A/N: Yo lads! This is a story I had planned before TBE but as I said on the other story, I'm not so sure whether I'll continue it or not, so I've decided to post the first chapter so you guys can let me know whether you'd like to see this story completed or not, just leave your comments and if I see enough interest from you I'll continue it. Be warned though, this story will be a second priority, meaning that if I do continue it, it will be updated less frequently.

Now before you begin reading the story, there are some thing you must know.

This story does not has Issei as its protagonist. Don't get me wrong, I like the bugger, he's funny and I really like him as a character, but the story I have in mind it's not fit for him as a protagonist. There are thing that I don't like about DXD, its over pervertedness for one, I mean yeah, I love tits as much as any healthy guy but DXD just takes it too far, I mean, Issei literally gets his power from breasts, that's just too much. This story is more mature and I know it may sound hypocritical from me when this story literally begins with a lemon but I don't want this one to be about a perverted boy, there will be sex but it will be a more mature sex.

The location and overall culture of the setting has completely been changed, meaning that the story does not takes place in Japan, I have moved it into a more familiar location simply because I don't want to go to the trouble of investigating things about Japan. So the location, the language, the Academy, the cultures, some names and the overall setting, it's completely set in Europe, my continent. The only names or characters that I didn't acclimated to a new background are the ones specified to be Asian in cannon, characters like Tsubaki for example have not lost their ethnicity, but characters like Kiba HAVE, so bear that in mind when you read this. If you do not like this, then turn back right now.

Ages have also been changed in this story, Rias is 23, already in her third year of College. This is because as I said, I want this story to be more mature, so it will revolve around their college years.

As I said in the first point, this story revolves around an OC, I'll give you lads a little summary so you can known him a bit. His name is Derek Hamilton, he's 22, English and comes from a powerful family, he's basically royalty. He's also averse to commitment and as cold as ice, but he is also the most loyal friend you can get, he's a dragon so he is as protective as any other dragon. Yes I have used my real name simply because I had no mind to think of another one at the time, you're basically about to read my fantasy DXD world with me as its protagonist. I hope you lads like British protagonists, know that I will portray my countrymen as we truly are, a bunch of uncouth pricks.

That's it, so let's go.

'Derek' - Thought.

"Derek" - Derek mentally speaking.

"Ddraig" - Ddraig/Albion speaking through the Sacred Gears/Divinities talking.

"Ddraig" - Ddraig speaking inside Derek's mind.


Homecoming

"Ah… ah… D-Derek… a-ah… ri-right there…" The sound of a moaning woman reverberated throughout the whole room while speaking in her native Czech. The woman was around her forties but she had the look of a twenty year old, her long brown hair was splattered all over her desk and the only thing the beautiful woman was wearing were her stockings and her panties that were hanging from her right ankle. She was currently embracing tightly the object that was supplying her with untold amounts of pleasure, pleasure she could only feel from the young man inside her arms and body.

"Ah dammit… f-for someone who a-already had children… you're a-as tight as e-ever, Ilona…" A masculine voice that spoke in the same language said while increasing his pounding over the delighted woman, making the sounds of skin clashing against skin reverberate even louder.

"A-Ah… s-shut up… yo- ah… y-you're seriously making me c-consider leaving m-my husband for you…" The now identified Ilona said while tightening her embrace before she kissed the handsome man fiercely. They then separated and she couldn't help but feel enamoured by the unworldly handsomeness of the youth currently pounding her vagina with reckless abandon. The young man had a beautiful and rare natural dark-silver tint on his short hair, deep blue eyes, a face carved by the finest Greek sculptors and a body that looked like it belonged to a professional athlete, he was simply irresistible, so much so that she didn't even felt bad for constantly cheating her husband with the youngster.

Derek just gritted his teeth at that, she sounded genuinely willing to leave her family for him, a thing that he of course was not okay with. Not because he thought it wrong since he was right now having sex with the owner of the club he's been working as a bartender for the past seven months, six of which he has been sleeping with the married woman, obviously taking away any kind of moral ground from him. The reason for his distaste at such thing is because he is averse to commitment, he's content with providing pleasure to the opposite sex whenever a female approaches him, that is his thing, the man that fulfils their carnal desires, not the one they came to with their troubles. Sure, he was a loyal and caring friend, even if his usual cold demeanour spoke against it, but when it came to commitments, he sucked badly.

"A-Ah… baby!… I-I'm t-there!" Ilona then screamed while scratching his back with her long nails painfully, she was also arching her back while throwing her head against the desk and locking her legs behind his butt to stop him from releasing outside of her. Then, in a silent scream, she released her own sexual liquids all over the silverette's mid-section, delicious a delicious shiver running all over her excited body as she came.

Derek just grunted while biting lightly the nipple of the middle-aged female before he released his own fluids inside the awaiting womb of the brunette, not worrying a bit since he already knew that the woman was infertile due to her age.

The pair then just slumped on the desk, with Ilona catching her breath while gently caressing the back of the young man who was resting his body on top of hers, his face trapped between her arms and her breasts, "Oh… M-Mr Hamilton… gigigi… a-always showing m-me that 'Employee of the month' vigour…" Ilona said in between breaths, basking in the afterglow of their actions.

Derek just snorted at her words before he detached himself from her body and walked away towards his clothes, clothing himself back while wincing when he saw Ilona's needy eyes, not feeling comfortable with the attachment the woman appears to have developed, "Don't give me that look, we've already been fucking for almost two hours, people will suspect…" He huffed at that, knowing that the club's workers already had the suspicion, "Even more than that they already do, that is."

Ilona just pouted while getting herself up on a sitting position on the edge of her desk, looking down at her lap and feeling aroused again when she saw the evidence of their misdeed flowing out of her core, but said arousal collapsed the moment she remembered that the young man was not interested in any kind of attachment. She knows well he sleeps with many, including some of her own employees, but she had that slight hope that he might one day change and magically say I want to be with you Ilona, a dream yes, but a girl can dream. She shook her head to rid her mind of her slight depression before she commented, "Y-Yeah… I'll clean here, so you can go home now." She sent a small sad smile at the silverette.

Derek just sighed at seeing her depressed look, he knows that she feels hurt but he really just didn't have it in him to stay in one place with one person. But still, he genuinely cares for Ilona, so he walked towards her and gave her a small yet tender kiss on her cheek before he headed towards the door of the office to leave a stunned Ilona grabbing the cheek he kissed looking at the door as it closed, sighing dreamily as the man that made her feel like a teenager again promptly disappeared.

After he stepped out of the room, he closed the door and sighed tiredly once again while pressing his forehead on the door, 'What is this goddamn feeling?…' He was feeling a strange nervousness creeping inside his body, as if his gut was telling him that something bad was about to happen.

"Perhaps you're falling for the female inside." A divine voice then said inside his mind, the voice was rough and had an amused glint in it, seemingly entertained by the silverette's dilemma.

That's right, Derek Hamilton is no normal male. He's the possessor of a Sacred Gear, an artefact gifted to those with human blood created by the Biblical God himself so that humans have a chance to fight back against supernatural and/or divine beings. Even so, his Sacred Gear was even rarer than the rest, his was, according to the being it guarded, a Longinus, simply put, a god-tier class Sacred Gear that holds the power to bring even the strongest of Gods down. Inside his, resides the soul of an ancient beast, a god-class dragon that required the many mythologies around to unite in order to stop him from his enraged rampage, the soul that was now intertwined to his, practically making him a two in one existence, is the soul of the ancient Welsh Dragon, Y Ddraig Goch.

Derek discovered the existence of his power and the rest of the supernatural world at a relatively tender age, ten years old was he when he found out he was this generation's Red Dragon Emperor. He would reminisce of how he found out about it, if it weren't so damn painful to remember such event.

The Hamilton youngster just snorted before he replied mentally while walking down the stairs towards the club's bar area, "As if, she's fantastic, but that's not it… I just feel like… something is about to change, you know?…"

"Then we can only wait and see." Ddraig replied to his partner before he went silent, seemingly on one of his regular naps.

Derek just continued his walk until he finally reached the bar, where he grabbed the rubbish bag and took it outside the club, where he threw it inside the large dustbin placed on the alley behind the establishment. He cleaned his hands after he did so and just as he turned around, he saw a limousine parked there but with the motor still running. Soon later, the door of the car opened and from it, a man that seemed to be in his early fifties walked out, wearing a dark expensive coat and had an overall gentlemen-like demeanour.

"Well, there you go." The mighty red dragon mentally butt in with a bit of mirth in his voice.

