Highschool DxD: Dragon's Ascent

Omake 2: Blorbo's Ascent

(Takes place between chapters 63 and 64)

~Sona Sitri~

Sona's peerage landed in the forest. Ready to hunt the presumed stray devil so that she could vent her frustrations and fulfill her duties as one of the kings of Kuoh. Recently Rias was busy, presumably with her new bishop so the duty fell on her.

"Kaichou, this is strange. I cannot even detect a hint of their magical power." Her queen chimed in from the side as Sona nodded stoically.

Her adversary must have been very skilled at hiding their magical signatures. Even she couldn't sense where they were.

"Uhh, maybe they just aren't here?" Her newest addition to her peerage spoke up out of line.

"Be quiet Saji-kun, of course the stray devil is here. Please avoid speaking out and distracting your peers." Sona might have snapped a bit harshly but she already had a bad opinion of her pawn.

Not only had he not possessed a sacred gear like she had first thought but he was also not very talented and had a slight perverted streak which, albeit far below the infamous pervert trio, was still infuriating. Was it unfair to lash out at him over her own failed observations and scouting? Yes, but she was at least paying him, she would probably start treating him less harshly when her failure hurt less.

"Reya, can you sense anything?" Sona asked her bishop, the greatest sensor in her peerage and on her command Reya focused her senses before pointing to a direction.

"I think... yes! There is something there!" She pointed to a spot between the trees and her peerage took on combat positions without her needing to say so as they had trained to but then what emerged from the treeline...

Jiggle Jiggle Wobble Wobble.

"Reya, were you trying to make a joke?" Sona asked in an icy tone, this was serious business yet her bishop decided to point toward a slime instead. Not even a particularly large one either with barely a mana signature.

It was admittedly rather cute, reaching around her knees in height and it had a light green apple colour. It was jiggling and wobbling without a care in the wo -

This was the human world , Kuoh. There weren't supposed to be any slimes here.

Swish!

"Kyah!!!"

"Yura! What the-!" Sona's widened as the seemingly harmless slime released a high-pressure water blade before she could even react and hit her rook with it, putting a light gash across her body diagonally, the rest of the slash bisecting a dozen trees, her rook fell to her knees as her clothes were torn off while Sona prepared her spell, an ice bolt and commandeered her team and trying to organize them when it moved again.
