Strength| * Occult Research Club
* Sona Sitri's Peerage

* Megumi Mitsuzuri

A skirmish between members of the young Devils who attended Kuoh Academy and the Khaos Brigade's Magician Faction; Nilrem.

## **Prelude**

While the Occult Research Club was talking to the chairman of the Magician association Grauzauberer; Mephisto Pheles, he revealed that Phoenix Tears which had been passed around to the terrorists in secret, while originally assumed to merely be the work of a rogue distributor, that there also existed tears, which weren't produced by the House of Phenex and had effects comparable to the real ones and were being sold on the black market. Mephisto also reveals that groups of Stray Magicians are targeting and trying to make contact with members of the Phenex clan, warning Ravel Phenex to be careful. When Rias Gremory and Yuuto Kiba departed for Romania, Kuoh Academy came under attack by Stray Magicians, and Megumi the former kidnapped Ravel, Koneko and Gasper while the latter attacked Issei.

## **History**

Receiving a note from the Stray Magicians, the Devils of Kuoh Academy made their way to the underground station, which is used to go to the Gremory territory, as the Stray Magicians have made their base there. Due to the fact that Issei had expended a lot of his energy and suffered great amount of damage during his fight with Megumi, Issei was incapable of using his Balance Breaker; Boosted Gear Scale Mail. While entering the area the group took a battle formation.

For the offence, the vanguards were "Knight" Xenovia, "Ace" Irina, "Jack" Tayuya, "Pawn" Saji, "Knight" Meguri and "Rook" Yura. The middle-guards were "Pawn" Issei, "Queen" Akeno, "Rook" Rossweisse, "Queen" Shinra and "Pawn" Nimura. The rearguards were "King" Sona and "Bishops"; Asia, Kusaka and Hanakai. The formation was set so the close-range type members were positioned as vanguards, the members who fight from a long-range were positioned as middle-guards, and the rearguards consisted of support-type members and the person giving commands as the central pillar. Arriving to meet the Stray Magicians, the two groups began to battle, with the Magicians shooting our various elemental attacks and summoning various monsters. Xenovia leapt forward, making a big swing with Ex-Durandal, and slammed down the many magic attacks headed towards the group with the holy aura. Rossweisse, who was the middle-guard also shot her full burst and supported Xenovia’s attack as the herd of monsters that were charging towards the group were vaporised in one hit from Rossweisse attack. The remaining attacks were blocked by Yura's Sacred Gear. However, the battle ended halfway due to the stray magicians being killed by light swords surprising the group, but Akio states that Megumi wants to challenge them all at full strength.

Reaching to where Ravel, Koneko and Gasper were, the group was shocked by the emergence of the legendary Evil Dragon Grendel. Megumi tells Grendel that she's 'allowing' him to fight to gauge their strengths.

Issei equipped his **Scale Mail**, as he engaged Grendel in a fight though Grendel was able resist his attacks even from Issei's Welsh Dragonic Rook form. Issei then transformed into **Cardinal Crimson Promotion**, as he became capable of fighting equally against Grendel, punching him with attacks enhanced by Ascalon's *Dragon Slayer* aura. As the rest of the group attempted to assist Issei in fighting Grendel, a dark aura emerged from Gasper as it began to devour the space around him. Tayuya created her *Soul Splitter*. to cut

The hooded figure, revealed to be Euclid Lucifuge told Grendel and Megumi to retreat but Megumi refuses to leave making both Euclid and Grendel teleported away, with Ravel marking the Phoenix Tears that Nilrem was producing with her magic.

After Euclid and Grendel left, the group then prepared to fight against Megumi, but she asks if they know where Ophis was to which Issei tells her that Ophis was at Kuoh Academy then asks if she is happy confusing the group.

Megumi fought against the group briefly in which they lost but Megumi was surprised by Tayuya's *True Manifestation* they were given a scroll as a reward.

## **Conclusion**

Euclid Lucifuge's survival threw the current Devil government into a hysteria as Grayfia Lucifuge was placed under house arrest in the Gremory castle due to the perception that she had lied about her brother being deceased. With Euclid's role as the Nilrem leader revealed, Azazel began to suspect that there was someone behind the scenes trying to unify the factions on the Khaos Brigade into one and fill the power vacuum that had been created after the defeat and dissolution of the Old Satan Faction and Hero Faction.