"Fuck off…" The young Hamilton replied before he spoke, now in his mother language, to the man who was now standing before him, "Took you long enough to find me, Charles." His voice was revealed to have an English accent while he sent the man a teasing smirk, crossing his arms and leaning coolly against the dustbin.

The now identified Charles just sighed with exasperation before he sent an appreciative glance over at the silver-haired youth, who was wearing casual marine jeans, a black buttoned shirt and was carrying on his shoulder what Charles assumed to be his bartender apron. The man looked back at the amused young man's blue eyes and questioned with his elegant British voice, "Master Derek, must you wear such… cheap… clothing?"

Derek just snorted as he replied, "Cut me some slack Charles, I'm not my grandfather."

"Mm… certainly not…" Charles then agreed with a teasing tone that made Derek twitch his eyebrows in irritation at the jab, "It matters not, we must go now, Master Derek."

Derek just sighed tiredly while massaging his temples, saying with clear annoyance etched in his voice, "I have no choice now do I?…" Charles just shook his head in no, making the silverette groan in defeat before he added, "Alright then, let me say my goodbyes."

Charles nodded and stepped aside to allow Derek to go inside the club and say his goodbyes. It took the silverette some minutes to come out again, but once he did, Derek nodded at Charles who dutifully opened the door of the limousine for the silverette and then stepped inside after him, urging the driver to begin their ride.

Once in the car, Derek served himself a glass of the whisky placed on a mini-bar inside the vehicle, sipping it delightedly before he inquired, "Alright then, what does the old man wants?"

Charles was currently sitting in a proper manner while looking at the silverette with a little bit of amusement, knowing that the young man he has been caring for ever since he was a kid was going to be mad at the news, "Master Jonathan wishes for you to go to college, young Derek." He just smiled charmingly while seeing the now annoyed youngster.

Groaning loudly in protest, Derek quickly declared his disagreement, "What!? What the hell for!? And why, oh why should I even listen to him!?"

"Master Jonathan has expressed his desire for you to return to your rightful place as the Hamilton heir, he has already allowed you to wander around the world for twelve years, so now, he wishes for you to return to your studies so you can be ready to take over his place in the Hamilton family once he retires." Charles explained calmly, still a little bit amused at the young Hamilton's displeasure.

"For fucks sakes…" Derek muttered while reclining his head on his seat, looking at the roof of the car before he brought his gaze back towards his family's attendant to say, "What about Alice? John? Matthew? Fuck, even Emily for god's sakes? Why not any of them or the youngest? Why me?"

Charles then used a chiding tone when he replied, "Now, now young Derek, you very well know that while your older cousins are smart, save for young Emily of course, they are still too… bratty… for taking such important role…" Charles sighed before he continued, "Your sister, while being even smarter than you, is too kind-hearted to take on the spot as the Matriarch. The youngest are still, well, young, for such role…" He then gestured at Derek as he continued, "You however are not only smart, you are also cunning, fierce and strong willed, you don't cower not even under Master Jonathan's gaze, that makes you the only one capable to deal with the family's… darkest… allies and businesses, things that none of your cousins nor sister can do."

Derek just cursed himself mentally, he couldn't really refute those words because he knows what being the patriarch of the Hamilton family, one of the most powerful and influential families in the world, means. The fact that the family also has some questionable businesses and allies makes him the perfect candidate to take the place as the next patriarch, even if he didn't wanted.

"We are here, young master." Charles then claimed before he stepped out of the limousine and held the door open for Derek.

Derek nodded his thanks and walked out of the car to see that they were in Prague's airport, where one of the Hamilton family's private jet was waiting for them. Still annoyed, he walked at it none the less and boarded it, not really bothering to get any of his belongings since he really didn't had anything of importance. Plus, the house he was staying at belonged to him anyway, so there was no problem in leaving his things here.

Charles walked inside the jet and took the seat in front of Derek as he said, "You should take a short nap young master, I can see you… exhausted… yourself with your… activities."

Derek just chuckled at Charles knowing that he just had sex, but not really able to deny it, he just nodded his head and closed his eyes, already knowing that his life was about to take on a troublesome route.


"Ah… Charles… this ain't London, mate." Derek muttered with confusion after his family's private jet landed on the airstrip. He could see the city they arrived to from the jet's window and knew that they were not in England.

Charles just opened the door of the limousine waiting for them inside the airport and after the two got inside the car, explained, "That is because your grandfather is not in London young master, we are currently in Luxembourg City."

Derek just narrowed his eyes in confusion since he believed that they were to arrive at London, so making his confusion known, he inquired, "Luxembourg City? The fuck are we doing in Luxembourg?"

Charles just chuckled a little before he answered his young charge's question, "This is where you will be attending college, your grandfather is already here, waiting for you at your new house."

The young Hamilton just felt more confused, so asked, "Here? Why here? I would have guessed that he wanted me to go to UCL, ICL or even KCL, you know, so he could keep an eye on me back in London."

"It was indeed a possibility, but it appears that Master Jonathan felt it necessary to send you to a new place, since he was worried that your… acquaintances… back in London would be a distraction for you, young Derek." Charles explained.

Derek just sighed tiredly while looking at the beautiful capital city of Luxembourg, he had no real problems with this since he really didn't have many acquaintances anymore, only those with whom he find it easy to truly trust, so he really only had two or three people he may call 'friend' back in London, people he had almost ten years without any sort of contact, "The name of the school I'm going, what is it?" He then asked when he looked back at the grizzly-haired man.

"Ah yes…" Charles responded before he grabbed a little flier he had kept in the pocket of his expensive coat and once he got it, the old man handed it to Derek and added, "You are going to 'Luxembourg Academy', an affordable high-class school."

Derek looked at the small pamphlet in his hand and examined it intently, he read it for some moments before he commented, "It used to be a girls-only Academy just a year ago, why the change?"

Charles just shrugged his shoulders as he replied, "I'm afraid I don't have the information you seek, young master, I believe that perhaps, they needed more money to be able to compete with the rest…" Charles then looked at the big medieval yet elegant building their car just passed by and added, "Lady Eleanor wanted you to attend to University of Luxembourg, she wanted you to be around your fellow royalty youth, but Master Jonathan said that you would get even angrier, seeing that you hate everything considered royalty."

Derek just snorted with a smirk, somewhat happy that his grandmother did not get her wish of sending him to a renowned university where most of the royal children and heirs of powerful families attend to, "Damn right I would, I fucking hate those pompous asses, I rather go to a normal school, less tenuous." He muttered as he eyed the flier again.

Charles just sighed tiredly, already used to the youngster's less than approachable attitude, "Yes, Lady Eleanor was most regretful…" He then saw that the limousine had stopped and after the driver opened the door for them, Charles declared, "Well Master Derek, we are here."

Derek got out of the car after Charles and there outside, he saw his new home. A cosy yet a little big house painted in white, two floors, a medium sized front yard but he could see that there was a bigger backyard by looking at the small paths by the sides of the house. The house really looked expensive and there was a black BMW parked inside the garage that had a fancy glass door, "Sigh… At least he didn't built me a fucking mansion…" Derek muttered, a little annoyed by the fanciness since he has spent the last twelve years living in small apartments, sometimes even sharing them with someone else.

Derek then started to walk towards the house since he knew that his grandfather was probably inside waiting for him, but before he opened the front yard door, Charles said, "Master Derek… it is good to see you again, my boy." He looked back to see a smiling Charles who just this once broke his attendant-self to call him the way he used to when he was a kid.

"It's nice to see you too, you old fool." Derek said back with a small smile, he missed the old man as well since it has been ten years since he last saw him and he has always been like a father to him.

After the nice goodbye with his family's butler, he walked inside the yard and soon made his way towards the front door, opening it to walk inside the house and see that it was quite luxurious with its white walls and grey ornaments, noticing that it was furbished with top quality furniture. He made his way towards the lounge where he came across an extremely elegant man who seems to be in his late fifties.

The man, strangely, had midnight black hair with no trace of grey in it whatsoever as the people his age usually have, he still retained a handsome and manly face and was exuding an intimidating presence of power, not physical nor mystical, but political power. He was wearing a black expensive suit and had a dark-grey rain coat over it, he was reading a paper while he drank a cup of what Derek could detect by smell as green tea, his grandfather's favourite. This man was Jonathan Hamilton, patriarch of the Hamilton family and one of the five most powerful men in the world.

"Ah son, you're finally here." The man greeted before he stood up and walked towards the silverette to hug his grandson whom he hadn't seen in almost six years now.

"Yeah, it's good to see you too, Pops." Derek greeted back while returning the hug with a small smile, even if he didn't show it, he was a little happy to see the old man.

