Line 417: Line 417:


In the eyes of the Covenant, John-117 was branded as ''The Demon'' and was considered the main nemesis of the entire Covenant, with most of the Covenant fearful of his presence. [[Thel 'Vadam]] stated that the personal title emblazoned on John-117 was an insult, but also held a modicum of respect. The Covenant respected him in terms of his strength and how he was able to defeat thousands of Covenant troops effortlessly, with even Thel 'Vadam at the time unable to stop him from destroying Installation 04. Despite the Covenant's dissolution following the Prophet of Truth's death, John-117's nickname as a demon remains in use by many former members of the Covenant.

The Didact, despite his hatred of humanity, held some grudging respect for John's determination and persistence in fighting him against impossible odds.{{Ref/Game|H4|Detail=Didact, in-game model}} However, the Didact regarded being felled by a technologically inferior human and his deteriorating ancilla as being more humiliation than the Didact could bear.{{Ref/Novel|Id=Epi10|Epi|10}} The Didact later acknowledged that while John wasn't as advanced as humanity's ancient ancestors, he was not so unlike the [[Forthencho|Lord of Admirals]] or the other exceptionally gifted humans that the Didact had fought, becoming the first human to ever give the Didact a direct wound when the Spartan had stabbed the Promethean in the eye.{{Ref/Novel|Epi|20}}


On [[2553|March 3, 2553]], Lord Hood commissioned a [[Voi Memorial|memorial]] near [[Mount Kilimanjaro]] in [[Africa]] in honor of UNSC service members lost during the war. The ceremony was attended by John's closest folks - Dr. Catherine Halsey, SCPO Franklin Mendez and his comrades - Frederic-104, Kelly-087 and Linda-058, as well as by [[Naomi-010]] and [[Serin Osman]], formerly known as Serin-019.
