King Of Seven Realms - Volume 5 Chapter 118 Gremory Household.
AN: First, let me clarify some things. I have not read Slash Dog, so might be a change in the personality of a character or story. Think of it as AU. But what can I say, I really wanted Suzaku in the Harem…

“Elder” Shuri looked at the middle-aged man. He was one of the Clan Elders of Himejima Clan. Like other Clan elders, he was strict about Clan rules.
Once he was informed by his subordinate about Shuri, he did not waste time to get here. Since he was well aware of the fact that their clan leader had gone to assassinate her and Akeno, but now she was here – safe and sound. It really made him worry about the clan leader.
“Don’t call me with your mouth! But since you are already here, don’t even think about leaving alive from here!” He angrily yelled before ordering his man to capture them.
“Stop it! If you dare to touch her, I will make sure none of you die peacefully.” Suzaku’s previous gentle aura was nowhere to be seen as the surrounding’s temperature increases at a rapid rate, stopping the men in their steps. An imaginary red fiery bird enveloped the inside of the room within its wings, making everyone perspire hard.
She cared about her family, and when she heard from Shuri that the clan leader had gone to assassinate her and Akeno, this feeling increased even more. Now she wanted to change the whole clan and let them leave those old and stiff rules.
“Vermillion Bird!” The elder shouted, surprised.
He grits his teeth, “Are you going against the rules of our Clan, Suzaku! She, your Aunt, has married a Fallen! According to Clan rules, she does not deserve to live and should be prosecuted!” He shouted at Suzaku but did not order his men to attack this time.
“Humph! You got some guts, old man. Trying to threaten someone who is under my protection.” A lazy voice resounds in the room, taking everyone’s attention towards the young man.
Wang Lei was lazily looking at this old man with Akeno on his lap. She woke up when the old man shouted. Scared, she hugged Wang Lei.
“Mind your tongue, Kid! Who are you in the first place?”
“Who am I do not matter. What matters is that you take your minions and get the f.u.c.k out of here. Or you can come and try to hurt them if you want to make Himejima Clan go extinct, that is.”
“You!” Before the elder could continue, Wang Lei throw something from his shadows at him.
Everyone looked down, and their faces become pale. They saw a head rolling on the ground, stopping just under the elder. It was Suou Himejima, the Clan Head’s head!
“That guy wanted to hurt them. Look what happened to himnow the choice is yours, do you want to become like him or?” Wang Lei nonchalantly tailed his word, making the elder and his men tremble with fear. They knew full well how strong was their Clan head, and if even he was not able to do something to Wang Lei, it was a pipe dream that they would be able to do anything.
“Are you going to still protect them, Suzaku? They have killed your Great-Uncle, our Clan Head!” The elder persuaded Suzaku, who was silently looked at the head of her Great-Uncle.
Since she owned Vermillion Bird. The elder thought that they still had a chance to take Wang Lei down. But their hopes shattered with the next word of Suzaku.
“Take this head and throw it outside. Since he is dead, I am the next Head of the Clan. We do not need someone in our Clan whom I do not deem worthy!” Her words were emotionless and cold to the extreme.
The elder and his men grit their teeth. Looking at them with killing intent, they all left. The elder thought he needed to inform everyone about this so they can band together to take care of Wang Lei.
“They are quite lively now, aren’t they, Kuro?” Wang Lei, while laughing slightly, spoke.
Suzaku glared at him.
“You had no need to do that! Now you have worsened the situation even more. He will come back with the whole Clan to kill you now! Do you think that you are strong, then you can easily take the whole Clan alone?!” Suzaku angrily spoke.
Though she had no personal attachment with Wang Lei, she still did not want her Aunt and her daughter’s benefactor to die.
Chuckling, Wang Lei nodded, “That is definitely what I think. They can come with as many as they want. I do not mind if they even brought the other Families from Five Great Families. Otherwise, it would be too boring.”
Seeing his carefree attitude, Suzaku grits her teeth. Even Shuri was worried now. Although she knew Wang Lei was strong, the same cannot be said if he is facing the whole Clan. No matter how strong one is, a single entity cannot win the numerical disadvantage. They will get tired sooner or later, getting themselves captured or killed.
“Will it be alright, Wang Lei-san? If you want, you can leave the Clan right now. No one will stop you right now, but if you delayed it for a long time the elder might gather enough force to kill you.
Wang Lei waved his hands, “Alright, enough. I told you not to worry. Even if the so-called God of Shinto that you guys worship came, they will have to bow before me. What can a mere human do against this King?”
After living with and interacting with Xuanyin and Caiyi, Wang Lei would also end up calling himself King sometimes. Though he did not hate it.
Shuri could only sigh while Suzaku sneered, “Bow before you? What are you? God or something? I have met many arrogant and ignorant people, but you will definitely take the number one spot.”
“Well thank you for the praise. I appreciate it.”
“That was not a compliment!” Suzaku’s voice raised a little. She was wondering how she was getting irritated by Wang Lei’s carefree attitude minute by minute. Here she was worried about him, and he acted as if he did not care about his life.
“Humph! Do whatever you want then! I will go and inform Gremory Clan to take Aunt and Akeno. If you want to die, die by yourself!” Suzaku said before leaving the room with an angry expression.
Wang Lei just shrugged his shoulders and started to play with little Akeno. His hand was already itching for a fight.
In ATGverse, except hidden Darkness overlords, there was barely anyone who could excite him over a fight. But here, in DxD was different.
First, he had most of his powers sealed, letting him enjoy the fight more. Second, there were being here that could push him even with his full powers. Such as certain dragon loli with the concept of infinite. Though he would never fight a loli. A loli should be cuddled and not to be hurt or killed This is what Wang Lei thinksdefinitely not the author.

