THIS PAGE INCLUDES SPOILERS OF PAST CHAPTERS
IF YOU JUST SKIPPED AHEAD TO THIS, YOU WILL BE SPOILED
This page is a kind of Info Sheet for the story and will be updated after major events or whenever I feel like it. It will make it easier to keep up with events, people who've remembered, and abilities people have in this fic. I will also give extra information that I couldn't really fit into the chapters without having a character awkwardly explain it. I will not include any canon events or powers unless they weren't gained until AFTER the point where Issei came back in time, like [Diabolos Dragon] from later on in the canon series.
Powers:
Issei:
-Ki Network & Ki Manipulation: Ability to accelerate the healing of others, coat body parts to improve attack and defense, and improve his own abilities
-Using his ki, Issei can protect himself from a certain level of damage caused by light. After passing that threshold, Issei will begin taking a lot of damage, as seen when he used his own light-based powers
-Elemental Ki Manipulation: Issei can consciously (or unconsciously) invoke an element in his ki. Due to the fact that Issei is only good at fire magic, he can only add a fire element to his ki. When using his Boosted Gear and Draconic powers, though, his natural dragon element changes his ki, making it more powerful. This form of ki is called Red or Crimson ki.
-Current wielder of Excalibur Rapidly
-Part-Angel: Issei was bestowed angelic powers by God's System, though his Dragon blood corrupted the angelic powers making his power to control light slightly weaker but he cannot fall. Residing in Heaven while having thoughts or performing action that might normally make him fall will still activate Heaven's defense mechanism. Also, because Issei has the body of a devil, light still hurts him, even if it is his own.
-Proficient Swordsmanship: After years of training, Issei has become an excellent swordsman, though he is not as good as Kiba after the training they had when visiting the Underworld prior to Rias and Sona's first Rating Game.
-Incredible Innate Power: Issei's many years of training has significantly boosted his innate power such that he can even withstand Gasper's Forbidden Balor View and can continue to move around while those who are weaker or unprotected by their own power are frozen in time.
-New Techniques:
-Great Fire Breath
-Divine Javelin A hyper-compressed high-level light spear
-Amser A welsh word meaning 'time' that is also a spell Azazel taught Issei to create a time-frozen separate space
-Compress A technique Issei is able to use that stems from his Dividing Gear. He has reached the level where he can use it without bringing out his Dividing Gear. The ability compresses the size of any object Issei wants to as small as possible.
-Crimson Arrow Light-spears coated in Issei's draconic ki turning them crimson. Their power is several times more powerful than a typical light spear and they are meant to be thrown in groups.
-Reality Smasher An ability akin to the forbidden move: Longinus Smasher. This is an ability Issei is only allowed to use inside separate spaces or he could cause massive damage to the real world. This attack surpasses Longinus Smasher and depletes most of Issei's reserves of energy causing him to pass out and can only be used once a month. This is the only attack in all mythologies known to require a chant to use it.
-Multiplication. An ability using the Boosted Gear that Issei created. Instead of using [Boost] to double the power of attacks, Issei can use [Multiplication] to increase the number of attacks. This does not work on higher tier attacks and is really meant to attack large number of enemies with weaker attacks (i.e. with normal light spears/dragon shots).
Reality Smasher Chant
I, whose power is without measure,
Am the one who has denied destiny with the help of the Dragon God.
I have broken the reality of time, and reversed my own death.
I call upon the Power of the Heavenly Dragon sleeping inside of my Heart,
And the essence of all things living and unliving,
To unleash power that can bend the Universe to my will,
So that I may become the Red Protector of Dreams!
Akeno:
-Four-wings: Akeno has worked hard over the years since recovering her memory and has gained another pair of wings as proof. In the canon, she was only able to bring out more wings while using special bracelets made by Azazel. Due to all her training, her power, especially that of her light, has increased substantially.
