Here with another chapter!
After Asia's rescue, I skipped a couple of things that for my tastes were not necessary to highlight them. For example, Rías's victory in the burned game. But just that. Little things that I don't see very relevant.
Now, as promised in the previous chapter, there will be a small appearance from Issei's first Waifu. I hope you like the design of her body and outfit that I chose, along with her personality. Although it is not very different from the FanFic that have been witnessed so far (although the personality will be much more different than usual, although it will not be so noticeable in the first impression).
With nothing else to add, let the chapter begin!
CHAPTER 3: THE SALVATION OF ASIA, OR HER PERDIMENSION? CAUGHT IN THE FAMILY KINGDOM!
Issei was walking in the middle of a wooded area to reach his destination: The Church.
The protagonist had his gaze shadowed, while the gem on his gauntlet glowed every certain amount of time.
"* Partner, try to control your emotions. It's dangerous to use so many Boosts. It's useless to increase your strength so much if you reach OverBoost. *" Ddraig had a worried tone in his words.
Issei looked up with a completely serene expression on his face. He loosened his grip on his gauntlet and stopped to see that he was relatively close to the Church. "Calm down, Ddraig. I'm fine. I just want to go in with all my power and try to blow them all up without them noticing I'm there."
"Sorry to disappoint you, boy. But we're not such idiots not to patrol the area when we're about to do something very important."
Issei's skin twitched a bit when he saw three Fallen Angels appear among the trees. Two of them were already known to him.
"I would appreciate it if you would turn around and leave the place. We don't want to get in trouble with the Gremory family, but for that reason we won't allow you to upset Raynare's plans." He cleared up the Fallen Angel known as Dohnaseek.
Issei raised his gauntlet as he gave them a piercing look. "Why are you doing this to Asia?! All she wanted was to serve God and have friends!"
The three Fallen Angels looked at each other and smirked.
"I can see that you have become much stronger than in our first meeting. But you still have a long way to go before you can beat one of us. So what makes you think you can take the three of us together?" Kalawarner questioned, an air of superiority clear to his words.
Issei just gritted his teeth as a Boost could be heard.
He might have been a fool, but not even a mental moron would dare to say that he can handle all three without problems. The only thing that pushed him to battle, was Asia.
After all, he said so himself. He could never forgive himself if he didn't do something about it.
"Are you still here? Apparently you want to die, don't you?" The Blonde Fallen Angel spoke with a slightly macabre smile on her features, although she didn't look very good with how small her body was.
"He never mentioned that he would be a 3 vs 1."
A muffled and apathetic voice was heard from behind the Fallen Angels, causing them to turn around with a raised eyebrow.
Issei recognized that voice immediately, to which he was slightly surprised.
"What's more, he never mentioned that he was going to fight you."
A clearly masculine voice sounded in the environment, so that later four figures very familiar to Issei appeared.
"President!" Issei exclaimed with great surprise upon seeing the entire Gremory entourage.
Rias gave his pawn a gentle smile. "Issei, you can continue on your way with Kiba and Koneko. Akeno and I will take care of this problem."
At the president's statement, Akeno licked one of his fingers with a sadistic and seductive expression, making Issei blush a little. But thanks to his recent hormone check, he brushed it off almost instantly.
"Okay, President! Thank you very much!" Rias just nodded with a confident smile, as Issei ran past him and his two companions followed shortly after, first giving a satisfying nod to his mistress.
"Well, this will be quite an easy job." The blonde girl exclaimed, totally confident in her victory.
"Don't get too confident, Mittelt. Remember that we are talking about the Gremory family, and their power of Destruction can be devastating." Kalawarner warned with a slight frown.
Dohnaseek laughed out loud. "I don't care if that brat is from the Gremory family, or from some high-ranking family." He said this last with a clearly sarcastic and mocking tone, before adjusting her hat with a smirk. "We are 3 and they are 2. Besides that she is just a brat. She must not even have awakened the power of Destruction yet."
"We'll see about that." Rias said with a confident smile, before looking at Akeno.
The woman just laughed in a somewhat strange way and leered at her opponents as she raised her hand. A large bolt of lightning began to form across her palm.
At the sight, the three Fallen Angels widened their eyes slightly in shock.
LINE JUMP.
Issei stormed into the doors of the Church, giving it a big kick and sending them flying. Behind him followed Kiba and Koneko, who were alert to any dangerous situation that might arise.
Issei ran along with his companions while they looked in various directions, not understanding why the place was completely empty. Asia and Raynare were supposed to be here. The two of them, and also-
"Hey, hey, hey. Look who we have here."
The three companions stopped short when they saw how Freed appeared behind a wall while he gave them his distinguished psychopathic smile.
"I still have to pay you back for what you did to me last time, you fucking Demon." Freed commented, while he licked the tip of his sword in a gloomy way.
"Where is Asia?"
Freed was a bit surprised by Issei's question, because he wasn't paying him the slightest bit of attention. The white haired man looked back and pointed to a doorway that he led down. "The ritual is taking place down there. There are also a lot of priests, but I don't like crowds. You know..." he declared with his typical psychotic tone.
Issei started briskly walking towards the entrance, not caring that Freed was in front of the entrance. Kiba and Koneko watched this seriously as they prepared to battle Freed in the worst case.
Freed raised an amused eyebrow. "Are you ignoring me? Remember that I owe you one for last time. This time I'll make sure to cut you into a thousand pieces, and you'll be reduced to little pieces of shit, as it should be!~" Freed threatened with a chanting tone at the end. while moving his tongue wildly.
Freed quickly got in the middle of the path, causing Issei to clench his teeth and clenched his fists.
"I do not have time for this!" Issei yelled, lunging at a speed that Freed couldn't keep up with.
A strong red light emanated from the gauntlet as Issei's fist sank into Freed's cheek, causing the subject to cry out in pain and fly away with a spray of blood on his nose and face. His flight ended when he crashed heavily against the benches that were in the place, becoming unconscious.
Issei wasted no time and went down with his two companions, only to be shocked by the sight. Or at least, Issei if he was shocked.
There were about 40 priests in the place who seemed to be praying to Raynare, while the woman was a few stairs up, next to a cross.
Worst of all, was what was hanging on that cross.
"Asia!" Issei yelled loudly, watching helplessly as the blonde was hanging on the cross.
Seeing him, Raynare gave a somewhat macabre smile while he played with the gift that Issei had given him. "Oh, so you came to witness the death of the nun?"
