In the student council room of Kuoh Academy, Rias, Shinjiro, and Sona sat together, with Sona seated in her personal chair.
"You want to do a joint operation between our peerages, ourselves, and you?" Sona asked, adjusting her glasses.
"Yes. Although I could easily deal with everyone there, I want to see the progress of the two heiresses of the devils. I am going to train Rias after all, and I want to see how far behind you are," Shinjiro replied confidently.
"Hey, I'm plenty strong," Rias exclaimed, her eyes narrowing.
"You're not fooling anyone. The only thing that could hurt me is your Power of Destruction, but even then, if you can't use it correctly, you'll never be able to even disintegrate the hair on my head."
"We'll see. Hmph," Rias pouted, crossing her arms.
"Anyway, this will give me a chance to introduce myself to your peerages and show off a little because I will deal with the fallen. This is a Grigori cleanup, after all."
"Fine. At nightfall, the joint operation between our peerages and Shinjiro will begin," Sona agreed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Tall' was the only thought going through the heads of most of the members of Rias's and Sona's peerages.
Shinjiro was standing outside the gate of Kuoh Academy, relaxing against the brick wall. He was dressed in cargo pants, sandals, and a tight black shirt with a toothpick in his mouth. Seeing that everyone was here, he spat out his toothpick, which flew into a nearby trash can.
"Finally, I was getting bored. I was about to go alone," Shinjiro said as he walked over. His towering figure seemed to grow in size in the eyes of everyone. Since his bloodline awakening, he now stood at 7 feet tall, his muscles filling out his frame without making him look overly massive unlike a certain tall Hanma.
Staring down at everyone with his piercing red eyes, he scrutinized each member, and each one broke eye contact immediately.
"Stop scaring our peerages, Shinjiro," Rias said, stepping forward.
"It's not my fault they can't handle a simple stare," Shinjiro replied with a shrug.
"It's not simple when it's you," Sona retorted.
"Alright, quick introductions. I'm Shinjiro Hanma, a freelancer mainly involved with the Grigori. I offer many services but specialize in anything requiring force," Shinjiro said.
Rias nodded to her peerage to introduce themselves.
"I'm Koneko Toujou, Rook of Rias Gremory," Koneko said curtly. She had a petite frame, white hair that reached just below her shoulders, wearing the Kuoh Academy uniform and a stoic expression.
"I'm Yuuto Kiba, Knight of Rias Gremory," Kiba said with a bow. He was of average height with short blond hair, wearing the Kuoh Academy uniform with a sword by his side.
Sona then nodded to her peerage.
"I'm Momo Hanakai, Bishop of Sona Sitri," Momo said. She had long, straight pink hair and striking yellow eyes, her calm demeanor complementing her delicate features.
"I'm Reya Kusaka, Bishop of Sona Sitri," Reya introduced herself. She had short, light brown hair and gentle green eyes, her appearance giving off a friendly and approachable vibe.
"I'm Tomoe Meguri, Knight of Sona Sitri," Tomoe said with a confident smile. She had long, dark brown hair often tied in a ponytail and sharp blue eyes, her athletic build hinting at her combat proficiency.
"I'm Tsubasa Yura, Rook of Sona Sitri," Tsubasa stated firmly. She had short, spiky black hair and intense red eyes, with a muscular frame.
"Alright, introductions over. Let's move," Shinjiro said.
Shinjiro, along with Rias's and Sona's peerages, arrived at the abandoned church.
"Alright, Sona, set up a perimeter. Make sure none leave alive or dead, up to you guys. Rias, I want your peerage at the front. I'm going to be training you guys, so I need to see your strengths and weaknesses. If I get disappointed even a little, you won't even be able to crawl from my training."
Everyone in Rias's peerage, including Rias herself, felt shivers just hearing that.
Quickly, Sona's peerage dispersed, with Tsubaki at the back and Sona at the front of the abandoned church, creating a barrier. Momo and Tsubasa took the left side, while Reya and Tomoe took the right.
Rias's peerage lined up at the door of the abandoned church before Shinjiro arrived at the front and raised his right leg.
