Disclaimer: I owned nothing.
Chapter 15
"What did you say!?"
Both of them shout to me with surprise voice, but that won't work. As I believe in Rias-chan's decision, I won't fall into neither your plot!
"You heard me. I won't take any of you two back to my Tower. My wives won't allow me to do that, and I'd rather listen to them."
"Lord Gremory! Are you sure? Here, look closer, closer..."
Velvet said while trying to show more of her skin to me, but it was useless.
I have graduate from being a virgin!
My sexual desires are not limit! But I know how to choose! My harem taught me that!
Basically the girls want me to be careful with others women, as I could be tricked, or took diseases from unsafe sexual activities with random women!
And they're all virgin by the way.
I couldn't have asked more from my harem.
"Lord Gremory? What about me? I can help you with my knowledge."
Trying plan B, once again, that won't work.
"Thank you for your intention, but I don't think I need it. You can continue on your road to help others.
Now please excuse me, I have a job to do."
I run out of the room quicker than the eyes can see, avoiding their further questions.
Right now, William need to be finished!
At the end of the hall, William is preparing some kind of ritual. What is he trying to do?
"Your end is here, William. For all the oppai you cheated, I don't know if you really cheat on them, but your pervert is enough to be punished!"
With the angry face, William retorts me while standing in the circle of his ritual.
"Huh! What's about you!? You are just as pervert as mine! Have a bunch of young girls with you every time!"
"How... How did you know!?"
Did this guy place some kind of secret observe devices in my Tower!? I need to double-check when I come back!
"The Wizard told me you dragon fool! Now with this power, I can do whatever I want with any women!"
The floor flash up under William. I can feel the energy's covering his body, with a nasty, rotten smell.
His body's getting bigger and bigger, twisting all angles, ripping all of his red clothes, one of the eyes becomes bigger while the other longer, his arms and legs get several times thicker, the fingers stretch out into skinny, tentacles like.
Soon, a huge body made of rotten flesh appears. It's like made of zombies, the body is ugly with distorted colors, dull red, orange, yellow like flesh breathing in and out.
This big lump of rotten meat troll, former William, scream out inhuman voice.
"GE GE GEEE! FEAR ME! FEAR AND OBEY ME!
I WILL EAT EVERY SINGLE OF FEMALE IN THIS WORLD!"
This guy, he has abandoned his humanity to achieve such unholy power. And he threaten my harem!
"I won't let you touch them!"
[Boost]!
"Eat this!"
I shoot out my [Drake's Bullet], this time I don't need to limit my power, unlike many previous circumstance, I won't hold back when fighting this guy!
I cannot let this guy run out of this place, he must be destroyed!
KABOOM!
...
Eh?
...
[Partner? Your [Drake's Bullet] is the upgrade version of [Dragon Shot], right?]
Yes.
[You forgot that even without [Boost], your default power can destroy mountain with ease? And that guy with a strange ritual upgrade into a big undead can never stand your attack, have I said this world enemies are too weak for you?]
Sorry Ddraig.
[The stronger you are, the better it is. But without fully control, you're just wasting your power.]
Okay okay, I got it Ddraig. I destroyed a part of stadium when I was in my promotion test. I will try to analyze my opponents better.
The scene after my [Drake's Bullet] detonated is... not so nice. A huge hole, very huge hole can be seen from here. A couple of mountains stood in range of my [Drake's Bullet] also have a big hole on them, I hope there were no one on those.
Hm, look like William kept his [Cronsal] on his body, now I can see it on the ground, flashing toward my eyes.
Ddraig, should I take it now? Would I be out of control?
[Partner, your body is ready.]
Great, stepping closer to the crystal, I pick it up and immediately, I can feel it's fusing with me.
[So this is the power you said, very interesting.]
A few minutes passed, I can feel my body is now stronger, and now my telepathy connection with Rias-chan, Asia-chan, Akeno-chan and Xenovia-chan.
