KNOCK KNOCK.

The sound echoed slightly in the wide hallways behind them. With Rias and Akeno and Xenovia in the front, Kiba and Issei behind them, they stepped into the room. Gasper and Koneko stayed behind in the Occult Club's homeroom.

The eyes turned towards them. Issei looked sideways, noticing Sirzechs and Grayfia. He gave them a small bow, as Sirzechs nodded. And then he noticed another woman with black hair. Her hair was decorated by colorful pink bows.

Her lips curled into a smile when she noticed Issei. A second later, she winked at left Issei feeling quite bewildered and unorganized.

Behind her, the Council president and her pieces were standing.

To the side was a man with Golden Wings and a halo... Issei didn't even need to guess it was Michael, the fake god and his assistant. A rather bountiful, beautiful blond haired women.

His gaze lingered upon Michael, as their eyes met. Issei couldn't tell what expression he was making.

Next, was Azazel. This time he was dressed seriously, unlike the previous encounters with him wearing a yukata. He waved towards Issei.

Issei saluted to him in a relaxed manner, and then his eyes met Vali's. He was leaning against a wall, his arms crossed on his chest and an arrogant expression on his face.

Issei smiled at him with narrow eyes.

''..Now then.'' – Sirzechs began speaking. –''..Seeing as how everyone is finally here, let us begin the meeting.''

''First, let's acknowledge that god doesn't exist anymore.'' – Sirzechs continued.

The meeting began like that. They talked about many things, especially taking attention about god, but that passed quickly once they acknowledged the fact that Michael was a good replacement.

''..Now then, the matter of Kokabiel.'' – Micheal began.

''Ah, yes.'' – Sirzechs nodded. –''Rias, why don't you tell us about it.''

''Of course.'' – She responded, in a stoic way, most likely because of the atmosphere. –''..Kokabiel planned to attack with the stolen Holy swords, but when confronted with one of them, my knight was able to defeat him. Then, with the help of my pawn, they got information from him and attacked Kokabiel at his base of operations. After a short battle with my pawn, and the help of Xenovia, now my other knight, he was defeated and killed by my pawn.''

''..There is something I want to know.'' – Michael began to talk. –''..You see, I was surprised to hear Kokabiel, one who survived the war, to be defeated so easily, so I did some research….and came up with this. ''Issei Hyoudou'' was a simple kid who was marked as kidnapped..but his alias, ''Ddraig''..is a terrorist, searched for in more than 40 countries..''

Everyones eyes turned towards Issei who simply..smiled.

''..I guess what I am asking, what the hell were you thinking with this, Sirzechs.'' – Michael finished his train of thought.

''Nothing you are insinuating. Issei was strayed off his path and drugged, webbed into helping terrorists..he isn't one at heart. And I am making sure he stays true to his words.''

The silence after Sirzechs was disturbed by the laughter of Azazel. He wiped a tear of his cheek as his laughter stopped. –''Sirzechs, do you really know nothing of the man you got to protect your own sister?''

''..''

''He was webbed into helping terrorist a long time ago…but what about now? He spent 3 years a midst terrorists, helping them, learning how to be one and eventually, becoming one. Do you really think you can control this man?''

Issei's eyes met Sirzechs.

''..Might I?'' – Issei asked.

Sirzechs nodded.

''What about you, Azazel?'' – He asked, with a wide grin. –''Can you control your own underlings? For example, Kokabiel?''

''..Kokabiel was a different case from you.'' – He shrugged it off, looking annoyed.

''But that's wrong.'' – Issei gestured with his hands. –''We all are people. We can do whatever we want. No one can truly control anyone.''

''..That's true.''

''But don't worry, everyone. I made a deal with Sirzechs and I promised to keep it. I don't go back on promises.''

''..I trust this issue is done now?'' – Sirzechs asked, looking Azazel and Micheal in the eyes.

After seeing them nod, he continued the talk of peace treaty. The time they spent grew in circles and they talked deeper and deeper into the issue. Serious talk turned into something trivial and sideways and around, in the end, landing on serious again.

