Chapter 1

The Fiendish Godslayer rewrite. I hope you enjoy it!

"Sometimes you have to confront your demons and sometimes even let them loose to find a place where you can gain some understanding genuinely."-Peter Mullan

Unknown Location

Our story begins with Issei's dead body shown lying on the ground in a pool of its blood. Suddenly, the body was surrounded by a crimson-red colored aura until it changed to a purple-colored one soon after. Both his clothes and body were healed and repaired as all the blood vanished. After the body recovered, his eyes opened, revealing neon green instead of his ordinarily brown eyes.

Issei slowly picked himself back up, shaking his head of any dizziness. He rubbed his eyes with his left hand, which was covered in green markings…wait.

"Huh? What the hell!?"

Issei had woken up to see that he was now in a different place, unlike Kuoh Town, as he saw a barren wasteland with many destroyed buildings and large stones in the sandy area. Issei grunted as he slowly got up and saw a broken mirror near him. He looked to see his new facial features to only freak out at them because of the unique appearance that he was seeing right now.

He looked down to see that his left hand had green markings covering the top of his fingers and nails. At the center of his backhand is what he assumed to be a four-leaf clover. And since his sleeves were rolled up, he saw that the markings extended down his forearm and stopped halfway toward the elbow.

"Calm down, boy. This is just a part of our contract." Issei looked at him and asked. "What? Hang on. Who are you? What are you ?" Issei asked as the man approached Issei's face before tapping his forehead with a finger.

"My name is Dagda, and as for what I am, in simple terms, a literal Demon. I was the one who was sealed inside that Magatama. I was sealed there to assist the next generation. Unfortunately, there was only one of these in your world. As for our current predicament, we are in my home. The Demon World. The law of this world is gone since the war that happened here many years ago left this version of Tokyo destroyed and in ruin."

Dagda said as Issei felt pity for the demon before his mind registered something crucial that he said. "Wait a minute. This is Tokyo?! How? I remember Tokyo still standing, so how is Tokyo gone?" Issei asked as he freaked out until Dagda smacked the top of his head before explaining.

"I said this version of Tokyo was destroyed. Not your world's version of Tokyo. The Demon, known as Lucifer, attacked God and his army to try and rule this world, but unfortunately, the battle ended with so much death and destruction. Humanity was gone, but the Demons now wandered this world. I'm not sure how we will return to your world, but it's best we find a better place to hide. Your body still hasn't fully recovered from your death and transformation. The closest town nearby is Tamachi. You should be able to avoid trouble if you stick to the shadows." Dagda said as he left Issei alone before the DemiFiend grumbled in annoyance as he struggled to stand up before walking out from his resting place and continuing following the directions he was given from Dagda.

"Hey, mind if I ask you some questions, Dagda?" Issei asked as he continued walking before Dagda accepted this as nodded in reply.

"You wanted to ask me how you're here in the Demon World and your new appearance?" Dagda asked. Issei was surprised he was found out until he nodded in reply as Dagda sighed in hesitation. "Well, the thing is that you died. A Fallen killed you in cold blood after you went on a date with her. You may not remember the event, but give it time, and your memory will return soon. The main thing is that you died from her since she was manipulating you because of a power you had within you, but now that your human side is dead, you lost that power. I was in your pocket at the time, so I was able to covert your body to become a DemiFiends." Dagda explained while Issei was shocked as he continued walking along the path until his mind began to show some images he recognized as he saw the black-haired woman.

"R-Raynare? She's the one who killed me, correct?" Issei asked as Dagda nodded in reply. The DemiFiend continued to walk across the land before he looked up to see that the sky was covered in clouds with hints of sunlight piercing through until he saw a woman with white wins fall from the sky as she was struggling to hold off a pack of deadly mini devils that wielded pitchforks.

"Ah! Leave me alone, you disgusting Demons!" The Angel shouted as she tried to pierce them with her spear but failed until the Demons began to pile on top of her and tear her clothes while a few others cackled at the Angel before readying their spears.

Just as one was about to touch her breasts, a rock flew through the air and hit their head. This made the Daemon turn around and eye Issei as he chuckled another stone at the Demon's eye, which worked as it made his eye bleed in pain. While the minor imp-like demon was trying to heal its eye, the others charged at him hoping to kill Issei, making Issei freak out as he began to run from them.

"Oh, Shit!"

Issei was running away from the Daemons as he dodged their spears before throwing some of them back to scare them away. Still, the number of Daemons continued to increase as Issei slowly found himself surrounded by the Demons until they stabbed him after they managed to keep his armored left arm away.

