DxD Crawling To The Top

Chapter 27



Title: Existence Eater...




….
Later on, Koneko and Issei meet up and agree with the church trio to allow Kiba to destroy one of the Excalibur fragments.




…
At the same time as Haruto is fu*king Ras, Athena is in her laboratory. Her mind wandering to Haruto. ‘He won’t leave me for that red-haired girl… he won’t leave me… I know that.’


Though she trusts Haruto, she can’t help it as her mind wanders. A chill runs down her spine as she thinks of that. ‘I should kill that girl… no… I trust Haruto. He will never leave me… maybe I should kill Jeanne, that girl has fire in her heart every time she looks at Haruto. HE IS MINE!!!’


BOOOM!!!


Large cracks spread all around the lab and a piece of it is destroyed, and it shows countless colors. But Athena calms down and fixes the hole in the lab with a swipe of her hand. ‘Well, there are more concerning matters at hand. His health, his life force used to be like the sun that seemed almost infinite back in the day. He had achieved immortality he had me, a goddess in his arms. He had everything. But… he was never satisfied… he never will be.’


Tears fall out of Athena’s eyes as she thinks of that. ‘I don’t want him to end like Sisyphus. A human can’t just trick the laws of nature and get away with it. Why… why isn’t he satisfied, we could have lived together till the end of the world. I wonder, am I even important to him anymore?’


She can’t help it as she lies down on the lab’s bed and contemplates if Haruto loves her anymore. She remembers him since he was young, a weak mage wanting to gain everything this world had to offer. Those eyes of his made her fall in love with him, that will to be the best and never settle for 2nd place. 

But even now, as he grew stronger, started the Abyss Auction, and became a human who even the gods had to listen to. He was at the peak of his power. ‘But those eyes of his, they haven’t changed at all.’


That is what worries Athena, as Haruto’s greed will be endless, and that will one day be his undoing. 



‘Will he ever even be satisfied?’ Wonders Athena, as she takes off her clothes and an image of Haruto embracing her appears in her head. She smiles at that, though he might currently be with another woman… she can’t stop lying to herself and think that he is embracing her instead of Rias.


….
….
A couple of hours later and Haruto is sitting on his bed as Rias, breathing heavily lies down on his bed as white liquid comes from her nether lips. 


Haruto has a smile of satisfaction on his face, he now just needs to get Akeno and convince her into a threesome. At least that is his short-term goal. 


Still, his smile wears off as he thinks of the soon to come events. Kokabiel, the ten winged fallen angel. The situation to him is… troublesome…



“Uhmm~” Moans Rias as she turns around.   




…
Later on, Rias leaves while Haruto is in the shower. But Athena joins him at that moment so it wasn’t too bad for him. In the end, though Athena saw a look on his face that she hadn’t seen in a long time. 


A cold look in his eyes is covered by his hair. 


“What is wrong?” Asks Athena, knowing that someone is gonna have to die if Haruto has that look in his eyes.


That seemed to pull him out of his thoughts and Haruto smile at his lover. “No, nothing is wrong, I was just contemplating a couple of things.”


“What things?” Asks Athena again. Not letting Haruto off, she can be a little controlling when she wants to be.    



"Well, a couple of those things and a couple of others." Says Haruto jokingly, as he still doesn't get to the point.


"C'mon~ don't be such a spoilsport." Pouts Athena, as she leans into Haruto and an arm goes around his neck as she pokes his cheek.



"Well, you are the goddess of wisdom, shouldn't you already know about this?" Asks Haruto jokingly, already knowing the answer.


"C'mon~ you know I would have to release my full power to find out things like that. I doubt you can handle dad at your power right now." As Athena says that her hand that was poking his cheek runs down his neck, goes to his chest and it still goes down till she grabs hold of his shaft. "I will make it worth your while…"


*sigh* Haruto sigs as he feels Athena's grip around his aroused shaft. "Well, I guess I can tell you."

Athena's smile morphs into a triumphant one. "Knew I could make you talk eventually." Says Athena as she starts giving him a handjob.


Haruto smiles and captures her lips. He uses this to activate a spell that lets him pass knowledge to her.


Her eyes widen at the information that she gets, and at that exact moment. They both sense a crazy amount of holy energy concentrated in Kuoh Academy.


"How did you know this would happen?"


"Wow, Athena… you really are asking a lot of questions today." Says Haruto, a teasing look on his face, as he flickers her on the forehead and says. "You are the goddess of wisdom, figure it out."


He of course knows that she won't be able to figure it out. Haruto has a clear view of Athena's power and her limitations.


No matter how much he trusts her, he will never tell her about his origins. Two people can keep a secret only if one is dead.



….
Currently inside Kuoh Academy, the place is covered in a barrier that is being held together by Soma and her Peerage. 


Anyone could clearly see what is going on here. The ORC Club had gone to fight Kokabiel and they had instead been pushed back by his Cerberus. Until Xenovia and Jeanne joined here. 


The latter looks at the Cerberus and her eyes narrow. "<Balance Breaker: Stake Victim Dragon>"


BOoOm!


Countless swords come out of the ground and pierces all the Cerberus. The swords gather together and take the form of a dragon made out of swords. It looks like a dragon made out of metal.


She controls the dragon to attack Kokabiel, but the latter only smiles and creates a giant holy light spear.



BOOOM!!!



It easily destroys the dragon.


"Is that it?" Asks Kokabiel. "Kind of disappointed. Thought the church would send some stronger people. Even Jeanne's reincarnation is nothing special."


Jeanne narrows her eyes at that, she has already killed Valper as he was trying to fuse Excalibur.

But now, she knows that she is way too outmatched when against someone like Kokabiel.


His eyes land on Jeanne and he smiles. "Aren't you one of Existence Eater's b*tches?"


Jeanne doesn't answer, she just shoots swords at him, which he easily deflects.


"Hmmm…" Kokabiel continues talking as if her attacker meant nothing to him. "Now that is quite interesting. If I kill you he would definitely come after me… now that is something exciting."

He creates a huge light spear and shoots it at Jeanne. 


But as the light spear goes towards her a crack appears midair, as if reality itself cracked. The spear is swallowed and goes away as if it was never there, to begin with.



"Well, well, well… look who we have here. A soon to be a dead crow. You sure have big balls to threaten me Kokabiel." Haruto's voice comes as he teleports in front of Jeanne with no magic circle needed.



"Heh." Kokabiel only snorts at him. "Irregular Magician, you are nothing special. Especially with that b*tch Athena here to protect you."

BOOOOM!!!


Immediately a huge aura appears from his body, it washes over all of the ORC club members.

Rias looks at this in shock. She has never felt such an aura. She has to hold onto the ground so she isn't blown away.


She looks up and sees cracks appear all over Sona's barrier as it can't hold the energy being released on the inside.


Kokabiel smiles at this. "You goddamn monster."


Haruto's smile widens.