Jonathan then released the hug and made his way back to the couch he was previously sitting on and after he placed his butt back on the comfy seat, he spoke, "I guess you have many questions for me?"

Derek just took off his rain coat, sat on a single sofa and sighed tiredly, not really knowing what to ask since he was still a little annoyed by the whole ordeal, so after some seconds of silence, he began, "Well, what the hell old man? I'm not interested in taking your place, you should let John do it, I'm a dragon, being a patriarch will cage me and dragons hate cages."

Jonathan just sighed, already expecting the small outburst. He just replied with a calm tone in his elegant voice, "That may be, and while John would make a good patriarch as well, he lacks what it takes to plant face to our most… dangerous… allies. And you said it yourself, you're a dragon, the apex predator of us all, your mere presence demands respect and that is the most important thing to lead our family." Jonathan was not speaking metaphorically, he knew who his grandson was and what is sealed inside him, he knows very well because one of the Hamilton's dangerous allies he just mentioned, are one of the royal devil families of the Underworld.

Derek just sighed in defeat, already knowing that there was no way to convince his grandfather to change his mind. But, he still asked one last time, "There's no possible way for you to drop it, right?"

Jonathan just chuckled a little as he took a sip of his tea before he replied, "No Derek, I already allowed you to roam free for twelve years…" He could see that his grandson was about to retort with something, so Jonathan added quickly, "Even if four of those twelve years you officially spent them on the military, you still had free reign on where to go, a reign you certainly took advantage of…" Derek just snorted at that, not really having anything to retort those words with, so Jonathan continued, "But now is time for you to take your responsibility as the heir."

"You do remember that I'm adopted, right?" Derek countered, a small sour tone in his voice present.

Jonathan just sighed annoyed when he stood up and walked towards the silver-haired Hamilton, he bumped him hard on the head once he reached him before Jonathan said, "It doesn't matter if you don't have the Hamilton blood, you have our values and traditions, you were raised in this family ever since you were five months old, so stop your whining."

Derek just massaged his sore head but nodded none the less, knowing that while he didn't have the Hamilton blood, he was a Hamilton through and through, "Alright then, I get it, I'll go to college here."

Jonathan just smiled a little as he said, "Good…" The patriarch then turned towards the glass door that leads to the backyard and staring at the view, he added, "Be wary though, this city and country are in Devils' control, they surely already noticed your presence, so the probabilities that the heiress of this land…" Jonathan massaged his chin as if thinking before he continued, "Rias Gremory, that's the name of the heiress according to Solomon. She will surely approach you since she is a student of Luxembourg Academy as well…" He then turned to look at Derek and ordered, "Keep your status as this generation's Red Dragon Emperor hidden for now, it will attract attention and I know you hate attention. But if you do decide to entangle yourself with the heiress, then make sure the family gets something out of it."

Ah, there it is, the cunning and somewhat evil side of Jonathan Hamilton, a man that has the power to start World War Three at his mere word since one of his children is the Supreme Commander of NATO's forces, not to say that he was the Supreme Commander of the UK's Royal Army. He is so powerful that the devil he had a contract with was none other than Solomon Agares, the Lord of the Agares clan, one of the most powerful and influential clans in Devils' society, it's why Jonathan is so informed on the supernatural world. That also played part in Derek telling his grandfather the truth about him, simply because while Jonathan is a devious man who always looks for weaknesses to exploit in both enemies and allies, he's also brutally honest, so much so that if he wanted to kill you he would tell you face to face and do it himself. Honesty is one of the things that Derek valued the most and that is why his grandfather is one of the few he genuinely trusts.

"Decide to? You have no problems with me turning into a devil?" Derek then asked with his silver eyebrow raised, really surprised at those words.

Jonathan just shrugged his shoulders as he replied, "I really don't care, it is your life and your decision. The only thing I care and that I will force you to do is to not forget your family, you may turn into a devil, an angel, a fallen angel or whatever you wish, as long as you protect our family, I do not care."

Derek just chuckled a little, finding it really amusing yet relieving to see that his grandfather still allowed him to make his own decisions, somewhat. He turned back to the Hamilton patriarch and relented, "Fine, I'll be careful, I really doubt I'll join either side since it will practically be the same as caging myself, but I'll keep an eye out for the Gremory girl, she's a devil so she will obviously have devious motives."

Jonathan nodded while saying, "Indeed, while sometimes said motives are not really harmful for the rest, they are still creatures of deceit…" He then began to walk towards the door and after fixing his coat, turned to look at his grandson from his shoulder and said, "I must return to London now, I'm sure you'll fit in right away, so I'll let you acclimate to your new surroundings. Your sister is eager to see you by the way, so she will undoubtedly come here one day."

Derek just chuckled fondly at that, remembering the only person he has ever truly shown any kind of genuine love, his little sister, "It's okay, just give her a key to the house…" He then stood up and walked his grandfather outside to the limousine and said before he left, "Give grandma a hug from me."

Jonathan nodded and with that, he urged the driver to get a move on and soon, left the premises. Derek just stood there, looking at the distancing car before he looked back at his new house and after a heavy sigh, muttered, "So fucking troublesome."


"Fucking… hell…" A clearly annoyed voice was heard saying inside a luxurious room. The voice belonged to a drowsy silver-haired youth who was currently trying to blow a big stream of fire towards his alarm clock, the responsible of his morning plight.

"Turn that damn thing off already." Ddraig then mentally said to his partner, clearly angered by the constant noise.

Derek just reluctantly sat on his bedside and smashed the annoying alarm clock with his left fist, he could already tell that he was a little late but he just didn't give a damn, "Fucking school." He uttered while scratching his head.

He stood up and headed towards the shower where he merely washed his body and hair and left without wasting more time. After his five minutes shower, he grabbed the Academy's uniform and snorted out, "I'm definitely not using all these rubbish." The uniform consisted of a black blazer with white accents, a white long-sleeved button-down shirt with vertical linings, a black ribbon on the collar, matching black pants and brown dress shoes.

"Too much white." Ddraig commented, showing his displeasure towards the colour.

Derek chuckled as he said, "True…" Thanks to him being the Red Dragon Emperor, Derek couldn't help but inherit some of his partner's traits.

The young Hamilton just wore the black pants and the blazer, with a crimson coloured shirt underneath it and a pair of black and white sneakers. With that, he headed downstairs and grabbed his car's keys, he went to the garage and got inside the black automobile and headed off towards his new school.

It took him roughly twenty minutes, meaning he already lost the first class, but once he got there, he saw that the place was huge, there were many buildings inside the huge campus, four particularly bigger than the rest, "Must be the Elementary Building…" He said while walking by a medium sized building with many kids running around, "Secondary and Upper School are together I see…" He added while now passing by a big building with teenagers inside, looking at him intently, "Fucking hell… fangirls…" He muttered annoyed after already hearing the squeaks and giggles of the teenagers and some of the seniors passing by him. He then finally arrived to the biggest building, a huge castle-like place with a medieval look yet elegant, "This must be the University Building." He muttered while looking at his surroundings.

"Yes it is, are you new to this school?" A feminine voice then said behind him, making him turn around to face a young bespectacled woman with slim figure, black hair styled in a short bob cut and violet eyes. At her side, was another girl although taller than the first one, bespectacled as well, with long straight black hair that extends all the way down to her knees, with split bangs and light brown eyes, the female in question had a more mature body than the one that spoke, but Derek could tell that she was even more reserved.

'So there is another high-class devil here, huh?…' Derek thought while looking at the two blackettes who were looking at him with huge interest, he already knew them to be devils due to their distinctive smell of tainted energy and sulphur. He just smirked charmingly at them, making them both blush lightly, before he answered, "Yeah, today is my first day although I'm going straight to second year."

The high-class devil looked at him a little before she commented dryly, "You're almost an hour late."

Derek just shrugged his shoulders as he replied uncaringly, "So?…" He then walked a little closer and asked, "Who are you anyway?"

The woman in question shook her head a little to rid her mind of the strange attraction she just felt before she answered the question, "A-Ah right… ahem… I am Sonia Scholz, Student Council President…" She gestured towards her companion and added, "This right here is my Vice President, Tsubaki Shinra." The female in question just bowed politely, revealing her Asian traditions.

Derek just nodded slightly before he replied, "I'm Derek Hamilton, nice meeting you."

The two girls then went a wide-eyed before the identified Tsubaki declared, "Derek Hamilton!? From THE Hamilton Family!?…" The silverette just nodded with a raised eyebrow, prompting her to continue with a stutter and a cute blush, "I'm sorry is j-just… u-umm…"

Seeing that her companion was having difficulties, Sonia decided to explain their surprise when she said, "The news that the heir of the Hamilton family was coming here to Luxembourg to study reached the whole country, y-you are umm… a very s-sought out man… ahem… our surprise is because we all thought that you would be attending UL, not here."

