"......No one's here. And they're not attacking. But I don't feel like shouting to call them either."

For now, let's briefly review the situation. 

First, I was attacked by Gasper and Kiba Yuuto, but I successfully repelled them. By now, they're probably enjoying tea leisurely in the clubroom. And all of that happened on the rooftop. 

After confirming that the two of them went downstairs, I waited a bit and then went downstairs myself. That's what just happened. And now, I had probably expected them to keep attacking today as the decisive battle, but no one had attacked at all for about 10 minutes since then. 

During that time, I looked around some classrooms, but for some reason, no one was there. That's strange, it should have been bustling with students when I came this morning... I know it's a half-day, but surely not everyone could go home so quickly. All the students were gone. I checked outside , but there were no sports clubs, just an empty ground stretching out.

"......The possibilities are that everyone was teleported, or I was teleported...... Between these two choices, the latter is the obvious one, isn't it?"

I was probably teleported around the time I was caught in Gasper's Balor's darkness... or at some point when the light was emitted. However, it's pointless to speculate about things I don't know. Especially since that's not important. The fact that Kiba and the others were there means it's a place I can return to if I was teleported. However, there must be some kind of preparation in case they couldn't defeat me... No way, but—

"......Should I try sprinting all the way to the old school building once? At this rate, my life is definitely in danger if I'm not careful."

I won't die, but there's a possibility I could be sealed... Stopping time would probably be useless... This is where I put on my milky white armor and sprint at full speed!!

"Oh, I hear a really unpleasant sound...! Oh no! That's a bad one!!"

I heard an incredibly destructive sound, and when I looked back while running, I saw the school building being swept away by a beam. That means a beam is coming right behind me!!

"Hyoudou, is that you!! I heard he could fire some kind of massive beam cannon!!"

If I know who it is, it's easy!! Running away is winning, or rather, it's dying!! That beam is fired by Hyoudou, so it won't stop even if I stop time! Damn, it's catching up to me!! The beam drew closer and closer as I dashed furiously. And the hallway, of course, was finite, not infinite, so...

"Ugh!? Dead end!? Ahh, I'll just charge straight through!!"

I increased my speed even further, heading towards the wall. With that beam's output, there's a possibility it could pierce through even heavy armor in an instant. So, I'll smash through the wall and get outside !! Thinking that, I continuously fired magic bullets at the wall while running. The strength seemed to hold, but cracks appeared surprisingly quickly. By the time many cracks had formed, the wall was already right in front of me, so...

"Uwaaah!!"

I leaped with momentum, unconsciously crossing my arms in front of my face to protect my head from damage, and threw myself into the air. I then fell according to gravity, but since I was wearing armor, I didn't take any damage even when I hit the ground. Normally, I'd think wearing heavy armor would cause more damage, but that rule doesn't seem to apply.

"But... yes."

"......"

Right in front of me... or rather, floating in the air, is Michael, completely ready to launch his spears of light. And he's right in the center of my vision... This isn't good, is it?

"You... deserve to experience a hell more terrifying than death. For 'him,' you must live in the underworld and work like a slave."

What is this guy talking about, is he out of his mind? I wouldn't do such a thing, nor do I want to. It's pointless for someone who can't even handle time stop to defy me, so I'll just stop time quickly.

"That's why I'm going to here and now—"

What was this guy trying to say? Well, no matter what he was going to say, I had no intention of complying—

"Youuuuuuuuuu!!"

"Ouch!?"

A strong blow landed on my stomach. A punch to the gut usually makes you collapse on the spot, right? But no, I flew backward, it's laughable. Huh? You don't feel pain, you say? Well, you know, it's like that. I just reflexively said "ouch" even though it didn't hurt. And even if it doesn't hurt, getting punched in the stomach often makes you want to throw up! Wait, who just punched me?

"I'll kill you! Absolutely!!"

I looked up, and there was a man clad in familiar red armor, just like the one I used. His voice was familiar too, so that's it, this is Hyoudou. Well, Michael wouldn't raise his voice like that and punch me, so when I think about it, there's only one option.

"...What do you mean, 'kill'? Don't blame me for something you could have prevented if you had just noticed sooner. Heh-buh!"

After I finished speaking, I suddenly got a good punch to the face. Well, it didn't hurt at all, but if my mouth gets crushed, I can't talk, so I wish he'd check if I'm done talking before punching me.

"Oh, that's right!!"

"Boost!"

With the power of doubling, another punch came without a moment's delay. He really doesn't understand my feelings at all. If I'm getting punched, I can't say what I want to say, so I wish he'd understand that.

"If only I had noticed everyone's abnormality!!"

"Boost!"

Punched again, doubling the power further. Come to think of it, no matter how many times I'm punched, it doesn't hurt, and even if I get injured, I regenerate immediately. Perhaps due to Ophis's infinite power, my recovery has grown so much that any wound can be undone in an instant. So, no matter how many times I'm punched, I'm practically unharmed. This never happened until I did it with Lilith... I guess I've gotten used to it.

"This wouldn't have happened!!"

"Boost!"

Finally, I received an uppercut, but... it didn't hurt at all, so I somehow managed to regain my balance. My jaw broke, but it regenerated immediately. It was my first time experiencing the sensation of my jaw breaking, but it was too momentary to truly understand.

"......But regardless of that, if I hadn't been here, none of this would have happened. I am the root cause of why everyone went crazy... That's what you want to say, right? You."

"You understand perfectly well!! Then right now, here...!!"

"You're aiming to be a Harem King, aren't you?"

