As Akito kept following the relatively slow person, he started reminiscing about that person's hair. Then, seeing that short crimson hair of hers flap around and to the sides, he yelled, "Norio-san? Is it you?" Shocked and embarrassed, Rias began running faster, then she suddenly screamed as she reached the massive tree by the exit of the park, "no, stop following me." Then, while blushing, she glanced back at Akito and thought to herself, "if only I could stop and talk to you."
Then out of thin air, before stepping off the park's sidewalk, Akito appeared in front of her, dark energy releasing from his body. He appeared as if he was an evil entity. Seeing him in such a state caused her to trip over herself and fall onto her rear-end. However, she appeared to be frightened and neither in a state of shock from all she had witnessed. Akito, curious, picked her up to his shoulder and carried her back to the tree in an instant. As he was placing her down, she appeared to be blushing, which caused him to fluster. "What's wrong?" he shouted while deactivating his energy release. Shaking off her embarrassment, Rias responded, "you're glowing in a dark and blue light, no human can do that, and yet you ask me what's wrong?" Akito feeling a little dumb, could not find an answer. Instead, he rambled on in his head. "Damn, she thinks I'm a monster now," crying in embarrassment, he said, "what glowy stuff, are you okay?" He tried brushing off the situation and playing it as if she imagined it.
Nevertheless, Rias was already aware of his powers, which caused her to expose her secret. "You know, Rin-Kun, I have been watching you my entire life. So you don't have to lie to me." She said as she sincerely smiled. Suddenly a figure stood in front of the two and flicked Akito to the ground with one finger.
Making a connection with the ground, Akito looked up to the figure only to have an immense pressure tilt his head down. "Bow down, heed to your God." So said the figure while ascending in the air with his massive six pairs of black-feathered and one pair of featherless wings.
He then loosened the pressure on Akito, allowing him to look up. Scared, Akito couldn't make sense of the situation, "what is this feeling? Who is he?" He questioned himself as he clenched his chest tightly, "Is that me?" He nervously spoke as he ran out of breath and commenced to struggle to look at the figure, his vision became blurry, and the only thing he noticed was the massive amount of power this man had at his disposal.
Without understanding the man's presence, Rias fell to the ground in shock and took shelter behind a tree. "Who is he?" she said to herself calmly. "I need to figure out a way to get his attention away from Rin-Kun." Though she couldn't do much as her legs shook aggressively, she sat there observing the situation.
"Brother, it is quite pleasing to see that he is nearly at extinction. Soon, brother, you will no longer need to suffer." spoke the mysterious being as he descended to the ground once again. Suddenly when making an impact with the ground, the massive seven pairs of wings disappeared into thin air. "What? Why are you in a state of uncertainty?" He smirked. "Nothing's new, brother. It's been a cycle of the same by now." He said as he began laughing uncontrollably. "Anyway, I only came here to warn you that soon, Your Eternal War will come to an end." He laughed as the nine pairs of wings appeared once again, allowing him to take off and fly away at an incredible speed from the city's direction.
Akito went unconscious due to the strong magic used against him. Being too shy about being discovered by Akito and her secret revealed to him, Rias began dragging him next to his side bag. Then, placing his head gently onto the grass, she fled away while screaming inside of her head, "I touched him."
Akito slowly regained his consciousness, opened his eyes, and tears came running down his face. "Huh? Why am I crying?" He said to himself as he sat up and wiped away the tears. "That guy, he knocked me out cold." He said as he checked the time on his cell phone, "It's 7:38 pm? Oh damn, I have missed so many calls from mom. I'm going to die." He said to himself as he grabbed his bag in a hurry.
"I'm home," he announced to his family. Greeted by his mother, he escaped his punishment by making excuses. Not feeling very hungry, he stood up and went to his room after only a few bites. "That guy, he was just so familiar." He said to himself as he laid on his bed. "I somehow felt like I knew him." He uttered as he pulled out his phone. First, though, he dropped it on his head while remembering that he had encountered Rias. "Oh shit, it happened. She was there?" He shouted inside of his head. Hugging his pillow, he began whispering to himself, "I wish that I was hugging her right now." As he slowly fell asleep.
In the morning, Akito left the house with his brother for the first time in a while. On their walk, Akito opened up with the situation regarding him unlocking his powers and that he also risked exposing his powers to Rias. Worried, Satoshi played it cool and said, "well done, tell the two about it and see what they can come up with." Satoshi, still not over the situation with Rikka, spotted her as they reached the school entrance, "I'm parting off, see you later." he said to his brother as he took off in the direction of Rikka.
