Chapter 748 Connecting the Two Worlds part 3
"We apologize for such a display.", Dylan straightened his suit and his regal demeanor returned.
"There's nothing for you to apologize for, Dylan-san. It should be us who should be saying sorry for making your daughter go through all of that." Kisuke removed his hat and sat down while offering a seat to the Sitri family.
Since it'd only make the conversation unnecessarily long, Dylan took the seat and changed the topic, "In any case, this is such sophisticated technology. If possible, I'd like you to sell it to me."
The moment he heard about Kisuke's communication device, he wanted to get this technology in his hands as soon as possible because there are so many things it could be used for, especially within his territory, a forefront runner in medical research.
Not every ailment needed or could be solved by Magic and some needed to go through traditional surgery. If the Sitri Household could get this technology, they could expand their influence through remote surgery where teleportation is restricted or inconvenient.
"I have no further use for this so I could just give it to you, but we'll have to talk about that when I return."
"Hmm... That's fair." Dylan nodded at him before looking towards the new faces, "I'm sorry for my late introduction, but I'm Dylan Sitri, the current head of the Sitri Household and this is my wife, Cordelia. I'm delighted to make your acquaintance."
Hestia, Artemis, and Line also introduced themselves again and the Sitri couple was surprised like Sakura, Cleria, and Masaomi. However, this isn't their main point today and they knew they didn't have much time.
With all the introductions out of the way, Cleria, Sakura, and sometimes, Dylan and Masaomi started talking about the big events on their side.
After Kisuke, Irina, Akeno, and Serafall had left, an exclusive meeting happened between the leaders of the Three Great Factions with Diehauser in the middle of it after he revealed that he has been working as a spy for Rizevim and his organization, Qlippoth.
If this were heard by the Elders, Diehauser would instantly be imprisoned, but since he told it to the leaders who don't have the same strict and old-fashioned views, they choose to listen first and decide later.
When Sirzechs, Falbium, and Ajuka heard that it all started with the prohibited 'King' piece and Zekram's attempt to silence Cleria about it, they could only sigh and put their hands on their faces.
Now that he discovered that his revenge was already pointless and would only put Cleria in even more danger, he decided to come out and confess what he knew and Rizevim's plans. But even then, he's not really fully trusted and only knew a few points and a few of those were the research on the Trihexa's seal using Rossweise's thesis, the planned attack on Heaven, and the attempt to replicate Phoenix's Tears which was already a success to some degree.
Of course, the leaders were alarmed by all of this and immediately ordered appropriate measures.
Soon, the foreseen attack on Heaven indeed happened and they were ready for it. However, thanks to some unforeseen specific details, in addition to Lilith and the revived Evil Dragons, Rizevim and his cohort were able to retreat with Sekiryuutei just giving him a single effective blow.
"Hoho? So Issei-kun is now powerful enough to fight a Super Devil?" Kisuke asked with interest.
Dylan nodded, "At some point, yes. However, Rizevim was only considered a Super Devil because of his Sacred Gear Canceller, which is a unique ability that could nullify nearly all Sacred Gear abilities. Issei Hyodou was only able to inflict damage to him using a unique ability of his own. But compared to other Super Devils like Sirzechs and Ajuka, Rizevim is a lot weaker."
At this point, Sakura interjected, "Nevertheless, Issei-kun right now should be as powerful as a God and could even go to the top levels even for a short amount of time if he were to push himself."
Cordelia let out a short sigh and added, "It's technically a war out there so his extreme adaptability to the situation became his strongest point. Furthermore, Lucifer's true heir won't lose to him as the Hakuryuukou."
'Looks like both of them went beyond my expectations~ I would really like to meet them now.', thought Kisuke. Though he could understand why that came to be and that's because they have been fighting literal Gods or those on the same level. What's more surprising was that they were still alive and Kisuke doesn't know if this is all about their ability, fate, or luck, 'Either way, their environment pressured them while we are here peacefully polishing our basics. We really have to step up soon.'
The girls saw Kisuke grin and shuddered. They knew what he's thinking but they weren't really against it after hearing their story. They know they are being left behind and the other side is only going to get more dangerous. While strength and power aren't their ultimate goal, they wanted enough to protect those important to them and not be relegated to the sideline. Without Kisuke's knowledge, everyone's resolve was strengthened.
Setting those thoughts aside, for now, Kisuke asked, "What are these unforeseen details that you've mentioned?"
"They got help from some group. To be exact, Hades and Apollo's group.", answered Sakura.
"Let me guess.", Kisuke interrupted her, "You're able to track it back to them but since there is no evidence you can't do anything meaningful to them?"
Cleria nodded, "That's correct. And we're only able to trace their influence thanks to Athena and Nyx who helped us from the shadows."
Kisuke shrugged his shoulders, "Well, that's understandable. If the Alliance made a move against them with just suspicions, they'll look really bad and they'll only make enemies. Gosh, I hate politics. Good thing I'm a terrorist. I'm really grateful to them right now."
Cleria, Masaomi, Dylan, Cordelia, and Sakura's mouths twitched at the same time. This is the first time they've seen someone being so happy to be branded as a terrorist and doubted if they'll ever meet a second one.
"Hey, I want to be one too! Make sure to bring me whenever you're gonna shit on their heads."
And their expectations were instantly broken by Yoruichi.
Clearing his throat, Dylan continued their story.
Since Diehauser's information was accurate enough, instead of protecting the Agreas Island where the Trihexa was sealed and making Rizevim extremely wary of them, the leaders decided that it would be better if they could lure Rizevim and his forces there to clean them in one fell swoop.
And this was a good idea since they were able to seal most of the Evil Dragons, separate Lilith from Qlippoth, and defeat Rizevim. However, they underestimated Rizevim's determination to release the Trihexa since he sacrificed his own soul as the trigger to break the seal.
After hearing that, Kisuke could only mutter, "That's one crazy asshole if I've ever seen one."
