"Uhhh...are you okay man? Is that character really that important to you?"Issei asked the wistful Gabriel.
"are the porn mags hidden underneath your bed Important?"
"Of course they a- Hey! how do you know about that?!"Issei asked, surprised.
Gabriel did not answer and just looked at him with a face that said 'Really?' before answering.
"You're seriously asking why I guessed that you have a porn mag hidden underneath your bed?"
"You, who constantly Preach about Boobs and always try to peek at girls as they change clothes, along with your two buddies"
"Touché"Issei replied.
"Still, why are you upset? cant you just get her at a later time if you cant get her today?"
"*sigh* Issei, you dont know the blackhole known as gacha, especially the game I am playing, which is THE gacha of gacha, where the rates are abysmal"
"Anyways, lets not dilly dally, and get you changed, remember to get a change of clothes, you are gonna need it."
After saying those words, Gabriel got back to his previous wistful mood, and Issei just looked at him for a moment before thinking.
'Are game characters really that Important to him?'
The rest of the walk was quiet, but nonetheless, they arrived at the Hyoudo residence without any problems.
"Im back!" Issei announced.
"Pardon my Intrusion.."Gabriel followed.
—•—•—•—•—•—
"Wha-...WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!?!"Issei loudly exclaimed as he looked at the Huge Mosquito-like Mirror monster flying towards him and ran.
Meanwhile Gabriel, on his room was watching as Issei ran around and dodging the Mosquito Mirror monster while sipping a cup of coffee.
He, of course didn't leave Issei unprotected, as Hie was watching as well, her aura supressed and she shrunk herself as to not, scare of the perfect Training partner for Issei.
One of the weakest Mirror monster, for a newbie that has just entered the supernatural world..
although, I said weakest because its only alone, a stray, Mosquito monsters rely on group tactics afterall, most bug like Mirror monsters do.
' "Hm? It looks like its not a stray afterall, probably just a scout" ' He muttered, seeing 5 more mosquito mirror monsters from afar approaching at high speed towards Issei and the scout.
Figures, I did get into a killing spree afterall, killing every Dispider in sight, that must be why these mosquito Monsters are trying to enter this part of the town.
On a second note, there's one thing thing that he has noticed about the mirror equivalent of the house the big G gifted.
and that Is, the house is somehow is somehow not affected by the Mirror world's law, where any creature that were not born in this dimension will sooner or later, turn into dust.
thats the reason why he wasn't transformed even though he was Inside the mirror dimension, and as for Issei, Its as if he has a resistance towards the effect of the mirror dimension.
There are two guesses of his of how this happened, its either because he's a devil or because he has the Boosted gear which houses the Heavenly Dragon of Domination.
"AAAAAHH!!! Theres more?!?!"
Issei's voice woke up Gabriel from his inner monologue, He looked towards Issei and the near approaching Mosquito Mirror monster, which we'll just call Mosquirror.
"Gabriel Hellpp!!"Issei shouted once more, pleading for help.
Gabriel sigh's and said "Alright-alright"
before jumping out the window, and transforming, dragging away the spectating Hiewolfer.
*Thud* After landing on the ground, Gabriel rushed towards Issei, taking out a card from his deck as he did so before Inserting it in his Visor.
⟨Speed Vent!⟩
Then, there was no then, as almost all the Mosquirror turned into motes of light which was later devoured by Hiewolfer who emerged from Gabriel's shadow.
now, why almost all you ask, thats because Gabriel left the one who Issei was facing before alive for him.
"Oii, why'd you left this one?!?!" Issei exclaimed, before he rolled over the ground dodging the mosquirror, by a hair's breath.
Gabriel just jumped back towards the window he was previously in,
Untransforming before sipping his coffee once again.
*Sip* "That one's your prey so dont whine,
besides, thats one of the weakest Mirror monster, If you cant defeat it then how will you defeat your future enemies?
and let me tell you this, they are not to be compared with this mirror monster, heck they are stronger than I am, so you better go and kill that one, so we can move on"
after Saying those words Gabriel sipped his coffee once more before turning to Issei, who turned quiet after hearing it.
*Bzzzzzzzz* *swosh* *bang*
In the next few minutes that was the only thing Gabriel could hear, and he already finished his coffe and is now, just looking towards Issei who was slowly but surely adapting from the fight.
*Shiiiing*
⟨Boost!⟩
"Oh?"
Suddenly, a green light shone which came from Issei's Twice Critical form of boosted gear, meaning that he finally learned how to use the boosting ability that doubles the users strength, which will mostly last for a minute or two before disappearing.
and surely enough-
*Fwoop!* *Bang!* Issei punched the mosquirror's eyes just as it lunge towards Issei.
the punch, coupling with the demon's physiology and powered up by Twice critical, destroyed the mosquirror's head
Gabriel clapped while walking towards Isssi, who looked at the moats of light flying away and didn't say anything.
