Sorry for the wait, but I needed some time to think about this story and after reading the comments, it made me rethink the story. But now I am back and I don't care if people don't like the story, for those that do enjoy this story, here is the next chapter.
Somewhere in the world
Appearing in a flash of red, issei was in the middle of the woods with a thick fog around him. " So this is my first destination on my journey to see the world. And I have no idea where I am." trying to use his senses to tell where he is and if anyone is around him. But not finding anything that would tell him where he was.
" ha draig, where did you send me? I can't tell from my senses were this place is."
" You are in transylvania. A region of Romania known for its castles and mountains, but also being the birthplace of the great vampire dracula." said draig with pride, knowing that his partner wanted to see this region ever since he had heard of the place from gasper.
"Transylvania, so this is the first place I get to see. I can go and see all the mountains and castles of this land, and possibly see where Gasper and Valerie are from." making up his mind issei grew his dragon wings and with a powerful flap of them, sent him into the sky giving him a birds eye view of the area. Seeing a town a little ways away from him, issei flew closer to the town before landing, putting his wings away and making sure his eyes looked normal.
Looking around issei could see that there were shops and markets all around selling a multitude of different items and foods. Smelling the food made Issei hungry, and wanted to try some of the traditional food of this land. Looking around for a place to eat, issei was happy that he could understand any language, which made trying to find a place to eat a lot easier. With the sun getting lower in the sky, Issei finally found a little pub that wasn't too crowded.
Walking in issei found a table with very few people around it and had a seat. After taking his seat a young looking man came over and handed him two menus to look at and told him that the special of the day was a stew. Once the man left, Issei saw that he had a food menu in front of him with some dishes that he had never heard of, and he also saw the stew that the man was talking about. A potato stew with smoked sausage with a roll of bread and some beans.
Making up his mind, Issei would do the stew and closed his menu, but saw the other menu that the man gave him. Opening the menu issei saw that it was an alcohol menu with all the drinks that the pub sells. Issei had never had alcohol, even though for devils it was pretty normal, issei had never been one to drink especially after seeing what alcohol did to rossweisse. Remembering one of the girls, Issei had a small frown on his face. Knowing that rossweisse wasn't there with the others, he still didn't know if she was in on what the others had done or if she even did it herself. Before any more thoughts could enter his mind, the young man came back with a pen and a small notebook to take his order.
Pulling himself back to the present, issei told the man that he would like the stew with extra sausage and he would try the traditional drink of the area being a strong brandy made from plums. ' thank you for helping me pick something to drink. I never had a drink before and I had no idea what half the stuff on the menu was.' thought issei talking to draig so that no one could hear him.
' your welcome partner. The brandy of this land is quite strong but has a hint of sweetness to it. I remember one of my previous wielders visiting this country and enjoyed this drink a lot when he was here.'
After a short time of waiting the food Issei ordered had come along with his drink. Smelling the food in front of him, issei said his thanks and started to eat, loving the food and the taste of the smoked sausages. The brandy was a good idea, complementing the more strong tastes of the stew with its sweet taste.
Enjoying his food and chatting with draig, issei couldn't help but overhear some of the conversations. Most being about how their days were, and how their families were doing, But one got his attention. " ha, hope you and the family are staying safe. There have been a lot of cases of people being attack at night, and some of them around found after." said a man sitting with his friend.
' attacks at night, here in transylvania. This must be some kinda bad joke. But then again this is the home of the vampire factions. Maybe one of them has been feeding on the people around here.'
'Maybe, but we should still be careful. If it is a rogue vampire they might try and attack us to get some blood. Given that dragon blood does boost the abilities of vampires.' said draig warning his partner.
Finishing his food and paying, issei walked outside where there weren't too many people out as the sun had set and from the increase in danger from the attacks. Walking through the town, issei had no idea where he was going to sleep for the night. But before he could there was the sound of someone's muffled scream. Knowing that he had nothing better to do, issei disappeared into the shadows reappearing where he felt the shadows of two people away from others, and the scent of blood in the air.
Walking out of the shadows, Issei could see a woman being held against a wall with her mouth covered by a pale white hand and a person's head in the crook of her neck. Before he could say a word the person holding the woman let her go, with her body hitting the ground with no life left in her body. Seeing the face of the person that just killed a woman, issei saw a extremely pale faced man with red eyes and long white hair. But the part that stood out the most was the pair of fangs with blood dripping from them.
'Draig, that's definitely a vampire. What should we do? cause i am not letting him leave here after what he just did.' asked issei while getting ready to chase the vampire if he tries to run.
' I don't know partner. We don't know which faction he is from, or how powerful he is. But for some reason he smells familiar.' said draig.
" Who are you, and what are you doing here attacking these people?"
" I have no reason to tell you anything. I feed on these sheep because I require it. But you smell of something more rare, more sweet. You will do nicely for my next meal." said the vampire dashing towards Issei with blistering speed.
