DxD : i am the honored one

"What is a human doing here?" The one who asked was an attractive young woman with purple eyes, and a curvaceous, slender figure. She had long, silky black hair that reached her waist, and possessed two pairs of black feathered wings that were characteristic of her race. This was none other than Raynare, the target of Narberal's mission this time.

Normally, Raynare would never be afraid of a human. She was a typical fallen angel with an arrogance towards races inferior to her. However, the current situation made Raynare feel strange. A girl wearing maid armor actively seeking them out was definitely not normal.

"Who are you?" Raynare asked warily. Meanwhile, her subordinates didn't seem to be that smart.

"A beautiful girl actively seeking me out. I'll have fun with her before killing her." Dohnaseek said while looking at Narberal with a lewd gaze. His two teammates Kalawarma and Mittelt didn't seem to care too much about Narberal's appearance. They simply thought that a random human would definitely not be able to stand up to Dohnaseek. However, what happened before their eyes was something they never dared to think of. 

"Trash." 

Narberal just stood there, then she clasped her hands together and slowly opened them. A powerful lightning appeared between her palms. A dragon-shaped lightning bolt flew straight towards Dohnaseek. Narberal's attack was so fast and unexpected that the fallen meditator could only stand there and take all the damage from the magical attack. 

Dohnaseek died instantly, the fallen angel's body fell to the ground while being burned black. What happened before their eyes was too fast for Raynare and the others to process until Narberal flew up to their eye level. They were too scared to think about what they could do now, the person in front of them was simply too strong. She could kill Dohnaseek with just one blow while they didn't even have time to see what was happening.

"Of the three of you, which one is Yuuma."

Raynare felt scared when she heard this name, this was the fake name she used to blend into the human world.

"Why do you want to meet Yuuma." Raynare asked carefully. She didn't know what the purpose of the girl in front of her was.

"My master wants to meet someone named Yuuma. It's best not to waste my time." Narberal said with annoyance. She wanted to finish this mission quickly.

""I am Yuuma.""" The three fallen angels said at the same time. Kalawarma and Mittelt understood that they would die like Dohnaseek so the best way to escape the death sentence was to admit that they were Yuuma. 

Narberal frowned at these lies but quickly calmed down and pointed at each of them. A small bolt of lightning shot out from her fingertips, causing each of the fallen angels to be electrocuted and fall unconscious. 

"I will bring all three of you back to Hanzo-sama. Consider yourself lucky to be a pawn in Hanzo-sama's plan to rule the world." 

An important pawn in helping Hanzo control the Sekiryuutei. 

—————————

While Narberal finished her mission and returned home, Hanzo went with Rias' group to her mansion. 

"You have good taste in choosing your 'home' Rias-senpai." Hanzo whistled as he saw the mansion before him. 

"Thank you for the compliment, I will lead you to Koneko's room." Rias said and led Hanzo to Koneko's room. The two stopped when they reached a room. Rias then knocked on the door and said. 

" Koneko, it's me. I'll go inside." 

Rias entered the room and couldn't help but feel sad when she saw Koneko's condition. Koneko looked extremely tired, she was just sitting huddled in the corner of the room. Her eyes were swollen from crying, her body was tired from not eating or drinking for many days. 

" ...Rias-sama ." 

"Koneko, I brought someone to meet you." Rias said, making Koneko look at the person standing behind Rias. Immediately, Koneko became scared and looked extremely agitated when she saw Hanzo. She tried to back away but couldn't because the wall blocked her.

Seeing Koneko's condition, Rias panicked and went to comfort her. Rias felt extremely sorry and heartbroken seeing her servant like this. And what hurt her the most was that she couldn't do anything to Koneko other than comfort and comfort her.

"I'm here, Koneko. I'm here, no one will hurt you."

"Rias-senpai. Let me talk to Koneko alone. I'll help her." Hanzo said. Rias just looked at him with uncertain eyes. She didn't know whether to let Hanzo be alone with Koneko or not. After a moment of thinking, Rias decided to put her trust in Hanzo.

