Hey guys!

How are you doing. This chapter revolves more around Akeno and then there is a big reveltion at the end. So Stay Tuned!

Now, Let's dive right into the chapter.

Issei's POV:

As I mulled over the gravity of the situation, I couldn't help but stifle a chuckle at the thought of my mom's hypothetical reaction to that note. But reality hit hard – Akeno's predicament wasn't a laughing matter, and I doubted whether Azazel could offer much help.

I glanced at Akeno, her blindfold still on to shield her from seeing me. It pained me to see her struggle under that cursed spell, her movements becoming more erratic by the moment, her hands inching towards her pants, or, well, you know... "Ahem Ahem."

"We've got to move, Kiba," I said,with urgency present in my tone, as we approached the gates of the Fallen Angels. Two sentinels, unmistakably Middle-class Fallen Angels,judging by the count of their wings. They flew down the gate. It appeared they were guards who were guarding the entrance to Realm of the Fallen angels as well as halting our advance.

"Oh it is you. What are you doing here, Issei-sama, that to with these devil scumbags? You do know, don't you, Issei-sama, it's against protocol to bring servants of the Devils here," the younger guard spoke up. I recognized him from my previous 'training' session with Albion."Especially without the permission of Lord Azazel or Commander Baraqiel."

"Ok then, if you are ready to take responsibility if something happens to Baraqiel's daughter, I will leave right this instant?" I shot back, noticing Kiba's puzzled expression due to the guards' familiarity with me.

"What are you talking about Issei-sama?" the young fallen angel asked.

"Ravion, this devil-fallen angel hybrid is Baraqiel's kin. You know the consequences if something happens to her because of you stopping me, right?" I pressed on.

"Sorry for the holdup, Issei-sama. You may proceed," Ravion relented, allowing us through. I waved off his apology, motioning for Kiba to follow. But I noticed Ravion and the other soldier blocking Kiba's path as we entered.

"Oooooohhh, Raaavioooonnn, if you don't allow passage, I will tell Baraqiel about how you stopped me from proceeding even knowing of the consequences " I said lightly.

"But Isse—" He tried to protest.

"No buts Ravion, either you allow him passage or deal with the consequences." Hearing the cleat shot warning the guards relented, letting Kiba pass.

"Now, how will we reach Azazel in this crowd?" Kiba asked.

"Simple, we'll use a snowbite gate," I replied.

"We will use a wha—" I cut him off by pulling him into the portal I conjured. In a blink, we landed in Azazel's cabin.

"Guess Ravion tipped you off about our arrival, you ancient piece of laziness" I teased Azazel.

"Yeah, he did," Azazel said, his gaze drifting to Akeno, who was clearly not in a good state, which was clearly evident as now her hands were inside her pants and her grunting and moaning had become way too loud.

"We need Baraqiel, now," I stressed, not wasting any time. As Azazel agreed and was scurrying to find Baraqiel, I added, "Also do not tell him about the situation and also bring every sacred gear you've got, even the ones gathering dust, the failures and the ones under development. They might come in handy for once. Unlike you." I said adding the last part to mess with him.