In a slightly more normal moment, Issei would have asked Raynare why he was still wearing the bracelet that he had given her on his date. But it was not a very "normal" situation to say.
"Why are you doing this to him?!" Issei stepped forward in great anger, causing the priests to stand in front of him.
Raynare looked at him gracefully. "Why do I do it? You know that she possesses a very strong Sacred Gear, right? My boss ordered me to take it for myself, since dark but fun times will begin to arise before long. And he wants to make sure that we are in the highest position when it happens."
"Boss? What the fuck is he talking about? You know what, it doesn't matter." Issei thought as he looked at Asia with great concern.
Before Issei could act, a great scream was heard from the place.
"Asia!" Issei yelled loudly as he watched as the nun screamed in pain loudly. Her being surrounded by a green aura. Raynare would watch all of this in fascination.
Issei tried to run again, but the priests barred his way once more. Before any of them could attack him, Kiba and Koneko charged at the priests, swinging their swords and punching them respectively. Seeing this, the corrupted priests took several steps back, shocked at the strength Kiba and Koneko had. That action created a path for Issei.
"Go, Hyoudou. We'll take care of it." Kiba declared with a smile.
"We've got your back, Hyoudou." Koneko commented with his typical apathetic tone.
Issei looked at both of them while his eyes shone from being on the verge of tears.
"Okay! But when we get out of here, I want you both to call me by my name!" Issei yelled loudly as he wiped his eyes and ran to where Raynare was.
Koneko and Kiba just assented to Issei's proposal and continued to battle the corrupted priests.
Issei stopped dead and watched in horror as the green light began to disappear, and with it, Asia's screams.
"It's already too late..." Raynare said reaching out her hands to take a ring that glowed bright green. "The Sacred Gear, Twilight Healing, is mine! With it, I'll be invincible!" Raynare would exclaim, spreading her wings and starting to laugh like crazy.
Issei didn't care what the woman who deceived him said and quickly approached to release Asia, and carried her in her arms. The blonde looked at him and smiled weakly.
Issei's eyes began to get teary again, but not a single tear fell. "Asia... I'm so sorry... if she had arrived earlier, I..." Issei lowered his head a bit and closed his eyes tightly, causing a small tear to escape from his right eye.
Issei was surprised when Asia wiped away the tear, and then placed her hand on his cheek affectionately. "I'm glad. I'm glad I had a friend, Issei." Issei watched in shock as a tear began to trickle down the side of his eyes. "...Thank you so much...for making me feel so happy in just one day..."
Asia's tear fell and closed her eyes, causing Issei to hug her tightly in great pain.
In the end, she had been unable to do anything...
But he could still avenge her.
A small violet spark stood out inside Issei's soul, causing Ddraig to be alarmed by what he saw.
Issei looked back with great hatred to see if Raynare was still there, but he didn't see anyone. He could only see a large number of black feathers leading to the upper floor.
"Sorry, Issei. We couldn't stop her at first. But she must still be on top, confident of her victory thanks to her newfound power." Kiba declared, a little worried by the great hatred he was emanating from his new friend. It was so weird, even Koneko was surprised. She's not supposed to have Demonic Corruption, so it's not normal for a human to have so much hate.
"Take care of Asia."
Koneko and Kiba looked at him in surprise.
"But-"
"I'll take care of it myself." Koneko was interrupted by Issei, causing both of them to look at him even more surprised.
"Issei, she is a Fallen Angel and she now possesses a Sacred Gear. She is much stronger than the priest you faced." Kiba tried to reason with Issei to no avail.
"I know." It was the only thing he answered as he left Asia in Kiba's hands and began to move forward with great hatred with every step he took.
Raynare would be quietly waiting for Rias Gremory's arrival, since she was very confident of his new power.
In fact, too trusting.
"It's beautiful…" Raynare said quietly as he eyed the ring on her finger in admiration.
His close study of the ring was interrupted when Issei appeared through the door, causing Raynare to look down on him.
"Oh? Do you still feel like fighting? I'd rather take the Gremory with me as proof of my victory. I'm giving you a chance to save yourself from the Demons, and you still want to die?"
Issei slightly lowered his head, not really paying attention to Raynare's words. Although he had only known her for a day, Raynare had been her 'girlfriend'.
Even if she had been for a day, he had had a really good time, and he had even considered stopping seeing other women having Yuuma with him.
After all...
Would he really need to see many women, if he can see the beautiful eyes of his lover every day?
That's what he had thought. He just wanted to give her love, and receive that love in return.
Issei really appreciated her.
And now it turns out that she not only deceived him, hurt, betrayed, and killed. But she also killed someone she could call a friend of hers, even though he didn't have much time to get to know her.
"You were my first girlfriend..."
Raynare looked at her bracelet with mock tenderness. "Yeah, from what I could tell, you were incredibly 'new' to it. A guy who hasn't 'met' a woman yet, I'll admit it was all a lot of fun."
Issei clenched his fists tightly at the same time that his gaze darkened.
"She was going to treat you like a queen..."
"Yes, that was very clear to me. For that very reason it was so entertaining to see your panicked face when that dream was broken." Raynare replied with a clear mocking tone, imitating Yuuma's voice.
Issei clenched his fists even more, causing blood to start coming out of his left hand.
"I thought ours would be something special..."
Raynare laughed a sick sound. "That's right, it was something very special. I saved your gift to remember the day you died." Raynare played with the bracelet that Issei had given her, emphasizing his words. "Really, it was something special, don't you think?"
"RAYNARE!" Issei looked up from him in great anger.
"DON'T SCREAM MY REAL NAME BECAUSE YOU RUIN THE MOMENT!" Raynare yelled with a psychotic grin on his face as he created a spear of light.
Issei would dodge the spear of light with great difficulty, making Raynare laugh out loud.
"Looks like you'll make this a bit interesting. I like that, I won't be bored until your master arrives." Raynare would say as he created another spear of light.
"She just wanted to have a peaceful life!"
Raynare gave him a slightly disgusted look. It was funny when they talked about them, but not when he brought in that blonde girl.
"Do you really think she would have lived a happy life? Ending up dead is the best option. You still don't understand how the supernatural world really works... And you'll never have time to understand it!"
Raynare threw her spear hoping to hit Issei.
The man used the gauntlet on him when he saw that he had no chance to dodge it. He managed to block the attack, but it seemed that the gauntlet wouldn't hold another attack.