“S-stop it, brother Wang Lei”
“Ara~, does little Akeno, not like it?”
“N-no, it feels great, but”
“Then leave it to big brother, I will take care of everything.”
“Umnnngg~!…if feels great, brother Wang Lei!”
“Did I not tell you? I am a massage master.” Wang Lei said as he massaged little Akeno’s shoulder skillfully.
Shuri was looking at them with a doubted expression.
They were still in the guest room, waiting for Suzaku’s guest to arrive. Since it was boring to just sit, Wang Lei started to play with Akeno. As they were playing, Akeno said that she was feeling pain in her shoulders. So, Wang Lei being a gentleman, started to give her a massage.
“Em., Wang Lei-sanare you really alright with not leaving this place? No matter how I think about it, a single man cannot fight against the whole clan.”
Wang Lei, who was massaging little Akeno’s shoulders who had a blissful expression looked towards Shuri before saying, “You are really making me shy little Shuri. To be worried about me that muchdon’t tell me, you have fallen for me?”
Shuri frowned, “What nonsense are you talking about Wang Lei-san? I have a husband!”
“Yeaha husband that left his wife and daughter to die.”
“That!”
“Leave it. I am not in the mood of fighting over a pointless topic.” Before she could finish, Wang Lei waved his hand and said.
Shuri had an angry expression, but she becomes silent and looked away. Even if he was their benefactor, she did not like if someone blistered her husband.
SLIDE
With the door sliding open, Suzaku returned. She looked at her aunt and gently said, “I have sent my message to them, aunt. They will be here soon to take you with them.”
Shuri formed a smile on her face, “Thank you, Suzaku.”
Suzaku shakes her head, “Please. I must help my family. Don’t worry. I will definitely let nothing happen to you Aunt!” She said with conviction and determined eyes.
She was still scared thinking if Wang Lei was not present, then she might not even able to meet her Aunt and cousin.
She looked towards him with gentle eyes, but she still could not take his arrogance. It really ticked her off.
“Oh! Are they coming? Did you call Sirzech’s little sister, Rias?… if I remember correctly, then at this time, she should be a loli” Wang Lei made a thinking face while saying to Suzaku.
Suzaku had her brow twitched hearing him, “Do you know them? Gremory household.”
Wang Lei, who was in deep thought came out of it, “Huh? You mean Gremory Family? No, I do not know anything about them.”
Raising her delicate brow, Suzaku asked, “Then how do you know them?”
‘If he did not know them, then how he was talking as if he personally met them.’
“Well, it is the family of Demon Lord in the underworld. It is not a secret or anything.” Wang Lei looked at her as if an idol as she was stating obvious. Everyone knew about the Gremory family in the underworld. Their son was Demon Lord after all.
Suzaku’s temple twitched. She could only nod as what Wang Lei said made sense.
“Now we have to wait for them to come and take Aunt and Akeno.”
A glint passes in Wang Lei’s eyes as he smirked, “Yeahwe have to wait for them to take them.”
No one knew what he was thinking at this moment.

In the underworld, Gremory Household.
“Brother, I am going to pick a member for my peerage from Himejima Clan.” A little redhead said to her brother having red hair, reaching up to his h.i.p.s.
Her brother nodded, “You can. But I have heard that the member you are going to pick is an outcast? For having the bloodline of a fallen angel.”
Redhead nodded. It was no surprise that her brother knew about it. He was demon lord after all. It would be strange if he did not know about it; it was concerning his family.
“If that’s the case, you should take Heinrich with you. He will protect you from any unseen danger.” The demon lord said to her sister with worried filled eyes.
He knew that the Himejima clan resented devils or anything related to evil. He did not want to let his sister go to such a dangerous place. So he thought of sending his Bishop to protect her. He could be reassured if he was with her.
The little redhead nodded at her brother.
After waiting for some time, a magic circle forms in the room, teleporting out a gentle-looking old man with a dandy white beard and hat.
He bowed towards the demon lord before looking towards the redhead.
“Shall we go, Miss Rias?” his gentle voice resounds in the room, making one unconsciously letting their guard down in front of him.
Rias nodded before standing with Heinrich. A teleportation circle blooms below them, teleporting them away from the underworld.
The demon lord silently stares at the place where his sister and Bishop once stood.
CLICK
The door of the hall opened, and a silver-haired woman entered the hall.
She was a beautiful young woman appearing to be in her early twenties with back-length silver hair that features a long braid on each side with small blue bows at the ends, while the rest is let down which ends in twin braids and red eyes; a beauty indeed.
Pulling a trolley of snakes and tea, she reached close to the demon lord table and bowed, “Sirzech-sama, it is time for your afternoon tea.” Her soft voice resounds in the silent hall, prompting the demon lord to take a gander towards her.
Sirzech looked towards her though it was hidden well, the silver maid could see the longing in his eyes. But she ignored it. She has already promised someone else to be her partner. She cannot go back on her promise as she also loved that person.
Seeing her not looking at him, Sirzech sighed, “Are you still thinking that HE is alive? Even if he was, he would have long forgotten about you as he never came to take you.” he said in a low tone, enough for the maid to hear.
There was no change in her expression as she replied, “He has promised me. And as you are aware, what that person’s promise entails. And even if he did, I have already given my heart to that person. It is meaningless to persuade me, Sirzech-sama. You should give more attention to your wife.”
After completing her part, she bowed before leaving the silent demon lord, who could only look at her left-back. That seemed too far from his reach.
