Question: What is your favorite FNF song, mods are also allowed? Mine is Golden Land from Mario Madness as well as Thunderstorm from the Shaggy Mode
Previously we saw that the final hours in saving Valerie, the enter the trapdoor that was present in Marius's throne room, Issei along with Vali, Saji and Gasper then go downstairs the Hatch there they see more Vampires and Humans that were victims of the experiments, they are released after that thanks to the four. They then proceed even downwards where they could see Marius forcing her sister to use the Sephiroth Graal to enhance the Vampires as well as convert several of them into evil dragons, despite her begging her brother to stop Marius ignores her pleas, this causes Gasper to go after the Pure blooded Vampire, much to his anger. Despite his overwhelming regeneration, Gasper was able to defeat him and torture him to death, after which he along with Issei, Vali and Saji then release Valerie from her prison, that was when Issei hears a voice which he would not be surprised that he would hear. Rizevim, the leader of the Khaos Brigade has come to stop them himself, Vali tells the gang that he would stall time for the rest of the them to escape with Valerie, which Issei and the others agree to do so. After successfully saving Valerie, Vali fight Rizevim, only for him to be overwhelmed brutally, Issei manages to save him before Vali could get killed by Rizevim, Issei then focuses on Rizevim trying to fight him for what he has done. Issei manages to overwhelm him by using Trihexa's aura preventing him from using his sacred gear canceller but this was not enough to put him down, given his immense demonic power as well as mastery in hand to hand combat, he was one of the three super devils after all. Forcing Issei to use his Trihexa mode, unfortunately Rizevim was not strong enough to keep up with the strong aura and was forced to use his strongest attack to try to kill Issei but Issei counteracts with his strongest move, Black Sun, nullifying it and using it against him. This however exposes Issei as the wielder of the beast of apocalypse to Rizevim much to his happiness despite his condition, he still tried to smile and force Trihexa against him, but he once again fails much to his anger. Issei tries to subdue him but he manages to escape from him, but not before telling him that he will be back. This results in a total victory for the alliance, with the Vampires later being part of the Alliance as well as unifying after the Khaos Brigade's attempt to attack and destroy them in order to get their access on the Holy Grail. After that they celebrate their victory. Elsewhere, Euclid and a bloody and beaten Rizevim regroup before deciding what needs to be done next, they promised to destroy anyone that gets in their way. Meanwhile, Azazel goes to confront Indra, about his involvement with the Khaos Brigade, to which the latter responds that he knew about the location of the True Longinus, when asked why, he simply responded that he does not trust the faction leaders and he would kill Issei if he were to ever step out of line, to which Azazel laughs at his statement much to his anger. He then calms down and asks Azazel just to keep the boy in check as he does not have any intention to kill him, but he will be the judge of his true nature, to which Azazel agrees.
A month later
Issei could be seen wondering what he needs to do next, there has been no response given from the Khaos Brigade, I mean they have been stalled from not getting the third Holy Relic given that the wielder of the Sephiroth Graal, Valerie Tepes decided to live with Issei along with Gasper Vladi as a means of safe keeping since they know that Rizevim might come after them in the near future. Issei knew that they have both the wielder of the Holy Spear, via Cao Cao and the wielder of the Holy Cross, Walburga are with the Khaos Brigade. Issei knew that the Khaos Brigade had to be stopped before it is too late. That was when his mother called him snapping him out from his train of thought
Miki: Issei, Azazel-sensei is here to see you
Issei is surprised, usually he would call Issei on his phone or via. the magic circle but him coming here could only mean one thing that this is important. Issei immediately rushed to meet Azazel only to reveal that he had none other than a child dressed as a gothic girl. Issei recognized this person as Ophis
Issei: Ophis?!?!? What are you doing here?
Ophis, the girl then looked up at Issei and responded
Ophis: I am here to study you, I mean you have my powers and aura as well as Great Red's body as well, I just am curious as to why you have them, not that I am against you having my blessing, I just want to know how you got them
Azazel: Vali, bought them all of a sudden, because of them now being targeted by the Khaos Brigade, considering you guys managed to foil them from getting the Holy Grail
Issei: Okay then, what do you want to know?
