6 First fight

Bidding farewell to Irina was hard but Issei managed to pull through, after their departure, He passed the day training and getting ready for his first battle.

Monday came and it was time for school, while walking there Issei kept trying to sense his surroundings to find traces of stray devils or exorcists, the dull and boring classes are still shitty but without the cheerful and smiling irina it was harder to pull through for iseei, then he noticed something else, without her he's a loner as he never approached the other kids.

On the way home Issei felt a trace of demonic energy in the abandoned warehouse, but he felt something else, it was evil so he asked Ddraig "Partner, why do i keep feeling that this stray devil is pure malice?" "the stray devil is realising a lot of killing intent and malice he must be insane as he can't control it" Issei decided that tonight he will fight against the stray.

Issei went home and had dinner then went to his room, after 4 hours when he made sure his parents were asleep he left through the window without any sound.

Going through the street in dark night he felt his heart beating while doubting himself if he could really 'finish the job'. He arrived in front of the abandoned warehouse he erased his presence then crept through the shadows inside, while still hiding he could hear a disgusting sound he then used his 2 tomoe sharingan only to see a warped figure dismembering and eating a poor woman.

Issei couldn't take it he almost blew his cover trying to vomit what he had for dinner, but thanks to Ddraig comforting him mentally he would have been found out. Issei crept closer while monitoring the stray devil that lost his mind using the sharingan he managed to get close enough for his attack to not miss.

Issei quickly summoned the boosted gear "BOOST" which attracted the attention of the stray but it was late as Issei already charged a dragon shot which hit the stray directly, which caused a smokescreen around the stray.

"BOOST"

Issei started to relax only to see a hand coming closer but thanks to his sharingan he managed to dodge the punch, Issei sent his fists trying to hit his vital but he was slower even with his sharingan as his body couldn't keep up with the speed of the devil.

"BOOST"

Issei used his fire magic to create a smokescreen to blind his enemy, thankfully he managed to punch him to the face then injure his legs with his wind magic named 'Razor wind', but the strey still isn't down as he also used fire spells to bombard issei which he tried to dodge them but he wasn't fast enough

"BOOST"

Issei was injured but he could still move he quickly used another dragon shot to down the enemy

the stray still wasn't dead but he was lying down, Issei got closer only to hear Ddraig "Partner, you should quickly finish him off" Issei now was torn this stray devil looked like a human with bat wings and pointy ears and bloodshot eyes from losing his insanity but he was pulled from his inner musing only to see claws coming toward his neck trying to kill him.

"BOOST"

While sensing this danger it was like something was unlocked his sharingan was spinning furiously only to end up reaching the third stage but he couldn't completly dodge the claws coming toward him so he got cut in his chest leaving four deep cuts he backed away using his strongest fire magic sent a giant fire ball toward the now defensless stray devil only to burn him alive.

Issei could clearly see the burning figure screaming and shouting incomprehensible words only to for the charred corpse to fall like a puppet that lost it's string, Issei couldn't help but throw up, the silence inside the warehouse was like a reminder of he had done

He quickly burned the two corpses into ash and left the warehouse while castin basic healing on himself to close his wounds. Upon his return to the house he fell limply into the bed trying to come into terms with what his life has and will become.

That day he dreamed of a charred corpse.
