Back to this story again. Now for those on , I'm going to be blunt and explain how the harem is going to be bigger than the previous list. There's gonna be more girls along the way, however, it's going to take a while.

And to those on Wattpad who have an idea of how big the harem is, I'm gonna say that I do think I should remove some girls from the harem since there are so many. If anyone has an idea on who should be removed or not, let me know. Trust me, I've gone a little far with my harem list.

Ash was walking down the hallway, thoughts still going through his head. Here he not only learned that the student council are devils but he had also just been offered a deal to become a devil serving either Rias or Sona. From hearing about how the devils are capable of sensing his energy and how strong he is, he wasn't too surprised that they wanted him working for them.

It was also alarming to him because now he knew that his power was capable of being sensed by them and yet he forgot to think about learning how to sense devil energy. He was also starting to wonder if they weren't the only devils and if there were others around that might offer him to join their peerages as well.

And the power he was still learning to use was slowly growing without him even knowing it. It wasn't so bad, but if anything he could have, the wrong people sense him and come after him, like the fallen angels or even bad devils.

Then he thought, could it be possible that he'll become a magnet for danger? Will evil come to destroy him and hurt anyone innocent along the way? What if something comes to kill him and go after someone that didn't deserve to die or even his friend Pikachu? What if-?

"Ash?" He was brought out of his thoughts as he stopped in the hall before looking up to see the boy he met earlier. "Are you alright?" He asked while looking concerned.

When seeing the boy, Ash took a second to gather his thoughts before shaking. "Hey, Kazuto. Yeah, I should be fine." He says with a fake smile. "Just got a lot on my mind is all."

"I see. I heard you got called in by the student council. You didn't get into trouble did you?" He asked.

"Nah, I'm good. They were just curious and wanted to ask more questions about me. Something about me not being properly reviewed."

"Well, that's a relief." Then the bell rang. "We should probably get going. I don't think you'll need to worry about extra work since you were called in by the student council."

"That's a relief." Ash then took out his schedule. 'Math class. Great, I've heard that's the worst.'

Even though he still needed to take care of schoolwork, the concerns on his mind never faded. He was worried that things might definitely take a turn for the worse and he knew that it was probably inevitable. Still, he kept his focus and he managed to make his way through math class. He didn't think that'd ace it, but at least he put some good effort into it.

It was time for lunch now. Ash was at his locker, taking out his homemade food, and making his way to his usual spot. He remembered that he had brought Pikachu this time, though he would've probably still gone to the same spot either way.

"Going somewhere?" He heard before turning around and seeing Kazuto again.

"Uh… Y-yeah, just going to eat. Why?"

"Nothing, just thought you would like some company." The boy says while holding up his lunch.

'Oh no.' He knew that he couldn't risk Pikachu being seen by him. "I-I'm sorry, no thanks."

"Hmm? Why's that?" Kazuto asked, confused.

"I'm just not up for it. It's nothing against you, I just prefer to eat alone. I'm just used to it cause I don't like eating in large crowds."

"Um, sorry, I don't wanna sound intrusive or rude but I've heard that you once ate with Hyoudou."

'Shoot.' Ash thought while sweating. "T-that's different."

"Again, I don't mean to sound rude, but it sounds like you're trying to blow me off to spend alone time with her." Kazuto laughed as he blushed from his statement.

"N-no that's wrong!"

"It's fine, I'll leave you be. Have fun." The boy then took his leave.

"Uh… yeah, see you in class." Ash says before sighing. 'That was close. Man, now I feel bad.' He thought to himself.

Kazuto seemed like a good person, but he didn't want him to see Pikachu eating with him. Well, that was part of the reason. In truth, he was still a bit anxious when it came to making friends since… that day. He didn't want to think about it. When he got to his spot he made sure no one was around, he took his Pokemon out and shared his lunch with him.

"Maybe I should try to make it up to him later. That was kinda rude of me." Ash says while still eating.

"He didn't sound that bothered. I don't think that's gonna be a problem." Pikachu tells him.

"Right." The boy says as he ate. "Back to what's really important right now. It's probably best that I help the devils deal with their current problem and stay on their good side. I don't want them to think I'm the bad guy here."