-Light Shield: Using her powers of light and mixing it with lightning, Akeno is able to create an extremely powerful shield around herself. She can expand it to cover one or two other people but expanding it too much would compromise its strength. Currently, the shield hasn't been penetrated by anyone's attacks and, after the fight with Kokabiel, it is possible that only leader-class beings can actually injure anyone inside the shield.
-Enhanced Magical Energy: All of Akeno's intense training over the years has increased her inner source of magic and allows her to use stronger magic for longer than before.
Koneko:
-Improved Ki Control: Due to the fact that Koneko has only recently regained her memories, she isn't quite up to par with Issei and Akeno's difference in strength. Through Issei's guidance, Koneko has learned how to manipulate ki better than before but mostly for improving her offensive capabilities rather than defense. She also has yet to have been taught any other uses for ki.
Yumi:
-Hunter: Yumi, being under the contract of the Greek goddess Artemis, is a hunter-type. This means that she has many of the abilities that a typical hunter would.
-Yumi can hide her presence extremely well and is practically invisible to enemies in areas that aren't very open.
-She is able to calm herself down easily during fights which allows her to fight to the best of her ability
-Excellent Marksmanship
-Immense Holy Energy: From the experiments performed on Yumi during the Holy Sword Project, an enormous reserve of Holy energy was released in her body giving her endless supplies to use. She cannot, however, manifest this Holy energy in any way.
-Eagle Eye: An ability gained after constant worship to Artemis. Yumi's Eagle Eye ability causes her eyes to glow a dim orange when activated and allows her to see clearly up to 3 miles away. This, coupled with her Hunter ability Excellent Marksmanship, makes her a great sniper.
-Bow of the Legendary Hunter: A bow Yumi received from Artemis that is bound to her soul and can be manifested at will. The bow is made of wood from the famed tree Yggdrasil, gifted to Artemis from a Norse god trying to win her favor. The bow string is made from Artemis' own hair and is an excellent weapon for a Hunter-type warrior. The bow allows Yumi to shoot arrows at speeds that exceed the speed of sound.
-Spirit Arrow Quiver: A quiver gifted to her by the Greek goddess Hecate due to Azazel calling in a favor. Hecate created the quiver out of simple leather and bolts but enchanted it to be able to create spirit arrows from the holy energy in Yumi's body. (Think of the bound arrows from Skyrim) This quiver has been enchanted to be incredibly sturdy and can generate as many arrows as there is energy to use.
Valerie:
-Longinus Sephiroth Grail: Although Valerie's control over her Sacred Gear isn't very good as of yet, she is able to use it in a similar way to how she can in the LN. She can heal most non-fatal wounds but it takes longer than Asia's Twilight Healing and she has to be careful of the side effects. Azazel is currently helping her better understand how to use her Sacred Gear so as not to be affected by the side effects.
Father Time:
-Father Time is an ancient being born from the concept of 'time'. He is still a great mystery. I wonder who he is and what is his purpose.
God from the Bible:
-God from the Bible (AKA LORD, Elohim, Yahweh, etc.) is a being of immense power believed to have died during the Great War after using all his remaining power to seal away the dangerous Apocalypse Beast 666, or Trihexa. He said that he had actually used it as a cover to leave the world, and his followers, to their own devices for the future of the world. His true purpose in the world is shrouded in mystery. I wonder who he really is and what his true purpose is.
People Who Have Remembered:
First - Yasaka/Kunou: Yasaka's memories were triggered after hearing a prophecy about a perverted red warrior with a great love of breasts. She was pregnant with Kunou and the change in her mental state after recovering her memories affected the energy in her body, causing Kunou to also recover her memories.
Second – Akeno: Akeno recovered her memories while Issei was protecting her from some neighborhood punks. The trigger was Issei proclaiming that he would protect her after beating up one of the punks.
Third – Vali: Vali recovered his memories after Azazel accidently let 'Ketsuryuukou' slip when Issei told him about the strange nickname his pupil had. Hearing that name immediately caused Vali and Albion to recover their memories.
Fourth – Azazel: Azazel recovered his memories after Vali had said 'Oppai Dragon' in response to 'Ketsuryuukou' causing Albion to cry.
