Chapter 374: This is our time!
Romania.
It was one of the biggest countries in Eastern Europe.
While Issei didn't know why he was brought to this place, there was no doubt that this was the best place to hide.Ñøv€lRapture marked the initial hosting of this chapter on Ñôv€lß¡n.
Why?
This was the territory of the Vampire, a powerful supernatural being that didn't join the alliance. Due to their nature and also origin, they were proud beings. Even if they were troubled, they wouldn't ask for help, thinking that they could handle everything.
However, in front of the power of Gasper from the future and the remnant of the Hero Faction and also Vali's group, they quickly took down and controlled the entire territory of the vampire in Romania.
As for why Gasper chose this place, it was partly due to his selfishness. Yet, there was no doubt that this place was the most perfect place to hide.
Still, to explain from the beginning, Gasper was born in Romania as a Dhampir, with a noble vampire as his father and a human female as his mother. However, due to a certain mutation in his body, no one liked him, and he was isolated or even hated due to this mutation. He didn't know the reason previously and thought that he was just an unwanted child, but then everything changed when Rias came to him and made him her servant.
Nevertheless, many things happened, and here he was, becoming a powerful devil that reached a Super Devil level.
However, even if Gasper had become so powerful, he was still helpless against Riser. Even in the future, Issei was unable to do anything, so here he was, returning to the past, trying to get rid of Riser, nipping off the bud before it bloomed into a carnivore flower.
Issei was that hope.
Still, as Gasper waited for Issei, he also went to Romania to clear up all the obstacles for his dearest friend, Valerie Tepes.
According to the timeline in the original story, at this moment, the leader of the vampire of the Carmilla Faction went to visit the devil, asking for Gasper.
However, such a thing didn't happen on this timeline since Gasper from the future came and cleared up everything for Valerie Tepest.
Like him, Valerie Tepes was also a Dhamphir, an existence that was born between a vampire and a human, and like him, she also had something special inside her body.
Longinus.
"What?"
Issei was confused, but Georg, who followed them, could only smile since he knew that under the leadership of Issei, Gasper from the future, and also Valerie, everything would be okay.
Still, the surprise that Gasper wanted to show Issei hadn't ended, and he brought Issei to a luxurious mansion within the territory of the vampire.
While Issei was confused, he still followed Gasper until his eyes widened. "Si-Si-Si..."
"Yo, Issei-kun." Sirzech greeted Issei with a gentle smile.
"Sirzech-sama!" Issei was crying when he saw Sirzech.
However, Sirzech wasn't the only one since Ajuka, Azazel, Odin, and many others. Yes, with the power of Sephiroth Graal, Valerie returned everyone from the land of death. Moreover, they weren't the only ones, as Valerie also reincarnated many others from evil dragons and those powerful beings that were dying.
At this point, it wouldn't be wrong to say that their force wasn't even lost to the alliance!
"Issei-kun."
"It's been a while.
"Yo, Red Emperor Dragon!"
Everyone was so happy to meet each other, and when they saw the power emitted from Issei, all of them saw hope, so the moment Issei calmed down, they quickly told him what was happening. Still, to not scare Issei, they tried to lower Riser and told Issei what kind of evil Riser had done to the world.
This time, the initiative was in their hands, and they would definitely take down Riser!
With that thought, they made Issei full of spirit so he would be ready to fight Riser.
"Yes, I will do my best!"
Issei shouted with all of his might, showing his determination to defeat Riser, yet what they didn't know was that Riser was already on his way to destroy all of them.
