As an update, I won't be uploading chapters very frequently from here on. I might be able to pull one or two more by tomorrow, but maybe one or two chapters every couple of days until I eventually drop it. Hopefully not anytime soon though. Also depending on your outlook this chapter my end up being T-M rated.
{These Brackets}: Terumi speaking
[These Brackets]: Ddraig speaking
Disclaimer: I own nothing
"Uh, I guess so? Does tomorrow work for you? Around 12 anyway, since it's Sunday." Issei had only that to say so he could get out of this conversation as fast as possible. "Uhm...sure! I-I'll see you then!" Yuuma blushed a bright red before turning around and running away. "{You know she isn't normal, right kid?}" Terumi was the first to speak about the situation. "Yeah I know, I know just about everyone in this town, and there is no 'Yuuma Amano'. Whoever this chick is, she isn't good news." Issei squinted his eyes while he saw Yuuma run away, still blushing. Issei didn't trust this "Yuuma" he knows just about everyone in this town and even if there was someone new he would make it a point to meet them immediately.
Issei was never a very trusting person. Not even when around his parents. He never asked anyone to do anything for him unless he really needed it done while he was doing something else, but he still kept the bar as a tripping hazard in hell. "{That's some good perception kid! Now tell me, why do you know everyone in town?}" Terumi was both praising and questioning his statement, wondering how he could have possibly known, after all, despite the dragon in his arm he was still an ordinary human. "Because I keep this place safe, Terumi. If anyone needs help, I help. If people need to be taught, I teach. And if self-entitled little twats think they are better than anyone else and come to the idea of causing harm to another, then I make it a point to drill it into their head that they and everyone else are equally worthless. That is why I know, and that is why nobody who has lived in that town for more than a week messes with me, Terumi."
Terumi was speechless, he had never seen such righteousness from a human, and he knows Hakuman! And the feeling of worry crossed his mind for a split second saying "I better not get on this kid's bad side..." "{Well... that's-}" "Don't worry about it Terumi, now back to what I was saying, do you think you could teach how to use those chains of yours? I've always liked the idea of a chain being a weapon for both close and long-range combat. Plus it is fun to just break shit with them." Issei smiled and looked to the side as if he was imagining something that pleased him. Probably the destruction of something he didn't like all too well.
"{Well I don't see why not! And I am curious as to the way you would use them. Quite curious indeed.}"
Issei had just arrived on his street, thinking of things to say to his parents while he walks as slowly as possible. Issei steels his nerves the moment he walks up to the door. He opens the door and sees... A large Tupperware with a note that says "Hey honey! Me and your father will be out late, I made you dinner. We'll see you when we get home! Love you, Mom xoxo." Issei sighed and opened the container and his eyes lighted up like fireworks on new year's "SEAFOOD GUMBO!" Issei loved this dish. A few years back he and his family had gone on vacation to the American state known as Louisiana and had some of the food that originated there such as the many forms of Gumbo and Jambalaya.
Issei jumped with joy while waiting for his food to heat up in the microwave. "{Wow. I didn't know someone could get this happy over a mass of rice, water, and broken sea animals.}" Terumi said with amusement " YOU SHUT YOUR WHORE MOUTH TERUMI! This food is a gift from god! Each and every piece of protein, carefully cut with extreme precision and care, selected from the most delicious and uncommon animals a man could eat in his life, and above all, the sweet and spicy broth that the pieces floated in! And you can take the liberty of adding even more spice!"
Terumi was surprised about the sudden outburst from Issei, while he only cried tears of tongue-melting joy as he pulled out the food from the microwave and put some "Slap yo momma" spice, only further increasing the pleasure he felt from eating it.
A few minutes of eating later, he thanked his parents, and god for blessing this day of his with the world's greatest food. "Sweet married mother of Joeseph! That was delicious! Anyway, Terumi, get ready to teach cause imma get ready for class." Issei bolted to his room. It had a messy full-size futon in the far right corner with a large 70-inch plasma tv directly across from it on the left wall, gifted to him by a neighbor after he got a new tv. There was an L-shaped desk directly to his right with a desktop and tablet for drawing connected to it. There was also a reloading bench located just left of him with dust all over the tools and mechanisms that would move when used. There were various shelves covered in figurines from his favorite games and movies, and his walls were littered with old and new drawings from the kids he would babysit when he was asked. Issei walked over to his bed and reached under it and pulled out a large old trunk. The trunk had various blades and small arms usually used for self-defense and others not so much. He ordered almost all of them through some import channels from America on the internet. The others were of his own making from discreet order of the parts separately.
