Chapter 54 - Choosing?

Amaterasu arrived only to be taken aback by Issei's appearances. She could feel divinity around him that similar to hers that causes her to feel a tingling sensation. It was light far too pure than herself could hold yet he did not have any worship to fuels his divinity still retain it.

She wonders what is the reason behind this man's endless cycle of faith. Furthermore, Amaterasu hadn't seen someone attractive before with his well-defined frame and long fading brown hair only add his mystifying air.

The most frightening is she couldn't even feel his presence at times she can. It was as if he can easily disappear from existence. Furthermore, She can already see that fighting him would only lead to oblivion.

"My name is Amaterasu Omikami, It is pleasure to meet you, Issei hyoudou."

"It's a pleasure all mine, Kami-sama. Why don't you sit down and begin our discussion?"

"Fufufu Ara~ you seem a bit stiff after meeting my husband, Amaterasu-san. "

"I'm only surprised that he doesn't look how I imagine him."

"Well, my best advice is expect the unexpected when it comes to my husband cause he do the impossible."

"Ladies pleased we can leave the chatting later. It's best we proceeded to discuss then we can have casual chat."

Both nodded as Amaterasu was led to a balcony that oversaw a beautiful beach. The warm summer breeze made her be in peace of mind. She was shocked to see a simple door could lead to an artificial dimension. Issei had the appearances of his old home but inside it had doors that led to artificial dimensions such as a beach for Ingvild.

They are sixth floors and three basement of his house. The first basement is where his training grounds, workshop/Laboratory for Sacred hear and library of billions accumulated knowledge about his adventures was located. Sona always used the library fascinated with the wonders that Issei had written about the beautiful world he had seen.

Issei wasn't all about training and as he kept a journal about his life to give him a sense of existence. It was a way for him to remain sane after losing everything. A home, A family, A home, and a world.

The second basement is currently close but it is connected in the Sacred Gear system and world for the Administrator to live in. The third one contains a powerful runes that provide powerful barrier in case of an enemy attack. This two floors are prohibited by anyone to enter. Not that they can get in.

The other floors are the same as his previous home after the renovation beside the added bigger relaxing places such as the beach side. It provided them places to relax and enjoy the view as Issei also create a dimension up in the mountain that had hot springs.

They proceed to sit down while Diablo appeared with a stray in hand placing them at the table. Amaterasu was surprised that his servant had incredible power that she could lose in fight.

"Drink up, Kami-sama. Now then let's began information about the future."

Amaterasu intently listens to words about a mysterious creature whose power would be unfathomable comparable to the two Dragon God. Though the main concern was the terrorist the group that would soon come to all factions. Issei could see anxious faces and explain their cooperation which is quite simple.

It was to have peaceful cooperation to repelled those terrorist groups if time arose. Furthermore, find any good in her faction that might be a spy of the enemy. Amaterasu nodded knowing some war-oriented combat god would refuse to cooperate. However, she knows that if they fail in uniting with the other faction then death would be a mercy.

Issei finishes by reassuring that he won't let those terrorist and would provide support to all factions. Amaterasu saw her burning determination that radiates his mysterious divinity causing her to be enticing.

She wonders if this isn't the reason why her best friend enticing for him. Issei then proceeded to his plan of setting trap about peace treaty in their school. It would provide the faction who still hate each other have a common enemy who sought destroy their world.

If they are successful of destroying them at that time then it would be killing two birds with one stone. Issei is sure that Kokabiel will come due to his desires and the temptation of faction leaders in one place is a chance they won't pass.

But if they decided to not attack in that time then it would still be a great news. The three faction leader already schedule like the last timeline as Sirzechs was too busy removing moles.

She nodded being told to be on stand by and provide support when the right moment comes. Issei doubt they can be of help but it would ensure their chances. He is not underestimating them but a dark apostle is stupidly powerful.

"I see thank you for this information, Issei-dono."

"It was nothing as this is the reason was why I return to this time. I wish to fix the tragedy that would happened. Let's stopped this and have toast for the brighter future!"

Issei held out a cup of sake while Amaterasu happily took the gesture and drank it. For the remainder of their time, Both of them get to know each other while Yasaka watches to the side laughing at her lover and best friend interact.

Issei never truly met Amaterasu due to being one of the individual trap in the enormous dimension to subdue Trihexa. Yasaka was devastated when she found out about her. He didn't want to used his memory restoration as Issei needed a connection with the person in order for It to work. This is why Sirzechs and Grayfia work but not Ajuka.

Though unknown to him, Amaterasu was one of the outer gods that was being manipulated in order to not meet Issei. Now that they met the timeline is in his favor now.

In the previous timeline, everything was set in motion by the outer gods but now that everything changes it became difficult for them to reach their goals.

It was no wonder why the Shinto didn't try to personally assist her when cao cao and the rest of the hero faction attacked.

"Still I wonder if Yasaka is sane to fall for a guy who has massive harem. It's like their spreading their legs or something."

"Ara~ it is untrue. My husband took his time with each of us and give freedoms what we want. Are you drunk, Amaterasu!?"

"What do you mean? I took my time with them and I try to treat them equally. My conviction is my undying love for them and if anyone be it god, an army or a whole world. Nothing shall escape my grasp shall escape."

He took sip of his sake while looking at the beautiful blue sea. Issei looking at the horizon where the bright future lies. In order to do that then all that must be eliminated or subdue.

Upon hearing his words, Amaterasu could see an illusion where Issei stood in mountain of flesh that span out becoming a planet from the sheer size. It was then she saw the lifeless crimson eyes of man willing to kill anyone.

'How many did he have to kill in order have that much killing intent? Thousands? Hundred thousands? Or perhaps a million lives!?'

However, despite the countless life below him a light overcast his figure as he stood tall moving forward to the bright future. She felt surge emotion of such a lonely journey it would have been fighting all alone with your loved ones dying.

"I can see you love them willing to do anything for them but let me ask if you had to choose between Yasaka-san over one of your harem life which one do you choos-"

Amaterasu felt terrifying pressure weighing on her as she saw it. Issei eyes had crimson cross pupils inside the golden iris radiate pure utter death. She was only able to remain composed due to her divinity but it was frightening gaze. He spoke in manner unlike his laid back way from their casual conversations.

"'Kami-Sama' I wish for you to ask such foolish question but…I shall answer your question to quench your curiosity. I will not choose between who but I'll save them all even I have to sacrifice the whole world. Understood your concern as Yasaka is your best friend, however she is an adult and capable of deciding on her own."
