So what caused Issei to snap? Didn't he believe in his parents' power? Seeing the fic so far, he'd probably gloat about them or say something akin to 'I might not be enough, but my parents would wipe the floor with you'?

And what's with Vali's statement of 'your parents were the only ones in your family who were affiliated with the Knights… the gap between us is far too great?'. Wasn't Lance the second on his list of 'dudes I want to fight', only second to Dulio? And he is a knight WITHOUT his Sacred Gear at the time, if I remember correctly. If Lance with a high class holy sword and hybrid powers ranked so high, why would Issei, the son of a Paladin and Arch-knight who you said could kick Vali's ass if they work together, and with a Longinus to boot, would be considered 'unworthy' to Vali, or at least some consideration would be nice, like a 'you might be just a good rival for me', Not a downright 'you're weak, you suck' when the changes in issei's backstory are there.

I'm sorry if I'm making too many questions, I'm just really curious. And don't tell me Vali said those things just to mess with Issei and make him fight harder. That's too easy...
