The Red Conqueror

Chapter 28

Ophis: This... can't be.

Great Red: But it is and I cannot let you interfere.

Ophis: Let me go, Baka-Red, I need to tell the others.

Great Red: YOU WILL DO NO SUCH THING!

Ophis: You don't understand...

Great Red: No, you don't understand, I am keeping you here until the war is over.

Ophis: War?

Great Red: That is correct, your lover's father still lives.

Ophis: What?

Great Red: His father, Razevan Lucifer, is still alive and he is aiming to take over. His presence will make your lover crumble, unlike Issei.

Ophis: What has happened to him?

Great Red: He has rejected you haha, the ritual has been done and he is free, though some bonds are harder to break. Did you know that Azazel drugged the valkyrie?

Ophis: The valkyrie?

Great Red: Yes, Rossweisse is her name, she has silver hair, similar to your lover.

Ophis: He's not my lover...

Great Red: Shut up, Ophis, he is. If he wasn't, you wouldn't have slept with him, you followed those other girls trying to show affection to a bastard who was taking your power, just like his grandfather, having your body was just a bonus.

Ophis: No...

Great Red: I told you Ophis to shut up, you were deceived, deal with it. Issei has moved on and now seems to have 3 mates, though he has only marked two.

Ophis: I need to see him.

Great Red: You will do nothing and besides, the seal has been completed.

Ophis: What? - as she looked around, only to see a space of red mass.

Great Red: I have sealed you within you, you cannot leave, I will update you on things. Those girls are walking into a trap, they will lose and be exiled. The angels already have been removed from the equation. You will be kept here to keep you out of Razevan's hands, Vali will lose whatever power he stole from you in time and it will seek its source, which will be Lilith. She will become the new dragon goddess of the infinity, taking your moniker.

Ophis: You cannot do this, Baka-Red.

Great Red: I already have, look on the bright side, you will get the silence that you seek. I will also say that you did somewhat of a good thing to bestow that blessing onto that former angel. You might have saved her for now, but I fear that losing her will affect Issei. They may not be romantically involved, but it is hard to turn one's back on a childhood friend. You do know that the Gremory coerced her knight into seducing the angel to turn her away from Issei, right?

Ophis: Yes... I saw it... in Vali's plans, when you showed me his memories, he wanted to take it all from Issei and leave him... desolate.

Great Red: Funny how you say that word.

Ophis: Why's that?

Great Red: Because that is what Issei is... the dragon of desolation.

Ophis: He took the test?

Great Red: Yes, just before he performed the ritual and freed himself from you and the others.

Ophis: But his body would become unstable!
