Chapter 4 - Figuring Things Out

SQUELCH! I tear my katana out of the stray devil's head. Honestly this way of training is more insufficient than sparring with Medusa or Ushi. Most of these stray devils aren't even worth batting an eye towards, and their blood gets all over my clothes. I ran off before Rias and her peerage could try investigating me. I don't think I'm ready to involve myself with them yet.

I rush back home and immediately take a shower so I can clean this devil blood off me. After I take a shower I decide it's time for me to summon a new servant. I closed my eyes then re awakened in the dreamscape where the grail is. I crossed my fingers and closed my eyes hoping for a good servant. I opened my eyes slowly to see who I pulled.

POV Change - Issei

I woke up this morning with a huge headache. I couldn't exactly remember what happened last night, but I recall Yuumo saying she wanted me to die. I turn off my alarm clock and start making my way downstairs. Surely it was just a dream right? Just a really bad dream and the real date got re-scheduled. I'll just go to school and see what happens from there.

I approached my friends before class started and decided to ask them something. "Hey Matsuda, Motohama. You guys remember Yuuma right?" "Who are you talking about?" Both of them reply in unison. "The girl I was showing off to you 2 nimrods." "We can't recall anything about you and the girl. Those 2 words in the same sentence don't even sound right." I let out a long sigh, it seems no one remembers her except me. I decided to just go Matsuda's house to play a new game he got.

When I was playing I felt something off about me. I left his house and started wandering about in places. My senses felt sharper and my body felt way more stronger than it used to be. I don't remember being this athletic and I shouldn't hear things from certain distances. I wandered back to the park with the fountain. "Well it really is unfortunate, me running into you that is." I stepped back, or at least I tried to, I leaped back while trying to only take a step. Again the enhancements on my body are still confusing me. I turned to the direction that the voice came from and froze. The man had a fedora and was wearing a trench coat. The only thing I sensed from him was danger. So I ran, I ran as fast as I could in hopes I could escape him, but it seems I'm not that lucky. I could only take a few steps away from him before he impaled me with a spear of light. I turned back to the man to see that 2 black wings sprouted out of him.

It was exactly like my experience with Yuuma, I felt so powerless and was waiting for him to finish me. "Sorry about the pain I caused you. I seem to just have missed your vitals. But this time I'll be sure... to put you out of your misery." I was scared out of my mind." All I could do was wait for my impending death but before he could an explosion erupted from his right arm. I saw her in all her glory, Rias, the hottest girl at Kuoh Academy. "Don't lay a finger on that boy. I'm Rias Gremory. Nice to meet you, Mister fallen angel." The monster before me instantly fled, the last thing I saw before passing out was Rias Gremory. 

I woke up in my bed the following day, but I felt something squishy on my head. Not a pillow squishy, it felt softer and like human skin. I slowly opened my eyes to see Rias Gremory in my bed. I felt my hormones acting up. Was this a dream come true? Was I finally blessed by the oppai gods? But to my absolute horror I heard my mom coming up the stairs. "Issei wake up, please hurry up and get rea-." She looked at me, then she looked back at Rias, and then she looked right back at me. The only emotion I felt was utter embarrassment. She quickly closed the door and went back downstairs.

I heard my parents muttering something downstairs but I paid no mind to it. The only thing I could pay attention to is the beauty in front of me. I felt so shocked but the only thing I felt was Ria's hands on my face. She explained to me how she healed the wound in my abdomen and before she left she whispered something in my ear. "I'm Rias Gremory and I'm a devil." After all that I got to do something I never envisioned myself doing, I walked to school and chatted with the Rias Gremory. I don't fully remember what happened to me yesterday but I do feel extremely grateful. Before I left Rias told me she'd call for me later and explain everything. I caught up with Matsuda and Motohama at the entrance, it seems they were worried about me but I'm still on the high of seeing boobs for things in the morning. But in the corner of my eye I could see Shirou, he was grinning at me and gave me a thumbs up before walking away.

Before I could get to class I got pulled aside by Kiba. "On behalf of Rias Gremory, I was tasked to bring you to the Occult Research Club." I walked in the hallway towards the club and the first thing I saw when I walked in was a strange circle and Koneko Toujou. Guys and girls see her as a mascot of some sort. But another thing about her is that she's totally expressionless. She turns away from me the moment she sees me. "Don't touch my food." She says with malice in her tone. I honestly wasn't planning on doing so. I take in more of the room and see a shower in the club. The first thing I thought about was how it had running water, the second thing I thought about was seeing Rias naked and I immediately got a nosebleed. 

"What a lewd face." Koneko scoffs towards me. She got out of the shower and started to explain herself to me. "Sorry, I really couldn't shower since I was at your place last night." Before I can even think of a response, another voice chimes in, gentle yet playful. A tall girl with long black hair tied in a ponytail gives me a graceful bow, her lips curling into a teasing smile. "Hello, Issei. I'm Akeno Himejima. Pleased to make your acquaintance." 

