Chapter 2

A/N: I would like some opinions for a God to give their falna to Issei and possible characters for his harem but not ones close to Bell cause the timeline will still be the same but just meets up with Issei from time to time. I also like to thank you for the fantastic feedback you have given me, as it encourages me to carry on.

This is an original story crossover. I do not own any rights to Highschool DXD or Danmachi but will use the characters and storyline. It will have a harem, but it is progressive and won't be a biggish harem.

Chapter 2: New Issei Hyoudou is born

During Venelana and Rosswiesse all of the ORC, including Irina was, teleported into the cell part of the Gremory Estate until their trial or talk with the family head and also remaining leaders that had been told none of them could use their powers or attributes due to being restraint and anti-magic placed on them, they all sat on the benches in their cells wondering what happened.

"Rias, what's happening to you? Why are we in here?" Asks Kiba wondering why they are all in jail without Issei and Rosswiesse.

"I don't know, Kiba, but it must be a misunderstanding. We must have been framed," Rias says, trying to act innocent, but Kiba notices a lie in her eyes, giving it away.

"I see. Well, if that's the case, hopefully, it sorted out soon, and we can get back into training as I heard a rumour about an international rating game where gods and other factions can enter", Kiba expresses, hoping to train with Issei.

"Oh, that's interesting to hear, and hopefully, we can get quite far once we sort this issue out here," Rias says, hoping to lie her way out of the mess before it unfolds and she loses everything.

While they all try to think about what will happen, Venelana comes out of her magic circle at the main entrance to the Gremory Estate and notices Grayfia waiting and bowing to her with her arrival.

"Welcome home, Venelana sama," Grayfia says as she bows.

"Grayfia, you know we are family and don't have to do that", Venelana says as he holds her head with her hand.

"Forgive me, Venalana sama, but I'm currently working and have to do so as a professional should," Grayfia says in her normal stoic tone.

"Very well, you win today, Grayfia. Has my daughter and her peerage arrived?" Venelana asks

"Yes, they are all in a holding cell waiting for your judgment and the remaining leaders," Grayfia says as they walk down the hall to the main lounge.

"Okay, good. In that case, can you please bring me Kiba and Gasper as I need to talk to them privately before the trial starts," Venelana said, giving her order to Grayfia.

"At once, Lady Gremory and I will bring them to you," Grayfia says as she bows and heads off to the cells.

As Grayfia disappears, Venelana goes into the lounge and sees her husband there looking at all the paperwork involving Rias and the rest of her peerage been up to, including the new people they have been seeing. She then sits down, joins him, looks through the paperwork, and sighs as she sees it.

"Dear, I can't believe this has happened. I just want to know why the poor boy was completely heartbroken and looked so betrayed by what they did to him," Venelana says as she looks at her husband with a frown.

"I know, from the look from these papers they been doing it from a week after he went into a coma, and also been neglecting their duties looking after the town it just lucky that Sona and her peerage was around cause if not who knows what could have happened," Zeoticus retorts at this outcome.

"So what is the plan? Cause I think she's not capable of running the territory at all now, plus, when news gets out about this, it will make the Gremory household look like a joke," Venelana says, just as angry.

"Well, the heir should go to Millicaus at least when he finds someone he can bring more kids to this household, and also I think she should be removed from her status and made a maid with the rest of her peerage members, but I think Akeno's dad will like to punish his daughter personally and I don't know about Irina's side, but I guess we find out at the trial," Zeoticus says deciding the cause of actions.

"Hmm, that sounds like an idea. Plus, I punish our daughter, and we can get Sona to remove the memories of the group, including their new boyfriends, as they would be a perfect punishment as well," Venelana said with her sadistic smirk.

Meanwhile, in the cells.

All of the ORC are waiting in the cells and thinking about this situation while the girls are starting to panic as they know they have been caught but don't know how bad.

Suddenly they heard footsteps coming, and they looked through the cells to see Grayfia looking for certain people.

"Grayfia, what's going on?" Rias asks in a demanding tone.

"You will find out when it's time, but meanwhile, Kiba-san and Gasper-san, you are to follow me at once, so guards open up their cells, please," Grayfia says in her stoic voice.

"Of course, Grayfia-sama", the Guards said in unison.

Once the guards opened up the cells for Kiba and Gasper, they bowed and followed Grayfia to head towards the location. Meanwhile, all the girls in the cells were worrying about what was happening and confused about why the boys had been singled out.

"Ano Grayfia-sama, may I ask where you are taking Gasper and me?" Kiba asked out of curiosity.

