(Reviewer: R: Review

A: Answer

I'm gonna take this format for this)

Wildebranch: R: You know, Telekinesis can be a really broken power. I mean, if he can train his powers to the utmost, he should be able to manipulate atoms. That's the capability to go nuclear at will. And that's just one of the million possibilities. Electrokinesis. Pyrokinesis. Cryokinesis. Just specific applications of TK at base. And if magic is based on particles? Hohoho.

A: I thought about that but, to be honest I'm actually kinda scared to go there... I'm still gonna have to go there eventually though, this is a world that if I don't go there, Tadaaki might as well just roll over and die, but I'm really not looking forward to it, the amount of research that I'm gonna have to do...(Cries in a corner). It's really cool though so as troublesome as it is, i think I'm gonna enjoy it anyway, he is going to have to train hard for it though, I'm not letting him have such a 'game breaking' power without him putting some effort into it.

Guest: R: Bom capitulo

Tomara que a história continue sendo atualizada

A: Vou tentar mas não prometo nada. (I'll try, no promises though.)

Guest: R: Hope his powers develop the same as the telekinesis powers did in the movie Chronicle.

A: I haven't watched Chronicle yet, sorry.

Raphaim: R: i really liked their interaction in this. keep up the good work.

A: Thanks, I'll try not to disappoint, I can't help but keep felling like I'm going OOC with Rias every once in a while even though I'm trying not to, I'm glad you enjoyed it though.

Madgizmo: R: Never has there been more appropriate advice from an OC to Issei in a DxD story. Definitely looking good.

A: Right?! It's something that I always heard people saying it and as I was writing I thought 'Someone should say it to Issei, right?' so I put it in, glad someone approved XD.

Phelipebr: R:Bom capítulo

Boa escolha não fazer harém

A: Obrigado, eu desgastei um pedaço das historias de harem, deixou de parecer 'realistamente' possiveis para mim.

(Thanks, kinda got tired of harem stories, guess they stopped seeming 'realistically' possible to me.)

There we go, I think I might have gone a bit OOC with Rias, I'm trying to keep the characters as close to the original as possible but I'm really not sure how well I'm managing.

Also Tadaaki might have gone a bit edgy this chapter, I'm trying to show the good and bad sides of his personality, the 'reincarnation' process I chose for him was the fusing of Souls, the him from the other world fused with the him from this world, creating a new 'him' and so he has the problems of both as well as the skills of both, etc, etc, I'll talk more about it in a future chapter.

Tell me your thoughts.

Enjoy.

I sighed again for the umpteenth time this morning as I felt the states all around me.

I was currently sitting in math class (I know, dreadful) trying my best to pay attention to the teachers words.

'Not the easiest thing to do when you're being stared at like your are an A grade piece of meat by some (girls) and the nemesis of a lifetime by others (boys).'

After switching to my school clothes (still feel like an idiot for that one) I had come to school with Rias, after all we were coming to the same place and if my new memories were correct (which they were) we were also in the same class, not to mention that I just became part of her peerage so she wanted to know more about me and and I wanted to know more about her 'here' and not in the anime.

The only problem with that being that I in my infinite wisdom forgot one tiny detail.

'How could I forget that Rias is The school beauty! Specially after looking at her this morning!'

I think you can imagine how much I wanted to smash my head into a wall when I realized why everyone was staring/glaring/ogling at me.

I looked at the seat next to mine where red-headed cause to my troubles was sitting and narrowed my eyes as I thought.

'You knew this would happen, didn't you?'

As if she could hear me, Rias turned to me, tilted her head slightly and gave me a smile.

And let me tell you, I could just feel the intensity of the stares increase.

So I did what any normal person would do… and let my forehead drop to my desk.

It was now the end of the day and I was walking alongside Rias to the ORC.

Seeing as there was no longer anyone around us, I turned a deadpan stare at Rias.

"You knew, didn't you?"

Rias brought a finger to her chin and tilted her head up slightly, as if in thought.

"What did I know about~…?"

Not buying into it, I continued staring at her, finally noticing her glancing at me from the corner of her eyes before she stopped pretending, bringing her hand up to cover her mouth and giggling.