"I will avenge her!" Issei yelled loudly, making Raynare laugh even more energetically. She was having a lot of fun with the current situation.
Making fun of and making her victims suffer was something she loved, those were her sins. That was the nature of her.
"Avenge her? If you could do it, what use would she be to you?" Raynare created another spear as she reveled in the broken expression Issei had. "Taking revenge won't bring her back to life, you idiot!" Those were Raynare's last words before he threw the spear at him.
Everything slowed down for Issei as she looked in complete shock at Raynare's last words.
True, what use would it be to her to get back at her, if it doesn't bring her back? That didn't mean she would stop hating her or forgive her for what she did. Alone, she didn't want to stoop to Raynare's level. Asia didn't want it to be like this, and he knew that she was more than that.
Ddraig watched as the small violet spark merged with Issei's soul, causing her to stand in complete shock.
He would kill her anyway, but not for revenge...
She would do it to make sure no one else fell for the fangs of such a viper.
"If you can't give it back to me..." he thought to her.
Ddraig felt like a lot of emotions were going through the bearer of him. But at first, it was just hate. Now, he wasn't sure how many emotions were being dealt with right now.
But the vast majority were not nice...
"If you can't give it back to me..."
Issei would widen his eyes as a large red glow completely surrounded him. Raynare watched in shock as the spear of light shattered into a thousand pieces upon contact with the blinding light.
"DRAGON BOOSTER!"
The stamina had undergone a small transformation, becoming larger.
"IF YOU CAN'T GIVE IT BACK TO ME, I'LL MAKE SURE NO ONE ELSE HAS TO GO THROUGH THE SAME THING!"
Raynare took a step back in complete shock upon hearing the voice of the Boosted Gear.
"AAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!"
"BOOST!"
"BOOST!"
"BOOST!"
"BOOST!"
"BOOST!"
"BOOST!"
"BOOST!"
"BOOST!"
Issei yelled loudly and rushed at Raynare at incredible speed, hitting him hard in the stomach that made him spit out a large amount of blood.
Issei spat out a small amount of blood, due to a spear of light having gone through his leg. The protagonist staggered back, causing Raynare to fall to his knees as he coughed up blood.
Raynare looked up with a weak psycho smile as he began to heal. "I never imagined that you had one of the 13 Longinus. But that does not save you from the great pain that runs through your entire body when you come into contact with a spear of light."
"What are you talking about?"
Raynare was shocked to see how Issei took off his spear as if nothing had happened and a large stream of blood came out of his hole.
"The only thing that hurts is the huge hole in my leg. It's exactly the same pain as when you pierced my stomach. Well, it's even a little more painful" Issei would say with a slightly gloomy smile, making Raynare terrified.
"But how is that possible?! You're a Low-class Devil! You shouldn't be able to move!" Raynare's eyes widened in shock. "Wait a minute! Just a little more painful?! Your body is supposed to be that of a devil now! How come you only feel a little more pain than last time?! That's impossible!"
"Not that it's a negligible pain, but the desire to stop you is even greater than all the pain I'm feeling right now."
"BURST!"
Issei's gauntlet would grow even larger again, now covering her fingers and forearm completely, causing a second green gem to appear on her gauntlet.
Issei took a step forward, not really caring what Raynare was babbling, making the woman look at him terrified and barely get up from the ground.
Raynare could only watch in shock. "I release the second form and the final form of the Boosted Geartan just in seconds?! What kind of Devil is he?!" She thought in great alarm as she created a spear and threw it at him with all her might.
Issei just continued advancing and deflected the spear of light with her gauntlet as if it were a simple fly, making Raynare look at him in complete terror.
Kiba and Koneko were about to leave with Asia's body, but they saw Issei fighting. Just as they were going to join, both of them could see Rias and Akeno in one of the windows while the redhead shook her head. The two understood the message and went back to hide in the shadows.
Raynare turned around and began to fly in terror, trying to escape.
"Don't think you'll escape."
Raynare looked back in horror, as Issei had grabbed her foot. The problem wasn't that he had reached her, but how quickly she had.
"I don't get it… I should be superior to you with my Sacred Gear."
"You are an Angel, so he flies." Issei declared with contained rage at her words, directing a strong punch at her that made her spit out a large amount of blood.
Raynare was thrown towards one of the windows and broke it in the process, being left outside the Church. Issei wasted no time and jumped out the same window, only to find Raynare lying on the floor with a very pained face while her ring was a couple of meters away from her.
Issei grabbed the ring and began to slowly move forward until he was in front of Raynare. The woman's eyes widened in terror.
Raynare decided to use the last escape card from her. It was very low even for her. But it was the only possible escape route.
Issei's eyes widened as she saw how Raynare had transformed into a different person.
"Issei, please forgive me. I swear I didn't mean to. Please give me another chance." Yuuma declared as tears began to stream down her face.
Raynare suddenly reverted to her original form, courtesy of Issei. For she grabbed her neck tightly with one hand and slammed her head to the ground, causing Raynare to gasp in pain.
Issei sat on top of her legs with a dismayed look. "Raynare, I really, really liked you, I really liked you. I would have done everything possible to make you the happiest woman in the world, not because you are my girlfriend, but because you were charming, shy, attractive, cheerful... you were an amazing woman." ..." Issei tightened his grip on Raynare's neck even more, causing her to spit out some saliva. Issei raised her arm that had the gauntlet slowly with a clenched fist pointing at the woman's face. "But that wasn't you."
"Boost!"
A treacherous tear escaped Issei as she watched as Raynare tried her best to break free from Issei's grasp as the pain from her was killing her. She couldn't even think rationally to create a spear.
Issei's right arm reached the highest possible altitude. The protagonist looked up at the night sky with a broken smile on his face for a sweet memory...
"Please come out with me!"
"I guess I'll always be a loser with women. At the very least, I know Matsuda and Motohama will always be with me on it."
"Boost!"
The sound of the Boosted Gear was the only thing heard for a second. After that, a terrifying female scream was heard followed by multiple crashes that resounded in a disgusting manner.
LINE JUMP.
"So, this is the girl?" Rias looked at Asia's corpse with a smile.
"That's right, President. But it won't do any good to reincarnate her if she doesn't possess her Sacred Gear." Kiba replied seriously, making the redhead nod with a smile.
"Don't you think it wasn't necessary to let her die? Considering that we could have created the magic-circle in the Church, we would have made it in time…" Koneko said as she looked at the blonde's corpse with her typical listless expression.
