The Chronicles Of Zero

// 3rd POV //

Kokabiel's attempt to attack Kuoh will send the world of the supernatural into turmoil

Some expected the great war to begin again, marking the end of one of the most important factions in the world, the Biblical faction. Especially since the latter was helped by a member of the former faction maou Shalba Belzebub.

But the result was different from what people may have expected because these two famous figures known to have participated in at least one of the two greatest conflicts of the supernatural have found their end during this attack.

One was killed by Shiba who was known to be one of the top 10 humans who could fight as equals against high ultimate class to Maou/Governor/Seraphin class

But the most shocking is that Kokabiel was defeated by a no-name young man, the only thing known about him in the supernatural is that he is the young master and heir of the Akatsuki family one of the 6 great families of Japan who is also known by the title 'young master' within the Yokai and Shinto faction and that the heir of the Sitri and Lucifuge devil house are betrothed to him.

At this moment in Kuoh Academy, All participants of this battle are sitting around a table in the middle of a ruined school, on one side of the table are Zero and Sona with their members behind them, on the other side are the members of the ORC and the members of the church and the hero village

Shiba has been ordered to go back to the village, while Basara, Yuki and Kurumi are on standby in Kuoh

// Zero POV //

Everyone look at my group with awe and wonder, especially me, who beat a veteran of the Great War, not to mention a lot of secrets I revealed in that time

Suddenly a magic circle appears on the ground, everyone turns their heads to see Luciela in her demonic form Timoria accompanied by a group of people behind her, when I see the faces of these people, I can't help my eyebrow from twitching.

Lu and the people behind her seeing my reaction could help but all smile at me, as if satisfied to see me react like this.

The members of the ORC, the church and the hero village become wary of the newcomer since they release plenty of powers of different kinds.

Zero: Calm down guys, they are with me.

I say with a sigh

Lu: Sorry for being late dear, I and my new members just finished taking care of the rest of the little pests around town.

Zero: Thank you for your hard work.

Ingvild: We haven't started yet, Luciela Onee-sama we are waiting for the leaders to arrive

Lu: I see.

Xenovia: Gremory who are these people? .

Xenovia asks Rias before the latter can answer, Evangeline, answer her

Evangeline: Ask the person themselves kid, I'm Evangeline A.K Magdowell, Lady Luciela's Queen and also the anomaly sitting there teacher

Zero: Shishou, why are calling me like that, I don't remember doing something to deserve this appellation

Evangeline: Who's the idiot that creates a spell capable to obliterate several moons while studying a simple fireball spell?

Zero: Oh... you see that...it's awkward...

Evangeline: That why I call you an anomaly, stupid disciple of mine.

???: I think it's my turn, my name is Nanoha Takamashi, Lu-chan Bishop and childhood friend of this idiot

Nanoha: It seems you want to taste my greeting Starlight Breaker again Zero-chan

Zero: Sorry Nanoha-chan I went ahead of myself, please pardon me

Nanoha: See you can be reasonable when you want

???: I'm Yagami Hayate, Lu-han second Bishop, same as Nanoha I'm a childhood friend of Zero-han, I and my family were in his care for a while.

Zero: You mean I was mostly the Yagami family babysitter.

Hayate: No, no you where a great help for the Yagamido

???: I'm Fate... Testarosa, Luciela-san Knight, and also a childhood friend of...Z-Zero's, nice to meet you

Zero: A blushing and shy Fate-chan with glass, what a great combination, it too cute

Fate: Don't say such an embarrassing thing before everyone, Zero.

???: Yagami Signum, Luciela-dono second Knight, and Mistress Hayate's guardian.

Zero: Long time no see Signum-sensei.

Signum: If it is not Zero, I see you didn't slack on your training, good I can't wait to see how far you've progressed

???: My name is Yagami Reinforce Eins, Master Luciela Rook and also one of the guardians of Mistress Hayate and also of Master Zero

Zero: Rein-chan I told you many times that you don't need to protect me, I can take care of myself.

Reinforce: No, Master Zero is a benefactor of our Yagami family and I'll make all in my power to repay this debt.

Zero: *Sigh*... do what you want.

???: Kawakami Momoyo, Lu-chan second Rook, I'm also Zero's older sister and his sister disciple.

Zero: Lu how in the seven hell did you do to make her joint you?

Lu: I only have to say your name and she accepts immediately.

Zero: I don't believe this crap a second. I know how Momoyo thinks and she only follows her own rule.

Lu: It's up to you to believe me or not.

