Issei and his team which consist of Rias, Akeno, Koneko, Kiba,Xenovia ,Irina and also Sona, Tsubaki, Saji, and Rossweisse were currently holding off Loki, The Asgardian God until Odin manage to teleport Mjolnir to the battlefield in order to help them defeat Loki.

Issei currently in his Balance Breaker form was engaging Loki with the help of Rias, while the rest were fighting against Fenrir and his two children Hati and Skoll and also the Midgardsormr clone.

Akeno who accepted her Fallen Angel powers thanks to the help of Issei took down the Midgardsormr clone with a powerful attack which combined both her Holy Lightning power and her Elemental Magic power.

Meanwhile, Xenovia, Kiba, and Saji who were injured by Loki's large scale attack were healed thanks to the Phoenix tears and was now resting and looking at Issei and Rias fight against Loki, Smiling knowing that Issei and Rias will emerge victorious from the fight.

Issei was panting while he avoided yet another attack from Loki.

He was extremely frustrated because so far he and Rias couldn't even land a single attack while Loki managed to land a few powerful hits on them, Injuring them In the process.

"It's not working! We can't even land a single attack on him, If we keep going like this we will die!" Issei who was clearly frustrated said to Rias.

"Well right now we need to hold Loki off until Odin-Sama manage to teleport Mjolnir here" Rias replied bothered by that as well.

Issei was about to launch yet another attack on Loki when he saw something attaching itself to Loki.

"What the heck is that?" Issei said not knowing what the thing that was holding Loki's leg was.

"Really Hyoudou? That's what you say? You should be thanking me for saving your ass" Saji shouted to Issei.

"Oh, that was you Saji? Thanks for the help" Issei said thankfully, smiling to his friend and rival that came to his help.

"Ok now I am going to send you back to where you came from you war-freak god!" issei shouted at Loki, happy that he now had a chance to hit him.

Dragon Shot Issei said with a triumphant smirk on his face while launching his attack on Loki.

"Ahh, you dare to hurt me you devil weaklings? I who is a god? Now you should feel my wra-"

The now damaged Loki started to say but before he could finish his sentence a magic circle caught his attention.

a magic circle from Asgard appeared and from it emerged Mjolnir in its full glory.

Loki looked at the magic circle first with curiosity, wondering who his father sent to help in the fight against him until his eyes suddenly widen while also frowning when he realized what it was that came out of the magic circle.

"Mjolnir?!" Loki said shock evident in his voice but before he could do anything else Rossweisse suddenly appeared next to Rias and Issei.

"Message from Lord Odin, if the Red Dragon Emperor is there, leave it to him," Rossweisse said.

"Me?! I don't think I will be able to do this" Issei replied surprised by what Rossweisse said and also unsure if he will manage to do this.

"Don't worry Ise, I know you'll do this I believe in you!" Rias said trying to encourage her adorable servant.

Issei just smiled and nodded before he dashed toward the hammer in an attempt to grab it.

'Everyone is counting on me to do this so I better pull this off or I won't be able to confess to Buchou and the girls. I need to keep Buchou and the rest safe so I could achieve my dream of becoming the Harem kind!" Issei thought determined which was quickly replaced by panic when he thought about something he hadn't thought about before.

' I don't know if I'll be able to even lift that freaking huge hammer let alone attack with it' Issei contemplated, starting to panic when he realized that he might not be able to even lift the hammer

["Don't worry Partner, All you need to do is Boost a few times and you will be able to lift the hammer"] Ddraig told him, Clearly knowing what to do.

Issei acknowledged what his partner said and did not respond.

[Boost! X5] Ddraig voice echoed through the battlefield.

Hearing this Issei's team smirked, They were certain that Issei will manage to win against Loki without a problem now that he got Mjolnir.

But their smirks vanished and looks of pure horror replaced it when they saw what just happened.

"Here I Go!" Issei shouted eagerly while reaching for the hammer and was about to grab it when suddenly he was bitten by something large, piercing his armor and body in the process

Issei who was now forced out of his Balance Breaker form was violently thrown into a cliff.

["Partner! Are you ok?"] Ddraig roared through the gauntlet in worry for his partner who was badly injured.

Issei who by now was already in the bottom of the cliff lying on the ground lifeless suddenly heard the person he loves the most shouting his name in panic.

"Issei! Hang in there! Issei" Rias said tears starting to form in her eyes.

"B-Buchou," Issei said struggling to cling onto his life.

"I'm sorry, Buchou. I failed at the most important moment again. I wasn't able to protect the rest" Issei continued sadly that he failed in his mission to win against Loki and protect his friends.

"Don't Speak!" Rias replied with a voice full of dread.

