The Twist We Need

Boosted What?

After having to tame the beast, Issei was sleeping peacefully through the night. Having to kick Sirzechs out of the room by guilt tripping her into walking out, Issei could finally have that alone time that he wanted. He didn't mind speaking with Sirzechs, but everyone needs a little bit of alone time here and there.

In his dream, Issei was floating in the middle of a small pool with random strangers in the distance portrayed as shadow figures. Issei continued sipping his apple juice box while having some sunglasses on. "This is the life..."

No responsibilities, no nagging, no training sessions, and unlimited amount of food. He just needed to think of something and that thing would come true. "This is my host?" Issei heard a very deep voice.

'Hold up, I wasn't dreaming about that.' Before he could say anything, Issei was quickly sucked into a small whirlpool that formed in the middle of the pool. "WHAT THE FUCK!"

It felt as if he was flushed because the moment he went down the drain, he woke up in the middle of a white void. In front of him was a very tall and intimidating dragon. Speaking of which, why was the dragon covered in flames?

"I wasn't expecting for my host to be close to such a powerful being." Ddraig chuckled to himself while going through Issei's recent memories. "Not only that, but you seem to have her care for you very deeply."

"Who are you?"

Ddraig stopped himself from saying something before squinting his eyes, "Did Sirzechs not tell you about me?"

"No, not really. She just told me that there were devils, angels, and the darker angels."

Ddraig sighed to himself, "I'm guessing she was too excited to train you. It appeared as if she was a little too forward with trying to train you. Anyways, my name is Ddraig, one of the two Heavenly Dragons that had fought the very three factions that mentioned during the Great War."

"REALLY? You fought Sirzechs!"

"What? No! Sirzechs wasn't around when I was alive. I had to fight God and Lucifer in person."

Issei's mouth dropped upon hearing that. "YOU MUST BE REALLY STRONG! Are you stronger than Sirzechs?"

"I haven't really seen much from her, but I don't really know. Let's just say that you are far below both of us so it doesn't matter who's stronger."

Ignoring the fact that he was called weak, Issei continued asking, "What's your ability? I'm guessing as a dragon you're more barbaric and raw in fights."

"You're not wrong. I tend to just beat my opponent with my fire breath and if they survive, I beat them brutally with my hands."

"So umm... What do we do now? I mean, we're literally in the middle of nowhere." Issei pointed to the white void that surrounded them.

Ddraig pointed to Issei, "This is the mind scape of the Boosted Gear." Snapping his finger, a red gauntlet appeared right on Issei's right arm.

Releasing a yelp from the sudden appearance of the gauntlet, Issei eyes sparkled with amazement in seeing it. The emerald gem glowing with the small little crimson aura surrounding his right arm was amazing.

In seconds, Issei felt much more powerful. His body got more tense but he felt unbelievable. "I HAVE A POWER!"

Ddraig smirked before nodding, "I would have made you bring it out yourself, but I really didn't want to go through that process. Rather than letting you learn on your own and have a chance to die without seeing your potential, I just forcefully awakened the gear itself."

Pumping his fist into the air, Issei screamed in happiness, "HELL YES! I CAN BE LIKE GOKU!"

"Now, before you wake up, I should explain what your 'power' is. It's a sacred gear named the Boosted Gear and it allows for you to double your physical attributes used in battle. Each time you hear Boosted, it will explode your power to heights you have never felt before. However, in doing so, you will feel immense stress onto your body and if you reach your limit, you will lose control and all your power will dissipate leaving you defenseless." Ddraig noticed that Issei began fading away. "It appears as if you're waking up. I suggest speaking with Sirzechs about this. She will be your teacher from now on."

Seeing himself fade, Issei looked at Ddraig one last time, "Will I see you again?"

"Of course... we are partners. I am the very soul that resides and allows for the Boosted Gear to run on its power. The moment you wake up, I have a surprise for you."

Nodding his head and disappearing, Ddraig stood in silence thinking over what he thought of his host. "This is definitely the weakest host that I have, but I have a feeling that Sirzechs will turn him around. If her entire peerage is filled with giants, I'm sure that Issei Hyoudou will turn into a behemoth as well."

Meanwhile with Issei, opening his eyes and staring at the ceiling before getting up instantly to think over what happened, the boy looked down at his right arm to see the red gauntlet still there. "IT WASN'T A DREAM! I CAN BECOME LIKE GOKU!"

"Will you quiet down?"

Hearing Ddraig's voice coming from the gauntlet, Issei widened his mouth before speaking, "Ddraig? You weren't joking. So... will you be guiding me to become better at using the gear?"

"Yes, but first... I think you should speak with Sirzechs about this. I need to speak with her about how to train you. I can't really physically train you since my body doesn't exist, but I can make sure your mind is at its peak at all times."

"Sirzechs... I don't want to train with her. She's going to kick my ass inside out." Issei groaned knowing what was going to happen to him.

Ddraig laughed before poking fun at his host, "What? Afraid of getting your ass beat? Can't believe the newest Red Dragon Emperor is afraid of a little spare."

"Shut up! You know what, I'll prove you wrong! I'll beat Sirzechs one way or another today."

"THAT'S THE SPIRIT! WE WILL BEAT HER ASS!"
