(Hey guys Author here been long I know. The last two chapters were in quite a different format of writing. I wanted to try something new. However that format just will not work out for me. It's too text message like and I feel like it doesn't look like a story hence why I will switch back to how I write. I hope you all forgive me for this.)

In the dim light of the abandoned church, Issei and Akeno made their way cautiously, their footsteps echoing in the eerie silence. Akeno's voice broke the stillness, laced with concern, "Issei, do you have any idea where Asia might be?"

Issei's brows furrowed as he recounted the encounter with Raynare. "All I know is that Asia's being held captive here. Raynare mentioned something about extracting her Sacred Gear."

Akeno's eyes widened in alarm, her voice tinged with urgency, "Why didn't you tell me this sooner, Issei? If they succeed in extracting her Sacred Gear, Asia's life will be in grave danger!"

Issei blinked, his confusion evident, "Wait, why is that such a bad thing?"

Akeno's frustration was palpable as she explained, "Issei, the Sacred Gear is intertwined with the soul of its wielder. Extracting it is not just painful, it's fatal. No human can survive the process."

Issei's eyes widened in realization, a surge of panic coursing through him. "We need to save her, now!"

However, before they could react, a chilling voice pierced the air, "Not so fast." Three figures descended from the treetops, their presence ominous and foreboding. At the forefront was the blue-haired woman, Kalawarner, who Issei had seen with Raynare. Beside her stood a figure in a trenchcoat and fedora, introducing himself as Dohnaseek, and a Loli dressed in a maid outfit named Mittelt.

Kalawarner's voice dripped with malevolence, her words laced with a sinister intent, "Well, well, Issei. Lady Rias saved you from Raynare once, but now we'll finish the job."

Akeno stepped forward, her power crackling around her like a storm. Her voice was commanding, "Issei, get in there and save Asia. I'll handle these intruders."

Mittelt's annoyance was evident in her retort, "We're not mere cannon fodder, you know."

As the tension mounted, Akeno's eyes blazed with determination, and she spoke with an edge of intensity, "This is it, Issei. Go save Asia. I'll hold them off."

Issei's resolve solidified as he nodded to Akeno, "Alright, I'll bring Asia back."

The atmosphere in the main hall of the church was tense and charged with emotion as Issei burst through the doors, his heart pounding, and his eyes locked onto Asia's unconscious and naked form tied to the cross. His voice quivered with a mix of relief and anger, "Asia!" He rushed forward, ready to free her from her bonds and shelter her from this nightmare.

But before Issei could reach her, a sudden impact resonated through the room as a light spear embedded itself in the ground, halting his advance. His eyes widened as his gaze shifted upwards, and there she was – Raynare, the one responsible for Asia's suffering and his death. Issei's anguish erupted into a fiery storm of rage as he bellowed, "You will pay, Raynareeeee!!!" His entire being seemed to tremble with fury.

Raynare's voice was laced with taunting amusement, "Let's see how far the once-weak pervert has come." She seemed intrigued, as if she relished the prospect of witnessing Issei's transformation.

Issei's Sacred Gear, the Twice Critical, responded to his intense emotions, and a surge of power coursed through him. The gear roared, it's voice echoing within the chamber, "Boost Boost Boost Boost!!!" But this time, something was different. The Twice Critical glowed an intense red, pulsating as if it was about to burst from within.
