Chapter 15:
-At Azazel's House-
Azazel - Sigh, what kind of father am I... I can't even realize that my son need help so badly... *Sigh*
Azazel can be found sitting on his chair sighing because he can't help his figurative son Issei. And the worst of all is that he can't do anything to the one who hurt him so.
He still considers them all to be children, and all children often make some mistakes. But this mistakes they did are way beyond the line, if its any other girl he will just kill them right away.
But he also think the girls as his future daughters in law and come to love them as his own daughters. And to top it off, some of the girls have big background such as Rias and Akeno.
Both their parents and brother are the leader of the devil faction and the higher ups of the fallen angel respectively.
During the meeting they also discuss how the Trihexa could be sealed so easily, they were prepared for the worst like sacrificing their life just to seal it. But somehow the beast got sealed just when they are about to do just that, like it knows what they gonna do.
Azazel - I just hope this is just our feelings... I'm too old for this sh*t, just where are you now son...
-Kyoto-
Kuroka - Nyahahaha~ I can't wait to meet Ise-nyan~ I hope shirone doesn't took a head start against me, because I want to be the first who will bear his kittens~
Kuroka could be found rolling around her bed thinking about the boy she come to love. She's hugging a hug pillow that have Issei's face on it.
Yasaka - Kuroka. We need your help over here~
Yasaka voice could be heard from outside her room.
Kuroka - Okay, nyan~!. Well see you soon Ise-nyan~ *chu*
She gave the pillow a quick peck and went outside her room to help Yasaka. She's doing her best to change herself just so she can be with Issei, and she has became one of the ambassador of the yokai faction now.
Unknown to her. Her shirone already went beyond her expectations, not the good kind of expectation but the worst one...
-Issei's room-
Rosseweisse can be found at Issei bed curled herself while holding his clothes and pictures.
Her eyes are red because she has been crying all this time inside his room.
She can't believe just when she's about to confess to him, he disappeared...
And not like she can blame him for that, the other girls cheated on him for God sake. Its normal for them to be afraid, but to do this just because of it? Sorry but that's just went over the line.
Which idiot would cheat on their lover just because they become afraid? The fact the girls rarely have contact against the opposite gender might be one of the reason why they did all this, but that's still doesn't mean they can just cheat on him like that.
And they even have the gal to bring their new boyfriends to his house... Oh how she's holding herself back just to prevent herself from killing them.
Rias and the others might not realize this, but the eyes they have when they sees her are so lustful and filled with greed. It might only just for a moment but she knows that gaze well, because during her life she often saw that kind of gaze all the time whenever someone tries to flirt with her.
That's also one of the reason why she's still single after all this time, because all the man she have met so far are only want to get inside her pants or because of her position as Odin secretary.
But only Issei never look at her that way, sure he might leer on her but there's no twisted greed inside his eyes. And which boy isn't lustful at his age? It would be even weirder if they don't feel that way, well... Kiba is kinda weird himself because she never see him become interested of the opposite gender, but that might be just her mistake.
When she found out what they did to Issei she became disgusted.
Even now she still can't believe they did that to the boy who sacrificed his everything on the line just for them.
But she won't say anything to them, even their new boyfriends true nature. She will just let them finds out on their own about it even if its gonna hurt them, for what Issei has experienced is far worst than what they are gonna feel.
And she swore on Odin's name that when the time come, she will go to his side straight away. She will kill anyone who gets in her way.
Rosseweisse - ...Ise-kun, where are you...
And Rosseweisse fell asleep while still holding his clothes.
One of the reason the new guys have some argument with the ORC girls before is because they won't have s*x with them even though they spent the night together, but they have to hold it in because they thought the time will come.
But it never come and so they started to ignore the girls and went to spend their time with their other 'friends'.
-Somewhere Unknown-
Vali and his teams can be found training.
Vali is wondering where his rival went after all this time, while Bikou just monkeying around like always. Arthur also wondering a bit about Issei but that's because his little sister Le'Fay likes him.
Vali - ...Wonder where is he now...
