Returning Welsh Dragon Hero - Chapter 16
🕑 Added 2024-07-11 16:02:01 +0000 UTC"Mom, Dad, Asia, this is Vergil, I mean Vali." Issei introduced the White Dragon Emperor.
"Oh, you're the friend he invited! It's so nice to meet you." Miki greeted the silver haired teen.
"Any friend of Issei is welcomed here!" Gorou extended a hand, that Vali carefully shook.
"You're not even remotely as cool as Dante." Vali bite back toward Issei, before looking at his parents with awkwardness but not displeased, just unused to this joyful cheeriness. "And, um... thank you for having me." He nodded and stepped back.
"So, everyone ready?" Issei said to his parents and Asia, before turning to Vali, raising an eyebrow, giving him the same question with the look.
"Yes," Vali nodded. "Obviously. Get it over with."
"Heh," Isse chuckled and cast the teleportation circle his feet and it expanded to encompass everyone.
Issei had gotten the coordinates and design of the long range teleportation spell to Erimo, Hokkaido from Rias.
He took a minute to ensure the spell was stable and bring up the magical energy needed for it.
Then he let the spell activate and light glowed from the magic circle, engulfing everyone.
When the light show stopped, and everyone looked up again, and saw how their surrounding changed.
No one seemed to notice them for a few minutes. A perception filtering spell for people without magic not notice them. As they began moving toward the first hotel they saw, they because noticeable again, but as they looked like normal tourists, most didn't give them more than a glance.
"Woah, magic is amazing!" Miki said in awe.
"We saved up on so much gas!" Gorou was equally ecstatic.
"I know, right, honey?" Miki agreed with her husband.
"Say," Gorou blinked as he looked at the hotel, closely now. "Issei, that's not the hotel we made reservations at?"
"Oh, didn't you hear?" Issei smirked. "Azazel, out of the kindness of his heart, decided to pay for your vacation. So I decided we should go for something more lavish."
Miki and Gorou blinked at that, taking a minute to register what was said.
"Yeah, he's very sorry and all that." Vali interjected, almost in a grumbling way of wanting to get things over with. "Here, have these. And the hotel rooms are basically reserved for a whole 30 days."
Vali handed the Hyoudou couple, as well as Asia and Issei, a credit card each.
Issei's parents knew how Vali was, and his relation to Azazel as Issei told them. They were skeptical of the boy, but Issei told them to treat him like a normal teen, as he had a good feeling about him.
So they did just that, and found the boy much more polite and nicer than someone related to Azazel would seem like.
Miki and Gorou looked on in surprise at the gifts. Asia stared at the shiny card in confusion. Issei pocketed his.
"Vali-kun, you didn't have to do that." Gorou said with a reluctant look.
"Thank you, Vali-kun. You're a good kid!" Miki stepped forward and patted the boy's head.
Before Vali was standoffish, now he looked thrown off, slight blushing, while looking around in confusion and wanting clues on how to react.
Gorou looked aside coughed, to hide his laugh.
Issei took a picture.
"Oi!" Vali growled, and stepped back from Miki's reach.
"Is it okay to use these? They're not gonna cause a problem." Gorou asked.
"He probably won't even notice." Vali shrugged.

"Penemue, what happened here?" Azazel, General Governor of the Grigori, asked looking puzzled at the safe in his office left open.
"It seemed someone had opened your personal safe and emptied it, Sir." Penemue said with a calm air. The Chief Secretary of the Grigori had a slight relaxed smile of amusement on her face.
"Yes, I can see it." He said, giving her a side eye.
"It seems Vali was the one to do it." She noted.
"I can see the written note, Penemue. I'm asking why and when did this happen?" Azazel said with annoyance.
The note read:
"Going on vacation. Taking the money and stuff for unknown expenses. —Vali"
"Why did he also take the liquor with him? Do you know how difficult it was to make that white Russian with Amrita?" Azazel whined.
"Maybe he's having a teenage rebellion." Penemue asked, uncaring.
"No." Azazel's eyes widened in shock and understanding, before a proud smile entered his face. "No, taking money? He's being lazy about asking, or going to any of our banks. But taking a booze?" He sniffed, and wiped an imaginary tear. "My boy's finally grown up. He's going to party and get drunk with girls."
"...Yes, I'm sure it's that." Penemue deadpanned. "Now about the budget this month... Sir?"
Azazel now looked worried.
"...Vali took the card to my private accounts." He said after a moment. "Those are the ones for my personal researches."
"You mean whenever you're bored and something shiny catches your interests?" Penemue asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah. those. So, um, Penemue, can I borrow—"
"No."
===x===
"Alright then, onward!" Gorou now said with enthusiasm, pumping his fist in the air.
""Yay!"" Miki, Asia and Issei echoed his sentiment, and mirrored his actions.
"...Yay." Vali weakly copied them.

In the Underworld, on one of the many territories of Gremory Family, were Rias Gremory and her Peerage, invited to a beach resort by her brother, Sirzechs Lucifer.
They were all currently at the beach in various swimwear outfits.
This included Sirzechs full Peerage members too.
"Nee-sama, I'm thankful for the invitation but..." Rias pouted, not sure how to explain her feelings.
She had wanted to invite Issei to a vacation spot of her own during the Golden Week holiday, before she heard he had plans of his own, and then her brother's invite came out of nowhere.
Rias couldn't well say no to her brother as she knew how hard he worked, and how little time off he took, so she had to cherish the time Sirzechs made for her.
"Why did you come with everyone?" She meant his Peerage. "Also, even telling me to unseal Gasper... is there something more to his vacation?"
"Haha, why wouldn't I just want to spend time with my sister?" Sirzechs chuckle, standing with Rias at the beach. He was wearing what looked like a 1920s one piece swim suit that extended into shorts. "By the way, did I ever show you this trick with our Power of Destruction?"
Sirzechs made a concentrated spheres of crimson and black Destruction energy... then started juggling them.
"Um, no?" Rias said with confusion, as she looked around and started to see each of her Peerage member was being approached by someone of Sirzechs' Peerage to square off away with them.
Bahamut and Enku gestured for Koneko to follow them, and with a reassuring nod from Rias, she did.
Kiba left with Beowulf and Souji Okita.
Akeno went with MacGregor Mathers and Surtr Second.
And nervous Gasper was taken aside by Grayfia herself.
Gasper Vladi was a vampire turned reincarnated devil by Rias. Saved by Rias after he escape a horrible home life, and having died in the attempt.
He was born with a potent and powerful Sacred Gear, Forbidden Balor View, that made him freeze anything he looked at in time. It made him unable and afraid to socialize or interact with people. Even his devil contracts were made online.
Yet against Grayfia, the effects of his Sacred Gear seemed to wash off of her, thus his confusion and slight easiness.
"Nee-sama, is this... is this some kind of training camp?" Rias asked with some surprise, yet hopefulness. She had at time hoped her brother would help her train for dealing with her eventual unwanted betrothal, but she understood his position, thus never asked that.
"'Training', hahaha, Rias you know I, as Satan Lucifer, can't be biased and help my little sister or give her preferential treatment." Sirzechs laugh her off, making Rias now looked confused. "We're just hanging out as siblings, while we trade stories and I show you some neat things I know about our Family Trait as entertainment." He gave her a knowing look. "I just figured your Peerage and mine could use a break, and now they are just organically hanging out. Nothing else to it. This is just a normal family vacation."
The more Sirzechs talked and more Rias began to smile widely.
"Oh, right. Silly me~," Rias tapped her head with her knuckle and poked her tongue out. "So how I make Destruction Spheres—I mean, Destruction juggling balls again?"
