Prologue: The Day I Became a Devil Heiress
Where am I?
I can't see anything.
I can't feel anything.
I can't hear anything.
I can't smell anything.
What happened…? Oh right I remember. I died. Strange really… I don't remember how I died… Now that I think about it I don't remember much about my life. I do remember that it wasn't some accident that killed me… Was it illness…? Was it old age…?
Ah shit this lack of important details isn't a good sign. Well at least I know…
Fuck I don't even know my own gender! Was I boy or a girl?! Ok just calm down and think things through. Just run through some perverted scenarios in your head to see what my sexual preference is…
…
…
Oh man if I had a mouth or a stomach I would've thrown up in disgust. Well, at least I now know that I was either a straight man in life or a lesbian.
Strange that somehow I'm still plagued by feelings of disgust and lust when I have no body.
Also why the hell do I have so much clarity over my memories of my favourite manga, anime, video games, and comics.
…
…
…
I seriously hope no one checks my browser history.
Well, I managed to get some bearing of my situation. Now I just need to figure out if this is the hereafter.
Please for the love of God let this not be the Hereafter! I don't want to spend eternity in nothingness and doing nothing! I'd even accept going to hell if it means escaping eternal nothing!
Huh? I'm feeling so tired right now… So sleepy… I think I'll… sleep… for a moment…
What is this feeling? Feels like everything is pressing against me. I can't breathe yet for some reason I'm not panicking. Ah, the walls are tightening up, it feels like they're trying to constrict me… or is it trying to push me out? Either way I need to move! There seems to be only one way forward and… there's an actual light! I gotta keeping moving forward!
I see a light! I'm heading towards the light… Ok I probably shouldn't have worded it like that but you know what I mean!
Bwah!
I'm out! I'm out of that tunnel! I can breathe! I can feel the air against my skin!
Why do I feel so weak? And what's this goop around my body?
Suddenly I was attacked by towels as they wiped off the goop before wrapping me in a blanket.
What's going on?
Arms wrapped around me and I was taken into the embrace of someone.
I looked up to see the face of the one who was holding me.
My breath hitched as I gazed at the most beautiful face I have ever seen. It was a woman with flaxen-coloured hair and violet eyes. She looks A LOT like a very famous anime character that for some reason gets a lot of flak and hate by DxD fans. Just make this woman's hair longer and crimson and turn her eyes bluish green and she'll look identical to…
Oh… Oh don't tell me…
"She's so beautiful… Zeoticus come meet your daughter."
I was passed along to a VERY familiar looking man.
He smiled down on me. A smile reserved only for parents.
"Welcome to the world my darling Rias."
I looked into his eyes and peered at what they were reflecting: A baby girl with a tuft of crimson hair and blue-green, hair.
Oh…
I've been reincarnated… as an anime harem girl… of High School DxD…
Oh fuck me sideways…
You know when I said I would even accept going to hell to escape nothings this isn't exactly what I meant… not that I'm complaining as this was still a better prospect than eternal damnation.
Whatever doubts I had about being reincarnated in DxD were dashed when I was taken outside. Man I can see what the reincarnated devils meant when they complained about the sky being creepy.
We had entered into a carriage which happened to be pulled by actual bicorns.
They carried me to my new home which was the biggest mansion I have ever seen in my life.
There were honest to god-OW! maids waiting for us, all of them looked young and beautiful with the oldest looking at most at their late twenties to early thirties.
They welcomed us and catered to our whims with grace.
Now here I am in my crib getting poked in the belly by my mother. It was so ticklish that I couldn't help but giggle and laugh.
Hey I'm a baby right now so zip it!
Still find it strange that I've already started referring Venelena and Zeoticus as my parents so quickly. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I can't remember much of my parents from my previous life.
Oh what's dad doing here? Wait why are two looking at each other like that? Wait why are they-?!
The two embraced and fell on the floor, clothes were being scattered everywhere.
…
…
…
You have got to be kidding me…
Seriously what's wrong with you people?! I know we're devils and all that but there's got to be a limit!
I mean come on woman you just gave birth! And pops could you seriously not wait before you got down and dirty with her?!