"Ironic that we're trying to make enemies with devils."

"Heh, not wrong about that. Though Sona doesn't seem to have a problem with me not joining, for all I know, Rias and her are gonna be bugging me to join either of theirs."

"Are you gonna join one of their peerages?" The Pokemon asked as his trainer looked at him. "I'm not saying you will, I'm just curious on who you'd pick."

"That's the least of my problems honestly." Ash says before taking a sip of his drink. "I don't know anything about Sona, but Rias is a different story." He thought of what to say. "She confirmed that she knew that Isara was gonna go on a date with Yuno yet she didn't come to her rescue and came at the last second when she was dying to revive her as her pawn."

"That… does seem a bit off."

"And it's what bugs me the most." The boy looked back to the window where he last saw her and looked uneasy. 'She might be the most problematic. Better watch out for her.'

Pikachu stared at him for a second before saying… "Uh, Ash, I can still hear your thoughts since our minds are linked." He says which made his trainer's eyes widened.

"WHAT?! How did I forget-UGH!" The boy says, not noticing someone arriving. "I need to work on this ability a bit more so I can have some privacy."

"Yeah, this might be embarrassing if I can hear 'everything' your thinking."

"No kidding."

"Um, excuse me, Ash?" Their heads turned when they heard the voice and saw Isara standing right there. "Uh… sorry if I'm interrupting something."

Seeing it was just her, Ash cleared his throat, knowing that he didn't need to make an excuse. "Nah, it's fine. You can sit with us if you want."

"Okay, good." She says while sitting next to him. She took a glance before looking away with a blush. "Sorry, I don't usually get this lucky to be sitting next to a boy… especially twice." She also twirled a piece of her hair.

"There's nothing to worry about. So, anything you wanna ask?" He asked her.

"Well, it's more or less about your power. You have a Sacred Gear, right? That's where your powers come from?"

"Actually, I don't know if I'd call it a Sacred Gear really."

"What? Then where does your power come from?" She asked, curious.

"It's a power that comes from me. I don't know how to explain it, but it's a power that I've seemed to have acquired in some way or another."

"Really? Do you know where it came from?"

"Not exactly. But wherever and however I got it, I didn't learn how to properly use it. At least until Riolu showed up. He's better with that kind of ability than me."

"You mean to tell me that little dog is your teacher?"

"He may be small, but he is really smart."

"Um… okay then."

"You're getting better though. Just need to learn to control that before you break something else." Pikachu tells him.

"Yeah, I messed up a bit that time." Ash says as Isara looked confused.

"What time?" She asked as he realized.

'Oh right, me and Pikachu's minds aren't linked with her.' He thought before thinking of an answer. "Sorry, I wasn't talking to you. Pikachu and I have a way to communicate with each other with our minds." He says before taking a bite of his food.

"Oh right, she can't hear me."

"You can do that too?!" She says, raising her voice before he put his finger to his mouth. "Right, sorry." She calmed down quickly before looking at her arm. "I wonder what kind of powers I'll get from my Sacred Gear."

"I'm sure it'll be cool when it comes." He says while eating.

"Not as cool as yours." She muttered under her breath.

"What was that?"

"Nothing." She says, quickly changing subject. "So, where did you get these… 'Pokemon' exactly?" She then says as she looks closer to Pikachu. "Do you think I can get one of these?" She asked again.

That kinda made Ash look a little worried. He had no idea how to explain where his Pokemon came from and didn't know if he wanted to really tell her something like this. Sure it was one thing that the supernatural exists, but if anyone knew he was from a different world… well, he'd have to tell someone, but now's not the time.

"Um… well, that's the thing, I don't know really." He lied.

"Wait, what?" She says in disbelief.

"Yeah, a few days after learning about my powers, Pikachu showed up. Riolu didn't appear until the day after that thing with Yuno happened and all. I don't know where they come from.

"Aw, man. I really thought I could get one of those." She whined before stuffing her cheeks with food.

He felt a little bad because while back in his world, he could've helped her learn the ropes about how Pokemon work and help her get one. Unfortunately, things were not the same in this world. But if Arceus was gonna send more Pokemon to his world, maybe he could… well then he'd have an even harder time explaining where they'd be coming from.

