I created this so that the current and future discussion of this topic can be found in one location because eventually another person will restart this exact same discussion again in the future in volume 22 spoilers just like the Ise queen thing.

I don't see the problem with a grudge character on this side of the story it has happened before(Kiba) and Issei helping her to overcome or find some kind of peace would be nice because doing something like Koneko or Akeno again would be boring. I don't see Cao Cao as main cast he is villain gone into the rival department I guess but not main cast.

I understand with the number of pawns thing because then you think that they are weak but what if Issei has a mutation pawn/s or he has grown enough that his pieces can carry more powerful characters. Regardless of that thought I guess Issei might end up with four pawns.

Rias becoming Issei's Queen is illogical. Issei's objective has never been proving his worth, Issei's peerage was to form his harem and now to one day become one of the top 10 peerages, face the "Champion" and face Vali with his own peerage not as Rias Gremory's pawn. If it is a matter of equals Issei is going to marry Rias and therefore gain the same rank as her if it comes to power Issei has surpassed Rias by such an enormous margin one could say it has now become the polar opposite situation.

asura or devas that is actually an interesting option considering Shiva's offer and the Prince of the Asura being fond of Issei maybe somewhere there is a half asura in hiding that they know about. What would make it even more interesting is if she had the Telos Karma.

When it comes to Indra and Hades I can see a confrontation with Indra but Hades avoids actually doing anything himself instead he likes to use people to do the deed instead. If it was a confrontation with Hades Bennia her family, history or something else will be the spark otherwise, adding another Grim Reaper to the story would be nice so that Sona can keep Bennia and Issei can get a Grim Reaper as well.

When it comes to Shintoism, Japanese swordsman(samurai) and other Japanese occult he seems to avoid bringing them into the story at a large scale even with Yokai a common occurrence are kept in very small amounts Nekomata and Kyuubi are the only two that have really appeared in the series. I think the Yuki Onna thing might have been to prevent this from happening.
