Chapter four: Man and Dragon
Okay, let me get this straight. You are not really Issei Hyoudou but a consciousness from another dimension entirely inhabiting his body with reality modifying powers that lets you interact with it as if it was a game basically giving you literally unlimited potential and a ridiculous growth rate even by normal standards. And if that isn't enough you have seen future events of this dimension and you are planning to get powerful enough to deal with all of them as they come while at the same time attempting to gather the biggest harem with the most beautiful and sexy girls you encounter in the process. Did I get all that right?
I nodded my head with a smirk. "Yeah that's basically the gist of it. Normally I wouldn't have revealed that much but you are inside my head technically speaking so you'd only need a glance to my memories and you'd find out so I want to nip that problem in the bud right now before it becomes an issue that would undoubtedly get me killed."
I see. And I you sure that Issei Hyoudou would've been a, and I quote, 'Admittedly very strong guy eventually but mentally a wimp that would freeze up at everything and would let everyone walk over him before he did something about it even if his hear was always in the right place'. He doesn't sound like a bad guy but if what you is true, and given the prove you've showed me I am very inclined to believe you, then I would've probably gone insane while dealing with him as my wielder and partner.
I nodded again. "That is right. While Issei became incredibly strong in the future a lot of things happened that could've been avoided if he had been more proactive and trained more. I admit that my ability is utterly broken and that even if I only am strong enough to fight one winged fallen angels and low-class reincarnated devils, you have to take into consideration that I am just a human and I have been in this world for less than a week. Imagine were I am going to be a year from now. Exciting, right?"
There was a significant pause before Ddraig responded.
I would go with terrifying, really. But I have to admit that your potential has its appeal seeing that you can become stronger than the current host of that prick Albion. This is an opportunity I cannot let go to waste and you are already strong so my pride will not be wounded by supporting you and besides it haven't been ten minutes and I am already involved in plots that could mean the end of existence. Might as well go with the flow and get used to all the insanity I feel coming before I end up depressed or something like that.
My smirk turned into a grin at that. "Excelent! Let's begin right now with what you can do to help me. Can you partially modify my body so specific parts resemble that of a dragon's? I know that dragons are resistant to magic while at the same time having a high affinity for it, especial raw magical energy and elemental magic, so I was thinking if it was possible to change some parts of my body to better harness that kind of magic."
Oh great. I have a smart nut job as a host. The joy. I ignored the jab even if I felt amused at the groan in Ddraig's gravelly voice. And yes. I can do that. I was even willing to offer you that option since you'll be needing a lot of power to comfortably deal with what is going to happen if who you tell me is going to be involved is actually going to be involved. Ugh. This is giving me a headache and I don't even have a body. Anyways, what were you thinking about?
"According to my visions you are better a channeling raw magical energy and fire magic so I was thinking about changing my skin for dragon scales to better use that, both to enhance physical combat and my own natural affinity to that element. It will also make me more durable. I would also like a dragon's sense of sight, smell and hearing because there is no such thing as over awareness and finally I'd like the lungs of a dragon because breathing fire and shooting energy blasts from my mouth is just cool." I would also allow me to use the cool intimidation tactic of letting smoke flow out of nose. I couldn't forget that.
That's surprisingly sensible and well thought out. I have to tell you that I also dabbled in Lightning Magic to diversify my arsenal and Wind magic to enhance my natural elemental magic so if we go with what you requested then you will also be able to use those elements easier. Again, I am surprised. I would've figured that you'd ask for the dick of a dragon seeing that you are planning on gathering a harem.
"In the process of gathering my harem since I just got my first girl today." I corrected him. "And can you really give me the dick of a dragon?" I wasn't excited at the premise but I was definitely intrigued.
Yeah. We dragons have a mix between a turtle's dick and a kangaroo's dick. I never got complains from any of my mates so it could work for you.
"I'll pass."
Oh, well. I literally felt him shrugging ethereal shoulders at that and I almost sweat dropped. Back to the important topic: I have to tell you that the process is going to hurt like a bitch and then some. The benefits, however, are going to be very worthy. I did this with me previous wielders and the only exchanged their arms and sometimes and eye or two and they always got incredible boosts physical and magical wise. And you want to exchange your skin, three of your senses and your lungs… I don't even know how strong you'll get when that happens.
A nod was his answer. "I figured that and it is precisely the reason while I am willing to go with this. If some pain in a controlled environment now is going to save from getting killed in the future then I can go with it even if I am not very fond of pain." I never thanked Gamer's Body enough for making any pain I felt non-permanent.
That's a good reasoning that I can agree with. So… are you ready?
I nodded my head. "Yeah. But there some other stuff we need to talk about first. For some reason I know I'm going to pass out and I don't want to waste any more time that I have to. I want to spend every waking time getting stronger somehow and seeing that I don't have to sleep because of how my mind and body works then that means I will always be improving. And that's a habit I don't want to even risk losing."
Very well. What is that other thing you want to talk about?
"Your manifestation of the Sacred Gear."
What it's wrong with it?
I heard the indignation a defensiveness in his voice and it only served to amuse me a lot but I just shrugged my shoulders. "To tell you the truth: Nothing. It's just a matter of personal preference and convenience. While the gauntlet is very awesome is also very bulky and will mess up my speed based fighting style. I was hoping that the appearance could be change to suit my needs."
Oh. I see. What did you have in mind?
"I know that you are a fan of cool looking this as much as the next guy so I was thinking about a pair of light armored boots, gloves and vest. The jewel can go in the center of the vest but I want to keep as much as an aerodynamic design as I can. You think that can be done?"
Hmmm… Can I put claws and talons?
"Of course."
I could feel the draconian grin on Ddraig's face and it also made me grin savagely. As cliché as this sounds I believe this is the start of a very beautiful friendship, partner.
"Likewise, Ddraig, likewise. Now. Begin the changing process. I am as ready as I ever will be. And don't hold back on the pain either. I have a skill that reduces the damage I get and it grows as I feel pain. This will most likely drain my DP and HP but as long as it doesn't kill me then I can deal with it. So whenever you are go ahead and make me half dragon."
Alright then. Don't hate me when you wake up of you pass out.
I shook my head. "Don't worry. I won't."
How bad it could be anyways? I doubted that it'll be worse than what happened to my original body when I got killed and…
I just jinxed it, didn't I?