Ophis: First, I want to know why you performed a reset, Issei
Ophis said with a smile revealing their curiosity, Issei sighed he bought some sweets for the Dragon god, who wondered what this is
Ophis: Issei, what is this
Issei: That's what you call Chocolate, try it Ophis you might like it
Ophis then tastes the Chocolate, she enjoys the chocolate, this is much better given that she never tried Chocolate before, Issei only hoped that Chara would not mind if some of her chocolate goes missing.
Ophis: T-This is much better, I prefer chocolate, living here is far better.......
Issei smiled and responded
Issei: I am glad that you liked it Ophis. Now as for your first question, let me activate your memories first.
Issei then activated Ophis's memories, they looked at Issei as to now why he managed to gain Ophis's blessing as well as Great Red's body, she got most of her answers, on seeing him after a long time, they immediately hug Issei after seeing him a long time later, which Issei return is full. After separating for a while, she remembers that Issei is the one who was their first friend as well the one that gave them a place to stay after Cao Cao's betrayal. They saw Issei as a sort of father figure with Rias being the sort of mother figure for them
Ophis: I missed you Issei.........
Issei: I missed you too Ophis.
Ophis: Now may I know why you performed a reset?
Issei: Alright, before I do, you need to promise me something
Ophis: Alright....
Issei: You will not hurt the people responsible for what they did in the previous timeline, no matter what, they did not do the crime this time, alright Ophis
Ophis: Okay Issei......
Issei then began to tell him after the defeat of the beast, what had happened, he fell into a comatose, when he woke up, he realized that none of the girls had visited him in the hospital, the only people that visited him were Azazel and Vali and his team. After which he heads home only to receive the biggest shocker of his life Rias and Akeno the woman he had given his heart to were fucking a man, cheating on him behind his back, he also heard them not only insulting him but also insulting Sirzechs as well calling him a fool and an idiot. He then left cause he could not bear them anymore
He then headed towards the park with his doubts, but that was when the other girls, Xenovia, Irina, Ravel and Koneko were present with their boyfriends, even they only tolerated Issei because of his perversion, they also insulted and humiliated him given that he was present listening to everything, that was where he discovered another truth that Rias had let him die at the hands of the fallen angel, shocking Issei to the very core causing him to suffer from an infamous disease known as Dragon's fall.
Kiba who was also present at the same time was there to be present for his brother till the very end, he had called Azazel to help him with the disease, but even he was helpless, the evil pieces were accelerating the fall to an alarming rate, they were eating him alive, He then saw this his parents along with the Vali Team had visited him as a means to help him cope with the disease with Kuroka even willing to mate with him if she wanted to see him alive. Koneko was shocked on hearing this. Meanwhile Le Fay was working with Azazel to remove the pieces. The next was a portal revealing Gasper, Asia and Rosswiese who were also there to provide Issei with comfort in his possible final moments
That was when time had stopped he encountered two entities the first being the beast of apocalypse Trihexa, he offered him a favor given that Issei released him from Rizevim's control, he removed his evil pieces therefore altering his body to that akin to a dragon god, it was a painful process but it was worth it. After which he encountered Chara in the same dimension who showed him his soul trait and asked him what he was going to do next, Issei then informed her that his goal will still be unchanged to matter what happens, he then releases the time barrier and tells the people present about what had happened, they in the end all agree that this timeline should stay as a bad dream.
Azazel kept his head down as it reminded him of all the bad memories that happened to Issei, he knew that no matter what some things will always keep coming back no matter what. Ophis on the other hand kept her expression emotionless but deep down she was livid, she was familiar with the Dragon's Fall disease, she wanted to release her snakes that would torment Rias and the other traitors for all eternity but Issei would never want her to do that, they knew that Issei would not want to punish them despite everything she did to him, that is why they took an interest to him. Ophis then asked
Ophis: How did you manage to convince the beast to side with you?