Then he noticed that she stuffed so much into her mouth that she started coughing before he patted her back and spat up her food. "T-thanks." She says.

"No problem. You should be more careful." He tells her before the bell rings. "Well, see you after school. If there's anything to do." He says as he gets up while Pikachu gets in his bag.

"Yeah, see ya then." She says as she does the same as she mentally sighs. 'Well, maybe there's still a chance I'll get a cool animal like him.' She thinks to herself, smiling.

(Timeskip)

Today in gym class, it was time to do the one thing everyone hates. Climbing a rope to a bell that was attached to the ceiling. A lot of the class were already groaning and whining about the fact and complaining about how impossible it was. Unfortunately, no one could control what they were to do in class.

"Excuse me, Kazuto-" Ash asked the boy next to him who was about to begin. "What is the point of this?"

"No one knows. Most of us don't see the point and just decide to avoid this class for a reason." He says while pointing to the door as some were sneaking out of class. "I don't exactly blame them, but I don't know if it's worth getting into trouble over." he then begins trying to climb, slowly.

Ash looked around, seeing many of the students in his class having trouble as well, even Isara. He looked a little uneasy, but then again, this could help him if they suggest this for an exercise. Ya never know. He shrugged and went climbing. It was hard to get a grip on the rope, but he's been through worse.

'It's gonna be hard to keep my secret hidden without explaining how I got so powerful and where my Pokemon come from if Rias, Sona, and their peerages keep pushing. And keeping the existence of devils and angels secret from anyone else I make friends with will be hard. And Kazuto… man, he seems nice, but I wouldn't want him or anyone else to get involved, especially after what happened to Isara-' He was thinking to himself.

"Wow, look at him go!" He was broken from his thoughts.

"How the hell is he doing that?!" Another voice yelled from below.

He looked down and was shocked. Amid his thoughts, he had climbed higher than everyone else as he was halfway while others were barely that far. Even Isara looked surprised, especially since she had yet to even climb a ninth of the way.

"Damn. He's good." Aika says, just as surprised.

"Uh…" The gym teacher seemed surprised before he looked at the others before catching his composure. "See everyone? Take our newest student for example. If you just put your mind to it, you can do it." He says to everyone in the gym. "Good job, Ketchum. Keep it up!"

'This isn't gonna make me a teacher's pet is it?' The boy thought to himself before looking down.

Most reactions were shocked, annoyance, and amazement. The last one applied to mostly girls and the first two mostly applied to boys. Kazuto was watching too and he seemed to be both shocked and amazed by what he saw.

'Ah, forget it.' He just continued climbing.

He didn't go as fast this time as he didn't want to draw any more attention than he already had. Although, he wasn't sure if there was any more attention to gain. For how far he was from the ceiling, he still was a long way to there. He looked down, seeing that no one else was close, and sighed, knowing that he still couldn't control that he was getting stronger.

(Timeskip)

The gym class was over and the school day was over. When the last bell rang, Ash was packing up, wanting to leave quickly not just to get home but because he had gotten the attention of a few people, he didn't want to stay for too long. Isara wanted to talk to him, but unfortunately, he was out of the classroom quick to get out of the class without running.

When he got outside, he saw that there was a crowd in the area by the gates. He got concerned and ran over to see what they were looking at. When he arrived, he was right. They were looking at the fist-shaped dent that was left in the concrete wall.

"Where did this come from?"

"How could a vandal of done something like this?"

"Do you think we should tell the teachers?"

"I'd say to call the police."

He looked nervous as he listened to them talking. Not wanting to get involved, he snuck around the crowd and began making his way back to his apartment. Of course, he didn't know that he was being watched from afar. By someone with binoculars while hiding in a tree.

"That bastard." Yuno says angrily under his breath. "What is he planning." He says before the sound of a wrapper being open filled his ears.

"Is this boy really that much of a big deal?" A black-haired girl asks before putting a piece of candy in her mouth.

"Shut the fuck up!" He says to her before turning back to watching Ketchum. "He's not going to Gremory. Looks like he's a piece that she leaves to do his own thing."