Seeing the incoming enemy issei tried to activate the boosted gear out of reflex only for it not to appear. Shocked issei almost missed the clawed hand reaching for his neck, but his instincts kicked in and issei turned into a shadow like mist as the attack went right through him as he went back to normal.
' ok that was way too close for comfort. Why is the boosted gear not working?' asked issei as he continued to dodge the vampire's attack that seemed to slowly get faster. They got faster and faster with each attack until Issei felt a claw graze his shoulder. Realizing that if this keeps up he would lose, issei forced a dozen blades to come from his shadow and impale the vampire. To his surprise the vampire simply broke the blades and issei could see the wounds closing themselves to the point that it looked like nothing happened.
" alright you can heal from that, but try healing from this." said issei as has throw a purple and black fire ball at the vampire, who at first looked like they were about to take the attack head on, but instead moved out of the way at the last moment realizing this wasn't a normal fireball. As the fire ball went past the vampire, a small part burned the vampire's cheek to the point of third degree burns. But instead of healing normally the wound healed slowly and at the end left a decent side scar on the face of the vampire.
Feeling the scar on his pale face made the vampire enraged. About to rip the person that left a mark on his body, the vampire dashed to issei only to stop a couple steps in seeing that the sun was starting to rise. Knowing that the sun would kill him the vampire growled at issei before changing into a large man shaped bat creature and flying away at an insane speed.
Feeling the rays of sunlight his back issei let out a breath he didn't know he was holding. " I have multiple questions. But I need to sleep before anything and I need to get this woman to a hospital." Issei grabbed the woman's body who was deathly pale but to his surprise there was still a pulse. Making his way to the hospital as fast as he could without drawing attention to himself.
Couple days earlier in the grigori
It had been a full day since Vali tried to talk to Azazel, but had no luck. " damn it, how much work can that lazy bastard have?"
" calm down vali, if it was the juggernaut drive like you said then wouldnt you still feel it and wouldn't azazel and the four satan's know about it from issei's harem?"
" You're not wrong, but it is because I can't sense the drive anymore that makes me concerned. Normally once the drive starts it is hard to stop, and if there was something that sent issei into the drive then everyone should know about it. Maybe I can get some information from one of the maou." said vali making a magic circle to contact one of the maou.
Getting a connection with the magic circle, Vali saw a hologram of the strongest queen in the underworld and the wife of the maou lucifer, grayfia lucifuge. " lucifer-san, might i ask why you are calling the maou lucifer's personal line, when you know he is busy with work after the sealing of the trihexa?" asked grayfia.
" I have asked you not to call me that, it is just vali. But I am calling to see if there has been any changes to issei and the others."
"Not that I am aware of. They haven't told us anything that has happened, the last time we got news from them was when the maou's sister graduated. Why do you ask?"
" That's weird, because the other day I felt the activation of the juggernaut drive from issei. But as soon as I felt it, it disappeared."
" the juggernaut drive activated. You can't be serious. If the drive activated we would have felt it, and the girls would have told us. But knowing that you wouldn't lie about issei we will check it out. Thank you." said grayfia, disconnecting the magic circle.
' at least i told her. She can find out more on her end. But I still want to tell azazel when I see him.' thought vali as he went back to the training area that he would always use.
With grayfia
After getting done with her conversation she made her way to her husband's side, sirzechs lucifer. " Who contacted me?" asked sirzechs
"It was the white dragon emperor Vali lucifer. He was telling me that he felt issei go into the juggernaut drive."
" WHAT. the juggernaut drive, why? What happened? Why was I not told about this? Is he ok?"Sirzechs was starting to release his magic power, disintegrating the pen that was in his hands and the surrounding floor.
" calm down. He said that as soon as he felt it, the signature disappeared. So it is most likely that he felt something else. If the drive did activate truly, then we would have felt it, and the girls would have told us. There is nothing to worry about, our little brother issei is fine." said grayfia, hugging her husband to calm him down.
" You're right. It might be the constant outbursts of power from some of the other factions trying to put barriers up and rebuilding their lands. All this work has got me on edge, and it doesn't help that we have had nothing but work for the past couple days." said sirzechs hugging his wife back before rubbing the drowsiness from his eyes.
"You've been working non stop on this work. It might be time to take a break and relax for a little bit."
" I agree, I need some sleep after all that work." said the maou heading to his bedroom with his wife to get some much needed rest.
Hyoudou mansion
Walking to the hyoudou mansion just like any other day was rias gremory and her peerage, with irina shido right next to them. The difference in them walking up to the mansion was the extra company that was with them. Walking next to their respective girlfriends were the guys that Issei had seen on that troubled day.
Holding the hand of Asia was Shiroi tora, a white haired guy with short hair and an average build who was a little taller than asia. He was one of the top athletes at the school, well known for his accomplishments in cross country running, alongside his half brother.
Having both akeno and rias holding his arms closest to their chests, was Shiroi Tora's half brother Tento sanda. Tento is the attractive guy that issei saw with akeno and rias in the orc club room. He is Shiroi's older half brother, sharing the same mother but having different fathers.