The one with the injured eye glared disdainfully at Issei as it was ready to kill him until a tall figure with razor-sharp claws for nails sliced him. She wore long black pants while her chest was covered in white fur, as well as her arms. Her tail was pure white as well. Her eyes were amber like a cat's, along with her long brown hair and strange mask around her mouth. The other Daemons were frightened by the newcomer until a blue blade sliced through them. Issei's eyes widened to see a tall blue-haired person that had a blue edge in their hand. They then turned around to see Issei's body before she looked concerned as Issei's eyes started to close. He tried to keep them open but couldn't even as the two women were calling out to him.

The only comfort he had was Dagda speaking to him.

"Take it easy, kid. You need to rest."

Issei grumbled as he woke up to see that he was in an abandoned building until he saw the cat-like woman walk in with some bottled water before gasping lightly at Issei.

"Oh! Thank goodness you are awake. I was worried you wouldn't wake up for the next hour. How are you feeling? Any better? You got hurt pretty badly by those Daemons, but luckily we got there in time to save you and Angel. She wanted to thank you, so she patched you up as best as she could, but before you can see her, I have to ask." The cat said as she narrowed her eyes and asked in a severe tone. "Who are you?"

Issei struggled to sit up but succeeded as he spoke to the Catgirl. "My name is Issei Hyoudou. I'm a DemiFiend and the Godslayer of Dagda."

The cat's eyes widened as she sniffed his body before gasping lightly.

"So that's why your scent was different yet similar to ours. You are a Demon, and yet you are still human at the same time. Interesting. Boss would want to meet with you. For now, it's best you rest and heals." The cat said before giving Issei food before the Godslayer called out to her.

"Wait! Uh, how long has it been in the Human World? My world." Issei asked as the cat turned around and replied. "Oh? Do you still have a family? Well, it's only been about a few seconds out there. Time here is different. One day here is an hour back in the Living World. I assume you do know how to return home, correct?" She asked as Issei chuckled nervously until the cat sighed at the DemiFiend before explaining.

"It's rather simple. All you have to do is hold out your hand and imagine a portal appearing in front of you and give the portal coordinates to where you want it to take you. Remember that you still need to have magic and some concentration to properly use it though I don't recommend doing it right now. You are weak and need to rest. Oh, and my name is Neko. Nekomata." Neko said as she left him alone while he ate his meal.

"Has it only been a few seconds back home?" Issei pondered as he heard the door open to see the blue-haired woman again as she walked towards him steadily before stopping at his bed.

"Welcome to the Demon World. I am Nahobino. Protector of the Human World. State your name and allegiance to me before I sever your head." She said as the sword was summoned from her hand while Issei freaked out a bit.

"I-I-Issei Hyoudou. Uh, I'm a DemiFiend and Dagda's Godslayer. What's your name?" Issei asked as Nahobino narrowed her eyes at him before putting her blade away as she then put a hand on his beard and felt that Issei did have a Magatama within him.

'Interesting. Perhaps he can help us deal with that stupid monster.' She pondered until Issei spoke to her.

"I'm sorry for coming here unannounced, but I didn't have a choice. You see, I was dying and-"

"Your past doesn't interest me in the slightest bit. Here there's only one rule. Survive. So I will teach you so you can learn how to use your powers."

She said before Issei's gauntlet appeared. Dagda looked at the Nahobino before adopting a surprised look on his face. "A Nahobino? I'm surprised there's one still around. I thought that after the war, your people were extinct." He said as Nahobino was surprised by his explanation before looking at Dagda and asking.

"You seem to be more intelligent than this boy. Can you please explain to me how he can use his power?" She asked as Dagda knew it was coming and explained.

"He needs Magatama's to become stronger, but from what I can tell, they are no longer around, which means that he needs to consume the essences of Demons not just to gain their abilities but their powers. I know I'm asking a lot from you but help my partner. He's gone through a… life-changing experience due to the Fallen of his world." Dagda explained as Nahobino looked at Issei before sighing to herself.

"I'll help him. On one condition, he helps me with taking down the monster of Tokyo Tower. It's been rampaging for months now, and the problem is that all of the demons in the area are scared of it. It spews fire from its many heads and has venomous blood. I've been trying to kill it but have had no luck, so with you here; I may have a fighting chance. The best way to combat demons is, like Dagda said. By absorbing their essence and getting demons to join you. Help me, and I'll help you get home. Deal?" The Nahobino asked as Issei looked at her hand before his mind showed Raynare's, but he shook it off until he grabbed it.

