Issei fought his growing frustration watching the two friend and fellow connoisseur fighting over a peephole in the side of the Kendo club's changing room. It is also a wonder how the collective perverse giggling of these two didn't notified the girls on the other side of the wall. Watching these two serves only to remind how he is treated. Despite being voted as the leader of their group, these two often gets the lion's share of the view whenever they find a nice peeping spot.
Seems a little unfair for a leader to not get any of the sweet view. Given that he was the one who did most of the legwork! First-year, second -year and third year students; all the males from all three age-groups of students he had spoken and buttered up to just to find something, anything. A rumour of a small hole, a strategic location that allows one a vantage point; anything really! Just for an extra mile, he had bribed the people he'd spoken to never speak of it to anyone else. All for one peephole which was made by some of the students of 3-A.
"Oh man, Murayama is wearing a purple lingerie?" Motohama whispered, voice dripping with horniness.
"Praise be to the breast, Katase's twin mountains are something to behold." Matsuda drooled, licking up the saliva. As Issei continued stared at their shaking rear, the young Hyoudou wondered whether he should follow through his plan. These two may have not given proper dues to him as followers should to their leader considering how he's the one who contributed the most to their little group. Then again, Motohama and Matsuda are the only friends he has in the entire Academy.
"Sorry, but can I see them titties now?" Issei asked. "The last four peeping spots were The question was probably ignored, given how the two were struggling over for one peephole.
"Excuse me, fellas, but have you guys forgotten something?" Issei asked again, letting some frustrations flowed into his tone. One of them, Matsuda raised up a hand and waved him, saying "Sure, sure, whatever," in an annoyed tone.
Issei didn't retaliate, only taking a deep breath and walked away, taking a turn to the right. He managed to caught a blur before having it slammed into him, the force behind the collision were enough to knock the wind out of the young teen and it knocked him several steps back and fell flat on his ass. Issei winced as he rubbed the bruised chest and looked up, surprised to catch a bespectacled woman who is flat on her own ass. Violet eyes in mild pain turned to annoyance when meeting his own perplexed brown ones.
"Shitori?" He asked, somewhat dumbfounded by the Student Council's President being here. He strongly recall how he hadn't tipped them off about their little action. The bespectacled woman huffed. If looks could kill, hers would've done him in an instant.
"Hyoudou," She spoke tersely, unamused at the sight of him. "Need I remind you that should you get caught conducting anymore voyeurism on the school's premise, you will be expelled."
Shrinking slightly underneath her sharp glare, Issei stood straighter when he realized he didn't did anything wrong. Technically, he really didn't. All he did was informed two of his friends about the peephole. Well, not that she knows about it.
"It's not what you think." He responded.
"Really?" Head tilted and eyebrows raised, skepticism palpable. "Then what are you exactly doing?"
Moments before he can answer, yelp of surprises erupted from the back. Ignoring the young woman, he rushed toward his friends, going back to where he was earlier. Issei was surprised to see Matsuda and Motohama restrained by two security guards, squirming and shouting underneath them. Dark blue uniform with the school's uniform logo proudly emblazoned on their right breastpocket, showcasing their affiliation. From what he remember of last week's deliberative assembly, the two of them were apart of the school's recent addition to the security as a way to apprehend any miscreants.
"Wow," Issei mumbled, frightened by the sight. He had heard how a group of third years got apprehended by the security guards for secretly smuggling in drugs and other illegal contrabands. He'd never watched it but he heard those guys got expelled. Out of the corner of his eyes, Issei caught a pleased look resting on the Student Councils' leaders' face.
"I would have you arrested along with those two have you peeked along them as well."
"Whoa, whoa. What makes you think I didn't?" He asked, sparing a quick glance at the two. Sure enough, both his two friends were staring at him. If these two gets expelled, at least he'll try to clear up any possible theories conjured inside their head. The small, tiny possibility they'd possibly conjured up believing
In this entire school, only these two are his friends and he doesn't want to lose either one of them. Having no friends is worse than getting ostracized in the entire school for being the single pervert. Make no mistake, he takes pride in what he does and has no shame about it but the experience is more tolerable knowing he has friends to hang out with. If he can't save their...chances in education, at least he'll save their friendship.
"Hey, we didn't do anything. He told us about this place!" Matsuda yelled, nudging with his head since both arms were restrained. However before he can say anything else, the young peeping tom contorted in pain as the security guard twist the arm slightly, enough to earn a pained gasp.
