Hyoudou Issei is an ordinary man. Albeit a bit too perverted for his own good. Or, that's who he was meant to be if he didn't receive the Ultimate Gacha System seven years ago and instead met a perverted old man. But thankfully, the Gacha System arrived in time.
Issei didn't have to use the idea of the perverted old man as a coping mechanism for Irina's departure. Hence, he avoided his destiny, but he gained the ability to write his own.
Currently, our hero is in the Kendo Club having a match with the captain. It would look intense to many who are watching the match, and both are equally matched. However, that's not the case for people like Kiba Yuuto, who is far more experienced in a real fight. No, they could see just how dominating Issei was with the sword. Kiba himself felt inferior to Issei.
Issei and Murayama were in a stand-off. As the round started, Murayama couldn't even see Issei move. No, she was instantly hit, giving Issei the point. They reset their position, and when the round started, Murayama was again hit without her seeing what Issei did.
"Issei! We love you! You're amazing!" Shouted one of the girls from the Kendo Club.
"Captain! You can't let him beat you! You're our invincible Captain!". Another from the Kendo Club shouted.
Kiba and Akeno watched the show. Even though Issei wasn't part of the club. Many were supporting him over their own captain. Then again, Akeno was thinking of something perverted in her mind.
'Ara-ara…I wonder what it would be like to dominate such a man,' Akeno thought. 'It would be some spicy moment at the least. He-he-he!'.
'Hmm…Such mastery over the sword,' Kiba thought. 'Even as a Devil, I could barely follow the movement of his sword. His control is beyond me. If I were to have a match with him, I would certainly lose. Unless I use my knight piece boost'.
Ten minutes later, the match between Issei and Murayama was over. Not once in the match did Murayama get a single point. She was disappointed in herself, but she was determined to improve her skills.
"Good match, Murayama," Issei said. He smiled at her and shook her hand. "If you even want to train for an upcoming match, don't hesitate to ask me for some advice".
"Will do, Issei," Murayama said. She then sighed. It was such a shame. "It's such a shame that you're a man. If you were a girl, that would have been a wonderful thing as you could propel our Kendo Club to the top of the national tournament. Another shame is that you couldn't be our club advisor since you're a student like myself".
"I still don't get why you don't open up the club for both males and females," Issei said. Though, he slightly understood it. "I get that some guys could be creeps and would join just to perv on you girls, but I think it would benefit the club in the future if you opened it to both genders".
"As great as that sounds," Murayama said. She was in a dilemma, but she didn't change her mind. "Many of the girls in the club are uncomfortable with most of the guys in this school since they were the type to enrol for the sole purpose of being a pervert, thinking they would have a higher chance of getting it on with a girl here".
"It's a shame, but understandable," Issei said. He nodded his head as he spoke. "Anyway, if you need any help, don't hesitate to ask me. I'm willing to teach you a few things".
After the match, Kiba and Akeno headed to the ORC room, where Rias was doing some paperer work, and Koneko was eating some sweets. Kiba and Akeno wanted to give their evaluation of Issei as a candidate for a knight piece.
As Rias was doing her paperwork, Kiba and Akeno arrived in the club room. Rias looked away from her work and looked at the new arrival in the room.
"Buchou, we have our evaluation of the knight piece candidate," Akeno said. She was giggling to herself as she said it. The idea of her whipping Issei in bed is still clear in her mind. "I would say he is cut above Kiba in terms of skills".
"I concur with Akeno's evaluation," Kiba said. He sighed at his own lower level of skill compared to a regular person. "His technique and speed with the sword are outstanding. If I was to have a match with him, I would lose 100% of the time unless I was to use my ability as a Devil and the boost of the knight piece".
"Oh? That's quite an evaluation," Rias said. She then took off the glasses she wears, not because she has an eyesight problem, but because it helps her concentrate. "Anything else to note?".
"I want to do things to him in bed…." Akeno said. She then started giggling again. "I want to see how great that body of his can hold against my whip".