Trihexa responded from the boosted gear
Trihexa: Hello Ophis.........it has been a while indeed
Ophis: It has been Trihexa, I thought you went insane or at least that has been the story told, judging by your expression you seem to be quite sane, at least sane enough to talk
Trihexa: Ophis, there is a lot to tell you about, remember God of the Bible?
Ophis: Yeah who could forget that old paranoid man, sorry Azazel
Azazel: Eh no biggie, he did some mistakes after all.
Trihexa: He sealed me away, he was afraid at what I was capable of while you were hiding and Great Red went into the Dimensional Gap, I was left alone, that was when God and the four satans had the bright idea of sealing me away because of their fear. I put up a fight but in the end got myself sealed
But thanks to Rizevim, I was released given that I had lost my mind, it was easy for him to release me as the mindless beast that wreaked havoc, I was eventually defeated by my now current host with your power
Ophis: Yes, yes I remember, sorry for not visiting you Issei, while you were in the hospital
Issei: It's alright, I knew you had something else to do
Ophis smiled, Trihexa then continued
Trihexa: After my defeat, I was wandering the eternal planes, I was still partially alive, that was when I saw Issei in a condition that was all too familiar, I realized that he suffered from Dragon's fall, I decided to help him remove those pieces, honestly I have no regrets having him as my host, I get along with Draigg surprisingly well
Draigg: Indeed, Trihexa is such an amazing room mate, he helped me through so many troubles, thanks to Issei, I found my mate, I owe both of them for getting me so far, without them I would never have been this happy, with any other host
Issei: Thanks guys
Ophis: Speaking of which what are the changes this time
Issei: A lot and I mean a lot
Ophis: I am listening, I got a lot of time now, so please do tell
Issei then told her how Raynare became his girlfriend, from him meeting Asia, dealing with Raynare's now former friends and they fought and beat them, him being Sona's fiancée, then his fight with Riser and Sona's former fiancée, him first time falling to HATE, him meeting up with the exorcists, him fighting Kokabiel, defeating him, the peace conference, his meeting up with his future in laws, his training as well as getting stronger, his fight with Diodara which Ophis knew, the entire Kyoto arc and finally the Romania arc
Ophis intently listened to what Issei told her about the timeline changes, needless to say they was surprised that one reset can cause so many changes, they knew that Issei is not the type of man to abandon the people that he loves, they were most surprised when Raynare became his girlfriend, despite knowing that she was the one responsible for the curse as well as nearly breaking his heart, nevertheless they were happy for Issei, Issei decided to introduce Ophis to the rest of the house
Sona and Raynare were terrified about the Ouroboros Dragon doing in their house, while the others took her entry quite well, considering the fact that she is one of the most strongest entities out there, when they asked Asia informed them that Ophis stayed with Issei in the previous timeline as well, after Ophis told her that she remembers the previous timeline, Raynare looks down, but Issei tells her that Ophis is not mad at her for what that Raynare did to him, much to her happiness. They then get along very well, and celebrate
After a while, Issei and Azazel talk in secret, Issei informs him that Rizevim has come to know about the existence of the beast inside his body, which was shocking to him, but what was even more shocking was that Trihexa utterly refused to help Rizevim achieve his goals of destruction on conquering the other worlds, in fact is anything Trihexa despises Rizevim, so he will never help him ever again, much to his relief.
Azazel: Thank god, that Trihexa will never help that man, honestly I am not surprised that Rizevim has practically no one to help him in his goals, aside from his pawns and slaves.
Issei: Yeah, so what is going to happen like how the leaders will react?
Azazel: They possibly knew what will happen next considering the fact that Rizevim did find out about the beast's missing location sooner or later, but yes we did manage to stop Rizevim from getting the holy grail and the Leaders are Grateful for your actions Issei
Issei: So what's next?
Azazel: Well remember Indra?
Issei: Yeah?
Azazel: He wanted to test you, he does not trust the faction leaders, he wants to test you in what kind of a person you are, in other words he has issued a challenge to fight against you.
Issei: Wait..........what?
Azazel: Yeah, he wants to test you to see who you really are?
Issei: Alright then I accept
Azazel: Issei are you sure, the one you are facing is in the top 10 strongest beings, I mean he is much stronger than Rizevim.
