《Crossing Over: Chronicles of DxD》First Battle
Advertisement
CLANK.. CLINK.. CLINK!!
BOOOOM!!!!
????: I'LL KILL YO-
BANG.. BANG...
The battle was on inside the apartment, outside was practically deserted except for the man at the doorway. If there are any of the residents in the other apartment rooms they'd be too afraid to come out. The man at the door, why wasn't he participating? Most likely he was keeping guard but it seems also that he's the leader by the way he kept trash talking his associates inside.
At the end of the corridor, hidden aside was Sesa. He was thinking of what to do. He could leave this place and come back later but right in front of him stood a good opportunity. The man at the door entrance had a sword and a gun, two weapons, while he had none. Sesa was thinking that this is a good opportunity to arm himself.
S.Sesa: Lets go, lets go, lets go!
Sesa: Right!
Sesa crept forward, he remained on the side opposite his apartment. Like this, there should be a higher probability of not alerting the enemy. Closer and closer he moved to the target. 'Almost there, almost there', Sesa motivated himself step by step. 'Ah!' The man took a step inside the apartment then stepped out again, this time his back was faced away from the door. The man looked one side then the other.... He was startled to to see Sesa.
????: Y.. Yo.. You, ah, Freed Sellzen sir!!!??
Sesa: Ho! Am I really that famous now?
It was Sesa disguised by the Camouflage of the Mask of Deception. The mask was manifest over his face meaning he was using full power. He knew that by the off chance that the man looked at him, he'd be done for. That's why he needed a disguise. What was the best method to throw off the man who is a stray excorcist than to use one. 'Freed Sellzen should be quite infamous', thought Sesa. He walked up to the man and stood by the side of the apartment entrance. The man looked confused and some fear was shown.

Sesa: Hey, guess what? I brought a newbie along
????: Good evening sir.
The disguised Sesa pointed to an area behind the man. When the man turned to look, he saw a very young kid smiling and waving at him, 'this is ridiculous, how can someone so young be brought to a killing ground?' Unfortunately for him, everything was already set in motion. Sesa already made his move.
SWORD DRAW!!!
Sesa didn't have any weapons. He grabbed the sword that hung on the man's waist in reverse hold, simultaneously stomping on the man's left foot. "AAAARRRGGGHH', the man involuntarily bent over. Sadly, waiting for him was his own sword handle's end. Sesa launched the sword out of it's sheath and planted the handle's end onto the man's face. The target screamed again at the unexpected release of pain.
REVERSE THRUST!!!
As if everything happened in one swoop, Sesa attacked again, piercing the abdomen of the man. A 'puchi' sound was made but was covered due to another battle inside the apartment. Sesa turned to face the man and made for the gun under his arm. The man was still alive but barely. He to tried for his excorcist gun, no luck, on top of that he was weak right now. He lost his weapons and was bleeding to death. "Damn it", was his last words as an armed Sesa pulled back the sword then driving it into the excorcist man's head from the bottom.
????: AAAHH!! BOSS!
Sesa already detected a new opponent arriving, he shot a few bullets with the excorcist gun to deter the enemy then shifted out of the door's entrance way.
The subordinate heard the screams of the boss so he came to check, only to see a blade jutting out of their leader's head. Next thing he knew were bullets flying, he avoided the line of fire. One second, two seconds.. silence. The excorcist came into the passage way leading to the only exit. He held the blade of his sword across him then sat the end of his gun at the blades centre, a cross was formed. Cautiously the excorcist stepped forward. All of a sudden he saw a figure dash, left to right, passing the doorway.

BANG.. BANG!
The excorcist instantly fired his gun when he saw the passing figure. Missed, "SHIT, HE'S GETTING AWAY', The excorcist sprang out of the apartment. He swung his gun out to shoot... The corridor was empty, "huh!" In the next instant the excorcist felt a gun's cylinder pressed against the back of his head.
BANG!!
Sesa was full of adrenaline at this moment, a first kill then a second. He heart was racing causing him to feel excited. He never felt this exhilarated before, maybe when he went on a rollercoaster, but now he was in controll
S.Sesa: (I NEVER FELT SO POWERFUL BEFORE, HAHAHA!! ONLY ONE MORE, ONLY ONE MORE LEFT
Sesa: Hehe... only one more left. Lucky we watched gun fire vidz.