Derek just grunted before he responded, "And be around a bunch of spoiled brats? No thanks, I like simple things and plus, this school has a very good football team, I'm not passing that up."

The two females just stared at him a little, still somewhat surprised that one of the most sought out bachelors in the world has decided to attend here. But their stiffness is not all due to the young Hamilton's handsomeness or cool attitude, half of it is due to a feeling in their devil gut telling them that he was quite a dangerous individual, not in a malicious way, but still dangerous, "V-Very well… umm… Tsubaki…" Sonia then said while cleaning her glasses, drawing the attention of her vice president, "Please escort Mr Hamilton to his classroom, I'm sure his teacher is already confused by his absence."

Tsubaki shook her head a little before she replied shyly, "R-Right…" She then walked towards the boy and urged, "P-Please follow m-me, Mr H-Hamilton."

Derek nodded and began to follow the girl while he sent an unnoticeable sidelong glance at Sonia, who was intently watching his back, undoubtedly already knowing that he was not normal, "Tsubaki, call me Derek, I hate the 'Mr' thing." He said to the shaky girl, who nodded a little timidly at him.

As they walked through the building, he sighed tiredly when he could already hear the excited murmurs of the girls and the silent threats of the boys, but as he walked past a stairway, something at the top caught his attention. A beautiful red-haired blue-eyed buxom girl alongside an equal beauty with dark hair and violet eyes, they were both intently looking at him, almost as if they were trying to stare at his bare soul, their gazes were not ill intended though, but curious, 'That must be the Gremory heiress and her right hand man… girl…' He thought after taking away his eyes from theirs.

The pair walked for some minutes until they finally arrived at a door where Tsubaki turned to look at him and said, "W-Well M… um… I mean… D-Derek… ahem… this is your classroom, please go inside and refrain from further lateness."

"Yes mommy." Derek said to the now embarrassed girl who quickly made her way towards who knows where. Derek knocked on the door and at the sound of a feminine come in, he opened it and made his way inside the classroom.

The teacher was a little startled at seeing the new student that was supposed to arrive today, she had thought that he was not going to show up but here he was, an hour late, standing nonchalantly in all his handsome glory, 'C-Control yourself, w-woman…' The teacher then chided herself for starting daydreaming about her new student. She regained her control though and said, "A-Ah, you must be the new s-student, though, could you e-explain why the tardiness?"

Derek just shrugged before he answered without a care, "New country, new time zone, new environment, no want to come…" The teacher looked baffled at the boy's lack of care as well as the class who were looking at him eagerly, "I'm surprised to see you all speaking English, I would have thought I'd had to speak in French, learn German or Luxembourgish." He then said, genuinely surprised to see that the Academy's official language seemed to be English, convenient indeed.

The teacher coughed slightly before she replied, "Ah yes, well… umm… E-English is the official worldwide b-business language, so we all speak it here in the Academy…" The female instructor then requested, "Could you please introduce yourself to the class and me? My name is Claire Deulofeu, your new teacher." She nodded with a smile in greeting.

"Sure…" Derek replied while sending a charming smirk at the blonde good looking teacher before he turned towards the class and introduced himself, "My name is Derek Hamilton, nice to meet you all, I guess…" The whole room then stayed quiet, even the teacher seemed surprised at the revelation of his name, so seeing the surprise, the silverette inquired annoyed, "What the hell is with your surprised looks?"

It was a brunette girl who answered his question when she managed to break herself out of her stupor and said with a little stutter, "A-Amm… well… is j-just that… y-your arrival to the capital w-was quite e-expected, although, w-we all thought y-you would go to UL…"

His teacher then added with some meek in her voice, "Y-Yes, it does seems a m-more… umm… fitting place f-for someone of your s-stature."

Derek just sighed annoyed at that and said, "My stature? I'm a fucking twenty-two years old boy who loves football, music and pizza, I may belong to a powerful family, but I'm not a fucking Prince, neither of you are below me or above me."

They all got even more surprised at that, since they've had some contact with the royalty from the University of Luxembourg in the past, they had thought that he was arrogant like the rest but here he was, clearly speaking and asking to be spoken to as a normal guy, even cursing in the middle of class, unknowingly earning him more points in the eyes of the female population who were already drooling all over him.

"A-Alright… umm… c-can you take a s-sit over there?" Claire then directed while timidly pointing at a clear desk beside a window at the back of the classroom, just how he likes it.

Derek did as told and made his way towards his new seat, ignoring all the looks he was receiving, especially the ones from two boys who seem to hate him religiously. He just slumped on his seat and watched the cute teacher do her job, smirking a little whenever she blushed after making eye contact with him.

The rest of the day for the Hamilton went on with relative tranquillity, except for lunch time where most of his female classmates asked for him to join them, which he politely refused. It was now finally that classes were over and he was tiredly making his way towards his car, once again ignoring all the awed female and hostile male looks sent his way, surely the truth of who he was has already reached the whole campus, if not the whole damned city.

"Hey, Prince." A rough voice suddenly forced Derek to stop on his tracks to look at the talker, a blond somewhat muscular man, roughly his age, maybe a year or two older, he was wearing a jacket with the Academy's football team badge etched on it, obviously a team he was a part of, with two more boys at his sides as if they were his guards. Derek could see that this blond was the Bully King around the school, probably wanting to assert his dominance.

"What is it, Vanilla Cupcake?" Derek jabbed back while looking at the blond with bored eyes, secretly placing his dragon's oppressive aura around them to scare them a bit.

Which it worked because the silverette could see that the three brutes now were a little unsure of their moves, seemingly aware of an ominous pressure creeping up their bodies. The blond leader still managed to recover his bravery when he said back, "W-Who you calling 'Vanilla Cupcake'!?"

The people that were gathering around them snickered almost silently at that, Derek could also see from the corner of his eye that the black-haired girl that stood beside the Gremory heiress earlier in the day was here present too, looking at the scene intently, but her tense muscles told him that she was willing to interfere on his defence, probably, "Who are you calling 'Prince'?" Derek replied, with more annoyance clear in his voice.

The blond guy then closed his distance almost at arm's reach before he said in between gritted teeth, "Listen you little blue-blooded prick, you're far away from your elegant territory and I don't see your guards anywhere, so you should be mindful in how you speak to the one who runs this place."

Derek just sighed annoyed before he looked at his phone to look at the time, he turned back to the angry blond and said, "Listen mate, I'm tired, hungry and sleepy, and I tend to get really, really easily riled up when I'm any of those things, so could you cordially fuck off so I can make my way to my precious bed?"

The blond was now cracking his knuckles, feeling really irritated to see that the silverette didn't even batted an eye at his threats, so wanting to show him and the gathered crowd who's boss, he walked closer and threatened, "Don't make me humil…"

The silverette cut him off however, when he warned with the same bored tone, "I'm giving you three seconds to fuck off mate, otherwise, I'm going to smash your head on that locker."

The blond felt his blood boil even hotter at the threat, but he could not understand why there was a frightening shiver running down his spine when he was looking straight at the silverette's eyes.

"One." The silverette said.

The blond brute still stood his ground but he was shaking a little, for a reason he just didn't know.

"Two." Derek continued his count while increasing his ominous presence, making sure that only he and the three stooges in front of him could sense it, he didn't wanted to alert the black-haired girl after all.

The blond's two companions tensed a little, not knowing why like their leader, were feeling like this was a really bad idea.

"Three." Derek finished, making the whole crowd gasp and cover their eyes when they saw the blond brute cocking his fist back to hit the royal youth, none of them wanted to see the handsome newcomer getting his ass kicked.

The blackette known as Akeno tensed when she saw the blond sending his fist forward, she was about to jump in and defend the silverette but went wide-eyed and gasped alongside the rest of the crowd when said silverette, out of nowhere, had already smashed the face of the blond on the locker next to them, just like he promised. The blonde crashed with such force that a big dent was left in the locker, just before the silver-haired royal let his limp body fall to the ground, clearly unconscious.

Derek looked down at the unconscious form of his would-be attacker before he walked towards his two stunned companions who tensed when the silverette approached them, "Anything else I can help you lads with?" Derek said with a bored look on his face. The two stunned brutes just shook their heads in no, affrightedly, prompting Derek to continue his walk towards his car, but he left some parting words to the two still stunned bullies, "Tell the coach that I'm joining the football team and that I want the number ten on my jersey, understood?" He then left without waiting for an answer, knowing that the two stooges would do as told.