"Please, help Koneko." Rias looked at Hanzo with expectant eyes before leaving. Leaving Hanzo and Koneko alone in a room.

That made Koneko nervous and scared. Hanzo knew this so he didn't rush to approach Koneko. Hanzo used magic to make sure no one could spy or eavesdrop on his conversation with Koneko. He then got off her bed and said.

"Shirone, I didn't come here to hurt you."

Shirone immediately felt scared and worried when Hanzo mentioned this name.

"…How did you know?…" Koneko felt shocked because only a few people knew about her past.

"Haa… I know quite a lot."

"You… Do you know Onee-sama?" Koneko asked carefully.

"Well, I know Kuroka. She's my friend. I know about what she did to you." Hanzo said frankly.

"…" Koneko remained silent after hearing what Hanzo said.

"Speak Shirone. "Do you hate your sister?"

Koneko wasn't surprised by this question as she had predicted this at some point.

"…I don't know." That was the only answer she could come up with after thinking for a while.

"Hmmm, then let me tell you this, as long as you don't answer yes to that question, you don't hate your sister." Hanzo smiled as he said that.

"…Huh?" Koneko looked at Hanzo with a confused expression.

"Listen, if you truly hate someone, then you will definitely answer 'yes' if you're honest with yourself. If you hesitate and can't come up with a definite answer, then there's something inside you that's preventing you from truly hating that person. After all, hate is a very strong feeling, you can't deny it."

"…" Koneko continued to fall into silence, she also understood that she didn't truly hate her sister. She only felt betrayed, but in fact, Koneko still missed her sister in her heart.

"… Let me tell you a story. One day, a cat family lived happily there. But that didn't last long because the mother cat had an unfortunate accident, leaving behind two kittens."Hanzo said and then moved from the bed to sit next to Koneko. Even though the girl still felt scared, she decided to stay still.

"The black cat promised herself that she would take care of her little sister, the white cat."

"But they couldn't survive on their own, luckily there was a kind person who wanted to take care of them. The black cat happily and innocently followed her brother and sister. "

"It turned out that the kind person was actually a bad person who liked to abuse the people he had adopted."

"The little girl wanted to run away with her sister, but that person tied her up with a very strong chain and threatened to harm her sister."

"With no other choice, she kept the secret from her sister and silently endured the abuse. Until one day she heard that evil man and his friends talking and planning to do what they were doing to her, to her little sister."

"She rose up and the rage that had been building up inside her over the years exploded."

"Using the claws that had grown from her abuse, she killed the villain and his friend in a fit of rage."

"Inevitably, she panicked as soon as she realized what she had done. Her first thought was for her sister's safety."

"She weighed her options and chose to run away alone. She thought that running away with her sister would put her at unnecessary risk. She didn't want her sister to be chased along with her. All she could do was watch her sister from afar. To her, her sister was her whole world."

Beside her, Koneko started to shed tears as she understood the story that Hanzo was trying to imply. The white cat was her and the black cat was none other than her sister. Koneko understood that if what she just heard was true, then she had misunderstood her sister all along. She sobbed while continuously calling her sister's name.

"Oneesama. Kuroka-onesama. Please, let me see Onesama." Koneko begged Hanzo.

"I'm not sure… I can't take you to Kuroka.. However, I can help you talk to her."

"Please, help me talk to Kuroka-oneesama. I beg you." Koneko sobbed.

"Okay, wait for me a moment." Hanzo took out his phone and texted someone.

Koneko curiously looked at Hanzo's phone and saw that he was texting someone named [Battle Maniac Idiot.]

[Hey]

[?]

[Help me contact Kuroka.]

[Why?.]

[Help me contact Kuroka.]

[Okay.]

"Wait a moment Shirone. You'll be able to talk to your sister soon."