"Y-yeah." Issei stared evenly into the woman's eyes, hoping his voice didn't cracked. A small part of Issei hoped she would take it, believe the little lie. The skeptical look were aimed at him but Issei swore he saw something else flashed in her eyes although it quickly vanished and she return to the usual stoic Issei had often seen.
Much to his surprise, she released a sigh. "It's rather impressive given how you and your friends are so dedicated to something this wasteful. If the amount of work you put into peeping went to study, maybe you three can go somewhere."
"...Okay." Issei muttered, baffled by the reaction.
"Sadly, enough is enough. Since you three kept on pulling this sort of nonsense. The three of you can stay at home for an entire week. Think of the suspension as a Golden Week exclusive for you three."
"What?!" All three exclaimed in shock, taken aback by what they had heard. She can't do this sort of thing, she's only a student ! No, no, it's ridiculous.
"You can't do that. That's something that only the dean can do." Motohama yelled in anger, glaring at the bespectacled woman. Sona's stoic face doesn't turn to one of anger but Issei saw the burning emotion very well in those eyes. To see her seethe with anger is quite the sight. And not in a good way.
"Well naturally. I am only the messenger. The dean has already told me that your actions will not be met with leniency any longer since we deem enough is enough" Sona stated coldly. "Enjoy your days off."

"Aww nuts, what do I tell them?"
Issei looked down on the document in hand as he walked home. The path he took was the usual one, a walk that normally last for half an hour. If he picked up the pace, he would be able to get home at half of that time.But right now he doesn't feel like wanting to go home considering what he just received. Ignoring the sweats building up on his brows, he looked at the paper in hand.
A letter notifying his parents about the suspension. For an entire week. Maybe he can just throw this paper into the dustbin? No, there's a possibility they might have called his parents earlier. And if mother ever found out, she'll wring his neck and same goes to his sisters.
"Decisions, decisions." Issei muttered under his breath, turning around the corner. Only to feel something soft slammed into his chest and sent him falling flat on his ass. He yelped in pain and glared at the person only for the anger to melt away when he saw a very hot woman with a figure eight; ample bosom and a nice waist. Black hair flowing in the background with the sun hovering above her, giving her the looks of a goddess.
"Oh, I am so sorry for bumping into you." The brunette smiled, offering a hand. Issei would've gladly taken her hand although it struck him. A woman, an actual honest-to-goodness woman is actually communicating with him. Worse, she is speaking to him. Even worse, she is offering to pull him up. With her barehands. But that doesn't mean he won't take it.
"Thank you." He grinned, secretly in awe at how smooth this stranger's hand felt. She tittered, covering her mouth with the back of her hand like an old fashion maiden. Never he'd imagine he would hear such melody and not from a girl who's mocking him! A godsend, truly she is.
"Your welcome." She spoke. "Anyway, if you excuse me. I need to go look for someone."
"Really?" He asked. "Well, do you want any help? You doesn't look like a local."
"Oh," Eyebrows perked up in genuine surprise but lasted temporarily as she smiled. "Thank you so much. I've been having a hard time because it's just so hard to find this person. Do you know where Issei Hyoudou lives?"
"Um, why do you ask?" Issei wondered what is the intention behind her action. She's actively looking for him?
"Oh, you see...I," If Issei's eyebrows have rockets, it would've blasted off into the sky. But since this is reality, his eyebrows wouldn't do that. She trailed off in her speech and begun giggling lightly, face red as tomato from going to imaginary land. This girl is acting like some lovestruck maiden!
'I-impossible. I've heard of the legend but to see it for myself. A-am I getting a confession?' Issei couldn't remember when he had a girl coming to confess to him. Since no one ever did. He did got one out of Irina but he was a guy and it was about how his parents wants to leave due to work. Not romance.
"Uh, excuse me." His words snapped her out of whatever perverse and/or vanilla fantasy she's having. Screw it, a woman is actually trying to date him and he's not letting her go. "I'm actually the guy you're looking for."
"Really!?" He winced at the loud shriek, rubbing his ear out of annoyance. She has one heck of a set of lungs he'll give her that much.
"Oh, sorry. I just want to know if you are okay with going on a date with me. I liked you for awhile now and...I guess it's love at first sight? Oh my goodness, I feel so embarrassed right now. Is that okay?"