Walking next to irina is Shin raito, a slim and lean blond haired guy who was about the same height as irina. Shin is a nice well mannered guy but he can have times when his emotions can take over.
Talking to xenovia was Tanken testu. A muscular yellow haired guy who stood a little taller than xenovia. Tanken is a member at a kendo dojo where he trained in sword play and combat.
Lastly was a young light green haired boy named Gin happa, who was the same age as koneko and ravel. Standing about a foot taller than the two girls, gin was a shy boy who could sometimes see too much when he tried to fit in with others.
Approaching the mansion the boys were surprised to see the massive building with the two brothers tento and Shiroi asking if this was their house. But were surprised when they said that it was Issei's house. " wait issei, as in one of the perverted trio. The super pervert. This is his house, there is no way." said tento.
Still in disbelief the boys made their way through the gate and into the house where they all stopped at the entrance with koneko using her senjutsu to sense the house, causing her ears and tail to appear, surprising the boys except gin, who already knew what she was. " Issei senpai and kiba senpai aren't here." said koneko putting her ears and tail away.
" kiba must still be training with Arthur and Issei must be out. But not to worry, the main goal is to help the boys learn about their sacred gears and the supernatural world." said Rias, leading everyone to the library. Wear the boys were amazed at the amount of books there were.
Turning to look at the others rias assigned tasks to everyone. Telling the boys to read about their sacred gears, to have akeno teach them magic, irina and xenovia to teach them sword play till kiba got back, and had koneko train them in the physical aspect. Leaving herself and ravel to teach the boys the more mental aspects of life.
They continued this for a couple days, with the guy being exhausted by the end of each day, but in return they grew stronger and they were able to start using their sacred gears. Learning their origins and what their abilities are. But on one of these days a person appeared from a magic circle.
Returning from his training with arthur pendragon, was kiba yuuto the knight of rias gremory and the holder of the sacred gears sword birth, and blade blacksmith. Kiba is a well mannered young lean guy with blond short hair. Appearing in a magic circle at the front entrance of the mansion was kiba ready to see his king and his friends, but more importantly to spar with his best friend issei. " ha guys i'm back."
" Welcome back kiba, it is good to see you again. How was your training with arthur?" asked Rias, hugging her servant after not seeing him for a couple of weeks. With the rest of the peerage plus irina saying there hi's and hellos. The thing that confused kiba tho was that instead of seeing Issei behind the girls, he saw five guys standing there looking at him a little weird.
" Who are they? Would they be guests, we are helping? I can sense the sacred gears in them and I can see the exhaustion on their faces from training. Oh ya where's issei? I had a question to ask him and it has been a will sense we had a spar?"
" You spar that pervert. What is he trying to do to see how many times he can get his ass beat before he gives up. Cause from what I can feel you have a lot of power, and there is no way that an idiot like issei could beat you." said tento with a smirk on his face.
" ok i don't know who you are but you will not talk bad about my best friend in my presents. Issei has helped me more times than I can count and I will not have his name tarnished by someone who seems not to know a thing about him. And for your own information, i have only ever beaten issei 5 times and that was when he had first unlocked his sacred gear, everytime past that he has beaten me." said kiba with anger on his face, and about close to creating a sword to put the guy in his place.
Seeing the rising tension rias brought kiba to a different room where he asked who they were and why they were here. With Rias trying her best to explain what was going on, with kiba not understanding the idea that his king had. Finding the reason the guys were there and what had been going on as stupid beyond all reason. But at the end of the day he was his king's knight and he would help her with anything she needed. Like training the guys in swordplay and telling them about the thirteen longinus sacred gears given that the book that had info on those sacred gears was not in the library and kiba had been in contact or seen most of the thirteen sacred gears.
Reluctantly he agreed to help, but in the back of his head he thought that he would help but it didn't mean he wouldn't scare the guys and that he had to hold back too much. " Alright I will help them but I would still like to know where Issei is." asked kiba.
" I don't know where he is. None of us have been able to find him, but I could feel his evil pieces getting stronger so I think he is off training somewhere." said Rias, not knowing that she couldn't be further from the truth.
With issei present time
Waking up from his sleep, issei was ready to get some answers starting with why his sacred gear didn't work. " draig, why didn't the sacred gear activate? It has never done this to me before."
" While you were sleeping I did some looking myself, because I too was curious about the sacred gear. It appears that when you awakened your aura and removed your pawn pieces, the sacred gear thought you died for a second or two and acted like it was about to go to a new host. But then your body came back and it stayed but as if you never awakened it. I still don't understand how I am able to communicate with you though."
"That still doesn't explain how I could call it forth at the mansion but now I can't."
"The best I could come up with for that was that by using the remaining energy of the sacred gear connected to the pawn pieces gave you limited access to it. But now that the energy is gone. You will have to reawaken your sacred gear again."
" Joy, now I have to go through all that training again to awaken it. That also means i don't have access to ascalon anymore till it is activated. And here I thought i would just use the sword to help beat that vampire."