???: Kurokami Medaka, Lu-chan only Pawn, my goal make the entire world a better place. How did I do Ro-chan, Lu-chan?

Lu and I show her a 10/10 card each

The members of the ORC look at Medaka and were surprised because she almost looks like Rias but with bleu hairs and different behaviour.

Lu: And as you may have deducted I am their King, Luciela Reban Akatsuki, the other half of Zero Akatsuki and one of his legal wives

Zero: My pride first wife

Issei: You don't rub your love life on our faces and did you have to comment after every presentation and how many childhood friends do you have for Satan sake?

Zero: To respond to your question in order, If I want to boast about my wife it's my right little shit. Bear with it or go find one, I have so many childhood friends across the country that I lost count after a while and I had to comment.

Issei: Why are you so mean to me?

Issei: Nee-chan, Zero is mean to me

Himari: *light laughs* Dear stop being means to him...

Issei: Nee-chan

Himari: Only for today at least since he almost died.

Issei: I hate you, both of you.

Zero/Himari : Love you to Issei

Xenovia: I have never seen people like that and the church have his own bunch of strange people. (to Rias and Akeno) Tell me gremory It's me or all the members of Akatsuki are girls.

Rias: No, it's not only you.

Akeno: Indeed, there are too many for my taste.

Basara: I ask myself how he manages to be so calm around all these girls?

Kurumi: Must have been around girls for so long it becomes a habit maybe?

Lu sits on my knee, as usual, the next second my eyes turn blue again with my black pupils in the shape of a cross, my ears become pointed, my uniform change for my Abysser class outfit then I take her in my arms and put my chin on her head

This surprised the members of the Gremory, the church and the hero village, and Lu peerage members.

Yuki: Zero your appearance...

Zero: Hum? Oh, I think it is the first time some of you to seen me like that, this is what I call my human demonic form since I'm a Nephalem

The information takes time to sink inside some head before they are all cry

At that moment a red, blue and white circle appear on the ground and Sirzechs, Grayfia and Aine appear followed by Serafall and finally two blond-haired people in white clothing with a pair of white wings each.

The two groups look at each other

???: Sirzech, Serafall

Sirzech : Michael, Gabriel

After the two leaders greet each other they look at the destruction around them.

Sirzechs: I hope the kids are ok

Michael: Me too

Gremory, Church, Hero Village, Lu Peerage: Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh ?!

Basara: You must be joking right, Zero? Right?

Then they notice the groups of young people sitting at a table being startled by something.

But two people stood out the most. It's two young people with white hair and blue eyes, pointed ears and iris in the shape of a cross, one was white and one was black, these two youngsters give each the power level of a super devil or a god.

Aine: Zero-san?

Earing my name a turn my head toward the source to see Aine accompanied by Sirzechs, Grayfia and two angels

Zero: Yo, Aine, Nii-san, Onee-chan, and Sera-nee

Serafall: Zero, Sona you are fine?

Serafall runs straight at Sona but stops in her tracks when she looks closely at Sona's and Zero's new appearance

It was indeed a shock for the Maou Leviathan to see her sister become a beauty that surpasses her own and her little brother became the definition of handsome, Sirzechs, Grayfia and Aine were also surprised by Zero, Sona and Tsubaki's change.

But what shocked the three ȧduŀts the most was the aura they gave off, it was an aura with the same intensity as Sirzech's and Ajuka's that of a Super Devil from Sona and demonic divine power come from Zero and the girl on his ŀȧp

Serafall: Sona? Is that you?

Sona: It's me, Onee-chan

Serafall was taken by surprise that Sona called her Onee-chan since it was a long time since she was called like that

Sona: Baffled by my change, are you? I can understand that, but we'll talk about it later, since you are all here I think you have questions?

Serafall: You're right. where are Kokabiel and Shalba?

Ingvild: A Gregori agent sent by the Governor-General has already picked Kokabiel up for his punishment, and the old Belzebub was killed by a certain Shiba.

Sirzechs : Shiba was here ? Why you didn't tell us, he's very dangerous

Zero: Chill Nii-san, Shiba can be a handful sometimes but he knows when to not mess around especially when it concerned people connected to someone stronger than him.

The two angels were surprised by me talking casually to the Maou Lucifer

Michael: Is it the Gregorie agent who defeated Kokabiel then, if Shiba was against Shalba?

All the witnesses of this battle turn to me, as to say to the angel of heaven that I defeat the Cadre class Fallen

Zero: What? I beat a Cadre Classe Fallen Angel who used a prototype artificial sacred gear and avoid a new great war, I only do my job.