"Congrats! You finally beat your first ever Opponent, Now go ahead and rest, Im sure you're pretty tired." He said, towards Issei who after hearing Gabriel's voice smiled before falling asleep on the spot, dematerializing his Sacred gear.
"This guy..." Gabriel's eyes twitched, looking at Issei who just passed out, and sighed.
"Hie, you can eat it" Gabriel muttered, before his shadow seemed to boil as Hiewolfer in all her glory came out before absorbing the light.
Gabriel patted Hie and rubbed her neck before saying, "You can go and play with cheemz inside, let me carry this guy."
Hie nodded before she walked towards the house, followed by Gabriel who was bag bag packing Issei.
Hie shrank down to dog size after reaching the Door before entering after Gabriel opened it.

(2 days later~)(Gabriel 1st Person P.O.V)
[Log:3 days into Issei's training]
*bzzzzzz* *splat* *bzzzzzz* *bzzzzz* *splat*
"Shit! Im getting outnumbered! help!" Issei exclaimed, asking for my help as he's getting outnumbered by the Invading swarm Mosquirror.
Yup, you heard right a swarm, it turns out I was gravely mistaken about the mosquirror on day one, they weren't just a group, they were—in fact the scouts of this huge swarm that decided to invade a day after.
Still, look on the bright side, Issei finally awakened Ddraig, which also awakened the Boosted gear to its truest form, Unlike the Twice critical form he had just yesterday,
The Boosted gear looks changed into a red gauntlet with a green jewel and 2 golden spikes that manifests on both its lower side.
On a side note!
I have completed my quest and also generated another!

________________________________________________________________________________________
Yeah, thats basically it, Me and Issei have been fighting the swarm since yesterday when the invasion started, only stopping when we have to eat and if we're tired.
Both easily solvable, we asked Rias to deliver food to my house for the first problem and as for the latter, a 10-15 minute soak on my magical bath and another 35 mins of rest on my magical bed is all it takes to solve that.
and as for wounds? the magical bath solves that as well.
Continuing on the swarm, Currently we haven't faced another Strong Mosquirror, Sans the two who was leading the swarm a day ago, who were at the latter stages of Middle class.
We're honestly mostly fighting fodders right now, and are quite relaxed, thankfully I have Issei here to help, and speaking of Issei's help, the Boosted gear is such a cheat! 2 days before Issei was having difficulty to beat one of these fodder mosquirror, but now, just the shockwave from his punches are enough to decimate hundreds of them.
I of course wasn't killing any less than him since even as Im speaking right now, Mosquirror fell and shattered like Ice, because they did in fact turn into Ice.
Courtesy of my partner Hie! who's very much enjoying her all she can eat buffet.
She's also getting stronger and stronger as she ate the essence of these Mosquirrors.
She has even reached Middle Pseudo High Class In power! and her being stronger also made me stronger!
I still can't beat Issei's Progress though, Bro's already at the same power as the rest of his peerage and me(albeit temporarily), even though it was only a few days ago that he became part of the supernatural, completely different from his anime counterpart.
I guess the Mirror world does wonders for training.
....
⟨⟨Slash Vent⟩⟩
⟨*BOOST!*⟩
*Bang!* *Swish!* *Splat* *Splat*
"Whew! looks like the fodders are all gone now Issei!" I said, while looking at the circling mosquirrors above, their looks are a bit different than the previous ones
"Yeah,*pant* I needed your help for this one, so it looks like we're almost clearing them all" Issei replied while panting every now and then, which I noticed so I asked him with concern.
"Can you still go on? or do you need to rest?"
"*pant* well....I can still go on a few more rounds against them, like 3 or 5 more of these guys one on one, before I need to tap out"
"... Okay, You take on as many of them as you can, and I'll take care of the rest.." I replied, before getting into my stance once more.
"Alright! Ddraig!! Let's Go!" Issei exclaimed, calling out his partner, The Welsh Dragon Ddraig.
⟨"Ouuuh!!! Lets do this! Partner!!"⟩ Ddraig replied, his voice coming from the green Gem on Issei's gauntlet, which also glows everytime he speaks.
*Bzzzzzz* *zzzziiing*
The Mosquirror's simultaneously dashed towards us, trying to impale and dry us with their pointy needle like appendage.
As fast as they are, our speed and strength are on par with them, so to us their speed is the same as a person dashing, but in reality its much faster than that.
Still, thanks to our speed being on par with each other, we could react to their attacks!
⟨⟨AdVent!⟩⟩ ⟨⟨Blizzard Vent⟩⟩
⟨*BOOST!*⟩ 10 seconds have passed since the previous boost and Issei's Sacred gear boosted him once more making his stat somewhere at Pseudo High Class
________________________________________________________________________________________
Name:Issei Hyoudo
Species:Reincarnated Devil

Age:17
Power level:Pseudo High-Class(Temp.)
