Issei's pov
When I woke up I had a splitting headache and a dull ache on the left side of my face. When I tried to open my eyes I could only see out of my right eye. I'm on a bed in a room i've never seen before. Looking around I can see a few things in the area. Such as a dresser with a large mirror and a cuboard in the corner. However before I can do anything the door to the room opens and in walks a man who looks to be in his 70's.
"Ah so you are awake now eh. Good to know you are still alive.", he said. "Who are you I ask?", I ask . "I am Lo Wang. Yes I know my name is a joke ok.", he replies. I chuckle even tho I don't know what the joke is.
However my smile fades as I ask the big question. "Mister what happened to my face.", I say as I feel the bandages on me. He looks at me sadly. "I won't sugar coat it kid when I found you you were close to dying. What ever slashed you took out you left eye . You've been knocked out for 3 weeks. I could not take you to a hospital for reasons so I spent a lot of chi healing you to decent health.", he stopped to take a breath.
I just stay quiet not sure how to take this information. "Kid i'm sorry to say this but you will never have a normal life ever again. Once you encounter the supernatural you can never unsee them. Trust me I know.", he said before asking. "Did your parents tell you about your heritage?".
I nod and reply. "Yes my mummy told my before sh..she..", and at that point I break down in tears. The mister moves in and pats me on the back. "So I guess she told you who I am then right.", he says to which I nod as i'm still crying.
"So kid I know you have a lot on your mind right now but i'm going to give you a choice. You can try and pretend you never saw any demons and try to life a normal life or you can let me train you on how to fight these thing. No matter which option you pick demons will still come after you but I will still protect you as I am your godfather.", he says to me.
I take a moment to think on this . On one hand I can try and act like nothing happened and hope my godfather will keep me safe or I can learn how to defend myself so this can never happen again.
I look up to mister Wang and give my answer. "Please teach me how fight these things.", I say. He looks at me and smiles . "Kid I may not be the most fatherly person in the world but I promise you i'll do everything in my power to give you a good childhood.", he says.
I smile again . It's comforting that this stranger is willing to take me in.
"Kid I don't know every little thing about your family but I know a decent amount . So we may make a lot of interesting allies.", he said. That got me thinking. "What am I?", I ask.
His face takes on a thinking expression before he answers. "Honestly I really don't know. But if the story is true then you are the most crazy being in existence. If I have to bet i'd say your 50% devil 30% vampire 10% yokai 10% umbra/spiritual human. I know confusing but that's the best I can come up with.", he says.
"Which reminds me. I got something for you.", he says before he leaves the room. After a few minutes he comes back with a book in his hands. "your parents left this with me on the of chance something happened . Its holds everything you need to know about what demons to expect , what weapons are in your amulet and who is safe to make friends with along with a few misc things in there.", he says putting the book in my hands. I just stare at it . Even in death my parents still care for me.
"So kid we will start your training next week ok. I will train you in the art of swordsmanship , gunmenship and chi mastery. However i'll try to teach you whatever I can from your book ok.", he says. I nod my head in agreement.
1 week later
The whole week before now has been a really good one . Mr Wang is a really funny man. I still don't know what the joke is with his name is but eh. Over the three weeks I was knocked out mr Wang claimed me as his legal godson so no adoption house for me.
Right now I have a wooden sword in my hand facing mr Wang who also has one. "Now the first thing you should learn with a sword is how to block. Now when I attack you move your sword to crossover your body.", was all I got before he swings his sowrd at me.
As soon as he does that I move my sword to cross my body like he said and I block his. He swipes again and like before I block it. However as he swipes again he stops before it come close , crouch's and sweeps my legs from under me.
"Hey that wasn't fair.", I yell out. "Kid no enemy you meet will fight fair they will do any and every dirty trick in the book to kill you", he answers. I nod reluctantly. As much as I don't like it hes right why fight fair when they won't.
I get back up rise my sword and prepare for another round of combat.

The rest of the sword lesson goes as well as you would expect. Me trying to hit mr Wang and blocking all his strikes. But now we are at a lesson I am looking forward to. Gun lessons.
Mr Wang has given me a pistol and has asked me to fire at a few targets a few feet away. "Just relax and focus on breathing kid.", he says to me. I breath in and out , take aim and fire my first shot.
It hits just below the bulls eye. I keep firing till the clip in the gun is empty. I hit the bull's eye three times while the rest of the shot land near it. "Not bad kid you seem to be a natural at this.", mr Wang says before handing me another clip.

And lastly the final lesson for the day , chi control. "Now before I can teach you how to use chi I must first explain what chi is to you. Chi is … well it's sort of an inner power you use . It is not magic and while close is not senjustu . It comes from things like courage and honor so focus on stuff like that.", He explains.
"Focus on what you want to protect in the world . Those you hold dear in your life. Now imagine that feeling as a warm fire. That's it now focus that fire in your hand and throw it.",he says.
I follow he every word . I imagine my parents and all they did for me. I imagine the feeling turning into a warm plusing fire in my hand. Finally I throw the fire at the dummy target. A fireball the size of a base ball flies from my hand and hits the dummy in the chest burning it.
I hear clapping from behind me only to see it is mr Wang. "Nice kid I honestly didn't thing you'ed get it on the first try. Now i'm sure you feel tired. So focus on that fire again and think of it energizing you.", he says.
Again I do as he says and feel the results. I'm no longer tired. I feel on top of the world. "Now we keep this up for 2 more hours then you have the rest of the day of.", I hear.

The chi lesson was fun . I had no idea humans could do stuff like that. Now i'm reading the book mr Wang gave me and found out it's also like a journal for my ancestor Sparda. He got up to a lot of things in his youth. For one he was very fond of hopping dimensions . Like for one stealing a cursed sword and dark gem from one universe .
Or punching a spoiled boy trying to kiss a girl who wanted nothing to do with him. Turns out he would become a vampire . The boyfriend of said girl would go on a quest to kill him. What the guy did not know was that once he won the head of his enemy had one more trick up his sleeve to kill him. It would have killed him but Sparda interfered.
I wonder how he went to these places. After thinking that the amulet around my neck started to glow. After a few seconds of light there was a white hilted katana in my hands and like on that night the memories of how to use it flooded my mind.
I slash in front of me then behind . I do an uppercut with it before slashing left then right with it and then sheathing it. I don't know why but I felt like I had to do that.
After going through the memories one more time I somehow know to think of where I want to go then slashing with the sword to which it will cut open a portal in space.
As much as I want to go places like my ancestor I stop myself as I don't know to much and could end up in a bad place . So sadly I put the katana next to my amulet and it goes back in.
However that gives me another idea. To see all the weapons left for me in the amulet. Before I get a chance tho I hear a shout for dinner and go getting my plans for the moment.
While at the dinner table mr Wang noticed some thing wrong with me . "Kid is something wrong?", he asked. "No it's just I was playing around with my amulet earlier and came close to going to another universe.", I say.
"So why didn't you?", he asks. "Well I didn't want to get lost and never get back.", I say. He thinks for a moment. "Well I say get a couple year training in before you jumps worlds kid ok.",he says. I nod in agreement.
Well can't wait for the day I hop worlds.
…...
And that a wrap for now. I hope you are finding this fic to be entertaining.
Yes I know Wang is not that old but like I said I had to play with time a bit here.
Now I hope you like the explanation for what Issei. Sorry if my action scenes are crappy but it's the best I can do for now. Next up like my other fanfic's there will be time skips. Again this should go with out saying but as this is Highschool DxD Issei will have a harem. And lastly like i said last chapter there will be crossovering and opness for Issei.
Thank you for reading till next time.
