65 Chapter 65 - Battle part 6: Power

Despite everyone beaten stayed none of them loses hope. Their will to fight remains unshaken staring down at the person whose mockery did not sway their conviction. If they fell into the despair of death or what lies beyond.

Their enemy relishes the state they were in like a wounded animal while the predator to have its last breath. It began to gather enormous energy from the surrounding creating a small bead yet it enough to eradicate a whole army of high God class with ease.

Before it can blast them a figure appeared from behind the hooded person then instantly tried to escape but did not remain unscathed as a large part of the person body was turn into nothingness while revealing it's patchwork faces grinning in delight.

Everyone stared at the new arrival smiling full of loved and passion. It was their lover, Issei who was in his Diabolos dragon God scale mail while his crimson red spear hover over his shoulder. His expression was indifferent yet his killing intent was at it's highest. The sight of his eyes made it more striking.

"How delightful! You finally showed yourself! I was wondering when you would finish that guy off."

Without even a split second, she was able to recover her body without the slightest problem. It continued toe smile while looking at Issei. The latter didn't waste anytime move in flash doing barrage of attacks but was able to evade by his opponent.

He used [Infinite Chrono Stasis] to immobile his opponent for moment and did roundhouse kick amplified by [Infinite Boost] resulting in massive dusk cloud upon impact and sending it flying through the air.

Issei quickly teleported where his lovers were and everyone were badly wounded but not in critical state which made him breathe easy.

"Your late."(Vali)

"Yeah I know. I had to send Raynare brother outside but it was a lot harder than expected. "

Issei went outside where Rossweisse and Sona's peerage was waiting to helped heal raynare's brother. The Valkyrie didn't join the battle as she would needed to help maintain the barrier. Not because the author forgot to include her and surely not because his lazy.

"How was my brother Issei!?"

"He's alright, just need some rest. Anyway here. [Great Grandmaster Healing!] "

Issei used his own tier magic while boosting it enabling his to return back as if nothing had happened and regain the lost vitality.

"Alright! We can fight that thing without worry!"(Yuumi)

"We need to a way to finding it's weakness."(Rias)

"I can try using my balance breaker again then used my time stopped allowing it not used any it's power?"(Gasper)

"No, it's far too risky since it might cause unexpected effect. We can't be too sure of it's power."(Sona)

"Can't used that balance breaker, Sona-san?"(Valerie)

"No, don't! it's far too risky and she doesn't have full control over it. I still need time tinkering."

"Our holy sword seem to be effective. How about you boost us Issei?"(Xenovia)

"Yeah holy power is quite effective fighting that monster. Maybe this is gods natural enemy and not the devil."(Irina)

"Me and nee-san Kasha manage to kill them with ease."

"Yeah leave it to me and Shirone nya~"

"Issei what's your suggestion?"(Tsubaki)

Issei remained silent but then he released all of his seals reradiating an immense pure and breath-taking aura. His white hair glisten dancing with the gust of wind while the Diabolos dragon god scale mail vanish returning to his casual clothes.

"I hadn't told you this but I'll explain everything. For now, the rest of you try to defeat that thing while I finish of the puppet master. If I able to kill it then this thing follows."

Then his clothes change into something black and white robe garb with red streamline and silver armor on his shoulder. He had multitude of runic tattoo hidden from the clothes an golden ornament.

Then sixteenth bat like wings appeared behind him spreading its pitch black aura. Every devil had the urge to submit their very being and gaining a blush just feeling his suffocating aura.

"W-what's going on Issei!?"(Rias)

"I'll explained everything later but for now lets try to survive."

"Humph you own us a long night after this! Right girls!?"(Rias)

""Yeah/Absolutely/Agree!""

Issei sweat a bit knowing the bed would be restless for several days. He shook his head as vanish from where he was being met with thin black tendrils growing from the back his enemy who had got back up after being sent hundred miles away.

He let his lover grow stronger by fighting that enormous thing confident they would able to defeat it without a problem.

"How amusing that you have that power? You even turn it into a weapon!"

Issei used his spear to slice through the black tendrils and mucus that tried to attack him. He used his [Nihility] to get closer but it teleported from behind him trying to touch him. His instinct kicks in crouch down as he summon his spear in his hand grasping tightly then spun around to slice horizontal.

It spit the woman in half but the upper body took a distance away from him then regenerated her lower half. Issei didn't stopped his pursuit an flap his wings vanishing where he was appearing before the dark apostle eyes then tried to pierces her chest but was blocked by an enormous hand.

He then dodges another hand that tried to grabbed him. The dark apostle produce countless hands that move in pursuit but Issei used his aura to erased them then send launch his spear towards the dark apostle who manage to evade missing its target yet suddenly it did a sharp turn as it was able to caught its target by surprise piercing through its shoulder.

Issei moved closer while grabbing his spear then swung to slice the dark apostles head but spun his body when a hand reach out that almost touch his side. He resumed his attack behind but felt an invisible force hit him crashing down into the ground.

'A powerful Gravity manipulation. I should increase my aura to avoid that.'

"Maximize magic, Nihility slash!"

He perform quick three quick slashes that was able to create a significant damage to the dark apostle who's sadistic grinned quiver from shock. It was a modified spell of reality slash but used [Nihility] instead.

"Maximize magic, Hand of the void!"

Issei grabbed something in front of him then flew into the sky at the highest possible point then instantly descended. He slammed something into the ground causing massive crater. The dark apostle was in another crater with her body brutality destroyed.

"Fuaah! Hahahaha you didn't show any mercy on me! Well then, Forbidden magic, Gythmoxth."

Everything morphs where the crater vanish returning everything from before their fight. The dark apostle body was regenerated with few hadn't fully heal.

"Oh well I thought it would that easy. The wound couldn't even fully heal! Amazing! Well then I should get serious. Come to me, Yogxymyth!"

Then her lower body morphs into humanoid scorpion that instead of carapace it had human muscle that looked like a insect. It legs where human hands patch together like child drawing. Then the connection between her human and scorpion body form a enormous mouth contain razor sharp fangs while producing deathly poison that turn even the space black.

"Soul transfiguration! Mirror Reality!"

The dark apostle produce two enormous dragon similar to the one whose currently fighting his lovers but was smaller in comparison. Then from below images of many familiar faces arrive. It was rias and the rest of Issei lover.

"What!? Surprise? No I think you already been in this situation before right?? Hahahah well I want to enjoy you killing your own lover even its fake."

Issei pause for moment while his enemy enjoyed the silent. He had seen this over and over again when fighting the old generation of dark apostle along with few outer gods. However, it didn't removed his burning hatred at such trick.

"[Ayin] balance breaker."

A loud explosion form from the mere utter of one word. Everyone in the world felt the power of the weapon though none was able to pinpoint the exact location. Even outside of the reality where the draconic deus was something felt overjoyed feeling a fracture of its power.

"This surely getting interesting!"