"Sorry, there isn't a bell. I hope a knock will do."
With a heavy kick, the door, along with the surrounding structure, collapsed, leaving a gap in the front of the abandoned church. The 20 exorcists gathered near the front turned around, startled.
With a grin, Shinjiro yelled, "Let the game begin."
Rias's peerage moved in. Koneko started at the front, rushing towards the exorcists, with Kiba not far behind, maintaining a good distance. Akeno and Rias stayed within range, channeling their magic for long-range attacks.
Koneko punched the nearest exorcist in the stomach, sending him flying into the wall before collapsing. Breaking out of their stupor, the exorcists gathered their weapons and retaliated.
Two exorcists with swords rushed towards Kiba, swinging their blades. Kiba quickly parried one before sidestepping and slashing at both their legs, before knocking them out. Akeno generated lightning in her hand, blasting strikes in junction, taking out three exorcists in one go. Rias created balls of Power of Destruction, sending them towards the exorcists at the rear, fatally wounding six.
Koneko continued, taking out two more with her physical prowess as a Rook. Kiba eliminated most of the remaining exorcists with his quick sword skills.
After the rest of the exorcists were taken care of by Sona's peerage, the actual combatants emerged: two female fallen angels and one male.
Kalawarner, a voluptuous fallen angel with long blue hair and dark blue eyes, stepped forward.
Mittelt, a petite fallen angel with short blond hair and a mischievous expression, followed.
Dohnaseek, a tall fallen angel with short blond hair and a stern face, brought up the rear.
"Shit, it's the Gremory Peerage," Mittelt exclaimed.
"It doesn't matter. We can't run. I can feel a barrier outside. There must be more outside. It's a do-or-die situation," Kalawarner said.
"It's all the same for me," Dohnaseek replied.
"Already bored me with all that talking. I'll take care of it. I've seen enough of this little play. Now let me show you how you really take care of ants like these."
"What's this human—" Dohnaseek started, but he couldn't finish his sentence before Shinjiro was in front of him, forcing him to look up at the behemoth before him, grinning and showing his long canines.
One punch was enough to send Dohnaseek through a pillar and then through the wall of the abandoned church, skidding down through the dirt with his face caved in.
"Next."
"I'm a woman. Surely, you'll be nice, right?" Mittelt nervously exclaimed.
"Equal rights, equal fights," Shinjiro replied before hitting her in the side with a powerful kick, breaking her ribs and sending her rolling towards a wall, stopping with a thud.
"Light enough, now."
"Fuck this shit, I'm out of here," Kalawarner exclaimed, sprouting her dark wings and flying towards the nearest window.
"Man, why did you have to run? You're making me do unnecessary things."
Shinjiro grabbed two swords nearby and flung them towards Kalawarner, impaling both her wings onto a wall. He rushed towards her before knocking her out and removing the swords, chucking them to the side.
He started gathering all the fallen and throwing them over his shoulder like sacks of potatoes.
"Alright, I'll leave the cleanup to you guys. I'm kind of, no, I am disappointed in your strength. Although I haven't seen all of it, it's not enough. Prepare for tomorrow's training. I'll stop by later in the day. Anyway, peace," Shinjiro said before taking out a weird-looking object that glowed purple, creating a magic circle under his feet bearing the Grigori symbol, and then disappeared.
Rias pouted slightly, "I'm not weak, right, Akeno?"
Akeno smiled gently and replied, "Of course not, Rias. We just need more training. We'll get stronger together."
"Doesn't that mean we are weak?"
"Hey, Akeno, say something."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Azazel's office, a purple magic circle appeared before Shinjiro stepped out with the fallen angels on his shoulder. Tossing them aside, he looked around.
"Hey old man, where are you?"
Shinjiro's hair stood up as he sensed something coming from behind. Reacting instantly, he rotated his body, guarding his torso with both arms. The impact of whatever it was broke both his arms, sending him skidding back, although he stopped almost instantly. Gritting his teeth, not in pain but in anger at losing in a contest of strength.
