Issei finally left the mall. But he felt happy, he could finally leave the cursed place he called Kuoh.

That's that. I won't be back for a long time. Issei thought.

He was standing outside of his house, wearing his new clothing. With that, he opened a magical circle with a dragon marking on it and left.

First destination: Armenia, Ddraig's Cave.


Scene change: with Vali


Vali is seen sitting in a chair on what seemed to be a balcony. He was in his mansion with the rest of his team. But with Albion, he immediately started panicking.

"Vali, I'm not sensing Ddraig's energy." Albion said.

"So, me fucking his girlfriends really did work. Haha! All we have to do now is wait... then we'll get into a real fight." Vali said.

"I know, when Ddraig leaves for a long time, he'll come back stronger. I just know it." Albion said.

"Haha! It's incredible!" Vali said.

Vali. I can't stand this much longer. If you continue this I will not hesitate to leave. Albion thought.


Scene change: With Issei.


Issei appears to be sitting on a bench on top of a mountain. There was also a city in front of the mountain. How did that happen?

"Are my teleportation powers that bad? I can't even appear in the place I'm thinking of?" Issei asked.

(Not exactly, we're in Armenia. Just not in the actual city. Try teleporting to my cave.) Ddraig told his partner mentally.

"You know, I can't exactly teleport to your cave if I don't know what it looks like.." Issei said.

(It's fine. I'll send your mind pictures of what it looks like. All you have to do is just think about it.) Ddraig said.

Issei was panicking a bit, but he controlled himself.

"Alright, I'm ready." Issei said.

(Good.) Ddraig said.

And with that, a blood-red magic circle appeared under Issei. And disappeared.

Issei soon appeared to be standing in front of a mountain. It looked normal, why?

"Hey Ddraig, did you mess something up?" Issei asked his partner.

"Oh... this truly is nostalgic." Ddraig said.

Just with that one sentence, he knew that the mountain in front of him wasn't normal. He decided to inspect the front on the mountain for a couple minutes. Only to find nothing.

"Partner, put your hand on the side of the mountain, I'll do the rest." Ddraig said.

"Uhm... Ok." Issei said, confused.

Issei went back to where he teleported. He placed his hand on the mountain.

"Now repeat the words I say..." Ddraig said.

Ddraig sent a telepathic message to Issei. It was a chant he could use to open the door to Ddraig's cave.

"Oh, Great Crimson Dragon."

"Hear me, allow me to conquer the dungeon you call home." Issei said.

After a second of saying that, the side of the mountain cracked in two. Leaving a lot of dust, and a cave.

Issei didn't even ask questions. He immediately walked in.

The cave seemed to magically close itself. A nice feature when trying to keep a base safe.

It was pitch black in the cave. He started to walk for about a minute. Until a bright light filled the room.

"What is going on?" Issei asked, panicked.

"Partner, you're fine." Ddraig said.

The light eventually settled down. Revealing something incredible to behold.

There were massive pools of gold everywhere. Filled to the brim with different types of gems and ores.

On the other side of the cave, there was a wall full of swords and blades on display. Issei took a look at the blades on display, he figured Venuzdnor would be somewhere around here.

"Hey Ddraig, where is Venuzdnor?" Issei asked.

"Ah, It should be on the bottom floor, where they live." Ddraig said, confusing the boy.

"They? Who are they?" Issei asked.

"You'll see when you get there, now, if I remember correctly, there should be an elevator around here..." Ddraig said.

Issei observed his surroundings for a minute. He eventually found an elevator built into the wall. But the door was made out of rocks, rather than it being made out of metal.

Right next to the elevator was a tunnel, it seemed to be leading down.

"Ok, I get the elevator, just not sure what the tunnel is for..." Issei said.

"Even a Dragon needs to go to the bottom floor. I used the tunnel to get from one floor to another when I still had a body" Ddraig explained.

"Ah... That makes sense." Issei said.

Issei began to walk in the elevator, pressing the lowest floor. Which was 7.