He chuckled. –''This is the funny part. You guys think I don't want peace? Of course, I want it. But it seems like you don't trust me.''

''That's true."

''That's right."

''That's exactly it "

The three answered, together with Serafall, who had kept quit while the discussion was on Issei. She was a lot more playful than Issei, or everyone who didn't know her, would expect.

''..I've lost a lot in the war as well, you know...I just want to be able to relax and look after my sacred gear research in peace.''

''What about Vali then?''

''What about him?'' – Azazel answered, in an annoyed tone. –''I took him under my wings from the good will of my heart, not because I needed someone strong to raise hell, jeez.''

''..Let's do it then, shall we?'' – Micheal spoke up, with a deep smile.

''..Yeah.''

''Of course!~''

''..For a brighter future, for us to live together..in peace.''

A document was span around the table as they signed it..and it was then that it happened.

''Something is off.'' – Issei spoke, with his arms crossed on his chest.

''So you noticed it as well?'' – Vali answered with a smirk.

''..Step away from the windows.'' – Issei looked sideways to the other people in the room.

Magic attacks hit the every single centimeter of the New school building – the place they were standing in, but Azazel simply stepped in front of the window, looking outside with a bored expression.

''..They can't touch us. Our combined power is guarding this place…but it means we are stuck inside the territory of this school.''

Issei moved closer to him and observed the attackers. They unending wave of attackers were all dressed the same.

''..Terrorists.''

''So I thought.'' –Azazel nodded. –''What shall we do?''

''Seeing as how we can't leave, we should wait for the final boss to show up.''

Sirzechs turned to Rias, who seemed disturbed.

''What's wrong?''

''..I'm worried about Gasper and Koneko.''

Before Sirzechs could respond, Issei did it in his stead.

''Don't worry about them. These guys are weak..and Koneko is strong. They don't stand a chance.'' – Issei turned back to Azazel. –''..These guys, who are they?''

''..Khaos Brigade.''

''..I see.'' – Issei nodded, his expression was more serious than usually. He could only hope that Cao Cao wouldn't show up.

''..Have you heard of them?''

''Yes. These guys are bad news. But that's all I know. Do you know anything more?''

''A bit. They have several powerful longinus users, as well many other simple sacred gear users…And their leader, is supposedly…the infinity dragon.''

Shock spread out the room.

''..Why would she be behind terrorists? Ophis…wasn't like that.''

''..She?'' – Azazel stuttered. –''..No wait, a minute! You've met Ophis?''

''..Yeah.'' – Issei touched his face with his palm. –''It happened once. I was out of my mind that time, but I remember some things about her…She was pure..Her power was unmatched…she radiated the aura of innocence. Something is wrong, if she is helping them.''

As Issei finished what he was talking about, a big magic circle appeared by his feet. Sirzechs quickly commanded Rias.

''Reverse summon your rook, leave only Issei with us!'' – He spoke, in a rather harsh tone. –''Make sure Gasper is safe.''

''Y-yes, Brother!'' - She stuttered slightly and got to summoning herself and the rest of the peerage to her rook piece.

Sirzechs turned to Issei. –''Go outside and raise havoc. It will take of the attention from Rias.''

''..Fine.'' – Issei spoke, as he opened the window and simply jumped down.

The magic attacks stopped in that instant.

''That's Ddraig!'' – A rugged voice in front of him called. It was a man in a coat. He was tall and muscular. Suddenly, many more summoning circles appeared.

They held swords, sacred gears, and various other weapons.

Issei touched his shoulders and rotated it, cracking it. ''..Ara ara.'' – He spoke, in a calm tone. –''You actually have a surprise party ready for me? I'm flattered.''

''Tales of you travel around..Bloodhound the second, Berserker, Ddraig…or Issei Hyoudou.'' – The man smirked. –''No matter what name was used in those descriptions, it was always you..who raised the most havoc.''

Issei closed his eyes and exhaled. He needed to calm down. He inhaled deeply, still repeating ''calm down'' inside his head.

As his eyes quickly opened, his arm moved on reflex.

He caught the foot flying forward him. He pulled it forwards while he span around, and kicked out the other foot of the attacker.