"I'm bringing you to Lord and Lady Gremory Kiba-san. They will explain once both are there, and please be honest in their questions, is all I would ask," Grayfia says in a serious but calm tone.

"Okay, we will answer to the best of our knowledge then," Kiba says honestly but also curious about what's happening.

As Kiba and Gasper followed Grayfia into the main lounge, they saw Lady and Lord Gremory. All three bowed when in front of them of Grayfia letting them know she had brought them.

"I have brought them, Lady Gremory," Grayfia said as she bowed and then walked off to prepare tea for them all.

"Thank you, Grayfia. Now Kiba and Gasper, do you know why the girls of the ORC have been distant and why you have not seen Issei?" Venelana asks the boys.

"Well, I noticed they been acting differently, but sadly, I wasn't able to see Issei that I kept getting lots of contracts, including Issei's, when he was in the hospital. Is Issei okay?" Kiba asks worriedly about his friend.

"I'll explain in abit Kiba. Gasper, what about you?" Venelana asks, now facing Gasper.

"Well, sadly, I have not been around much as been making sure Valarie was okay and catching her up on things. Sorry that I can't help in matters, Lady Gremory sama," Gasper said as he looked scared but tried to be brave.

"Ah, no worries, Gasper. I hope Valarie is doing better. Now I will tell you what has been happening, and afterwards,s I would like to know what you would like to do after, okay," Venelana says to the boys.

"Yes, Lady Gremory sama," Kiba/Gasper says while nervous.

As Lady Gremory explains all that had happened when Issei was recovering and also Lord Gremory pitching in whenever Venelana was done speaking a particular subject left both boys of Rias peerage in a disgusted look at what they have done and also sadness as they couldn't be there for Issei at the time, both boys now know what they like to do and hope that Lord and Lady Gremory had a plan to help them.

"Lady Gremory, both myself and Gasper want to stay loyal to you also. Issei, is there any way for us to stay in Kuoh? I know it is impossible to join Sona's Peerage as both knight and bishop pieces are taken on her side." Kiba says, hoping there's a way to stay there and help.

"Well, that's something I was going to ask you after finding out your answer. You noticed Rosswiesse wasn't with the rest of the group, right," Venelana says with a smirk.

"Yes, we did notice, but we thought that was because she was working at the school," Kiba says while tilting his head to the side.

"Ufufufufu, well, that's because she didn't betray Issei and also loved Issei a lot but wasn't brave enough to say it to him yet, but also we talked to Ajuka and asked to make her into a High-Class Devil to have her peerage and also wanted to see if you wanted to join her and stay at Kuoh to not only help her if duties but also help Sona out as she will have full control of Kuoh as terrority," Venelana says to give them a choice.

"Well, I will be honoured to help out Rossweisse and Sona, but how can we change kings as won't we need Rias to trade pieces?" Kiba asks, tilting his head to the side at the last question.

"I would also be happy to help especially if I can find m,y brother Issei," Gasper says while fidgeting.

"I'm glad to hear their answers and also to answer your question, Kiba, Ajuka can override it so it will be possible also power difference might be felt as you won't be under our power, but you be more enhanced by Rosswiesse's person magic," Venelana says to give them a heads up.

"Would they be that much of a difference?" Kiba asked, confused with what he had heard.

"Well, yes, while Rias has my family trait of power of destruction, anyone with her pieces can access it slightly with actually training and enough knowledge of it, but Rosswiesse's is more Norse magic which can be more powerful but can also be less powerful as they calculate their magic rather than imagining it like us devils," Venelana says to help ease the confused Kiba.

"Something tells me Issei will have full access to my family trait, considering he absorbed the power from his pieces before ejecting them," Venelana thought.

Meanwhile with Rosswiesse

Currently, Rosswiesse was with Ajuka getting her status updated to High Devil and receiving her pieces, but she also asked what house she likes to represent, which shocked her as she never thought she could choose the place she wanted to portray.

"So Rosswiesse, you're now a High Devil class with your piece that need to drop your blood on the king piece to activate them. Also need to know what house you like to represent as you still have Rias piece but will be switching it to a free rook piece but can allocate it with said house powers," Ajuka says while facing a stunned Rosswiesse.

"Erm, if possible, can I still be under Gremory's house ber Lady Venelana's power as I see her as family," Rosswiesse asks, which shocked Ajuka at first, but she smiled with that answer.

"That is possible. I have a drop of her blood somewhere but will have to mix it with yours to enable both, which will transfer to your pieces once done," Ajuka says as he turns around to look for the blood sample.