Akeno just stared almost lustfully at the retreating form of the silverette, she was still surprised but mostly wary of him, because the speed in which he attacked the notorious main bully of the school was even faster than she, a half fallen angel half devil, could even follow, "What are you?" She just muttered as she turned back and made her way towards her club's room to inform the head devil around of the events that had just transpired.


"Ah, Sona, come on in." A melodic and posh voice said after a knock came to the room's door. The voice belonged to a beautiful crimson-haired female with blue eyes and a figure that seemed to belong to a goddess, she was currently sitting on her club president's chair, listening to the latest events of her school as told by her black-haired best friend.

The door of the club room then opened and soon, eight figures walked inside the room, revealing them to be the members of the Student Council. Sona looked around the room and saw that it was filled with the members of the Occult Research Club, a young handsome boy was drinking some tea and reading a book while sitting on one of the two couches in the room. Across him, a small girl who appeared to be no older than fifteen but Sona knew that she was just entering her nineteen's was sitting in the other couch while eating some snacks. And the last member of the ORC besides the president, was standing beside said crimson-haired president, "I see Akeno has already told you of today's… remarkable… events." Sona, aka Sonia Scholz said while walking towards her fellow devil.

"Yes, ufufufu, I was just telling Rias how manly our new boy looked at handling that brute so easily." Akeno said while giggling seductively.

Rias just looked back at Sona and questioned, "I trust you managed to find something about him?" She had asked her friend to find something about the past and the overall life of the silver-haired Hamilton because the moment he stepped in Luxembourg, her gut screamed at her that he was just what she so desperately needed to get out of her problem.

Sona grabbed a folder and gave it to Rias before she replied, "Actually no, there wasn't really that much information about him in the school records, not even in my family's records…" All the occupants in the room raised their eyebrows at that, hearing that one of the most important clans of the Underworld had no records of someone was a rare thing to hear, "Only some interesting things, a few, but quite interesting indeed."

Rias rummaged through the folder and saw that there was nothing of relevance in it, so knowing that whatever Sona found had to be from official government records, she urged eagerly, "Do tell."

Sona then took a seat on the couch, just next to the petite white-haired girl, and said, "From the beginning then. The records of his childhood are quite regular, attended Garden House School, one of the most prestigious private schools in London, not so much of a prodigy in academics, but a huge prospect in sports."

Rias nodded at that while adding, "Yes, I know that much, he was seen as the next British football superstar if I'm correct."

Sona nodded and agreed, "Yes, it is as you say…" She thanked Akeno for the tea she prepared for her and then continued, "However, his life took a dark turn at the age of ten…" Seeing that everyone, even her peerage, were intrigued by her words, she explained, "As you all know, his family has a lot of companies around the world. For what I found, his father, James Hamilton, wanted to open a subsidiary of Hamilton Industries in Brussels. When Derek was ten, the building was scheduled to be finished, so James Hamilton went personally to oversee the new building along with his wife, Elena Hamilton, and Derek himself, the strange thing though was that both of his parents died in a mysterious car accident the day before the inauguration, but that's not it, the same night that they died, Derek was apparently left with some attendants in the hotel they were staying at, a hotel that suddenly burst into flames the very same night."

They all fell silent at that, really surprised to hear such event, "An attempt on the Hamilton family?" The blond feminine male in the room asked with a soft voice.

Sona shrugged while saying, "Who knows? The only thing known is that a hundred and fifty-nine people died inside that hotel, with Derek being the only survivor, sporting some third degree burns on his body."

"Poor little thing." Akeno muttered with her palm covering her mouth, feeling really sorry for the silverette, surviving such a thing just to know that your parents are dead was quite a cruel play from fate.

"Indeed…" Sona said while sipping her tea again. She then continued, "From there on is where his story becomes strange, he completely disappeared from official records since that day, no schools, no home addresses, not even medical records of him for eight years."

Rias just leaned back on her seat and said, "Is not that surprising really, for what my brother and father told me about his family, the patriarch, Jonathan, is quite a powerful and influential man, capable to even wage war against the devils if he so wishes to." The rest of the room, save for Sona, gasped at that, they knew that humanity was indeed capable of fighting against supernatural beings but it required a huge army to do so, a man capable of doing such a thing was a terrifying thought.

"Not just that…" Sona said before she placed her tea cup on the table in front of her. She then looked at Rias and commented, "According to my father, Mr Jonathan Hamilton has a contract with none other than Lord Agares."

Now, that really made them all, including Rias, gasp loudly, a human with a contract with one of the most powerful and influential men in the Underworld spoke of a very powerful human, and not just in the human world.

"S-Sona… you said he disappeared officially from the map for eight years, that means he reappeared four years ago?" Rias then asked after releasing herself from her stupor.

Sona nodded at that and explained, "Yes, but only once and this one's the strangest…" She adjusted her glasses and continued, "He reappeared once again when he turned eighteen, I was expecting to see a report card or something the like, but the official document I found was of his induction to the S.A.S."

Sona wasn't really surprised to see that no one in the room seemed to know what that acronym meant, since she as well was confused when she found it, "S.A.S? What is that?" A monotonous almost robot-like voice then asked, belonging to the petite girl by the Student Council president's side.

Sona breathed in and then explained, "It is an acronym for 'Special Air Service', the most elite force in the UK's Royal Army, the whole world even."

Once again, the occupants in the room gasped at the information, they have heard of the special units in the armies around the world and they knew they are no joke. That also seemed to explained how he was able to so easily handle the Academy's biggest bully, "W-Well, that is surprising but not unheard of, actually, for what I know, all important families around the human world are obligated to send its members to do military service." Rias then commented after some moments of pondering.

Sona relented but added, "Yes, that is true, but you said it yourself Rias, military service, not elite training…" Seeing that they were still confused, the bespectacled devil explained further, "For what I gathered, S.A.S has no more than four hundred to six hundred members, on the surface, they are trained to deal with terrorism, covert reconnaissance, direct action, hostage rescue and homeland security, but it is also known that they are the ones in charge of the UK's black ops, such as assassinations, initiating a coup to destabilize a country or even the eradication of small communities that pose an obstacle for Britain's interests."

That seemed to have been the last nail in the coffin, the whole room was in complete shock at that, they all apparently thought that the silverette was nothing more than a regular heir of a powerful family, but as it turns out, he might actually be a trained elite assassin.

Rias then sighed before she inquired, "Is there anything else on him?"

"No, that was the last thing that I could find, not even my family has information on his missions or anything he has done for the past twelve years since he officially disappeared…" Sona answered before she stood up and walked to stand before Rias' desk and added, "Are you really sure about him, Rias? I'm not so sure is a good idea to induct him into your peerage, he doesn't seems like someone who will react kindly at such a thing, and remember that he does have enough power to retaliate."

Rias looked at her desk for some moments, she knew well that it was a big risk, and more now after hearing that he could probably be a trained elite assassin. But still, she was desperate and her heart was screaming at her that he was the only chance she had to escape her cursed fate, "I have nothing else Sona, I don't know why, but my heart would not stop telling me that he's my only chance." Rias then said with a sad smile after bringing her gaze back at the slim blackette.

Sona just sighed tiredly, but relented when she said, "If it's of any consolation, when I stood before him this morning, I actually shivered, there's something about him, not vile per say, but dangerous, I felt as if I was standing in the presence of an apex predator."

Rias did widened her eyes at that, she could also feel something mysterious yet powerful coming off from the silverette when she saw him this morning, but to hear her friend, who is quite the confident girl, to say that she actually felt threatened by a mere human, made her think that she was right about him, "Thank you for the info Sona, I owe you one." Rias spoke with an honest and grateful smile.

Sona smiled back at her friend and turned away to head to the door, she was about to leave but said from her shoulder, "You're my friend Rias and I too want to see you free and able to make your own decisions, if you truly think that he is your answer, then I will go along with your plan, as crazy and foolish as it is."

The Student Council president and her peerage then left after that, leaving a pondering Occult Research Club still somewhat confused, "Koneko, can you go and observe him for me?" Rias requested to the white-haired small girl.

The petite girl in question nodded in yes and left the room in search for her target. Rias just sat there, looking at the folder on her desk containing some of the information of the silver-haired Hamilton along with a picture of him, which she was looking at while gently tracing her fingers over it, mumbling, "Are you perhaps my answer, Derek Hamilton?…"


"Fucking groceries… you would have expected that my grandfather had left food in my goddamn fridge for at least the rest of the week…" Derek muttered with irritation while carrying three bags filled with groceries, he had to go and shop some since his grandfather had apparently forgot, or not cared at all, for filling his food supplies, hence his irritation.