" yes you will have to reawaken it but given that you already know what to do it should be easy, once it settles back into your body. But that vampire, remember how I said it was familiar."
" ya, do you know who he is?"
" Yes, it came to me when I saw him transform into that bat-like form. But you will not like the answer to what he is."
" What do you mean, I thought all vampires could turn into bats. Maybe it was just a mutation in his power to change."
" Yes, vampires can but not like that. The only vampire that could change it to a monstrous form of a bat was the king of the vampires dracula."
" Wait, are you saying that I fought Dracula last night?"
" no he was not dracula, most likely one of his descendants. One of my hosts met the vampire king and I could remember that smell anywhere."
" So I fought one of his family. But I thought that the whole dracula family was killed many years ago by a family of vampire hunters."
" Yes they were, it was a shame. His children were mostly good but some were not and committed many crimes, bringing death to the family by the hunters. Dracula was actually a kind and caring person, who loved to sit and talk or read a good book."
" You must have been good friends with him then."
" My host was, I never talked to him, given that at the time my host was not on good terms with me, given that I didn't give him the key to the balance breaker. But it wasn't like I could just tell him. It's different for every user to activate."
" makes sense. I imagine that this host was not the brightest, and this must have been many years ago."
" Yes, many, many years ago."
Finishing up his conversation with draig, issei had a plan to find the vampire and stop whatever he was trying to do. Making it outside issei started asking around about any strange events or where some of the castles are. Hearing about how a little while ago one of the castles was vandalized by some kids causing a part of it to collapse. He also heard about someone else asking about the same things. ' i guess i am not the only one looking for answers here.'
Getting the location of the castle, issei made his way to the castle that was a little ways from the town up in the mountains. Making it to a forest issei increased his speed to that well above a human and dashed through the forest using his enhanced eyesight to not hit anything. Dashing past trees leaving a trail of wind behind him, Issei made his way to the edge of the woods stopping right at the tree line. Looking out and seeing the massive castle issei was both amazed and nervous.
In the middle of the clearing was a massive medieval castle looming over the clearing. " That's a massive castle. Is that dracula's home?"
" no, Dracula's castle was bigger than this one. This must be one of his other castles he had. But partner, do you sense that?"
" I sensed it the moment I saw the castle. How could I miss the feeling of death coming off this place."
Knowing that a descendant of dracula was inside, issei was a little nervous, but with the pride of a dragon he swallowed his nerves and made his way to the castle. Walking through the overhang of the gateway, issei could smell something. " draig, that smell is not blood or the vampire. I don't recognise it, but I can tell that its was recently added."
" You're not wrong, this scent has only been here for a couple days. A week at the most. But the smell doesn't make sense."
"What do you mean draig, is there something wrong?"
" it smells of a human, but from the amount of the scent and the mixture of other scents. Whoever scent this is, they walked in here of their own free will."
Realizing that someone walked in here with no struggle recently made issei curious. Making it to the front door, Issei was about to knock on the front door but remembered that this is the home of a murderous vampire that tried to kill him the other night. ' why am i trying to be nice here.' thought issei grabbing the door handles and ripping the door off its hinges.
Walking inside issei immediately sensed the vampire in the building. " You know you could have knocked. I would have opened the door and invited you in. that was hand crafted oak." said the vampire appearing out of the shadows as a bunch of torches lit the room.
"Sorry I would have knocked if I felt invited. But almost being killed has that uninvited kinda feeling to me."
" I apologize for my less than noble actions. I was in a little feeding frenzy after my meal. Happens when you just wake up after a long rest."
" ya i imagine. Mind telling me your name and what you are doing here?"
" Of course, where are my manners? My name is alucard first son of dracula, welcome to my castle. As for your other question, I simply want to live my life the way it should be lived."
" And how do you want to live your life? And I have another question, what faction are you a part of?"
" as royalty of course. I am the son of the great dracula, the first vampire and the king of the night. I will live as a new king in this era. As for the question. I will make my own faction, one to overcome these fakes that have taken my family name. They have sullied it so much that I have rid myself of the tainted name."
" I am guessing you mean the tepe's faction and family."
" don't say their name!" yelled alucard with his face changing to that of a bat monster for a second before going back to normal.
" sorry. But that fake family should not even be named in the presence of the true king of vampires."
" Sorry to tell you this but the factions wouldn't allow that and you would just be putting yourself in the cross hairs of multiple religions and factions, not just vampires."
" ah you see that is where my plan comes in, you see every member of my family has a unique ability. For my father it was his dark magic mastery, he could do things that normally only gods could do making him the king of vampires. My first sister could freely manipulate everything having to do with cooling temperature, be that from dropping the temperature of the area around her or even stopping the movement of the atoms in the area. My younger brother could shapeshift into almost any creature he wanted to. My second sister could freely control everything having to do with heat temperature, making fires and even melting metals in close proximity. But I have one of the most unique abilities. I can turn any creature into a vampire not just humans and I have full control over the vampire I make."