Finally catching up with the two, Akito began heading to his club room, presenting the current issues. Kazuto, amidst his ideas, ran dry and said, "I don't know what you should do, Akito." While on the other hand, Yui had thought of something different, "why not tell her that you were working out?" Both the boys looked over to each other and simultaneously said, "oh, yeah, I already knew that." Laughing, Akito pulled out an old book and began reading to himself. In the silence, his head began to race for new ideas, new strategies, and new ways to use his magical powers. "What is this move?" he said to himself as his mind began drawing pictures on how to use such moves and magic spells. Getting up, Akito began sensing a substantial magical power heading his way, "Watch out!" he shouted to his seated friends as a figure blew inside of the club room from the window.
Laughing, the figure walked and stepped over Akito and softly spoke, "your the one master wants dead? By his request, I must meet his expectations." As he slowly picked Akito by his throat. "Let us go somewhere less cramped, right? Flame Master." Then suddenly, the figure grew bat-like wings and took a flight out of the hole in the window.
Traveling at incredible speeds, Akito began to struggle, activating his power mid-flight, while 5000 feet up in the air, he shouted, "Gravitational magic, gravitational arrow." Striking the Devil in his shoulder caused him to drop Akito and freefall towards the ground. Away from any city, the two were close by mount Takamisanchi. Akito's mind started racing while free falling until he enchanted "Gravity magic, gravitational manipulation, zero-gravity bubble" as a bubble of no gravity began to form around him, allowing him to levitate at will and move freely in the air as well. He looked down to the ground and mumbled, "amazing. This mountain is beautiful." He admired the view until the mysterious Devil tackled him down. Rushing down to the ground and being held with a firm grip, Akito enchanted "gravitational manipulation, dynamic gravitational push." Then suddenly, the devil has pushed off him, allowing him to freefall head first towards the ground. Making an impact on the environment, Akito dropped the gravity bubble and began powering up, allowing his mana to free flow into every nerve of his body. He remained conscious. Happy about his achievement, he began celebrating, "hell yeah, I did it at full power too." Content with himself, he forgot about the fight, caught off guard, the Devil launched a magical fire attack towards him. "Fire magic, fire darts." he enchanted as darts of fire unleashed towards Akito. With multiple projectiles launched, only four darts managed to strike him, two in his arms and two into his left leg. Enveloped in fire, Akito sustained quite a few damages. His arms and left leg were burning still. That is before he enchanted, "Gravity magic, gravitational push." The fires flew off him and onto the ground. Hurt Akito panted in pain. "Who are you, and what do you want?" Yelled Akito at the levitating Devil before he made contact with the ground.
"Glad you asked," he said as he smiled, maintaining his distance from Akito, he introduced himself. "My name is Bueral, a servant of the Red Flame Master." He smirked and uttered, "I will weaken you, as his wishes are my command." suddenly charging Akito, he used another magical spell, "Fire magic, Fire manipulation, arrows of the blazing star." As two giant arrows formed from thin air, they resembled as if the sun had been contained within them, shining so bright, it almost blinded Akito. "Shit, I need to avoid this one," he spoke out before he enchanted, "Gravity magic, gravitational bubble freeze" while pointing at the arrows with both of his hands. Then, around the two arrows, a bubble of high atmospheric pressure began to build up, sustaining them both in a frozen state—Bueral, unsure what to do, deactivated the spell.
"Curse this gravity magic," spoke out the Devil as another pair of legs began to sprout out from his behind. Then, using his hind legs, he began running away from Akito, enchanting another magical spell. He shouted, "fire magic, fire shield." Then suddenly, he became covered inside of a vast fire bubble. Allowing Akito to fall onto one knee and think, "No gravity means no atmospheric pressure, which means it will put out the fire!" Determined, he stood up once again and concentrated his mana, then he enchanted "Gravity magic, Zero Gravity bubble." When a massive bubble of thin gravity particles began to form around the Fire shield, finally, after a few minutes, the fire shield began wearing off slowly. Then Akito became exhausted from the spell and fell onto his knee once again, "Damn, that's my limit?" he questioned himself as he started to pant even more.
As the two casted spells wore off, it revealed an ugly monster within, an eight-legged creature with a head of a horned human. "KeeKeeKee," the Devil laughed terrifically. "Now, I'm serious, Flame Master," he shouted as he began walking weirdly towards Akito. "I'm a fire user and a special shapeshifting Devil. I'm from the Sagittarius clan. To be more clear, I'm the current leader of the clan." He informed Akito, as he enchanted, "Thy loyal servant, my dark lord commands a portal." Then a big magical ring began appearing next to him. Reaching in, he pulled out the "Lagoon."
The "Lagoon" is a middle-tier Bow, crafted by the founding Leader of the Sagittarius. He assembled the magical power into a solid bow by harnessing Lagoon Nebula's magical energy.
Most of the Sagittarius clans members are archers. However, a small amount of the Sagittarius clan members do not rely on physical weapons. Alternatively, Sagittarius clan members are influential fire users. Thus, they can use various magical attacks in shapes and patterns to represent an archer. Bueral, being a direct bloodline of the past leaders, has mastered the arts of archery and the use of fire magic.