Here I go.
I felt my skin melting as if I was inside a boiling pot, my eyes exploding while inside their sockets because someone shoved something into them from all directions, my lungs burning as if they were lacking air and were being filled with water instead, my ear drums rupturing as if there was a sudden and extreme change in atmospheric pressure and finally my nose burned with the worst scents known and not known to mankind before it was ripped off.
Before I passed out I saw a notification appearing.
Physical Endurance has reached Lvl Max! Congratulations!
-DxD: Gamer-
My eyes snapped open when I became aware of myself and I shot up to a sitting position on my bed. I glance to the upper part of my HUD, just below the mini map where I digital clock had appeared after my first quest involving time, and I saw that it was just before six in the morning. That probably meant that whenever I slept I will always sleep six hours since that was what the body needed to recharge. While eight hours was the amount recommended, six hours was the amount needed and a normal human could function with just four hours but since I wasn't a normal human by a long shot now then that didn't concern me.
What was of my concern, however, were the sheer amount of notifications that appeared before me. It was the biggest I had gotten in one go and it began to get overwhelming until Gamer's Mind calmed me down and I decided to look at them one by one.
So that is how it works.

"Holy motherfucking shit!"
Do you seriously have a hard on now? I get it that you are totally overpowered for your level right now but c'mon you can't just have a hard dick for something like this. Really, partner. That's just messed up.
I ignored Ddraig and willed my totally natural response to my excitement to go down for the moment and began to relish in the massive boost of power I could feel. Bringing up my arms I realized that my skin tone was noticeably different. While I previously had a very, very light tan now I looked like someone who practiced sports every day during the harsh sun. Thankfully my skin still looked like skin and you could only notice the scales if you looked really, really, really close.
I jumped off from by bed and walked towards the front of the mirror and smirked in success. Previously Issei's face ad been barely above average but now I was in the league of the likes of Yuto Kiba and Sirzerchs Lucifer and hat was thanks to the fact that my face was now narrow, with little to no baby fat and my previously brown eyes turned a vibrant green with slightly slit pupils.
Then I pulled off my shirt and smirked at the muscular body I now possessed. It reminded me a lot of Natsu's from Fairy Tail and I realized how ironic that was since the status that gave me this body was called "Humanoid Dragon" which was what Dragonslayers basically were, that and I was going to be recreating a lot of his and Laxus' spells along with creating my own for Wind. This also reminded me that I will probably be changing my fighting style again but I supposed that was normal since in games the same happened when you had a new character and it kept growing and acquiring skills that you substituted for others and such.
My HP went through the roof along with my HP R and it was because my status of Humanoid Dragon increased both my HP and my VIT, which affected my HP. And if that wasn't enough Physical Endurance reached max level, effectively negating eighty percent of the damage done to me. That was reassuring even if most guys and girls here could still kill me taking all that, my max HP and my defense skills that were always on.
Thankfully I was on the right path on correcting that.
"With this everything is going to be way easier. Thanks, Ddraig." I was planning on also becoming a Devil because the bonuses to my stats and my bars will be worthy and since I now have dragon skin and dragon eyes I will be very resistant to light magic or at the very least I won't have the deep weakness normal devils have to that nature of magic.
Meh, you're welcome. We can unlock the Boosted Gear now if you want.
I shook my head. "Not now. I need to go to school and deal with some stuff but after that I'm going to grind some more. I think that the events I saw in my visions are going to be happening a lot sooner than I expected so I have deal with as much as I can before everything goes to shit."
Alright, then. I'm going to take a nap now. Wake me up when its time.
"Sure, sure."
I waved him off and severed the mental connection and activated all the skills I had decided were always going to stay on no matter what except for Meditation, that couldn't be activated while in combat and I smiled in satisfaction at the powerful feeling of strength. Like I was now I should be able to deal with the lower tier of super natural beings without too much trouble… if I didn't underestimated them and played it smart… which was what I was going to do.
I nodded my head and made a fist in resolution before I moved towards the door so I could go to the bathroom and like in the typical Harem anime tropes that was when Hana decided to open the door instead of calling for me. I saw her clouded-with-lust eyes drink in my new figure before she shook her head to get rid of that train of thoughts and I cursed not knowing how to explain my new appearance.
It seemed, however, that there was no need for that. She grinned at me. "I see that working out has been giving you results, Ise-kun," she commented lightly but could still see the no so light desire deep in her eyes and her tone was just a tad deeper than the one she would normally use.
I smiled at her and flexed my biceps, laughing mentally as she flinched trying to contain her normal reaction to my actions. "You can say that, yes. I've been on it for a while but there's still some more time left before I reach my goal."
She hmmed at me before smiling toothily. "Well at least now I see how you managed to get a girl with your 'In-the-process-of-repairing-perverted-reputation'."
I grinned. "Is that jealousy I hear, kaa-chan?"
She snorted. "You wish, sochi. Now go get a shower and get ready while I make breakfast. You don't want to be late to school today."
I nodded at her nonchalantly. "Yeah, yeah."
She gave me another look before she walked away, her hips swaying even more than last night and I smirked. Forget about what I said last night. I'll be fucking Hana by next week. I couldn't thank the creators of this world enough for making it so perverted and for letting me plot to do with it as I pleased.

"Suck my cock like that, slut."
I leaned my head back into the concrete wall as Aika began to suck my dick harder thanks to the use of dirty language and demeaning words, which were actually a turn on for her. She was kneeling in front of me with my dick inside of the wet and warm vacuum she called a mouth as she pleased me orally. We were at the roof of Kuoh Academy during the break and she basically dragged me here the moment the bell rung.
My hand rested on her bobbing head as she used her knowledge to please my phallus and cockhead with her mouth, lips and tongue while her hand cupped and massaged my balls. She had been more energetic than yesterday and I think it was due to my new appearance. While my skin and face seemed to go over the conscious notice of everyone, even my mother, but my new musculature didn't. I think it was the typical game mechanics in which nobody questioned your appearance even if they noticed it on a subconscious level. If these were the results I was not going to complain.
"Fuck yeah! Keep doing that!"