"Ah, here we go found it, but first I will just put abit of Venelana's blood into the rook piece and then convert it to a free piece, then add will mix your blood with Venelana's for the king piece, which will co-exist with the rook piece I will swap with Rias's rook piece. Also, reminder Venelana was originally a Bael, so you should get access to the P.O.D power but will have to train for it," Ajuka said as he explained what he was doing to Rosswiesse.

"I will train hard to understand this to know, and to know my luck, I probably understand it more than Rias herself did," Rosswiesse says as she has determination in her eyes.

"I like the look in your eyes there, Rosswieese. I'm sure you would make Venelana proud and Issei," Ajuka said with a teasing smirk.

"H-h-how would that make Issei proud" Rosswiesse stuttered, her cheeks turning bright red.

"Well, cause you to love him and want to help him in any way or form, and also with the way Venelana and Grayfia explained how he looked at the time he found out their betrayal to him was sad that I know you could help cheer him up" Ajuka explained but had a sad smile when talking about Issei.

"I never got the details of it. I know they all turned their backs on him when he recovered from that fight with the beast. I wonder where he is and how he is doing," Rosswiesse says with a hint of worry in her tone.

"Yeah was a bit of a shock to me too when they told me I had so much disappointment towards them. It's why I'm doing this. About Issei, the last update I got, he was training hard with his new dragon aura he unlocked cause of what happened but also, being a full dragon now will make him even stronger than before, so I can't wait to see how he's doing and hope he is here for the new rating game tournament we are holding soon," Ajuka said as he explained what will happen soon.

"Well, knowing Issei, he likes to train to ensure people are safe. That's one thing I love about him, he might be a pervert, but he has a heart of gold which is just masked unless you know him," Rosswiesse says while blushing at what she said.

"Very truly, I couldn't say it better myself, right let you go. Rook piece is ready, then we will sort the king piece out to create your evil pieces," Ajuka says while smiling.

"Okay, I'm ready," Rosswiesse says, nodding to start.

Ajuka starts using his magic to remove the old rook piece from Rosswiesse and then puts the new modified one in its place, which causes Rosswiesse to twitch with being introduced to a more potent, powerful piece. As Rosswiesse relaxes, she steadies herself before pricking her finger to let abit of blood go onto the king piece to create her evil pieces and watching them glow with her magic.

"Wow, you managed to hit the jackpot here, Rosswiesse. You managed to get three mutated pieces which are 2x bishops and queen pieces which are rare to achieve," Ajuka says with the biggest smile at what he has seen.

"Well, guess I will be hunting for potential members soon then, but I hope Gasper and Kiba will join me and help as I know I do my best to train them to the best of their quality," Rosswiesse says

"Well, good luck in that, Rosswiesse. If there are any problems, let me know. As for now, it's time to get back to my maou duties and do more work for the upcoming rating game competition," Ajuka says as he prepares his magic circle.

"No, thank you, Ajuka, and let you know if anything turns up," Rosswiesse says as she disappears into her magic circle.

Back to Issei

As Issei exits from the time field that Ophis, after training not only in his aura but other aspects, he also finds out that his aura is creation due to having a mix of both Great Red and Ophis and destruction due to absorbing the magic from the evil pieces.

"Well, we are back and have funny access to my aura now and understand it better, so now what to do now, huh Ddraig," Issei asks his partner after relaxing abit.

(" Yes, partner, to have the ability of creation and destruction is suitable for you as its like Ying and Yang as they say") Ddraig says proudly at his friend/brother as he thinks of it.

"Haha, it does, don't it, but with my creation, magic is using part of Great Reds powers due to him the Dragon of Dreams and Illusions, whilst the Destruction is a form of not only the evil pieces I absorbed but also fused with powers from Ophis infinite which is surprising in such way" Issei explains to his partner.

("Indeed partner and also mixing mine and Albion's power into the mix, your certainly a Dragon not to take likely no more") Ddraig says with so much pride you can imagen him smirking smugly.

"Well, you are my partner and brother, so I have to represent you in a better way than I did, but anyways I think it's time to head back home and get a bath and a haircut since my hair is long," Issei says as he smells an odour coming from himself.

("Well, not surprised with how long you trained in that time space, also partner, try and not let anyone know about your dragon powers just yet as we don't know what has gone off since you disappeared from the scene",) Ddraig says in his concern.

"True, I don't want to end up being used again. I also hope to see whoever cares about me and not talk about Motohama or Matsuda as I think they were just using me as a scapegoat," Issei says as he ponders about that.

("Well, that's new never thought you would say that about your perverted friends") Ddraig says, shocked by what he heard.

