Issei woke up in the exact place he remembered. In Delsgade. There was no sunlight since he was underground.
The room he was led into was very well furnished. Dark grey tile floor and grey-painted walls.
He had a king-size bed with red sheets and a white-colored casing. Across from the bed was 75-inch flatscreen TV.
Issei finally got up from the bed, still half asleep.
(Morning partner, Glad to see you're awake.) Ddraig spoke in Issei's mind.
(Mornin' Ddraig...) Issei said in his mind.
Issei finally got up from his bed, he was only wearing his shirt and pants he got from the store, and his raincoat was hanging on a clothing rack.
He got up from his bed and put on the raincoat. He decided to leave his room.
Issei was walking down the hallway of Delsgade. It was still unbelievable. Every time he had to use his sword, he had to summon this castle?
Oh god, just how am I going to summon something of this size? Issei thought.
(Just train your magic reserves. After all, summoning Delsgade consumes a pretty decent amount of magic. So even if you do summon it, you won't be able to sustain that magic for a long time.) Ddraig explained.
(But aren't I supposed to be training with Venuzdnor itself?) Issei asked.
(Remember, you're only able to use the sword because you're in Delsgade right now. You should try doing both. But don't overdo it.) Ddraig said.
While the two were thinking, another Dragon seemed to have awoken.
(Oh? I see you're both awake, good morning.) Great red said.
(Oh, hey Red, good morning.) Issei said.
(Still, thinking about that sword? It's not the only thing you should be thinking about.) Great red said.
(Huh? What are you talking about?) Issei asked.
(I'm talking about your Balance Breaker, right now, you've just combined mine and Ddraig's gear, you should try unlocking the rest of my armor." Great red explained.
(Oh, you're right. I work on that as well.) Issei said.
Scene change: ORC
Rias and the rest of her Peerage were seen in the clubroom. But there was somebody unfamiliar in the room as well.
But reason, Saji, and Vali were in there as well. They were both sitting down on the two couches in the middle of the room. While the rest was standing.
Rias was on sitting at her former desk because Asia took over her position after heading off to college. Akeno was also next to Rias. They both decided to visit because it was a half day for them.
Asia was looking out the school window just admiring the view. And Irina was seen standing next to her, but she was facing the other way.
Xenovia was also sitting on the couch, comforting herself next to Vali. He wasn't objecting to any of her treatment, however. And Koneko was sitting next to Saji, she was close to him but not as close as Xenovia with Vali.
Rossweisse wasn't there, she was still at the Norse Pantheon. She did call back the day before, and she said she would be back within the next two weeks or so.
After a minute of silence, Rias finally spoke.
"Hello everyone, I'm glad you could make it. I just wasn't to share something with you." Rias finally spoke.
Everyone in the room turned their head to Rias, who became quiet again.
"I just wanted you to meet someone, - Glancing at the unknown person in the room. - "Meet Arthur!" Rias said.
Everyone else in the room looked at the unknown figure named "Arthur" In the room. He had short, golden/blonde hair and dark purple eyes. He had an embarrassed look on his face.
"He has an extremely powerful sacred gear, I'm planning on adding him to the Peerage soon. You can also consider him the boyfriend of me and Akeno." Rias said.
Asia and Xenovia also had smiles on their faces after hearing that. But for Irina, it was a different story.
She had a confused look on her face. That was the last thing she expected to hear from Rias. After all, wasn't Issei the one she loved?
Boyfriend?! What is she talking about? Irina thought.
But for some reason, she didn't speak... But she wanted to. But something was stopping her.
The only thing she could do without gagging was asking where Issei was.
"Well Arthur, you are one lucky guy." Xenovia said.
Arthur only glanced at Xenovia and smiled.
"Really? You think?" Arthur asked.
"Why of course, Rias is the King of our peerage after all." Xenovia replied.
Irina couldn't take much more of this. So she eventually spoke up... But she had trouble doing so.
"H-Hey Rias... Where is Issei?" Irina asked.
Rias and the rest of the clubroom turn their heads to Irina, making her flinch. They all had curious looks on their faces.
"Issei? I have no Idea... He was here yesterday, but not today. He was also absent the entire week before that day." Asia said, making Irina even madder.