Well, at least I can't see them from where I'm laying, although I wish I can block out the noise.
This is going to be a long life isn't it?
"Rias? Rias where are you?"
I was currently crawling my way throughout the mansion. Man this place is huge! There are a whole ensemble of rooms and I'm pretty sure I counted fifteen bathrooms and I may have found at least twenty secret rooms… at least I hope they're secret rooms and not the other option.
So… much… leather…
Anyway I managed to crawl my way to the kitchen seeing the chefs prepare the meals and the maids helping out.
I noticed that there are not a lot of male employees which I find curious. It could be that most of them are part of Zeoticus' harem but I doubt that as none of them seem to so much as blush in his presence and there was that one time one of the maids 'accidentally' tossed a bowling ball between his legs.
… Don't question it.
"Oh? Lady Rias is that you?"
One of the maids noticed me and picked me up.
"What are you doing here Lady Rias?"
I didn't answer, I couldn't answer. I'm barely past a month old.
God-OW! I hate it when it's clean-up time and the baby food is just plain disgusting.
"You should not be wandering around by yourself. You could get lost or hurt. Let's find your mother."
Well the maid does have a point. I may have a more mature mind, my body is still that of a newborn baby.
"There you are Rias!"
We found my mother. The maid instantly handed me to her.
"I should keep my eye on you for all time. You just cannot sit still can you?"
I nodded in agreement. I would have said something but I'm incapable of speaking yet.
My mother and the maid stared at me curiously wondering if I somehow understood her words before the two shrugged thinking it was a coincidence.
"Now come along Rias it's time for lunch."
Bleh!
It's weird. I'm in an isekai situation in a Japanese harem anime and yet not once have I heard anyone use Japanese honorifics, suffixes, or terms of endearment.
Actually now that I think about it devils have the [Language] ability and the light novels/manga were mostly in the perspective of a Japanese character so it would make sense if [Language] would use them. Since I was an English speaker in my previous life what I was hearing was automatically being translated to English… at least I think.
In truth I have no idea if I'm speaking and hearing English. It's possible that I'm just hearing devil language and somehow able to understand it due to being a baby who hears nothing but the devil language. I don't know. I don't remember if [Language] is something that's taught or if it's something instinctual.
My mom and dad decided to take me out for the first since I was born. We were about to pay a visit to my brother Sirzechs who I learned did not even know I was born yet.
I heard it was because they did not have enough time to inform him and eventually just forgot to tell him.
Except I think my mother did it on purpose. It was either for some light teasing or for some petty pay back.
Now we were outside and this time I had enough cohesion and time to take a look at my surroundings.
All the buildings looked like a mix of modern and renaissance with a hint of medieval to it. It was kind of weird yet somehow natural.
And the citizens they look like a mix of normal humans, demi-humans, monsters, and classical demons (both of the biblical and anime classics).
I realized that neither the light novels, manga, or anime ever really paid much detail to the general underworld populace. Those who had attention paid to them resembled humans.
The three of us were standing in front of a large building.
My dad told my mother to stay here while he goes in to break the news to my older brother.
They both had mischievous grins on their faces which made me think that them not telling Sirzechs about me sooner was on purpose.
My dad went in leaving my mother standing outside with me in her arms.
As my mother waited she passed the time by getting different reactions from me by tickling and poking me.
"WHAT?!"
The two of us were startled from our play by the sudden shout.
The two of us heard the some crashing sounds from insides, a couple of startled shouts, things breaking, I think what may sound like a startled cat, someone shouting: 'My leg!', and what sounded like an angry bull charging.
The doors were ripped open and somebody grabbed onto my mother and was shaking the two us.
"How could you mother?! I've been waiting for weeks and now you tell me I missed it?!"
Please… stop… shaking… me… I'm… gonna… hurl!
My mother noticed my discomfort and slapped my brother upside the head causing him to let go.
"Will you stop that. You're causing discomfort to your baby sister."
Sirzechs chuckled sheepishly while rubbing his head guiltily.
I managed to shake my nausea and got a good look at my brother for the first.
