First thing in the morning when we went out to buy something to eat outside before going to Kuoh Academy. We ordered our food, I also ordered tea, since having Reines around I grew accustomed to having tea in the morning sir didn't mind also. So is normal for us.

After eating I and Xenovia returned to the hotel to see if we forgot something while Irina wandered by herself for a while, we paid no mind, after all, she grew here and knows more about the city than us.

Before we knew it she came back with a painting, she didn't say anything about that and after that, we went to Kuoh academy to meet part of the devils that control this zone. So we stepped inside the room Irina and Xenovia sat on the sofa while I stood behind them. They presented themselves. One of them kept looking at me I supposed it's because of the hood.

Rias: First thing first. What are your names?

Irina: Mine is Irina Shidou. Pleased to meet you.

Xenovia: Xenovia Quarta, both of us were sent from by the Vatican.

Akeno: And that is?

Y/N: My name is Y/N, I was sent by the Clock Tower.

Raven: The Clock Tower has restricted entrance to Kuoh.

Add: Shut up raven! We were sent here.

Rias: Who was that?

I took out Add.

Y/N: This is Add. My mystic code. Add please keep calm this is important.

I don't like calling him that but seeing we are with people.

Rias: Which department are you from? 

Y/N: Modern Magecraft.

I saw how some of them had a look of confusion on their faces.

Xenovia: Y/N was permitted to help us by the church.

Rias: The church wants to strengthen bonds with the Clock from what I can see.

Y/N: Yeah my teacher said the same. We can talk about that later.

Rias: Yeah.

Irina: Back to the matter. The other day three of the holy swords Excalibur were stolen while in storage, under church care.

Issei: Eh... So the holy sword of legend Excalibur... Just how many are there?

Y/N: The original Excalibur. It was broken long ago.

Issei: Broken? Even though it's such a famous sword?

Y/N: The Clock Tower says that it was broken because it was too powerful.

Xenovia: Its current form... From the pieces of the Excalibur 7 new blades were created by alchemy...

She unwrapped her sword.

Xenovia: This is one of them, Excalibur Destruction. This is under catholic supervision.

Irina began unwrapping the string she had tied on her arm.

Irina: And mine is... Excalibur Mimic, it's really convenient it can freely transform its shape.

Then both of them looked at me.

Rias: And your mystic code does?

Y/N: I won't use him unless we need to fight.

Issei: So it is a weapon.

Add: Who are you calling a weapon! I am his companion. You idiot!

He clearly wasn't happy about being called that. Everyone noticed so they didn't say anything.

Rias:... So what is your business?

Irina: This discussion is about how one was stolen from each branch of the church and brought to Kuoh.

Rias: How careless... So who would do such a thing?

Xenovia: The one who stole it is the leader of the fallen angels, the "ones who guard against the children of God" Kokabiel.

There is the who did it, now what last to solve is the why did it. But I can guess that pretty easily.

Xenovia: He wiped out the exorcist covertly dispatched a few days ago. Which brings us to our request... No, our demand. the devils must keep out of the fight between Grigori and os over the Excalibur. In other words. We came to tell you to keep your noses out of this incident.

Rias: You are full of yourself, aren't you? what if we teamed up with the fallen angels?

Xenovia: Head Quarters is concerned with that possibility as well.

Rias: On the name of the Gremory I will not ally with fallen angels!

Issei: Then what about Y/N, seeing that the church doesn't need outside help.

Y/N: The clock tower sometimes helps the church in some manners like the Excalibur.

Issei: Uh?

Koneko: Idiot, how do you think that seven other swords were created from a broken sword.

For the first time in this meeting, the white-haired lady talked.

Irina: As your companion said their mages helped the creation of the Excalibur fragments.

Xenovia: were not asking for your help. in fact teaming up with the side of go even temporarily, would have no small impact in the three-way standoff...

Rias: How do you think the orthodox church will act?

Xenovia: Until this matter ends, they will guard the remaining blade to the death.

