Start By Becoming A Mangaka
chapter-848

"There are a lot of Grim Reapers on the outside," Kiba said after checking the situation outside.

They nodded after hearing his response.

"Damn, that Hades!" Azazel spat when he found out that Hades had targeted Ophis.

After the fight with Cao Cao, Everyone had many injured people, Irina, Sensei, Vali, Kuroka, Le Fay, and Ophis were on the upper floor of the hotel located in the artificial space.

The hotel was sixty stories high. They moved to the middle of the hotel, which is the thirtieth floor, and covered the whole floor with many of Le Fay's sturdy barriers in order to use it as our base.

Issei, Azazel, and Xenovia were alright since they had received a healing treatment from Asia.

Vali was laying on the bed since his body was under the cursed of Samael. Even though the wounds on his body had been healed, but he was still in pain because of this curse.

Issei who saw Vali's condiotion knew that once a curse hit his body, 'Then, I will die...' He suddenly felt a shudder and wasn't sure why but he felt scared.

'Partner....' Ddraig said silently inside his head.

'I am calm, Ddraig. Don't worry,' Issei answered. He knew that he couldn't get scared since he needed to save everyone.

"Nee-san, are you alright?" Koneko asked Kuroka worriedly.

"I am alright. My injuries aren't that big, nyaa," Kuroka tried to call him, but it was futile. She didn't receive that much damage since she used her magical item to protect herself. She thought for a while and suddenly remembered something, "NYAAAA!!!!"

"W - What?!"

Everyone was startled by Kuraka's outbursts.

"What's wrong?" Akeno asked. She was quite tired after the thing that had happened now.

"That's right! Yuuki has given me this thing!" Kuroka said and took out a hilt ornament.

"What's that?" Ravel asked. She was feeling useless ealier but there was nothing she could do.

"Isn't this the thing that Yuuki used to heal everyone during the Sairorg's match?" Akeno was surprised to see that thing on Kuroka.

"Yes, nyaa! I have asked him to give this to me, nyaa," Kuroka smiled happily when she had this thing.

"...."

"Why are you not taking this thing earlier?" Azazel twitched his lips and asked.

"I forgot, nyaa," Kuroka said while smiling.

"......"

They were speechless at this girl and weren't sure what to say now.

Kuroka didn't hesitate and used this magic item on herself. Suddenly there was a pink light that started to envelop everyone.

They could feel that they were full of energy and the wounds on their bodies were healed instantly.

"......"

"Vali. How?" Kuroka asked.

Vali shook his head, "No. The curse is still in my body." He sighed but he felt slightly better with that magic item.

"Well, for the curse you need to wait for him, nyaa," Kuroka said and asked, "I wonder what happens to both Yuuki and Rias..." She sighed and wanted to meet him as soon as possible.

"Don't worry. That guy won't die unless he has i.m.p.r.e.g.n.a.t.ed us," Akeno said.

"That's true, nyaa," Kuroka nodded.

"....." They weren't sure but the atmosphere became slightly awkward but it also eased their tense after their fight with Cao Cao.

"Akeno-san, why do you have such great confidence in him?" Issei asked. He didn't understand how both Akeno and Kuroka could still laugh in this situation. He had shared his fight and it was his first time to feel such a helpless feeling. He didn't know what had happened to both Yuuki and Rias but he knew that they were in trouble too similar to their situation.

Akeno smiled and said, "Just say that it is a woman's intuition." She believed in him would come back soon.

"Remember in the manga? Usually, the hero shows up at the last minute, nyaa. I am sure that it is similar to that, nyaa," Kuroka said with a smile.

Vali snorted, "If he doesn't come then it's alright since I will beat them all." He tried to get up since he felt better with the help of his magic item.

"Vali-sama. You're under a curse. You shouldn't get up," Le Fay said worriedly.

"Vali. Use this, nyaa," Kuroka said and gave the hilt ornament to Vali.

Vali received it and used it directly on his body to ease the pain from the curse, "Thank you." He looked at Issei and asked, "So what are you going to do?"

"What?" Issei didn't understand what Vali meant.

"Are you going to hide here until the help is coming? Or are you going out with me to beat all of them?" Vali asked.

Issei clenched his hands while remembering the thing that they had done to his comrades. He stood up and said, "Of course, I will beat them for harming my comrades!!!!" He knew that the enemy was powerful but he didn't want to give up.

"Ise-san...."

Azazel laughed, "As expected of Heavenly Dragons!"

Vali nodded and said, "Then, we need to make a plan."

"Umm, Vali-san..." Asia suddenly said.

"Hmm?" Vali looked at Asia with a curious expression.

"Can I see that thing after you have healed?" Asia asked while pointing at the hilt ornament that was used to ease the pain on Vali's body.

"You can ask him to give it to you later," Vali said without hesitation.

"Then what should we do now?" Issei asked.

"We need to escape from this artificial space," Azazel said and asked, "Le Fay, Kuroka, can you teleport all of us to the underworld?"

Le Fay nodded, "It's possible but there is something that is making it impossible for Ophis-sama, Vali-sama, and Hyoudou-san to be teleported too."

"Hmm, then they must have planted something that is forbidding anyone with a dragon attribute to get out of this place," Azazel concluded.

"However, there is a way to escape from this place," Akeno said.

"How?" Xenovia asked.

"It's easy, nyaa," Kuroka said.

"Just destroy this artificial space!" Kuroka, Akeno, Vali, and Koneko answered at the same time.

"......"

They were speechless but it was very easy to be understood.

Issei nodded and felt a bit excited, "Then, let's do it. Let's destroy this goddamn artificial space!"

"But before that, we need to beat down that group of grim reapers," Kiba said.

They looked at each other and nodded. They wouldn't be satisfied until they had gotten their revenge.