Wow… he really does look like an older male version of Rias, or rather me in this case.
"Well hello there, I'm your big brother Sirzechs. It's nice to finally meet my baby sister."
He greeted me with a heartwarming smile.
His hand reached out towards me; I grabbed his finger causing his smile to grow only for it to freeze when I bite down HARD on his finger.
This is for almost making me upchuck my stomach you red-haired prick!
Wait I don't have any teeth.
Dammit!
Fine! I'll just gum through his finger even if it takes an entire year!
"Aw look she likes you."
Mother smiled.
"… She's trying to bite my finger off."
Sirzechs deadpanned.
"She's just playing with her big brother."
"She's giving me the Evil Eye right now."
Revenge!
It's been a couple months since I've been born and so far life has been quite enjoyable.
Despite how our first meeting started I love my brother even if we don't get to hang out a lot. He is every bit a sis-con as they say he is.
I got to meet Sona and Serafall. I gotta say they were NOT exaggerating on how obsessed she is about Magical Girls… if anything they were understating it.
Sona is just so adorable as a baby… and oh so easy for me to corrupt.
Heh, heh, heh…
But now I think it's time for me to get to business.
Everyone is asleep right now while I'm still awake in my crib.
Ok so how do I do this. I believe they said that in order for devils to access their magic they must have a good grasp on imagination and to create. I watched anime and read a lot of manga and light novels so I definitely have a lot of imagination.
But seriously is that all?
I mean it's not like I can just imagine a ball of mud floating on top me.
Despite my expectations a ball of mud was floating on top of me.
Ok I did not expect that to happen. How about a small cloud?
Oh wow one actually appeared.
A feather? Some grass? Some hay? A pillow?
It's… so easy…
There's gotta be a catch.
Should I summon my bloodline ability? No wait that's a terrible idea. I do not want to deal with accidently disintegrating something or someone.
I should just practice the basics before I get to the Power of Destruction.
But for now time to sleep.
A year has now passed. Despite my expectations using magic only became easier for me as time passed.
I finally learned how to walk although crawling is still faster for me at this point in time.
I now have teeth (now that process was a pain in the ass) and I've been practicing on saying my first words.
I was now ready to surprise my family.
And wouldn't you know it my family invited the Sitri family to dinner. Turns out Serafall is my godmother which I found a bit confusing until I learned that due to Serafall being a Demon Lord the Elders would not be able to influence me as much as if I became a ward to an official Sitri member.
Grayfia could not become my godmother due to her technically being classed as a servant and thus being of lower class.
I am curious on who my godfather is though.
Right now we were at the table. Even though Sona and I have teeth we're still stuck having to eat baby food.
Well time to surprise everyone.
"…Ma…ma…"
Everyone paused and looked at me in surprise (save for Sona who was playing with her food).
"Rias… did you-?"
"Mama!"
I was suddenly lifted out of my seat and enveloped in my mother's embrace.
"My darling Rias said her first word!"
My mother was gushing at how I said my first word and bragging about it being 'Mama.'
Sirzechs approached me.
"Can you say Big Brother?!"
He looked so hopeful…
I resisted the urge to smirk.
I have something else in mind…
"Sis-con!"
Everyone stared at me stunned and…
Holy crap he actually face-planted like in an anime!
Serafall fell of her chair laughing while clutching her sides, mom and dad laughed, the Sitri family laughed, the maids and butlers were trying to stay professional but couldn't hold it in, while Grayfia tried to hide the fact that she was enjoying these turn of events.
I am now three years old.
I managed to survive my early baby years with my pride mostly intact. I can now walk properly and speak properly.
I've been practising my magic and started practising on using my Power of Destruction.
Much to my amazement it was even easier to use than regular demonic power.
Right now I manipulated the Power of Destruction into five star-shaped objects,
They look quite pretty despite the colorations. However I made sure they wouldn't touch anything as the last time I let myself relaxed I accidently disintegrated a pile of Grayfia's porn collection.
It was funny watching her trying to find the culprit while trying to remain inconspicuous.
The door suddenly opened.
"Lady Rias your-!"
