Draconic Deus is the name given to the Earth of the DxDverse. Finally, Issei and Raynare have returned home with a few new companions, Yang Xin, Xiao Ning'er and Yu Yan.
When the Dimensional Travel was successful, Issei and the others arrived in front of the Hyoudou Household. Looking at the people that had arrived, Yang Xin and Ning'er were nervous. Why? That's because they would be meeting Issei's parents. To be fair, they were nervous because they got married to Issei without their permission.
"Are you girls nervous about meeting my parents?" Issei asked. Xin'er and Ning'er nodded their heads. Issei then patted their shoulder to calm them down. "There's nothing to worry about. My parents aren't that strict, and they'll love you".
"Are you sure that your parents won't mind me?" Yang Xin asked. She accepted that she was in love with Issei and is now married to him. But her age is more than that of Issei. Yang Xin is afraid that Issei's parents might think she was a cradle robber. "I mean, I'm older than you by a significant gap".
"Ha-ha-ha!" Raynare laughed. This was hilarious since she was so much older than Yang Xin. "There is nothing wrong with that. I mean, do you know how old I am? I've lived in the Hyoudou household for a while now, and they know my age. Let me tell you, I'm more than a few thousands of years old".
Yang Xin and Ning'er were surprised at this revelation. However, Yu Yan wasn't as she knew their people that looked young despite living for such a long time. After all, Yu Yan herself is thousands of years old.
"I knew that if one was to reach a certain level of cultivation, they would regain their youth, but all this time, I thought Raynare was the same age as Issei," Xin'er said. She then looked at Issei. "Could it be, Issei, you're into older women?".
"I won't deny that older women have their charms. Whether it's their maturity, developed curves and whatnot," Issei said. But to him, all that was secondary. A woman can be the most beautiful person in the world, but if she had a toxic personality, Issei would never find interest in her, no matter how beautiful she was. "However, all that is secondary. I want a woman that has the drive to better herself, has a goal in life, and has a beautiful and unique personality.
For example, there is Akeno. One would think that she was a proper lady. One could say she's a Yamato Nadeshiko. But in reality, she is a sadist that likes to play with her enemies. However, in all her sadist nature, she has a hidden masochistic tendency. Yet, she is as caring as she is beautiful with all that.
Another is Serafall. She is playful and fun to be with. However, when a situation calls for it, she would be serious at the drop of a hat. If there is anyone that she cares about gets hurt, she will do whatever it takes to make the people that hurt them pay a hundred folds.
Then there is Koneko. She is aloof and timid looking. However, beneath her petite frame is a strength beyond one would imagine. If it's for the people she cares about, she wouldn't mind putting herself in harm's way to protect them. One thing I love about Koneko is when she purrs whenever I rub her head. This is something she would never let anyone else do".
"All the women interested in you seem to be quite amazing people," Ning'er said. But no matter how amazing they are, she isn't any worst than them. This was Ning'er's competitive nature showing itself. "I would love to meet them in person".
"As much as you love to meet them, I think you'll be meeting my parents first," Issei said. He smirked at Ning'er and Xin'er. The two women shivered at the reminder. "Ha-ha-ha! Calm down. They aren't bad people".
Issei then opened the door to the house, and they all entered.
"I'm home!" Issei shouted. Immediately, multiple people went to meet him. "You guys are all in the same area? That's rare. What were you doing? And why does Xenovia look defeated?".
"Don't mind Xenovia, we were playing board games. Xenovia lost badly since she thought she could brute force everything in the game," Miki said. She was smiling since she finally got to see her son after a day. But then she saw three new additions beside him. "Uhm? Issei? Who are the guests?".
"Right, these are Yang Xin, Xiao Ning'er and Yu Yan," Issei said. The Trio bowed at Miki. Two of which called Miki mother. "They'll be living with us".
"Mother…I would like to formally introduce myself," Yang Xin said. She did so with a respectful bow while capping her hand. "I am Yang Xin. You may call me Xin'er. I am one of Issei's wives".