"Let's see here... Smith & Wesson, .45 Mag, Garand, oh wait, I still need to make the ammo for these. Damn! Ok, so firearms are out of the question so...blades it is!
Hey Terumi, which one of these suits your fancy? We got some curved balisongs, some karambit, some basic throwing knives, and some larger Bowie's and Trench knives." Terumi was impressed that this kid had so many weapons, let alone the fact that he can identify several different firearms with ease. "{Personaly I like a good pair of balisongs and some small throwing items, usually dagger or spikes of some kind. I'm surprised that you even have these, kid. Where the hell did you get them?}" "I have my ways, and I know most of these because my grandfather would teach me how to properly use and repair a gun if I ever decided I wanted to join the military. Glad to see his teaching weren't for naught." Issei looked at a picture of a young boy and an elderly man, presumably him and his grandfather, who was long gone at this point.
"So, spikes, balisongs, and daggers? I can do that." Issei pulled out a pair of curved Balisongs and spikes from the large trunk in front of him. He closed it once he got what he needed and pushed it back under his bed then continued to his closet. He pushed some clothes out of the way and pulled out a small, old box that had its lock broken off through many years of wear. Issei opened the box and pulled out a large bundle of cloth and unwrapped it, revealing a pair of beautifully glistening black daggers. "{ My god, those are beautiful! What are they?}" These, Terumi, are personally made shined, buffed, and sharpened obsidian daggers. I made these with my grandpa on the weekend of my 8th birthday with him. He got me a tutorial on how to make knives and wanted to work on them with me before he passed. These were the last things we did together." Issei pulled out the set of daggers from the box and their covering cloth into the light where both he and Terumi could see the colours the knives made on the ground below.
"{Kid, your grandpa was something else, that's for sure.}" "I know, I miss him dearly..." Issei looked saddened at the thought of his grandpa not being there with him to see the proper use of the daggers they made. Issei placed all his blades on his bed and then went back to his closet and grabbed a set of clothes. Issei grabbed a medium-length black trench coat with red highlights that had many sleeves inside the tail and sides of the coat. Probably for weapons. He also grabbed a pair of steel-toed combat boots, blue jeans, a pair of black leather gloves, a white dress shirt, and a set of bandoliers that he wore around his waist and his shoulders.
Issei put on all the clothes he pulled out of his closet and placed his knives into the proper sleeves and set off to the garage where he kept his bike. Issei walked into the garage and uncovered a motorcycle. HIS motorcycle. Issei pulled off the sheet to reveal a Suzuki GSX-R600, He custom painted it red and black on the evening of the birthday he got it and it looks just as intimidating you would think as its power is generated by its inline four-cylinder liquid-cooled 599cc engine. Working with a six-speed manual transmission and the drivetrain develops 104 horsepower and 44 pound-feet of torque. This thing was a beast and Issei wasn't afraid to show it.
Issei grabbed his house keys and helmet from the side of the garage and rolled the bike out after closing the garage and locking the front door. After finishing with securing the house, he hopped on his bike and rode to the woods just outside the west side of town, taking as many back alleys as he could without drawing suspicion.

*An hour before*
A small white-haired first-year eating a chocolate bar stood in front of the school gates, waiting for a boy with brown hair with green streaks running through it. When he walked out of the school she rolled around the right side of the gate wall, hiding from sight while the boy walked through the gate. She waited for him to walk a few dozen yards before tailing him to his home. The boy had been muttering to himself the entire time he was walking. The entire time she had been following him, she kept feeling more than just them. There was her, another over to the left of her, who also seemed to be tailing him, and three presences directly in front of her, and the boy included, though she couldn't see the other two and one of them was incomprehensibly sinister and malevolent. The boy was walking over a bridge and stopped when a girl called his name. " Uhm... excuse me... but are you Issei Hyodou?"
The girl spoke to him, blushing redder than a freshly ripened cherry. The white-haired girl ducked behind a small garbage can and leaned past it so she could see what was happening. The girl who called out to Issei had purple-tinted black hair and dark brown eyes. She called herself Yuuma Amano before proceeding to ask Issei out on a date. Issei paused for a moment before replying, he said yes and specified when would be most convenient for the both of them. Yuuma then ran off, still blushing like a cherry while the white-haired girl focused on Issei. 'Why is a fallen angel asking him on a date? What would The Fallen want with him?' The girl was lost in her own thoughts before refocusing on Issei after he began speaking loudly.