I got so startled that I accidently shot one of my stars out the window… Well more like it completely blew apart the entire wall.
The maid and I could only watch as the star continued going forward, creating a path of pure destruction, disintegrating everything in its way.
Eventually it was out of sight before creating a massive explosion that reminded me of a nuclear bomb only with twice the power.
…
…
…
It was NOT supposed to pack that much damage…
"I will go get your mother and father…"
The maid turned to leave however when she turned to look at me she instantly had a look that best describes that she was about to have a heart attack.
Why would…
I looked up… Oh shit I forgot I have four more stars around me.
I waved my hand and the stars dissipated into nothing.
The maid sighed in relief before giving me a stern look.
"Lady Rias I implore you that until I retrieve your parents you are not to use your magic. Do you understand?"
I nodded my head in understanding.
The maid looked satisfied and left to find my parents.
Just what is going on with my body? Where is all this power coming from?
Five days had passed and I'm finally getting a tutor.
Mom and dad were quite surprised and happy at the discovery of my tremendous power and how I can seemingly manipulate my magic with ease.
Although we realized that I have trouble with the power output. I am unable to tell how much power I put into my spells so my body seemingly puts the spell into maximum without stressing me instinctually.
So my brother offered to use his connections to find someone who can teach me control and refinement and maybe even teach me a couple of spells while they're at it.
The doorbell rang.
That must be my tutor.
My mom picked me up as she and my dad went to the door to see who it is.
They opened the door revealing a young girl, who couldn't be any older than a teenager, with long black hair, red eyes, and has pointed ears like an elf. She is wearing a black dress with red markings and white frills.
"Are you Zeoticus Gremory and Venelana Gremory?"
"Yes we are. And might you be the tutor that our son hired?"
She nodded in confirmation before bowing.
"It is a pleasure to meet you two. My name is Eve Reese and I will be tutoring your daughter."
Eve Reese huh?
I don't think I've ever seen this person in High School DxD yet something about her seems oddly familiar.
Eve noticed my presence and approached me while giving me a warm smile.
"It is very nice to meet my soon to be ward."
"My name is Rias Gremory. I hope we can become good friends."
Eve's smile grew as she patted my head affectionately causing me to smile in return.
Author's Notes
Glad I finally got to working on this!
So yes I got inspired to do this by Grunt Lord Ryan's 'RE: Fate DXD and Wagtails (Sekirei)' and EMIYA KURO's 'A BRand new day'
Also Silver W. King made his own SI!Rias fic 'Princess of Desolation.'
Seriously... why is there so much hate on Rias? There are tons of anime characters out there MUCH worse than her and don't even get half as many hate as she does!
So anyway this is a yuri harem fic.
As you guys can see this version of Rias is MUCH more powerful than her canon counterpart.
Before anyone asks: Yes she's a Super Devil like her brother, Ajuka, and Rizevim. However unlike those three she's not technically a 'Natural' Super Devil, she did not become one due to a luck-of-the-draw in the gene department.
It is for one simple reason. In books, shows, anime/manga, movies, and games what's the most common thing that demons and even some angels have in common? Human Souls.
Human souls empower demons. The more souls they take the more powerful they become. Remember she was human before reincarnating. As such her devil body is constantly being empowered by her human soul. She is basically the DxD version of the Hitoshura: An immortal body with the unlimited growth of a human.
However since she is still technically a Pure-Blooded devil she still suffers the weaknesses of other devils such as holy/divine objects/words since she is not a true hybrid and thus does not get the full benefit that comes with being a hybrid. However she will later on be able to overcome some of those weaknesses.
Though this is a DxD fic I'll be using elements and characters from other series that I feel can fill the gap and blend in well with DxD.
Eve Reese is not from DxD nor is she an OC. She's a character from another anime/light novel that's even more controversial than Goblin Slayer if you can believe it! Also she's serves as a foreshadow of how things will become... harder so-to-say for Rias down the line. I won't say how or why.
Also Rias will receive a unique form of Evil Pieces that will be out of the norm. It will let her have more peerage members than any other devil.
Well that's all I have to say! Gotta go work on my other fics.
See ya next time ;)
