Welcome to chapter 1 I don't DxD or any other show that is mentioned

'Thoughts'

"Speech"

'Beings of power thoughts'

"beings of power speech"

'Looks like I'm dead...' I think back to my uneventful death. Here I was, a broke college student, walking to my classes when out of nowhere an air conditioner fell on my head and crushed it like a watermelon. The air conditioner came from the upstairs apartment that I normally walked by.

'It seems I'm in some sort of void, or a purgatory of some sort.'

After what felt like an eternity, a box appeared in front of me.

Welcome, soul!

'What the hell?' If I had a body I would have jumped.

I am a god... of sorts

'Am I going to hell or what?' I think, preparing for the worst.

Nah, I'm here to reincarnate you into the world of Highschool DxD!

'Wh-a?' I think in shock

I need to know a few things first, your new name being one.

I quickly got over my shock after a moment, before joy hit me.

I was going to be incarnated into DxD, this is the best thing that could have happened to me.

Speaking of names...

'Hm, definitely Isaac Summer' I loved my name in my previous life so why not take it to the new world.

Good, now then, pick a race.

'Humans can have Sacred Gears so that's definitely something to think about. They also have the ability to choose their factions in theory. Devil's have an OP magic system and a peak human body that only grows stronger. Angels have too many restrictions, and Fallen Angels are just too unorganized.

'So it's a toss up between Humans and Devils... A sacred gear is too much of a gift to pass up, as even the weakest ones have benefits'

'I choose to be a human' I think out loud

Very well, try to be entertaining too, will you?

'Sure-' I think to myself, only to be cut off as I felt my soul being stretched and tossed around like a bowling ball.

"Ugh" I slowly open my eyes and notice where I am. It seems to be a really plain bedroom with just the essentials. I look down while laying on the bed and noticed a note on top of me.

"Isaac Batham, welcome to the world of DxD. Your current house is in Kuoh Town, and home to you and your absent parents, who are working constantly. I suggest a walk to the park nearby."

"Well, I should probably check and see what I look like first"

I look at my now childlike body in wonder. I have dark brown hair with vivid green eyes, with very pale skin. I also look to be 12 years old. All in all I was a pretty cute kid.

"No time like the present" I say to myself after a moment, before walking out of the house. I open the front door and I can tell that I'm in a heavily suburban neighborhood. Following my gut instinct I travel through the area before I realize something.

"Where the fuck is the park?" I kick myself for leaving without a map.

'Go up a street and turn left' a deep pitched voice in my head said.

A cold sweat overcame my body before I realize that I'm not crazy, and that this is Highschool DxD universe, so the voice must be my Sacred Gear.

'Thanks, one thing though, who are you?' I waited a moment for a reply, but no answer. Shrugging my head I do as the voice said and I saw what seems to be a park after a moment of walking. I look at the decrepit park and see a rusty swing set and a sand pit. Noticing that the sun is still high in the air I sigh and sit down at the swing. With nothing better to do I turn towards my mind as I try to think of what my goal was in this world.

'Peace?' I think after a moment. 'That's if I survive long' That's when it hit me, I'm a human child in a world that's literally kill or be killed. Devil's that rape, angels that smite, and God's that wouldn't think twice about annihilating me in a second if I so much as looked at them wrong.

'I'm fucked aren't I?'

The voice from earlier came back in it's deep, rumbling tone.

'Find a reason' it said simply

I think about that for a moment and realize that I need something to strive for. Something to dedicate myself too. Footsteps broke me out of my concentration and before I know it there is a women in front of me looking at me with a strange look.

"Don't you have parents kid?"

"Why the fuck do you care?" I say with some spunk.

"Crude language for a child. I was just wondering if someone was waiting or looking for you seeing as there is nobody else in sight" Red flags immediately came to my mind. A cold sweat formed as I realize the danger I'm in if she's hostile.

"Yes someone's on their way to pick me up right now" I lie to her straight to her face.