After some talking about how both of them will take back the blade with also my help. we began walking away. But they stopped before Asia was it? they talked about how before she was a holy woman helping those in need, and that now she is a devil. from saint to a devil how curious. Issei stepped between them and yelled at them because both of them were going to kill her.

Issei: Y/N are you going to stay idle in this matter?!

Y/N: I am a grave keeper. Persons that once died should stay that way. It never ends well for anyone.

Issei: If you lay a hand on Asia, I'll beat the shit out of every last one of you.

Add: Oh! It seems there is a dead person that bites more than he can chew.

Xenovia: Is that a challenge to us? A mere devil shoots off his big mouth...

Kiba: The perfect timing. ill be your opponent.

Xenovia: And who are you?

Kiba: I am your senior, though a failed creation.

After that we were challenged to a duel, Irina isn't going to participate in this one. Issei and Kiba vs me and Xenovia. So we stepped outside and Xenovia took off her clock, leaving her in her battle clothes, it was hard to look at her.

Xenovia: I want to confirm something before we begin. This is a private battle that doesn't concern the church nor the Clock Tower. We don't plan to have things get any bigger than this. I suppose you recognize that fact?

Rias: Yes.

Xenovia: I shall test the power of the servant of Rias Gremory and our so-called.

Y/N: I will lead them to both life and death... Add!

Add: On it!

Y/N: First stage restraint rescinded!

Some of his power was now noticeable. But most of the thing would be mistaken by magic

Rias: Issei although it's just a match be really careful of those weapons.

After some words, Issei summoned his sacred gear a Longinus. After that, the battle began.

I went towards Issei, he was having trouble doing and blocking, even if he blocked he was still getting hurt because Add consumes souls, so his souls are getting hurt in the process. He tried to hit me a couple of times but he missed every time he missed his gauntlet screamed boost. From what I know 

Y/N: We'll end this. Add!

Add: On it!

My eyes changed color to orange. Add changed to a bow and we began shooting multiple arrows we hit him a couple of times he tried to touch using explosion? but it has very predictable. Then Add changed into his hammer form he somehow withstood a hit from it but now he was really hurt is time to end this.

Y/N: To darken... To celebrate

I went for him in adds scythe form he somehow with his injuries dogged the hits. The mana here exceeds the normal so Add consumed it and he got bigger.

Y/N: To desire... To corrupt...

I changed to boomerang mode to hit him to make him fall from behind. Now he was lying on his back. Seeing that I was approaching with a big scythe he did the only thing he could think.

Issei: I give up!

I stopped my chanting and Add remained in his scythe form. When I looked to see how Xenovia is handling her battle. but I saw how she won to Kiba hitting him in the stomach with the handle of her sword, making him yield.

After some words, we decide to go our way, and Xenovia mentioned about the white dragon has awakened and Issei isn't going to beat him in this state.

When we returned to the hotel they asked us to pay for the next night Irina had control of the money. It seems that she spent it all in that painting of this morning, which resulted in us being expulsed of the hotel with no money to pay for food or anything.

We went to a nearby park. I decided to call sir, while the other two begged for money.

Waver: Y/N? What is it?

Y/N: Sir the money the church had to pay our expenses was wasted.

Waver: I'm sorry but I cannot do anything. Tell me what happened.

Y/N: The one who was in charge of the money spend it all to buy a painting.

Waver: Was it real?

Y/N: No.

Waver: Ugh. For these things, I don't like the church. Have you found anything?

Y/N: Yeah the one who stole the Excalibur fragments was Kobabiel. The why did it is still debatable but I had the idea why.

Waver: I see. I have a question about the place. The mana resource how big is it.

Y/N: Is really big. It was most noticeable in the academy. We haven't gone to a church so I don't know how is in other places.

Waver: So I suppose you have met already the devils. How it went?

Y/N: Poorly. It ended in a match between me and one of the girls vs two of the Gremory servants. One thing surprised me the most.

