"what do you mean kingdoms" i asked

"well have you read any of those isekai stories" miki asked i nodded

"take the idea and reverse it" miki told me i gaped

"so we are from some sort of fantasy world" i asked

"well sort of you will have to see for yourself when we go for we are returning home apparently we'd be better off there anyway and if this happened that means the gods have seen fit to gift you this is very special indeed and it is something we must prepare for" miki said

"when are we leaving" i asked

"when you are ready of course" miki said smiling reassuringly it was in that moment goro returned

"when he is ready the shogun wishes to meet him he said that he had big plans involving our son" goro said

"hmm that sounds interesting our lord must see mika's potential" miki said

"may i speak with him" sirzechs asked i looked to him

"issei we have decided on rias's punishment however because you were a big catalyst in rias gaining several of her pieces we find it only fair you get some for yourself so you are aloud to choose a rook, a knight, and a bishop from rias" sirzechs said

"i only want a rook and a night, those being koneko and xenovia, the bishops while i like asia she would be a liability in battle" i said he nodded in understanding

"i'll let her know and get them ready" sirzechs said

"bring riser too he wants to give me a few pieces" i said he nodded

"we will meet in the orc club room in an hour" sirzechs said i nodded

"i guess we should explain a few things then" miki said i nodded

"the blade i was holding is called a catalyst key it is very special and very important the catalyst keys a like sacred gears but different they are the lifeblood of every noble clan you would have unlocked yours however we brought you here so when we return you will need to unlock it" goro said

the cards are known as inquisitor sets and they are like the devils peerage system unlike the peerage system there is no rank when one swears loyalty it is binding and for life there are supposed to be only five but the gods blessed you the cards grant those with them enhanced properties similarly to peerage pieces however each also unlock their own catalyst key" miki said

"each catalyst key has three abilities that are unique to that key for my key has blood rein: which allows me to call upon ten undead servants to fight along side me, blood retribution which allows me to use the blood around me solidify it and strike my opponent with it, and blood mastery: which allows me to master any technique of another so long as my blade has drunk their blood"

"each key also has it's own name your father's key is called, blood feud" miki said

"can you only have one of these catalyst keys" i asked

"no actually the record for most keys is three at this present time" goro said

"i see" i said

"our world is also similar to this one in that there are more then one race though they aren't in hiding like with this one" goro said

"dragons are also significantly different in our world they are still intelligent but they have their differences" miki said

"there are other things as well but we shall teach you as the time comes" goro said

"we are now ready for you issei" sirzechs said returning to collect the former red dragon emperor

"if something happens to him it will be war you understand" miki asked

"yes lady akamitsu" sirzechs said
