Issei Hyoudou is not your average high school student. Adopted by Iseki and Emiko Hyoudou, he harbors a secret that sets him apart from everyone else: he wields the Boosted Gear, one of the most powerful Sacred Gears in existence. Alongside this draconic power of fire, Issei also possesses control over ice magic, a gift that feels more like a curse. The opposing forces of fire and ice constantly wage war within him, tearing his body apart. After years of struggle, the strain has become so severe that doctors have warned him—he might not survive to see graduation.

Sona Sitri, meanwhile, has her own burdens to bear. As the heiress to the noble Sitri Clan, she juggles her responsibilities as a devil and Kuoh Academy’s Student Council President, working alongside her childhood friend, Rias Gremory, to manage the supernatural affairs of the town. On top of that, she endures the protective shadow of her older sister, Serafall, and strives to lead her Peerage with precision and care, all while maintaining her impeccable reputation.

When Issei and Sona cross paths on the first day of school, their worlds collide in unexpected ways. A chance encounter over a simple game of chess sparks a connection that neither could have anticipated. As their lives intertwine, they find themselves questioning their futures, their choices, and the forces that bind them.

Will Issei find a way to balance the fire and ice within him? And can Sona let go of her carefully controlled life long enough to embrace a bond she never expected?

Less perverted Issei. IsseixSona with very small harem. Rated M for some language and possible lemons. High School DxD based story.