"I accept the terms and conditions. All I ask is that you help me out." Issei said as Nahobino nodded in reply.

"Of course. You already have two demons in your roster, so that's a good start."

Issei's eyes widened. "Eh? Do I? W-wait, what do you mean by 'my roster?"

Nahobino looked at him and explained. "Your roster is your collection of Demons that join you. You already have two of them. Remember that Angel you saved? Well, some weird gauntlet appeared on your left arm and absorbed her into it, so now she's a part of you. That Daemon whose eye you took out respected you despite being weak, decided to join you as well. I guess that Dagda is responsible for that, yes?" Nahobino asked as Dagda nodded and explained. "You see, the gauntlet allows the Demons to be part of your team so you can call upon them for support, defense, or offense. Each demon has unique strengths and weaknesses, so you should be wary of them. Now for you to gain power, you have to absorb the essence of demons; unfortunately, it's a double-edged sword since you gain power and that demon's abilities, but the problem is that you also gain their weaknesses."

Issei sighed lightly before he nodded. "Okay, how do I bring the Angel and the Daemon out?"

"Just call out their names," Dagda said as Issei summoned the Gauntlet and looked at the writing before saying the name. "Angel," Issei said as a tall blond-haired woman came out, and Issei nearly had a nosebleed as he saw her body with her clothes barely covering anything. The Angel smiled at Issei before introducing herself.

"Greetings, Issei Hyoudou. I am Angel. I'm glad to work with you, and thank you for saving me. Let us purge the chaos of this world together." Angel said as Angel's appearance still caught Issei off guard, but she noticed that her blindfold was red instead while her 'clothes' were more appropriate as they covered her bust and such while the chain was somehow attached to his left hand.

Issei's mind started to drift back to Yuuma before he swiftly shook his head and let out a sigh. "...Daemon."

The small Daemon appeared, and it seemed to have a different appearance since it had some reptilian scales and a dragon tail instead, while its injured eye was now a dragon eye. Issei was surprised by this as the Demon landed on his shoulder before showing him his pitchfork.

"I shall stab anyone you deem an enemy! Heheheh." The minor demon said as Nahobino was impressed by these changes in the demons before Nekomata approached them.

"Hey, boss! Is the new guy staying? If so, I think he'll be able to help us recruit some more allies." Nekomata said as she eyed the Angel and was surprised by the new appearance.

"Wow. Nice bondage attire. You angels must love being dominated, huh?"

Angel looked away from Nekomata with a light blush. "That's not true..."

Nekomata scoffed at the rebuttal as she replied. "Oh really? So if that's the case, what's with the bondage outfit? Aren't you angels supposed to be 'pure' and 'holy?' Unless your real perverts who love to ruffle feathers with each other in the sack? How naughty of you." Nekomata said as Angel blushed so hard that she became a tomato and went back into the gauntlet before Nekomata waltzed over to Issei and laid on his lap before teasingly licking his nose.

"Mind if this cute kitty joins you-Nya?"

Issei's eyes widened as he blushed lightly. "A-are you asking to join my roster?"

Nahobino sighed heavily. "Nekomata, have you forgotten that you're already a part of my roster? And it's not like I trade you with Issei Hyoudou."

Nekomata rolled her eyes. "Then just remove me from your roster so that I can join Issei's."

Nahobino was surprised by this before Nekomata pulled her aside and explained her reasons. "Look, it's obvious that he's been through a lot and needs emotional help, and we both know that masochistic Angel and that Daemon can't offer much, so let me join him, and I can make sure he doesn't get all depressive and such. Look, with him around, we'll have a good chance to kill the Hydra, and after we send him back, we'll never see him again. Problem solved."

Little did Nekomata and Nahobino know that Daemon had been listening and narrowing his eyes. 'It seems I need to keep an eye on those two. I should also bring up the Boss's problems with Angel...'

After the two returned to Issei, Nahobino let Nekomata join Issei's team while Daemon kept an eye on the cat as she reappeared with a new form since her fur now had red tints at the end while her claws seemed sharper than before.

"Nekomata is here to serve. Treat me well, master-nya." Nekomata said as she licked his cheek playfully before she cuddled against his body, making Issei blush at the close contact while a sure Angel was envious of the cat. 'Stupid vixen. I'll make sure you keep your dirty claws off, my master.'

