《Highschool DxD: King of the Storm》Chapter 2: The Secret side of Jared
Advertisement
After returning home in a flash of Red lightning, Jared and Isabella both head inside their home that Jared built for the pair of them to honour someone that went a lot to them
Isabella breathed in the fresh air, as she went inside their home taking her coat of handing it up on the wall before going to bed after hugging Jared goodnight.
Jared on the other hand, took his rare moment of peace to his study along with a bottle of whiskey to accompany him
In the morning The alarm rang waking Isabella from her sleep
And with messy hair, she went downstairs for breakfast making her favourite...Scrambled egg on toast
As she was making it she heard Jared's heavy footsteps making their way downstairs, Jared but smooth black pants on revealing much of his scarred body after years of fighting
"Morning" Isabella said taking a bit of her breakfast
"Morning" Jared replied opening the fridge to grab a bottle of Orange juice
"How's was your sleep?" Isabella asked
"Could be better?" Jared said grabbing an apple
Jared finishes his apple, walking to the main room putting his feet up and putting an old movie from the 1930s...Frankenstein...one of his favourites
About an hour into the movie, Isabella turns to face Jared to ask a question
"Hey, Jared?" Asked Isabella
"Yeah" replied Jared
"Have you ever thought of what your gonna do when you get revenge from the Gremorys?" Isabella asked curiously on what Jared answer will be
Jared paused to think of an answer, he never really thought about what to do after he claimed vengeance it was unknown to him
"Umm well Find a nice quiet place to live most likely and live the rest of my immortal life in peace" Jared answered looking at Isabella before taking a sip of his orange juice

"Was that the answer you were looking for?" Asked Jared
"Umm yeah close enough" replied Isabella
"Also I managed to get you in that new school," Jared said
"Really when do I start?" Asked Isabella
"Now your 5 minutes late" replied Jared
Upon realising this she jumped and ran upstairs to get ready and just only a few minutes
Isabella saw a box in her walk-in-wardrobe and saw a box with the note on the top on the box saying "your new Uniform"
She put the note aside and opened the box to reveal her new uniform
Isabella smiled at the uniform it's been a while since she was excited to be going to a school again
Putting it on she looked at herself in the mirror admiring the fit and going downstairs to see Jared in his Armor
"Jared, why are you in your Armor?" Isabella asked wondering the reason for Jared to wear his Armor so early in the morning
Jared had prepared his mask to wear to conceal his identity or enemies
"I have some things I need to attend to, and I'm sorry I'm not able to come to The academy with you," Jared Said before putting his mask on
"It's ok don't worry about just be safe okay," Isabella said kissing Jared on the Forehead
"Thanks, Well I best be going," said Jared attaching putting the mask on his face
Jared walks away and is about to leave but not before Turing back to give Isabella a little wave as Red lightning swells around him
And in a red flash, Jared disappears off to do whatever business he had to do and just after he left Isabella left for her first day at Kuoh academy
Jared often went off alone when he wasn't with his sister, and by not having to worry about his sister, he didn't have to hold back how violent he could get when on his own

"I can't wait to start my first day," said Isabella hurrying inside before seeing a not on the table from Jared
"Since it's your first day you can use My Lamborghini Veneno, be careful when driving have fun love Jared"
Isabella picked up the keys after putting her coat on and heads to the Garage to drive Jared's car
Isabella started the engine and the garage doors opened and left for her first day
while out looking for a fight Jared, wanders around the forest in the underworld and comes across a devil military patrol of 6
So he sneaks up behind one of them plunging his sword through the chest of one of the devil patrol
"You Bastard!!!" On the 5 remaining devils soured in anger
Jared sword was drenched in blood as its blade glowed a dim Red by being drenched in blood
Jared then slowly moves towards the group of 5 scraping his sword along the ground his eye sparking Red lightning
(Imagine it's red)
"Be ready men this one is dangerous?" the devil captain said as the men rallied behind him
Jared just looked at the man and threw a knife into the man's throat spilling blood everywhere even over his men
And dashing to another grabbing him by the head and slowly crushing him as his comrades begged him to stop
He looked at them and smile before dashing to another and sadistic smiling
"Remember I do this for that poor girl you killed and Corrupt devils like you don't deserve to live," said Jared looking at a Dead female devil that was Raped then killed
After killing them Jared walks over to the young girl's corpse and covers her body with a big piece of fabric and places a hand on her shoulder
"I'm sorry this happened to you, find peace in death and walk free forever," said Jared before leaving
Meanwhile in a mansion that belongs to a specific devil house
A red-haired devil sits down for some tea before going to bed
"This cake is splendid as always, myrtille," the Red-haired woman said smiling
"Thank you for the compliment lady Ophelia," myrtille said bow her Black hair slightly while folding a new pile of clothes
"Oh by the way My lady, have you heard of all those Gruesome murders," said myrtille
"Yeah I have, it's quite a peculiar thought what motivates a person to kill someone so gruesomely," said Ophelia taking a sip of her tea
"Some people say it was a very dangerous beast capable of killing the entire camp of bandits Lady Ophelia," myrtille said making Ophelia's bed
"Or maybe...ouch!" Ophelia yelped in pain as she burnt her hand
myrtille quickly rushed over to help her and used some ice magic to cool her small burn by summoning a small ice block cooling her now healed burn
"Thanks, myrtille, I'm glad to have you as a friend my I am tired guess I'll be going to bed now," said Ophelia as she climbed into bed wishing good night to Her friend as she turned the lights off
