"Well what did you expect?" Rex shrugged. "One of those publicity-stunt weddings with hundreds of thousands of hours of unnecessary prep time, literally millions of photos, a ceremony where the whole fucking world's watching, an artist that no-one's ever heard of performing when they'd rather be doing anything else, and a reception with more toasts given than actual slices of toast I've eaten in my entire life, and dancing to shitty music instead of an actually good song like Sweet Child O' Mine?"
"Well, no." Grayfia admitted. "But-"
"Good." Rex replied. "Because I wouldn't be caught dead at one."
"Fair enough." Grayfia replied, remembering how, despite having enjoyed the day immensely, upon reflection, she absolutely LOATHED, WITH A PASSION, how extravagant and time-consuming her wedding to Sirzechs had been.
With her hair and makeup taking nearly four hours to do, a two-hour-long ceremony, post-ceremony photos that took way longer than they needed to be especially when the photos were only of eight people: herself, Sirzechs, Zeoticus, Venelana, Alice Gremory, her then-husband and Zeoticus' father Donovan Germory nee.
Belphegor uncle of second-ranked Rating Game champion Roygun Belphegor, Zekram Bael and his husband, Ryouko Buné, Venelana's mother, and the reception...
Fucking hell, she thought that reception would never end.
"Though that wasn't the point, Rex." Grayfia replied. "After the video of you and Palutena marrying, you included a video of you and her... uh..."
"Fucking?" Rex finished, simply. As his mother went further red, he chuckled. "Hehe. You jealous, Mom?"
Grayfia didn't answer, so Rex walked out, shutting the door behind him.

"Okay, I'll have two chocolate ice-creams, please." Rex spoke to a good-looking young woman, as he ordered some ice-cream for himself, Rias and Sona who were out together, looking for more signs of Kokabiel's forces not just in Kuoh, but all around the surrounding area, as was agreed an hour before.
Pit had taken it upon himself to fly out in the early hours of the morning and overlook the military base that Valper mentioned while Rex tortured him, and concluded that there was, indeed, nothing there worth noting.
"And one mint-choc-chip ice-cream as well."
The woman gave Rex the ice-creams he ordered for they came in little tubs, which Rex thought was nice as he paid for it, and Rex left, walking over to Rias and Sona, who were sitting on a bench and talking to each other while Rex came towards them.
Rex noticed that what Rias was talking to Sona about seemed to be making her blush heavily.
"Here you go, you two." Rex handed Rias and Sona Serafall had tried to insist that she come with Rex, Rias and Sona as well, but Rex had threatened her with no date, which got her to back down the two tubs with chocolate ice-cream in them, and then sat down next to Rias with his own.
As he started eating it, he noticed that his tub of ice-cream had a phone number written on it.
Rolling his crimson eyes, he ignored it, ate the ice-cream, and just played on his phone for a while. Rias and Sona ate their ice-cream, as the day was rather hot.
At around the same time as Rias and Sona finished their ice-cream, Rex received a call on his phone.
"Hello?"
"Rex!" Rex heard Xenovia's panicked voice. "We need your help! We got separated from Griselda, and-" he heard Xenovia's faint scream of "IRINA!"
"What's going on?" Rex asked, urgently.
"We're in an ambush!" Xenovia shouted. "Irina's down, and-" In an instant, the phone cut off.
"Rias, Sona." Rex whispered to his aunt and his aunt's best friend, after quickly sending a text to the other groups that were around Kuoh Town, those being Tsubaki and Mirajane, Tsubasa, Momo and Ruruko, Reya and Kiba, and Koneko, Tomoe and Isane.
Grayfia and Serafall were stationed back at Rias' apartment.
"What's up?" Rias asked.
"We've got to get going." Rex replied. "Irina and Xenovia are in trouble. They've apparently been ambushed."
"Oh, fuck." Rias got up, with Sona quickly following. "Where were they supposed to be, again?"
"Around the forest, at this point in time." Sona replied. "The forest that you'd pass through if you're going on a train to Kyoto from Kuoh. You remember that, Rias?"
"Oh, yeah." Rias replied. "It gets pitch-black when you go through the forest, the trees are so dense. Anyway, Let's go."
"Way ahead of you." Rex replied, creating a quick magical barrier to stop anyone from looking at him, Rias and Sona as he created a transportation-circle, then pulled Rias and Sona through it.
Seconds later, they arrived in the middle of an extremely dense forest, and upon entry, Rex immediately snapped his fingers, which summoned a number of spheres of light, which spread themselves in the air and bathed the surrounding area in warm, inviting light.
"Hey, look." Sona looked down at the muddy ground, and pointed. "Footprints."
Before Rias could reply, Rex had sped off on his ten white Devil wings, pulling his hairband out of his hair and transforming it into Excalibur Galatine. Rias and Sona did the same with their six Devil wings apiece.
Almost immediately after taking off, as Rex was flying at great speed, he heard the sounds of battle, which caused Rex to reflexively speed up.
After a moment or two of flying, Rex came into a very small clearing, and saw Xenovia, who had cuts, which ranged from just light graizes to very deep cuts, her Excalibur Destruction in hand, trying her absolute hardest to fend off a group of Vampires and Fallen Angels all of whom were wearing Nazi army uniforms and to protect Irina, who was lying on the ground, unconscious to be fair, Xenovia looked like she was gonna fall unconscious at any moment, with far more grievous wounds than Xenovia on her body.
"Kept you waiting, huh?" Rex shouted, as he landed on his feet and ran towards Xenovia, just in time to block a light-spear, thrown by one of the Fallen Angels, from piercing her side.
