As soon as Zinovia got Issei to the base of the Universe Keepers, Odin was there waiting for them. Odin said, "You two didn't let me finish what I was saying."
Zinovia said, "My apologies."
Issei said, "Likewise."
Issei bowed and then Odin said, "Stop bowing to me, Issei. You are the strongest being in our universe. You could easily defeat a God. Well, I want to tell you this, I gave you back your Sacred Gear. The owner of it before I took it away from him was using it for evil. Am I right, Ddraig?"
Ddraig answered, "That is correct. Used it for killing Devils. He's a member of the Anti-Devil Faction or something like that."
Issei said, "I see."
Zinovia said, "This day just keeps getting better."
Odin said, "Well, just wanted you to know before Ddraig introduced himself to you a second time."
Issei said, "Thank you Odin. But does the multiverse really just need me. And no one else."
Odin answered, "Yep. Well, you'll see when it is time for you to get moving."
Odin looked around and then said, "The women here really do have nice curves."
Issei said, "That they do, Lord Odin."
Odin said, "Issei, you are like a God. So, don't be calling me Lord Odin. Just call me Odin. She can call me Lord Odin. But you, you are too strong to be considered a regular Dragon. Well, good luck, Issei. And good luck to all members of the Universe Keepers. Have fun."
They said, "Yessir."
Odin smiled and disappeared and then Zinovia said, "Well now, welcome to the base of the Universe Keepers. Not everyone is from our universe. Like Lord Odin mentioned earlier, there could be an evil you. You could be an ally. A magician. A regular person that hasn't become a Devil. A dead. And so on. Our job is to protect the known universe's. And we do that at the cost of our own lives. We are all immortal after joining the organization. I am the leader of the organization like I said before. Zinovia Bael is my name. And there are a total of 250,000 members of the Universe Keepers. Each member is different. And they each were chosen from other universes."
Issei heard that and looked around and then said, "Nine-Tailed Foxes, Elves, Dark Elves, Humans, Devils, Angels, Dragons, and more."
Zinovia said, "Very intuitive. Most of them are Humans. But trust me when I say this, they are all strong enough to handle a threat within a universe."
Issei looked at them and then Zinovia said, "But not strong enough to take you out."
Issei sighed and then a Devil stepped forward and said, "Welcome to the Universe Keepers. I'm Mihalis Agares, a Devil. Nice to meet you."
Issei said, "Issei Hyoudou, a Dragon. The pleasure is all mine."
Mihalis said, "So, you are from Earth. That universe is crazy strong I heard."
Issei heard that and looked at Zinovia and Zinovia said, "It is true. Earth is known as one of the top universe's in the multiverse. Mihalis is from the actual top universe, Snowopolis. It's always cold over there."
Mihalis smiled and then said, "Well, no need to be so honest about it. I'm not entirely the strongest in my universe, but everyone treats me that way. Just like you, Issei."
Issei said, "I see."
As he said that, a girl stepped forward saying, "I am Avra Shax. Also a Devil from Snowopolis. Welcome to the Universe Keepers, Issei."
Issei said, "Likewise."
Avra asked, "What brings a man from the 2000's here?"
Zinovia answered, "Lord Odin revived him from the dead to be a member of this organization."
Mihalis said, "Lucky you."
Avra said, "You even have the Gods on your side, huh? Must be tough."
Issei said, "Not really. I just do as I please to protect what I want."
Avra smiled and then a God appeared and then Zinovia said, "Long time no see, Ybris."
Ybris, God of the Universe of Ashtar said, "Likewise Zinovia. So, I got another job for your people. I am here to tell you that I am being hunted."
Everyone heard that and then asked, "By whom?"
Issei answered, "God Slayers."
Ybris said, "Exactly. The group is literally called God Slayers. And are literally on their way to kill me. So, I need your help to defeat them."
Mihalis looked at him and Ybris looked at them and then Zinovia said, "It looks like you are up, Issei."
Ybris heard that and then looked at him and then said, "Issei Hyoudou, huh? It's been a long time since I heard that name. He was one of the best Devils that I ever had in Ashtar."
Zinovia said, "Well, he was the best of our universe as well. Till he was defeated by the Anti-Devil Faction."
Issei nodded and then Ybris said, "But you are no longer a Devil, huh? You are a Dragon, a Dragon God to be exact. But you need to earn that title after all. You need to look up at the scenery and enjoy what you see before it is too late. But I can sense a strong aura within you. I'm with you."
Zinovia said, "Issei, this is going to be your first job. So, make sure that you don't let my friend here die. I will make you regret it if you do."
Issei looked at her saying, "I know. Let's do this, Ddraig."
Ddraig said, "Understood. Let's do this, partner."
Issei walked over to Ybris and Ybris touched his shoulder and they disappeared. As soon as they appeared before the Resistance to protect Ybris, Ybris said, "This is where the battle is taking place before they get to me. This is the final stand of all life in the universe. I die, everyone in the universe dies with me. The Resistance is led by Michael, an Angel. The leader of the Angels to be exact. He'll tell you more about the situation."
Ybris took him to Michael and then Ybris said, "Michael, the Universe Keeper is here. Tell him how bad the situation is. And I'll be counting on you to defeat the God Slayers, Issei."
Michael said, "You can count on me."
Issei said, "I'll do it."
Ybris disappeared and then appeared back in her Divine Realm watching the universe in which she created.