"Yeah I know, I know just about everyone in this town, and there is no 'Yuuma Amano'. Whoever this chick is, she isn't good news." Issei paused for a second then spoke again. "Because I keep this place safe, Terumi. If anyone needs help, I help. If people need to be taught, I teach. And if self-entitled little twats think they are better than anyone else and come to the idea of causing harm to another, then I make it a point to drill it into their head that they and everyone else are equally worthless. That is why I know, and that is why nobody who has lived in that town for more than a week messes with me, Terumi." The girl was shocked at these words. 'Is he the reason there is almost no crime here? Is that the reason so many people like him? Who is Terumi?' They got lost in thought again after hearing him from so far. She regained focus a minute later only to realize that Issei had left.
'I should report back to the president ASAP'
*The ORC Room at Kuoh Academy*
In the clubroom stood the white-haired first year, "The Prince of Kuoh" Yuuto Kiba sitting on the back sofa reading a book, and Rias Gremory sitting at her desk with her friend Akeno standing at her side.,"So, what info did you get on him Koneko?" Rias Gremory directed the question at the girl standing in front of the desk she sat at. "Mmm. He likes to talk to himself a lot, almost like he's having a conversation with somebody. He never stopped muttering to himself the entire time only stopping when a fallen angel spoke to him so she could ask him on a date, but when she left he started talking again he started talking about how he knew she wasn't a real person. He said that he knows everyone in this town and that there is no one named 'Yuuma Amano'." Koneko spoke in a monotone voice, never once showing much of an emotion. " So he is suspicious about her. But the fact that he said he knows everyone in town is a bit of a stretch... What else did he say?" Rias Gremory was going over the new info in her head, while also paying attention to anything else Koneko had to say.
"He also started to talk to someone who wasn't there. I guess his name was Terumi. Issei went on to say that he is the reason that there is almost no crime in the town, that the reason people like him so much is that he always helps when he can and that he would confront anyone trying to hurt another and force a 'realization' into them." Koneko had begun to feel uncomfortable and stopped speaking after that last sentence. "*Sigh* Thank you Koneko, go get some sleep, I will relay this to Sona."
"T-thank you, president." Koneko left the room and once she did, Rias began talking to Sona over the phone, telling her everything that Koneko had stated.
" I understand, I try to see if I can get anything on him through legal records and the sort. I'll report back on Monday, Rias. Have a goodnight." Sona hung up on Rias, leaving her with Kiba and Akeno, wondering what their next move would be.

*Back with Issei, just outside of town*
Issei had just arrived in a semi-closed field. He was standing in a small clearing with trees all around him, and enough space to move around unrestrictedly. Issei stopped his bike behind a tree, just outside the ring of space and parked it. He got off and removed his helmet, resting it on the seat of his bike, and walked into the clearing. Some of the trees had holes shot directly through them. Gashes and chunks cover the rest as if someone had mercilessly attacked them. There was also a large tree house sitting in the tallest set of trees in the area, no more than the size of a small cabin. Issei made his way up to it, climbing the tree like he had done so many times before now. "{ *Whistle* Damn kid, nice place you got here.}" Terumi chuckled in amusement at the inside of the treehouse. Inside was a Punching bag and karate dummy on the left wall and a large deck that covered the back wall from end to end. The desk had various firearms on it and a bulletin board on the wall above it with several notes and photos of Issei and his grandfather. "*Sigh* Terumi, I'm gonna be honest with you, I fully expect something bad to happen tomorrow. That Yuuma girl gives me incredibly weird vibes. Something is up with her, and I intend to question her about it. So, any tips on what we can do?" Issei walked over to the desk and pulled off a photo of him and his grandfather. The photo was of them holding rifles and targets, His grandfather held a target in his left hand.