Waver: What was it.

Y/N: They both have died before and still were standing.

Waver: That is interesting. Have you learned how?

Y/N: Yes but it's better to explain it in person.

Waver: Okay, Call anything happens.

Y/N: Will do sir.

I returned to the two girls I see that they have gain barely any money. And they were discussing with each other. Until they succumbed to their hunger.

Xenovia: How about we raid a temple.

Irina: And bring their money box back?

Y/N: Please don't. We cannot bring ourselves to bring more attention.

Irina: Then how you do a magic show or something like that. You are a mage, right?

Y/N: Y-yeah but it against the Clock Tower showing magic to normal people.

Xenovia: You can do exceptions right?

Y/N: No. 

Xenovia: Though we don't even have fruit to cut from the beginning. Our only choice is to slay this painting.

They began arguing again, why did this happen to me. Until Issei, Koneko and another person came and asked us if we wanted to join them to eat. We all agreed to join them. we ordered and we began eating. It was good but I still prefer the food in London.

Y/N: I suppose you want to know about the Clock Tower. But first nice to meet you I'm Y/N. And this is Add.

I moved my cloak a little t let him be seen.

Add: Hey.

???: Hi I'm Saji. Yeah, I also want to know about that. It's the first time I hear about that name.

Y/N: Well the Clock Tower that is in London is an institution for mages to study distant types of magic.

Issei: Really?

Y/N: Yeah. 

Koneko: You said you were in modern magecraft. What is that?

Y/N: Is the study to bring about what is possible through science with supernatural means and through that creating new things.

Saji: To think the Clock Tower is an institution to learn magic. Why devils aren't allowed?

Y/N: You need to be a human to learn such things, and you need to be recognized by someone from the inside.

Irina: So someone needs to allow you to study there. I want to see it. So who recognized you?

Y/N: My teacher. Lord El-Melloi II. He saved me and made me his apprentice.

Xenovia: A Lord you must be really strong.

Issei: Well I think he is really strong. Even blocking I felt like I was being destroyed inside.

Add: Give thanks that you gave before he finished chanting.

Y/N: As I said I am a grave keeper. So I know some necromancy, specialized to fight spirits, so I have learned how to hurt the soul. If I finished chanting the effects would have been very hurtful and permanent.

Koneko: It wouldn't have been a bad thing.

Issei: Hey! Aren't we partners.

Add: Hahaha! Not even your partner likes you that is so funny.

Y/N: For me, it wouldn't have been a bad thing, dead persons should remain dead. It causes more trouble than help.

Saji: Are you saying that because you are a grave keeper. Only because of that.

Y/N: In part yes. I know when a dead person has died before. Bringing them back to life causes a lot of trouble. I dislike things that should be dead.

It reminds back home. Wanting to revive someone isn't good.

Issei: Anyway, we also wanted your help. Well, I need your help in destroying the holy sword.

After some talking, we agreed on borrowing the help of the red dragon, and then he called Kiba the one who was made at the Excalibur, it seems he was part of the holy sword project. He agreed to help us even if he was mad at the church but he will need to kill Freed and Valper Galilei. Both of them were expulsed of the church and now work for the fallen angels. For now, we went to investigate for ourselves.

The next day we spent it searching all day until we felt how a battle was transcending. When we arrived we saw The ones who agreed to help us were fighting so when Freed was going to getaway. We went at our maximum velocity to catch them. But it was a trap We found Kobabiel and fought him but he summoned back hounds to entertain us. The black hounds were too many and were centered in me and Add because they are spirits of London.

But before we knew it Irina disappeared and the black hounds continued appearing.

Y/N: Xenovia I will take care of this, they are focused on us. I will make a distraction, take this opportunity and search for them.

Xenovia: Okay. Don't you dare to die!

Y/N: I won't. Add!

Add: Eheh eh eh heh! I love it! I can't contain myself either! A buffet, Y/N!