Nahobino nodded before turning to Issei. "Now, I'm afraid the five of us won't be enough to take on the Hydra. However, I know plenty of potential allies that could help us eliminate the Hydra."

She pulled out a whiteboard before writing down some names. "There are demons who have the potential to do significant damage to Hydra due to it being weak to ice and holy magic. I've located these demons to help us take down the Hydra, possibly. First is Asparas. She's a kind and gentle spirit while being a good member to have as support and minor ice attacks. She's a rival of the Spirit of Lust, Leanan Sidhe. She's a deadly demon in charming her opponents and dark magic, which makes her an excellent counter to Hydra's Poison. There are powerful mermaids and another group of Daemons that may be useful to distract the heads, but they are stubborn demons to call upon. There are a couple of Azumi that also took control of an enchanted Hot Spring that they cursed, which is problematic since that spring is meant to be used for all demons to heal themselves. There is a demon who can remove the curse, but we've been unable to locate her. So here's the plan. For the first two or three days, I'll help you learn how to absorb a Demons essence, and after those first three days, you'll be given a mission to recruit one of these demons. Any questions?"

Issei nodded. "You claim that Asparas and Leanan Sidhe are rivals. What makes you think we can get them to work together? Furthermore, who is the last Demon you can't seem to find?" Issei asked with a serious face but a bored look in his eyes.

Nahobino sighed as she explained. "While it's true that Asparas and Leanan Sidhe don't get along very well, they do have one thing in common. They want what's best for Demonkind. They both use their charm to seduce Demons at first but help them become stronger. One thinks numbers equal strength, while the other believes power is what's most important. I believe you can get them to work together. Leanan is a Succubus-like demon, so she'll be more problematic than Asparas. As for the last demon, her name is Anahita. She's not exactly fond of humans or DemiFiends and hardly got along with my people. She's kind, don't get me wrong but has trouble understanding….well, people."

Issei nodded at this information before he asked. "Is there a reason Anahita dislikes humans and Demi-Fiends?"

Nahobino nodded as she replied to his question. "Yes, and the answer comes in one word. That being Lust, specifically the Lust of Man."

Issei gulped audibly as Nahobino patted his back. "Don't worry. The last time she was mad at a human man, she turned him into a human popsicle and gave him literal blue balls. Honestly, that's her being lenient on them; otherwise, she would've left them to drown or frozen them solid forever."

Issei turned comically white while Dagda burst out laughing. "HAHAHAHAHA! Ah, man, good to hear that the Goddess of Fertility hasn't changed!"

"Wait, you've met her before?" Issei asked as Dagda wiped a tear from his eyes before he replied. "Of course. I remember her rejecting many proposals or declarations of love from men and women who were infatuated with her. Unfortunately, they met an icy end one way or another. Ahahahaha!" Dagda said before laughing his ass off while Issei was nervous about meeting her.

"Uh…W-We don't n-need her help….right?" Issei asked hesitantly as Nahobino looked at him with the same blank look before nodding. "Nope. You'll get her if you can get the other two demons to work with us."

Issei sighed heavily in relief while Nekomata giggled at patted his head. "It's okay, Issei. We know you're hardly prepared to face a Goddess. Let's focus on getting Asparas and Leanan Sidhe to help us and potentially have them join your roster."

"Agreed. For now, I think Issei should go up against lower-level Demons to get a feel and absorb their essence to gain power. I detected many Oozes and Pretas nearby. I also sense some Pixie to join you but be wary of them since Pixie are mischievous brats." Dagda said as Issei considered this before looking at Nahobino before she sighed. "Okay, but I'll be watching you. I won't step in unless your life is in danger. Is that okay with you, Dagda? Issei?"

Issei nodded while Dagda scoffed. "Yeah, sure. But let me get something straight with you. Nahobino, my partner, will be perfectly fine. He's got Angel, Daemon, and Nekomata to help him out. By the time we're ready for the Hydra, Issei won't even need your assistance."

Nahobino could tell that Dagda was worried for Issei but had confidence in him to rise to the occasion.

"We shall see. For now, it's nighttime. Best we get some sleep. I'll take first watch." Nahobino said as she went to stand guard before looking back at Issei. "I'll wake you up for when it's your turn. Goodnight, for now, Issei Hyoudou." She said before leaving him as Issei looked concerned for his well-being this'll be interesting for the next few days until Dagda patted his head.

"Rest for now, Issei. I'll be here to make sure you are protected and safe." Dagda said as Issei thanked him before he fell asleep in Nekomata's lap, as she gently caressed his cheek with the nonsharp end before patting his head.

