Chapter 17 Everyone in the room.

Closing his fist except for his pointer finger, he imagined his magic to come forth at the end of his pointer finger, taking on the shape of something akin to a slanted blade tip. And, just as he thought, it worked just fine, however, this wasn't the test. This was still control over magic, not body.

So, using his pointer finger, he cut a line straight across his palm and willed himself not to bleed, and the effects were fascinating. There was his palm, a laceration straight across the front of his palm deep enough to see the veins underneath, yet no blood leak out. It stayed in and continued on its intended course.

"So, I was correct," Shin mumbled to himself, but Rias and the others heard him.

"What were you correct about?" Rias asked.

Looking up, he showed his palm to Rias, causing her eyes to widen. "The symbol on my back, the one that stands for control. It represents one of the powers of my sacred gear. It grants complete control of my body. As my magic is an extension of my body, I have complete control over that as well. To put it simply, I only have to imagine what I want to happen, then my sacred gear will take care of the rest on its own." Shin said.

"That's all well and dandy, but I don't see how that could be super useful. I mean, it stops you from bleeding out and allows you perfect control over magic, but this sacred gear is supposed to be very close to Longinus class in terms of power. Control alone wouldn't make it that powerful." Akeno said from across the room.

"I think you underestimate the limits of control, as there really is none. It first started working it's magic when it responded to my desires to bulk and get stronger. So, it forced my body to create more testosterone and estrogen, while also slowing down my metabolism so I would put on weight quicker." Shin said.

"Then, once it was time for me to cut, it changed my metabolism back, and then even sped it up, burning my fat at a much quicker rate than normal. Mimicking the effects of anabolic steroids." Shin said.

"I think control alone is much stronger than you give it credit," Shin said, but as they probably still weren't convinced, he would need to do a demonstration. After all, controlling a fireball and creating some lightning is common in the supernatural world. So, he would just have to use magic they hadn't seen as of yet.

Bringing his hand out, he pointed it at Akeno palm first. "But since you underestimate it, I'll give you a demonstration." Everyone in the room was shocked when Akeno was seemingly grabbed by an invisible force and was sent flying towards Shin at high speeds, stopping right before Shin's pawn and floating in mid-air.

"What did you do?" Rias asked, shocked.

"Simple, I willed my sacred gear to use what is known as attractive force to draw Akeno to me. I could also do the opposite and use what is known as repulsive force too." Shin said as similar to before, Akeno was sent flying backward at high speeds, stopping right where she was before, before dropping to the ground.

"If you need an analogy, then think about magnets. Usually, if magnets are by one another, they cling together on their own without any outside help, which is an attractive force. But then if you flip over one of the magnets, then they push away from each other. That would be a repulsive force. So, if it makes it easier, think of it as me turning Akeno and myself into magnets, and using the natural forces to do whatever I like." Shin said, shocking the members of the ORC.

"However, I don't have to stop there. Attractive and Negative force isn't the only natural force I could theoretically control. There is of course also…" Suddenly everyone in the ORC felt a weight drop down on their shoulders, making them feel much heavier than before. "Gravity, and also so many more," Shin said just as the weight left their shoulders.

"Do you understand now? How strong complete control over one's body, and by extension, magic is. As long as I can think of it, I can do it." Shin said, thinking of all the ways he could use this, but one in particular kept lingering in his mind, nagging at him. However, he wouldn't be able to do it until he was alone, because if it worked, it would cause chaos amongst the entire supernatural.

"I-I see. That indeed is very useful." Rias said, her eyes the size of dinner plates as she looked at Shin with awe and slight fear.

"Yes, it is," Shin said as he grabbed his shirt and put it back on. 'However, that really took a lot out of me. Note to self, just because you can do certain things, doesn't mean you should.' Shin thought, beads of sweat dripping down his forehead. "Now, if you don't mind, I'm going to go home. That really exhausted me." Shin said as he left the ORC.

Once Shin left the room, Rias looked over to Akeno. "Are you alright?" Rias asked, wondering if being used as Shin's guinea pig to test his attractive and repulsive force injured her at all; but Akeno's only response was to blush heavily.

"That magic. So, strong. So, dominating." And of course, instead of being injured she would just be turned on by it.

"Akeno, relay a message to Grayfia explaining what happened. I think my big brother would like to know of the power of Shin's sacred gear. Judging by what he just showed, if there is even more to his sacred gear, it might be a Longinus class sacred gear." Rias said.

"Yes, Buchou," Akeno replied, regaining her composure.

'If things keep going the way they were, and Shin keeps improving at the rate he is. Then I made the right choice in reincarnating him. It was a risk reincarnating him due to his sacred gear being unknown, but it looks like it will pay off. Shin might just be able to defeat Riser.' Rias thought as she started doing paperwork at her desk.
