After I walk up to the front door I get a call from Rias, and I decided to accept it.

Akira:" What's up?"

Rias:" I just wanted to thank you Akira."

Akira:" Thank you? For what? I just listened to you."

Rias:" That might be true, but I feel a lot better after talking to you."

Akira:" Ah well it's nothing really, I'm just glad that you're feeling better."

Rias:" I hope we can destroy that wall quickly."

Akira:" Me too, however, we have to be patient."

Rias:" Well, you're the expert on the cognitive world, so I'll listen to you…I have to go someone from my family is teleporting in here goodbye, Oh no, it's just Akeno."

After she hangs up I head inside and go to my bed. I wake up to my mom poking me.

Cereza:" Wakey wakey my Darling son."

Akira:" M-mom? What are you doing?"

Cereza:" You need to wake up for School."

Akira just grumbles.

Akira:" Fine, please just leave my room."

Cereza:" OK my Darling son. I made the bento you and your brother love so much for lunch."

Akira:" Thanks, Mom."

Time skip to the classroom*

Today had been like every other day …Boring I had been longing for the days of Tokyo when suddenly Sonia's voice had cut through the classroom.

Sonia:" Akira-kun. Meet me in the student council room!"

Ren:" What'd you do this time Aki?"

Akira:" Who knows? Wish me luck, baby bro."

At the student council room.*

Akira:" What's up Sonia?"

Sonia:" I appreciate your nonchalance, but I need you to go to the Occult Research club it's extremely important."

Akira:" Couldn't you tell me that over the speaker?"

Sonia:" No I'm afraid not."

Akira:" Good point, it'll be pretty troublesome and might even interrupt your devil plans."

Sonia was shocked that Akira knew their secret before she could do something Akira just dips out and runs to the ORC building.

I quick travel to the ORC building and I open the doors, what I see is unexpected, to say the least.*

I see everyone in the ORC club and 15 other people.

The "Leader" was a tall man with short blonde hair he was wearing a burgundy blazer with gold embroidery on the right a pair of matching pants, and black dress shoes. Underneath his open blazer is a white dress shirt that is not fully buttoned, allowing a slight view of his chest and 14 other people. Akira honestly wouldn't remember them.

Akira:" Who's this douche?"

Rias:" This douche is Riser Pheonix."

Akira looks shocked. "Ah so this is the Douche-bird you were telling me about yesterday."

Rias:" That's right he's unfortunately my Fiancè."

Riser:" Hey watch your tongue, you Lowely human! Why is a mere human in here with us?"

Rias:" He's a member of the club, and I had requested his presence here."

Akira:" Human huh? Damn it, I wish he didn't know that."

Riser:" Like I said, I'm a part of the Phoenix clan, but you're just a lowley human and you should be respectful to me."

Akira: Uh yeah, I'm sorry Birdbrain-Dono, how could I ever make it up to you?" Akira had gotten on his knees and started to fake cry.

Akira had heard some snickers from Rias and Issei.

Riser:" You Dare mock me!? I can burn you to ashes before you can even realize it."

Akira:" Of course not Birdbrain-dono, I'd never mock you, after all, you're a full-blooded devil as opposed to me I'm just a Human."

Riser was starting to get pissed off, and Riser had gone to punch Akira however, in an instant, Akira was covered in blue flames and Riser's punch had been reflected and struck Riser back in the face.

Riser:" What the? How'd you do that? Bah, that doesn't matter I'll burn you to ashes!"

Riser launches a fireball at Akira however when it "strikes" him a silhouette forms in front of Akira it's of a tall man holding a torch When the smoke clears Akira is unscathed and he still had that cocky smirk from before.

Riser:" How? How is that possible?!"

Akira:" Is that all? And you call yourself a phoenix? I'm sure they're insulted by the mere thought of you donning the name."

Phoenix:" His flames don't compare to mine."

Riser:" What did you say?! What would you know about the Phoenix clan you're just a Human?!"

Akira gets tired of Riser's arrogance and summons the ultimate persona of the death arcana. A small cute girl appears in front of Akira everyone (except Akira) feels a tidal wave of fear. Riser and his group had started to shake in fear.

Rias:" A-Akira, p-please put that thing away. I'm begging you."

Riser tries to put on a mask of someone who isn't scared and he's barely able to stop his legs from shaking.

Riser:" I challenge you to a rating game, and I'll give you ten days to train."

Before anyone could say something they all leave, leaving the members of the ORC club alone, and Alice disappears.

Akira:" I'm sorry Rias, that was probably my fault, getting you in that Ratings game."

Rias:" Oh that, well that rating game is a pain, but it might be worth it just to see how angry he was."

Metanav:" The wall is broken. You can now enter the palace."

Koneko:" Did anyone else hear something?"

Issei:" Yeah, something about a palace I think?"

Akira:" I didn't hear anything. Rias can I speak with you privately after this?"

Rias:" Sure let's go."

Rias:" We should tell the rest of the club about that palace."

Akira:"…I want to tell them about the palace too, however, I want to test the waters so to speak."

Rias:" Test the waters? About what?"

Akira:" Well I don't know how similar devil powers are to the powers of a persona, so I want to make sure that they are, so as not to risk everyone's lives."

Rias:" Okay let's go into the Palace."

Akira grabs Rias's hand before she can touch the screen.

Akira:" What do you think you're doing? Palaces are extremely dangerous, I need to get my old armor and weapons before we go inside. We'll go inside tomorrow."

Rias:" Tomorrow? But we only have 10 days."

Akira:" It's either we die in the palace or we wait an extra day, besides we should be fine."

Rias:"…Alright…I'll trust you, you're the expert about the metaverse tomorrow. After school, we'll go inside the palace alright?"

Akira:" Of course, we will I promise you."

After that, the day went on like normal, and the next day arrived, and it was pretty boring, it had felt as the same as every other day, when the school day had ended I went to the ORC club with Rias and went inside the palace.