She swirled her tongue around the head of my cock as she suctioned the part at the same time somehow and the feeling as almost overwhelming but I could control myself thanks to Gamer's Mind. Her left hand was twisting the skin on the base of my cock while her left hand still massaged my balls tenderly. This continued for almost a minute before she seemed to get tired of doing the same thing and she released my cock with a wet 'pop'.
She looked up at me with big, lust filled eyes as she smirked. Her left hand, which couldn't fully wrap around my cock much to my amusement and her delight, jacked me off slowly as her expression got more and more lustful. "Is master liking what this underserving slave whore is doing to his mighty cock?" She asked throatily and with my heightened sense of smell I detected an increase of horniness and flow of juices from her cunt.
I grinned down at her and she mewled in pleasure as I massaged her scalp. "Of course, pet. As a matter of fact I believe you deserve a reward for once," I said and she squealed in delight before she nuzzled my cock tenderly with her soft cheek before she kissed the head surprisingly in a chaste fashion as she rose to her feet.
She continued to jack my dick off as she locked eyes with me now standing up. "Are you going to use my cunt as your cock sleeve, master?"
My answer was to reach behind her and grab her by her perky and fleshy ass and bring her up and towards me. She stopped handling my cock as her arms wrapped around my neck and her incredible legs wrapped around my waist. My dick found her incredibly wet slit and she moaned in pleasure as she began to grind herself on me. It was a good thing I was not wearing pants at the moment since she would've get them wet and while I could deal with that, the smell was another thing entirely.
Even though it had not been modified my cock did get bigger after what Ddraig did and I was no sporting ten inches long monster that was almost as thick as my wrist. It was so big that Aika could literally sit on my dick, which she was doing, as she rubbed her cunt on my length. Her arms tightened around my neck and she shoved her mouth into mine and after our lips met our tongues began to dance with each other's.
A minute later Aika separated our mouths and she looked down at me with clouded eyes and a flushed face as she panted. Her hips were working erratically grinding her pussy on my cock and while it was incredible pleasurable for her I knew she wanted more. "Please, Ise-sama. Wreck my cunt with your mighty cock and ruin me for anyone else."
I gave her ass a squeeze and she groaned loudly as my finger sunk into the soft flesh of her derriere. "Remember, slut. If you keep doing good and pleasing me this will be your everyday reward," I told her before I pulled back my hips, supporting her entirely with my hands now and I aligned the head of my cock with the entrance of her pussy before I grinned at her and I shoved ten inches of hard man meat into her in one go.
She shrieked like a banshee as her pussy walls clamped around me in her orgasm but I covered her mouth with my own before the sound could travel very far. I didn't one to get discovered by a teacher after all. Aika's back arched and her big, uncovered tits pressed against my covered chest as she shuddered. She was already drooling and her eyes went cross eyed which filled me with pride.
I shifted her position so now her thighs rested in my forearms and before her high ended I began to move my hips, first slowly to just keep her cumming in an orgasm of medium strength before slowly building up the speed and strength of my thrusts. Aika could only let out muffled short squeals and shrieks as she held onto me limply as I basically used her to please myself while coincidentally giving her incredible pleasure at the same time.
This continued for ten minutes, ten minutes in which Aika never stopped having an orgasm. She was already hoarse and I deemed it safe to stop waging war with her tongue using my own and I leaned back to see her expression. She was surprisingly still conscious but she was close to going catatonic with pleasure overload. She had an ahegao expression on her flushed and sweaty face.
In my eyes this was art of the finest quality.
Soon the pleasure became too much and without prompting I emptied my load deep into Aika, recalling that she was protected so there wasn't any problem with me dumping my semen inside of her. Her orgasm intensified at this and her back arched even further as she shuddered in delight. Her walls constricted tightly around my dick, milking me exquisitely as I hissed in pleasure, shooting spurts of semen deep into her.
Soon enough our state of euphoria began to fade but I could tell Aika was still too weak on the knees so I held her up, her legs and arms wrapped around me and my dick still inside of her. She panted harshly as she looked at me with almost fanatical devotion and I chuckled. "I can say without doubt that having sex at school is more thrilling than doing it at a park or at your house."
She grinned saucily as she pressed her big chest further into my own and kissed me on the cheek. "Of course it is, Ise. The kinkier the situation is, the more rewarding is the sex. For example now we have the fear of getting caught in the throes of passion and that just drives us further into feeling pleasure and excitement," she preached sagely as she began to recover her breath from our ten minute long session of fucking.
I grinned down at her. "Oh? Then how is your plan going? The one about getting a harem of beautiful women to have kinky sex with, I mean." It was actually my plan but in the process of fucking utmost loyalty into her I made her believe it was her idea all along. You've gotta love psychological warfare.
The walls of her pussy tightened around my dick and we both moaned. She grinned as her blush became redder. "As good as it can go. Most girls have a sexual interest on you, obviously but most of them aren't selfless enough to share, much less perverted enough for the things I'm planning on doing to and with them and you. Surprisingly Murayama and Katase are the ones that are willing to share the sexual experience if it is as great as I say it is, which actually is greater than that," she grinned proudly at me.
The plan was simple. It was public knowledge that Aika and I went on a date yesterday and knowing our natures, even if I was changing, we were going to have sex regardless of anything. That fact alone made everyone curious and curious people asked questions. Aika had the answer to those questions since the norm double standards of society women can say whatever they want about their relationships, sexual or otherwise, to whomever they want without trouble while men become assholes if they do the same.
As wrong as that was it worked in my favor. I vehemently refused to say anything to Motohama and Matsuda when they had asked me about it in front of the class and with that I became an even more decent guy in the eyes of the girls. Aika however had been bragging nonstop on how I fucked her into unconsciousness after four hours without stopping. And whether you want to admit it or not, everyone is a pervert, the only thing that differs is how open they are about it.
The results? I was positive the every girl in the school wanted at least one night with me. And while I normally wouldn't object, I didn't one to fuck a random girl that had no importance or relevance whatsoever just to satisfy their curiosity. I had plans for any girl fortunate enough to get my interest or had a relevance to the plot of DxD. And while my main reason for wanting an harem was for the constant orgies that it would ensue, it will also be a symbol of power and power itself.