With a simple flick of his wrist, the attacker was on his back, and with a simple jab to the throat, he would suffocate.

As Issei got up, he stepped sideways, avoiding a sword that was going for his head. He quickly tilted his head sideways, avoiding a different fist just in time.

And in this ambient silence Issei's eyebrows furrowed as he, with a grunt pushed his fist into the attacker's stomach.

He was thrown sideways, spewing blood from his nose and mouth. He landed into another attacker, both of them being smashed towards the ground.

Issei stopped.

Two attackers, one from behind, one from the front.

Issei kicked off towards the front attacker with his shoulder in the front. The enemy was ready for a heavy attack as he pulled his fists in front of his face.

But that didn't happen.

Issei sidestepped right as the enemy behind him attacked. The second attacked slashed down the first one and in the confusion of what he did he was kicked in the jaw, of course, making him fly backwards.

''AAAAAAAAAH!'' - With a loud shout, a man with a sword slashed downwards at Issei.

He caught the attackers wrist and pushed his wrists towards the attacker. The redirected sword simply slid into the attackers neck.

There was a split second that Issei could rest. He looked around. The ring of enemies was coming closer to him. That was the second he knew this would take a while.

Seconds seemed like minutes as Issei danced across the battlefield dodging, deflecting and fooling enemies.

Calmly and silently.

Above him was Vali, destroying the never ending waves of magicians in his balance breaker.

..

From the front, a bright blue light shone, simply turning the enemies to dust. Issei's eyes landed on the grinning Kiba. Behind him was Akeno with a magic barrier and in said barrier was Rias and Koneko, who was carrying Gasper in a princess-style. In the end, Xenovia was swinging her Durandal.

Issei kicked away another attacker and quickly moved towards them.

He looked upwards, seeing Azazel fighting a dark skinned woman in a purple low cut dress.

''Yo.'' – Issei spoke to Kiba. –''How are you guys?''

''We are good. They wanted to use Gasper's powers, but fortunately Koneko was there to protect him.'' – He answered as he swung the sword around.

''Then why is he knocked out?''

''Apparently he didn't want to get protected by a girl so he used his powers, helping Koneko, but the stress on his mind was too much.''

''..I see.'' – Issei responded, as his arm twitched. Pulsed.

His eyes jerked upwards, they only saw Azazel shine in a bright gold light.

''BALANCE BREAK!'' – He shouted.

The godly gold light shone even brighter as an armor appeared on Azazels body, and in his hand – a golden spear.

Issei sidestepped on reflex, as he grabbed another attackers neck from behind and bent it in an impossible angle.

His eyes returned to the scene of Azazel.

The woman's face was disfigured and rabid. Azazel frowned.

''It's time to put you down.'' – He said, as he spun the spear around and threw it at her.

A single scream didn't have enough time to escape her mouth, as she disintegrated into dust.

With their leaders dead, the few remaining ground troops retreated and teleported away.

Issei scoffed at Azazel.

''What, kid?'' – He asked, looking at Issei trough purple shinning eyes.

''What the hell is that?''

''Oh, do you mean this armor? It's an artificial sacred gear I created. I made a contract with Fanrir, a dragon king-''

Azazel's sentence was cut short as he was flung into the ground, creating a large crater.

He got up, and with a chuckle began to speak. –''..I should have known…Vali.''

Issei turned towards Vali, clad in white armor. He was floating above them with his arms crossed on his chest. Issei simply knew, under the helmet, he had an arrogant expression.

''..It was boring with you, Azazel.''

''You always wanted to fight, didn't you?'' – Azazel sighed. –''I guess it was about time. So, what will you do now?''

''I will fight Issei Hyoudou.''

''..The duel of red and white…'' –Azazel smirked. –''..Do you remember what I told you about Issei? There is no turning back if you do this.''

''I'm sure of this.'' – Vali spoke, his voice turning louder. –''I WANT TO FIGHT YOU, HYOUDOU!''

Issei nodded, as he stepped further, but he was stopped by Azazel. –''..There's something you need to know.''

Issei turned to Azazel.

