As Issei’s power grew, a new challenge emerged. A mysterious figure appeared in the distance, cloaked in shadows. This was no ordinary foe. Issei could feel the dark energy emanating from them.

  ---

  “Who are you?” Issei demanded, his voice filled with authority.

  If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

  ---

  The figure stepped forward, revealing a familiar face. It was Zeref, but this time, something was different. He was wearing a dark cloak, and his eyes glowed with a sinister energy.

  ---

  “I told you, Issei,” Zeref’s voice was cold and calculating. “This isn’t over. I will have the power of the Oppai Gear... and when I do, no one will stop me.”

  ---

  Issei’s eyes narrowed. “Not on my watch.”
