Issei just sighed as he heard the whispers from multiple other students follow the two of them as he and Souna headed to her office. Although he had to admit, if Souna heard or was affected by these rumors then she had a great poker face, in fact he was grateful that she didn't want to play cards instead.
[Partner, do you even know how to play chess?]
'I know how the pieces move, that's all you need to know right?' questioned Issei as the two them sat around Souna's table.
The rest of the student council just sat and watched with knowing smiles on their faces as Souna brought out an expensive looking ivory and ebony chess set. Souna quickly set up both ends of the chessboard before looking up at him with a superior smile.
"So Hyoudou-san which colour would you like to play?" she asked, smugly.
"Err…what's the difference?" he replied in response.
"You don't even know that? Oh boy this is going to be a quick game," laughed the only other male in the room.
"Saji you didn't even know what each piece was at the start," retorted Souna before turning back to Issei. "White always moves first while black always goes last."
'I have no idea what I'm doing so I guess I'll go black, see if I can copy her moves,' he thought and selected the black side.
[Partner, you are going to be destroyed.]
'Wow thanks for the encouragement,' he grumbled in his head while trying to ignore the voice of his partner laughing at him. Ddraig was right though, he lasted a grand total of three moves before being checkmated.
"If you'd like Hyoudou-san we can make it the best of three?" offered the smug president.
'It doesn't matter if its best of a hundred, even I can tell the result will be the same,' thought the teen with a sigh as he prepared to leave.
[Hold on partner, agree to her deal. No one mocks my wielder and gets away with it like this.]
'But there's no way I can beat her,' he thought back at Ddraig.
[Not by yourself but with help you can. Just do what I say and we'll knock those smug looks off their faces.]
Nodding Issei grinned at Souna, "alright then best of three it is," he announced, much to the shock of everyone in the room.
Frowning at his stubbornness Souna just shook her head and reset the board, following Ddraig instructions Issei again chose black. However, the end result was completely different this time around, as Souna completely underestimated him, based off the previous game. Issei didn't know if Ddraig was real or not but the moment he saw the shocked expression on everyone in the room, the teen decided he didn't care, Ddraig was now officially his best friend.
"So all tied up huh Kaichou?" he grinned, smugly while Souna just fixed her glasses and glared at him.
"It would appear so Hyoudou-san," she replied and reset the board while the rest of the Student Council silently watched on.
[Oi partner, how badly do you want me to beat her?]
'Ddraig, crush her,' he thought, giddily.
[You sure about that partner? She seems pretty prideful; I doubt she'll take the loss well.]
'Ddraig, there are some moments where you have to throw caution to the wind to enjoy life. I'll gladly take whatever punishment the universe can throw at me to see the Ice Queen, Souna Shitori taken down a notch,' replied Issei.
[All right partner, but don't say I didn't warn you.]
Everyone crowded around the table as Issei and Souna began their final round, expecting to see the human be destroyed easily now that Kaichou was serious. They couldn't have been more further from the truth. Souna was good but Ddraig was better and outmaneuvered the devil with every move until sure enough Souna found herself in checkmate.
The entire Student Council was silent as they just stared at the board in shock; meanwhile Issei just hummed a merry tune as he got up from the table and headed for the door. "I'll see you later Kaichou, remember our deal," said Issei as he struggled to keep a smirk from growing across his face and closed the door behind him.
Once the door was shut, Issei burst into laughter as he headed to his classroom, drawing confused looks from his fellow students who gave him a wide berth. 'Ddraig that was perfect did you see their faces!' he thought, happily.
[Indeed it was quite amusing but I'm more impressed with you partner.]
A frown crossed his face as he rounded another corner, 'me? What do you mean Ddraig you did all the work.' There was the sound of rumbling laughter echoing throughout his head before Issei heard the dragon's reply.
[Not many people would antagonize and step on a Devil's pride like that, and especially not in front of her peerage, let alone an heiress of one of the 72 Pillar Clans. You're definitely going to be an interesting host that's for sure.]
Issei just froze mid step as the blood drained away from his face, making other students once again give him strange looks. 'Umm…Ddraig are you saying that everyone in that room was a Devil?' he asked.
[That's right everyone there was a Devil most likely related the Sitri clan judging from the heiress' demonic energy.]
'Sitri clan?' questioned Issei as he began breathing again and continued onwards to his classroom as Ddraig explained.
[The Sitri clan is one of the 72 Pillars that rule the Underworld; in fact, last I checked a member of their family recently became one of their leaders, same with the Gremory girl.]
Issei just groaned as he began banging his head against the wall, ignoring the looks other students were sending him in the process. Eventually he stopped and just sighed as he made his way back to class, while Ddraig tried to keep the amusement out of his voice.
[…You didn't know did you?]
'Shut up,' he hissed at the dragon in his head, only to flinch as Ddraig once again burst out into loud laughter.
[Partner, you really do have the most incredible luck. Still look on the bright side, maybe they won't be mad about it?]
'You think?' replied Issei hopefully.
[No.]
'You know I think I liked you better when you were supposed to be a figment of my imagination,' grumbled the teen as he opened the door to the classroom and took his seat.
The Student Council flinched as their Devil hearing picked up Issei's laughter travelling down the narrow hallways outside. None of her peerage dared to say a word as they saw their leader just stare at the chessboard in silence, Sona then stood up without a word and headed to the room's private bathroom before shutting the door.
The rest of the Devils just looked at each other in confusion before they all heard a loud cry of rage and frustration echo from within the bathroom. Suddenly the door to the bathroom slammed open and Sona walked out, looking completely normal with her calm poker face that was completely contrasting the hostility she was emitting.
She then calmly began packing up the chess set while the rest of her peerage just glanced at each other again, each wondering who would go first. Eventually Saji sighed as he approached, "umm…Kaichou are you okay?"
"I'm fine Saji," replied Sona coldly.
"You sure? I could go and bring Hyoudou-san back if you like," offered Saji, only to back away as the chess piece in Sona's hand snapped at the mention of the name.
"That will not be necessary Saji, now I believe you all have work to do don't you?" she ordered before turning to the rest of her peerage.
All of them except Tsubaki nodded and quickly left the room while her Queen grabbed a report from her desk and approached, "we recently got a message from Rias."