"How do you know he's a devil?"

"He has to be. He must've known that I wasn't going to kill her so he tricked me into doing so in order for that red-haired bitch to make her a member."

"And why didn't he just kill her directly?"

"Because he didn't want to be the one to kill her? Fuck do I know? But I know one thing's for sure-" He says as he flew up before she sprouted black angel wings and followed. "Even if he isn't a member of her peerage, that doesn't change the fact that he's the reason that I failed to get her and the reason my hand is like this." He then shows his bandaged hand with his still torn sleeve.

"Damn, he roughed you up good."

"And he's gonna pay for it." The two then land in a tree next to the apartment he went into. "The moment I get the chance, he'll be begging for mercy."

"Sounds like someone is being a cry baby again." The girl says smugly before taking another piece into her mouth before he angrily snatched the back away before throwing some candy into his mouth which she got annoyed by.

"Hey, Riolu, I'm back!" Ash called out as Pikachu hopped on the couch.

"Master, welcome back." Riolu says as he hopped down the stairs. "You're back earlier than before."

"Yeah, I don't have anywhere else to be. At least, seems that way." He says to the blue-jackal.

"Things seem to be fine so far anyways. Isara is really nice." Pikachu says.

"That she is. She doesn't seem to be acting as perverted as people have said. Although, there seems to be a lot of fallen angels coming after her. I don't get what kind of power does she have that they would want her dead for."

"Whatever it is, it's probably very strong if that many enemies are after her." Riolu says as he jumped on the couch. "That only gives you more of a reason to gain better control of your power. It'll be easy to protect others."

"I know, I know. Is there anything we can do today? I wanna get some training started early today."

"Well, I would say it is good to see that you got back earlier to train. Unfortunately, I can't go out in broad daylight and I don't believe that this place is big enough for training of any kind. Do you know any place around here that'd be good for training?"

"I wish. There are only so many places I've been in when I arrived at Kuoh."

"Well, maybe we should start looking. At least tell me you have a way to find somewhere."

"Hmm… I can only really think of one solution." He then says before going for the stairs. "Come on, let's go."

Outside, the fallen angels watched as the boy was coming out of the window on the top floor before climbing up to the roof.

"Look at that." Yuno says before swallowing the candy in his mouth. "He's got, two familiars. What does he need those little rats for?"

"Didn't one of those little rats kick your ass alongside him?" The girl says.

"Oh my god, shut the fuck up!" He yelled at her before looking back. "What the-?!" He says, seeing the boy gone before looking around. "Where'd he go?!"

"Uh, right there?" The girl says pointing as he looked back to see Ash there before jumping high into the sky.

"He's doing that same stunt again." He says as he kept the binoculars to keep an eye on him. "What is he planning?"

"Maybe find out?"

"For the last time, fuck up!" He says before looking and seeing the boy jump again.

Ash was up in the sky looking around while using his enhanced eyesight. "Hey, I think I see something." He says while pointing out into the distance.

"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go." Riolu says.

"You might wanna hold on tight in here." Pikachu says as he retreated into the backpack while the other Pokemon got inside.

Listening to the advice, the moment he landed he started hopping from building to building as the fallen angels saw. "Now where's he going?" Yuno says while throwing the bag of candy as he flew after him.

"HEY!" The girl says as the candy scattered across the ground. "UGH! Yuno, you're a dick!" She yelled as she flew after him as well.

"Are you not worried about people seeing you Master?" Riol asked through his mind.

"I'm pretty much a blur at this speed. I don't think a normal person's eyes could see me." The boy says as he reached the forest and jumped into the forest before running through the trees.

"Damnit! Bad enough he has to be so fast, now he's gone again." Yuno yelled before looking for him again before being smacked in the back of the head. "Ow!"

"I paid for that bag, dick!" The girl yelled.

"Get over it!"

Ash had reached a clearing and looked around before breathing in a sigh of relief. He had reached an open field that seemed to spread for miles and reached the mountains. Pikachu and Riolu got out of his bag and the three looked around, taking in the sight and beauty of what was in front of them.

