"Good morning, Suzuki-kun!"
"Suzuku, how are you?"
"Hey, how was your holiday, Suzuki?"
As Sato was about to reach the school, he would occasionally meet students from his school.
Still, while his choice was weird as he had chosen Kuoh Town, and even studied at the Kuoh High School, where all the plot began, and how dangerous it was, he knew that if one thought carefully, no place was truly safe.
It was said that this country was one of the safest countries in the world, but it was often hit by earthquakes and tsunamis, and there were many other things that couldn't be counted, especially incidents, since no one knew when they would happen, as this island might even sink into the ocean.
However, instead of worrying about everything, it is better to enjoy the present.
Now is now. Later is later.
He thought that instead of worrying about the future that might or might not exist, he should just live normally, enjoying the present like any other.
Moreover, it wouldn't be as interesting for the story if the story started in another place, the author thought.
Then, as for why he was this popular?
Was it because the author wished to?
Not really, but well, if Sato made a reason, then it was because he was normal.
Yes, there were many who were more handsome, richer, and even stronger, yet all of those existences were unapproachable, high beyond everyone's reach, but he was there beside them, talking like any other, greeting them back like friends, and talking with them normally instead of lusting after them like they were objects for wanking his penis.
"Good morning."
As he greeted them back and talked with them, they then started to talk happily before they then noticed Aika, Katase, and Murayama, who were staring at them while shaking their heads.
"Ah, good morning, Aika, Katase, Murayama!"
"You damn, Vixens! Why are you trying to seduce him?!"
"Don't get ahead of yourselves just because you are all his club members, you perverted women!"
As they bickered with each other, Sato didn't say much, but he thought that it was good that Aika, Katase, and Murayama grouped up together, or else they would be bullied.
In the harem story, the beautiful heroines who fall for the unassuming protagonist, and because of this, everyone would hate this protagonist, as everyone wondered why those lovely heroines would fall for him, and probably would even bully the guy.
Conversely, it was the same with the girls, but whether it was Katase, Murayama, or Aika, their appearance wasn't bad and probably one of the top, and each of them had their own charms.
Still, even if they might appear to be enemies, their relationship was quite good, too, and there were no eternal enemies, only eternal interest, and because of that—
"So, have you all succeeded in doing it?"
"Sigh... no, not yet, he wants it to be proper till we become university students."
"Just put an aphrodisiac on his food, then go all out! Until then, take us with you!"
"Then, you'd better clean up your place since I don't want him to have a weird sickness!"
"I am a virgin, dammit!"
As they had their conversation, Sato hoped that the Twice Critical would halve his hearing ability instead of doubling it and make his hearing sharper. Nevertheless, he wondered whether the women in this world were such perverts or if a certain force made them become perverts.
Sato knew that his thought was a bit extreme, but this was the world of DxD, the world where one of the most beautiful women would expose her tits and let her nipples be sucked by the protagonist, so the protagonist could become stronger.
Sometimes, he wondered whether there was a certain force that affected everyone's mind, such as a Sex God or a Breast God, or simply because all the women in this world were perverts due to the convenience of the original protagonist.
Then again, considering how the world was, everything was possible, but fortunately, at least, all of them still had common sense.
"But, can you get the aphrodisiac?"
"Don't worry! My father is the leader of the branch office of that blue pill company!"
"Tell us that sooner!"
"..." Sato.
They still had common sense, right?
"Good morning, Suzuki-kun."
As he heard this greeting, Sato quickly looked up and saw a beautiful woman with a slender and delicate body and short black hair. Still, despite her beauty, she had this air of strictness that made people subconsciously straighten their backs as if they faced someone with a higher position.
Sona Sitri.
This was the name of this young woman, who was also the student council president of this school.
Still, he wasn't good with her, but for his peaceful life, he couldn't show it on his face and had to greet her with a smile. "Good morning, Sitri-kaichou." Then, after he greeted her back, somehow, many of the members of the student council gathered behind Sona as if trying to overwhelm him.
Yet, it didn't shake him, but even so, he had to say, there were too many beautiful women in the ecchi story!
