42 Riajuu's Influence

As Rias started to explain all about the supernatural to the brown-haired pervert, Alex relaxed on the couch with his girlfriend, who still wanted to know why they were still around!

Instead of asking in the club, she decided to wait and ask him later.

For now, they decided to enjoy the devil's hospitality.

"S-So, how do I unlock this Sacred Gear thingy?" Issei asked curiously.

"Well, you have to think of the strongest thing you can, maybe some attack or technique?" Rias said with a finger on her chin.

"Oh! I know!"

Hyoudou took a stance from the dragon ball and started to 'charge' a Kamehameha…

Even with a 'proper' voice, as if pretending to be a real fighter.

"Ha-me-ha…"

Alex rolled his eyes, and his girlfriend joined in that regard.

A few moments later, a red gauntlet-like thing manifested on the brown-haired pervert's hand.

"Woah… is that it?" Issei inspected the gauntlet.

While Rias bit her lower lip, seeing his Sacred Gear.

Twice Critical is nothing special. It allows one to double one's strength. It's among the basic Sacred Gears in the world, and why does she think the brown-haired pervert will have something special?

The Gremory Heiress hoped it would be something like an auxiliary use, not such a direct thing, or maybe she could develop him towards such a direction.

Yet, she was doubtful as the brown-haired pervert was a 'charge in' kind of guy with minimum thinking…

"What you have is twice critical. It allows you to double your strength for a short period. If you train properly and build a strong foundation, that boost can last longer," Rias explained to him as she had just recited that from a book.

"Nice!"

'No, it's not…' Rias said to herself, lightly massaging her temples with her hand. She needed to think of other ways to escape her arranged marriage.

'I thought Koneko said that he had a dragon smell on him. I thought it would be a gear related to any of the dragons. Then again, Twice Critical is a knockdown version of Booster Gear…'

The Gremory Heiress thought with a frown. She then looked at Alex. He was casually lazing on the couch with Julis on his lap, and this time, she was sitting sideways.

Rias can tell that the pink-haired girl is acting entirely differently around her boyfriend. She is much more affectionate towards him.

It reminds her of— devils with different faces for different situations, hiding their real personalities under a mask.

It was just that kind of situation; she never expected to meet a human with such qualities as a devil.

'Should I ask for some training advice? Both of them jumped leaps and bounds in strength in such a short time.'

For now, she decided to finish the remaining businesses. Then, when the time is right, she will ask for Alex's help.

"Since we know which Sacred Gear you have, Issei, you should focus on fulfilling your dreams."

Alex perked his head, hearing that sound like a devil would say!

There is some hope for her!

"Yes! To have a harem of my own!" He said with a silly grin.

Rias sighed upon hearing that. Still, she liked the enthusiasm the pervert had. She does wonder how long it is going to last once they start training.

Yes, training. Since Rias' plan to get dragon-based gear is a burst, she needs to start training to get out of that arranged marriage.

"Yes, to do that, you will need these." With a snap of her fingers, a pile of pamphlets appeared on her desk.

"W-What are those?" Issei Hyoudou had a bad feeling about those.

"These are devil-summoning pamphlets. You are a devil now, and regular people are the ones who summon us..."

As Rias explained, the brown-haired teen realised what was going on— she was turning him into a handyman.

Next, Rias has given him the Gremory family crest, allowing him to cast magic, regular or devilkind.

"Well, you are ready now." The red-haired heiress nodded to herself. She then motioned for Akeno to send him to a more populated area to give the pamphlets.

Her Queen nodded and summoned the circle and tried to send the pervert on his way– but.

"What's wrong?"

"It should have worked…" The black-haired Queen of Rias said with a frown. Such a thing never happened before. Why didn't the spell work?

"You two are way too reckless!" Julis snapped at them from Alex's lap. She was curious what these devil girls were doing, but seeing such a thing— an insane action! It was a shell-shocking moment!

"What do you mean!?" Akeno slightly frowned. She doesn't like it when someone questions what she is doing when she has been doing magic for years!

"I mean using magic beyond this pervert capacity! If not for the circle's protective functions, he would already be dead!" Julis explained with a 'Are you stupid' look.

Can't these devils sense how much magic the brown-haired pervert has?

Rias and Akeno quickly checked, shell-shocked and terrified Issei, both devils focused on him, probing his magic reserves.

'How can someone have this little magic! This little magic doesn't make any sense! This way below any regular human levels!' Gremory Heiress thought with a shocked look.

What did she add to her peerage!?

Akeno was no different than Rias. She couldn't believe someone like him even existed!

"Well… this is…"

"Issei, you will need to travel the old-fashioned way…" Rias finally found the right words to say.

"G-Gremory-san, what do you mean old fashion style and what just happened?" Issei asked with an utterly confused look.

One moment he was about to be teleported, the next moment Gremory told him that he nearly died and then they said he needed to travel the old-fashioned way!?

"What Gremory was saying is that you have so little magic it would kill you if you were to use a teleportation spell," Alex explained with a casual shrug. He talked about the brown-haired teen dying like he was talking about the weather outside.

"W-What? No way!"

"Yes way," Alex said to Hyoudou, then looked at Redhead." Gremory, you should start teaching him how to increase the amount of magic he has; otherwise, he will be helpful as a meat shield at most." He said with a casual voice that they discussed methods of how to train their pets.

"Hey! I am more useful than that!!!" Issei said that while showing off his Twice Critical.