Let's test this thing.
'Xenovia-chan, can you hear me?'
'Ise? Is that you? But you're not here! I can't see where you are!'
'No Xenovia-chan, it's our telepathy connection. Tell me, how was the Understreet?'
'I see. There weren't much things down here. A bunch of zombies, some armor skeletons, a big snake... I found a smelter, too. Couldn't understand why they would leave a thing like that down here.'
'Alright, return to the Tower after you're done, okay? I think we will have a discussion meeting tonight.'
With the information about the Second Overlord, we will need a plan to counter him, as I fear he has some tricks to deal with me when we meet.
I wonder my mind about Koneko-chan and Ravel-san. The last time I told them to destroy the Succubus status, don't know if they have done that.
Anyway, I will investigate the Evernight forest now. After all, we need to defeat the heroes as soon as possible.
The [Waypoint] took me to the last place in Evernight forest Irina-chan and Xenovia-chan were.
This forest is a little bit creepy, there are collapsed statues, walls, bricks, dead trees every where.
"Master, there is a sacred grove over there, and it's the only source of pure magic that haven't tainted by the nightmare."
"Lead me there."
The [Ryu-Kunoichi] informed me. That's right, they were here before Xenovia-chan took them back.
Then I see it. A single, evergreen tree stood its glory between this nightmare, the ground around it also lively, not a single creepy feeling could be felt from it.
"Stranger, who are you?"
Hm?
A floating elf, his eyes are hollow-like, I can't feel a living sign from him, is he alive?
"I am Lord Issei Hyoudou Gremory, may I ask you how that tree survive the nightmare came from Oberon?"
"The pure magic, the old years of unfading and blessing from The Mother Goddess have saved the Sacred Grove from the whims of Oberon."
I see, so indeed there are magic inside that tree.
I got an ideal!
Making the [Boosted Gear] appears and wait for one minute worth of [Boost], I order the [Ryu-Kunoichi] to cut down the roots connected to Oberon.
10 minute later.
"Master, we have cut down five of six roots, the last one was in the temple, which we didn't act on our own decision."
"Good job leaving the temple, I think we shouldn't enter it without the Elves' permission."
Now, I will execute my plan!
[Transfer]!
Yes, I transfer my [Boost] into the tree, soon, the power of the Sacred Grove pushes back the corruption, the land now is lively again, the trees are no longer dead, and the creepy feeling is fading so quick.
This should be enough, more and the tree will be break because of the sudden sheer power it got.
"Who!? Who has awaken me!?"
Look like Oberon is awaken, let's pay him a visit.
Oberon, former Elf hero, now his lower body and hands are stuck into the ground and become roots and branches.
"Who are you!? You are here to destroy my homeland!? The land told me that! I have once I deserted my people, my forest, and I have been punished. I will not desert them again!"
Then from the ground, several roots come out and attack us.
Dodging those roots, I shout to Oberon.
"Open your eyes! The Wizard has lied to you! You have fallen, but doesn't mean you can't be saved. Open your eyes, Oberon!"
"No! I will kill you!"
Then the skull beasts come out, but the [Ryu-Kunoichi] put them down faster than they can spawn.
"What... What were these? My forest? No, this can't be... My forest!"
"Let it go, Oberon. Let the crystal go! You must not hold it longer!"
"The crystal... Right, I remember! When the crystal was in my hand, I felt sleepy and fatigue all the time!"
With great effort, Oberon dropped the [Cronsal] from his body, the [Ryu-Kunoichi], with their skill, carefully warp the crystal without actually touching it.
"Agh! Agh! Stranger, the roots are eating me! Kill me, kill me now!"
"I won't do that."
[Boost]!
Rias-chan told me not to kill Oberon, he can be saved, if I use my [Boosted Gear] on him, he can have enough power to push back the corruption.
[Transfer]!
"Huh? This, this power?"
"Use it Oberon, use your power to push back and destroy the nightmares that corrupted your forest!"