"Really?~" she said in a sickly sweet voice.

'Shit, she saw through that' I think as I prepare myself to run.

"Well... follow me to the police station and I'll make sure you get home" She continued with a glint in her eye.

'Fuck, Fuck, think! If she's a stray devil I am screwed. If she's a fallen angel she would sense my Sacred Gear. Either way, out running her is not an option. Without thinking about it I mouthed off to her

"Sure, and I'm sure you'll have candy there too" That seemed to do the trick as her nice facade vanished. I froze as I saw the rage on her face. It looked inhuman.

"You damned brat, I was going to make your death swift, but you had to mouth off." She opened her mouth wider than humanly possible, that amost looked like she broke her jaw, and went to lunge at me. Time slowed down as the voice in my head spoke clearer than I've ever heard them.

"Have you found a reason, body thief?" Time seemed to stop as the words registered in my head.

'I didn't know this body had a soul before me!'

'Either way, your going to die here if you do nothing'

'I fucking knew this would happen, never again will I listen to strange notes' I swore to myself.

'What should I do?'

"That's for you to decide. Answer now and I might be inclined to save you" It spoke again with some annoyance. Without thinking I answered

'I want to survive and live happily ever after. None of that will happen if I die here!'

"One more chance" it said in a tone that wasn't joking. I guess surviving isn't good enough.

It was if a fog had cleared in my mind, more than anything… this person in front of me was going to kill me, for no other reason than to satisfy her hunger. Someone like that, no, something like that has no right to live in this world.

I say my final response.

"I want to kill all monsters like the one before me."

'Good answer' the deep voice said with a dark chuckle

Time had resumed. I close my eyes as I wait the inevitable. Inches away from me, her eyes widen as she stops mid lunge as she hits the ground and starts coughing. Coughing up blood, and soon I feel a heat coming from her, one so intense that I thought I was near an inferno. It started at her feet, she was disintegrating on the spot. She coughed again and I noticed purple flames coming from her mouth. Before I knew it, she was gone, turned to ash on the ground in front of me. My eyes widen as the adrenaline leaves my body.

"What the fuck just happened?!"

"Your welcome" the voice said in a smug tone

Thoughts were racing through my head as I thought about the purple flames that turned the stray devil to ashes in a violent manner. Only one Sacred Gear had purple flames that could annihilate something like that, Incinerate Anthem, a Longinus-class Sacred Gear that could even harm a god.

'Very good' it spoke with amusement

'I'm glad I picked a human' Now that I'm no longer in danger I sit back by the swing. I hear another set of footsteps. I turn and look at the man that appeared before me.

"Kid, have you seen anything weird around here?" He said to me with some urgency in his tone.

Thoughts immediately came to my mind as I took another look at him. He was wearing white robes and had ashen blonde hair. The look on his face told me he was looking for someone, or something.

'Maybe he's here for the devil I just killed?'

"Nope" I say with a bland tone after a moment.

"You should probably head home kid." He said with some relief on his face.

'I guess it was his job to kill it' I think to myself. If another child came here the moment I did, they would be killed on the spot.

I look at the man who was walking away and thought to myself on what factions he's with.

'Those white robes, must be the church' I think after a moment. One thing though, if this is Kuoh then why does the church have a presence here. Now that I think about it, wasn't Irina's father an exorcist? I guess they would've had to leave before the devils make their move on this town. Another thing, why here specifically, this is a pretty unassuming town. Could it be random? There is an abandoned church in town, could it be that it's active during Isse's childhood?

'I'll have to check it out, for sure'

"Whelp, time to head home, it's getting dark." As I look to the sky, which is turning a dark orange with the sun setting.

'Fuck, I have no clue where to go, any ideas Mr. Anthem?' I think, hoping it would answer.

'Yes, it's that way, I'll guide you back and we can have a little talk' I gulp immediately.

~15 Minutes Later~

I walk to the small house in front of me, and noticed two cars that weren't there before.

