'I can't imagine a bigger idiot'
[I cant believe Ddraig supported him]
'What's this?'
At the school gate, there's a lot of girls that were talking among themselves.
"I heard that there's going to be a new student" whispered a girl.
"I heard that it's a cute boy" whispered another one.
"I hope that I can get my chance with him"
'Eh, just a new kid'
[What are you going to do with the heiress?]
'What do you mean?'
[She lost her Vanguard and a Bishop, and the power of the peerage has decreased]
'Well, she still has me, and I have you'
[Draig is way more powerful than me. He's a Dragon Emperor, the only one of two]
'Where's the other?'
[I don't know where Albion is, and you saw Draig]
'What's your point?'
[You remember when you had to drink the blood of a Dragon King, right?]
'Yeah…'
[Next time, it's going to be a Dragon Emperor, and after that it's going to be a Dragon God]
'A Dragon God?'
[The only Dragon God that exists is Ophis]
'Great, it was hard enough to convince Tiamat'
[We're not really good friends…]
'I'm going to die'
[Let's hope that the host of Albion is friendly]
'yeah'
[When you unlock the Balance Breaker, you're going to need the blood of a Dragon Emperor]
'great…'
A bit later, when Markus entered the classroom he sat and heard the teacher saying that there's a new student.
[I feel like it's going to be interesting]
Markus eyed the new student, then became amused.
"Nice to meet you all, I'm Naoto Kurogane, I hope that we're going to have a nice year together"
[He's not human]
'Not fully'
The new student took the empty seat beside him.
[I get it now]
'Took you long enough'
[He's maybe a bit different than you, but he is a half vampire]
After the school day, Markus was heading to the clubroom. When he entered, he saw Rias in a more depressed state.
"Are you ok, Rias?"
"She's been like that ever since… Issei" stated Akeno.
"still…"
"I kind of understand how she feels" sighed Kiba "Not only we lost two members, but also two powerful and useful Sacred Gears"
"We'll be fine, i'm sure we can pull through"
"Can you heal anyone?" asked Kiba.
"Well no...but I can fight"
"Offense is important, but support is also important"
[He's right. Draig could easily boost the powers of anyone he wishes]
'I'm aware of that'
[You don't know anything about strategy, do you?]
'Not exactly'
[Imagine being in an army that lost its Weaponry and Supply Base]
'I get it'
The door opened and Koneko entered.
"I followed Issei and…"
"What happened?!" asked Rias.
"He joined the church with Asia. They are now exorcists, and Issei has a Holy Blade"
Rias returned to her depressed state.
"Why did he do that?" mumbled Kiba
"They manipulated him"
Rias suddenly got up.
"I'm going to ask him to come back again"
"Rias, you shouldn't do that" advised Akeno.
"Thats a stupid idea"
"Even if he said it in a rude manner, Markus is right, approaching Issei now is dangerous" said Kiba.
"I need to get them back!"
"Rias…"
"He wont listen to you anymore"
"I'm sure that I can have them to come back"
[Let us come with you]
"yeah"
[I know Draig, I can try to talk with him]
"Thank you"
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Rias and Markus teleported in front of a church.
"This is where Koneko saw Issei…"
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
"I'm not going to back down"
"They might kill us"
"My Peerage needs Issei and Asia"
"Fine, but I don't like this"
They both entered and saw Issei sweeping near the altar.
'They have the Red Dragon Emperor sweeping?'
"I won't back down. Issei!"
The boy froze.
"Why are you here?"
"I'm here… We're here to get you back"
"I'm not interested"
"Rias, we really need to leave"
"We came here to get Issei and Asia back, and I will get them back"
"Thats not possible at the moment"
[She did lost a lot of Pieces when the host of Draig and the blond girl left]
'I know that'
"Issei, why did you really leave? Didn't you want to have a harem?"
"I don't care about it now"
"Issei…"
"Listen, they are going to use you"
"I don't need you to give me orders or act as I'm in your care"
"I'm trying to help you, dumbass"
"I know that you were happy when I left"
"Thats not important right now"
"Just get out of here" Issei returned to his sweeping.
Markus attempted to approach, but stopped when the gauntlet manifested itself.
[Didn't you hear my partner? Get lost! We won't be your next cure]
"They are manipulating you, Ddraig"
[I'm the Red Dragon of Domination, and I choose what to do!]
'He's lost his mind'
"Issei" called Rias "What do you want me to do to get you back?"
'She's getting so desperate'
[Having the Red Dragon of Domination is something to gloat about]
'What about you?'
[I'm not as popular as Ddraig]
'true…'
[And there's something that scaring me]
'What could scare you? You're dead'
[He possess a Dragon killing weapon]
'seriously?'
[I don't know which one, but it's really strong]
"Welcome to my home, Devils"
It was the one that showed up with Irina.
"Can I ask why in Heaven's name are you here?"
"We're here to get something you took"
"I didn't take anything, unlike you, I gave them a choice"
[He has a point]
'It was rigged'
"I suggest you go. I may be hospitable now, but I can quickly let my Inquisitor side to come out"
"Inquisitor?"
"Inquisitors are the assassins of the church" replied Rias "They are really powerful"
"Doesn't look so tough…"
"I would like to say that you're stronger than them, but it's not the case"
"Then we need to leave"
"I can't really go now, not without Issei"
"They're going to kill us"
[You need to get her out of here]
"We're leaving"
"No, not without-ahh? Yaah!"
Markus picked her up and used his speed and blurred away.