Issei: I can't deny a challenge like this, it is an insult to my pride as a dragon, beside I know Indra hates chaos more than anything else, so I don't mind accepting his challenge, I do not mind fighting against him.
Azazel: *Sigh* You never change do you
Issei sheepishly smiled, Azazel then gave a wry smile
Azazel: Speaking of which you already have 6 harem girls, I mean your dream of being a harem king is going quite smoothly, so did you take their virginity
Issei then responds with embarrassment
Issei: Yes..........
Azazel then gets excited
Azazel: Who is it?!?!?!?
Issei: It is Raynare!!
Issei says it with a blush, Azazel then cheers for him
Azazel: That's my boy, you did not even lose your virginity back then and now look at you, you've become a man
Issei: S-stop it sensei
Issei is clearly embarrassed, Azazel then says
Azazel: Alright enough jokes, How do you plan on dealing with Indra then?
Issei: Honestly I do not know, I am kind of afraid of who he is, I mean someone like him the Heavenly king himself scares me, it is like I am fighting someone similar to Sirzechs in terms of power, if not stronger than Sirzechs, I do not want to kill him, he was able to destroy one of Trihexa's cores back then so he is as strong as my Diabolos Dragon Form, with the infinity limiter, but I cannot show fear, I do not know his true strength, I might have to work hard if I have to beat him, but I want to prove myself that I am not his enemy, but his ally and if possible, a friend
Azazel then smiles at Issei's declaration
Azazel: Alright kiddo, the fight will be in two days, you best be prepared cause he will not be holding back against you
Issei: Alright sensei
They then go back and they enjoy the party, Issei knew that he needed to get ready for his fight against Indra...
*Scene Break*
Two days later
Hyoudou Residence, 9:00 AM
Issei could be seen waiting at his house for the battle, he knew that Indra would come any time in order to fight against Issei, the others were also anxious as they knew that Indra is one of the members from the top 10 strongest members in the world. Issei assured them that he will be fine but the girls were relentless majority of them cared for Issei. Chara and Flowey cared for their older brother figure, they knew that Issei was stronger than the both of them, they did not know what kind of person this Indra or Sakra guy is but for him to issue a challenge all of a sudden a thunder crackle is heard, which alerts everyone to it, all of a sudden a man shows up, He can be described as a man with a buzz-cut hairstyle with greenish brown hair color and lavender eyes. He wears circular sunglasses, an aloha shirt, and has a jewel around his neck when in his leisure.
???: So Issei Hyoudou are you ready for my challenge?
Issei recognized this man as Lord Indra, the heavenly emperor, he was here as a challenge against Issei Hyoudou, he wanted to test this man for a fight, test his true intentions
Issei: Lord Indra, so you have come here
Indra then shook his head and responded
Indra: Just call me Indra boy, now we have a fight don't we, so let's go
Issei: Alright Indra, he seems friendly, I was afraid for nothing it looks like
Issei assured the girls that he will be back soon, he knew that he must fight against Indra, they both went into a dimension where there would be no disturbance or the interventions of the fight
Indra and Issei headed to the dimension where Indra wore a golden armor, like he was getting ready for battle, he was getting excited because his sources told him that Issei never went all out against any of the opponents he found.
Indra: So what do you think of the dimension Issei?
Issei: Nice but I have seen better...