"It's hard to imagine that he's a demon. He looks so calm and defenseless, like a newborn child. Why would anyone want to kill someone who hasn't even heard of the supernatural? It doesn't make any sense."

Angel suddenly appeared with a light scowl. "Well, from what Dagda has mentioned, the young man was killed by a Fallen."

Nekomata was surprised by this new information as Nahobino looked at the Tokyo Tower before seeing Dagda appear next to her. "I know why you are here."

"Then I don't have to threaten you to keep him safe?" Dagda said as Nahobino turned around and nodded his way before Dagda decided to explain Issei's predicament and what happened to him back in the human world. Nahobino listened carefully as she absorbed the information as a sponge did to water until she nodded at the end of the story.

"The Supernatural World has become even more pathetic since the last time I saw them. And my partner asked me why I preferred this world to the other one. Here we can, at the very least, negotiate with them but those idiots back up here are even more ridiculous than I thought. I'll protect him, Dagda. This I swear on my life and title Nahobino." She said as Dagda thanked her before leaving her alone, which was the first day that the contract between a Godslayer and the last of the Nahobinos was born.

Meanwhile, sitting on a throne, a familiar demon smirked at this as he felt a unique presence in the Demon World. "Ah. So a new friend has come into my world. Let's see how this one will fare against Hydra." The Demon said as he sipped his wine before smiling at the idea of the new demon being strong.

"If so, then perhaps I'll have someone try to challenge me for the throne. Ahahaha! I look forward to seeing your new Demon. Ahahaha!"

The Next Day

Issei was fighting some Slimes who merely grumbled as they were reduced to essence until his Magatama activated and absorbed it.

Issei sighed heavily as he wiped the sweat from his brow. "I-I get that I was weak in the real world, but fucking hell, these Slime wannabes are exhausting." Dagda chuckled as he patted Issei on the shoulder. "Don't worry, kid, you'll get used to it."

Issei nodded in reply as he fought some more Oozes with his new physical attacks, which helped take them down a lot easier until he caught the eye of a Preta team of ten as Issei was annoyed by those guys.

"Those guys are like hyenas," Issei said as he charged at the small group of Pretas before throwing a few Agi rocks that he found earlier after dealing with the Slimes. The Pretas screamed in pain as they died until Issei absorbed their essence. Issei saw a strange Slime following him until Dagda laughed at his partner.

"I think this Ooze wants to accompany you. The Oozes are unstable demons and don't recall their true form or self, but with magic poured into them. It should help the Ooze recall its true form. Why not add it to your team? Plus, it seems to act smarter than the others you fought."

The Ooze grumbled a response as it was absorbed into the gauntlet until Dagda looked at the slime and nodded. "Yep. This one seems to be different from the others. It's smarter, which means it's probably a high demon unsuccessfully summoned by an amateur magician. It'll take a lot of magic to help this one regain its true self. Nice job on killing those annoyances." Dagda said as Issei thanked his partner for his words of encouragement until he sensed a strange presence near the city's edge.

"Hey, Dagda. Do you feel something? Like something is waiting for us?" Issei asked as Dagda sensed the odd presence before his eyes widened. "Uh oh. Those things are here. Issei. That odd energy your feel is in Mita. It's the work of a Chaos Staff. A weapon that fuses Demons into a terrifying beast that only obeys their master. Best we avoid them until your stronger."

Issei merely nodded and turned away from the city, only for him to stop upon seeing a small woman with wings in front of his face.

"Hi! Who are you? Are you the one that's been killing the low-level demons in this area?" The small woman asked as Issei took in that she had a long orange hair blue outfit that covered her chest and stomach, along with her legs and arms but revealed her ass and let her wings be free.

"Oh, right. My name is Pixie. Pleased to make your acquaintance." She said as Issei held out a finger for the small woman to shake as he introduced himself.

"My name is Issei Hyoudou. Mind if I ask about….that thing? In the next city?" Issei asked as Pixie was pale before she brought him away from that area and whispered to him.

"That's a monster that was made from a bunch of demons. It's insanely powerful, and it even taken some of my friends. My leader says it's a demon known as Indura. It's when multiple demons are mixed into a dangerous being. It was there just last week and blocked the way to the next city before you could reach the Tokyo Tower." Pixie said as she looked back at Issei and realized she'd been rambling. "Sorry. I've been trying to learn how to kill that thing, but I don't know how since there aren't many strong demons here."

