Sitri territory outskirts.

One week later.

I weaved between the lunges of some feline-type beasts who attacked me while the hellhounds looked from a fair distance away.

They wanted the other beasts to soften me up. Hilariously enough, they didn’t dare approach af...

Rias Gremory.

Sitri Mansion.

Holding a cup filled with wine made from the apples of the Bael territory, I sighed.

I loved Sona. She was my best friend since I was little, and seeing her turn eighteen was a once-in-a-lifetime moment, but I still regretted coming to this party.

I was tired. Tired of acting...

It was not often that I found myself curious about another devil my age. Or a bit younger, I supposed.

He didn’t look particularly interesting at first. Still, considering how I was seen by the rest of my peers at the party, I was happy enough to talk with him. We weren’t that differ...

Dante Andromalius.

Saturday, June 9th, 2007.

The hall filled quickly once Lord Sitri's invitation was extended.

Younger devils, mostly. Heirs and scions, each dressed to impress or intimidate, depending on who you asked. A few carried themselves with the quiet confidence of those who'd already earned their posit...

Saturday, June 9th, 2007.

There was less than an hour left before the carriage arrived. A birthday party for the daughter of the lord whose land we lived on. An opportunity Dante couldn’t afford to squander.

I didn’t know if he truly understood how important it was. Even if he assu...

Not because I enjoyed it, or because it was efficient. I ran because flying would have made all effort in vain, and right now, I needed every ounce of training I could manage.

The Sitri territory stretched wide beneath the fake sun. The roads were clean despite be...

Author's Note:
I hate aiming for 2k and ending up going way overboard again. I’ve written so much in these last two or three days I don’t even know anymore lmao. Either way, I hope you all enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it! This is the final update until next weekend. Wish me luck on my exams, I might need it lmao.

Chapter 3: When the Past Wakes.

Author’s Note:
Never thought writing a merging scene would be this hard. Trying to keep both identities valid instead of having one consume the other took way more rewrites than I expected. But here it is!
I’ll start writing Chapter 4 in a bit and post it in a couple of hours. It shouldn’t take as long now that I don’t have to second-guess every decision… hopefully lol.
Either way, enjoy! Chapter 2 will go public soon, so we’ll stay two chapters ahead...

Chapter 2: An Unexpected Guest.

Author’s Note:
Let me know what you think! As mentioned, I’ll be posting two chapters each update: one public and one early-access here, until I reach the five promised.
I’m really enjoying this idea so far. Being a crossover gives me a lot of interesting things to play with, and I already have plenty planned.

And yes… this story will have smut. I got scared back then, but here I can go wild.

The glare in her eyes didn’t diminish as I patted her head condescendingly. After all, she, better than anyone, knew how much her heated glare made me really feel.

A small part of me expected Vik to say no. Wouldn’t have blamed him. Their eyes kept flicking toward me like they expected some invisible army standing behind my shoulder.

Not me, exactly. Just whatever force they assumed was backing me.

Fear could be helpful, sure, but it was a tight rope. One wrong step a...

Waking up after being sure you were dead isn’t something you get used to as a cape. I’ve been in danger plenty of times. I’ve been hurt, cornered, half-fried, and once literally dropped off a building. But this?

This was the first time I genuinely didn’t see a way out.

Author's note: Still a bit under the weather. The fever is a constant thing lately, but I managed to get this out. Now, I'll see if I can post something later, but it will depend in how i feel. I said that I wanted to write something short, my vision was 2k or so, ended up being double and in one sitting, but... well, whatever. I just hope the quality isn't bad, but please let me know if you feel something is wrong or whatever. Hope y'all's week is going better t...

Chapter 94: A New Beginning.

Author's note: Another lore-heavy chapter, which is primarily why it took so long, but here it is! Some things are explained, other questions will arise, thanks to this chapter too, but everything will make sense in the end! I wonder what theories you all have about what I have fed y'all.

Also, Elias learns some bitter truths. The Truth hurts, and this chapter shows it better than most in this fic. I want you all to realize that everyone is in a doomed worl...

The morning sun hung pale over the school grounds, reminding me of better times. Not that things were bad now, or anything like that, but they certainly were… complicated.

Author’s Note:
Elias begins to realize that maybe they were a little too hasty with Iris’s decision, but it’s too late to stop it now. It’s still a good choice... just one with many, many risks attached. I wonder how it’ll all end, haha.

As for Zekram… I won’t lie, I struggled with his part a lot. I didn’t want a cartoonish antagonist, and I’m still not sure if I fully captured what I have in mind for him. Without saying too much, let...

“How do you wish to start, Eli?” Serafall asked with a bloodthirsty smile on her pretty face, her blue eyes almost sparkling, making me wonder if it was such a good idea to ask for this.

That was the first thing she noticed.

Not the kind you felt around winter in Brokton Bay. This one was absolute, crawling through her veins, pressing on her chest, sinking into her bones. She almost laughed, at least a part of her wanted to.

It had taken a concerning amount of time for Vik to fix, to the best of his abilities, the pair dropped onto our doorstep. In a way, I wasn’t blind to know why Vik had been so worried about it, if we were making a gonk decision or something similar, but I liked to trust in my feelings.

Chapter 90: A New Dawn.

Author’s Note:
This chapter fought me like hell, and I mean that literally. Two full rewrites and over twelve hours straight in front of the screen. Easily one of the toughest I’ve done so far, and I have no idea why. Maybe I’ve just been too deep into action arcs lately and forgot how to write proper slice of life. Still, I hope it holds up to the standard you’ve come to expect.

That said, I’ll be shifting gears for a bit. The next two updates...

Here it is, the lore reveal I’ve been planning for months.

Remember, this is an AU, and I’ll be playing with the cosmology of the world as much as I can. Not everything was explained here, and even though Odin knows a lot, he doesn’t know everything. Only I do. And it's juicy, tying up a bunch of things missing from this story.

Think of this chapter as a glimpse into how I’ll hand...

Author's note: So, this is the opening chapter. I will write it every time I need a break of CA, which, like I said in the messages, won't be that common, or at least I hope. Next chapter is CA, without a doubt, but I might play with this idea for a bit too, depending on my muse. At the cost of repeating myself, I will say again that I don't plan, nor want, to drop CA, so don't fear that. I still love that story, but I will use some breaks to plan properly the plot.<...

Author's note: Finally, chapter is here. Elias takes the work of a therapist... and it's much more successful. Lol. The damn format went to hell in the last section of the chap and I had to manually fix it, it was horrible, but at least the update is here!!
Next chapter in 3-4 days, without fail!
Character development went big this chapter, but I still need to fix Tonksie's situation... which is a mess, but believe me, it will be resolved.

Author's note: Tried to do something different instead of the usual fight scene in Elias's Pov... It was so freaking hard, like holy hell. It took me so damn long to flesh it out and give it form. No idea if I'll do something like this in the future lol. But I wanted to see how people see Elias's when he goes all biblical. And... it is not pretty. At all.
Damn. I'm tired, arrived home at like 1 a.m., it's almost 6:00 a.m. and I'm barely finishing.

Author's note: I don't think I like political chapters. I think that's the reason I got burnt out from A Stark Shard. Thankfully this fic doesn't focus on that often. Even then, this shit fought me hard and grew to almost 8k words. That's two chaps in one lol.

Either way, hope you enjoy it, and next chapter is the start of the peace meeting. A bit bigger than the Canon one, obviously. I think that's all I wanted to say. Ah, no, just remembered....