"Sorry, sorry, I didn't think it'd bother you." She took her hand out from in front her mouth before glancing at me with a worried look in her eyes. "It's not a problem, right?"

I looked at her for a moment before letting out a sigh. 'You can't really stay upset at a face like that.'

I gave an helpless smile. "It's not exactly a problem, I never had much of a habit of caring for what people I don't know think, just… not really used to this amount of attention, I guess."

I then tilted my head slightly as I looked at her and frowned my eyebrows in confusion and worry. "Doesn't it bother you though? They do seem to think we're dating, for whatever reason."

Her face brightened up and she glanced at me with a smile on her lips. "I've learned to ignore it, the amount of rumors and gossip that has been created around me is, honestly, quite staggering."

Out of the corner of my eye I could see her smile turn into a teasing one. "You're also not that bad of a guy."

She turned to look at me and I looked back to find her giving me a seductive smile. "And besides, we've already spent more than a day in bed together."

I could feel the heat build up on my face when she said that, the way her lips stretched into a victorious grin at the sight of my - most likely - reddening cheeks, bringing a grumble out of me and giggle out of her.

We walked in companionable silence for a bit, before I ran a hand through my hair as I spoke absentmindedly. "I almost can't believe I was out for a day and a half." I chuckled to myself in amusement. "Longest I've ever been out, probably the worst state I've ever been in as well."

'In both lives.'

I looked to the side, remembering that Rias was walking beside me, to see her frowning at me before she opened her mouth, her eyes determined as she looked me dead in the eyes and her voice heavy as if making a promise, whether to me or to herself, I'll never know.

"And it'll be the worst state you'll ever be in, I'll make sure that it stays that way."

My eyebrows rose in surprise at her words before a peal of laughter escaped me as I tried and failed to contain it.

If I hadn't been so distracted in my laughter I would have seen as Rias's eyes flashed with surprise, frustration and slight anger, which hid the hint of hurt at how I had seemingly dismissed her words, that threatened to escape.

Finally, after a few moments of laughter, I managed to control myself and cleared my eyes of the tears I hadn't even noticed had come to my eyes, before looking at her with an apologetic smile.

"Sorry, I…" I paused, failing to find the right words for what I wanted to say, before sighing and looking up at the sky with a self-mocking smile. "I suppose I'm not used to others being worried for me…"

I looked back at her with an apologetic smile again. "I'm sorry if I offended you."

She looked at my face searchingly for a couple of moments before giving me a helpless smile, her eyes, however, had hidden hints of pity which made me cringe internally, so I faced forwards again in an attempt to ignore it.

She didn't say anything, whether due noticing my now sullen mood or me having actually having offended her when I laughed, I don't know, it wasn't anything new to me though.

I chuckled mirthlessly in my mind. 'And that's how I ruin another relationship, I think this might be a record. Take notes people, you might need this in the future!' I smirked to myself as my brain tried desperately to stall my nosediving mood.

Before I realized we had already made it to the doors of the old school building, I paused to take a proper look at it while Rias kept walking.

Just as she reached the door she looked back at me, her expression was serious yet her eyes were… soft.

"Tadaaki, I don't know the life you led before I found you."

As she said those words her expression softened and her eyes grew a reassuring, fond light.

"But know that whatever happens from this day forward, you are part of my peerage, and even if the whole world were to turn against you, we shall stand beside you."

Having said her part she opened the door and went inside, leaving me to stew in the thoughts her words had left me in.

I had to admit, her words were...strangely appealing to me, in a good way.

I turned my head to the sky, watching as the now sunset stained clouds rolled by.

'Even if the whole world turns against me… huh…' I felt a smirk grow on my lips at the thought.

'Then, I'll trust you and return the favor, even if the world stands against you and I have to walk towards certain death...'

I started walking to the door.

'I shall stand beside you,'

I opened the door and behind it stood Rias, leaning against the wall on her shoulder with her arms crossed in front of her, a soft smile still on her lips as she turned to look at me, and I returned her smile.

'So… don't betray my trust, okay?'

Rias walked in front of me and opened the door, showing behind it the familiar club room I had seen in the anime.

