The Draconic pet of House-Gremmory (HighschoolDxd X Dragon MaleReader)

Chapter 36

Within the underworld sitting atop a high cliff is Y/n who is gazing off into the distance. His face is expressionless despite the wistful gaze in his eyes. As the wind blows through his crimson hair he lets out a long and heavy sigh.

Y/n/mind: 'I...feel so confused...I hate the gremmory family, I hate the devils and yet I still don't know if what I did was right. Was killing Zeoticus the right thing to do?'

Y/n's thoughts are interrupted when he hears the sound of flapping wings tilting his head up to the sky he sees a small group of what looks to be fallen angels in the sky above him. His surprised expression turns to one of shock when dozens of more fallen angels join the fight followed by several hundreds more.

Y/n/mind: 'Where could they be going is this some kind of attack?!'

Startled by the small army of fallen angels Y/n quickly climbs down the cliff using his claws and hides from view among the rocks. He watches as the small army of fallen angels heads in the direction of a nearby town of devils.

Y/n/mind: 'Why would an army attack such a small town?'

Holding out his hand Y/n creates a magic circle that passes through his body causing it to become invisible. Red draconic wings burst out of his back and he flies with intense speed in the direction of the town. The army however moves quicker and many dozens of fallen angels launch an assault on the devil citizens of the town. However instead of killing the civilians they capture or injure them before flying away with men, women and children.

Y/n/mind: 'I hate these devils...all they ever caused me was pain...maybe I should just let them die.'

Y/n thinks to himself as he hovers above the town now being attacked by the small army of fallen angels. He watches the buildings being set on fire, the children crying amidst corpses and the people being captured and flown away.

Y/n/mind: 'They deserve this...all of them deserve what's happening to them.'

Suddenly the memory of Yubelluna's smile flashes before Y/n's eyes and he clenches his fists with a growl.

Y/n/mind: 'Dammit all!'

With a powerful bat of his wings Y/n flies away leaving the town to be destroyed by the attackers.

Rias Gremmory finds herself crying in her room while lying down on her bed all while two heavily armored guards stand outside of the bed chambers doors.

Rias/mind: 'Why...why did all this have to happen...why has my life become like this?'

As the tears from Rias's eyes soak the pillow beneath her face she hears the sound of arguing outside of the door. Moments later a knocking sound is heard before Issei Hyoudou opens one of the two doors slightly and peeks inside. He sees Rias lying on her bed within the darkness of the room.

Issei: "Hey...uh president do you mind if we talked?"

Issei carefully asks the saddened redheaded devil with a gentle but nervous voice. For several moments Rias just ignored the brunette and he slowly stepped inside and sat down on the bed. He reaches for the presidents shoulder but the moment he touches her she leaps at him. Rias pins Issei down and looms over him with tears falling from her eyes.

Rias: "I-Issei...where did I go wrong...why is all this happening to me?"

Rias asks her pawn with a tone of sadness in her voice and she cries into his chest. Issei whose body is now stiff out of embarrassment grows a perverted expression on his face when he feels his masters chest press up against him. But then he shakes his head and rubs Rias's back.

Issei: "It's alright president...everything will be OK...we've found a way to bring your dad back to life...but it's a long process."

Hearing Issei's words Rias pulls back with a stunned look on her tear stained face. Then a sad but happy smile appears on her lips and she pulls Issei into a tight hug.

Rias: "Thank you! Thank you for giving me at least a little hope."

Issei: "Eh...your welcome president."

Back on earth in Kyoto the Gremmory peerage finds themselves at school in gym class. All of them are performing various different physical exercises ranging from push ups, pull ups, sit ups and many more. Both boys and girls are covered in sweat as they are forced to move around under the PE teachers gaze.

Issei/mind: 'I have to get stronger...I have to impress the president I want to become stronger so I can protect her. Protect her from that dragon Y/n.'

After over half an hour passes the PE teacher signals the end of class with a blow of his whistle. After a brief lecture everyone is sent to the changing rooms to put their school uniforms back on. As Issei is putting on his uniform Kiba pats him on the shoulder.

Kiba: "Good job man you worked hard today."

Issei: "Hey thanks dude but it's still not enough...I need to get stronger."

With a smile Kiba gives the the brunette headed boy another pat on the shoulder.

Kiba: "Just don't push yourself too hard alright."

As the students move on from class to class the day goes by and eventually the Gremmory peerage members find themselves back in the club room.

Asia: "Wow what day all that exercise sure made my muscles sore."

Issei: "In that case might I offer a massage?"

Asia blushes when she hears Issei's words and gives him a polite smile.

Asia: "Uh...no thanks I appreciate the offer though."

Rias: "Well trainings not over yet starting tomorrow we'll be working harder after school."

Rias announces to the rest of her peerage catching the attention of many of them.

Xenovia: "Any reason why though?"

Rias: "Because we need to get stronger for the upcoming rating games and..."

Rias clutches her head for a moment and winces then she stumbles up to her feet off of the chair and walks away.

Akeno: "Something wrong madam president?"

Rias: "It's nothing just a headache."

Rias leaves the club room causing everyone else to glance at one and other in concern.