Sirzech: Oh, of course with Zero here, I understand that Kokabiel was defeated

Michael: You seems to know this child well Sirzechs

Sirzechs: He is my wife brother-in-law, making him my little brother

Serafall: He's also my little brother since he's betrothed to my sister too.

Michael: He's the brother of two Maou?

Gabriel didn't stop to stare at me since she arrive before a chocked expression appear on her face

Gabriel: That energy... Michael, that child, it's him

Michael: Him?

Gabriel: The power spike of pure and dark elements from a few months ago

Michael: Oh, so he is the Nephalem that we fell a few months ago

Everyone excepted my members are looking at me again with more insistence

Sirzech: a Nephalem? Zero? Now I understand...

Grayfia: So this is what you tried to hide from me when I came to investigate at that time. To think that the awakening of that power almost kill you, you were reckless.

Zero: I didn't do it on purpose at that time it was out of my reach

Aine: Still you should have been more careful

Zero: I know, that near-death experience and the aftermath always make me remember to never take my powers for granted

Basara: But how did you become a Nephalem for I as long I know you were human

Zero: Simply put, I was born as a Nephilim, my dad is a human and my mom a goddess. But I never awake completely my god power but only have some passive. Then by some circumstance, I exchanged my human soul to the demon monarch on my knee, who by the way is the highest-ranking a demon can attain in this world and by chance was granted the legacy of Sparda blood, becoming a Nephalem, the most powerful of my kind.

Everyone looks at me with their mouths open

Grayfia: Born with divine powers, raise as a human, inherits demonic blood and soul, blessed with a Sacred Gear of the Longinus type, trained in the art of Senjutsu, crowned king of time and space. A real-time bomb ready to explode at any moment

Zero: Thank you for reminding me of this fact about me, Onee-sama

Grayfia: You're welcome.

At that moment a grey circle appears not far from us and Azazel appears in it. Azazel looks around to see the destruction and our group.

Azazel: I didn't miss anything I hope?

Zero: Azazel...

I pick up Lu and put her on the ground, before getting up from my seat and approaching the former angel while cracking my neck.

Azazel: Yo kid, Valina say you have my prototype, can I have it back I must ȧssess the data inside

Zero: I give you a five-second head start, you should start running

Azazel: Huh? What are you talking about?

Zero: You remember the promise I made to you during your last visit about the consequences of your actions.

At this point, Azazel's face loses its colour.

Azazel: Wait Zero, we can discuss this, you know my position in all this situation

Zero: No negotiation, old man.

Zikan Girade: Zikan Girade! Ken!

I pull out my Zikan Girade in sword mode radiating a shine of holy and unholy power, then takes out the Zi-O ride watch and insert it in the sword slot

Zikan Girade: Time Charge:...

Zero/Zikan Girade: 5...4...3...2...1...

Azazel: Stop, kid.

Zero/Zikan Girade : Zero Time

I execute a quick sword strike towards Azazel but the attack deflects slightly from the target to avoid him and crashes into a piece of building behind him creating a large explosion.

???: Guahhhh

A voice full of pain is heard from where the attack came from but when the smoke disperses nothing

Zero: Looks like our uninvited guest got away

Azazel: ... You used me as a distraction to uncover a spy, you're pretty cruel

Zero: No, that attack was meant for you, but I made better use of it, that's all.

Azazel: The youth of today have no respect for their elders

Zero: Come back and tell me that when you have done something that I would consider worthy of praise.

Everyone looks at me one more time dumbfounded, bashing the governer of the Fallen Angel like nothing

After this, each group reported back to their superiors about what happened

Technically representing the Shinto and Yokai faction I was able to discuss at the leaders' table and it was agreed that a peace treaty should be signed between the three biblical factions

It was decided that the treaty should be made in Kuoh, but I was formally opposed to the three factions making the treaty here, given the last two events that had occurred there, not forgetting the hostage-taking of the town's population due to the negligence of the three factions.

After much debate, I agreed that the treaty could only be made in Kuoh if the Shinto and Yokai factions were present at the signing and with other points that will be exposed that day.

After some thought, everyone agreed to my request and returned to their respective domains.

I rebuilt the school to a new state, with more classrooms and several facilities here and there with an advanced security system that will protect the school even from a meteorite crash.

...

// Timeskip //

After the meeting and the rebuilding of the school, I head back home. I open the door and take off my shoes when I hear footsteps.

Amagi: Welcome back Zero.

Zero: I am back, Amagi.

I take Amagi in my arms and give her an affectionate hug.