"Well, got to grow up sometime, and seeing how things ended up with me, it's time to reshape my imagen. I am also going to apologise to all the girls I hurt by doing them things," Issei says as he looks proud of what he's doing.

("Very noble of you, partner. I never thought to hear that") Ddraig says bit surprised.

"I know I'm just as shocked saying it, hahaha," Issei says as he laughs it off. "Well, time to get going and see what changed"

With that, Issei creates his teleport circle to notice how much it changed and smirks at the same time, knowing it's his own with a combination of Ddraigs dragongate and his own with black mixed in. With that, he disappears to make his way to his home in Kuoh.

Back in Kuoh

As the student council and Rosswiesse left Kuoh Academy to head to the Hyoudou residence as all of Rias peerage had been vacated apart from Rosswiesse due to becoming a High devil herself and now looking for her peerage, they all felt a strong presence enter Kuoh and was near or at the Hyoudou residence they all panicked and hurried to find out who it was.

"Quick, we need to find out who that power belongs to and hope they are not attacking the Hyoudou residence as we promised Issei to protect his parents", Sona orders her peerage.

"Right!" shouted everyone as they moved with haste to the location.

As they all got to the door and opened it, they were shocked to see the one person they didn't expect to see waving at them like he never had. As they saw this, they all tackled him in an unexpected hug.

"Issei!" they all shouted and hugged, tackling him to the ground.

"Uuff, ouch, hey guy,s easy on the tackle, haha, how's everyone been, and also I like to thank you guys for looking after my parents while I was gone," Issei says as he laughs on the floor after being tackled. "Also, I never thought I would get a hug from you guys, so want to inform me what's happened since I've been away training?"

"Well, Issei, everyone missed you, especially me. I know we never got to know each other personally as certain people. Still, I knew how caring you are, for things you missed not much apart from the ORC members being evicted from this, how and territory and waiting for judgement. Rosswiesse becoming a High Devil and receiving her pieces," Sona says as she pushes her glasses up to her nose.

"Wow, a lot happened then, and congrats, Rosswiesse. I knew you would become a king easily with your knowledge, so how come all the Student Council here,, or was it because you felt a strange aura?" Issei asks out of curiosity while assembling with others.

"Well, we were ordered to move into the residence as extra security for your family while you were training and other things", Sona explains as she sees nodding in understanding.

"Well, I'm thankful for that, so I let you guys get relaxed and then can ask me questions if you like afterwords," Issei says as he smiles.

As everyone left their rooms to get changed, Rosswiesse was the only one left behind who was twiddling with her fingers as she was preparing to ask Issei something that could backfire on her due to what had happened.

"Ano, Issei, I'm delighted your back, and thank you for congratulating me, but can I ask you something before I get changed?" Rosswiesse asks with hope.

"You're welcome, Rosswiesse and sure, I will be happy to listen," Issei says as he smiles at her.

"Well, I know others have hurt you badly but I always wanted to tell you something which I tried to have the courage to ask you, and I will understand if you turn me down but here goes, Issei. I like you a lot, and I wondered if we possibly go out with each other as boyfriend and girlfriend?" Rosswiesse asks, now closing her eyes, waiting for rejection.

"Wow, Rosswiesse, I will be honoured, but could we take it slow at first? As you know, I will be happy to have you as a girlfriend as I also like you a lot but found it hard to ask due to all the fights that were going off, as you know," Issei says, happy and also shocked.

"S-seriously, I'm so happy. Thank you, Issei, and by the way, please call me Rose, and I understand about going slow," Rosswiesse says, excited and jumping about.

"Hehe, ok, Rose, please take care of me also. If you need any help with anything, let me know," Issei says as he hugs her.

"Yes, and please take care of me as well. I'm going to get changed, so I will see you in abit and can have a good talk about your training", Rosswiesse says as she returns the hug before going upstairs.

("Well, that went good, don't you think, partner") Ddraig says as he smirks.

"Indeed, partner also was shocked about Rosswiesse asking me out, but I'm also glad maybe we can make her something with my creative powers sometimes as a gift," Issei thinks while answering Ddraig.

("Yes, maybe learn more about her and Asgard to give you ideas maybe but also something to help her boost her powers, maybe") Ddraigs says while thinking.

"Oh yeah, hmmm, maybe I can get some ideas from some games that I got," Issei thinks as he ponders.

("Please don't make anything stupid like you would when back in the day") Ddraig says as he deadpans in fear

"I won't. I'm not the same person as before. Hmm, wonder if any of the girls like to give me a haircut for a new look, maybe," Issei says to his partner.

As Issei was talking to Ddraig in his head, all the girls managed to meet up before heading downstairs to ask what he's been doing and why Rosswiesse was so happy as she was all giddy.