Issei looked at Pixie for a few moments before he held out his gauntlet to the side. "Angel, Daemon, Nekomata, Slime."

He summoned the four demons, and to Pixie's surprise, Issei didn't try to fight her as he asked her a simple question. "Is there a way we can meet High Pixie? I can probably help with this monster problem, but I need help with my Ooze. Can you return it to its original form?"

Pixie fluttered over to Ooze and looked over it before nodding. "I think we can help, although High Pixie may have to call Titania for assistance. Returning an Ooze to its original form isn't exactly an easy task."

Issei thanked her as Pixie led him to a cave where a large group of Pixies was flying around while a few High Pixies spoke to a tall blond-haired woman with fairy wings on her back. She was wearing a green dress with gold lines around it. Pixie flew over to her and whispered into her ear until the woman looked at Issei and gestured for him to approach her throne before the woman introduced herself.

"I am the leader of the Pixies in this area. I am Titania, leader of the Pixies. She's telling me you are trying to help an Ooze regain its identity and true form?" Titania asked as Issei nodded and introduced the slime to her Titania looked down at the slime like creature and looked within its soul.

"It's a strong soul. A mighty demon. Such a shame this is what happened to it. To return an Ooze to its true form requires massive magic to return its original form, but its intelligence is a problem. If it goes wrong, then it'll regain its form, but it'll end up being a failure mentally. Are you sure you want to risk it?" Titania asked as she wanted to see what kind of person this boy was since she's never encountered a person like this before.

Issei looked over to his Ooze before kneeling down to its level, a solemn look on his face. "You heard what she said, right? This decision is not up to me. This is up to you. Do you want to return to normal, even knowing the risk of an error occurring?"

The Ooze looked at Issei for a moment before it nodded its squishy head. Issei looked at Titania before he replied. "Well. You heard him. In return, I want to know about this Demon blocking the city's exit. I'm trying to recruit demons to take down the Hydra. We could also use your help if you are interested, Lady Titania." Issei said as Titania pondered this proposal before looking at Issei and replying. "I will need time to consider this proposal. I shall help your Ooze and, in return, give you information on what we know about this Demon."

Issei nodded. "Thank you. I promise that I shall take this Demon out once you've given me this information. This I vow." Issei said seriously, but he also sounded bored.

Titania looked carefully at Issei after listening to his bored-sounding vow until her eyes widened. 'T-those eyes, and those markings... This boy... he's a Demi-Fiend!'

Titania looked at the Pixie that brought him here before whispering something into her ear until the small girl nodded and flew over to Issei's side. "She knows who you are—you are not the first DemiFiend to be created. We thought there wouldn't be one long after the war and the Nahobino clan were wiped out. Anyway, she understands you are grateful but was caught off guard by your appearance." Pixie said as Ooze slithered its way forward. Titania placed a hand on it before sending magic into the slime. The soul within it resonated with the magic as it slowly began to tear itself apart and retake a new shape and form. It began to resemble a human-like girl with blond hair and yellow eyes until a blue dress, and a white bow appeared on her being.

Issei and the other demons were shocked by this change of the weak Ooze into a girl-like human until the human turned around and looked at Issei confused before asking but one problem.

"You? Who…are…..you?" The girl asked as Pixie explained the situation.

"She's regained her true self, and so the memories from her Ooze form are a bit messed up, so she'll need some time to try and recollect herself until she recalls everything." Pixie explained as Issei looked at how the girl was dressed until his eyes widened as a sudden realization hit him. "Seriously? Alice from Alice in Wonderland exists, as well?"

The named Alice looked at Issei surprised before gasping at him. "Big Brother!" She yelled as she hugged Issei before cuddling his chest. Angel and Nekomata were surprised by how she addressed Issei. At the same time, Daemon and Dagda were amused by this predicament until Titania giggled at the girl before sitting back on her throne.

"Now that she's back to normal, I'll explain what that thing is. It's known as an Indura. A Chaos Staff created it. These staffs are magical weapons that were used to create mighty demons who were known for their power, but the problem is that the demons that are fused to make the Indura are a part of it which means that it's a permanent transformation. We thought that the Chaos Staffs were destroyed because Lucifer was disgusted by them, but it appears that one remained. It's not a creature that must be underestimated. It's just as dangerous as the Hydra but not as strong. Pixies were used as the main Demon, so it's weak to Darkness. Alice is a Dark Demon, so she should be able to help you deal with the Indura."

Issei merely nodded before he looked down at Alice, making her look up at him. 'This little cutie is a Dark Demon?'