Hearing the words of alucard, made issei's eyes go wide. Understanding why he wasn't afraid of fighting the other factions. " You're going to turn a mythological creature into a vampire to fight for you against those who don't agree with you."
Alucard smiled wide, applauding issei. " Yes, finally someone understands the plan. This is the truth of why I was born. I was brought into this world to rule all, the more vampires i control the stronger i get and the stronger creature i can turn. With your help I will start my conquest of this world."
" Sorry but no. I would rather the world stay the way it is. And I think I am too powerful for even you to turn."
" oh you think i wish to turn you. No, I am not that stupid to wish to turn a being like you. But your blood will grant me the strength i need to start." said alucard dashing toward issei changing into his human bat form slamming into him and pinning him to the wall and trying to bite his neck. But being stopped by a black and purple shadowy metal armor. Pulling his head back allowed alucard to see issei covered in a shadowy black and purple armor that covers his whole body. " You bastard!" yelled alucard in a monsterous voice before issei got his arm free and grabbed the claws holding him to the wall and prying them off him and pushing alucard away.
Getting back to his feet and changing back to a human form alucard was about to turn to issei, but was stopped when a force was slammed into him sending him into a wall. Pulling himself out of the wall alucard landed on the ground and held out his hand, and within a second a long straight sword looked to be made of pure silver. Seeing the blade issei was sad not to be able to use ascalon, instead issei reached to the shadows at his feet and made two curve scimitars to fight with.
' partner be careful you might be physically stronger than him, he seems to be faster and from the stance he is in, he is a trained swords man.' readying himself and taking draigs advice, issei held his ground waitting for his opponent to attack and in the blink of an eye there was a blade inches from issei's throat. Parrying the blade away with his semitars, issei started swinging his blades at the vampire, landing a couple cuts but the vampire's superior swordsmanship allowed him to block and parry most of the attack.
After about a minute of attacking issei realized that alucards were only blocking and parrying, and not attacking. Creating space issei held his position looking at alucard who simply stood at his spot with the sword down by his side. " Why did you stop attacking? I was just getting warmed up. I will say your form is not the best but I can tell you have some level of training."
" and yet you have barely moved from your spot sense you tried to take my head."
" First lesson, waste as little stamina as possible. This is how you outlast your opponent in a fight. It would seem you have not learned this lesson. Let me show you a real swordsman skills." said alucard holding the sword up and moving towards issei and with trained simple ease disarmed him before landing a bad piercing stab through his shoulder. Going through his armor issei was surprised given that his shadow armor is almost on the same level as his scale mail. Seeing that he made it through the armor alucard continued to cut issei multiple times.
Knowing that if this keeps up, issei took a deep breath and let out a massive amount of fire trying to burn alucard. But the vampire dashed from place to place avoiding the fire until he saw the state of his home and got mad. Pushing off a wall alucard drop kicked issei into the ground sending him through the floor below, into a basement or dungeon of some kind. " partner you can't beat him, he has been fighting a lot longer than you and he is faster than you. You need to leave now."
" I can't right now. I need to hide, but how do I hide here." issei wanted to hide so as not to be seen by alucard. Landing in the middle of the opening was an alucard holding his sword with his red eye glowing in the dark. Issei had backed into a corner trying to think of some way to hide. As alucard turned to where Issei was, something weird happened. With shock in his eyes alucard dropped his guard. " the coward teleported away. Didn't think he would run away."
This confused the issue given that he was still in the room. As alucard looked around and nearly kicked Issei's foot, he scoffed and went back through the hole in the floors. ' draig did he not see me? I know I am covered in shadows and in a dark corner but he is a night hunter, he can see in the dark no problem.' I don't want to talk out loud.
' I don't know a partner but I can tell you one thing. Even with me inside you, I can't sense your presence. As if you disappeared, I think you may have found a new ability in your aura. I am guessing some kind of invisibility or complete presence eraser.'
Not looking a gift horse in the mouth, Issei keeped his mind on not being seen and started looking around the dungeon seeing a lot of cages like jail cells. As he was walking around, Issei caught a scent in the air. ' That's the scent from the front gate, I think whoever walked in here is down here with us.'
Hearing the agreement from his partner, issei continued down the hall till he came to a cell that had a long silver haired girl laying in it with disheveled close on. Seeing the girl issei could hear her heartbeat knowing that she is still alive. ' draig is she a vampire or is she still human?'
' from the scent she is human, but if you would like to help her i would suggest you check her temperature. If she is a vampire then her body temperature will be low.'
Turning into shadows and passing through the bars of the cell issei made his way to the girl checking her temperature. ' She's warm, not a vampire but this is too hot for a human, she has some kinda fever.' Picking up the girl, Issei could hear alucard coming down the hall, so Issei did the one thing he could think of and teleported out of the cell with a shadow step.