'Guess it's time to meet the parents' I think, not looking forward to it.

I open the door, immediately expecting my parents to scold me for staying out so late. I was not expecting the look that they gave me as I walked into the living room.

Cold eyes stared at me, making me feel uncomfortable.

"Uh... Hi?"

"We're leaving on a vacation tomorrow" The brown haired, middle aged looking women said to me in an indifferent tone.

'I don't even know their names now that I think about it.'

Even still, I popped up at the thought of a nice vacation.

"Where are we going?" I say happily.

"We are not going anywhere, I trust you know how to make dinners?" She said with the same indifferent tone.

Living on my own as a college student had taught me how to make due with what I had, so being left alone for a week or two would not be a problem. But that begs the question, why were they leaving me, 12 years old, by myself for a vacation?

"Yeah, I can cook for myself." I say now tense.

"At least you are good for something" The black middle aged man said to me with a tone of scorn

'Yikes, what kind of relationship do I have with them?'

"We will leave you enough money for food for the next few weeks, if you run out, that's your problem" Dad said after a second of thinking.

"You're dismissed" Mom said with an indifferent look.

"Righhht~" I say, dumbfounded by what just happened. Nonetheless I make my way upstairs to my room. I think about my new position in this world as I lay down.

'What was up with them' I think to myself, kind of mad.

'They've always hated you, from the beginning' The voice spoke again. I jumped a little at that.

'What do I call you?' I think not a moment later.

'Anthem is fine' it said.

'Well Anthem, you mentioned me being a body-thief?'

'I find myself quite curious at the thought of the boy's soul randomly dying and merged with your foreign one, I would have burnt you to ashes if it weren't for the strange note you found on you'

'Shit I was that close to dying immediately as soon as I got here?' A pit formed in my stomach

'Indeed, your first answer to my question almost immediately got you killed as well'

'What do you mean?'

'I'm not a fan of being subjected to merely surviving, I want you to have a clear goal, only weaklings want to survive, you want to do something interesting with my power'

'Interesting? OH you mean that the fact I want to kill monsters like the one who attacked me, isn't that just survival instinct?'

'I prefer the term massacre' it says simply.

'You want me to massacre everyone in my path?'

'Not all, stray devils will do for now'

'Aren't you a little evil to be a holy relic?' My body started to burn immediately after saying that.

'Shit! I'm sorry!' As I say that the burning dies down

'I will let that slide, you'll find beings of power aren't all they seem to be'

I sit in silence for a second, my mind keeps going back to my parents.

'Anthem, why do they hate me so much?'

'They had you for one reason, to make them more popular among the higher class families in their businesses'

'Yikes, Have they always treated me this way?'

'Indeed, humans are ignorant' It said with a simple tone.

'My body had a horrible life with a family like that'

'Well, fuck them! I'm a college student, not a child, I'm definitely going to be leaving as soon as I can.'

'How did you come to be in this dimension?' Anthem asked after a brief moment of silence

'I got my head crushed by an air conditioner' I think to it.

'HAHA what a noble way to die' It said with laughter.

'Yeah laugh it up' I say not amused.

'Was there an afterlife in your world?' Anthem asked after the laughter died down

'I didn't believe in one, though there is obviously after my death'

'I must have been in that void for an eternity'

'A box appeared before me after who knows how long telling me I'd be reincarnated in a show I watched as a teenager'

'Wait, a show?'

'Yeah it was called Highschool DxD, it featured Issei Hyoudou, the wielder of the Boosted Gear as the main character'

'Very interesting, Do you know any future events that will happen?'

'Alot, it's going to happen in this town as well'

I sat there and told it everything I knew, until my eyes grew tired. I slowly close my eyes, drifting off to sleep, thinking of the events that are about to play out.

Thanks for reading. This will be a Harem fic, but only with a couple, 3 at most. Give some suggestions and I'll think about them