"Uh," Issei scratched the back of his neck nervously, feeling slightly guilty about how he's taking advantage of her ignorance of his nature. Especially given how she's releasing a vibe similar to a dog; cute and innocent.
"I don't think you should go out with me. I have a-" He stopped briefly when he noticed she suddenly pressed her index finger on his forehead. A look of concentration on this unknown woman's face as she spoke in some foreign language.
"Wait, what are yo-" Words died out in Issei's tongue as his eyes glazed over. The young woman huffed in annoyance and rubbed her hand against the boy's cloak. She'll need to burn this dress and take a nice, long and warm bath to get rid of this disgusting cretin's sensation later. By His might, she just touched this dirty mongrel and she needs to get vaccinated after this!
"Ugh, your literal humanity sickens me." She blew raspberry on it, causing specks of saliva hit him and yet the boy didn't respond. A smirk cross her face as she did so. Oh it would be so easy if she just use a hypnosis spell like this one, take him some place quiet and kill him. Just thinking how he dared to use her faux innocence just pisses her off and it wanted to help her is enough to make her rethink this plan. But the young woman had promised herself to do it the fun way and no way in Heaven or Hell is she backing out of a self-imposed challenge. If a magic spell is required, so be it. Anything for Lord Azazel.
"When I clap my hands twice, you will be thrilled to date me." She spoke. Right, this is all for the Grigori. Her Lord Azazel. She's just doing it her way.
'Deep breathes, girl. You can do this. Just think of getting dicked on by Azazel.'
"When you clap your hands twice, I will be thrilled to date you." Repeated the thing in a monotonous tone. Grinning, Raynare did like she had promised and the color in the monkey's eyes. He'd looked around and noted how he has saliva on his face.
"What was I doing again? And why I have saliva on me?"
"Oh, it's nothing. I think it might be raining so. If you don't want to go..."
"O-of course not. I would love to." He spoke. "Just...what was your name again? I don't think you ever told me."
"Yuuma." She smiled. "Yuuma Amano."

"Let me get this straight; an actual woman approached you and asked you out on a date?"
"Is that so hard to believe?' Issei asked, fixing any creases on his t-shirt.
"Coming from my son who is a well-known degenerate around town, yes. I mean, you and your friends are suspended for an entire week from school. I'm a little surprised given how much you have done. Sounds fishy to me. Are you certain you weren't doing drugs?"
Issei rolled his eyes at his dad's question as he checked himself out in the mirror. A red and white letterman jacket courtesy of his dad worn over his favorite red shirt and black jeans. The perfect choice of clothing to look strong. For the date, he had planned to take her to the local arcade and the local theatre and the final touch would be the local park.
"She said she was from out of town," He shrugged helplessly. "Maybe she didn't caught wind of it."
"You also mentioned how you had apparently zoned out when she confessed to you" His father replied all the while performing air quotes. "Doesn't that seem a little fishy to you at all?"
Issei grunted, unable to find a retort. It did struck Issei odd given how the woman claim to have a crush on him. What makes it even more odd is how she was aware of his reputation and she doesn't seem to mind it. If she truly did, then she wouldn't even be interested. But whatever, no way he's gonna throw the gift in the horse's mouth.
"Aah, don't worry about the little problems dad," Issei answered, turning around to face him. The bespectacled man only frown but didn't replied. "Besides, you already got too many wrinkles for someone your age."
"How rude," Despite the choice of word, Issei's dad didn't seem offended as he only grinned. "Aah, just don't botched this up. Just... have fun."
"Sure," Issei smiled only to realize his mother isn't here to see him off. "Where's mom?"
His father shrugged. "She said she went to the temples to thank the gods for letting her degenerate of a son getting a life partner. Your sisters almost had heart attack when I told them about you getting a girlfriend."
Issei could only frown but shook his head. Does his own parents think so lowly of him? Thinking how his own mother had almost laughed at the thought does remind how highly his parents actually think of. Or at least his mothers personal thoughts. Take note, need to change after this.
"...I see," He replied tersely, unable to find anything else to say. "It wounds me knowing that my family think lowly of me."
Issei's father snorted in amusement. "Quit being such a drama queen. Just go to your date already, I'll tell her you'd left already."
"Sure," Issei waved his father goodbye as he made way to the exit. After taking three steps only, Issei overheard his father yelling, "Hey."