Hyoudou mansion training room
In the training room of the hyoudou house was kiba and the five new guys standing about to start training. " So let me reintroduce myself. I am a knight in the service of rias gremory, yuto kiba. I am here to teach you about sacred gears and about how to use them. But I have some rules that you will follow when with me. One you will not bad mouth issei hyoudou will be here. He is someone that I would lay my life down for and he would do the same in a heartbeat. Two this is for sacred gear training that means when we do sparing there will only be sacred gear used here. Other than that, just listen and ask questions when needed."
As the guy hear this they started to wonder why kiba would praise issei so much given that he was only a pervert who was terrible at most things he did. But once that thought hits their heads they realize that they are in his house, even though they learned it was built by Ria's family there had to be a reason why other than their daughter living here. " know how to help me train you, please tell me your name and your sacred gear and what it can do. That includes its balance breaker."
Knowing that this was the start of their training, the guys lined up and started telling kiba about their sacred gears and what they do.
" Tento sanda, and i am the wielder of the azure dragon spear also known as the spear of the east. The spear can act like a lightning rod and can summon and direct lightning or enhance the weapon and myself. Its balance breaker is the sacred armor of the azure dragon, giving me the ability to fully manipulate lightning." finished tento
' a dragon type sacred gear. So it is similar to issei and vali with a dragon's aura. But to think that he would have one of the four guardian beast sacred gears, if he is able to fully use the sacred gear and activate the release he could push his sacred gear to the level of a longinus class sacred gear.' thought kiba, looking to the rest to introduce themselves.
" I'm Shiroi tora, the half brother of tento. I am the wielder of the white tiger claws, also known as armaments of the white tiger. The sacred gear gives me the ability to make shockwaves from my fists and feet, which also have razor sharp claws on them. The balance breaker is the sacred armor of the white tiger, it increase my strength and speed and the power of my shockwaves."
' not one but two guardian beast sacred gears and they are family. The Odds of that are crazy, but that means that the parent they share is very strong for them to be able to handle the sacred gear's powers. It will be interesting to see them fully release their sacred gears, but one is a spear user and the other is a claw user, not the best for me but I can make due.' thought kiba as he started coming up with a training plan.
" I am Shin raito. Pleased to meet you. I am the new wielder of the aurora guard, also known as the guardian of polar lights. It takes the form of a sword made of a metal that shines light. It gives me the ability to blast light beams from the sword or a slash of light. Activating the balance breaker Radiant Guard of North and South, I gain a additional sword and have full light manipulation and the ability to use the aurora borealis."
' a sword user, i can work with this, but the light properties will make it a little more dangerous. But this makes it a little more interesting, going from two high class sacred gears to a med-low class sacred gear.' thought kiba thought of a sword to make to fight shin with.
" Tanken testu here. I am the holder of the phantom flicker or trick of the vanishing glass. Simply, it is a set of knives that I can teleport to instantaneously either by myself or with others. The balance breaker is where the real fun is, it's called tricksters paradise. It allows me to shorten or lengthen the blades of the knives and whatever the edge of the blade touches is erased from existence."
'Fast travel and daggers, if trained right he could be a really strong assassin. But his speed compared to others like me and arthur, he would be completely outclassed by our skill and speed. But if he could get better with time he could be untouchable.' thought kiba looked at the last guy.
" I am Gin happa, and I am a unique case given I was born with two sacred gears. I am the wielder of limit breaker or all of man, and the sacred gear beast crown also known as Regalia of the Monster King. limit breaker is a low class sacred gear that makes me naturally have the peak of humanity abilities, allowing me to run as fast as the fastest human and lift the same as the strongest human but that's all it can do. As for my other sacred gear, beast crown it gives me the abilities of any creature I kill. It has the unique balance breaker that has two different activations. One is the birth of the monster allowing me to summon the creatures I have killed and I can mix them. The other is the curse of the monster allowing me to manifest the physical aspects of the creatures i have killed." said gin looking at his sacred gears that take the form of tattoos with limit breaker on his chest like wings, and beast crown as a snake like tattoo eating a orb on his arms.
' two sacred gears, that hasn't been seen in a will but it does make sense that he has a low class sacred gear and a high class to balance things out. But to have to kill to gain power, that could be bad if he becomes hungry for power and starts killing things with no remorse. But now that they are done I can start thinking about a training plan for them.'
" mr. kiba…." shin was cut off.
"Please just kiba is ok."
" kiba, can you tell us about your sacred gear and about the longinus class sacred gears?" ask shin.
" Absolutely, my sacred gears are sword birth and blade blacksmith. These two sacred gears give me the ability to make holy and demonic swords of any type I want." said kiba showing his sacred gear as a sword came from the ground and into his hand.
" Wait, you have two sacred gears as well?" asked gin.
" Yes, I was born with sword birth, and I was gifted the other from an old friend. So unlike you I was not born with two sacred gears." explained kiba.
" So you can make any sword you want, that's pretty cool. Now we can get to training." said shiori.
" Actually, first I will be telling you about the longinus class sacred gears." said kiba getting the guys attention.