Unfortunately, all of those women would go after the protagonist, which made him sigh.
Still, while he might think or be slightly envious, he didn't have that many aspirations to become a harem king, having many girls under him since he felt that one was enough.
More might be possible for him, but why should he make trouble for his life?
Nevertheless, when Sato was about to be surrounded, he glanced at Aika, and the others, hoping they would stand before him, protecting him from the danger, but unexpectedly, their breathing grew harder as her complexion grew red!
'What the fuck?!'
"So, have you thought of joining the student council, Suzuki-kun?"
Yes, if there was a reason why Sona came to him, it was because she wanted to invite him as the student council president, but this was just a pretense, as there was something that she wished from him.
While Sato was speechless by everyone's response, he wasn't flustered by Sona's request; instead, he thanked her first. "Thank you for waiting patiently for my response, Kaichou."
"No problem."
"I am happy to hear from your invitation, and I have been thinking through this problem for the entire holiday, and I have come to a conclusion."
"And, that's the conclusion..."
When Sona appeared in a good mood, Sato said, "I think that this is still a huge responsibility for me, and I don't think that I am fit to bear such a responsibility."
"...."
"So, you refuse?"
"Y—"
"Think it over again."
"..." Sato.
"I am waiting for your answer, patiently, don't worry, and think this problem over and over again."
"....." Sato.
In other words, did he even have a right to refuse?
Yet, considering his position, he knew well that if he tried to antagonize Sona, he would be more or less dead, so he nodded and thanked her politely. "Thank you. I will think about this problem over and over again. Then excuse me. I still have something to do in class."
"Um, please think it over."
As he excused himself, he walked away as Aika, Murayama, and Katase followed him after they also bowed their heads at Sona, then looked at him sheepishly.
Meanwhile, when Sona wasn't in a good mood as she was rejected, a familiar voice made her mood even worse.
"Sona, you have failed. This time, it is my turn."
"Don't be in a hurry, Rias. You promised me before, right? I even gave up that boy for him."
"....."
"Are you really sure that you don't want that boy instead of Sato?"
The young woman tried to persuade Sona once again.
"Yes, I believe that he has a lot of potential despite being a human." Sona pushed her glasses up the frame as she looked at her childhood friend, who was also one of the most beautiful young women in the story, Rias Gremory. "You can have that boy, but Suzuki-kun is mine."
While Rias wanted to say something, a clear, yet lusty, unique voice was heard from the distance.
"Yahoo! I am so lucky to see Rias-senpai in the early morning!"
"Those boobs are worth worshipping!"
"Ah... how nice it would be if I could suck them!"
"....." Rias, Sona, and everyone.
They didn't have to turn their heads, and they could tell the faces of the famous trio of perverts in their schools. Still, one among those perverts had a particular talent, or potential, which made the school unable to ignore them; one was completely average, but he had a certain potential that Rias needed the most.
"Isn't he the one that you need the most, Rias?" Sona asked softly without a hint of urgency.
Rias glanced at the average boy, who started to act weirdly when their gazes met, then made up her mind and stared at Sona. "If you still fail, I want him too."
Sona's expression was so gloomy when she heard Rias' words. "You are so greedy!"
"It can't be helped. You know my situation, right?"
"...what if I can let you borrow him?"
"Oh, as you have said before, I am a greedy woman, so I want them all, Sona." Rias smiled and then excused herself. "Then, excuse me. I will go back and wait for your failure."
The young woman with an elegant and mature beauty bowed her head at Sona before she followed Rias helplessly.
"Kaichou..."
Meanwhile, those who stood around Sona cast a worried look at their leader.
"He can't run away. With his potential, sooner or later, he will enter this side of the world, and..."
As she pushed the frame of her glasses, Sona said confidently, "With how smart he is, I am sure that he will choose me over her."
Shudder!
Sato couldn't run away, and he knew he had to choose.

I think I will focus on this one.
As for my new novel, let's wait till I have energy since it is tough to write two novels with my situation now.
Still, please enjoy!
