DXD OVERLORD

WINTER BREAK IS HERE Location the Humanworld, Japan-Kuoh: Bael Residence, Krichevskoy Mansion; Theater Room

Right now Laharl was hanving a Mortal Kombat match with Ruby. He was playing Scorpion while Ruby played Ermac. This is a even match, the reason for this quick match between them, they were passing time. Since the girls were getting ready for the vacation back home in the Underground. Cause after a some days, Winter break was finally upon them. As Nero came into the room, saying her trademark, "umu" and that the other girls were done packing. With that Laharl, he used the spear move of Scorpion, and pulled a quick combo that lead into a uppercut, but Ruby made a vicious combo and Ermac's slamming move. Then she performed his projectile, winning the fight and performing a fatality on his Scorpion. Ending their score in Mortal Kombat in a 24-39, at Ruby's favor. Thus they turn off the nintendo, and started heading out. Finally some time away from Kuoh would do everyone some good...even if Rias tried desperately to convince them to stay, and enjoy winter break on the Humanworld, which all of them, flat-out refused.

Location the Underworld, Bael Territory: Belladonna's Mansion One quick teleport, and they arrived at their destination. With Belladonna and Marron already waiting for them. As Laharl's mom was soo excited to have him and the girls back for the holidays. They started their first day of vacation, by having a warm dinner with everyone. As Belladonna, she spoke with the girls about things, school, their time growing and bonding deeper with her son, and...she did asked if their special "equipment" serve them. Making all the girls, blush deep red, and nod to her. She glance at her son, who had his hoodie covering more his face, as he ate some roast meat...in his defense, talking about these thing in the presence of her, might be very embarrassing. Even Nero and Cerberus who are the most liveliest of the girls, were a bit quiet and awkward about this. And that only made Belladonna giggle, as they continued to eat in peace.

The next day, they went to the nekomata settlement, calling a village...it was an understatement. It has grown to great lengths, with the nekomata and nekoshou dungeon diving to grow in power. Along with selling a huge amount of crops. From what Kneesocks and Albedo have told him before, the Underworld has been flourishing from having an actual source of farming. Instead of buying and negotiating with other races, something that Laharl never understood, despite being the main race of focus of DXD, devils are one of the most dependent on other, just under the angels. It goes to show, that if the pure-bloods and council were actually thinking of the benefit of their race as a whole, they could have prospered in some aspects alone. But the same can be said in every single political party of any race... As Laharl, and the girls were welcomed and greeted by the nekomata, and the children were happy to see them it was good to see the settlement grow into soo much more. Their vacation was just starting...

UNEXPECTED COMPANY Location Belladonna's Mansion, Main Entrance

Another day passed since winter break, has started. Things were going soo peaceful. Kyoko and Kneesocks were spending time with Marron, Ruby and Cerberus took time to mentor and test the guards of the mansion, Raven was chilling in the library with Nero using the same room to paint in peace. Daki was helping the younger maids and nekomata with beauty tips. Mizore wanted to rest a bit more, so she's sleeping in Laharl's room, meanwhile Albedo was with Laharl and Belladonna in the music room. As Laharl, he was showing his mom more songs, and artist she'd might like. The song of UB40, Red Wine was playing. While he originally was skeptic of showing his mom a reggae love song, he decided to risk it and show his mom the song. Surprisingly even for her, she'd like it. And it was cause of UB40 cool rhythm and song that Belladonna was hooked. After the song finished he'd planned on playing "What Is Love" by Haddaway. When a maid came into his mom's...well one can call it a private music studio, at this point...needing to tell them, something. He paused the song, so the maid can speak without being interrupted or needing to yell to be heard. The orange bowl-cut maid, informed them that...their were guests... Guests, waiting for him and Lady Belladonna. He looked at his mom, and asked, "Were you expecting, anyone mom?" she shuke her head. Since it seems that whoever is waiting came for him, Laharl, he stretched his hand out to Albedo who was sitting next to him, and help her stand. As the three of them went to greet whoever these guests are.

When Laharl, Albedo, and Belladonna arrived at the main entrance. Laharl and Albedo felt their faces twitch, in clear annoyance. As in the doors, was Rias, Akeno, and Koneko standing there with luggage beside the three girls. Rias, she was waving at them, Akeno was smiling with her eyes closed, and Koneko in her usual expressionless face, eating a chocolate bar. Belladonna, she was the one to speak, "My Rias, what a surprise. But why did you bring luggage with you, on your visit?" Rias still smiling, said that she wasn't feeling like staying in Kuoh with Sona all busy. So instead she'd thought it be a great idea to spend winter break with family and a loved one. Rias, brought Akeno and Koneko since they'd would feel lonely without her, or Laharl-kun and the girls. Albedo, trying desperately not to shout, and do something to embarrass herself in front of her future mother-in-law, as secretly pinched herself to fight the eage to "do" something to Rias. But she still asked, "Is that so? So why aren't you at your parents' home?"

Albedo, she felt her beloved wrap his arm around her. Easing her anger. As Rias said...such a weak excuse that her parents were too busy, so she'd decided to visit her aunt instead, and stay over. Then Laharl asked, "You'd said that you brought Akeno and Koneko with you, cause they'll be lonely. But where's Kiba then?" Akeno answered that question, telling them that Kiba was staying with his girlfriends over the break. All Laharl thought was, "That's my Boi." since the conversation was going no where, Belladonna, she gave Rias and her peerage permission to stay. Much to the anguish of Albedo and Laharl. As Rias glump Laharl, and kissed him, before requesting him to carry her luggage, as she skipt along. Akeno and Koneko showed some gratitude and carrying their own luggage. That's how Rias came to stay over the break in the Belladonna Mansion...

