Betrayed To Hell And Back

Chapter 20: Dawn of War Pt 2

Issei knew the time was coming, and it was coming soon.

As he flew towards Kyoto to prepare Yasaka for what was to come. He wondered how it would all play out. However, he had no doubt in his mind. That he would be victorious.

He would have the life he wanted, and not the one he was living under an illusion.

Before he knew it, he was already sitting in Yasaka's office.

"So why have you come here so soon after the last time?" She asked quickly.

She wasn't expecting him at all, however, by his expression. She knew it was serious and he was here for a reason.

Issei sighed as he began to explain it to her.

"The war will most likely be starting soon, soon my group will be ready to move. We have decided to make a base in the underworld, in the dragon's territory to be specific. We also have no doubt, that the moment we enter the territory, that Tannin will try to intercept us. If he is defeated, no doubt Mephisto Pheles, will know about it and notify Sirzechs. Then it will start." He explained.

Yasaka sighed after hearing him.

"Do you have an exact day when you will be leaving?" She asked suddenly.

Issei put his hand on his chin as he thought about her question, in truth, the battle with Great Red still left some soreness and tiredness and it hadn't faded yet. So it might a few days to a week.

However, he needed to give her an answer.

"I'd say 3-4 days. I'll send a messenger before we leave, so that you can make appropriate preparations." He said.

Yasaka nodded and hummed, she was about to speak up. when a large magic circle appeared in the room. Yasaka seemed to be a bit surprised to see it, however, Issei knew the symbol.

It was the Shinto gods.

Soon, Susanoo, Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi appeared.

Yasaka suddenly spoke to them as they appeared.

"I thought you guys weren't coming till later?" She asked.

Amaterasu instantly noticed Issei and smiled.

"It seems you have a guest Yasaka, and we decided to come a bit earlier this time." She said happily.

Yasaka rolled her eyes at Amaterasu's usual bubbly personality.

Issei looked over the two other gods in the room, Tsukuyomi eyed him a bit wearily. However, Issei could feel that he didn't think badly about him. When he looked at Susanoo, however, that was a different case.

Susanoo looked at him like a snob. Like he was someone more important.

"So this is the brat, that's taking it to the three factions?" He asked suddenly.

Issei narrowed his eyes as he heard the storm god.

Amaterasu instantly spoke up.

"Don't speak like that Susanoo! It wouldn't be wise to anger this boy." She said loudly.

Susanoo looked at Amaterasu and spoke up.

"I just want to know if he can handle himself, someone who is taking on the three factions should be able too. Honestly, he doesn't seem like much." He said snidely.

Issei's eyebrow's twitched.

Yasaka instantly stood up and slammed her fist on the desk.

"Susanoo! Even if your a god, you should respect others!" She shouted.