"This'll do. We have a large area to train in and so far it doesn't look like there's anyone around. Come on, let's get started." Riolu says before seeing the boy frowning.

"Ash, are you okay?" Pikachu asked which broke him from his thoughts as he looks at his Pokemon. "You're spacing out?"

"Sorry about that. It's just that… I'm still not used to not seeing Pokemon everywhere. I keep expecting to see at least a Pidgey or maybe even a Zigzagoon around here." He explained.

"Well, I don't blame you. I still have yet to get accustomed to this world too. Especially since this is one of the few times I'll be out in the open." Riolu exclaimed as he took in the sight once more. "Perhaps one day Pokemon will be allowed to populate this world and we won't have to hide any longer."

"That sounds nice."

"And anyways we must start training you on your newer techniques. We'll start by doing our usual meditation." The blue Pokemon says while walking in front of him and sitting, legs crossed. "Let us begin."

His trainer nodded before sitting in the same position as he formed an Aura Sphere, ready to train to fight against the fallen angels. Speak of which, Yuno had taken a while, but he managed to find the boy and hid in the bushes.

"Finally. What are they doing now?" He says while using the binoculars again.

"You asshole! I paid for that candy!" The girl yells as she grabbed his cheek pinched it hard.

"AGH! Stop it!" He says pushing her off. "And keep your fucking voice down! Shit." He then looked back at the boy. He saw the orb in his hands and looked closer, trying to see if he missed anything. This went on for about five seconds. "They're just sitting there. I don't understand."

"Oh, I don't know, ever heard of meditation?" The girl sarcastically says.

"I know what meditation is. I thought he was gonna be doing something different than this so, shut up bitch."

"This 'bitch' has a name and it's Layla!"

"Do I look like I give a shit?" Yuno jumped to the tree branch to get a better look. "Come on, what are you doing?"

Ash was channeling the aura sphere in his hand, trying to focus on his training and keeping his mind intact. He started to sweat a bit, starting to feel a bit of a strain. He tried to ignore it as best, though his fingers were slowly beginning to tremble and the sphere was starting to slowly flicker. Pikachu was starting to look worried as he watched his trainer began to struggle.

"Master, calm down. Don't force yourself." Riolu tells him as Ash was starting to calm a bit, but was still struggling a bit. "Relax. You must keep a calm mind. As I've said, don't use force and focus."

Hearing that, the boy started slowly inhaling and exhaling, relaxing as his hands stopped trembling. The sphere was also starting to stabilize and stopped flickering. Seeing this, the blue-furred Pokemon was relieved that he wasn't pushing it.

They went on like this for about thirty minutes, the fallen angels still waiting for something, anything to happen. After those thirty minutes, it was time to move on to the next point of training.

"You're still doing fine, but you're clearly still gonna need some training. Is there a reason you're forcing yourself to master these techniques?" Riolu asked.

"If there really is some kind of danger in this world that requires help from even me then I have to learn to control my aura as quick as I can so that I can protect-" Ash was beginning to say before his Pokemon put a paw up.

"I figured you were trying to rush things. I know that Arceus sent you to this world for a reason, but you need patience if you really want to help this world survive." He says before walking up to him. "More importantly though, I've noticed that your emotions are a bit off every now and then. That's something which can also hinder your abilities."

Ash wanted to say something, but he was cut off once more. "I was told everything I need to know. You don't really deserve what happened to you either. Therefore, I can understand why you're feeling the way you are. I wasn't just here to teach you to control your aura, I know that this is a task that's not gonna take you alone. If anything, there's gonna be more situations where you're gonna be forced to fight alone. Hence we need to make sure your emotions don't get the better of you either."

He thought about what the Pokemon says, wanting to argue that it wasn't as easy as he thought, but he also couldn't say that what was being said wasn't technically the truth. The more he thought about it, he did seem to get angrier than he used to be, and he was less trusting. If this kept up… well, he didn't want to think about that.

"Do you understand?" Riolu asked.

"Y-yeah. I understand." He responds.

"Then you know that it's best to stabilize your emotions as part of the training. You didn't cause any damage while out today, did you?"

