High School DxD: Scotland Forever - Chapter 9.2 (Patreon)

Y'know, there was one thing Yarden totally forgot in all his hung-ho, fast paced desire to speed things along. It was honestly a tiny thing anyone could have overlooked really.

Irina wore a cross necklace around her neck. Yarden realised it when she was laying down and he was already in the process of reincarnating her as his Knight as part of his peerage.

…Yet, in the end, despite his own stupidity, it turned out fine. Granted, she'd have only gotten a simple burn really depending on how quick he was, since he knew Xenovia as a devil could not pray or touch crosses and such, but again, it turned out fine.

Her supple skin did not sizzle at all under the holy object in the shape of a necklace.

The question there though; was it a trait passed on by him through the evil pieces features as Serafall explained to him, or did Irina receive the same blessing as him that allowed him to speak gods name and touch holy objects?

It was a boon nonetheless, but even with that, their problems did not end. For you see, Irina didn't have any clothes left beyond a single other battle suit being stored at the church she set up base at with Xenovia.

Which meant, shopping. Straight after she reincarnated too, in the blinding sun. Which weakened newly reincarnated devils and caused them pain.

The only reason such a thing did not apply to him, was because he was descended from the glorious sun of Scotland!
Well, they just had to suck it up and get it done quick, right? To make sure Irina didn't spend too much time in the sun before she adjusted properly and acclimated to being a devil.

….Only, she suffered no adverse effects under the sun either.

'Curious,' Yarden mused, leaning against the wall outside the changing rooms of a female clothing shop, specifically, an underwear shop, because his girl- new fiance, didn't have any underwear with her now either, 'Is it just because of my bloodline and the Evil Pieces?' he wondered.

He didn't think it would show results so quickly, despite what Serafall said. Though, she did mention it was a feature included to try and let the devils strengthen their bloodlines by having peerage members give them children.

Perhaps his own bloodline just resonated well with the evil pieces?

'You're on the right track I think, but remember, your own power has been improved upon due to your dragon heart and lungs now, become more potent,' Vritra added, 'And don't forget, I am part of you as well and my specialty is binding remember? It is an intrinsic part of my being, and that flows through to you as well. Those secondary effects of the Evil Pieces belonging to you, will reflect that.'

Oh yeah, that was right. He totally forgot that as much as Vritra was part of him, he was also part of Vritra, the connection between them was that tight.

Something else occurred to him;

'Hey, why haven't I had any over build up of dragon power since yesterday?' he asked. He'd expected it to build up and overflow again by now.

'I cut out the middle man as you like to say,' Vritra gave a mental shrug, 'I'm still connected partly to those Twice Critical, so I'm feeding the excess into the two in possession of Serafall and Irina.'

Huh, that was handy. And it saved him so much time, effort and bother as well! Vritra really was the best dragon, way more useful than Ddraig or Albion really.

'More diverse perhaps, but better over all, that's a good goal to aim for in the future.' Vritra chuckled.

That, he could agree with. Just because he fully respected his godly ancestor Belenus and William Wallace, did not mean he did not desire to completely and utterly surpass them.

Really, the only draw back to this was he couldn't go get Akeno to suck out the dragon energy for him and use it as an excuse to wave his cock about in her face.

Before he could think on that lovely image a bit more, the sound of his fiance's voice broke him from his thoughts, "Yarden, can you come in here?"

The shop attendant who was on the other side of the waiting room gave him a odd look, but he ignored her and did just that, opening the door and sliding in.

He found Irina standing in front of a mirror in the small cubicle like room, a pile of multiple different types of underwear folded on a small sitting ledge attached to the wall, while Irina was only wearing the shirt of his he'd given her to wear until they got more clothes for her.

"What's up?" he asked.

"I wanted to get your opinion on how well these fit, just to make sure!" Irina beamed at him.

Well honestly, she'd probably be better getting the attendant, a literal professional to do it.

…But he wanted to see what she had under there.

"Fine with me." he grinned roguishly at her, making a show off eyeing her bare legs.

"You perv!" Irina giggled, but didn't back down herself and grasped the unbuttoned sides of the shirt and whipped it open, baring her torso to him, "Taadaaa!"

Yarden's eyes widened when he found himself looking at his fiance clad in a set of frilly, pure white lingerie, the panties a with a thin strip at the hips nearing that of a thong and the cups of the bra pushing up her huge breasts deliciously, and the way her cross was jostled in between those tits of hers?

My god, just…chefs kiss!

"What'ya think?" Irina asked with a wide smile, despite the flush on her cheeks, holding the shirt wide open for him to get a real good view.

"Gorgeous," he grinned widely, like a dragon with prey in sight causing her to giggle, "You look so sexy in that, it makes me want to corrupt you."

