Issei smiled as he pointed to Ophis.
"The Nothingness of Infinity."
He then pointed to his own head, tapping it twice in alluding to dreams.
"Great Red, the Illusion of Dreams."
He then pointed to himself and paused.
"Hmm. Well, I don't exactly know what aspect of Infinity I represent, but I do know this. I'm the Infinity that completely fills up Nothingness."
Ophis stared wide-eyed at Issei.
'My Issei.'
The young man in front of her filled the Infinity she represented. He was one who existed to burst within the Void, to completely surpass the trenches of Nothingness. That was why Ophis felt so…content with Issei. He filled her…with so much raw emotion. He made her feel so much. So many emotions, an aspect she had always thought she would never experience.
Feeling herself overwhelmed by a sudden rush of emotion, Ophis locked her lips with Issei, once more claiming his lips as her own. The Ouroboros Dragon loved Issei deeply, her desire growing to the point that she wanted to be with him forever.
She, Great Red, and Issei all represented the aspects of Infinity, and although Ophis still didn't tolerate the presence of Great Red, as long as Issei remained with her, then she could endure.
Releasing her lips from Issei's own, Ophis hugged Issei in a softer grip.
"Are you all right now, Ophis?" Issei asked quietly.
"Yes, I am fine. My Issei."
Next Day at the Mansion of the Phenex Clan
"Huh. So this is the Phenex mansion."
"Issei. Why, are we here?"
Issei smiled as he looked over towards Ophis, who held his hand. The couple stood in front of a large white mansion.
"I'm supposed to get some benefits today, Ophis."
Ophis tilted her head as she looked at the mansion.
"Benefits?" She asked.
Issei nodded in response.
"Yeah," Issei began as he rubbed his head. "The Devils are so eager to give me Riser's inheritance. Well, might as well go inside."
As Ophis held his hand tightly, Issei walked with her inside the Phenex mansion, looking around his surroundings in awe.
"Issei."
Both Issei and Ophis looked to see Xuelan walking over to them with a smile on her face. Her smile faltered a little when she noticed the powerful aura of Ophis, but she managed to compose herself as she looked back to Issei.
"I'll show you to where the meeting is. I'm glad you could make it."
Xuelan led Issei and Ophis through a series of hallways and doors, until the trio stopped a door painted in gold. Gaining an almost nervous look on her face, Xuelan sent Issei a slight smile.
"This is it." She said as she opened the door, revealing a large number of Devils.
Inside the room were none other than Sirzechs Lucifer and Lord Phenex who both looked to see Issei. They both widened their eyes and tensed as they noticed the Ouroboros Dragon holding Issei's hand. But eventually they composed themselves and turned to look at Issei and nodded to them.
"Issei Hyoudou." They greeted simultaneously.
Issei nodded to the both of them as he sat down on the remaining seat. As he looked around, he found that there were no more seats in the room. Before he could say anything, Ophis suddenly plopped down onto his lap, and wrapped her arms around his neck possessively.
The Devils in the room all widened their eyes in bafflement, including Sirzechs and Lord Phenex. The sight of an adult Ophis sitting on a teenage Issei's lap, brought a somewhat misleading thought to the Devils' minds.
Surprisingly able to keep calm about the position Ophis was in, Issei nodded to Lord Phenex.
"So let's start the meeting."
"As you wish." Riser's father stated.
Clearing his throat, the Phenex lord clasped his hands together.
"Issei Hyoudou. As a result of the actions of Riser Phenex, you have been bestowed his possessions. To what you have inherited is of a great importance."
Issei nodded as he listened to the next part.
"According to the documents regarding Riser's inheritance, you have been granted thirty billion bloodstones, this mansion and all of its items within it, secrets of the Phenex Clan possessions, and lastly-"
{Kukukuku. So you finally came to your senses and accepted what you have earned.}
Issei widened his eyes at the unexpected arrival of the deep voice.
'Ddraig?'
{Long time no talk, partner. I must say, you getting the possessions of a member of the Phenex Clan will be beneficial for you. The only question is: how good will it be?}
'I...I don't know exactly.'
{You remember what I told you during our battle? When you transformed into your Hell-Fire state for the first time during your battle with Riser Phenex, you gained the powers of a Phoenix. Do you know what that means, partner?}
'No.'
{That means, technically, you're part Phoenix. Part of the legendary creature. Kukukuku.}
'Part Phoenix?'
Issei widened his eyes as he found himself unable to speak.
{But the good thing is, you're still not a Devil. You're just a Phoenix. That's something to be happy about.}
'I...I'm not too sure about that, Ddraig.'
{You need to be partner. Humph. Kukukuku. See you around.}
Issei remained quiet as he felt Ddraig retreat into his subconscious.
"-trillion yen."
"Huh?" Issei stuttered as he came back to reality.
Lord Phenex stopped in his explanation as he noticed Issei's expression. Blinking several times, Issei shook his head and nodded.
He looked up at Ophis and smiled at her, ensuring to her that he was all right. He then looked back to Lord Phenex and Sirzechs.
"That's uh...that's a lot of money."
"That, is an understatement." Ophis added in her two cents.
The Devils in the room noticed the sultry, yet emotionless tone within Ophis' speech. Clearing his throat again, Lord Phenex resumed his explanation.
"Also, you constantly gain a large surplus of 5 million bloodstones a week. And much more."
Issei rose an eyebrow in amazement.
'The Underworld sure is rich.'
{Understatement of the Millennia, partner.}
'Oh, you're still here. I thought we were going to talk later.'
{You thought wrong.}
"Here, Issei. Take this."