"It's something that was necessary. I knew that Issei could release a new power through his feelings thanks to it." Rias clarified, before giving a satisfied smile. "Though I never expected him to awaken so much power. He gave the Fallen Angel a complete beating."
"Besides that, remember that she might not have wanted to reincarnate as a Demon if we rescued her. This was the most viable option." Kiba added with her typical gentle smile.
Koneko nodded in understanding. "Now, we just need to bring the Sacred Gear to revive it."
"I do not think that it's necessary." Akeno replied as he watched Issei walk through the shattered doors of the Church. The queen licked her lips as she saw how Issei had his gauntlet covered in blood, along with part of her upper garment.
Having heard the last words, Issei clenched the ring tightly in shock as she watched her friends.
Issei quickly looked at Rias with a big hopeful smile. "President, does that mean that you can reincarnate Asia if you have her Sacred Gear?"
Rias nodded with a smile as he crossed his arms. "That's right, or have you already forgotten how we reincarnated you?"
Issei clenched his fists tightly and gave a huge leap of joy. His joy quickly diminished as his vision blurred, along with a great dizziness that suddenly hit him.
"*Partner, deactivate the Boosted Gear. Congratulations on reaching the ultimate release, but you still have a long way to go before you can control it without passing out from exhaustion.*"
Issei just nodded and immediately complied, deactivating his gauntlet.
"Issei, you did an amazing job. I must say, I was very impressed by your performance." Rias congratulated.
Issei would fall on his butt to the ground from exhaustion as she gave a thumbs up to Rias, making everyone smile at how the brunette acted.
Everyone thought that he would be much more down for killing his ex-girlfriend, but he seemed to be more concerned with Asia's recovery right now.
In fact, it wasn't quite like that.
Simply, Issei had sentenced his point of view between him and the women when the fight against Raynare ended.
But he was much more wrong than he thought, and he was going to find out in the future...
LINE JUMP.
Issei watched in astonishment as Rias's Bishop entered Asia's body.
"As your new master, I will grant you a new life!" Rias finished his spell, making the magic circle under Asia disappear.
Issei watched impatiently, waiting for Asia to wake up.
"Hey?" Asia widened her eyes in confusion as a red glow flashed across her eyes for a second.
Issei quickly rushed to Asia and hugged her tightly as she started to cry. "Asia, thank goodness...!" Issei suddenly separated a bit. "Do you recognize me?" he asked, quite worried.
"Issei?" Asked the now confused demon.
Issei hugged her tightly again, making Asia smile at her and hug her back.
The hug lasted a few seconds, since the young woman quickly separated from Issei, something that surprised the young man.
"Who are they?" Asia inquired as she looked at the others.
Rias pointed to herself with a smile. "I am Rias Gremory. They are all my demon servants. I was the one who reincarnated you so that you would have a second life. You should know that I am your master from now on, and you are a Devil."
At that statement, Asia shook her head in confusion, but her confused expression quickly changed to disgusted. Issei felt a little bad knowing that Asia was devoted to God, even though she was considered a heretic of hers for curing a Demon. He quickly tried to remedy the situation.
"President, is there a way for Asia to still be able to pray to God?" At Issei's question, everyone present twitched a bit, although the protagonist didn't notice it. Well, I don't notice it for a reason.
"Issei, are you crazy? I will never pray to that idiot again, never!"
Issei looked at Asia in a state of complete disbelief at the out-of-character response she had given to her.
Asia looked around her in clear disgust. "Besides, why did they have to revive me in a Church? This place is disgusting…"
Before Asia could say or do anything else, Rias quickly went over to her and touched her on the shoulder. "Okay. I'd like to give you some control classes before you continue living in the mortal world." Rias looked back seriously. "We'll be at the Club. I probably won't be at the Academy for a couple of days."
Before Issei could protest for an answer, Rias and Asia disappeared through a magic circle.
Issei looked at her companions, waiting for an answer.
A rather uncomfortable silence was present in the place for several seconds.
"It's the Demonic Corruption..." Kiba replied, breaking the silence.
LINE JUMP.
The week progressed quickly. Issei resumed his morning training without much trouble, although things got really complicated for him when it came to practicing with his Boosted Gear. According to Ddraig's explanation, the Boosted Gear had evolved too fast so now he didn't have a certain mastery over it and that made his body exhausted very quickly. The only way to improve that situation was with personalized training by someone who knew about Sacred Gear, or who understood how the power of dragons worked, since technically Issei's Boosted Gear is pure dragon power. He tried to seek help from his companions, but Rias said that he could help him in magical aspects, but not in improving his control with the Sacred Gear. He also tried to ask Kiba for help, but the blonde told him that when he awakened his Sacred Gear he had never had any problem using it. In the end, Ddraig and Issei concluded to continue improving his physical condition, since that was what was stopping the improvement process at the moment. With the help of Rias, Issei followed a training plan throughout the entire week.
Regarding Asia, Issei had hardly been able to visit her at the Club these days. Although he was glad that she was okay, his change in attitude made the brown-haired man cool down on his relationship with the blonde. Now, Asia had a much more direct and fiery personality. There were even times when her attitude seemed somewhat sinister. The only sure thing for Issei was that she would never be hers again before, and that was something that bothered him a little. Finally, I come to the conclusion that she tried to convince and warn all the people who want to become Devils for what they were exposing themselves to, unless there was no other alternative. If Asia had changed so drastically from such a kind and timid person, she couldn't imagine what would happen to a person with a stronger attitude.
In these few days that had passed, "normal" things also happened. Like Kiba's fan club. The ones marked as the "Pervert Duo", along with "The Friend of Perverts", which played negatively on Issei's reputation, but that was nothing compared to how all the women viewed Matsuda and Motohama.
The only really important thing this week was that Issei found out that there was more than one heir to a great family at the school. This heir was a woman and her name was Sona Sitri. She also found out that her pawn was Saji and he had recently joined her ranks just before the start of school. She hadn't liked the boy very much because of his cocky and stupid attitude. But he quickly assumed that the Demonic Corruption had corrupted his soul, so in the end he ended up pitying him. He just hoped that he would eventually learn to "control" her, so to speak.
LINE JUMP.
Issei was leaning against his desk with a completely bored look on his face. Right next to him, there was a backpack much larger than what would be considered normal.