"You already corrupted me though, you corrupted a pure holy maiden like myself into becoming a devil," she teased back, "I've become a lewd corrupt devil who's blatantly showing off her underwear to the one who corrupted her."

"We're gonna have a lot of fun together," he licked his lips hungrily, making her gulp a bit, "Actually, there's something I've been curious about, just how big are those breasts of yours?" he asked hotly, stepping forward and lifting a hand to cup one of the them in his hand through her bra.

God, the weight of it felt amazing in his hand. Was there anything that could make a man feel more powerful than the large, full and heavy weight of a gorgeous woman's voluptuous tits in the palm of his hand?

He could somewhat understand the Virgin Dragon Emperors utter obsession with them. Too bad he'd never be able to appreciate them the way he could, from the perspective of power.

"..Ah..." Irina shivered as he traced her breast through the pure white frilly bra gently, "I'm…they're eighty seven centimetres, in cup size..I guess I'm an E-cup?"

Despite himself, a whistle left his mouth, he was impressed, "An amazing pair of breasts for such an amazing girl, huh?" his dastardly bastardly grin reappeared and he leaned forward to capture her lips.

…Only for a knocking sound to come from the door, "Excuse me, dear customers, please don't fool around in there." the voice of the attendant floated through.

She was onto them!

With a sigh, Yarden reluctantly let go of Irina's breast, "We can continue this later when we have the privacy."

"…Mmm.." Irina nodded simply, breathing hotly.

He pecked her on the lips, then slipped back out of the changing room to wait. He caught the attendant staring at him disapprovingly.

So Yarden done what any true Scotsman would do in that situation. He spread his arms out wide and leaned against the wall opposite of her and grinned victoriously, assuming the legendary T-pose!

Establishing dominance just came naturally to him after all.

Vritra sighed.

                                                                        ___________

After that, he let Irina just go wild. They were already in the biggest shopping centre in Kuoh, so he just handed her his card and let her go grab whatever she wanted.

A mistake on his part.

As air headed as his new fiance could be, and as frugal as holy maidens like her tended to live. She was still a girl with free reign to spend whatever amount she wanted basically…on clothes shopping.

Sitting at the cafe in up in the middle of the large variety of clothing shops, he got to see her zooming to and from multiple a shop, he even caught her slipping into a costume shop at one point.

And each time he caught sight of her, she was carrying more and more and more shopping bags. Seriously, by time Irina finally began making her way over to him, she had literally over twenty bags in her hands.

She was lucky she was freaking superhuman man.

Getting up out of his seat, Yarden made his way over to meet her, but just before he reached her, a literal pair of delinquent skin heads swaggered over to her and blocked her off.

"Can I help you guys?" Irina asked, head tilting to the side in confusion.

"You're pretty cute," one of them leered at her, leaning over her, he was a few inches taller than her, "Wanna hang with us girlie, have some fun?" he wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.

"No thanks," Irina instantly shot him down, "I have a fiance." she added, quite matter of factly.

"Pssh, a fiance at your age?" the other one scoffed, "I think you need a better excuse, I mean if you have a fiance where is this little-"

The idiot running his mouth yelped as Yarden's hand fisted into the back of his head and lifted him up off his feet, "I'm right here, dipshit." the teen scoffed, then tossed the idiot over his shoulder, hearing a loud smack and the idiot groaning in pain a second later as he landed.

"Chinny!" the other cried in shock, before turning to Yarden and reaching into his jacket and pulling out a metal rod, "Who the hell do you think you are pa-"

He was cut off like his friend as Yarden stepped forward and the delinquent saw just how much big of a difference there was in size between them. Strictly speaking, for an Asian, the guy was pretty tall, a good five-seven, and had a decently fit looking toned build.

But Yarden was over six feet tall and built like a brick house, "Naw, who the fuck are you talkin' tae ya wee bawbag?" he snarled, looking down into his eyes.

And the delinquent just locked up, going so still he looked like he wasn't even breathing, looking almost like a statue.

"That was pretty mean, they're just normal humans y'know?" Irina pointed out as he passed the frozen fool by to stand in front of her.

"I didn't use any power or anything." Yarden shrugged, losing all traces of hostility in a minute, "Nice outfit." he complimented, taking in the clothes she was wearing now.

A pretty cute ensemble of a lavender sweater that hung off of her shoulders, green mini-skirt with dark leggings and a purple jacket thrown over the top. And the little lavender beret she wore on top completed the look, not to mention he could see a hint of her cleavage because of how low the sweater hung, even showing off the straps of a black bra that had some kind of flower design on the straps.

"Thanks!" Irina beamed, "Thanks for letting me buy all these by the way, I had a lot of fun! It was rare I got to shop for new clothes back at the English Protestant Church."

"Don't mention it, I told you, I'd make sure you were well looked after, right?" he pointed out, holding his hand out for him to pass half of the bags to him, "This is a tiny thing really, plus, I'm definitely not complaining about getting to see you in all these different outfits." he added as he took the bags and then slipped his other arm around her waist.