''This man's real surname is Lucifer…As in, he has the blood of Lucifer's grandkid in him.''

Vali snickered and showed off his 12 devil wings.

''..Oh god.'' – Micheal spoke, his breath was taken away.

''Indeed. I am the grandkid of a Lucifer and I was born with the Dividing gear in me..The word miracle is made to define me.'' – He looked downwards to Issei, his devil wings dissolving. –''..So, Hyoudou..Do you think you have even a sliver of a chance of defeating me?''

Issei simply cracked his neck. His eyes were covered by his messy hair, as he spoke, seemingly, to himself.

''..Draig.''

[Yes, partner?]

''Let me do as I wish.''

[That's..dangerous.]

''Please..partner.''

A long silence, as Issei stood silent.

[Fine.]

''..Sirzechs..step back.'' – Issei whispered.

He stepped forward. After a few steps, the dark-clothed Issei disappeared from sight.

A blinding red light, as a deep voice rebounded across the sky.

[WELSH DRAGON OVERBOOSTER]

Issei, clad in his red armor, shot out of a sea of red dust, a green trail in his wake.

A kick, that Vali dodged to his left.

He countered it with his right arm, but was blocked by the heavy looking red gauntlet. A loud cracking noise as Issei grabbed his arm. Vali's gauntlet cracked under pressure.

''You!-'' – Vali shouted, as he punched with his free hand, but it was slapped away by Issei's elbow.

Issei headbutted him, shattering Vali's helmet and cracking his own. Vali was forced backwards from the force and Issei's boosters exploded as he was thrown forwards, with his arm extended.

Vali recovered and with a single flap of his wings he propelled higher into the air, dodging Issei's strike.

''I should have known you would be so proficient at hand to hand.'' – Vali calmly stated. –''..What about this?''

Suddenly, hundreds of magic circles appeared behind him and with a roar they rained down on Issei.

He scoffed and inhaled deeply.

[BOOST]

A wave of flames shot out from Issei's mouth, swallowing the attacks that would hit Issei. Issei was invisible behind the wave of flames, but Vali wasn't stupid.

He span around and kicked Issei in the chest, throwing him backwards into one of the school buildings.

''It won't be as easy as you think.'' – Vali chuckled, looking down at Issei. –''So become serious, or I'll really kill you, Hyoudou.''

Issei kicked a piece of rubble off him as he got up. ''It was worth a try.''

Vali landed on the ground. Issei smirked and jumped off the building. He cracked his neck as Vali spoke again. ''So far I don't see why there are so much rumors about you.''

Issei's smirk, under his armor, went unnoticed.

[BOOST BOOST BOOOST]

Issei was enveloped in a green light as he kicked off and charged Vali.

''..Something is off..'' – Meanwhile, Azazel scratched his chin.

''What do you mean?'' – Kiba asked, who was also watching from inside a magical barrier.

''..Ah..There it is.''

Vali also kicked off towards Issei, his wings giving off an eerie blue glow.

As their bodies were close to each other, Issei slid his foot over the ground as his arm extended like a spring towards Vali's face.

..But in that second, Vali whispered. ''You lost.''

Black and white. Time stopped.

[HALF DIMENSION]

A voice from Vali's side. Issei felt a excruciating pain in his chest, as he stumbled forwards. In that moment, the power in him crumbled to dust, together with his armor.

Vali's fist connected with Issei's stomach, as he kicked off the ground and pushed forward.

Issei was thrown backwards, as his limp, ragdoll like body crashed trough the old school building

''Issei!'' – Koneko shouted, as her arm was caught by Kiba.

''..Don't.'' – Kiba spoke, simply knowing that Koneko wanted to help Issei. But the simple fact was that she couldn't.

''Bloodhound…berserker? HAHAHAHA!'' – Vali laughed, as he walked towards the crumpled Issei. ''..And here I thought I would get a real fight. Ahhh..pathetic..disgusting.''

Issei, who was now lying on his face, twitched at the mention of the word ''disgusting''.

He slowly got up, in a ghoulish way. His shoulder was dislocated, but with a simply jerk of a shoulder, it popped back into place.