"Hmmm, Matsuda and Motohama left me again to spy on the locker room. Ahhhh, I'd like to go too..." Issei thought, not really paying attention to his thoughts, since they were watching how the girls were gathered at a table and they spoke of the Prince.
All the women turned and screamed out of nowhere, causing Issei to cover his ears in annoyance. He decided to look away from him to see what it was about.
"Speaking of Rome…" Issei thought as he watched as Kiba walked in, giving him a completely emotionless look.
The women started whispering among themselves when they saw that Kiba sat down right in front of Issei's bench.
"What's wrong, Prince Charming?" Issei inquired, looking up at him a little, with a clear mocking tone in his voice.
Kiba gave him a nervous smile at his friend's attitude. "The President wants to see you." At this, Issei straightened up and looked at him very carefully. Kiba looked around and began to whisper very softly. "Once a month, a recognized Family from Hell has a chance to visit the Family Realm. Luckily, The President and Sona made an agreement that the Sitri Family entered last month, and we entered this month. The President will give you more details."
Issei simply nodded in a somewhat absent-minded way as he glanced at the girls behind, to make sure they couldn't hear his conversation. "What time?" He would whisper.
"In 25 minutes."
"25?"
"Is there a problem?"
"No, it's just that that number rings a bell..."
Kiba just shook his head at his friend's ramblings and left the place.
"Did the Familiar Kingdom say?"
Issei raised an eyebrow internally upon hearing Ddraig's hesitant tone. "Yeah, is there something wrong with that?" He would ask very curiously.
"Anything strange? No, not at all. I was just asking. I've never been to that place, but I've always heard some…things."
The fact that Ddraig tried to correct her voice made Issei realize that he was hiding something from her. But eventually she brushed it off. Lately, her trust with Ddraig had increased to astronomical levels, and she knew that if the dragon didn't tell her something, it was for a reason. And many times, those reasons were personal. A clear example is when he wanted to know why Ddraig and Albion started their eternal rivalry. The dragon simply replied that some things were better without being dug up. Although he promised that he would tell her when he is much stronger.
LINE JUMP.
"I see... so that woman was your familiar." Said Issei while he listened attentively to the explanation of his mistress.
The familiar left her female form and turned into a strange little animal with bat wings, then landed on Rias's shoulder.
They were all gathered in the Occult room, where Rias had finished her explanation that he was a familiar.
"My idea is to take the two of you to get a familiar. Besides that, this will be a good experience for you to start relating to atypical worlds."
"It will be a good experience." Asia commented with a smirk.
Rias raised her index finger at him with a small smile. "By the way, Asia, tomorrow you will enroll in Kuoh Academy. I think you are ready to enter, but be careful with your actions. I would hate to have to erase everyone's memory because you attacked a follower of God in the middle of one class."
Asia would just nod with an enthusiastic smile. She was already looking forward to entering the Academy ever since she had come to this place.
Rias looked at his two most recent acquisitions with a smile. "Okay, do you have any last questions?"
Issei raised his hand, and Rias quickly gave him the floor. "How different will this... Kingdom be?"
Rias gave him a sly smile. "It's not something I can explain with my words. You'd better find out with your own point of view."
Issei just nodded in understanding.
Rias called everyone to stand inside the magic circle, and then disappeared.
LINE JUMP.
Issei and Asia looked around in slight surprise. The sky was a green color, they were surrounded by trees and more trees (not to mention ridiculously huge). You could also hear the noise of flowing water, hinting that there were a large number of streams in the area. To top it off, an extremely humid climate reigned in the place.
"It's like a forest." Issei thought looking in all directions. Omitting the fact that the trees were an ash white color, along with leaves that seemed to be made of green tea.
"GUAW."
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR."
"The only thing that its inhabitants are not the usual animals." Issei thought with his eyes rolling.
"This place is quite nice." Asia commented as she looked around her with a bright smile.
"Oh, so we meet again, Gremory girl."
They all looked up to see some kind of version of Ash Ketchum, but much more adult.
"President?" Issei asked with a confused tone.
"He is the one in charge of maintaining order in this kingdom. He makes sure that the Demons do not harm the small ecosystem of this place, along with maintaining order among the species that inhabit here, since some are very territorial." Rias explained wisely.
"That's right, brat. This place seems endlessly sprawling, but it's much smaller than you can imagine. I need to make sure everything stays in order. Especially since there's nowhere else in Hell these friends can move to if they your home will be damaged." Explained the man who was in the tree.
"hell?" Asia asked in disbelief.
Rias nodded with a proud smile on her face. "That's right. The Familiar Kingdom is located in an extremely hidden place in Hell. For that very reason, only high-renown families know the location of this forest."
Before they could continue their talk, a small dragon descended from the air and stared at Asia, causing everyone to be surprised. But the one who was most surprised was undoubtedly the Family Caregiver.
Asia just stared at him for a few seconds with a slightly surprised expression. The little Dragon finally stopped studying her closely and leaned his head forward, indicating that he wanted to be petted.
Asia didn't hesitate and stroked the little blue and white dragon's back, making the little one happy and start circling around her. Finally, the little dragon landed in Asia's arms with great tranquility and a small glow covered it for a few seconds, causing a small seal to appear on her abdomen.
"I can't believe what I'm seeing. As soon as we get here and the lady tames a Sprite Dragon instantly, being a breed quite well known for being considered a rather surly, territorial, and highly indomitable species. I see that she has a truly extraordinary touch, young lady." The Caretaker declared, great astonishment in his tone of voice.
Everyone approached Asia and began to congratulate her on her achievement, except for Issei who was going crazy over the place.
"Ddraig, what the hell is going on? I don't know if I'm going crazy, but I feel a lot of presences in this place..." Issei widened his eyes and looked quickly behind him, after feeling a disturbing energy strong but asleep
"Partner, calm down. This is completely normal. Since you are a small part dragon, you can sense the presence and power of other dragons for miles. It is an ability that only our species possesses, as others cannot sense the presence , they can only sense the expulsion of magic and power. Furthermore, it not only lets you know their presence, but also allows you to study their state of mind. Although that is already a very advanced level that you may not be able to reach, since you are not a dragon one hundred percent." Ddraig explained very seriously.
A great cold sweat broke out on Issei's face. "I understand, Ddraig. But…" Issei kept staring behind him as a great aura of icy color rose from behind him. "Is it normal for a dragon to possess such a stifling aura and power?"
"..."
"Ddraig?"
"I'll call him Rassei!"
Issei abandoned worrying about him to focus on Asia. He still hadn't congratulated her as she should.
