DxD: Innocent Sin

6: As You Must Know.

-Yesterday-

We now see Issei waking up in his bed.

Issei: *Yawn* "Man, what happened?"

Ddraig: You got your ass whooped. Hard.

Issei: "Ddraig? Oh...it's starting to come back to me. Man, that was rough."

Ddraig: Despite someone who recently activated his Sacred Gear, he was quite formidable.

Issei: "I can't believe he has one like you."

Ddraig: I admit, it is strange. Aside from Albion and a few others, I didn't think there would be other sentient Sacred Gears.

Issei: "Albion?"

Ddraig: Oh. I was going to tell you later. But dues to these circumstances....There's another like me known as, Albion. To spare you of any details for now, let's say he's my eternal rival and he's now currently the Sacred Gear of another.

Issei: "......What the fuck? Why are you just telling me this now?"

Ddraig: I was going to tell you later. But due to certain and recent circumstances, I figured it was a good time now.

Issei: "Like Y/N?"

Ddraig: Yes. It was obvious that his Sacred Gear is sentient. But its power is absurdly higher than I anticipated. Hell, he was almost on par with what you could potentially do later on. He could even be much stronger.

Issei: "Are you serious?!"

Ddraig: Indeed. If the kid was using his full strength, you would've been dead in one blow.

Issei's eyes widen.

Issei: "So I could've died again, huh? Man, I hope I don't turn into Subaru."

Ddraig: By the way. How exactly did the fight start? I just want to check something.

Issei: "Uh.....well President tried to convince Himura to come with us. Then he got pissed."

Ddraig: How did he get pissed?

Issei: "Uh.....I.....

-Flashback-

Kiba: "Look. I believe what she's trying to say is that none of us have done anything to you."

Y/N: "That's the point! You didn't do anything! None of you stepped in to help me! So get out!"

Rias: "Look, at least do it for Sayaka!"

Y/N: ⬇️

In a matter of a mere second, Issei, with his Boosted Gear out, was blocking a punch by you aimed towards Rias.
