Issei widened his eyes when Sirzechs suddenly handed him something. It was a card that featured the symbols of the Phenex Clan.
"A credit card?"
"That's right. The credit card is connected to the money that the Phenex Clan wields, and it works just like the ones the humans use in your world."
Turning the card around silently, Issei handed it to Ophis, who took it and looked at it with a concentrated expression.
Smiling at the look on Ophis's face, Issei brought his attention to Lord Phenex and Sirzechs.
"So is there anything else?"
Outside of the Phenex Mansion
Issei crossed his arms as he watched the fifteen members of Riser's peerage staring right at him. Next to him was Ophis, who had her cheeks puffed out like an irritated chipmunk.
'I, do not like the way they are staring at you.' Ophis stated telepathically to Issei.
'It's all right, Ophis. You don't need to worry.'
As he looked at Riser's peerage, he could already point out Xuelan, Mira, and…Yubelluna. Issei narrowed his eyes a little at Yubelluna. Riser's Queen widened her eyes and quickly looked away. Looking at the other members, Issei noticed a girl with blonde hair and dark blue eyes looking at him with an unreadable expression.
Issei closed his eyes as he concentrated.
'Looks like she could be Riser's sister.'
"Apparently from what Riser's father and Sirzechs said, all of Riser's possessions are bestowed upon me. I just want to say this…"
The young man opened his eyes and pointed at Riser's peerage.
"You girls stay here at the Phenex mansion. In order to live comfortably, I'll give you enough bloodstones to support yourselves."
Holding Ophis' hand, a wave of solar flares began to form around Issei and the Ouroboros Dragon. His sight focusing on Xuelan, Issei nodded to her.
"You remember what I said. If it's really necessary, only three of you can visit my house. Only three. That's it. I can't have all fifteen of you in my house."
And with that, Issei disappeared with Ophis, leaving Riser's peerage to stay at the Phenex mansion.
The Dimensional Gap
"So have you calmed down now, Ophis?"
"Yes, I have. Brother."
"What? No calling me Baka-Red anymore? I'm touched. And you called me brother."
"You, are still annoying."
"What the hell did you just-"
"Ophis, Red, please calm down."
Great Red sighed as he peered down at his brother-in-law. Ophis removed her stare from Great Red and sent her mate an emotionless expression.
Issei had convinced Ophis to travel to the Dimensional Gap so she and Great Red could 'reconcile'.
It seemed to be working so far.
Ophis narrowed her eyes as she looked up at Great Red.
"I, apologize for ruining your fun with my mate."
Great Red grinned and nodded.
"Thanks for the apology, sis."
"You, shall apologize as well."
"What?! Why?!"
Ophis narrowed her eyes and flew up to Great Red's horn.
"You, stole my Issei when I was not looking. You, took him without my permission. Issei, is mine."
"Yeah but he's my brother-in-law."
"He, is my mate." Ophis countered.
"All right, fine! I'm sorry, all right?!"
"Apology, is accepted."
Issei chuckled a bit as he watched the scene.
'Well at least they're getting along.'
Issei's Inner World/Subconscious
{Ah, partner. Long time no see. Have you come here to train?}
Issei kept quiet as he looked at Ddraig. When the Red Dragon Emperor had started that conversation with him earlier, it honestly confused Issei.
"Not today. I just want to talk."
{Humph. Then speak.}
"Earlier today, you said my Hell-Fire transformation made me a Phoenix. What exactly did you mean by that?"
Raising an eyebrow, Ddraig chuckled and placed the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi on his back, crossing his arms in amusement.
{You have no idea how powerful your Hell-Fire transformation is, do you partner?}
"…No, I don't."
{Kukukuku.}
Outside of Issei's Subconscious
Issei was laying on his couch, while meditating and talking to Ddraig within his subconscious. Next to him was Ophis, who was sitting next to him. As she watched Issei, her dark gray eyes narrowed in concentration.
"I, sense the Welsh Dragon within my mate."
The Ouroboros Dragon then set her sights to the middle of the room as she noticed a bright silver circle glowing on the ground. A silhouette suddenly emerged from the circle and cleared, revealing a beautiful and voluptuous woman with curly blonde hair. The woman had her eyes closed with a peaceful look on her face.
Narrowing her eyes darkly, Ophis placed her hand on Issei's forehead.
Opening her bright eyes, Gabriel, the Most Beautiful Woman in Heaven, widened her eyes in surprise when she noticed one of the strongest beings in existence clinging to Issei.
"O-Ophis? The Infinite Dragon God?"
Holding Issei tighter within her grasp, Ophis set her narrowed eyes directly to Gabriel.
"Seraph Angel Gabriel. What do you want with Issei?"
Gabriel remained speechless as she set her sight on the Infinite Dragon God's grasp on Issei.
'When did Ophis find Issei? And what is it doing with him?'
Ophis maintained her glare at Gabriel, and held onto Issei tighter with her grip. Gabriel widened her eyes further as she noticed Ophis' appearance.
'Its' appearance changed again. The last time I heard, Ophis took the form of an elderly man. Then it took the form of a young girl. And now…it's in the form of an adult woman. And its body shape seems similar to mine.'
Suddenly, Ophis' body began to glow with a blackish aura, before a lone snake began to manifest. Gabriel gasped as the snake morphed into the form Ophis took when she first encountered Issei.
'A-another Ophis?! It took the form of its young female state.'
Ophis looked at her double and tilted her head. Mimicking her original progenitor, the double tilted her head as well. She then sat on the ground and gazed at her original progenitor.
While appearing just like Ophis, the double's facial expression appeared to be more devoid of emotion.