The "Plan" was going excellently. Miko and Mina already talked to me and they wanted to hang out again tomorrow. They had been blushing and looking at me with lust all the time so I was sure that we were going to have sex after we hung out. This also served to confirm that I was wrong about the beginning of canon in relation to the start of the school year (Which was never specified in the light novels) because it was general knowledge that things began to go to shit when good things start happening to the MC, which is me. Also I could feel the eyes of Sona's and Rias' peerage looking at me discreetly and not-so-discreetly. The only ones not ogling me were Saji, Kiba, Rias, Sona, Tsubaki and Koneko and I think those four girls were just good at hiding it until they figured me out.
Sometime next week Raynare is going to approach me and I will start fucking up the canon storyline and I could really wait. There were so many things, and girls, I wanted to do that the thought had me so excited that I wanted to get back to fucking Aika again.
I grinned down at her. "Excelent my dear. In no time at all we will be having daily orgies. I am already making good money, don't ask me how but I will tell you when the time is right, and soon enough we will be moving out of our current living conditions so we can have sex as often as we want." I began to languidly thrust in and out of her, our combined fluids from earlier keeping us lubricated.
Aika moaned throatily and shuddered in pleasure. She didn't say anything but I could see the approval in her eyes before her lips smashed into me. After we made out for a minute straight I pulled out of her, to her disappointment and confusion, before I set her on the floor and swirled her around until her upper body was pressed against the wall I had been previously reclining on. Her majestic plump and fleshy ass was bare and I spanked her hard, getting a squeal as her ass rippled and turned an angry red.
From her pussy leaked both semen and vaginal lubrication juices due to the previous cream pie I gave her but II paid no mind to that as I grabbed one of her pigtails with my right hand and her hip with my left hand. Not a moment later I shoved my dick deep inside of her and soon enough Aika became once again a moaning and shuddering mess as she began to experience orgasm after orgasm as I fucked her.
Break wasn't over for another fifteen minutes and I was going to make them count. Marital Arts was not going to train itself after all.

I grinned in delight at the windows. "I'm sorry Gasper but I'm keeping this for myself. I'll help you with your Sacred Gear and your own ability to manipulate darkness and shadows after we meet each other," I muttered in excitement as I looked at myself over. The cloak fit snugly around my muscular chest, wrapping around my upper body snuggly and it was loose on the lower body. The hood was pulled down at the moment but I knew that if I put it over my head it would cover my face entirely in darkness.
I can see the appeal in wearing a piece of garment like that. It suits your image of perverted-insane-and-astral-plane-travelling mastermind quite well.
I grinned at the compliment. "Thank you, Ddraig. Now, let's see just what I can do with shadows before activating the Boosted Gear."
Very well.
I slipped into the Zombie ID and not a minute later I began to hear the snarls, moans and shouts of flesh seeking undead. This time I didn't even feel an ounce of fear and I felt quite cheeky so I decided to have some fun. My eyebrows went up a little seeing zombies wearing military clothes walking with little to no troubles towards me instead of dragging their feet around. I hit them with Observe and was surprised at the new information.
Nazi Zombie (Walker). Lvl 16.
A soldier that in his live believed in the Nazi ideology and as payment for his sins he now walks the earth seeking to feast upon the flesh of the living. Tougher than a normal zombie due to its soldier back ground but still slow and without intelligence whatsoever. The head is its weak point.

MP: 100/100
STR: 50
VIT: 50
DEX: 15
INT: 0
WIS: 0
LUK: 0
Current emotions: None. But it's pretty hungry and you look like a fine meal.
There was a bit more of information on the walker but it was irrelevant. It seemed like every time I cleared an ID it will generate stronger enemies for me to beat. That was pretty useful since I'm sure these zombies, which I now realized where an exact replica of Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies, will give me more XP. Now enough to get twelve levels again but enough for another session of grinding and skill development. Which suited my needs just fine.
I grinned at the incoming horde, the glowing eyes of the zombies making for a rather intimidating sight. "Alright. All of them are at a lower level than me so... mmm… oh! There it is! Ugh. It feels like thirty unresponsive limbs. Let's get this over with." I took a deep breath and raised my hand towards the incoming zombies and locked eyes with them. "Halt!"
It took a second both the zombies stopped walking and now they stood there shuffling around and looking at me stupidly, bloodied drool leaking out of their mouths as they continued to snarl and moan. I scratched my head before shrugging my shoulders. "Kill yourselves."
Absolute cannibalistic carnage ensued. The group of thirty zombies began to tear at each other's fleshes with abandon and no regard of anything else. They ripped each other's limbs and heads. Took out chunks of decaying meat with powerful bites and so on until just one remained. It was missing an ear, an arm and a leg but it was munching on what looked like a kidney, snarling like a dog.
I saw that the zombies were not fading away in black mist and deduced that that certain effect took place when things were killed directly by me. That was good to know for future instances. But now I needed to get rid of the gory mess.
"Let's see how strong your flames are, Ddraig."
Be careful with them. You can get burned.
"I'll keep that in mind."
I brought my palm up and created a Rasengan before igniting it with Dragon Fire. There was a spark before the spiraling raw energy became a tightly focused inferno of golden, orange, red and white that shifted beautifully as it rested just above the palm of my hand. I grinned at the warm feeling and the notice of creating the skill Spiraling Fireball but with my MP R I could go further without issues.
I began to pump mana into the raging ball of fire and focused it on expanding while keeping its shape. The ball of dragon fire began to grow and grow until it was the size of a two floor house and I was holding it above my head. I had begun to drain some of my mana so I stopped feeding power into it since I wanted all me skills to be usable without wasting MP while at the same time keeping up all my buffs.
I recommend you retreat as soon as you use that.
I nodded in agreement before I hurled the fiery ball of death at the mangled forms of the zombies and without waiting for prompt I began to use flash step to get away from the epicenter while still facing towards where my attack will hit. I was two hundred meters away already when the ball of fire made contact with the street and the resulting explosion still threatened to reach me so I had to back off at least another hundred meters.
The heat was bearable since it was more warmth than heat thanks to my high affinity with fire. The attack generated an explosion of fire that expanded outwards in a diameter of six hundred meters in all directions, burning away everything on its path, including zombies. It took ten seconds for everything to die down and where once stood the defining parts of an urbanized segment of a city there was just a barren territory devoid of anything except for burned concrete and ashes.