Ash stared at him while thinking of what he did earlier and sweated a bit. "Uh… not… exactly…"

"MASTER!" Riolu says as the boy flinched. "Ugh. No one knows it was you, right?" He asked, getting a nod in response. "Good, at least there's some kind of relief. You must know though, you have to regain control of your emotions otherwise… well, I don't need to explain any further."

"Got it."

"As for now, let's test your combat capabilities. Considering what you've told me, you can't be using your aura all the time. You must also rely on the physicality of your body. Moreover, since you haven't risen your fist to battle before, it's probably best to think of a fighting technique."

"Alright, let's get started."

"Indeed."

While they spoke, the two fallen angels in the bushes were looking confused. "What the fuck? What are they doing? Why is he just saying random shit?" Yuno says out of annoyance. "What is that stupid dog doing with his arms?" He then says, referring to Riolu just doing gestures seemingly out of nowhere.

"Maybe it's… some kind of sign language or somethin'?" Layla says as she was leaning her back against the tree.

"This is so stupid!" He says before using the binoculars once more. "At this point, we'll have followed him for nothing."

Then he saw Riolu jump back and got into a fighting position which caught his interest. Then Ash stepped back and got into the same position while Pikachu went a distance away. He was a little relieved that something was finally happened, but was a little frustrated that it took so long. Then the Pokemon jumped at his trainer, attempting to throw a kick that he immediately blocked.

Then they separated before they started going at each other. They weren't going fast or anything, but it seemed like they were training.

"About time they started doing something." Yuno says before leaning closer. "The fact that he's being trained by some animal and yet somehow almost beat me is so-"

"Frustrating?" Layla beat him to it.

"I just-ugh." The man tried to argue but couldn't. "There's gotta be some kind of weakness he has that I can extort." He mutters to himself as he continued to watch the two of them train.

(15 minutes later)

Ash and Riolu came to a stop and the boy sat on the ground, catching his breath as he wiped his forehead. Pikachu woke up from his power nap before shaking his head as he jumped over to check on his trainer. He tugged on his shirt before the boy smiled at him and rubbed his head.

"I'm fine, buddy." He says with a reassuring smile.

"Alright, we've got the first part of our training down. It may be a start, but at the very least you have some combat training." Riolu says as he approaches. "Now we'll move on to the next stage of our training. Do you remember the new technique I taught you last night?"

"Hmm… Uh, which technique?" The boy asked while standing up.

"Huh?… Oh, right. The technique we're working on is weapon mastery."

"Oh, got it."

"Now, I've already told you how to start it."

"Yeah, I got it. So… I just start like this right?" Ash created an Aura Sphere between his hands.

"Just like that. Now keep focusing and think of which weapon you wish to form."

As they were doing this, Yuno had her head in his palm, bored after waiting for so long. His head was about to slump down before he saw what was happening and shook himself awake. Then he used the binoculars to see if there was actually something happening.

"Hey, bitch, wake up!" He says while smacking Layla on her shoulders.

"Huh?! What?!" She says as she woke up.

"Look, something's finally happening."

Ash was focusing on the sphere in his hands as his hair began to waver just by its presence. He didn't seem to notice and didn't lose focus. As he did so, his hands shook a little, but he managed to get them under control and the sphere started to glow brighter.

"Excellent. Now just move your hands as though you're molding the item you wish to create." Riolu tells him.

"Sounds, simple enough." Ash says as he begins to do so.

He started moving his hands around as though he was making a sword as the sphere started to stretch and shift in shape. A smile formed on his face as he continued to do so as it was becoming less of a sphere each second. Though his hands started to shake slightly again and the aura began to flicker and shake itself while sweat started to form on his head.

"Relax, you need to concentrate." Riolu says with his paws up. "Don't let your emotions get out of hand."

He started to calm down a little, but he was still showing that he was struggling to hold the aura in his hands. It started flickering even more as the blue-furred Pokemon looked worried and was about to intervene. Although, someone else beat him to it.

Pikachu was by Ash's side and hugged his leg. As he did so, the boy started to slowly but surely get back into control. The aura slowly stopped flickering and his hands had become steady which made Riolu look happy to see. Then just like that, the aura flashed which caused the boy to close his eyes immediately. Then when he opened his eyes, he was surprised to find that the aura in his hands had taken the form of a blade. Said blade being that of a sword.

