### Battle Summary

Issei arrived at south-side of the school together with his battle partner, the “Pawn” Nimura as two engaged the Evil Dragons there, with Issei blasting them away with Welsh Dragon Bishop and Nimura using her her artificial Sacred Gear to kick away numerous Evil Dragons. Gasper assisted by creating and sending his beasts of darkness from the school aid the combatants defending the school. Walburga assaulted the southern region, where Rias and Bennia were fighting as the two tried to stop her. Issei and Nimura received a communication from Koneko and Saji, who were under attack by the Evil Dragons Grendel and Ladon.

Moving to assist them, Grendel tried to destroy the school as Issei attempted to stop him only be be trapped by Ladon's barrier. Grendel then attacked Saji as Issei tried to escape the barrier by using his **Cardinal Crimson Promotion**to punch the barrier, destroying it. Grendel continued to attack Saji as Koneko and Nimura attempted to rescue him while Issei was once again trapped in a three-layered barrier created by Ladon. Issei used his *Crimson Blaster* to destroy the barrier and damage Ladon, but Ladon once again trapped him in another layer of barriers as Issei tried to destroy them with his punches in order to go and save Saji along with the school. Grendel continued to beat Saji, as he was rescued by the parents of the children who wished to attend the school though they were soon overwhelmed by Grendel.

Sairaorg Bael arrived along with Regulus, defeating many mass produced Evil Dragons along the way. Ladon received a communication ordering him to go to Agreas where Team DxD gained the advantage as he released the barrier around Issei and teleported away. Sairaorg wore Regulus to equip his Balance Breaker, **Regulus Rey Leather Rex**. Issei and Sairaorg teamed up as they overwhelmed Grendel but Sairaorg was injured by Walburga, who unleashed a powerful holy fire cross to nearly kill him, as Gasper used his monsters to try to fight against Walburga while Grendel stomped on Sairaorg, as Sairaorg stood up to continue to fight against Grendel. Grendel received a communication ordering him to fall back as he tried to escape by teleporting away. Sairaorg grabbed his tail, launching him into the air where Issei shot him with *Crimson Blaster* and Sairaorg punched him in the stomach, critically injuring him. Koneko used her Senjutsu technique to seal Grendel's soul in one of Issei's jewels, preventing him from being revived and healed by the Holy Grail.

Regroping at the school with everyone else from the Occult Research Club and Sitri peerage, the group fought to defend the school as they noticed that Agreas was teleported to a different location. Everyone noticed that the barrier that had surrounded the area had been destroyed, as it is revealed that the True Longinus destroyed it with the Holy Spear being teleported away after doing so.

Walburga then attempted to destroy the school with her fire cross as Sona attempted to protect the school, with Rossweisse shielding her with her magic which was slowly getting overwhelmed by the power of the Holy Cross. Saji stood in front of Sona to protect her from the flame cross, nearly being killed by it. Vritra then returned from the depths of the Sacred Gear as Saji attained his Balance Breaker; **Malebolge Vritra Promotion**. Saji then made the flame cross vanish with ease as he moved in to attack Walburga as the mass produced Evil Dragons attempted to stop him, but he captured them with his tentacles as the Evil Dragons had all of their aura sucked out and turned to dust. Saji began to fight against Walburga as Issei sensed Ddraig presence in the Sacred Gear and Asia was able to summon Fafnir. Fafnir then began a cooking show which captivated the Evil Dragons as they temporarily stopped attacking.

Euclid Lucifuge appeared as he kidnapped Rossweisse and ordered the Evil Dragons to continue attacking. Gondul appeared and tried to save Rossweisse, succeeding in sealing Euclid's teleportation magic, preventing him from escaping via teleportation as he took of with Rossweisse, with Issei and Rias chasing him.

They followed him to a wasteland where Euclid left Rossweisse tied up as he battled against Issei.  Issei fought against Euclid again as he used the wyverns to Divide on a wave of demonic power that Euclid shot out and enhanced with Boost. As Euclid attempted to hit Issei, his attack was blocked due to Issei increasing his power, with it being revealed that Issei has transformed the wyverns into Red wyverns, which he used to increase his power to guard against Euclid's attack and hit Euclid with Solid Impact. Issei can freely change the wyverns between White wyverns, which can use the White Dragon Emperor's power and Red wyverns, which can use the Red Dragon Emperor's power. Issei used the Red wyverns to increase the power of his Dragon Shots and the White wyverns to Reflect them to Euclid who tried to dodge them. Issei then used the Red wyverns to Boost his own power and use **Longinus Smasher**, which Euclid attempted to dodge but was incapable of due to being captured by Rossweisse using his own magical restrains against him. Euclid was defeated after being blasted by *Longinus Smasher*, destroying his replica Boosted Gear Scale Mail armor and leaving him critically injured.

## Conclusion

Euclid Lucifuge was taken into custody to be interrogated about his knowledge of Rizevim Lucifer and Qlippoth. He was later interrogated by Sirzechs Lucifer.

Due to the majority of Khaos Brigade Magicians being killed by Euclid's explosion spell, the Khaos Brigade Magician's faction, Nilrem dissolved.

The sky city of Agreas was seized by Qlippoth and became their main base as they stored the 666 (Trihexa) there.

It is revealed that Rossweisse's essay was about a method of seal the 666 (Trihexa), as Rossweisse began to wrok on method to seal the 666 (Trihexa), should it ever be awakened.

Unknown to the general public, Diehauser Belial had defected to Qlippoth and wanted to learn about what had happened to his cousin, Cleria Belial.