________________________________________________________________________________________
Thats the only thing that came out from my appraisal a function of the system which I just discovered not too long ago.
It just displays the name, gender and age, as well as their power level, nothing too specific.
still, an appraisal is an appraisal I guess, its better than nothing at all.
and as for the mosquirror's Status.
________________________________________________________________________________________
Name:N/A
Species:Mosquirror
Gender:Female
Age:Ageless/Adult.
Power Level:Pseudo High Class.
________________________________________________________________________________________
(3'd person P.O.V)
As the nearest mosquirror reached, the two dodged In their own way, with Issei Jumping to the side, rolling as he landed before standing back up, a rather dangerous and wasteful way of dodging
While Gabriel, Only Tilted his body a little bit before counter attacking the mosquirror that attacked him.
⟨⟨Slash Vent⟩⟩
*shiing* *splat*
with a swipe from his claw the, mosquirror has been sliced into 4 parts, taking one down of the twenty-five or so mosquirror.
Issei, as well, after doing a barrel roll, he rushed towards the Mosquirror before punching It's head, which in turn, turned its head into a bloody gore before the mosquirror slumped down dead, bringing the numbers of the mosquirror down by one as well.
and seeing their comerades killed once more the other mosquirror were furious, they rushed towards the two with fury, but alas they were not successful with their plan of impaling the two as their Wing's suddenly froze, which in turn made them crash towards the ground.
Issei and Gabriel of course did not let the opportunity slide away as Issei, used the finisher move which he learned just yesterday.
Issei's sacred gear glowed bright red as he gathered all his strength towards the boosted gear before he dashed towards the area with the highest amount of mosquirror and shouted.
"Now! Ddraig!!"
⟨"Right!"⟩
⟨*EXPLOSION*⟩
Issei then punched with his left hand, which looked a bit slow towards the mosquirror but they couldn't do anything as they watched in horror as the Energy Expelled violently towards them, Eliminating 11 of the mosquirror.
Issei saw that he defeated a lot of the mosquirror and smiled before passing out, the same time as Ddraigs voice was heard once more.
⟨*Reset*⟩ *thud*
Gabriel looked at the passed out Issei before shaking his head reprimanding him in his mind "Tch, Tch I need to teach this guy not to sleep in the battlefield"
after one last shake of his head, Gabriel looked towards the struggling mosquirror's before saying, "Its time to end this"
Gabriel once again reached out to his Deck before taking out a card and Inserting it towards his Visor.
⟨⟨Final Vent!⟩⟩
Hie, who was absorbing the motes of light, hearing the call walked towards Gabriel and circled around him before she took a Sprinting stance as she grew bigger and back to her normal size, Gabriel then Jumped towards Hei's back before crouching in a stance as well and muttered,
"Let us end this hunt"
Hearing Gabriel's words, Hie nodded before Howling as she dashed toward Mosquirror and halfway there, Gabriel suddenly jumped! using Hie as a jumping board, while gathering energy towards his legs and foot until he reached the maximum height he could jump, while Hie who was left below sped up and Gathered all the struggling mosquirror in one place in a few seconds before she once more crouched into a position, parallel to Gabriel before she dashed towards the mosquirror's once more, frost energy gathering around her whole being which materialized by her freezing the ground she passed by, while Gabriel who's in a kicking position launched himself towards the Monsters too from above, his kick powered by the frost energy that is circling around his body like a snowy tornado.
*Swoosh*
In a blink of an eye, Gabriel and Hie was back to back to each other, while the Mosquirror's voice suddenly stopped before they slowly got frozen Into a thick eyes and crumbling afterwards, releasing moats of lights.
"Hunt Complete" Gabriel muttered before he looked towards Hie and said "Dig in! You deserve it!"
Hie, Happily obliged and absorbed all the lights floating, enhancing her powers more and more, which made her reach near High Class in power.
Meanwhile leaving Hie alone to enjoy her meal, Gabriel walked towards Issei, still transformed just In case and carried him inside his house, where they were greeted by cheems, He patted his pet's head for a short while before carrying Issei to one of the Guests room's which bed also have the same effects as the one in the master bedroom but on a lower quality than his.
After settling Issei into his bed, Gabriel finally Untransformed before he went towards the bathroom for a nice shower before proceeding towards the Gym, and doing his daily exercise quest.
Meanwhile, outside, a mosquirror gazed towards Hie' who was absorbing the moats of light, One thing worth mentioning is that this particular mosquirror doesn't look quite the same as the previous once Gabriel and Issei was fighting as It looks pretty humanoid, unlike the previous once who looked like a humanoid being with a lower body of mosquitoes.
*'Onore! Princess of the Fenris clan! You should have stayed ea in that cold place! I will report this to the empress!'*
After cursing the oblivious hie more, the mosquirror flew away.
Meanwhile Gabriel, after finishing his quest an hour or so later, after Bringing Issei to the guest bedroom, is now bathing, checking at the completed quest in the system window.