Fifth - Koneko: Koneko remembered after a combination of hearing Issei call her Koneko-sama (after she had smashed him in the gut with her fist) and hearing him mention his dream to become a Harem King.
Sixth – Asia: Asia recovered her memories after reliving the day she and Issei went out to have fun as friends and finally hearing Issei say that he would protect her no matter what.
Seventh – Xenovia: Xenovia recovered her memories after feeling Issei's immense power and learning that he was a dragon. Her desire to make strong babies with him caused her to her recover her memories.
Eighth – Kiba: Kiba recovered his memories after hearing Issei talk about him being the irreplaceable Knight of the Gremory.
Ninth – Gasper: Gasper recovered his memories after being reminded by Issei about how he needed to become a proper "Man of the Gremory", an ideal Gasper has held highly and has helped him grow significantly stronger.
Questions I Haven't Answered in a Chapter:
Alright, I've seen a lot of repeated questions so I decided to answer some of them here instead of just sending out PMs all the time.
-What about Akeno's mom?
Shuri Himejima's soul is still residing in the purple crystal which is presently in Ophis' possession back in Kyoto. She cannot be resurrected as of yet due to the fact that Azazel is still working on perfecting the cloning technology. Since he's mostly working on his own, only a couple others helping him, it's taken a long time to get it right. On top of that, they are also trying to make it so Shuri's new body will be able to last forever since it would be more painful to resurrect her just for her to die of old age in a hundred years which is like the blink of an eye for a devil or Fallen Angel.
-Will *so and so* be added to the harem?
Sona Sitri is not one of Issei's love interests and will not be in the harem. Yasaka, although interested in Issei, will not be a part of the harem. Gabriel will not be a part of the harem on account of the fact that she a seraph and should not engage in anything sinful like mating, especially not with a perverted devil like Issei who would definitely make her fall with his lust.
-When will everyone recover their memory?
The conditions for remembering is that some important (to that person) words or actions or both have to be performed in order for them to remember. If you guys can think of something that might make someone remember later in the story that is tied to Issei then that might be what I use. This whole remembering thing is going to go on for a while since I don't want to rush. This story is going to go on for a LONG time so no need to skip through anything.
-(Insert random question about Issei's new strength)
Issei has only ever used 60% of his maximum capacity (not counting Boosts) in any battle up until now. Issei's base power is somewhere around Maou level. There is a limit to how much he can Boost his power but, unless he was seriously trying to kill someone, he would never actually use a Boost to increase his power. Instead, all of his Boosts up until now have been used to put less strain on his body when using incredible amounts of aura for last ditch moves. One problem Issei had before is that he would run low on aura after a while so this time around, he's using the Boosts specifically on his total amount of aura, allowing him to fight longer.
Issei's power is held in check by 42 magical seals on his body that he can activate or release at will with Ddraig's help. Every ten percent up to 30% removes one seal (so 3 seals), from 30% to 60% is 3 seals(so 9 seals), 60% to 80% is 5 seals (so 10 seals), and 80% to 100% is 10 seals (so 20 seals).
-(Insert random comment about weird POV jumping)
So, I don't know how many of you read the LN (probably most of you since the events this stems from aren't in the anime or manga yet), but Ishibumi does that pretty often and with more characters than I do. I was never really interested in the POV change to people like Azazel or the bad guys but Kiba and Rias are two I always enjoyed. Third person is good for fights, too, so I wanted to use one of those. If you guys don't like it, well, I guess I could use them less often but one reason I use them is to get a different perspective on events that are similar to canon. Since Rias and Kiba still don't have their memory back, they're experiencing everything first hand so I thought it would be interesting.
To finish off with, guys I want you to know that I read EVERY SINGLE REVIEW that is made on my story so if you see others commenting something important like a plot error, you don't need to comment it. Instead, I'd love as much feedback as you can give me! I'm no well-versed author, just a weird fan who writes on the internet. I'm always looking to improve so give me all you got!