With the Mask of Deception manifest over his face and weapons in his hands, Sesa was looking sinister. Too sinister, the mask gave him the appearance of a serial killer. Secretly he maneuvered into the apartment, heading for the main battle. Which devil was here to attract excorcists?
????: What you gonna do hun? Only death is left for you.
????: ...I ...still li... out live... you.
When Sesa came over, he saw two people in the room, no, three if you count the dying old man on the couch. Of the two people, one was an excorcist, he sat on the coffee table and pointed his gun at the other person. The other person was the devil they came to hunt. Sesa recognized this devil, she had white hair longer than shoulder length and blue-green eyes. Dressed in Kuoh Academy's uniform, she is Momo Hanakai, Sona Sitri's bishop.
From what Sesa could see, the battle was tragic for Momo. She was wounded all over, merely those were more light. As for the deeper wounds, even though it were only few, it didn't look very nice. Momo bled from an arm and her flesh was torn from a leg. Worst still was that the left side of her face was burned. That skin seemed to be melting still, What caused this? Holy water?
Momo was exhausted, not to mention that her remaining eye struggled stay open. She held her hand out maintaining a spell to protect herself. 'Ah, yes', Sesa remembered that barrier spells was what she excelled in. Sesa ghosted into the room, with a shift of his arm, he let a bullet leave the excorcist gun. Nothing more was left to say, the remaining excorcist died not knowing how.
Sesa: Hey... there are no more enemies.
Momo: ...who ...you?
S.Sesa: (Yeah, Who are we? What we gonna tell her?)
Sesa: (Argh! I didn't think of that.)
S.Sesa: (She's a devil. We have to show her you're a devil too.)
Though no one could see the Mask of Deception due to Camouflage effect, the six orbs on the mask shone in three different colors. Sesa activated the Camouflage ability of the gear. In front of Momo Hanakai he materialized nonexistent devil wings and tail.
Sesa: I am associated with one of the Satans.

Delve
Summary – Level 1: Delve is an isekai litrpg that follows an average guy who just happened to wake up in a forest one day. He wasn’t summoned to defeat the demon lord or to save the world or anything like that, at least as far as he can tell. The only creature there to greet him was a regular old squirrel. Soon enough, he meets other people, only to discover that he can’t speak the language, and that not everybody immediately trusts random pajama-wearing strangers they met in the middle of the wilderness. Things generally go downhill from there, at least until the blue boxes start appearing. Delve is a story about finding your way in a new, strange, and dangerous world. It’s about avoiding death, figuring out what the heck is going on, and trying to make some friends along the way. It’s not about getting home, so much as finding a new one. Did I mention that there will be math? Summary – Level 2: Okay, but what are you in for, really? Well, this story is supposed to be realistic, or at least, as realistic as a fantasy litrpg can be. The main character doesn’t instantly become an all-powerful god and murder-hobo his way across the universe. Delve is, at its heart, a progression fantasy, but that progression is meant to feel earned. The numbers in this story actually mean something. Everything is calculated, and if you find a rounding error, I expect you to tell me about it. That said, if math isn’t your cup of tea, there is plenty more that the story has to offer. Characters are meant to feel real, and progression isn’t only about personal power; it’s also about allies, connections, and above all, knowledge. Figuring out how the system works is a significant theme. ... What, you want more details? Okay, fine, but this is going to get a bit spoiler-y. Are you sure? Yes! Really sure? I mean, this summary is practically half as long as the first chap– Now! Okay, okay! The main character becomes a magic user, but he takes a route that is not very popular in adventurer culture, namely that of a support. There is a full magic system with various spells, skills, and abilities, but our MC decides that aura magic is the way to go, and that the only stat worth investing in is mana regeneration. Most people at the Adventurer’s Guild think that this makes him a bit of a dumbass, but he’s playing the long game. We’ll see how that works out for him, won’t we? Because of his build, the MC levels up fast, at least compared to normal people. There are no cheats, though, and he is limited in other ways. There are some clear and pretty obvious downsides to his build. That’s what makes it fun, no? Morals? Our MC has them. Again, we’ll see how that works out for him. Realism, remember? Would you be okay with killing someone and looting their body? I sure hope not. POV? The focus is on the main character, but there will be occasional varying perspectives from people around him, or involved in the events