Besides, he didn't have to worry. After all, she hadn't done anything to that dragon to make him mad at him...
TRUE?
"Rassei...it's a nice name." Issei said as he walked over with a friendly smile.
Rassei opened one of his eyes and then a large electric discharge left his body and hit Issei hard, making the brown-haired man dance in a funny way.
"Hey Rassei, that's not done." She declared Asia, holding back a laugh.
"What the hell?!" Issei asked, already released from the electric dance.
The Caretaker gave him a mocking smile. "Remember what I said? Those dragons are extremely territorial, and it just so happens that you 'are a dragon'."
LINE JUMP.
"Kyaaaaa! Get it off me!"
"Wait, let's not use magic or all our clothes will fall apart!"
"These things are disgusting..."
"Ara Ara, how naughty."
Issei would be turned around staring at a tree while he listened to all the party that was going on behind him.
"I don't have to see, I don't have to see... Resist the temptation!"
Kiba swung his sword hard at one of the many slimes in the room, ridding Koneko of the hideous creatures. "Issei, could you help me? Doing all this alone is a bit complicated..."
Issei turned his head for a second and could see how Rias and Akeno's breasts were almost exposed. Both women jerked, making their breasts bulge in a sensual way, and if we add the fact that they were covered in slime drool, it gave the scene quite an erotic touch.
"Can't!" Issei quickly turned around and placed his hands on his face to cover his big blush.
"Come on..." Kiba said with a nervous smile.
"He's a pervert..." Koneko replied with a frown.
Kiba continued to eliminate slimes along with Koneko, but when the situation seemed under control, a small number of them appeared among the trees, falling on top of the women and stripping them completely naked.
"Kyaaaaa!"
"I thought we'd wiped them all out…" Kiba mused as he rubbed his cheek with a nervous smile.
Issei was about to give in to his sexual instincts and look away, but the Caretaker just appeared in front of him.
"Hahahahaha! These creatures feed on clothes, especially women's clothes, so it's normal that they're attacking them like that." The man looked at Issei with a smirk. "Though in general, the number of slimes reflects a man's sexual appetite, and it's more than obvious who it is."
Issei removed his hands from his face in complete disbelief. "Are you saying it's my fault?"
The Caretaker placed one of his hands on top of Issei's shoulder. "It's not that I'm blaming you brat. You're just unlucky to have a libido 15 times higher than normal. I hope in the future you'll be able to control it without any problem." The man gracefully looked at the women drooling. "Because so far, you haven't done a good job of hiding it if the naughty little ones noticed your presence."
The man moved away from Issei, making the brown-haired man think a little about the man's words. He finally nodded to himself decisively. He had to learn to control his voracious sexual appetite, more than anything else so he wouldn't end up with the same reputation as his two best friends. He knew he couldn't have any luck with any woman because of her past scars, but that didn't mean women couldn't get a good impression of him outside of the realm of love.
Although at this point it is already known what Issei's greatest motivation is to stop being a perverted beast.
"Ise..."
Issei changed his determined expression to a little scared after hearing Rias' repressive tone.
Assuming the girls were already dressed, Issei turned his head slowly and broke out in a profuse sweat when he saw the suffocating aura surrounding Rias. "Yes, President?"
"I understand that you can't control your sexual appetite and have attracted all those slimes accordingly. But it was too bad that you stood around doing nothing, just to see us naked." Rias declared with a frown.
"That was very wrong, Issei." Akeno supported Rias with a seductive smile.
"Now my whole body feels sticky, silly." Asia added as she rubbed her uniform awkwardly.
"Perverted." Was Koneko's simple answer.
Ah Kiba would just drop a sweat from what was happening.
"As your mistress, this is something I cannot forgive. If you see us in danger, any kind of danger, you should always help us. Now that was stupid, but what makes sure you don't run away when there's a really tough fight?"
"President!"
Rias waved her hand dismissively. "Yes, yes. I know you would never do it, but you have to keep in mind that I need to show you my authority so that something like this doesn't happen again." Rias narrowed her eyes on the last few words, making Issei swallow hard.
"Kiba, you're a man too, help me…" Issei said, giving him a pleading look.
Kiba rubbed his hair with a nervous smile. "I'm sorry, Issei. But I can't disobey the President."
Issei just looked down, completely downcast by his friend's response.
Rias crossed her arms with great seriousness. "From what I've learned from you, I know that a physical training-based punishment would only make you happier. And the action you took today isn't serious enough to get your ass whipped."
"President..." Issei looked up with a hopeful glint in his eyes.
Rias smiled lightly. "So your punishment will be to stay here for three days."
"WHAT?!" Issei yelled loudly at what he heard.
A magic circle was formed under Rias's feet. The other servants of hers gathered around her, a somewhat confused look on her face. Apparently, they were not very sure of this punishment.
"See you on Thursday, Issei. Try not to move around too much in this place, or you might have a problem with the dragons. It's the only territory they have left after the war, and they're overly territorial for that reason."
"Wait a second!" Issei tried to jump into the magic circle, but they all disappeared in her face. "I think I prefer the whipping..." she finally said as she looked around her with some fear.
LINE JUMP.
"Hahahahahaha! So, only here for three days huh?"
"That's how it is..."
Issei and the Caretaker were eating a large amount of berries and other fruits. It was obvious to say that those kinds of fruits were not common on earth, but their taste was still similar.
"Thank you for giving me some food." Issei gave the man a smile to indicate her appreciation.
The Caretaker would give him a smirk. "No problem, boy. I know you're not someone who has bad intentions, just looking at you I can tell."
Issei opened her briefcase and would throw all her books and notebooks on the ground to start putting the fruits. "By the way, do you know any place where it's not dangerous to sleep?"
The man looked up from her with a thoughtful face. "Hmmmmm, not really. There are no places here that aren't dangerous, although there are places that are less dangerous than others." The man looked down from him with a serious expression. "I recommend that you stay in these areas, since they are the least dangerous." The man watched curiously as Issei closed his suitcase and adjusted the position of the backpack they carried on their backs. "By the way, what do you have in your backpack?"
Issei put the briefcase on his shoulder as he gave him a smile. "I never go back home after the Academy, so I always take a backpack with me so I have plenty of water and food. Luckily, they'll help me out a lot today."
The man gave him a worried look. "Don't your parents worry that you're away so long?"