''..I tried..I really tried.'' – He muttered. –''…But being calm doesn't suit me.''

''..What?'' – Vali spat out , confused.

Issei stepped forward and began to cough up blood. His whole body jerked, as he touched his stomach.

''..Shit..'' – He muttered again.

The ground began to shake and dust began to raise around Issei.

''LET'S GO MOTHERFUCKER!'' – He shouted, as the same blinding light enveloped him.

[BOOOST BOOOST BOOOST BOOOST BOOOST BOOOST]

The pure pressure destroyed everything in sight. Sirzechs barrier cracked.

In a single blink of Vali's eyes, Issei was right into his face. Vali backed away, but it was no use. Issei grabbed his hair, that was exposed because of the previous headbutt, and kneed him in the face.

Vali tried to defend himself, but he was outmatched In close range. Issei kneed him in the face again, letting his hair go and punched him in the jaw.

Vali stumbled backwards, as he felt a sharp pain in his chest. His armor now held a spiderweb like pattern.

Issei didn't stop and continued to attack, not letting Vali recover. A kick In the shin, and elbow to the forehead.

Vali was thrown backwards by a roundhouse kick. Issei quickly caught him by the neck and held him in the air.

''…How does it feel?'' – Issei spoke, as Vali spat blood in his face.

''GET OFF ME!''

Vali suddenly kicked at Issei, who let him go.

[DIVIDE]

The previous pain, but Issei endured,however, he wasn't ready for the next attack.

Vali kicked Isse in the chest and he quickly covered the gap between them, trying to get another blow in while Issei was confused.

[BOOST]

Issei redirected Vali's attack to the side as he span around and kicked him in the side.

Vali was thrown sideways, and his flight ended against a building.

[BOOOST BOOOST BOOOST]

Ddraig roared, as Issei flashed towards Vali, with a giant grin hidden behind the mask.

''..Goodbye.'' – Issei muttered, as his fist reached Vali's head.

Something crashed. Sometimes was destroyed to pieces.

Sparks flew, as Issei's fist was blocked by a spear.

The eerie red glow disappeared from sight..and the reason was simple. The spear's user had destroyed the barrier covering Kuoh.

Issei jumped backwards and as he landed, he felt an extraordinary amount of pressure. A pressure he felt only once in his life. It was back when he saw that spear pointed at him.

''..Cao Cao.'' – Issei growled, trying not to shake from the pure pressure.

''..Indeed, kid.'' – He spoke, as he span his spear around. His black hair were swept back and he had a red belt tied around his waist. Other than that, he wore a Chinese martial arts uniform. –''..I saw your fight with the Phenex.''

''..'' – Issei didn't respond as he tried to fend off the oncoming feeling of dread coming from Cao Cao's spear.

''..Back before, when I fought your teacher…I felt alive. She was strong. The way she fought was solemn. For a long time, I wanted to fight her again..but the next thing I find out is that she is dead…and for what cause? For you?''

''..Yeah.'' – Issei simply responded. –''She died because of me. She died so I could live.''

''..What a letdown. She wasted her life for you?''

''…To this day, I regret being weak.'' – Issei looked upwards, through the clouds, a weak ray of orange light hit his armor. –''But it was her decision to let me live. AND I WILL.''

Issei dashed to the side, dodging a ray of light, but it was futile.

Before his legs touched the ground he felt a blow to his stomach. There was Cao Cao, holding his spear backwards.

Issei's armor shattered into dust, as he staggered backwards. There was a hole in his shirt and a burn mark on his lower abdomen.

The world turned upside down as Cao Cao stepped forwards.

Issei, trough the pain, reached downwards to his boot, and blocked the next strike with his karambit knife.

Another swipe of the spear and the knife was thrown out of his hands.

Issei stumbled again, throwing his head backwards, as a way to dodge a strike, but blood splattered from a straight cut into his face. As his world blurred and he fell onto his back, the last thing Issei saw trough his dilated eyes were Sirzech's crimson hair.

''..You must be Cao Cao, then?'' – Sirzechs calmly spoke, as he blocked the spear with his boot. –''I am the devil.''

