Chapter 1: The Beginning

(Magic is Real)

Hyoudou Residence

Issei Hyoudou, a 13 year old boy with dark brown hair almost black hair and brown eyes. Was currently staring a book on his lap. He has bought it on a whim and is currently cursing himself for his stupidity.

The book itself was a pure black color and was worn and tattered. Most likely from years of use and abuse. The book gave off an eerie feeling, normally Issei would stay away from a book like this considering it wasn't anywhere near his interests in terms of subject. Like seriously the title was a joke anyway,

Solomon's Guide to Magic.

The book itself talked about magic being real and it had hundreds of different types of magic. It talked about different races of the supernatural. Kitsunes, Devils, Angels, Veela, Phoenixes, and Dragons, the book claimed they were all real. To think he wasted his allowance on this, and he couldn't return the damn book.

Seriously this book was a fucking joke, it even had a way for people to 'unlock' their magic. Well he was bored anyway might as well do it. The book said that you had to meditate and it even had a guide on meditating.

After reading the guide that explained how to meditate step-by-step. Issei laid down on his bed and closed eyes and slowed his breathing. For a few seconds all Issei saw was darkness pure black darkness. But then something happened that shocked Issei to the core. In the pure darkness a blue light is shining and it was gradually getting bigger and bigger until the black space was colored blue.

Opening his eyes, Issei gasped in shock. His vision was different, everything was completely blue. Looking around Issei noticed his parents downstairs and there figures were completely black with a red outline. He gasped in shock again, he was able to see through the walls. Holy shit he can see through walls and possibly clothes! Suddenly everything came rushing to Issei and his eyes widened in fear, he started hyperventilating. He had to grab the edge of his desk to keep himself from falling to the floor. Calming down his breathing and closing his eyes, Issei was back in the blue space. As if sensing his intentions the blue glow faded and shrunk back into that of a small blue flame. Opening his eyes again his vision returned to normal.

Smiling in absolute joy and amusement, Issei cheered loudly enough to worry his parents..

"Issei, are you okay honey?" His mom called from downstairs.

"Yes, I'm okay." Issei yelled back to his mom.

Issei quickly went back to celebrating before everything hit him. Magic was real, so that means all those dangerous monsters were real.

All those beings that hunt, eat, and kill humans. Succubi that feed on the sexual energy of humans. Demons that steal and eat the souls of humans. Dragons that eat humans for midnight snacks. Since he's human he had no real way of defending himself. Humans are just naturally weaker than all of these supernatural beings. All he has is a book that can help him learn how to combat the supernatural.

He needs to learn magic.

He needs to learn how to fight.

Wait…

Holy shit succubuses are real! Does that mean he has a chance to get laid by a sexy demon.

NO! He needs to focus and not think about getting laid by sexy demons and beautiful angels. Issei can imagine it now as those big tits bounced frantically as they ro-.

Fuck! This is not the time to be a pervert and think about getting laid, even if it's a beautiful angel.

…

...

Wait… does that mean the Biblical God is real!

Does that mean other Gods and Goddesses are real!

Those arrogant pricks that fucked with other's lives for their own amusement. Medea of Colchis was the perfect example of that fact. Forced to kill her brother and betray her father all thanks to the manipulation of the Greek Goddess of Love Aphrodite. Who forced Medea to blindly love Jason, a human hero who Aphrodite herself favored. Even after being by his side for years, Jason decided to marry someone else other than Medea, who saved his life numerous through the use of magic. He called her a witch and soon everyone she knew called her a witch. Medea was betrayed and controlled constantly through her life thanks to the Gods and this could very well happen to him. Even if the legend is actually a legend and never really happened which Issei is doubting, it was the perfect example of what could possibly happen to him.

And he has no way of defending himself.

With speed that surprised him he picked up the book and start reading. He needed to prepare and actually study seriously for once in his life.

In the back of his mind Issei was glad he decided not to buy that dirty magazine he was eyeing up earlier.

Hyoudou Residence

Few Hours Later

Issei rubbed his eyes which hurt from reading for so long. He then decided to test his theory and closed his eyes and called upon his magic again. He opened his eyes and saw his parents on the couch watching T.V. He closed his eyes again and forced his magic again.

What he just did is Element Sight a hybrid between Sensory and Eye Magic. From what he can understand from the book. Elemental Sight allows him to see the magic that is either in the air in the bodies of other people. Not only that but in all him to see the magic that was in the air within a 24 hour then uses the magic to create a layout of the world. He wasn't actually seeing his parents through the walls. What he was seeing was the information gathered from the magic in the air that gave him a layout of the house including the location of his parents. In theory if Issei is able to perfect the Elemental Sight he could actually see into the past and the future as far as 24 hours. Not only that but the Elemental Sight has a range of 200 meters meaning he could actually see a leaf falling to the ground through a building. (1).

(AN: Sorry about the AN but I need to tell you that Elemental Sight is from one of my favorite animes/manga/LN besides Highschool DxD and Naruto. If you want to know more about it the name of the anime will be in the Chapter Information. I would try to explain more about it but I almost fried my brain trying to understand and convert to the DxD magic system.)

There is so much theory behind Elemental Sight that he almost fried his brain trying to understand it.

Ugh who knew magic was sooo complicated!

Hyoudou Residence

Next Day

Currently Issei is sitting on his bed in the lotus position. Even though it is extremely uncomfortable the book said it helped with meditation and it did! It became easier to clear his mind in this position.

Around Issei an occasional blue glow would appear before disappearing and appearing again. What Issei is currently doing is pulsing his magic to et his body accustomed to calling upon it. After reading a few more hours last night Issei decided to go on magical training trip… in his room.