He was currently walking through the streets of Luxembourg City since he decided to walk instead of drive, it wasn't really that far from his home so there was no real necessity for vehicles, plus, walking in the middle of the dusk always relaxes him, "Such a shame the store didn't have good steaks." He muttered, disappointed at the lack of quality meat.

"Umm… E-Excuse me!…" A feminine voice then drew his attention, making him turn to look at the owner of said melodic tone. The girl in question was a beautiful young woman with black midnight long hair that reaches her lower back, she has haunting violet-coloured eyes and was wearing a pink buttoned blouse that showed a good amount of her seductive cleavage, a black skirt that reaches just above her knees and was carrying a small portfolio-backpack on her hands, waving it around nervously.

"She stinks of crow." The divine voice of the true Red Dragon Emperor said inside the silverette's mind, already knowing her to be a fallen angel.

"Yeah, explains the seductiveness as well." Derek agreed with his partner, knowing that Fallen Angels were masters of seduction, even more so than Devils, "Yeah, what is it?" He then answered the blushing and nervous girl's question.

The blackette female was wiggling her body around nervously while looking at the ground, she breathed in heavily and then said, "U-Umm… I'm so-sorry to bother you b-but… are you p-perhaps… D-Derek Hamilton?"

Derek just raised an eyebrow as he replied, "Yeah that's me, why?"

The girl gulped and said, "Great!… u-umm… m-my name is S-Sabine and I… umm…" The girl then closed her eyes and in a sudden scream, she claimed, "I want to be your girlfriend!"

Derek just stood there frozen, completely baffled at the sudden claim, "This girl is weird." His confused dragon partner said, sharing his host's confusion.

Derek then replied while scrunching his handsome face, "What!? Nah lass, I'm alright thanks, so I'll pass." He just turned away and continued his walk back home.

Sabine stood there frozen, completely shocked at the sudden refusal, 'W-Why you…' She thought enraged while she made her way towards him and after stepping in front of him, she questioned angrily but still a little nervous and hurt, "W-Why not!? A-am I not g-good enough for you!?" Her eyes started to tear up, trying to guilt-trip the boy.

Derek just sighed tiredly before he explained, "No, you are incredibly beautiful and hot…" The girl blushed harshly while he continued, "But you can't just walk towards someone and ask him to be your boyfriend, that's not how it works sweetie, it might work with perverted and desperate wankers, but with real men, that just screams of crazy."

Sabine looked completely flabbergasted at his words, Derek could even see that his refusal stroke her own self confidence because for a moment there she threatened to break her fake character. But she managed to control her hurt pride and quickly returned to her cute charade when she said with tears in her eyes, "B-But… I… I c-can be a good g-girlfriend to you!… just g-give me a chance, p-pleeeeease!" She was even surprised with herself at how low was she going just to hear him say yes, 'Why am I acting like this!? I… I s-should just kill him… b-but… I r-really want him to say yes…' She thought with frustration creeping over her.

That was really it for Derek since he was hungry and sleepy, his patience was very thin, so said irked, "Look girl, I already told you, I'm not interested, so fuck off already mate…" He then walked past the stupefied young girl and muttered, "SportsCenter is about to begin and I'm not missing it for some crazy lass."

With those rude words, he continued his trek towards his home while whispering a strange tune that said something on the lines of '… This is… SportsCenter… tarara tarara', leaving a fuming blackette behind who could not respond for the next five minutes, "Y-You… you… h-handsome… piece of shit!" She then screamed at the winds before she took off running towards the opposite direction, already thinking on how she was going to kill that stupid, arrogant, asshole and handsome man the next time they meet.

Unbeknownst to them, or at least that's what Koneko thought, a petite white-haired girl was hidden on the trees beside the road where she was listening to the whole thing. She didn't expected him to turn down a fallen angel and so easily at that, "Wow… he's cool…" She muttered before she took off towards her home, feeling really impressed with the young man.


"Excellent game, boys…" A tall middle-aged black-haired man said to a group of panting and sweaty young boys. The man was wearing a grey suit with a small emblem on the left side of the chest-area of the jacket, the emblem was a white triangular shield with a red dragon inside and letters carved in it saying 'Luxembourg Drakes', "Now we're top of the table thanks to this result."

The boys cheered with one of them saying, "Yeah! But it's all thanks to our new Captain! Two goals and one assist! I don't know why you're not a pro, man!" The rest agreed to those words, with some patting the back of said Captain, even the bullies who got their asses handed to them by him were smiling at their team's improvement.

Said silver-haired Captain just snorted before he said, "Come on lads, football it's about team effort, we win together, we lose together."

They all cheered at those words before the coach closed in on Derek and with an arm placed around the Hamilton's shoulders, said, "Wise words my boy, but don't sell yourself short, this has been your first week with us and you've already became our main gun, keep that up and who knows, maybe next year, the pro clubs might come knocking, I know you deserve it."

Derek just smiled slightly at that while thinking a little sadly, 'Would be nice, wouldn't it?…' With that, he said his goodbyes to his teammates and coach and made his way towards his home, he didn't brought his car because he wanted to have his legs ready for the game, so he was calmly walking through Luxembourg's streets while enjoying the breeze.

As he walked by, a black-haired buxom girl handed him a pamphlet that said 'Ask and you shall receive' just below a strange symbol of a rose encased in a circular shape with a strange smaller symbol in the middle, all in crimson colour, 'Rias' family crest I guess, that means I'm getting attacked today huh?…' The silverette thought while looking at the paper before he tossed it away.

It wasn't until he was walking through a lonely park that he thought, 'About time they made their move…' After he thought that, Derek just calmly tilted his head to the side to avoid a fast projectile sent his way behind his back, the projectile clashed on the floor in front of him and Derek could see that it was a spear made of light, weapons most commonly used by Fallen Angels.

"W-What!? H-How did you… d-dodge that!?" A feminine voice then said, obviously stunned to see him dodge her attack so calmly and easily.

Derek turned around lazily and saw a familiar black-haired girl that was wearing a black dress like top with red trimmings, a short black skirt that reached just above her legs, loose enough to allow movement and black leather boots that reached her knees. Derek would have definitely praise the girl for her beautiful look, if she wasn't flying right now with two crow-like wings on her back, looking at him with shock, "Don't I know you, mate?" He said while tilting his head to the side and squinting his eyes as if trying to remember her.

'T-This… fucking… a-asshole!… why d-do I like h-him so much!?…' The fallen angel thought while gritting her teeth harshly, she had no idea why the easy-going and cocky attitude of the silverette was attracting her so much, she would definitely jump at the chance of having fun with him if he wasn't so dangerous for her master's plan, "I'll make you remember me, you prick!" She screamed while conjuring another light spear on her hand and soon after, glided straight at him with the intention of cutting him in half.

Derek just raised an eyebrow and waited for the blackette to come close and once she was within arm's reach, he swiftly sidestepped her trajectory and jumped some steps away of the fuming girl, "Oh yeah! I member now! You're that crazy girl from four days ago…" He scratched his chin in thought before he added, "Sabrina… Sarah… Sally…"

The girl in question was fuming while sending a murderous glance towards the nonchalant young man who didn't seem to give a damn that she was trying to kill him, "Sabin, you fucking asshole!" She screamed before trying to pounce on him again.

Derek just nodded and stood there frozen, not seemingly caring for the flying girl, but just when Sabine was about to pierce him with the spear, he suddenly disappear from view, confusing the girl greatly, "What the…" She was saying before she was kicked on the butt and crashed against the ground rather violently.

She grunted and was about to get up but a foot then suddenly smashed her head on the concrete and kept her from standing up, while the silverette's voice said from above her, "Now, now Sabine, I know I rejected you and I know I'm an asshole, but I hardly believe that warrants my dead, don't you think?…" Sabine just gritted her teeth and tried to get up but was amazed and frightened to see that she couldn't move an inch, the silverette was just too damn strong, "You're far too beautiful to behave like a crazy bitch with rejection issues." He then said with an amused tone.

Sabine just gritted her teeth harsher but said with a little bit of fear slipping into her voice, "J-Just… w-what the hell… a-are you!?"

The silverette just chuckled darkly and Sabine could feel that he was taking on a kneeling position, replacing his foot with his hand which was applying equal force, "I'm someone you shouldn't have pissed off, I never cared for whatever Kokabiel wanted to do here, but now you just made it personal…" Sabine widened her eyes at his words, she never expected him to know so much about them. She was about to say something but the young handsome man added, "Now, what to do with you?"

"Kill her." The Red Dragon Emperor suggested with ease, not really caring for anyone's life other than his host.