At this single remark, Hyoudou's movements stopped abruptly. If I don't speak soon, Michael will seal me. Oh, wait, I just remembered I stopped time and Michael's movements earlier... Well, whatever, I'll just keep talking to him.

"If you're aiming to be a Harem King, you should have started working towards that goal from the beginning. Well, I found out later that you need to become a high-ranking devil to gain dependents. Well... even without dependents, a harem, thud!"

"I don't know what you're trying to say, but... stop mumbling and just let me punch you... I can't find any other option but to kill you...!!"

Seriously, why are all dragons so belligerent like this...? Vali was like that, and Saji too. I think Ophis was like that too, but she's cute, so I forgive her.

"Honestly... Listen to the end. I was just showing you an example of a harem."

"......What did you say?"

"A harem is about having the women you like serve you, isn't it? The method and process don't matter... If you only surround yourself with women who like you, it's clear as day that blood will be shed. Even if not now... someday."

I couldn't tell what his expression was like through the armor, but I continued to explain to Hyoudou, who was probably silently listening to my explanation. It wasn't to buy time or anything, I just wanted to say this much.

"If you're going to 'surround yourself with women who like you' and shed blood, then you should think the opposite. 'Surround yourself with women you like.' You just have to make them fall into pleasure and become dependent on you. That way, there will be no bloodshed, and even if it does happen, you can just cut them off or punish them and enjoy it. Simply put... 'Don't treat them as equals' and 'See them as pets or tools.' Well, that's just what I'm saying... Surprisingly, I've learned that doing it this way actually causes fewer problems."

"......Is that all you have to say?"

Huh? His reaction was unexpectedly muted. Maybe I didn't say enough? Or should I have said it more simply?

"...No matter what you say, no matter how logical you are, it won't change the fact that I'm going to crush you. There's only one thing I can do: punch you and defeat you. And I don't care if you die from it."

"......Hey, are you really Hyoudou? Your way of thinking has changed too much, no matter what."

"O mortal man, you have touched him. You have touched the reverse scale of Hyoudou Issei, a dragon who has obtained the powers of infinity and illusion."

The jewel on Hyoudou's gauntlet glowed and spoke. Ddraig, who was inside , must be speaking to me. I see, a reverse scale. If you touch a dragon's reverse scale, it becomes enraged and destroys everything... 

So I've touched it. 

The reason he seems to be in a lower mood might be the result of continuously touching that reverse scale even more after touching it. 

In other words, to put it simply, his anger has passed and turned into pure murderous intent. He's not angry, but he probably only has killing on his mind.

"I see... If he has the power of three dragons, then I, with two, have no chance of winning."

However, if Ophis and Lilith are considered separately, it would be three... but they have the same infinite power, so it's probably the same. I was thinking idly, but Hyoudou's condition seemed strange. Could it be that I was floating? Like a character who constantly makes jokes in a serious atmosphere. I am certainly "doing it" a lot in another sense, though.

"...Ddraig, full power. I don't know what techniques there are, but full power... no, I have to defeat him even if it costs me my life. So..."

He's mumbling something... It makes me curious about his conversation with Ddraig, but Ddraig is making sure I can't hear him... He's quite confident to be whispering right in front of me.

"Listen attentively, man who has fallen to the level of a beast. It is a bit wasted on you, but what you are about to hear is the unique incantation created by the Dragon God."

"————O crimson dragon residing within me, awaken from your dominance."

As if obeying the spiritual words uttered by Hyoudou, a scarlet radiance emanated from the jewel on his right arm gauntlet.

"————O crimson Heavenly Dragon residing within me, become king and roar."

Next, Ophis's voice was heard. Ophis side d with him... no, I feel like it's more like the will within the Red Dragon Emperor's Boosted Gear. Well, either way, I don't care. And with that voice, a jet-black aura was unleashed from the jewel on his left arm.

"————O god of infinite, raven-feathered black."

The crimson aura enveloped Hyoudou's body.

"O glorious God of Illusion."

Furthermore, a jet-black aura covered it from above.

" 'Witness our forbidden act, transcending all boundaries.' "

Hyoudou's armor, now imbued with hues of crimson and jet-black, underwent further transformation. All parts of the armor merged with crimson and jet-black, transforming their shapes into organic forms. And the voices of those two simultaneously sang that verse.

" 'You, like a brilliant radiance, dance wildly in our flames.' "

" '"D∞D!! D∞D D∞D!! D∞D D∞D D∞D!!!! D∞D D∞D D∞D D∞D D∞D D∞D!!!!!! D∞D D∞D D∞D D∞D D∞D∞D D∞D D∞D D∞D D∞D D∞D D∞D!!!!!!!!"' "

A deafening voice roared from the jewel, and all of it had the symbol of infinity. Come to think of it, they did say they could do something like this... Now there are side effects from it, but wouldn't it be dangerous to use it a second time?

" '"Dragon∞Infinity Drive!!!!!!"' "

A voice that sounded like a mix of Ddraig's and Ophis's voices, which I had heard earlier. It burst from the jewel, and the incantation ended. It was just loud.

"...Well, your appearance has changed quite a bit, hasn't it?"

"————Dragon Godification. The power Ophis gave me...!"

Armor that was a mix of black and red. The four wings on his back were equipped with cannons, giving him the image of a biological weapon. The strongest equipment woven from infinity and illusion. This must be Hyoudou's strongest power. That's why, only then, can I feel—

"With this power... I'll defeat you!!"

That he is the greatest wall in my path...!