Not really much of a trip.

A few hours later Issei stopped the exercise and opened his eyes which glowed slightly from his continued use of magic.

He picked up the book again and started flipping through pages looking for another exercise to help him control his magic. After meditating for hours Issei can safely say he has a good grasp of the exercise. A few minutes of searching bore fruit to the Circulation Exercise, basically the user circulates their magic through their body. Doing this helps the person increase their control over the magic inside of their bodies along with increasing a person's magical reserves.

Sitting down on his bed Issei focused on his magic and slowly moved it from his navel into his arm towards the tips of his fingers. Then he guided the magic back up his arm and into the other. Then into his legs and head. Issei continued the exercise for a few hours before decided to go to bed early and rest up, even though it is 6 p.m.

As he went to sleep Issei dreamt of getting laid and kicking ass magical-style.

Hyoudou Residence

Next Day

Issei is currently practising the Circulation Exercise to learn how to regulate his magical energy.

As this was happening Issei's mind wandered elsewhere.

If Issei was honest with himself, he is afraid. Solomon had said their were such big differences in power between the supernatural and normal humans. The difference was like comparing heaven and earth. A Low-Class Devil could easily kill Issei with a single punch, he shivered at the thought of what Gods could do. Even Solomon himself who was renown as the King of Magic was never able to stand up to Satan-Class Devils. The only reason Solomon was so feared beyond his skill in magic was because of his familiars the 72 Demons named after the Underworld 72 Pillars, they were known as Solomon's 72 Demons of Ars Goetia.

It clicked inside of Issei's mind something that could really help him.

What if he got a familiar.

Having a familiar gives multiple benefits to the magician and familiar itself. One of them is the ability to call the familiar to assist the magician in battle. There is Shared Perception which is a Sensory Magic that allows the familiars to share their senses with the magicians. Also both familiar and magician get a small boost in their magical reserves.

Also it should be easy to get a familiar, he can just pick up a normal animal and turn it into a familiar. Or he could try the Familiar Summoning Ritual which was pretty easy to do.

Maybe he should.

Abandoned Warehouse

Few Weeks Later

Inside of an abandoned warehouse within Kuoh Town is Issei who is drawing some runes. Issei got off of his knees and wiped bead of sweat from his forehead as he inspected his work.

On the floor of the warehouse is a small magic circle made of chalk. It isn't ordinary chalk but it is saturated with magic allowing it to be used for the ritual. It was a pain to make considering his small magical reserves but he was able to pull it off. Now he is going to summon a familiar through the use of the ritual that will hopefully benefit him greatly.

"Okay let's do this." Issei said to himself, nervous of what he might summon. There is the chance he can summon some hostile being that will kill him without hesitation. So Issei is basically gambling his life on the ritual.

He then placed his foot on top of one runes apart of the circle. He then pour his magical into his foot then to the rune which caused the whole circle to glow blue. Then there was a bright flash as the ritual finished. In Issei's opinion it was kind of anticlimactic, well let's get this over with.

"Oh noble being that I have summoned. Do you accept the terms of the contract and become my familiar? Will you stay beside me as a companion in my hardships?" Issei said the words to instigate the magical contract known as the Familiar Contract.

Suddenly a voice can from the light and to Issei's inner unknown delight feminine.

"I have seen the contract thee have set forth. Will you tell me the name of my master and your goals?" The voice said to Issei.

"My name is Issei Hyoudou and my goals…" Issei stopped suddenly not know what he truly wants in his life. If this question was asked of him two weeks ago he would have said to become Harem King without hesitation

But… ever since he discovered the supernatural world he had always thought about what he wanted to do with his life. Becoming Harem King was still important to him but something else was calling to him. Telling him he is destined for something greater. Something that will leave a mark on history for centuries, Issei will be the one to leave that.

"Does my master have no goals?" The voice intoned quietly.

"No I have goals. That is to survive in this supernatural world. I want to show the supernatural world that being human doesn't mean i'm weak. I want to topple the ones sitting on their lazy asses at the top. I want to do it with not only power but skill. I want to become the King of Magic but that's not my biggest ambition….. I want to become no-... I WILL become THE STRONGEST HUMAN!" Issei said his small speech becoming louder and more confident as he spoke his vow before yelling the last three words.

Issei could actually feel the light smirk at his words.

"So that's your ambition… interesting. I have decided you will be my master, I will help in your goal Issei Hyoudou. My name is Izumi and i'm an Uchiha, I accept the contract set forth by thee."

Thus started Issei's journey of the becoming the Strongest Human. He will face many hardships and obstacles but he will topple them all and achieve his ambition.

End

My new story 'Magic is Real' this idea has been stuck in my head for weeks and it wouldn't leave. It is a Human and Magician Issei something rarely seen on this site. Yes Issei plans to become the strongest human. Issei is still pervert but he might grow out of it thanks to his new hobby.

Also Issei's familiar is not what you think it is.

I know this chapter is short but it's only an introduction.

This story is heavily inspired by 'The Magician' by tale master redux.

This story is IsseixHarem and i'll try to make it unique.

Issei's Harem confirmed

Also this story is more of a free time story it won't be my main focus, Uzumaki Legacy is. I just needed to get the idea out of my head.

Chapter Information

Elemental Sight (1)- This is from the series Irregular at Magic Highschool. I enjoyed the anime and it has one of the most OP MC i've seen besides Saitama. But it's magic system is complicated, not to the level of Nasuverse but it is. It could really be boring but I was enamored with it.