Albion - [That energy we felt the last time are surely Ddraig aura when he gonna activate <Juggernaut Drive> but it disappear soon after, so we can't be sure.]
Vali - Either way I believe we will meet again at the 'World-Class Rating Game' and that's when we gonna find out the truth from him.
Albion - [I agree... Finally we will fight Ddraig once more, don't you dare lose. Vali]
Vali - Hmph! Of course.
Well both of them are gonna be mindblown for sure when they do meet Issei again. Especially Albion since he will meet his long late crush once more, while Vali become so embarrassed when he find out the true reason why they have their rivalry in the first place.
But he is more surprised from the power Issei possess at that time.
-Heaven-
Gabriel and Michael are sitting across each other, they both have downcast feeling after finding out the truth about Issei disappearance.
Michael is wondering if he should make Irina a fallen angel, after all she just cheated on her boyfriend.
While Gabriel is feeling sad for the boy she took a liking for, she never felt this way against the opposite gender before. She wish she could go to his place and comfort him right at this moment.
When she sees Issei for the first time during his Oppai-Dragon show she become entranced of how he is surrounded by the children.
She love seeing how the children adore him, and his pure smiling face, his honest personality.
And when knowing what he did for those he loved she became even more interested with him, and finally she took a liking for the boy called Issei Hyoudou for his perseverance even when all hope is lost.
Michael - *Sigh* I wonder if I should punish Irina for this... Its totally fine to be afraid but to do this of all things...
Gabriel - ...Let her be Onii-sama, its not totally her fault anyway...
Gabriel being the kindhearted girl she is rejected her big brother proposition.
Michael - ...I know, but still... *Sigh* fine I will just let Issei-kun decide her punishment later on...
Gabriel - Un...
Unbeknownst to Irina. Her angelhood almost got forsaken if not for Gabriel prevention, she almost become the thing she detest the most. The Fallen one, she's fine with the other fallen angels but she can't take it if she's the one who become a fallen herself.
-Semiramis domain-
Semiramis is looking around for information in Issei's world, then she found out about the 'Azazel Cup'. So she decided to let Issei participate in this 'World-class Rating Game' because she believe he needs to do this to fully forget his past. Even Scathach approve of her suggestion.
Semiramis - Fufufu~ even though he never told me about his past fully but I'm sure the one who betrayed him will be attending this event. And when the time comes he will let them all know how wrong their choices are.
Scathach - Ah! I can't wait to see him beat everyone there, hahaha! Devils, Fallen angels, Angels, Gods alike. None shall stand before him!
Semiramis - Indeed. Hmm... But this Trihexa beast seems weird, its supposed to be a strong creature but how come it got sealed just like that? Well. Either way its none of our business, we will only assist our beloved Ise in his actions.
Scathach - Fumu! I believe even if that tri whatever beast comes out he can easily defeat it. Don't you girls think so too?
She proceeded asking the girls behind them.
Jalter - Hmph! If he got beaten by some beast he won't be called my Master after all.
Jeanne - Un! I believe our Master shall prevail over all of the obstacles before him.
Jalter - And as for those b*tches who betrayed him... I will see them burn in stake when the time comes!
She says that with utter hatred and malicious aura surrounding her.
Jeanne only choose to be silent because she also feels resentment against those who betrayed their Master, she is a devout believer after all.
The others also feels the same way.
Scathach started swinging her spear around like she's preparing to stab something.
While Semiramis just give a chilling smile while looking at Issei's world. Her yellow eyes are glowing in the darkness like a viper stalking its prey.
Somewhere in the house a woman body could be found in a giant tube.
She has a beautiful face, long red hair and her body is voluptuous, like she's on her prime. At the middle between her chest there's a white mark that looks like a heart with a dragon wings covering it. That's the mark when a Dragon has already decided its mate.
If by chance he/she betrayed their mate then that mark will went grey and that same mark will took their very own life out of the one who possess it.
The woman's body is almost completed, it just need a little bit more time. And this body belongs to the old Ddraig Y Gooch. But her real name is Irene Belserion, well Irene Hyoudou Belserion now because she has chosen her mate already.
