376 Everything is about to end

Whether it was Issei, Gasper, or the others, they had a chill and realized they were about to be killed! 

"ARRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!" 

Issei wasn't sure where this power came from, but as he wished to protect everyone, he used his power to protect everything from this catastrophe as expected. As it was so sudden and had so much might, the numbers that he could protect were limited. 

Still, those who weren't protected by Issei were all instantly killed, and there was no resistance. 

If there was something that they were glad for, they were glad that their death was painless. 

Nevertheless, Riser was surprised by how strong Issei had become. Was this the power of the god of another world? He could tell that Issei's body exuded a strange divinity, which made him appear different from others. It was like this guy was a god, but it was also because of this that he felt the world was really such a bastard. 

It was so easy to kill Issei before, but when Issei suddenly returned, his power dramatically increased. 

Riser could tell that Issei was as strong as the Great Red, or even slightly stronger. Yet, when he thought about how a god from another world could contact Issei without being noticed, he knew that he needed to take those creatures from another world seriously.

Nevertheless, while Riser was thinking about the creatures from another world, Issei was enraged. "RISEEEEEERRRRR!" 

There was no trace of respect, and what was left was only hatred since, at this moment, he could see how evil Riser was. 

Due to the Riser attack, there was no trace of anything. The majority of the living beings that lived on this territory burned into nothingness directly, and those who could stay alive were those who stayed behind him. 

At this moment, everyone was filled with both fear and hatred, especially those from the devil. 

"WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO US!?" 

"WHY DO YOU HAVE TO KILL US?!" 

"IS THIS HOW THE ALLIANCE WILL BE?!" 

All the nobles cried and shouted furiously toward the de facto leader of the alliance, Lucifer Riser. Even if Riser was frightened, how could they control their emotions when they saw many of their loved ones were killed? If they weren't lucky with their meeting position to be behind Issei, then they knew that they would be on the same fate as those who were killed! 

So, there was no way for them to control their emotions!

Yet, while the vampires were enraged, like Issei, Sirzech, Ajuka, Azazel, and others, they had a complicated mood as they didn't expect Riser to grow into such a monster. 

"Georg, we need to run away!" 

Nevertheless, Gasper knew from the future that they needed to run away. It wasn't that he didn't think that Issei wasn't Riser's opponent. As long as Issei worked harder, the defeat of Riser was just in front of their eyes, yet Issei didn't even have time to train!

Riser didn't even give them time to breathe, and he directly attacked them!

As of the moment, all of them, except for the vampires, wondered whether Riser had been waiting for Issei to return from death. All this time, Riser just let them go, waiting patiently, and when all of them were inside the net, he took all of them down! 

They were unable to talk, and their lips were trembling, thinking about what they should do, but they also agreed with the decision of Gasper from the future to run away. 

"Wait! He can teleport anyone to his side!" Azazel quickly remembered something, but as expected, it was too late. 

Whether it was Georg or Valerie, the two of them were already in Riser's hands. 

"GEORG!!!" 

"VALERIE!!!" 

Yet, no matter how hard they screamed or tried to help those two, everything was too late. 

Riser took out the Longinus within the two and threw them away, killing them. Georg aside, probably others might feel that it was a shame for Valerie, but this woman was so vicious, wishing to kill him with the army of the death. Was there even a point to keep her then?

"RISEEEEERRRRRR!" 

Gasper from the future was furious, and he lost his mind directly, but before he did anything, his body was cut in half. Fortunately, he was able to return to the past and stay alive once again, but once again, he was cut, but he stayed alive once again by using the power of time. 

Riser felt that Gasper was troublesome, so he thought he would take out the Sacred Gear of Gasper in the future, but then, if he couldn't kill Gasper, then he might as well torment him. 

Still, Azazel saw this plan. "HURRY UP AND STOP HIM! ATTACK HIM!" He knew that their situation was at its worst, but as long as Issei could do something, they would be able to save this world! 

"ARRRRRGGGGHHH!!!" 

As Gasper's body was burnt by the eternal fire, the others started to attack Riser. 

The hero faction, especially Leonardo, the owner of the Annihilation Maker, is a high-tier Longinus with the ability to create any creature that the possessor can imagine. He directly sacrificed himself and turned himself into a 1,000-tall monster made of light to destroy Riser.

Sirzech and Ajuka also used their everything to stop Riser, but suddenly, their bodies stopped. 

"D-Dammit..." 

"As expected, huh?" 

As Riser had taken Sephiroth Graal out of Valerie's body, Riser had taken control over their bodies, and it was also due to this that the two of them attacked Leonardo, who had become a monster. 

Facing all of them, there was no trace of mercy on him, especially when he had decided to kill all of them. 

"Hurry up and attack him! Kill him! Otherwise, we will be killed!" 

Yet, after saying those words, Azazel died. 

With the power of Sephiroth Graal, Riser controlled them, and along with the power of "Mirror Lion," his control over this Longinus was stronger. 

At this moment, no one could stop him, and it was just a time before he was about to die. 

Still, watching how many of those who still had the will to fight, Riser wondered whether the aura of the protagonist was as strong as ever, but it didn't matter. 

Suddenly, the world lost its color, and black lightning flashed all over his body, bringing a powerful impact to all the present. Those who couldn't endure it directly died, or rather, all of them died. 

Riser ignored Issei and focused on Gasper from the future, yet how could Issei allow all of this?! 

"AARRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH

"I WON'T FORGIVE YOU!!!!

"RISEEEEERRRRR!!!!

"DIVINE DRAGON!!!!" 

His armor's shape and the armor's color changed from pure crimson to a mix of crimson and white. Additionally, this form gained a total of four wings, each one containing a cannon. Two of the cannons are over his shoulders, and the other two are under his arms.

This was the power he newly gained from Chichigami!

Divine Dragon!

"HEAVENLY BLASTER!!!!" 

The four cannons on his wings aimed at Riser before Issei shot out a powerful holy aura blast, intending to kill Riser!

Yet, Riser didn't dodge, and he just raised Gasper, which he grasped in his hand on this blast. 

"Wa—" 

Issei wanted to stop this attack, but it was too late! 

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!*

The world, the space, and everything shook. 

Due to this attack, the firm space cracked like a broken mirror before it was destroyed, returning them to reality. 

Yet, while Issei was wallowing in regret due to his rash actions, Ddraig quickly reminded him. 

"Partner!" 

"Wha—" 

Under the destruction, Riser stood in midair calmly, completely unscathed.