related to the main plot. It isn’t going to jump all over the place. Tech is standard medieval stasis. No smartphones, but the MC does have a technical background. Computers and their programming might be involved. There might even be a bit of uplifting down the road, who knows? Anyway, it isn’t the focus. He isn’t going to invent the gun in chapter 1 and change the face of warfare. Romance is not a major focus. Friendships are more the name of the game, though there will be some characters in romantic relationships. There is exploration, though not as much of the geographical nature as you might expect. It is more about exploration of the system and the culture. The pace is slow and detailed, sometimes verging on slice-of-life. The action is meant to be realistic and grounded in the numbers, and it is intended to have meaning beyond simply punching things until they stop moving. The general tone of the story is grey, and some parts can get quite dark. People die. Sometimes, people with names, but not anywhere near GoT level. There is plenty of light, too, though, to balance the darkness. The world is dangerous, but overcoming that danger is why we’re all here, isn’t it? Anyway, if you’ve made it this far through the summary, you clearly like words. I hope you enjoy the story! Cover by Miha Brumec Summary Updated: 2020-06-14

Humanity's End
Given a year to prepare by the mysterious ‘system’ for contact with the wider galaxy, humanity must work to ensure the Earth’s defense is ready to meet any challenge. Sadly, most of the world seems dedicated to tearing itself apart as the year-end deadline gets closer. The west is in barely contained Chaos, while the east descends into internal conflict and war. The Pillar Forts, one of the few successful projects of the United Nations headed by the United States, stand ready to defend humanity against any invasion that may come through the strange Connection Pillars that appeared on each continent. Massive steel and stone walls that surround the Connection Pillars. They are filled with deadly men and women trained in all manner of warfare, each trained in the newly acquired System with skills and magical abilities that they put to deadly purpose. Beside these brave warriors, tanks, helicopters, artillery and more stand ready to defend humanity at each of these powerful installations. But, can they overcome the disparity in levels and experience between themselves and the forces that threaten them and the rest of humanity? Main Characters Jessica Brown- A young African American girl. Her 18th birthday in Detroit was the same day the systems message appeared. She discovered she was Level 7, much higher than most of the rest of the world. Why she is blessed, or cursed, with the power she doesn’t know. But what she does know is that she rather likes the feeling that comes with manipulating magic. The week after her birthday, government workers started testing every person in the US in a massive census effort of skills and abilities. Jessica Brown found herself conscripted into the US Magical Corp, a new branch of the US Military, and shipped off to a Pillar Fort. Somewhere hot and muggy in her ancestors’ home of Africa. As she grows stronger, she finds she has some connection to the pillars. While everyone else sees beauty or danger when they look at the pillars, after connection is made all Jessica can see is a Tree. A tree the size of the entire universe. Isaka Smith - is a third generation American and farmer who just wants to be left alone. But she is dragged into the situation by events beyond her control. When people in her small town had to deal with rioters and looters after the system announcement, she rallied them to defend themselves, earning her a trait that the government found extraordinarily useful. After a visit to a local reservation, she finds herself conscripted to lead one of the many small support towns erected around the great pillar forts. Not near her old home, but in far-flung Africa. John McIntire, the “Fighting Bull” -The commander of the African Fort, but because of circumstances beyond his ability to contend with shortly after taking command after being re-activated from retirement, he finds communication with his chain of command increasingly difficult. The US government, hell, even the United Nations, seems to have fallen into complete and utter chaos. The African Union is embroiled in a bitter civil war just outside his door, and supposedly, most of the world governments are in similar situations. Meanwhile, John must do his best to be ready to facilitate diplomacy, or to match the hostile argument of whatever force might come through the pillar of light when the year timer finishes counting down. Can our heros defend Earth from outside threats, while it tares itself apart? Or will they need to rebuild from the ground up? DEDICATION: This story is dedicated to my father who passed away recently. Jim Holloway, you’ll be missed you old silverback gorilla. Love you dad. Always have, always will.
