Gilgamesh in DxD

The eyes of the Leader of the Fallen Angels turned serious, "Are you really going to fight Sirzechs?" asked Azazel gaining the attention of all.

Azazel still didn't know what Sirzechs was up to, let alone Zekram Bael, but he knew it wasn't something good actually.

Azazel knew about Gilgamesh's power and that he would probably win, but the battle would not be easy for Gilgamesh, especially if he did not use his Sacred Gear.

There was a reason Sirzechs had been considered the Lord of All Demons for 200 years without anyone questioning, he was someone who reached the Top 10 and in his "True Form" was considered a monster even by God-class beings.

"Sirzechs challenged me Azazel, and this I can't let go" said Gilgamesh receiving a serious look from Azazel, "But don't worry it won't be a fight to the death"

Gilgamesh knew that a fight against Sirzechs would be complicated, even more so because of his mastery with the [Power of Destruction].

Gilgamesh had experience in dealing with this kind of magic from his training with Sebas, but that was the problem, Gilgamesh didn't know how powerful Sirzechs' mastery of this power was.

The King of Heroes knew that Sebas was stronger than Sirzechs, but only if he used his "True Form" and this was something Gilgamesh never saw because Sebas didn't like to use it.

So Gilgamesh didn't know how to rank Sirzechs power with his lineage, but Gilgamesh knew it would be complicated.

There are only two ways to nullify the [Power of Destruction], the first was to dodge the attack and the second was to counter attack equally.

Gilgamesh himself had the ability to use [Magic of Destruction], however it would not be very useful against Sirzechs due to him having a much greater mastery and experience than Gilgamesh in using this type of power.

"I see" said Azazel sighing.

"Then we will retire" said Gilgamesh as he left being followed by everyone as Rias and his Nobility along with Azazel waved.

"What a complicated guy" thought Azazel sighing.

...

...

The next day everyone was gathered in the huge garden of the Gremory house.

Rias and his Nobility were wearing sportswear while Gilgamesh's group was wearing the same old clothes.

Everyone was sitting around a huge table that had been placed in the garden while they discussed the plans for the training.

It was actually the Nobility of Rias, for Gilgamesh had his eyes closed as he thought and his companions were enjoying the food that had been distributed around the table.

Azazel, who had some documents in his hand, began to speak.

"Let's start with the Nobility of Rias. Let me explain that first. What I'm going to go through now is training based on what we need at the moment. Some will get immediate results, but you will also have those who will have a long road ahead of them. However, you are all young people in development. Even if you get the direction wrong, you will evolve. So now, the first one will be you, Rias."

"At first you were always a demon with high power in everything, including talent, physical ability, and magical power. Even if you live the way you already do, these attributes will increase and you will possibly become a demon of the highest level when you become an adult. However, your desire is to become stronger than you could possibly become, isn't that right?"

Rias eagerly agreed with his head to Azazel's question.

"Then follow exactly what is written on this sheet, every day, until the day of departure."

After looking at the piece of paper Azazel gave her, Rias tilted her head in questioning.

"... But, this training doesn't seem to have anything major. Does it?"

"Correct. This is a basic training method. That's enough for you. You have already achieved what you need. That's why your power can only be increased by basic training. The problem is the quality of a [King]. Over time, [Kings] tend to use their brains more than their strength. You know that even if they are not good with magic, demons can reach the top if they have a good mentality and intelligence, right? Learn everything you can about the Rating Games by the deadline. Keep in your memory everything, from the videos, to the written files. What a [King] needs is knowledge, quick decisions and common sense, in any situation. It is your job to make sure that your group of demonic minions can show their powers at maximum capacity. However, remember this, until the moment of the match, you won't be able to know what will happen. Same as on a battlefield."

Rias nodded at Azazel's words.

"The next one is Akeno."

"... Yes."

Despite being called by Azazel, Akeno was grumpy.

"You must accept the blood that runs in your veins" said Azazel seriously.

"-!"

Akeno ended up frowning at Azazel's speech while the same did not care.

"I saw the videos that were recorded in the match against the Phenex family. What was that? With your original form, you would have been able to easily defeat the enemy [Queen]. Why didn't you use your fallen angel powers? You limited yourself to using only thunder. If you don't add the power of light to the thunder, making it lightning, you won't be able to show your true power."

"... I can manage even without relying on that kind of power."

However, Akeno-san's situation is extremely complicated.

"Don't deny yourself. What will you do if you can't accept yourself? In the end, the only thing you can depend on is yourself, isn't it? Denying yourself makes you weak. Accept everything about yourself, even the difficult and painful things. Your current state is your weakness. Get over it for the day of departure. If not, you will be a mere hindrance in the following matches. The [Priestess of Thunder] must become the [Priestess of Lightning]."

"..."

Akeno did not respond to what Azazel spoke.

However, Akeno also understood that she has no choice but to do that.

"Next is Kiba."

"Yes."

"First you must be able to maintain your Balance Breaker for a full day. If you get used to it, you will be able to maintain it for a full day even in battle. Your goal is to continue this and be able to maintain this form for the duration of one day. After that you will be strong enough to do basic training like Rias. Later on I will teach you myself how to handle a sword provided by Sacred Gear.

"For sword training...will you train again with your teacher?"

"Yes, I intend to start from scratch again."

"Gasper is next."

"S-Siiiiiiiim!" said Gasper nervously.

"Don't be so fearful. Your biggest obstacle is that fear. You need to train your body and mind from scratch. At first, your bloodline and Sacred Gear are enough. Increasing your ability as a [Bishop] and also your magic power will also be a good thing. Since I have created an exclusive [plan to avoid being a hikikomori], you first need to fix this in any way you can. Even if going out in public is impossible, you have to make sure you don't flag it."

"Yeeeees! I'll try to get up the courage and get cracking!"+

"Next is Koneko."

"... Yes."

"There's nothing to complain about you, since you possess the offensive and defensive power of a well-trained [Rook]. Your physical power is not a problem. However, in Rias' group, there are those who are better at attacking than a [Rook] like you."

"... I know that."