The young teen turned just as he finished putting on his shoes, catching the older man throwing a key at him. Catching the silver key glistening under the lights, he raised his hand up to catch it. Looking it, Issei was surprised to see it was his family household key.
"We'll be visiting the country site to check up on your grandmother. You'll need it if you ever want to enter your own house."
Issei glance at the keys, feeling their weight before stuffing them into his pockets. A thumbs up and a smile directed at his father. "Thanks."

A simple mission, that was what she'd told herself. One that she'd done several times.
Raynare just had to seduce one specific perverted, yet innocent boy with an unknown sacred gear inside him, then observe and decide if his sacred gear could be a potential threat for Grigori; or most importantly, for her beloved Lord Azazel. And if he's proven to be a threat, she was supposed to eliminate him.
Unfortunately, as Raynare was an resourceful and over-fanatic fallen angel, she immediately deemed the boy a threat the moment she laid her eyes on him. Indisputably, the energy radiating off of him is one belonging to a dragon. Disguised as a human girl; Amano Yuuma, she confessed out of the blue to that human boy, and then they dated for a few days; much to her contempt and disgust.
When she suggested a date, the foolish boy happily accept without any problem. Raynare giggled so hard when she remembered how stupid that boy's expression when she said that. She just couldn't wait to wipe that stupid smile off his face and replace it with terror.
Throughout each date, that boy continued to smile uncontrollably and acted like some kind of gentleman. The unnaturally perverted child attempts was the greatest entertainment she'd had in her entire immortal life; paying for their lunch, buying her present, and most importantly, trying not to stare at her body too much.
But of course, It took just one flash of Raynare's cleavage and his resolve immediately crumbled like dust. The boy even had a nosebleed for goodness sake.
On their third and final date, Raynare had lead the young man to the local park and the sunset came. She'd personally chose the name Amano Yuuma as she'd planned for his death during sunset. A poetic touch to give the young pitiful boy's death some level of grace.
As they'd walked, that human boy still managed to entertain Raynare somewhat by groggily reaching for her hands, interlocking their fingers together. Hiding her sadistic intention under an innocent smile, she faked a blush and returned the gesture; earning a happy grin from the boy. Once this mission is a success , she'll need to wash this hand clean, preferably with bleach.
Oh, she couldn't imagine how much fun would it be to crush that grin when she reveals the truth in front of him.
"Um, Issei, would you do something for me to commemorate our first date?"
When Raynare fidgeted with a fake blush and on her face, the boy gulped hard and immediately stuttered to accept it, with an intense blush on his face. 'This mongrel must be imagining something dirty. What a disgusting perverted virgin,' Raynare amusedly pondered without letting her true thought slipped out.
"... Would you die for me?"
The cur's stupefied expression was the most loveliest expression. In confusion, he asked her to repeat her words, to which Raynare finally revealed her true, sadistic and cruel smile and started her mission.
With a flick of her finger, she activated the barrier that she'd set surrounding the park earlier. The formerly orange sky suddenly turned to brilliant colour of amethyst. In the next instance, she abandoned her disguise and took her fallen angel form. With a single beat of her jet-black wings, Raynare hovered slightly above the ground directly in front of Issei.
Issei Hyoudou's mouth open ajar in shock at the sight. Whether it's because of surprise of seeing her true form or because he'd just seen real, raw boobs for the first time in his life during that transformation, Raynare wasn't sure and cared not. However, the Fallen Angel knew for certain the boy is clearly bewildered by the spectacle.
"It's such a shame that I have to kill you right now, Issei. I truly enjoyed this date. But unfortunately, you will become a threat for us if I let you live. Don't worry, though, as I will surely keep this present as a memento of this day. Isn't it very nice of me?"
She sensually licked the bracelet given to her by Issei without any trace of guilt or regret at all, taking immense delight out of the human's fear and confusion. Issei turned pale but he'd tried to form a question. Ignoring Issei's attempt to ask what she meant, she nonchalantly held her palm out. The boy's brown eyes widened in surprise, looking down to catch the sight of a spear of pure light, a trademark weapon of Fallen Angels and her former comrades in Heaven piercing through his stomach. His hand reached to the weapon inside him as he fell over, blood pouring out of the wound. His brown eyes were losing it's colour as he bleed continuously. She had almost forgotten that humans were tremendously fragile creatures compared to the other Supernatural races. Why does Father cared for these things is an unsolvable mystery.