" Good now, let's start. First off is the sacred gear known as the true longinus, the spear that stabbed Jesus and is supposed to be the strongest sacred gear, and its wielder is cao cao. Next is zenith tempest giving the user full control over all weather and the ability to make weather effects happen, its wielder is Dulio Gesualdo. Next is the annihilation maker, allowing the power to make monsters whenever the user wants, with the user being Leonardo. Dimension loss is next and it allows the user to make their own dimensions, the current user is Georg. Regulus nemea is next and it is a battle ax that can split the world and can become a giant golden lion, it is currently a member of Sairaorg Bael's peerage. Next is canis lykaon a black dog that can create black blades, with its user being Tobio Ikuse. After that is the sephiroth graal, the holy grail that can bring back any creature from the dead, it wields our friend Valerie Tepes. Next is the incinerated anthem, granting the ability to make purple holy flames from the crucifixion of Jesus, and its user is Lint Sellzen. Absolute demise is next, which is a doll that controls ice, and its user is Lavinia Reni. The next two sacred gears dont have much information on them but their names are innovative clear and telos karma. The second to last is divine dividing one of the sacred gears of the two heavenly dragons, giving the wielder the ability to divide things in half and add the power to itself, and its wielder is vali lucifer. And finally is the other sacred gear of the two heavenly dragons boosted gear, giving the user the ability to double their power indefinitely as long as there body can take it, and its user is the rival of vali and my best friend issei hyoudou." said kiba with a lot of pride at the end talking about his best friend issei and show the guys that he is not who they think he is.
" wait issei is a wielder of a longinus class sacred gear, and it is one of the two heavenly dragons. He can double his power over and over to the point he can beat almost anyone." said shiroi
" yes, he is one of the strongest people i know but he is also one of the nicest always going out of his way to help others." said kiba
Unknown to the other people in the room but tento was having some weird feelings knowing that another dragon was near his girls. Not understanding why he feels this way but it must be something to do with having a dragon type sacred gear.
" Now that I have told you guys about the longinus sacred gears and you told me about your sacred gears. It is now time to train your sacred gears." said kiba creating two swords ready to fight with.
In issei's hotel room
After making it back to the room, issei put the girl down on the bed and covered her with the sheets as he went to take a shower and clean himself off after the battle he had, and to talk to his partner about a possible plan to beat alucard.
' any ideas, cause i can't think of one right now?' asked issei
' sorry but as for right now no. you have the edge over him in strength and defense right now but he beats you in speed and technique and if he turns enough people or other creatures he could start to close that gap in strength'
' you're not wrong but I could also have the edge in ranged attacks given I don't think he liked my fire and if needed I can launch my shadow weapons at him. But i dont think defense is one that will help too much given he did cut right through my armor.'
'Only parts of it and those parts were at joints and soft areas, he was also focusing his power into his sword and condensing it into a single point making it much sharper but it also takes a lot of concentration to do. If you could disrupt his concentration then your armor of darkness should hold up to his attacks.'
' I hear you on that draig. But speaking of my aura, I had no idea that I could completely conceal my presents and make myself invisible. If I can do that then what else can I do?'
' like i said when you first got your aura, you will have a natural understanding of it but the more advanced part you will have to learn and unlock through hard work and testing. But to think that you can become invisible is not the biggest surprise given that darkness is the absence of light and the emptiness of things. It makes sense that you can make yourself absent from your own presents.'
After talking with draig for a good amount of time, issei made his way out of the shower drying himself off and changing into some more comfortable clothes he had. Walking out of the bathroom issei's senses kicked in and he looked to see that the girl he had helped was up and standing on the opposite side of the bed from him in a defensive position.
" Oh, your awake is good. Are you ok you were a little hot to the touch and you were pretty out of it for a good amount of time?" asked issei putting his hands up in a showing that he meant no harm, but the girl was on high alert and did not trust the man in front of her.
Taking a step forward issei was going to sit down and talk to the girl but he slipped on a small puddle of water under him and the girl took this as a show of aggression and she lunged at issei trying to knock him out.
With his better reflexes issei dodged the attacks and blocked some grabbing the girls hands out of the air and holding them in place, but to his surprise the girl pushed him back a little. By no means was it a great distance. It was barely an inch or two but no human could do that, which told issei's one thing. The person in front of him is not human.
Applying a little more force, issei pushed the girl back locking eyes with her, but to issei's surprise instead of seeing the eyes of a fighter like he is used to, all he saw was the eyes of a scared and lonely girl who was fighting for her life. Distracted by what he saw, issei did not react in time to stop the girl from tripping him and pinning him to the ground with a big cry of strength. Collecting himself from the fall, Issei looked back at her but saw her eyes changing from their normal brown to bright yellow and her teeth becoming sharper. Issei could also feel her nails getting longer, but the thing that he was interested in the most was her scent and from that scent Issei made the connection and in his surprise yelled out. " YOU'RE A WEREWOLF!"