"Buchou, please run," Issei replied to her wavering.

"No! If-if you die, I-I won't be able..." Rias replied with a voice full of sorrow, With tears now flowing from her eyes.

Suddenly Issei tried to reach with his hand toward Mjolnir but failed.

"Hammer...The Hammer" Issei said

"Ise, please stop" Rias said in sadness.

"No Buchou, I swore to protect you and the rest. I failed, I am sorry Buchou I didn't even get the chance to say that I Lo..."

Then he was gone, Lying lifeless in Rias hands.

Rias gasped when she saw Issei lifeless in her hands.

Then she let out a scream full of anguish and agony "ISSEI, NOOOOOOO!"

The rest of the team stared at the lifeless body of Issei, appalled and with horror clearly written on their face from what happened. They were all sobbing from the loss of their friend.

Loki was smirking while looking at the events that transpired. He was now sure that now with the Red Dragon Emperor dead no one will interrupt his plans to start Ragnarok.

That is until he saw a magic circle and out of it came the White Dragon Emperor followed by another Nekomata with a busty figure with black hair and a kimono and also a blonde man with glasses with a powerful his hand.

Loki who was now immensely annoyed cursed at his bad luck.

He never thought he will have to fight with both of the Heavenly Dragons.

'Damn it! I never thought that The White Dragon Emperor will appear, He should be no problem to someone like me if I wasn't exhausted from my fight with these devils'

Vali with the addition of Kuroka and Arthur appeared on the battlefield.

"Ok he should be here," Vali said while moving his head to the sides searching for something.

"Found it! Nya" Kuroka playfully said while pointing at Fenrir.

Vali nodded and entered his Balance Breaker Form

[Vanishing Dragon Balance Breaker!] Albion voice echoed through the battlefield surprising everyone.

The devils were looking at Issei's lifeless body when they heard Albion voice and turned around to see Vali and his team.

"Vali?!" They all said in wonder and confusion except for Koneko.

"Kuroka Nee-sama why are you here?" Koneko asked frowning, fearing her sister came to take her.

"Don't worry Shirone, I am not here for you Nya" Kuroka playfully said to her sister. with a playful smirk on her face.

"Then why are you here?" Koneko replied wondering what her sister was here if not for her.

"For that" Kuroka replied while pointing her finger at Fenrir.

Koneko was going to ask her sister what they wanted to do with Fenrir but before she managed to speak a loud howling was heard.

They all looked in the direction of the noise only to see Vali holding a chain attached to a collar around Fenrir's neck. and to everyone shock and bewilderment Loki was now lying on the ground unconscious.

"Kuroka let's go I got Fenrir" Vali said to her.

"Nya that was quick Vali, I barely had time to talk with my sister" she replied cocking an eyebrow in surprise at how quickly Vali managed to capture Fenrir before she went to Vali who was visibly bothered by something and Arthur.

"See you later Shirone" Kuroka shouted to her sister before teleporting away.

After Vali and his team disappeared everyone was still wondering why they were here and what they wanted to do with Fenrir but they were most surprised by how easily he took out Loki even without Mjolnir's help.

They were all deep in thoughts until a sound of sobbing snapped them out of their thoughts.

They all looked and saw Rias who started to sob again, Her head in Issei's shoulder embracing him tightly.

"Ise, My Ise. my-my adorable servant why d-did you leave me? W-we still had things to do together" Rias said stuttering a bit while crying.

"I-I can't deal with this, I don't think I can live anymore now that you are gone" she continued

"Rias..." Akeno said in a soothing tone trying to comfort her friend, but she as well felt the same as her.

"I love you! We love you. Me, Akeno, Asia, Koneko, Xenovia and Irina..."

Rias said confessing her feelings to the now deceased Issei Hyoudou.

The girls were quiet but they all agreed with what she said, They all truly did love him.

Suddenly Rias started to release a powerful aura, Her power of destruction starting to flare up.

"Rias! What are you doing?" both Akeno and Sona asked her in fear while the rest were just starting at her with wide eyes.

"Ise! I cannot deal with you leaving me, leaving us. I don't think I can continue to live anymore when the person I love dearly is dead" Rias who by now stopped crying said with a voice that sounded a bit unsure.

Everyone looked at Rias. Astonished by what she was saying.

"Rias, You can't do this! Think of your other servants and friends, Think of your brother and your parents. How do you think they will react when they hear that you gave up on life so easily."

Akeno and Sona said, trying to convince Rias.

"You're right. I can't be selfish, That's not how a king behaves" Rias who by now wiped her tears away said agreeing with Akeno and Sona.

No one added anything else but they all thought the same thing. They will not give up to grief and remorse.

They had to be strong for their friend, For Issei.