Y/N: I will show them the secret of techniques of a grave keeper!

He grew its size and displayed more of his power what grabbed more the attention of the black hounds. And gave Xenovia the opportunity of running to search for our companions. I slayed them from left to right not stopping at any moment, while I was slaying them I felt something deep into my soul. It must be the Excalibur, but it wasn't complete it missed a few pieces. So when I finished with the black hounds, I ran towards where the energy was coming from. Faster than I have ever done, maybe I have only met them for a couple of days but those two need to be saved, the devils didn't care that I disliked people reincarnated and help us.

When I arrived I saw a man with six wings flying and charging an attack.

Rias: With that energy, he could destroy the boundary field and Kuoh.

Xenovia: Y/N! You are alive. Y/N has God is died.

I saw her with another sword. But I began thinking. God is really dead. how? It didn't matter now what matters is the battle before me.

Kokabiel: I thought the black hounds had taken of you. It doesn't matter. I Reserved more if given the chance.

He snapped his fingers and more appeared. I don't think with Add's current state he could defeat them all. I will need to use it.

Y/N: Xenovia. Guys, I need you to give me time.

They nodded and began chanting. I raised Add.

Y/N: Gray... Rave... Crave... Deprave...

Add: Pseudo-personality suspended. Magical energy yield exceeds regulation. Second stage restraint rescinded.
Seal Thirteen. Decision, start.
This is a battle that will harm no Elemental. Approved.
This is a battle against an enemy mightier than oneself. Approved.
This is a battle to live. Approved.
This is a battle that does not stand against humanity. Approved.
This is a battle for truth. Approved.
Third stage restraint rescinded.

A Light shoot upwards into the sky. Its holy power was noticeable to everyone that was in Kuoh and could perceive these things.

Y/N: O ancient Mystics...be exterminated. O sweet mystery...return all to nothingness.

I felt how the air charged and took off my hood.

Kokabiel: That face no way. And this light. It can't be.

Y/N: Sacred lance...removing restraints...

Kokabiel: I WONT'T DIE HERE!!!

He released his attack, everyone around us was in shock at what is going to happen. His attack still could destroy Kuoh.

Y/N: Rhongomyniad!!!

Rhongomyniad engulfed his attack and made it disappear. then The beam continued his way and hit him, the beam was hurting him and he was screaming.  The black hounds began disappearing, the boundary field wall destroyed itself and the beam could be seen in the sky. There were no more Kokabiel.

Everyone was shocked by what just happened the power displayed made the devils go on their knees.

Y/N: Thank god we did it.

Add: Eh heh heh, victory!

I soon noticed my hood and hide my face. I don't want anyone seeing my face, it always brings problems.

Soon I felt how someone tackled me into a hug. It was Xenovia and Koneko who were able to move after all that happened. It really embarrassed me. then a white light descended. A person with white armor descended.

White armor person: It seems it ended in a way it shouldn't have. But even so, if that attack reached the ground all of Kuoh would have been history.

After that statement, Issei's gauntlet and his armor began talking it seems he is the white dragon, the mortal enemy of the red dragon. He was here to stop Kokabiel but he was too late. But it seems he and the red dragon have the battle to settle that will need to wait another day. After that Rias gave me Xenovia and Irina a place to stay for the night.

I feel like this will not end here. Kuoh has a lot of things to show us.

_________

Well in reality I thought this would have taken to chapters. But this arc is really short in writing manners. And for now, the vote of the love interests has shown two winners for now.

Still surprises me that nobody has voted for Olga. But thinking about it will leave a third spot open, until the next chapter is published but the character must be from the Fate franchise/universe. I hate contradicting myself but thinking about it would make sense. Y/N is a mage and will need a soon to transplant his knowledge, and both Koneko and Xenovia are devils and devils who have a hard time having children. So having humans will ease up things, I know that someone commented Reines but I cannot go with only one coment.

After that I hope you have a good day or night from SNT