The target had several holes in it, mostly in the outer circles of the bullseye and several more holes in the smaller targets in the corners. Issei's target however had the bullseye completely missing, none of it was left, not even the ones in the corner were there. Every piece of red on that target had been completely obliterated. Issei's eyes started to water up before he wiped his eyes and placed the photo back on the bulletin. "{Well, first what you want to do is-}" Terumi was about to continue before a loud booming voice spoke to him. [Terumi, Tell him this: raise your right hand and focus. think of the strongest emotion you have, then say the words " Boosted gear!"] "{Whatever you say ya big lizard. As I was saying, want you to want to do is hold out your left-hand and focus, think of your strongest emotion.}" Issei started listening to Terumi immediately and did as he said, holding out his hand and focused on it."{ Now say this: "Boosted Gear, Form!" and that's it for the first lesson.}" Issei did as he said and shouted, "Boosted Gear, Form!" A bright red light came Issei's arm as a red wristguard with yellow spikes on the sides and a large green gem in the back of the palm. Issei stared at the gauntlet with surprise when a voice began to speak. Issei didn't recognize it, he knew it wasn't Terumi but listened anyway. "[Hello, Issei Hyodou. I am Ddraig, The Welsh Dragon of Domination! Now, that we have been properly introduced, we need to have a conversation.]"
Both Issei and Terumi paid attention to what Ddraig had to say. He explained the basics of this world to both of them. How supernatural beings exist, how there had been a great war centuries before, how he became a Sacred Gear, and how Issei was destined to fight the wielder of Albion, the vanishing dragon, and Ddraigs rival. Ddraig also informed how Yuuma Amano was a Fallen Angel and that she most assuredly had other motives. "I see, so I hit the nail on the head about Yuuma, then I should be prepared in case things go south. I don't have my guns, and since my knives are too short and she can fly, I'm gonna need your help Terumi." "{No problem kid! Let's do this outside though, I don't want to mess up your cool fort!}" Issei had moved to the field outside, as Terumi instructed, and began listening intently. "{ I don't want to explain it to you as it's too complicated, even for me to explain, so imma just beam my knowledge of it into your head.}" "Wait, is that safe?" "{Don't know! Don't care! Doing it now!}"
Issei clutched his head as a wave of information surged through his head. Issei understood exactly how to activate it, but he would have to learn how to use it on his own, just like his Sacred Gear. "Well, that's, actually pretty cool! Let's give it a shot." Issei took a stance. His knees were bent, his feet were pointed straight foward, and his arms were spaced evenly with his shoulders as he focused on opening a set of portals behinf his back. Issei opened his eyes and saw a set of six snake headed chains circling him. The chains were coloured different than what he was expecting after learning about them from Terumi. They were a mix of green and red and black. The eyes of the snakes were green, the body of the snakes were black, and the aura around them was a crimson red, similar to the colour to the boosted gear Issei possessed, this must have been Ddraig's influence on Terumi's power becoming Issei's.
"Oh, this is AWESOME! Thanks for the help Terumi!" Issei was ecstatic to see the chains he had been hyped up to see since Terumi had told him about them earlier. "{I know! Isn't my power amazing!}" Terumi smiled while he spoke, his voice littered with arrogance and pride. "{ Now then, try doing something cool with them, let's see what you got kid!}" Without a moment's hesitation Issey shot the chains forward, stabbing them into the body of a fallen tree, lifting it up with ease, then pulling it apart from the inside out. Issei focused on the snake aspect of the chains and pointed them at another tree. After focusing on what he wants them to do, he yells out "Fire!" as the snakeheads shoot a viscous green liquid at the tree, melting it on the spot. " Sweet! I can't believe that worked!" Issei had stars in his eyes as he looked back and forth from the tree that had melted and the chains that fired the projectile.
"{HOT DAMN KID! That was impressive! Even I didnt know they could do that!}" [Yes, very impressive Issei, but I have to ask, do you know hand-to-hand combat? It is a requirement that I enforce on all of my host to know at least some type of fisticuffs.] While Terumi was speechless at Issei's creativity, Ddraig asked Issei a serious question. "Yes, Ddraig, I know how to fight barehanded albeit like an amature. Ive always enjoyed boxing, I've always liked the idea of being able to punch faster than the eye can see, with the strength to punch through steel like nothing! So ive been training since I was a kid. I gotten decently good, but not enough to beat anyonw properly trained. So im gonna have to train harder if that is what is needed Ddraig, so thank you for bringing that to my attention Ddraig. Anyway, I think it's time to head home, it's getting late. Thanks you two, I appreciate the help youre giving me. I think I can hold my own if anything happens tomorrow."