Zero: How are you feeling?

Amagi: Thanks to your healing, I've never felt more alive.

We look into each other's eyes and exchange a kiss.

Zero: Everything is going well in the Sakura Empire?

Amagi: Everyone is doing well, the destroyers are always asking for you to come to play with them. Even Akagi and Kaga keep asking me when your next visit will be.

Zero: So much?

Amagi: More than you know, my dear.

After bathing Amagi with affection I head to my room to shower and change my clothes.

I go to a shelf where there is a black box to see that what was in it is not in its place

I take my photo album and start going through it

Zero: I understand how she found them

Then I take a cardholder and a sort cartridge which have my Brave Duel Deck and Data from the box

[ Brave Duel system detect ]

[ Integration in the Gamer system ]

[ Complet ]

[ Star King deck add ]

[ Device "Stella Schwert" acquired ]

An earring appears in my ear

Stella: Guten Tag, your majesty

Zero: Yo, Stella it's been a long time my friend

Stella: It is my king

[ Midchildian Magic, Ancient Belka Magic, Modern Belka Magic acquired ]

[ Dungeon "Mahou Shojo Lyrical Nanoha" (movie continuity) unlocked ]

Zero: My luck.

I put the cardholder and data cartridge away in my inventory and head to the living room in my true form when I open the door, the room goes silent and a lot of heads turn to me with several gasps of surprise

Joule : Ah, Onii-chan is back

Joule runs to me and takes me in his arms and rubs his face against my belly

Atalanta: Ah, Joule that's not fair it was my turn today

Joule: First come, first served

Atlanta: Mumumu

I stroke Joule and Atalanta's heads

Zero: Joule how many times have I told you not to be mean to your sister

Joule: I am just saying a facts

Zero: Even if it is, don't forget the family come first

Joule: Sorry Atalanta-nee

Atalanta: Excuse accepted, but you owe me a slice of apple pie

Joule: Why not, No?

Joule starts running out of the living room

Atalanta: Come back here

The young feline runs after her, I can't help but let out a slight laugh

Medaka: That smile, brings back memories

A voice said from behind me, it was Medaka and Momoyo

Zero: It took me 3 years to be able to smile like that again but compared to you who still smiles even after what happened is nothing at all

Medaka: You're still as bad as before I'd say you've become worse, should I fix it for you?

Zero: I will do without it thanks.

Medaka: Good I'd rather see you like this than the way you were before

Zero: Thank you for the compliment, especially coming from you

Medaka: You can be cute when you want to

Zero: Remind me again why we are friends?

Medaka: Because you are the one who gave my life meaning, to make the whole world smile.

Zero: I was too nice for my own good in the past.

Momoyo: And you still are today.

Momoyo say before making a submission grab from behind

Zero: Momo-nee?

Momoyo: You little punk, you know that everyone has been worried since you haven't shown up for our annual meetings for more than 3 years

Zero: I know, I was planning to visit you soon but a certain crow decided to make my life difficult even though it will serve us well in the end.

Momoyo: I wish I had faced him. He seems strong

Zero: You would have lost, even with your new skills, even Gramps Teichin at full power will lose against him

Momoyo: If I don't try I'll never know

Zero: It's not a martial arts fight but a fight where you put your life on the line, this guy has several hundred years of fighting under his belt. Even me, who is strong enough to fight against powerful people, had a hard time keeping up for a while because he was so sneaky at times

Momoyo: Train me then? Lu-chan says you have a hell training that does miracles.

Zero: I don't care, ask your king for that.

Medaka: Now that I think about it your appearance is different from before, how come?

I explain to them why I have this form in an abbreviated version

Momoyo: Wow, I'm jealous that you have so many pretty girls around you, even Yamato-kun would cry tears of blood

Medaka: It would be the same for Zenkichi

Zero: I can imagine, it's good to see you again, I'm going to visit the others, make yourself at home.

Medaka: Got it, oh and one thing, Zero-chan

Zero: What?

Medaka approaches me and gives me a short kiss on the lips

Medaka: It's a few years late but it's my thanks for always protecting me and being there for me, I love you

Zero: ...

Medaka's confession makes me blush.

Sona: Zero who blushed? Take a picture quickly, this is an unprecedented moment.

Multiple flashes unleashed in the living room taking me out of my daze

Momoyo: Wow you are a lady killer, I'm proud of you.

Zero: I didn't expect this at all, who would have thought that the great Kurokami Medaka who looked down on everyone and didn't care about how others who were inferior to her felt just confessed her love for her rival.