Issei would give a mocking snort, making the man look at him strangely. Issei would turn around and start walking, raising his hand in greeting. "I'm sure they'll be happy not to see a hair from me in three days."
The man gave him a somewhat confused look, but he decided not to press the subject any further, because it seemed delicate.
The man snapped his fingers with a smile. "I almost forgot to tell you something. To the north of here is a cave that is quite safe. No one dares to go in there because of the freezing temperatures."
Issei would slightly change his direction to head north as he pointed at his giant backpack. "Luckily, this morning I bought a large number of blankets."
The man continued to look at Issei, until he finally disappeared into the trees.
"Anyway, I wonder what it is that place has to generate such a low temperature?" The man thought, holding his chin.
LINE JUMP.
Issei kept moving through the trees. He could hear the sound of a lot of water and animals to the right of him, so surely there was some kind of lake in that direction.
Issei put a goofy expression on his face. "I'm lucky to have a lake nearby along with such vegetation. This will come in handy to sustain me for three days." Issei put his serious face on again. "I just hope my 'dragon sensor' doesn't make an appearance again in these three days. I wouldn't want to have to worry about auras in the woods at nap time."
"Buddy, I don't think the cave is as safe as that bum told us."
Issei raised an eyebrow at Ddraig's hesitant and scared tone.
"Ddraig, do you have a thing with this place? Ever since we got here, you've been acting like you're afraid of something or someone."
"Me? Scared? Ha! You have no idea what you're talking about, brat." Ddraig replied with a clear tone of superiority.
Issei gave a small smile as he looked at his right hand. "So what is bothering you?"
"It's nothing, mate. It's something insignificant. Don't worry." Ddraig answered with a clear confident tone.
Issei looked ahead with a smile and continued moving forward. "In that case, then there's nothing to worry about."
"Wait, anywhere but there!" Ddraig yelled with a clearly scared tone.
Issei stopped short and a small tic in his eye showed the annoyance he was having at the moment. "You know, if you're not going to tell me WHY I shouldn't move TOWARDS the cave, STOP PICKING ME UP AND SHUT UP!"
"..."
Issei frowned and continued advancing faster. "Okay, if you don't want to tell me, that's your problem."
Issei kept advancing for a few more minutes, until he finally went through a tree and watched with great astonishment as the cave loomed about 40 meters from him, showing that the surrounding vegetation was completely crushed by the climate of the place. The cave had a large hole and everything around it was adorned with ice.
Before Issei could step onto the ice, Ddraig finally spoke.
"It's something from my past, for that very reason I don't want you to go there. Please listen to me, partner. My carriers usually die from the battle against Albion for the most part, but they also die from two other factors. One is because of the Dragon Slayer, and the other one is in this cave. This misfortune is something that has haunted me since the beginning of my battle against Albion. I don't like to remember and talk about my past, but I wouldn't want you to die, being the best bearer that has treated me in this millennium. Everyone has treated me as a source of power, but you are the first to treat me as their partner. So please, I promise I will tell you everything, but I beg you a little more time , since they are hard memories for me, because they are things that will never return.*"
Ddraig's genuinely sincere and concerned tone made Issei give a very pleased smile at his response.
"Okay, partner. I understand that your memories of when you were still alive are harsh, but I just want there to be true trust between us. After all, we could live many millennia together."
"You're right. Thanks for not pushing me, partner." He would thank Ddraig with a clear grateful tone in his words.
"Now let's get out of here."
Issei lowered his raised foot, stepping on the edge of the ice. The brunette watched slightly surprised as the ice moved away from his foot by magic.
Inside the cave, giant eyes of a deep blue color snapped open.
At that moment, there was only time for a small whisper from Ddraig to be heard.
"Shit..."
Issei was abruptly dragged into the ice sector by a huge icy dome that surrounded the entire surrounding area, getting trapped inside the site.
"But what kind of sorcery is this?!" Issei yelled in shock, seeing the huge dome that was surrounding him.
Issei quickly materialized his gauntlet and delivered a strong blow to the column of ice, without scratching it.
"What is this shit?" Issei questioned himself with narrowed eyes as he began to shiver from the cold.
"We're lost. We went too far, and she noticed us." Ddraig answered with a very serious tone.
Issei blinked twice in surprise. "'she'?"
"The last factor dooming my wielders is a Dragon named Tiamat. She is completely insane. She is no use staying here. If you don't go, she will come for us."
"Wait, what did you do to make her hate you so much?"
"..."
Issei put on a bored look. "More personal stuff...I guess I'll ask her."
"You'll be very lucky if she lets you say more than two words that aren't part of your introduction. It was an honor to have been your partner for over two weeks."
"Hey, don't give me up for dead yet." Said Issei with a twitch in his eye. He didn't understand why he had to deal with Ddraig's personal problems, but if he died because of this stupidity, his soul would enter the Sacred Gear just to kick his ass.
LINE JUMP.
Issei entered the cave, where he could only see darkness. He continued advancing a little recklessly through the cave, until he ran into a current of air that seemed to be a breath.
Issei took a huge leap back as huge beautiful eyes of a deep light blue color opened before him.
"I never thought you would willingly come to your death, Ddraig." The figure said as he stood up and spread his wings, having such a gigantic size that it encompassed the entire cave.
Issei might be a lot more scared right now if it wasn't for the melodious and beautiful voice that came from a huge dragon (leaving out the fact that the tone described the hate of him).
After a few seconds, Issei watched in amazement as the entire cave lit up thanks to the ice that adorned it. He was further astonished when he saw the huge 9 meter dragon in front of him. His scales were completely white, except for his abdomen and wings that were light blue, almost as strong and deep as his eyes.
"Then I hope you're prepared for your death, Ddraig. And if you're not, it's not my problem." The dragon's clearly annoyed tone made Issei snap out of his astonishment.
Issei waved his hands in defense with some fear. "Wait, wait, wait! I'm not Ddraig, I'm the bearer of it."
Tiamat narrowed her eyes at him, making Issei even more nervous. "That's right. Now that idiot is a mere Sacred Gear, but they are the same scum. After all, you are the Sekeryutei." Said the dragon with a clear mocking tone at the end.
"Scum? What am I missing?" thought the protagonist. "Don't call me that, my name is Issei, not Sekeryutei. That's just a silly honorary title they give me for having Ddraig."
Tiamat's eyes flashed with intrigue for a second. "How funny… all the previous wielders I've killed rejoiced at his title like morons."