It looked like the fallout of a nuclear attack, just without the radiation and exponentially smaller. My eyes widened at the incoming messages that notified me of the fact that I had just filled over a hundred Nazi Zombies, both Walkers and Runners, in that just attack. It was obvious that the skill had two effects. The initial explosion and then the burning AoE aspect of the skill. To sum it up: It was perfect. And very badass looking.
Your level goes up by one! Your level goes up by one! Your level goes up by one! Your level goes up by one! Your level goes up by one!
A new skill has been assimilated. What would you like to call it?
I hmmed in thought for a few seconds before shrugging and grinning. I guess I'll just pay homage to the most powerful fire mage I have ever seen in manga and anime. "Brilliant Flame of the Red Dragon." It was a good thing that I just needed to think about the techniques to use it. I turned inwards towards Ddraig with crossed arms. "So what do you think?"
It was… acceptable.
I heard the grudging respect in his voice and chuckled. "Alright, Alright. If more power is what you want…" I trailed off as I opened my profile and put fifty points into INT, bringing the base stat to one hundred. "Power is what you'll get."
The skill 'Mana Affinity' has become 'Awareness of Mana' by reaching 100 on INT!
The skill 'Medium Mana Capacity' has become 'High Mana Capacity' by reaching 100 on INT!
The skill 'Psychokinesis' has been granted by reaching 100 on INT!
The skill 'Eidetic Memory' has been granted by reaching 100 on INT!
The skill 'Perception' has been granted by reaching 100 on INT!
I began to laugh maniacally as incredible power and knowledge surged through me. This was perfect. If before I was prepared to deal with the first batch of enemies coming my way then now I was ready to deal with a lot of things to come. Thankfully, I wasn't complacent and I had plans to become the strongest being in DxD, comparable to that of Great Red and Ophis. My goal was to surpass those two.
The most terrifying fact is that with this ability of yours you can actually do that in relatively no time. I don't know whether to feel jealous of how strong you are going to be, pity the fools that are on your shit list or giddy for the same reasons. Shit. Now you are affecting me.
My grin was feral as I agreed with Ddraig's words. It was just a matter of time and encountering the right kind of enemies for me to grow strong enough to match those two entities. Thanks to my skills I was many times stronger than what my level suggested so the best course of action was to create more skills. With the amount of Mana I now had and the MP R that came with it I was more than set to do that and more.
"So, Ddraig. What do you say about preparing the introductory speech for the Red Dragon Emperor? It will involve lots of fire, sparks and wind to enhance the fire. You in?"
Do you even have to ask, partner. Of course I'm in! Can we manifest Boosted Gear now?
"Sure! Gimme!"
There was an ethereal red glow surrounding my arms up to my elbows, my legs up to my knees and around my chest and stomach as I felt pure draconic energy surging from within me and taking physical form in the real world. Soon enough the process ended and I was covered in my ideal version of the Boosted Gear. The metallic red vest for some reason appeared over the Midnight Cloak but it didn't look bad like that and the hood could still be put over my head. The vest was sleek and it had the emerald colored jewel just where the middle of my chest seemingly held by six claws that surged from the vest.
My arms were covered up to my elbows in a sleek, scaled and wickedly clawed gauntlets that had golden and emerald details at the edges of some scales and thankfully they weren't bulky at all, meaning that I barely felt their weights. I made two fists and the sound of two metal sticks hitting each other multiple times was heard. I looked down at my feet and my legs were covered up to the knee in boots that resembled greatly the gauntlets. Just like Ddraig said he would, he gave me four front clawed fingers and two wicked talons. I was sure it was going to take a while to get used to them but I know I'll manage.
A skill has been created through a special act! The skill "Boosted Gear" has been created.
Boosted Gear. Active. Lvl 1 [0.0%]. Also known as the Red Dragon Emperor's Gauntlet is a Sacred Gear listed as one of the thirteen Longinus, it has the spirit of the Welsh Dragon, Ddraig, residing within it. The Boosted Gear has the ability to "Boost" which doubles the user's physical and magical power every 10 seconds. Maintenance: 100 MP.
Annoucements:
Boost: Doubles the user's HP, MP, STR and DEX. This call is announced every 10 seconds until the user reaches his/her physical limit.
Explosion: Releases the Boosted Gear's stored power in a beam of raw magical power from the Jewel of the Welsh Dragon.
Reset: This announcement is called after all the Boosted Gear's stored power during Explosion is drained. Once called, the user cannot use Boost again until he releases another Explosion, so long as his body is not near its physical limits.
Burst: This announcement is called when the Boosted Gear's wielder reaches his/her physical limit. Once called, all of the user's increased powers are drained.
Transfer: Transfers increased power to other people or objects.
I was slightly disappointed, but no overly so since I had more sense than that, for not getting Balance Breaker and Juggernaut Drive right off the bat. For some reason I think that I'll need to reach level fifty on the Boosted Gear skill to get Balance breaker and then max it to get Juggernaut Drive. That was going to take a while but if I used Boosted Gear constantly while training I could get Balance Breaker by the time of the Young Devil's Gathering, just like Issei did in the Light Novels. I will try my best to get it before Kokabiel shows his war obsessed ass but that wasn't something I could be sure off.
I shook my head and smacked one armed and clawed fist into another, a metalling clang resounding through the empty streets of Kuoh that were soon going to be destroyed. "Let's go wild, Ddraig!"
The following encouraging and approving roar from the Red Dragon Emperor was something I wanted to be capable of doing in the future.

It took me murdering four hundred plus Nazi Zombies along with two Legion Nazi Zombies to get three more levels and develop the skills I wanted at the moment. It took me almost all night but I managed to do so and in the process I increased the level of everything except meditation since it couldn't be used in combat. My base physical stats went over forty five since I was constantly moving around using Shadow Travel and Flash Step without stopping.
Massive general improvement was not the only thing I got from the killing spree I just participated in. I had many, many Soul Gems now ready to be used when I got my hands on a healing skill and also I was now the proud owner of more than two hundred fifty thousand dollars. Never thought I would say this but thank you Nazi Zombies for the monetary contribution and aid. I promise I'll use it for good things… for me.
I now stood in the middle of a burned and blackened wasteland. I had destroyed Kuoh almost completely except for the really gigantic buildings. Everywhere I turned it was just smoke and ashes. This was what I needed to realize that I was more than ready for anything. If I could destroy eighty percent of a city as big as Kuoh in just one night then it meant that I could protect it from anyone stupid enough to attack it.
