And why is he smiling? When I asked for the reason, I found out that Vali came here by coincidence. But I’m glad Asia is safe! “Asia! Asia!”
When I called out her name, Asia opens her eyes slowly. “……..Huh? ………Ise-san?”
OH! She’s okay! I’m glad! My Asia-cha……
DON! I was about to hug her but I get pushed away by Xenovia! “Asia!”
Xenovia hugs onto Asia. Oh my, she’s crying like mad. “Xe…Xenovia-san. What’s wrong? I-It’s hard to breath…..”
“Asia! Asia Asia Asia Asia Asia Asia! You and I will always be friends! Friends forever! That’s why please don’t leave me again!”
Asia pats gently on Xenovia’s head. “……Yes. We will always be friends.”
“I’m so glad.”
Irina who was besides me started nodding her head down while crying. ……Looks like case closed. I made a sigh of relief. Then Vali comes to talk to me. “Hyoudou Issei. Looks like you are alright.”
“Yeah. Looks like I caused you trouble.”
“Well, it may be alright at times. More than that, it’s about time. Look up the sky.”
“?”
I was in wonder but I looked up the white sky of this battle field. Then…. BREAK! BREAK! A gigantic hole was created in the sky. Then something appears within from it. “That….”
I became shocked that my mouth dropped open because of what I am seeing from the thing which appeared from the hole. Vali says it while putting on a smirk. “Look carefully, Hyoudou Issei. That is the one, I wanted to see.”
A gigantic creature….. A true-red coloured dragon appeared in the sky swimming magnificently. Huge! He’s much bigger than old-man Tannin! It easily exceeds hundred meters! Vali continues while narrowing his eyes. “There are two dragons called the ‘Red Dragons’. One of them is the ancient dragon from Wales residing in you. Welsh Dragon. The Sekiryuutei. Hakuryuukoualso comes from the same origin and the same myth. But there is one more ‘Red Dragon’. That is the Red-Dragon which is recorded in Revelation.”
“Revelation……?”
“The True God-Emperor of Red-Dragon. Apocalypse Dragon, the Great-Red. It’s the great dragon which is called the ‘True-Dragon’. It chooses to live in the dimensional gap and swims there for eternity. Today, we came here to confirm ‘that’. The field of Rating Game is inside a section in the dimensional gap by putting on a barrier. This time, Ophis’s true aim was to confirm that. Shalba’s plan was something which wasn’t important to us.”
“But why is it flying in a place like this?”
“No idea. There are lots of opinions about it….. That is Ophis’s ‘aim’ and the ‘target’ I wish to defeat.”
Vali’s target……
That time, Vali showed the clearest eyes ever seen before. “The one I want to fight the most. The Apocalypse Dragon Great-Red who is called [DxD], Dragon of Dragon. –I want to become “The True God-Emperor of White-Dragon”. It won’t look good if the ‘white’ is a rank below the ‘Red’ when there is the ultimate-class for ‘Red’ right? That’s why I will become one. One day when I defeat Great-Red.”
So that is Vali’s dream. So this guy also has a dream. So the reason why he put himself within the terrorists is so he can fight that huge dragon. I know he’s doing bad things, but after hearing his dream, I realised he has a thing called a dream as well. “Great-Red. It has been awhile.”
-! Near us, a black-haired little girl wearing a one-piece was standing there. “Who is that girl…..? She wasn’t there before.”
Vali makes a bitter smile after seeing her. “-Ophis. She’s the Uroboros. She’s also the head of Khaos Brigade.”
-! Are you serious! That is the boss! More like, what is she doing here! Don’t tell me she’s here to fight me!? The small girl made a posture of shooting a gun using her hands at Great Red. “I shall, definitely get my hands on silence.”
FLAP
This time a sound of the wing flapping. DON! It seems like something heavy fell down as well! What is it this time! Wait, its Sensei and old-man Tannin! “Sensei, Old-man!”
“Oh, Ise. Looks like you are back to normal. I was scared about what would happen to you, but I knew that you will revert back to normal from [Juggernaut Drive] with that song and women’s breasts. You are the big-idiot who reached Balance Breaker by pressing women’s tits after all. Looks like it wasn’t a waste that I made the lyrics for that song.”
That song was filled with dreams, but that is too horrible! “By the way, the offer came from Sirzechs. That guy and Serafall were so eager in it that they composed the music and even made the choreography for it.”
Sensei, even I was shocked when I found that out afterwards. You can say that it is the joint product of the devils world and the fallen-angels world. The Old-man also laughs lively. “Hahahaha. To be expected from the breast loving Sekiryuutei! –Oh. Looks like something outrageous appeared while we were following Ophis.”
Sensei and Old-man also looked at Great-Red. “How nostalgic. Great-Red huh.”
“Have you also fought him Tannin?”
Old-man shook his head to the sides to Sensei’s question. “No, he didn’t even pay attention to me.”
So even old-man couldn’t become his opponent? Then that giant dragon, how powerful is it……? “It’s been a while, Azazel.”
Vali speaks to Sensei. “Did you defeat Cruzerey Asmodeus?”
“Yeah, but Sirzechs was the one who took care of him. …….If their leaders are taken down, then their henchman will run away. Looks like Shalba Beelzebub was taken care of by Ise in [Juggernat Drive].”
“And Onii-sama?”
Buchou asks Sensei. “The barrier collapsed, so he returned to the observation room.”
Sensei then says it to Ophis. “Ophis. The guys from the Old-Maou faction who were rampaging in each area either retreated or surrendered. –In reality, the Old-Maou faction which was controlled by the descendants is now basically finished.”
“Yes. That is also one of the conclusions.”
Ophis didn’t show even a slight sign of being shocked. So it doesn’t hurt them even if a single faction was crushed. Hearing that, Sensei shrugs his shoulder. “Among you guys, the group with power apart from Vali is the faction assembled by the humans who are either the descendants of heroes or Sacred Gear possessors. I think they were called ‘Hero-faction’ right.”
Hero-faction? There are still factions remaining in the terrorists group!? Ah, if I remember their organisation consists of dangerous heretics from different places…..
“Now, Ophis. Shall we fight?”
Sensei points his spear of light at Ophis. Is the battle going to resume!? And the fight will be between bosses!? But Ophis turns around. “I will go home.”
Oh my, looks like she has no desire to fight. People on our side won’t be satisfied with that, and old-man Tannin shouts and tells her to stop while spreading his wings. “Wait! Ophis!”
But Ophis just put on a creepy smile. “Tannin. The dragon-kings are gathering once again. –This will turn interesting.”
HYUU! When I thought the air vibrated for a moment…..Ophis has now disappeared! Oh my, she ran away! Sensei and old-man Tannin were making a sigh. “We will also retreat.”
Vali’s voice.
