Meeting Ddriag

Now, another question was forming up inside Issei's mind, he had heard of this term 'Sacred Gear' multiple times yet he wasn't sure what it exactly was but it did sound cool.

Kiba started to speak up the details of the sacred gear to explain it to Issei, "Sacred Gear is an irregular power that is bestowed to certain humans. For example, most of the people whose names are recorded in history are said to be possessors of a Sacred Gear. They used the power of their Sacred Gear to achieve their accomplishments."

Issei let out a whistle because he didn't expect to hear about such an information, however Kiba wasn't finished speaking, "Presently, there are people who possess Sacred Gears within their bodies. You know those people who play an important role worldwide? Most of those people possess a Sacred Gear."

Issei spoke out, "Ohh… I didn't expect to know of this information." Rias starts to explain him about various sacred gears, "There are many types of sacred gears. Most of them have the functions that are only usable for human society but some of them have the powers to threat to us, the devils and the fallen angels."

Rias urges him, "Now, raise your hand." This confused him and he even asked her, "Why? Why do I have to raise my hand?"

Izashi stared at him with that neutral expression which made it impossible for him to know what Izashi was thinking, he decided to go through with Rias's order and raised his hand.

Then, Rias further asks him, infact, orders him, "Close your eyes and imagine the strongest thing that comes to your mind."

Issei was startled and shuttered, "S-strongest b-being...? Like Son Goku from Dragon Ball Z?"

Rias nodded her head and further orders him, "Now imagine him with a particular force and mimic that pose. Remember, you have to imagine it strongly."

Issei was a bit embarrassed to actually do it in front of so many people but he still lowered his hands, he brought both of them close to each other and suddenly stretched them forwards in complete swing while shouting with full feeling, "KAA...ME...HAA… MEEEE...HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA..."

Now, it was surprising for everywhen when a flashy looking Red Gauntlet appeared on Issei's hand and covered it completely, "What the hell is this!?"

Rias continued to explain to him, "This is your sacred gear, the thing due to which you were killed by that Fallen Angel."

Izashi however kept on staring at the Red Gauntlet while Rias continued to explain Issei about the pros of having a sacred gear. He stepped forwards and touched the Red Gauntlet with his right hand, he closed his eyes and concentrated for a few seconds…

He wasn't surprised to be in a pitch dark place, he turned around to observe the place where he was in and noticed a large red coloured Dragon staring at him with curiosity.

It's ancient voice reverberated in the place, "Who are you? And how did you enter this place? I do not think that you are my inheritor, so how can you enter this place?"

Izashi cheekily smiled at the dragon, "I had like to keep that information to myself. Now, I see that you are his Sacred Gear huh… As for me, you can call me Izashi Gremory. A devil!"

The Red Dragon nodded his head, he continued to stare at Izashi with it's shinny green eyes and suddenly started to say in a prideful voice, "I AM THE RED DRAGON EMPEROR OF DOMINATION, Ddriag! Explain yourself, why have you come here seeking death?"

Izashi started to chuckle in a loud voice, "Hahaha… I see that you are one of the two Heavenly Dragons. But there is nothing that you can do to me, do you really think you can kill me here even when you don't have the power you had at your peak?"

Ddriag started to speak, "Who do you think you are talking to-" It stopped itself in the middle, it's eyes widened with fear when it noticed Izashi being covered by a Golden Energy.

This energy was very familiar to him, it asked him in a shuttering tone, "Y-You are al-also a D-Dragon?" Izashi casually replies back, "Dragon? No! But I am someone who has the pure bloodline of the Dragon God of Chaos! Now tell me, do you really think you can kill me?"

Hearing his words, Ddriag started to laugh in a nervous tone, "Hahaha… What do you mean 'kill you'? Did I say that? I don't remember saying anything like that. Please don't lie like that Izashi-sama."

Now as for why Ddriag called him Izashi-sama, it was because he recognized the strength in that Golden Energy, his bloodline. He knew that if Izashi so wanted, he could completely destroy Ddriag and Ddriag wouldn't be able to resist because of the strong Bloodline suppression.

Even though Dragons were incredibly prideful beings, they weren't by any chance stupid. They knew that it was a wise decision to let go of their pride in front of someone who had the bloodline of the Dragon God, Ddriag anticipated that Izashi had the potential of reaching a power of a Dragon God.

It was better to save himself by curry favoring him right now. Izashi was amused by his change in attitude after he used the Golden Energy.

"You know, you are pretty shameless for a heavenly dragon." Ddriag chuckled at those words but didn't mind them much, he knew when to bow and when to not. It was something known as intelligence…

Ddriag decided to ask him with a straight forward expression, "So, I wonder what you plan to do right now… There must be a reason why you got here." Izashi shrugged and showed off an uninterested expression.

"Nothing much really, I just wanted to ask see how powerful of an aura that you have and compare it with my Golden Energy. Seems like it triumphs yours." He finished speaking with a smirk on his face.

It brought a sweat-drop at the back of Ddriag's head, he thought of defending his pride at the moment, "This is just my spiritual presence. If I was at my peak then this wouldn't be enough to suppress me."

"However, I would like to ask you? Just what is this Golden Energy? Why do I feel that with this, you have the potential of reaching the level of Dragon Gods like Ophis and the Great Red?" Ddriag showed off a curious expression making Izashi smirk at those questions.

He shrugged off, "Who knows…? Maybe you are right about that." Ddriag narrowed his eyes on that answer, he had actually meant to probe him by asking him that question.

His deep and rough voice reverberated in the whole area, "Who are you? You don't seem surprised to hear of existence like Ophis or of the Great Red, you even knew about my presence in this gauntlet. Just what are you?"

Izashi was amused hearing Ddriag list out his questions, he actually knew that Ddriag was probing him because there was just no reason to state the names of the Dragon Gods in this world.

He gave out a mysterious answer, "You can say that I am a seer. I had visions about meeting you in another future. With Ophis and the Great Red as well. Though the future has been changed since my meeting with you is much earlier…"

Izashi dramatically changed his expression into a serious one which mistakenly made Ddriag believe that the future he saw was not a kind one, "A war is onto us… The flames of war which will swallow everything."

He said these words to make Ddriag seriously try to train Issei, if he could help it, he wouldn't want to deal with Vali. He had rather let Issei deal with Vali, though he was curious on how he would fare against the full powered Vali if he just used his Devil Magic.
