the wall raises her arms and stab the sword between them.
He then grabs her boob, and slowly raises her lower part with his gun.
"Stop it!"
Issei stand up and punch Freed in the face which he was completely off guard.
"You!"
Freed was about to attack, however.
A red magic circle appeared on the ceiling and a blond hair guy went out deflecting Freed's sword.
"Kiba?!"
"Hyoudou, I came to help."
One by one, every member of the Occult club came.
"Sorry, but he's with us."
Freed was in Ecstasy about what was happening, he talk to Akeno and was stimulated by her piercing gaze.
Suddenly, an attacking shot at him making him crashed into the wall
"Issei, we have no time, let's go."
"But."
"The fallen angel is coming."
"But! Gremory senpai! Ya-"
"Yato...?"
Rias eyes widen when Koneko suddenly said the name of the man she knew.
She looks at Koneko and witnesses her shocked and petrified expression.
She looks at the place where Yato was and her eyes couldn't contain her emotion.
He was full of blood and not moving, he looks like a sleeping person if there is no blood on his whole body.
"Oya? Do you devils know that worthless human? Sadly, I killed him kyahahaha!"
Koneko lost her control as well as Rias, their mana started to raise and wanted to fight Freed, they lost their rationality to think.
"Oh, kuhaha, let's see de-"
"Jerk face..."
A voice that is so deep and cold coming up at the person who they thought is already dead.
Everyone looks at him surprised, Rias and Koneko calms down but was confused.
"What? You-"
"Be quiet."
As Yato said those two words, he instantly vanish and everyone was surprised.
In an instant, a fist came flying at freed, the fist crashed itself into his face. As a crackling noise, could e hear?
He was thrown into the sofa with a broken tooth and nose.
"Hey, jerk face, stand up, we're not done."
Yato said, everyone was looking at him in shock, what they witnessed was something they couldn't comprehend.
They didn't even notice Yato's attack.
They then flinched when they saw his expression.
Cold, ruthless, and angry could be seen in his eyes.
This is the first time they saw yato like this.
"Come on, jerk face."
Zero: this is certainly long...gah...