''Nice to meet you.'' –Cao Cao responded and brought back his spear.

''..I don't know why you are here, but I will not let you kill him.'' – Sirzechs narrowed his eyes.

'''..I came to observe how he has grown.'' – Cao Cao made a ''che'' sound with his mouth.-''..But I'm disappointed.''

Cao Cao turned around, spinning his spear around and sliding it between his red belt. He threw the unconscious Vali over his shoulder, but before disappearing, turned to face Sirzechs once again.

''..Tell him…'' - Cao Cao spoke slowly, as if trying to figure how to word it correctly. -''..nevermind.''

He disappeared after a simple gesture of his hand. Koneko quickly moved over to Issei who was covered in bruises and his own blood.

''Don't worry, white-haired catgirl, he will be alright. He was simply knocked in the stomach pretty hard.''

''..but it was a slight jab.'' – Akeno objected.

''..That spear..Xenovia, you felt it, didn't you?''

''Yes.''

''..Brother..that was the..''

''Yes.'' – Sirzechs responded to Rias. –''It was the True Longinus. The strongest sacred gear.''

''..What?'' – Kiba responded, bewildered.

''..It's the spear that killed god.'' – Koneko simply stated.

''..How did you know that?'' - Micheal asked her.

''Issei told me.''

''..I see.'' – Azazel responded. –''They did seem to know each other. ''

''..Could you please get some help for Issei?'' – Rias spoke up.

''Oh, right.'' – Sirzechs chuckled while he scratched the backside of his chest.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

Issei flickered his eyes, warding off the blurriness. The familiar beeping sound of the machine that made sure wasn't dead brought back memories.

His muscle hurt, but that wasn't the painful part. On the slightest movement there was a stabbing sensation in his lower abdomen.

With a growl, Issei got up in a sitting position. Judging from the dusky room, it was night, and he knew he was correct when he saw the half-moon in the nights sky.

He looked downwards, only then noticing the fact that his left eye was covered by bandages. He ripped it off, throwing the bandage away.

He could see from both eyes…and he exhaled, because frankly – he was glad that he wasn't blind in one eye.

Suddenly, a black-haired women opened the door to his room. She was dressed in black skinny jeans, a black free-flowing tanktop, simple sneakers and her black hair was let out, hanging over her shoulders, with a long bang flowing downwards just between her eyebrows.

Her eyes met Issei's. She tilted her head back and smiled.

''You look like shit.''

Issei snickered. –''On the other hand, you look great, Kuroka.''

She grinned, showing her teeth. –''I always do~''

Issei nodded, as he ripped the wires connected to him and got up from his bed. The machine flatlined. The beeping sound turned into a nonstop sound.

He got up. At least, he tried to. He stumbled forwards as Kuroka caught him in a hug. Issei exhaled and dropped his head on her chest.

''..This is the greatest.'' – He said, with his voice muffled by Kuroka's chest.

Kuroka meowed. She moved her slender hand on Issei's hair and ruffled it.

''There..There..'' – She said, in a soothing voice. –''You did good.''

Issei raised his head, unwillingly. – ''But I didn't. I got destroyed by Cao Cao.''

''You defeated Vali. '' – She went silent for a while. –''I'm just glad you are alive.''

Kuroka slid her hand downwards trough his hair and touched his newly acquired scar.

''..Is it that bad?''

Kuroka held a pokerface for a while, as If trying to figure out what to say to not sound mean.

''It suits you.'' – She said, raising her eyebrows.

''..Thank you.'' – Issei said, with an ironic expression in his voice. Kuroka showed him her tongue. Issei waved away the feeling of wanting to snatch it with his mouth.

''C'mon, let's get out of here.'' – Issei sighed. –''I'm getting tired of standing here in my boxers.''

''But I'm not done looking at you in your boxers.'' – Kuroka said, in an alluring tone. –''Besides, you have a lot of bandages, so you aren't exactly almost naked.''

Issei chuckled, looking downwards at himself. The bandages were especially wide around his waist.

''Does it hurt?'' – Kuroka asked, sounding slightly worried.