"Akeno, I wasn't talking about things that happen in your head," Rias said with a sigh. Akeno is her right hand, but sometimes she just…sigh. "I was asking for things of note about Issei. Benefits that we can use to invite him into the Peerage".
"Oh? I have nothing else," Akeno said. "Hmm… You wouldn't mind if I spend some time with him whether he accepts being in the Peerage or not, do you?".
"As long as it doesn't affect your work, I don't mind," Rias said. Looking at Akeno, Rias had to make sure to warn her. "But make sure you don't take things too far. I know of your sadist kink. You being a Devil is different from those of regular humans. Make sure you don't hurt him".
"Ara-ara, I won't do things without his approval," Akeno said. She then giggled once more. This made Rias sigh as she knew there was almost nothing a man wouldn't allow when Akeno seduces them. "So? When are you going to approach him?".
"I plan to do so in a few days," Rias said. She then looked at all the paperwork on her table and gestured towards it. "All of these aren't going to finish themselves".
"I told you I could help you with it," Akeno said. She was always willing to help Rias when she was in need. "I can do some of the paperwork as well as you do it".
"I know, Akeno," Rias said. She then sighed. "But that's not the problem. I'm working on all of this paperwork as only Sona and I can view them".
"That's a shame," Akeno said. She then went to an area within the room and started making tea for Rias. Once she was done, she gave the tea to Rias. "Here, this will help you relax a bit".
With Issei, he was standing on a bridge watching the sunset. He does this every time he heads home. Issei loves to watch the sunset as he finds it calming.
While Issei was watching the sunset, he was approached by a girl. She had a slender body with a large bust. Her attire was her school uniform, consisting of a dark red jacket with the letter P embroidered in gold, a white undershirt, a red bow, and a green skirt with a thin white stripe around the lower end.
"Ahem!" The girl fake coughed to gain his attention. "A-Are you Hyoudou Issei?".
"Hmm…" Issei said while he turned to look at the girl that spoke to him. Issei's not a pervert, but he can appreciate someone's beauty without sexualising them. "Can I help you? I don't think we've ever met".
"My name is Yuuma Amano," Yuuma said. She was fidgeting quite a bit with her hands. She then took a deep breath before continuing. "Hyoudou Issei, are you seeing anyone right now?".
"Uh…N-No, I'm not at the moment," Issei said. He thought that the girl was about to confess to him. But he also realised that she was a Fallen Angel. So, he decided to play along for now. "I-I never had time to date anyone before".
"T-Terrific! I've been watching you for a while now, and I started to fall in love with you," Yuuma said with glee. But looking at Issei, she became nervous again. "U-Um…would you mind… going out with me?".
"Eh?" Issei was shocked. "S-Sure".
Issei was only planning to play along with Yuuma, but his Fiery Eyes Golden Pupils didn't detect any lies, except for her name. The eyes are capable of seeing through illusions and lies. Hence why he knew Yuuma was a Fallen Angel, just like how he knows that Kiba and Akeno were Devils, not because of illusions, but because of their magical energy, which he can see. Staring at Yuuma, Issei had no words to say except to accept her confession.
"W-Wonderful!" Yuuma said. "H-How about we go on a date this S-Sunday?".
"S-Sure," Issei said. Knowing that Yuuma wasn't up to something, he decided why not go on a date with the beautiful girl. He took a deep breath and calmed himself. "Can I have your number? That way, I can contact you and give you details for our date on Sunday".
Yuuma took a piece of paper and pen from inside her jacket, and she proceeded to write down her number before handing it over to Issei.
"Here you go," Yuuma said. She then bowed her head. "I have to go now. Please contact me anytime you need to".
Issei waved his hand goodbye at her, and he walked home. While heading home, he was still confused about the real reason why Yuuma approached. But nothing Yuuma said indicated any lies. Not even his Fiery Eyes Golden Pupil were able to decern any lies. Issei shook his head and stopped thinking about it for now. It's not like he isn't capable of protecting himself.
