Alex got into a battle ready position across from Vali, who was also getting ready with an insane smile on his face. Alex figured he probably had one on his as well though. Several magic circles appeared around the two of them, and they fired at each other. As the barrage continued pieces of their armor was being chipped off as neither one was trying to defend. It became a battle of endurance, until Alex suddenly shot forward once again and aimed a punch at vali's gut.
After dodging Vali also aimed a kick at Alex, who caught it with his arm. Using the grip he now had, Alex then launched a barrage of punches with one arm, while his other held Vali in place. Vali then launched another volley of magic attacks, while also kicking with his other foot to dislodge himself from Alex's grip. The two separated, and looked at each other while trying to think of how to gain the advantage.
Each one had several parts of their armor destroyed, but the damage was repaired in seconds for both of them. Alex then breathed in deeply, before his sacred gear shouted out,
And a torrent of flame poured out of his mouth, blanketing the entire sky with a sea of flames. After doing so he suddenly felt his power drain as he then heard,
'Damn, divine divider." Alex thought as Vali appeared from the flames with only a little soot on his white armor. 'He must have taken my power to defend himself' Alex thought to himself. Vali had a massive grin on his face from the battle, and Alex couldn't help himself and started laughing. After controlling himself, Alex and Vali squared off again, and rushed at each other. Their fists collided, causing a great boom to echo across the battle ground.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
After separating, the two backed up from each other, and repeated. They continued in a punching match, trying to overpower the other. Alex was enjoying himself so much, he nearly missed Ddraig's warning.
Alex was confused for a moment, before realization hit him and he closed his eyes. Due to losing his vision, he couldn't tell where vali's next punch was going, and he only threw up his arms to guard. After getting hit, Alex was thrown back into the ground causing a giant crater to form. He then stood up and brushed himself off, all while keeping his eyes closed.
'Is it out?' He asked Ddraig. It was a full moon that night, but since he needed to be present at the meeting, he decide to chance it because of the cloud cover. He also hadn't asked Azazel about the items yet because he couldn't see an appropriate time to, but was regretting it now. It appeared that the shockwaves from their fight had caused the clouds to disperse. He then turned to Azazel, since Vali stopped fighting due to Alex's weird behavior.
"Do you have the items I asked for the other day? I need them right now." Azazel could only gape at the situation. He then pulled a wood box out of nowhere, and passed it over to Alex. Alex couldn't see, so it took him a moment to get the box and open it to find what he needed. He could only feel around, but he eventually found the glasses, and hoped they would work. After he got them onto his head, Alex turned and looked directly at the full moon for the first time since he was reborn.
After several second ago by, he let out a sigh of relief, and thought to himself, 'at least they work, now I can fight during the night of a full moon. I better be careful though, so that they don't accidentally break or something.' Vali was just standing by waiting, as he wanted to continue his battle with Alex. However, right after he put the glasses on another figure appeared. As he looked at the moon for the first time, he saw them approaching before stopping near Vali.
"Yo Vali, aren't we supposed to go fight the northern gods? I came to get you since everything got botched here." The newcomer was wearing ancient Chinese armor, and carried a staff with him. Alex laughed internally at the situation. He just realized that it was quite something that he has a Saiyan bloodline, and met this worlds version of Goku. Bikou looked a over at Alex and said,
"So this is the current red dragon emperor? I wanna fight him myself now, mind if I have a go at him Vali?" However Vali just glared at Bikou before saying,
"He's my rival Bikou, I won't hand him over to anyone else." When Alex heard that however, he suddenly felt chills go up his spine. He recalled that it wasn't only girls issei attracted, and he started to truly worry about his future. Vali then turned and said to Alex before disappearing,
"Our fight was interrupted, but let's meet again at the peak of the world like you said. I'll be waiting for you there." With that Vali vanished and the situation was ended. Alex let out a sigh of relief, and released his armor before collapsing. This was his hardest fight to date, and he was already anticipating the next one. After that, the big shots started the cleanup, and Sirzechs and Serafall started preparations to imprison Katerea. They planned to gain information from her about the old Maou faction, and Alex hope that some of the more drastic situations won't be as bad. He just hoped that he didn't do any irreversible damage by letting her live. Then it was time for them to leave, but Alex called out to Michael before hand.
"Hey, I want to ask something. Can you let these two be able to pray without taking damage?" Alex pointed to Asia and Xenovia and asked because he didn't see any harm in it, and he figured it would also make the two develop more feelings for him in the long run. As he thought, Xenovia looked at Alex with a bit more passion after he said that. Michael ended up agreeing, since both of the girls stated that even knowing God was dead they would still pray.
After that the nights problems came to an end, the the night was far from over for Alex and the three girls in the dorm.
