Travel and maid

When I started my travel, I wasn't expecting problems. But at the same time, this is the world of DxD so I wasn't so naïve as to think nothing would happen at all. So I sticked to crowded area. I travelled to various known archaeological sites, museums, theatre. I saw and listened to incredible pieces of music, performance, and so many more.

It was incredible. But after 3 months, I also realized how a pain it was to travel non stop without help. So I decided it was time for me to find an aid, more specifically, a maid. And if I was to get a maid, I would get the best in the world... EVER.

But let's be honest, if a perfect maid existed, someone would have already snatched it. So I needed to MAKE my perfect maid to suit my tastes and my needs.

I didn't want a machine, or a golem. These tend to be limited when faced with the unexpected. And frankly, with the world I live in ? The unexpected happens every Friday and some more.

If I choose another race from the supernatural world, it would be a political annoyance, because I had yet to receive my devil pieces, and could not reincarnate them into a devil. I was supposed to receive them when I turned 6 but for some reason, it was delayed. Not that I cared that much in the end.

As for recruiting a devil ? No thank you. Aside from the fact that they would end by spying on me for one or more people, their sin would make them a pain.

So I decided to take a human maid. After all, I was a devil, and I could certainly found someone out there desperate for something I could provide, in exchange for a life of servitude.

I then had a few problem :

a) Found a desperate individual with a great work ethic, and willpower (if possible female) ;

b) Find a way to gain the individual undying loyalty ;

c) Find a way fo upgrade said individual to become awesome (and sexy... after all, why not ?).

So I took a little pause in my trip and decided to craft a few things. The first thing was a compass that would guide me to what I was seeking. It was much more complicated that I expected. My problem was that I needed to add a piece of divinity inside my creation so that the item could be linked to the world. Let's just say it was hard to find a piece of divinity in the market...

The second thing was to create an object to give or transfer "things" from a conceptual or ideological level to "someone". For example, I wanted to be able to give "talent to be a maid" to my chosen future maid. Or "maid work experience". These kind of things.

And finally, a protection of some sort. If I had to create the perfect maid/secretary/whatever else I want, she better stay alive. I would hate to go back home for her to be killed out of spite by grayfia when she realized my maid is better than her (and that wouldn't be difficult seeing she can't stop poking her nose in stuff a maid should NOT be bothered with).

For the compass I got an idea. I could just take the divinity left inside a sacred gear by the big guy. It should work quite well since his divinity was one of the most powerful one. The problem ? It would most likely destroy the sacred gear and make some angel panic. Did I care if a sacred gear disappeared ? Not really. It wouldn't kill the individual attached, it would even get rid of the pressure the sacred gear exerted on that guy soul, so I was good with it. And the angels ? Fuck them. I was a devil in the end, and I really hated the church.

I now had a new problem. Find a shitty sacred gear that would not impact the plot if destroyed. No way I was going to go and destroy the boosted gear. I was expecting that stupid excuse of a human being to save my new reality. So no tinkering the protagonist, and possibly step brother.

But I could create a sacred gear detector. THAT was actually easy. I just needed to adjust the wavelength by using someone with a sacred gear as a reference. I even decided to put two level of detection. awakened, and dormant. For the awakened one I just had to go to the underworld and pass next to a devil with a sacred gear. basically, I just had to go in town. And for dormant ? Well I guess I'll see Issei in a bit.

***

To say that Kuoh town is underwhelming would be an understatement. I don't get why Rias wanted to come here. As a matter of fact, I don't get why Cleria Belial was even ruling this place. This town is completely bland. In the end it was pretty easy to find Issei, I just looked the address of the Hyoudou household. I remember meeting him the first time. A normal kid really. He wasn't corrupted by the oppai grandpa when I met him so he was even more normal. Just a kid amongst other. In the end, I watched him a bit while he played in the park, just the time for my detector to adjust the wavelength and went my way.

After all, I would meet him in the future, no need to introduce myself now.

A quick teleportation and a day in the devil capital, and I had adjusted my detector to found awakened sacred gear. I also used the time to buy supplies for my projects. As well as paint. After all, I was really starting to like painting.