"You want to kill everyone, D… but no, I don't see the point of killing her… she's just a puppet… probably trying to impress her superiors…" Derek responded while looking at the trembling girl who was still struggling with his iron grip.

"Then use them, place her in an illusion." The red beast suggested something else.

Derek raised an eyebrow at that, he hasn't used his eyes for some time now but it did seemed like a good opportunity to see how long can his effect last, so grabbing the girl harshly by the hair, he brought her up and stood up while placing her in a kneeling position to say, "You're going to be my test subject, I'm sorry, it's gonna hurt, but you'll survive, I promise you that."

Sabine just looked at him in complete fear, right now she rather die than to be a test subject for whatever the silverette had in plan, but as hard as she tried to get out of his grip, she just couldn't, he was just too strong, "P-Please…" She just pleaded weakly and she could see the genuine remorse in the silverette's beautiful blue eyes before they turned into something she had thought was extinct, eyes that she read had brought so much fear to all those who faced them, eyes that caused every mythology in existence to shiver in fright, eyes that could only belong to a…

Derek closed his eyes after the girl had lost consciousness, shaking his head a little to get rid of the pain of using his eyes after such a long time. After he finally relaxed himself, he carried the girl bridal style and headed towards the forest in the park, he found a nice spot and placed the girl below a tree, letting her body rest against its trunk. He then channelled some of his energy in her and her crow wings retracted back and while caressing her cheek, he whispered, "I'm really sorry about this, but as a compensation, I'm gonna make sure you survive whatever's ahead, you can count on that."

Derek then stood up and looked at the sleeping girl before he suddenly disappeared from sight, as if he was nothing but a ghost in the park. Said park was then left in complete silence, already being late and no passers-by on sight, only the unconscious black-haired girl resting on the tree remained.

That is until a red flash appeared on the road where the fight had started and after it cleared, a figure appeared that was revealed to be none other than the Hamilton youngster, who had apparently forgot his bag with his sport stuff, "Hehe… almost forgot my uniform here… I ain't paying no goddamn spare, mate." He then once again disappeared in a red flash, allowing silence to fall onto the park.


"Umm… P-President… did it work?" A wary voice said inside the ORC room, the gentle voice belonged to a blond handsome man with an almost feminine look. He, like the rest of the occupants of the room, were a little worried for the distressed gaze on their club president and master's gorgeous face.

"I-I… think… it d-didn't…" Rias replied with an almost hollow voice. She could not believe that the silverette didn't summoned her, she knew that he was going to get attacked today and she knew that the attack had already took place because of her familiar not being able to enter the park, her plan was to let him die and then revive him as her pawn, a cruel plan indeed, but she was desperate.

"R-Rias… are y-you alright?" Akeno then asked warily while placing her hand on the red-headed female's shoulder, she was as surprised as her master to see that their plan had failed and just like Rias, she was scared of what they might have just done.

Rias clasped her hands over her mouth and with a frightened gaze, she said, "O-Oh Satan… I… I j-just let o-one of the most powerful h-heirs in the world… die…" She then started to hyperventilate while whispering 'I'm sorry' over and over again.

Akeno immediately tended to her master by rubbing the Gremory's back in a soothing manner. The blond boy was just looking at the ground with a sorrowful look and the white-haired petite girl seemed as emotionless as ever, although, if one were to look at her eyes in that moment, the regret was clear as day.

It was after some seconds that one of the other occupants of the room spoke to try and calm down her distressed red-headed friend when she said, "Rias, there's no point in losing it right now, there was no way you could have known that he wouldn't summon you."

Rias snapped back at the black-haired heiress and shouted with distress, "I-It doesn't matter, Sona!… I… I l-let him die… a-all for my own selfishness…"

Sona just sighed tiredly but she did had a sympathetic look in her eyes, she could see that the silverette's death was waging on her crimson-haired friend heavily, and she couldn't really blame her, this plan was very risky for this very same reason, "I'll inform the school of his death, they will let his family know, let's just hope that retaliation won't come." She said before she nodded at her vice president and left the room.

The ORC members were left there in shock, not really knowing what to do after this, with Rias feeling like she had just made the worst decision of her life.


"What's with the fucking looks?…" An annoyed silver-haired Hamilton muttered as he was making his way through the Academy, he, as usual, was a bit late to class but as usual as well, he didn't care. He was a little confused as well because last night he received a call from his grandfather asking him if he was dead, a question which he answered with the obvious I'm fucking talking to you right now, what do you think? Apparently, the Hamilton patriarch received a call from the Academy telling him that he was believed to be dead, Derek just told him of his fight with the fallen angel and moved on with his sleep.

Come on in was heard coming off from the room in front of him, he opened the door to walk inside his classroom and was immediately greeted with surprised looks and gasps as if they were seeing a ghost. Derek just sighed tiredly and while massaging his temples, he asked, "What's with the fucking looks? Again."

It was the beautiful blonde teacher that answered his question while looking at him as if her hopes had returned all of sudden, "M-Mr Hamilton!… we… w-we all thought you… w-were dead…"

Derek just raised an eyebrow at that before a pink-haired girl further explained with watered eyes, "P-President Sonia… s-she said that you h-had died in a car a-accident just last night… but you're alive!" At that scream, his female classmates started praying and crying as if their lost love had returned, making him sigh tiredly, again.

Derek was about to say something but the door behind him suddenly sprung open and soon after, a black-haired beauty ran inside while looking around the classroom desperately. She then set her eyes on the confused Hamilton and after grabbing his wrist, said to the teacher, "Mrs Deulofeu, I-I'm sorry but I must take Mr Hamilton to the Student Council in order to clear everything out." With that, she took Derek out of the room in haste.

"B-But… I…" The blonde teacher just whispered sadly, alongside her female students, at seeing the silverette being taken away so abruptly.


"Oi!… slow down, dammit! Where the fuck are you taking me, woman!?" Derek said while being dragged around the school by the frantic half fallen angel half devil girl. He knew who the girl was, the Occult Research Club's vice president, and he had a slight inkling as to what was going on, but he still wanted to play the fool for a while.

Akeno turned to look at him and with a seductive smile that she sent his way, replied, "Don't worry handsome, we're almost there!"

The pair continued to run for some moments until they finally reached one of the other buildings in the campus. Akeno then slowed down and while still holding his wrist, she led him towards a door that had a plaque on it with the words 'Student Council Committee' written in it, they walked inside and finally Akeno released him before she went to stand beside the crimson-haired girl Derek knew was the Gremory heiress, who for some reason seemed elated and relieved to see him.

Derek just crossed his arms in front of his chest and started to look at the people present in the room, he knew them all. Beside Rias Gremory, stood Akeno Himejima, the girl that dragged him here, a girl of Japanese descent and the second most popular girl on the Academy, just behind Rias. Beside her, a blond handsome almost feminine male was looking at him with a gentle smile, the boy's name was Michael Weber. And next to the male, a petite white-haired girl of Asian descent, she was quite cute and looked like she belonged to Secondary School, not Upper School, her name is Koneko Tōjō he believes.

On the desk at the far side of his position, the Student Council president, Sonia Scholz, although Derek knew that it was not her real name, was leaning on her desk looking at him with surprise. The vice president of her council, Tsubaki, was standing by her side with equal surprise, and then just beside them, six more people stood, looking at him with the same expression. The first person was a white-haired tall girl with green eyes and hour-glass figure, Momo Hanaki. Beside her, a brunette slim girl with her hair tied in two long ponytails and brown eyes, her name is Reya Kusaka. Next to Reya, a slim girl with reddish brown hair that reach her shoulders was looking at him intently with those brown eyes of hers, if Derek remembers well, her name is Tomoe Meguri. Standing beside Tomoe, a beautiful tomboyish blue-haired girl with a fit body was looking at him with her beautiful deep blue eyes and a small blush on her cheeks, Derek knew her to be Tsubasa Yura, the hottest girl in the SC in his eyes. Right after Tsubasa, Genshirō Saji, the lone male member of the SC, a blond boy who had the aura of an arrogant fool, he had green eyes and had his arm tightly hugged by the last member of the SC, Ruruko Nimura, a short girl with brown hair tied in long twin ponytails and green eyes, all of them of Asian descent.

How does Derek knows so much about them, you ask? Simple, he is a Hamilton, and the Hamiltons are the devils of the human world, he was taught by his grandfather and father that information was the key to everything, from gathering allies, to fending off enemies, it all comes down to who knows more.