Medaka: Aren't you overreacting a bit Zero-chan?

Zero: Maybe you're right.

I look at Medaka's eyes and they show a flame of determination.

Zero: I see you've thought this through I guess.

Medaka: I have.

Zero: Lu is in on it, isn't she?

Medaka: Who knows?

Zero: Ma~ it's not a bad thing to have you as a girlfriend, but Maguro-nii will come for my head for sure.

Medaka: Don't worry I'll take care of Nii-sama's case.

Zero: I'm more worried now.

After chatting with the monstrous duo I head to the outside terrace only to see Hayate alone

Zero: Hayate you're all alone, where are Signum-sensei and Rein-chan

Hayate: Zero-han? Is that you?

Hayate turns to me and asks surprised to see my appearance

Zero: What, surprised?

Hayate: You look so cool

She responds by looking at me from all angles and touches me here and there

Zero: Thank you for the compliment, Ate-chan, but could you stop touching me in inappropriate places, please.

Hayate: Don't say that, we're very close. We've even taken baths together many times.

I give a light karate chop on Hayate's head

Hayate: Kunyu...

Hayate: Heheh, I missed your chop on my head.

She says with a smile while rubbing her head

Zero: Hayate...

Hayate: What?

Zero: Come here.

I open my arms towards her, when she saw my action without wasting a moment she jumped into my arms and cuddle in them.

Zero: Happy?

Hayate: Um...

Zero: I see

I pat Hayate's head

Hayate: You know everyone at Uminari wants to see you again. Alisia, King, Sterne, Amitie and the others.

Zero: ...

Hayate: When Lu-chan came to Yagamido saying she knew you and where you were, at first we were sceptical but when she showed us pictures of you, we were very happy, but in exchange, we have to be part of her pieces.

Zero: Sorry I didn't give you any news for so many years, but now I'm back and I'm going anywhere

Hayate: You better or you're going to get hit, mister.

Zero: Hai hai, I think you've had enough hugs, young miss.

Hayate: Heh~ but I want to stay like this again being in your arms is comfortable and warm.

Zero: Hayate.

Hayate: If you kiss me on my lips

Zero: Hayate? What are you talking about if this is another one of your jokes it's not funny

Hayate: I'm serious, and you knew how we all felt about you, right? You were playing the dense guy because you didn't want to hurt us all, that's why when you left town you didn't say anything because you knew it would hurt some people.

Zero: *Sigh* (Lu what are you trying to do by sending so many girls my way)

Zero: That right, I wanted to protect your bond with each other from being broken, because of me, even if it means making you all angry at me.

Hayate: Idiot.

Zero: I was, If I take my responsibility and decide to respond to your feelings, would you want to be with someone like me, I mean don't you want me all to yourself?

Hayate: Of course I would like to have you all to myself, but I know that having you all to myself would be selfish of me towards the other girls, so after your departure, we all talk about it and we all decided to share you if the chance came up because we all know that if you accept us you will treat all of us fairly.

Zero: I'm not a perfect man, personally and morally, you know.

Hayate: I know, but I decided since I first saw you that you would be the only man in my life.

We look into each other's eyes before our faces come together and exchange a kiss before we separate

Hayate: It has a taste of lemon, I may get addicted to this.

Zero: My luck.

Hayate: But I'm glad I could confess these feelings that I bottle for so many years.

Zero: I will never understand what you see in me seriously, but if it makes you smile I am willing to pay the price.

Hayate: What a man, but others are waiting for you.

Zero: But what about you?

Hayate: No but go, if you mess up with the others, you'll have to deal with all of us.

Zero: See you later, Mistress of the Yagami

Hayate: See you later, our Star King

I smile and give her a quick kiss that leaves her red-faced before heading off to find Nanoha and Fate.

A moment later Signum and Reinforce arrive at Hayate's side

Reinforce: I haven't seen our mistress blush like that in a long time, Master Zero is something.

Signum: I must admit that he has become more manly, charming and attractive than before I wonder if he has something for older women.

Hayate: According to Lu-chan, he has many women older than him as lovers

Signum: I see.

...

I walk towards the garden to see Nanoha talking with Fate.

Zero: Fate, Nanoha.

Fate and Nanoha turn to me and are surprised at my true form

Fate: Zero is that you?

Zero: I know it's weird to be seen in my true form for the first time.

Nanoha: So why are you here?

Zero: I'm here to tell you both something important.

Fate: To tell us something important?

I take my cardholder out of my pocket and point it at them

Zero: I challenge you both to a battle on Brave Duel