"Now then, Issei." Rias Gremory steps forward, her crimson hair cascading like fire. Her blue green eyes lock onto mine, calm yet filled with authority. "There's something you need to understand." She pauses for a moment, as if giving me time to brace myself.

"You died that night," she says matter of factly. "But I refused to let your story end there. Using my power, I reincarnated you as one of my servants." Her lips curve into the faintest smile. "From this day forward, you are no longer human. You're a devil and a member of my household." The words hit me harder than anything before. Devil? Me? My mind reels, but her steady gaze makes it clear this isn't a dream.

She explained to me about how Yuuma was actually a fallen angel and about the sacred gear inside me. The reason they wanted me dead was because they were scared of my sacred gear. She explained to me about the seal she handed out to me and how she was able to reach me on time. To my despair I was the lowest class, a pawn. Before I could start wailing I was explained to how a pawn can rise to the top and I shouldn't fret but try my best to get stronger. 

Rias leaned back against her desk, her gaze softening. "Now that you understand the basics, it's time you learn what it means to be my servant. Devils fulfill contracts with humans. Normally, I'd send Koneko to this particular request. But she's already taking one, so this one you'll be taking a weight off her shoulders." She turned her eyes toward the petite girl, who was quietly munching on a box of chocolates in the corner. "…but I believe this will be a good opportunity for you, Issei."

Koneko stopped chewing for a moment, her golden eyes flicking up at me. "If you would be so kind" she muttered flatly before popping another sweet into her mouth.

I puffed out my chest, grinning ear to ear. "Leave it to me, Buchou! I'll nail this on the first try!"

Akeno chuckled softly, already kneeling on the floor as she finished tracing a glowing red circle across the clubroom. "My, my. So confident. Just step into the circle, Issei, and focus your energy. The magic will do the rest."

"Easy enough." I strutted onto the circle like I'd been doing this all my life. The crimson glow flared up beneath my feet, symbols twisting and swirling. For a second, I felt my body get lighter, almost like I was being pulled away. And then… pffft. The light fizzled out like a broken bulb, and the circle completely disappeared. 

I was forced to go to the summon on a bike. Have you ever heard anything as lame as that? A devil riding a bike to perform a job. I felt completely humiliated. I arrived at the job and met with my client. Or at least I tried to. He seemed extremely irritated that Koneko wasn't at his door step. But after some begging I did at his front door he let me in. The first thing he asked me to do was cosplay into a school girl in some sort of damsel in distress roleplay. He asked me to show some tricks for him but I didn't have anything I could magic I could pull out of my ass. I was about to just give up but I learned that he watched anime. Not just any anime but Dragon Ball Z. We argued a bit about the original that he watched and the reboot that I watched and decided to hang out.

Walking home after I was summoned I was quite disappointed. I didn't get a contract and all I did was nerd out about anime. Rias is going to be disappointed in me. But while I was musing in my thoughts I felt something. A chilling aura was emanating around the area I was in. My head moved before I could think and I saw a woman. She had black hair done in a long ponytail. Really big tits and a curvy body to go with it. "My name is Karawarner and I have orders to destroy you. This is truly unusual." I stepped back a little from her while trying to organize my thoughts. "She was supposed to have taken care of you already." She said as a light spear materialized in her hand and then she threw it at me. I quickly dodged to the left and did a barrel roll. "Is that the Gremory family crest? The fact that you're part of the Gremory household makes it all the more important to destroy you." 

I was scared, very scared. If I don't do anything about this psychopath then I'm going to get killed. I remembered what Rias said to me. I have a hidden power inside of me that I can draw out if I think hard enough on it. Focus, I needed to focus on my hidden power so I could draw it out. I focused, focused and focused until I could feel it. The innate power inside of me. All of a sudden the green glow emanated the whole area and the fallen angel was blown away with her clothes off. I looked at the gauntlet on my arm and was amazed. "Is that the sacred gear? I've got better things to do. I'm going to let someone else deal with this crap." As she flew away into the night sky. Or at least she tried to. "I don't think I'll allow that." Before she could fly away multiple white greatswords flew towards her. They pierced her arm, leg, shoulder and chest. In the corner of my eye I saw a tall pale skin woman with white hair.

She's wearing a white ceremonial outfit with gold and red accents. The top part is like a sleeveless robe that splits in the middle, showing her midriff and part of her torso, decorated with circular gold ornaments. She has a short white skirt with gold trim, and there are golden chains draped across her waist. Covering her shoulders is a large flowing white cape lined in red, with bold gold geometric patterns on the inside edges. Her legs are covered with thigh-high white stockings, and she wears white high heels. On her head is a very tall, ornate crown-like headdress in white and gold, which makes her look both regal and priestly.

My name is Irisviel Von Einzbern, and my order is to eliminate you.

Alright so I was stumped on what servant it should be for awhile. I'm not going to lie I should've dropped the new chapter like last Thursday but I got lazy. What servants would y'all recommend me to add. I'm interested in others taste. Also my bad for typos or mistakes because I didn't proofread it.