"How do you think I compare to devils right now, Ddraig?"
I would say that without the Boosted Gear you are on the top tier of Low Class Devils. Should you use Boosted Gear until your current limit you can easily match a High Class Devil. And of you are smart about how you fight then you can beat an Ultimate Class Devil before they decided to stop playing with you eradicate you from existence.
I nodded my head as the Boosted Gear dispersed in particles of red light. "I thought as much." I unequipped the Cloak of Deathly midnight, leaving me wearing my black jeans and white T-shirt, and one eyebrow went up when I still feel the connection to the shadows around me. It was very weak but it was still there. "That's interesting. And useful should I for some reason cannot equip the Cloak and am in need of use shadows."
Indeed. Also that Psychokinesis skill of yours is very useful. You can make hands out of mind power and with them use skill that require your hands as focus. With the Boosted Gear full power you can create an overwhelming barrage of attacks while you engage your opponents in close range at the same time.
I grinned. Telekinesis, or Psychokinesis whatever you wanted to call it, was the most versatile skill ever. I could do anything with it. Literally anything. It was a skill I will try my best to max it because very five levels the amount of force per MP I could generate increased by one. It was 1MP/1 pound of force at level one but when it reached level five it became 1MP/2 pounds of force. If I maxed it will probably become 100 pounds of force per MP and that was Franklin Richards level of insane.
I sighed as I used my Eidetic Memory to walk towards a location where I knew an alley had been before I burned everything. "I should go home before Hana realizes I am not inside the house. Even if she thinks I'm working out I'm normally home by this time. I have school today and after that I have that date with Miko and Mina, which I know is going to end in kinky sex. After that I'll continue to grind my skills. I should also grind ID: Create so I can fight stronger monsters when I am in need of a levelling spree."
That's a sensible plan. If that's all for now I'll take a mental nap. Wake me up if anything interesting related to battle or you making a fool of yourself happens. Otherwise don't.
"Lazy overgrown lizard."
You are just jealous I'm cooler than you.
"Give me a few more months and we'll see who is cooler."
You are on, puny human.

"Issei Hyoudou. Can we speak for a moment?"
The background chatter of teenage students ceased abruptly as I hear the request. It was the end of class and I was on my way to meet Miko and Mina for our date after a boring day of grinding non flashy but extremely useful skills when Sona Sitri approached me out of the blue. She was looking as hot as ever but there was something in her gaze that told me that whatever she wanted to speak with me was serious matter.
I nodded at her after a second. "Of course. Lead the way." She inclined her head and turned away and began walking. I ignored the jealous looks of everyone as I followed her. It was obvious what she wanted to talk me about and I was more surprised she hadn't approached me sooner. While I was trying to keep my activities secret from normal humans it was almost impossible to do so from super natural beings like devils.
While a little worried since I could see her level, which mean she was at least fifty levels above me, I was confident she wasn't going to harm me. I haven't detected any bloodlust from her and her emotions were more around intrigued and slightly aroused, which made me smirk. It seemed like I was right above her. She was interested in me, more now due to my exponential increases in power, but she was over being blatantly obvious about it. And if observe wasn't enough to tell me that then the subtle sway of her hips was enough to tell me that she wanted me to look and look I did.
A few minutes later we reached our destination and I wasn't surprised to see that it was the Student Council Room. She opened the door and slipped inside and followed her without hesitation. I rose an eyebrow when the Vice-President and Sona's Queen, Tsubaki, closed the door behind me before there was a noticeable shimmer of energy.
You have entered a sound proofing and energy cloaking barrier!
"Overkill much?"
There was an amused giggled that didn't come from Sona nor Tsubaki and turned my head lazily towards the alluring forms of Rias Gremory and Akeno Himejima, the redhead sitting on a leather couch and the dark haired seductress standing behind her with arms folded in front her, the biggest breast I have ever seen being subtly pushed forwards. The two of them smiled amusedly at me and I knew they were the source of the giggles.
Sona cleared her throat and I turned towards her with a raised eyebrow. She motioned towards the where Rias and Akeno where, specifically a chair in front of the couch. "Please take a seat, Issei-san. We don't wish to harm you, merely speak and come clean with you." She explained.
I shrugged my shoulders and nodded and made my way towards Rias and Akeno and smiled boyishly at them. "Good evening to both of you. How is it going?" I asked nonchalantly as I let my bag rest against the foot of the chair after I got comfortable on it.
Rias' smile widened, and what a beautiful smile it was, as she looked at me. "Hello to you too, Issei-san. I'm doing fairly well, thanks for asking. I would ask the same but I know for a fact that you have been having a really good time in the past week." She said with amusement before she giggled sultrily. Another beautiful thing about her.
Akeno gave me a saucy smile and looked at me with eyes just as lustful as Aika's. Well at least I know I'll be tapping the girl with the hottest body in DxD, even if she was into really kinky stuff that normally would've made me pause but this was Akeno so small sacrifices would be made. "Oh yes. Kiriyuu-san has been quite descriptive with what you have done to her. I wonder… fufufu."
Rias looked back at her Queen. "Akeno. Settle down." She admonished gently but I could see, and read it from the window created by Observe, that she was wondering and wanting the same thing Akeno did. Alright. Another hot girl for future sexy endeavors. I'm in.
Akeno inclined her head elegantly. "I apologize, Kaicho." She then turned towards me, now looking regal but still seductive. "Would you like some tea, Issei-san?"
I nodded at her. She supposedly brewed the best tea in the world and I have to see for myself if that is true. "Of course, Akeno-san. That'd be lovely." Akeno nodded and walked away to brew the tea and she was followed by Tsubaki, the both of them subtly swaying their hips for, I hoped, my viewing pleasure. Tsubaki was also interested in me but not to the extent of Rias and Akeno but more than Sona.
Sona took a seat next to Rias and she crossed one leg over the other and while I caught the movement and a flash of black lace my eyes never moved away from hers. I was rewarded with an approving smile as she subtly relaxed. Another test of character? Good thing I had more common sense than Issei then.