"I would also like to formally introduce myself as Yang Xin did," Ning'er said. She was doing the same bow and capping of hands as Yang Xin. "I am Xiao Ning'er, one of Issei's wives".
Miki, Gorou and the rest of the sane people in the house were shocked. Not because of Yang Xin, but because of Ning'er.
"What the fuck?!" Miki shouted. She was pissed! This couldn't be happening. Her Issei is a lolicon! "What the hell is going, Issei?! You better explain yourself!".
"Huh? What's wrong?" Issei asked. He didn't understand what was going on. Issei hasn't done anything wrong. "Did I do something wrong?".
"Did you do something wrong? You can't be serious? You don't even know if you did something wrong?" Miki said. She then pointed at Ning'er. The little girl didn't lie when she said that she was married to Issei as she saw a ring on her finger and a ring on Issei. "How could you marry a little girl, Issei?! She looks no more than thirteen years old!".
It was then that Issei realised. He forgot to remove the illusion he set on Ning'er. At the moment, Ning'er looks no more than thirteen. A girl that just entered her pre-pubescent age. To Issei, Ning'er looked like her adult form due to illusions not working on him, as he needs to actively allow illusions to affect him if he wants to see the illusion. Quite the opposite of what others have to do.
"Hold on a minute!" Issei said. He understood why his mother was so angry at him. Miki thought that he was a lolicon. "I swear to god she isn't thirteen! And I haven't done anything to her!".
Issei then removed the illusion on Ning'er, revealing her actual body.
Seeing what Ning'er looked like made Miki sigh a breath of relief. Her son wasn't a lolicon.
"Boy! You nearly gave your mother a heart attack!" Gorou said. Although, even he was about to get a heart attack when Ning'er announced herself as Issei's wife. But he was never going to reveal that. "Thankfully, her childlike look was only an illusion".
Irina stared at Issei. She was lagging behind. Irina couldn't believe that Issei was now married to three women. That's right, she saw Raynare also wearing a ring.
"Ahem, now that misunderstanding has been cleared… I would like to do the same introduction as Ning'er and Xin'er. I would like to formally introduce myself," Raynare said. She bowed her head and gave a wonderful smile. "I, Raynare, am also one of Issei's wives now".
The three girls showed off their rings. Each ring they wore was unique.
"Oh, my," Miki said. A day ago, Raynare was only Issei's girlfriend. But now, she was married to her baby boy. "Well, I welcome you three to the family with open arms".
Miki was smiling. If Issei has these many wives, he will surely have many children in the future. Meaning that she would have many grandchildren to spoil. But that wasn't all. Miki knew that there were many more women interested in Issei.
That's right, Raynare talks to Miki about people interested in her son. Miki couldn't stop but imagine a house filled with her grandchildren playing with her and having fun. Gorou was similar to Miki. However, in his imagination, he was the cool grandpa.
Miki and Gorou grabbed either side of Issei's shoulder and spoke in sync.
"Well done, Issei! Make us as many grandchildren as you can in the future! We expect more than ten with all the women interested in you!" Miki and Gorou said at the same time.
Issei chuckled at his parents. He knew how much they would love to have grandchildren.
In truth, Miki and Gorou wanted to have more children, but they were afraid. Before Issei was born, Miki had two miscarriages. When Issei was born, they felt that he was a miracle to their family. Gorou even prayed in the shrine for Issei's safe delivery during Issei's conception.
However, that also came with a downside. Miki and Gorou were afraid and no longer willing to try for another baby. The two previous miscarriage was hard enough to deal with. They didn't want to go through another one as Miki was nearly wrecked at the guilt of being unable to give birth. The best they could hope for was Issei to find a wonderful wife and give them many grandchildren.
Lastly, it was Yu Yan's turn to introduce herself.
"I am Yu Yan," Yu Yan said. She then bowed her head. "I am indebted to your son. If it wasn't for him, I would still be stuck inside a cave gathering my Divine Spark".
"Divine Spark?" Miki asked. She looked at Issei for an explanation. "What's that?".