After glancing over the whole room, Rias was about to speak but Derek cut her off when he raised his left palm and said annoyed, "Alright now, care to explain, oh dear Student Council, why would you claim that I died? My grandfather was so pissed off that he was considering sending the UK to war against Luxembourg…" He saw that both Rias and Sonia flinched at that, but he continued his rambling, "And now, the whole fucking Academy is looking at me even more than regular, if regular pisses me the fuck off, imagine now how pissed off I am."

The room went quiet for a while, Derek could see that both Rias and Sonia were struggling to come up with an explanation. That is until Sonia gathered her courage and stepped forward, claiming, "Well… I-I'm sorry for all t-the trouble… is j-just that we believed that you had… died… after… umm…" She suddenly couldn't find the words to continue.

Derek just leaned against a chair by his side and finished for the black-haired girl when he said, "Being attacked by a Fallen Angel?"

The occupants of the room widened their eyes after hearing that. While they knew that his family was an ally of the Agares, they didn't expected him to know about such things. Derek saw that and with an annoyed groan, said, "Listen fellas, let's stop playing the I'm about to reveal something shocking to you but I don't know how you'll react game and head straight to the point. I know who you all are, you are Sona Sitri, heiress of the Sitri clan, a pillar of the Devils' society…" He said while pointing at the surprised blackette. He then turned to look at the crimson-haired buxom and continued, "You are Rias Gremory, heiress of the Gremory clan, blah blah blah, the people here are part of your peerages, so with that out of the way, the fuck you want?"

The whole room was frozen silent, they were astonished at how much the silverette knew about them, it wasn't funny, it was scary, very scary. It was Sona the one that spoke first when she inquired, "H-How do you know so m-much?" She cursed herself for stuttering, but the silverette knew so much about them, yet they knew so little of him.

Derek just sighed tiredly and massaged his forehead before he replied, "Information is power darling, you'll do well to remember that…" He then walked a little closer and added casually, "And stop acting as if you don't know why, my family is a close ally with the Agares clan and you know it, fuck, I have a contract with Seekvaria for fucks sakes."

Again, they were all stunned, they knew of his family's closeness with the Agares clan, but they knew nothing of him having a contract with the heiress of the Agares, it did served to deter Rias a little from her goal since she could see that the silverette did not cared for being a devil at all, otherwise he would've already be part of Seekvaria's peerage. But not really having anything else and already pushed into the corner, she stepped up and said, "T-Then Derek, l-let me get to the point since I c-can see you're not i-in your best mood…" She ignored the about fucking time that the silverette rudely muttered and continued before her will deterred completely, "I w-will like to offer you a spot in my peerage, I know there a-are many misconceptions of our kind but I promise you that being a d…" She couldn't continue because the silverette cut her off when he said.

"Nah, thanks beautiful, I appreciate the thought, really do, but I'm not interested." Derek shrugged it off without an ounce of doubt.

Rias was shocked for some seconds but after a while managed to whisper a question, "W-Why not?"

Derek just breathed in heavily and after leaning on the chair next to him, he explained, "Let's see, you lads knew of me since the very first moment I placed feet into this city, the white-haired girl over there…" He pointed a Koneko who strangely blushed and continued, "Has been following me around for the past week, so she saw my encounter with the Fallen girl. You sent one of your subordinates or whatever the fuck the black-haired girl delivering pamphlets is, you conveniently sent her to give me means to summon you, that tells me that you knew that I was going to be attacked that day, that in consecution tells me that you were planning to let me die so I would summon you, you would come in, revive me and force me into your peerage without my consent…" He then straightened himself up and finished, "So why, oh why my gorgeous Princess, would I want to join someone who clearly has her personal goals before my own well-being?"

No one dared to utter a word, not even Rias nor Sona, they were all completely stupefied at hearing this guy completely laying out Rias' plan in a matter of seconds. They all now could see that he knew about it all from the very beginning, he just didn't cared and allowed them to do it, this told them of a young man capable to have a verbal fight against any of the Lords of hell, maybe even Lucifer himself, and win.

"Well?…" Derek then said after a while of silence, he was starting to get really impatient.

It was Rias who broke out from her stupor first and surprising them all, she closed in on him slowly while shedding tears, Derek noted that she was genuinely crying, she stood in front of him and then bowed, earning gasps of surprise from the rest of the occupants in the room, "I-I'm so… I'm s-so sorry D-Derek… I a-acted so s-selfishly that I c-completely forgot a-about your w-well-being… p-please… f-forgive me…" She said with complete honesty, clearly filled with regret.

Derek did cooled his anger down after the apology, simply because he could see that Rias truly felt guilty about the whole ordeal, he could also detect that she seemed desperate about something and he knew that everyone, even him, made reckless and stupid decisions when under desperation. So sighing, he gently lifted Rias' beautiful face by the chin and said after she was looking straight at his blue eyes, "It doesn't really matter Rias, I enjoy fighting, a lot, especially after a good game on the football pitch, it helps to stretch sore muscles…" He walked back a little and continued, "So just forget about it, okay? Now, if there's nothing else, amma get the fuck out of here now."

He was about to walk to the door but stopped when Rias whispered with such desperation that for a second there it almost made him reconsider, "P-Please… I… I n-need you…"

Derek just turned to look at her and said harshly, "But I don't need you…" He saw that the girl flinched and was really hurt by his words, so calming himself down a little, he added more softly, "Listen Rias, I have nothing against you or your kind, but there are three things that I have against your offer. First, I have no fucking clue what it means to be a devil and no desire to know. Second, it pisses me off that you tried to play me like a fool when you could've just come to me and say it out right, without any freaking shenanigans…" Rias just widened her eyes at that, apparently surprised that it could have been that simple, "And third and most importantly, I'm nobody's servant, I will rather die before being somebody's lapdog, that's equal to being caged and I fucking hate cages."

Rias couldn't even speak, like the rest of the occupants of the room who were so stunned at his tranquil yet threatening attitude, all but the blond boy of the SC who said angrily, "Oi! Who the fuck do you think you are!? She's offering you a new great life and you act like an asshole and make her cry!?…" He then released his arm from the small girl and screamed while pouncing on the silverette, "I'll show you, you dick!"

"Saji stop!" Sona screamed, trying to stop her reckless pawn from hurting the heir, but she was already too late.

Saji grinned victorious when he saw the Hamilton frozen there without moving an inch, but he then lost his grin and replaced it with a shocked look when he found himself with his head pressed painfully against the floor, both of his arms were behind his back and were being held in the strongest grip he has ever been placed into.

"Easy there Muffin, I said that I had nothing against you lads, but I never said that I wouldn't kick your butts if I had to." Derek calmly said while keeping his fierce grip on the grunting boy.

The rest of the room was surprised, shocked actually, to see that Saji, someone who was not weak at all, was so easily handled by a human, the Hamilton wasn't even struggling, he moved faster than even Michael, the fastest of the devils in the room, could see.

Sona regained her composure first though and said, "I a-apologize Mr Hamilton… S-Saji… tends t-to allow his a-arrogance to get the better o-of him… p-please… re-release him."

Derek looked at Sona for some moments and then looked back at the boy in his grip before he said, "Don't sweat it, now, night night buddy." He then punched Saji on the back of his neck and his body suddenly fell limp, sinking into unconsciousness.

Derek then just carried the boy and placed him on a chair before he headed towards the door and after opening it, said some parting words, "Well, it has certainly been… entertaining… but I gotta go, you know, classes to attend to and football to practice later, so I'm out, cheers."

With that, the silver-haired Hamilton left the room, leaving a completely stunned group of devils behind, standing shocked at the whole thing that just happened, with the loud snoring of Saji as the only sound in the background.


"Man, Jeremy needs to improve his pace, he's such a poor winger…" Derek muttered while making his way home, once again, walking instead of driving. He had just finished his football practice some minutes ago and now he wanted nothing more than just rest on his comfy bed while watching sports news, really tired for the whole day.

"Ow!…" A sudden yelp then broke the young Hamilton out of his pondering. He turned to his side to see a butt flying out in the open, obviously belonging to a girl who had just face-planted against the pavement, "W-Why am I always s-such a klutz!?" The girl then whined in Italian.

Derek though, could sense something powerful inside her, a familiar pulse telling him of a fellow Sacred Gear user, making him groan internally and cursing his luck of always being put in such situations, 'Give me a fucking break…' He thought frustrated.

"Hehe… the luck of a dragon…" A clearly amused Ddraig said inside his mind, citing the fact that dragons are known to attract both good things and bad things.

"Fuck off…" Derek just said back annoyed.

For a second there, he considered just continue his walk home and forget about the girl, but he could not stop his body for coming close and help the girl out, muttering along the way, "Here we fucking go."
