31 Vali's Request

"You know, now I am curious to what you are going to do against my Juggernaut Drive. Let me see it, alright?" He let out a deep breath and started to chant, "I, who am about to awaken, Am the Heavenly Dragon who has taken the principles of supremacy from God

I envy the "infinite" and I pursue the "dream"-"

Before he could complete the chanting, Izashi suddenly approached him and interrupted it by punching him straight in his gut, Vali couldn't defend against that since he was still chanting and crashed into the ground.

Izashi stared at Vali with a calm expression, "Didn't i tell you that I don't want to use it here? Let's fight using our true powers some other time."

Vali coughed out blood, he was surprised because this was the first time for him to be coughing out blood, he was the true descendent of the original lucifer, his physical strength was very strong even by Devil standards so why did he feel such pain after being punched in the gut.

Vali got up on his feet and stared at Izashi, "I see… You must be thinking about the humans living here. If we both use our true powers then they will become casualties of our fight."

"Bingo! I had rather not use my true powers here even though I do not have any obligations to not kill humans. However, I had rather not kill them if I can prevent it." Izashi responded back with a serious face.

Vali let out a sigh and said, "Alright, some other time then. I heard that you devils have your own places, the dimensions. Let's fight there, we won't have to hold back at that place."

Izashi was in agreement, "Yes, I agree about that. Now, tell me, why were you sent here?" He was a little curious even though he had anticipated the reason for Vali being here but he was sure that Vali wouldn't be here just for the reason of fighting the guy flaring up the devil energy, there must be another reason why Azazel sent him here.

Vali didn't really care about keeping his intentions secret, he responded back, "Azazel wanted me to monitor the fallen angels he sent here to monitor a guy for his sacred gear."

Izashi facepalmed at this which confused Vali, "You are too late, that guy has been killed by the fallen angel with the name Raynare. However, let me tell you an interesting information, that guy has been revived as my twin sister's servant, he is also the holder of the Boosted Gear."

The Wings on the back of Vali started to blink and he heard a very deep, rough voice, "What? That Red Dragon has finally woken." Hearing that voice caused Izashi to be a little surprised, he didn't think that he would be able to hear the dragon's voice inside his sacred gear.

"So, this is the voice of the White Dragon Emperor, Albion huh. Interesting..." He grinned when he saw Vali nodding his head.

Vali had a single question in his head though he was nearly afraid to ask it, "So, is he strong?" Izashi shook his head negatively, "No, right now, he is pathetically weak. You wouldn't even need to use your sacred gear to deal with him."

Vali let out a disappointed sigh and thought 'So, my true rival with the boosted gear is a weakling right now.' He heard another voice inside his head, it was Albion 'It doesn't really matter, you just have to kill him and I will be able to show that Red Dragon that I am better even after our demises. The long destiny of fighting each other generations after generations will finally come to an end with my victory.'

Vali ignored Albions' words, he wanted to fight someone against whom he could experience the thrill of a fight. Against whom he would lose if he wasn't careful, there was simply no fun in fight against weaklings. They would be defeated before you even know about it and enjoy the thrill of the fight.

However, fighting against Izashi was different, he could still experience the goosebumps when he clashed against Izashi, the tension he felt in the body. The tension that he finally found someone equal to himself, it was a refreshing state of the mind.

"Since you know him, can't you train the boosted gear? He is also my rival and I don't really want to fight against a weakling." Vali proposed this idea to Izashi who was in a deep thought.

"Ohho… Asking me to train that perverted guy huh. How is it advantageous for me?" Izashi was curious on what Vali would say and asked him meanwhile thinking 'Since, I am going to change the story, then I shouldn't hesitate anymore.'

Izashi wasn't scared to change the story now, he knew the power he held was enough to adapt to the changes that would appear in the story, he was also smart enough to anticipate what was likely to happen.

Vali smiled when he heard his question, "I am planning on making a new group. You can be the leader of that group along with me, they will consist of strong people like you and me. Though you may have to prove your power to them and the best thing is that we would be able to spar against each other to train."

Izashi replied, "I see… Alright then, I will see what I can do. But don't raise your hopes too much. It mostly depends on that kid, if he can't handle the training then he will die before even fighting against you."

Vali laughed out loud and replied back, "I wouldn't have it any other way. Let's go on our own ways now." Izashi nodded back and continued to observe him leaving the area in a burst of speed.

After he left, Izashi finally let out a sigh, "Those two have such a good teamwork. Albion and Vali, looks like I need to get used to this Golden Energy fast enough. Unlike Vali, I don't have an entity inside of me to control it. I have to depend on myself for this task."

He let out a tired sigh, "Alright, I guess I should return now. They must have returned by now." He was right when he saw them in the club room, though it was an interesting sight to see Issei whimpering while glancing at Rias and Akeno.

He didn't ask him anything, he probably witnessed Akeno torturing her opponents before Rias finished them off in her signature move. It was probably too much for a new devil so he didn't think much about it.

The red circle in the club shone, Issei had his head lowered at the moment and chose, "I guess I should go now." With that, he started walking towards the client's place from where the wish was made.

The moon was lit up and perfectly reflecting the sun's light, a light gust of cold wind but all of that didn't matter to Issei who was thinking 'I am a pawn, the weakest piece.' He sighed at the end of his thoughts with seemingly no confidence.

He entered the house because he didn't want to disappoint anyone after failing to do this contract as well. He called out for the client in a loud voice but all that greeted him was silence…

After entering the living room, he felt something spilled on the floor. He bent down and touched it with his hand, he was surprised after realizing that it was blood.

He heard a crazy laughter and backed away, "My name is Freed Zelcam. A priest who is a part of an exorcism organization, well, I am definitely not some shit like a demon."

"A priest!?" Issei backed away even more after knowing about the identity of this guy in front of him.