"ARG! ARG! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
A clash between the nightmares and Oberon, one try to eat its host, one try to push them out. Soon, Oberon's body covers in light.
Then, the nightmares are finally vanquish, leave their victim back on the ground, and a hole behind where Oberon was be.
"Stranger, thanks, thank you, for saving my soul, my forest."
And then, his body turns into light particles, his soul now floating, with a green, leather armor.
So this is the form Elves take after their death?
"Stranger, words may not enough to show my gratitude. But the trees, the trees of our forest will sing your praises."
"Lord Oberon, you can call me Lord Gremory, and please excuse me for using such rude way to save you."
"Lord Gremory, if not for your attempt then not even my soul can be here anymore-"
"Lord Oberon! The statue, the Mother Goddess statue is lost!"
"What!? How... How can that possible!?"
"I don't know, but the watchers reported they didn't see it on the place!"
Hm, the Mother Goddess statue? So they worship some kind of idol.
After some minutes to recover from the shock and thinking, Oberon said to me.
"Lord Gremory, with this body of mine, I cannot go pursue the thief, so please, once again, help us to locate the Mother Goddess statue, we can't lose her.
Also, some of our brothers and sisters still being enslaved by the Dwarf. Please save them, they're our last kin, without them, we will be forgotten forever in this world.
I humbly bow down my head to ask you for your help, Lord Gremory, please forgive me for my selfish. The entire Elves race will be in your debt for eternity."
I see, so I need to save the Elves race and find the Mother Goddess statue back for them?
"Lord Oberon, I will do what I must do. Now, farewell, I will try my best to help you and your race."
"You have our thanks, Lord Gremory.
For now I need to rebuild our homeland."
I order the some of the [Ryu-Kunoichi] to scout the Dwarf homeland. Now I will return to the Tower, tonight we will have a discussion for future matters.
The Dragon Tower.
"Ophis, you're full?"
She, the Dragon-God, doesn't answer me like usual, just a head shake.
Did anyone tell her about the girl's diet?
But good child shouldn't picky in food!
…
Why I still treating the Dragon-God like a child?
After dinner, we're all assemble at the library.
Rias-chan, with her report paper in hand, announces to everyone:
"Till last month, we were new to this world, almost no supplies, no any kind of magic we can use without Ise-kun's help, but, today, we have a Tower built accustom to our taste, a field to run agriculture, a lumber, mining camp to provide material, a castle welcome our future guests. All thanks to Ise-kun's dragon heritage."
That made me embarrassed Rias-chan.
But all of these are important to rebuild the dragon land.
"Today, Ise-kun encountered the daughters of the Second Overlord, from Ise-kun's "special way" of extracting information-"
Koneko-chan, please stop glaring at me, it's my best solution to gain information without alarming the enemies!
"-still alive. And his plan, which basically try to infiltrate our Tower via teleport warp point, regain control of the Minions, take the [Cronsal], perform some way to pull his strings on Ise-kun and turn him into his puppet."
All the girls are shocked and grasped at Rias-chan's words.
Hey, it's not bad everyone, we know his plan now.
"Of course, we will not allow this to happen! Ise-kun is our love! We will give him to no one!"
"YES!"
Huh!? The girls shouted with their heart! Except for Rossweisse-san and Ophis.
It must be relative to the fact that no adults are here to manage and watch us, the girls are more and more daring each day.
With that said, Rias-chan gives each of us list of things need to do. Before leaving, I have a word with Koneko-chan and Ravel-san.
"Have you two destroy the Succubus statue? I fought some of them before confronting William."
"Ise-senpai/Ise-sama, please remember, there's many things you shouldn't repeat and ask the women."
Co-Cold! What have I done to receive such treatment!? I just want to make sure our safety!
They must have destroyed in the cruelest way, because the Succubus Queen had insulted them in the way no redemption can be made.
I shouldn't worry about it?