Indra: Hmm, okay
Issei: So Indra, why are you so eager in eliminating me, like am I really that dangerous to be left alive
Indra: Honestly, initially I wanted to eliminate you because you and the white dragon were using the term Heavenly meant for us, but think about it Issei, you have access to the HATE drive, which is basically juggernaut drive without the added drawbacks, if left unchecked you could be a massive threat to not only the three factions, but also to the other races as well
Issei: I see.......so this fight is a sort of test to prove my true intentions
Indra: Indeed, only with combat shall we prove what our intentions are
Issei: Very well, Indra
The boosted gear appears on Issei's hands
Issei: Let us begin
Issei then charged at Indra who blocked Issei's fist with one hand, he then used his own fist to counter Issei back, with twice the effort, which Issei dodged thanks to his enhanced senses and training. Indra had a smirk on him knowing that this boy might be the toughest opponents he faced so far, even tougher than Vitra or Virochana. Considering both fell relatively easily to the thunder god's attack. He knew that he had his hands full when he decided to fight Issei. So he decided to keep some distance from Issei and used one of his Thunder Attacks
(A/N: I don't own this gif or certain magical Index)
Indra: Let's see how you survive this Issei Hyoudou
Indra then fired three lightning bolts towards Issei, this was a direct hit to the boy, Indra knew that this attack was strong enough to wipe out High class beings, but Indra was not surprised that Issei took the lightning bolt head on without a damage, he was able to fight Rizevim single handedly.
Issei then charged his extinction ray at Indra which Indra was able to take it easily with relative ease. After which the both summoned their weapons, Durandal for Issei Hyoudou and Vajra for Indra.
Indra then zapped the whole field with his vajra, Issei noticed that this was way stronger than Akeno's or Baraquiel's holy lightning, he had to defend himself. Issei knew that this was the attack which was as strong as Issei's infinite blaster, Indra fired a direct shot at Issei
(A/N: I don't own this gif or certain magical Index)
Indra then smirked knowing that this attack can kill gods, so if Issei survived this then he would be as strong as a god
Indra: Not bad Issei, but it looks like it is time for you to-
Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide
Welsh Dragon Balance Breaker
Indra heard Issei activating his balance breaker, Indra was surprised that he possesses the vanishing dragon's power as well and he used the power to activate his balance breaker, he managed to survive Indra's initial onslaught with relative ease, Indra cracked a smile, this attack was enough to knock a Satan class being a distance or if a direct hit it can even be fatal to them as well. But Issei managed to survive the wound
Issei: Thanks for the juice, Indra
Indra instead of getting angry, only had a smirk on his face, he knew that he was holding back so that he wanted to see what is Issei capable of, he might just be the strongest red dragon emperor he faced so far. But Issei was struggling, the power of Indra's Vajra is no joke, he needed some time to concentrate and incorporate his power into him. Indra then asked
Indra: Issei, how did you get the power of the vanishing dragon with you?
Issei: I incorporated it into myself, it was a painful process sapping away some of my life force as a result, but in the end I was able to incorporate it into myself, I would like to call this my dividing gear.
Issei then revealed a white version of the boosted gear, much to Indra's surprise, Indra only had a grin on his face, he realized that this red dragon emperor might be interesting, considering he has the vanishing dragon's power as well inside of him
Indra: So shall we continue, Issei?
Issei: Indeed, Indra let us begin
Indra and Issei began their clash they were almost parried in terms of hand to hand combat for a while until Indra began pushing into him, given his strength can overpower dragon gods as well, Issei was unable to keep up with him over time and had to use a dragon shot to keep his distance, but Indra just moved his head to the side and dodged it
(A/N: I do not own this gif or dragon ball z)
Indra then gave Issei a severe gut punch to the stomach breaking through his armor with relative ease. Issei coughed up saliva from his armor
(A/N: I do not own this gif or dragon ball super)
Indra then gave a punch that sent Issei flying a distance he crashed into a nearby rock in the dimension, while recovering from the punch Indra gave him, Indra continued beating into Issei eventually tearing into his armor, Issei eventually kept his distance and his dragon told him
Draigg: Issei you got to take it to the next stage if you have to keep up with him
Issei: Got it Draigg!!!
Issei: I, who is about to awaken
Am the Red Dragon Emperor who holds the truth of the king up high
Holding the infinite hopes and unbreakable dreams and walking the path of righteousness
I will become an Emperor of Crimson Dragon
And I will lead you to the Path of Heaven, glowing in deep crimson light!
Cardinal Crimson Full Drive!!!
The boosted gear announced Cardinal Crimson Full Drive, Indra noticed this armor to be that similar to that of the juggernaut drive, Indra knew that the Juggernaut drive was strong enough to even be feared by him because of the massive amount of destruction it holds, but was surprised that Issei managed to activate a form that was similar, if not much stronger than the regular juggernaut drive.