Issei put the chains and boosted gear away and went over to his bike, putting on his helmet and starting the bike. Issei drove out of the woods, heading back to town. Issei noticed that his parents cars still weren't there. He dismissed the notion, thinking his parents were on a date, he put his bike up in the garage. covering it back up. Issei closed the garage door and went into the house. He went to his room and took off his coat that had all his knives in it, his socks and boots and went to bed, waiting for his encounter with Yuuma tomorrow.
.
.
Issei opened his eyes to see a large void, similar to what space looked like. In the space was him, and two other figures, a large red dragon, and a man wearing a yellow hooded cape with silver sleeves, an open dress shirt under a vest, and yellow eyes that showed face through the void around them. "Uh, who are you two? "{ Well, how rude! We've known each other for over a day, and you have the gall to ask us who we are? You hearing this Ddraig?}" The hooded figure spoke with playful spite in his voice while directing the question at the dragon. "[Yes, Terumi. Quite rude indeed.]" The dragon nodded in agreement as they both turned to look at Issei. "Wait, Ddraig? Terumi? That's what you two look like? I had expected Ddraig to be a dragon, but Terumi? I see that you failed to mention that you are... hot, to say the least. So what are we doing here exactly? "[Well partner, I thought it was high time we all had a conversation face to face. With both me and Terumi surfacing in the supernatural world, you are bound to get into fights with other supernatural beings, including the White Dragon Emperor. I suggest you get stronger as face as you can, Issei Hyodou]" "{Yeah kid. You've got some spunk, get better with those chains of yours, and try and get the snakes to show up too!}"
"I understand, thank you guys, I owe you for all the help you've given me so far." Issei bowed in appreciation towards Terumi and Ddraig. Suddenly the void around them started to shine a white light. "[It seems like we are running out of time here partner, until we can meet like this again. Goodbye Issei Hyodou.]" "{Yeah kid, see ya around!}" While Ddraig bowed his head as a parting gesture, Terumi did a two-finger salute, putting his right hand to his head with his index and middle finger pointed out and saluted while the void around them was swallowed by the light and Issei woke up.
.
.
Issei opened his eyes to the bright morning sun, his worst enemy. He got out of bed and stretched his body, getting ready for his date with Yuuma later. Issei went to the bathroom to use the shower and brush his teeth. Once he was done with that he put the clothes on he wore last night except for his coat, he went downstairs hoping to see his mom and talk to her... but she wasn't there either. Neither was his father. There was no note, no moved pieces of furniture, nothing. Issei guessed that they were just staying at a hotel for a night of "adulting" after their date. Issei made himself an omelet with cheese and sausage for breakfast before going to his backyard and started a light warm-up before he met up with Yuuma. Once Issei had finished his food, he went to the backyard and summoned the chains and sacred gear around him. "Hey Ddraig, what does this thing do exactly?" "[ The boosted gear has the ability to double a person's power substantially every couple minutes. Though it has a slow start-up, if let alone for long enough, can even rival god's own power. Continue to use it and its own power will increase as well.]" "I see, thanks for the explanation Ddraig. That helped clear up the rest of the questions I had. I think I'm ready, looks go meet Yuuma."
Issei put on his coat and grabbed a spare helmet that he kept for passengers on his bike as he put his on. He opened the garage and started the bike in the direction of his date. On his way there he could feel the presence of a few others following him, probably more fallen angels since he was going on a date with one today. A few minutes of riding later, he was at the fountain in the center of town waiting for Yuuma when he heard her call his name. "Issei! sorry I'm late, did you wait long?" Yuuma wore a white string dress and brown shoes. "No, I got here just a bit ago, you ready to go" Issei hopped on his bike while he looked at Yuuma, not breaking eye contact with her as he handed her a helmet. " You have a motorcycle! That's so cool!" Yuuma put on the spare helmet that Issei handed her and jumped on the back seat of the bike.
.
.
Issei took Yuuma to a myriad of places. The mall, the movies, a clothes shop where he got her a decent bracelet. Throughout the entire date, he still felt the presence of the ones who were following him since this morning. He was wondering where to go for the finale of the date when Yuuma spoke up "Hey, Issei, do you mind if we go back to the fountain? There is something I want to do..." "Sure Yuuma" Issei started the bike and started back to the fountain where they met up earlier. 'So I guess this is it, if there was a better time for a revelation, that would be the perfect moment. "[{Yeah} That would be a good time for a confrontation partner. Steel your nerves, it might end up being us, or her.]" 'Thanks guys, good to know you have my back.' Issei had a hard look on his face as they arrived at the fountain. Yuuma ran to the fountain after getting off the bike, waiting for Issei to follow her. " I've had a really good time today Issei, thanks for today... Hey, can you do something for me?" Yuuma turned to look at Issei, smiling with her eyes closed, slowly walking towards Issei. "Sure, What did you have in mind?" Issei knew what was about to happen but kept a calm face.