"Ok, spill it, Rosswiesse. I have never seen you this giddy before," Tsubaki asks bit curious too about what happened.

"Well, I finally managed to confess my feelings, and Issei accepted them even though asked to take it slow, which I can understand," Rosswiesse says while blushing and fidgeting.

"Woah, that's very bold of you, but I'm glad you finally confessed," Momo said as she giggled through it, knowing how shy Rosswiesse was.

"Indeed, but now I'm curious what kind of training Issei went through and hopefully can help me with an idea or two," Sona says in her usual calm, stoic tone.

"Thanks, girls and yeah, I'm also curious about his training also. He needs to catch up on his school work since he's been away," Rosswiesse says as she goes into her teacher mode at the end.

As the girls make their way to the stairs, they could hear Issei singing a song which shocked the group as they had never heard him sing before. They just stopped at the top of the stairs listening to him and admiring his voice. Even Sona was shocked at the development and stunned at how well he could sing.

A/N: Listen to Mori Calliope - Make Em Afraid To find out the song of choice, as writing the lyrics won't do justice at this point.

As Issei finished singing, he shouted to the girls they can come down now, laughing his head off.

"You can come down now, by the way, hehe," Issei says as he giggles. "How was my singing cause by the looks of your reactions, you never heard me sing before.

"I never knew you could sing like that", Sona said, trying to process this.

"You sounded awesome," Momo says, surprised by this but happy.

"Hehe, thanks, girls. Karaoke works a treat, I guess," Issei says while rubbing the back of his head. "So I'm guessing you like to know what I been up to since I was gone?"

"Please, I know you said training, but by the looks of it, looks more than that?" Sona asked while everyone nodded their heads in agreement.

"Well was mainly basic training first getting used to my dragon body and senses, then worked with my boosted gear to point it mastered as such, then I learned some bits from Ophis to fill me in on knowledge I lacked, then I worked on other bits and bobs" Issei explained what he has been up to.

"Wow, that's a lot. How did you manage to get all that done? It would have taken some people months or years to achieve that?" Rosswiesse asked out of curiosity.

"Good question Rose. Ophis managed to put a time barrier up for me, so I was able to train that much within a short time and did wonders, I must say," Issei said as he smiled.

Just as Issei was explaining what he's been doing, a magic circle appeared, and out came Grayfia, Venelana, Ajuka with, Kiba and Gasper Soon after they saw Issei, they were shocked at his new appearance and even Grayfia, and Venelana had slight blush come to their cheeks.

"Ah, Lord Ajuka, Lady Gremory and Grayfia nee-san, nice to see you and also nice to see you as well, Kiba and Gasper," Issei say as he bows in respect.

"Ufufufuf, nice to see your back, Issei and to look stronger than ever," Venelana says in a naughty mood.

"Ise, did you just call me nee-san?" Grayfia asked with an aura coming from her, making Issei sweat bullets.

"Erm, yes, I thought you would like it, honestly," Issei says, still sweating bullets.

Grayfia disappears in front of Issei, which causes him to panic. Then Grayfia suddenly brings him into a big hug squeezing him to death as being happy.

"Oh, I'm happy you said that. Now I got someone to spoil and tell off when done wrong," Grayfia says, still squeezing Issei to death.

"Nee-san can't breathe. Please let me go," Issei says as he struggles to breathe from the crushing hug.

Grayfia suddenly let's go and apologies for going overboard with the hugging.

"Sorry, Issei, I got too excited."

"It ok, nee-san, so what with the sudden coming over?" Issei asks, looking at Ajuka and Lady Gremory.

"Well, I'm here to help trade the pieces of Kiba and Gasper here into Rosswiesse peerage and also make sure they move in for extra protection for your parents when they are here," Ajuka says as he explains.

"Ah, cool, I'm glad you are helping Rosswiesse guys and remember you are still part of the Gremory family even if under a different master," Issei says with a big smile.

"We won't disappoint you, Issei, as you like our brother and will always support the family as a noble Knight," Kiba says as he smiles back.

"Exactly what Kiba said, big brother Issei," Gasper says while smiling.

"Well, not going to make you guys wait any longer, so your up, Rosswiesse," Issei says while kissing her on the cheek when she walks past.

A/N: Ok, going to end this chapter here as I will be thinking about what to do for Chapter 3 that's when he will visit the world of Danmachi but also learn about the world tournament so that he might gather allies there for his team. Also, guys, post who you like to see in his harem as Rosswiesse be the main girl, and also would like ideas for new moves for his dragon aura that he required.
