3rd pov

"WHY DID YOU HAVE A MAZE SHINO!!" issei yelled in desperation, he had been walking in the forest for 3 hours already, fighting small wood Wolf's and running from one of the weird monsters.

Issei looked down at the gauntlet covering his left hand, it had not reacted to anything, other than screeming [BOOST] one time, and he didn't know how to use a Morningstar.

Speaking of which, that Morningstar was the defenition of weird, it could expand, minimize, shoot out 'spikes', deflate and shoot itself. He tried to ask shuni what it was, only to get a answer that irritated him.

“find out yourself”

...that was 2 hours ago, before he met a pack of wood wolves, shino was a cruel, cruel guy, is what he took from that exchange.






1 hour timeskip

"The hell is this?" Issei asked himself, he was now standing before a spear that had a rose design, it was contained in a see through wall that seemed to have weird markings

Issei cautiously approached it as the encounter with the weird monster thing made him peranoid of everything he came across, as he went up to the wall he felt a sudden urge to touch it, in a few moments issei let himself touch the wall everything seemed to dissapear, only leaving him in a dark void, the same one he had seen when the weird gauntlet appered

'what the hell is this?' issei asked himself

'a visitor that's not shino? Well this is interesting...' a voice said as issei snapped his head back to see....himself?

"Heh, what you see yourself? That means you're not going to die!" The clone proclaimed waving his arms "fufufu you kinda look familiar, may I get your name young man?"

"Uhh issei, issei hyoudou"

The clone smiled before placing a hand infront of himself.

"That explains everything, shino didn't tell me about this... But I can improvise" the clone said before dissapearing at speeds issei couldn't even comprehend

"Peek a boo~" issei turned around to meet a punh to his face as his copy pulled out his version of sunflayer, it was almost identical, except the sunflowers were withered

"What the fuck is going on!?" Issei asked in confusion

"You're getting trained!" His clone yelled before blasting off again now infront of issei "now take your sword out, kid" the clone slashed in a arc as issei felt his stamina leave his body, making him unable to dodge as pain shot from his shoulder before he took out his own sunflayer whose ability unconsciously activated making his clone loose its own stamina stopping him as issei retaliated with a weak strike making the clone back off

"...oh....OH! OHHH! so that's what he did!" The clone said to himself before turning to issei "it's your lucky day kid!" He said as withered sunflayer went up in flame "I just got nerfed!"

Issei was now confused, scared and now even more confused, nerfed!? He was fighting a weaker version of this thing!? It was official, he hated shino hana with all his migh-

“i could've made you fight a stronger one ya'know?" Shino's voice made way into his ears as issei subconsciously activated sunflayers second ability as red flames erupted from the sword covering every part of issei's body as the gauntlet covering his hand glowed

[BOOST!]

"You're just tourturing me!" Issei shouted growing more desperate

"Yes, I am and if you can't best him I'm not going to help you with your gauntlet. I know how it works issei, Its the reason why those fallen attacked you. And it's going to be the reason you're being attacked right now, I would have kiled you long ago if you didn't have part of my soul, I would have taken that power from you the first sight I laid on you if not for the fact that taking your power will kill me, which I wouldn't mind, but I'm not going to leave someone alone for my own selfish desires so,yes I am torturing for you. Yes I am willing to torture you and yes I am willing to torture your family and friends, there is nothing you can do about it issei, if I choose to kill everything on this planet and leave you alone to suffer, you cannot stop me, you cannot fight me, you are a mere insect to me, that I can squash in a instant, the only thing stopping me is the half of my soul in your body" shino's voice ecoed with no emotion as issei's desperate reached its peek, his rage began to rise as his clone merely laughed.

Cruel sun

A ability shino never used, or to be frank could not use because of his ███████████ █████, it allowed the user to turn their rage and desperation into power, it evaloped the user in white flame (or in issei's case red) that substantially boosted their power. It also burned anything in its path, like a sun

"SHINOOOOOO!!! YOU BASTARD!!!!" Issei yelled in desperation and rage as his clone laughed

"That was your plan? Really? You're smarter than this shino-san." Issei's clone said

"If it works it works. Still as bad as the last time." shino simply said.

Issei charged at it with enhanced speed as the clone dodged easily before trying to slash his back, which failed as the flames surrounding issei's body deflected the sword.

"Huh, well let's see if we can counter that!" The clone shouted as issei felt his strength leave his body again, but now it was slower and he could now properly react

"WORK!!" He shouted as his sword produced more flames than ever taking every ounce of stamina from the clone who feel to his knees smiling

[DAWNBREAK X2!]

"Pro tip me, focus on thinking that your enemy is weaker than you... That works. Sometimes. Maybe. Alright it worked one time!" The clone said as sunflayer became a giant sword of flames decending upon him.

Slashing open the darkness that hid them, the shining blade piercing it's masters enemy finished its job, killing the clone with a single strike of its power.

"..." Issei didn't know what to say, he had just beaten something that had easily overwhelmed him before... Now he had to make his way to shin-

"Guess I'm imortal!" A cheery voice inturrupted his thoughts as he turned around...









...to see his clone smiling at him now holding the Morningstar, his was pure black but issei could make out some resemblence to his own (which was in s green pod, every one of the wepons he unlocks can turn jnto a green pod outside of combat).

"And you my friend." He said swinging the Morningstar around "are going to be in a WORLD of hurt!"

With shino

"I'm the worst.." shino sighed looking at his tv where issei used sunflayer to cut his shadow down

"You just want to help him" ophis said from his lap hugging him tightly

"Still, the pollen was too far... I might've broken his mind..." Shino said with regret headpatting ophis

"..." Ophis didnt reply but hugged him tighter

"I don't know what I'd do without you ophi" he said returning the hug

'probably destroy the world...'





Fun facts

Pre death shino would do what shino said in his short monologue without hesitation.

Pre death shino was more powerful than ophis and great red together

Post death shino has half his original strength

Issei (in this universe) can become imortal quite easily

Ophis really likes headpats

Shino's favourite game would be called ophismon infinity purple, where you have to tame hostile versions of ophis and make them talk to each other for a group therapy sessions.

Hope you enjoyed this chapter, also this is going to be a 4 or 5 part arc
