[Spoilers]

"Have you ever suffered sinful regret?
They say it kills like a blissful cigarette.
Even in the name of righteousness,
For those to live on without knowingness.

Only to be shoved,
By my beloved.
Am I allowed to grieve?
With my hefty heave?
Can I?
I'm not the smartest guy,
But, without cut, I know,
I chose the right 'shadow.'
I mean, at least,
They didn't have to be deceased.

I am the 'terrifying' incarnation of sin, The Devil.
I am the undying damnation who cannot yet settle.
With that fact, I am too greatly hated.
It's funny, I may just be fated,
To be hurled,
Into a world,
Where I am incarcerated,
As all great Seven Sins.
Yet, this is where it... begins."

...
W-Why am I here?

The distorted space filled with multitudes of all kinds of light vibration. It seemed like a vivid dream yet bland with nothingness. It was the Dimensional Gap, the former home of the Infinite Dragon God, Ouroboros, or [∞], and the vacant home of the True Red Dragon God Emperor, Dragon of Dragons, or [DxD].

He tried to summon the [Boosted Gear], but to no avail. He had to leave; he couldn't stand the Dimensional Gap for it would rip him into nothingness, as he was still weak.

—!

Then suddenly, the surrounding area, for as far his sharp eyes could see, became pitch black.

W-What?

What could shift what was between a huge mass of worlds so quickly, so easily? The "plane" that wasn't governed by time, or affected by the laws of space? Changing what shouldn't have existed?

His answers came with sense of dread that overcame him. It was unlike anything he had even felt, which may be that way since he was powerless to fight. It was on par with overwhelming power from [DxD] or [∞], which also cause his same numbness at their full bluntness, yet the vileness it radiated was unmatched. There was only one thing he could think of, something even he couldn't help but despise, despite befriending the other two beings that matched it potentially.

T-Trih-

YoU aRe CoRrEcT, sEkYiRuUtEi

His eyes widened, but didn't move. He knew he couldn't do anything. He was utterly useless without his [Sacred Gear].

NoW, nOw, DoN't FeAr Me. I hAvE a PrOhOsItIoN fOr yOu.

The voice was as sinister as it was, oddly, friendly. It felt as it were the both the angel and devil atop one's shoulder when making a tough decision.

W-What is it? Issei, despite his question, felt as if he didn't want to know.

HoH? i ThInK yOu'Ll QuItE LiKe It.

The thought of him liking anything that disturbed his peace... well, it was rather horrifying, he wasn't a battle-freak, like Vali after all. He may be perverted, but he wasn't that crazy.

I kNoW tHe PlAn.

What plan? Was there a plan to cure his inability to see oppai? Issei wanted to ask, but decided to withhold his questioning, like a servant meeting its new master. However, he was sure that Trihexa, or [666], could read his mind.

It UsElEsS, yOu KnOw. EvErYtHiNg Is UsElEsS.

What was useless?! He felt so annoying without knowing for the first time in his life, without seeing breast anymore! The being talking to him could bring, and was bringing, the end of the world—the end of boobs! Why couldn't he have a fighting chance? Why did he have to choose?! Why was he STILL useless?!

HoW NoBlE oF tHeM tO SaCrIfIcE tHeMsElVeS tO wEaKeN mE, tHoSe CoCkY "lEaDeRs." It'S uSeLeSs.

His stomach harshly pitted, and his eyes widened once more at the sudden revelation. Even if he didn't know who would be sacrificing themselves, he knew that at least some people who would be a part of it. Especially, Sirzechs and Serafall, who would fight to protect their sisters and, by extension, the devil's populace and the rest of the world.

... Issei didn't respond. He could barely process what the creature had confessed. If it was useless, if he was useless, what was the point? Ophis wasn't at full strength and Great Red rarely left his domain to do anything if at all. His newest form, [D∞D], could barely take on one Super Devil with him unable to fight after. What good was it to fight against something that could shrug off attacks from multiple Gods, Super Devils and other powerful beings like it was nothing? That was why no one bothered Great Red, after all.

SiLeNt I sEe.

The brutal creature paused.

ChOoSe WiSeLy, In—WhAt YoU hUmAnS cAlL 3-60's—ThReE mInUtEs.