I walked inside and looked around.

A small, white haired girl with golden eyes - Koneko, my memories both old and new reminded me - was sitting in one of the couches looking at the both of us who just came in while eating snacks.

Tearing my eyes away from her, I looked at the only other person in the room, a black haired girl with violet eyes and all the right curves in all the right places - Akeno, now my new memories were the ones providing the most input, probably due to her popularity, not to mention she was also part of mine and Rias's class - she had an appearance comparable with Rias, even so, I couldn't help but feel that Rias somehow still won, even if only slightly.

She was currently standing behind what I assume to be Rias desk, her head to the side as she let her damp hair flow down and tried to dry it with the towel she held in her hands.

An action which only reminded me of the absurdity that I had apparently forgotten, which stood in all it's glory right beside her.

A shower.

A freaking shower.

I really don't think I can express how… ridiculous, silly even, having a thrice damned shower in a club room was.

Specially when said club room was a gathering point for its members!

I could feel my lips and the corner of my eye twitch as my brain tried to accept that this was now a thing in my life.

Beside me I heard a giggle as Rias started walking to her desk and I leveled the best deadpan glare that I could at the moment, one that, if she noticed, she ignored.

From the corner of my eye I could see that Koneko continued staring at me, seemingly trying to get a read on me, so I let her be, after all, we were to be colleagues from now, it was only normal that she wanted to find out what kind of person I am.

I turned my attention back to Rias as I heard her speak to Akeno.

"I trust that you have taken care of Issei-kun, Akeno?"

Akeno stopped drying her hair and gave Rias a sweet smile with her eyes closed.

"Hai, buchou!"

She then put a finger in her chin and looked up slightly, an action which I recognized as the same Rias had done as we were walking here.

What wasn't the same however was the way her eyes went out of focus as she licked her lips, sending a cold chill down my spine for some reason, before she spoke.

"But for him to be attacked two times in two days, it seems that he is quite the magnet for trouble, perhaps he'll bring me some new toys… Ufufufu."

I must say that the cold chill in my spine only grew at her words, making me tremble slightly.

Perhaps my tremble, brought her attention to me, as she looked at me, brought a hand to her cheek and plastered the same smile she always seemed to be wearing in my new memories of her, a smile which, to me, seemed… fake.

Maybe it's a coping mechanism, I think I had a similar one in my past life, probably still do…'

"Ara, Ara, please pardon my manners Akechi-kun, I was slightly distracted."

I tried to give her a reassuring smile, but I don't know how well that came out.

"That's alright, Himejima-san, I didn't quite make my presence known after all."

Akeno's smile widened slightly, though at the same time it acquired a teasing edge to it.

"Ara, Ara, and you're such a polite gentleman as well!"

I could feel as my smile become more strained at her words and I waved my hands in front of me dismissively from the sudden urge I had to direct her attention to anywhere but me.

"N-Not at all…"

'You're really beautiful, but I'm also really not into S and M, specially if you want me to play the part of M.'

Luckily there was a cough, more precisely Rias 'cough' which brought Akeno's attention to her and away from me, allowing me to breathe a sigh of relief.

I looked at Rias who was now sitting on top of her desk with a leg crossed over her knee, as she looked at Akeno with a serious expression.

"How was the investigation?"

I frowned slightly and looked at Akeno who was looking back at Rias without any of the previous playfulness and mischievousness.

"After looking through the most suspect gathering points we've found stray exorcists gathering around the abandoned church, we suspect that they are using it as a base, and that the fallen angels are behind them, but we don't know why."

Rias nodded as she frowned thoughtfully, she took a glance at me after a couple seconds before shaking her head.

"It doesn't matter for now, keep an eye on them, if they do anything out of the ordinary, I want to know."

Akeno nodded.

"So, how has Issei-kun reacted so far?" Rias asked with a more relaxed expression, a slight smile on her lips.

Akeno's expression also relaxed back to how it was before, supposedly sensing that 'work' stuff was done and she brought a hand in front of her mouth.

"Ufufufu, he has had some cute reactions so far, I can't wait to tease him some more."