" Would you... DIE... for me?" Yuuma spoke into Issei's ear, slowly grinning while her voice slowly becoming more mature as she grew in size. Her clothes disappeared as her naked body became covered in what looked like metal and leather, her height and bust increasing in size. She sprouted a pair of black wings that were just above her hips. "Well, Issei? Would you please die for me?" Yuuma spoke with a deeper and more mature voice that reeked of arrogance and entitlement. "No, go fuck yourself you damn crow." Issei replied the moment Yuuma spoke again as he reached into his coat, grabbed a set of throwing spikes, and threw at Yuuma. She deflected them with a purple spear that materialized in her hand in a split second "Wow, you brought weapons to a date with a girl! What did you expect a fight or something you dumb virgin?" Yuuma mocked Issei, trying to get him angry. " Yes, actually, I did. I expected it the moment you spoke to me. I checked, there is no 'Yuuma Amano' in this town, you don't exist. Even if you were new, I would have met you while you were moving in."
Yuuma was surprised to hear this from Issei, who thought he was just some kid who liked to help out people around town. "Besides, I can't die right now, I still need to talk to my parents about something." Issei had a smolder on his face, keeping his nerves as steady as possible, but it shattered when he heard Yuuma speak again. "Oh...? You mean, THESE parents?" Yuuma laughed with a sinister shit-eating grin while two portals appeared in front of her. From the portals came the rolling heads... of Issei's parents. Issei stared at the heads, eyes wide, and pupils shaking. "What? Too scared to even speak? At least you'll join them soon. Besides, you're too dangerous to be kept alive! Lord Azazel's plan must nod be hindered in any way, so die already!" Yuuma threw her spear at Issei, who deflected it with his right-hand balisong.
"You know something... Yuuma?" Issei spoke in a cold, heartless tone. "Have you ever wondered why everybody respects me? Well, do ya?" Yuuma couldn't speak. She was paralyzed by fear. A black, green, and red aura appeared around Issei in the shape of a snake's head, paralyzing Yuuma with its stare. "It's because they know what would happen if someone did something very stupid. That is why there have been no murders, no crime, and no assault cases in this town for years. Not even the yakuza dare to step foot in this town. Because they know what happens when I get mad." All of a sudden Issei's tone changed drastically, his hair stood on end, going completely green in colour. His sacred appeared on his hand as his yellow eyes became slits, like a snake. Issei's voice changed too. "{ You fucked up BAD you fallen BITCH! Issei's Gone APESHIT because of you. I'm buying you time to make peace with whatever god would let you pray to them before it's too late! HAHAHAHA...}" Terumi's voice came from Issei's mouth before it started to fade. "{OOHP, TOO LATE! NICE KNOWIN YA! HAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!}" Terumi's voice stopped completely before Issei spoke again. His yellow slitted eyes burning with anger and sadness, his solid green hair standing like a bed of radioactive nails.
[BOOST]
"Congratulations. You have genuinely angered me. I think you deserve a reward... I have thought of the perfect gift. Shall I give you... DESPAIR?" Issei's tone was cold, heartless, terrifying... Yuuma still couldn't move, scared for her life after the sadistic voice spoke from Issei, after his hair and eyes changed. 'What is this terrifying presence coming from him?! He was only supposed to be a potential threat to our plans! This was supposed to be in and out! WHO IS THIS KID?!' Whose were Yuuma's last thoughts before Issei sent a snake chain through her stomach. He pulled on the chain that went through her stomach, pulling her along with it. He slashed at her with his balisongs, cutting and slashing at her when she got close, causing thousands of small, deep cuts across her body. Issei spoke again " Serpent's Cursed Sting." Issei created a large black and red sickle-like blade, slashing at Yuuma with it from above, causing her to slam into the ground. He picked her up by the neck, both hands around her throat as two large snakes crawled over his arms and bit into her shoulders, pumping venom into her body.