Something could have happened to him! He was gone for the entire week... And you didn't even visit him?! Irina thought.
"Even weirder, he looked different, his hair was a lot darker, and his eyes had a different color... it looked like it was red." Xenovia added.
"That isn't right... I'm sure he's fine." Rias said.
"We shouldn't be worrying, this is Issei we're talking about." Xenovia said.
"Yeah.. you're right." Asia said.
Arthur, who didn't know who they were talking about, finally spoke up.
"Uh- I'm sorry... But who is this... "Issei" Person?" Arthur asked.
Rias glanced back at Arthur, she had a reassuring look on her face and began to speak.
"Ah, I forgot to tell you... Issei is another member of our peerage. He's quite powerful." Rias said.
Arthur was thinking for a minute. Until his eyes widened.
No, it can't be him... He's just some random pervert! Arthur thought.
"By any chance, might his last name be "Hyoudou?" Arthur asked.
Rias and the rest of her peerage had surprised expressions on their face, they never expected him to know who Issei was.
"Yeah... it is actually, how do you know?" Akeno asked.
"No way! I don't believe it! How can that pervert be a part of your peerage!" Arthur said.
"Yes, I know what you're thinking. It's a little strange. But Issei is in fact very powerful. He has the Boosted Gear, one of the Thirteen Varieties of Longinus. The gear is known for killing gods." Rias said.
Arthur could only stare in shock, he never expected the pervert to be so strong.
"But I can't help but wonder... how do you know him?" Akeno asked.
"Well, I used to attend Kuoh Academy, the year before I graduated, I would always see him peeping on other girls in some club. He would always be with two other people." Arthur explained.
"Well, I'm not that surprised... That's how most people in the school know him. But he's a force to be reckoned with." Koneko spoke.
"But another thing, he's already defeated a god. It was Loki... He used Mjolnir, Thor's hammer to do so." Koneko continued.
Arthur couldn't believe it. How could somebody like that defeat a god?! He wouldn't believe it. Never!
But little did all the other girls know... (Except Irina) They had just lost the one person who truly loved them.
Scene change: Back with Issei.
"Achoo!" Issei sneezed.
"Fuck... is somebody gossiping about me? what the fuck?" Issei asked himself.
He appeared to be in the same training field as last time, he was using the same robot as last time. But quickly took a water break.
He was in his balance breaker while using Venuzdnor. It was definitely a power drainer.
"Damn, we are a good team.. don't you think?" Issei asked.
"Yes! The power of Destroying all the laws in the universe is truly incredible." Venuzdnor added.
The robot was in pretty bad shape. It had a lot of cuts and dents.
"Yeah, But you didn't technically cut the robot. Since I can defy all laws in the known universe, somebody dodging my attack won't mean they avoided the attack. It would still hit them regardless." Venuzdnor said.
"Damn, you are powerful." Issei said.
"Haha! Why thank you!" Venuzdnor said.
Issei took a look back at his right arm. He started to speak.
"Hey, Great red, you think you can repair the robot? - Glancing at the robot - it doesn't look like it's in good shape." Issei said.
"Don't worry, I'm already on it." Great red said.
The robot's damages began to repair automatically and at a rapid pace. It was impressive.
"Damn, that was fast..." Issei said, shocked.
"I always take pride in my abilities to fix objects to their former state." Great red exclaimed.
Issei ignored Great red's comment. And focused on something else.
"Hey Venuzdnor, - Glancing at the blade in his hand - If I can summon Delsgade, does that mean it's technically my castle?" Issei asked:
"Yes, it does. But At the same time, it doesn't. I originally belonged to 1 other host, and that's it. He was the one who created me and Delsgade. But for some unknown reason, he went missing, never to be seen again. Even I don't know what happened to him. He's probably dead." Venuzdnor explained.
"So if he's dead, it's my castle?" Issei asked.
"Yes, it does. Use my power wisely." Venuzdnor said.
"You have my word. I swear on it." Issei said.
"Good, now keep on training." Venuzdnor said.
Timeskip: 4 hours later. 8:35 PM.