Another light-based spear, projected in her hands and aimed at the boy. Then, with a gaze full of fake pity, she said...
"If you really want to blame someone, just blame the God for putting that 'Sacred Gear' inside of you."
Do you wish to be rescued?
'Who?' Issei wondered, baffled by the sound. It might be the rapid loss of blood but he's hearing a voice inside his head.
Do you wish to be rescued? I can do that and even more. Only for a simple price of your loyalty and servitude. Time is trickling away, child. Choose wisely.
Issei didn't knew where is this voice coming from. It might be the loss of blood making him delirious. Maybe it was his own subconscious or something fancy or complicated that's hoping for someone to save him. His secret desire or something similar. Nor does he knew what came over him when he answered.
"Yes."
At his words, a ginormous red circle appeared beneath him. Raynare, sensing a substantial amount of energy far greater in quantity and quality than anything else, spread her wings and took off. An indignant cry escaped her when a massive arm equipped with equally large vambraces shot out. It'd grabbed the dying boy and skyrocketed into the sky. As it flew into the sky, web-like cracks spread continuously around the purple surface of her barrier. It kept going and going even when the barrier was shattered, causing the shattered pieces falling down to the ground.
"By God, i-it's massive." Standing in it's presence, Raynare is completely awestruck by not just its' size but the sheer amount of mana it is radiating. It's...It's insane. Whoever or whatever the source is far greater than the combined might of the heads of the three faction of the Biblical Pantheon.
By the time it's stopped, the damnable appendages' height rivals that of a large building. Raynare was fairly certain anyone with working eyes can see it since it was tremendously huge and equally bright. She couldn't even see the small teen in it's grasp considering how tall the arm is.
Just as fast as it came, it then sank back into the circle, leaving no trace of its presence. Raynare's sole line of thought was...
"What in God's name just happened?!" She all but yelled to herself.
(Linebreak)
"Where am I?"
That is the first question that Issei Hyoudou asked himself. He remembered going on a date with Yuuma and then visiting the local park. He felt a sharp pain as he tried to dig further into his own memory; seemingly unable to remember anything.
And then, he woke up and found himself sitting on a chair. One that is floating on air with absolutely nothing but pitch darkness around him. Nothing that his eyes could see.
"You are in my realm boy!" A loud voice boomed; it sounded neither male nor female.
The owner of said voice soon made itself present. The entity's appearance caught Issei completely off guard.
The being was a fully armoured humanoid knight, adorned in red and white plate, a flame like pattern running along their arms and torso. Affixed to their chest-plate was a glowing red stone or core of some form, adding to their knightly appearance. Their face was obscured by the winged helm they wore save for its eyes, the ghastly blue a stark contrast to the rest of his appearance.
His large vambraces and muscular arms added to the intimidating visage, with an extra pair sprouting from his back, reminding him of a video game character. The knights gauntlets, boots and remainder of his armor was orange, with purple accents running across it.
"Holy shit!" Issei exclaimed at what he was looking at. This thing must be the biggest thing he'd ever seen, even Transformers can't beat this thing in terms of size!
"Most people would have fainted at the sight of me, and those that didn't would instead grovel and plead for mercy." The gargantuan creature muttered, before letting out an exasperated sigh. "Well, first time for everything I suppose."
Issei, on his part, had a million questions going through his head to further acknowledge the titan of a being. Where was he? Was his girlfriend still alive? Why was he naked? And-
"Calm yourself, boy." The knight commanded, though Issei thought it sounded more like a threat than reassurance. The voice, while lacking any traits associated with male or female, has the volume of thunder. Loud and deafening.
Issei attempted to clamp his mouth shut only to realize that this...entity had not spoken aloud at all. Was he even capable of talking? That thing doesn't look like it has a mouth. In response, the being before him shook his head.
"I am capable of many things." The entity proclaimed, crossing its gargantuan arms across its chest. "Reading the minds of infantile creatures such as yourself is as simple as breathing is for you."
"I...I think I'm going crazy..." Issei murmured to himself, his hands clawing at his scalp. No, no, none of this can be real can it? He must sleeping in his bed right now! Yes, that's it.
"As time is of the essence, I shall keep this brief."