Indra: So you have surpassed the regular juggernaut drive Issei, I am impressed clearly I am, now show me what this new form of yours has got in store for me
Issei: Very well Indra, I won't disappoint you
The boosted gear then announced
Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!! Boost!!! Boost!!!!
Longinus Smasher !!!!!
Indra braced for impact, he wanted to see how strong this Longinus smasher is, he knew that this was the strongest move of the Boosted Gear. He used his Vajra to conjure lightning in an attempt to defend himself, but this was not enough, he got overwhelmed, and all of a sudden there was a dust cloud
Issei wondered what happened, this attack was strong enough to kill Grendel, he did feel a little dizzy after using the move, but after the dust cleared, it revealed Indra with his armor destroyed, but was unaffected by much, he did feel a bit damaged, the armor did protect his important parts from getting damaged, Issei knew that Indra would still be alright even if he did not have the armor, albeit he would be damaged more despite losing the armor. Indra then asked with a smile.
Indra: Your attack holds conviction, holds hope, tell me Issei what is that you fight for, what is your end goal in helping the alliance, I initially only had a little belief you were a good person, but now I know that you are a good person, so tell me Issei what is your end goal.
Issei: My goal has always been the same, I always desire peace, to protect the people I cherish and are important to my life. If there are those that will hurt my important people then I will definitely defeat them even if they may be a God.
Issei said the statement with conviction, Indra looked at Issei for a while, he then smiled, he knew that Issei was not a bad person, he knew that he never desired chaos, Indra could discern the real motives of a person, he can read minds and when he read minds, he saw that Issei words hold no deception, but now he knows that his words hold no deception.
Indra: Good job, Issei Hyoudou, you have passed the test, I know you could have killed me if you wanted to but you never intended to do so, I am kind of jealous that you have become as strong as some stronger beings out there, usually from what I heard souls of determination are chaotic in nature, but you are different. Azazel is right about who you are, you really are someone special, I am proud of you Issei
Issei: Thank you Lord Indra
Indra: Alright let's go back, the others might get worried for you.
Indra and Issei head back to the Hyoudou Residence, Issei is then jumped on by his entire team who hug him for surviving and passing the test, he then explains what had happened much to their relief, after which Indra borrows Issei for a while but not before assuring his team that he won't fight or hurt Issei
Indra then gives Issei a vial full of shining golden liquid, Issei notices the glow of the liquid on the vial
Issei: Lord Indra, what is this?
Indra: That's the liquid Amrita, use this to become stronger, it will be useful against your fight against stronger enemies.
Draigg: Partner, that is the miracle drug Amrita, this can give you immortality, akin to that of a true god, this can also revive those that have been defeated, this drug is known to perform miracles you have never seen before
Issei: Wow, Lord Indra I do not know what to say, it is-
Indra cuts him off
Indra: Consider this the reward for passing the test Issei, but before I go, I want to tell you something the Khaos Brigade is on the move, they are reviving someone who is as strong as Ophis, you and your friends need to be careful
Issei then looked in worry, Issei then asked
Issei: Who?
Indra: Her name is Gaia, the mother goddess, the mother of Kronos and the grandmother of Zeus, Poseidon, Hades and the rest of the Olympians. You need to be careful, you have to stop her before it is too late. I do not know how much time they have, but you need to be careful
Issei: A-alright
Indra: Very well then I will take my leave, I know you and your friends will be able to stop her just like you have been doing so far
Indra then leaves Issei, Issei knew that he needed to be stronger in case Gaia attacks them, but for now he decided to spend time with his family, they were worried sick after all for the battle against one of the strongest gods of all time.
*Scene Break*
(A/N: Bang that's it for the chapter, the next one will be a clash that will decide the fate of life itself)
(A/N(2): Before you judge me for Indra's personality, because you only watched the anime only, know this Indra is one of the most friendliest gods out there, he dislikes Chaos as well as have intolerance towards those with evil deeds)
Please let me know in the comments on how to improve and I will catch y'all later
PEACE!!!!!!