Issei had been going at it with the training robot for the next few hours. He finally managed to unlock Great red's entire balance breaker. (Try imagining The Cardinal Crimson promotion with Golden lights instead of red.)
Issei was sitting on the same bench he always did when he was taking a break from training. He had gotten a lot better Using Venuzdnor, and how to use its abilities. He was learning how to use it without holding it in his hands.
"Damn, I'm tired..." Issei said. He was drenched in sweat as well. As a little blood.
Suddenly, Issei's stomach growled...
Well, it is expected... I haven't eaten in about a day. Issei thought.
(Hungry, partner? You should go out to eat... some of the food in this country is truly something to die for!) Ddraig spoke.
"Well, I guess my decision is made. I'll go get ready." Issei said as he went back to the elevator.
Issei went back to the seventh floor, and when the elevator opened, he was greeted by somebody unexpected.
In front of him, was a young girl with dark, blonde hair and Vibrant, violet eyes. She looked beautiful and had a voluptuous figure. Long legs and Big breasts.
Woah... who's this hottie? Issei thought.
(HAHA! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! DID THE BROKEN DRAGON JUST FIND ANOTHER LOVER?!) Ddraig roared.
Great red couldn't believe it either... He was surprised to another degree.
The woman glanced at Issei and started to speak.
"Oh... Might you be the host of Venuzdnor? My bother did tell me somebody was going to be staying here for a while." The woman spoke.
Issei didn't reply, rather, he just kept staring at her. He was basically observing every aspect of her body. She realized this and spoke.
"Oh, You like my body?" The woman asked. Snapping Issei out of his thoughts.
"AH! Wait, I'm sorry, I d-didn't mean to! I swear!" Issei said.
The woman could only giggle. Making Issei groan in shame.
"No need to worry, you're fine. You can call me Araksya." Araksya said.
"Oh. Alright, then Araksya... My name is Issei Hyoudou. It's nice to meet you." Issei spoke.
"Ufu~ Likewise, Issei. But can you tell me why you're here?" Araksya asked.
"Oh, I wanted to see Tristan. Do you know where he is by any chance?" Issei asked.
Tristan, Oh that's right... he gave him a fake name. Oh well. Araksya thought.
"Sorry, Tristan went out of Delsgade to get work done... If you want, I can leave a message for him." Araksya said.
"Oh alright, just tell him I'll be going out as well. I'll be back later today." Issei said.
"Oh, ok. I'll let him know." Araksya said.
"Thank you very much." Issei said as he left for the elevator.
Timeskip: 1 hour later.
Issei had finished his food and walked out of one of the most popular restaurants in the City. He felt a lot better now that he had eaten... but what now?
But for Ddraig, it was a little different.
(Partner, I'm sensing a disturbing amount of magical power from one of the mountains southwest of us.) Ddraig said.
(Seriously? are you sure it isn't Delsgade?) Issei asked.
(I'm sure it is not Delsgade. Delsgade isn't in the southwest part of this place. I'll tell you where to go, just equip your balance breaker.) Ddraig said.
(Yeah, Uhm... Ddraig, I'm kinda in a neutral part of the city, I can't really do that.) Issei said.
(Fuck! just get to an uncrowded spot!) Ddraig said.
Issei started to observe his surroundings and started running. He eventually found a dark alleyway with nobody in it.
You know what? It'll do. Issei thought as he ran through the alleyway.
The second he got there, he unfolded his wings. He had 3 sets of wings. It had a red color to it with Golden, semi-translucent wings.
A/N: Try imagining The Cardinal crimson Promotion wings, but with the same red outline and Golden particles falling from it.
Issei started to fly off, making sure he couldn't be seen, he flew just above the clouds.
Four minutes later...
Issei eventually made it to the location Ddraig was talking about.
It was a small church atop a mountain. It looked abandoned.
"Ddraig, Is that is?" Issei said as he was looking at the church.
"Yeah partner, there's no doubt about it." Ddraig said.
Issei flew even closer to the church, kicking down the two double doors leading into the church.
[BANG!]
Let's just say the view wasn't very pleasant to look at. There was a teenage girl with light grey hair reaching down to her back, hanging on a crucifix. It reminded Issei of Asia. But he put that aside. The girl seemed to be unconscious.
