Well if take the time to compare the power scale of pseudo dxd and true dxd. Issei in true dxd was at least on par with apophis (who heavenly dragon class). And months later issei in pseudo dxd fought on with vidar wearing his boots (who was stated to equal thor who in the top ten strongest being in the world) and wearing scale mail armor wich boost his power even more and also was using strength enhancing magic too. So how would you compare apophis to vidar wearing his boots and a scale mail armor.