Anyway, I need to go wash my clothes. After the day Rias-chan recovered her magic, she designed a noble suit for me, which has the Gremory crest, along with black and gold trims, she told me to wear it every time I go out. In combat, I make part of [Scale Mail] appear, to prevent the clothes from tearing off or unusable.
And if I want to wash it using magic, I need to learn, Rias-chan foreseen the scenario and already told the [Magician Drags] not to help me. I guess even with great power, you still need to do housework, eh?
"Lord Issei, can I have some time with you?"
"Vorexia-san? What is it?"
"I would like to talk in private."
"Okay."
I follow her to her personal room.
"Lord Issei, the Second Overlord is still alive, things won't get in our way if he's still out there."
"I know, he has some tricks up his sleeves."
I'm not good against wizard enemy type. It's true that dragon scales resist magic, but you never know what kind of spells they would use when fighting you.
"I suggest we should get the North Wyrm first."
"North Wyrm? You mean Ichorge's daughter?"
The one who told us to save his daughter.
"Yes. With the help comes from another dragon, I think we can deal with the Second Overlord more easy."
This is a very good idea. But right now we have many matters to do first.
"Vorexia-san, for that, I'll think about it later."
It's not like I don't want to save her, but the thing is, we don't know how strong Ichorge's daughter is, or the Second Overlord can make her as his puppet.
It's quite risky to save her at the moment. Despite the supplies they have, the dragon apples, the treasure...
And maybe because she is a dragon? So Vorexia-san wanted to save one of her kin as soon as possible?
"I see. Please be hurry."
Anyway, let's get back to the washing!
"Master, you have letter."
"Whoa! Don't suddenly appear like that!"
"But I'm suppose to be a shinobi, Master! Stealth is my best point!"
"Sorry, um, I will take the letter, you can leave now."
I shouldn't be surprise, that makes me look like a chicken, after all they're my [Drags].
Now, who would write me letters.
Hm, is it... Fumiko Kurosora?
"..."
Hm...
I surrender.
I don't understand what she write except for the "Thank you" part.
I'm such an idiot, I ought to learn more. For a girl like Fumiko to outsmart me in this.
I'm an idiot! A muscle idiot!
"Please take this to Rias."
"Yes, Master."
The [Ryu-Kunoichi] disappeared after received the letter from me.
Now I have a clothes to wash, and no one interrupt me!
"Ise-san? What are you doing?"
GRAAA!
"Oh, it's you Asia-chan. I'm washing my clothes."
That was close! I almost shouted to Asia-chan!
"Let me help you Ise-san."
"No, I am the one who must wash it. I need to learn to do housework too you know."
"Um, then, can I sit next to you?"
"It's okay."
…
"Ise-san."
"What is it?"
My hands are still full of magic soap, seriously, this is hard to wash!
I prefer normal clothes, a washing machine is okay too!
"I... I'm in debt in you."
"What? No, how can you in debt with me Asia-chan?"
"I was only a nun, with the Sacred Gear from God, I was glad that I could help people, but in return, I had no friends.
Until I met you, my life was a gray painting of sorority.
Then you came and paint the golden and scarlet on my life.
Then you leaded more people to paint on my life. Now it's a rainbow picture.
I'm happy that I finally have a family who love me as I love them."
"Asia-chan..."
"And now I'm your wife. God must have heard my pray, even though he is no more.
I realize sometimes I'm just a simply jealous girl who want Ise-san's eyes only look at me, even though that was my unconsciously doing.
Did I trouble you?"
"No! Asia-chan never troubles me or anyone.
Asia-chan, do you know that everyone is healed when they talk to you, your sheer aura is enough to remove any fatigue. Don't lower yourself like that."
"Ise-san..."
"I love you okay? Not just me but everyone in Gremory family too."
We have a kiss afterward, but Asia-chan still insisted to help me with my washing.
I thought this is just like a training plus vacation, nothing big enough to be a challenge to me, to us.
...
I was wrong.