The girl seemed to be surrounded by hundreds of exorcists. All are wearing black trench coats with a hoodie on. As if they were trying not to have their identities revealed. They were all armed with pitchforks and daggers.
All of the exorcists turned their heads to the noise heard. All they saw is what seemed to be a shadow of a man wearing some sort of armor. The moonlight made it so they couldn't fully see the armor.
Issei didn't think twice. He summoned Ascalon and started Killing the exorcists one by one. It was a horrible sight.
"Ascalon!" Issei yelled.
"BLADE!" Ddraig roared.
Issei rammed through the crowd of exorcists, killing 3 or 2 with each step he took. You could say his training really paid off.
After a minute or 2, all of the exorcists were dead. However, one of the exorcists next to Issei, who was on the verge of death, wrapped his arm around Issei's legs and started to mutter.
"Who- who- are yo-" The man muttered.
Issei looked back at the man, who died while trying to speak. He then looked back up at the girl on the crucifix. Issei inspected her a bit closer and realized she was chained to the crucifix.
Issei put his hands on the chains, they were significantly weaker. He could tell, It was probably the fact that Issei killed the one who controlled the power of the chains.
With a little effort, he broke the chains, and the girl fell down, only to land in Issei's arms.
He walked to one of the benches and laid the girl down, he didn't know what to do with the girl. But death wasn't one of the things that would happen to her, that's for sure.
After a minute or so, the girl opened her eyes. Revealing the fact that she was Heterochromatic. She had one bright red eye and one bright blue eye.
The girl stared at the suit of armor in front of her, and eventually, she spoke.
"Uh, who are you?" The girl spoke.
She sounded no more than sixteen years old. The average age for a Highschool DxD character, no?
"I just saved you from a hundred or so exorcists, you owe me. Now tell me, why were they trying to kill you?" Issei asked.
The girl arched her head only to see a pile of dead bodies. She shivered a bit but kept her cool.
"Uh, it was because... I'm a descendant of somebody." The girl said.
Issei raised his eyebrow... of who?
"Of who?" Issei asked.
The girl stuttered a bit... As if she didn't want to reveal who it was.
"Anos... Voldigoad." The girl said.
Issei only raised his eyebrow in even more confusion... who is Anos Voldigoad?
But for somebody else in the gear, it was different.
"Wait... THE ANOS VOLDIGOAD?!" Great red spoke out loud in the gear.
"AHH! PLEASE, DON'T KILL ME! I'LL DO ANYTHING I SWEAR!" The girl yelled. She moved back a bit in fear.
"Calm down! We won't kill you." Issei said, calming the girl down.
Issei then looked at his right arm.
"Uh, Great red? Who is Anos Voldigoad?" Issei asked.
"Of course, you don't know. I'll explain. Anos Voldigoad was the first-ever Devil King. He was a man with Immeasurable power, he controlled the power of destruction. he was also a great friend of mine. That power earned him the title, The True Devil King of Destruction" Great red explained.
Issei was... Shocked, to say the least... He never knew of a man so powerful before. But Great red still had some things to say.
"But it is a little strange... As for the Voldigoad bloodline, Anos' blood is the king of destruction. The Voldigoad bloodline has always had trouble having children because their destructive sources are against birth. Death and destruction are the nourishment of the fetus. The closer the mother is to destruction, the better the environment for the birth of the child. The death of Anos' mother as she gave birth to Anos contributed to Anos' immense destructive power. Furthermore, Anos is a Lion of Destruction capable of destroying anything and everything in the known Universe. King of like Venuzdnor." Great red explained.
"So basically, she's a miracle..." Issei said.
"Yeah, to put it simply." Great red replied.
While the two were talking, the girl finally spoke.
"Hey, uh... I'm sorry for interrupting your conversation, but what is your name?" The girl asked as she stared at Issei.
Issei glanced back at the girl and started to speak.
"Ah, my apologies, - Deactivating his balance breaker - My name is Issei Hyoudou. What is Yours?"
The girl shuttered for a minute, not knowing how to reply... But she eventually did.
"My name? is...
End.
Yes, it's a cliffhanger.