After a minute or so, The elevator stopped, and the door opened. He was greeted with something he did not expect. Hundreds of maids were greeting Issei. He appeared to be in some type of underground castle. The walls and floor were all made out of stone, and there was a long, red carpet in front of Issei, it was leading to a man sitting on a throne made out of stone, there were hundreds of blades sticking out of the back of the throne. He had golden/blonde hair with blue eyes.

"Hello there, who might you be?" The man asked.

(Partner, just calm down. I know him. Just tell him you're the host of Venuzdnor.) Ddraig told his partner mentally.

(Ok, I got this under control.) Issei said to his partner, making the dragon smile.

"Oh, I'm the host of Venuzdnor." Issei said, making the man's eyes widen slightly.

"Really now? We can put that to the test, - Getting up from his chair - follow me." The man said.

The man began to walk in a certain direction but was stopped by Issei.

"Wait hold on! I don't know your name." Issei said.

The boy's comment made the man chuckle a bit, but he soon replied.

"My apologies, I prefer to keep my name a secret, so you can just call me Tristan." The now-known "Tristan" said.

"Alright, sounds good." Issei said. They both continued walking.

(Quite a coincidence, don't you think, Ddraig?") Issei asked his partner mentally.

(The fact that you were planning on naming your child "Tristan" if you even had one?) Ddraig asked.

(Yeah actually. It sucks that I won't be having one anytime soon.) Issei said.

Ddraig became silent, he knew Issei was right.

After what seemed like a minute or so, the man spoke again.

"Here it is, the Infamous Venuzdnor." The man said as he pointed to a blade.

The blade seemed to be kept on lockdown, it was in a large room in the middle of the lair. The room had 9 FT thick, metal double doors. With golden accents around it.

Inside the room, it was very well furnished. White tile floor and white-painted walls. And in the middle of the room, was the Balde Venuzdnor itself. It was encased in bulletproof glass.

A/N: If you want to know what Venuzdnor looks like, just google it. The blade is from the anime, "Misfit of the Demon King Academy"

The second Issei walked into the room, along with Tristan. The sword had an intense reaction. It was trying to break free of the casing. Which it did eventually.

The blade flew towards Issei, which he just barely dodged.

"Well done kid, looks like I made the right choice." A voice spoke.

Tristan and Issei both turn back to see Venuzdnor itself floating in the air.

"It truly is incredible... After all this time, it has finally chosen a host." Tristan said.

"I'm guessing that voice belongs to the sword." Issei said.

"Yes indeed! I am Venuzdnor. I'm glad I can finally be with my host. I find you interesting... Just what potential could you possess?" Venuzdnor asked, coming closer to Issei.

Issei didn't respond and grabbed the sword. The blade immediately accepted Issei as a wielder.

"Just as a thought... You truly are worthy." Venuzdnor spoke.

"I don't know how powerful you are, but from what Great Red told me, you have the power to defy all laws?" Issei said.

"And that's exactly right!" Great red spoke, startling Issei.

"You were listening?" Issei asked.

"Of course, how could I not?" Great red said.

Issei didn't respond, rather, he looked back at Tristan.

"Hey, do you know where I can try this out?" Issei asked as he looked back at the sword.

"Yes, we do have a training field. It is on the sixth floor. You're more than welcome to check it out." Tristan said.

"Thank you, and thank you for giving the sword to me." Issei said.

"Not a problem. If I'm being honest, I kinda wanted that thing gone... I spent way too much money trying to conceal the thing." Tristan said.

"It's the price you pay for keeping me. After all, you WANTED to keep me." Venuzdnor said.

Tristan only gritted his teeth in anger. But eventually, let it slide.

"Well, I'll be heading out now, thank you." Issei said as he walked out of the room.

"No problem man, come back anytime!" Tristan said.

Issei only turned back and waved his hands.

"Haha! Will do!" Issei said as he kept on walking.

Issei decided to head back to the elevator. he went inside and clicked the 6th Floor.

After a minute, he made it to the 6th floor. The door opened. He was amazed.

He was greeted with an incredibly large training field. nobody was there, so he had it all to himself, but who would he train with?

"While this is nice and all, who do I train with? Am I really that lonely?" Issei said.

"I may be able to help with that." Great red spoke.

Issei shot his head at his right arm in desperation. While Ddraig raised an eyebrow in curiosity in the gear.