"Divine Spark is the essence of a Spiritual God who has cultivated the Power of Law," Issei said. He then continued to explain. "Divine Spark is quite a fantastic thing as even when your body is destroyed, you can regather your Divine Spark and reconstruct your flesh and blood".
"So? She's a God?" Miki said. Issei nodded at her. "I guess we have another God in our mids".
Yu Yan looked at Miki with widened eyes. Another God in their mids? Which one of the people in front of her was the God? Issei saw Yu Yan's curious expression and knew she was looking for the God amongst them. He simply slightly pointed at Ophis, the little girl hugging his waist.
"Mom, Dad, I have a few gifts to give you guys. But first, I need to create new rooms for Ning'er and the others," Issei said. Although he knew that Ning'er and Yang Xin would probably sleep in his bed in the future, Issei wanted to give them their own private rooms for them to use. "This would be quite tiring, but it would be worth it".
With Issei's control over the law of Space, he was able to expand the space of the house with ease. His control was to the extent he didn't even feel that he's done anything. Before, when he expanded the space of the house for Raynare, Irina and Xenovia, Issei had to actively push the space to expand it, but now, all he did was think of expanding it, and it happened.
"This is amazing," Issei said. He was astonished at the power of controlling a law. Issei now had a taste of the law of Space. He is excited for the time when he uses the laws of Time, Life and Death. "Hold on, I think I can use the law of time right now".
Issei then headed to the bathroom and renovated it. It was a huge bathhouse type bathroom. When he was satisfied with his renovation, Issei then used the law of Time in the bathroom. He sped up time inside. It was a success! An hour inside the bathroom is equivalent to ten minutes outside.
Issei could have pushed the time difference further, but he needed to further train his control of the law of Time. Otherwise, he could end up destroying the space around him. Unlike the law of Space, this was the first time Issei was manipulating time.
"Ha-ha-ha! With this, the girls can no longer complain about needing a long time to prepare. They would have to spend six hours inside the bathroom to take an hour outside," Issei laughed. He would finally be able to take long baths as he did before. "It would be nice to soak for a while in the bath like I used".
When Raynare and the other girls arrived at the Hyoudou Household, Issei didn't have much time to soak in the bath as they needed to do the same. Couldn't Issei make another bathroom? It's not as easy as making a room because he would need to attach the new toilet to the house's plumbing. It's simply a pain in the ass. So, Issei decided not to bother with it after making one additional bathroom. But of course, one additional bathroom was not enough when Irina, Xenovia and Serafall started living in the Hyoudou Household.
"Hmm…Now that I'm thinking about it, maybe I should upgrade the house plumbing and the electric grid of the house. I can use Water Stone and Lightning Stone to make water and electricity and would recharge itself using ambient mana in the air. Then I can make our own personal sewage which could be cleaned automatically by magic," Issei said. He was thinking of having the household of the Hyoudou family be utterly independent of the country. "But doing that would be quite suspicious. Hah! Who cares! I can deal with it when it comes. I'll make the upgrades in a month. I still have other things to do in the coming days. After all, I'll be heading to the Underworld to join the Peace Treaty of the three factions and other mythologies".
After Issei was done creating the new rooms, he informed the others before he decided to head to bed. Issei was exhausted from his adventures in the Divine Continent. Not Physically, but mentally.
The following morning, while Issei and everyone were having breakfast, there was a doorbell ring. Issei answered and was surprised at who he saw. It was Irina's father, Shidou Touji.
"Mr Shidou? It's been a long time," Issei said. He knew what he was doing here. "I assume you're here for Irina?".
"I am," Touji said. Before he came to Issei's house, he was told to be careful and not anger Issei. "Do you mind if I come in?".
"No problem," Issei said. He opened the door wide enough to allow Irina's father to enter. "You can wait in the living room. I'll go and call Irina".
"Sorry for the trouble," Touji said. He sighed and waited for Issei's return with Irina. Touji was looking at the house and saw that it was vastly different from the way it used to be when he visited due to Irina coming over to play. "How times have changed. I can't believe that Issei would be such a big player in the Supernatural world. To top it all off, he is only seventeen years old. What could have happened to force him to become such a powerful person?".
