Third Person POV

Issei was glad.

He was finally out of the Demon Castle dungeon since he completed the first half of the quest and collected all 10,000 Demon souls.

He had a feeling that some time had passed since he departed for the dungeon, the sky of Kuoh had turned into a dark abyss that was being illuminated by the stars that dotted the vast open black.

It was already the end of the day, several hours must have passed. Not like Issei would have known, he was too focused on completing the quest the system gave him to notice.

Plus, he wouldn't have even been able to notice the hours that went by anyway. The system doesn't really tell time, and the sky inside the dungeon was always dark...although he wouldn't even notice since there was so much fire.

Issei sighed to himself.

Issei: "Finally, I'm out of there..."

He scratched the back of his head, he should head back home but before he did...something was on his mind and it was the reward he got.

[Item: Holy Water of Life]

Item Class: S

Type: Consumable

An item that could cure any disease, Issei was no psychic but he got the feeling that he was gonna have to go and craft that item somewhere in the future.

But why would he need to?

Issei didn't know anyone who had a disease, so why would he need to craft an item like that? If anything, he would probably just complete the second part of the quest and get the Demon Monarch's Ring.

Speaking of which, the final ingredient that he needed IF he were to craft the Holy Water of Life was...Purified Blood of Demon King.

Issei: "Hmm..."

Obtaining the Blood won't be easy, he has only reached the 75th floor and that was the limit of how far he could go.

Issei: 'No doubt, the final boss of the Demon castle is a Demon King...'

Issei sighed and shook his head, he's not gonna worry about it for now. For now, he was just gonna go back home and rest up because he deserves to take a break after a long day.

With that, Issei turned and started to walk off. He was sure that his mother was worried sick about him, considering that he has been gone for a few hours.

As he drew closer to his home, he soon stopped as he felt like something was wrong. The brown-haired boy narrowed his eyes as he gazed upon his home, something didn't feel right to Issei.

Issei: 'Someone's in my home...'

Issei slowly approached the front door, preparing himself for whoever or whatever was on the other side. It could be someone like Sona or Rias, but there is a chance that it's a Fallen Angel who is allied with Yuuma.

He slowly opened the front door and walked inside, being as quiet as possible.

Just then, he heard something. It was the sound of his mother talking and giggling with someone, Issei didn't know who it was...but he was gonna find out here and noe. He followed the source of the noise, which was coming from the living room.

Walking toward the source, Issei soon saw his mother sitting on one of the couches, sitting across from three people.