"How so?" Issei asked.

Great red didn't reply, rather, a blood-red magic circle appeared in front of Issei with a Dragon's marking in the middle of it. Out came of the circle what seemed to be a six-armed robot with katanas in each hand.

"Uhh, what is this? Great red, did you do this?" Issei asked as he looked back at his right arm.

"Yes in fact I did, This is a robot I had created a while back, but I never had the chance to use it. I guess now I can." Great red explained.

"Well, I'm glad you had this thing ready..." Issei said as he held Venuzdnor in a battle stance.

The robot flew at Issei at unimaginable speeds. He barely had time to block the first swing the robot had done.

The robot swung the other Katana at Issei's neck, trying to kill him. He didn't have time to just block the attack, he had no choice but to dodge. Even then, he still got a small cut from the Katana.

"You have to pour all your heart and soul for every swing, that's the best way to use me. If you want, you can also use me without your hands, but I'm a bit weaker. I also have a huge downside. I'll let you know that later." Venuzdnor spoke.

Issei didn't understand what he meant by the downside. But he took his words and trained for several hours.


Timeskip: 4 hours later.


It was 7:46 PM in Armenia, he still had to get used to the time zone. Since he would be staying there for a while.

Issei was in the same training field as before, he was absolutely drenched in sweat. But the robot seemed fine.

Great red decided it was enough. And teleported the robot away with a magic cirle to be used for another time.

"Alright, I think that settles that! You did some good work today Issei!" great red spoke.

"[Pant] [Pant] Yeah... [cough] but I'm dying!" Issei muttered.

"You'll be fine! Just have an Advil." Ddraig said.

"Tis' but a scratch!" Great red said.

The two Dragons shared their laughter for a minute, while Issei groaned in annoyance.

Suddenly, somebody entered the field. Issei took a look at the elevator door. Only to see Tristan walking in with a bottle of cold water. Making Issei drool a bit.

Tristan walked up to Issei handing him the water.

"Hey man, you've been here for quite a while, get some rest." Tristan said.

"Yeah, you're right. but I will say, using the sword is quite fun." Issei said.

"You are a pretty good host yourself, I will say that." Venuzdnor said.

"In my opinion, you were way too picky." Tristan spoke.

Venuzdnor outright ignored Tristan's antics, and focused on Issei.

"Hey, Issei, do you remember that downside I told you about earlier?" Venuzdnor asked.

"Oh yeah, you said it was pretty bad... What was it?" Issei asked.

"The cave you're in right now, it's not actually a cave... It's a castle." Venuzdnor said.

"Oh, well that explains the 7th floor... but what does that have to do with anything?" Issei asked, confused.

"The castle's name is Delsgade, I was directly created from the same magic used to create Delsgade. Meaning I am Directly linked to Delsgade. Can you guess what that means?" Venuzdnor asked.

Issei looked at the sword in his hand with curiosity... and confusion. Just what was he getting at?

"I'm surprised you don't understand Issei... It basically means you can't use the sword unless you're near Deslgade." Tristan spoke.

"What?! So basically I can't use this whenever I want to? That sucks..." Issei said.

"Don't worry, you're fine, the gods have recognized this problem and fixed it long ago. When I choose a host, They are automatically given the power to summon Delsgade, therefore, allowing you to use me whenever you want. The only downside is that summoning Delsgade takes quite a bit of time." Venuzdnor explained.

"So I'm going to have to summon an entire castle just to use you?" Issei said.

"Yup." Venuzdnor replied in a monotone voice.

Great red, Issei, and Ddraig all had shocked looks on their faces, but Tristan just had a smirk.

"Honestly, that's pretty half-assed." Great red added, getting a chuckle from Tristan and Issei.

"That's the price you pay if you want to use me. You've only been able to use me because you're in Delsgade." Venuzdnor said.

"You know, I've had enough surprised for today... - walking to the elevator - Tristan, can you show me a room I can sleep in?" Issei asked.

"No problem - walking towards Issei - follow me!" Tristan said.

Issei smiled. They both went up the elevator.

Tristan led Issei to his room. He Set all his stuff down. And went to sleep.


End.