"I'm not going to beat around the bush and will be direct with you, Issei-san. Are you aware of the super natural world?" Asked Sona directly, crossing her lithe arms under her perky boost. Her eyes became slit with demonic power as she began to subtly express her presence on the room. Her message was clear: This is a serious matter so don't fuck around with me.
I wasn't about to do so I shrugged my shoulders. "I cannot say I know about it because what I know is that during the break I woke up with the ability to use this energy called mana. Also I have been growing in power almost every day in the past week."
Rias looked at me in deep interest now. "It is obvious you have a Sacred Gear, which are items with powerful abilities bestowed upon humans by the original God from the Bible, and that you awakened it when you began to grow in power so fast."
Sona nodded in agreement. "That much is obvious," she admitted before she leveled a hard stare on me. "The question is what kind of sacred gear makes you grow twenty times stronger, at least magically speaking, in less than seven days."
I smirked at her. "I don't know if it has to do anything with it but my 'Sacred Gear', as you so call it, was given to me by a red western dragon that called himself The Welsh Dragon and Red Dragon Emperor, Ddraig." I activated Boosted Gear and chuckled when their eyes widened to the size of dinner plates and I caught a similar expression from Akeno and Tsubaki as they looked at my armored vest, wicked gauntlets and boots with talons. "He called it Boosted Gear. He has also been teaching me a lot of stuff. Something about not wanting a weak wielder or something like that."
"Boosted Gear…" Rias muttered and she was now looking at me with open lust and hope. I knew for a fact that devils were beings driven by desire and were attracted to power. I possessed the Boosted Gear, a Sacred Gear that had only myself as the limit to how powerful I could be, and Rias saw in me a way to get what she desires, which is not to marry Riser Phenex. She knew she needed to power for that and I suddenly became her best bet.
"One of the Thirteen Longinus…" Sona's look was more lust and avarice than anything else. One of her ambitions was to be recognized as an accomplished High Class Devil with a powerful peerage to get out her sister's shadow. And like Rias, I became one of the possible opportunities to be exactly that. I knew that Sona had at the moment one Rook piece, one bishop piece and three Pawns.
I grinned in glee. "By your reactions then that must mean that this is one powerful Sacred Gear, right?" I asked in wonder as I began to make the show of inspecting the Boosted Gear in a new light. I already knew that this Sacred Gear had the potential to be the most powerful out of them all just because the gear itself didn't have a limit. While True Longinus is a one shot kill cheat, the damned thing has to hit you first, which made it the perfect weapon for a glass cannon fighter. The problem is that Cao Cao is not a glass canon fighter and the fucker is very, very skilled. And will have to fight him and kill him. The joy.
Rias calmed down after a few seconds when I dismissed Boosted Gear and there was barely concealed greed in green eyes. "It is one of the most powerful Sacred Gears, as a matter of fact, it is on the top tier of the Thirteen Longinus: Sacred Gears that are believed to be strong enough to kill gods."
Sano followed after her. "Indeed. And because it is so powerful you have gathered some unwanted attention." She said with some hesitance in her voice and that was enough for me to see through them. They wanted to offer their protection in exchange of the power of my Boosted Gear. Well not the Boosted Gear per see, because they just found out about it, but they probably wanted the power of someone who grew twenty times in strength in just a week.
I rose an eyebrow at her skeptically. "Unwanted attention?"
Rias nodded in agreement. "Yes. You see we are not humans, Issei-san. We are devils." Cue epic unfolding of black wings from every devil in the room, meaning, everyone else but me. "And Kuoh is our territory in the human world. But since we are at a tentative peace with the Angel Faction and the Fallen Angels Faction we must let them come and go under supervision to keep the peace. Recently you have been followed by a Fallen Angel that we don't know what she wants to do with you but I doubt is something you'd like."
I hmmed in thought. I haven't detected Raynare or anyone so she probably observed me from further away of the limits of my perception range. They, however, didn't need to know that. "So that was the reason I've been feeling like I am being followed everywhere." Both Rias and Sona twitched and I smirked. "I take it that you too also had people follow me around right?" I didn't know that but I think it was sensible to believe that likewise.
Sona fixed her glasses. "Yes. We have. I'm not going to say something cliché like it was for you our safety but that wouldn't be a lie either. We also were curious about your sudden growth but other than the fact that you are capable of concealing your presence completely for hours and now that you have the Boosted Gear, we don't know much about you. I suppose it would be the same for the Fallen Angel that has been following you around."
When Sona finished Akeno approached us with very nice smelling tea and she and Tsubaki passed us our cups. I took a whiff of the heavenly aroma, made better by my overdeveloped senses, before taking a sip. My tastes buds exploded pleasantly at the extremely good flavor and I calmly set the tea down before looking at the expectant Akeno. "Without a doubt the best tea I've ever had. I'm willing to do anything to have it every day." I said seriously.
Akeno smiled sultrily and my loins stirred. "That can be arranged, Issei-san."
Rias coughed to gain my attention and I turned towards her, absently noting Tsubaki standing behind Sona now. "We now that you aren't a fool Issei-san so we want to offer you protection from the Fallen Angels in case something happens. You live in my territory, you are aware of the supernatural and you have a Sacred Gear, one of the Thirteen Longinus notwithstanding, and as such you are my, our, responsibility. I just wanted to be upfront with you about it, that's all."
I took a sip from the wonderful tea and caught Sona nodding in agreement. "That's a very generous offer." I set the tea down and locked eyes with Rias. "And what would you want in exchange from your protection?"
Rias' eyes widened. "What? I don't-"
My chuckle stopped her and I shook my head. "Stop, Rias-san. You said it yourself. I'm not a fool. And I know for a fact that deals with devils involve something being exchanged. I know for sure that you are well intended and that you have my safety as your priority but… I saw the hope in your eyes when you realized that my Boosted Gear was one of the most powerful Sacred Gears in the world. So… what is it that you want from me?"
Rias eyes were wide before she looked down at her lap suddenly shy and nervous. "I don't want to talk about it at the moment." She said and I hear the slight despair in her voice. It amused me a little since she believed I was not going to help her because I was questioning her about it. Girls, men, I tell you. Always jumping to conclusions.
"Why are you so sad all of the sudden?" I saw the other girls beginning to glare at me and hurried to elaborate. "It's not like I'm not going to help you since it is obvious you need help if this is your reaction to being reminded of the problem. The moment you warned me about me being in danger was the moment you earned at least a favor with me, even if you haven't offered me protection. I just wanted to know about it in case it was something outrageous like devastating a city or something like that. Pleas, Rias-san, smile again. You look more beautiful when you do."