I couldn't help but sweat drop at her words as I thought to myself.

'Himejima-san, your true self is showing…'

I would never say it though.

It didn't matter anyway since I heard the door opening and Rias's and Akeno's eyes turned to the door behind me

Turning around, I saw a certain blond haired knight walk in, a smile on his face, staying true to my new memories, as well as old ones, which mostly showed him with said 'eternal' smile on his face, not at all dissimilar from Akeno's.

Following behind the school's prince charming was one oppai loving pervert who I had pointlessly - and stupidly - tried and failed to save for what seemed to me like no actual good reason, since I couldn't actually justify it to myself (Believe me, I tried), the only 'good' explanation being that I wasn't thinking and ended up acting on impulse, so, like I said, 'No actual good reason'.

'That's gonna be saved in a corner of my mind as a prime example of how to never act in the future, and hereby labeled as a new piece of my Dark History which shall not be mentioned in the future, seriously 'Me', please think before acting in the future'.

Even if in this case the 'consequences' were something which I could accept and live with, maybe even something that I would have done anyway had I put some more thought into it, had it been any other situation and the consequences could have ranged from anywhere like harmless to plot shattering or even straight up death.

'Thinking about, had it been any other devil besides Rias or had Rias not have decided to take me into her peerage it could have easily gone to the 'straight up death' spectrum of the consequences…'

Anyway, said pervert looked around the room, looking at the girls and all but drooling at them, before his eyes finally landed on me and went wide before he let out a shout.

"Akechi-Senpai!?"

I'll be honest, I had to resist the massive urge to clobber him over as I felt my ears ring at the loudness of it and my eye twitch in annoyance.

"I thought you died! You didn't show up yesterday in school and no one knew about Yuuma-chan and, and…"

He seemed to struggle to find any more words as he tried to tell me his distress and everything that happened since the day yesterday, looking at him I couldn't help the wry smile that came to my face.

That is until an expression of remembrance came onto his face before it morphed into one of righteous fury, he rushed up to me and grabbed by the collar.

"You bastard! How the hell are you dating Rias-Senpai!? Was that why you didn't come yesterday?!"

I threw him a deadpan at look even as I felt my eye twitch again, before a thought came to my mind.

'Well he's not 'wrong', I was with her yesterday.' I sighed internally. 'I was unconscious as she healed my injuries, though.' I let out an even deeper sigh 'And it's the first time I spent a day naked in bed with a beauty, but I wasn't conscious for it!' I felt a sudden urge to cry. 'I can't even complain about or I'd be forfeiting my pride as a man if I ever told this to anyone…'

I was snapped out of my remorseful thoughts as I felt Issei shake me by the collar again.

Finally letting out a tired sigh I brought up a hand in front of his forehead and flicked it, feeling satisfied at the hiss of pain he let out as he let me go and brought his hands to cover his forehead.

I looked at him with a deadpan expression.

"You should know better than to trust rumors," I raised an eyebrow playfully as a smirk made its way to my lips. "After all, today, there was also rumors that you were going out with Himejima-san."

Issei's eyes widened and he glanced at Akeno out of the corner of his eyes, I swear I heard a giggling from behind me, along with Akeno's trademarked 'Ufufu's', but I decided to ignore it, mostly for my sake.

"And besides," I settled my face into a stern expression. "What have I told you about shouting?" I finished saying ominously as I looked at him through narrowed eyes.

Issei's eyes widened further and his face had 'Oh shit!' written all over as he backed away from me, sweating bullets

"A-About that, S-Senpai, I-I was just surprised! I didn't mean to!"

I continued looking at him as a wide smile made its way to my face before finally saying with the same wide smile.

"Punishment shall be dealt with latter."

"Noooo…"

I have to admit that watching him slump in resignation against the door was quite satisfying.

The sound of the giggles behind, brought my mind back to the situation we were in though, so with a sigh I called out to him.

"Come on Issei, up, we have important things to talk about."

He lifted his head to me in confusion and I sighed before shaking my head half amused at his cluelessness, half helpless and resigned at it.

I settled my expression back to a stern one

"You do remember what happened, right?"