Seeing that the dragon had some interest in a chat, Issei didn't miss the opportunity and pointed a finger at her. "Besides, I don't know what Ddraig did to you for you to call him scum, but I have nothing to do with his problems!"
Tiamat glared at him, hinting that he had touched a very sensitive point. "So that idiot only rejoices in stories where he achieved great achievements, huh?"
"In fact, he didn't even tell me anything about his life. But I won't answer so as not to miss the chance to get out alive." Issei thought as sweat began to break out from his face, indicating that his superficial calm was slowly beginning to give way.
Tiamat brought her face threateningly closer to Issei's, making the brunette a little scared. Not because of her closeness, but because of the pain and hatred in his eyes. "I was completely in love with a dragon, along with two other females. In our species, it's normal to see males practice polygamy, so I didn't mind sharing it. But soon after, I found out that he only wanted the other two. , and I only saw myself as a trophy for my position. That caused me to fall into 'Dragon's Fall', a lethal disease that consumes you in a single week, and the only thing it needs to sprout in your body is that you enter into a disastrous state of mind. It's an almost incurable disease, but if you get over it, you'll never have to go through it again. Obviously, I wasn't emotionally strong enough to get over it myself, but this is where Ddraig comes in. He took care of me for days on end to make sure he was okay. As I was healing, I just couldn't help but fall in love with him, and I felt like our connection was very special. But when I finally healed, he abandoned me. I was tracking him for a whole week. leta, until I finally found it..." Tiamat's eyes grew a little teary. "In the arms of another! And again, I was rejected!"
In these moments, Issei's fear had dissipated, to become empathy. In fact, she felt great pity for Tiamat, because he had experienced something similar firsthand, referring to the first part of the story.
Tiamat turned her face away from Issei and her tears crystallized and broke, so that he later gave off an aura of death around her. "For that very reason, I swore to take revenge. I took revenge on my former lover, and took over this cave in the last millennium to only go out when I felt Ddraig's presence, only to go and kill him."
Tiamat just waited for Issei's response to kill him. He just waited for him to answer like everyone else: "You're crazy." "You are crazy." "Because you are that way, no one will ever love or want you."
"Don't you feel alone?"
...
In those moments, the anger and hatred of the woman passed to a quite secondary plane.
"What?"
Issei rubbed her cheek with a nervous smile. "I'm just saying, you know. If you wait here for this long to kill Ddraig, that means you haven't talked to almost anyone in a millennium."
Tiamat looked at Issei in great surprise. "Well…I guess so. But I never really thought about it. I only had one goal in mind."
Issei stopped rubbing his cheek and looked down with a slightly downcast expression. "I know what you've been through can be very hard, but it's always good to try to get over it. And talking to people can help you."
"You know?! Don't make me laugh! Don't try to feel sorry for me, when you have no idea what it feels like!" Tiamat roared with great rage at her words.
"Why do you think I'm a Devil?! Don't make hasty statements!"
Tiamat was surprised again when Issei looked up at her with great seriousness, besides that she had yelled at him.
How long had it been since someone had yelled at him?
In fact...
Has anyone ever yelled at her?
That wasn't really what was on her mind right now. The only thing she was thinking about was Issei's penetrating gaze. Without a doubt, the boy had gone through an experience similar to hers.
That means he understands her pain.
"Don't compare one thing to the other, mate. Your experience was far worse than this dragon's."
Tiamat's scales bristled, indicating that she did not want to hear that voice at all.
"How dare you... HOW DARE YOU?!" the dragon roared loudly, causing Issei to be dragged a few meters.
Issei collided her hand with her face internally. Right now, he was very angry with Ddraig. Just when he had a chance to live, he was ruined by his own partner.
A large amount of power that materialized as ice began to surround her, giving her a very imposing and threatening image.
But Issei had his head elsewhere at the moment...
"Why are you angry?! You don't know what my-"
Issei was so angry, that he didn't even think of his words.
They just came out of it.
They came from his soul.
"SHUT THE FUCKING MOUTH YOU DAMN UNDERDEVELOPED LIZARD!"
The stifling atmosphere that Tiamat produced disappeared instantly, making everything go completely silent while the dragon's eyes were as wide as they could be.
"Hey, I'm defending you! Watch your approach, brat!*" Ddraig whispered under his breath with a very offended tone. Obviously, his whisper was of little use, since everything was completely silent.
Issei just stood there looking at Tiamat. A small icy stream was the only thing heard in the agonizing silent seconds.
After that, Tiamat's expression of complete surprise began to slowly soften.
In fact, it looked like he was beginning to smile...
"hm hm hm, ha ha ha, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Tiamat flipped over on the ground as he laughed non-stop and grabbed his stomach with his four paws.
Tiamat began to hit the ground heavily, causing the entire place to rumble. "UN-UNDEL-UNDELELVED LIZARD! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Issei couldn't remain surprised by Tiamat's reaction for long, because his voice and laughter were so beautiful when he wasn't threatening you with death, that it was simply very easy to get carried away by it.
For that reason, he also began to laugh along with her.
"...I don't like where this is going to lead." Ddraig said, very offended by what was happening.
END OF CHAPTER!
First of all, I would like to clarify everything about Dragonfall. In this fic it is a rather special disease. I don't think that Issei suffers it, since he won't be deceived by anyone. In fact, Rias and everyone else won't have a chance to get close to him, since he'll be too busy with the ones who are really going to love him. I wanted to affirm this, since when I did this development many were reluctant to have a Dragonfall, since it is a very controversial topic, and the reality is that it is understandable, since that factor ruined many stories. In case of doubt, I will reaffirm it again, this will only be a one-time thing, and it will be a disease that has some explanation in the future.
I had planned to describe Tiamat's human appearance in this chapter, but everything took much longer than I thought, so I decided to leave it for the next chapter. I think it is not necessary to clarify it, but Tiamat will be incredibly beautiful. When I describe it, they will realize it.
Yes, these three days will be quite eventful for Issei. Not by training, but by history.
Who is the Dragon Slayer?
Why are dragons almost extinct?
How are the dragon classes divided?
What will Issei's familiar be?
How close will they become emotionally in just three days?
Before saying goodbye, I just tell you not to expect a relationship in just two chapters. It's something that will take a LOT of development. Especially, because the specific cases are quite special. Because both are deeply damaged ah as far as that topic is concerned. Likewise, there will be many sexual solicitations. But more than lascivious, they will be affectionate.
Now yes, see you in the next chapter!
A hug!