Riolu smiled greatly. "Awesome. Good job, Master."

"Thanks, I uh…" Ash started to say, but couldn't find the words.

"This is a good start so far. The more training we get done the easier this should become."

"Good to know." He says before looking down. "Pikachu?" He says as the mouse Pokemon lets go of his leg.

"What did you do to settle him like that?" Riolu asked.

"I… I don't know. I guess… I just wanted to comfort him so I ran up to him." Pikachu states.

The blue jackal looked between them. "Hmm… well, whatever you did, it's really helpful. Although, it does show-"

"That we need more training? Yeah, figured you'd say that." Ash says.

"There we go, now you're getting the idea." Then the blue Pokemon created glowing bone in his hand. "Let's get some training with weapons done."

That made his trainer a little surprised since he thought that he could only learn that in his evolved stage. Nonetheless, he decided not to question things, held his sword with both hands as he got into position. Then Riolu frowned when he saw before dismissing the bone and walking up to his trainer.

"What's up?"

"Your postures off. You need to fix yourself." The Pokemon jumped up onto his back. "Let's fix this. Head up." He says while rising the boy's head. "Shoulders back." He did as he was told before the Pokemon jumped down. "Left foot forward…" The boy moved his leg before Riolu grabbed his leg. "Not that forward." He moved his foot to the correct spot.

The fallen angels were watching as the boy was getting his position fixed by the small Pokemon. "Wow, for such a tiny dog, it seems to know its shit." Layla says.

"I don't get it. This bastard nearly took me out, yet he's in-training?" Yuno says while removing the binoculars.

"Isn't that embarrassing?" The girl mockingly says as the black-haired man looked annoyed. "Although, maybe you could use that to your advantage."

"Use this to my advantage how?"

"I don't know maybe uh… well… he doesn't know that we're currently watching him right now, right? Maybe that could help or something."

The fallen angel took a second to think about it he looked back at the boy and thought about what his partner just said. Then a smirk came to his face. "Maybe I can."

"Uh, sorry but, how is the way I stand gonna help me in battle?"

"In battle, when you take a stance, you must leave as little openings as possible." The blue jackal walked back to his spot then looked back to his trainer. "That'll have to do for now." He creates his bone again. "Now, slow your breathing… and wait for the right time to strike."

Ash did as he was told and steady his breath. The two looked at each other, weapons in hand as they readied themselves for who'd make the next move. The boy had cleared his head of any other thoughts and focus… focus… focus… Then he made the first move.

He dashed forward with the sword in hand and swung at his Pokemon. Riolu blocked his attack with the bone before jumping back. He regained his balance before dashing forward once more with another swing that missed again. What they didn't know was that from a distance, two girls were watching them, intrigued by their training.

"I've never seen someone receive from their own familiar before." Yumi states.

"It is an interesting sight, an amazing one at that. It shows that one should not be judged based on size." Rias says while looking at Ash with great interest.

"President, are you still gonna try to get him to join."

"Well, I wish I could. He's grown far stronger than the last time we met, even while he's still in training. As much as a benefit he could be, I'm starting to worry."

"So, what do we do then?"

"Well, all things considered, we should make sure that we keep his trust in us. Even the fallen angels would be fools to attack him in this state of power, however, I have no doubt that they will." The red-head says before thinking. "Although, I am glad that he's trying to protect our member. Maybe if he keeps trusting her we can stay on good terms."

"I see."

"Regardless, as I said before. Whatever happens, we can't have him as one of our enemies. So, whatever trust we have currently, let's try to keep it that way for now." She says as her knight nodded in return before they continued to watch the boy.

'Even if you don't join my peerage… I hope you can at least help us in some way.'

To be continued…

And here we are. Now I know you all have been impatient and have been waiting so long for me to update. So here we have the next chapter to my story. I hope you don't mind the wait. Still, I'm not giving up on this fanfic, and if you wanna check out my other fanfics, go ahead. But yeah, I wasn't lying when I said I'd be removing girls from the harem to make it smaller, so to any Wattpad readers, let me know.