His eyes widened and he took a glance behind me before looking back at me and nodding with hesitation.

I didn't know whether to feel happy that the giggling behind me stopped or unsettled at the silence and attention we were receiving, still though I continued.

"It happened, it was not a dream," I reassured him first, because of the hesitation in his nod and I saw his eyes widened again at the confirmation.

"But-"

"But there is more to the situation," I interrupted, and continued. "We would have a both died had we been left has we were."

I paused turned sideways and nodded to Rias. "We were saved, but some things had to change for that to happen."

He looked at me stunned for another moment before turning to Rias when a sat down on the couch.

Rias shot me a raised eyebrow in what seemed like a mixture of amusement and questioning, probably at me sitting down so I shrugged back.

'I don't like standing around still, I either walk or I sit down, why tire my legs for no reason?'

She either knew what I was thinking or just found the situation amusing with how she looked at me for another moment before shaking her head with a smile.

It quickly changed to a serious look when she looked at Issei, however.

Not even wasting any time she threw a photo of him and 'Yuuma' walking together and I could hear him murmur her name to himself.

"The woman, who attacked the both of you was a Fallen Angel."

Rias glanced at me and I managed to glimpse an awkward light in her eyes, which for some reason brought up an image of the conversation this morning to my mind.

'"You do remember that I was almost killed by a girl with black wings, right?"'

I brought up a hand in front of my mouth to hide the beginnings of a smile that had started to form on my face.

'I might be wrong, but I'm fairly sure that's what she's thinking about.'

I smoothed out my expression as she began to talk again.

"There are three major factions in the supernatural world, the Angels, the Fallen Angels, and us, the Devils."

I raised an eyebrow at her words.

'I'm pretty sure there was more than that, like the Nords, Olympus and all that,' I paused as I tried to remember before shaking my head internally. 'I never actually got that far, second hand information needs to be confirmed, make mental note for all such info I have.'

She proceeded to explain each faction.

"Fallen Angels, or Fallen, like the girl and the man who attacked you yesterday, were previously Angels who had 'impure' ideas and fell from heaven, they try to control humans and attempt to destroy us Devils."

"The Angels who serve the Biblical God, they live in heaven, sent with the order to murder us."

"I other words we're being attacked on all sides."

She tilted her head questioningly at Issei.

"Do you understand so far?"

I nodded when she took a glance at me and watched as Issei looked a mixture between stunned, awkward and disbelieving.

Looking at him Rias shook her head slightly with a helpless smile and sighed.

"The girl from before was following her task."

"Eh?"

I narrowed my eyes as Raynare's words passed my mind before shaking my head with a sigh.

"To kill you."

Rias nodded to me and Issei looked just...sad.

I really couldn't describe it any other, Issei looked sad.

'I guess I would be too, if I finally got a girlfriend and found out she only approached me to kill me.'

"The fallen had detected something in you which they deemed dangerous, she was sent to confirm it and eliminate you if confirmed."

I nodded my head at her words as Issei looked up.

"I'm sure you remember it as well, at least you had a decent reason, I was…" I paused and brought my hands up for air quotes as my lips settled into a wry smile. "'Being meddlesome', I think her words were, couldn't have put it any better myself" I shook my head in self-derision at the end.

He nodded absentmindedly, lost in his memories of the day. "She said I had a Sa-"

"Sacred Gear"

Rias cut him off and we both looked at her in surprise, only for me to flinch and settle into an awkward smile at the look she sent me.

'Note to self, self-mocking is banned in front of Rias from now on.'

She looked away from me and looked at Issei.

"Raise up your hand, close your eyes and focus on the strongest being you can imagine."

She then looked at me with a pondering look.

"You should also try, after all your value was quite high, a Sacred Gear would explain it."

I frowned and looked at Issei who already had his and in the air and was trying - and failing - to not look at Rias panties and focus.

"I don't have to hold my hand in the air so I?"

She looked at me in confusion.

"It's not really required but it supposedly helps in creating a mental image, why are you asking?"

I took another look at Issei and shook my head in exasperation as he was still in the same predicament.

"It looks pretty dumb so I think I'll do without…"

She looked at me in what seemed exasperation for a moment before shaking her head with a sigh and waving her hand at me.

