## Summary

The first battle between members of Team DxD and members of the Alliance of Hell, as members of the Occult Research Club try to protect a young girl from being exploited by the Alliance of Hell due to the power of her Longinus.

## Prelude

During one of Issei Hyoudou's Devil jobs, he encountered a purple haired girl as they were attacked by a group of Unknown Devils which Issei defeated as the girl disappeared. Later Team DxD discussed the appearance of the Unknown Devils and Hades possible connection to them as they speculated that Hades may have found Lilith and forced her to produce the Unknown Devils.

Later the Occult Research Club was given a mission to subjugate the Unknown Devils. During the battle, the purple haired girl reappeared as she used her voice to stop Issei and Bova Tannin, rendering them powerless as Rossweisse subdued her with hypnosis magic. After that, the ORC took the girl back to the Hyoudou Residence, where Ajuka Beelzebub revealed her identity: Ingvild Leviathan, a descendant of the Leviathan Clan and possessor of one of the newly manifested Longinus: **Nereid Kyrie**. The ORC was given a order to protect Ingvild and defeat the mastermind behind her abduction attempt.

During the ORC's visit to the beach with Ingvild, they were ambushed by the Greek Goddess of the Night: Nyx, who revealed herself as the orchestrator behind Ingvild's abduction. She used the brainwashing spell that was implanted on Ingvild to weaken Issei as she escaped, taunting Issei that he couldn't save Ingvild. After returning to the Hyoudou Residence, the ORC received intel about Nyx's base of operation as they prepared to take the fight to her.

## History

The ORC and it's allies teleported to a uninhabited island near Greece, in the Aegean Sea, which was a island near Nyx base, as they couldn't directly teleport to her base due to a powerful barrier surrounding it. Tobio Ikuse used his Balance Breaker to cut open the barrier, allowing the group to proceed forward. As the group moved to the center of the island, they were met by a group of 1000 artificial Devils, who tried fighting them to stop their progress. Asia, Koneko, Ravel, Elmenhilde and Issei landed on an abandoned building as Issei escorted them to a abandoned church, where they were met a group of Unknown Devils, fighting them off. The swordsmen group (Xenovia, Irina, Kiba and Lint) rushed to assist them, allowing the group to move forward as the swordsmen group stayed behind to fight the Devils at the church.

The group of swordsmen were easily able to overwhelm the Unknown Devils as Vasco Strada joined to assist them but they told him that he didn't need to do anything. After defeating the Devils, one lone Devil tried to ambush Lint, but was killed by a strike from Cao Cao's Holy Spear, as he joined them and told them they should go outside to do a AoE attack.

Issei's group (Asia, Koneko, Ravel and Elmenhilde) meet with Rias' group (Akeno, Gasper, Rossweisse and Bova) as the two groups headed deeper into the island. As they approached the centre of the island, they reached Nyx's temple, where Nyx revealed herself. Nyx used her transportation magic to teleport 2000 more Artificial Devils to assist her as Issei assumed his **Diabolos Dragon God** form.

Issei launched a Dragon Shot at her but her *Godly Virgin Killer Clothes* dispersed the Dragon Shot, though Nyx was still blown back by the shockwave of the attack as Issei's comrades began fighting against the Artificial Devils. Issei launched another Dragon Shot at the Artificial Devils, eliminating a hundred of them in a single attack. Nyx resumed her battle with Issei as she covered her hands with a dark aura and fired out black bullets. Issei shot them down with his Dragon Shot and evaded them. Issei attempted to use *Penetrate* and Pailingual to read Nyx's thoughts, but her *Godly Virgin Killer Clothes* nullified the effect.

Listening to Ddraig's plan, Issei left Rias and Rossweisse to temporarily fight Nyx as he approached Akeno and used his *Pai-Phone* technique to contact Ingvild, asking her to sing for him. Ingvild's song empowered Issei and by using his *Transfer* ability, it also strengthened the rest of Issei's comrades. Issei used his Dress Break DxD to destroy Nyx's *Godly Virgin Killer Clothes*. Issei manifested Ddraig as the two defeated Nyx by combining Issei's *Infinity Blaster* and Ddraig's *Welsh Dragon Flare* attacks. After defeating Nyx, Issei and Ddraig assisted the rest of the group in defeating the remaining Artificial Devils.

## Conclusion

After defeating Nyx, the ORC delivered her to the higher-ups, who had her sealed for her role in causing chaos at the territory of the Three Factions.

While confirming Ingvild's condition after the battle, Issei's *Queen* Evil Piece resonated with Ingvild as she became his servant and Queen, promising to sing under his leadership. She was later offered treatment for her sleeping disease by Ajuka Beelzebub with the assistance from the Greek Gods; Hypnos, the Olympian God of Sleep, and Oneiros, the Olympian God of Dreams, which she accepted.

Due to the anger at Team DxD defeating his sister and King Enma rejecting the Alliance of Hell's invitation, Erebus decided to attack Kyoto with the assistance of Sonneillon and Gressil along with Tartarus.