"…Well I did grab some things I thought you'd like." she giggled.

"Thank you God, my girl is both hot and awesome." Yarden praised the Big G as they began walking away, leaving the delinquents where they were, one frozen in terror, the other groaning in pain like a wimp on the floor.

Honestly, they were just lucky they didn't get the T-Pose of domination as well.

"So, where are we going now?" Irina asked, "Back to the hotel?"

"To drop your stuff off yeah," Yarden nodded, "But, there's something I want to try out and get a feel for before tonight."

"Because you think Kokabiel will make his move tonight?" Irina hummed in question.

"Exactly." he nodded.

It was time to get a feel for his newly evolved Balance Breaker.

                                                                              ____________

Once they made a quick trip back to their hotel room and dropped off Irina's new stuff, they quickly made their way to the park where Yarden had spent most of his day yesterday while Vritra was integrating one of his fragments and reclaiming the Absorption Line ability.

"You sure you're able to handle it?" Yarden asked, standing in the middle of a clearing within the park.

Despite the fact it was sunny outside, there was a dark purple glow cast over the area due to the strongest barrier he could muster being thrown up around the area to hide his power, he didn't want to alert Kokabiel after all, to just how fucked he really was.

"Mmm, it's fine," Irina waved him off from where she stood next to one of the walls of the barrier, "All I really need to do is channel my energy into it, I'm not really used to the devil magic, but I can at least do this much, I worked hard to learn how to use my light-element y'know since I was playing catch up with Xenovia."

Oh yeah, that was right. Unlike Xenovia who was born a natural born holy sword wielder, Irina was not. Her light element, barely a blip had been formed due to the Holy Sword Project.

The fact she'd raised her magic power up to as high as it was through that, in what little time she had it, raising her magical power above Xenovia's by quite a substantial amount, was quite impressive.

As should be expected of his woman though.

"Alright, brace yourself then!" Yarden nodded, "I don't know how rough this will get!" he added, before summoning his sacred gear in the base state.

Then, he focused on the combined Sacred Gear itself for a moment. He could feel how much stronger it was now while combined, even in the base state and he could easily feel the new abilities within it that Vritra spoke of.

"Alright, here we go!" Yarden punched one gauntlet clad fist into the air, the shining royal purple gem on the back of it flashing.

"Scottish Dragon Balance Breaker!" Vritra's voice echoed powerfully out of it, resounding throughout the entire barrier.

A massive wave of power exploded out of him, roaring in his ears and drowning everything out as the familiar feeling of his power and physical ability soared to all new heights enshrouded his being alongside the ebony dark armour that formed alongside it.

It took quite a bit of effort to reign in the massive explosion of power that erupted from him upon transforming. 'I'll need to work on that so I don't waste energy.' he mused.

"…Oh wow!" Irina's gasping voice broke him from his thoughts and he looked at her through his helmet to see her leaning against the barrier, panting deeply and her skin slick with sweat despite being fine just a moment ago.

The barrier had numerous cracks throughout it, but it seemed to be holding strong for the moment.

…If not for Irina reinforcing it, it might have just broken outright from his power being unleashed in this state.

As he looked at his beautiful fiance though, he could see his reflection staring back at him from the shimmering barrier she was leaning against.

Wow….the changes were simple, and not that much at the end of the day, but at the same time, it looked completely different now from the basic bitch copy of the Scale Mail.

'Oh yes, very sorry I only had a fraction of my abilities to work with for that.' Vritra huffed and Yarden could feel him rolling his eyes.

He ignored his partners pouting for now, too caught up in looking himself over. The armour, had become quite a bit bulkier than the Scale Mail copy, and dozens of razor sharp spikes now littered the armour. His tail had become much thicker and more powerful looking and extended into a massive drill larger than a human head, surrounded by deadly looking spikes. The helmet had horns forming from the side of the cheeks up to over the head and the boots and gauntlets had formed claws.

And there in the middle of the chest, the plate extended outwards into a carbon copy of Vritra's head and, glowing royal purple eyes on its head and within its mouth he could see a much larger royal purple jewel.

All in all, he looked like a complete fucking badass. Scale Mail had fucking nothing on this beastly Balance Breaker. And he felt amazing! Like he could take on and kill a god!

'A lower tier god, yes, I'd give you good odds.' Vritra agreed.

Just good odds huh, and only a lower tier one? Heh, well, he had just the thing for that now didn't he.

He clenched his armoured clawed fist before punching it into the air and activating the newest ability Vritra had given him, "Boost!" Vritra's voice echoed once more.

And as his power and ability swelled to even greater heights, Yarden could not help but laugh, yes, with this, he was even more confident in his strength.

And this was without summoning Grian!
