Grand Zeno Of DXD

Chapter 10 - Saving the Nekomatas

(A/N: This is the 1st time I have written from another's view so I hope you can forgive me if I make mistakes)

Magari's POV

My name is Magari and I am the chieftain of the Nekomata Village that resides in the Underworld. Currently, I am in charge of the Nekomata Squad that resides the in the 10th floor of our Savior's 'Reality Marble' as he calls it. But, I would like to call it Heaven. Now people might be asking how am I able to tell this and how I was alive, I must recount to that fateful day when I met the one that bring salvation to me and my people and his Master who is our Savior and leader of Grand Order, a faction that stays neutral in anyways but intervenes when humanity is at stakes.

Flashback 1 month ago,

The town was in ruins. The houses were burning, my people were suffering, and myself being played like a disposable toy and not done with me yet. Yes, I'm talking about those detestable, damnable devils. Seriously, why can't they just leave us alone? We lived in peace and never disturbed anyone or anything, lest bringing the ire of the devils. When I asked this to my tormenters, what they answered make me puke and that's what I did, puke with blood as they hit me in the abdomen and torture me physically while they make me watch my brethen getting beaten. What they said next sent shivers down my spine and thought I'm a goner.

"Hey, I'm tired doing this shit. Why don't we approach in a better way if you know what I mean?" Devil 1

"Oh yeah, this would compensate. 'lick lips'" Devil 2

They are going to it to me. I felt myself lifeless as I fell into despair knowing that I will never be a free again. More so that because of me, the others are going to suffer. I felt helpless for the second time in my life. The first time was when I heard about Shirone's problem. So goodbye world. May we meet again.

It was at that time that I heard it.

The sound that brings salvation to me and my people.

The sound that ends all miseries and tragedies.

The sound that spelled doom to those sc.u.ms.

The sound of the evening bell tolling.

When I heard that sound for the first time, I felt- nothing. My brethren did not feel anything either on hearing it. The ones that felt it were the devils. They stopped their tormenting and just stand there, shivering and scared of what was coming to them. It was then when I heard it. A deep, echoing and masculine that screams 'DEATH'

(A/N: I tried my best to make Gramps Hassan like how Gramps Hassan is. If there is something wrong, I hope you forgive me.)

3rd POV

"How nostalgic to see those who have strayed from their path." This put a scare to all the devils in the vicinity and look around them for the source of the voice.

"Who are you? Show yourself." Devil Leader

"Heh Heh Heh Heh, even then I should not blame you for what you do. For that is a trait of yours isn't it, beings of the Underworld?" Mysterious Figure (Hassan)

"Show yourself, you coward." Devil Leader (A/N: Telling our Gramps a coward? You idiot. Hand over-)

"That is my line, Author. I hope you won't do this again."Mysterious Man (Gramps) [A/N: Yes Gramps]

"Now, where was I? Oh yes, while I don't blame you for all of this, I do find you guilty for a fact." His voice was getting louder and angrier by the second, making all the devils tremble and started to shoot magic at every direction hopeful that it would hit the mysterious man(Gramps!). Instead, they almost hit the nekoshous on the ground but since our MC has foreseen it, magic barriers were made around them, bouncing the stray magic or dispersing them. At that time, the sound of the evening bell tolls got louder and louder signifying that it has time to reap the soul.

Fogs started to appear out of nowhere, covering the whole army and the nekoshous, the latter sent to a distance for safety measures by Hassan by extension of Hajime. The last words those shitty devils heard were,

"I find you guilty for harming innocents with or without reason. For that, (A/N: Here we go!)

HAND OVER THY HEADS." Hassan

As our Grand Assassin said the WORD, sounds of slaughter were heard in the fog. Some were screaming, some were running like crazy, and some even tried to shoot magic into wherever he is. But ultimately, their end comes. The evening bells tolled continuously as Hassan literally cut their heads off without mercy. He even heard some plea for mercy, saying that he has wife and children to feed, but Hassan will not taken any of this. As the slaughter continues, the cries, the screams, the wild shooting all quiet down little by little until the leader of the Devil army is left.

Since the leader thinks nothing is going to work, he thought that he will bring Hassan down with him, only to know that he can do nothing. He became scared more than ever shivering, trembling, and even soiling himself, he can only stare at the embodiment of death in a pathetic state. The last word he heard in utter despair was,

"Hearken. The knell hath tolled thy name

Feathers of death prophecies--- decapitate"

"A-ZA-RA-EL"

It was then that the leader of the devil army's head had been cut off, rolled over a little while and burned into ash by the blue flames. His body also follows this fate.

Hassan than head over the Nekomatas that have more or less recovered to the state that they can walk. He then made his presence known to them. They were shocked at seeing him and became wary due to how he had massacred those devils without any mercy and doubt. Hassan seeing this eased their doubts.

Hassan: "Thou need not worry. The pest that harm thee as been removed."

It was then that Magari stepped out and talked to him.

"Thank you. For saving me and my people. We are forever indept to you." she said truly thankful for what Hassan has done. "May I know the name of my savior?" she asked. Hassan quickly applied, "You may call me as Assassin. Now follow me and I shall led you to a safe place. This Underworld is not suitable for one such as yourself who is a part of nature." Magari was shocked on hearing her origin from the stranger whom she has never seen before. But that died down and instead was brimming with excitement on hearing that there will be a safe place for them to live. The cost for that, she will think about it later. Hassan had informed his master that the deed was done and not long after, a large portal appeared in front of them. Beyond the portal was what seems to be a paradise for her and her brethren. Hassan moved into the portal, prompting the others to follow him.

As they walked through the portal, Magari and the others were gobsmacked on seeing the new and beautiful scenery of lush green mountains, valleys and much more. They themselves were on a mountain that overlook a magnificent city at the base of the mountain. A man no boy with white hair was standing there a few meters in front of them, waiting for them to come to him. Hassan has walked towards him, walk pass him and stand behind him like a loyal comrade and the boy the leader. Magari fell down to the ground unable to walk farther due to her injuries. The boy or should I say Hajime walked up to her and started to heal her. The villagers all tensed up again on his actions but relaxed when they realized that he was healing their leader. After healing Magari, Hajime cast a wide AOE spell over the rest of the Nekomatas and use a super-duper water-downed version of Heaven's Feel, Blessing of the Sage. It is an AOE healing spell that cures all injuries and diseases that one may have during their faltered state.

After all is healed, he then talked to Magari, "I believe we have much to discuss."
