Hello all, now I would like to address to you all my books- they've not been up to scratch as I've been spending a majority of my time in College. I have currently been Studying BTEC Level 3 Business Extended Diploma, Art & Design Level 3 Extended Certificate and Japanese Beginners, no my plate is full and I'm constantly tired, not to mention a half hour long bike ride to said College and a half hour bike ride back with a steep hill to walk up. I would also like to state the constant Homework and assessments I'm given. I know I should address this elsewhere on my profile but it doesn't get as much coverage. Please do not be deterred from reading this book.

I want you all to realise that I'm trying my best to get back into writing my books after so long but with my lack of motivation, it has wavered. I am going to combat that by trying to write this book.

###

This book is a fanfiction between the Souls-like Anime game 'Code Vein' and the Anime/Manga 'Highschool DxD'. For those unaware of Code Vein, its premise is of a relatively 'Mute' main character of your own customisation with a power to bring Revenants (Superhumans similar to Vampires that can't die unless their heart is destroyed, meaning that they can be revived) back from the brink of extinction in a rough explanation. It's a relatively enjoyable game with some absurd Customisation options. Most reading this book already know the premise and characters of Highschool DxD.

This book will have the Main character of Code Vein come to Kuoh with a well established companion, his Attendant, Io (ee-oh).

In the game, Io's Premise is to stay by your side as your Attendant and help you throughout the game by encountering and restoring Blood Vestiges (Memories of Humans turned into Revenants) gradually making you more and more powerful once you get the Blood Codes of these Vestiges, the Blood Codes being the main source of power. Io wears a Blood Veil (an 'armour' very similar to flashy clothing, that gives you passive buffs, powers, defence and an attack buff) called Prayer's Crawl. Her Veil, when activated properly, can block attacks by, I believe launching out two arms from the veil itself in front of her (shown below on the veil itself). She wields a Halberd called Dammerung that she uses as her weapon as well as the ability to launch strong bolts of Electricity or Ice from her hands. her Veil and weapon is showed below.

The main character, that will named Harvey as that was the name of my character in my game and after myself, is supposed to be a Successor and soon-to-be king of the Revenants, this is his looks.

So far, my playthrough is around three fifths done so I don't have everything nor do I know everything, however, the MC in the game I have currently has around 20 Blood Cores, the one I'm maining is the Queenslayer's Blood Core, the MC's actual Core you get after you complete the Memories of your character. It's a one-handed weapon Blood core however I am using skills from other Blood Cores that I have mastered, in this one. The MC is mainly Mute as mentioned Before however, outside of Cutscenes, if you get hit, the character audibly expresses his pain, the main voice line I get is 'Damn you!', however though the use of Emotes, your character can use their voice; my character has a slightly deeper voice than average but not by too much- my character will speak in and out selectively, preferring not to and having Io speak for him.

My character, named Harvey(Saxony for Battle-worthy/Battle Hardened, a well suited name too) does not wear the current clothing nor veil shown but they are the best shown that I could find;

This here is the clothing^;

and this here is the Blood Veil minus the woollen sleeve on the left hand^. This blood veil is named 'Queenslayer's Claw' the name implies of a claw, which is the Veil's main power. When parrying the veil creates a Vicious claw on your right hand, making your current weapon disappear and parrying the attack, not only this but a perfect attack from behind will cause a disable-able cutscene,

(this) that causes the claw and that mask to appear over your face as your eyes flash red before plunging the claw up the non-existent rectum of the enemy and causing devastating damage as you effectively steal Ichor (Effectively Mana that supplants for all skills, magic and Ammunition of the Guns in the game) from them.

For the weapon, my character currently a Zweihander (not the real one), it's at +9 upgrade level with the Fortification modification which surmounts to almost 1300 damage. It's around 6 foot for the blade length and 2 foot for the width with a 1 foot handle that can also be handled with one hand with relative ease by my character.

Now Revenants, when exploring out into the lands of the lost (Revenants that frenzy from not consuming blood), need to wear masks to stop them from frenzying, Io wears a broken mask after the first boss during their frenzy broke it but not the breathing apparatus.

and Harvey, is wearing this because I cannot find his current one;

Within The game, no romantic relationships are present between any of the characters however I do believe Io and the MC have a bond that can be called that of Lovers, in this book, that will be shown thanks to what the tags suggest and there may be a polyamorous relationship with the DxD characters should you want it.

As mentioned, Revenants are akin to Vampires, they crave for blood and are immortal, both die once their heart is destroyed, the only difference is in the way they stay immortal and the powers that the Revenants have and how Revenants supply themselves with blood.

Regarding immortality, Revenants have this thing called Dispersal and Death. A revenant is a seemingly immortal being. When the host—a revenant—is injured, the BOR Parasite will cause the area to disperse and regenerate the damaged parts, even critical injuries. A revenant can die and revive over and over again. A Revenant will normally revive at a Mistle, this is mostly where Dark Souls comes in minus the other Game Mechanics; A Mistle

is a glowing plant found in the world. You can interact with it and select to rest near it. When you rest, your HP and regeneration uses are restored along with your Ichor. However, your Ichor stock limit will return to normal if it has been increased by Gifts (Gifts being the Skills, passive or Active that are from your Blood Codes). It's Just like a Bonfire where you can also level up through it making your character stronger using Haze, akin to the Souls of Dark Souls.

Of Course, this is going to be hopefully more thorough with the Action and story I will be creating in DxD universe, Sex scenes are already too thorough enough, those of my older followers know that.

I will be starting this book at the mansion in the 10 days before the Rating game between Riser and Rias where a Mistle will appear inside of it. I wish to completely skip the ordeal between Raynare and the Asia thing.

I hope all of you have read this far and are willing to continue. Please leave your comments below asking me whatever you want or need to know.