The aura around Issei felt as if it wanted to choke him. His ears began ringing and his eyes blurred with the sense of asure and easy death. It was odd feeling that way. His deaths were always... so troublesome.

EvErY dEvIl ReVeRtInG bAcK tO nOrMaL. EvErYoNe WiLl LoSe ThEiR mEmOrIeS oF yOu Or EvEr BeInG a DeViL, aNd YoU bEcOmE [Sin]

Or!

ThE SuIcIdE gRoUp FaCeS mE iN vAiN aNd I dEsToRy ThIs wOrLd, FiNaLlY.

The voice changed into someone familiar, as if it was trying to mock him, effectively so, though without rage.

Hurry and choose, Issei-kun!

Irina's voice echoed into the depths of the black oblivion. It startled him into flinching harshly. He hadn't expected the being into taking one of his beloved friends' voice. It was so... similar; he couldn't find a fault in its speech or tone that wouldn't have made it Irina's voice. Vivid images of her repeating the words, of her disappearing because the chance that second choice outshone the former's success and with the former—could he live without them?

A gut feeling told him he was forgetting something, something so important, he felt as if the first choice wasn't the right choice. But, he really wanted to select it, as it was something he would most definitely would easily and instantly give up himself to let everyone live. However, he didn't know what it was that he was forgetting.

Issei didn't know it, but he would be giving up his freedom to live in somewhat peacefulness as he was. He, as last stain of pure [Sin], would have to live knowing that the ones he saved would only hunt him as if it were some kind of sick sport. And he would be the only one to know of it, and his great sacrifice.

And that if failed to live, Trihexa would devour the world.

But, he would at least be saving everyone, right? If he could hold out, that was. It was an easy task, right?

The hold around him loosened and he was left to sputter for air on the sudden surface beneath him. The answer was obvious, if he wanted to save everyone, it was the former.

However, what if Trihexa was lying? How exactly does one change devils into angels or a fallen?

—What was holding [666] back from killing him at that moment?

W-Why are you giving me a choice?

Issei swore he could feel the beast grinning as time was running out.

It'S bEcAuSe It'S fUn WaTcHiNg ThE "HeRo" FaLl!

It was mocking him for Issei felt like Trihexa was withholding information, lying. However, Issei, he knew that Trihexa wouldn't dare to tell him anyway.

He didn't know why but oddly, at its words, an "image" of God appeared into his mind. God died to seal away the beast, right? But did Trihexa also give the God a decision like his, then? But, nonetheless, it furthered his doubt, what if, though he didn't know what actually was at stake, he couldn't get them to fall in love with him again? What if he couldn't touch, and still couldn't see their beloved chests? He still wanted to see Koneko's breast grow!

However, he didn't know how powerful his presence in the world was. He didn't calculate that if no remembered him, or never remembered being a devil (if they were), then—

OnCe YoU fALl, I'lL dEvOuR yOu ThEn ThE wOrLd!

Issei was harshly taken aback. It wasn't by the threat, but how quick the voice changed, and whose voice it was.

It's so much fun!

It was... Rias' voice.

Now...

Tears came to his eyes. He hoped he chose the right choice. ...Would they, truly, forget—me?He never thought that hard before. But, his choice would change the whole world, so which was the right? Why did he have the right?

Perhaps, this time... I can... Maybe I—

CHOOSE!

I-I choose—

Vorpal: I'm not supposed to be working on this. But this story was really bothering me, and wouldn't leave me alone for the longest of times, especially after reading Vol. 21. Ugh, that volume... (ι´Д｀)ﾉ ┻━┻

This will include various OCs.
-Grace Sellzen {F} Priest/Warrior-Nun Human
A certain psychopath's sister, searching for the said psychopath. However, is he still that "psychopath?"
[Innocent Bro-con/A bitter reminder of Asia] (She seems like fun, lol)

...This is just one of them...

I like short prologues... (I'm lazy) (¬_¬) And I'm not too sure how to begin this story.
Oh and this story doesn't follow my previous one-shot. I just so happen to finish them both around the same time.
Editing: Some? An hour's work? Yes.

[Words: 1,666]

"Have a Nice Day"
-Vorpal

What if God's choice was to rid all Devils?
Let's see if it happens?

Lol, not.

I forgot this but this story was in originally inspired by:
"The Devil is a Part-Timer!/Hataraku Maou-sama!"