Issei noted how cute she was. –''Like hell. That spear is one scary thing.''

He went silent for a while. –''I didn't even get to try and match it with my own.''

''..That would have ended badly.'' – She said, as she poked Issei's abs.

''Ouch!'' – He exclaimed. –''It hurts, woman!''

They both let out a slight chuckle.

''Why aren't there any nurses crashing into my room by now? On the monitor I flatlined. I'm dead.''

''The nurses are having really nice dreams.''

Issei started to laugh.

''Shall we go?'' – Kuroka asked. Issei nodded and wrapped his arm around her waist as they teleported.

The familiar scent of their room hit his nostrils. It was a really good change over the disgusting hospital smell of ammonia.

''How long was I out?'' - Issei asked as he let her go.

''A little bit short of a day.'' – She answered, as she quickly threw off her shoes.

His muscle didn't want to listen to him, as he almost fell over putting on some pants. As he turned to open another drawer, Kuroka stopped him.

''Why are you putting on clothes?'' – She asked, with a hint of disappointment in her voice.

''I need to train.'' – He sighed. –''If this continues, I'll never beat that son of a bitch.''

Issei twitched when Kuroka pushed on him from behind. As she stood on her tip-toes, she rested her hands on his shoulders.

''Your shoulders have gotten a lot wider..you just don't notice it, Issei. You need to relax for a few days now. '' – She tilted her sideways, her lips just barely brushing Issei's ear. –''I'll help you~''

And as if her seducing whisper wasn't enough, she blew some air into Issei's ear. Issei raised his hands and entangled his fingers with Kuroka's.

''You are far too good at seducing me.'' – He said, as he released her hands and span around. Although the spin was rather unprecise, it worked, as Issei wrapped his hands around her waist and pushed forward.

As she took a step back, Issei kissed her neck, pushing her further back. She purred, digging her fingers in Issei's back.

As they closed in to the bed, she span around pushed Issei into it. Issei could only growl at the way she outplayed him – the battle had wore him down even more than he thought.

''..Whaat?'' – She purred. –''Can't move?''

She pinned him down as she sat on his crotch. Her legs were bent in a seiza style position, as she took off her top.

She smirked at Issei as a slight blush appeared on her face. ''Do you like it?''

She wasn't wearing a bra…she never did. Issei simply enjoyed the view. Her large breasts, her perfect skin, her navel..

As he was done with looking, he quickly propped himself up and slid his hand below her back, grabbing into her butt.

''Wha~'' – She let out her voice in surprise, as Issei span her around, quickly pinning her down, the same way she had done to him.

''..Yeah.. I like this. A lot.'' – Issei whispered, as he touched Kuroka's navel. She made a cute whimper that made Issei stop.

She didn't look Issei in the eyes, as she looked to the side with a blush. –''Your hands are cold.''

Issei began to laugh, but it turned to a cough. His ribs still hurt…and they most likely were broken.

When a pout appeared on Kuroka's face, Issei ran his hand along her navel, in an upwards direction, as his other hand ran along her hand and met her fingers. They entangled, as Issei leaned closer and kissed her.

Her lips were as soft as always.

After a while, Issei couldn't tell how long, he let go of her breast and slid his hand towards her pants. Kuroka used her hand, that she wrapped around Issei neck, and didn't let Issei move his face from her's.

..But that didn't mean Issei couldn't do what he intended. With practiced ease, he opened her pants button, but then stopped.

''Mou?'' – Kuroka made a cute sound.

''..You are wearing panties.'' – Issei stated. They were black, with a white small bow.

''..Idiot.'' – She said, as she used one palm to cover her red face, and the other- to elbowed Issei in the side. He winked and pulled her into his lap, using both of his hands to remove her tight jeans.

yo. It's me. How have you been?

I've been pretty...well. I survived the big heatwave that didn't let me write..and I've been playing way too much videogames. But don't worry, when school starts, I will most likely start to put out chapters a lot more frequently.

So, Issei almost killed Vali, Cao Cao rekt Issei and Kuroka is seducing Issei.

as always, I guess.