"Go on then…"

I looked at her with a slight deadpan look as I thought.

'You're aren't hiding your amusement that well, you know?'

Still though, I put my hands in the pockets of my pants and closed my eyes.

'I'm pretty I shouldn't have one…'

I memories of when I came to this world flashed through my mind.

'[Telekinesis Confirmed.]'

'I still haven't gotten around to testing out if I actually got it when I came here, haven't exactly had the time, but if I did, that should be the reason I am worth 5 pawns.'

I cracked open an eye and saw Rias looking attentively at me giving me an encouraging smile when she noticed my open eye and I closed it again and sighed internally.

'I guess it wouldn't hurt to try though.'

I turned my eyes up in my sockets as I tried to think of what I considered the 'strongest being'.

'Saitama, maybe? Ummm… Actually, in this world wouldn't it be a dragon or something? Was that what Rias wanted us to think of? After all Issei's boosted gear is related to a dragon… Sure… let's go with that'

I tried to think of what I knew of dragons. Massive beings with absurd magic affinity, strong from birth and only grew stronger with time, able to spout elemental magic out of their mouths as a breath.

I paused as I felt a familiar weight on my nose.

'Why do I have glasses on my face? I thought I'd finally gotten rid of them in this life!?'

I opened my eyes and confirmed that I had glasses on my face as I glared at the frames in the corners of my vision until I heard a clap and turned to look at Rias who was smiling at me with her hands together.

"Congratulations Tadaaki it seems you do have a Sacred Gear! And for you to be able to awaken it so easily it seems that it was already semi-awakened."

I heard Issei grumble something along the lines of 'why was it so easy for him?' beside me but ignored him.

I processed her words and turned to look at the frames with a strange gaze.

'Are serious right now, the hell happened to Telekinesis then, is this it's representation''

Rias gazed at my face with narrowed eyes as she tried to remember what Gear this was before nodding slightly.

"It seems to be the Parallel Gear, I don't know much about it though, supposedly it improves the users mental department, something with being able to think of a lot of things at the same time…?" She paused and shook her head after a moment. "I haven't seen much information about it, sorry."

I gave her an awkward smile still sort of confused and shook my head.

"It's okay, to be honest I wasn't really expecting to have one."

She narrowed her eyes in warning at me and I raised my hands placatingly before I realized something and frowned before asking in slight deadpan.

"Wait, you said that it was already semi-awakened, right?" Rias looked at me confused and nodded. "And that this improves makes me able to thing of multiple things at once, right?" She nodded again, still confused, and I sighed somewhat frustrated with the situation, before asking resignedly as I pointed to the glasses on my face. "Then, is this piece of crap the reason why I always felt like I was thinking of a million things at the same time and had problems focusing until learned to control it?"

She looked at me stunned for a moment before starting to giggle, absently I noted that Kiba chuckled, Akeno giggled as well, while Koneko was the only one who didn't seem to care and continued eating.

I sighed and ran a hand through my hair before an idea came to my mind.

'If I also have Telekinesis, maybe I can disguise it as part of the Sacred Gear… I should confirm it now.'

I focused on a paper on Rias desk and willed it to rise, at first nothing happened, but after a couple of seconds and me putting more focus onto it, it flew into the air, bringing everyone's attention to it, at this point Issei had pretty much given up on awakening his for today.

Everyone then looked at me and I stood there with an awkward face.

'It wasn't supposed to be that attention catching…'

Rias looked at me with a questioning, awkward expression.

"That was you, right?"

I nodded silently and she continued.

"How, and also, why?"

I coughed to try and clear some of the awkwardness (It didn't work) and told her the excuse I had prepared.

"I had always felt that Telekinesis was pretty convenient, so I thought I'd try it, with what the situation is, I thought it wouldn't be much of a surprise, magic, angels, devils, what's Telekinesis next to that." I held my hand in the direction of the paper. "I'd say I was right."

Rias nodded her head slowly as if trying to process that. "Riiight…" She looked me in the eyes. "We'll have to look into that later."

I nodded as I thought bitterly. 'Of course we do.'