Surprising the girl as she let him go and she moved away from him holding her hand over her eyes as she backed into a corner. Seeing her nails go back to normal, Issei got to his feet and slowly made his way to the girl. That's when he heard the sound of water hitting wood. To be more specific, the sound of a tear hitting the ground he stood on, the girl was crying. " Miss, are you ok? I am not going to hurt you."
" Stay ...stay away." said the girl in between tears.
" I know what you will say. I am a freak and that I don't belong. But I am only here to help. But no matter what I do I am always the one that saves people."
The girl really started crying now, like she had been holding it in for a while. After hearing what they said it made sense to see why her eyes told the story of a lonely person. Making it to girl issei didn't say anything, because nothing needed to be said as he went down to his knees and gave the girl a hug. A hug that said there was nothing to worry about and to let it all out.
The girl, not being ready for the hug and not used to the interaction, tried to get away from issei. But she stopped when she heard his voice.
" stop. You're not alone any more, I am here to be the shoulder you need to cry on as long as you need." said issei, still holding the girl.
Those few words are all it took for the dam to break and for a river of tears and the cry from a lifetime of pain and loneliness. As the girl cried her heart out and clung to issei like a lifeline, issei only had one thought going through his head, what happened to this girl.
After a couple of minutes of letting the girl cry and get it all out, issei let the girl go and handed her some tissues, helping her to the bed as he pulled up a chair and sat in front of the girl. " Are you feeling better now?" asked issei.
" Yes I am. Sorry for all of that." said the girl.
" good, and it's no problem. Sorry for the late introduction. My name is Issei hyoudou."
" It's ok, and it is nice to meet you. My name is Luna hellsing" said luna.
" Luna, I like your name and it is also nice to meet you."
" Thank you for saying that, and for not running away once you learned what I am." said Luna looking down and holding her hands together.
" You mean learning that you're a werewolf."
" Well technically I am a lycan, not a werewolf."
" What's the difference if you don't mind me asking."
" not at all. A werewolf is a person that can turn to a wolf like human form but only on a full moon, whereas a lycan can transform any time they want. I am a lycan meaning I can transform whenever i want but i don't change very often given that everyone that has learned or seen me change has left me or tried to kill me."
" I am sorry to hear that. But you're safe with me, I am not one to turn away from someone just because of what they are. Trust me, I have seen some pretty interesting people."
" thank you but i have had too many bad experiences to trust someone right now but i will consider it with you."
" Alright, that sounds fair. But to show that you can trust me a little more, I will tell you that I am not human either." as issei said this luna's eyes widened and she looked at issei like she didn't know what to say.
" You see I am a dragon, well to be more specific I am mostly a dragon with a small devil and an even smaller part human."
" You're a dragon? There's no way you 're supposed to be like a massive reptile?"
Issei changed his eyes to his dragon eyes and grew out his wings and tail, to prove that he is a dragon to luna. Putting his changes away and going back to normal, Issei looked at the shocked girl. " see i am also able to transform partially, haven't been able to fully transform yet."
" That's so cool, with the black and purple scales you have. But that makes me think, what are you doing here in transylvania?"
" I am actually traveling the world to see all that it can offer. But now that reminds me, what are you doing here, and why did you walk into alucards castle?"
" alucard? Do you mean the vampire in the castle?"
" ya that's the one."
" ah ok. And to answer your question, I am here to get revenge for my family. You see when I was younger that vampire had an army of his vampire underlings attack my family home. He was trying to kill us so that we couldn't stop whatever he was doing. You see, my family is very well known for their achievements in hunting vampires, but we had slowed down on our hunts given that the vampires started to kill people less and less and we say they were less of a threat. But he had sent his underlings to kill all the vampire hunters to make it easier for him once he woke up. The only reason I survived was because of my lycanthrope, giving me the means to kill the vampires until I was forced out of my home to try and fight off the vampires. But I was young and didn't have the best control yet, so at one point I blacked out and when I woke up, my home was destroyed and my family was dead. From that day on I have been traveling and killing his underlings until I finally found where he was. But once I entered his castle I stood no chance and he imprisoned me, and said something about changing me."
" I understand now, thank you. He is the first son of Dracula, he has the unique ability to change any creature into a vampire, but he needs strength to change more powerful creatures. He gets this strength from the vampires he creates, the stronger the creature changes the stronger he becomes. He wants to build an army and take over the world."
" He was trying to change me into a vampire, and he wants to take over the world. That's just more reason for me to kill him."
" I agree, and if you would like, I will gladly help you."
" I would appreciate that, and once we are done if it's ok with you i would like to join you on your adventure to see the world, given that after this alucard is dead i will have nothing left and i don't know what i would do after."
" I will not force you to come with me and if I were you I would think about this given that you will have to follow me around the world and not be able to do what you want."
" i know and i will think about it, but for now let us plan what we will do to take out alucard." said luna starting to plan out there idea to deal with alucard, but unknown to issei luna had already made up her mind to travel with issei, given that he was the first person other than her family to accept her for who and what she is.
