After the Phenex incident, Rias was given 10 days to train us, meaning we had to start ASAP. Luckily for us, Rias had the perfect place to train, a mansion in the mountains which came with hot tubs, training equipment and of course plenty of food.
However, since we needed to start training, we weren't allowed to use teleportation or vehicles, we had to walk and carry everything ourselves.
Issei was struggling with a body sized backpack, while Koneko was hauling a bag the size of a car
"Come on Issei, you've got the lightest!"
I on the other hand was carrying several bags, each around the same size as Issei's, and was doing it just fine
After some more walking, we finally made it to the mansion
"Alright guys, lets head inside and get going on this training!"
"Hang on, I've got someone to help us, they should be arriving any minute now"
From the path came two motorbikes, and their riders were everyone's favourite demon hunters, Lady and Trish
"These two are experts in combat, so I thought it'd be a must for them to come along"
"Good idea, with such short time, we'll need all the help we can get"
We went inside, and got changed into some training clothes. As we did so, Issei asked Kiba a question
"Y'know when you said all that stuff about hating fallen angels? You never really explained what happened to make you feel that way, and I've kinda been wondering"
Kiba paused for a moment as he remembered his words from the church, how he admitted to hating fallen angels more than he could describe
"You're seriously asking me that right now? It shouldn't matter. All that matters is winning this rating game, we need to focus our energy on the present, not worry about the past, 'kay?"
"You're right! I am so with you! Lets do this!"
"Good to see you two getting along, we should head out, the others'll be waiting for us"
While Issei and Kiba went to train with swords, I went with Trish to focus on my demonic skills
"One of the many skills your father used was Doppelganger. It allows to you make copies of yourself out of demonic energy. It's incredibly useful in a fight, and can be used for combat or distractions. Focus on condensing your power into a tangible form, then command it to do as you please"
"You know, you're not a very good teacher, but I'll give it a shot"
I focused, and demonic energy coursed through my body, infusing every cell with power, but I didn't feel any different
"Well that went brilliantly" I said as I held my hands up in defeat
"I wouldn't say that"
I looked around, and saw red afterimages following me, making every movement that I did after I did it.
"See? Your power responds to your command. You can do things even Dante couldn't, just look at your teleportation, biological manipulation and devil triggers. You need to trust yourself more"
"Didn't think I'd need to, after all, I am the son of the greatest demon Hunter"
"That's still up for debate. So, do you want to put it to the test?"
"Sure"
We got up, and I took my jacket off, however, something attracted Trish's attention
"You never said you had tattoos"
"What? I don't"
"Well either you've been drinking or something isn't right"
We went inside, and after looking in a mirror, I saw three tattoos, one on each shoulder blade, and one lower on my back
The first one was of a demonic bird, which had lightning crashing down around it.