Rias looked up at me in surprise and she wasn't the only one. I shrugged at their looks. "I like to help people with their problems, even more when they are willing to look out for me like gals are doing. I don't have problem with helping as long as it is not something involving killing someone without reason."
Tsubaki rose an eyebrow. "Without reason?"
I nodded. "If there is a definite and unquestionable reason to end the life of a piece of shit that only contributes to the worsening of society I'm more than willing to do the deed myself, eagerness depending on the reason."
There was silence for a moment before Akeno spoke softly. "You've killed before."
I didn't know if killing something that was already dead that just came back to life but still mostly dead counted but I think it did. "I have, yes. And while I don't feel proud about it, I can sleep soundly knowing that the ones I've killed did messed up shit in their worthless lives." They nodded in understanding and I smiled at them. "So… devils, huh?"
Sona nodded. "Yes. Rias and I belong to two of the seventy two most prominent houses of the Underworld, called the 72 Pillars of the Underworld. Also we are Kings of our own peerages, a system for reincarnating humans into devils based on chess pieces. Our race took a lot of damage in the previous Great War and this way we can repopulate back."
I nodded in understanding even if I already knew that. "I get it. It would be sensible to think that you wanted to offer me protection in the form of me joining one of your peerages to deter the Fallen Angels from approaching me or harming me, right?"
Rias shook her head. "While that crossed our minds, and were going to offer you that option, it is ultimately your decision. It will be easier to protect you that way than, say, having to send people of our own to keep an eye on you twenty four seven. We are willing to do that but if you were a member of a peerage we can teleport directly to you in an instant should you be in danger." I could see she wanted me to join her peerage, and I will –The perks of being a devil are way too good to pass up and I doubt I'll suffer the same weakness since I was a dragon/human hybrid already.
"The problem is," Sona continued, "that we are not sure if that will be enough to stop the Fallen Angels from doing whatever they wanted to do with you. A situation like that could escalate quickly and be what triggers another war and that is something we just don't have the luxury to afford happening."
I shrugged my shoulders. "The solution is easy. I won't join any of your peerages." I saw the protest coming my way and I rose a hand to stop them. "I really appreciate your concern and I know it is genuine, and for that reason, and don't want to cause you the stress of possibly being the reason of the start of a new war. You did enough by warning me of what was happening and thanks to Ddraig I know I am capable of defending myself."
Rias pouted and that made me want to kiss her. "I really wanted to join my Peerage. I won the right from Sona in a chess match that lasted twelve hours."
I chuckled at the sour look in Sona's face and I shook my head. "I only said I'm not willing to join now because of what might happen. When I solve this issue and if you manage to convince me that being a devil is more worthwhile than be a human with draconic characteristics then I'm all for it. Ever since I discovered my powers I realized that I wanted to be strong enough to protect my ability to have fun. Selfish and childish, I know, but that, along with the safety of my mother, is what matters the most to me." A half-truth at best but I know it will work with them.
Sona nodded in understanding. "We devils are creatures of desire an ambition. If what you desire is to always be able to pass a good time without it being jeopardized and protect your family, I can respect that. If you join Rias' peerage you'll be technically her servant and while most devils do treat their peerage like slaves," I saw the four of them twitch in irritation and I was sure they were thinking about a certain Phoenix. Was Riser worse here than in the Light Novels? "Our families believe in that we need to treat our peerage members as if they were our own family. There would be some rules you'll have to follow and task you'll have to do as a devil but other than that you can do whatever you want."
Rias continued. "The pros surpass the 'cons' by a lot. As a devil you'll have a weakness to light, be it light magic, the day and holy artifacts. But other than that there isn't another thing necessarily bad when you become a devil: Lower inhibitions, a tougher body depending on the piece that is used to reincarnate you, increased stamina, increased power growth rate, night vision, the ability to fly and you already can use magic power so that will be just enhanced."
I chuckled in a slightly perverted manner as I gave the four of them a lustful look, drinking in their literally sinful bodies displayed in sexy school uniforms. "Alright. You had me in the lower inhibitions and increased stamina part. I'm in after I deal with the Fallen Angels myself so a war doesn't start." I chuckled as Rias, Sona and Tsubaki flushed red and squirmed in obvious arousal, knowing what I was implying with that. Akeno for her part licked her lips sensually before she winked saucily at me, that sexy minx. "That reminds me that I have a date with two lovely girls and it would be rude if I kept them waiting."
Sona was still blushing but she gave me a skeptical look. "I thought you were going to stop being perverted."
I shook my head as I stood up, grabbing my bag and settling it over my shoulders. "I said I was going to stop being blatant about it. There is no problem with being a pervert in private or in my mind. For example," I smirked cheekily at them. "I know what you four are think about me right now. I know that is probably more perverted than what I am thinking about you and I know that I don't mind one bit."
Their entire faces became red at the moment, even Akeno's, and I chuckled again. I shook my head and turned around and walked towards the door. The barrier shimmered down and grabbed the doorknob before turning towards them with what I hopped was a sensual smile. "As a matter of fact it makes me look forward to becoming a devil so we can all reap the benefits of that. Won't you agree?"
With that said I slipped out of the room. After the door closed I heard Akeno groaning in want before she whispered. "I'm so fucking him once he becomes a devil. I have dibs you three. You can have him after he ravishes me."
"I will be next!" Rias said.
"That's not fair, Rias! I want him too!" That was Sona.
"Akeno, would you mind sharing your dibs with me?" And that last one was Tsubaki.
I smirked and shoved my hands into my pockets.
I was the man.
I really wanted to include Issei's date with Mina Murayama and Miko Katase and the following threesome but I got excited and ended up writing 12k words before that. I promise that next chapter will include that, Hana finally given to her desires for who she believes is her son and the start of the canon timeline. I hope you liked what I did with the Boosted Gear and what are going to be Issei's/OC's main combat magic powers. At the moment Issei/OC is on par with Kiba and Koneko without using Boosted Gear and he can easily beat Rias and Sona if he uses Boosted Gear to its current limit.
Review, please! Love y'all.
The Badass Writer.