Alice looked up at Issei and smiled innocently before asking him with a dark tone.

"Do you want to feel me? If you do then I'll kill you."

Issei's eyes widened with an extremely red face. "W-w-what did you just say?" 'SHE DID NOT IMPLY WHAT I THINK SHE WAS IMPLYING!'

Alice giggled at his expression before patting his face. "Don't worry, big brother. I won't kill you. I only kill those who want to harm big brother." She said innocently before her face became dark and malicious as she asked a question in an innocent tone. "So, who do you want me to kill, big brother?"

Issei was still surprised by what Alice had said before until he managed to calm himself down. "An Indura is attacking a part of the city I was training at. Do you think you can help me eliminate it, Alice-chan?"

Alice smiled innocently as she nodded before skipping out of the cave and heading to where the Indura was. Less than five minutes later, screams of bloody murder filled the air as a little girl was happily killing and crushing the Indura for her Big Brother.

"Oh, where are you going, Indura? Don't you want to play with me some more?"

Issei heard all this while Dagda whistled at the carnage next to Issei. "I almost forgot how scary Alice was. Isn't she the best sister a guy can ask for?"

Issei could only do the one thing that seemed wise in this situation and immediately fainted.

"Huh. You'd think he'd be used to blood by now. Oh well. Thank you, Titania. My partner would appreciate it if you joined our cause to fight against the Hydra. We want to free the demons from the Hydra's reign, so won't you fight with us?" Dagda asked as Titania looked at Issei and her Pixie clan before sighing. "May….May I have some time to think about this? It's…It's a lot to take in since-"

"I understand, Titania. I know you'll make the right decision." Dagda said as Alice came back with blood on her face. Daemon and Angel returned to the gauntlet with Dagda while Nekomata, who was carrying Issei, and Alice headed back to base. Pixie looked at the group leave before looking at Titania.

"Lady Titania. I want to join Issei Hyoduou's team."

Titania was stunned by what Pixie had just requested. "You... you wish to join the Demi-Fiend? Are you certain? You don't have to join the young man right away."

Pixie looked determined and nodded. "Yes. I know Issei is a DemiFiend, and while he has other demons, I can tell he needs support and healing." 'Plus, I can't tell her I want to ride his weapon while licking his essence.' Pixie said, except for the last part in her mind, as Titania looked at Pixie before sighing.

"Okay. You may join him. I'll send a message back to him about my decision by tomorrow. Now go, Pixie. I wish you all the luck I have that you may love and live by his side." Titania said as Pixie smiled and thanked her before Pixie flew away to join Issei.

At the base, Issei slowly began to wake up before he opened his eyes, seeing that Alice, Nekomata, and Nahobino were looking down at him.

"Are you okay, Big Brother? Do you need a hug to help you?" Alice said with a smile while Nekomata kept the small girl away from him.

"That's enough out of you, Alice. It best you leave your 'big brother' be for now. Nahobino needs to chat with him for a bit." Nekomata said that Nahobino was holding some staff, but the staff heads were deformed until she looked at him and spoke.

"So these are back, huh? I didn't expect to see an Indura for a long time since the war. I lost many friends and comrades due to them, but now that the Indura is gone, we can continue towards the next city: Shiba, before reaching Hamamatsucho and Shiba Park. That's where we'll be able to find the demons we spoke about last night. You've done well, so rest up." Nahobino said before getting you to leave him alone until she felt a hand grab her arm.

"C-Can you please stay? For just a little while until I fall asleep?" Issei asked in a frightened tone until Nahobino nodded and patted his head.

"There. There."

Nahobino was somewhat surprised to see Issei so scared, even though he had seemed so confident earlier. "You cannot blame the young man for his fear. You were the same way when we first met and when you first turned into a Nahobino." A voice behind Nahobino suddenly spoke.

She looked to see her old mentor speak to her until he put a hand on her shoulder and said. "Be there for him. Comfort him when he's scared or sad. Get to know the boy. He reminded me of you when you were in the same state he was in. I know. Deep down, you are still alive, Nahobino. Let him in and talk to him." The man said as Nahobino sat next to Issei in his bed and put his head on her lap before patting his head. "Is this satisfactory? I remember receiving this treatment when I was emotionally exhausted. Rest up and take it easy. I'll be here when you wake up." Nahobino said as she heard Issei's soft snores until Pixie flew down and saw the duo before smirking at her.