It was then that the knightly figure snapped its fingers, and a torrent of memories flooded back into Issei's mind. Memories of his girlfriend asking whether he would die for her. The burning sensation of having his stomach impaled by a lance of energy, and the burning pain that followed. And how his seemingly human girlfriend changed into an entirely alien form.
He fell to his knees, tears slowly beginning to drip from his eyes. She killed him because of this Sacred Gear shtick? The fuck is that supposed to be? Some kind of a toy? A weapon?
"Correct! Or rather a weapon that holds the potential to kill even Gods." The being proclaimed, jabbing Issei's chest with one of its claw like fingers. "And you happen to be in possession of one."
"Are-...are you telling me that they killed me because I have something on me?!" Issei exclaimed, his brown eyes meeting the gaze of the knights blue eyes.
"Yes." the being bluntly stated. "Or at least they would have, if not for my intervention..."
"Come again?" Issei asked, tilting his head to the side in confusion. The being growled in frustration, clearly growing tired with dealing with the boy, but alas it complied.
"You took a mortal wound to the stomach. I, however, was able to save you from certain death by taking you into my realm." The figure explained, holding its arms aloft. "If you wish to live, I will need something from you in exchange."
"And what exactly would that be?" Issei cautiously asked.
"Serve as my champion, and I shall return you to the mortal realm." The knight said before leaning forward, its blue eyes staring coldly at him. "Refuse, and you will die, and I will simply find another to do so."
"Deal!"
Silence dawned on them after Issei's loud proclamation and he ended up floating awkwardly. Given how the the giant lacks any discernible features, Issei didn't knew what the giant was feeling. A moment later, it spoke up. "Do you not wish to know what you are getting yourself into?" The entity asked in-Issei couldn't believe what he's hearing-bewilderment, head tilting to the side in confusion. Issei tried to went for a smirk and hoped he'd looked confident.
"I-if you went out of your way to save me, then that means I hold some value right?" He stated. "I mean, I don't have any skills or super power, so that would make me useless for this Champion business. But since you went through the bother of saving me, that means you're either stupid or desperate or even a combination of both."
For a moment Issei felt he might have just signed his death warrant, calling a giant who can just crush him without any actual effort stupid but after everything he went through, he doesn't have the mental strength to be shocked or afraid anymore. Issei couldn't read facial expressions but he believed the giant is impressed given the slight, just slight, widening of those boulder-sized orbs the giant has for eyes.
"True. But I must warn you, once you agreed there is no turning back."
His words left Issei stunned but he shook off the shock. Turning back? So what? He's gonna die if this entity hadn't came and saved him. If he doesn't take this entity's offer, then he'll die either way. And no way, is he gonna die because of some bitch!
"Yeah, well, I'm not exactly in a position to say anything right? If I reject your offer, I don't think you're gonna help me out if the kindness of whatever you have that functions as a heart."
"How do you know I wouldn't saved you out of kindness? I might not be omnipotent, but I have great power. Saving a life that had not went to the Underworld is easy for me." The giant enquired. Invisible forces grabbed hold of Issei and dragged him closer to the monster. this in turn causes Issei to be more self-conscious in the difference of size between the two; he's even smaller than the giants eye for crap sake!
"You know naught of me. My nature nor extent of power." It's voice was comparable to thunder, loud and deafening. Issei swore he'd detected a hint of anger.
"Exactly, I don't know you. But we can work together, maybe not as equal but something closer. And that way, we can... work something out yeah?"
The giant stared at him before laughing boisterously, amused by the little humans words. Issei on the other hand felt like he was stuck in an earthquake. The entire space around them shook and Issei feared the whole place might just feel apart if the laughter continues.
"Oh, you are truly an interesting mortal. I like you boy. I do hope you will win soon enough. Worry not as I will send my Vassal to guide you. Do try to tolerate the young child."
The red giants hands glowed with arcane energy as incantations were spoken. Words belonging to languages that Issei never heard of vibrated in his skull like a jackhammer. The glow increased as it began to raise those ginormous hands aloft. The last thing the young man saw was a pure red beam of light fired at him, filling his vision as it did so.

All across the world, the Champions similar to Issei and the various gods living in this realm had felt it. Those in the know-how knew what this symbolize and were raring to go, far too willing to get their hands soaked. Those who don't felt unease, felt whatever this may be may usurp all the power they have collected over their long life span. Whatever the case, they all knew something big is coming.