SNOWY CITY DATE Location the Capital City of Lilith

Rias managed to worm her way into Laharl's and the girls' vacation back home. But the girls put their foot down, in not allowing Rias to sleep with Laharl in their bed. So at least they'd had some privacy at night, especially with Raven placing anti-teleportation barriers, to insure said privacy. With that issue taken care of the following rest of the week back in the Underworld, was actually enjoyable. Their new roommates in the break also had fun, with Koneko, she spent time playing game with Laharl, Ruby, and Cerberus, or sparing with Cerberus, or passing time in the Nekomata Settlement. Being welcomed and feeling like she was apart of a big family amongst her kind. Akeno would cook alongside Kyoko, or Albedo, or even Nero...or she'll try to tease the girl, along with flirting hard with Laharl. While Rias, she acted as she run the place...no surprise there...and demanded a lot time with Laharl, much to the growing annoyance of the girls. It was thanks to Belladonna, who put her foot down and scolded Rias, that she started to chill a bit.

Apart from that he and the girls decided to spend some time in a group date in Lilith. The city really did resemble, a modern day Tokyo, only with purple skies. It was lively, it was very similar to Tokyo, with food stands across the path and every building was light up, all they needed was...as Mizore, it was like she read everyone's mind. She'd used her ice magic to make it snow, all across the city. Causing all the devils in the city were amaze, as snow fell and gave the feel of winter in their realm. Mizore, she smiled and turned to her sisters and beloved, getting praises from the girls, and big, loving kiss from Laharl. She made the date better. Enjoying the sights and snow. They'd even found a homie Cafe to stop and eat. It was an incredible group date, they've had fun, bought a few things, and even shared a tender moment with their man...until they went back to the his mom's mansion. Both Akeno and Rias complained of being unfair for not including them in the date...he and the girls could only sweatdrop and sigh at their childish behavior...

DISCUSIONS Location the Capital City of Lilith: Central Tower of Lilim, Top Floor

Meanwhile in the private room of the Satan, a small meeting was being held by the Four Great Satans. Sirzechs, he was trying to convince his fellow Satans that they should consider forming a permanent peace treaty with the Grigori. Which was meet with utter disdain from Falbium, and surprisingly Serafall. As she stated that as long as Azazel is the helm of the Grigori, she'll be convinced that the fallen will cause more trouble for them. Especially since it spoke volumes that Azazel, he trusted on a unstable teen, who is the White Dragon Emperor to do a mission which could have resulted in the destruction of Kuoh. The death of many innocent souls, along with three prominent devil heirs, which are all related to either her or Sirzechs by the way!! Azazel, trusted that boy over all other subordinates, speaks a lot and loudly of Azazel's leadedship skills, her debate even made Ajuka who was neutral, think twice on his stance of this meeting. And she finished her rant by saying, "I don't want war. Just as or probably more then you guys. But...(she got a serious face, with such authority that even Sirzechs flinched)...making peace with such an unstable power structure, that the Grigori is right now, it's out of the question Sirzechs!!" Falbium yawning but agreed. Ajuka, stayed stoic and analytical as usual. And poor Sirzechs knew that he'd could push things further, as much as he truly believes that peace between them and the fallen would prove a great benefit. He needed support to achieve this feat, and regretfully he'll admit it Serafall has a point. Until there is something major that can tip the favor in cooperating with the fallen, Azazel's actions caused a major blow for further negotiations for now.

He sighed as he let that discussion end. And changed the subject to another thing that everyone was interested in. Laharl. Him a young devil, only sixteen has managed to do things they'd wished they could at his age. Plus he is the first devil in history, even by accident, managed to create a Sacred Gear. Along with having the great possibility to become the first Black Dragon Emperor, should Vritra Zanbato enter the Heavenly System, at the moment of his passing a whole legacy will begin...of course that something that won't happen for thousands of years. Ajuka, was especially impressed, he wants to schedule a private meeting with the young devil, and therolly inspect that sword of his, as well as test for the power class that he and those girls are. Apart from his newest acquisition name Nero Claudius, which some believe she is a hero-descendant from the original Emperor Nero. They have no idea on that girl's overall power, but Kyoko and the others, they can be described in one word, "Monsters". And the funny thing, apart from maybe Nero, none of Laharl's peerage were ever human, meaning these girls apart of the supernatural side, managed to stay under the radar of many devils. Growing in power that would have been welcomed among the higher ranking class of the devils. All the other Satans agreed with Ajuka's assessment.

Serafall suggested to consider Laharl and those girls to a class rank ascension. Laharl, he might be beyond high-class already, and those girls even Nero included could be firmly in high-class devils at the moment. Having such girls as pillars alongside Laharl, would be a major boon for all devil kind. Ajuka, Falbium, and Sirzechs agreed with her. Seems a class assessment must be conducted and check if those girls want to own their own peerages...but Sirzechs did commented that they might refuse, since that would make it harder to spend with Laharl, as he could see true love in all of them. And with a teasing look he said, "I also see that look in young Sona too. How does that..." he stopped as a menacing aura, shrouded Serafall and she'd has a look that promises pain, as she asked sweetly, "What was that, Sir-tan? I might have misheard you." sweating profusely, Sirzechs shut up, and replied "Nothing!!" as he changed the subject again. All to avoid Serafall's what upon him.