[BOOST]
This caused Yuuma incredible pain and agony as the venom went through her body, slowly melting it from the inside from its high acidity. Issei slammed her to the ground then spoke again. "Serpent Laceration" The moment Issei slammed Yuuma into the ground again, he began stomping on her repeatedly, with all his weight on his foot before grinding his heel on her head and kicking her away, making her hit the fountain, breaking it from the impact and landing on the other side. In a desperate and pathetic attempt to turn the tables to her favor, Yuuma flew towards Issei with her spear only for him to casually walk towards her, swinging one of his chains in his hands. The moment before Yuuma would hit him, Issei spoke again " Venomous Bite." The split second before Yuuma could hit Issei with her spear, he flipped above her, throwing chains around before landing with his arms stretched behind him. As Issei began to pull the chains towards him slowly, thousands of sharpened chain links cut into Yuuma's flesh, causing her to scream even louder than before.
[BOOST]
With one final tug of the chains Yuuma stopped screaming, her throat had been slit by one of the chains, making her lose her voice as she began gasping for breath. Issei turned to look at her, feeling only disgust when he looked into her eyes. He knew exactly what she was thinking. 'Please don't kill me Issei... I didn't mean to, I was ordered to do it! Please... I love you...' Issei slowly walked towards her, smiling like a madman. 'So this is how it feels, to finally let loose! It feels so, LIBERATING' Issei smiled even harder, more sinister than before after his realization in his head. When Issei finally reached Yuuma, who was still gasping for breath, he picked her up by the throat and tossed her into the air before speaking for the final time. " Dark Burning of a Thousand Souls." Below Issei came a red and black coloured circle, from it, rose hundreds of snake chains, hitting Yuuma as they pass her and coalesced into a giant snake that circled her before biting her with enough force to tear a truck full of dry cement, layered in steel, causing her arms and head to shoot off her body while the snake went to fetch the pieces that flew off. And with one final [BOOST], his arm began glowing red again. HisBoosted Gear had evolved into a full gauntlet, covering all the way up to his elbow. The new gauntlet what a much deeper red than before, with the golden spike from the sides, now on the back of his arm. On his hand was an entire sleeve of metal that covered all his fingers in a deep crimson red. All the fingers had clawed tips. Issei drew his attention away from his hand and onto the pieces of Yuuma that were being scattered.
While the arms flew in separate directions, Issei focused on the head and sent one final chain to retrieve it. "This is what happens to people who mess with me. If only you noticed sooner, Yuuma. Maybe we could have had something, but then you decided to kill my parents. Goodbye, and good riddance." Those were the final words Issei spoke to Yuuma before her eyes could lose the little bit of life that was left. Just before the light could fade from her eyes, he tossed her head into the mouth of the titanic-sized serpent that awaited the final piece of food from its master, letting her feel the final despair he could give her. The scariest thing that Yuuma had experienced in this one-sided massacre was that, no matter what, Issei never raised his voice. He never shouted. He never swore. And he never shown any mercy. This was the true terror that she had unleashed upon the world. The fury of a gentle man.
Issei dismissed the giant snake just as it finished its meal, happily returning to its sleep, waiting when it could feast again. Issei sighed deeply as his hair and eyes returned to normal. Brown with green streaks through his hair, and golden yellow eyes with round pupils. Issei walked to the heads that still lay on the ground, picked them up, and cradled them as he rocked back and forth. " There is no use in hiding anymore. Come out you three, don't worry, I've already killed all who I wanted to. You have nothing to fear." Issei didn't even look in the direction of the three figures that came down from the building above. The figures were Rias Gremary, Sona Sitri, and Koneko Toujou.

Chapter end.
Yeah, that's the end of that. The next chapter will be Issei meeting the rest of the devils and the start of the Asia arc. It's gonna take me a bit to get what I want into the story so it might take a bit, hopefully, I can get it out before Wednesday cause I got school. Stick around for it! It's gonna be good.
Also, Issei won't have too much of a harem. Rias might be in it, Akeno too. Also, this version of Issei is ever so slightly bisexual, knowing that there are good qualities of both males and females, so Kiba and maybe Vali, but we'll burn that bridge when we get there. I know for damn sure that Asia and Gasper won't be in the Harem as he will see them more like little siblings since they both admire him, and Issei doesn't want to see them hurt. Koneko for sure, but that's just my personal bias towards short people. I might add Sona and some of her peerage too, maybe Ravel, but I'm still debating it.
Anyway, that's all for today, bye!