"Oh, ho. It looks like someone else wants to see his sword. And I don't mean the weapon itself."

Nahobino deadpanned at Pixie. "Oh, it's you again, that perverted Pixie I first met. Let me guess. You've decided to join Issei Hyoudou?"

Pixie smiled and nodded. "Of course. I'd like to. "

"No. Now buzz off, perverted bug." Nahobino interrupted as she made a shoo-shoo motion to get the perverted bug to leave Issei alone so he could rest.

Pixie gained a comical tick mark at the nickname before barking back at her. "Like I need your permission, Heartless Nahobino."

Nahobino flicked the tiny Pixie on the forehead as she yelled while falling out of the room. The woman smiled in relief as she ran a hand through his hair. "Rest easy now, Issei. You've done well for your first training day, so be prepared for the fun stuff tomorrow." Nahobino said as she smiled at the idea of training him.

The next day, Issei skidded back before falling onto his ass and coughed loudly. "Cough! H-Holy fuck... that kick was too much, N-Nahibino. cough cough!"

"Really? I was stretching my legs. Also, I can tell you are good at running and dodging, but fighting is what you don't specialize in. Attack me again." Nahobino said as she was training Issei in the art of combat before he could proceed into Shiba city.

"There will be more dangerous Demons there, so be prepared for anything and try to catch them off guard." Nahobino said as her eyes gleamed. "And most importantly, remember that you have allies to help you. Would you like to meet mine?"

Nahobino tapped her right arm and summoned four deadly demons that felt stronger than his own. "These are my Demons. Lamia who's excellent in the offense. Uriel who's excellent in defense and support. Yaksini is offensive and speedy. And finally, Manananggal. She's the Wild Card of my team."

Issei's eyes widened while his jaw comically dropped to the floor, while Dagda appeared behind him and let out an impressed whistle. "Wow. Uriel of the Seraphs, and one of the many Seductive Monsters of Greek mythology? You know, it's rumored that Lamia's are ancestors of Medusa since Echidna, the Mother of All Monsters, created them. ...I should see how she's doing one of these days."

Yaksini looked at Issei and sniffed him before shaking her head and pulling out her blades. "DemiFiend. You do not smell like a warrior. I shall train you to be a fighter, and if you die, then so be it. Hyah!"

She yelled as she tried to slice Issei. Still, he managed to dodge the attack, which was fortunate for him as Yaksini proceeded to attack him until Manananggal stopped Yaksini from skewering Issei before patting him on the head.

"Apologies for Yaksini. She's a warrior at heart, but we're here to assist you in training you and your abilities. The problem is that even though you've absorbed the essence of other demons, you still don't know how to use magic. Have you tried using magic until now?" The demon asked as Issei shook his head before Dagda appeared and explained that Issei's soul was now compatible with magic in the Demon World.

"If he still had that Sacred Gear of his, he wouldn't have been compatible with the Demon Worlds magic, but now that it's gone and he's now a pure DemiFiend, he can now use the magic of our world. His magic compatibility is based on his personality; strangely enough, he can use three different types of magic. Fire, Dark, and Force which means his main weaknesses are Lightning, Ice, and Holy Magic. It'll be problematic when he faces a Holy opponent, but if he absorbs the essence of demons that are compatible with those elements, then he can gain a strong resistance to it. Try using Agi. It's a weak Fire Spell that should be able to use." As Issei pictured himself using the spell before it appeared in his mind.

He lifted his left hand and made a finger pistol before he shouted. "Agi!" Issei said as the fireball shot out of his fingers. The fireball flew towards Yaksini, but the Demon reflected it as she smirked at him.

"Not bad. Some more training and I think you can use more powerful magic. As you get stronger, Low-Level Demons won't be able to help you get stronger, which means you'll then have to hunt for bigger game." Dagda said as Issei nodded in reply before getting back into the fight as he now had a way to clash with Yaksini.

"Let's do this, Yaksini!" Issei shouted as the demon admired his spirit before charging at him. Nahobino smiled as she looked at Issei before whispering to herself.

"This might work out after all," Nahobino said as she sat on a boulder watching Issei and was curious how much stronger he would become.

Scene!

Now Issei won't have the Boosted Gear and is now a pure DemiFiend. Issei's magic and form represent his personality and Dagda's abilities. Nahobino, the MC of the game, will be Issei's partner in crime and assist him in learning how to embrace his new powers and such.

Lust = Dark

Determination = Fire

Temper = Force

Issei will have mostly female Demons but other types to assist him, like Bicorn and such.