Alex just looked at him for a second. He had a look that said, 'Are you for real?'

"Hey! I am serious here! At least I have something like this!" The brown-haired showed his gauntlet while Rias and her Peerage paled, hearing how the pervert taunted Alex!

Rias was about to stop him, but Alex narrowed his eyes at the brown-haired teen.

At that moment, the silver-haired girl jumped out of her seat and went away as quickly as she could, as she was close to Alex's sitting position.

Her eyes were wide, and she was utterly pale. As she was a Yokai, her natural senses were much more refined and powerful than any regular human being.

What she sensed has sent her survival instincts to overdrive! She just felt a massive amount of killing unleashed from Alex towards Issei!

While Koneko, who ran away from Alex, started to shake in her boots and look at Alex with fear!

Hyoudou simply collapsed on the ground, and he nearly pissed his pants. If the black-haired teen had unleashed a slightly stronger one, he definitely would have pissed himself, maybe even shit. At the same time, the rest of the peerage felt goosebumps going through their bodies!

Rias has already experienced a similar thing from Julis, only this one was much stronger, yet she was not the intended target!

The red-haired heiress looked at Issei. She could see him shaking on the ground while Alex was still lazily sitting on the couch with his girlfriend on his lap. They behaved like nothing happened at all!

"You could not even take my intent to kill. How on earth are you useful in any situation?" The black-haired teen asked with quite a mocking tone.

The brown-haired pervert gnashed his teeth. He tried to stand up, but his legs continued to shake, and he decided to take a break.

For the rest of them, it took a couple of minutes to calm down. They all looked at the teen sitting on the couch.

Kiba looked at his hand, and he could see it shaking. He tried to process what Alex had experienced to produce such— blood lust!

How much did he kill? But that was the thing: he didn't kill humans. Murderers have different kinds of vibes.

The blond knight knows that from experience.

This one was that of a predator, someone who kills for survival and to establish dominance in the pecking order.

But does such a place even exist in heavily populated areas like Japan?

Eventually, everyone calmed down, but the friendly atmosphere was gone, and Alex felt it was time for him to leave, as Issei should go home soon, too, and that fallen angel should be 'patrolling' today— hopefully.

"Gremory, now that you explained things and learned his sacred gear, I am no longer needed here." Alex, alongside Julis, got up from the couch and started walking towards the doors.

"I will see you later." Alex waived casually

"Good luck trying to train him. He needs all the discipline you can instil into him. Willpower alone is not enough," Julis said her part before following after her boyfriend.

Once the couple is gone, Rias looks at Issei.

"Issei, you won't annoy him ever again! Do you understand!?" The red-haired girl said exceptionally seriously to the brown-haired teen.

The pervert gulped down seriously, and for a second, he saw her eyes glowing and her hair somewhat come to life. At that moment, he realised Rias Gremory, indeed, was a supernatural being with wings or not.

"I-I understand…"

"Good, as Komnenos-san said, we will teach you how to train your magic reserves so that you can use basic magic…" Rias walked over, took an extra-large pack of pamphlets from her table and gave it to Issei, whose eyes bulged out as he felt the pack's weight.

"...until then, you will use the old-fashioned travelling style." She said with a 'smile'. Hyoudou understood this was Rias Gremory's revenge for snapping at the Riajuu.

'Damn you, Riajuu, for corrupting such Onee-sama!!!'

Grumpily, the pervert nodded at the orders he received from Rias.

'Mark my words, Riajuu! I will be Harem King!' The teen tried to pump himself up, even though his legs still were shaking, remembering that feeling of— certain death.

~~~~~~Later, Same Evening~~~~~~

As Issei was progressing through the empty street on his bike, he was stopped in the middle of one by a tall European-looking guy. He was wearing a trenchcoat and a fedora.

"A stray? No wonder, in a city infected by devils, such a thing is quite common. Stay still; I will make this quick.' The guy manifested a light spear in his hand.

Hyoudou's eyes went wide when he saw that spear. He could feel a chill going down his spine. At that moment, he remembered his weakness towards light energy!

'Shit! Is he a fallen angel, too?'

"W-Wait! I am part of Buchou's Peerage!" The pervert raised his hands, trying to calm down the approaching fallen angel.

"I don't know who she is, and you look like a weak stray. She probably abandoned you to this fate…" The Fallen Angel made a thrusting motion with his light spear, targeting the brown-haired teen's chest.

Issei tried to move. But, by this point, he forgot that he was still on his bike, thanks to no small amount of fear he was feeling.

…

...

Before the light spear could touch the teen, it was cleanly cut through the very middle vertically, going all the way to the fedora guy's hand and taking it off, too! The cut was so precise, for a moment, he thought a machine did it!

It took a couple of seconds to process what just happened as a harrowing scream escaped from the fallen angel's mouth as he moved to grab his recently amputated limb.

A fountain of blood exploded from where the arm was. The blood continued to flow as the next moment, it showered the asphalt and even landed on the reincarnated devil.

The warm blood snapped the teen out of the shock as he, this time, dropped off his bike on the ground. He ignored the pain from such a landing; instead, he focused on moving away from this.

"Ahhhh!!! Fuck! Fuck! Who did this to me!?" The trenchcoat-wearing fallen angel furiously looked around, trying to find the person who cut his hand off!

Quickly, his gaze landed on an individual with one of his hands formed into a sword of pure electrical energy.

"Me."