A few minutes later, Issei arrived in the living room with Irina.
"Dad? What are you doing here?" Irina asked. Issei didn't tell her that her father was looking for her. "If it's about returning to the church, I already decided not to come back. I decided to follow a different path".
"I'm not here for that. I just wanted to make sure that you're doing well," Touji said. He smiled and gave his daughter a hug. Touji missed Irina dearly. "I also spoke to Michael and asked for a favour. If you're planning to continue staying in Japan with Issei, then the least you could do is continue your studies. With the favour I asked of Michael, you and Xenovia can enrol at Kuoh Academy".
"Really?!" Irina said. She did want to continue her studies, but she didn't want to go to a school that was different from Issei's. So, this was a blessing for her. "Thank you, dad!".
"Now, can you tell me everything that has happened so far?" Touji said. Irina pulled her dad to the couch. "Calm down, Irina. No need to pull".
"Sorry!" Irina apologised. She then cleared her throat before speaking. "Ahem! I'll start from the beginning. Xenovia, and I was sent here to Kuoh to retrieve the fragments of Excalibur that was stolen…".
Irina recounted the events that happened. Issei left the room and let the father and daughter catch up.
In the Dinning room, Miki, Gorou and the others were interested in knowing who the visitor was.
"So, Issei? Who was at the door?" Miki asked. But she had an inkling of who it might be due to Issei calling for Irina. "Was it Shidou Touji?".
"Yup, Irina's father came to visit," Issei said. He sat down on his seat and continued eating while speaking to everyone. Issei would swallow his food before speaking. "He came by to tell Irina that she and Xenovia would be going to school in Kuoh".
"I'm going to be joining you as well?" Xenovia asked. She didn't think that she would be going to school with Issei. "That's going to be quite a new experience for me".
"Well, I hope it's an experience you'd enjoy," Issei said. He looked at Xenovia. The girl was getting closer and closer to him by the minute. Xenovia was serious when she said that she wouldn't let him go. So, he let her do what she wanted. Xenovia wasn't half bad. Issei then looked at his parents. "Mom, Dad, remember when you asked me last time if I could help you get stronger so that I wouldn't have to worry about you being unable to protect yourselves?".
"God, that was long ago, but we do," Miki said. It was years ago. Miki asked her son if there was a way that they could learn how to do things he does so that she could help her son and protect herself in case of danger. "It turns out that Gorou and I didn't have the talent or magic capacity to learn magic. Why do you ask?".
"Although I'm not sure if I can teach you magic as I'm not sure if Divine Zhenqi could be a substitute for mana, I have a way for you and dad to get stronger so that you can protect yourselves in times of crisis," Issei said. He then took out a copy of Heaven's Path Cultivation Manual. "If you were to cultivate according to this manual, you would gain the strength of a Middle-Class Devil in the beginning stages".
"Wow! That's amazing!" Serafall said. Everyone was shocked at her arrival. "Having the strength of a Middle-Class Devil from the get-go is quite a feat".
"Where did you come from?" Issei asked. He remembered that she wasn't home last night. "I didn't see you here last night. So, I thought you might have returned to the Underworld".
"Ha-ha-ha! I won't be returning to the Underworld until later with you and Sona. I was with Sona teaching her transformation magic," Serafall said. She was happy that Issei could make Sona love Magical Girl outfits. "By the way, you seem to have additional women in the house. Are they your girlfriend?".
"They're not," Raynare said. She then had a big smirk on her face. Raynare showed her finger with her wedding ring. "Along with me, Yang Xin and Ning'er, we are Issei's wives!".
"No fair!" Serafall said. She was a little jealous that she didn't get a ring from Issei, but two new women did. So, Serafall pouted. "I've known Issei for longer! How come I don't get to have a wedding ring?".
Issei thought about it, and he decided to give her a ring. If Serafall was able to wear the wedding ring, her feelings for him were true. Of course, Issei was a little worried as Serafall was a Satan in the Underworld. Issei being married to her could become an issue for some of the higher-ups in the Underworld. Then again, he could just deal with the people that would dare cause trouble for him and Serafall.