And her white mark will only become completed if she truly become one with the one she choose as her mate, aka have s*x with him.
After that, this mark will become completed. It will turn red and both of them will truly become one in every sense. Extra boost in power, etc. And she won't have to return to the <Boosted Gear> for Issei to be able to use her [Boost] ability.
-Back at Issei-
After his arrival, Issei headed straight to the <Adventurer's Guild> to register himself.
After all he got no money on him when he arrived here, must be Semiramis mistake on her part because she got no sense on currency.
And she never needs money in the first place because she got everything she need already.
Not like he's gonna blame her because he doesn't really care either way, he's already grateful enough for what she has done for him so far.
When Issei arrived at the Guild he sees its a crowded place, bunch of man drinking liquor, some are having a hand brawl, some are fighting in front of what it seems like a 'Request board'.
There's bunch of waiter and waitresses that have the same uniform taking order from their respective customers.
There's bunch of trophy from monsters adorned on the walls, such as Wyvern head, some giant fang and tusk, etc.
There's a neat and tidy counter on the side, it seems its for the registration and request related stuff.
When Issei arrived, some of them are looking at him because his clothes seems very stylish and although they can't see his face they know he's a guy just from his body shape alone.
But they thought he's here only to post some request so they ignore him right after.
And when Issei arrive at the counter, he got greeted by a pretty woman that looks like very young and well-endowed woman with fair skin, wavy blonde hair tied back in a bun, and gold-colored eyes. Her outfit consists of a red ribbon worn around her neck, a white off the shoulder low-cut top that reveals a large amount of cleavage, with black shoulders and sleeve cuffs, low-rise jean shorts.
Luna - Hello, I am the <Adventurer Guild> staff member, Luna. How can I be of service?
Listened to the question of the woman, Issei went straight to the point and says
Issei - I want to register as an Adventurer.
His words brought some attention from the man and woman around him.
But Luna isn't feeling surprised or anything.
Luna - Understood. Please pay a 1000 Eris as the handling charge.
Eris is the currency of this world.
Issei didn't any money with him beforehand, but thankfully he got some from the caravan leader because he protected them and some of the monsters he kills also have decent materials.
So the caravan leader gave him some money for it because when asked if he want to gather their materials he said no need.
Because of that the caravan leader gave him money for it because it went against his conscience just to take the materials like that. And he doesn't want to get into the bad side of someone who's as strong as Issei.
He got 100.000 Eris from all that.
So Issei calmly took 1000 Eris from his money bag and gave it to her.
Luna - Hai. Thank you for the patronage.
Then she calmly took the money and took a card from below the counter.
Luna - This is an <Adventurer Card>. In this world, all living being have souls inside them. Any existence, so long as it has a soul, which means a living being. Then you can absorb this existence part of soul memory, changed into the growth, a nourishment, turned into what's called <Experience Points>.
People after accumulating a certain amount of experience points, obtains the corresponding growth, that was so-called <Level Up>. (Plays sound cue of Ragnarok level up)
The function of Adventurer Card, can display the amount of experience points that Adventurer absorbs, and also display the Ability parameter, Rank and even Skills list. And through operating <Adventurer Card>, you can also carry on class transition and learn new skills.
Regarding Adventurer, this is the essential thing, rather, can obtain the power which most average person cannot hope to achieve, this <Adventurer Card> is necessary existence, is unable to lack.
Then, Luna put the <Adventurer Card> on the counter.
She also took out some sort of crystal ball with a funnel, and she put it on top of the <Adventurer Card>.
Luna - Okay, please put your hand on top of the crystal ball.
Issei proceeded to put his hand on top of the crystal ball. After that the crystal ball give a dazzling ray of bright light.
A ray gathered on the crystal ball then it shoot a laser at the <Adventurer Card> below it. Then Issei stats appeared on the card.
Then Luna took the card and when she sees the status parameter she let out a loud screech of "Ehhhhh!?" she became stupefied after looking at Issei card
And her scream gather more attention from their surrounding, they were confused why she would scream like that when she's usually pretty calm.
